[LG G Pad X 8.0 Questions & Answers] greenhows:
Can anyone help me find a working download of any version of the factory firmware for my LG Gpad X 8.0 (V521)? I tried to downgrade to Marshmallow and it failed and no longer boots. Called LG for advice and all they would do is offer to reflash it for $42 if I sent it to them. Very frustrated...

Note: this IS NOT a Q&A. This is a general thread that I am posting to share my setup of Magisk, that further improves the quality of life for us Nexus 5X users.

Also Note: this IS however, universal. Should you want to use this set up or any modules linked below, please go ahead. And thank the developers of these modules respectively.

I would have posted all of this in my signature, however, that breaks the length limit. So it's not possible.

Below are several modules that I use that make the phone better, NO MATTER THE ROM.

All the modules are simply being referred to the OP uploaded below. I don't want to break any rules, I just want to share the fun. The Magisk forum is a cluttered mess. Make sure you find the OP and thank them, I DID NOT MAKE THESE. All rights to those accountable. I don't want to break any rules, I just want to share the fun.

Without further ado, here is the list. *note: more will be added once I deem them good*

Adaptive round icon mask ?

Are you on stock 8.1?

Which systemless Xposed are you running (I think there are 2) and which Xposed modules? Do any of them enable the Pixel features we are missing?

As well as prevent voicemails from being left.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] edufur:
So I have a buddy who bought a Pixel 2 XL on verizon and he says he bought it "unlocked." He wants to sell it but I am on Google Fi. I thought I read somewhere that you can switch a verizon 2 XL to Fi but you wont be able to unlock the bootloader. Is this true? Has anyone successfully bought a used Verizon 2 XL and moved it to Fi and unlocked the bootloader for custom roms?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] gjkrisa:
Have you looked into Google credit?

I do believe that on xda there is a bounty for version pixel 2 xl to find flaws to un lock bootloader

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3602691

Looks like it's going to be awial
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] TheSt33v:
Yes, that is true. Bootloader unlock ability has nothing to do with the SIM that happens to be in there. If it were that easy, everyone who wanted bootloader unlock on Verizon would just have to swap out the SIM until it's unlocked and then swap back.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] TonikJDK:
No bootloader unlock. When VZ says unlocked they mean SIM unlocked. It will accept and use the FI SIM.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] edufur:
are there any efforts to be able to unlock them? and if so, would that put them in a similar state as Fi's phones? Where there is an easy command to unlock and relock?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Az Biker:
I would not expect any good news about locked Verizon devices getting unlocked.

Thankfully there are some talented devs willing to deal with the unlocked Google version.

Even with the unlocked Google version, many devs are not developing for it for several reasons.

So holding out hope for the locked version to get support is very likely a futile endeavor...

Hi All

Hoping someone can help.

I recently had to reset my phone and watch. I also had an update on the Galaxy Note 8 recently so not sure which of these is the issue.

Ever since then I can no longer get "some" apps on my watch. Apps like authenticator plus and London Live bus countdown are no longer in the list of apps to install in the Wear Play store icon.

Anyone come across something like this before? Has the Note 8 update screwed this up?

Many thanks in advance

it's a matter of personal preference. see the wm6 threads, if it looks interesting, go ahead & upgrade. no best rom in my opinion. using rom in my sig for a few weeks with no problem.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] DoubleThinker:
Maybe it's because many of applications haven't been adopted for Oreo yet, but I've tested a lot of apps - most of them fail to send local notifications. Maybe it has something to do with Mate 10 specifically. I don't have other Oreo devices unfortunately.

So, the story began from Tick-tick task manager. It works smooth on my Note 4, but I'm unable to make it work properly on Mate 10. I've set "ignore battery optimization" option for it, let it run in background and auto-launch, enabled priority notifications for it, blocked it in recent apps (the lock button), but with no luck - reminders just don't work. Then I tried a number of other task-managing apps (wunderlist, and others). Only one them worked (don't remember which one, really tested a lot). Found an app called "fake notifications" just to test the local notifications, set notification timeout for one minute, blocked the screen - no luck. Notifications only appear, if the apps are not closed after creating the notification.

Push notifications work properly (messengers, etc.). Looks like it has something to do with the local notifications specifically.

Some links:

https://github.com/zo0r/react-native-push-notification/issues/606

https://forum.unity.com/threads/local-notifications-on-android-8-0-oreo.497964/

Maybe, I sound a little unemotional... so... I need my task manager working! :D

Mate 10, ALP-L29 8.0.0.128(C185).
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] sonydesouza:
Very interesting. You're right. I have same issues.

Wondering if it's an Oreo problem in fact...
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] DoubleThinker:
It looks like all of the problems with notifications not popping/widgets not updating etc are just caused by aggresive optimisation in EMUI 8: https://xdaforums.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-huaweis-background-task-freezer-t3728298

So for, as I can see, there's no rootless solution.

Hello - I have recently moved to Spain and have a new Galaxy Note 8 (Verizon) phone from the US. I also brought a Nexus 5 (Google) and put a Vodafone ES chip in it to use here, and it worked perfectly from day 1. As the Note 8 is the better phone and I would rather carry it around with me I had hoped simply swapping chips would work, but it doesn't as the phone still looks to Verizon. Is there any way to get rid of the Verizon issue and have the phone work on the Vodafone ES network?

Thank you and apologies if my search missed seeing this addressed earlier!

Gary
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Limeybastard:
I believe you can flash your snapdragon device for the unlocked snapdragon ( USA generic non network specific note 8) USA version .

Don't think any Vodafone firmwares out there are going to be snapdragon compatible since the Note 8 sold in Spain is Exynos.

EDIT: first check your APN settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] RossTeagan:
What does your phone says when you insert a Spanish SIM?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] GaryRad:
The Verizon logo appears on startup and in Settings "About Phone" it shows i'm on the Vodafone network in settings but it doesn't pick up my ES phone number (actually shows no number under "My Phone Number") and won't actually connect to the cellular network. Wireless of course works fine.

The phone is an SM-N950U.

Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] GaryRad:
APN is set to "Verizon Internet" (VZWINTERNET), if I were to reset to default would it pick up a new APN from the Vodafone SIM? Actually "Reset to Default" (and "ADD") is grayed out and does nothing when pressed. I can Edit the name, and apparently Discard it from the screen it goes to when I tap on Verizon Internet.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Limeybastard:
I forgot exactly how to add APN settings but seems like you definitely need to change the APN settings to your local Spanish service provider APN settings first.

Since if I'm correct you are using a stock Verizon note 8 with a Spanish sim card. EG not roaming.

http://thecellguide.com/configure-apn-settings-galaxy-note8/
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] GaryRad:
I was hoping I could "ADD" a second setting in APN (per your link above) for Vodafone but ADD is grayed out and not accessible. I'll try popping in the Vodafone chip again and see what is and isn't possible and report back. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] GaryRad:
Done!

I'm not quite sure how or why, but armed with the correct APN data I went ahead and popped in my Vodafone Sim card and booted up the Note 8. It did show the Verizon logo and a message about the Sim not being a Verizon Sim but once fully booted it had the Vodafone APNs and was on the Vodafone 4G network! Only odd thing I can't seem to resolve is that in Settings/About Phone the phone number shows as "Unknown". I dialed a couple local numbers and the correct (Spain) phone number showed on their screens so the Unknown number is no big deal. Googled the issue and the steps shown to get it in there are not applicable for this phone.

Of course the cheapo LG Nexus 5 phone accepted the Verizon Sim and worked fine immediately!

Thanks!

Gary
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Limeybastard:
Glad it got sorted. Just out of curiosity, was there any particular reason why you chose a Verizon version to use in Spain? Or was it just the case of getting a better deal .

[General Questions and Answers] CyanogenUser007:
Hi all, one of my first posts here. I bought a Moto G 2nd (Brazilian) Edition recently, but I want to wipe the OS and put on the latest GB iteration on it. Any idea where I can find the stock ROMS for the Moto G 2nd edition? And what's the latest (best) way to root the Moto G 2nd edition? Sorry if these are rather fundamental questions but I'm a bit out of the loop with all this stuff.

TIA :)
[General Questions and Answers] CyanogenUser007:
Ok, so I've managed to find the stock ROMs. But I'm a bit confused about a few things:

1. I know downgrading can be a big no no, but what about flashing a ROM that is the same version? All I really want to do is replace the BR (Brazilian version) with the GB (Great Britain) version of firmware, is this easily achieved?

2. What's the best way to flash the moto? I always see a myriad of ways of flashing, either with CMD scripts or sometimes ready-to-use apps...just wondering whether or not there is a "standard go-to" way of flashing the moto?

Thanks in advance!
