[Samsung Galaxy A8 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Michiel0912:
Closed per OP request

Download Odin v3.13.1

Extract the firmware file you just downloaded. You should get 5 files:

AP (System & Recovery)

BL (Bootloader)

CP (Modem / Radio)

CSC_OXM (OXM CSC file, will wipe your phone)

Add each file to it's respective field in Odin v3.13.1.

Once in download mode, connect your phone to the PC, preferably using the original USB cable you got with your phone. Odin should detect your device and a blue box will show up with the COM port number.

Do NOT tick any extra boxes. The only options to be ticked are F.Reset Time and Auto-Reboot.

Click the start button, wait for Odin to say 'PASS'. Once the flash is complete, your phone will reboot.

Checking under backup I see most of my apps have their app data backed up

At some point I want to factory reset my phone and start clean so I want to understand exactly what is being backed up here so I understand what I will lose if anything.

For example I see the game Alto's Adventure listed under backup. Does that mean my saved game is backed up or will I lose it if I wipe?
[Razer Phone Questions & Answers] StupidNoob#317:
I have the Razer phone now, but I can't get video out to the HP lapdock. The keyboard and sound work, but no video. I am using the same thunderbolt 3 cable that I used with the Galaxy S9 to connect it to the lapdock. I have read of other users that we're able to get video out to the HP lapdock from the Razer phone so I know it is possible.

Any suggestions?? I love this phone and I really wanna get this lapdock to work with it!!

[Razer Phone Questions & Answers] ZiCott:
The HP LapDock only supports Miracast, and hate to break it to you, the Razer/Oreo doesnt support it.
[Razer Phone Questions & Answers] DarkestSpawn:
It's entirely possible. You can enable Miracast from build prop. I've done it but can't get a successful hand shake between the devices. I believe lib files are missing from /system to support it, no idea what files/code or how to build/compile what's needed.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime Questions & Answers] thezanix:
Hello Everyone. What I'm about to write might be a bit tricky and complex, so thank you if you'll follow along.

Unfortunately, I dropped the phone into water couple of weeks ago (I know, how dumb...). I let it dry 3 days in rice and Silica gel. After that, I tried to boot it up and it worked, but after couple of hours the touch screen was not responding anymore. I rebooted it and worked again, but lately failed another time.

I tried to let the phone standing up for 3 days, and it worked again perfectly. But as soon as it lies flat horizontally, the touch screen stops working.

After several attempts, I figured out that there might still be water in it, which reaches the motherboard/top of the phone when it is horizontal and messes up with the screen.

However, just out of curiosity, I tried to change ROM and noticed the following:

1.MIUI Global Official: Phone works perfectly, even after lying horizontally. However, everytime something full screen is running, touch screen stops working.

2.DotOS/Lineage/AICP(unterwelt) (All based on Nougat): Phone works, but touchscreen fails after it lies flat.

3.Factory Kernel/ Voodoo: no differences.

So, do you think the problem is in the Hardware, or Software?

Do you accidentally know any good seller of LCD/Touch-screen replacements?

I'm looking forward to buy a Redmi note 4 (if I find any, since there are very few on the market and there are no redmi 4 prime anymore), so I thought this topic might be an take-off for some interesting discussions/opinions.

If you arrived here, thank you very much for your time and hope you can help me one way or another.

Best,

G.

PS: I tried all possible paths while changing ROM/Kernel (Clean and dirty flash, no/formatting data, reinstall TWRP)

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] jxb25:
Hey guess quick question I previously have the S8+ and I was wondering if I should get the S9 or wait for the note 9 or the s10
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] jxb25:
Any suggestions
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] PiArc:
Unless you don't mind upgrading at least once next year (and footing second hefty bill) you should wait. The S9 and S9+ have been widely received as purely iterative phones.

The Note 9 rumors up to this point in time have basically confirmed that it will be a similarly uninteresting device. It seems as though the most remarkable features will be yet another camera sensor and an S Pen with Bluetooth. Whether those inclusions are enough to sway you into shell out a few hundred dollars is your own choice.

That being said, all appearances suggest that the S10 will have a number of groundbreaking new selling points. Listening to the rumor mill isn't necessarily the wisest thing to do, but Samsung has to find something to keep people buying their devices. Most manufacturers cannot get away with putting out the same phone over the course of a few years. With luck they'll find a way to continue contending with the big players in the field. The S10 is their soonest opportunity to demonstrate that they can still innovate.

Instead I found posts of users flashing the SM-G930V (Verizon ) and some even stated SM-G930U ( Unlocked ) .

Should I use Verizon's or the " Unlocked " SM-G930U files ?

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] TommyMagic:
I'm sorry, sure you get threads like this a lot from newbies like me, but I am getting a bit confused and there is such a wealth of information that it's all going over my head.

I have some questions that I am sure plenty of you could answer.

I have recently purchased a T-Mobile HTC Touch Plus, I unlocked it using Oli's unlocker.

I have since tried to install the 3 UK .cab file because that is the SIM I have and I want to use the internet/send MMS etc - I use an installer I found through searching this forum and it said that it installed, I have turned the phone on and off and still the MMS wont send - it says it can't connect - have I done something wrong, not done something? How can I sort this out?

Further to this - how do I debrand the phone so the T-Mobile buttons/options are gone? Oli told me it was something to do with ROMs but I don't really understand - what are ROMs? What do they do? How do I install them? And finally, why are there so many, are they different and in what way?

Last thing, is there anything else I should do? Any recommendations?

Thanks so very much, I know there is a lot to answer but I do appreciate it!

thought someone would have responded by now - have a butchers here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Niki - this will answer most of your questions - in regards to debranding not much to debrand really apart fromt the today screen this can be done by tapping start/ (personal tab) today/ (items tab) and deselecting the t- mobile box, in my case it was orange, and select htc home, hope this helps

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alanPr:
I have to access the Internet through my phone data connection, from both Windows 10 laptop and Android 6.0.1 tablet. Both devices can connect fine to the wifi hotspot and they can use the Internet. However, if I connect the VPN client (Private Internet Access), neither the Windows 10 laptop, nor the Android tablet can connect anymore. If they were already connected before activating VPN, Internet access stops on both devices. The OnePlus One phone is rooted.

I googled for a solution and I found something with using iptables. The following commands should be pasted in a terminal window under root:

iptables -t filter -F FORWARD

iptables -t nat -F POSTROUTING

iptables -t filter -I FORWARD -j ACCEPT

iptables -t nat -I POSTROUTING -j MASQUERADE

ip rule add from 192.168.43.0/24 lookup 61

ip route add default dev tun0 scope link table 61

ip route add 192.168.43.0/24 dev wlan0 scope link table 61

ip route add broadcast 255.255.255.255 dev wlan0 scope link table 61

After these commands, the Windows 10 laptop can access the Internet, even if the VPN connection is active. However, the traffic from the laptop doesn't go through the VPN connection on the phone. If I check the IP address at whatismyip.com from the laptop, I get the T-Mobile ip address. If I do the same thing from the phone, I get the PIA server ip address.

Unfortunately, this solution does not work for the Android tablet. If already connected to the wifi hotspot, before activating VPN on the phone, Internet access stops. If I try to connect the tablet after activating VPN, it gets stuck in "obtaining IP address".

It seems that somehow, the Windows DHCP client knows how to access the DHCP server running on the phone (at 192.168.143.1). However, the request from the Android tablet is probably sent to the Internet, and does not reach the DHCP server (or the DNS server.) I suspect the local network (192.168.143.0/24) should be somehow excluded in iptables, but I don't know how to do that. Also, I'm not sure if I exclude it, the connection from Windows laptop will be affected.

So my main question is:

Is there a solution to access the wifi hotspot on the phone while VPN is active, from BOTH Windows and Android devices?

My second question is:

Is there a solution to direct the network traffic coming from the devices connected to the wifi hotspot, THROUGH the VPN connection running on the phone?

[Wing, P4350 General] Toxis:
I have a Wing and about two weeks ago, I put my first calendar event in it and since, it has been acting up. I deleted the calendar event and it worked ok. So last week I put another event in there I needed and now it runs a LOT slower and locks up when I try to text message. Once I slide it to use the keyboard, sometimes I can put in who I'm sending it to but once I get to the message, locks up. I can't close the program or continue typing. I close the slider and it stays in landscape mode. Every other program on here works well but sometimes slow. After lurking on here, i thought it was a memory issue, program or storage. I've done a couple things to move stuff to the memory card so it shouldn't be memory. I have plenty of space on there and nothing helps. I have an overclock program on here and run it at 228 instead of 186 but nothing changes. I also downloaded MemMaid and have played around with it trying to help but no. Anyone have an idea what could be wrong? Is there a way to reload just the text program to work right again? I don't want to do a hard reset because I have almost 200 contact #'s and I really don't want to lose all those or have to write them down and retype them all in. Thoughts? I know I'm not the only one and after searching/lurking on here for a few days, i'm not finding the help needed. Thanks!!!
[Wing, P4350 General] Toxis:
forgot to state the facts.

Storage memory 27.56mb free, program memory 16.51mb free. I did delete the MyFavs program which helped dramatically.
[Wing, P4350 General] neiltoe:
Are you using the stock Rom? If so have you tried changing your pagepool? My experience with using the stock rom was disappointment and eventually changed to a custom rom. But I do agree with you it does sound like a memory issue.

Also I would consider finding a Contacts backup program so when it all goes to crap you are safe. There are many options for backing up so I would recommend just using your favorite search engine. But sooner or later your wing will get so unresponsive you will want to reinstall and a backup is a nice option with that many contacts.
[Wing, P4350 General] Toxis:
I am going to do a backup tomorrow for sure but I don't think it's a memory issue. If it was, how do people have wings working perfectly with 4-8mb and I'm consistantly 13-16? It has to be a software issue which means it can be fixed. Anyone else have this problem? I saw a few people on Yahoo Answers but no one stated a fix to the issue. Beuller?
[Wing, P4350 General] Toxis:
Also forgot which it just did again is once in a blue moon when I go to do a screen lock, it gives me an all white screen then won't let me unlock it. I have to do a soft reset. Another piece to the puzzle that no one is figuring out. lol
[Wing, P4350 General] Toxis:
Lately it's starting to do it when I even try to type using IE, say to log into a gmail account or to put in a URL. Somehow the keyboard is locking up the phone all together. If I get a call during a time when it's locked up, it ends up ringing but won't let me click answer or ignore. It seems like it's memory but at all times I have between 14-16 megs of program available with over 26 megs of storage. SOMEONE here has to have an idea, right?
[Wing, P4350 General] Toxis:
Apparently I've stumped the developers here... time to find someone who can help me.
[Wing, P4350 General] duprade:
The stock T-mobile Wing rom sucks... it has memory leaks and it doesn't work very well. Very often, you try to open a program like the camera, and it will say "not enough memory to run" ... or texting will freeze up ..etc...

Best thing to do is install a 3rd party rom...

go here to find one

http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=349

I personally reccommend ITJE or ASERG roms... I've used both of their roms extensively and have found them to be the most professional, fast and stable.
[Wing, P4350 General] Toxis:
Awesome man! I will look into them when I get home and will try them out on my Wing. I'll look into the rom you're running because I'm sure it's stable enough. My question is, do any of these roms or are there any plug ins that can let me use multiple schedules on the calendar? If I could have up to 4 or 5, that would be ideal! I use 4 different schedules for work and would like to have a personal one as well. You're my hero.
[Wing, P4350 General] Toxis:
anyone think this is a stock Rom issue? It's now starting to lock up anytime I try to use the keyboard. No matter the program. Thoughts?
