If no, have you received this update. can you copy it before installing it.

[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] zswielder:
HI,

I have 2 Essential phones. One with Beta 2 and the other on the stock ROM. I can't get mobile data to work on Beta 2 no matter what I try (I changed the network setting in the hidden menu, etc. Did everything). I saw some other people reporting a connection issue with Beta 2, but I don't know if anyone has any real fix. I also read somewhere that we shouldn't use the USB cable that came with the phone. Is this true? Could this be the cause? I'd appreciate any help.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] seabro01:
I haven't had any issues on beta 2 or 3. Did you try factory reset?

The included cable is just for charging. It's not spec compliant for data transfer. Some phones have been bricked using the cable and Essential won't honor the warranty.

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] sacredSatan:
tl;dr Does rooting void warranty of Mi A1? I googled but there are bunch of different answers, please help me find the right one. (Customer support says it will void warranty of any mi device)

So, after googling about if the warranty gets void if we root Mi A1, I saw a few different places had different opinions of people, and no clear answer. Thus I decided to call customer support, and the lady told me that I shouldn't unlock bootloader, and root my device. She said that any mi device, if you do that, your warranty gets void.

Now I am super confused, can you please guide me? My last device was a Moto X2 and the reason why I mention that is because in last month of warranty I went to the store and they refurbished the whole thing, changed the screen and everything. So I am not sure if I want to void my warranty.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] shailendra1993:
Can you unroot the phone after rooting - yes

Will they know that the phone was ever rooted - no

What's the hassle then.

Dude I have given phones with Custom ROM installed to the service centers, they never complain. In case your phone is rooted and you're somehow bricked the phone, just take it to them and behave like a novice, just tell them I updated, and now it got stuck.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] sacredSatan:
Haha, all right, I'll go ahead and do it.

However I'd still like to know what's Mi's stance over this, because the customer support lady said it will void for every Mi phone and iirc I've read that Mi allows people to root their phones.

Thanks again.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] mha93:
There was a multi user app that used to work but development stopped at 4.4.2 . Closest I guess would be to somehow enable multi user mode but that's not possible unless you root the phone.

We actually have that option here on note 8. I think ill just use this if
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] JaguarXT:
I don't think so for multi user login method without root. Even with multiple Google accounts there is still one only login without root.

For little kids there are few separate launcher type apps (from both Samsung and third-party devs that you have to download) that you, as the parent, have to setup and switch to for your child. Those child safe launchers allow your device to be somewhat safe from the child. By allowing you to choose the apps for the child and a lock that prevents the child from getting out of the launcher and prevents them from messing up your device. Though at a point the child will learn ways out of the launcher and/or flaws of the launcher to allow them to mess with the device. That is why I say it is for little kids. And the launchers don't protect your device from what the child can do with the apps themselves. It also doesn't protect your device from the child throwing or physically damaging the device. Basically it is not a nanny.You still have to watch the child with the device.

Samsung version is Kids Mode in the Galaxy Apps store or Google Play Store. And there are third-party apps in the Google Play store like Kid's Shell, Kids Place, Kidoz, Kidsworld, etc.

Also for kids and adults (again people can finds ways around them) Personal Launcher by Pramati. You are still sharing apps and the data within the shared apps. Like switching launchers on your device, but still have access to the same data on the same shared apps.

Samsung Secure Folder is a little secure launcher that you access within your own account. So to access the Secure Folder you have to be logged into your normal login. That is not the same as what you are looking for,

As a single user you can use password to log into your device. Which is much safer than other logging methods.

I do remember that Google was working on multi user login for Android. I don't know what happened to that. As parents it would make it easier than the child safe launchers.

Again your device must be rooted for this app that would do what you want: SwitchMe Multiple Accounts by Fahrbot. Again root only.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] myechophone:
Multiuser support not sure. But you can definitely add a password to access your phone on bootup
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] Highfiverobot:
So, I was following a rooting guide.

Things were going fine, until I needed to pull the patched_boot.img with the adb command:

adb pull /sdcard/MagiskManager/patched_boot.img

What I accidentally typed is:

adb /sdcard/MagiskManager/patched_boot.img

I continued following the guide, but when I got to the step where I need to enter the adb command:

fastboot flashboot file/path/patched_boot.img

I realized the file was never copied to my computer.

I tried to go back and install Magisk_Manager and repatch my boot image, but it failed since it now has a different boot image.

How can I fix this and properly root my Pixel 2 XL?

Thanks.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] robocuff:
I'm not sure I'm understanding this completely. If you typed the command you said you typed (without pull in it), the file wouldn't be copied to your PC. Then you typed fastboot flash boot /path to boot.img, you'd get an error message saying something to the effect file not found. Perhaps that's how you realized you didn't type the correct command to copy it to your PC? In any case, if this is what happened, you wouldn't have a different boot image because nothing has changed. The original patched boot image should still be on the phone. Have you tried pulling it to your PC and flashing it again? That's all you should have to do unless you deleted the original patched image.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] Highfiverobot:
Got it all figured out now, but will post what I did for anyone else who happens to see this thread:

>you'd get an error message saying something to the effect file not found. Perhaps that's how you realized you didn't type the correct command to copy it to your PC?

Correct and correct.

What I meant to say is that when I went to flash patched_boot.img, it didn't exist, and I was worried I wouldn't be able continue at all without it.

For whatever reason Magisk was unable to repatch my original boot.img, so what I did was to:

- reflash the original boot.img

- then go back into Magisk

- patch my boot.img again

- ACTUALLY adb pull the patch_boot.img this time

- boot into bootloader

- then finally flash patched_boot.img

After this, I was good to go.

Obviously, you probably know this, just leaving a paper trail for anyone that happens upon this thread.

[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] TLxda-d:
Hello. I have a Mi 6 I bought and received from GearBest about a week ago. It is the Chinese model with the latest Global ROM installed.

It didn't really do any problems so far, but a few hours ago I suddenly found it shut itself off (after earlier noticing the screen turned itself on even though no notification came). I don't remember if I tried turning it on with a long press first (so I can't tell whether it would have even worked), but when I connected it to the charger it turned itself on automatically. The battery was 90-something %, so I don't know what might have happened.

Any suggestions? If it happens again and it turns out I have to connect it to a charger in order to wake it up, that would be crap.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] Dobsgw:
If you get any more issues just send it right back to Gearbest and get a new one from them.

It sometimes happens that there is a fault and it needs to be fixed that's all

I've had my mi 6 on MIUI shut itself off once and only once.

On all custom ROMs it never did it so it was just an miui error.

If it happens again contact gear best and say yoy want to return it as faulty
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] TLxda-d:
Is it a known issue with MIUI? At least to some extent? I don't think I read of this as being a possible problem. Returning the phone is a bit of a hassle.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] Dobsgw:
Not a known one. Just possible that a small bug resulted in a shut down in your pocket.

Probably what happened to me.

Haven't seen it happen since.

I would say if it happens one or two more times you should return it.

You'll thank yourself 100x in the future if you do return it and get a fully working one.

You'll hate yourself if it packs up in the future and you've got a dead phone that you have to spend $300 replacing.

Gear best should be reasonable and since you had the phone for just a week they should see that it was a lemon and just sort it out for you.

They're a fairly big international supplier so I'm sure they have fairly good protocol for this.

The only sucky thing is you might be waiting a month to get a replacement due to shipping
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] TLxda-d:
Well, the phone in my case just was just lying on the desk so it was a button getting clicked by accident.

But I wonder whether I should wait and see if something happens again, or contact GearBest now. If I'll wait for another month and only then it starts with the issues again, the replacement period for faulty items will possibly be over.

On the other hand, I don't think they'll do anything other than offer me to send it back for replacement/refund if I contact them now, and the shipping is non-refundable as the phone wasn't DOA (the shipping refund is only applicable within 7 days of receiving the item).

Hi,

I was using a Google Camera app without any problems since I remembered on my Moto X Style.

Event after Nougat update it wasn't any problem.

Yesterday I made a full factory reset and I was suprised by the play store. There is no anymore possibility to install Google Camera from store!

It's not compatible with our device any more. It looks like before it was compatible. I was looked a app on apkmirror but all of them required android 7.1+ (since 4.2 version).

Version 4.1 doesn't looks like that I was using before (there is no hdr option there).

Is there anyone who still have a Google Camera app from play store on Moto X Style and can extract apk from device?
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AsquareX:

Just wait for OTA's don't follow tutorials like clearing cache and format to get updates faster, it does nothing good, the update will come when it's your turn. You know that the updates are released in batches to limit the server load, so for few people it may take months.

1. I was on December patch, while the Jan patch was released ages ago, I only got it yesterday. 2 Weeks ago, I tried clearing my Services Framework data and even reset the phone, it did not help, so they are all bogus, don't believe on them, just wait for sometime.

2. If you are stuck on very old patch like Aug, Sept them maybe something is wrong, I think Mi Forum has link to newer fastboot images, try those, here is a tutorial: https://xdaforums.com/mi-a1/how-to/ota-official-fastboot-image-n2g47h-7-12-t3728929

Also, I have heard cases like some people selling clones of Mi devices for cheap or some vendors install their tampered OS with the phones, please check if you have a real Mi A1 and with official OS.

For some reason I am unable to install any Modules.

The folder existed for me already and flashing manually did not work. Root access works fine however, I can use ABP, Titanium Backup, etc. just fine and Root Checker shows that I have Root properly installed. Here is what the log looks like.

[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] bazinga137:
In the official magisk thread:

"Some Motorolla devices' stock kernel ships with a flawed F2FS implementation. Change to a custom kernel with the fix or format data to ext4."

Basically Moto didn't do a good enough job with f2fs on our device, so magisk manager has trouble with mounting images. SU works, but modules can't install, and twrp flashed modules don't show up anywhere.

The only fix is installing a custom kernel with an f2fs fix, though too often I found custom kernels performed worse than stock.

Ah that's unfortunate, however a few modules can be flashed straight from twrp that I've tried already.
