Just wondering ... is there a trend becoming visible here ? :confused:

New phone, less reception ?

Cheers,

Andreas
[Touch Cruise General] acocq:
It may be sensible to add comments as to how much improved or how much worse the receiption is ...

As I already stated, I basically am no longer able to reliably make calls on my mobile phone because the TC gets such bad reception :(

How about your experience ? Are you getting "bad" sound (noise, crackling etc.) or drop outs ?

Or is the quality of the connection OK, but you are not getting a signal to actually make calls ?

Cheers,

Andreas

By your signature I see that you've upgraded to a Bepe rom and upgraded your radio. Please check this thread:

Reception Difficulties

You've updated your Radio, now you're screwed :(
[Touch Cruise General] kogac001:
Hi:

I'm using the 1.64.08.21 radio with Bepe .067 Premium rom and the system is doing ok with the exception that because I do not have 3G yet in my area, I have a hard time connecting to AT&T and it take a long time. When I travel to a 3G area, the phone smokes.
[Touch Cruise General] acocq:
Darn ... sorry ... forgot to update my signature :rolleyes:

I currently have a TC with the original ROMs.

But from what I see so far, nearly 45% report a reception that is worse than with their old phones. Not good, is it ?

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Little-white:
Hi,

I just root my s8, but find out I'm not able to use secure folder anymore.

Is there any way that I can use it.

Or do I have to remove the root to use secure folder again.

Many thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] spawnlives:
Generally NO once your phone has been modified you will trip your Knox. Once Knox is tripped you can not use things like secure folder,Shealth, Samsung pay. There is no fix for a tripped knox

Bastards man, why can't they be like they used to with the S5 and below...

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] rfilipoiu:
Hi,

If you had something, like the pin or password list, in the secure folder, you did the backup before rooting and now restore it, what happens with that list? Is it restored or not? If yes, where?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] lecrock:
First, thinking about it, Knox is a bonus. Without Knox you still have access to every function that other Android also have. You can use Google Fit to replace Shealth, Google Pay to Samsung Pay, and Island (by Oasis Feng) or Parallel Space to Secure Folder. Obviously all of these alternatives don't perfectly replace Knox, but there is a reason to root devices lose access to Knox, it's for security. Knox is a subsystem isolated from the rest of the system to store highly confidential information. it's not about you bank data or your nudes, it's to prevent that industrial secrets you could have in your Secure Folder will not be stolen by a malware disguised as a game. There is also a hardware implementation called ARM TrustZone that stores encrypt keys and biometrical data and do security related computing. Remember now that a Root device can be deeply compromised. Normally all we do are tweaks to turn UI better, but you can also change firmware, modify system as you like, etc. To guarantee that your device are safe to store whatever your cautious boss want, Knox could verify every single file of your OS, firmware and beyond, or only verify if a bit have changed from 0x0 to 0x1. That's why they can't be like S5 and below

I'm not here exactly to defend Samsung, only trying to explain why it's works that way (and I'm not an Samsung Employee nor what to spend 3 hours explaining how it's hardware implemented, so what I'm saying is based on my own research)

Hi all,

I have the issue, that I need to reconnect my XZ2 to my BMW 1series (F20) really often, because it does not autoconnect when the ignition is turned on.

So I need to pair the XZ2 again and again with my car.

Also my BT-Sony Headset is affected.

It seems, that my Phone drops sporadically all paired bluetooth devices.

I noticed that I can bypass this problem with a daily reboot of my Phone. But this shouldnt be the Solution.

Any Ideas? Can someone confirm a Bluetooth problem?

Try using new flasher to reinstall the latest firmware.

But delete the "userdata" file, it would remove your userdata.

I have an odd Bluetooth issue too, lately it's been disconnecting the ear buds while changing streaming apps (i.e. from Tidal to Spotify or Podcast) or when moving between networks, either between access points or from WiFi to cellular data. Just started happening this week. Didn't change anything that I can remember. It's almost behaving like there is a power saving feature enabled which is trying to save on Bluetooth use. Sometimes it'll reconnect on its own and sometimes I have to toggle BT. It's weird.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] babbtong:
Hello, recently I damaged the screen on my s8 where the screen wouldn't turn on and no input would work, so I figured it was the LCD and digitizer that needed replacing. I've replaced those parts, and the touch works now but the screen never turns on. I turn the phone on and see the blue notification light that turns on when the Samsung boot logo comes up, but can't see the boot logo itself. I can unlock the phone because I've memorized the pattern/placement and I can hear the volume change sounds when I adjust the volume.

I've tried cleaning the PCB contacts, holding the volume down + power button, holding volume up + power + bixby, and I've changed the battery and verified it works. Anybody know what could be the cause? Faulty screen? The company I bought it from is asking me to send it back to verify if the screen is faulty, by I'd rather not go through that trouble if the problem is with my motherboard or something. Although, because everything else works, it does lead me to believe the screen itself is bad?
[Treble-Enabled Device Questions and Answers] xzyk:
Hi all, I've asked this question here ( https://xdaforums.com/9-lite/help/how-update-project-treble-gsi-image-t3851002 ) also but am hoping this forum is more specific to my needs. I'll repeat the question here perhaps i'll have better luck with an answer !

there's a lot about installing gsi images on various phones that support project treble but i cannot find anything about how you update them. I installed OmniRom beta3, via fastboot, on my H9L and 3 days later they put out an update. The rom works fine and i set it up to my preference with magisk and it even shows up as Play certified, so all is good. However, with the update I prefer not to go through the whole magisk uninstall/install again. Anyone here knows how you would update an existing gsi images ? If I use fastboot to load the new update wouldn't that erase everything again, as stated on the openkirin.net installation instructions here ( https://openkirin.net/user_guide/openkirin-rom-installation-instructions/ ) ? or could i just fastboot the new beta3.1 over beta3 and just not do a factory reset as recommended ?

If a factory reset is essential everytime then this basically means we have to rebuild everything everytime there is an update ! I hope not.

Weird everyone writes about installation and no one thinks about updates ?

Just do the same thing you did to flash the GSI in fastboot.

You don't need to do any wipes, but it's a good idea to wipe cache from the stock recovery after updating.

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] Polarkreis:
Hello everyone.

I have really tried to find an answer to my question but I failed. If anyone can help me or just give me a hint where to look I will be very thankful.

My problem is that some time ago I have decided to try and install LineageOS on my G960F/DS. Everything went fine, but after few days I wanted to go back to a stock firmware.

I have downloaded a stock firmware, reflashed with Odin, did all the wipes and stuff and my phone works fine (then I realized that S9 has this shi*ty eFuse, but let's forget it now).

Still I am not able to activate my Google Pay. Everytime I try to activate my bank card I get a message

I know there is a thong called Magisk Hide, but as far as I know it is not working.

Is there any way to get Google Pay to work?

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] elpy909:
Hi there,

New comer on the Poco, I just unlocked it, and look forward to flash a AOSP ROM.

The flashing procedure is not new for me, but when I was used to it, the encryption was not a forced option.

Then today, I'm quite confuse about this process. Here is what I understand so far :

1. Android force every device to encrypt the /data partition

2. this process take place at the forst boot of the current ROM

So my question is : If I flash a LineageOS today, then the system will encrypt my /data partition. So if I want to install another ROPM (let's say Pixel Experience), do I need to format my /data ? Is there any way to preserve this partition, even if I know the encryption password ?

PS : If you have a document about the implementation of the encryption on Android, I will be really please, since I love to understand what's going on my device (and I'm not affraid on crypto stuff ;))
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] uremytoy:

Do you have any link of this file ? --- EDIT --- Found it here https://xdaforums.com/poco-f1/how-to/xiaomi-poco-f1-unlock-bootloader-custom-t3839405

Another question on this zip : Why do we need this zip file ? Once encrypted the system check the integrity of every partition (/boot /recovery etc.) ? Wich mean, every time you flash a custom ROM, recovery, it change the integrity and stop working properly (bootloop) ?

Thanks :)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] WingXBlade:
It's a very weird issue, when I was flashing purely MIUI roms, I needed to flash that zip file every ROM hop.

The last time when I was using MIUI before switching to AOSP, I had it disable force encryption and didn't flash the zip file before flashing the AOSP ROM (meaning after I formatted data).

Now, I don't have to flash the zip file when hopping between AOSP ROMs since I never encounter anything weird during the first boot process.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] CosmicDan:
The ZIP modifies some text in the fstab on /vendor to tell it that encryption is not forced but optional. This only modifies vendor. Every AOSP ROM I saw so far does not have a vendor at all - it just assumes you already have a good one.

So you only need to flash it when flashing a new Vendor (e.g. Stock ROM includes Vendor). You should be able to keep encryptionand storage across AOSP ROMs without needing to Format.

But it doesn't hurt to just flash it every time you flash a ROM, just to be safe.
