[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ifd444:
I have a similar but slightly different situation:

I prefer to disable WiFi and use mobile data all the time to save battery life (unless I need a lot of bandwidth for downloading apps or something) - normal mobile data plans in my country don't have data caps and you don't pay extra for using data.

So, with my phone on mobile data only, I have WhatsApp set to back up the data using either WiFi or mobile data. It invariably fails to do so every night around 4:20 am, "waiting for network" (don't know the exact English wording since my UI is not in that language).

The way I can reliably get WhatsApp to start backing up the data (that one time) is to momentarily disable mobile data and then re-enabling it. It's still a nuisance, though.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] costnerx:
Go into whatsapp settings. , Then click on ...

Chats,*

chats backup,*

Backup google drive.

Change to, only when I tap.

There should also be a back up attempting bar that you can close out to get rid of the notification message. If it's not there then exit and return to that settings screen to see if it shows back up.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Muurahainen:
That is not fixing the issue.

It only disables your atomatic backup.

What If I want backup to run without tapping?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlau4:
whatsapp needs google drive permissions

Had the same problem and have uncovered the root cause (for me anyway).

I was getting the "waiting for Wifi connection" to backup. I had auto-sync on, for weekly backup. And the notification would appear even if I was connected to wifi. Backup wasn't occurring. Annoying.

The problem was that whatsapp didn't have permission to write to my google account. But whatsapp didn't tell me this, it just gave the wifi error.

So you need to go to security settings on your google account, then see if whatapp has permission under "third party apps with account access".

In your phone, go to your whatsapp menu settings, chat backup and then press backup (i.e., now). Whatsapp will then ask for the appropriate permissions. It's weird that it doesn't ask for the permissions when attempting auto-backup.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nicolasdesouza:
This is quite old but I recently had the problem with "finished backup" and the only thing that worked out was going to notifications of the app in settings and turning off the backup notification category.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gary02468:
I just started having the same problem, fixed the same way. I immediately toggled the setting back on in the hope that the next time that notification comes up, they'll have fixed the bug.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quick6669:
I'm having this problem now (I get a notification about the backup and I want to get rid of it while still automatically backing up), but I do not have a backup notification category in the notifications section of my settings. Has anyone else faced this issue? I'm on android.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] massic80:
Hemmm wifi drains WAY less battery than mobile data (you have an access point next to you, not a phone cell at kilometers of distance). You should make the inverse when you have a Wifi.

Back in-topic, I just switched to Android 12 and I get the "Backup done" notification everyday
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quick6669:
Yes, that's what I'm getting. Sorry that this isn't an answer. Just felt that yours was more clear.

[HTC U Ultra Questions & Answers] pcdd2015:
Hey guys,

just got a HTC U Ultra and really like the phone besides the horrible addons. Is there a easy way to flash a stock rom without any provider modifications?

So far my phone is 100% stock meaning not rooted, no bootloader unlock or any other modifications have been made.

TIA
[HTC U Ultra Questions & Answers] madphone:
There seems to nothing based on AOSP for newer HTC Devices at all. I don't know if this is just becuase of little interest or there are technical reasons. Since the HTC Ultra shares some specs with the Pixel(XL) at least camera and stuff should work. But the second screen is a problem i guess.
[Mate 8 General] CoolMike:
Hi

About 2 years ago I bought my mate 8 on a business trip in Guangzhou/China. I loved the phone, I did not rebrand it, because I liked it to get faster updates and could live with most of the chinese textes. In two weeks I travel again to china and it's time for a new phone. Not because my mate 8 is not good enough anymore, I still love it, but my son want's a phone and I planed to give him mine and I buy a new one for my self as a christmas gift.

Unfortuantely it's hard to decide which phone should be my next daily driver. The following phones are on my list:

- Mate 10 or Mate 10 pro

- Mi Mix 2

- Oneplus 5t

Each of this phones have advantages and disadvantages. I like MIUI, therefore the Mi Mix 2 would be a good choice, but the camera is not so good. I like the stability of the Mate series, but EMUI is not really my favorit, but the camera seams to be very good. The Oneplus 5t has a nice UI as well and also the camera seams not to bad.

Which phone would you choose?

Mike
[Mate 8 General] Leo_83:
Mate 10 or V30 are the only real choices
[Mate 8 General] vervester:
Battery, battery, battery! screen size/resolution, update history, build quality, CPU/RAM, XDA support, price point.. probably in that order.

I'd never go backwards in terms of battery life. Everything else would then be considered.
[Mate 8 General] bergoulle:
HTC u11 plus.
[Mate 8 General] jbmc83:
mate 10 pro is best in battery, screen size and preinstalled software (oreo). however, it lacks a headphone jack and sd card slot and the 6" screen is actually smaller than the mate 8 due to different ratio (18:9 vs. 16:9). also, if the mate 8 is any indication, huaweis update policy is a bit lackluster...

mi mix 2 is king when it comes to small bezels, however screen size and battery capacity are not acceptable. no idea about miui, from what ive seen its quite similar to emui though. just hope that xiaomi is a bit better than huawei when it comes to android support of their phones.

OP5T would ne king in terms of pricing and xda dev support. however, since the OP left his mate 8 stock, this will probably not be a valued point in this regard...

out of the above, i would probably go for either mate 10 pro or OP5T. however, ive been eyeing the mi max 2 because of its humongous screen size and battery ;) lets see what 2018 will bring to the table, ill keep my mate 8 until then...
[Mate 8 General] gthebest:
LG V30!!
[Mate 8 General] p51d007:
I bought the Mate 9 about 3 months ago. The 8, replaced my 2....

I'll probably get the 10, about this time next year. (I sell them after I buy a new one).
[Mate 8 General] unbreakable1ali:
I was thinking about Xiaomi Mi Mix 1 not 2

SD 821 is still a beast , 6.4 inches in a 6 inch body is appealing , humongous battery , and I don't really care much about the camera , the only thing that worries me about the Mi Mix is the phone speaker which is impeded in the screen itself and has mixed reviews about it , some good some bad

Sorry for the bad English ...
[Mate 8 General] jbmc83:
i did it, made the plunge and got myself the mi max 2. not regretting it! already used to the huge phone size, the 6.44 inch screen is absolutely lovely and the battery life...insane. seriously.

i got lineage os 14.1 installed based on android 7.1.2 and my first battery charge is heading towards 24h sot (yep, you read correctly, thats twenty-four!!!! hours of screen on time :D) currently, im at 42% battery and already have 14h8min sot tucked under my belt... so thats around 24.4h sot for 100% charge :)
[Mate 8 General] Leo_83:
Booooooo we will miss you around here.

I was also going to upgrade my phone this fall but mostly because I dropped my Mate 8 in water last spring. Battery and screen took some damage but after replacing the battery it has been running like a charm.

I actually went so far as to having the Mate 10 in the hand before my gf stole it from me so now I will wait for next year's flagships. Very curious about OnePlus 6 hopefully with fingerprintscanner under the screen and Treble. Also the new line from Sony, who is finally getting a new design looks very interesting, the leaked renders with front facing speaker looked exactly what I am looking for.
[Mate 8 General] jbmc83:
yep, its definitely about time that sony trimmed their HUGE bezels around the screen :)

btw, also keep an eye out for the xiaomi mi max 3, it will follow the new 18:9 display ratio trend, but sporting thin bezels, 7 inch (!!!) screen diagonal and a whopping 5500 mAh battery. could very well be the perfect successor phone for us mate 8 lovers ;) plus, itll also sport upgrade performance with potential SD 630/660

[Google Pixel 2 Themes, Apps, and Mods] bumpaudio:
With the google launcher on the pixel 2: if you have a black wallpaper the theme turns black, if you have a lighter wallpaper the theme goes with white theme, i would like to see a live wallpaper that shifts from a light background durning the day and at night the live wallpaper goes dark, so this way i can see it in the sunlight but at night its soft black and easy on the eyes. I know other launchers give you these settings, but would really like to see this work with the google launcher. any one have a live wallpaper or mod that can make this happen with the google launcher.
[Google Pixel 2 Themes, Apps, and Mods] scandalousk:
This might work.

Create a folder and place a light and and dark wallpaper in there.

Download Muzei en set the source to the folder you created.

Set the refresh time to 12 hours or something. And you'll have a decent interval.
[Google Pixel 2 Themes, Apps, and Mods] PuffDaddy_d:

[Google Pixel 2 Themes, Apps, and Mods] MDW 100:
You could try "Material Islands" live wallpaper. It changes from light to dark throughout the day :)
[Google Pixel 2 Themes, Apps, and Mods] TENN3R:
If you are rooted there is a sort of trick.

There is an app called "Pixel Launcher Mods" (here), and when you turn on night light you can force the dark theme.

Then simply set auto night light at some time, for example in the evening, so it will auto-shift to night light and also dark theme without have to change wallpaper.

I find this very useful.
[Google Pixel 2 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Yorlik:
For those who aren't on root and like to use a live wallpaper that won't apply the dark theme, but still want it (like me), an okay, but sometimes jarring alternative is to set Invert Colors in the pulldown quick tiles and just manually turn it on when needed. It's not the best solution, but it's something.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Pr0Ankit:
Hello,

When I scroll down/left/right in my phone and hold my finger on display, the screen automatically shakes left and right or up and down (depending on how I was scrolling my device). This also occurs while charging and while moving an icon on home-screen. I had this issue previously with Asus Zenfone 3, Samsung Galaxy J7 and a HTC Desire (dont remember the exact model though) and a similar issue with iphone 6 (which was registering that my finger was moving on home button). Is this a software problem or hardware problem and how can I fix this ? I have read on web that many people are facing this issue on various phones. but couldnt find any solution yet. Is this my screen sensitivity/touch/display driver/ battery or something else ? If anyone could suggest something, would be really helpful.

Edit: Exactly the same issue as this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kxysauxJ5Yk&feature=youtu.be but mine shakes a bit less, still annoys me while playing 8 ball pool and other aiming games like angry birds, etc.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] LaughingCarrot:
There is an app which you can use to test your touch screen by drawing on it. You'll be able to see exactly what it's registering. From what I've seen it happens on a lot of phones with bad digitizers. Try to get a warranty replacement.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Pr0Ankit:
Hello,

Sorry for delay. I went to service centre and they said that it is normal because of smooth and silky touch and slight movement of fingers. I explained him that it occurs more while charging and he had to take my phone for inspection.

Here is the correct video : https://youtu.be/PmQ2lra4RXU

My hand didnt have tremors. I agree that human hands are not 100 % stable, however, none of my other phones do it. And if my hand is shaking, then it should shake also while the phone is not charging. When I unplug my device, it stops shaking (almost stops), but when I replug it, it starts to behave weird again when I am holding finger stable. Also, this shaking will move your aim pointer in gaming and it really is annoying while play games with pointer moving.

Is it really normal that your pointer moves while your finger is stable on screen ?

[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] hackslash:
For those who don't know, Substratum is an awesome application which takes advantage of RRO runtime in Android Nougat to theme your device. This guide will allow to use your favorite Substratum theme on your EMUI device.

Not all themes are supported. Themes that can run in Legacy mode i.e. supports vanilla Lineage OS will work absolutely fine. Also don't try to theme stock EMUI apps since they are not supported and can potentially cause bootloops.

So let's get started!

Prerequisites

You must have Substratum installed. So head to Play Store to download it.

Your device must be rooted using Magisk.

Instructions

We will first install 'Systemless Substratum Legacy ' module for Magisk. Visit this thread https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/module-systemless-substratum-legacy-t3623607 to download it.

Use Magisk Manager to install the zip and reboot OR reboot your device to TWRP and flash the zip file.

It is now time to download a theme. Now, I haven't tested a majority of themes available on Play Store. However, I am a fan of back lthemes and the Swift Black theme is perfect for my taste and in our case, works perfectly fine in legacy mode. You can visit this Play Store link to install it https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.brit.swiftblack.substratum&hl=en (it is a paid theme).

With everything installed, open Substratum, grant it root privileges and accept the legacy mode warning.

Select your theme. In my case it is Swift Dark. At the top is the dropdown selection menu which allows you to chose your running environent. Choose the option which reads like 'Android 7 Legacy', 'Nougat Legacy', 'Android 7 Lineage', 'Others', etc.

You will now be asked to select apps which you want to theme. Choose carefully only non -EMUI apps for example All Google Apps + other third party apps you've installed.

Build the overlays and reboot your device. If you followed the guide carefully, your device will successfully reboot with all the overlays you selected applied and their respective apps themed.

1. What is Karaoke Machine

Free Karaoke Machine is the first innovative Karaoke music player that transforms MTV on YouTube into an accompaniment to Karaoke and is completely free.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wikimediacom.karaok.youtube

2. Why Karaoke Machine

I am a learning singer, I want to learn to sing the latest pop songs, but I find it hard to find the latest accompaniment.

I am a singer, I want to perform classic tracks on the stage, but I find it hard to find those old songs accompaniment.

I am a music fan and I want to play some relaxing background music in the living room but I find it hard to get to my favorite tracks.

There's a lot of free music videos on YouTube, from far-flung songs to the hot albums of the quarter, from classic music to popular music.

So we developed this App, which removes (reduces) the vocals of the YouTube song and replays it as an accompaniment.

3. How to use Karaoke Machine

Very simple, open the App, search the web, find your favorite tracks, click "? Karaoke" to enter the style player mode.

Opened the Setting menu, "Vocal Cancel" turn on or off the human voice, "Pitch" adjust the playback pitch, "Speed" adjust the playback speed.
