Can anyone recommend a USB hub (preferably USB c) that has Ethernet and works with the pixel c? I bought a WeMe hub that has Ethernet, but my pixel c doesn't recognize it all (my mate 9 does though). Any recommendations? There are lots out there, but I want to make sure it will work.

Thanks!

UPDATE: Well, I went ahead and bought another one. This is the page it came from, though it seems to be gone: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07538HPD9/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It works perfectly. It was a TICTID QA-H01E (3 port usb 3 hub with an ethernet port). I have to use it with a usb 3.0 to usb-c adapter, but it only cost $6 when I bought. Not sure if it will come back to amazon or not.

There is already a thread on this subject. All you need to do before posting is search.

Anker has one that works with the Pixel C.

[Pixel C Accessories] tim.malone:
Thanks for the reply. I did quite a bit of searching first. No threads specific to this subject came up. There was a thread about power delivery and hubs and one about wifi dongles that mentioned hubs. Someone provided an Amazon link to a hub, but when I followed it I got a product page for a record player. There was a thread from 2016 that mentioned the Anker hub. I was hoping someone would chime in to confirm it still works. I'd be interested in hearing about other hubs as well.

If you gave a link to the previous thread on this subject, please post it.

Thanks.

[Moto G4 Play Questions & Answers] wtfamidoinghere:
I've had a big problem since I updated to Nougat. Any time my battery reaches around 30% or lower it dies randomly. It's very frustrating and I can't figure out what's wrong with it because the battery was great on Marshmallow. It dies incredibly fast also which just adds to the desire to throw my phone off a tall building or run it over with my car. If I use flash light for any reason it seems to trigger the dying faster if I'm close to 30%. Does anyone know what could be causing this and any potential fixes ??
[Moto G4 Play Questions & Answers] DB126:
Install GSAM (easier to use) or BBS (bit more advanced) from the Play Store to help identify the culprit. Stock Nougat places no unusual drains on the device. We have a pair of Harpia's that perform notably better after updating to Android 7.x. The behaviors you describe are symptomatic of a failing battery.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] kinetiq:
Hi,

I've just set up my Axon7 from scratch, after it returns from service, and set up new unlock pattern. I admit, I must've been drunk or something, because can't remember the pattern itself. Currently I unlock the phone with fingerprint sensor.

Is it possible to change/remove the unlock method without factory reset? As I said, the phone reads my fingerpritnts fine.

Thank's for any advice
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] dr3am_r:
1. Boot to TWRP

2. In File Manager go to the /data/system folder. Scroll down and find the two files with the .key extension. Delete both of them (by tapping on the file and then tapping the <Delete> button). Then, delete all the files containing the word locksettings:

gatekeeper.password.key

gatekeeper.pattern.key

locksettings.db

locksettings.db-shm

locksettings.db-wal

3. Reboot system.

Has anyone been able to assign close to a hardware button in WM6? I don't mean the <OK/Close> option in the Buttons settings, as that only minimizes the program. I know that HTC X-Button and other task managers can do it by using the stylus or finger, but I'm trying to simplify it.

Any ideas/suggestions?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] jwzg:
Decompress and copy the program and .ini to your programs folder and run. When held down, the right softkey will close most any program. Holding down the left softkey will activate the start menu and the volume switch will scroll.

btw, just to put a different pov on it since ive used smartskey and dont like having to hold the button down... i always assign button four to ok/close which does minimize, but i install pbar 1.5 as well. it responds well with just a thumbpress in the upper right, and so i periodically press the close all button one handed. also handy for restarting and having a top battery bar that looks good and is not multicolored... although i guess i never really thought of using both :p

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] KLit75:
I was considering 2 phones: Pixel 2 xl or OP5T

The price tag for Pixel 2 is really giving me pause.

The lack of project treble and supposed poor customer service is making me rethink OP5T.

So judging on value and developer support, the original Pixel might be the way to go.

Is there anything I should know about this device from people who have owned it for a year or more?

I'm especially cautious when it comes to battery degradation. I'm sure I'd still be using my Nexus 6p (happily) if the battery wasn't garbage. Switched to S7 Edge in July and HATE it. Bootloader locked and root only if you use a laggy engineering kernel. I can't wait to ditch it but having a hard time deciding which device to buy.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance guys!
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Elixir_:
I actually switched from an S7 edge (exynos) to a Pixel XL last year and I can say that I don't regret it.

To resume, the Pixel XL is still a great phone. It still has a solide performance (never had an issue when it comes to that), the camera is still better than most of the cameras of 2018 smartphones and its constantly getting support and updates from Google (until fall 2018).

However, when it comes to battery life I noticed an important degradation. I was getting more than 8h of SOT in about 1d and 1/2 when the phone was new, now I'm having a hard time to reach 6h on stock firmware (you can always fix this with root).

One other downside compared to the S7 edge is the heating. The temperature of my my S7 edge never exceeded 38° C even when playing graphic hungry games in summer, with the Pixel XL it can go much higher than that which causes fast battery drain when gaming.

I hope this can help you ;)
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] KLit75:
It does help. Thanks!

As for battery degradation, you can run an app called accubattery. It needs like 24 hrs or so to get a proper reading but will measure your battery's total capacity.

My Nexus 6p was at 50% after only 1 year. I was 2 days out of warranty and Huawei refused to do anything.

This is why Huawei Mate 9 is not on my shortlist of phones to buy.

Thanks again for the info!
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ithehappy:
If you can't get the Pixel 2 then definitely go for the Pixel 2016. It's holding up very good for me too. Great camera still, fantastic smoothness still, and it will be supported for next six months too. I will be using mine for another year at least.

Just those infamous hardware problems you pray that you never face, like that microphone issue.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] hijax2001:
I switch phones regularly, and had an S8+, then an iPhone X, and now a Pixel XL (that I picked up in like new condition for less than $300 on eBay...). And while I would prefer the taller, more modern display of the Pixel 2, this was a great bargain. I agree with a prior reply, that it's comforting to receive all of the latest updates. Battery life seems as good as any other Android I've had recently. I also agree that it's still an excellent camera for its age. Live wallpaper was a pleasant surprise. If you're a case fan, there are more brand name cases available for the Pixel 2 XL...
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] tekanina:
We should still get security patches til Oct 2019 though still. Hoping they keep major updates rolling too with treble and all would be a waste to only support this device for 2 years. Hopefully with treble though we can still get unofficial updates even if it just aosp for a good while and there's always lineage and other custom ROMs.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] DarthJabba9:
Apparently, Google have started blocking GAPPs on uncertified devices (you won't be able to login to your Google account from the devices) - see https://www.xda-developers.com/google-blocks-gapps-uncertified-devices-custom-rom-whitelist/

Users of custom ROMs can apply to have their device ID whitelisted (up to a limit of 100 times). For those who do a lot of flashing of custom ROMs and wiping data, that 100 limit can be reached very quickly. I wonder whether the time is approaching to dump GAPPs in favour of microG.

My question is - which Oreo ROMs for Mido currently support microG? Perhaps we could start to compile a list here for the day when the possibly inevitable need to dump GAPPs arises?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] zenjedi:
Thanks for creating this thread! You beat me to it :laugh:

Based on my tests, the following roms have inbuilt support for Microg (thanks to devs who added support on request)

Cardinal

Lineage 15 by Alexey711 (thanks for adding microg)

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] MyNameIsRage:
Firehound also does.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] DarthJabba9:
Wow! Thanks guys! Please keep the list coming!

Some questions:

1. When I first started reading up on microG, it seemed that installing it could be a very convoluted affair. But it seems that matters may have now been simplified greatly by contributors. Is this now simply a case of installing NanoDroid and everything is okay (i.e., goodbye GAPPs forever)?

2. Just for the avoidance of doubt (and errors) does this require a fresh (and clean) installation of the supported ROMs?

3. Is microG compatible with Treble ROMs?

4. Is SuperSU and/or Magisk supported?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] krasCGQ:
1. You still need to configure and check if all things required by microG is properly configured.

2. Absolutely.

3. I see no compatibility regressions.

4. It doesn't require root to work.

For ROM that doesn't support signature spoofing and it's deodexed, you can use NanoDroid Patcher to patch system frameworks in order to support signature spoofing.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] zenjedi:
1. Few things to consider - access to playstore (esp. paid apps), location apis along with contacts & calendar sync. If you need these, then it can't be goodbye google forever. Plus some of these elements require a couple of more steps during installation.

Nanodroid gives the option to install it all in one go - gync, location backends, maps v1, etc. Contact and calendar sync can be solved by hosting all these in a private server, e.g., nextcloud. I was using davdroid sync for accessing my contacts associated with my gmail id without having to install gsync.

2. There are options that can remove gapps from existing installation. However, I have not explored it as of now. I'd recommend fresh installation.

3. Not tried, but it should be. Technically, you are removing google play services and the apps associated with it.

4. Yes, works with both. There is no dependency as such.

Edit: Technically, nanodroid is used to patch roms that don't have signature spoofing. None of the oreo roms are deoxed so its essentially useless for ones that don't have inbuilt signature spoofing. However, for ones that have, it makes it easier to install microg and playstore as system apps. Location backends are supposed to work better that way.

I found this to be a very useful resource during my research - https://shadow53.com/android/no-gapps/setup-guide/
