getting ERROR 7 on TWRP. anyone can help ? :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] errut:
Maybe this question has been asked before. I`m presently on an unlocked LineageOS 15.1, which works perfectly so far.

I was told that Volte isn`t working on any AOSP-Image. It should be original or TouchWiz. My provider is O2 and I would like to know which version of mod-rom available in this forum, would give me a chance with Volte and Wifi-Call.

[LG Stylo 2 Plus Questions & Answers] greerdd:
Hi,

Am trying to restore my LG Stylo 2 phone, K550 model, back to health after my experiments with different ROMs trashed system files.

So I have installed (in the following order):

1. LGMobileDriver_WHQL_Ver_4.2.0.exe

2. LGUP_8994_DLL_Ver_0_0_3_23.msi

3. LGUP_Install_Ver_1_14_3.msi

4. Uppercut_1.0.0.0.exe

When I put the phone into the download mode and connect it to the PC, Windows says "Found new hardware Android" and opens the Found New Hardware Wizard that wants to install a driver for the new Android device. Since I already installed all the drivers and DLLs that were described [1] as needed for LG UP to work (see above) I am not sure what other driver I should install with the wizard. If I just cancel out of the wizard Windows says "A problem occurred during installation, your new hardware might not work properly".

And indeed, LG UP does not see the phone and does not work properly. Running LG UP directly or through Uppercut results in "There is no handset connected. Please connect a handset" error.

Any ideas? Thanks

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] VirtualTed:
Hi guys,

I've done quite a bit of reading and there are some old guides with outdated links, but nothing current that seems to be something I can follow.

I have an LGV20 H918 that I have installed TWRP on and would like to return to completely stock. I used this guide - https://xdaforums.com/v20/how-to/step-step-guide-lg-v20-h918-unlocking-t3808258 to get where I am if it makes a difference.

Currently, everything is wiped, no system is installed. Now, any attempt to use UPPERCUT / LGUP to install the H91810p_00_0717.kdz file won't work because LGUP won't see the phone in download mode - because I have TWRP 3.2.1-3 installed instead.

Is there a quick way to return the phone to a state where the original download mode exists (Volume Up & USB plug in) and I can use LGUP to reinstall the original H91810p firmware? I don't care about root, or TWRP or anything else at this point. Just need to get back to stock.

Thanks for any help! It would be really appreciated.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] onepiece:
Note 9 has a lot of good things going for it . . . but a flagship?

Oreo instead of Pie?

No 5G?

Broadcom‘s new super accurate dual frequency GPS chip not part of the package? (Chip introduced almost a year ago and Xaomi’s already released the M8 with this chip)

Remember 2016? The Samsung A9 had a safe 5,000 mAh battery. Why can’t we put this in this note?

Feel free to add to this list of disappointments. Perhaps some of them will be fixed with the S 10?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] alltaken123:
Would a 5000mah battery in this years Note be a 'safe' marketing move? As a tech enthusiast I'd love to see it, however, I understand why they have played it safe, they need a couple of generations of solid performers without any hiccups before ramping back up. Imagine poor sales vs Note 7 repeat, they can't afford a repeat - I believe the Note would be a doomed product if it happened again.

The latest GPS chip: Samsung recently explained that a highly competitive high end market coupled with a difficulty in adding compelling new features led to poor sales of the S9 group. It's swings and roundabouts, on one hand you could throw everything into your latest and greatest devices, but next year?

Note 9 makes a safe and just about interesting enough entry, it gives Samsung breathing room for next years model. Even the presentation had mention of how difficult it is to come up with new features.

Note 10 - 4500/5000mah battery, 5G, New GPS chip + 1 or 2 more features, makes more sense for a '10' iteration than the '9'.

Technically the Note 8 can support the 1GB speeds. The Note 9 will as well.

https://phandroid.com/2017/09/08/att-gigabit-lte-galaxy-note-8/

5G is not a real tech yet, it's actually called 5G evolution which is a fast LTE which the Note supports.

https://www.computerworld.com/artic...ess/why-atts-5g-evolution-isnt-really-5g.html
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Geekser:
Personally I think the real challenge that Samsung Has is in the processor. Snapdragaon and Exynos have both seen decent improvments over the years but they don't hold a candle to what Apple has done with theirs. Not sure if they will ever win that battle, but I hope they can get closer.

I also believe that we are all going to be blown away by the S10 when it comes out. Samsung is putting ALL of the new HOT stuff they have been working on - INscreen Fingerprint scanner to name one - and I bet there will be bunch more!

I am getting the note 9, I just can't help myself - I am an addict when it comes to these devices - :) but I am really excited to see what is giong to happen when the S10 comes out.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] vaibhavnegi:
You're getting too edgy with this. Pie was not relased during the development and 5g is still far away. Talking about the gps thing even my s7edge gets 4meter accuracy while driving what else do u need? An inch of accuracy!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] nuclearrage:
The only things I wanted, and still hope come true . 1 )flat glass on the screen again, I mean it's a note right, easier to write on. 2) Alcantara case 3) dbrand grip case.

5g is way off, probably 2 generations before wide adoption. GPS has been great since Note 4 so not really seeing the need for that either.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] onepiece:
Good Discussion

Alltaken123,

I would definitely hire you as a customer service rep for Samsung! You have a plausible explanation for the concerns mentioned and your words are very well spoken. Thank you.

Couple of points to consider…

On the GPS chip: anybody who has walked the streets of Tokyo using any current smartphone GPS knows the frustration when you walk around the block three times because reflected GPS signals keep causing the blue dot to jump 100’s of meters when you think you are at your destination. It would be great to have the accuracy and reflected signal rejection Broadcom’s new chip promises.

On the “in glass fingerprint recognition“ that feature is dubious when a phone has facial recognition & a great back side fingerprint scanner... but it’s something new to hype.

And now my favorite… Larger batteries and the direction the industry has moved towards. Your explanation of Samsung being extremely cautious makes perfect sense and is a likely driver for their decision. That’s said, Samsung’s A9 realeased in 2016 with a 5,000 mah battery had no issues. Because it had a mid tier CPU it truly delivered 2 days of heavy use.

I probably should put this one in a separate thread but here’s the short version of what’s going on with battery capacities: phone makers match their battery mah capacity to approximately one day’s worth of power consumption. Why? Because when you charge your phone every day you’ll end up wearing the battery out within two years. In the “old days with replaceable batteries“ you could extend the life of your phone a few years by changing the battery. Now with sealed-in batteries you are virtually compelled to buy a new $800 electronic monitoring bracelet every two years. Pretty slick from a business perspective. Before someone jumps in and tells me you can’t have a water resistant phone with a removable battery, let me share my experience with phones in the Japanese domestic market. Japanese have had replaceable batteries in many of their water resistant cell phones since the 1990s. All it takes is a good o-ring and a decent latch. Today, however, Japan is “mostly” onboard with the lucrative (albeit wasteful) sealed-in battery scheme.

+1 for the flat glass. I'm not buying any phone with the curved screen gimmick.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] onepiece:
Another +1 for USEABLE flat glass....and for recognizing the curve as an artsy gimmick. Narrow 2mm bezels are fine. After all the flesh of one’s hand covers anywhere from 2 to 4 mm of bezel/screen anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Jammol:
Guess I'm the only person that actually likes the curved screen. Function over form is what I always go for.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] PsiPhiDan:
Then why do you like the curved glass? It's absolutely not function over form...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] skally:
I feel exactly the opposite. The curve makes edge swipe gestures far more useful, and I have come to rely on them significantly.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] sefrcoko:
Not alone! To be honest I just like the way the curved glass looks... I always found it gave the phone a more premium feel. Given the choice I would still take curved over flat edges, even though I don't even use the Edge features. Purely an aesthetic preference for me, but others of course may have different tastes and requirements.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] pcriz:
Sometimes the screen protector situation bothers me but Im all for curved glass. Looks sexy
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Jammol:
I like the curved glass screen because of edge display and the edge features. Yes it can be a but annoying with accidental touches but the trade off is worth it for me.

As far as the screen protector issue, that has nothing to do with Samsung. All those screen protector makers are being cheap and stupid. They make full coverage ones with only adhesive on the sides, and they also make case friendly ones with full adhesive. Why the heck can they not make a full coverage one with full adhesive?! Seems very stupid to me that they are having such a hard time making a dang protector that handles both things.

It's only a gimmick if you don't find a use for it. I can think of a lot of people that classifies the SPen as a gimmick. I use the heck out of mine, at least I thought I did until I met a guy that has to replace the tip of his SPen every month! He hooked me up with 3 bags of tips a few months ago after I got my Note 8. I haven't even replaced the tip yet for my original one.

I come to rely Alot on the apps edge since I started using the s7 edge. It helps me switch apps much faster than using the recent button. Well we can have apps That do the same thing but the curve makes it very smooth and natural to use
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] stondec100:
Excited for the Note 9. Pre-ordered the 512gb already.

What does Android P have that Samsung's Oreo does not have more of?

What's the point of hurriedly introducing 5G when the tech is not yet mature. That would make the Note 9 a beta phone which I'm glad it's not.

I agree with the missing GPS chip.

I also agree with a 5kmAh battery

Overall I'm very happy with the Note 9 and consider it a big upgrade over the Note 8.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] varcor:
If you feel the speed of Apple's chipsets are so formidable, you're a bit misguided. First off one can't compare cores, cpu's and graphics processes on crossover devices since they cohabitate and coordinate in totally different environments. IOS can post very high benchmarks on single process runs but after a very short time, a matter of minutes, they really bog down and due to poor RAM Management, background processes need to shut down for the software execution to remain efficent, not so with Snapdragon and Exynos chipsets. Also the A11 chip is 3 times the size of Galaxy chips which limits other internal feature possibilities and have very real issues with overheating. Hope you enjoy your Note 9, right now it's the baddest beast in the jungle!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] easycure1974:
Have your ever used an iPhone X? I can assure you that it does not bog down and it does not heat up. My S9+ does all that but still looking forward to my 512 GB Note 9 arriving
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Jammol:
It does bog down and it does heat up. It's why we don't use them at work. Running a remote desktop app is a chore after 15 minutes on the X.

To be honest, Note9 has no big hardware weakness but no big improvement. I just waiting iPhone Xs+ Dual Sim and users/reviewers confirm Note9 problems free before buying :).

Weakness of Note 9 we can say: Samsung Experience heavily skin. Samsung need to make big software/Rom change.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bat0nas:
Combination of hardware and software features is the reason I'm buying Samsung devices.

If anybody wants lighter skins - one can always go with Pixel or any cheaper phones (OnePlus etc.).

And Samsung Experience is getting better with each iteration. It was bad in 2013. But now we live in 2018. We need to stop complaining.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Zanr Zij:
Better but far from ideal as it should be with high price tag + big player like Samsung. There are too many addin modules in Samsung Rom. They load/preload all background with OS. Many many things we do not need/never touch. This make stutter lags/micro lags also responsive. Samsung can change, can make options to disable something we do not need. Samsung software experience getting worse in about some months :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] dieselhazza:

Dont get me wrong, I am a huge samsung fan and never will use an IPHONE - but I have seen comparisons regarding the Iphone X and Several different Samsung's - snapdragon and Exynos - and the processing time it took IPhone to render a video was like 42 seconds while Samsung took over 2 and a Half minutes t render the same video. There was no comparison. ThaT being said, Samsung Phones are superior in many other ways and I will always use Samsung over IPhones.

What things do you think will be putting device over the Note 9 for consideration?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Zappapp:
Camera, Battery life should be much better. The price could be bit lower and the 980 processor is supposed to be much better than what N9 has in both of its versions. What i would be personally missing is the stylus, but for that i have my N8.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Jammol:
Does Samsung have a contract with Wacom that prevents the SPen tech to be used by other manufacturers?

By the way, if anyone ever wonders why the Note line is often more expensive, that Wacom tech board is not cheap by any means. And no, I'm not saying the device isn't overpriced already.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Zappapp:
There is no contract with Wacom & i don't know as to what prevents other manufacturers to bring mobiles with stylus .

The point is that N9 is a very minor upgrade for somebody with N8 & maybe by adding some money to the upgrade cost ( from N8 to N9 ), one can buy a mobile ( mate 20 Pro ) with a better camera and better battery life than N9 and also retain his N8 .

Since the introduction of the Exynos 9810 and Snapdragon 845 it's been proved in numerous side by side speed tests the S9 Plus is faster in running most applications and processes even though iOS A11 Chipset produces much higher Geekbench 4 scores. It comes back to Samsung's CPU with superior RAM Managenent. With Antutu Benchmarks which are focused more on gaming applications Samsung newest devices are insanely fast. Apple dreams it could attain such superior scores.

Widely known, because a handfull of people had problems I dont call it widely known. I have been using iPhone X since release and use it often for rdp sessions and teamviewer and use it really hard and it have never overheated. My Samsung and Sony gets a lot hotter with the same use
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Jammol:
It has been tested side. And it is an issue for the A11. Changes in Apple software have made it better. It's also dependant on other factors such as data/wifi usage during the sessions. I've had it happen during some sessions, and other sessions it does not. I've not had any issues with my Note 8 but know if a few folks that have it happen.

Also, you posted that it's not widespread, do what makes that different for you Samsung and Sony devices? Are those widespread then?

Regardless, to stick to the point of this thread from my part, this is a flagship device, whatever that means. I don't even know why people even use those words anyway. Just like the word "premium."
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Jammol:
It's currently the best chip to run on an iPhone. That's about it. There probably isn't a better match of hardware and software out there, than the way Apple does it. No Android device is that matched with the software. The problem with the A chip is longevity when I comes to continuous processing. It's quick out the gate, but it starts to lag after a while.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] varcor:
"A key factor behind these results is Apple’s poor power/heat management on the A11. Data posted by Anandtech shows that the A11 can not perform at required levels when tested with multiple benchmarks. The processor throttles fast, showing Apple’s lack of attention."

So the all the technicians and electronic engineers who tear apart and test devices for a living are wrong but you're right? Ok Tim, you win.

This thread isn't about Apple V Samsung.

I have no idea why some members constantly try to compare those two brands. Different echo systems and technical management make both mobiles very competent but incomparable.

On Topic. If the OP thinks the Note 9 is not a flagship mobile do not on any account purchase it. There is a plethora of mobile phones on the market that are the same as the Note 9...oh wait, no there isn't.... The Note 9 is a specialised mobile aimed at a niche market. It has never been aimed at the mass market mobile phone owner. Its unique.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] evo4g63t:
Unfortunately (or fortunately depending on how you look at it) the Note series is in a league of its own. It's closest like competitor is the stylo 4 from LG which LG continues to treat as a mid carder phone for some reason.

With no real competition for a stylus phone like the note Samsung has a monopoly on the market and can pretty much set the price for whatever they want without much of a negative impact.

I'd like to see LG convert the v series into a note competitor in order to drop down the price of the note.

Quite frankly the price they're charging here for a Note 8 v2 is ridiculous. Especially since it'll be degraded in two years without easy replacement of the battery.
