[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] madshark2009:
you are right but im not comparing only with samsung, also with HTC and the previous version of xperia , the Z3

yes maybe on emulated 4k it has sharper screen but keep in mind that on 1080 is not as sharp as other 1080p, even on 2k it isnt only on 4k mode it is unbeatable which to add is emulated and not native

put phone on 2k battery dies so much faster than lets say samsung or HTC which both have same CPU GPU and almost same battery size, how is that? because the resolution is emulated, which forces GPU to resize source resolution of 1080p to make it in a fake way look like 4k instead of showing native 4k (which doesnt require such hard work from GPU as its showing real pixels instead of emulating fake pixels!) Which leads to less over heating and less battery consumption.

heck even on 1080p screen looks worse and still get worse battery life than other phones...

thats what bothers
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] madshark2009:
not exactly but some other phones have better 1080p than the 1080p on this device, yes text and symbols maybe just as sharp its hard to tell but im talking about pictures (for example, in instagram, facebook. youtube thumbnails etc...) I once was on 4k mode and it was very hard to tell the difference between this phone and the Z3 and even some times the z3 showed more picture details in instagram and its only 1080p...

im not complaining about the screen though, its pretty decent and with 4k mod on it looks superb, im just saying sony has put some thing in a device that is useless and im trying to figure out why...

by useless i mean sony left us no option to use such settings, why dont they add the options of 1080-120hz or 4k? naive and not emulated! this bugs me

and yes it is 4k, just like youtube you dont have to watch on 4k settings, but you can see the option is there which means it supports it.

that means even if you dont have a 4k video in your video app or album app, the option is there that means if you ever have a 4k video on there the device will play it at its maximum resolution.

phones that dont support 4k will show that the video looks as sharp as 1080 instead of real 4k

[Huawei Mediapad M3 Questions & Answers] mediapadguy:
Hey all, after unlocking bootloader and getting root acccess, I noticed Bluetooth wouldn't activate anymore. Looking around I figured it was because of my build number which was "NRD90M Test keys". I decided to use the dload method to update to the correct build but the update kept failing so I decided to flash the update.zip through Twrp.

That was a big mistake. :(

Now ,whenever I turn on the tablet, it goes to a screen with red words that's says "Device has failed verification" and never boots. So I decided to just let the battery die and now the tablet doesn't charge and has a constant red blinking light. I cannot access recovery, just fastboot mode.....please help
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Questions & Answers] lilbrat:
Well if you can remember what firmware you were on you could try downloading it, the extract the boot image and try flashing it in fastboot mode..
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Questions & Answers] mediapadguy:
I tried that as well. I downloaded the boot.img and the when I attempt to fastboot flash it

says this :

target reported max download size of 471859200 bytes

sending 'boot' (15848 KB)...

OKAY [ 0.367s]

writing 'boot'...

FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)

finished. total time: 0.398s
[Huawei Mediapad M3 Questions & Answers] mediapadguy:
UPDATE: OK folks I got a solution FINALLY! :

You have to get into fastboot mode and unlock the bootloader. Hopefully you have your code saved and can pull it up.

Connect your MediaPad to your computer and Hold Volume - and Power key to get into fastboot/rescue mode. Go to cmd line on your PC and type in " fastboot oem unlock xxxxxxxxxx", the xxx part is your code.

Next, you should now be able to boot up to the yellow word screen that gives three options and starts to say booting now but does nothing.

Instead go back to fastboot mode again by doing the previous steps and then do the following :

1. Install this tool : https://xdaforums.com/honor-8/development/tool-huawei-multi-tool-team-mt-t3523923

2. Get the UPDATE.APP for your device. (NOTE: You might need both the "update.zip and update_data_full_hw.zip". If only Update.zip is available then go for that.)

3. Go to the unbrick section of the multi-tool and select "Launch Huawei Update Extractor"

4. In the extractor, select your "UPDATE.APP" file and it should display all the .IMG files within. Select the 5 required files ( I didn't have USER.DATA.IMG so don't worry if you can't find that. ) that are listed in the multi-tool unbrick section and extract to a folder.

NOTE: As previously mentioned, if you have both the update.zip and update_data_full_hw.zip files, then you need to open both of their respective UPDATE.APP files in order to get all the required .IMG files.

5. Go back to the multi-tool unbrick section select the folder you put the .IMG files in and click on "Unbrick".

6. And thats it, it should say

"03:45:33: Completed

03:45:33: All images are flashed successfully "

In the bottom right hand window if all went well. Disconnect your usb and just put your device on charging. It should start charging again and boot up normally when you press the power button. :good::D:good:

[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] royredman:
Hello. I have noticed in these threads recently that there is an IMEI, 4G, and VOLTE being lost by flashing roms (it seems like it might be only oreo roms??).

I am in the process of buying this phone (it is amazing for carrier compatibility), and am curious on what your guys thoughts are on this.

I am not at all new to rom'ing, but I definitely want to make sure that I am not permanently loosing any important functionality with this phone.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] psychopac:
I'd recommend staying stock until the devs figure out what's going on with VoLTE and they come up with something unless it's Motovo/Lenovorola's fault, in that case you're better off staying stock anyways atleast until the issue is taken care of.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] royredman:
can you explain when this happened? Are all roms vulnerable to this, or just oreo roms? Also, how long has the developers been looking into this for?
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] psychopac:
This is happening with Oreo ROMs at the moment, at least that's what I've been seeing.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] acejavelin:
I go back to this statement... if you have to question whether you want/need to root or ROM, then you don't need to and should not do so.

Honestly, rooting today is now like years ago... most "normal" users gain little and give themselves more headaches than it's worth.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] royredman:
I wasn't questioning whether I wanted to or not. I like the idea of rooting and Roming my phone. I have done it many times before. The reason I am buying this phone is close to exactly that reason. I was asking the users if it was a good idea since a vast amount of users are losing their VOLTE and possibly their 4G connections because of doing this.

There can be a fair amount of advantages to with rooting and roming overall, but the reasons for doing this tends to become less and less important as modern cell phones get more powerful and more customizable .
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] acejavelin:
Literally, the title of this thread is "should I root or ROM this phone" so forgive me if I misunderstood.

I don't think anyone properly rooting or installing a quality ROM is losing 4G/LTE connectivity, although a few seem to lose VoLTE but it makes no sense why as the radio firmware doesn't change with a custom ROM and the kernel and AOSP VoLTE implementation source code is available.

Check threads for the ROM you're interested in, and look for information specific to your carrier. I can't speak for some but VoLTE isn't allowed from this device to Verizon or AT&T and most of their MVNOs.

Extracting many "long key name" = "value" pairs from DB2's log files

Hello Team!

I have a problem go through it!

Working on extracting some Key/Value pairs out of DB2's log files. I have a file like this:

No problem at all.

- Install the cab.

- Open MJ config.

- Input your sim as "Approved" or what ever they call it.

- Input the pfone number/numbers to send the SMS when an unauthorized SIM is inserted.

- Insert the code you vant to use. Lets say "1111"

- Save

Before you delete the MJ config application, test the functionality.

To test send an SMS to your phone with the text "1111 +g". The phone should now replay with its GPS position as soon as it gets a fix...

Edit: And you do have to restart your device after configuring MJ to start the services...

[Samsung Galaxy J7 (2017) Questions & Answers] Bacardi Man:
Hello,

I am thrilled by the idea to merge my work phone and my private phone into one device. That's why I collected much information over the past weeks about dual sim phones and even got myself a testing device.

I am currently sitting in front of a Samsung Galaxy J7 (2017) and have been setting it up the past hours.

The result is disillusioning at best.

I am therefore seeking the help of you dual sim pros out there.

Is there any device/software which allows me to strictly split

contacts

dialer

messages

For contacts it would be great to have an app with the option to switch between work and private contacts by pressing just one button instead of being forced to dig through the settings to change the contact group to be displayed.

The dialer should work similarly and therefore just show calls from/to either my work or my private sim.

Messages should be shwon seperately for every sim card as well.

After having done my research I tend to believe that Samsung has the best out of the box software for dual sim support with "dual messaging". But it still is a pain in the ass to be honest.

Then there are paralell space and the alike but do not seem to be good solutions either.

There must be some convenient solution that I haven't found. I refuse to believe that all dual sim users are getting along with these hurdles.

Please tell me I'm right!

Best regards

Dietmar

In dialer you can set up call always ask it will ask you about you want call using sim 1 or sim 2.Like for me, im using sim 1 for private and sim 2 for other.Then in message i dont think so you can seperate it.But you choose sim 1 or sim 2 to send the message.About the dual messenger are limited to certain app like whatsapp, fb, & etc..and this is all about i know hope it will help you a little bit.Here the screenshot attached.

Is there a way to root this phone without losing data, settings and apps? In my previous phone (Cubot X9), I was able to download this app called Kingroot and it rooted my phone with just a click and all my data, settings and apps were intact.

Is there a way to backup the data and then after root, restore the data?

Main reason I want to root the phone is to disable the vibration when unlocking the phone with fingerprint and also to enable the notification led.
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] ____Mdd:
No apps like 'kingoroot' will work.

For getting root, you need to unlock bootloader, which will erase everything on phone (apps/photos/videos/anything on internal storage), you can take backup of internal storage (photos/videos/etc) but i don't think it's possible to backup app's data without root.

Then you will have to install TWRP and then Root of your choice. (Magisk is recommended if safetynet matters to you.)

[There is encryption on stock ROM by default, and it caused me to wipe my device again after installing stuffs on my device, so after you get your device working fine, then only restore data to internal storage back, till then keep it safe on external or PC.]
