Great, thank you for the data point. Do you happen to know the CSC and stock firmware version you had installed when the OEM unlock appeared? If I don't see the option after another 7 days I intend to ODIN over a known good CSC / firmware version.

Mine is a S9+ dual sim and has OEM unlock
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] this.guy.lol:
do i need to have an active sim card in my phone to oem unlock? feeling like i wasted the last 3 days by not having one inserted. thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] force70:
Lol, why wouldnt you have one inserted?

sent from my Exynos S9 plus, Pixel 2 XL or Note FE
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] this.guy.lol:
because i have a oneplus 6 i am using. and because i require root. i dont use devices that are not rooted.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] whitepines:
Did finally get it working. My device originally came with RMM prenormal, FRP lock off, OEM lock on. Setting up the phone normally and inserting a SIM, then waiting 7 days, did NOT work. I suspect the phone was in an abnormal state due to a partial setup by the prior owner / reseller.

What did the trick for me was to force reset the phone (lose all data) via the settings menu, have a SIM inserted, go through the full setup process (Google and Samsung accounts), then leave the phone on for 7 days. The reset caused RMM prenormal, FRP lock on, OEM lock on. After 168 hours the OEM unlock option appeared in the developer settings menu.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] stewa2jm:
A little guidance here. I've only dealt with Google Nexus devices and the OnePlus One, which were ridiculously easy to unlock and put on a custom ROM. I'm currently running (yes, still) a Nexus 6P because there hasn't been a phone that really interests me. I do like the S9+, and can get a good price on a BNIB SM-G965F/DS. I just want to run AOSP on it, no frills, no thrills, just vanilla. That's how I roll. So, I'll need to unlock the bootloader, install TWRP, and load up a new ROM.

With that said, all that I've read, I'm a little confused. I use t-mobile, so will I need to put in the t-mobile sim for 7 days to get OEM unlock, or will I need this done in an EU country (it is an EU version) due to the region locking Samsung has been doing since 2013? There just seems to be a lot of competing and incomplete information all over the damned place.

And don't tell me to search, please. I've been around on this forum long enough to know how to search, and long enough to know that search doesn't always yield the results you're looking for. So, if you have a link to a more descriptive explanation of what to do/expect, I'd be grateful.

Thanks.

EDIT: Found this: https://www.xda-developers.com/fix-...y-s9-samsung-galaxy-s8-samsung-galaxy-note-8/

Maybe that would work... but still don't understand if I need it activated on an EU SIM first.. Now I remember why I've avoided Samsung devices...

Been a month and no oem unlock for me... Tried all the time trick settings and factory reset plus more time changing... I am not using a sin on this phone because I have a work phone... Why so much bs just for oem unlock?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] DLD23:
Oem unlock isnt gonna do anything for the device. Its kind of pointless to do for now.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] stewa2jm:
HELP! OEM Unlock came up after 7 days. I turned it on, and it said that doing so will erase data... yadda yadda, and then it restarted, wiped, and then rebooted. ... No OEM Unlock in the menu anymore and back to RMM STATE: Prenormal.

WTF??
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] jujubeans:
Multiple guides to either TWRP/root or ROM s9+ involve manually restarting the phone BEFORE samsung auto restarts your phone.

In other words, don't let the force restart from samsung go through, and manually restart it the moment you press OK to factory wipe and restart

EDIT: also make sure you have signed out of google before going into DL mode to TWRP phone, as this does the "FRP lock" from what I personally understand and Odin won't let you TWRP with FRP lock on. This was my 2nd mistake (and second 7-day lockout). First mistake was what you did, by letting samsung beat you at restarting phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] stewa2jm:
Thanks. I got through it all a while back now. You have to be lightning quick. So dumb. This will most likely be my last Samsung device. There are other options that are much less hassle to do this work on.

I am looking for a stable and debloated ROM for the 2016 A5 (A510F). It doesn't need to be the latest 8.1 version. I just want it to be stable, debloated and optimized.

[Magisk] dadnammit:
I'm running Magisk Manager 5.8.3 on Orea 8.0.1 on a Xiaomi Mi A1.

I tried to install the July OTA update today, and the process did not work as expected.

There was no "install to second slot" option during the step:

"Once the installation has passed step 1 and is starting step 2, go to Magisk Manager → Install → Install to Second Slot. This will install Magisk into the second boot image slot, which is the updated slot."

During my last OTA update, this worked fine. And I've seen a reference online that this is a bug in the "new" version of Magisk Manager.

Has it been reported, or any confirmation or news about the bug?
[Magisk] DanGLES3:
Its not a bug it was temporarely disabled because for some it wasn't working right according to the dev
[Magisk] dadnammit:
Thanks. Can you link me to that statement from the dev? I'm trying to understand the roadmap or else what the official guidance is on how to update. Given, that the official docs still reference this step in the process, I do not know how best to proceed.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] new_ppc_user:
Hello all,

While doing some 'research' on other similar Windows Mobile phone i discovered that the O2 Stealth has a built in Answering Service.

That is, you can set it up to take your calls without the caller going through to your voicemail. Quite a good feature if you want to save money.

So, i was wondering if i can have something similar on my Softbank X01HT device. Or if it was possible to extract the CAB and install it on my unit.

Any ideas anyone?

My list of apps that I don't let the store update?

ES File Explorer and Graph 89 (TI calculator emulator). I've made modifications to both apps and re-signed them so they don't update.
[X Style (Pure) General] Hitti2:
How do you modify them so they don't update or ask to be updated?
[X Style (Pure) General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
As I said, I re-signed the apps. Because the signature has been changed the apps can't update even if they show as needing an update. Re-signing an app is relatively easy and can even be done on device with ZipSigner.

The big difference between my re-signing apps and tutorials on the topic is that I use my own key rather than debug keys.

Modifying apps is often more involved, requiring a means of decompiling the app, making edits, then both recompiling the app and signing it. Sometimes, if it's just a graphic like for Graph89, WinRAR or 7-Zip followed by re-signing the app is enough.

[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] DavidR19:
What are the best settings in Pro mode to photograph stars. I'm working on an iso of 3200 and a shutter speed all the way up to 30. What other settings are suggested. I'm not sure what the eV and af are...
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] apotsi:
Any answers here ?
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Specsranger:
You'd want a tripod for your P20 Pro, set your iso anywhere above 3200, your shutter to 10+ seconds, leave your EV (exposure value) to 0 and AF (autofocus) to MF (manual focus) and focus to infinity so it doesn't shift focus way from your subject (in this case the sky). Ensure you're photographing a clear and dark sky as well. You can find more at davemorrowphotography, which has a tutorial on this.

Hope that helps!
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] CaseyS:
Think along the same lines as using a DSLR. Have the shutter open no longer than 30 seconds. Stay under 3200 and make sure you're set to infinity. With a phone you'll really need dark sky's. Don't expect the photo to be of sharp quality because keep in mind the size of the sensor that's in the phone compared to that of a DSLR ✌️

This is my first time posting in XDA.. thanks for this platform anyway

I have face one of my biggest failure in my life that's to brick a phone=.=

NOVA 2i Build Model RNE-L22, running emui 8.0 android 8.0 and rooted.

I was able to unbrick this phone twice and succesfully to boot into the system, I was so happy... but then it come out as a nightmare when i try to reboot after moving an SB game hacker to system app / update the magisk... it went to brick then...

I have my bootloader unlocked

Enable USB Debugging

OEM Unlock enabled...

when I reboot the system, it come out with error mode with:

Error Mode

Func No 10 boot image

Error 12 load failed

Then I try to flash TWRP.... which I used to flash TWRP with the command fastboot flash recovery ramdisk... it success all the time... but when i reboot to recovery mode

it comes out with the same error mode with Func No 11 flash image...

Now it seems like i am unable to flash any recovery image....

and factory reset is not working as well... it went to boot as I try to wipe data/ factory reset in eRecovery... factory reset is not working as well...

then i tried to erase system, cache, userdata, etc.. only system and userdata im able to erase... other command is not allowed for me

can someone plssss give solution to this problem:crying::crying:
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Rich_Palermo:
I am trying to replicate the functionality of a Galaxy Note II notification LED on an LG V20 for Sprint. AFAIK, there is no such LED on the V20 although there are some differing opinions on whether the camera flash can be used of this.

The standard email notification icon available when the main screen is off is tiny and for some reason, it disappears or gets pushed aside by other notifications. e.g.

1) I send myself email and I can see the icon within a couple of minutes

but

2) Email comes in overnight but when I check the phone in the morning, the email icon is not there although some other icons for updates and whatnot are.

I have the stock email app on the Second Screen and when mail comes in, it puts an indicator on the icon. But, this only works when the main screen is on. With the main screen off, the best I can get are the Quick Tools, none of which are relevant to me.

Is there any way to get the app icons to appear on the Second Screen while the main screen is off? Or, are there any third party apps which can show clear new email status with the main screen off?
[Samsung Gear S3] truckerdewd:
Every few weeks when I go to pay with my watch I hold the back button entered my pin, and then am greeted with the wonderful message that all of my card info has been deleted. I never had this problem when I had a Note 8 or an LG V30 or an S9 but with my LG G7, I do have this problem. I notice that in the Samsung Gear app, I don't have Samsung Pay in the list but when my card is deleted on my watch and I have to set it up again and it tells me to check my phone, it launches it just fine to add my card but just doesn't show it in the Gear list. I have seen that others have had issues with their cards being randomly deleted and having to be set back up again. It is a good thing I know my bank card number by memory and doesn't take long to set back up but it is a bit annoying. I'm worried US Bank may start to think someone is messing with my card.

Anyone else had any issues with Samsung Pay deleting their cards? This was one of the biggest reasons I got this watch.
[Samsung Gear S3] klau1:
Happening every few weeks. I read that hard resetting the watch helps. We should contact Samsung about this, they don't read this forum.
[Samsung Gear S3] truckerdewd:
Been there, done that. No luck. I think part of the issue has to do with Samsung Pay not showing in my Gear app like it did with my previous phones. I did download the most recent apk and keep it on my SD card in case I need it, but when my card gets deleted from my watch and it makes me set up Samsung Pay again, it opens fine on my phone just don't know why it doesn't show up in the list.

Another possible reason could be when people do clean up of memory for the watch from the Gear app it could be deleting the cards since Samsung Pay isn't listed in the Gear app. Maybe not but it could be possible.
[Samsung Gear S3] ankushgautam:
Its a known bug which samsung knows as well but they hardly do anything to fix it...its more frequent on non samsung phones...only hope is near gear watch launching with a better samsung pay app and we, the gear s3 owners also getting the update...
[Samsung Gear S3] truckerdewd:
My Gear app updated today and now Samsung Pay is showing in the list on the Gear app now so maybe that will help. It was showing before on my current phone which is an LG G7 ThinQ but when I had the LG V30, it did show in the list on the Gear app. Perhaps Samsung updated compatibility with more phones even if they already worked with it despite the previously mentioned issue.
[Samsung Gear S3] conanbarb:
My credit cards have been deleted twice since I updated to the latest Gear App a couple days ago so that didn't fix the problem for me at least. I already called their support and they said it is a known issue with non-Samsung phones although I've read on multiple posts that Samsung phones have the same issue. They had me delete the cache on the Gear app, but that didn't help.

Gear S3 Frontier and Pixel 2 XL
[Samsung Gear S3] klau1:
Strange its happening now after over a year of perfection just a few weeks before Gear 4 releases
[Samsung Gear S3] conanbarb:
The CRG3 update seems to have fixed the problem at least for the past couple weeks, although my cards got deleted after I upgraded to Android Pie.
[Samsung Gear S3] conanbarb:
I spoke too soon. I received the CRH1 update a few days ago and all my credit cards were deleted once again today. I contacted Samsung Pay support and they acknowledged there is a known issue with Pixel 2 phones, but also blamed it in the Android Pie update. I had to remind him that this issue has been going on months before Pie was released and it's not exclusive to non-Samsung phones. My friend has a Samsung Note 8 and has the same recurring problem. He just asked me to be patient while they work on a fix. At least he didn't try to waste my time re-installing software or doing a factory reset
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JakeTMS:
Is there a tool / app that effectively stops the internal clock (date and time)?

Either:

1) Stops the clock as a system service so nothing is reported

2) continuously (or frequently) resets the date and time to a specified date and time.

My sample device is a Samsung S5, factory new with updates to Android 6.0.1.

[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] kewlest22:
Requirements:

1) OnePlus 6 with DP3 installed

2) A PC with adb setup

Steps:

1) Make sure you have adb debugging on under developer options in your phone

2) browse to the folder where adb is setup and open terminal by pressing shift key and right click on the mouse

3) connect your phone and check whether it's properly connected by using command adb devices

4) then enter the following command and you'll have the pixel gestures unlocked

adb shell settings put secure swipe_up_to_switch_apps_enabled 1

Disclaimer:

1) will work only if you use oneplus launcher

2) with other launchers you'll get oneplus launcher force close dialogue box when you try to access recents

3)this hack replaces traditional navigation bar with pixel gestures, you still have oneplus gestures available to use

4) to revert back to traditional navigation bar do step 1 to 4 with the following changed code instead

adb shell settings put secure swipe_up_to_switch_apps_enabled 0
