[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] arnes_king:
Hi everyone,

Because my network carrier is really slow when it comes to update, they are always in a backlog of a few months, I decided to flash the newest stock firmware from another unbranded region in order to get updates faster.

So first, I wanted to ask what the latest firmware is, and what region is best to flash (maybe BTU?).

Second questions is, how can I flash the newer stock firmware but without loosing anything from my phone and without a factory reset?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] buddy66:
I asked for the same because I want to update via OTA without having to format data partition afterwards. Currently I got no answer :(
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] nadiration:
I go cover-less with my oneplus 5t and I always slide it over tables and the floor but my friend keeps saying that I should get a case because the sliding scratches the camera lens and the overall phone. Is that true, should I get a cover? Do you use a case or a cover on your phone?

Thanks, that was not helpful. I could have googled it or searched on YouTube thus i wanted real life answers from real people
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] Jeevvert:
I don't use cases either. Have the phone loose in my pocket with a metallic object. Camera looks like new after four months.

It is small and has a bump you have to go out of your way to damage it.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] xgerryx:
So you want someone to say it's gorilla glass 5 and should scratch the same way the screen would? Like do some research. It'll be safe from knives and keys and junk, but sand and minerals can still scratch it. It's literally the same glass as the screen is made out of. If you don't use a case, the camera bump causes the phone to be wobbly on a flat surface and the entire phone is slippery AF, so get a case.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] null0seven:
In advertisement, all the phones are hard... In real life you better not try.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] Tiz92:
No scratch after 7 Months.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] nguyenlucky:
Does it have sapphire cover, like the 3T?
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] kolembo:
I have to say both the screen and the body are very scratch resistant.

Normal user for since release, red, without a case, not a single scratch on either.

Latest vendor from Muravilijay from CRDroid 8.1 + Havoc GSI android 9.0 is a dream that came true.

This sleek, light and budget phone now operates smoothly and so good, that my 500+ euro friends envy.

Yes, its has SD 450, but for average Joe you wouldn't know about it.

Yes its camera is not a miracle but we can use Google Camera 6.x which does alot of magic!

Love this phone.
[Beetles] nauseum:
Just to let you guys know, i have a 6515f which i love, but it developed a battery issue about 6 months after i bought it, at first i thought the phone was buggy because it would "brown out" if i treid to run media player or tomtom or anything that requied a bit of juice. I bought a new battery after folllowing a previous thread in this forum, and lo and behold, my issues went away................for 6 months then back to normal, crashing and brown outs. I bought a thicker battery (2500ma) than the standard 1300ma one off ebay from hong kong and i have not had any issues since. my assumption from this, is that htc/HP designed a phone/pda that had too high power requirements for the battery supplied :(

(hp's official stance on this is that the pins on the battery cover are worn and dont make proper contact to seal the power circuit. You can send it in to them to get a new back (and new battery) but take my word on it, it will do the same in 6 to 8 months.)

NOTE: 6515 does not experience these "brown out" issues while connected to external power source (irrespective of the "bad" case pins) :)

Upshot of this has been that while my phone now works well, it doesnt fit in my car charger or the desktop cradle because of the thicker battery, reducing its usefullness to me. I am ripping out the sim and buying a p3600i to replace it.

Hope the info about the 2500ma battery helps anyone having "brown out" issues

Edit: the p3600i proved unreliable as a gps so im still using the 6515 :)
[Beetles] coolVariable:
Have the same issue.

where can you get the battery replaced?

I have a 2 year 6515 that works perfectly otherwise.

It heats up in sunny days. Before 2 days i was in city and just standing there, my Rosy's battery heated from 33 degrees to 40 degrees in just 3 minutes. That is not cool, i needed to turn him off to cool down. While gaming he is cool, not like P8 Lite 2015 who heats up that much that you can not hold him in your hands. While charging he is cool too. (Around 32 degrees).

hi

I recently bought a plantronics pulsar 590a Bluetooth strereo headset

and I have Prophet Shadow Vista Clean<UC-Capable>"a Colaboration Rom with iiiox"(08.3.08)

but the quality is not good at all

what setting or program should I use to send the music over the bt and raise the quality ?

thanks.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] ycimpir:
Srs Wow Hd

I also recently bought a plantronics pulsar 590a Bluetooth strereo headset :D

I am using "ShadoW 2.0 TE Vista My Edition".

I can suggest you SRS WOW HD I attached.. :cool:
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] ahwaztaxi:
thank you very very much

but how do you send the music to the stereo BT ?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] ycimpir:
BT settings

I know so far log way ;)

Goto BT settings-->Device..

Press long to 590Plantronics..

A menu will open..

Click "Set as wireless Stereo" :D

For using SRS WOW HD, reboot your device after installation..

Goto Settings-->System-->WOW HD Settings ;)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] ycimpir:
another way..

Or if you use BatteryStatus, activate tray launch and then click BT icon and click A2DP :D
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] John-Wu:
be carefull with this tool. You should deactivate afer use, because many people already said,that this tool force your speaker too much, and the speaker will break.

John
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] ahwaztaxi:
thank you all very much

the quality is fantastic and I think it's even better than the adaptor itself.

I was just about to ask if I should leave it enabled or not.

then you said it. thanks
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] secoseco:

That's true, this app break my Jamin speaker, never never use it with internal speaker, but it's great with wire and wireless speakers

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] redandr:
For the optimal result with your bt headset i recommend you Shaps Advanced Configuration Tools (see developers forum). With my SonyEricsson HBH-DS970 the sound quality is much better then using srs wow.

thanks for schaps advanced config

but i dont know which version to install ?

and which settings to change ?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] rondol1:
I would suggest you install the latest version. And for the settings to change: the utility is pretty self-explaining. Just play with it and you will find out what suites you best.

I don't think this tool was adviced to you as a specific solution to a specific problem but more as an advanced toolbox wich me help you out.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] ahwaztaxi:
THANK YOU rondol

but I don't see anything more than bt device name and obex in any part of the program version 2.02.1.0.0

where else ?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] rondol1:
I don't use this tool, but installed version 2.02.0.2.0 to have look at its settings. Under Bluetooth i find 7 different types of settings. One of them is Use Joint Stereo, I guess thats the one you need, but I don't know for sure. I'm not very familiar with Bluetooth. The other setting are relate to the Bitpool.... no idea what that means!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] ahwaztaxi:
ok first of all thanks a alot for your response and your patience

but i had the same version and even install your file over

but i only have 2 settings in the bt part of the program

so nothing for me

anyway thanks again
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] rondol1:
Seems to me something is missing on your phone.... Perhaps you need to hard reset or even reflash it.... :(
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] ahwaztaxi:

can I use microsoft voice command on my device with the stereo headset ?

do i need something to use coice command over bt ?

I am going to hardreset now
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] ahwaztaxi:
yes thats right i still have that problem with the latest cloudyfa rom

maybe we should use a different xml file ...

or take one of them from someone who has it working
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] ahwaztaxi:
ok still no news about the missing BT setting in our device ?

they say no news is good news , but until now its not for me.

ok but I found those setting in another program called : htcteakwui

now what configuration should I use and what do they mean ?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] cheguevara:
why don't you use the SRS WOW HD? It has been working pretty well for me and it is easy to use. give it a try. just make sure you have to soft reset after install and you will see it in setting --> system

10.00 hours SOT (moderate usage, removed bloatware, low-medium brightness), amazingly good battery life!
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 Real Life Review] iamboredatwork:

You can use apps like Lucky Patcher if you're rooted. If not, you can follow this tutorial - https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/

[Xiaomi Redmi 5 Real Life Review] iMohnishpratap:
I have 2gb/16gb verient.

Lets start with charging-

redmi takes 2 hours from 0 to 100%. First 90% charged in 90 minutes.

Battery Backup- I got around 12:30 hours of Screen on time.

Usage- Browsing (Kiwi browser in night mode) and youtube most of the time. rest music and tried a game for 30 min (Honkai Impact 3rd) as game was lagging so i uninstalled it. Sync was on for 3-4 hours and location services was turned off.

Brightness- 40-50%

Data Usage- 70% wifi and 30% 4G/3G

Note- Those charging curves in the graph are from the pc as i was transfering some files and second time i was debloating the device. No Battery saving mode, No change for animations.
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 Real Life Review] Xhah:
From what I've gathered; the SOT of this phone is great but...

What about stand-by time?

Can anyone tell me how much battery percentage the phone looses at night (~8 Hours)?

To me, anything beyond ~5% with 3G cellular data turned on (4G is overrated!) is unacceptable.
[Xiaomi Redmi 5 Real Life Review] mscalindt:
Without sync, wi-fi and cellular data, it drains 1% per 10 hours for me. With sync and cellular data/wi-fi, it would drain 3-4% per 10 hours.

That's quite impressive, I must say.

*2018 Bezel less like approach with a bad Chin

*Metal like Body( it's not metal)

[Xiaomi Redmi 5 Real Life Review] niiazakunov:
IMHO it looks really good for that price.

- Never thought that I'll have a full-screen experience until I'll buy at least a mid-range priced phone. Ultrabudget device? Woah.

- The body feels solid. Back plate is metal and the edges are plastic, including the antenna parts.

- I love the screen. 720p resolution doesn't really bother until you look really closely, and that works fine for me. The IPS matrix is better than on previous models. You can see that black colours are darker and less blue-ish. Max brightness does great on a sunny day.

- The camera/led/fp sensor part is really good. It looks better than on RN4X, it looks more mid-range than ultrabudget. My device is black btw.

The only thing that I don't like is the side bezels, but I guess it's ok for a 120$ device. Top/bottom bezels are nice
