[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Galaxo60:
I will tell you my story:

I bought a Mate 9 Pro last year couple of months after it was released. In short words, the finest phone I ever had: amazing camera, excellent battery, awesome display, was fast and smooth and even EMUI offers nice additions. Yes, it came with a few bloatware, but most of them can be uninstalled, which people is not saying.

I don't know why everybody is bashing at Huawei with the updates, I got monthly updates or at least every 1-2 months, during a little less than a year which I had the device. The Mate 8 just received Oreo, even when it has been more than 2 years since it release. For me, Huawei has the best updates and support by far, and they really improve the phone through updates and software.

I decided to buy a Pixel 2 XL a couple of weeks ago, and since I turned it on, I knew this was an overrated phone. The screen was really mediocre, it was blue like looking directly to the sky. The quality is good, but calibration was a shame. I have been using Super AMOLED screens for almost 4 years now(not in Samsung phones), and looking to this screen just made me sad.

After that, I just returned it, because of different software and hardware issues: bluetooth problems, Android Auto issues, slow fingerprint sensor, super slow charge (~3h), camera is good but is not something you can't achieve with another phone, compatibility problems with apps, blue shift, super crappy video quality, mediocre audio recording... overall I feel like this device is not offering enough for the price tag.

With this 5h1tty experience, I decided to move on and I was looking into the Mate 10 Pro and the U11+, but I decided to give a try to HTC because the first Android phone I had (~2011) was this brand, besides the fact I was curious because this model was supposed to be the Pixel 2 XL this year, but unfortunately Google decided to go with LG and their crappy quality control.

Overall, I feel this U11+ is like an improved Mate 9 Pro with Android stock, and I couldn't be happier with this device. Since I had it in hand and I turned it the first time, I knew this was a supreme quality product and every detail in this phone is just premium, and for the difference in price, I think you can't get anything better.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Megaromania:
I am wondering if you received a defective pixel 2.

I bought a mate 10 pro and i needed to be charged twice a day , most people said that thing lasts almost 2 days on 1 charge lol
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Megaromania:
Yeah i agree MKBHD's review was sad he missed so many points.

But again when paying 800 for a phone why wouldn't i get the pixel 2 xl?

Since i received the pixel 2 xl i have been really liking it, and the camera is really better than the mate 10 , the mate 10 applies the water painting effect alot of times .

There are few things that i miss from the mate 10 though,

MAPPING THE DAMN NAVIGATION KEY AND THE FLOATING DOCK!!!!!

and dark mode theme lol

If the mate 10 pro was 699 it would have undercut everything in its way
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Galaxo60:
I'm not saying not to get the Pixel 2 XL, but I think it has a lot of flaws in the day to day usage and there are out there other devices with no such a big compromises like the Pixel, starting with the screen.

By no means is a bad phone, I just think is overrated, and moreover, here in Europe we are talking about ~€950 while devices like the U11+ or the Mate 10 Pro you can get them easily at ~€700.

:good:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Megaromania:
Here in the US 799 for the mate and u can snag a new pixel off ebay for 750 to 850 for the 128 gb
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Reuben_skelz92:
You say that but the mate 10 pro has a lot more flaws in day to day usage. And the screen is fine
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Galaxo60:
Can't speak about the Mate 10 Pro because I don't have it, but having the Mate 9 Pro and the Pixel 2 XL, I can say there are a lot of annoying things in the Pixel that I never had in the Mate.

;)
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Reuben_skelz92:
I've got zero annoying things with mine lol
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Galaxo60:
I'm happy for you, but not all the people have the same levels of exigence in a product.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Korov:
I had the Mate 10 and the Pixel 2 XL. The Mate 10 camera can actually outperform the Pixel's in certain lighting conditions (night cityscapes), but generally the Pixel is superior and faster. The Mate also overexposes people in photos, and who wants to switch to manual mode for every portrait? My battery life also degraded quickly with the Mate and there were times it just became downright sluggish moving between apps. In the end, I stayed with the Pixel.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Touz604:
Don't buy Huawei phones if you want some kind of basic support (even if the phone is under warranty). After my 6P I'll never buy Huawei phones ever again. Google support is pretty great.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] galaxys:
The Pixel XL 2 is in a league of its own! I sold my 2 Huawei devices...
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] manishvy:
I am facing issue with Jio network. If i choose mobile data from Jio sim it works fine (in both sim1 and sim2 slots). However if i choose Mobile data from other sim (vodafone in my case) Jio sim doesnt work. As soon as i switch data from Jio to Vodafone i get warning popup that Volte will stopped working and after that Jio network goes to Emergwncy calls only.

Anyone else facing this issue? Is there any way to work Jio sim just for calls and use mobile data from other sim? Please advise.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] MobFreak2799:
Because Jio is 4G-only network, it doesn't have 3G or 2G network to fallback unlike Airtel and Vodafone(in your case)which has 3G and 2G so it can fallback if you switch data to other sim.

I have faced imei = 0 on 3 phones till date and hence I'm **** scared of it.

How to backup imei ?

I mean how to backup the following-

1. EFS partition

2. Modemst1 (imei 1)

3. Modemst2 (imei 2)

Also is there any solution as of now to imei=0 if there is no backup saved? Also will a twrp backup of all available partition help?(because it didn't help on OnePlus 2)
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] jdesignz:
Did you root?
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] gebcruz06:
I assume you flashed a custom ROM because I have experienced it too. I have IMEI = 0. If you find a solution, please do share. We need someone who will share us a working EFS partition.

Thanks and best regards,

Geb
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] ____Mdd:
I am new to this device but i know modemst1 and modemst2 is not IMEI thing and you cannot backup it, or it is not needed..

And also don't know if which partition is correct for backup of IMEI. But you can try restoring all partitions.

Have you tried flashing stock firmware ?

For your information, EFS contains backup of IMEI for individual devices, so why do you think someone will give you their IMEI ?

I have got this device before 2 days, i will see what i can do for you guys, but after 5th February.. Wait till, and try to flash stock...
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] gebcruz06:
I did. Tried so many times even with different versions of the stock firmware, to no avail. Thanks for your kind intention. Please share with us if you have found a way. thanks.
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] Sri Datta:
same problem here bro!!
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] Sri Datta:
i am able to see efs partition in twrp but wat to do to restore imei
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] Sri Datta:
I'm so happy I finally managed to restore my imei .I just flash validus rom 8.1 beta and imei was back
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] gebcruz06:
Which version/ build date of the validus rom? Thanks.
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] gebcruz06:
Thanks, bro

Doing this recovered my IMEI

Bro, I have recovered my IMEI by doing the following:

1. Install Validus-sanders-8.1.Beta.1.3-OFFICIAL-20180128-0506.zip

https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=818070582850488560

2. Make TWRP backup of your EFS partition

3. Re-flash stock ROM

4. Re-install TWRP and restore your EFS backup

Special thanks to [MENTION=7532843]Sri Datta[/MENTION], [MENTION=4453409]premaca[/MENTION] and GZOSP/ Validus devs
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] Sri Datta:
Bro r u an indian,if yes then despite restoration of imei jio sim won't work.also can u tell me which version of firmware is for Indian varient??
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] Sri Datta:
jio users must run these commands after flashing validus(run only if jio is not working,and run after 1st boot.)

fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

fastboot erase modemst1

fastboot erase modemst2

fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] Draaaven:
bro my SIM CARD its dead (i think i have the same problem you had) can you help me please ? i tried roms 7.1.2, 8.0, 8.1

also when i flash stock rom all comands works but ERASE CLOGO AND ERASE CUSTOMIZE FAILED and the phone restart but no sim card

i found a old backup and restored with twep now i have IMEI thank you so much!
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] gebcruz06:
Have you tried popping your sim in another phone? Please check imei, *#06#. If it is 0 then your phone will not be recognized by any network. Clogo and customize may show failure msg but it doesn't do anything. I suggest you try first the flashing of stock rom for your variant. Remove sim before flashing and pop it after 1st boot. Check your imei at once. If the above link I mentioned didn't work, try the latest lineage 15.1 build. It has updated rild libs. You can also get signal there and your imei. Once booted in it, reflash modem, clear modemst1 and modemst2, then reboot. Take an efs backup in twrp after.
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] Draaaven:
thanks my SIM worked perfect in other device and my IMEI was "0"

so i flashed stock 26.116-64 then restored efs from a old backup now all good :laugh::good:

As you can see it from the title, I can't charge over 95% using the original adapter. But I can charge it with my Mi 16000mah powerbank. Any ideas why? :confused:

I tried bunch of different roms. And the results are same. Recently I'm using the official Pixel Experience rom.

Rom mistake
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] tenbbs:
Been reading all of the relevant threads.

Installed the latest Android Studio / SDK tools.

Verizon Pixel XL, Android 7.1.2, Build NHG47N, June 5 2017 Security Patch.

Bootloader is locked.

Every time I attempt to do an OTA update over WiFi (To Oreo 8.0), it downloads successfully, and then fails.

A locked Bootloader on a Verizon Pixel XL is a showstopper for flashing ANY version of Android from a computer - Correct?

If a Pixel XL won't install an OTA update after downloading, there's nothing that can be done to correct it - Correct?

I am... in a dead end? Correct?

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] KittyRgnarok:
Side loading ota and beta/preview builds should still work/I think/ but you should probably just request an RMA cuz Google seems to like to throw money at replacing these phones when they can and I'm pretty sure OTA failure is something they cover

great ROM nice works.

But I am facing this issue:

When I call or when I recieve a call the UI is not popping up.

Hence I am not able to recieve the call only ringtone is rining.

When I call there is no UI, so I dont understand if the call is placed or not... but the call is placed.

---------- Post added at 07:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:59 PM ----------

I had a issue with phone in progress UI was not coming up.

To fix it :

Go to the phone app's 'App info', navigate to the bottom of the list to find 'Phone app'. Inside that option you'll find 'Configure Apps'. There set the 'Phone App' to 'Phone'.

This fixed the issue for me... hope it helps if someone faces same.

In Twrp it says

Full Selinux support is present.

MTP Enabled

unable to locate storage device.

Now i wiped everything, nothing in this phone. could someone please help me to mount the device to system or any way i can load the ROM zip files into device to install.

My device is LE2 X526.

Also accidently wiped my device by select system partition as well. Now which file system should i use? for 4 Partitions like Cache/Boot/System and Data? ext4 is recommended for LE2?

thanks for your help
