[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] Saktis_STi:
1) There are 2 ways to unlock

Official- This method is very easy (just download the bootloader unlock apk to unlock but this method will void warranty and you will not get any OTA Updates

Unofficial- This method is safe too, but it requires to flash RAW files (this method retains warranty and you will get OTA Updates)

The reason why you should flash Oreo RAW because Factory RAW can only boot FASTBOOT and touch screen will not work.

Just follow my steps and you can install custom ROM without any issues.
[Google Pixel 2 Accessories] gururoop:
Hi. I want to know which is the best cable available for Pixel 2 for connecting to PC in India? I was using original Oneplus 3T cable till now, which was charging the phone normally (not fast and not slowly) and flashed the factory images just fine. But now the pin that goes in the phone got loose and I want to buy a good cable. I tried SmartSmith which is available on Amazon and claims to be USB 3.0 with fast charging but shows 'charging slowly' on ambient display when connected to my laptop's USB 3.0 port. I tried another one from Zebronics from a local shop, which charges normally but is unable to flash factory images. Looking for suggestions from experienced users, preferably with links to purchase, good USB cable for Pixel 2 which supports fast charging as well as flashing factory images. TIA
[Huawei P20 Lite Questions & Answers] GuestK00235:
Hello!

Since the last week, im figuring out between this phone and Nokia 6.1

I really want to buy this phone but then people have reported that the indian variant has lags and not smooth enough. The international variants doesn't seem to have this problem though?.

So is there lags and is it due to the bloat that comes with it? Will the lags go away by disabling and removing the bloat?

Also, there is an option to reduce the screen resolution to save more power, which sure will help with performance a bit. Does it work?

Thanks.

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Haohmaru:
I got my s9+ through Verizon, and the charging port doesn't always work. Sometimes it only works if you plug it in on one direction, sometimes not at all, sometimes you get a moisture warning. So I decided to get a replacement through vzw, but the replacement had noticeably bad colors. I sent that one back and got another, but this one has very noticeable ghosting/trails and black crush. At this point, I think I'll just love with the bad charging. What the hell is up with these screens? Anyone else gotten a warranty replacement and got a really crap screen?

Nah mate, ghosting and black crush is software issue visible mostly when you dim the screen to low levels and that I think is software issue which will be fixed I hope, its already little better on BRE5 update on my exynos s9+ and my phone is brand new. Everyone have the same issue...
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Haohmaru:
I got my third one from VZW and it's the closest to the original screen. Colours aren't as vibrant but there's no black crush, so I'll take it, better than not being able to charge. Not really happy with it but whatever.

[MTCD Android Head Units General] 300cnewbie:
Hi, new on here, looking for help for the following (searching found no solution):

Xtron TE706PL

PX5

Android Oreo 8.0

(let me know if you need more info)

1) A lock screen for the Xtron stock firmware (tried Nova launcher to no avail)

2) WiFi is intermittent (bluetooth is ok), it will work until the car is switched off and then when i switch it back on it stops randomly and won't find any wifi signals (tons in the area). I thought it may be some sort of 'sleep' setting, but it's set to always on under wifi settings. Usually a full reboot of the system activates it again, so possibly a software issue?
[MTCD Android Head Units General] skezza:
I've not seen the WiFi issue you speak of, but it's probably a configuration issue. Have you tried with your phone hotspot rather than random wifi hotspots dotted around?

No idea about a lock screen. Mine doesn't even offer that functionality. Quite frankly, I don't see why anyone would want one lol :D
[MTCD Android Head Units General] 300cnewbie:
There's tons of wifi's in the area, my mobile hotspot, my house + 7 other wifi signals. When it's working it picks all of them up, this is without moving. When it's working i can be on the move with my hotspot and it's ok, as soon as i turn the car off and go to start it again the wifi stops working. Xtron are sending a new aerial, but i do believe it's a software issue.

The lock screen would be ideal to secure the unit if it's stolen or whilst the car is being valeted. Even if an external finger print scanner can be programmed, it would be preferable. There must be something out there, would consider a custom firmware if need be.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] skezza:
It's definitely a software issue. No amount of aerials are going to fix that issue. I would update to the latest MCU and update.zip. Do you know how?

Wow, do you like live in the Bronx lol? :D You're aware if someone wants to steal the unit, they could easily factory reset it then your lock screen will do nothing. Not a clue on the external fingerprint scanner. No idea where you take your car to get it valeted either, but most of the time, you sit in the foyer watching while they do it. That is why they have a big glass window at garages/valet places etc.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] 300cnewbie:
I believe the MCU is the latest version for GS installed MTCE_GS_V2.78_3

However, the android 8.0 version is 15th Jan 2018, which is old.

Reading on the forum, there's a post with android updates on the stock Rom up until March, however no new firmwares posted on there after then. But i know that there is June versions out there, do you know where they will be posted?

https://xdaforums.com/android-auto/...5-mtcd-e-head-unit-discussion-thread-t3734189

Also regarding the lock screen, User Malaysk shows in his custom Rom that lock screen is activated, so it is possible. However, I'd prefer to try a stock Rom first to see if it fixes the WiFi issue, if it doesn't then i can return the unit to the seller. https://xdaforums.com/android-auto/...-malaysk-roms-px5-2-4-gb-8-0-android-t3762724
[MTCD Android Head Units General] smnrock:
Wifi issue is fixed by upgrading/changing MCU. Check out this post, https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=76666402&postcount=547

Try if you have latest version of MCU before trying with some other MCU.

As per this post, https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=76824916&postcount=772

Latest version MCU version for GS is, 2.84

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] KwesiJnr:
I have had my A2017U since October of 2016. The vibration was okay until B19 came out, then I started to notice this rattling noise accompanying every phone vibration. My phone has never fallen heavily or anything. Initially, I thought it was the build. From my observation, the vibration on B29 (the first Marshmallow build) is a lot softer than the Nougat and onwards builds, which is why I didn't notice it back then. So I'm guessing the motor might be a bit loose and the stronger vibration on the subsequent ROMS are triggering this loud noise?

If anyone has experienced this or knows how to fix it, please let me know, as it is quite annoying and I plan to trade it in and get another device next year. This problem could be a deal breaker and it renders the vibration almost unusable in quiet places; draws unnecessary attention.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Choose an username...:
That's normal, it happens once you crank the vibration force up. Shouldn't happen on stock ROMs but it does. I have that on Oreo even though i never had that problem on other builds. I suspect it's the bonding between the vibrator and the daughter board that's bad for some reason, though maybe it's just the vibrator itself
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] KwesiJnr:
Yeah, that's the weird part; I never bothered with cranking it up in any way and I'm currently running V2.10B12. If anything, I recently downloaded the Vibration Tuner Xposed module to try to tone it down. The results are a bit so-so, and the rattling sneaks in every now and then. On Oreo, it doesn't even work. I'm guessing it has to do with the rw issue we're currently experiencing.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Choose an username...:
No connection whatsoever, rw is because it's a closed beta.

You'll have to find a custom kernel thay works with your ROM and tune it down from kernel adiutor
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] KwesiJnr:
Thanks for the info. Do you know of any custom kernels for stock? I am yet to see one that works on stock ROMs. CAD, Llama, HellsGate all seem to work only on custom ROMs
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Choose an username...:
BeastMode worked with U stock but it's not updated anymore. Worth a try anyways.

Otherwise just go custom or install one of the Oreo betas (i recommend B01 w/ hdr+ patch), because someone is gonna publish a kernel for it sometime soon
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] KwesiJnr:
Yeah, the only thing keeping me away from custom Oreo is the dual-SIM bug, but a comment I just found on AEX suggests that it works on the latest build. I'm going to give it a whirl when I get home on Tuesday. ;)
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Choose an username...:
I meant Oreo betas as in B01, non custom, but yeah, AEX has dual sim since long ago anyways
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] TruePlaya:
I´ve got the same issue here with my A2017G running Nougat B12. It suddenly appeared. Phone has never been dropped or handled roughly. As far as I understand its an issue with a badly constructed or weak holder of the vibration motor. It rattled itself loose. On the upside it seems to disappear by itself as I am not encountering that issue any more.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] KwesiJnr:
Good for you, mine has been bugging me for months. I'm dreading having to open the phone to fix it; I might do that when I'm ready to sell.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] ZukZ1IsCool:

Just sold my s620.

Am deciding between s630, asus m530w and hp 914

what do you guys think of the s630 ?
[HTC Cavalier] greddy:
Hello,

i have the S620, think to buy an S630 ... (UMTS) .. but i want Windows Mobile 6.1 and i have no found this os for the s630

The asus are nice, but the same as the s620/s630: no gps

The ipaq 914 are my very big favorit, but i think it takes 6-8 month .. hp has problems and i don't think the ipaq 914 comes in 2 month (HP wrotes that to me)

cheers
[HTC Cavalier] colonel:
I was interested in the HP 614, but put off by the depth and the serious bug it has with 3G.

The HP 914 looks nice but very over priced. Maybe I will wait. I don't really need to have GPS, but in some ways would prefer it over 3G which seems to just be a battery drain.

Eten make some lovely devices with GPS, e.g. the x600. unfortunately none have a non-sliding/folding keyboard which I don't like.
[HTC Cavalier] lhickin:
I have 'upgraded' from S620 to the S630 and my advice is............don't do it. The only advantage with the S630 is 3G connectivity.....but other than that I have found it to be extremely unstable (reboot once a day), not as well designed as the S620 and currently very poorly supported (not even shown on the HTC website).
[HTC Cavalier] colonel:
thx

I might wait for a few firmware versions

what do you think about the weight and size compared to the s620 ?
[HTC Cavalier] colonel:
actually, after thinking about it, I have decided to buy a new s620 :)
[HTC Cavalier] lhickin:
Good choice on the S620 :)

HTC seem to have all but abandoned the S630 - there are no updates for it and its not even listed on their website anymore....

Dopod have a couple of newer ROM's for the C730 (same as S630) but until I can find a way to unlock and SuperCID my S630 - I'm stuck on the crappy HTC ROM.
[HTC Cavalier] murrayalex:
I'm very pleased with the s630, it has been rock solid with not one crash in my first week. I have moved from a treo 750 and prefer the non-touchscreen win mob variant. I've not had any memory issues either, often running 8/9 apps with no apparant slow down. Wifi connects easily, the device is well made and solid feeling. I've turned off 3g and run it on GSM only which helps battery life considerably, I rarely need 3g when out and about, preferring instead to do data downloading via wifi where available. I think it is a great device.

Under the great efforts of developers like B-S-G, Arnova8G2, cstark27, xtrme and so on, our device xiaomi mi8 is able to acquire excellent pictures as what pixel 3 & 3XL can do. Let me make some conclusions on this thread.

The most flawless versions are from B-S-G, which are named like "MGC_6.1.021_MI8_V2b.apk", many developers use B-S-G versions as a base and add more features or compabilities. B-S-G versions can accessed in a telegram channel.

Here you can find port GCam specially for Xiaomi Mi 8.
