[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Virgo_Guy:
Post OxygenOS 4.7.6 update, when "face unlock assistive lighting" turned on, in complete dark, OnePlus 5T can be unlocked with both eyes totally closed. How I noticed this? even when both eyes are closed ?...... In complete dark the screen becomes very bright to scan the face(one can feel it with both eyes closed in complete dark as the screen becomes pale/unbright suddenly signalling the screen being unlocked). And then moved away the phone to a distance where the phone no way can see the face. Saw the phone already being unlocked. Did it many times to see, every-time it showed the same result. Then I asked my friend to hold the phone in front of my face(with my eyes closed, in total dark) to verify. He clarified it unlocked even when my eyes were fully closed. Did repetitively, same result. I did check this with another OnePlus 5T that I have in my house, got same result. Also, I factory reset the phone, re-registered the face data and checked it a few more times only to get the same result everytime. This is to be noted that in well-lit environment face unlock doesn't work if both eyes are closed with the same settings. Lastly, I experimented it with 2 different friends of mine ,face unlocked with both eyes closed with one, didn't work with the other one. I request OnePlus 5T owners to check this on their own..... What it proves is that, anyone can unlock the phone when the actual owner is sleeping by holding the phone in front the face in dark. This is unsafe. Now is this an issue? I leave it to the users.

I posted this experience in other forums as well, got mixed reactions from users as some said it unlocked with both eyes completely closed like mine and some said it did not. For me, it works every-time in dark ,both eyes closed:confused:

Conditions:

(a) The environment has to be very dark or completely dark.

(b)Face unlock, Auto unlock when the screen is on & Face unlock assistive lighting has to be on in Face unlock settings.

(c) Phone should be 10 inches or more away from the face.

[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Virgo_Guy:
Yeah, but does not unlock in well lit environment if both eyes are closed.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] xocomaox:
I don't see this as a security flaw, since it's already established that face unlock is not a fully secure method of unlocking and not used for mobile payments or banking. It's just a shortcut. Just like a fingerprint can be used from a sleeping or dead person. Not safe. Pin/password is still the safest method to unlock a phone.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] techlogik:
It doesn't have a Samsung retina scanner...and it doesn't scan your eyeballs. Just the points of your face...
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] the Doctor:
Now, if the fingerprint scanner works in the dark with my eyes closed, then I'll be worried :eek::eek::D

Seriously, I can't get face unlock to work with my eyes closed on Oreo Beta, but I'm not that worried about it. Like has been said above, face unlock isn't the way to go if you're worried about security.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] hassan_1000:
I'm getting quite the opposite effect. I tried to do what the op is saying. So it's 2am, I'm in my bedroom pitch black. Try to unlock my phone with eyes closed but it doesn't work.

As soon as I open my eyes, it unlocks. Damn this face scanner is so fast and accurate!

---------- Post added at 02:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:22 AM ----------

One improvement I can say is that when assistive lighting is on, to still show notifications.

The notifications are white even with substratum themes so it shouldn't affect the assistive lighting much.

So in the night, when you wanna check your notifs but the phone puts the assistive light on instead and you have to press close.

Just skipping that close step really.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] wunderdrug:
I think the OnePlus's implementation of face unlock is flawed to begin with, and the fact that you are able to unlock with your eyes closed in the dark is the least of your problems. I've been able to unlock the phone using a picture taken with a camera phone and displayed on that phone's screen. Heed OnePlus's warning that face unlock should be used as a convenience and not as a security measure.

Flashed my phones factory image fine using the batch file in adb.

But now need to flash twrp, i knew how to do it with a cmd prompt but windows updated to 10 and it's now m!@#$% F*&^%#%$ power shell so fastboot doesn't work.

Went into settings and clicked off power shell to switch back to cmd prompt, doesn't work, stuck with power shell.

So any idea how i can flash my twrp again!

I got the same issue with BORETS ROM on zenfone 2 Z00A, any workaround?
[Android Head-Units] Scotsman828:
I recently bought a bluetooth steering wheel remote control in hopes it would work with my android HU since my truck does not have steering wheel controls.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Wireless-B...Control-Button-for-Android-AC908/263368511739

This particular BT Remote does not work with android HU's, my HU will not even recognize it. When I do a BT search it doesn't appear in the devices section. It connects to my phone and tablet easily, so that tells me that our android HUs are missing a BT profile that allow HID (human interface devices) to connect. Definitely not a limitation of android, the BT profiles were just left out. Unfortunitely I cannot root my Eonon with Android 7.1.2 to solve the problem.

I saw where Car Joying was selling a similar BT controller but it only works with Joying Launcher and a special BT App that I could not get to work on my Eonon.

So beware of these BT controllers for now, until either you can root your HU and install the BT HID profile or the manufactures start adding the profile into the ROMS.
[Android Head-Units] E-P-S:

Chinese law is very different than western law, especially when it comes to goods for export.

They actively and aggressively engage in what western law calls "anti-competitive" practices.

They do this by intentionally disabling devices that are sourced from someone besides themselves, by intentionally mislabelling things, and doing their best to lock you out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] cadorette:
Not necessarily an "issue" but a curious observation. At&t variant, unlocked it online, put Metro PCS on it. Everything works fine. Got a software update (like 480mb so thought it would be a good one) and it's changed some firmware things on the phone. For example, the boot up splash screen shows the metro pcs logo and not at&t, as well as my 4G LTE icon changed to the tmobile style. Im getting the wifi calling pushed to me now as well, T-mo style. The phone is completely stock out of the box, but weird that an OTA update would make these kinds of changes? Everything still works as it should, just a conversation topic as I'm curious how that happens.

[Elephone P9000 Questions & Answers] RoyaL1601:
Hey Guys,

so after having to replace my screen a cpl of months ago which worked fine (disregarding the trouble with MTK drivers and such), I now decided to replace the entire frame as the glass wasn't sitting on the frame properly and was only held in place by the transparent silicon case from Ele.

Well, now my power button doesn't work anymore. The screen lights up when I plug in the charging cable and displays charge % and the battery image.

Powering up with the button doesn't do anything. The ribbon cable and connections seem fine. Buttons click.

Unfortunately, I didn't film the entire process and I now realized, that I have one small metal plate left. 0.1 cm x 3 cm in size, very thin.

I suspect it's the reason the power button is no longer functional but I cannot seem to figure out where it belongs. I checked the disassembly movies on youtube but it does not show up anywhere.

If I recall correctly, it sort of fell out when plucking out the Screen.

Anybody got an idea?

Thanks

Edit: Ok found the position of the metal plates in some spanish video, they are part of the sim tray stabilization.

Problem remains. I am out of ideas.

CLOSED: Ribbon cable does indeed have a super small tear... ffs

Update 1/2/18 : Removed link until we get a Restore that works across all device's.

This will will help you restore back to a clean OS install using Twrp.

1.Download Files to your computer Unzip and place "Stock Restore 123017" Folder in a folder Named "TWRP".

2.Move TWRP folder you created and place them on your Phone's SD Card or Push them using adb command

adb push TWRP /TWRP

3. While in Twrp recovery click Restore and navigate to the back up folder.

4. Restore all and reboot. First boot will take a couple of mins so give it time.

This should bring you back up from the dead. :cool:

Edit:

If you accidentally flashed Twrp in the wrong slot then only restore boot using this back up.

This should Fix any wifi issues you may be having.

Hmmm that maybe why. I was running the latest update when I did the back up and Three branded phones haven't received the latest update yet. Looks like Three branded phones will have to wait for Official Images. Sorry guys :(

When restoring using TWRP, we're supposed to include the 'Vendor' options as well as part of the restoring process? I also restored in both slots.

I have a feeling I just made a very expensive mistake when I tried restoring - left out the 'Vendor' (bottom two) and now it's been on the booting animation for a good 30mins. Can't force shut off by holding the power button or using the vol dwn + pwr to get into download mode. Holding vol up+pwr will get me the 'Razer powered by Android' splash screen and then it just goes back into the animation.

Hey man, I ran into the same issue as you, so what I did was leave the usb plugged in and held down vol up+power till the phone's screen went black, then immediately held down the vol down button, this brought me into download mode, then I entered:

into adb and my phone went back into twrp.

Maybe i am wrong but in this zip file is a twrp boot image not a boot.img file ?
[Razer Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] BakaSenpai:
Hey, thanks for that suggestion! I was able to get into download mode and I flashed my phones own recovery and I got it to work. Wiped both a & b slot and restored both of them with my recovery.

The only problem (not so sure if it is an issue) is the backup I made is only of the Boot and System Image as per the TWRP instructions. So when I boot into slot a_ I get an error when I boot up 'There's an internal problem with your device. Contact your manufacturer for details.' Switching into slot b, I don't get that error. However, here's the weird thing (I think at least), when I go back into TWRP and switch to slot a, I get a bootloop into TWRP.: So, if I decide to continue on, and flash the TWRP zip file and then subsequently Magisk - I'll lose wifi and etc. :confused:

If I end up using Xshooter's full restore img - I'll do the same thing - wipe both slot a&b and restore both slots after. However, I'll get a message after the Razer splash screen say my phone is 'Corrupt' - and this is if I restore with the Vendor options. If I exclude the Vendor options, I'll be stuck in the animation. :( I lied - I'm stuck on the Corrupt screen now. I can get into TWRP at least...

So, in a bit of a bind here now. :eek:
