Same here, but I just noticed my news hasn't updated since 28/12. I'm going to try clearing app data and signing back in. FWIW, I noticed your articles are dated 19/1.

Update: After clearing app data and signing back in there are no news articles available.

Update 2: This is a xda server issue. There's a fix being worked on for the beta app, but unsure about the older app in the op. In any case it's not related to OOS.

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fabio.souza:
Hello everyone,

I love my Zenfone 2 Z00A, me and my girlfriend, both have one. I need help with both of them. We bought a car that comes with a multimedia sound system, witch in cludes a display that is both compatible with IOS and Android. My problem is that neither my Zenfone 2 Z00A running Lineage OS (last weekly build 27/01/18), nor my girlfriend´s Zenfone 2 Z00A running stock 6.0 android, can´t mirror our screen in the device. The audio system is a DD2026 Hansei model.

I´ll run the steps so that anyone can plz tell me what else can I try.

1 - Enable USB debugging in phone settings.

2 - Activate the mirroring function in the car display.

3 - Connect the USB cable

4 - My phone asks to permit the USB debugging, and I say yes.

5 - On the screen a message telling that the connection is starting gets a green arrow indicating that the conection happend.

6 - In the cellphone the app easyconnection opens automatically.

7 - The car display freezes in a screen that says "Please autorize the instalation of cellphone internet service in the cellphone". This message keeps blinking and nothing else happens.

What makes me mad is that I tried with my sister in law MOTO G4 and after the step 5 the screen in the car just changes to mirror her MOTO G4 screen. In her phone, the message indicated above do not blink while the connection is happening.

What can be happening that permits the conection between the car and the phone, but then don´t complete the connection? Anybody has a clue? I´ve been trying every change possible in settings and can´t make it work.

Please Help

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] TitoGuanovacoa:
Hi, I recently got to test another S8 from a friend that also got it, and while using it I noticed that the vibration motor was just stronger, as well as the haptic feedback with the pressure sentitive home button. On day to day use I hadn't noticed that the vibration motor had weakened, but when I tried a brand new S8 I recalled that my phone gave me the same strength of vibration on it's first days. I tried putting the vibration to the max in settings but it didn't get to the level of the new S8. Thoughts? I encourage you to go try a brand new S8 to see if this is something common among S8's.

Hi, found this screen protector on HTC europe shop. Bit exepnsive but is it worth it? I mean the screen protector provided byt HTC is really good. THey offer also a 5 pack for 31 euros.

What do you think guys?
[Touch GSM Accessories] hiroshi.rio:
It is not expensive. Brando has one screen protector for 10 dollars. Clarivue has 2 for 9,99 US$. So, 5 for 31 euros is cheap. ;)
[Touch GSM Accessories] katjie:
Thanx for letting me know. Then I'll buy the 5 pack as soon as I can.
[Touch GSM Accessories] Codeaction:
why would you want 5 screen protecters. you just can put one on your phone:cool:
[Touch GSM Accessories] TangerineTractor:
Go cheap

I bought a set of six really cheap ones on ebay for under 5 euros delivered, and they're excellent... I've had more expensive ones in the past for other devices, and these cheap ones are just as good. Search ebay for elf protectors - the seller is german.

It's all down to how you apply them, as with all screen savers. Even if they say they're removable and washable etc, if you don't get them right first time you're stuffed.

Secret is to get the screen clean first - I use stick tape to pull off all the dust and bits, then apply the protector from one end, using a credit card or something to press down behind it whilst installing.
[Touch GSM Accessories] Carty:
The screen protector that comes with HTC boxed in India is the worst! Its almost like a cello-tape on big size. Screwed my screen completely when removed. Then I had to use some shampoo for removing the sticky stains.

So carefull sticking..

Carty..

[Touch GSM Accessories] scorpion66:
HTC Orginal protective screen (not the free one they give you)

Just got 6 decent quality protectors for £3.00 inc carriage. Found them on ebay from a UK company - the ebay shop is E-Cell Global. They are miles better than one I got from Play.com, applied easily and I can honestly say they are invisible - i had to double check it was on it! Must be the best bargain ever.

PS: The reason I have been looking for new protectors is because I did a stupid thing with my new HTC Touch Enhanced. I put on the one supplied wth it and it looked rubbbish so i threw it away. After a few weeks use I saw a very small mark on the edge of the screen and lifted it up with my finger nail. Seems the touchpad / digitizer has a very thick plastic protector already on it fitted at the factory. Because I had lifted the edge it looked bad so I pulled the whole thing off. BAD move as the screen underneath it is very easy to damage and I got a few scratches on it before I fitted the new covers above. It now looks as good as new so I seem ot have got away with it.

Has anyone else removed this thick protector? In theory if you got a bad scratch on your screen you could pull this off and wack a new protector straight on fixing the screen for just a few quid.

[Touch GSM Accessories] enigma1nz:
Or.... a whole new digitizer for $10 Euro... I considered the prices of screen protectors and decided to skip placing one on my Touch altogether. I carry mine in the protective pouch and if or when it will get too scratched to look good, I'll just replace the touch screen.
[Touch GSM Accessories] hotrod101:
I also decided to skip using the screen protector. I keep mine in it's case all the time (except for when I am using it). I have gone through 2 screen protectors in 6 months - They scratch way too easily if there is even the slightest bit of debris on your finger and they smudge to easily as well. Now that I am not using the screen protector, the screen is clearer, Colours are more vibrant, sensitivity to touch is better and I can write with the stylus better.

Im unable to root my SM-950F With the current Firmware:

PDA/AP N950FXXU2BQL6

CSC N950FOXM2BQKG

MODEM/CP N950FXXU2BQKG

I had OEM unlock after 7 days, I was able to install twrp and boot in it, and installed magisk and all was "fine", but after the first reboot, at the top of the splash screen i have a red message "Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed" and i not able to boot or go to recovery, I had to reflash the stock firmware to boot the system again, now OEM unlock option gone again.

Is there any solution to this?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] sefrcoko:
You would have needed to toggle the oem switch once you flashed everything and booted up for first time. If you reboot without toggling at that point then you are put in 'jail'. Back to stock now for 7 days until the toggle reappears, and then you can do it all over. Read through the oem unlock thread for more info while you wait :)

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bozol:
Hello guys, I'm having a bit of a head-scratcher here. My G3 detects the sim card only after factory reset - any boot after that (whether it's rebooted by me or just the battery dies doesn't matter) and it says no sim card detected. I've tried holding the card down with my finger while booting as some people suggested, i've tried pushing a piece of paper over it to make better contact between the card and the contacts, but to no avail. What makes the least sense to me - It always works after a factory reset, just as long as You don't reboot the phone. The phone is not rooted, has stock rom, never been tampered with in any way. Any ideas how I can fix it?

Connect to your computer, restart to fastboot mode and use "fastboot oem lock". Make sure you have a stock recovery and ROM on it, because the locked bootloader will not boot anything else.

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Nidhoggur:
Hi, I'm new to Android modding and have been working my way through the resources here on XDA but need some help filling in the blanks.

My goal is to flash XZ Premium with unlocked bootloader with Storm's DRM fix/restore and Turbo's ROM.

DRM fix: https://xdaforums.com/xz-premium/development/hack-mod-sony-xperia-xz-premium-twrp-t3695171/page133

Turbo's ROM: https://xdaforums.com/xz-premium/development/sony-xz-premium-g8142-android-8-0-0-t3711928

My phone is model G8142 running 7.1.1 , build: 45.0.A.7.137.

So my understanding as of now is that Turbo's ROM installation process requires recovery mode which is not available on the stock software, and Xperifix patches the system with TWRP recovery mode. Therefore installing Xperifix is the first step I'm attempting although please correct me if this is not the first thing I should be doing.

I am currently stuck on Xperifix. I turn the phone off, hold volume up, and plug the phone in. The LED turns blue and the phone is now in fastboot mode. Xperifix still shows "error - no device connected" and cannot progress with the patching process. I have read that the issue is that the phone needs Android ADB drivers. I can confirm that the "android device" in windows device manager has a yellow exclamation point when the XZP is in fastboot mode. I have attempted installing drivers manually (google ADB drivers and the drivers from Sony), but the dialog always displays "could not find driver software for your device" when pointed at the ADB driver directories. I also have a "minimal adb and fastboot" command line tool but am not sure if that's useful for this process. As of yet have I have not been able to install new drivers for the device in fastboot mode or get Xperifix to detect the phone.

How should I proceed? Thanks, I will update this post as I progress.

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] gizm0luvsu:
So I have read tons of threads on changing the launcher not working. I just tried this and it worked flawlessly.

Here is how I have my Fire HD 10 (2017):

Fire os 5.6.00

I changed build.prop build no to 987654321 in order to stop ota but keep updating the amazon apps. ( works flawlessly )

installed root, busybox, xposed ( all working great)

set up kernel auditor to change my SELINUX to permissive on boot.

( I did not have launcher hijack on at all )

here is what i did to get it to work.

1. First install nova launcher as normal.

2. Connected to pc via adb and:

2a. adb shell

2b. su

3. then I ran this.

3.a pm enable com.teslacoilsw.launcher

you will see it say that the package has now been enabled

4. Then i ran this to disable fire launcher.

4.a pm disable com.amazon.firelauncher

you will then see that it says the new state is disabled

I hit the home button and poof it magically worked. I even rebooted and it worked directly after reboot as well. Home button works as it should and all the functions of the launcher work as well.

Hopefully this works for others.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] najoor:
Wow, I'm glad this worked for you but you seem to have taken the very very long way with too much effort to accomplish this! You could accomplish all of this very easily even without root by following this thread: https://xdaforums.com/amazon-fire/general/launcher-root-launcher-hijack-v2-t3561026
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] gizm0luvsu:
I do not think you understand what exactly this does. If you have used launcher hijack there is a flicker when you hit the home screen. Not sure if that is still there with v3 but i know for a fact that on my hd8 its still there. This actually replaces firelauncher completely with a new launcher. That flicker drove me nuts.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] najoor:
I know what that flicker is. The solution for that flicker (now that you are rooted) is simply this:

pm disable com.amazon.firelauncher

Which should be done only after Nova is up and running and selected as main launcher.

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] Broo:

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] DragonFire1024:
You should install Nova as a system app. Then you get the Google Now page without having to install another apk. If you are going to keep Fire Launcher, but leave it disabled, add this line to your build prop, at the very bottom:

ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1

This helps to keep your default launcher in memory for faster loading and performance.

Hi,

I followed these instructions but instead of disabling the AMZ launcher, I uninstalled it (pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.amazon.firelauncher) on a rooted HD 10 with Nova launcher installed as system app. Unfortunately, I have lost the home button functionality. Is there a work-around to this?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] DragonFire1024:
You have to go to the private app folder and manually reinstall fire launcher and reboot. Then uninstall Nova Launcher and reboot. Then boot into recovery and clear cache. Then reboot and install Nova Launcher as a system app then reboot. Then uninstall fire launcher. Just go to the private app folder and delete the folder with the contents inside of it and reboot. If none of that works, you'll have to flash stock firmware again and start over. You won't lose home button functionality so long as you install Nova Launcher first before uninstalling fire launcher.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] pocketrussian:
Thanks for the prompt reply! I tried to reinstall fire launcher as suggested (pm install -r /system/priv-app/com.amazon.firelauncher/com.amazon.firelauncher.apk) and even though it returns "Success", the launcher does not appear. I tried to enable and it also returns no error but no launcher. So I have to re-enable nova. I suspect that I may have removed a package needed by firelauncher in my debloating efforts.

Oh well, looks like I am stuck with Nova and no home button until I reflash system.img with fireflash and restart from scratch!
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] DragonFire1024:
Unfortunately that's the only way to fix it. Just remember if you're replacing an Amazon app with a Google or other app, you should always install them first. A lot less things break :P
