[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] Shortrhymes:
Hi guys,

I had installed few hours ago the LineageOS, but it really didn't fit to me, so I decided to wipe data, cache etc. and install global stable rom.

First of all when I wanted to make the wipe, I got msg like "unable mount internal storage".

Then I downloaded fastboot version of firmware and was going to flash it via XiaoMiFlash tool. I got this:

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] xzolteu:
Hi, I wanted to change charging sound of custom rom, cuz its so annoying. So I wanted to change it, but I m not able to find charging sounds in system/media/sounds/ui. I even deleted the media folder, and every sound dissapeared, except charging, so it ISNT in system/media. I was able to change lock, unlock, touch and keyboard sounds, but charging ones are no where to be found. Does anyone know where is the file of charging sound in custom roms?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kixel_:
Hi

I recently installed the newest nightly build of LineageOS (the link on the wiki page). I put in my 64GB micro sd card and formatted it to work as internal storage. Android itself does recognize this (in the settings menu), but the file manager doesn't, and when i connect the phone via usb to my windows 10 pc, it also only shows around 11 GB of storage space. After I copied some music over (and some time) it now reports my the sdcard in windows (with its 59,4GB), but not the internal storage. Is that a bug? Am i stupid? :confused:

Hey there. Just out of curiosity, what is the default "smallest width" value in dev options with default screen size on Nokia 8? :confused:
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] Iwin#:
Just checked it's 484. If you change the display size after a custom value it gets reset.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] ken2802:
Is this a known issue? Every thing I try to download from the playstore gets stuck on downloading no matter what connection I use.

One thing I noticed is that it works for a bit after a reboot which leads me to believe that the download Manager is at fault since that one stops working for most other apps too.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] 7ronic:
also with X Compact

I have the same problem with my German Xperia X Compact after the Oreo update. App downloads/updates a stuck in state 'Downloading' for a long time. But they eventually start downloading within an hour.

I tried to troubleshoot with these instructions but without success:

Tried all other suggestions (except factory reset/changing ROM), turning Battery Saver on/off-

instantly

fixed this issue. Thanks for sharing!
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Lavievn:
is it turn on "power-saving excepptions" in battery menu for play store, i'm using XZ1 and got this problem many times, and only way to fix is reset my phone :(, now i hace both XZP and XZ1 and dont want it happen again.

sorry for my bad english.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] callmeWhiskers:
No, just the "normal" Battery Saver feature of Android (the one that suggests turning on at 15% battery). As soon as I manually turned it on and off, Play Store downloads worked again (immediately).
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Lavievn:
oh, i see, i'll try now, thanks
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Lavievn:
Hi, it's me again, i just changed from xz1 to xzp yesterday, start install some app on playstore, everything seem normal till 2 hours ago, it's happen again, i mean play store stuck at downloading or download pending, i try clear data/cache of play store, turn off battery save...etc...restart my phone but nothing happen, this xzp is brand new phone, i think this will happen more. Hopefully Pie dont have this, everytime before i need to factory reset to fix this :(.

dunno why but it works while battery saver is on.

Have you found a permanent solution? I'm using a redmi note 4 and getting the same exact error. Using pixel experience rom android 9 with a custom kernel
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] paramsiddharth:
Oddly enough, I just realized that this was the only solution that worked for me right now.

Randomly, from time-to-time, the Google Play Store on my phone goes into phases when it is impossible to download or update anything at all. Again, it eventually recovers without notice, too.

Edit: Another known fix that works for me is forcibly stopping whichever of the following apps I have installed:

• Paytm.

• AVG Antivirus.

• Truecaller.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] FloBWan:
I live in the US and I have a need for a dual SIM phone. I have a friend coming in from Germany in May and I was hoping he could pick me up the phone in Germany and bring it into the states.

I there an easy way to set the default language to English (US)? I don’t remember if there is the option when first powering on the phone.

I know it is possible to go to Language and Input and set the default language there but when I did this on my S7 Edge I saw sever performance and lag.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

It's the first thing you see when you first start the phone - the option to change language.

[Honor View 10 Questions & Answers] aaronje:
My question is - does anyone else notice that when on 3G/H+, the Honor View 10 does not readily switch to 4G until the 3G signal is about to drop?

I'm on the Three network in the UK. My previous phone was commonly on 4G. The Honor View 10 however often sits on 3G/H+ despite preferred network mode being 4G/3G/2G. Switching to airplane mode on then off causes the phone to then connect back to the network on 4G.. I've checked signal strength in both modes and quite often 4G is showing a much better signal. However my unit at least does not switch to it unless 3G signal drops or I force it to connect to 4G via a quick airplane mode on/off.

Any suggestions/or own observations are appreciated. My unit is a BKL-L09 (C432) 8.0.0.130

Its this time of the year guys! This thread is to discuss pre-orders across all stores and providers in Canada. To compare notes and ask ROBELUS related questions. I personally pulled the trigger for an unlocked (no subsidy) phone through best buy, delivery scheduled for the 16th and then I went back in an through Telus the pick up is on the 9th for some reason so I pulled the trigger on both. What did you order from where? What did you select? Pick up or delivery? Please share.

It seems the Exynos s9+ has 128gb of memory and the Snapdragon only 64gb. What gives?

Well the exynos is more expensive so at least you get more for your money, but ya stupid decision samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] htc fan89:
That kind of makes me mad, like why can't samsung offer 64gb and 128gb/256gb in Canada. I mean if apple could do it, then samsung should have no excuse.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Aakash Kaushal:
So there's no Exynos version? Wtf?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] htc fan89:
yeah there is an exynos version, not for Canada. I heard Samsung going be under-clocking exynos processors so they are the same performance of sd845.

One question though, does anyone know where to get the blue in Canada?

But on snapdragon, we wont have unlocked bootloader so no root , which means no xda stuff. Na man, i won't buy s9 then!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] QAM:
Hola

I am still on the fence about getting this device. One unique thing that I need is VoLTE and Wi-Fi Calling features and currently you can only get these "advanced" functions by buying a phone directly from your carrier. I would be more inclined to get the Exynos version primarily because you can get decent third-party custom ROMs that, for the most part, provide a cleaner experience than the bloated full stock firmware.

Ah boy first world issues indeed...

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] mrnovanova:
Yes it is but my pick up date is the 9th. Guy on the phone confirmed it but in the store they're saying they might receive it on the 9th and still won't be able to sell it until the 16th. That's why I guess we'll see Friday.

That be cool if they sell it earlier, but slim chance for that.

But why you guys not worried about the Snapdragon processor, i mean locked bootloader. Are you guys okay with that?

Also the benchmark scores are drastically higher on Exynos (3600, 9500) as compared ro the crapdragon(2400,8500).
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] htc fan89:
No point if Samsung going under clock the exynos version so it performs like sd845. That’s what people at anandtech found out, hopefully it’s not true.

Bro the geekbench scores are drastically high on exynos but yeah the the other scores are pretty low.. i think in real life, Exynos will still be faster than the Snapdragon.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] WorldIRC:
People still pay attention to benchmarks? I have no issues with my SD835 S8+ and I only expect the S9+ to be even faster. I'll take real-world usage over benchmarks any day. Plus, I like being able to use VoLTE and having proper Carrier Aggregation support for LTE, something that I can't use if I import an Exynos version.

[Mogul, XV6800 General] aatreya:
does it work if you leave it blank?
[Mogul, XV6800 General] jemmrich:
no it doesnt work leaving blank, actually its like im forced to leave it blank.

I read on their FAQ page that this field has to have something in it, anything but blank to work.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] dboreham:
Apologies because this is my fault. I updated the device setup instructions

long ago (months) when we first tested with WM6. Somehow my updated

instructions never got pushed to the live site. <slaps forehead>

So, for WM5 you need to put something in the 'domain' field to keep

the device happy, but we ignore the field anyway.

For WM6 it detects a fully-qualified username and greys out the

domain field, so there is no need to put anything in it.

There's some evidence that WM6.1 is different again in that it

strips out the domain part from a full-qualified username, so we

may be modifying the service to use a simple, non-qualified (no '@')

username in the future.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] jr2007:
Okay,

So I wish to preface by stating I've been looking for answers everywhere so if I've missed anything at all I apologize. Long story short I have two samsung galaxy 8+ G955U at&t. Their IMEI are blacklist. I've look at changing that through youtube and various other sources(have dug some in here also), now I've gotten as far as to use odin and combination ap to to access the factory binary mode, and wipe efs. Now my IMEI on one device is all zeros. From this point I don't know where to go or what to do as all the guide simply lead to a service. I just want to be able to use these devices I need guidance as to what firmware files I actually need and what to do from here to write a new IMEI number onto the devices.

I have attempted to use some firmware files I found but odin 3.12.7 provides the following error code:

<ID:0/007> Odin engine v(ID:3.1207)..

<ID:0/007> File analysis..

<ID:0/007> SetupConnection..

<ID:0/007> Initialzation..

<ID:0/007> FAIL! Model dismatch fail

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

Now , again im not sure what to do or where to go. I appreciate all the help.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] louayd:
As far as I know, I read an article lately saying the new Iphone and the s8 are the only phones that haven't been hacked like this, I read that once ur IMEI is on the global blacklist it will not accept any service provider SIM, I guess you will have to wait until someone circumvents this, blacklisting usually happen to reported stolen phones
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] jr2007:
Can anyone else confirm this? As for them being reported stolen this is something I am aware of. I picked them up off of someone else didn't know at the time. If this si true how can I restore the IMEI on the device I have 0'd out? Again any direction here is valuable.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] TheMadScientist:
You will not find help on XDA It is illegal to do what you are asking and are in possession of 2 stolen S8s which in US is prob near 1200$ worth of phone which is a felony count of possession of stolen property

We do not discuss the changing of IMEIs on XDA.

You need to return them and they need to return them.......

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] pirateye:
I did some research, but it looks like there's no bundle this year and the options for a "deal" are pretty much limited to the Trade-In program (available almost everywhere) and the $100 off available only at BestBuy (but with a new activation).

Any other option that I've missed?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Geekser:
I guess it depends on if you want a snapdragon or exynos - I don't believe there is bundle like years past where you get a VR or Dex or something - but if you want to order the Exynos version - best I have found is Clove UK. They prep the phone to avoid region unlock when you turn it on here - great service - I got my note 8 there and have ordered my S9 Plus there too
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Poesini:
I suppose the pre-order on Samsung site US will be the SnapDragon version... Is there any way to get the Exynos version in the US?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] pirateye:
I don't think you can get the Exynos version in the use due to the region lock.

But you can get it from the UK. See Geekser's post.

Nice cause it comes with 128GB of storage as well... Wondering tho if you had to pay any customs fees.

Edit:

I just checked how much it would be in $ without any eventual customs fees and it comes down to 743.17quid which is $1021.09! Haha! I just refuse to pay 1k for a phone, even if I could run vSphere on it!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Geekser:
I ordered my NOte 8 from them and when the phone shipped to me via DSL I did not have to pay any customs fees. Regarding the cost - in my view, to buy a samsung phone Like the S9 Plus that I can root and run custom roms - well - it's worth the price to me. Even though it does cost more than the Snapdragon phones sold here in the states - custom kernels will never be possible on those phones - so to me - its worth the additional cost.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Deathman20:
Sadly looks official at least for the US no additional bonus on, Samsung, Best Buy or Verizon currently. Only deal I see is getting it from Best Buy with the $100 credit which makes at least the 9S+ $815 And the cheapest price period for this phone.

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] unk2009:
I was going to order through Samsung and then I remembered that last year after I purchased my S8+ from T-Mobile less than a month later T-Mobile had buy one get one free deal and soon after Samsung offered the same deal with $0 down... I'm going to wait but Samsung is offering a trade in discount for eligible phones
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] pirateye:
That's a good point and it makes sense, but I still think is too much for a phone that has a lifespan less than a year.

Correct, but that $100 is valid only if you activate a new SIM.

Google says "Project Treble will be coming to all new devices launched with Android O and beyond."

That trade-in value is meh... Hopefully, they'll have nice offers later on, but till then I'll just preorder it at BestBuy and take advantage of the gift cards I have :angel:
