I have never used cell unlocker.net so I can't comment on their service. Personally, I have always used the cheapest unlocker on eBay that had good feedback.

For unlocking bell phones, non-Bell customers with Bell phones have been able to use friends that are Bell customers to get the unlock code for free for non-iPhones. Same goes for bell iPhones except there is no code involved.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] grandpareza:
I've been reading as many Wiki's, Stickies, and threads and I've seen some questions similar to mine, but I think I'm justing missing something.

I updated to Dutty's 6.1 WWE with Radio PolarisRadio1.58.23.21. From DuttiesWiki I read in order to enable GPS you must download QuickGPS and run GPSTools. It worked. Thats no problem. The problem is when I do a soft reset it takes the phone ages to find a proper position, and sometimes it doesn't even work.

With google maps I've tried COM4 at 4800 and 57600 and everything in between. Is there anything that can make me get a position faster with more satalite connections? I get a maximum of 4 once connected, or even get a GOOD connection, seeing how it "times" out/doesn't even find a position. Before the update with the stock rom and radio, the GPS connected in seconds. But no so much anymore.

If this has been already asked and answered, kindly point the way.

Thanks in advance.

Just today I received my earphones but I have some troubles trying listen music with my moto z, when I conect it, the cellphone recognize it like a charger and ask me if I want only charge, transfer data, etc., I made some tests with spotify and power amp but the music only plays with the speaker not with the earphones, then I saw in developer settings an actived option "not enable audio @ USB", I turned off the option, restart my phone and made a second test with spotify, play music and power amp, this time the earphones deliver sound but after 5 seconds the music stops, I need to quit the earphones and connect it again but every time only plays during 5 seconds, someone knows how can I use it? any setting that I need to chage, activate, deactive...

Thank you

I believe it uses an non standard "analog" implementation of Type-C to 3.5mm headphone, thus it won't register. (HTC and Huawei did this as well)
[Moto Z Accessories] DaeKaz:
To be honest, the USB-C Standard is pretty messed up (it's so... not standard). Not only every producer has a different interpretation of this standard, also USB-c wasn't created with audio pins in mind. the USB Type-C Audio standard came up merely one year ago.

Funny enough, these headphones are compatible with a few Xiaomi phones that have USB-C (but not all, couple of models are not supported, especially with one with built-in mini-jack)
[Moto Z Accessories] Xorcia:
Does it not work when selecting 'audio source' in the developer options?
[Moto Z Accessories] Edmontonchef:
It would be nice if they had this stuff figured out before killing the 3.5mm jack hey?

We're left with expensive bluetooth earbuds that sound like **** and a dongle that's hard to replace and easy to lose.
[Moto Z Accessories] Xeroman0:
Its not that hard to replace (not super convenient, but also not unspeakably horrible)

This dongle works great, is inexpensive and arrives pretty quickly:

[Moto Z Accessories] jonshipman:
The issue is the USB DACs that OEMs are putting out but not making it compatible with generic drivers. Think of it like this: you can buy a Windows compatible USB sound card. This sound card is not available in macOS unless you have the drivers. However, there's no way for a user to add drivers (unless rooted) to an Android phone.

Xiaomi should have made their headphones work with standard drivers as well as their custom ones.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active Questions & Answers] bjoeg:
Sorry about title, but had a hard time to find something more catchy.

Half a year ago, I decided to import the S7 Active as my new phone.

My decision for the S7 active, was based upon my experience with a S7 from work.

Based on my requirements of actual buttons and ruggedized phone, only Samsung's XpressCover was available here in Europe. But XpressCover had an inferior screen resolution and CPU. And for the same price I could import a refurbished S7 Active.

However, did I shoot myself in the foot?

Mostly asking due to OTA updates.

I know S7 Active is a Samsung phone sold exclusively through AT&T, but I would believe/"have faith in" that customer would be able to change carrier and still be able to update the Android.

Right now I am on Android 7.0, June 1 patch (G891AUCU2BQF2), but from what I understand there are newer updates available?

Is there any Custom ROMs available for the S7 Active which would have regular OTA updates?

E.g like Lineage OS eventhough they do not support the S7 Active. It could be a bonus since since I could then get rid of the AT&T bloatware.

Last small question. Is AT&T faking their 4G coverage. Here in Europe I am always connected to a 4G network (4G data logo) on the phone even when it is connected to a 3G/UMTS signal (UMTS confirmed with apps and *#*#4636#*#* menu)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active Questions & Answers] staffeyx:
Unfortunately, OTA updates only work on ATT inside the US. There is a thread in this forum where you can find info on how to do manual updates:

https://xdaforums.com/s7-active/how-to/s7-active-sm-g891a-ota-updates-firmware-t3540866/page48

As far as I know, it is not possible to fix this with Custom ROM..

I have also noticed that it shows 4g even when I'm actually on 3g. Not sure why it does that.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active Questions & Answers] bjoeg:
Hey staffeyx thanks for your reply.

I found the link too later on, and yes verdict is, there will never be OTA updates, unless I get an AT&T subscription (actually been thinking of a prepaid/pay-as-you-go card and update by WiFi).

However in meantime, I have found an offline method for installing official updates.

This guy has all the updates https://cloud.mail.ru/public/BGy7/gKs4xzhRE/

I placed the updated on sdcard, rebooted into recovery mode and "Apply update from SD card"

Only downside is that it will wipe the entire phone too, so remember to backup data before. This might just be me too new/noob about android, but I thought such partial updates only would wipe phone if I selected "wipe data" after the update.
[Google Pixel 2 Accessories] spookyneo:
Hi guys,

I'm getting my Pixel 2 in few days and I'm currently looking at accessories on Amazon. I would like to get a dock/craddle to recharge overnight on my night stand. I don't believe I need fast charging/PD for that, since the Pixel will have all night to charge. Do you have any recommendations ? I can use my Google charger power brick if the dock doesn't come with one.

How much time does the Pixel 2 takes to charge anyway on fast and slow charge ?

Thanks,

Neo.
[Google Pixel 2 Accessories] krelvinaz:
I looked into cradles and to be honest they are way too limiting. In order to use them, you have to put the phone into a slot so that it charges, it is fixed and not very flexible.

Instead, I use a mount called a Clutchit and a regular power cable.

​

With it, I can just place it on the mount, in any orientation (portrait, landscape or anywhere inbetween). It just holds it and it is very easy to take and put it back on without worrying if I got it into the slot correctly. It will even hold a tablet.

I use it with a 6ft cable to an original Pixel 2 charger plug and chargers in Rapid mode.

No association with them other than I own several of these.

Hi,

Just installed rounded corners app from playstore..

It has completely changed the look of the device..

Also an additional edge light feature is there where the screen edge will flash if a notification comes[Only when screen is turned on].

[General Questions and Answers] slamtry:
Hi, I'm a (complete) newb to all this and very unskilled with cellphones generally, but one has to start somewhere. I have and use a Moto E second gen, aka Moto E LTE. It's an ATT version and though I have unlocked it to use on my own MNVO, it still has a bunch of ATT proprietary software on it. I was wondering whether it would be possible to somehow replace the operating system with the generic one that the original, unbranded Motorola version of the phone would have had on it. It is possible here that I'm using the term "operating system" inappropriately. I don't want to get rid of Android; it's the ATT stuff I want to get rid of.

However, that said, there is one change to the OS, I would like to be able to make. I have read online that when I upgraded from Kitkat to Lollipop, apparently the support for LTE band 12 was removed because the phone is not VOLTE-capable. Now I use an MVNO that uses T-Mobile's services, so it would be useful if I could get band 12 back. I realise that all of this will (for me, as a newb) be a long process, and I am expecting to learn a lot. If someone could start me off by telling me whether it is even possible to somehow de-ATT the phone, I would be grateful. If it is, then maybe someone could a) give me a rough idea of the process and b) point me at where I go to start learning how to do it.

None of the Oreo ROM are can be classified as Daily driver yet, there are bugs for which either you have to use some app or some mod have to applied. I'll suggest you to stick with a Nougat ROM for now, but if you are okay with the current bugs you can use it. I'll suggest AOSP ROM by alberto, AEX by iShubhamsingh, give it a try and see.

Note: By daily driver I meant no issues/lags with regards to call (including VoLTE), data, wifi, camera (photo & video recording), battery, no unknown reboot, and system stability

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Manan12:
I have a Lenovo z2 plus whose bootloader I recently unlocked, installed twrp, installed viper os (android - 7.1.2) and rooted it. whenever I try to use my phone (since the last evening) , the touch works for about 2 seconds and then stops working(every time) . I was thinking it might be a software/rom issue but when I close the Screen and before opening I keep my thumb at the portion near the front camera/speaker part pressed and then open the phone, then the touch works fine till I remove my thumb from there. When I remove my thumb, then again the touch stops working. Then to make the touch work for more than 2 sec again , I need to shut the screen off and do the thumb thing again. Due to this I'm thinking this might be a hardware issue but it were a hardware issue, then why does the touch stop working exactly about after 2 seconds without the thumb thing and touch starts working every time I open the screen with the thumb thing again till the time I remove it . And due to that timing thing it seems like it might be a software issue. All the other buttons are working perfectly. I really don't want the factory reset the phone till it's really necessary due to all the data and stuff. Can anyone please tell me what the problem is and how to fix it.

Thanks,

Press power button to put screen off

Hold phone in left hand and put left thumb on screen

Press power button to start screen

Touch with right hand fingers

It will work till left thumb is there on screen..

If touch is lost follow from step one

Atleast this helps alot instead of only 2-3secs stuff..
