I didn't pay enough attention to MS policies, since Word worked just fine on my Tab s3 with the free account I have. Got my Tab s4 yesterday, and it was a disappointment that it wouldn't allow editing now. But there's some good alternatives out there that are free, and maybe MS will change that policy (not likely)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] M9x3mos:
Yeah if you read the listing in the play store, it is free on devices with 10.1 inch and smaller devices. So sadly since this is bigger, it would need to be paid for.

wow, that's really a deal breaker
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] Haque:
Dear, I also have the same problem, MS Office 365 is not working without subscription. In fact, once you start MS Word etc, it takes you to the subscription window (MS Office 365). Someone should give a clear way how we can delete this package and revert to the old MS Office or what other options are available and how can we get those and from where? I personally feel that Samsung should not pre-install MS Office with there devices. Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] N1NJATH3ORY:
You have to pay to use Microsoft Word, Excel, if the Tablet is 10.5 inch or above, this is one of the reason i rooted to remove the stupid pay restriction! Can't you try in dev options, if you can change the resolution maybe you could bypass it that way ?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] aspexil:
I never use Micro$oft software so I booted up my S4 and took a look. Yup, you need 365 subscription to use it. There are plenty of non M$ packages out there that are free. This is Android after all.

No but it will be read only if you are using dex on a large screen. Yes if you want to edit files. VERY lame but I get why they did it.

[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] boricuastock:
Hi All,

I finally decided to update to Widevine L1 because I thought why not. It was a quick and painless process as I was able to reflash my TWRP backup and was back up and running in minutes. Come to find out though I am having issues playing netflix.... When I try to open netflix I get the error, "Sorry, we could not reach the Netflix service. Please try again later. [-9]." I couldn't find much on it until I stumbled across this thread

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2527627&page=4

Is anyone aware of a workaround this? I did a reset and was able to get netflix back but as soon as I got Magisk on there it seems, the error came back. I know I can run stock without root but that would just make me want to ditch this phone. If anyone has any experience or ways to get around this please share. The forum above references a file to rename which I was unable to actually find.

Thanks!
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] abeysoft:
Try hiding root from Netflix using Magisk hide root option
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] boricuastock:
I have hidden it and it doesn't work. Not sure if it is a Magisk thing that needs updating or a OnePlus issue. To be clear I have hidden Google Pay and Netflix, both of which now act funny when I try to use them. I am otherwise on the latest version of OOS with latest Magisk. Safteynet passes without a problem.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] boricuastock:
To those that run into this issue, the Magisk module liboemcrypto disabler will fix issues with Netflix not launching. It essentially just takes your device back to Widevine L3 which means no HD Netflix streaming still, but it will at least work :crying:
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] charlie..:
Can I undo going back to Widevine L3 by myself once this issue is fixed or do I have to send my phone again to oneplus or does this "fix" let netflix think I'm on L3 while my phone stays on L1?
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] boricuastock:
You will not need to send the phone back in. I don't know much about widevine but all this does is remove or mask a file on the filesystem that is needed as part of the check. If you reset the device or put the file back, the Widevine L1 is back. By using the module or moving the file you are just temporarily undoing the certification. Basically I think of it as there is a hardware and software fix for the update to L1. You are undoing the software and oneplus did the hardware side. When put together you get L1 otherwise you only get L3.

I did just disable the module and got L1 back after reboot, fyi.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] Misanful:
Netflix has implemented a new way to "protect" their Widevine L1 content (AKA HD Content) that doesnt work with unlocked phones even if it is stock but only unlocked (it is protected by signed bootloaders). The only way right now to get Netflix working is by removing or renaming the file "/system/lib/liboemcrypto.so" it may also be in "/vendor/lib/". But by doing that you of course lose access to HD content protected with Widevine, Note that also other services uses this and if i remember correctly Amazon's video service for an example.

Im hoping netflix comes to their senses sometime soon but right now this is the situation unfortunately.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] charlie..:
Issue with prime video 1080p on android

Thank you for your explainations. With amazons "prime video" content is another problem to get it in 1080p, because just a few devices are supported. I think they are all on widevine L1 but are additional special supported by amazon (I don't know why).

Those are the devices:

Streaming Video Quality: UHD/HDR/HD on Sony Xperia XZ Premium mobile devices; HDR /HD on Samsung Galaxy Note 7, Galaxy 8, 8+, Galaxy Tab S3, Sony Xperia XZ1 ; SD on all other Android devices

[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] harpin14789:
Is there a certain version of the apk that will work before Netflix pushed this patch?
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] Misanful:
Dont quote me on this but i THINK there is some version before May 2017 that works without changing the liboemcrypto.so but if i remember correctly the HD support is still not going to work. :crying:

[HTC Excalibur] sergiopi:
1) To edit the contact link Total Commander isn't needed. Use resco explorer, Action, Open Widh, Notepad. Edit, then Save and exit Notepad

2)I've mapped the right key to SEND SMS to the contact

I've copied and renamed, using Activesync, all Dial_Contact**m.lnk located in \Storage Card\Program Files\Excalibur Photo Dialer\ as SMS_Contact**m.lnk (** stands for contact's phone number)

I've opened and modified the shortcut as 44#"\Windows\Tmail.exe" -service "SMS" -to "+xx-xxx-xxxx" (XXXX stands for the contact's phone number )

3) Using OLDSAP Favorites is easy to rename in CPhotoDial panel, SK2TEXT as Send SMS and the SK2URL to \Storage Card\Program Files\Excalibur Photo Dialer\SMS_Contact**m.lnk

DONE

[HTC Excalibur] sully78:
ah, heck i'll just flash the new rom.
[HTC Excalibur] sergiopi:
The best way to test if the SMS_Contact**m.lnk works is to launch it from resco explorer. If it doesn't work may be you made a TYPO in the shortcut (forgotten " or UPPER/lowercase problem, double space or no space)

The Correct debugging is done opening the SMS_Contact1m.lnk:

1) LEAVE ONLY

44#"\Windows\Tmail.exe"

SAVE AND LAUNCH, are you in the messaging application? YES

2) open again and write

44#"\Windows\Tmail.exe" -service "SMS"

SAVE AND LAUNCH,are you in the SMS inbox? YES

3) open again and write

44#"\Windows\Tmail.exe" -service "SMS" -to "+1111"

SAVE AN LAUNCH, are you trying to send an SMS to 1111? YES

END

If any NO double check and repeat :)
[HTC Excalibur] skaroger867:
i cant get this to work for nothing. lol maybe im missing something. i know ricky put it in his new rom but i just flashed maybe a few hours before he put it out.

so you just synced to your pc, copied over the Dial_contact**m.ink renamed it, edited it (on pc or phone?) then ran it to see if it worked?

I have a suggestion, Ricky why u dont do like Kavana´s did with the keymap ?

There´s a problem when u try, using other keymap language, like portuguese, the problem is with the xt9 why u dont use et9 ?

Maybe Im talking a lot of bullshits, but I saw that u are using XT9 and when I change the language nothing happen,

could u check that ?

It's very bad to see that people are using software that I developed for the Shadow: Photo Dialer, CHome Menu, etc... using all the icons that I moded with Photshop, even the same URL for Action Keys... and nobody gives credit for it.

I don't mind sharing software with people (that is why I put together a site for it) but some credit would be appreciated.

Everytime I use an idea from someone (e.g. Dialer using vjay dialer, cyberbuddha's interface tweaks) at least I mention that people in the description of the software.

It's not "bad" to see people using it. It's not like you own the software. You just discovered how to tweak Microsoft's software. It IS bad that we're not giving credit where credit is due. But then again, this is a different forum, a different phone, etc.... Credit would be nice, but you don't have to whine about it :) I've created a few cabs myself with settings for people and not always credit for it. But then again, it's okay... because it's not my software :)

[General Questions and Answers] britechguy:
Hello All,

I have recently been shopping for 3rd party phones to use with T-Mobile, and have been successful with two Xiaomi phones, a Redmi 5 Plus and a Mi Max 2. I also have a T-mobile supplied Samsung Galaxy S7.

The 4G LTE download speeds on the Redmi 5 Plus are consistently much faster than on the Galaxy S7, which I did not expect, and based on what T-Mobile says about the bands they use, what Xiaomi says about the bands available on their devices, and what I found for the Galaxy S7. I have never seen information that is as confusing as this, and becomes more so as I dig in to it more.

The T-Mobile support page for their bands in use is: https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-4988

The bands for the Xiaomi devices, which I've tried to "map" against the above:

Mi Max 2

GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900,

UMTS2100 (B1), UMTS1900 (B2), UMTS850 (B5), UMTS900 (B8),

CDMA800 (BC0),

TD-SCDMA2000, TD-SCDMA1900,

LTE2100 (B1), LTE1800 (B3), LTE850 (B5), LTE2600 (B7), LTE900 (B8),

TD-LTE2600 (B38), TD-LTE1900 (B39), TD-LTE2300 (B40), TD-LTE2500 (B41)

Redmi 5 Plus

GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900

HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100

LTE band 1(2100), 3(1800), 5(850), 40(2300), 41(2500)

Galaxy S7

2G GSM: GSM850, GSM900, dcs1800, pcs1900

3G UMTS: B1 (2100), B2 (1900), B4 (AWS), B5 (850) 3 G TDSCDMA: B34 (2010), B39 (1880)

4G FDD LTE: B1, B3 (1800, 2100), B2 (1900)), B4 (AWS), B5 (850 B18), B7 (2600),

B8 (900), B12 (700), (800), B19 (800), B20, B30 (2300) (800), B29 (700)

4G LTE TDD: B38 (2600), B39 (1900), B40 (2300), B41 (2500)

According to Xiaomi's specs, I am not supposed to have LTE Band 4 on the devices regardless of whether it's FDD or TDD, yet when using the Redmi 5 Plus with the Network Cell Info Lite app, it shows me as being on LTE band 4. The Galaxy consistently shows up on band 12. All checks are being done in the same physical location, my home, so as not to make this any more messy than it already is.

Then add to that the T-Mobile page regarding bands notes band 66, which is described as, "Extension of band 4 on 1700/2100 MHz," which could account for the Redmi being considered on band 4, but Xiaomi does not designate band 4 as falling into these ranges, and use band 1 instead.

I am just curious if there is any site that really pulls this all together in a comprehensible way. Most that I've reviewed are not up to date or contain obvious errors just based on the fact that my Redmi 5 Plus does, indeed, get 4G LTE and a number of sites say it should not, but you can't argue with field testing that shows that it does.

Any insights would be much appreciated.

Hi all,

I sideloaded the August 2018 security update yesterday, and I'm noticing that the bluetooth media function is no longer working.

When I view paired devices I see "(no media)" next to them, and the bluetooth receiver (in this case, two car stereo's) also report that the device is not connected.

My phone still pairs and calls can be made and received without issue.

Checking the bluetooth settings on my phone I have media audio switched on. Toggling it makes no difference.

I've completely removed the pairing from the phone and car and re-paired successfully but still without the option to stream media.

Before I go down the road of wiping the phone and installing the full factory image I thought I would ask here if anyone else has experienced this?

Some googling revealed it has happened to other Android phones over the years with varying rates of success from re-pairing to factory resetting.

As a side note, should I be updating the driver binaries that are available on the Android Factory Images page when I sideload these updates?

PS. I have an unlocked bootloader with custom recovery using TWRP 3.2.3.0 and root access using Magisk 16.7.

[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] popculturepooka:
I just recently had to move back to Australia after a few years in Japan.

Before I left I spoke to AU (my Japanese provider) about unlocking my Xperia XZ (sov34). They advised me to use their online form, which I did. A follow up call to their help line confirmed the unlock worked.

It didn't.

Back in Australia, when I put an Australian sim card in it tells me "SIM locked by operator - no service" in the notifications bar.

Doing *#*#7378423#*#* reveals this:

The entries read

[] Network 0

[x] Network subset 10

[] Service provider 0

[] Corporate 0

[] SIM 0

Also, putting in an Aussie sim doesn't give me an option at all to enter an unlock code.

Is there anything I can do? I am willing to pay for an unlock code through a trustworthy site, as long as it will actually work. I don't want to pay and find out the phone is impossible to unlock.
