[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] mattman83:
That and the fact it came unlocked sounds fishy. You can miflash a rom for sure. You'll want to find out if it's truly a global model as well because if its a China model you will brick the phone if you relock the bootloader with a global rom.

M.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] hero.li:
thank you for the replied.

seem its china model because the phone was unlocked...so how could i flash the rom if i want a global stable rom like the real global version of mix 2s ??? TWRP is the last method???
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] mattman83:
You can use miflash to flash global stable ROMs, they will work just fine, just DO NOT AT ALL attempt to relock the bootloader unless you are back on China stable.

Also watch miflash... Down the bottom right you have the flash, clean and flash, flash and lock etc. Absolutely make sure it is not on a lock option. It's easy to do there by accident if you don't check.

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] pi4a7a:
Immediately try to flash official global stable !!!!!!

Like it was said DO NOT lock bootloader until you do get on official rom

You phone came with 3rd party FAKE miui (yes thats the name of this rom) it may contain malware and all kind of bullsh*t

My first Mi 5 came with it, I studied it so trust me. Flash global stable!!

You can flash twrp via fastboot and then flash miui eu weekly, that a way to get rid of this nasty fake crap!!!
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] SubZeroNexii:
Dude don't tell him to lock the bootloader.

Chinese versions of the phone only work on global with the bootloader unlocked, If he locks it the phone won't boot and he won't have any way of installing the chinese rom because the mi account isn't bound. So he'll end up with a hardbrick that could only be fixed with a special mi account and EDL mode.

Tl;Dr DO NOT LOCK THE BOOTLOADER YOUR PHONE WILL BRICK
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] hero.li:
Thank you for the useful information, i will remember it.

Im now in FAKE miui rom, so i just need download the global stable rom and flash over this fake rom through Miflashtool? Will it relock the bootloader? Im still not sure if my phone bootloader is unlocked or not. But when i turned on, i see unlocked msg on the screen.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] pi4a7a:
I wrote "DO NOT LOCK" can you read?

And how are you sure he is using the china version? Cause it came unlocked ?? Every version of the phone can come unlocked if a 3rd party was doing stuff on it...

When you flashing there are clean and lock, DO NOT CHOOSE lock

Tell us the whats on the back of the phone, the model ?

I paid full price for Verizon note9 from Samsung dot com, to my surprise I pop in freedompop simcard which is GSM and use att network and i'm getting 4G LTE
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Guyinlaca:
Verizon apparently hasn't switched to locking their phones yet. That is good news.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] princeasi:
Because it was purchased thru Samsung direct, although it's a carrier branded phone, is the reason why it's unlocked.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] KOLIOSIS:
Aren't all VZW LTE Phones SIM unlocked,regardless of where you buy it,financed.or,paid in full?

https://www.verizon.com/about/consumer-safety/device-unlocking-policy
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] princeasi:
Not sure, could be so. I do know for certain, well according to what Samsung told me previously, that Samsung direct currently sell their phones unlocked whether branded or unbranded.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] KOLIOSIS:
Yeah,there's no reason for any phone purchased direct from Samsung,or any mfg for that matter,to have a SIM Lock.

The carriers are totally out of the loop on the transaction,less having their bloatware pre-installed......
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] KidJoe:
Starting with the HTC Thunderbolt, Verizon branded LTE smart phones have been SIM Unlocked "out of the box" ... I'm not aware of any recent Verizon branded LTE smart phones that are SIM locked. My verizon branded S6, Note 5, S6 Edge+, S7, S8, Note 8, S9 and Note 9 are all SIM unlocked out of the box.

That being said, they may still be restricted on what non-Verizon LTE bands they support (i.e. their software supports all LTE bands Verizon uses, but don't necessarily support all LTE bands T-Mobile and ATT use too.).. And they may not support other carrier features (like VoLTE on ATT, etc) when running the Verizon branded software.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] princeasi:
Yes agreed
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] entropism:
Yeah, that's not true. Verizon phones are sold unlocked due to their deal with the US government back when LTE was starting out. They've since decided to cancel that policy, but haven't put that in effect yet.

Sprint, AT&T and T-Mobile phones sold through Samsung are all sold carrier locked.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] princeasi:
State exactly what I error'd in saying? you may not have read the OP or my statements carefully.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] entropism:
You stated that carrier branded phones purchased through Samsung are unlocked. That's not correct. Only Verizon ones are.

You said it was unlocked because it was purchased from Samsung. Even if we were ONLY discussing Verizon phones, that's incorrect. ALL Verizon phones are sold unlocked due to their deal with the government.

I read the question, and the response. Not sure what to tell you.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Gareee:
How can I tell if our verizon phones are unlocked? Best buy lowered the trade in value of our old phone saying it was only for unlocked phones. If all verizon phones are unlocked, they owe us a refund! ;)

EDIT: I just googled and checked, and our verizon note 9 phones are NOT unlocked.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] TechOut:
Verizon doesn't lock LTE phones
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] KidJoe:
There might be some terminology confusion here. The device Samsung sells as UNLOCKED ships SIM Unlocked so you can put any carrier SIM in it, will support all the maximum cellular radio bands, and has no carrier bloat or customization on it (aka unbranded).

While LTE phones from Verizon are SIM unlocked out of the box, they often support only the cellular bands that Verizon uses or feels the need to include, and will have carrier bloat on them. The other carrier variants like ATT or SPRINT sell their devices as SIM LOCKED, with cellular bands they want to support, and their bloat. While you do have the option of getting these phones SIM unlocked it wont impact the cellular bands supported by the carrier's software.

In other words, technically while the Verizon phones are SIM Unlocked (this includes the Note 9), and you can stick the SIM in from another carrier... their software restricts what cellular bands the phone is compatible, and it has the Verizon bloat on it. And therefore they are not the same as the UNLOCKED variant that Samsung sells.

So in my case, since the Verizon Note 9 is SIM unlocked out of the box, I can put my ATT SIM into it and it will get LTE coverage and work (see my screen shot)... As you can see the Verizon software also notifies me that its a non-Verizon sim. The Verizon branded software is missing support for certain GSM/UMTS/LTE bands that ATT has, so if I go to an area where ATT uses a particular band which is absent from the Verizon phone, my phone can't use it, and therefore wont perform as well as a phone that does support all the bands ATT uses.

To understand what I mean... take a look at this page -> https://www.techwalls.com/samsung-galaxy-s9-sm-g960-g965-model-number-differences/ for the Galaxy S9/S9+ which lists bands the different models support. You'll see there are some bands listed on the ATT variant that are not listed for the Verizon variant and vice versa. And compare those with the "Snapdragon 845	Unlocked US" listing which has support for many more bands than either the Verizon or ATT models... (sorry I couldn't find a similar chart for the Note 9)

So if I use my ATT SIM in my Verizon GS8/Note8/GS9/Note9, there is the real potential I wont see the same wireless performance that I would using an ATT variant or "Unlocked" (aka Unbranded) variant of that same phone.

This is why an Unlocked (aka unbranded) phone will have a better trade in or resell value.

That being said, through a series of steps, I could flash the unbranded software to my Verizon phone and convert it to the "Unlocked" (aka unbranded) variant and gain access to those bands (I did so with my Verizon GS8, converting it to the XAA or Unlocked variant). This also likely voids the warranty. Unfortunately if Best Buy, Samsung, a carrier, etc. looks up the IMEI of the phone (for activation, warranty status, etc) they would see its the Verizon model not the unlocked.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] heyazzo:
They sell them unlocked, right, but I think some have put nag toast notifications about non Verizon SIM cards.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miltos211:
Hallo dear XDA first time poster, excuse me if this is the wrong thread to ask about this but here it is. I have a Samsung galaxy J3 the 2016 variant stuck with an FAP lock without a custom recovery installed, is there any way to firstly recover my data and secondly but not as important to "fix" the phone without reinstalling a stock rom? The phone can enter into download/odin mode and USB debugging was enabled prior to the lock, I've tryed using ADB while the phone is in download mode but ADB d

Doesn't list my phone. Any idea ? Thanks for your time.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pisonja:
You are stuck because of the FRP lock? Right?

I never heard about FAP lock, only if you need to fap before you do the unlock :)

I can remove you frp lock. Just send me your teamViewer id and password and download the flexihub and install it and give me the correct model number, written on the back of the phone.
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] muhhh351:
Hi,

if I hold my HTC10 with my right Hand (90% of the time), my indexfinger is exactly at the ON/OFF Button.

Click me, I'll show you.

This is a problem with the HTC U12+, isn't it? :confused:
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] Tierlord:
The phone is bigger than the 10, so your finger will probably not have the same holding position as it has now.

Even if it would, there is no problem just "touching" the button, as it is still required to press it to invoke an action.
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] muhhh351:
Thank you for your answer.

I think I have to test it in a shop.

Unfortunately it is not on stock in any shop near me :rolleyes:
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] Tierlord:
I also deperately searched shops for the U12+, but noone had it. So I ordered it "blindly" and I have no regrets.

I would be happy to let you hold my phone to test it, but Dresden is about 6 hours away :)
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] schmeggy929:
I think you mean your left hand as the power and volume are on the right. Holding the phone in your right hand your palm is over the power button

[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] muhhh351:
Hi,

I watched the video of Jerry Rig Everything.

Click me, I'll show you the world.

He shows that the display is fixed at the frame and very complicated to replace. This could be a huge problem if you shatter your display. And because I don't use cases or covers (see below), this is going to be a really bad expierence.

What do you think?

Why I don't use cases?

I like the design of the phones and the feeling of glass or metall. If I put it in a rubber-material case I really dont want to touch my phone anymore. And in the case of the U12+ it's necessary to touch and squeeze the frame... so the case would affect this function, too.

Lot of bugs

Here the issues I had while testing it:

- Problem with the default launcher because of some missing fonts (not a big deal since I use nova launcher on every rom)

- The system doesn't handle the switch between headphones and speakers. If I unplug my headphone, the system thinks it stills there and If I reboot the system without the phones pluged, the system will only use the speakers.

- The buld in theme manager is buggy. If I modify the default colors, some apps act wierd. I'll not be able to turn on dark mode on twitter and twitch. And the status bar color while using the apps don't switch to the right color.

I've tested on my Asus Zenfone 5 [T00F]

I really liked the ROM, but those bugs are really annoying. Gonna go back to RRemix.
