[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] ScoutFromEarth:
I personally think the sensor does support the fingerprint gestures. Why do I think this? It's quite an advances, precise and quick fingerprint sensor. That's why!

If we sent a load of complaints to Oneplus, maybe they will add the gestures later. For now you can use some third party apps from the Google play store.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] mitas35:
Thanks man, i tried it tonight on my sun's dance 1080 60fps and it was out of focus all the time, anybody know when they will fix that?
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] ScoutFromEarth:
Im not aware of that issue, but other people are. Oneplus will patch that issue soon they said in a statement

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] vercetti:
which apps let you use gestures with a fingerprint scanner?

coming from a Huawei phone with fingerprint scanner gestures I would love to keep these features when I switch to another phone (perhaps the OP6).

so what can these apps you're thinking of do?!

and my second question:

running 2 apps in split screen. are all apps capable of this? can I run any 2 apps in split screen or only certain apps?

my 2 year old Huawei phone is pretty much useless in this regard as I can only use a handful of Huawei apps in split screen.

thx for answering!

edit: can the OP6 run this app?

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.superthomaslab.fingerprintgestures

it's a fingerprint gesture app. could you please check if it works with the OP6? It doesn't work on my Huawei phone, my fingerprint scanner is not supported.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] ScoutFromEarth:
Pro mode with manual focus
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] ScoutFromEarth:
Q: Which apps let you use gestures with a fingerprint scanner?

A: Most apps in the Google play store including the link you also posted down in your comment!

Q: So what can these apps you're thinking of do?!

A: (I'm guessing your still talking about the fingerprint gestures.) The apps I'm talking about can sort of replace the fingerprint gestures which are not available at this point of time on the Oneplus 6. For example: press the fingerprint sensor to pull down the notification shade of press the fingerprint sensor to turn screen off.

(Currently I use dubble tap home button to pull down notification slide)

Q: Can I run any 2 apps in split screen or only certain apps?

A: Only certain apps.. Splitscreen with YouTube doesn't work, but with the XDA app it does. So I think it's 50/50 if your app works in Splitscreen or not. If you found two apps that do support Splitscreen, the experience is amazing!

Just to be clear, I can download the app for the fingerprint gestures that you sent! :D

Best regards and greetings from the Netherlands

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] vercetti:
thx for answering!

2 questions:

1.) could you install and run the app I posted? does it work?

2.) is there an xda mod or something like it that enables split screen with any apps?

edit: split screen: found this on the OnePlus forums:

"Settings > Developer option scroll down to bottom > Force resize activity and you can now split any apps even Instagram...it will say the app may not work with split screen but it will work without any problem"

restart the phone, then it should work just like the person wrote.

could you please try this out?! thanks!
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] ccic2491:
I've got a dumb question. With the dual partitions on the 1+6, could we install 2 separate ROMS on the partitions and choose which one to boot to (like MultiROM)? Or am I way off base? Pardon my stupidity, I've never owned a phone with 2 partitions.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Kiinasu:
Does it support NFC-SWP?
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] gothy.gothy:
It's not for MULTIROM purposes, but for being prepared for Treble Project, the one that will allow a device to receive updates from Google faster. Just search for this project and you'll figure it out.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] PIRATA!:
About the n.2.. Can you post a picture about how it looks this ambient display?

Ps: if I'd like to put the AOD back on, will any of the Play Store app do the job?

Thanks.

And about the led functioning for notifications.... Is it like on Samsung phones where it starts flashing every time a notification arrives, showing a selected color regarding the app involved???

Thanks!
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] the.bsr:
Hi I have some questions.

1. I have a P20 Pro , but I dont like the EMUI so i want to buy a 1+6. Is that worth to change?

(I use a lot my phone, my mobile data and bluetooth always on, I play some games daily on that, I also like the dual speakers and the camera on the P20 pro.)

2. 1+6 has got dual speakers or Can I make it with magisk or something?

3. I know the camera is not the best on 1+6, but I can use a ported GCam so thats good, but how is the stock camera app?

4. I can enable to show the battery percentage or I can I make it with magisk?

At the P20 Pro I can see the battery percentage and I like it, but on the 1+6 I think I can't see that without open the quick settings.

Thank you for your answers.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] PIRATA!:
I have some questions about the OP6 as I'm thinking to get it coming from a Samsung S8, but I need to know if all these things are available:

- always on display or something similar (or actionable without hosting root so maybe using some xda app or Play Store app)

- led functioning for notification with different colors, like different color associated per app, like it works in Samsung

- different led colors while charging, at least one for charging state and one for finished/full state

- percentage of battery next or into battery always visible

- dual sim both active in standby so to be able to receive two calls simultaneously, one on each sim, and have a busy line when calling sim 2 while in a call on sim 1 (so not getting messages of unavailability of phone turned off and so have the possibility to switch to phone call on sim 2 while in call on sim 1)

- data mode to be active in 4G on both sim it at least to have fast switch for changing which sim to use for data plan

- possibility to set separate ringtones and notification tones to each sim so to have different sounds for incoming calls and messages, each sim with its own sounds, not ringtones to contacts..to sim cards!

- power saving profiles to select so to reduce power consumption, something like OFF/MID/MAX, a medium with same phone aspect but with reduced preferences and a maximum one with dark/simple interface for maximum reduction of consumption

- themes or some way to change device icons

- when typing something like in WhatsApp or a browser, in the navigation bar at the bottom will it appear on the right a 4th button dedicated in changing between keyboards so to be able to change it quickly? I use more then one keyboard, and I need to be able to change keyboards easily without going all through the settings to just change it, and go there back again to change it back.

Hope to not have forgotten nothing.

Thanks.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DARKKi:
I have Galaxy S6 and when i tried to install new ROM via usb-otg stick something strange happened and now my whole phone is unusable.

TWRP just says 0mb for internal storage and i cannot install anything since i cannot mount anything. I have looked pretty much all the "fixes" but nothing has helped so far :\ I have tried to format, wipe, change partition type, install, etc. And nothing has helped me so far. So if there are any ideas left please help :]

I think i still have root and when entering TWRP it does not ask password since i have done dm-verify long time ago.

Here is video showing some of the things: https://youtu.be/wXVVRBmRROU
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HowJesNo:
go to download mode and flash stock firmware with ODIN. than flash twrp, enter recovery (twrp) before system. and boot to stock.

than try again.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DARKKi:
Hi!

I got stock firmware from Updato and then began to flash with Odin and it seemed that it would work since it was actually doing something at first (while trying to flash ROM's Odin crashes) but then it gave an error and stopped :\ Here is an picture of Odin's log.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peterdu88:
I guess you had better restore factory image, make sure the system comes back. then flash updated version OS.

You can trying to use ODIN to do that. or using fastboot flash .....

Hope to it is helpful.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DARKKi:
Okay, i have new problem. After i tried to flash with odin now i got only one place i can boot into and it looks like this:

I downloaded Smart Switch and entered emergency recovery but i was met with this screen and i have no idea from where to get the code.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HowJesNo:
in smart switch emergency upgrade and initialization, if will ask model and S/N.

model is SM-G920F and S/N in on the back of the phone. all caps.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DARKKi:
Smart Switch did not even have that option but i tried it with Kies and got this :(
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HowJesNo:
smart switch should have same option. I found googling that in never versions that option was not functional due to Samsung not wanting people to debrand their phone. so older version is needed.

just got mine in a similar bootloop.

can u get into download mode?

If phone can't turn off do this:

- hold volume down + power, (that is reboot)

- as the screen goes black move finger to volume up + home key.

that should get you to download mode. now use odin to flash stock firmware.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DARKKi:
I tried that before and i tried it now again and same result:
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HowJesNo:
is that firmware higher version than one previously installed?? i had that issue once!

G920FXXE5EQJ1........ try with any other with higher number. UK (BTU) is G920FXXU6ERC9

Hi! I got the Model name but for some reason i cannot find S/N in the box or anywhere else

Thanks a lot for this! I was able to install stock rom.

But then trouble started again. Boot screen came up and then text and mount problems like "failed to mount efs (no such file or directory)" :crying:

Here is the video about it, anything i could do now? I installed TWRP and it still says internal storage 0mb and formatting has no effect.

Video - https://youtu.be/OBfhTRWUZeU
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DARKKi:
I got little progress. I found the S/N from back of the phone with torch which i could not see without (Thanks for Augustin @ XDA Discord for this!) and then i tried to use Smart Switch but it does not recognize the phone and only option is "Emergency Firmware Recovery" and it needs some recovery code.

Then i tried Kies and it does not detect the device either and i tried the option "Firmware Upgrade and Initialization" and typed out model and S/N and after that it said "SM-G920F" does not support initializing"

So anyone knows what i could do now? Seems like i am running out of options here :(

Augustin also said that i should try pit but i have never used that feature in Odin so help with that would be awesome if it can remedy this situation somehow :)
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] allensd.cordero:
You need the .pit file according to your csc. Found it here: https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s6/general/g920f-pit-file-banded-firmwares-t3118459

Thanks a lot! Finally using pit got the partitions right and phone is working like a charm now! :]
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] catst22:
This might be a bit late but I am also currently in the same situation with my S6. Somewhere in the thread it said something about pit files but I don't really understand what to do. For reference, my issue is the exact same as OP's with the unmountable partitions and unbootable system. Would someone be kind enough to help out? My device is a SM-G920F from Vodafone (UK)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kurious:
I am pulling my hair out in frustration at this point...

I bought the Tilt about a month ago. Been coming here to learn about stuff (only registered today), and I do want to thank everyone as it has been a wonderful experience.

Anyway, one of the first apps I DLed was Gmail Mobile, which worked fine. Then I upgraded to the 1.62 ROM yesterday night. Since then, Gmail Mobile refuses to work, claiming upon login "Network unavailable" and that it "needs a data connection". Of course, I have an unlimited data connection which is working flawlessly for everything else (including Google Maps Mobile).

I've found a number of threads here and elsewhere indicating that this problem is not unique to me, and I've tried every suggested approach plus some I thought of myself. Still no luck.

Has anyone been able to figure out what's causing the issue?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] scotchua:
go to settings--connections--connections--advanced--and make sure that media net net is selected for both and make sure that you uncheck the proxie settings. that should clear it up.

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] silent08:
Hey guys,

Just curious as this is the first time I've been around for a new device release and I'm used to getting a device long after developers have had them for quite a while.

Not that I'm complaining - but is this the usual rate of development for a new device?

Really appreciate all the great work you guys do! If I can help with anything let me know :)
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] rav101:
Was just mentioning this is Telegram. I am aware of 4 kernels and 1 ROM being developed (not all yet available). I think with A/B partitions it's taking a little longer for development to start as we don't have an official TWRP yet (and I mean this in comparison to OP5) but if you're looking for a device with good developers support, you won't go wrong with the OP6.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] masri1987:
it's barely been a full week since the first orders were delivered so come back in a month.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] TheNetwork:
I would report your thread and have it locked before the lazy keyboard warrior nerds come around to argue with you. I tried to ask what stage of development we're in and of course it was immediately interpreted as demanding an exact timeline of when we'll have ROMs and crap. Had to report-to-lock my own thread because people were acting unbelievably childish. The funny thing is even the mod who responded to the report seemed to be sick of the users' crap on here.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] iElvis:
I would say this isn't anything unusual given the challenges of developing for this specific device. Many phones go weeks or months before even getting root. OP is dev-friendly, of course, but the A/B partition issues and other things are slowing roll-out a bit.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] silent08:
Thanks being understanding :)

I'm definitely not demanding nor expecting - but am willing to help where I can.

Your post answers exactly all I wanted to know - just wanted the opinion of someone who has been around a few new device forums to see what is and isn't normal.

It looks to me (from your post) like development is moving along pretty nicely then considering how new the device is/new challenges involved.

Again really appreciate the non confrontational reply.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] silent08:
I missed your reply initially! Really informative as well thank you :)

What 4 kernels are those? I know of Chewie/CleanSlate and Franken kernel?

Also if you don't mind me asking what ROM do you know of?
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] silent08:
Interesting! I hope people can quite clearly see I'm not expecting nor am I entitled to anything.

Just trying to gauge something I have no experience of from other people who have more experience.

Last phone I had was a OnePlus One... I got it many months after release due to the whole invite only thing and development was already pretty insane by the time I got one in my hands :)
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] iElvis:
People can be testy about these kinds of questions because they are sometimes asked in a much more disrespectful/entitled tone.

To be honest, I think development is moving along pretty well, and certainly faster than what I'm used to from HTC phones (which are a different dev situation).
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] rav101:

[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] TheJesus:
There have been a few reports on Reddit of backlight bleed in demo units. Personally, one of my Raspberry Rose units has the backlight bleed (between the home and app switcher buttons, aka circle and square) and the other does not. I created a form to get an idea if this issue is widespread (like the G2x) or if maybe it's just an early batch problem or it's really not a problem and just a few flawed units. Please contribute to the form either way, the more data the better.

For reference, this is a bad case of the backlight bleed:

I have a slight bleed at bottom that I would never noticed without you pointing it out.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] Sinister04wrx:
I have it as well right in between the circle and the square button...not cool for a brand new phone to have this problem right from the start...time to have Verizon send me a new one
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] TheJesus:
Sorry! It's not noticeable on certain screens, seems like solid white/light gray is most prone to showing it. My G2x didn't have much bleed, but that had a whole class action lawsuit against it.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] techrider6262:
Light bleed is a complaint on a lot of devices even tv's.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] AwesomeFabe:
I as well have the light bleed in that same exact spot. Yours looks a lot worse than mine though. To be honest, I think it's mainly an LG thing to have something slightly wrong with their displays. I've had their v10 and every flagship after that besides the v30 and they always had that slight light bleed issue
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] TheJesus:
Yeah, but at least the V10/20 had a secondary backlight with a weird screen design to blame it on. I'd actually understand it more if the bleed on this one was around the notch, the bottom doesn't make much sense.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] techrider6262:
I think it does since the bottom is where all the ports are.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] ardax:
There's a tiny amount of backlight bleed on mine. Right at the bottom of the screen, just like in your picture. Just not nearly as bad. In fact, I didn't notice it until I went looking for it. Picked up a gray one from T-Mobile yesterday.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] imstill@g:
Just exchanged mine at TMobile. Exact location of bleed
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] 20degrees:
Did it fix it?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] comhack:
I had a small mark at the exact same spot as the OP so I will be exchanging mine at Tmobile when they open in 2 hours.

In my experience, bleeding does spread over time. I am on Jump on Demand and will probably only keep this for less than 6 months but still, now that I have noticed the spot, it will drive me nuts.

Just got mine yesterday from t mobile and i do have light bleed from the bottom near the home and recent button. Although mime is minimal ill take it in to be safe.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] comhack:
So I went to exchange mine today and I was chatting with the Tmobile rep as he has a G7 as well. First, he mentioned that it was a known issue and that he had to exchange his as well. Then he pointed at the display unit and holy crap, the device was like twice as big as the OP's image. It was huge and they were leaving it on the shelf. So they are fully aware of this being an issue.

The one I ended up getting still has a very tiny spot in the same place but since I change out phones every few months (love 'jump on demand'), I am just dealing with it. Now if I actually spent $900 on this device, I would be raising holy hell.
