nice app! here is my wishlist! could even make them part of the paid version.

- dark theme

- ability to set a non image as the album cover. maybe like a color picker or something.

- a direct app to app share/sync feature. you could set up a tab in the app for shares. ppl can share individual photos or videos encrypted, directly to each other and then would show up as a share item in the share tab. you could also have a shared album between apps/ppl in there as well for ongoing additions rather than sharing one at a time. it could work where you want to share an item and it would give you a one time code that you would send to the other person and input it on their end establishing the direct connection for the data transfer.

i would pay for these for sure.

[LineageOS Questions & Answers] evjohns:
I've installed Lineage 15.1 on my S9. Baseband BRF5. Everything works fine except the camera, when i open either the google camera (downloaded with Gapps) or OpenCamera i get the same error - "App couldn't connect to camera". I've tried factory reset, re-flashing lineage and gapps, deleting cache and uninstalling updates for the camera, but nothing has worked. I had an older version installed a while ago and the camera worked fine on that.

Anyone else experience this? Or know of a fix?
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] dkryder:
It sounds like a similar problem I had with an OnePlus. The fix then was reflash the firmware which is not the same as ROM. So is S9 has a firmware package I would try that.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] evjohns:
I was on the latest stock firmware before i installed lineage, but obviously did a full wipe in twrp before. Could that be the issue? If so, can i flash the firmware with twrp? Or do i need to flash the entire samsung firmware in Odin?
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] dkryder:
If Samsung has just the firmware in a .zip then flash that over Los. If you do the whole ROM you might end up where you are now after you flash Los , but you could try another complete install
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] evjohns:
Think i may have found the issue, in case anyone else experiences this problem. From the support ticket:

https://jira.lineageos.org/browse/BUGBASH-1784

It seems that Lineage 15.1 only supports the BRE5 baseband, i'd updated mine to BRF8 recently.

I'll try flashing the full BRE5 rom tonight and see if that fixes the problem, but it seems likely that it will. I'll update this later if i manage to fix.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] evjohns:
Just to confirm, reverting back to BRE5 firmware fixed the camera issue.

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] rippledrums:
Hi all!

I've been trying to replace the pre-installed Chrome with Chrome Beta with no luck. Also tried other browsers with the same results.

I've tried as a system app and user app and setting as default but, once I freeze or completely remove Chrome, I get a lot of force closes when opening links via webview. Also tried changing the webview implementation in developer settings but the issue persists.

What am I doing wrong? Is there some system setting/prop/file that needs to be changed for this?

Any help is appreciated. :confused:

EDIT: I'm running Oxygen OS 5.0.4 on a OnePlus 3T if that helps.

[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] Nikolay1243D:
Hi, I've found an Indian version but am worried the import tax is gonna be massive...they're selling it for £650 so how can I calculate the import fee?
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] Step666:
There are a few online calculators that you can try.

But, at a minimum, you'd pay 20% VAT plus the handling charge - so you're talking ballpark another £140 on top.

Plus, depending on the tariff code for mobile phones, there may be an additional duty on top of that but ti's hard to get a definitive answer about that online.
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] Lascif:
Hi,

I bought from UK and used a firm on ebay based from Ireland.

If you can just avoid Norway, Switzerland, India and Hong Kong as all will have a lot of import duty.

If you buy from an Irish based company on ebay you pay the conversion rate (Usually on Paypal) and that's it. No import duties.
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] Nikolay1243D:
True but what are the chances of the Irish sellers having the Indian version?
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] Nikolay1243D:
Oh lol **** that
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] Step666:
That's not entirely correct.

Switzerland, whilst not part of the EU, is part of a larger European Customs Union, meaning that goods imported/exported between Switzerland and the rest of the EU are treated the same as if it were between EU member states.

I'm not sure about Norway but I wouldn't be surprised if the same were true.
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] Lascif:
When I checked we apparently still had to play customs duty which is still a considerable amount of money.

"Customs Regulations. As mentioned above, because Switzerland is not an active member of the EU, all imported goods have to be customs-cleared. In most cases this mean that you are subject to paying duty on your import from Switzerland, and the amount will vary depending on the specific type of goods you are importing."

Buying from Ireland to the UK is the best bet and is cheaper.

Why Indian version specifically? The EAN of the HK one matches and so is essentially the same phone.
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] Step666:
Weird, that's the opposite of what I'd found when I looked into it.

I ordered one from Switzerland, so I guess I'll find out soon...
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] Lascif:
I'm going by based on the Governments stance on it all.

Sometimes countries will misvalue the item being set or say it's a gift on the shipping information to avoid the duty.

The only times duty is usually charged is when it is truly exported from a place like Switzerland to the UK (It will usually be on the outside of the package)

Also https://www.gov.uk/goods-sent-from-abroad

It mentions that even though other Countries are not in the EU they are in the EEA but it doesn't go both ways. This means for small time consumers they still have to pay import from these non-eu countries.

You may be lucky and have it sent as a gift though.
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] Nikolay1243D:
Cause that one doesnt have the chinese assistant on the left and you dont have to go through hoops to remove the chinese apps/get nova working properly... I guess my best bet is to wait for a month and see if vivo release a true international one.
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] Lascif:
Please read my prior posts.

I have a HK Version phone that is International. The phone does not have issues removing any of the chinese apps and like the other international models has Google Assistant instead of the Jovi button.

I have Nova fully working with 0 issues and the phone works flawlessly.

I can post proof or evidence if you want or answer more questions.
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] Nikolay1243D:
Oh really? I just assumed HK=The chinese version

If that's the case then I've seen a couple of HK versions on ebay :)
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] Step666:
I think there have been a few people have bought ones advertised as 'Hong Kong model' only to find it's the Chinese one with Google Play pre-installed.
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] Nikolay1243D:
well we'll find out some time in the future cause I ordered an HK one from ireland
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] Nikolay1243D:
Ugh I ordered last Thursday but the seller is shipping today and says it will take 6-8 days to get to me *rolls eyes*
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] Nikolay1243D:
Yep got the nex s HK today after dpd messed up with the delivery yesterday, can also confirm that is basically the international version :)
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] Step666:
Mine arrived on Friday, didn't get a chance to spend much time with it until today though.

Same story, it actually was the HK version, not just a Chinese one with Google Play installed - EAN on the box matched, no Vivo account needed, most of the Chinese bloat removed.

Spent today ADBing some of the remaining bloat, installing Nova, GCam etc.

Really pleased, seems like a decent successor to my OG Mi Mix.
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] Nikolay1243D:
Something I noticed with gcam is if the hdr isn't on, it would take the picture and then "boil" it 1 second later

I think this is really very easy and convenient because you just need to message and you will immediately receive the necessary response. In addition, this company has excellent reviews on the account of filing taxes. I hope they will help me.

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] RealSaturos:
Hello,

I am trying to accomplish the following situation:

I have a OnePlus 3 (no root) with OnePlus-Stock Android 8.0.0 Patch Level Juli 2018 and want to setup a 2nd user only for SIM Card2 and the first primary user(Admin) for SIM Card1, but it does not matter if Admin sees and can use both sim cards. But for the second user I want it that he only can use the SIM-Card in slot 2 and not SIM-Card1 for sms, calling and so.

I searched for apps and so on, but is this even possible and if yes also without rooting the phone?

I also thougt about something like virtualization, so if the built in users feature can not handle that, is there somekind of vm app where I can create a controlled environment for a 2nd user with only access to sim card 2 and app installs/use is also possible?

Thanks in advance for your help

Ground test point , then unblock bootloader using mtk client
[General Questions and Answers] Ank Sak:
Hitting any more bumps? Eh? The only way it seems is grounding the test point and it's different for CPH1723 & CPH1727. Open the motherboard & ground test point using pincher. Connect usb , run any tool that works with test point (mtk client-gui is readily available). The only way to open doors of development for this Pain in the bum model.

Your sacrifice may start development of this device.

Oh c'mon Dev, try test point!!! It's fairly simple, try mtkclient , & tell what u find.

[General Questions and Answers] Ank Sak:
So the YouTube link is completely removed by xda , I am sorry I broken some rule without knowing it , but I will help fellow members of this device by giving some info, ie , search " oppo f5 cph1727 new security unlock " with name of YouTube channel " technology 666 " , you get the method of opening motherboard, to flash rom, by grounding test point.

I support no illegal activity whatsoever. I shared this video for the purpose of sharing info on flashing rom, since with this device anything is impossible & so there is no development since 5 YRS of its launch. I hope it helps.
[General Questions and Answers] Ank Sak:
Go for it, unlock bootloadr using mtk client gui , or some other tool, with grounding test point , since there are no roms built till now , you can experiment with installing GSI .

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] bihariel:
Well, great news for European (I'm from Spain) users.

Recently I bricked my Mate 10 ALP-L09 by flashing an xloader 01 firmware over a 02, obviously I discovered the app for checking the xloader later (damn) and obviously the phone broke, it didn't turn on, just black screen, it appeared on pc as USB SRV...

So I sent it to the support service claiming that it bricked after updating to the last firmware OTA. Well now they told me that my phone has been repaired and its ready to be sent home. ?

The phone's bootloader was unlocked and with a different cust and firmware (specifically the Alp-Al00c00 the Chinese version B311 emui 8.1), I don't know if that one has xloader 01 but I was on a B141 for L09, I flashed that Chinese firmware before several times and I always was able to go back to B135 for alp-l09 but not this time because B141 was xloader 02. The phone was a brick.

I haven't received the phone yet but I will update once it arrives, I want to see if they relocked the bootloader and if my unlock code still works.

Well played Huawei. ?

I have an SPL with WM6 (PUMA_T). Unfortunately, none of the original i-mate SPL (WM5) unlock mechanisms work, nor does SDA_applicationunlock. RegeditSTG2 won't work either ... I assume because it is signed by HTC, not by tech faith wireless or i-mate.

The Microsoft SCM shows that it is a two-tier prompt configuration type, with grant manager role to Operator_TPS (128). As such, the Microsoft SDK cert.cab won't run even manually installed, and I'm not sure what else to try.

I was thinking about a registry editor that was signed for M2M, but Resco Explorer was the only one that I saw that was ... and it didn't allow the security policy registry entries to be changed either.

To be honest it isn't going to be a problem and it will be very sharp
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] God of Thunder:
It will be a problem if it's PenTile. Just look at S 8.4 (360ppi @ PenTile) versus S 10.5 (280ppi @ s-stripe RGB). The second one was infinitely sharper. I had to return my 8.4 inch and get the 10.5.

If this one is 280ppi @ PenTile, it's going to suck. Of course, it doesn't matter on phones because they're at 500+ ppi. It will matter at below 300ppi.
