Oh so you got a corrupted mssg as well

Here it is

Just download the factory image

And flash it

You will lose all your data but it will work
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] rickysidhu_:
Or he could edit the flash-all, removing the -w to save his data.

Or even flash just the vbmeta image and see if that removes the corrupt message on boot.

No need to resort to the extreme solutions right off the bat!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
Well that didn't worked for me i had to clean flash so that's why i said it

But it might work for him/others, so just saying it's probably quicker and more efficient to try less drastic options first.

I just noticed that I only get the batterycare message when I charge the phone before bed via a cable. When I charge it overnight wirelessly it does. It have the message (how it will charge to 90% by 9am or whatever). Does this mean batterycare isn't working when we charge wirelessly?
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Questions & Answers] auchengyu:
hey... do you know how you got Battery Care to show up? I have my phone for just almost a week now... I charge long overnight before sleep and wake-up around same timing, but still don't have the Battery Care showing up.... I tried toggling off then ON again before sleeping but still doesn't show up... do you know how I should fix this?

I hope it has nothing to do that it's a fast charger right? the standard fast charger that comes with it.....the QC3.0 one..

Thanks

Cheng
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Questions & Answers] LesPaulGuitarPlayer:
I used an XZ and now use an XZ Premium and have found the Battery Care feature frustrating for the reasons you cite. It only works under fairly narrow conditions. And then it has to "relearn" after a factory reset or firmware flash. :mad::rolleyes:

My workaround is plug my phone into a fish aquarium light timer overnight and program it to turn on (begin charging) at a time that results in the phone being at 100% when I wake up. That way the phone doesn't sit on the charger at 100% for hours on end...which is what Battery Care aims to do.

And it works for any phone.

I also use an old Sony Charger from my 2012 Xperia T. It charges really slowly...which results in a lower amount of heat in the battery and hopefully prolongs its lifespan. I don't need fast charging overnight!
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Questions & Answers] chili_red:
I've only been using a wireless charger, "have them all over", since I received the phone and I get the battery care notification when the battery is below 70% otherwise the message doesn't show up.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Questions & Answers] KOLIOSIS:
+1

I don't use Battery Care,just wireless charging, primarily at night, with a table top fan going all night as well.

During workweek usage, I don't even bother topping off nightly, this phone does well between charges to skip a day &/or, just throw it on the charger when I wake up & take it off on my way out the door for the day. I don't worry about having it @ 100%...,50-60% will get me through a 12hr shift w/room to spare.

I have made a new thread as it is very confusing what the best protector for the orbit 2 is as it has the 2nd camera and the speaker is in a different position.

I’m desperate as my original protector fell off :-( going to take my old Orbit 1 out now until I get a new protector.

Any good recommendations?

[Touch Cruise Accessories] Dark Knight:
@Ziggyred - Apols dude, but I'm a little cynical about screen protectors which do not show picutres of the actual device I'm interested in.

I ordered the Brando one for the Orbit II, but to my disspointment, despite it being plugged on Brando.hk's website as being Orbit2 compatible, the top of it is not such a great fit. It looks like it's designed specfically for the Cruise, but not the Orbit II.

Can anyone here categorically state (and show!) protectors specifically designed for the Orbit II ?

Is a perfect fit although was annoyed that I dropped the protector and it got dust on it before I applied it.

Washed it and it is batter.

It fits perfectly, has a cut out for the speaker and the camera.
[Touch Cruise Accessories] Dark Knight:
@KennyDies - How many are in a pack ?

And does it have a high tack adhesion ? I wouldn't want it leaving any residue....

Thanks
[Touch Cruise Accessories] robboy:

[Touch Cruise Accessories] Dark Knight:
Reading through the Ebay link to Exim screen protectors, it appears that it doesn't use any sticky backed adhesion.

Only one is supplied ($$$! :eek:) but I had a look around a few other sites and these protectors seem to be quite rated.

So I bit the bullet and ordered two.
[Touch Cruise Accessories] madhatter_86:
Cheers all. I've bought two as well.

Messed up putting the one in the box on, then bought one which only covered the screen. I can see the silver edge getting scratched, which would be a pity, so I've bought a couple of these whole face jobbies.

Will report back!

[Touch Cruise Accessories] KennyDies:
No, no residue.

Made a rookie mistake, pealed the backing off the protector and put the protector on my desk thinking it was the backing.

It picked up a lot of dust which I washed off and applied again.

Is a good fit with a couple of marks that would not have been there if it were not for my mistake.

Hello all,

Can anyone comment on how well the EXiM deals with fingerprints and smudging ?

Tried washing my original orbit protector today and it looks terrible now.

Nogs
[Touch Cruise Accessories] acocq:
I've used the Exim and the Vikuiti (3M) screen protectors. Both are very good, but I prefer the Exim (although a bit more expensive).

If memory serves, Exim protectors are available in a couple of different versions (different surface characteristics). I got one that is supposed to feel like writing on paper, which I really enjoy.

So what do you mean by "deals with fingerprints..." ? Fingerprints are always an issue ... there's always greasy residue on your skin and that will leave a fingerprint, no matter what. But they are easily wiped off with a lint-free cloth.

Cheers,

Andreas
[Touch Cruise Accessories] landwomble:
brando

the brando ones are cheap and excellent. they come with protective backing on both sides, with a "handle" to make removing it easy without messing up the corners.

tip: clean screen with sticky tape before hand. if you miss a speck of dust and notice after putting the protector on, you can peel up the protector by sticking sticky tape on it near the edge and pulling. remove speck and refit.

the brando ones have a really nice, slick, stylus feel. i like them a lot.
[Touch Cruise Accessories] moduleKev:
I've got the original protector, guess that's Durasec according to an earlier post.

Starting to annoy me more as we get into the summer that I can't see anything on the screen in daylight with the brightness on MAX. Just find the original way too reflective.

Do any of the ones mentioned offer decent anti-reflectiveness? At least better than the original?

Cheers

Kev

[Touch Cruise Accessories] joey jojo:
I dont seem to have got a protector with my o2 orbit 2, should i call o2 and ask for one? do you think they would send me one? and do you think its worth it?(getting one from them) :cool:
[Touch Cruise Accessories] Straputsky:
I personally would say: No!

When I got my device the protector was already installed by the person who tested the mobilphone before. He (or she) did such a good job in installing the protector that I didn't complain about getting a "used" device. :D

Now, we are approaching towards summer and the sun shines more often. Therefore I can't see anything on the display when I'm outside. :(

For me that means that in near future I will change the screen protector with a non reflective one (I hope it will help against the mirror around the display too).

So even if you get one, I wouldn't recommend to install it. I tend to install an Exim Ultraprotect within the next few weeks. (Just my 5 cents...)

Edit: Oh, I just noticed that you are living in UK - so maybe you don't have sun problems... :D

[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DragonFire1024:
Might want to take a look at this thread. Basically you need to edit the manifest of activity launcher to add the permissions in the Amazon Middleware debugging app. I have not been able to get the permissions to be accepted in activity launcher, even if i make it a system app. Seems you need an Amazon Signature. But that aside, those codes are as far as we've gotten thus far.

---------- Post added at 01:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:46 PM ----------

Indeed. I am still trying to find a way to fool the system into thinking an app is a system app, when it's really not. The only success I have had with that, is the SystemUI. With Root, I am able to edit the SystemUI successfully and "update" it successfully by taking the signatures from the Old SystemUI and placing them into the new SystemUI I edited. Essentially open each SystemUI apk as an archive with 7-zip move the certificates and manifest from old apk to new apk and ADB push the SystemUI back. So far have not been successful with this method without root, but has potential.

Is it possible to have factory reset protection (frp) :with custom rom:confused:
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] acejavelin:
Yes and no... If you flash a ROM without Gapps, then no FRP... with Gapps, maybe, depends on the ROM and Gapps package.

FRP is part of Google services in the device, not AOSP Android, so it depends, there is no clear yes or no answer.

Remember, any unlocked device is insecure... period. If you want the protection then stay 100% stock and locked, otherwise your device can be compromised.

These are the steps I followed..

Installed RE from the play store, rebooted fired RE up and granted root access..

Went into fingerprint section and enabled the toggle at the top right, went down to the fingerprint swipe section enabled it then mapped it to scroll down.

Minimised the app, opened Firefox went to BBC news and tried to wipe down on the fingerprint sensor to scroll down.

Nothing happens.

I then thought maybe the sensor isn't reading swipes so enabled single tap mapped it to home, still doesn't work.

How are you managing it ?

You're doing it right. that's exactly what I did. I don't know why it's not working on your phone. I am running LineageOS, maybe that has something to do with it?
