[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] dedq:
Hello, recently I became aware of Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus problem with recovery where I could not mount data. Now I managed to fix it but whenever I enter the recovery I get my settings restored to default! I have heard that the problem can be solved by modifying permissions but I do not know which file I should focus on. I am using International variant. What could be the possible solution?

Thanks in advance!
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Cassiar:
Hey guys,

Googe play services keeps stopping

android.process.media keeps stopping

bluetooth keeps stopping

at the first start (google register)

I tried: 2 different roms: mcaosp + pixel, newest gapps (nano), flashed data, cache, dalvik + system

Do you have any solutions/ tipps? I want to try pie :)

Greetings
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] bturnni:
I had this problem too, tried all variants of gapps, bitgapps. All variants of twrp, all pie ROMs and same error. You can try and see that if you create a second user in the phone, suddenly all works perfectly.

tl;dr:Just try crdroid ROM, the one worked for me on the owner user
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] RebornCheiko:
Flash the ROM first without gapps then boot normally.Turn off phone,go to TWRP and then flash GAPPS.

Had this issue many times and its quite annoying.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Cassiar:
Thanks for the answers. I tried this 2 times ;(

It just dont work with your tipps. I will go back to oreo until I get news about this
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Cassiar:
no fix yet ;/

Flashed all except usb otg + sd card, installed firmware 9.6.2 and tried syberia + arrow rom. (Followed the install tutorials)

Android PIE dont like me ;(

EDIT: Got AOSP Extended to work but now it searches for updates since 10 minutes. (I have good wlan <.<)
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] AstroDigital:
Yes I read reviews.

I owned a Oneplus One years ago and I gave up waiting for an upgrade and bought something else.

I here that OnePlus is better at upgrading today than they were four years ago. Is this true ?

Like I said I read and I know OnePlus 6 has available an Oxygen Beta (Android Pie) but it has not been officially released ? Is true if I buy a device I may need to wait several months until they Officially release Android Pie.

Now I know you will say just run the Beta it is stable but here is the make of break question I need Android Pay and Wear OS. My experience tells me if I flash a Beta required apps like Android Pay and Wear OS may stop working.

If I buy today I think the safe thing will be to wait for Oxygen OS (Android Pie) to be released. Customer ROMs or Beta OS will break for sure Android Pay.

Other than hating to wait for official releases this device looks fine.

No wireless charging sucks but I can live without it.

The Pixel camera maybe better but I read the OnePlus 6 camera is not bad

The OnePlus 6T will be out in November but ..... THERE IS ALWAYS A NEW DEVICE around the corner. Wait for the OnePlus 6T..... oh but it a few months this will be released.

This device gives better value for the dollar.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] floridaman:
Android pay is not working in Beta, you should read the OP forum in the beta thread to see all the things being said.

The 6T rumor is that it will come with Pie installed but since it isn't out yet nobody knows if it will really be installed out from the gate.

Personally, I think Oxygen OS is a mess and from what I see on the threads for Pie, they're just patching it yet again and putting a new UI on it over starting from scratch. All they keep doing is carrying over bugs from previous versions and then trying to re-patch them again for either the new device model and/or new Android system. Considering treble is now installed on both the 5 and 6, IMO they should have started fresh and should have been working on coding an entirely new OS 2 years ago.

If I were you, I would wait until Pie is released in the fall and see how it goes and what the complaints are before buying anything.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Jeik:
Official Pie has been released, you can already download the firmware and flash it.

As for updates and kernel source upload speed, the OP6 gets both the fastest among all devices I had.

As for taking pics, use the gcam port for great picture quality and the oos cam for 4k@60Hz recording.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] dmainas:
The Official build for Android pie has been released today which is nice as it took only about 1.5 months after Google released it themselves.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] AstroDigital:
Thanks I jumped on a sale, and ordered one.

I am not even sure at this point I care about the Pixel, it may have a better camera but I am sure ordering the One Plus 6 I saved hundreds of dollars.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] theaxis01:
The OP 6T is set to be released in the next couple months. Unless you're in need of a headphone jack, I'd wait to get the latest version.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] efinityy:
... That's not how android works .. even less since treble... You don't simply "patch" your Android version up to date, especially when it's a major revision that is changed. Most oftenly they start from scratch with some cherry picks. And rebuild blobs whenever necessary... files come from AOSP in it's normal form, then every time android releases a new version, this has to be merged with the current existing release yes, but that means that every difference from x that y has changes into x (x being the updated file, any of em, Y Being the old, already installed one)... Bringing something on /system over from one of the earlier oos, to a newer oos, would break alot. I mean.. we can't even run ob3 custom kernels on GM pie... Because changes... Having something stick around doesn't mean it hasn't been touched, porting is another thing, and there is also maybe a chance that it's the same group of devs handling this as it was back then. It's still oneplus. Also. Oos isnt nearly as bad as you make it sound.. Oos is by far the best fork of Android I've seen launched as an OEM specific android experience, and I've seen alot of phones. Simply due to its close resemblance of the pure experience, with it's small addins for simplicity, performance, and ease of use. The UI is Google's own new material guideline. Not oneplus'. And there was 3 pie betas wherein other Companies reach up to 18-20 betas... Are we owning the same device? :P
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] floridaman:
I didn't say they were patching Android, I said they were patching their OS. Yes, I know they are 2 different things and I know things are working differently since treble. They can fully keep taking their Oxygen OS and throwing it over the latest version of Android and patch it to make it work with the new code, which is exactly what they've been doing. Yes, they get a guideline, that doesn't mean they are stuck doing only that and making no improvements/changes. There are literally hundreds of options they can code for, but don't.

I'm sorry, but it's not only simple, it's downright beyond basic even to what Google turns on and codes for features. Spare me the dribble of "pure android" please, it's a ridiculous mantra. I've not put the beta's on my phone but have been reading the forum and I have not yet received the stable update that has been just pushed out. But I already see some of the complaints coming in and no I'm not talking about the nonsensical postings.

If you think that OP is doing a great job on their OS, then you and I clearly have different standards. I'm glad you love it so much, to each his own in that regard.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] efinityy:
To each their own indeed. And it's not a ridiculous mantra.just as countless many others, I do prefer to be able to switch over countless amounts of phone but still have the same familiar, debloated and resource friendly UI. Having to learning all the different "UX"s gets pretty dull, as soon as ie Samsung gets settled with one, they change design language. And that, for me, is a deal breaker, I don't feel like having to relearn the same basics over and over, and where I usually have to install another AOSP based ROM on ie my Xperia, HTC or Samsung. Whilst the OnePlus just has the familiarity and non-rubbish feel to it that AOSP has. But don't get me wrong, as you said, to each their own, and if it wasn't for people like you that don't want the stock feel, we wouldn't have custom kernels and/or ROMs. And I've ran all the betas except ob3 and currently run the stable... And I've yet to run into any app not loading, crashing, or features not working as intended. But I would recommend not jumping on the bandwagon as I regret doing so, until there are some more data and user reviews of the stable branch. And I'm not trusting anyone doing a forum post not being previously recognized or a proper reviewer. The stable build is solid, but it's still early to tell.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] fBx:
Hi, got a s9 plus the other day and don't want to root it, so no Adaway for me. On my s8 I used dns66 and was fine with it, but as it seems all DNS based blockers bug out on the s9 as in they randomly kill data connections completely when switching between wifi and mobile data. Tried blokada, same thing.

I'm not super fine with Adhell / sabs either since it requires me to resign the packs, install everything new and get new knox keys every three months.

It's not a lot of work, but annoying still.

Is there any fix to the DNS blocking not working? Any other way to block? Or should I go to Adhell 3?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] truckerdewd:
Blokada
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] fBx:
Please read my post.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] Shaglok:
What issues are you having with Blockada? You still see ads in Chrome only? Because you need to go to Chrome://flags, search "dns" and disable all the options found.

I don't have issues with this + Blockada + adguard dns servers.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] fBx:
I have exactly these issues as reported here.

https://github.com/julian-klode/dns66/issues/258

It's for dns66, but applies to any DNS based blocker. It's the same with blockada, I tried it. Samsung based software problem
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] COMI80:
I am using block this! , works ok.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] fBx:
This is probably the last blocker I'd use if I had a choice between blockada, dns66 and block this, since it has absolutely no options to configure it whatsoever or add hosts files, but indeed - this one seems to work where dns66 and blockada don't. I switched a bit between wifi and mobile and the connection didn't crash.

Using it in combination with Adhell 3 at the moment, since I set that up anyway today. But will try if block this works okay on its own once my Knox license runs out and I'd have to set up Adhell again.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] oildale:
Disconnect Pro seems to be working great so far.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] fBx:
Edit,

Nah block this only worked for a few hours. Same problem afterwards. All VPN based blockers do this. The vpn66 issue on github suggests this is s9 plus only. Maybe I should check the s9 plus subforum
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] truckerdewd:
I used to use Block This but it hasn't been updated in over a year. I started using Blokada and at first it seemed like it blocked too much but once I got the blacklist and whitelists figured out it has worked great. Plus when it was updated to 3 and then subsequent updates fixed the issues.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] COMI80:
Better to do like this. Block this is working ok for days in the row.

For the other question, what to update, the blocking it's DNS based, not application. Only when the DNS server (actually lists) will not be updated anymore, then there will be problems.

But I am still searching for other solutions, as privacy issues can appear, not sure if it's the case for block this.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] fBx:
To be clear, the VPN blocking worked perfectly fine on my Galaxy S8. This seems to be a specific issue with the S9, maybe only plus, caused by the phone's firmware.

I found my mistake with Adhell (forgot to block port 53 for Chrome) and now everything is blocked fine. And no annoying VPN notification in the status bar all the time. Only issue is I'll have to update it every three months, but ok.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] sensboston:
I'm using AdGuard and pretty happy with it: no ads seen at all.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] downbringer:
I've been using Adguard too and it works incredibly well for blocking ads in nearly every app. The only concern I have with AdGuard is battery drain, however, I'm uncertain if that's related to AdGuard or a Samsung issue. I haven't had time to investigate it thoroughly yet.
[Huawei P Smart Themes, Apps, and Mods] callmeWhiskers:
Install "Ainur JamesDSP v1.7" Magisk module and choose the HQ 64bit driver

Install "Audio Modification Library v.1.8.1" Magisk module

Reboot

Configure JamesDSP app

Confirmed working (speakers & headphones (can't test bluetooth)) on my FIG-LX1 (L31) - EMUI 8.0.0.148(C432) - Magisk v17.1

Edit: If you don't want ringtones/notification-sounds to be processed, switch DSP registration from global to conventional. (3dot menu - top right, screenshot added)

Huge thanks to natanrosenfeld (he made a YT video, explaining a fix for previous version (now fixed with v1.7)) - and especially the JamesDSP dev team!
[Huawei P Smart Themes, Apps, and Mods] redultra82:
Great news I seen it on .android-hilfe.de myself

Messing around and cant seem to get it right, either too loud or doesnt work

Viper4android was much easier to setup, using Huawei DTS.irs or srs_2_1.irs then not much else and worked great
[Huawei P Smart Themes, Apps, and Mods] callmeWhiskers:
Have you tried using the same impulse response files with JamesDSP?

Copy the .irs (or .wav, .flac) to /storage/emulated/0/JamesDSP/Convolver and enable Convolver in JamesDSP.

Works great here.

Greetings from "androphil" ;)
[Huawei P Smart Themes, Apps, and Mods] redultra82:
I did thanks

Can you send screenshot of what you have, not sure on other settings
[Huawei P Smart Themes, Apps, and Mods] callmeWhiskers:
Even if we'd share the exact same setup (e.g. settings/IR xy sound great with my Shure SE425 in-ear headphones, but

not

so great with my AKG Q701) and preference of music, it would still be incredibly subjective and mainly based on taste. Certified sound-engineers would probably disagree, I guess :)

My

suggestion

is: leave every (other) option off, download a pack of different IRs (e.g. https://xdaforums.com/zenfone2/general/collection-convolver-samples-389-t3140299) and try each one out. If you found one you like, (slightly) tune it with the EQ. At least that's my "non-pro" approach.
[Huawei P Smart Themes, Apps, and Mods] redultra82:
Mostly all I want is to make the phone louder, well the phone speaker, on Bluetooth speakers etc it's fairly OK

Next issue is echo sound on ringtone and notification

I'll try IRS out and maybe someday have Viper4android
[Huawei P Smart Themes, Apps, and Mods] callmeWhiskers:
It's a system-wide audio-mod, so yes, if you have e.g. Virtual Room Effect turned on or use a noticably "reverberating" impulse response file, you'll experience echo on ringtones/notification-sounds too.

I've managed to make the speakers

slightly

louder by choosing the highest IR Volume Level (30dB), but I think the device's speaker volume level/overall sound-quality is just

physically

limited. They are not the "best" speakers after all.
[Huawei P Smart Themes, Apps, and Mods] redultra82:
I noticed the room effect and turned it off, but just using Irs or some of them and seemed to be an echo,

Speaker is good enough, it is only a phone after all, there are small bluetooth speakers now that have great volume to help
[Huawei P Smart Themes, Apps, and Mods] callmeWhiskers:
A nice guy from the Telegram channel pointed out, that you can avoid processing system sounds (ringtones/notification) by switching DSP registration mode from global to conventional (screenshot added to OP).
[Huawei P Smart Themes, Apps, and Mods] Horayken:
YEEEES!!!! This mod is also working on Huawei P20Pro with EMUI8.1.. I just follow the same steps above. Thanks a lot man!
[Huawei P Smart Themes, Apps, and Mods] jason13v8:
Hi do you know if I can change mixer path values without root and using adb on pc? , I'm trying to raise volume of WhatsApp calls, calls and maybe a bit of loud speaker volume but I'm trying to avoid root etc. Thanks any advice would be appreciated or a link to tutorials. I'm on psmart. Thanks again
[Huawei P Smart Themes, Apps, and Mods] callmeWhiskers:
Sorry - I'm not an expert, so don't take my word for it - but I

don't think

that's possible, since all these files are stored in locations, where (non root) users don't have write permissions. Even with a rooted and/or custom recovery device, I don't think it's possible to alter app-specific volumes by just changing mixer_paths.xml values.
[Huawei P Smart Themes, Apps, and Mods] jason13v8:
Sorry I know I mentioned whats app but really I just mean overall volume. With my moto g5 I was able to edit mixer path values which led to louder everything. But that was only with root as I'm new to adb. Thanks for your response
[Huawei P Smart Themes, Apps, and Mods] callmeWhiskers:
In case your bootloader is

unlocked

, iirc you could theoretically fastboot flash TWRP - and use TWRP's "privileged" terminal (e.g. (mount /system), adb pull/push and edit the file(s)), and then (re)flash stock recovery again - without actually rooting the device.

Again, I'm not an expert (also didn't try it myself) and can't guarantee above mentioned procedure works, despite my inner-Sherlock-Holmes tells me, your bootloader is actually

not

unlocked.
[Huawei P Smart Themes, Apps, and Mods] jason13v8:
Yeah still locked dude, tried DC unlocker but they refunded as I'm on latest security patch and admitted there is nothing they can do right now.

I keep getting a notification for this since the last update. If I poke the notification it doesn't take me anywhere and the notification goes away for a couple of days. Anyone else seeing this and know of a fix?

I'm not sure I need or want a Huawei ID anyway so is it possible to delete / disable it or is it worth having?
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] user4001:
I never made a Huawei ID either, have no need for it and as far as I can see it just gives Huawei permission to mine your data.

Just need to deal with that notification popping up every now and then. Don't know if it's possible to stop notification but it's no biggie for me.
