[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] s0nixx:
It's a new phone that was factory sealed. The colour is even different. When I wipe it clean it disappears but after rubbing with a finger a few times it reappears again.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] arnes_king:
First of all, do not get offended, but do you wash your hands? How in the earth do you get the display on both phones so dirty, it seems at it does not have any oleophobic coating at all? Try to wash the phone in clear water, and see if the problem is still there. Also wash your hands, and try not to make the phone dirty, I have never seen so much dirt on a phone overall!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Neo_Sk8eR:
I returned an s9 plus that had this exact same issue. I thought it was me
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] s0nixx:
Sorry, but are you making fun of me? I wash my hands multiple times during the day but unfortunately, I have sweaty fingers so what can I do? It's summer. Do you think you can keep your phone in the same condition as you took it from the box? That way you need to clean it every 10min... Washing does nothing however when you wash it water stays in that spot meaning there's no coating in that area.

Also, I went to my electronics store to check the devices on display and sure enough one had the same issue in the same spot. 100% lottery and manufacturing defect + horrible QC from Samsung.

The only way I see to resolve the problem is to apply a screen protector but personally, I hate them so I think I'll have to live with it. A replacement won't fix the issue and could even make it worse.

Like I said it's a lottery.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] arnes_king:
I was not making fun with you, I am sorry if it did seem like it. I understand sweaty fingers on summer time, but the phone is also on the bezels with something on it (dust or some particles), that is the reason why I mentioned it. Also, your both phones from the pictures look anyway waaay to smudgy all over the display, for me it is like the oleophobic coating is not there at all. I also have sweaty fingers and such but never, never had a display or phone looking like that, so it is for sure a manufacture defect.

As for the replacement unit, why do you think that it wont fix the issue and probably would make it worse?

If I was in your situation I would take it back and request a third device which does not have that fault. I have seen many S9/+ devices but none of it had such issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Oyeve:
All of my phones have this. For me, its the diamond stud I wear on my left ear. Doesnt scratch but puts a "mark" on all my phones in the exact same place. Clean off looks fine, run greasy finger and they all smudge on the same spot. Most likely the diamond earring rubs off the invisible coating.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] crossdeath:
Ask for another replacement. This is unacceptable for a premium device like the s9+.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] yuppicide:
I only hit reply so I could ask how dirty are you, but I see someone has already beat me to it. No problems with my screen.. not to mention it's older than yours and cleaner without me doing anything.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtfoohd:
Hi,

I have to make a fresh, clean install on my phone, which brings me to a question: Are there huge differences between AICP and LOS when it comes to proprietary software? I'd really like to keep my phone as Google free and tracking free as possible. I've read that there is some removable Google code in Lineage OS. How about AICP? Is there any ROM that's 100% tracking free out of the box?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] jazacoop:
Hi,

Is there a way to edit the action screen app so when you click 'new appointment', 'new task', 'new note' etc it opens in Pocket Informant 8 rather than the default apps??

I'm assuming it would require registry changes, so any pointers as to which entries to change would be much appreciated.

Also, for those not using Pocket Informant, you should check it out. It is much more powerful and much more useful than the default calendar, notes and tasks apps.

Solution: I've managed to solve the problem. Here is a solution for all those interested.

Use a reg editor to navigate to HKLM\Software\HTC\Biotouch\ActionScreen

In there you will find a folder for each shortcut on the Action Screen menu (titled APP_0 - APP_6).

To fix the New Appointment shortcut, select the APP_3 folder. Scroll down and find the entry titled 'path' and change the value data to......

If Pocket informant was installed on your storage card: \Storage Card\Program Files\WebIS\PocketInformant\Pocketinformant.exe

If Pocket informant was installed on your device: \Program Files\WebIS\PocketInformant\Pocketinformant.exe

Save the entry and then select the APP_4 folder to fix the tasks shortcut. Find the 'path' entry and once again change the value data to the same entry as you used for the Appointment shortcut.

Repeat for the APP_6 folder if you want to fix for Contacts.

I have not worked out how to redirect the notes shortcut, other than having it open the notes program (i.e. it will open the notes section, but not automatically create a new note) but to be honest, this doesn't bother me. If you want it to open the notes in Pocket Informant, open the APP_5 file and change the path once again. Then open the param entry and modify the data to -custom 44555.

I'm sure it is possible to have it open a new note, but I didn't put the effort into discovering the required parameter (because as I said, it doesn't bother me).

SOFT RESET your device and the links will now properly work :)

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] PNGC:
Hey guys. I just got a new Pixel 2 XL from a European seller (Alza) and my GPS isn't working (it can see the satellites but cannot lock onto any). I've seen that flashing a factory image solves this problem.

However, I can't unlock my boot loader. On developer options the option is greyed out and says "Connect to the internet or contact your carrier".

I've seen people mention that if it's locked it's Verizon... However, I'm in Europe? Also I'm using a European SIM card just fine? Would this phone still have any chance of being a Verizon somehow? Lol.

Please help. Thanks.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] PNGC:
SOLVED:

I reset the phone. Still greyed out. I inserted my country's SIM card for the first time just now. Still greyed out. Finally, I did another reset (from the settings menu, always) and the phone when setting up was already in my language, and the OEM unlock option was now available. Dunno what happened but yeah, if someone in the future is in this situation, there you go.

Hi guys, today I installed substratum and andromeda to my Xiaomi Black Shark device, applied pitch black substratum theme and rebooted my device. After reboot my device now stuck on blank screen "system ui stopped". Now fastboot and adb commands are not working because of unauthorized error (which I allowed before). :crying::crying::crying:

You need FX file explorer - it can move files & folders without root. So you open /root directory & copy /system and /vendor folders to external, or internal sd. Pack it up & upload to any cloud drive you can)

Try making system & vendor folders on sdcard, open orignal ones & try copying folders with files to created ones, not every file would be copied, but this should work

i did all the steps now the camera won't take a picture at all ? any thoughts
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] netwave:
Yeah same here, TWRP works a treat but the stock camera app wont take a picture so not even as far as a green pic lol

Tried other camera apps also like Camera FV-5 but same issue..

So the DRM fix kernal is exclusive for either G8141 or G8142

but the DRM patch fixes both G8141 & G8142 phones?

Can someone confirm please
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] davethemac2016:
my guess is G8141 as i have the dual sim and it did not work same issues as you i did also reflash my phone that did not help either
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion] netwave:
I flashed the G8141 file for my single sim phone

---------- Post added at 04:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:02 PM ----------

Sorted the issue...

The DRM fix download link from above was the problem, If you get the latest XperiFIX tool you can get your camera working on the latest firmware build as I just did.

Although to date XperiFIX does not work for me as a standalone tool the latest build in the settings tab has a list of supported devices with links to the TWRP images, DRM XperiFIX files etc.

Just copy & paste your phones column to notepad & seperate the links, your looking for the XperiFIX.zip link

Being that the DRM XperiFIX kernel belongs to STORM it's better to just buy the latest tool, rather than me share his work & cut his profits.

Thanks Blackghosthm for this useful post, it helped me figure out the problem I've had since unlocking my bootloader

A little confused by the variety of responses. So, it's just Magisk 16.4 that isn't compatible with 8142? Just trying to sort out which circumstances work. I have the 8142 and am looking for a simple way to patch the DRM issues without going too far from stock.

[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] monkey_nutts:
hello :)

my hardware buttons appear to have stopped working for no apparent reason, and ive had to switch on the software navigation buttons. I have tried to re-flash a couple of different 8.1 roms doing full wipes each time but with no joy.

Is there a way to access (if it even exists) internal hardware diagnostics for this phone, or an app i can run to test it ?

did try a search on here but unless I am being stupid (which is very likely) i didn't see any similar thread.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] ThE_MarD:
Heyyo, hmm darn eh? Well my first suggestion is to please try and reflash stock EUI ROM for your device model. X820 flash a Chinese one, x821 flash Indian or x829 flash NA.

If that doesn't work? You can try and contact the vendor that sold you the phone and ask for QFIL for your device and see if that fixes it. I wouldn't recommend just using any QFIL you find online as some can have compatibility issues as noted by those who suffer the split screen after flashing QFIL.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Total_Lag:
I know the Titan doesn't support USB Host mode, but I've heard there were alternatives like using CF Cards or something. Can anyone give me more details or point me in the direction of how to achieve this? Instead of buying a microSD card, I wouldn't mind just using one of my external HD to hold my stuff. It would be cool to read data off of flashdrives too.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] drew826:
I've never heard mention of any possibilities of USB host on the mogul. If someone does make a USB host CF card (never heard of one), I don't think you're going to find any way to interface it with the mogul. And the mogul probably wouldn't be able to power an external hdd, so you'd have to have a power supply and be tethered to the wall. At that point, you might as well carry a laptop around and store things on it, and just forget about USB host on the mogul.

wow that bluetooth harddrive looks promising, but the speed must suck :/. yea using a laptop would work, but its still too big and uses a lot more power. i had this idea, run mobiletorrent on the phone attached to a harddrive. it would use less power and its still smaller than a laptop.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] madman34:
How much storeage do you need?

I looked at the bluetooth drive also and it looks cool, and probably slow since i think bluetooth is ~700kbps, sort of like the speed you get beaming from one to another with bluetooth, which I do to and from my laptop now and it is kind of creepy slow. If you need more than the 8gigs that a microSD can do for now then that might be the way,,,,,,wait,,,,I remember seeing a shared WiFi drive some place, that would be lots faster i bet.

[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] pzq071:
Hi,

I've recently got a Huawei P20 Pro and it's not receiving any ring notifications when someone rings my ring.com doorbell..

I've had a few instances where the notification has come through as it should, but literally 99% of the time i don't receive any notifications at all.

I've ran through all the steps outlined in their guide (How-to-Troubleshoot-Ring-Notification-Issues-for-Android-Devices - i can't link the URL as i'm a new member here) but none of it has made any difference.

I have checked all permissions, notification settings, disabled them, re-enabled them, cleared cache, cleared data, deleted the app, re-installed, set the "App Launch" options to allow to run in the background - all to no avail.

Got another phone (Samsung S7 Edge) set-up to receive the same notifications from the same doorbell - and that's receiving all of them absolutely fine.

My P20 Pro is running EMUI 8.1.0 and Android version 8.1.0.

I've raised a support ticket with Ring.com, but thought i'd also post here - as it seems likely this may be a P20-specific issue..
