[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] bobsmaster:
Hi,

Im a first time android user and recently bought a Samsung Galaxy S9 (International Version - SM G9600 - DUOS - Snapdragon). I need wifi calling very badly on At&T as my work and home both have bad reception so my purchase has handicapped me from making calls. I see a lot of forums talking about flashing At&T firmware on G960U VERSION. But i havent seen a single one talking about flashing it on g9600. Is it possible? I compared the specs and every hardware looks same except dual sim option. Will I brick my phone if i attempt it? Please suggest im in need to help from the pro community.

Regards.

[Xiaomi Mi Note 2  Questions & Answers] chemha:
Hi, I bought the 64 GB chinese version about a year ago. Today I was using it on the street like I normally do and when I arrived home, I was going to check whatsapp and my phone was just dead. I held the power button for more than 10 seconds and it didn't do anything. I tried to connect it to my PC but it didn't even appear as an USB device. It seems like a hardbrick or a hardware failure. I don't know what to do, I've just let it charging hoping the best.

I was using the last AOSP extended build.

UPDATE:

I don't know what really happened with my phone, I opened it up and tried to extract the battery. It started to bend a bit beacuse the glue was too strong so I connected it again and holded the power button for a last try. It worked, I don't know why but bending the battery fixed the problem.

UPDATE 2:

Ok, it died again I've just ordered a new battery because now it doesn't fix bending it.

I ordered this battery, I googled about the manufacturer and they seem reliable. I bought this one because I don't trust the "original" ones which are sold in aliexpress. I'll tell you how it works when it arrives.

UPDATE 3:

The battery finally arrived so I installed it and the phone wasn't powering up. I think it's not a battery problem because I blended the phone a bit and somehow it worked. I'm backing up all my data before it stops working again.

I shouldn't have threw the original battery to the trash, maybe it was ok.

I've been testing the phone a bit and a blue screen appeared so I had to reboot it. What does that mean?

UPDATE 4:

The phone died again the same day I installed the new battery. I was so done this problem that I bended it too much and the front and back glasses broke.

I ordered a new one which arrived today. It's the 6GB RAM 128GB ROM this time. I hope I won't have to deal with this weird problem again. I think it was a mainboard problem.

Thanks to everyone who tried to help.

[Xiaomi Mi Note 2  Questions & Answers] chemha:
Yeah but, as I said before, it was working perfectly fine until I arrived home.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 2  Questions & Answers] Gerrett:
I had the same issue .. at the beginning the following worked for me : I disconnected the battery and connect the charger . after 2-3 times of connect and disconnecting the charger the LED was back alive (red). Then I connect the battery and the phone startet Up.

But now this doesn't work anymore .. the battery is not the issue, cause if you add the charger without the battery the light should be red.

Now I ordered a new charging port dock connector, but I think that the Mainboard have a defect .. maybe cause of the heating issues or cause of a drop.

On AliExpress you get a "new" Mainboard for ~120€ ..so you can better buy a new phone.

Or maybe someone wants to sell his mind note 2 with a broken screen .. ?! PM me :P

[Xiaomi Mi Note 2  Questions & Answers] chemha:
I neither think it's a charging port problem because, when I connected the charger the mainboard, it had some electric current in it so it might be a mainboard issue. I ordered another Mi Note 2 because I really liked this phone and also bought the battery and front glass replacement so I don't want to throw them to the trash.

Now I'm trying to figure how to recover the data I couldn't back up from the broken phone.

Hi guys, I have encountered a reeeally big problem with my SM-J500FN... any help would be really appreciated.

So, I had installed the Resurrection remix rom 5.8.x and wanted to upgrade to 6.0.

I wanted to check whether everything was ok so I tried reinstalling the stock rom (mind: I've already done this with the same files) via Odin.

Anyway, the process ended with "size is too big 143360<409600" and "Invalid ext4 image".

Now I can only boot into download mode, otherwise a message pops up telling me to try and use Smart Switch's emergency recover (SS doesn't even recognize my device).

What shoud I do? I'm really worried...

Thanks in advance :D

I have been doing some inquiring about using ROMS since I a new to this whole thing. One concern that I have is AT&T's PTT. If I use one of the ROMS it's my understanding that the phone will be completely erased and that I need to back up contacts, etc prior to the upgrade, but if the PTT software came on the phone in the first place how could I get this back after the upgrade.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] NotATreoFan:
In order to maintain PTT functionality, you need to flash ROMs that are based off of an AT&T build. There are more than a handful of these around, check the Kaiser Wiki for more information.

[Amazfit] xplod2841:
Hello,

Maybe it's not the best forum for this kind of question, but it's currently the only forum where I could ask for this watch.

I somehow lost this part from the picture in the attachment. My watch is only a few months old and one day I just noticed that I don't have this part and now I can't charge my watch because it won't stay inside the charger. I have to put something heavy on it to charge it (as it can be seen on the picture).

I tried to google and I checked on eBay, Amazon, Geekbuying etc. but I didn't find not even a trace, because I don't know how this thing is called officially. Where can I buy this little part? Is it even possible to remove it or mine got broken? I think that there's a glue leftover on the watch, where it was. It looks like a cover.
[Amazfit] TumiBC:
I saw people calling it horns. It was available on AliExpress for a short while in "Amazfit Store" and they called it ears and it costed $10 for a pair but it says it's "sold out".

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Amazfit-Stratos-2-watch-ear-spare-elements/32896059684.html

Since there is actually "Official Amazfit Store" on AliExpress I guess "Amazfit Store" perhaps was not authorized since their entire store is empty of any products now, hence "sold out", so I don't expect it will be available again there.

I remember somewhere I saw someone posting they could help you with it if you message them but I can't remember where, maybe on facebook or on some other forum.

I was lucky to have noticed that piece became flimsy and I just gently pulled it off before it fell out on its own so the advice is to get a different type of charger that closes on top of the watch into it's charging cradle and also to check on those ears/horns after charging if they ever start to get flimsy.

Sorry I was not helpful. ;)
[Amazfit] lfom:
The seller should have them for replacement if your watch is still under warranty. If not and you have an international model (A1619) you can try contacting us.amazfit.com.
[Amazfit] marmot:
Exactly the same thing happened to me. I replaced the one I lost with the one from the bottom part of the watch; the absence of one horn at the bottom does not make the watch pop up from the charger.

On a separate note, I spoke to Amazfit support in China, they're saying that they do not sell these things separately, need to send the watch to the factory in Anhui, so out of luck, as I am not on warranty.

Thank you all for your responses, I didn't expect such an activity for this weird question, but seems that I'm not the only one, not even close, who has a problem like this.

I got in touch with Huami and they really have a wonderful and very fast support. Unfortunately, watches bought directly from Geekbuying aren't covered with warranty so they weren't able to help me.

THIS solved my problem! Thank you for your recommendation, Pavel saved me!

I was thinking about doing the same if I don't manage to get a new horn.
[Amazfit] di0nko:
Hi everybody,

I broke one of the "horns" or "ears" from my Stratos and now it's not possible to fix an strap. I attach some pics.

[LG Watch Sport] quicksilvr:
Hi guys,

My Watch Sport seems to have developed some issues in the last two days.

The screen wouldn't come on (I don't have always on turned on). I restarted it, and it was ok for a couple of minutes, then the same.

I turned on "always on" in display settings to trouble shoot, and the same thing happened - only now, the screen was frozen when it stopped working.

The watch itself seems to be running as I noticed some battery drain even with the screen off.

I did a factory reset from the UI, not luck. Did a wipe from recovery. Same issue.

Has anyone had a similar issue before?

Thanks for your help!
[LG Watch Sport] quicksilvr:
Update - The problem still exists, but I narrowed it down.

I turned off the watch, fully charged it and powered it on. Turned on everything that could be turned on and let it sit on the table. Checked it every now and then, it seems to be working. Ran the battery out, recharged it and did the same for about 2 more cycles. It seemed to work. The only times this 'freeze' happens is when I wear it, which got me to thinking it's probably the hear rate sensor. Opened Fit and started reading the heart rate - if it's not on my wrist, the sensor just keeps going on for a minute or so and then turns off. But if I so much a put a finger on the sensors, all it takes is 30 secs, and it freezes.

Let me try to get some logs over the weekend.
[LG Watch Sport] quicksilvr:
For anyone that's wondering. The watch is alive again. After about 4 months of collecting dust, I figured I'll boot it up and see how it holds up.

Turned it on and charged it for a couple of hour, then the latest Wear OS updated was pushed - a couple of them actually.

Let it sit in the cradle for a day, and wore it, without expecting much. Been about 5 weeks now. No crashes or freezes. Battery lasts much longer - about 2 days with LTE & NFC off.

One thing to note though. Up until a few weeks ago, I used to charge it via usb from my desktop. Since the last reboot, I started charging it using the wall plug.

Not sure if it was this, or the new Wear OS that fixed the issue, I'm glad it's working again and I don't need to go back to my Gear S3 and Tizen *cringe*

[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] mookiexl:
Anybody know of a fix for the ridiculous amount of lag on Pie? Between that and the sad excuse of video recording, I'm really debating on going back to my buttery smooth Z2force. The only problem is this phone is pure eye candy, comfortable to hold, and my hands have betrayed my eyes recognition of the lag and fell in love this phone. . The performance is more like snapdragon 620 than 835. Any help regarding this situation would be highly appreciated
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] garywojdan81:
I have no lag on Pie, beta 3 or official. Sounds like your due for a full wipe
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] mookiexl:
Well now that sucks considering I just moved about 90gigs to the device and thought I did a full wipe but just notice Alexa still installed. The funny thing is I had very little late lag on Beta 3.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] GuestK00177:
I discovered this a month ago and it helps.just go to root/system/buildprop. Add the following to right under additional build settings.then reboot. That's the default setting, but u can mess with the value to get it to your liking
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] DoR3M3:
You're only saying there is lag, you're not describing where you are seeing this lag?

The only thing I can say is I thought apps would open faster on this, I have a phone with a SD625, and between this and the Essential, opening and closing apps seems like the same speed. But the startup on the Essential is faster...
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] mookiexl:
Scrolling in-app, swiping in-app and launcher, and also scrolling cards in recents. I have a z2force with SD835 and comparing this phone to the z2 this phone feels like an SD626
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] garywojdan81:
If I were you, I'd wipe everything, and then fastboot the full official pie update. Just to fully eliminate software.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Aburel18:
Hi there I am the same boat like you . I got lag typing on keyboard scroll is not smooth at all .I tried reinstalling the latest build and factory full reset pus wipe all data .I can't resolve the lag I think they rush to get it in the same date like the pixel but is not optimised for this device for example get an icon and hold it and get it to place it in another location you will find out that the icon is behind when you move it

The only and I think temporary fix is by doing this

Go and click 5 times on build number and go in developer settings you will find there touch sensitivity set it to 10 let say default is 4 I think . You will improve touch latency a bit .

I just bought the device I don't know how it was on Oreo but I can say on this pie build official is not smooth
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] DoR3M3:
[MENTION=3816358]mookiexl[/MENTION] got to the Developer Options;

Windows animation scale - off

Transition animation scale - off or .5x

Animator duration scale - off or .5x

Also increasing the 'Touch Sensitivity' increases the scrolling speed.

Play with these and watch it fly! LOL ;)

It would be great if someone can take a video so we can actually see this lag with our own eyes.

I just got my phone and it turned out bad, sending it back, new one on the way. It makes me wonder now if all the stories about bad hardware is true on these phones, since I've never had a bad phone ever in my life, then my first Essential turns out bad.

Wifi problems connecting

Statusbar icons appearing in white, turn all black

Phone speaker, bad quality, can't even turn it up, or it gets distorted

Head speaker, is low, volume isn't loud enough

Adaptive brightness doesn't work

Volume got stuck at one point when it was set as all the way down, no sound, then I wasn't able turn the sound back on, nothing would happen on either buttons...

So hopefully new phone arriving will be better, and from this experience, I think I'll keep it on Oreo for a long time, until people start raving over Pie.

And between a SD625 and this SD835, can't say I saw a big speed difference too... hmm
