[LG V30 Questions & Answers] SHosp:
My wife just upgraded from a G6 to the G7 and I have the V30. The size of the G6 and G7 are almost identical but the G7 looks far better with a completely black front instead of the silver bezels of the G6. The screen on the G7 is nice and the notch is interesting (not negative nor positive in my book, just different). The clock on the left will require retraining your eyes.

As for the aspect ratio, it is very noticeable to me in that it's taller and slimmer. I personally don't like that feeling buy my wife loves it. She always though the V30 was too wide to hold comfortably. The glass feeling on the phone is the same as the V30. One nice touch on the G7 is the IMEI is etched under the glass of the phone in a non-obtrusive way (T-Mobile version anyways). The external speaker on the G7 was noticeable louder and produced a warmer sound compared to the V30. As for the fingerprint reader, it is just as fast as the V30 but moving the power button to the side is annoying and a step backwards. We both immediately noticed that to turn the phone/screen off was now harder than before as you had to reach to the side or double tap on the screen instead of pressing the fingerprint reader.

Software wise, the G7 and V30 with the Oreo update are very similar in feel with only some minor variations. The G7 has new options for the native launcher like swiping to Google and more integration with the Assistant while the V30 has better HDR and VR support. Also has V30 has Wallpaper motion to give your home screen a parallax effect but is absent on the G7. If you use a 3rd party launcher, you will not see these features therefore not miss anything.

On the camera front, the wide angle of the camera is narrower for the G7 from the V30 and it's noticeable when putting the two next to each other. I personally don't like giving up the extra FOV. The UI and features are more comprehensive on the G7 with the addition of Portrait mode and the Google Assistant built directly in. The manual mode is similar however the V30 has far more shooting modes that the G7.

I would say for anybody who already has a V30 and likes it, don't bother with the G7. If you have a G6 or older device, I would definitely look and get the feel in your hand to see if it suits you needs. She is very happy with the upgrade and has no regrets.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] josemedina1983:
The G7 just doesn't have enough features to drop the V30. Now if they drop a G7 with stock android and bigger battery now I'm thinking.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Nova launcher has had this parrallax effect for YEARS. It's even reverse parrallax, so the effect is even stronger. ;)

But I didn't know the V30 has it as I use Nova launcher.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] APhoneUser:
Nova launcher = no knock on when on the desk face up.

I'll need to revisit that launcher; I've been on HTC's skin on my old phone up until now.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] SHosp:
I should have explained it differently. The Motion effect uses the gyroscope of the phone to make the icons appear to float above the background image. As you tilt the phone side to side, you get a different view of the background. It's more a 3D effect than parallax.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] bitwiser:
I use Nova launcher on my v30 and always use knock on. You have to give Nova admin & access. security privilege. Works just fine.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Arcide:
With root it works EXACTLY like stock launcher.

[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] Redshock:
Dear all i bricked my Huawei P10. First i unlocked the bootloader this went OK, then i rooted my P10 his went OK. Then i installed TWRP this went OK. Then i used twrp to flash a custom rom from here after this it went in bootloop. Also can't reach TWRP. it just goes te eRecovery :( now i tried to unbrick it trough the huawei multi tool and i have all the image files accept the Ramdisk_recovery image file. Does anyone have this file for the P10 or now where i can get it ?

Kind Regards,

Redshock
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] irromera153:
The issue lies in dm-verity (checks system integrity on boot) and maybe encryption. The problem is the only GSI guide doesnt include a fix for this problem :rolleyes:
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] DallasCZ:
what firmware recovery_ramdisk do you need? what custom rom have you flashed? what twrp have you used? what customization do you have?We need more information.

p.s. you can download any firmware from teamMT web page, then use huawei extract tool to extract the recovery_ramdisk image from it.
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] Redshock:
The Flashing of the custom rom wen't wrong i think. i used twrp 3.2.0 for p10 and now i have no customization only unlocked and rooted bootloader.But now when using the huawei tool form teamMT it asks for 5 files

-System.img

-Ramdisk.img

-Cust.img

-ramdisk_recovery.img

now i can get the top 3 of those from the update.app i got from the huawei firmware finder form teamMT but i can't find the Ramdisk_recovery.img and without the i cant use the unbrick function ?

so do you guys have any clue where i can find this becease i checked the unbrick thread but the recovery file from that thread link is death ?

The thing is it keeps booting. i get the screen where you need to press power 3 sec to boot but it does not boot. i can boot the e-recovery and all but not twrp or anyting else. Also the erecovery does not do anything.

any ideas on how to fix this ?

kind regards,

In case you guys wanted to try it...after liberating your device, you can connect WM & Vista then run MyMobiler on the two sides so you don`t have switch back and forth...yes I know the button is right there... :p . This is a cool and free util I run on my Athena and thought it would be cool on the Shift.

Ill give it a go once I get my shift. :D

Hi,

I'm not sure if it will be usefull. (With the button being just ther..) but it is interesting.

Let us know how it goes. Would it do Real VGA?

[Shift General] koala996:
waw !!! really nice.. just tested on my Touch.. and it works so well :O I'm impressed !

when I was at the Microsoft's conference, I have seen the Windows Mobile stand using an application like that but they refused to give me it... they said "it is just for internal developers".... and I didn't know that there were a public app to do this !

can someone test it with the shift? I'd like to know if it is working and how well does it work... I will have to play for about 4 years on the shift.. so every pratical features like that is important for me :p
[Shift General] sonietje:
I gave it a quick try but I think that the program cannot handle realvga very well. I have problems seeing the full WM screen in 800x480 mode. There seems also to be a problem to maximize the window because it zooms to 200% and I only can see a fraction of the WM screen. I had to cancel it by alt+F4. It seems also very slow so I don't see much use of it on my Shift. But thanks anyway, its always worth trying.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] LormaD:
Picked up a Mi Mix 2S (had a Mi Mix 2 for about a week), and I wanted to unlock the boot loader like the Mi Mix, and Mi Mix 2.

Mi Mix took 3 - 5 days, after having to go on miui forums to beg to get the sms notification to try to unlock it.

Mi Mix 2 took 72 hours... Yeah, I know, whatever. (had it about two weeks ago, and unlocked it)

Mi Mix 2s that I received yesterday, says after 1st attempt... 360 hours! That's 15 F'in days.

What Da F*** is that?!?!?!?

Is there no workaround? Can you PAY to get it unlocked faster?

This is amateur hour.

Cheers,

i also read trying to often maybe blocks the account at all...

i thougt that my dumbass unlock tries blocked me for 360hours... i tried a couple of times unlocking but i didn't read correctly where to bind my account in the phone.. i did this a couple of times.. until i realized that i need to enable the dev mode and there bind the mi account…but looks like this is just a protection at all that resellers don't flash fake or custom roms at all...

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] Presterin:
I think it's better to have time limit on unlocking than have chinese sellers flashing shady stuff on every unit they sell. You can still unlock eventually, which is nice.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] Firipu:
Only for the Redmi Note 5. Doesn't work for other devices afaik.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] LormaD:
I don't agree with this analogy. It makes no sense. If that is the mongering reason behind this, then one day why not have hours replaced by days... 360 days? C'mon! Let's stop repeating the rhetoric.

Had I have known before, I may have NOT have purchased the Mix 2S. But once you open it and use it, you bought it. It tarnishes a great product. It comes across like a fumbling amateur, who will one day face the North American market and have to overcome much greater obstacles and scrutiny that is not biased from the public eye.

Okay, the Mix was 3 - 5 days to unlock as "people" and Xiaomi navigated the waters. I had to escalate it online to get it to unlock.

The Mix 2 was less new to me, the concept, and to an extreme better laid out (the unlocking process). Even though frustrating, having to wait 72 hours, it was what it was, a long weekend and done with.

The Flagship Mix 2S will take me 360 hours. Is that the standard for everybody? Or is it (like me) you request a 2nd unlocking within 360 hour period, automatically go from a 72 hour wait to 360 wait?!?!! Am I some kind of shady dealer LMFAO!

C'mon Xiaomi, your making Bruno Mars say WHAT?!?!?!!?

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] LormaD:
It's the grey area ground rules that bother me, not the waiting.

What is what is not always what but may or may not be what.

:D
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] Martend:
Or you just order a factory sealed one, like I did, simple as that.

Most sellers want to sell phones, can't be bothered by installing "shady stuff".

Often the sellers offer to flash a Global Version rom as a service, for the not so technical buyers.

For the technical buyers & if it says Global version, just drop the seller a message you want it sealed.

Moving units asap is the goal, every extra flashing that needs to be done costs time.

........edit.......... 360 hours also waiting for Mi ehrm.. me.. :( Seems to be general, unlocked lots of Mi before...
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] LormaD:
My unit WAS Sealed... brand, spanking new, global version. I broken open the seals myself. Just like the Mix 2 (which requested 72hours), the Mix 2S was sealed, it even had more packaging, protective plastic piece in place over the front and rear of the phone than the Mix 2.

So I purchased my device on ebay and apparently it is a Chinese device so huawei UK can't get me an unlock code. I've tried using the chinese website, but it will not let me make a Chinese account due to my current region. Any suggestions?
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] James_Watson:
Have you actually tried to register your Huawei ID? I don't think it will deny you due to your current region.

In addition to Huawei official website, you can also register with the stock app on your phone.

After you have a Huawei id, you may get an unlock code from the official website of EMUI.

Does anyone else have issues with mms taking forever to send? Every time I try to send one it takes a long time. Sometimes it'll fail, even on wifi. I tried to send on that was around 700kb it took like 5 minutes, and it failed. When I tried tried again it took a few minutes, and finally sent.
[Sony Xperia X Questions & Answers] RNZL3R:
My Xperia X has the oreo update (latest) and now my notification sounds only work when the phone is plugged in. Among other bull**** I'm sick of with Oreo, and the lack of fingerprint reader, I've decided to go with lineage OS. However, I'm trying to backup my TA partition first, and I can't seem to flash the MM ROM on my phone.

I've downloaded and installed the Fastboot drivers, Flashtool, and Xperifirm. I've downloaded the "Internal - Commercial and Journalist 34.0.A.1.264/R2A" files from xperifirm, opened flash tool and created an FTF bundle from that.

However, when I put the xperia X in flashmode and begin flashing, it won't flash. It ends with the error, "For flashtool, unknown sources and debugging must be checked in phone settings."

And those settings are, indeed, checked. So what am I missing here?

-=-EDIT-=-

I finally got MM downgraded. There's so many conflicting guides and videos out there the misinformation needs to be set straight.

I *HAD* to use the Flashtool that comes with xperifirm. After you open and use the flashtool with xperifim and it downloads the files, there's additional scripts that get run. This does not happen with the 3rd party flashtool.

Now I need some assistance gettin root. I can't seem to find any articles that allow me to root without unlocking my bootloader, which as I understand it will wipe the DRM keys I'm trying to backup.
[Sony Xperia X Questions & Answers] hhjadeja007:
First thing, don't ask this type of doubts in this section. This section is for roms and kernels. We have Q & A section specifically for these kind of queries. Now coming to your point, there's no way you can root your mobile without unlocking the bootloader.

Oh snap, thanks! I apologize. I thought I was in the Q&A section. I had so many tabs open from so many guides I was following.
[Sony Xperia X Questions & Answers] mase76:
I would recommend Omnirom for this device. It is officially supported and you get OTA updates every Sunday. Oshmoun is doing a great job to keep the device up. There are no official Lineage builds for Suzu.

You can also spend 50€ and give SailfishOS a try, which is a great alternative to Android. This is also officially supported, although you will also lose your warranty, because you have to unlock your bootloader.

But I think, all of them are better than that bloated stock firmware.

I use Omnirom with Microg, rooted with Magisk and F-droid as app store. No Google apps. And I am happy with this.

But I am watching the development of SailfishOS and flash it from time to time. There are still some features missing, that are a must for me. But the development is going on.

As seen here: https://support.t-mobile.com/message/550363#550363

The Wi-Fi calling portion of T-Mo was apparently picked up by base android in 2016... if this was in the upstream code is there any easy way to put it into any of the ROMs?

I'm running straight Lineage and I don't see the option even though it's clearly connecting to the Tmo network.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] gmolds:
Ok... I'm now seeing that some phones just don't have the kernel support built in. I still think there's plenty of mileage left in the S5 so I'll keep on doing this dance for now.

Hmm. How do you activate it?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] omgbossis21:
On lineage you turn it on in mobile settings. Net10 carrier requires user to turn the feature on it seems, it asked for my phone # and one other thing (I forgot maybe last 4 of imie) and they ran a check on my sim. Perhaps they just turn something on in their end? I used to use it on stock with T-Mobile before I unlocked it but tmobile sucks in my area.

If you have a Chinese tab you're SOL. Contact Lenovo.

They're in 7z format but any half-decent compression software made in the past decade will open it. WinRAR works, as does 7zip.

Read the page carefully. The files have a password, it is on the respective page. You will need to flash with QFIL, there are tons of guides on XDA telling you how to do this so I won't. Also this is at YOUR OWN RISK! I cannot personally help you further with your tablet because I don't have it.

Good luck!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] Rand0lph:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] PUTALE:
I believe you cannot downgrade the firmware if you already have the latest v4 firmware (N950USQS4CRE1). From what I can gather, if you are are on oreo, you do not need to use the carrier switching method to switch between carrier. If the phone is sim unlocked, you just pop in another carrier's sim and it should work.
