[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] fayeharuna:
I'm using swift installer now
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] UnicornHub:
I am as well. I was just trying to see if I can use swift dark in substratum with it to make sure everything is super themed lol.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] vishnu8058:
I use swift for Samsung, system mods, yoru and status bar mods. These substratum themes cover most of my applications and provide some status bar tweaks as well. I used swift installer for a while and switched back to substratum.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] UnicornHub:
Did u ever use swift installer and substratum at the same time
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] rawdikrik:
THey are both sort of the same, but Swift is basically set up for the Galaxy S series. I would stick to it, it works well, and it is hard to mess things up. Substratum is slightly more complicated and harder to fix things if something goes wrong.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] vishnu8058:
Yes, used system mods from substratum and swift installer together.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] edirisinghe30:
I always have a dbrand skin applied therefore I usually go for a transparent case to show it off.

I currently have the coveron and ringke fusion transparent cases. The coveron is quite slippery and the ringke alert slider cutout is too small.

Recommendations of transparent cases which offers decent protection and grip is appreciated :)
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] gitzz:
Don't buy ringke even if they correct the slider cutout! The back of ringke case is damn scratchy and gets so bad in just 10 days.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] edirisinghe30:
Mine is all scratched up too. Check out supcase, they released one which claims to have a scratch resistant back.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] enerGy:
Ive tried 3 clear or transparent cases and all have had their own seperate issues. If I'm honest the best is the default one that came with it but unfortunately its the smoked affect. If they did a totally clear one it would be awesome
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] edirisinghe30:
The orzly flexi case is a good option. Almost like the stock case and is transparent but just like the default case, it doesn't offer drop protection.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] enerGy:
Yea it sucks that there isn't any good ones *that I have found yet anyway* I have a dbrand skin and want it to show it off but also protected
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] gitzz:
I have a block of carbon fibre skin that I purchased for $3 (2ftx1ft), i had applied that carbon fibre skin on my ringke case back, note my case looks like the carbon fibre case from oneplus except the oneplus logo on it, i will show it to u guys soon.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] gitzz:
Ringke with carbon-fibre skin applied on the back
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] edirisinghe30:
Looks good man :svetius:

Rhinoshield crash guard bumper case is available for pre order and i think they will start the shipping process next week, i think you should try it
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] edirisinghe30:
It's already on it's way

Ordered a few days ago, hopefully it doesn't have any issues :)
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] ntrobbo123:
The red one came with a completely clear case. I really like it. May be able to get one in eBay or the likes.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] enerGy:
Already ordered lol
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] ahmadalsaady:
please share your experience when you get it, I want to buy one
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] Fever09:
I got this two transparent case from aliexpress:

*this one looks better and the cutout from the back is better

[OnePlus 6 Accessories] ayamgoreng:
Is ringke case fingerprint magnet ?
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] gitzz:
Yes, more than the original back of OP6 and if u clean it it even get scratched easily.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] ayamgoreng:
Thanks for the info, I was about to get ringke since the cheap supcase clone that I got is really fingerprint magnet.

Maybe I should just get few $1-$2 clear case and replace them every month :p
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] edirisinghe30:
Supcase is a far better choice and will last you a long time. It's more scratch resistant than the orzly fusion and the ringke and is overall a nice case.
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] 80s Baby:
Anyone know of a transparent grey or Ash case that's similar to the one that comes along with the phone?
[OnePlus 6 Accessories] jnyce87:
I ordered and received my crashguard(black) and I just applied my red carbon fiber gadgetshieldz to the back. Just waiting for my tempered glass screen protector to come. I'm excited this is my first time running a setup like this (crashguard and skin).

[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] AmazerG:
It's a Sprint phone but the fast boot mode seems weird.
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] beachfl:
Nope... oem_locked

It will say flashing_unlocked after you unlock the bootloader.
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] AmazerG:
Thanks man, is it possible to unlock it?
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] beachfl:
That's the SPerry xt1766? You can unlock the bootloader. I might be wrong, but you should be able to do it right thru the Motorola website:

https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-b

Of course.... you lose all your data when you unlock your bootloader, so back it up :)
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] AmazerG:
I got this error.
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] beachfl:
Right.

You have to do what it says to do. Enable Oem Unlock in Developer Options.

To make Developer Options appear, go to Settings... About Phone... and tap on the Build Number repeatedly (7 times) until Developer Options appears, and enable it.

Then go to that Developer Options, and you'll see the 5th one down is OEM Unlocking. Enable it.

Ta da.

Now go and do the fastboot oem unlock thing.
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] AmazerG:
Thanks a lot Man.

Thanks a lot man, would you please be specific about the “oem unlock thing”?
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] beachfl:
The same thing you did above when you got the error. Just do it again after you've enabled Developer Options and OEM Unlock
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] AmazerG:

Anyone can help in this regard?

[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom General] SancheSZ:
Good day!

I have a problen using multisim on the gadget. I bought a Silver Card with Sim-Emu 6.01s firmware. The first problem was to config it. The menu switchedto the start page just before asking the imsi and ki. Finally I managed to config it in my mobile phone. And it works there perfectly.

In the Atom it successfully registeres in the network, i can make calls, sms, etc. But when I have an incoming call the device unsweres it automatically - so thet I can speak with a caling person. When a person hangs up, Atom reports about missed call, just so as if didn't answer it :)

Any suggestions \ experience using this card?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Revolter:
so, I have my phone on Sprint

checked in the settings, no update available

popped out Sprint SIM, inserted AT&T rebooted twice, checked update, voila PIE update OTA offered

after little bit of waiting and few clicks - all done, my Sprint PH1 Essential is now on Android 9 PIE

all seems to be running

recap:

*Sprint PH1, previously unlocked by method described here:

(https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3724135)

* inserted AT&T SIM

* reboot 2x (I just wanted to), got it provisioned and working

* checked, downloaded and installed OTA update A9/Pie

* phone upgraded without erasing anything, rebooted once

* while still on AT&T checked LTE and TXT, all works

* power off, swap SIM to Sprint

* power on, no problem, phone recognized Sprint and provisioned right away

* WiFi OFF, Sprint voice, data TXT all works

*WiFi back ON

awesome! got maybe one of first Sprint Android PIE!

side effect - screen gained deeper clarity and contrast, whoa! nice.

thank you Essential Team!
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Wildfire13!:
Android Pie on Sprint Essential phone

So I have an unlocked (bought on Amazon) Essential phone but because I am on Sprint it will not upgrade to Pie. I do not have access to another sim card from an alternate carrier so not sure how else I can upgrade.

Any ideas are much appreciated. Thanks
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Hiylow:
Well I received my Essential a few days ago from Amazon. I never have yet inserted my sim card because I am not using it until my protectors (screen etc.) come. I updated to 8.1 over wifi and got a notice to upgrade to pie. I was downloading Pie and this is without any carrier sim attached. I am wondering if you try to do a factory default without sim inserted would that give you the ability to check for updates and install 9 pie without sim. Then once updated and a reset insert sim . Like you said you did buy it unlocked from amazon and not sprint.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] landaile:
have you gotten Wifi calling to work with Sprint on a device with Pie installed? I'm upgraded but am missing the "Update Emergency Address" option.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] ciscoholic:
Sprint version of Essential phone using the same method but Verizon SIM and only rebooted once. Android 9 OTA showed up after checking update. Thanks OP.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Revolter:
I am not using WiFi calling. No idea if this works
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] landaile:
I reverted back to 8.1 July and have it back. I'm guessin that's why no Sprint update to Pie.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] BakedTator:
I'm on spring and running pie...everything works straight out of the box for me...no issues setting up wifi calling, rcs works...I didn't get the ota but I always use fastboot anyway...just turn off wifi calling and try to reactivate it
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] ecstaticnoodle:
Flashing via the computer works too if you don't have extra sims from different companies.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] firegoblin:
Sideload the OTA file through recovery. No need to unlock bootloader.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] droidstyle:
you don't want to upgrade to 9.0 yet...wait for an update. 8.1 is better!!
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] jmkarnai01:
Personal opinion. I feel that 9.0 is solid and is equal to 8.1. Not better or worse.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] avd:
If that's the case, latest ROM has latest security fixes.

I upgraded to pie yesterday on my Essential phone and now my touchscreen doesn't work. My lock screen will show up and tell me to put my code in, but I can't do anything that actually requires me to use my finger on the screen.

Do a factory reset. Go to recovery and reset it.

To get to the menu press and hold power then press volume up. Almost positive that gets you into the menu. Then make your selection from there by volume up/down and power to select
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] talon_dgnr8:
I just got the OTA from Sprint last night. I have been checking at least once a day since release. So far so good. Haven't had any issues that I can see. I'll have to check wifi calling and other things people have mentioned.

Edit:. Seems my wifi calling was on by default...just haven't used the phone as you know...a phone lol.

Cons- No notch support, Pandora app control on Bluetooth devices currently does not work, and the UI is complete iPhone esk...do not care for the recents to app drawer layout either.

Pros- device runs a tad smoother and touch sensitivity is better.

All-in-all, I would agree but I am back on 8.1 and hopefully the next update will add notch support and Pandora BT app control will be fixed.

Handson and unboxing leaked:

Pixel 3 xl aka panda final design revealed :

The biggest surprise, however, is the inclusion of bundled earphones. Judging by the video , these are USB-C buds (no, the headphone jack isn’t coming back) that closely resemble Google’s premium wireless*Pixel Buds. Here’s hoping they deliver on audio quality and aren’t just a cheap pair of disposable earphones that get immediately resigned to the bin. Its running android 9.0 pie out of box.

the phone will be powered by an octa-core Qualcomm processor (4 x 1.77GHz and 4 x 2.8GHz), which is almost certainly the*Snapdragon 845 SoC, backed by 4GB of RAM and an Adreno 630 GPU. The display is also listed as having a 1,440 x 2,960 resolution with a 494 ppi rating.

Worst part:

1)comes with ugly notch

2)only gesture control is available no softkey or anything

3)same back with with single camera and fingerprint sensor as previous pixel devices no innovativeness

4)big chin at bottom

5)only 4 gb RAM still in 2018

6)no headphone jack( carry that usb C connector too in pocket)

7)big like panda ?? can't handle

8)costly (but price not revealed)

This Pixel 2 xl maybe my last Google phone, with the un inspired Pixel 3, I will be waiting for Samsung galaxy s10 as my next replacement phone.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] SinisterXReaper:
I'm honestly 50/50 in the Pixel 3 XL. I don't really mind the notch, the software is amazing, stock Android. I'm super happy with my 2 XL. However, what puts me off is the 4GB RAM. I believe with the Snapdragon 845, having 4BG RAM won't let it use it's full potential (please correct me if I'm wrong) There's also the fact that 5G is around the corner and with the chip finally made for smartphones to utilize 5G, do I want to Shell out $1k+ right now? I switched to TMobile and I can't utilize their 600Mhz range since the 2XL does not have band 71, which is another thing to consider. I've considered buying a Samsung, but with their bloat infested software and terrible customer service, let alone the slow updates, I don't think I want to. But, I digress. Either way, it's a lot for me to take into consideration. For all I know, I only want it because it's the latest and greatest ?*♂️

I was about to say Pixel 3 XL was worth buying if you had a OG Pixel XL or any other non-Google phone. But after reading my own comment, I changed my mind.

Don't get me wrong, I love my P2XL. But I don't think P3XL will be a good value. P3XL specs are marginally better than P2XL. When P3XL is released, P2XL prices will drop. Will P3XL be worth the extra money? Only if you must have the latest and greatest. Otherwise, save some money and get P2XL instead.

As for me I just bought my 2 XL (coming from an OG pixel xl) a week ago knowing that the 3XL is just around the corner, but I didn't feel it would be significant upgrade and wouldn't justify the expected ridiculous price Google will be asking for it

I just hope they don't keep a couple of SW features exclusive to the Pixel 3 like they did when they launched the pixel 2 to those poor soles who had the OG Pixel

Google does not learn their lesson. Spends over a billion dollars to acquire new engineers for the phone, and none of them can think of the simplest way to do wireless charging without a glass or plastic back. And they don't get a good designer for the phone? C'mon!!!

Anyway, all the reasons you listed are fine with me... but one is what makes me, and many other people, just drop any chances of getting this phone. That is definitely the most stupid decision, which guarantees the worst investment by any company ever! Getting stupid engineers for over a billion dollars that actually don't know CRAP!

- A notch is fine, just not that shape and so deep into the screen. Look at LGQ and OP6. Beautiful notches, if you gotta have a notch. But okay, I can take that.

- It's okay to have a chin... for stereo speakers... but THAT BIG!!!??? Wish it was smaller... but that is still okay with me.

- Why a glass back!?!?!? Just charge the freaking phone through the front screen. I am not using the phone when charging wirelessly anyway. Now pixel will also become a fragile phone :( Still, I can take that too...

- Soft keys? Stupid engineers or whoever takes care of the software... There's still that pill. WHY???? GET RID OF IT GOOGLE!!! Give me screen space!!! Or let the pill be on top of the content when you touch the screen. What a wast of over one full row! But okay... I can live with it.

- Single camera.... fine with me... as long as it is as good or better than the current pixel 2 camera... and who knows... maybe it will come with optical zoom! (I wish!)

- I actually like the fingerprint spot, would never change it. My phone already does great with the fingerprint and face detection. Kudos for keeping that Google!

- Love the size of the phone. Perfect for my hands. If this is too big for you, you can always have the smaller version.

- Cost... all good phones are expensive... but as long as it is good like the Pixel, I am fine paying for it.

- Now, this is what I cannot accept... I have been a fan of nexus phones, since nexus 5, and have purchased every single phone, every year. Now... 4GB MEMORY!?!? If that does not change when the phone is out, I'm out. I can take all these new **** from google, but 4GB memory? No... I'm going to another brand or OS this time. Maybe OP6 or whatever. That decision is simply stupid.
