[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] RedSkull23:
Sadly, artificial light makes this camera bleed... on natural light everything is fine, but in my house for example, the camera works very blurry and without a focus, photos comes out kinda bad. Actually, stock camera apk on stock EMUI is the best that you can find around, since that at least it's synched with kernel sources... Third-party camera apps could never reach same results. Maybe try to write directly to Huawei CS (customer support) including your actual build number, in way that if they should read about this, they could provide a correction patch or at least make it better in next update released for your build.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] djisgod:
i have a vodafone uk g950f. i am trying to return it to stock so i can get the screen repaired after breaking it.

i downloaded what was supposed to be the vod uk firmware from samfirm and one from updato. both of these firmwares turned out to be listed wrong and were german.

is there a real uk VOD csc firmware out there? i am now downloading one from sammobil in the hope of it actually being the vodafone uk firmware.

my csc now reads VD2/VOD/VOD and i want to return it to VOD/VOD/VOD if anyone could link me to a verified uk VOD rom it would be very much appreciated as it takes so long to download firmware for it to turn out to be the wrong one.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] djisgod:

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] mimo2008:
Hi i got s8 from vodafone and flashed the latest xeu but a few months later started to get screen burn so I had to return phone back to shop but before i did had to flash vod again and I heard stories of people installing it then getting vod2 as csc.

Well I had to try so I went to sammobile firmware and looked for latest UK vod update downloaded that and once I did that checked settings and my phone was back to vod no German vod which was a stroke of luck.

Last night I lost 26% while sleeping. It's never been this bad except for the last few days. I did a factory reset and still no luck. According to device maintainance I don't see anything wrong. During my 7 hours of sleep.

Android system wasted 47mah

Device idle wasted 53mah

Cell standby wasted 59 mAh

And Android is 28%

That's 187 mAh lost over the 7 hours of sleep which resulted in 26% battery being lost. Is the phone not showing something? Am I missing something? If this is really the case that means my battery is around 1000mah capacity lol

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] HD2FORNICK:
So all of a sudden my fingerprint scanner stopped working after a recent software update. Now I don't know if it was merely a coincidence or it had something to do with it. I tried a lot of solutions like battery removal for 30 minutes, Resetting the device etc but nothing worked.

I finally performed a hard reset through recovery and it worked fine until I paired my phone with my car's BT. Then I added the car BT as a trusted device and THEN my fingerprint scanner bombed again. And now no matter what I do, it won't come back on and I am simply tired of doing a hard reset.

This is the only thing about this phone that is frustrating me a lot. Any solutions? Thanks!

Not sure what i need to do to get this running. I tried doing a full wipe and install, but i get the same /dev/block/... resource busy error. Sometimes i don't, but nothing gets installed.

And after this, it just boots back into recovery and my storage is unavailable until i do another full format in twrp. I went back to the previous version so i still had a phone to use until i can figure it out. Since this is an enforcing kernel (not sure if previous versions were), is there anything different i need to do in preparation for the install? permissions or format a different file system than EXT4?

Hey Guys. I think I'm a bit screwed.

So I followed the instruction on using OTA to flash the new Oreo update, and everything seemed to have run correctly. Upon boot after the flash the system began boot looping back into TWRP. In TWRP I noticed all of the file systems were listed as 0MB. I lost access to all of the backup I had since they were on the file system and I completely forgot to pull them off... yes, nice.

I tried wiping and finally was able to get the system to show free memory. So next I tried to flash the new Oreo zip via a side load, but am getting:

Now if I want to flash this rom, it fckd up something and keeps rebooting to twrp and showing no files. I have to use the other twrp oreo to get it to work ( and format my userdata via fastboot to get it to work).

Now If you didnt format your userdata yet, try flashing the other oreo recoveries. When I flashed one, of those worked and I was able to see my files and restore a backup. You have to try which one work for you
