[Huawei P20 Questions & Answers] pLx_:
Hello,

I've recently discovered that if you try and place a finger on the fingerprint sensor while the phone is in your pocket, the screen will successfully unlock, which I believe it's not normal behaviour. Every time I pull it out of my pocket the screen turns on and the phone unlocks, leaving it prone to accidental taps and inevitably open random apps every time.

Does anybody else have this issue?
[Huawei P20 Questions & Answers] Godzi:
I just tested it. Same here.

If I cover the sensors while the phone is just sitting there and then place my finger on the fingerprint reader - it registers it and unlocks the phone.

If the phone is unlocked and I cover the sensors - I get a message that the touch protection is active and it doesn't allow me to click on the screen.

Great "touch protection", Huawei. Good job on this one.
[Huawei P20 Questions & Answers] pLx_:
Yeah, it basically works only once the phone has already been unlocked, lol.

Nice addition to the stupid lock-screen notification issue we are having in the other thread. How awful.

At least I'm glad I'm not the only one, I'll try and open a chat when I have some spare time to waste...

Pls how can change my samsungS9+ booting system.. And can recover the original one not copy
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] kakagi:
I am facing data switching issue from my 1st sim(Jio) to 2nd sim (airtel) on any custom rom. previously i was in MIUI 8.7.26 and then after wiping system data and dalvik i flashed RR and AoSp. But in both the rom I'm facing this issue. Data on jio working fine but when switching it remains on jio. If I toggle airplane mode then for a second LTE data sign comes into the airtel then vanishes. No data on jio or airtel. Again if change data to jio data works and on changing to airtel it remains on jio.

Apn settings are ok for both the Sims. Data roaming and enhances 4g on for both the Sims.

I know it is not at all rom related issue. But I'm puzzled why this is happening? Can any one guide me?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] nishant30:
exactly this. finally, someone having a similar problem. i was going bonkers thinking it was only me. i even made a video of it - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sgyNm1Czrks.

i am still looking into this. it happened on RR and LOS. I'll let you know if i find something.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] kakagi:
Do try other custom roms also. Like aex and pixel experience also. I telegram somes are saying AEX and moner don't have this problem.

I saw your video. After toggling airplane mode your 2nd sim data (jio) works. But for me 2nd sim Airtel data comes for a second and vanishes.

There is a problem in the source of the LOS and AOSP may be.

I'm going to try one by one and let you know. You also try other Roms and let us know.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] nishant30:
SURE. i am not so sure about this problem being in LOS itself. I say this because i was using non-official LOS since april and data switching was seamless. idk but this started only after i flashed official build. i'll try other roms, but as of now, this happens on RR & LOS. my data comes for a second and vanishes as well; i have to put it on airplane mode multiple times for it to work.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] jonny-lee:
Hi ,i am on AeX to Switch ist no Problem ,but if i Take a call on Sim 1 - Sim 2 stops working Mobile Data until i end the call in Sim 1
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] kakagi:
I think it's same in miui too. If data is connected in sim 2 and you received or do call from sim 1 sim 2 data is disable for that moment. That's not a problem. It's like that.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] jonny-lee:
Thank You , i dont know, miui runs short time by my Side .

I thougt it runs ?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] promiscuss:
I was having a similar issue on RR and AEX. On AEX I turned off Enhanced 4G LTE mode and then selected correct APN. The internet works on the second sim now. Hope this helps you.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] nishant30:
Hey! I solved this issue. I Changed the apn name (jio internet to JioNet) and turned off enhanced lte. Data is switching seamlessly now.

Let me know of it works for you. Find the correct apn settings for your ISP.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] nishant30:
well, looks like i jumped the gun here. disabling enhanced volte makes data switching instant, but i cant make/answer calls now. OP, if you find something, you let me know.

How to turn on 2nd sim data on Custom rom in RN5/Pro

Simple turn on 2nd sim data and turn off VoLTE in setting and see the magic your data it's working ;)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] kakagi:
How to turn off volte

It has only option to disable enhance LTE. Currently I'm outside. Will try new Rom this weekend.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] bhimrdx:
Yes turn on your 2nd sim data after turn off enhance 4G LTE Mode because custom rom support Dual 4G VoLTE on same time, Not supported 1st 4G VoLTE and 2nd 4G Only try it
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] nishant30:
None of this happened in nonofficial Los that i had. Clearly, this is a bug in stable version.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] bhimrdx:
I know this is a bug but this bug present in all custom roms
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] kakagi:
My Airtel and Jio both are volte enabled sim. In miui both works fine with dual volte.

Custom ROM has bug in it. My previous phone was le max2. I faced the more or like same issue in custom ROM of it also too. If u switch data from 2nd sim to 1st sim data would not turn on. To get it working either you have to disable completely volte. Or u need to restart your phone. Tooling airplane mode will not do the work.

But for note 5 pro this trick is also not working for me. I feel that the source of most custom ROMs of note 5 pro has this type of bug that's why it's present in most or every ROM out there.

Untill and unless they correct it from source it's difficult to get the desire result.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] Jevinruv:
I had a similar problem, I had 2 Sims(for calls and data) the data sim only activates once, I had to switch to airplane mode and then turn it back on. The issue existed when it was the only sim on the phone too. I tried the sim on a different phone, and it worked perfectly.

So the fix was in the APN, the APN protocol should be 'IPv4' as the default was IPv4/IPv6 (same goes to APN roaming protocol), once I adjusted them, data works fine now.

Using MIUI 9.5.19
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] kakagi:
Strange I never faced anynissue regarding data switch in miui ROM. Even the data switch in dual volte works fine for me.

Anyways thanks for the suggestion in the changes in APN protocol.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] nishant30:
Tried this. Didn't work.:(

MI Service Centre in Mumbai

I had faced a similar problem and didn’t know how to resolve it. Finally, I had to visit a nearby Mi Mobile Service Centre to seek proper assistance. The technical people in service centres are efficient and I would suggest you to seek their assistance rather than try things yourself. Read more - vcareservice.in/MI-Mumbai
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] nishant30:
This bug is exclusive to custom ROMs. I hardly think service centres would be of any assistance.

Op, i received a notification on jira, where I was tracking this issue, that this issue has been resolved in the latest Rr rom based on Lineage. Could you please confirm that?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] kakagi:
Could u point out to the ROM thread?

I tested android pie aosip and PE extended both having similar issue.

OK only lineage pie by shaan is working.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] kakagi:
I confirm that lineage os pie does not have this problem. All the other roms I tried I'm facing the issue.

May be xenon hd based on lineage work too I will try that later.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Dheeraj Menon:
A lot phones are getting unofficial Android P Beta 4 ports

So I was expecting any Dev to work on that and also project Treble support
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] TNSMANI:
Why the hurry? If you wait, you will get P stable on 3/t.

Treble may be a no-go.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Dheeraj Menon:
It's not that I am hurrying or something

It's just that some devices that are getting project Treble support and unofficial ports of Android P are just budget devices and kinda feels weird when a flagship like the OnePlus 3/T is not one of those devices to test the new version of Android
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Explorer23:
Unofficial Treble support is kinda pointless, dev community will make it work anyways, just like all the years before. That's mainly beneficial for manufacturers as they have limited resources (focusing on newer devices). Treble is there to make upgrading to newer versions easier, so it never made sense for OP3 as it's EOL, only getting security updates from now on.

Wait a few more months and we'll have custom P ROMs all over the place, no need to hurry with half-baked betas.

[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Sreekantt:
There is but not worth the risk. If something goes wrong you have to factory reset the device as proper TWRP isn't available for Honor 6X yet. It isn't worth the hassle as there's no difference in quality(infact slightly degraded in P20 camera)
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Harsu04:
It means there is no quality change between honor 6x oreo version and p20 camera
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Sreekantt:
Nope.. I was using P20 camera on Elite rom 7.7 and didn't notice any significant difference from the stock.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Twotems:
After several years of trying different free and paid vpn's that won't drain my battery excessively I think I may have found the solution.

I have lifetime subscriptions for VPN Unlimited and Windscribe with Proton and Tunnelbear as my free ones. All drain the battery quite heavily. For the past 72 hours I've been using the Strongswan Ikev2 client to run Windscribe and it's been excellent. Zero abnormal battery drain. It's the first time I'm using Ikev2 and it's much more efficient than OpnVpn in terms of speed, battery and auto-reconnecting. The downside is that it only uses one port and can therefore be blocked by the isp or government, so if you live in a restrictive country then you're out of luck.

The screenshot below are my actual battery stats since I took the phone off the charger. This is despite Strongswan shown to be using about 35% of the battery.

I presume any Ikev2 enabled vpn will work just as well so you don't need to use Windscribe and I'm not endorsing them over any other vpn. Anyway give it a try and let us know how it works for you.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Twotems:
Update: Almost a week now and battery life is still normal. Looks like this really does work.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JedixJarf:
Yep, ikev2 is going to have much better speed and lower CPU usage on every platform (that's why it's used for Enterprise network vpns between firewalls). Also give wireguard a shot, extremely low CPU usage and battery as well :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Twotems:
Thanks for the tip. I'll check it out.

I'm not sure many people know about this because all the searches I've done show complaints but no effective solution to the battery drain. Ikev2 and the right vpn client should be top of everyone's list when considering a mobile vpn.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JedixJarf:
Agreed. One of the other reasons though that people prefer openvpn is that you can run it over tcp 443 so it's not likely to get blocked on draconian guest networks like ikev2 might.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Twotems:
Understood. Under those circumstances your original app will still give you the OpenVpn option. But for an always on vpn for mobile the combination of ikev2 and Strongswan is excellent. It's permanently connected on both my phones now.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Contentum:
Yeah, IKEv2 is the way to go, better security and less drain on the CPU/Battery. I set up NordVPN on the Strongswan too and experienced slightly better results than with the NordVPN app. Though the app itself isn't bad at all.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wallzii:
I'd also like to say that using IKEv2 protocol through strongSwan has fixed my Android VPN battery drain issues as well. I have traditionally been using the NordVPN client on my Android device and it definitely introduces a significant drain on the battery, which is now gone.

Hopefully anyone else with similar issues will find this topic with a quick search and can apply the same solution to their problem as well.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vm81:
So I am new to setting up vpn manually. I have been using nordvpn app for a while but battery drain has kept me from keeping it on constantly or using androids kill switch.

I just installed openvpn connect amd strongswan and using nordvpn server through them for oenvpn and ikev2 protocols. Is that the right way to go about it? How do you select which server to use as there are 1000s of servers. Should I be importing all of them into these apps. How do I decide which one to use at any time.

I ideally want to be at a point where I can just leave it on all the time without worrying it will drop connection.

Thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Twotems:
It's either OpenVpn or Strongswan. You can't use both as they use different protocols and OpenVpn will continue to drain your battery. Therefore it's Strongswan you need using the Ikev2 of Nordvpn.

Just import the servers you want to use, set and forget. Windscribe has a specific set of instructions on this but I don't know how Nordvpn does theirs. It should look something like "us.central.nordvpn.com" with a password and instructions on which boxes to check and uncheck. Once you're set up you use the Strongswan client exclusively and select any server you've imported from there. No need to even have the Nordvpn app installed any longer.

Hope that helps.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vm81:
Thanks for your response. I was planning to use only one at a time ikev2 or openvpn. I juat installed both to see how they compare.

Anyways, one of my questions is that how do i select which server to use. If i use nord vpn app (which i dont want to) it shows me all the servers and load on them so I can decide which one to use.

With strong swan, I loaded one server on...but whats the best way to figure if aerver i am using is optimal.

Also battery drain is better than using nordvpn app, but it seems to get stuck every few hours and I have to dusconnect and reconnect. Also if I turn alway on vpn on in android setting, it drains battery lot more.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Twotems:
You've already answered your own question. Put as many servers as you want on Strongswan and use the Nordvpn app to decide which one to use. :rolleyes:

I don't know what phone or android version you're using but both my phones are on Oreo and they don't have the always on option any longer. I just whitelist and enable autostart for Strongswan. It may get stuck but that generally depends on your vpn, mobile and wifi networks not Strongswan.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnjay06:
After my phone has been asleep for a while, when I wake it, the data doesn't work. Anyone else have this problem with strongswan? I've tried it using both windscribe and nord, same issue with both

[P3600 Software Upgrading] Mudface:
Ok, I'm a new HTC Trinity owner (its the Orange SPV M700 variant to be exact), i've had an SPV M500 for many years now and decided it was time for an upgrade.

I would love to get WM6 on there and there is an enormous amount of support all over the place for just that purpose but i've run into a problem at the first hurdle.

I found the WM6 Upgrade guide on trinityguides.info and as the first thing on the list was Hard-SPL, and that Hard-SPL would stop me from bricking my nice shiney new trinity i thought that was a pretty good thing to try out.

I plug the USB in, active sync sees it, i run the 'ROMUpdateUtility.exe' file and check the boxes, get to the screen where it connects with the phone, click next, the phone pops up 'EnterBootLoader is trying to run, allow?' i hit yes and it goes to the bootloader..

Trouble is, when it goes out of WM5 and into the bootloader it disconnects from activesync and so the ROM update utility just fails, says its lost connection with the device..

Am i missing something here?
[P3600 Software Upgrading] Mudface:
Turns out i fixed it, aren't i just the little genious..

Hey XDA folks, today I've flashed oreo in l09c10b521 using TWRP and HuRupdater. In this process I've flashed HuRupdate.zip then all three files got flashed, unfortunately I formated data partition and rebooted. After reboot, phone didn't booted until I perform factory reset in stock recovery. Finally phone booted up but no Setup Wizard, no Gapps, only filemanger and some emui apps.

In Dev options OEM unlock option is faded/greyed out. Unable to flash anything in ADB

>> Is there any way so that I can go back to Nougat and use Gapps <<

If its not possible then how can I install Gapps?:rolleyes:
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Mumtaz77:
Similar here with some differences. FRP-Locked, Phone unlocked, TWRP previously installed. I Can't install stock recovery because FRP locked. No Gapps, no keyboard, just some Huawei apps. OEM Unlock is grey, but bootloader unlocked.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] MartyWeber28:
The same happened to me, this: https://xdaforums.com/honor-8/development/firmware-huawei-honor-8-frd-l09-stock-t3696921 helped to rollback and everything works fine :).

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Mumtaz77:

First you have to dload the main firmware file, then the renamed vendor.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Mumtaz77:
When you try this method, the bootloader and phone (FRP) in locked state? Or Bootloader unlocked?

My phone is just booting just to Stock recovery, eRecovery or fastboot, but the "OS" won't boot. If I restart, or power on my phone just boot to eRecevery. Now in the fastboot mode the bootloader and FRP in locked state.

All software install failed. :(

No luck over 5-6 hours. All firmwares I want to flash ended "Software installation failed". In FF I find a B407 rollback package from Oreo, but its still not approved yet

same here, does anyone know how to fix it?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Mumtaz77:
Same? Won't booting and just recovery, erecovery or fastboot come up, frp and bootloader locked? Oh, and no luck for flashing any firmware?

I'm affraid, just the B407 rollback package bring back to life, but still not approved yet. :(
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] immichao:
actually it boots, but i have an emui without google apps, and a greyed oem unlocking option, so i can't unlock
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Markxdx:
i ve same issue, frp and bootloader locked. all firmware stop at 5% no gapps and greyed oem setting (c10b521)

I do not know how to find the "magic" firmware that does not fail...

should you understand based on which criterion is installed the firmware, recovery version? version of the system? I have no idea
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] MysTiCy:
For locked FRP, you can relock the bootloader and after that unlock again. It unlocks the FRP again. Just write "relock" instead of "unlock".

And about the "not approved" packages, seems that Hurupdater doesn't care, it just installs.

But for some magic firmware, just download some way older firmware for dload installation. For me that always works on my L09C432, is 360.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Mumtaz77:
Ok. Just one problem occured for Me: I do a bootloader relock, and this ended a not bootable OS, Relocked Bootloader and locked FRP. Just boot to eRecovery.

Just one problem with this: 360 is not a rollback package, so if you want to refresh (back) to this, just show You an "Installation Failed" message, and nothing more. So 360 just works if you want to refresh from a lower Nougat or MarsMallow build, or "rollback" from a higher build Nougat firmware.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Pranav Kumar:
I tried and ended with this error

"FAILED (remote: stat not match)

finished. total time: -0.000s"
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] MysTiCy:
You relocked, then unlocked, and it didn't unlock? Strange. I know atleast that the same unlock/relock commands work with nougat and oreo. I've done it a few times.

360 is a full package(FULLOTA-MF-PV) for my model. Other models have different package numbers.

You need to have a full package. Make a folder "dload" on root of an SD-card, with "update.app"-file in it. I have also the "meta-inf" and "full_mainpkg.tag" there, but i don't know if they are really needed. Then just boot the phone with power+volup+voldown and it should install.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Mumtaz77:
No. I relocked the bootloader, but after that and the "automatic" factory reset the phone not boot to the os, just to the erecovery. So i can not change the "OEM unlock" option to unlock again the bootloader.

The install. I'l know the install method, but not work. Any package what 8 want to install ended (after 5%) a "software install failed". Ok. The 360 PV package is a good one, but this package not work, if you want to roll back from a higher master version, like oreo. This package just work if you in nougat, or MM.
