Hi.

My phone is bricked now.The phone can load 9008 mode.So I can use the qfil tool to unbrick it.But I need some files to rescue it. The file name like xxxx.mbn xxx.elf and rawprogram-flash0.xml.If you can provide:)
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] rukesh18:
I was in the same situation as you. I tried reaching out to a couple forums and had no luck. I eventually ended up paying $199 to get a replacement from Essential. I believe that is the only option at this time. No one seems to have the emmc files for Essential phone yet.

Exactly the same. It's completely dead, not visible in the windows device manager or lsusb on linux either.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ZiemowitP:
If you turn it off. Press and hold the up volume button then plug in USB... it'll start and hang at the booting screen. Isn't that a way to enter the mode?

Nope. When your turn it on, the backlight is dim so you can barely see the boot screen. Still no way to get it recognized on my pc :(

Hi,

So I'm just trying to install some more codecs on the smart TV, but it doesn't let you download apk files and doesn't even show them in the file browser from the USB drive.

I've tried using the ES file explorer trick, but the TV doesn't show up on the scan (yes both on the same wifi network).

Has anyone been able to install things on this TV?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] yellowman82:
Hey guys just came across someone selling a brand new sealed clean IMEI number pixle 2 XL 128GB version for $700. I heard so much negativity about the screen burn in issues or blue tint on the screen but besides that nothing else so is a brand new sealed pixle 2 XL 128GB be worth buying? I need some options would any of you guys pull the trigger since you guys had lots of time with y'all pixle. Thanks in advance.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
That's not a bad deal, if it were 600, I'd go for it if it's a Google version. I haven't had any of the issues you've read about, not that their not true, I just haven't had them, and I ordered it on release day. I'm enjoying the heck outa mine, fast, smooth, unlocked, rooted, themed, and romed up. Having said all that, it's mid March, and the P3 will probably come out in October. So unless your in dire need of a phone, I'd hold off until then. But that's just me :good:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] EeZeEpEe:
Brand new!? That's a great deal! I would get it for that price. Maybe it "fell off the truck"? LOL.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] galaxys:
Sounds to good to be true...but if legit, then go for it! :cool:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] NICEGYPT:
Just bought mine! it will be here tomorrow :D
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Zorachus:
I'd still recommend the Pixel 2 XL over any other smartphone right now in March 2018. It's not that old, it got released in mass to the public in November last year, and stock Android is so smooth and just a pleasure to use. I wouldn't take a Galaxy S9+ for free nor an iPhone X over my 2 XL.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] browniegirl:
I don't recommend a used/sealed resell pixel 2 xl. The warranty is only for the original owner. If the person bought the preferred that can be transferred but not the original. So if you need that phone replaced then the original owner would need to contact Google. Buy directly from Verizon or Google imo.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] rickysidhu_:
I bought my phone second hand and I called Google and provided them the IMEI number. The rep told me it's a clean 2XL and the standard 2 year warranty was transferred over to me :/
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] browniegirl:
I truly hope so cause they've been denying people hard who bought 2xls second hand from what I've seen. And it's not supposed to transfer from owner to owner.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Jinthegodstyle:
Same here. I bought it sealed in ukraine, that was shipped from USA but i am living in Greece :P i contact Google about my device that was with issues, Just to check my warranty and from my IMEI they cover everything! Even if its second or third hand resseler i dont know :)
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] dieselhazza:
Mate for that price definitely buy it. If you can confirm it is sealed and under warranty it would be crazy not to buy it. The battery life and smoothness on this device is great. I got the note 8 thinking it would be smooth with 6GB ram and have good battery life. I returned the device in 2 days couldn't stand it. Got the pixel 2 XL and loving it.

I won't buy another samsung device for years to come. I had the S4, Note 5, S7 Edge and Note 8. All of them had lag and battery life issues.

However i had a sony xz premium for 8 months that always ran smooth with great battery life. Samsung in my opinion is not worth it. It looks beautiful wirh amazing display but performance is not there. The Google Pixel is a much better device overall.

I would happily recommend the Pixel 2 XL over any phone out there today.

The best screen I have ever seen on a phone is the sony xz premium. It was out of this world. Much better than samsung in my opinion.

However as a daily driver my Pixel is just king. From now.on I'm a Pixel user as I will upgrade to next pixel handset
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] yellowman82:
Damn thanks for all you guys opinions seems like it's really worth buying then. I'll be meeting up with the seller later on today.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] EeZeEpEe:
Let us know how it goes and hope it's legit.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] dieselhazza:
You will see the difference as soon as you start using it. No competition here
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] yellowman82:
Yea I really noticed the difference I had finally got it and have it all set up. This phone is really a beast of a phone I don't regret getting it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] EeZeEpEe:
So was actually brand new and sealed? You got an amazing deal. I still think it "fell off the truck". LOL
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] yellowman82:
Yup it was sealed up brand new. Idk what happened I didn't even asked I just made sure to check the IMEI number and made sure that it was still under warranty with Google and yea it still is :good: :laugh:

My device never use third cluster for games and always throttle at 50C. Anyway to fix this without root such as secret code?
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] sk8223:
I don't think that's possible. You need a custom kernel for that.

EDIT: actually, you probably only need a custom ROM, root and an app like Kernel Auditor.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] saulc1981:
Pretty basic questions whether i need an app that does this or a workaround i just want to use my biometrics without a dam screenlock? Such as samsung pay, samsung pass, my bank apps and others. Dam google phone arent adding feature like before they are going back in time.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] saulc1981:
Except without root.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Stevieboy02008:
Actually you can without root. Set your biometrics normally with a password or a pin then go back to lock screen options and change it to swipe or no lock. And from there you will get a warning and it will have 2 options. One is remove data and the other is keep it. If you keep it it will work with the other apps. I have PayPal installed and I did the same thing also Samsung Pay.

And I'm not rooted using stock
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] saulc1981:
No dice. I know that already. My fault i did say basic. Thats the problem. When i put keep data like ice done for a long time but now i get this message and i cant use the fingerprint or iris with any app.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Stevieboy02008:
Well then you might need root access. I don't have root access but it works for me just fine so im not sure.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] thedicemaster:
use a secure settings app to set automatic lock delay to something ridiculously high like 540000(several days)

and turn off "lock instantly with power key".

normally you're limited to 30 minutes by the settings app, but if you use a secure settings app you can manually change it to something much higher.

using this setup you no longer need a pin coming from standby(lockscreen is skipped completely) unless you don't touch your phone for several days.

you'll still need a pin when turning on your phone or accessing lockscreen settings, but that's not something you'll do multiple times a day.

this does require ADB(to grant the hidden "secure settings" permission to the secure settings app once) but doesn't require root.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Sukhi:
You can't do it anymore. AFAIK, Samsung changed this with the Jan or Feb patch. There's an article on sammobile that highlighted the change.

Edit : Here's the article : https://www.sammobile.com/news/on-o...ed-and-stored-only-with-a-secure-screen-lock/
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] willcor:
I don't use any screenlock etc on my phone.

What i have done is place all my relevant apps eg banking, password manager etc in the Secure folder

(knox protected) If i want to use them i use fingerprint to unlock my secure folder.

Then i use fingerprint, to log into my banking app or use fingerprint for my password manager.

Further, I only install the relevant app (Google Play) that i want, inside secure folder. So no duplication of app.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Elpidioa:
I found a small loophole if you have a bluetooth device. You can turn smart lock on and have it stay unlocked as long as its connected to that device be it headset, smartwatch, etc. You can also do it based on location.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] MystaMagoo:
Delete me
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] alex.do:
It's been years already but I have a way to get it to work without root without installing any apps. I hope it helps some one.

You will need adb and usb debugging on. Open cmd / terminal and execute these 2 commands:

adb shell settings put secure lock_after_timeout_rollback 86400000
adb shell settings put secure lock_screen_lock_after_timeout 86400000

86400000 = 24 hours in miliseconds. You can change to a number that you find suitable.

This secure settings will survive after reboot so you only need to do once.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] tworla:
What you could do is enable a pin lock and make a tasker/autoinput script to unlock the screen using that pin when the lock button is pushed
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] sosimple:
Autoinput no longer works in last android versions. To make this work in last android versions you will need root and would be probably unreliabile IF it would work at all.. Because i have done something similar, when phone go to sleep tasker scripts doesn't work even if you call them from a button when screen is off.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] tworla:
Weird because it works for me on android 13. Not that it is very usefull either because tasker only has an option to assign tasks when for the power button (long press). No idea why there is no way to use a short press.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] sosimple:
Probably exactly because it can't work correctly by short press when phone is in sleep mode with screen off. I actually use another program to assign an app to a short key press and then use tasker script as the app. This way i can do it by short press but it has problems at least in my case..

[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] oxxy123:
Hey guys, since I got my phone it feels a bit laggy comparing to my friend's S7 with the same SD 820.

Thought it was MIUI problem, so changed to LOS 14.1. Still felt laggy and my multi-core geekbench was never higher than 3000, so I did some research and saw people commenting here that LOS roms are not king of perfomance. Then I saw a video of someone benching the Paranoid Android 7.2 and getting something like 5200 points, so I thought I'd give it a try. Changed the rom and the phone feels a little less laggy but my bench is almost the same at around 3000.

Is my phone defective? If not, what should I do to try and fix it? Almost 1 year since I bought it and the OnePlus 5 that my GF bought seems so much snappier and faster it makes me sad that my Mi5 seems slow as my Motorola Atrix.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] idksomuch:
I bought mine from Samsung.com and noticed that it says "Unlocked by Samsung" on the box. I don't know if that means the device isn't actually a Tmobile unit though. Anyways, Samsung Pay doesn't work for me. When I install it from Okay I Store, it says this device isn't compatible. When I install it from the Galaxy App store, it tells me a new update is available and the new features are "Brand new UX" and when I press OK, it just closes the app. Is it just because the phone isn't officially released yet or is it a software issue? Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] BoboBrazil:
If it says unlocked by Samsung you do not have the TMobile version.

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] idksomuch:
Mine is SMG965U1ZKAX. I ordered a T-Mobile Midnight Black S9+ From Samsung.com. Everything about it seems like it's an unlocked model. I don't even get the T-Mobile splash screen when I reboot the phone. If it really is the unlocked version, I'm guessing that model hasn't been updated to support Samsung Pay yet. I'm not sure if it's a good thing or a bad thing that I got the unlocked version instead of the T-Mobile version.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] idksomuch:
I went back to my order receipt/emails and checked to make sure I even ordered the T-Mobile model. Turns out, it's the Unlocked model. I know for a fact I chose the T-Mobile option but I guess not. Was the Unlocked S8+ compatible with Samsung Pay?

If you do not have a T-Mobile folder with T-Mobile apps on your phone, it means is not from T-Mobile.

You guys probably have to wait for actually launch date I'm pretty sure this happened with the note 7... They don't push all updates unfortunately until launch dates for some services. So I'm sure within the next 3 days it'll be updated to support the unlocked variants

Here's a link to a screen shot I took of the issue. It says Not compatible. It only shows this if I download from the Play Store.

https://imgur.com/KPwoDl9

I get this when I install from Galaxy Apps. When I press the OK or Cancel button, the Samsung pay just force closes. There's no updates for Samsung Pay in the Galaxy App store or the Play Store either.

https://imgur.com/NtTBTZG

I did get a software update this morning which I installed, but Samsung Pay still gives me the same errors. I called Samsung Pay Support a few hours ago and the guy basically said it's a known issue with the S9 and S9+ and that there should be an update pushed out "Soon" that'll fix it. Other than a factory reset, I think my only option is to wait. I'd rather not reset my phone unless I absolutely have to because I hate getting things set up again, lol.

Edit: I should probably add, I can't even set up Samsung Pay. I get those error messages any time I try to launch the app.
