[Essential Phone Accessories] tech_head:
I bought it.

It actually isn't cheap feeling.

Soft touch.

Pretty heavy.

Secures on the phone pretty well.

Looks like it will protect the phone in a drop.

It does add bulk.

The flip down for the camera is pretty cool.

The opening on the back for the camera is large since the case is so deep.

The fingerprint sensor hole is also large because they made it to clear the camera opening without leaving a small piece of TPU inside.

Overall I like it for the ~$10 I paid.

It is either this or naked.
[Essential Phone Accessories] ryaleon87:
I bought it as well.

Doesn't feel cheap to me.

Adds a decent amount of bulk to the phone but not too much.

The flip down feels pretty sturdy and hopefully it won't loosen over time.

It has a nice feel to it. Soft but not slick. Sort of rubberized.

I've been using the first Tudia case that came out for this phone for awhile now and it's fine most of the time. But when I do use the 360 lens it is a hassle. Having to peel the case off. Hopefully this fixes that problem.
[Essential Phone Accessories] tech_head:
I tried it yesterday and the flip down works fine.

It's a bit stiff to latch and unlatch, but it does solve the 360 camera issue.

No more case removal! It also means that those screen protectors that glue around the edges will bel see likely to lift.

I still haven't decided if I want to use LOCA to attach a screen protector to my phone.

I tried but I don't know how to factory reset using stock recovery. The only options available on stock recovery are "Download latest version and recovery", "Reboot" and "Shutdown".

"Download latest version and recovery" only gets me "Getting package info failed"
[Honor 8 Lite Questions & Answers] diegofl1:
Could you be more specific? I tried the dload method with and sdcard since I started the thread, but I still get the same error after 5%. I suspect that the phone is still trying to install the dload file on the internal memory and not the one on the sd card.

yes i know about lg key plus app but i want to do it without any extra software on my v30. please share your way of achieving this in an unrooted phone. 10x
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
How: remap the shortcut key (volume up) to open led light (flashlight) WITHOUT an app

Shortcut key? What shortcut key are you talking about, where?

If you mean hardware button... Can't be done without either extra software (an app) or with root, which also actually requires an app or features in a ROM.

If you mean some kind of shortcut key on your locked screen for flashlight, there's already one available. See the flashlight/torch over on the right by the bluetooth?

Next time please open a regular thread, not this silly Q&A format that requires a browser to answer. ;)
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] rhplusa10:
There is an app for LG devices.

Volume down button sticks to open camera.

I changed volum up as flashlight.

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] victorbayas:
Hi, I was so happy with my Mi A1 but after one month and days of use I noticed yesterday (before updating to Oreo) that the status bar icons got stuck when I slide the notification center, now on Oreo I can't see it but when I put a gray picture at full screen it became a more visible.

View attachment 4376698

I've ran a burn in fix tool for one hour it fixed the issue but it reappeared minutes later of using the phone.

PD: I have the Tianma display and I've always had the brightness set to Auto.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] birdie:
What's your panel type? (Dial *#*#6484#*#* -> Tap Version Information -> scroll down a little bit to LCD).

Do you use your phone at a maximum brightness/in direct sunlight often?

I'm asking because I cannot observe anything like that.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] antonioli84:
My friend has the Gold version, made in China with the Tianma display and same problem. It's crazy. I have a phone with AMOLED that has this but it took years to get something visible but yours and my friends took one month and it's complete noticeable.

My problem is that I bough one Gold version to my wife that is arriving this week and a Black version that will be coming this month, both made in China, and I don't know what will happen. I pray that they won't come with Tianma display at least.

Does anyone has this display and doesn't have this issue?

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] antonioli84:
It's important to know if other people with Tianma display have this issues. I'm verry worried.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] victorbayas:
If your brand new Mi A1 also got affected I think that we should reclaim a recall or at least a software update that constantly move the pixels on the status bar (like Pixel 2 XL and Lineage OS).
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] antonioli84:
Yes man. The first thing I'll look is the display manufacturer. The bad thing is that I think that Gold one will arrive this week (but I'm not sure because here in Brazil mail is a sh**) but the Black one only God knows when it'll arrive my home.

Interesting thing. I didn't know about the movement of status bar. Where can I find that thing on LineageOS?

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] ivomin:
Tianma panel - got it in the beginning of January and still no issues. I however was aware of those issues and try to minimize it as possible.... and lowering brightness won't do any good actually as it is not burn in from the backlight (which is actually side light) but from the pixels itself....

They're probably on back order because they're $300 off as well. They were when I got mine anyway

[Mogul, XV6800 General] dwertz:
Mine was doing the same thing and I looked all over and found in ppcgeeks that several people found that advanced configuration was the cause. You have to do a hard reset. I unistalled it and did a hard reset and installed all the same programs except that and bam the issue was fixed. What a pitty because I praise Schaps Advanced configuration. It makes it a lot easier to change settings. I am not sure of the exact issue or if it has been fixed but not installing it fixed my issue.

I cant find the link that I read before, but here is a link that states it too. Do a backup of your phonedo a hard reset install all the apps but Advanced Config and see if it helps. Worst case restore the backup.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Brendanmday:
The pixel 2 and pixel 2 XL have already been discounted ($100-150+) heavily only weeks later after those who just recently recieved their preorders. Anyone else think that Google should show some loyalty to those who pre-ordered the phone months in advance by offering them the discount??? :confused:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] oneandroidnut:
Where can you get $150 off?? I purchased through Google store for $75 off xl

On the Canadian Google store the pixel 2 XL is currently 150$ off with a free home mini
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] KHANrad_SIN:
Yes I was pretty upset about that. Over here in the states just a few weeks after the pre-orders they offered a $100 gift card to the google store AND a free google home mini when you purchase the Pixel 2/2XL. They then later changed it a couple weeks after that to $75 off the Pixel 2/2XL plus a free google home mini. What the hell google. Those that pre-ordered should be at least offered that $100 google store credit.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] PhoenixPath:
I cannot comprehend how this would be a surprise to anyone. A few short months after any new device released, it gets bogos and other discounts like crazy. This isn't new or surprising. It has been like this for years.

Complaining about it after you decided the device was worth full-price to you (by buying it at that price) just seems incredibly cheap and shallow to me.

Of course, on the other hand, if you bought it within the return window of this deal, there is nothing at all wrong with returning it and buying it on the discount. That's just being smart with your money.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] beezar:
What did you expect they would do for the holidays? You should expect the possibility that the price would be reduced then when you pre-ordered it. Much like so many other things sold during the holidays.

I'm kind of surprised that someone willing to pay $1,000.00 to be one of the first to get a device, would get miffed missing a $100 discount offered to buyers that waited a few months

I know $100 is $100, but anyone willing to drop more for a phone than most people pay for a pretty nice laptop, seems like they have a little disposable income.
