[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] John Latter:
Er, I just know this is an incredibly naive and ill-informed comment to make but under "Developer options" on my brand new Nokia 8 it has the following switch:

"OEM unlocking" beneath which it says, "Allow the bootloader to be unlocked"

I haven't a clue what it means or what it does (not yet, anyway) but are you guys talking about else?

NB I'm running Android 8.1.0 with the 1st of August security patch installed.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ironman38102:
That button is useless. It doesnt do anything as when you put the command in adb to unlock while being in bootloader it doesnt do anything.

---------- Post added at 11:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:01 PM ----------

Infact since you installed August patch, you cant unlock bootloader using unofficial method.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] John Latter:
Thanks for the explanation, ironman.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] error748:
That switch that you have mentioned has to be in unlock state in order for fastboot unlocking procedure to be working properly.

As far as I remember in the unofficial unlocking bootloaders in all articles I have seen, turning the OEM UNLOCK is mentioned to be in ON state.

I refer you to this website
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] John Latter:
Thanks, error. I note the "Workaround for devices upgraded to August 2018 security release" doesn't include the Nokia 8 but I'm not looking to unlock my boot loader just yet (I'm primarily interested in what improvements can be made to the camera app and whether or not Nokia are going to provide a solution themselves.)
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] kosmatyj:
As I understood an SP only changes the method of unlocking, some thing like another unlock key generation algorythm, right? I mean that unlocking will still available but another way. If so then we can hope to do unlock. My boot is unlocked and I don`t care about it very much, besides I disabled the updates, but I look into the future and it is not excluded that I will upgrade to newer FW.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium Questions & Answers] gaijin1%:
Was wondering if this display shows native 4K all the time or has user selectable option for it?

Was super pissed with my XZ Premium being forced to render at 1080p in all but a few apps.

4K is only useful on this size screen for VR, so won't make the same mistake again.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium Questions & Answers] ariy11:
Forced 1080p but you could make the xz 4k all the time through adb look it up
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium Questions & Answers] gaijin1%:
Thanks for the reply. You answered my question.

Actually, the adb method was only emulated 4K, not native. Still selected the resources from xxhdpi folders and blew them up. Doesn't even select the xxxhdpi higher resolution images for 2K. For the best I guess. then it would scale it down to 1080p before enlarging to 4K adding extra blur.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium Questions & Answers] UA-BOD:
What command in adb can force this screen resolution?
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium Questions & Answers] DJFliX:
For the XZ Premium apparently the following would have worked:

In an ADB shell:

wm size 2160×3840

wm density 820

In my case the wb size command gives me:

Error: bad size 2160×3840

Probably we need another resolution
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium Questions & Answers] michaelstk:
After change it to 4K, the screenshot have an issue ( not capturing the whole screen as 4k but the screen at a corner with other space in black. How do you guys solve this issue?
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium Questions & Answers] thanasis12.:
wm size 2160×3840

wm density 820

In my case the wb size command gives me:

Error: bad size 2160×3840

Try....2160x3840

Not ....2160*3840
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium Questions & Answers] blinksilver:
I just placed my xz2p into native 4k mode with the dpi set at 640/xxxhdpi. I really like the increase in real estate and the integer scaling makes everything look crisp.

That said, I've currently got two hiccups (not already mentioned, I also have the screenshoting issue hereto described) related to dpi change:

(1) The monochrome viewfinder is behaving strangely, but still serviceable (wrong aspect ratio & tap to focus doesn't move the focus indicator)

(2) The rotation animation is really broken and is either firing twice or has some other timing related issue.

#1 I can live with, but #2 is a real drag. I've turned the transition animations off in the dev setting, but it still looks really weird when i rotate.

Any ideas? It seems like sony has made some additional changes to deal with the 4k/1080p pop in and out. Simply setting the WM mode doesn't appear to manipulate those hidden settings. Perhaps one of the on phone apps needs to be disabled?

Edit: https://xdaforums.com/xz-premium/themes/panel-120hz-quest-t3852052/post78603665#post78603665

...according to the xzp forums, its not actually 4k? how can one verify this?

Edit2: Saying things that will have me eating crow in no time!

I'm at least somewhat convinced the xzp peps are wrong. I have been swapping the phone from 1080p@320 dpi to 4k@640 dpi. If they are correct either both would look exactly the same or the 4k version would look worse (because of the double scaling). It clearly looks better. A good test to try; make the icons and text as large as you can in nova launcher and switch between the two. If you look at the top and bottom of the dark ring inside the camera icon you'll see clear aliasing at 1080p and smooth curves at 4k. Just a reminder anything that is not a perfect multiple of 160 will always cause scaling on android. same with dpi values over 640.

I've got a pretty decent canon camera(xc10) with 10x optical zoom, once I find the charger for it I'm going to try to get some clean photos of the screen in the two mode and post 100% crops here.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium Questions & Answers] EMJI79:
Can you do that? Also a comparison of Instagram, or VSCO high quality photos?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] grmcrkrs:
If you preordered your Note 9 between 8/10 and 8/23, you can choose between AKG noise cancelling headphones or the Fortnite Galaxy skin with 15,000 V-bucks for free (or both for $99).

Samsung says the easiest way to redeem you promo (if it didn't ship with the device) is to download "Shop Samsung" app and login. Then go to your "my inbox" tab under the hamburger menu at the top left. If your doing this from your new Note 9, it asks for some permissions, then checks your device specs and device ID's, then Samsung will verify your preorder status and send you a confirmation email.

I say all this to say that I ordered the AKG headphones for free, and that Samsung sent me an email saying they would be sent out around September 3, 2018.

Did anyone already get their promo stuff? Are the headphones awesome? How about the shipping dates for everybody else?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] swazedahustla:
Mine came with the phone and I was never asked if i wanted them. I assume all sprint orders have the earphones.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] chipworkz:
Those are just the normal headphones that come with the phone, NOT the wireless headphones that Samsung has the Promo running for.

I did it through the Shop Samsung app and it was approved in about 10 minutes. Also shipping the week of the 3rd.

A note on the AKG headphones that come with the phone, they are nothing to write home about. I have the B&O headphones that I got with the LG V30 promo and it is a night an day difference. The B&O are WAY better sounding and a lot more bass.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] swazedahustla:
Oh yea? Let me go ahead and sign up then lol. Good thing you said something.,

Boom.....shipping week of Sept 3rd.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] LilWeech:
Thanks dude I was wondering about this
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] GallardosEggrollShop:
Mine just came in today and the headphones are pretty sweet. If you ever tried the Bose QC25s I'd say the AKG N60 is a notch below that in terms of noise cancelation but it makes up for it in audio quality compared to the Bose.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] lazarus0000:
I ordered mine through Amazon. Unlocked version.

Anyone know if the offer applies to my situation? The phone is supposed to arrive today (24AUG18)and I really didn't give a hoot about either the headphones or the game bucks - I ordered via Amazon because they threw in the new wireless charger and a dex unit for free with the pre-order. But what the hey - if I can get the headphones for free too, I'll let my son have them or something.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Birdsfan:
The free headphones or Fortnite offer will apply. I also ordered through the Amazon website, they have the Blue US unlocked 512 phone in stock where Samsung doesn't? There should be a mailer in the packaging or they will send an email with a coupon code to redeem the offer.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] 2015Ducatimulti:
just did mine with the shop samsung app, and will ship the week of the 10th of Sept.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] daniel4653:
I'm curious about the Vbucks. What if you use the phone and get the Vbucks on your Epic account then return the phone? Will they charge your card the $150 which is the estimated value? [emoji848]
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] co.ag.2005:
use the shop samsung app to redeem the pre-order goodies when your Note 9 comes in.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Birdsfan:
I do recall seeing something like they will charge you for the freebie if you return the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] daniel4653:
That would suck. Either way I tried to redeem my promotion which is the Vbucks with skin through the Samsung app it says my device is not eligible. Even though I'm doing it form my note 9 that I pre-ordered on August 9th.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Oyeve:
The headphones are utter garbage.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] clone1008:
The headphones are utterly FREE!

---------- Post added at 01:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:31 PM ----------

I ordered the headphones through the Samsung Shop app when I recieved the phone on Tuesday 8/21. I got the approval notice instantly with a ship date of 9/1. Then on 8/22 I received a tracking number for a FedEx shipment and they just arrived 15 minutes ago 8/24. Pretty damn fast!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] chipworkz:
What makes you say that? I don't have them yet but I have watched several reviews on them and they say they are excellent noise cancelling headphones when used for that purpose. As in flying and traveling where there is a lot of background noise. When not using them for NC purposes they are a more mid level unit with decent sound.

The AKG headphones that come with the phone in the box are just your run of the meal headphones that don't sound very good at all compared to a good set.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
Has anyone confirmed that Samsung will honor the promo for phones shipping after 9/13?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Semantics:
No they aren't. They are fantastic for air travel. I'm sure anything that doesn't appeal to your super "audiophile" ears is utter garbage, though.

---------- Post added at 02:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:49 AM ----------

Samsung shipped the headphones with the phone from Samsung.com but I'm not sure how it's going to work through the app. Despite them not being audiophile quality, they are excellent noise cancelling headphones.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
I don't own any noise canceling OR BT headphones, so I'm actually excited about them. It would be really disappointing if I missed out despite pre-ordering...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Semantics:
I've gone through the samsung promotion app for the S7E, S8 and Note 8 and always received the promo items. Just submit the receipt and you should be good.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
I hope so. It's their fault, after all.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] kingdruid:
What about those of us that pre ordered through Sams club and picked it up today/tomorrow, which is a day or two after the date. Our receipt shows the date after the preorder, but we did actually pre order it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] clone1008:
You will be fine if you use the Samsung Shop app. Your IMEI is in the system as a pre order because Sam's Club got your phone from Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] PiArc:
My pre-order kept getting cancelled. Two calls and a few emails later, I ended up just purchasing the device at a local BestBuy yeaterday. I'm moderately disappointed about not having received the headphones I could have had, but things have more or less worked out.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] angka8:
in singapore, the promo is you get 512gb at 128gb price. no any other add on
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] brianlp:
The instructions say you have to order the headphones on the Shop Samsung App, and you have to allow the app to access your contacts. If I deny this permission will I still be able to order them? Or can I install the app before I transfer my contacts, register for the headphones, then delete the app before transferring my contacts? I don't want them accessing my contacts for any reason.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] grmcrkrs:
Sure, do it before your contacts. They don't need your friends list, they need your number, imie and mac address etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] clone1008:
I just received my Note 9 and have been playing around with things. After doing a little research and piecing together a couple of different posts, I can confirm that I have Sprint Hotspot working. The steps are as follows:

1. Download Shortcut Master Lite from the Play Store.

2. Open Dialer

3. Dial ##brand# (#27263#)

4. Say yes/accept everything - phone reboots

5. Open Shortcut Master Lite and select the Menu (three vertical dots in the upper right).

6. Select App Explorer, and then All Apps

7. Navigate (scroll down) to com.test.LTEfunctionality and select.

8. Select the first item labled "LTEFunctionalityTest" and select launch.

9. Scroll down to LTE APN Setting and select.

10. Select APN2 LTE/EHRPD internet

11. Scroll down to APN type and select.

12. Add "DUN" to the setting (it should read "default,mms,DUN") without quotations.

13. Select Menu and save your settings

14. Reboot

Congratulations, your device now has Sprint Native Hotspot!

Are you using the Sprint branded one or the unlocked. I tried activating my unlocked one on Sprint they had to put in a ticket.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] nickelghandi:
I did not need the ##brand# to get mine working. Just edited using Shortcut Master lite.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] clone1008:
Yeah sometimes it works without doing it but it was easier to write the steps having everyone do it. Really the only time ##brand# is needed is if your option to put DUN in is greyed out. Also remember any time a PRL or network update happens, you have to redo the steps.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Androidwarrior:
Doing a PRL update doesn't remove the dun. It's the profile update that removes it. Performed a PRL update 3 times to make sure.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Chris2433:
Didnt work for me. Anything else you tried that might of made it worked for you?

edit: wth? So earlier I was messing with another method through adb shell and I was afraid maybe I had messed something up so I wanted to undo it all. The guide said to use this commands

settings put global tether_dun_required 1

settings put global tether_dun_apn null

then I removed the DUN from apn setting on shortcut master and now the hotspot works? makes no sense but I'll take it lol

Edit 2: Apparently my plan comes with 10gb of hotspot which is why it was working after removing all custom settings. I just went past the 10gb and it has now slowed down to 2g speeds (text from sprint)

If you believe this worked for you, check your sprint account usage because I'm pretty sure all new sprint unlimited plans come with 10gb hotspot so you might be using that up thinking this worked. That's what happened to me lol
