I'm back to rootless 3.7, seems to be much snappier than the Nova 6 regardless of the customization I want functionality and the google feed is something to keep me busy, informed, and educated.

Samsung Experience 9.0
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] mameenbh:
After trying most of the launchers recommended, here are my findings and how I setup my phone:

-I'm sticking with Samsung UI (it's fast and gets most of the settings I need like swipe down for notifications and swipe up for app drawer)

- Create folders in my app drawer so I can find the apps sorted in my app drawer

- Use 5x6 Grid and use 2 rows for the most important apps in my homescreen

- Edge Panel will also include some apps to reduce clutter on my homescreen plus the calculator Panel is something I got used to there.

- I will not disable Bixby, although the page isn't very helpful to me but using the button to remind me of things, add and delete alarms, etc. is a good experience.

- Infinity wallpapers from the default theme are nice simple and functional

The good:

- Uniformity in all the UI in terms of icons which I consider is good since I'm a bit OCD when an icon doesn't match the rest of the UI. When you use a launcher the apps icons stays stock even if you change the icons.

- Compatibility on the other hand for example, when you download a game, Game launcher will automatically delete the game icon and have your game in the game launcher whereas when using a launcher you'll have both the game icon and the game launcher icon, I know some will ask me to hide the icon but I'm talking about those small things.

- Dual App, if you have the dual sim version like me and use dual apps, most launcher will hide the duall app, not recognize it or will recognize it but can't get it in some options.

The Bad:

- I really miss the google feed page but I kept the google app on my homescreen to check that out everytime I feel like holding my phone.

- Customization is also another thing but I came to notice that functionality and productivity is what helps me more although Samsung's UI looks better than stock and the Huawei launcher which I owned during the last 3 months.

I have shifted from the stock launcher to rootles pixel 3.8.3 and here's what I do:

Install Blueberry Pie from the Samsung Themes

Install rootless pixel 3.8.3 and its companion by Amir Zaidi

Pixelful icon packs

What I like:

- Google Feed

- Fluidity

- Hiding the apps I have on my homescreen

What I don't like:

- Wallpapers will look larger or zoomed in

Anyone knows how i can "lock" widgets? What I mean is when i have two pages of icons and scroll, i want the clock widget to stay in place, be locked and not follow the "swipe" if you know what i mean. I just want the icons to move. I use Nova Launcher Pro and KWGT. Thanks

Flip flop between nova prime beta and the new apex. Only thing I don't like about apex is that I can't figure out how to set widgets and icons to move ½ a space. Other than that, I prefer apex, it's less glitchy.

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] bubu3k:
Nova launcher as well, gave up experimenting with others

The second row of icons (above the doc) acts as go to page on click, or open app on swipe.

The doc icons act as app launcher on click and folders on swipe.

Gestures (nova gestures & onehand+)

Double tap:app search

Swipe up: app drawer

Swipe down: notifications

Edge swipes:back, home, recent apps

Im also trying out the Evie Launcher and thus far i like it. It looks nice.

Im not sure about the speed, because i have noticed my S9+ getting more sluggish lately but i believe it was before i even knew about Evie. So try it out fellas and post a report on that if you want would be neat!

[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] Diesel_Jeremiah:
First: Yes, I did search extensively on how to properly update from 8.1 to 9.0.

I couldn't locate anything.

My questions are:

1) Can I dirty flash the 9.0 update over my 8.1 with factory image with -w removed?

2) Will a dirty flash cause issues that any of you have encountered?

3) Is there a benefit of keeping the -w and starting over fresh?

4) Is it worth moving on to 9.0 now or wait until the September update?

I dirty flashed and haven't seen any issues yet. I figured the OTA don't wipe your data so why should i when i flash it myself. No issues here.
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] Diesel_Jeremiah:
As far as I understand, OTA does not work with TWRP flashed.

Did you use the OTA via sideload or the Factory Image with -w removed?

[Sony Xperia XZ1  Questions & Answers] dustygator:
After flashing my new dual-sim XZ1 with Central Europe firmware in order to use the fingerprint sensor. (following this guide), I am having camera issues.

After googling around, I seem to have the symptoms of having erased the camera DRM keys from unlocking the bootloader (stock camera app does not take pictures, other apps result in solid green screen).

eg. https://xdaforums.com/xperia-xz1/help/camera-doesnt-lock-bootloader-t3718051

However, the service menu shows that I did not unlock the bootloader.

What happened? Did the firmware just not install correctly?

Can I just try to re-flash the Central Europe firmware (and hope it fixes the camera while enabling fingerprint), the original NA firmware (fix camera but back to no fingerprint) or another region?

Or did the DRM keys really get deleted, meaning I am screwed with the camera? Thankfully, I still have a few days to return the phone.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  Questions & Answers] chrisftlse:
Hi,

I currently running same device and quite the same update version without your issue.

My s1 boot version is 82 (yours is 78)

Custo version and active custo slightly differs too (in versionning).

Try to factory reset via computer (Sony companion).

If still no success, send it to repair workshop and claim warranty (software update pushed without success).

Keep us informed bro
[Sony Xperia XZ1  Questions & Answers] dustygator:
I used Xperia companion to repair software and everything was fixed. (It automatically restored the CE firmware as I still have fingerprint)

Probably something went wrong in my initial firmware flash, maybe an important camera-related file in the wrong place or something. But it's good to know that the green camera is not solely a DRM-key issue.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  Questions & Answers] nagaknight:
Download the firmware with xperifirm and and try flashing with newflasher instead if you're using flashtool. After having the same issue on any firmware I tried this seemed to fix it.
[General Questions and Answers] lukasnoname:
I have a backup made with Asus PC Tool 1.0.0.6 with valuable data (Bitcoin key in the Bitcoin Wallet app, de.schildbach.wallet), and I had Android 4.3 during the backup. When I upgraded to Android 4.4 (KitKat), the Bitcoin key was suddenly gone, and restoring the backup did just restore photos and text messages, not the valuable program data. This happened in late 2013.

Later on the phone broke because of faulty charging port and battery. And I realized that 4.4

I've now been able to repair my phone with replacing the charging port and battery.

As before, restoring to Android 4.4 did just restore photos and text messages, so I did a downgrade to 4.1, as 4.3 wasn't available on the Asus site.

But the restore button doesn't even show up in Asus PC Tool when I have Android 4.1 on the phone. I had mail contact with Asus tech support, and they say I need Android 4.3 for a full restore, but they didn't provide me with that version.

So is there a rom with Android 4.3 for Padfone 2, a better version of Asus PC Tool or a way to extract program data from the Asus PC Tool backup? The backup contains around 11000 files of different sizes with names resembling universally unique identifiers (UUID).
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] N8DeTar:
I know that RCS is largely carrier specific but I was wondering if anyone had it working on their Honor 5x. I have T-Mobile which claims to have normal RCS enabled and the Universal Profile enable for certain devices, but I've been unable to find any way to enable it. Sprint also has RCS and was wonder if anyone with sprint could say whether it was working for them on their Honor 5x. I read that there should be a menu in settings under advanced called enhanced features, which I don't have. Any information would be appreciated.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] yodap:
I'm optimistic but I'm sure that it won't be...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] TehPenguin:
Unlikely

A lot of the Original development for WM6 was done on the Universal, because thats what the Engineers at Microsoft have (and because its so awesome :P )

So it would appear that Microsoft's Engineers are doing dev of WM6.1 on the Universal too. While this may mean that there is not likely to be an official version; it does offer hope of some nice ROM and driver leaks...

UPDATE:

I love it how the video says "Windows Mobile Browser 6.0 on WM 6.1" and yet the site is claiming "Mobile Internet Explorer 6.1"
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] galt:
At 55 seconds the presenter has changed the device that is being projected on to the larger display. The zooming you see is the person taping the event zooming THEIR camera out to capture the whole screen. The IMAGE displayed on the JasJar doesn't change except when they swap one (possibly a different unit, lol) in to view with a STATIC portrait display of a web page. The keyboard icon you see is a frequent graphic artifact in Windows Mobile, often when full screen applications are interrupted (like orientation changes) the stupid little keyboard icon appears and doesn't go away even when full screen mode is returned. I did actually see that in PIE frequently on my Uni, but i believe also in many full screen image viewers.

I guess I just chuckle when a static image of a browser feature that isn't going to be finished for 9-12 months is displayed on an old device becomes a call for a ROM dump and hope for a 6.1 upgrade for the Uni. If it was capable of rendering the YouTube video, wouldn't they have shown it playing the video? Sure the Uni might get this feature down the road, but only if the XDA hackers put one together after it's made available for other device.

*Edit - that's definitely a device swap @ 1:15: never before in the history of Windows Mobile has a Universal changed from landscape to portrait and redrawn the screen entirely in less than 1 second.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] DJ Palmis:
Oh.. I see.. You're right.

Yes, He has two Universals. The probability of an official WM6.1 is nonexistent.

I had only an hope to dump that rom.. But you say it's a stupid picture.. Now.. I don't have even an hope! :(
