I've only ever had new devices in the USA. However, with the Sprint carrier, they have that lease program where I never truly own the phone. It's just an extra payment a month, usually $30-$40 USD extra a month. And within a year I can upgrade to a new device. I DO have the choice to pay it off and own it, but I kind of like being able to upgrade constantly at the end of the year. If I paid full price for each phone I've been there, oh boy. It would have to be over $3K USD! :crying:

My first cell phone was an old brick type Nokia that once got hit by a car but still worked. I think I paid $50 for it originally. As for smartphones, I have bought Chinese phones for around $200 to $230(Canadian $) each. Jiayu g3, elephone p6000, umi plus e and Xiaomi redmi note 5. For the most part I have been pleased with performance/quality of these phones (not so much the elephone) but now I am hoping my redmi note 5 holds up for a long while cuz I just don't want to spend money in China any longer. From the treatment of the Uighur minority to the terrifying dystopian surveillance, I just can't justify buying anything from a place like that.

Hey man, don't worry; it happened to me three days before as well. Put it in some moisture-soaking environment (I've heard putting it in rice for 12 hours works), and follow the mega unbrick guide. Will work if you follow the steps correctly AND provided you don't have any hardware malfunctions.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] TNSMANI:
Water damage will result in hardware issues. So using the Unbrick guide most likely will not help you since it is meant for software issues.

The best you could do is stop booting and running the phone and dismantle it and clean all the parts meticulously, especially the contacts. Then dry the parts using a hair dryer for a considerable amount of time and when you are sure they are completely dry, assemble the phone and try to boot it. If you are lucky, it will work. If not, then you can try the Unbrick guide though I am not sure how that will help.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] MotasemBT:
what i found is the problem is not from water , its because im using unbrik tool for op3 not op3t .

Here is the solution:

Open Registry Editor on your desktop (Start/Run and type "regedit") and locate the key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services. Right-click on the value list

and choose New/DWORD value. Type the name "AllowLSP" and leave the value zero.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vnxperia18:
Hi everyone,

I have had a xperia Z3v purchased from Verizon for a few years now.

I remember the quality of the camera was excellent originally and I can't remember if it gradually got worse or if it happened suddenly. 1 year ago I went abroad and therefore cancelled my Verizon contract and removed the Verizon Sim card and purchased a 1 year contract with Three in the UK and used their sim. Could this have affected the camera quality?

Since I disconnected from Verizon and this is a verizon phone, it has not allowed me to update my phone. The android version is 5.1.1.

Whenever I go to system update, it states: Cannot Connect - Sorry we had trouble checking for system updates. This may be because your connection was interrupted. You can try again when you're connected to the Verizon 4G LTE Network."

I've tried to use the xperia companion app to install updates and it did not work. Does anyone have any advice? Can I restore my camera quality?
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brianthoang:
Hey guys so I just recently bought a Galaxy Tab S2 and I did everything that the thread told me to do when rooting it and flashing it to twrp.

I downloaded:

twrp 3.0.2-1 sm-t713

Odin3 v3 12.10.zip

Latest supersu

Did the flashing and it passed on odin,

Then I went into recovery mode and the TWRP logo popped up

Then after the logo pops up it just disapears and goes back to the battery charging logo.

Can anyone tell me what I did wrong? or is there a fix for this.

-Thanks

Edit:

I have the sm-t713 model

8 inch
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Svan987:
In Odin you need to uncheck in options "Auto Reboot" then flash TWRP in "AP". After flash you need to press "Home"+"Volume Down"+"Power" until the tablet shutdown. Keep pressing "Home"+"Power". Swich pressing "Volume Down" to "Volume Up". If you miss that part TWRP gonna be erased by the system.

[Xposed General] bogarty:
I think you mean the quick settings background. All of the Xposed modules that I used to used for this on previous versions of Android don't seem to work anymore. You can just download an app from the Play Store though called Material Notification Shade and set your own custom background image under the "Others" category. I also recommend, under "Themes" setting the panel theme to "Oreo" and the notification theme to "Colored". It also looks pretty sharp if you check the box by "Use Google Sans Font". Some of the other tweaks are fun to play around with too. Then, when you're done, just switch it on at the top of the app to see the changes you've made.

Hope this helps! :)

[Xposed General] Ibuprophen:
The reason for the compatibility and Parsing is because that app is only compatible for (and I quote from this apps Play Store details)..

"For all Android 5.0+ devices"

I'm not sure what's available for you that's the same as this app since I don't use it.

There's plenty of CyanogenMod 11 Themes on the Play Store that should be able to do this as well but, I haven't used CM11 in a long time.
