[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] liceto:
Hi everyone, i updated my device to oreo via OTA and everything was fine. Today i did factory reset because of battery issues and after that fingerprint stopped working. When i try to add fingerprint it keeps saying "Make sure the home key is clean and dry then try again". I did everything even rooting and installing custom ROM but with no result. Do you have any idea how to fix it ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] destz0r:
thats weird, maybe try another factory reset?

if that doesnt help: do you still have warranty on your phone? maybe u can bring ur phone to samsung shop because something might be wrong with the sensor itself (just a thought)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] liceto:
It is a software issue, changed a lot of custom roms (oreo 8.0) but with not succeed.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] Brerlapn:
I just upgraded from a V20 to a G7 ThinQ. I would like to transfer the *extensive* list of numbers I have blocked in the LG Call settings to my new phone. LG support did not have any way to do this, but I was hoping someone here might have some kung fu that I could try.

I tried using the LG Mobile Switch app, but it won't transfer "Settings" to a phone with a different version of Android, and Settings>Calls transfer that is grayed out is where any call information would be. Any suggestions?

hi to all!

im using NoThrills WM 6.1 GER on my tytn II

i looking for a solution zo disable the "clock" in htc home plugin?

i like the homeplugin but the clock is too big for me! is there a way to disable the clock complete??

thx for helping
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] tkalli:
Not as far as I know.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] shanetheclassic:
removing the clock will not help you, the section and space the clock is in is the same section other parts of htc home use (contact, programs, music etc.)

if it was possible to remove the area, then there would be no point in having it at all....unless you just like how the buttons look lol
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] the_passenger:
goto HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCHome\

then edit the value of Tabsetting by remove number 1 and you wont see the clock.

unload and load the HTCHome plugin afterward.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] r_benamin:
@ shanetheclassic + the_passenger

is it possible to menage it in this way:

to have a "hidden slide bar"; this means: if i tab programs --> it opens the space and i can see the pragrams; by tabbing on programs the bar shoul hide again.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] samklee:
I was poking around various notification settings and noticed that I lost my Bluetooth icon in the "second screen" or maybe it wasn't there to begin with? It's showing fine in the status bar after I pull down.

Maybe that's intentional to create space near the notch?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] samklee:
Actually, I should first confirm - are you guys seeing a bluetooth icon in the notch area to begin with?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] 20degrees:
Nope. They show it briefly and it goes away. It will show if you do the drop down. Much better imo.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] AarSyl:
There are certain notifications that don't stay in the top (Bluetooth and location are two that could mean to mind). You have to pay attention to the right side of the second screen...the icons fade to the right corner after they appear.

I'm probably posting this in the wrong forum, please feel free to move this where it belongs. I'm in a TWRP bootloop. I followed these directions: https://twrp.me/google/googlepixel.html and now when rebooting, I'm constantly back in TWRP, it never boots into the system.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] stevew84:
Which version of twrp and what were you trying to do?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] arsal_93:
My assumption is you didn't follow the steps carefully and now the boot is corrupt. You need to flash the boot img, just download the factory image from Google.

Bummer man! ??
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] gettinwicked:
That's a really deep notch... They can do better than that! Also, they REALLY need to ditch the plastic on the back of the phone. Seriously, it's beyond time. Still excited about it though lol.

If you have a black notification bar how would you know if you have a "notch"?

Who cares. Bring back the headphone jack and I might be interested. Still no technical reason to remove it.

I mean I'm not against the notch myself if well implemented, but this is a pretty silly question.

No source, no data. Nothing.

Get to your work. There is nothing to see.

There's no plastic on the Pixel 1 or 2... XL or otherwise so I don't know what you're even talking about. I'd actually prefer plastic so we can get wireless charging back.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] guitar1238751:
Interesting, whether this is really the final design or not I'll still be buying the 3XL loll. Love my og Pixel XL but it's definitely time to upgrade.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] TonikJDK:
Or you can have faith in Google to give you a choice. The notch is hidable.

Link fixed.

And a correction, that option is already in P.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] galaxys:
Well at least there's a choice now: Big a## notch or a Big a## bezel. :eek: Most of us prefer none of the above!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] gettinwicked:
My bad, glass.. And hell no on the plastic! It really makes a phone feel cheap. I love the metal the most, but, I would like wireless charging too, soooo, I could possibly live with a glass back. I guess ceramic might work too? Either way, it needs to feel premium. I'm not paying $800-900 to have a phone that feels cheap.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] beepea206:
Surely after over a decade of Android phones, Google doesn't think we're a bunch of iPhone fanboys who will buy a newer model 'because it's the new one'.

This 'prototype' doesn't appear to be that compelling of a reason to change devices.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] tarroyo:
A little disappointing, I expected a completely different look from the Pixel 2 lineup. It looks a lot like the current design

There's no way we can be certain but this could very well be an actual Google prototype. Check out this article, the logo visible in this 3xl picture is very similar to the logo on the back of last year's 2xl prototype:

[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] meraz9000:
Things could and most likely will change. The device is supposed to launch in October so there's still time. The back cover is like some type of glass.. It's definitely NOT METAL OR plastic.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] imucarmen:
Hmmmm, what to do. If this is real then my gut tells me to skip it because I really hate the design but then my next thought is what would I get instead? I've been getting a new flagship phone every year since 2011 and the thought of keeping a device for more than a year seems weird to me. I really really love getting updates every month and enjoy stock android much more than the third party stuff that gets added on top. But, if this notch is a real thing I might consider the Note or V40 even though losing monthly updates and stock android would be a huge deal to me. I just hate that notch so much I'm not sure I want to live with it. I really hope they don't do the notch because otherwise I'm 100% getting a Pixel 3 XL (have bought the Pixel XL, and currently own the Pixel 2 XL) but the notch will make me seriously consider another option.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Trixter313:
Is the glass wrapping around the edges of the device? It looks reflective and like it merges with the top glass :confused:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] tarroyo:
Going based off the recent pictures that were posted on the xda homepage, Google is bringing back at least one of the speaker grills from the Nexus 6P.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] EnIXmA:
So they just add a notch to pixel 2 xl.. same 4 GB ran, same single sensor camera. Fu*k this if these leaks are true, not worth the upgrade.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] samlazaz:
No! Plastic is the best material on a phone! This is why we can't have nice things! Plastic can be easily replaced/removed, is RF transparent, and is compatible with wireless charging. It also absorbs more energy from an impact than glass or metal.

For all that, it's cheaper too.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Nightf0x_007:
Should i wait for it or get pixel 2 xl now?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] IRIE4IPIER:
It's dum dums like you that make Google think they can do no wrong, and so they think it's okay to pump out trash like this. It doesn't surprise me either, being that with the Pixel line, they have copied Apple's design language.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Bobzee:
Screw the notch trend, screw apple for implementing such idiotic trends and screw the android manufacturers that follow these trends. I truly hope Samsung never follow this crap and give us the next best smartphone - S10, with a headphone jack and symmetrical top and bottom design.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] gettinwicked:
Nooooo! Take it back! Lol. Agree to disagree I suppose. You are right about plastic being cheaper. It costs them less, which *should* cost us less, which it won't, and it feels much cheaper. If ceramic would work with wireless charging, I'd say that is what needs to happen. Glass backs start feeling gross after touching them for a while. I had to keep a case on my S7 edge always because of this. I'd love a premium feel with wireless charging.

Latest rumors here
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] daniel4653:
If you get a cheap 2xl right now Google may have a trade in program like they did with the launch of the pixel 2 where they gave you a minimum trade in credit of $400 for the base model OG Pixel XL (2016) if it met their requirements. So it might be a good investment. I scored a [emoji209] on eBay for $420 with the 20% off coupon from two days ago.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] SOCOM-HERO:
Headphone jack?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] DonDizzurp:
Android P will come with built-in notch support.

The notch will be an always-on notification area with white text on a black background using AMOLED.... somewhat how the old school Palm Pre using WebOS was supposed to be.

Well, that's just my assumption. That's the only way I'd accept a notched phone.. especially this one since the notch is very big.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] :
dear google

1- remove the silly notch

2- add another camera on the back

3- use a plastic back cover (we all have case anyway) and catch up with the wireless charging

3- make the cover removable , same for the battery (yes it can still be ip67)

4- bring back the head phones jack

5- add an sd card slot

= Winning !

Ill even preoder that perfect phone if you build it*.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mixedguy:
It's hard for me to decide if I'll purchase the Pixel 3 XL with just pictures of the outer design. I'll have to wait until it's officially revealed to see if there's any surprises that don't pertain to what we can make out in these leaked pictures. I would hope they have at least one surprise related to the Pixel brand or another piece of hardware for their upcoming 10 year anniversary of Android hardware (G1 smartphone).
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] v2.2v:
1- they will not

2- they don't need to, they have the best camera with a single lens

3- you will never see a google flagship with plastic again so I would accept that pretty quick lol

4- same concept as 3

5- if you're not posting on XDA then you probably don't care about SD cards. 64 or 128GBs is enough internal
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] daniel4653:
Jesus you're demanding alot. The only thing they might do is being bakc the headphones jack. And that alone is asking for alot
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] NOSTALGIA:
looks legit. no longer saying anything.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jasonstackhouse:
So this is interesting. I the Pixel XL 3 is indeed the phone displayed in the leaked images, you should all prepare your self for a downgraded device at a higher price point.

[IMG="notch size"]https://dl.xda-developers.com/4/5/2/4/2/4/0/Pixel-3-XL-notch---chin.jpg?key=YtsQrvCfHHl8_z3n36rNIA&ts=1528749635[/IMG]​

If the phone screen is actually 6.2 inches than that would equate to a screen size of 157.48 mm from corner to corner. For anyone in the camp of (anti notch) you will be able to black the notch area out, creating a bezel which from the measurements provided in the photo attached would be 8.1 mm in height. this would bring the full screen size of the device down to 149.38 mm or 5.88 inches. For example, on the current Pixel 2 XL, you can watch a video full screen with the whole 6 inches, if you do that on the new Pixel XL you will have a screen intrusion (the notch) so the largest actual 16.9 file you view on the Pixel 3 XL will be 5.88 inches.

What I have read thus far, the 3 XL will have:

•	Same LG display

•	Same max storage of 128 gigs internal

•	Same 4 gigs of Ram

•	Upgrade from Snapdragon 835 to 845

•	Glass back (possible wireless charging)

•	Dual front facing selfi cameras

•	Significantly smaller front firing speaker (built into the notch)

I definitely will not be dropping over a thousand bucks for these minute changes, most of which i see as downgrades in the aesthetics and appearance of the device for day to day use.

The most frustrating thing, in everday use of my phone, is just how much picture quality you lose when zooming in.

According to DxOMark, the current top of lines phones all include an Optical Zoom:

(Huawei P20, HTC U12+, S9 Plus, iPhone X)

Can Google choose to ignore this ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] EeZeEpEe:
But coming in with optical zoom is still better than digital zoom. Personally, I prefer wide angle lens over telephoto and have added that with a Sirui lens.

Edit:

Oh, you were saying digital zoom on the Pixel 2 XL is bad. Didn't read it that way at first. [emoji4]
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Electroluxray:
The notch is going to suck, for sure, but what is even worse is that LG is supplying the OLED screens for both the 3 and 3XL. The single most detracting issue with the Pixel XL 2 was blue shift, and now we're getting it with both phone variations? Are you kidding me? There's not going to be an option for a Samsung screen this time around (Pixel 2). So in my humble opinion, that's the worst news here. I hope you like BLUE with black crush!! Aww crap...
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] @home:

I dont give a flying f*ck about the notch

I will order the 3 XL day one.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] richii0207:
A neat design would be to keep the 3XL design but make a notch out of the bottom speaker too and use the sides of the notch for thr back and recent navigation button with swiping up in the middle to go to the home screen like what they use in Android O. That way, top and bottom are symmetrical and functional with screen real estate and front facing speakers.

If someone doesn't like the notches, can always have the hide notch option and make it looks like a 2XL
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] GokuSSJgod:

[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Electroluxray:

[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] EeZeEpEe:
Dead cause 2 phones come out with mechanized cameras? [emoji53]
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] EnIXmA:
Yes! It started with one small company, followed by Apple copying it and the rest followed. Now this mechanized camera would be copied by Samsung or Apple and rest would follow.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] EeZeEpEe:
That's a lot of assumption right there.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] EnIXmA:
No man, that's how the industry works these days. First company to shrink the bezels was sharp, then Samsung copied them and the rest followed. Notch was ugly and I am glad it's dead, Google as usual late to the party. Camera mechanism is a thing for 2018 and Google would implement it in 2025 after the industry has moved forward. Hehe
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] EeZeEpEe:
The industry trends are on the slow side. Sharp shunk the bezels back in 2014 and it took a couple years for everyone to start doing the same. Essential did the notch May 2017 and Apple in November and they were the only two.

We're only halfway through 2018 and you're already saying it's the year for camera mechanisms because 2 phones have it? LOL. It's the year of the notch especially with Android P having compatibility built-in. Just accept it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] EnIXmA:
No man, I can't accept notch. It is doomed and I am so happy.s10 and note 9 leaks show no bezels and no notch, so Samsung is staying away from this notch nonsense. It's very short lived and Google copied Apple prematurely. They copied them with head phone jack too. At least Samsung doesn't copy Apple and I respect them for that.
