You need proof 4GB is not enough on P3XL. Watch logcat -d and see how many times it killed and restarted the processes. Its hundreds of times in few minutes. You keep discounting battery life effect of that at your own peril....:)

Don't get me wrong, I love this phone but I am not fanboy enough to defend the indefensible.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Mrxyzl:
I have a question, did anyone use qualcom izat? is it more accurate and more battery friendly than normal gps or location using network?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Yes I'm using it it helps with indoor locations like in malls or big buildings. It is battery friendly yes.

My understanding is that it is to supplement regular GPS not replace it. You use both.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Alibaba0101:
I use it, i'm not sure how i feel about regularly sharing my location data with qualcom in addition to agps/location accuracy with google (that uses network and bluetooth in addition to gps).

I did some research, i'm not sure how it goes about increasing location accuracy in addition to agps. Not a lot of documentation on it other than a few qualcom marketing blurbs.

Agreed. I haven't found a use for it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Loogey03:
Has anyone managed to root this phone? I've tried many rooting apps and it has always ended in a fail. I checked to see if the bootloader was unlocked but it seemed to be unknown with no indication of whether its unlocked or not

The specifications of the phone (not sure if needed since I'm a newbie at this kind of stuff):

Name: LGE LG Phoenix 4

Carrier: ATT

Board: msm8937_32

Android Version: 7.1.2 (Nougat)

Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 425 (Cortex-A53)

Graphics: Adreno 308

OpenGL: ES 3.0

Architecture: armv7l (32-bit)

This is all I can provide. If this isn't helpful, then I may do a bit more research on this phone. I am really edged about rooting this phone. It could be an easy process unknowingly, or it could be teeth gritting difficult. Hopefully, it won't be hard, nor easy. Hopefully someone can find something :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AustinGarrick1818:
Yes I have I looked at the LG Aristro 2 and their both the same device. I used the LG Aristro 2 TWRP recovery and was able to use custom recovery with no problems. There is a custom ROM for that device that can be used on the Phoenix 4 as well. To unlock the Phoenix 4 (including AT&T) in fast boot mode you'll need adb.

Commands:

adb devices

adb reboot bootloader

fast boot devices

fast boot oem unlock

And no prompt just auto erases data and is unlocked. After TWRP flash reboot to recovery by pressing VOL - and power. Release power and press again at the LG logo and should see a "Factory Reset" screen. Go to yes to do so and the device will reboot to TWRP. Take the Aristro 2 ROM and side load it with adb.

WARNING: /data in TWRP will ask for decrypt key for /data. The custom ROM zip will erase the key and allow to have root and full custom recovery

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] durps:
Hello all, having an issue with my 2week old note. My mic doesn't work at all during phonecalls. When i put it on speaker it does work, but not 100& clear.

Luckily I have my bluetooth mic and user that for 90% of my phone calls but still, why is this happening. Does anyone have any solutions? When i record voice msgs on facebook or whatsapp its only white noise.

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Limeybastard:
Try blowing out the mic at the bottom of the phone with your mouth or a blower.

Has the phone been underwater?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] durps:

I had the same issue. I found out that my bottom microphone stopped working after i dropped it some days ago. When i read about it some forums said that the connections may got loose. I watched a disasembly tutorial where i could locate the place of the connection and then, i pushed hard on the back where the connection was. And suddenly a pop. I managed to click the connection back and now my Note 9 work perfectly!!

Maxing out my MXPE wifi on my new installed FIOS.
[X Style (Pure) General] dollarbr:
The maximum download/upload i got was on different wireless networks.

Here they are:

maximum download, this was in my home network, 512/512 Mbps link with a TP Link Archer C9 router

https://www.speedtest.net/my-result/a/4166625520

maximum upload, got it in my college network, have no idea about their link speed, it was tested in a Aruba AP 135 access point

https://www.speedtest.net/my-result/a/4146997572
[X Style (Pure) General] Hitti2:
So I will look into a new router.
[X Style (Pure) General] dollarbr:
Just for information, i tried better routers and gigabit speed links with them, but never got higher speeds, each and every router after 866 Mbps gives me the same 400 ~ 500 Mbps down / 250 ~ 300 Mbps Upload, and this tests are made in a 0,5 ~ 1 meter range from them

Best budget router i tested was the Archer C9 from TP Link, but the one i like the most is Netgear R7000 (similar speeds, but i love Merlin Firmware option, it's an Asuswrt "modded" firmware)

What firmware is your phone running, latest stock ota?
[X Style (Pure) General] dollarbr:
yes, latest stock OTA with magisk
[X Style (Pure) General] TallgeeseIV:
Thank you. Those are really impressive speeds. I recently moved on to the Pixel 3 XL but I'm turning my MXP into a dedicated VR headset and getting wifi at those speeds would negate the need for a usb tether entirely. Making sure I don't need to change roms or anything to achieve that.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] vwite:
Is there any website that would ship to the US? I really wish I could jump on the deal on the UK that comes with free watch GT and free wireless charger but I know that won't happen but is there at least a website that would sell the phone and ship to the US? Or we are stuck with having to wait months until they start showing up on swappa and ebay?

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] vwite:
Thanks! I thought about it again an since I would not qualify for the free gift it would be $1,180 for literally just the phone since the supercharge 2.0 would not be compatible with US plug. Being able to charge 70% in 30 minutes was one of the big pros for buying this phone but without that I think I'll have to hold on with the Note 9 for a long time, maybe when the S10+ comes out I'll compare with this and if Mate 20 pro is still better I'll look again a way to buy it cheaper then :(
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] leo72793:

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] linds0r:
You can pre-order a Mate 20 PRO on Amazon.co.uk. The models do not appear to be carrier specific, which I assume means they are unlocked. Amazon specifies in the listing that "This item does not ship to the United States." Undeterred, I decided to see whether I could order the device and specify a US shipping address, which worked fine.

Questions:

Will amazon ship the item to the US even though it says it won't? When might they catch the error?

Are these UK devices unlocked? The listing does not say unlocked, but they are also not tied to any specific carrier.

Hopefully I can still get the watch and charger since I am having it shipped to US.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] vwite:
Well it's nice they didn't charge you VAT. Will you use an US to UK adapter for the supercharger 2.0 plug or will you just use another slower charger and type C cable (when not using wirleess charging) to charge the phone?

I wonder if Huawei is planning on manufacturing at all any superchargers 2.0 with the US plug

About the watch and and wireless charger unfortunately all the websites I've seen specify in bold and/or red letters that gifts are claimed on hauwei website after receiving the phone (similar to samsung gifts) and they'll be shipped ONLY to UK address. So you'd qualify but you'd still need a UK address :/
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] leo72793:
First what's VAT and second are uk and eu models the same?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] vwite:
VAT is like taxes, £749 without VAT and £899 w/VAT.

I assume the charger plug and software are different on US and EU models but not sure about any hardware differences
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] leo72793:
No no. UK and EU same thing?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] Nicelysedated:
VAT in EU averages 20%. America does not have this. So instead of 1300$ shipped the phone was 1000$.

As far as the gift, I plan on using a mail forwarding service. They provide a UK address and forward the package to you for like 30$.

There is a free addon to all versions of xp called media connect. It is also installed automatically with WM player 11 as well as vista. It will add UPnP support to your HOME network therefore you can stream software to things like your xbox 360, my nokia n800 tablet, or your dash with pocket player. UPnP is amazing on my n800 it should be just as good on the for pay pocket player. Media connect is totally free, and pocket player has a demo out.

I didn't like Orb very much, with my large collection it was kinda hard to find things. But it certainly works and also of course you can access it over the internet.

[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] TabascoJoe:
I purchased a G6 Project-Fi edition.

Re-flashed it to stock. Now my software channel is "na"

The phone is stuck on the May update (OPS27.82-72)

When I try to update it says it's up to date.

What does the software channel "na" mean?

How can I get it to a software channel that receives OTA updates?

Also how can I do this all without data loss?
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] blowingoff:
first: why did you re-flash to stock and how did you do that? what's your phone model and what was the build number before you re-flashed it?
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] TabascoJoe:
If you use a Project-Fi phone as an unlocked phone, text and other features do not work.

I used build OPS27.82-72 found on XDA. Still does not answer what the "na" channel is or how I can flash to another build without data loss.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] Xplorer4x4:
You really should answer peoples questions. They are trying to help you.

As for the phone, again, why are you flashing stock? The Project-Fi variant is most likely stock anyways other than a Project-Fi app possibly(pretty sure there is one to manage your service but I may be wrong.

What is the software channel? It tells carriers what region of the world your phone is designed for. For example, if it is set to retla, this is a Latin American channel and would not receive carrier updates if you were using it on a US-based carrier. I am pretty confident a google search for "software channel android" would have answered your question about 7 hours ago when you asked it. Why wait 7 hours for a response when Google can instantly answer your question. Even if you have to check out a few sites to get a proper answer, it is faster than waiting 8 hours on a response.

Now with that said, you can try booting into your bootloader and execute this command:

fastboot oem config carrier retus

Reboot and see if that changes anything.

It would be a good idea to link to the thread containing the firmware you flashed as well.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] TabascoJoe:
Man, between you and the first guy, I'm not even sure why I bother to ask the question. Last I checked the title of the forum was Questions and Answers...

I've got the question part down, but seems like I cannot get a straight answer.

My question, what does the software channel "na" mean? I know what a software channel is and how it works. I'm not asking that, what I am asking is what does the channel "na" represent.

If your so confident in Google, use it to answer my question... I tried with no avail. I got close with this article, https://xdaforums.com/moto-z-play/help/identify-software-channel-t3555285 , but na was not listed.

Also I can wait, 7 hours, 7 day, who cares as long as I can get an answer and not some snarky comments.

Now to answer some more questions that do not help to get me an answer...

The Project-Fi version is more than an unlocked phone with an app. I thought the same as well, but when you put in a SIM card from another carrier text messages do not work. (Even with the correct APN settings). My guess it has to do with the way the service bounces from one carrier to another.

I don't remember the firmware I flashed, it was months ago. I do know it was signed and official Moto firmware.

Thank you for the fastboot command, I will try that and see what it does.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] Xplorer4x4:
You don't see it listed because it's not a an actual channel. It means n/a as in not applicable. Given nothing works somebody such as yourself should be able to figure this out and realize something is wrong with your radio software or hardware wise. Maybe it's because you swear the Moto G6 fi is different than all the others G6's and you flashed firmware from a standard G6 which has different hardware? But if that's the case tell me what the specs are of the G6 fi vs the G6? You only need to list the differences.

There is a number of reasons I asked for the link to stock. However since you want to be have an attitude, and you have all the answers(research the G6 fi vs the G6 and you will understand) I guess you don't need to post here for help. You should have all the answers already.

BTW, how'd that fastboot command work out?
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] TabascoJoe:
I never said "nothing works", What I said is the Project-Fi variant does not work as an unlocked phone. Calls and data work, but messages do not. It's even on its own Project-Fi software channel. Hardware wise its all the same. I would love to know how the Project-Fi phones handle SMS that is different that an unlocked phone, but that wasn't the question asked.

Now, once the phone was flashed to a non-Fi firmware everything works. Well, just not updating. My guess is since the phone does not have a valid channel it cannot update.

Phone is out of my posestion at the moment, hence why no update, but as soon as I get it back I will let you know.

Quick question, the bootloader is locked, I assume the fastboot command needs an unlocked bootloader?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] juanboja:
Hi everyone,

I bought an honor 8 which displays in the about phone menu:

Model number FRD-L02

Compilation FRD-L02C567B160

When I enter the menu through the code *#*#2846579#*#*, and I go into veneer informations -> version info. It shows under manufacturer information: FRD_L04_V3.

Is this right?

I bought one back in February. Checked my device and it's just like OP's
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] agraceful:
It means some person got a US version cheap and rebranded it.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] juanboja:
That would be too improbable... Two different phones, bought at different times... I guess that is the official version for the honor 8, regardless of the specific model. I also have a FRD-L04 and is the same version info..
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] agraceful:
No, not really. It's extremely common for people to get ripped off from random online sellers. The l-04 is the American model. That simple. Huawei/honor phone are made in China so every phone have the US version is absolutely moronic. You got scammed. That simple. But if your phone works then why are you complaining?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] juanboja:
Then you might be right and we have been fooled by the seller. Not complaining, just wondering why the version number. And yes, it works perfectly.

It would be good to hear from a honor 8 FRD-L02 bought in India, that would solve the doubts.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] agraceful:
It's not a big deal at all honestly. But that's exactly what happened. I could easily buy a lot of honor 8s from overseas much cheaper than here in the states, rebrand them all, and profit majorly.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] supersakis:
It makes sense what you say, however this is the opposite: it is an American model (frd-L04) rebranded as an Indian (frd-L02), so unless the former is much cheaper than the latter, I don't see the reason for the rebranding.

On the subject, although not very relevant, my FRD-L09 running Oreo is FRD_L09_VN1.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] agraceful:
Still the same thing. If they can buy American models for pennies on the dollar, they will. It was probably purchased in a batch of phones. I've done it before. You may get every single region with a batch purchase like I have. Like I said though, it's really not a big deal unless the phone doesn't work
