[LG V35 Questions & Answers] jotade:
I found it myself just in case. I used this version V350EAW10i_00_OPEN_SCA_DS_OP_0118.kdz and after that I entered this “2945#*350# and the unlock SIM option came up
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] ninja chris:
Hey, did this actually unlock your phone? I have an AT&T V350AWM and it's locked. I would be super stoked if there was a way to unlock it.
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] tiguy99:
Yes.

My first V35 was an ATT model which i unlocked by flashingthe Google Fi firmware and doing the code method.

Used it on T-Mobile and everything worked including VOLTE and Wi-Fi calling.
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] ninja chris:
Thanks for the reply. I chickened out and returned it and I'm now ordering a V30+. So frustrating that LG tie these amazing phones up in DRM.
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] tiguy99:
I understand!

If you get another one, it may be best to stick to the AT&T firmware and update to Android 10.

After I've done this, I can attest the AT&T model on Android 10 is the best version of this phone.

Everything is refined and works.

Quick Reference:

This is my 2nd V35..first was AWM as well but loaded Google Fi firmware and used it on Pie.

Then I upgraded to a V40 on Android 10...gave it to a family member then got a G8 on Android 11 ...which upgraded by itself to Android 12(worst thing ever).

That one is for sale. I got a 2nd V35 for dirt cheap on ebay just to play with and had to buy an AT&T SIM for the update to work but once I did I had no idea how good Android 10 is on this phone.

You won't regret it...You can always unlock it later on by the paid SIM unlock service. Having it unlocked on the official AT&T Android 10 is better vs the Korean version where calling and other features don't work
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] Opistorincos:
I agree with this take. I was on the ATT rom for three years before i decided to be adventurous and that got me ****ed. Can you by chance help with qfil partition backup?
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] Moppusan:
My 5T will be arriving today (coming from the Moto X Pure Edition...just under 2 years old. Yucky!) and I'm reading about rooting. ADB/oem unlocking/fastboot/etc. are familiar territory for me. I just wanted to make sure of something quick: I saw the guide saying to get Codeworkx TWRP, but I also see TWRP has a dumpling recovery image. I'm kind of thinking regular TWRP is fine, but I'm always careful when unlocking bootloader/custom recovery/rooting. I figured I'd ask just to be sure.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] OhioYJ:
The official TWRP has always had issues with encryption on this device. Basically it's been behind the curve on updates. Last I heard it's gotten better, but it's generally still recommended to use Codeworkx or Blu's version. Personally I'm using Codeworkx.

Blu seems to be more updated at the moment and has Amoled, and Treble support for 5.1.5.

[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] Moppusan:
Thanks for the replies! :highfive: I went with blu's version and have had no problems. I think I read somewhere (I can't find it agian, obviously...:rolleyes:) that for a nandroid backup all screen lock safety has to be removed or encryption will prevent a restore. Would this be accurate? There's a lot of new stuff I'm trying to get used to with my 5T, coming from a closer to stock Android MXPE, especially the world of encryption. I wanted to try out some custom ROMs and wanted to make sure if I didn't like it I could restore to OOS easy. Apologies if there's a guide somewhere on the 5T forums...I've had this for 2 days now. Love it.

Another question about custom ROMs; are they as snappy as OOS? Every other Android phone I've had sacrificed speed for customization with custom ROMs. I miss the closer to stock Android look, but it's no deal breaker. I also really miss the option to make the volume buttons only control media. I tried Gravitybox for Oreo (Magisk + Systemless Xposed), but it wouldn't work.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] DoR3M3:
[MENTION=5863467]Moppusan[/MENTION] with experience anything is just as snappy as anything else... ;)

I deblot OOS and run microG on it, then if you know your way around Kernels, you can stick in EX Kernel Manager, or Kernel Adiutor and tweak up the stock kernel and get it smoother, or faster, overclock, get real crazy... RenderZenith seems like a nice kernel for OOS, it's a newer kernel version with newer features that seem to perform over stock.

It seems like, if OnePlus gave us a newer kernel version then we could have some nice newer kernel features in a stock kernel. OOS 5.1.5 is on 4.4.78 So maybe the next release of OOS will see a nicer more up to date version... Maybe some one running the latest beta can tell us what version it's on?

I'm getting ready to put up a guide, hopefully in a few weeks about doing the debloating and microG on OOS.

Remember OOS is a Custom Rom, from OnePlus... ;)
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] Moppusan:
[MENTION=8949533]DoR3M3[/MENTION], well...yeah that is another way to look at it. OOS being a custom ROM.

I'm probably in the intermediate level of Kernel knowledge. I bought the pro/premium/donate/whatever-he-calls-it version of Kernel Adiutor and have read plenty of guides on cpu/gpu governors, hot plugs, over/underclocking, input boost, voltage, storage...governors?, net congestion and blah blah blah. I think the only thing that's really over my head is the tunables for the cpu governors. I've just found settings other people have tested and try it myself.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] AlMustansir:
It would be great seeing such a guide ! Was thinking about a journey into the mirco land but my laziness holds me back :/
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] DoR3M3:
OOS is a Custom ROM, the only difference is that OnePlus is a manufacture, and because of Google's licensing, has to include the Gapps. But, I wonder if OnePlus can put up OOS for download on their site, that is GappsFree, now that would be nice!

If you're not running Linux and you are into Android, I highly recommend it. Of course there are things specific to Android, but it comes from Linux and running Linux makes the journey easier.

I'm still working on it, been typing away on it today. Also added in an extra section for the Privacy Geeks, I figured out how to do the Play Store anonymously for getting paid apps...
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] Moppusan:
I've tried Linux many times and I just can't get into it. The biggest drawback is the lack of serious DAWs (Digital Audio Workstations, if you didn't know) and gaming support (I don't think my PC could handle running anything smoothly through Wine).

Hi all,

I found this site by searching on this question. I have a friend that needs to block a number. As many of you know the cell companies will not block numbers. In looking around I've found programs that you can load into win based phones that will accomplish this. These smart phones are a little out of their price range. I want something that will just disconnect the call. The silent ringer to voicemail will not work in this case as the person leaves highly insulting messages and they would rather not have to go through 20 messages to get to the one good one.

i have found some references to Nokia phones that have this option on their phones under the "Security" section. I went to the Verizon store but the counter help was worthless. None of the phones that they had on display (that I could look at) had that feature. I'm thinking its a newer version of firmware thats not loaded by verizon by default.

Is anyone here using a phone on the verizon network that has the ability to add numbers to a blocked list? If so can you please post the name and model number of the phone. Please also post if you had to download a new/different version of the phone firmware. I'd like to get my facts straight before I recommend anything to them. Maybe a smartphone is the only way to go.

thanks for any information you can provide
[General Topics] Deuce Nitro:
Not a phone, but good software...

PocketMax PhoneAlarm allows you to block any numbers that you choose to blacklist. It has an option for pick up/hang up (immediate - phone doesn't even ring) as well as send straight to voice mail and/or reply via SMS. (It will also block text messages.)

I use it and swear by it. hth :)
[General Topics] duprade:
There are plenty of programs out there that will block calls and sms.

Search for "BLACK LIST" or "BLOCK" in Windows Mobile and you'll turn up alot of them.
[General Topics] nahmus:
thanks for the reply's guys. At this point a smartphome is a little out of her price range. If it keeps up I'll just spot her the cash once i get a few checks in the bank. She's good for it :D

I'm also gonna pop into one of the bigger verizon stores around here and browse their phones to see if i can find the elusive block feature :D

I use my blacklist in SPB Phone Suite, then shoot it over to youmail.com where they hear a "your num. is blocked" message then hangs up on them.

Figured I'd start a thread for case options.

My favorite, and what I've used for a year now on my P2XL was the Maxboost mSnap Thin Cases Perfect Fit. Unfortunately they don't currently show anything for the P3.

My runner up was the Spigen Thin Fit. It didn't have the same full body protection as the Maxboost (sides were exposed) but I did like it a lot otherwise. Spigen does, apparently have the cases already, though they're not available on their website. They list 2 ThinFit options for the P3. A regular and a "360". Since I can't click on them I have no idea what the difference is. I WAS able to order one of these from Amazon. I'm assuming it's the regular one though. Figured it'll work until the Maxboost is released. Anyway, here's link: http://a.co/d/dcRtP8q

I really like Spigen cases. Would probably get one for this device.

Yes, same! I've had a Spigen on my Nexus 5 for all 5 years I've had it and underneath the thing still looks brand new.

I've pre ordered the Spigen Thin Fit case in Graphite Gray off Amazon. It's currently showing an arrival date of around Thanksgiving. I hope it gets here sooner than that though!

My fav pixel 2 xl case by far was the fabric case, but i had like 8 cases, I change my cases like i change my wallpaper.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] pclewis:
Spigen

Amazon has the Rugged Armor right now. I find it beats the Thin for protection. Somewhere in between is the Diztronic that have on the Pixel XL. It is not our yet for the Pixel 3, so I got the Rugged Armor for $12.99 out of stock. I have had one before and it is a very good, one piece TPU case with much better drop protection than the Thin Fit. I am pretty clumsy.

Same here. I've always used the Grip version. I've dropped every one of the phones I've used it on several times and they always survived without so much as a scratch. Ordered one for the Pixel 3 yesterday. The only pitfall is they are a bit spendy but they are also great protection. :)
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] kapslock12345:
Thanks! Never heard of them but exactly what I need since I rarely ever drop my phone. Micro scratches are more an issue for me since I' always go caseless, but think I'll give this a go!
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] GldRush98:
Well, Spigen canceled my order for the thin fit in gray. I don't want a black case, so meh.

Decided to order the cloth case from Google in fog, as it does look mightttyyyy fine on a white phone in their pictures. Wasn't thrilled with the $40 price tag, but whatever. My only concern is that it will eventually start looking dirty.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] Archangel:
Yeah they are a bit pricey but still well worth it. I just bought mine and it should be here Monday ready for my Pixel 3 whenever they ship LOL.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] alxrock:
I grabbed a couple of Google's fabric cases from Verizon's site as they have 25% off Pixel 3 cases going on right now. I also grabbed an Otterbox Symmetry clear case.

update: So now that I have my phone. The fabric cases are nice, very minimal and the charcoal and fog colors look great. The Otterbox, however, didn't work out. It was very bulky and got scratched in a few places straight out the box. Getting my phone in and out of it was a pain too. So now I've returned the Otterbox and replaced it with a Spigen Liquid Clear case. The Spigen gives a good amount of protection with a clean look to really show off my white Pixel. It has a nice grip to it as well.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] GldRush98:
How'd you get it shipped so quick? Mine is showing it won't ship until the end of October.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] robocuff:
That's odd. I ordered mine on Friday and received an email yesterday saying it had shipped. Perhaps they're out of them now? I've ran into that in the past with them but it always said something on the page about it.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] cambunch:
The regular Thin Fit that you linked doesn't have any coverage for the top and bottom edges of the phone. The Thin Fit 360 does, and also includes a glass screen protector. The Amazon link for the Thin Fit 360 is http://a.co/d/acFpbNf
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] scgf:
Use the code MNML20 to get 20% off your order. I used the MNML case on my Pixel 2 and it is the next best thing to using the phone naked. It doesn't diminish the feel of the phone at all and protects it against scuffs and scrapes which is exactly what I need. I don't drop phones (famous last words, lol) but hate cosmetic damage. The Pixel is a lovely slim phone and I really don't want to bulk it out with a thick case.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] PuffDaddy_d:
My clear case from Cimo just arrived. Still waiting on the phone, but it's a typical clear TPU. Not as thin as an X Level case, but not as thick as the Spigen Liquid Crystal cases. It will work until X Level releases one.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] Note10.1Dude:
I buy the phone dry bags on Amazon in multi-packs. The seals usually fail after opening and closing them 50 times or so, but the bags are cheap.

I throw my phone in one for any sports and have had my phone take a dip when boating and dive into a snow bank. They aren't perfectly clear and make the screen less responsive, but are good liquid protection.

[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] 787Dreamliner:
Hi, one question about the original Fabric Case for the 3 XL. I have used it for 3 days now, and it feels like it has widened during that time.

Its like the case is a little bit too big for the Phone, on the right hand side where the buttons are the edge of the phone is moving around which feels pretty weird. At the beginning it only occured very rarely and just a bit, now it almost feels like its loose.

Have you experienced the same?
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] papayayoghurt:
Yeah, i have the same "problem". Especially it felt more loose every time i removed and attached the case (even though i only did it like 5 times), i think i'll look if it gets worse over the time (if it stays like that, it's ok) i'll return it to Amazon.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] 787Dreamliner:
Thats a pity, such a nice case. I dont know if I can live with it, probably not. For 15-20 bucks I could maybe, but not for 45.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] Exokan:
I'm using the Google fabric case (with the 3) and it's nice. Definitely more style over substance but I despise cases and the need for them (the aluminum HTC One phones could take a beating). Haven't seen any issues with stretching... been using for two weeks. The slick/slippery feeling has slightly worn off and the case has super tiny lip so the screen won't make direct contact when placed face down on a clean table. Not sure if it's $40 worth, definitely $20, but I suppose fashion isn't cheap...
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] 787Dreamliner:
So you had it on your phone for the whole two weeks? This maybe explains why theres no strechting, seems to happen when the case is attached/removed several times.

Rocking a generic 2$ case from AliExpress while waiting for my X-Level case to arrive, but I'm pleasantly surprised by the quality of it.

Counters fingerprints very effectively and doesn't feel too bulky.

[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] Exokan:
I take it out of the case every so often (I love the feel of the phone without the case). Must have done it over a dozen times since I've had the phone and I'm still not experiencing any stretching. Maybe I got a good batch or something?
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] 2nd Sky:
How hard is it to press power or volume rockers?

Have the same case for nokia 8 sirocco and its very hard to press :/
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] Hatshipuh:
I've added some tiny cuts along the sides of the buttons with a carpet knife so they have less travel resistance when pushed, just like how Spigen makes their buttons so clicky.

My powerbutton sits pretty firmly anyway so I can't tell if that made a difference, and the volume rocker was pretty clicky already without modding it, but I was so used to this mod with cheap cases that I did it without much thought lol. It may be that the volume rocker became easier to click though.

Tap-a-talked from my Pixel 3
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] 2LoT:
I was about to order a Spigen case on Amazon. But as I planned the purchase of the Pixel 3 a few weeks ahead of time. So I figured for $12, I could order 4 different cases and 2 glass screen protectors on eBay.

I am amazed that a $1.75 transparent case on eBay could be that good. There are many similar items, this is the one I bought Shockproof Ultra Slim Soft TPU Bumper Skin Case. The annoying thing is the shipping delay. It takes from 3 to 6 weeks. Not all cases are yet delivered but now I am not convinced that expensive cases would be significantly better.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] GibsonSGJ:
My first Pixel 3 case was the official fabric case that I received with my phone and used for about 2 months. I have not experienced any of the stretching that others have described. It still fits as tightly as it ever did and looks fantastic. However, I really don't think it provides much in the way of protection and there is no lip around the screen.

I later ordered the Belroy leather case, which felt great in the hand and has a lip, but is also lacking somewhat in actual protection as it's pretty thin. The buttons were also pretty stiff with the power button being completely devoid of any feeling or click. My biggest issue with this case is that after only 3 weeks the edges of the leather where it meets the frame was peeling up and was uneven right from the get-go. I returned this case to Amazon.ca as it was way to pricy to have QC issues like that.

I'm now rocking the Rhinoshield Solid Suit and I have to say that I love this case. It feels very high quality and is not a soft TPU like your typical case of this style. It's a very rigid material with an eggshell like feel. Around back, there is a portion of the case that mimics the etched glass on the Pixel 3. This not only looks cool, but this area is covered with a grippy material that feels kind of like rubber only it has a texture to it and is much smoother than I would expect rubber to be. It feels really good to hold and adds great grip while not making the phone difficult to slip in and out of a pocket.

The buttons on the Solid Suit feel very tactile and "clicky" but are not loose and do not rattle. The volume rocker is especially great to use. With the scallop between the top and bottom of the rocker, you always know where your thumb is. I also ordered the package of multiple colored power buttons as this case allows you to swap out the power button for one of any of the available colors. I'm using red with the black case and I don't think I'll change it. I just think it looks cool.

I would have to say that the only negative if you can call it a negative, is how tight the case is on the phone. I absolutely have to use the two thumb method of removing the case as shown in Rhinoshield's tutorial, and even then it is really hard to remove. I've only removed the case once since receiving it thinking I would wipe out any dust that got between the case and the phone, but there actually was none. As a result, I don't think I'll be removing it again anytime soon. The flip side of this is that it is rated with 11-foot drop protection so I don't think you can get a much safer case.

For my OG Pixel I used both the Speck Presidio Grip and the Spigen Rough Armor and, while those were both great cases, the Solid Suit feels and looks much better, appears to be more premium and I'm sure it will wear better than either of them due to the materials used.

Lastly, Rhinoshield sells a lens adaptor and a couple of different lenses that you can use with this case if you like experimenting with stuff like that.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] AndroidGX:
hi guys, I'm looking for a good skin (very thin) gel case (if possible cheap), any recommandation ? :highfive:

*edit* : I think I found one, I will try it
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] Hatshipuh:
My X-Level cases have arrived.

First off the hardcase. Fits firmly and covers all sides. Softtouch plastic has a nice feel and the notches at the back makes it less slippery. Buttons are covered as well and are still easy to press. It doesn't wrap around the sides as much, so it'll sit on the TGSP when laying face down.

Next up the TPU softcase. It's very thin, almost as or even thinner than the hardcase, so it doesn't add much bulk, but on the downside, won't add much drop protection either. I guess the softer material will absorb shocks better than the hardcase but not by much. It's good enough for scratch protection and a bit placebo drop protection :silly:. Wraps around the sides a bit more than the hardcase, so it sits flush with the TGSP, but laying face down it probably still sits on the TGSP due to the softer material.

For now I'll stick to my generic case till I value thinness over drop protection :o

Based on everyone's reviews I should get the RhinoShield Case for Google Pixel 3 [SolidSuit] if I want fall protection instead of the Spigen Rugged?
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] GibsonSGJ:
I have the Spigen Rugged Armor for my OG Pixel. It was/is a great case, especially for the cost compared to many more expensive cases. That being said, the Rhinoshield Solid Suit is a far better case. It just feels much more premium in the hand and offers 11 foot drop protection.
