Thanks.

Is the procedure 100% the same as Oreo (current procedure posted here)?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] firefds:
Yep
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] PeanutBR:
But what about the oem unlock?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] spawnlives:
Yes you still need to unlock the bootloader ( OEM )
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] PeanutBR:
Wich at least on mine is impossible :( I might be able to do it if I flash nougat
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] spawnlives:
I see you are on a s8 so unlocking the bootloader is possible. Reverting back to nougat is not possible due to bootloader version.

Since pie is not yet available for my region on one of my s8's I flashed UK ( BTU ) firmware followed by the pie update + the 2 update zips ( on Feb security patch ) had that done +TWRP + root in about 10 min.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] PeanutBR:

I tried creating a Nandroid backup (TWRP) and restoring just the data partition after update, but my WiFi doesn't turn on.

Does anyone know how I can resolve the issue? or do you know of a better way of backing up data before update so I dont have to go through my settings and apps all over again?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sami Jildeh:
Smart Switch maybe via PC.

Before i update to Pie, i backed up with smart switch and then update my phone.

I backed up everything.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] PeanutBR:
Is it rooted? If so, Titanium Backup
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] alireza_simkesh:
I tried Smart Switch. But it didn't backup fingerprint information, wallpaper, ringtone, and lots of other settings that you can change in the Settings menu.

It just restored my apps (not even their data, just the apps) and I had to create my Whatsapp account, Instagram account, etc all over again.

Yea that's a good option for user apps....Do you know how I can restore all the system settings using Titanium?

Ive updated last night. And boy what an update. Its really great. Love the new looks. Seems a lot smoother than oreo as for battery life I manage to extend my s8's screen time by an hour compared when i was still in oreo. To think that i updated plenty of apps after upgrading. We'll see if it holds after a few days of using. I'll post a s.s of my battery usage after a week. Ty so kuch samsung for this update
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] submin_:
After updating to Oreo, my S8 seems to have forgotten the ability to keep web pages (open tabs in Samsung Internet Browser and/or Chrome) in it's memory while multitasking. Before updating, I was able to leave some tabs open on the browser, and then when I took my phone from my pocket or opened the browser after using some other apps, the page I had left open would still be there. Now it always refreshes the page. I have disabled all battery saving options for Samsung browser and Chrome that I could find, but it won't help.

This is frustrating AF, since every time I switch to another app (for example Whatsapp), and then back to the browser, it loads everything from scratch...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] speedbirdengineer:
Use Firefox. It's the best
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] submin_:
Sry, not an option. I use some web apps provided by my work which don't work on ffox.

Thanks for your reply! I've checked, background use is allowed (it actually can't be turned off, the switch is disabled). This problem existed right after update + factory reset, I only went to tamper with the settings after I noticed the problem.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] alireza_simkesh:
No, actually with Titanium Backup I see that the second OTA updated about 30 system apps (including phone, messages, camera, etc). And my on-screen battery usage has decreased dramatically since the update.

I highly recommend the second OTA for April.

I forgot the words "custom rom" in the title sorry.

Is there a favored Android 7 custom rom for the n900s Q Adreno 330? (id say A8 but I doubt its too snappy.if even possible yet. But if so... please do.)

I currently have darklord v1 on here with 6.01. I know where are a few upgrades but is there a nice solid one with 7.0 and the A7 goodies-du-jour?

Suggestions? I you could please not skip whats obvious to you because it is yet to be obvious to me :)

btw, any benefit to changing my phone to internation from Korean? what? and how?

slightly offtopic: my note 4 went swimming withvout permission. its starts but doesnt charge the battery. and never kicks in after a bright pinkish screen Hopeless or screen and battery maybe? I live where I can get it fixed cheaply but dubious it is even worth the parts.

thanks very much.

I was pointing out as there are very few to no roms for that model you need to look at the development threads .
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] amune14:
Guys, Im confused

All of u cried that u want kernel sources, u making so many threads and begging Xiaomi for it, but when it was done, and sources out....

No threads about development, all devs working alone in hope that one of them will be first

Nice race, im tired, why we have broken twrp, and all we can do with it - install magisk

Always problems with mounting internal storage, error 7, error 255, error 1.(Last two i have, dont know about u guys).

Why we need to search a one of tonns of posts to find some noname that fixed some bug in recovery but with new bug in it.

Wtf is going on with this community, why some "unique" peoples try to make threads about "OH DOTOS YEAAAAHHHHH"

Or "LINEAGE YEAAAHHHH"

But we cant even install them, someone told that we can flash system.img through fastboot, but in .zip WHERE IS UR SYSTEM.IMG?

Just payload.bin, so unpack it and give us this system.img, or keep silent and try to fix twrp

So devs, if u all will work together and starting to fix twrp, u can fix ROM bugs much easier and faster with community help.

Well, ****

I'm done with this community and this race.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] majamee:
[MENTION=6632412]amune14[/MENTION] There is a thing with generalizations which is very dangerous, because you are basically just ranting. I didn't cry about kernel sources for example and I am trying to be active here anyways. Second of all the kernel sources which have been released lately are for Nougat and need some love, because if you think about it: Would you start a new custom rom development with 7.0, when 8.1 is the latest version of Android by now? And last, but not least:

You cry as loud now, as everyone who was asking for the kernel sources. So please, if you want to have an active community which is productive start to participate. Start learning to code, follow tutorials, write your own for others, just do anything in the area you would like to see more, instead of just complaining without trying to change anything. So, I hope you understand, that I do not want to be offensive, but constructive. Give it a try, be a meaningful member of a community, set an example.

Looking at your previous history, there is a lot of room for improving ;)

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Haizum74:
To a certain degree I understand what the OP is saying. Compared to other areas and phone forums on XDA, there does seem to be an abundance of repeat posts and questions such as 'I've tried this tool and its done this, what do I do' or 'I can't unlock boot, help. without explaining the steps etc that they did, leaving people to guess the answer and then the posts on the thread get longer as the answer might not be pointing in the right direction. However by spitting their dummy out of the pram, they are not helping in trying to bring the MI A1 community together.

With regards to suggesting that devs get together and sort things out with TWRP etc, you have to realise that those guys and gals that are working on ROMS, Tools and such like are potentially doing this in their spare time while juggling home and work life. Again, ranting isn't going to speed things up, devs will get there at some point, 'when' is entirely their decision and not for us who aren't developers, to make or keep badgering them about.

So calm the passion, wind ya neck in and chill the feck out.

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] white43:
I'm using the Mate 10 C636 - ALP-L29 version with the very latest 8.0.0.131 firmware.

This was the firmware that allegedly added VoLTE and VoWiFi features.

I've never found these settings in the settings on the phone and my mobile provider, Plusnet (at MVNO), does not offer VoWifi.

So, I was particularly interested to see that MVNO "IDMobile", based on the 'Three' network was offering VoWifi and in particular, if you look at the devices they support:

https://www.idmobile.co.uk/help-and-advice/wifi-calling

How random. All the iPhones and the Mate 10. Not the Mate 10 Pro.

Which is odd, given that the Mate 10 has never been released here, but the Pro has.

I decided to speak to ID Mobile, to see if this really was the case, here's the transcript......

As you can see, I don't think the person I was speaking to was aware of there being multiple versions and firmwares of the same device. They do a bit of a politician and side-step fully confirming. They do categorically state it's not the Mate 10 Pro. I would be very surprised if they are actually supporting the Mate 10. Given that the phone was only updated to VoWIFI recently, I find this a bit hard to believe.

So given that ID Mobile allow a one month contract, I'm going to try it out......

See that makes sense. I think ID Mobile have gotten it wrong and they support the Mate 10 Pro. But we'll see.

Do you have settings to turn it off and on? I don't. But maybe that's a network thing.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Thasscas44:
They've definitely got it wrong as it's working on my Mate 10 Pro!

Yes I have a WiFi calling option in the 'mobile network' menu. Nothing for volte - there's no ability to switch that on or off, it just seems to work and if it does you can't opt out.

Good luck with the standard Mate on iD, hopefully it's got a similar WiFi calling configuration to the pro so could work.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] derrickmd18:
My first problem is I can't send text messages when I'm in wifi. Get a failed message.

Second problem is YouTube keeps stopping after a few minutes when I have the screen off.

I have MetroPCS which is on TMobile.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] JaguarXT:
First issue:

Make sure Wifi calling is setup on your T-Mobile or MetroPCS account. Make sure you activate WiFi calling on your Note 8. Make sure you have Internet service with the WiFi connection (you can try to surf the Internet with a browser on your Note 8). Check to see if the person received the message (sometimes it looks like the message didn't go when it did).

Second issue:

You have to have YouTube Red in order to have this function. This is one of the features of YouTube Red. Subscribing to Google Play Music also subscribes you to YouTube Red. You may be able to find a third party YouTube app that will do this for you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] derrickmd18:
I looked through the MetroPCS and it's setup in the phone but don't think I have the feature. Because text isn't working but it says active.

I have YouTube red. And when I had the s8+ it worked fine. With the note 8 for some reason when it's sitting with the screen off its says connection error. I turned off power saving and all but it keeps stopping it when it gets to deep sleep.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] JaguarXT:
For YouTube. When you are in YouTube app. Click on your profile icon on the upper right. Settings > Background and downloads > Background play > click on "Playback" and click on "Always on". Restart app.

If you don't see these settings within YouTube app then update the app.

You can make sure that you didn't set YouTube app to auto sleep in the background. In Note 8 settings > Device maintenance > Battery > Always sleeping apps > then make sure YouTube is not in there.

For WiFi calling. When WiFi calling is activated in your Note 8 and have cellular radio off (First do Airplane mode, then activate both WiFi and WiFi Calling) do a WiFi calling test. First test the WiFi Internet connection by surfing the internet with a browser on your Note 8. Then do the WiFi calling test by making a complete call. Can you successfully complete a phone call from making call to talking to someone? This is a test to see if you have WiFi calling activated in your MetroPCS account.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] derrickmd18:
wifi calling isn't activated.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] JaguarXT:
Contact MetroPCS to have them help you in getting WiFi Calling activated and setup for your device.

Note - There are no some versions of devices from other carriers and/or unlocked that don't work with MetroPCS WiFi Calling.

Hi there..

Is there a ROM updater/image for the Vox that can be loaded from the SD card (through bootloader or not) ?

It seems like usb connection on my Vox died. Can't get it to connect to anything and I've tried everything so far.

I can't upgrade/flash the ROM as I have no usb connectivity whatsoever.

It would much appreciated if somebody can point me in the right direction.

Thanks
