It's a mystery to me, how some people still don't know that magnets and phones don't go along ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Nebell:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Nebell:
The phone works fine, it's only the Spen which is not working well.

Besides, there are already magnets in phone speakers.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Nebell:
I've read that magnets won't damage the phone, unless it's a really strong magnet like a MRI scanner. I won't be coming near any of those anytime soon.

The only thing that would be temporarily affected is the compass, which I don't use, and Spen in this case, which I use rarely.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Gizmoe:
Doh! Just breezed right over that. That's a pretty crazy case.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] WaxysDargle:
just about every folding case on amazon has a magnet in it that will affect the spen usage.

[Lenovo K6 / K6 Power / K6 Note Questions & Answers] BlazeMike:
Hi All!

I own a Lenovo K6 Power as you can already tell,

in which the Data functions were working without any issues.

A few months back I started using 2 sims instead of 1. Since one carrier had faster internet and better connectivity than the 1st.

Still using the 1st SIM for calling and 2nd SIM for data. Occasionally I would switch to the 1st SIM for data when my data pack was over for the 2nd SIM etc...

So one fine day, I was switching back to SIM 2 (Sim I use for data) (Normally when you switch SIMs both deactivate and reactivate with new settings ie SIM 2 for Data).

So while this was happening like usual it took a few seconds to switch SIMs in the midst of this I suddenly got a call...

Which I was unable to answer till the buffering animation left my screen.

When that did get over... Both my SIMS were set to EDGE 2.5 g when they were always recognised as HSPA 3G and 4G LTE for SIM 1 and SIM 2 respectively.

Now I am unable to attain the speeds I used to, it is just barely usable now...

I then tried the usual troubleshooting (Airplane Mode on/off, Deactivating / Reactivating SIMs, Swapping SIMs physically from their slots and Finally Rebooting...)

Now when I recently tried doing the same my 2nd SIM which I usually use for Data appears as SIM Card Not Ready...

However, when I individually insert SIM 2 it is read by the phone

But still, whether I individually insert the SIMs or together the phone recognises both the SIM cards as 2.5g EDGE.

They used to be HSPA 3G and 4G LTE.

But now I can't use Data on my phone which is the major problem...

Please Help

hello XDA users

i have REDMI NOTE 4X with Unlocked bootloader and rooted Miui rom ( XIAOMI. EU ROM ),

i love this ROM it's very smooth and battery friendly,

but i just need one thing, i wanna install dolby atmos or viper4android, and i need my SELINUX to be set Permissive permanently

please i search a lot of threads but didn't find yet the best way to make it Permissive Permanently, please give me the best way to fix that thing !

thanks again
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Boomshiva:
Well that doesn't seems the whole truth to me . :silly:

1)Anyways if u have magisk installed then flash the below zip and it will set selinux to permissive .

2)Also there is a terminal method to do that ,but it is not permanent so I m not writing it here .

3)Also there are ROMs like AICP that gives you the option to change selinux mode .

4) Also tere is an app available called as "selinux mode changer " which should also do the work (not tested by me tho ;))

5) Also u can use kernel aduitor to change mode

"0"= permissive

"1"= enforcing

U will find the selinux thing under TOOLS>build prop editor in kenrl aduitor .

Hope this is enough for now .thank you

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Byte_76:
I would like to buy the Note 8 in Deep Sea Blue with dual sim.

I have not been able to find an Exynos Duos variant in deep sea blue but the N9500 SD variant is available with up to 256GB of storage. (On ebay)

I'm not concerned about bootloader unlock or root but I do care about performace.

I have used an N950F and found it to be buttery smooth with no noticeable lag. So, how different is the Exynos variant compared to the SD835 variant with regards to UI performance and muktitasking?

Does the SD variant become sluggish over time due to poor optimization?

Why does the Note 8 with SD835 score lower in benchmarks than the Exynos 8895? Has it been underclocked and if so, can this be changed without root?

Aside from bootloader unlock and root, what are the positives and negatives of each variant? Is there anything else that would be noticeable? (At least the Google cam should work a little better as it has better compatibility with the Qualcomm ISP.)

Should I stop worrying and just go for the N9500?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Gizmoe:
I have the tmobile us version. I absolutely love this device. It does not overheat or lag. The battery is more than enough for me and the screen is amazing. The SD is not messed with, it just doesn't bench quite as high as the exynos. The snapdragon is definitely up to any task the note 8 throws at it though. I dont think you would be displeased by the performance of either variant. I say just go for the n9500. Especially if you are ok keeping it locked. I've stayed stock uprooted on mine and I enjoy the experience. I would not root for a single reason myself.

Hi folks

[Huawei Watch] Xendetor:
Wating for it
[Huawei Watch] TheSt33v:
The "wear 2.8" that everyone is talking about is an update to the Android Wear app. It will not come in the form of a firmware update. And yes, some HW 1st gen users have already got it. I did the update manually on mine because I didn't feel like waiting.
[Huawei Watch] pczwiebel:
How do you forced the update. I have installed the apk on my Phone, but I can´t do this on the watch.
[Huawei Watch] TheSt33v:
1. Get ADB working on your watch.

2. Download the latest watch version of the Android Wear app: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl...id-wear-2-8-0-182596874-android-apk-download/

3. adb install -r [path to apk file]

[Xiaomi Mi 5s Plus Questions & Answers] Lk2:
Hi all!

I was trying to upgrade my Linage to one of the latest builds and I got the Error 7, assert failed when checking the modem timestamp.

I was reading here and the proposed solution is to install an official MIUI ROM, to get the firmware upgraded, and then reinstall Lineage, but I also read that it is possible to flash only the radio from TWRP, keeping my away from wiping my mobile.

Is it really possible? Where are the links? I tried myself to find out the way to download and flash only the radio firmware but I didn't find anything.

Thank you in advance!

OR

http://www.mediafire.com/file/a2eqra3fpzxpy88/recovery.img

Pre-setup:

You will need:

Universal ADB drivers

MTK Droid Root & Tools

SP Flash Tool

MediaTek PreLoader USB VCOM: I used this method from Hovatek which works on Windows 7 x64 but I can't vouch for other OS/architectures

Setup Instructions:

1. Install the Universal ADB drivers.

2. With your phone turned on, connect your phone via USB. USB debugging must be enabled and the phone must be connected as Camera (PTP) for any tools to access it.

3. Use MTK Droid Root & Tools to generate a scatter file.

4. Disconnect the USB cable. Turn your phone off and remove the battery. Reconnect the USB cable, keeping the phone turned off.

5. Open SP Flash Tool. Optional but highly recommended: use the Readback tab to backup your current ROM. Root is NOT required for readback backup. Load the scatter file generated in step 3. The download agent should be MTK_AllInOne_DA.bin by default, select it if it isn't.

6. Browse and select the recovery.img if it isn't already. Make sure that ONLY the checkbox to the left of RECOVERY is checked! The dropdown menu should be set to "Download Only", select it if it isn't. Click Download and wait for a green check mark to appear. Now it's safe to disconnect the USB, put the battery back in, start the phone, and reconnect the USB.

7. The fastest way to get to recovery is to boot normally, then open adb and type and enter adb reboot recovery to reboot directly into recovery. Holding volume up + power from the off state works too. Volume down + power enters factory test mode which isn't very interesting.

Notes:

The bootloader is unlocked. It appears that there's no easy way for a non-root user to tell that though, fastboot oem commands will silently hang indefinitely, fastboot getvar all only returns partition names and sizes, stock recovery doesn't show lock status...

All images must be flashed. fastboot boot will silently hang on 'booting...' indefinitely.

fastboot flash can be used to flash boot.img but not recovery.img, some sort of permissions issue

End:

Let me know if I forgot something.

Hallo everyone, does someone has an solution for my problem.

Everytime I make and then end a phone call the s200 freezes and I have to soft-reset it.

It looks like a problem in the phone software.

When I get an incoming call and then end it then I have to wait for a minute and then finally the phone program closes.

When I try to close it myself it freezes just like when I made the call.

I haven't found anything in the forum section.

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] soralz:
So are the hissing issue gone?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Petty Palkovics:
I'm on the latest build. The hissing is for me gone (or so quiet I don't here it anymore. At about volume 1 or 2 you maybe be able to here some. But like I said, to quiet to notice and only when you play something without sound ) I think it got quiter, but still damn loud on max. I love it.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] gordito_gr:
Of course it's not "damn loud" anymore, it's significantly lower and not enough loud.

Does anyone know a way to being back the old audio output on headphones?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Petty Palkovics:
Maybe the build in equalizer could help you? You can easily access it through google play music settings..

Maybe its your phone? Or your headphones? When I'm on max I can literally use my headphones as speakers...
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] jonpagecr:
There is a new headphones audio menu with Oreo.

Configuration > Sound > headphones and audio effects.

There are some headphone presets, some are louder than others.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Petty Palkovics:
Maybe that to. Personally I didn't notice a big difference change those settings. It could also be your music player. SoundCloud for example can't be equalized through normal ways.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
Hissing is still there, maybe a tiny bit lower. Max volume is still "damn loud", my max comfortable listening level (without ear bleeding) is not more than 50%. I often listen at volume 1 or 2 (out of 30).
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Prabin813:
Both earphone volume and loud speaker volume have been reduced for me.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Petty Palkovics:
Well, personally, I think that the speaker sucks, quiet or loud. I never use it. I really bought the phone for its "rare" headphone jack, which since the latest update is wonderful. Maybe headphone hisses a little bit, maybe they cancelled the Oreo update ( I believe) and maybe the speaker are horrible. But it's the best you can get with almost fully stock Android and a headphone jack.

Yes I wrote to much :rolleyes:
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] KB_Thailand:
Yes, I noticed this too... :(

I noticed this too as the volume that I used to play music at (about 60%) with my headphones was MUCH to soft after the update! Something definitely lowered the volume, though it SEEMS that it is more on headphones than the speaker. I have to go to max when on headphones to listen to music now. I say 'seems' because I don't use the speaker for much more than phone calls, and while it is quieter, it is not so quiet you cannot hear the conversation. It would be nice if there was a way to get the volume back, but I'm not going to hold my breath.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
Volume at max? Wow, what headphones do you use?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] KB_Thailand:
Xiaomi Mi In-Ear Headphones Pro HD that I got a deal on when I bought the A1. They are ok... not great, but ok for what I paid for them.

I've tried multiple headphones since the update, and the volume issue is true across the board with anything plugged into the headphone jack. I have NOT tried bluetooth headphones as I don't keep bluetooth enabled.

My wife's red A1, which is still on Nougat, is much louder than my A1 on Oreo, update 1. (still haven't gotten the latest one)

--KB
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] robgee789:
maybe they lowered to power of the DAC because everyone was moaning about a tiny hissing noise, the only way to stop it is to buy more powerful headphone or lower the DAC, now its quieter we cant have it both ways guys
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
I honestly can't imagine listening to any of my IEMs at max volume. I can't get comfortably over 50% while commuting (bus, train etc). In quiet environment my volume's somewhere between ~3% and 16%. I would accept further lowering of overall volume to remove the hissing noise in a blink of an eye (and hopefully I'll be able to do that with custom kernel) :)
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] KB_Thailand:
I've never noticed the hissing noise people talk about so much, but then, my ears are old so it may be that. :D Before the Oreo update, a tick over half was plenty loud. After, I had to raise it, a lot. Some songs require max, while most are ok at around 85-90%. So yeah, there was a huge reduction in sound volume on my phone with the update. At least, I THINK it was the update. I installed a Sony app to record sound. I've only owned one Sony phone, an Experia 3Z. The sound on that phone was horrible. Even at max volume, you could not hear it ring if it was in your pocket, and music was always not loud enough on headphones. I may uninstall that app and see if the volume level returns just to be sure it wasn't the app and not the update, but doubt the app would affect the whole system.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] fazloon88:
I feel that too that they reduced the volume for the audio out put via 3.5 mm jack.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Fredoslaw:
I got update today, and can't really tell if there is any difference in volume. I still use no more than 30-40% of volume (my head would explode with MAX), and there is still some hissing.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] KB_Thailand:
This applies to Oreo patch 1. Patch 2 arrived today but I have not installed it yet.:

I am not sure what I did (or what I did that made the difference) but I deleted the Sony app, then went into the settings on my music app and did some tweaking on the modes there, and the volume is now louder than it was. I can set the volume to about 55-60% now and it is loud enough. A few songs in my library still need higher settings, but I am assuming that is because they are pretty old, converted to .mp3 files from CD's (remember those?) way back in the late 1990s/early 2000s.

Bottom line: I am not sure that the update really hurt sound volume. It could have been a combo of app differences with the update. Still no hissing that I can hear.

Regards,

--KB

EDIT: I just did the new Oreo update (89MB) and the sound was different again. I went into my music app and changed the EQ to Flat and the sound was much better. I did not hear any hissing, even with classical music, but again, old ears may be the issue there. ;)
