[General Questions and Answers] fhutt:
I don't believe that I am using contacts from SIM but the phone.

But, how do I tell?

I can't find that setting either.

I am using Android V6.0.1 (Marshmallow).

Edit: Just noticed that a picture is indeed showing but it is so dark that I didn't notice it before. However, I also notice on the picture there is a word written saying "Unknown" in the middle of the picture. What does that mean?
[General Questions and Answers] fhutt:
Just updated the stock Phone app and the picture now shows correctly.

However, the sticking problem of the "Unknown" is still shown.

I have attached a screenshot of the phone's call screen showing the picture and the word "Unknown" in the middle". I have blurred the phone number and street name.

Hope this helps someone point me to find the cause of this.
[General Questions and Answers] James_Watson:
If all your incoming calls are showing as unknown, contact your service provider and ask if there is a problem with your account (service?) as it may not be a problem in your phone.

But if only incoming calls from some particular contact are showing as unknown, contact this guy and ask if he/she has hidden his/her caller id in his/her phone settings.

For example, setting to turn off Caller ID on a Huawei P9 as below.

Open Phone app,

then tap Menu icon > Settings > Additional Settings > Caller ID > Hide Number

Be aware that the number is only hidden on Voice calls not on SMS/MMS.
[General Questions and Answers] fhutt:
I think I may have tracked down the problem.

It's not the account or service provider.

I use a 3rd party lock screen (Start). I didn't think about looking at this because the incoming caller screen is generated by the default google phone app. But, if I disable the Start lock screen and go to the default screen the incoming caller screen does not have the "Unknown" banner. Therefore, I believe that the Start lock screen intercepts the incoming caller screen and inserts the "Unknown" banner for some reason. I am unable to find any setting in Start to remove this so I have emailed the authors and now have to wait for their response.

While I am on the incoming caller screen, where can I find the settings for the incoming caller screen?

Hello guys, thank you for viewing the topic..

I really need your help, my note 4 (SM-N910F) had a custom ROM (lineage os MM) and I've decided to revert it back to stock, what I did was reset the phone to stock state in rom settings, after I did that, k deleted anything else in the phone, personal info I mean.

Then, I've downloaded a stock rom + Odin 3.07 and what I did was I put the phone on download mode, opened Odin and connected my phone (I installed Kies for the drivers) and k load the AP with the firmware and I checked ap's box, then I clicked on start... The phone is now stuck in Samsung booting icon and I don't know what did I do wrong.. even though it said "Pass!" In the odin flashing process

Please help!!!! Thank you. :)

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] alphamode:
In my apartment I have been getting about 1 or 2 bars with TMobile. I call TMobile and end up getting a signal booster. The problem is when I got the signal booster hooked up it's saying it's getting a full 5 bars of lte in the same spot my phone is only getting 2 at most. So the booster won't actually boost because it says the signal is good, but my phone basically has dial up speeds. The way Thia looks is it's a problem with my phone but I don't understand what it could be. I'm running OmniRom with the current recommended firmware. Anybody got any idea on how I could remedy this situation? I already looked up the signal boosters supported bands and they're just 2/4/12 which is all supported by the mix 2. I don't have WiFi so this is basically my only option to watch anything online

Hi, I know some Samsung devices have a screen recorder installed by default, but that isn't the case for me. I've tried to port it with apks multiple times, and none of those times has it actually worked. When I use an app activity launcher to access the settings activity and the record one, it either doesn't do anything, or starts recording and then there's no way to stop it, and I find third party ones jot as good, as they don't record sound unless I record external audio with the microphone, so I would be thankful to anyone who provides a non-root alternative/solution, because it is a really useful feature to have, (that's why it is a standard feature in many phones)

Thanks to everyone who helps :)

i had magisk installed and root hide enabled ,even though the tez app detects that i am on custom rom or root.

when ever I open camera in my one plus 5,it makes a hissing noise,like some fan starts rotating inside the phone.

it doesnot happen for the front camera,it only happens if i open the back camera

does anyone have the same issue?

previously I did not have this problem.

Is this a software issue?or a hardware issue?

I can hear the noise,if I place my ear to the back of the phone.

Is it due to autofocus of the camera??

[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] QuikxAndro:
Thank you all for the very educational threads on these forums! I've had an Honor 5x for a little over a year for international travel (U.S.) and decided to finally unlock the bootloader. Unfortunately all the links found on previous threads are inactive, returning "page invalid," "Page not found," "404 Error."

(e.g., "remove /en from the link to go to the Chinese page" "set up a Huawei account and the link is on the top right")

I've also read about using DC-Unlocker, and it seems that method is not working as previously successful.

Are there current methods of unlocking the bootloader to unleash my phone? I've seen a couple posts about contacting support and that some CSA's respond saying they do not unlock phones anymore because it voids the warranty or some nonsense.

Does FRP Lock change with an unlocked bootloader?

Use the unofficial method with dc unlocker for 4 euro. Even when official links worked, they refused to give me the unlock code.

Keep in mind that some newer official updates make deep changes and custom roms result in bootloop.

I finally gave up and with a lot of difficulty restored official 6.0.1 rom, rooted, deleted bloatware, installed adaway against ads. Supersu works only up to ver. 2.49 I had to find a modded supersu zip to prevent its update because it updated even if set to not update automatically.
[Amazfit] firoz3321:
Hi i have stratos with English firmware.

Is there a way to install APK directly from watch? Without usb connected to PC.

I transferred apk but i am unable to install, the installer crashes everytime.

Is there an easier way to install apk from Android mobile?

Or is there an android adb?

Thanks in advance.

Also my battery is 1 day with GPS always OFF and heartrate always ON. Is this normal?
[Amazfit] shadowcaster666:
I have the Pace not the Stratos but I don't think that you can install apps from the watch. It is possible on the Pace to use ADB to enable "unknown sources" and then attempt to install apks from the internal memory, but due to the screen size the installer does not show correctly and it is impossible to finish installing the app.

I would think that results on the Stratos would be very similar even if you found an apk that is compatible it.
[Amazfit] firoz3321:
I dont have screen size issues, it says installation protected and asks to press ok to install and continue (something similar) then intaller crashes.
[Amazfit] anox:
Sounds like you got a permission issue.

Have you tried one of these?

adb shell settings put global install_non_market_apps 1

or

adb shell settings put secure install_non_market_apps 1

If you still get a similar error, then you may need root.
[Amazfit] firoz3321:
Ok, so after setting both settings menrioned by you i can see the install screen. And unfortunately as you mentioned i cannot see the install button :(

My watch has 3 buttons and none of them do the CLICK action.

Thank you for the adb commands
[Amazfit] firoz3321:
Is ther a shell command see all the supported settings?
[Amazfit] sonicscrewup:
I know this is so late but I came across this in my journey to update watch droid assistant.

type the commands they gave you to enable unknown sources, then type adb shell wm density 150, this makes the screen show enough to hit install.

then type adb shell wm density 238 to return to the normal resolution. I know this still requires a computer to keep normal density but there is technically a way.
[Amazfit] firoz3321:
If we have access to PC then there are easier methods to install apk isn't it?
[Amazfit] sonicscrewup:
In most cases yes, in my case no. I had updated the companion app on my phone, so my watch version was incompatible, instead of revert the phone app, I decided to force the watch to allow me to install. Changing the resolution worked like a charm.

APK installer is easier if you can get the latest apk to your computer, but i could only get it via the app pushing it to the watch.
[Amazfit] anox:
Here is an easy way to install an app on the watch without any screen size issue:

- install the wear part of this-> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sssemil.advancedsettings&hl=en

When installing an apk on the watch using any file manager, just select Advanced Settings instead of the default Package Installer.
[Amazfit] lfom:
Works, but root on watch is required. So it's clear that people with stock firmware (or even common custom ROM with just adb root) cannot use this. ;)

By the way, it seems that if you get adb root and add the permission to install 3rd party apps on watch then it works... I haven't tested this yet tho.
[Amazfit] anox:
Apparently, sonicscrewup already has all what is required :)
[Amazfit] carloscolhao:
hi,

anox suggested to install the wear part of this https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...settings&hl=en (

Advanced Settings for Watch) in order to install apk in the watch without pc

but where to find the apk intended to install on the watch (because the

"Advanced Settings for Watch" usually installs on the phone, and then transfers the wear part to the watch)?

I figured it out, probably is not the easier way to do it.

you decompile the phone apk (using apk easy tool), then you will find the wear apk inside the res/raw folder.

you can install it on the watch directly, or probably better, convert it first using this tutorial (https://xdaforums.com/smartwatch/amazfit/android-wear-apps-to-android-read-apk-t3726835)

the "Advanced Settings for Watch" works well in the amazfit to install apks, and to do other things, but of course, there are many features making the app to crash.

cheers
[Amazfit] anox:
Yah, I sometimes leave something out. There are already several threads talking about how to install Android Wear app on this watch.

Anyway, an APK file is just a normal compressed ZIP file. So, the quick & easy way to install the wear part of Android Wear app is to:

- Change the file extension from "apk" to "zip"

- Extract the zip file and get the wear APK file inside the res/raw folder to install on the watch

Personally, I don't use any tool or recompile any Android Wear app in order to just install on the watch. I don't see any real world result difference. :)
[Amazfit] carloscolhao:
Thanks.

I did not realise an apk could be decompressed as a simple zip. Good to know :)

Wanted to understand if this setting is maintained across firmware updates. I have a very poor data connection with my charger and this setting is a savior, along with File Manager+. So was wondering if I'm going to lose this at every update.
[Amazfit] adityavaidya:
Just found this thread tucked away and it works perfectly. No fiddling with any poor USB connections anymore. It's by XDA user zmad2000

https://xdaforums.com/smartwatch/amazfit/amazfit-pace-enable-app-list-install-t3639617

Here's the solution just to ensure that it's archived.

Edit: What I've found is that once you enable developer mode, adb over WiFi is automatically enabled. You don't seem to need that file to be present. Only problem is that adb is now enabled over WiFi at all times when the watch is connected. So there is a security risk, albeit a small one because I'd only connect my watch to my home WiFi.

So all that's required is:

Go to Settings->About

Tap on the Serial number 7 times

Ensure the watch is connected to the same WiFi as your computer

Type adb connect (ip address of watch)
[Amazfit] apgeo:
but are you able to install applications directly from the watch?

I did everything but when I try to install using "advanced settings" I always see the word "working" but the installation process never ends
[Amazfit] lfom:
It only works with root, or if you use a modded PackageManager, used in some custom ROMs, after allowing 3rd party APKs installations (non-Market security check).

[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] eeansa:
Does someone know for sure if 7 plus supports Aptx HD codec? GSMArena specs say that it does, but product's own specification page doesn't say anything about it. It's not listed in aptx.com as compatible device and I haven't seen any review mention it. I know that Google added support for Oreo, but do all devices support all added codecs? I suspect that my Moto Z that was recently upgraded to Oreo doesn't support aptx HD. My reason for looking new phone is really sub-par battery life of Moto Z and it's lagginess even after factory reset, which has to be related to it's software as my wife's Oneplus 3 with same chipset runs like a charm. And Aptx HD support is kind of a dealbreaker for me.

Connect 1000XM2 with NFC

Contact Sharing

At this moment only SBC was supported. It showed "Streaming: SBC" in developer options. No matter if I selected "LDAC"

In Sony Headphones App, select "Priority on sound quality" instead of "Priority on stable connection".

Bluetooth options:

Phone calls

Media Audio

HD Audio: LDAC

Contact Sharing

After this moment, it showed "Steaming: LDAC" in developer options.

With the Nokia 7 Plus:

In bluetooth options "HD Audio: AAC" appears instead of LDAC after selection "priority on sound quality". Even if I select aptx, aptxHD or LDAC. It always stays on AAC.

Nokia's chat support told me that aptx, aptxHD and LDAC are not supported for the Nokia 7 Plus. It really is misleading because many site (bluetoothchecker, GSMArena etc) state that it does support these codecs.

[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] seatsea:
Well considering it's only able to use AAC or SBC, I do find it to sound a bit worse on some tracks... It's not a massive difference and I don't really mind it that much but it's a shame to be losing quality when using high end headphones.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] emperor8696:
Isn't AAC or SBC is basically buffer size? What I wanted to know is the quality of raw sound output from the 7 plus compared to your other devices.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] seatsea:
What do you mean? When listening over Bluetooth, you have to convert to one of the supported codecs unless, there's no "raw". The advantage of something like LDAC or AptX is that it's almost lossless so it doesn't really degrade the audio quality like the other codecs do.

If you're talking about using the audio jack, it's ok, I've heard better out of phones though...
