[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kurtbvb:
I have just got a HTC Drram G1, its on rogers (American network), but its unlocked to any sim i was sold it from the uk, not sure if this helps with firmware guessing its different for us and uk versions, having a hard time sourcing anything for this phone, lots of links are dead, i am currently on android 1.5, all rooting links are dead, links to reoveries are dead too, does anyone have links to any files or could anyone upload and please?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greencartim:
I did some digging around on my old back up drive. I have found some HTC Dream ROMs. I have ICS and Gingerbread custom ROMs. I have sadly lost the custom recovery img. If there's a way to pull the custom recovery that I have on the phone, I would do that. I would hate to have these files die and in turn have a piece of history die. I will upload the files I have to Androidfilehost or other long term file hosting service and hopfully have these files live on.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] DarkFamiliarity:
Hi everyone. I decided to root my H918 from 10t by using lafsploit. At this time, my calls, LTE, and SMS were all working perfectly. After downgrading to 10p and unlocking bootloader, the device had difficulty staying connected to a single tower. it kept dropping signal often and was not able to make outgoing calls or stay connected to LTE for too long. After this I flashed LineageOS 15.1, not thinking much about it. On LineageOS, every time an outgoing call was made, it would drop the signal for about a minute. If no calls are made, LTE and SMS sort of work. I flashed 10u stock after that with Magisk and the phone has difficulty connecting to LTE or making calls/sending SMS. I have tried the following:

- Reboot

- Clean flash

- Format where you type "yes"

- APN settings

- Network mode change

- Airplane mode on/off

Somehow after a reboot (on Stock 10u zip) I'm able to make 1 or 2 calls and then it stops working. I called the carrier and they said there are no outages in my area.

I put my SIM in another TMO phone and it worked perfectly. I put their TMO sim in my phone and it had difficulties making calls. So the possibility of it being a sim issue is ruled out most probably. I have been recommended by a few people to try and flash an h918 modem but 1. Not sure if it is safe and 2. Not sure where to source it from. I have no other ideas and this is my primary phone so I'm having difficulties without a usable phone. Any suggestions would be hugely appreciated. Thank you.

Update: Tried flashing to 10p kdz from download mode but didnt solve anything.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] androiddiego:
Is the wifi also on?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Alibaba0101:
I'm having the same problem, but was running on 10j. I went back to stock and upgraded to 10u to see if it fixes the signal problems I have with this phone. Both Cell signal and GPS on this lg v20 are horrible. On using the h918 on at&t. If not, i will either need to go back to my moto x pure or maybe buy the international note 9 with the unlocked bootloader.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] DarkFamiliarity:
The Wifi is on, but I also tried with the wifi off as well as turning off wifi calling, Volte, etc.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] DarkFamiliarity:
I tried the same. Just flashed a 10p kdz to see if that would fix it, but no luck. Same issue happening on complete stock OS..
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Alibaba0101:
I replaced my sim yesterday, but that didn't make any difference. Before that i replaced the plastic bits on the top and bottom of the phone where the antennae contacts with.

I went back to 10j yesterday which was still arb0 and now upgraded to 10u which is arb1. I'll miss lineage, but i was just having too many problems with it. Not sure what at&t has on band 30, that's the only band this phone is missing. I regularly was losing signal while just driving on the freeway.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Jerry SQ:
Hello. I have the same issue on LineageOS. Been trying to fix it but no hope. But I did find a temporary solution. Let me describe the problem. I'm having a LTE sim that works just fine, then it just stop working. The problem is when you enter an arena without LTE or the LTE is too weak at that point then your cell signal is laggy and lost completely. But you can switch the Preffered Network Type in the Settings to WCDMA/GSM/CDMA and your cell signal is back. That's my solution for now. Hope It helps.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] androiddiego:
With a custom rom, you can't have wifi on with data on. Simply turning wifi off doesn't fix the problem. You would need to reboot. This has been a problem from the beginning. It works with a totally stock phone, but beyond that, no.

Here is the only way to keep data calls working properly: If you need wifi, turn on airplane mode, then turn on wifi. When you are done, turn off wifi, then turn off airplane mode to bring data back.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Alibaba0101:
Not sure the signal is any better with the new firmware on 10u, but at least my location services is behaving better and the camera actually works in stock. I did a side by side comparison of the gps signal with my moto x pure. Side by side the moto x pure got to an accuracy of 10ft with 21 satellites in view. The lg v20 locked on much slower to 8 satellites with an accuracy of 50 ft.

For comparison -

satellite 14 signal strength

moto x pure 34

lg v20 23

the cell signal may be better with fewer drops, but in some places without lte the speed and throughput is miserable.

Hi all,

Figure I'd start a little topic that hopefully isn't a dupe.

I'm just wondering how much you all paid for your devices, and where/when you bought them?

I've only had my Wizard a few days - I got it 2nd hand from a company that were upgrading all their employees phones. ~£40 (~$80) is the price I paid (xe.com if you wanna convert that into euros etc!) which I thought was a great price for such a fun bit of kit. There are a lot of scratches/dents on the case and the left softkey doesn't work but apart from that it's running perfecto!

I've upgraded the IPL/SPL to 3.08, flashed it with TNT WM6 and set up VoIP calling. I'm awaiting an SD card before I play around any further. :)

So how much did you pay for yours?

Thinking of selling this little Wizard - interested?! :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ashasaur:
Well, I just got mine 3 days ago. Got it from a Pawn Shop for a cool 20USD! The whole stipulation was that the battery didnt hold a charge, so I went to my local battery store and bought a 20USD battery and it works like a champ! The other stipulation was that it COULD NOT be unlocked to anyone other than Cingular(seeing as its a Cingular 8125).....bbbuuutttt, I can home and used the lokwiz tool and voila! Unlocked Wizard!!! So for 40USD, I dont think that I did too bad!;P
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Pwallwin:
Got mine brand new for about £80 off egay.

Got a 2GB SD card off Play.com for about £12.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] SMS92:
Cool deal!

Also to mention I got mine boxed with all the original accessories & a leather case which adds to the overall value-for-money. All in all I'm very pleased! :D

Hoping my SD card arrives tomorrow as I'm craving installing and messing about with some new apps ;)

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] curlsaloud:
Mine was free on a contract - UK T-mobile £22.50 a month with unlimited web and walk. I'm 12 months into an 18 month contract - despite unlocking it and flashing with WM6 I'm kind of tired of the phone now - it's a bit clunky and ugly compared with what's out there now. Don't think I'll get a phone with a built in keyboard again as I hardly ever use it.

Mind you I've dropped the flipping thing about 6 times this week and it's still going strong :eek::D
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] TheAlmightySam:

Paid $95 for mine off eBay almost two years ago to the day. Some guy was trying to

upgrade the radio and couldn't get it going again. The thing was brand new. After reading

on this forum for a couple of days, put it in bootloader mode, reloaded the software and

still going strong. I had thought to sell it back to the guy (they were going for about $400

at the time i think)

Paid £35 on Ebay - just got the phone (in nice condition - hardly a scratch) with a single stylus, no charger or any accessories. I have a HTC Artemis (T-Mobile MDA Compact III) as well, the charger from that works fine, so no worries.

Main problem was that the dork who sold it me, :mad:, had not unlocked/reset the phone so I could not initially get it going. A quick search led me to you guys and I quickly found the instructions on resetting it - works a treat now, have since picked up a 2GB SD cad from SVP for £7.50, so now have a cracking phone/PDA for less than £50.:)

Last year a guy I work with upgraded his phone through O2 and gave me his old hand-me-down. It was/is in stellar shape. Since then the phone has cost me in other ways such as a new battery 2850 mhz US$15.00 Ebay), headphones US$5.00 (ebay), belt clip $40 at the mall (shoulda got it from Ebay) and a stylus US$3.00 (Ebay) um all tallied about US$63.00
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] realj42:
Hi - sorry for the late reply - been too busy flashing my Wizard and Artemis phones with the latest WM 6.1 roms:cool: I was lucky-ish with that Wizard - the guy was selling 5 at once, all bare wizards with no accesories or power supplies. Just keep looking on Ebay and bid at the last minute on any bargains you see - you should get one at a good price sometime. It helps if you can bid on items ending at odd times like during the day or middle of the night, when there are fewer bidders.

Good luck :)

I paid about $700 32 months ago when it first came out, and it's been the best phone I've ever had. If it had GPS it'd be almost perfect. I keep looking to upgrade, but there just hasn't been anything good enough to replace it. I considered a Kaiser, but the video driver fiasco put a damper on that. I kinda like using it as a remote control (if it just had a little more range). Now instead of new phones having a stronger IR, they've gotten rid of it and are putting stupid stuff like tv out on the phones. And TOUCH, gawd, spare me, if I wanted an iphone I'd get one.

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] jollywhitefoot:
I've got an AT&T S9 and it's still got the February 1 security patch and says no updates are pending. AT&T's website indicates that the latest security patch they've released is July and that there was also a June update. https://www.att.com/devicehowto/tut...9?make=Samsung&model=SamsungG965U&gsi=uArWqmI

Is it possible the June update got pulled (and not removed from the AT&T website) and that for some reason the July update hasn't been released for my device yet? Can anyone shed some light on this for me? I searched and couldn't find anything regarding this.

Thanks

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] jollywhitefoot:
Thanks for the replies everyone, but I've got an update downloading now. Here's what I did...

Background and symptoms:

- I was what I believe was the original out of the box firmware (G960USQU1ARB7 - February 2018 security patch)

- When I would check for updates i would immediately get a message that no updates were available (like it wouldn't even check really)

- I tried doing a factory reset which didn't help

Resolution:

- Used FirmwareScience to find and download the next update (G960USQU1ARBI here is the direct link)

- Followed the instructions there to install the update (placed the update.zip file on SDCard, reboot to recovery, select update from zip)

- After the update, I went back into settings to see if the next update would download and it did...it's installing now.

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Nickdroid86:
Is anyone else experiencing a slight rattle when you sit the phone down or tap it? Not sure if it's the vibrating motor or something?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Benjamin_L:
Yeah I know what you mean. Same here.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Nickdroid86:
That actually makes me feel more at ease. So it's not likely defective but more likely just a larger vibrator motor or something. Which, makes sense because the vibrating on this thing is strong.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Benjamin_L:
It's funny that shaking it does not create the sound. Only laying it down on something hard.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Nickdroid86:
Yes exactly. Or if you tap on the back.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] ILA:
I feel it rattling when it vibrates which makes it feel a bit cheap but haven't noticed that tapping out would make rattle as well which it does.

Could you please confirm that it rattles a bit when it vibrates on your device as well?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Nickdroid86:
It doesn't seem to do that for me. But vibration does seem overly strong like on cheaper phones at times.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Benjamin_L:
Ex kernel manager or other kernel tools let you adjust vibration intensity.

Ok actually all percentage values feel the same so probably some driver restrictions
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] moodo:
Same with my A2. I located it at the camera or somewhere near. It is definitely not the vibration motor itself.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Nickdroid86:
Maybe from the image stabilization?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] moodo:
Don't think so, since the A2 has no OIS.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Benjamin_L:
It doesn't have ois. Edit: too slow ;)
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Nickdroid86:
Oh ok, just EIS. Well who knows what it could be. Can't be a defective unit if it's the same for all of us.

Can confirm it happens for me also
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Mr.Nice.ba:
Same problem here. I am assuming that volume buttons are producing that rattle noise. If you take your phone in the hand and shake nothing happens, but when you tap just under camera lenses you can hear the rattle :D , volume buttons are only near and not fixed, so...

Not the buttons. Most likely optics in the camera that are movable for autofocus. Most cameras now seem to have this

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] nemkocic:
ok guys i think i have a clue... between two cameras there is a flash, which is like inserted module.. if i just slightly press a finger over it, the sound will disappear. i tested this with tapping near the camera, it's the easiest way... could you also try it and tell me if it's the same for you. because if it's just a bit loose flash module it's not a big deal i suppose....
