[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] obsanity:
I would have said the same thing a few months ago but ever since I turned it off and just used the AOD for notifications I won't miss it.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] NPuter:
Ugh. I was hoping they put it under one of the speaker grilles again. So I guess this is the first Google Nexus/Pixel without one? I suppose we should have known this was coming with AOD. I was actually surprised the pixel 2 kept it, and it got the best one IMO since the Nexus One.

I thought I'd find it less useful with AOD display as well, but do not find that the case. Dim monochrome notification icons are definitely not as obvious as a colored notification LED which can be seen with a passing glance.

What would be cool is if a "notification LED" could be implemented into the AOD - i.e. a small clusters of pixels lit up at full brightness with color support. Wonder if that's technically possible.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] kornklown69:
This was a poor decision on Google's part... I may just keep my pixel XL 2 this time around... the notification LED is tech that does not need to disappear, so much easier to see you have a notification from across the room...
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] Tanquen:
I didn't know my 2XL had one for ages. Why have it off by default?

Also wish it was more aggressive.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bsg411:
They were weening people off the led notification with the P2XL....and promoting the use of the ambient display.

But like some said earlier....ambient display is dim.....there is no better way to glance from afar and know exactly what type notification came thru via the color of the flashing led. That cannot be beaten...I dont need to see and read the notification of the screen....just know I have one and what type it is.

Ambient display is only good for when you in arms reach of the phone to read the screen...at which point you may as well pick it up and look at the phone. It's almost pointless.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] misiokicio:
Well i guess is a personal thingy, mine is switched off since i got the phone, never use the led, my aod is always on, more than happy with it
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bsg411:
It is a preference.....Im just saying hat good is a display if you cant read it. Most people cant read dimly lit text from across a room.

One thing I dont know is....does the text on the AOD shift positions so screen burn in doesn't occur?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] misiokicio:
Haven't experienced any burn in... And myself i dont have a problem with "dimly" screen as my phone is always next to me or with me xd
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bsg411:
I just googled it....the text moves one pixel at a time per minute.....so it will take about an hour to see the text make a significant move....but it does. This is good to know since the new phones dont have the LED.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] obsanity:
I thought the same when I enabled aod but after almost a year since I enabled it there is no screen burn where the clock is. I use the display app with a gray color to check for that. The only burn in I see is the notification bar and a slight navigation bar but nothing in the aod area. So I am surprised about that because the differential aging does not work as I thought it would. So movement of pixels seems to be more important than what's on the screen.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] nookin:
I just updated to Oreo last Friday and I noticed one change in the tethering - When I enable Mobile Hotspot, the default IP address of the G5 is 192.168.43.1.

On my client (not the phone), I have a script to ping the 192.168.43.1 IP to detect if it is using hotspot or not. But after Oreo upgrade, that ping always fails.

Can someone tell me if this behavior change is related to Oreo? Is there a Firewall enabled by Oreo? Can I have it turned off?
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] nookin:
Also, when turning on Hotspot, Wi-Fi is turned off as expected. But when Hotspot is turned off, Wi-Fi is not turned back on. I think this behavior is changed. I remember my Wi-Fi is turned back on when I disable HotSpot. This can be quite annoying.

I have a colleague who will be spending a month in your beautiful country and is in need of a communication method to do the following:

1) Voice communication back to the USA and within France

2) If possible use video cameras to communicate back to family and work.

I wonder if lending him my hermes while he is there will satisfy these needs. Is there a cellular provider there that has a pay per use SIM that he could purchase and use the voice and data services to place voice calls and stream video from the cameras on the Hermes? Is there a IM client (Skype or similiar) that can use the cameras on the Hermes if the cellular service is cost prohibative but can use 80211 instead?

Any advice would be VERY helpful!

Thanks!

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] alaninsitges:
Hey there,

I've been using an old beta of OmniROM Oreo for months now, but wanted to try the 9.0 ROMs that are out there. I followed the instructions in both the Lineage and Omni threads and updated to the TWRP that's needed, then flashed the chiron firmware that's needed, then wiped all and formatted data, then installed the ROM. When I went to flash the rom, TWRP told me that my filesystem was read only and suggested I leave it that way for security. I said OK, everything installed fine, but when it restarts it fails to boot the OS and then reboots into recovery (TWRP). I have tried flashing the firmware, different ROMs, etc., but not getting anywhere.

I'm assuming this is related to leaving the filesystem read-only, but not really sure.

Anyone know what I did wrong? And how to fix it?

Thanks
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Feebleme:
Hello, please could you help me. Ive spent days on this and now I'm stuck.

I'm trying to root my htc one m8. I originally needed to do this to let recovery software find missing pictures, however I've lost that because I had to unlock the bootloader which I understand wipes any previous files.

However npw I've started I may as well finish.

Bootloader is unlocked.

Superuser is installed on phone but says needs binary update?

Flashed twrp img file and it said it was okay. Deleted cache.

When I try to boot into recovery it says "entering recovery" but after a minute it just resets and loada up as normal.

Please could you help me as to where i have gone wrong.

Root checker says not rooted.

Thank you. I have searched for thia but can't seem to find anything on it sorry.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Sequence doesn't make sense. You installed superuser how? You need TWRP to install SU/SuperSU.

Also, you need a lot more info, for us to properly help.

What OS number does it say in bootloader?

What version TWRP did you try?

What SuperSU version number did you use? SuperSU (or alternately Magisk) is standard (not SU).
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] WORF84:
Just like many others I too thought something was wrong with recovery combination.

The usual Vol Down + Power hold, release/hold at LG logo stopped working.

Seems LG likes to change this combination which each update.

If you feel like you tried it all try this.

Vol. DOWN (HOLD) + Power button hold, release (at logo) and hold again.

Similar to before only that now you have to hold down Volume down all the time.

[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] kytch34:
invalid method for the H860 now, you have to go through adb, start the adb reboot recovery method, and as soon as the android robot lasts, unplug the cable, and only then the usual combination of buttons works
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] askermk2000:
I doubt anything is changing with regards to button combination. But I know that the power button doesn't always register the clicks.

Therefore it's best to click it rapidly many times, instead of just once. That way you'll be sure to get into recovery.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] gbetous:
Hi everyone,

After unlock bootloader, I can't make it work. Impossible to boot on recovery mode with the power buttons. Do I have to release berofre/during/after the unlock information screen ?

The side effect is that once "fastboot flash recovery" has been made to flash TWRP, everytime I boot in normal mode, the recovery is overwritten with the stock (if someone has a fastboot command to directly boot in recovery, it would help !!!)
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Daimonion1980:
I'm actually having the very same behavior as [MENTION=3318971]gbetous[/MENTION] has.

Is there a way to get twrp work on h850 device?

Edit: Got it to work with this reddit post:

https://www.reddit.com/r/LineageOS/...out_being_unable_to_install_lineagos/el800py/

Kudos to the guy on reddit.

You get the joys of installing on an LG ;) I have a G4 and I guess the process is pretty similar

ensure the bootloader is unlocked

"adb reboot bootloader"

"fastboot flash recovery [twrp image on pc].img"

Here's when it gets fun. If you reboot back into LGUI, then it will wipe twrp and replace it with stock recovery

The shortcut for recovery on boot is as follows

Hold power and volume down until the screen shows the bootloader unlocked warning

Then briefly release the power button (whilst still holding down volume down) and then immediately press it back down again (still holding down the vol down button). Then stay like that until it asks you if you want to factory reset. Select yes twice. Assuming you haven't booted into LGUI in-between flashing twrp and this stage, it will not factory reset

So, back to the steps

4) "fastboot reboot". As soon as the screen goes black, press and hold power and volume down and then follow the steps described above

5) once in twrp, it will ask if you want to allow system modifications. Swipe to allow and then twrp will become persistent

Hello i have just buy g5 850 and follow (1)

(1) I use adb command under ubuntu with no problem as it explain on this post :

to avoid difficulty by to tow command

fastboot format cache

[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] CurlyBlonde:
Hello, just got my hands on one of these and I'm unfamiliar with it.

Got it off a yard sale and it's got a pattern lock on it so I thought factory resetting it might work, but I can't seem to get into download mode or recovery , and I'm not sure if the volume buttons even work at this point.

I've tried the holding down the volume down button and power , then briefly releasing pwr and holding it again, the led just flashes blue and boots in normally, I tried both with and without a sim card in it, so my question is, given that it won't pass the pattern lock, is there any way to tell if the volume buttons work ?

Is there like a service menu for the G5 or LG phones in general were you test different things?

Howm does that work? Xiaomi went put of their way to disable it? How and why would they do that?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Noter2017:
To save money.

It's just like with LTE bands. For every LTE band you use in your phone, you have to pay Qualcomm.

Enabling Galileo would have made the phone probably 0,05% more expensive and you probably have to put a Galileo chip on the mainboard which would have cost another 20 Cent.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] spexwood:
I was using my Note9 on a phone call today with speakerphone on. I noticed some odd behavior where the earpiece and bottom speakers were both acting as speakers, but randomly, the earpiece would become quieter and only the bottom speaker would be loud. After some investigating, I realized that the earpiece became quieter ONLY when I either put my phone near my head (approximately 1 foot away or closer), or when my hand went near the screen. Note though, that the earpiece never gets muffled physically.

I'm trying to see if my phone is defective or if this is actually a phone feature. A safety feature, to be precise. I THINK that this is a feature to prevent you from accidentally putting the earpiece up against your face and blowing out your eardrums (exaggeratedly speaking), but I can't be certain.

Can anyone chime in if (A) they know this is in fact a feature, or (B) if they are able to also repeat the symptoms by doing the steps below? I'd greatly appreciate it. I still have time to do an exchange (only had the phone for 3 days now) and need to take advantage if my phone is broken or defective.

How to repeat the issue:

1) Make a call

2) Put phone on speakerphone

3) put phone on flat surface with nothing on top of it.

- - earpiece should be acting like a speaker

4) Hover your hand about 1 or 2 inches over the earpiece. Do not physically muffle the earpiece though.

- - earpiece should become quieter

5) remove hand from over the earpiece

- - earpiece should get louder again

6) Pick up phone and move it to your ear

- - earpiece should stay loud until it gets close to your head

Again, I appreciate any feedback.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Gary02468:
Mine does it too. I'm guessing it may be intentional, to keep the speakerphone from blasting into your ear if you put the phone to your ear as if for a normal call.

[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] mauronofrio:
After some months i want to explain how to pass from hydrogenOS to OxygenOS and vice versa.

The first thing you need it's the stock rom, you can find here:

XDA Thread

Official OnePlus site (OxygenOS)

Official HydrogenOS site

You have to make sure that the version you are installing is more recent than the one you have on your mobile phone or the process will stop giving you an error, this is because oneplus has blocked the downgrade of the rom (You can also install the same version of the rom ).

At this moment you need to:

Push the stock rom on your internal storage ( in the main folder )

Go in settings/System/System updates/Setting icon on the top right/Local upgrade

Now you should select the stock rom you want to install and then need to click on "Install now"

You need only to wait the process finish to reboot your phone.

After rebooted you need to restore your phone, you can do it through stock recovery or better from Settings/System/Reset Options/Erase All Data (I suggest you include "Erase internal storage").

Now your phone is officially rebranded.

I made a video to explain how to make this local update:
