[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Lochalsh:
Hello,

I have been digging through the forums and google trying to find a solid answer but getting a bit of misinformation so, I have a couple questions.

I would like to get the Note 9 but am very hesitant to go with a carrier or US version, given they are locked down. I have not owned a phone, since starting on android with the G2, that didn't have root and some sort of mod support.

With that said I am considering the n9600 for tmobile and hoping someone can confirm whether it has band 66 or not.

Also, I keep reading that aggregation is an issue, slowing lte speeds vs carrier specific phones. I have read a couple forums saying there is a possible solution but they seem to kind of dead end with many people saying they don't notice a difference.

And finally, for Tmobile, has anyone had better luck with the Exynos version vs the n9600 w/ snapdragon? Is there a difference as far as connectivity or the ability to force specific firmware/software?

Thanks.

Screen Recording with System Audio in EMUI 8.2​

One of my favorite features of EMUI has always been the built-in screen recorder. With EMUI 8.2 they have improved this feature by letting you choose the audio input while you are recording. You can use your phone's microphone or you can select the system audio. Use system audio for recording games, streams, video chats, and anything else where you'd need the original audio source.

To activate screen recording, hold power + vol up. Then you will be asked to select your audio input. There is no limit to the amount of time that you can record, so just make sure you have enough space. I made a 1:20:00 recording and it ended up being 2.6GB.

Your recordings will save as a 590x1280p resolution .mp4 file. The notch at the top is blacked out for a better recording btw.

No screen record feature in honor play

Hi people, I ve been searching for how to activate screen record on my honor play that runs emui 8.2X. I realised there is no such feature on my phone. However I have seen some videos on YouTube with tutorials on the topic and the honor play phones used for the tutorials have this feature. What could be wrong?
[Honor Play Guides, News, & Discussion] calinorg:
On emui 9 it is available when you press power+volume up, not really sure about 8.2
[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] ice711:
New to the pixel 2 so I apologize in advance! So I'm digging the night mode option, except it always reverts to "always off". I want it on automatic depending on day/night. I've done some googling and came across, if you have dark mode on in messaging, it forces the night mode option to be always on. I've turned off dark mode in all the apps the have the option, messaging and YouTube. Now it always reverts back to always off. Anyone have any insight as how to go about keeping it on the automatic setting?

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] V4LKyR:
Dear all,

This is my first Xiaomi phone and my first experience with MIUI. I love MIUI so far so good, I think it's a very fast ROM and has awesome features, such as full screen feature where there is no navigation buttons at the bottom of screen and you just swipe from the edges of screen.

However,

I see that many people don't like MIUI and most of the kernels don't support MIUI. Why is this? Is vanilla android ROMs, such as Pixel Experience, AOSIP, RR, etc better than MIUI? How? Do they have full screen feature like the one on MIUI? I've never used any ROM other than MIUI so far, so I don't know. And I would want to know if there are any advantages before trying them out blindly.

Also, could you please advise which kernels can be used with MIUI? Serious answers please.

Regards,
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] tungthanh500:
I really prefer Pixel Experience like ROM. You know, Xiaomi add their ads in their system software, you will not like that. Xiaomi do not control ads contents, it's a third party company who decides the content of ads. So, your kid may see sexual ads while using your phone.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] SSfalcon:
Miui is good but now a days xiamoi is becoming greedy you know adds too many and bugs .that's all nothing else to hate

How is the battery life and performance on custom roms like Pixel Experience etc? I regularly game on my device so battery life is important.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] tungthanh500:
I am not playing game. I usually use my phone for news, facebook, reading novels. I played game several days ago, it may last around 5 hours for a light game. Normally, without game, it can last 8 hours on screeen.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] Bib_x:
With MIUI 10 my battery life goes bad... Before i had about 3 days, now i only get 2 days... I want to try another rom now. Maybe pixel experince rom.

Can someone help me a little bit here, too?

My questions:

1.)

Is battery life nearly the same like with miui - will i get my 3 days (with light use) back?

2.)

Is full gesture control (no bottom back,menu,homescreen buttons) working in pixel experience rom too?

3.)

Is face unlock working in pixel experiece rom too? Is it the same like in miui or is this another face unlock app from google? Which one is better/faster?

4.)

Is camera working in pixel experince rom out of the box? Is camera as good as miui camera? Is all working in pixel camera?

5.)

Is there any big bug in a non-miui rom? Some missing (big) features?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] fadgry:
Oh man you should move to custom rom if you play games. In MIUI I can't play AOV 60 fps, can't run PUBG on HDR setting, it was a pain since our phone's specification actually can do it. You can see other phone with exactly same spec can run it right (Asus Max Pro M1).

I don't expect to get those features when changing to custom ROM since I just wanted to upgrade to Android Pie, but when I run the games unexpectedly those features enabled by default. So satisfying ?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] Antyhaker:
It's simple. If MIUI is enough for you, just use it. If you wanna MIUI features, like gestures or dual apps, just use MIUI. It's simple :)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] leedawg:
Hey all ive been searching for awhile on this and have not found anybody else complaining about this problem which I am sort of surprised by seeing as it has been happening to me for some time now.

Here is what is going on. I am on the verizon network and I am tethering my laptop to my phone through the USB using ICS running DCD's latest 3.0.1 ktichen .

Pretty much what happens is the phone connects fine to the itnerent and it passes the data connection to the computer then after about 5 to 30 minutes the connection will just disconnect on the phone and I will have to unplug the phone and then hit connect and plug it back into the laptop and again off it goes and works fine again for another variable amount of time usually 5 to 15 minutes.

There dosent seem to be alot of rhyme or reason to when it disconnects it just does it kinda randomly at different time intervals when im tethered. I have noticed its more likley to disconnect if There is a heavier load on the data connection say you are downloading a 20 meg file or something. It will almost inevidably drop connection halfway through the download sometime. its really weird and kinda annoying constantly reconnecting it.

I have tired WMWIFI router it does the same thing disconnects after a certain amount of time no real set amount of time sometimes five minutes others more like 15 or 30 minutes.

My 6700 would stay connected forever pretty much unless it lost signal or got a phone call. This phone hasent been real stable in teathering through any of the roms ive tried.

Does anybody else experience this or is it just me? i have a hard time believing its just me but maybe seeing as nobody else has really brought this issue up.

Possibly its just people on verizon I really dont know it seems as though the majority of people on here are on sprint so perhaps their system works a bit differently then verizons. Any way thought id share my frustrations and see if anybody had a way to fix this problem or if its just an inherent problem with the phone or radio or what.

Look forward to hearing if anybody else has any experience with this

Lee

OH and If you read this DCD your roms are kick ass keep up the good work I have enjoyed running every version you have put out. Much appreciated
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] NotLutzik:
Had same problem with 3.27 radio. Got 3.35 now and no any kind of disconnects!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] ebexp2000:
I had more problems with Verizon's Access Manager dial-in connection than I do with ICS on my phone. Access Manager would disconnect for almost any reason. Sometimes I could keep a connection for a long period of time, but I never really taxed the connection. If I fired up my Cisco VPN client, it would disconnect from the internet each and every time (within a minute of establishing a VPN connection. Yes, I tried IPSEC over TCP, UDP, and SSL).

Now, using ICS and the USB connection (radio 3.35 and DCD 3.0.1), it works MUCH better. I will get a disconnect here or there, as most people do, but I can hammer on the connection (about a 100KB/sec download, VPN, etc), and it doesn't disconnect for any specific reason. My VPN client also works now.

I never tried radio 3.27. I waited until there was an "official" radio release for the 6800, and therefore am using 3.35. You could always try going back to the original VZW stuff to see if it is a hardware problem. If you're not on radio 3.35, I would update to that first.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] azclown:
I've downloaded over 100 MB without a disconnection, actually since I went to 3.35 radio, I'm not sure I've had it disconnect at all unless I lost signal.....Leedawg check your PM's.....
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] leedawg:
Thanks for all the replies it appears as though not many of you experience the problem with radio 3.35, I am running radio 3.35 seems just like 3.27 so perhaps I will flash back to the stock vzw rom and go from there and see if I still have the problem.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] nickles96:
i am a VZW user as well, with the latest Sprint 3.35 radio.

i also am booted from my tethered connection periodically. even when just idling and no transfer, i can only keep a connection for about 5 mins max..

but i don't need to soft reset or anything, i just need to restart the ICS connection ..

Weird thing for me is, I tether BT and it drops me.. tether USB, and it doesn't............
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] anvesh583:
It seems Xiaomi started pushing advertisements all over miui like file explorer, cleaner, security, browser, downloads , music , themes and much more. Are they enabled on our beloved device too ? Did anyone started experiencing them?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ruvy:
Unfortunately, these ads are present on POCO F1 as well. Xiaomi believes the revenue generated by these ads allow them to keep the phones affordable so it's not like they will stop if users complain. These ads or recommendations (as Xioami likes to call them) are enabled by default on all Xioami phones except Mi A1 & Mi A2 (Android One phones). However, Xiaomi has provided the option to disable these ads. Only problem is that these ads cannot be turned off by simply toggling a setting but we have to go the settings menu of almost every MIUI app and then turn them off.

Here is a detailed guide to turn off ads on Xiaomi devices
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] anvesh583:
Here is another similar guide to disable those frustrating ads i found on mi forum.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] SH3H1:
Indeed it is present in our device as well...i think it is more annoying in MiUi10...i am on latest beta and sometimes have popup ads out of nowhere even using non MiUi apps like Youtube or Pubg .. every 4-5 times i unlock chrome leads me to a new ad tab...One more reason for me to switch ROM...MiUi9 was only showing in Mi apps,so was not big concern for me

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] uremytoy:
Root the phone install adaway and you will have no ads. Or just simply flash Xiaomi.eu

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] anvesh583:
I am confused between Adaway and Energized.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] aFoxWhoIsNice:
If you're rooted, you can use Energized in AdAway simply by adding the host file of your choice to it. If you're unrooted, use Blokada which also has the option to use Energized. Both of these applications are FOSS.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] mogamycool:
I unlocked the device and uninstalled the bloatwares from it. you can use only few miui apps like file manager for updates and themes manager to personalize the device.

I always use Adguard so I don't know anything about ads
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Perfectdevil:
It does actually fix the issue... Last i checked the issue was ads in miui no?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ruvy:
Installing a custom ROM solves the ads issue alright. You can say it is equivalent to replacing the whole engine in a car because the one that came with the car had an issue which manufacturer don't really want to resolve but can be fixed by using some alternate means.

Of course we cannot imagine everyone going for custom ROMs just to get rid of the ads.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Perfectdevil:
Lol... You sound like a car guy\gal... Let's just say it's not it's a car engine since that it's SOC of the device... Let's just say the car's paint job or dashboard...it's nit that hard to change it tho... But I get ur point
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] anvesh583:
IR Camera unlock is the only feature that's making me stick to MIUI . The moment this feature gets ported on custom roms , I am gonna switch away from MIUI
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Perfectdevil:
Me too... That stopped me at first... But i backed up my miui in twrp to just try aosp but man... The features and the system responsiveness are smooth and fluid AF plus more battery life and ****load of other stuff... That made the IR camera a balanced trade off... Try it and ull see
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] thesoupthief:
Same here (re ir face unlock)

I think I must be in a minority though, in that I never see any ads through miui. I opted out of ads when I first set up the phone, which I assume did the trick.

I don't use miui aps much, but when I do, I don't notice any ad cruft. I use Blokada too, though under miui this seems to let a few ads through to other apps, which never happened with my last phone.

I understood all the preinstalled stuff could be deleted. Unfortunately I've not been able to get rid of the miui gallery or file manager.

Really hope the face unlock gets ported...

I'm new to all this, so please forgive me if what I'm saying does not make sense. I don't totally know what I'm talking about.

I have a 2013 Mini Cooper and as such the options are pretty limited. There looks looks to be a PX3 MTCE_HLA Android 7 version available or an Android 8 PX5 MTCE_KGL unit. Obviously I'd prefer the faster speed of the PX5 based system but I've read a few negative comments about the KGL systems. I can't really find anything on the HLA systems (maybe I'm just bad at search?).

In terms of quality, is there a preference between HLA and KGL?

In terms of support here, custom ROMS, etc, is there a reason to prefer one over the other?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] sanderbaks:
Hi, I have an HLA in my BMW.. I am sofar not happy with it. it is a PX3 system though.

The Problem with HLA is that noone seems to know much about. Like you said yourself: Cant find anything about it. So should you want to doe stuff with it, there is probably no help :(

Good luck!

They're all based on HCT, false dichotomy? I'd say go for the PX5, once read through the forums, you'll find mostly PX5, but read on.

Ordered the Anccer, will post how it fits when it arrives which will probably be in 10 days because I'm in Europe. Gigantic phone doesn't need a thick case to make it more gigantic.
[Honor Play Accessories] scottyd035ntknow:
Just FYI this is incorrect. I finally got mine today and it came with the clear case. Blue international 4GB version from USA Amazon.

That said, the clear case is just flush with the camera lens which=bad.

keep it off whatever surface the phone is put down on.

The Anncer case I got is about the thinnest case I have EVER had for a phone, its like... maybe 2 sheets of paper thin plastic and no edge to protect the screen. Not really good for anything except protecting the metal body of the phone from scuffs and putting a lip around the camera lens.
[Honor Play Accessories] scottyd035ntknow:
Well I found a winner for the Play and its not one of these 3 but it is on Amazon.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07HFT3ZX5/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01__o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Fits and looks just like if Spigen made it. Really nice. Just a touch of a riased lip above the camera lens, lip around the screen so you can put it face down. Fits really well but not so tight its almost impossible to get on and off like some TPU cases. Buttons all still work and fingerprint reader is not an issue. Back is a nice texture so its not super slippery. I fell like this will protect the phone whereas with the Anccer "case" I basically had to treat the phone like I would if there was no case on it.

Golden Sand Thermoplastic Polyurethane Shockproof Armor case

was looking for sturdy cover for my phone since my last phone fell from 3 feet height and broke the screen. This cover is neither flexible nor hard. Just the right combination of both. Slim, can easily go in your jeans pocket. It has around 1 mm protection around screen and small bump on back for camera. Edges has small cross from inside which is nothing but extra cushioning for corners. I would definitely recommend it for honor play.
