[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ekerbuddyeker:
hi. Anyone got any suggestions for a better dialer for this candybar phone with front facing keyboard?

All I can seem to find are HTC type ones that require a landscapre view to be able to dial directly from the letters on the keyboard (as opposed to numbers).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] AndyInParadise:
Better dialer for 8502

I second this. I have installed HTC Touch Dual Dialer and it works great except you cannot use the hardware buttons only the screen buttons.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] AndyInParadise:
Found a great solution.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Mandingo:
One problem I have found with alternative dialers on the 8502 is that the "disable touchscreen while on call" option doesn't work any longer.

Does this dialer still allow the screen to remain locked?

i-mate 8502: Anybody sells display or phone? /¿alguién vende pantalla o teléfono?

Good afternoon, folks

I was relatively happy with my i-mate ultimate 8502 till I dropped it and the display broke.

As I'm against buying new stuff if you can at a reasonable price fix something, I'm asking:

is anybody willing to sell almost altrusistically a display or even the whole phone? We could do it through the normal channels (paypal, google, ebay,whatever). Or in person, I'me based in Spain.

Warm regards,

Manuel
[Sony Cross-Device General] audioqueso:
With Android 8.0, there is no longer "install from unknown source".

Now it is tailored by specific apps.

However, you need to have "unknown source" enabled in order to flash using Flashtools.

So how do you flash a Xperia that already has 8.0 without "unknown source"?

I spent the past 12 hours trying different approaches, but nothing works.

Xperia Configurator doesn't work to begin with. I wasted more time trying to get Xperia Configurator to work. Once I got Configurator Cloud, it does nothing.

Baaically, it seems that if you have an Xperia on 8.0, you can no longer use flashtool.

Help please

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] JOSHSKORN:
I just got my Note 9 about 12 days ago and I'd been using an extended battery pack on it. I'd been noticing that my battery pack doesn't seem to lose power, while my phone does. I just ran a test and my phone actually shut off when it ran out of power. However, the extended battery case/pack has 4 charge indicator lights on it, all of which were still lit. Actually, correction: It has four lights on it, the last light is blinking, so maybe it's possible tat it is slowly calibrating? Just trying to make some sense on the matter.

I have the SM-N960U from T-mobile, and from what I understand, the bootloader cannot be unlocked, thus rooted. Correct me if I'm wrong on that. From past experiences, this seems to matter when trying to get extended batteries to discharge properly. Please comment. Thanks.

Edit: I'm using this case. It looks like some generic case made in China...which might explain a lot. I'm actually looking at the box right now and cannot even find a brand name.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] willhemmens:
Stating which case you're using would help. It sounds like you're just checking the battery level, not turning it on, perhaps try a long press and see if the phone starts charging.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] brianlp:
I have a battery pack that I wanted to try with my Note 9. Once I turn on the battery pack, it begins to charge the phones battery. As I use the phone, the battery pack continues to charge the battery just as if I was using the regular charger. The battery pack begins to discharge as I use the phone, while the phone battery stays at 100%. It stayed at 100% until the battery pack ran out of juice, then the phone battery starts to discharge. It sounds like you never turned on the battery pack.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] JOSHSKORN:
I've added this text to the OP.

I did add text to the OP and also, I think you could be right. I just did try a long press and the lights on the battery are staying lit. For every time I unplug my phone, I have to repeat this. The lights turn off when discharged from a power source.

On a similar note, I noticed that my phone will not connect to my computer while this case is on. It works fine without. Not sure if that's a common problem w/ extended battery cases or not. I tried with and without the case activated.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] willhemmens:
Yeah the data transfer via case is a kinda premium feature it seems. These are the only battery cases that I know that support it: https://zerolemon.com/collections/samsung/products/galaxy-note-9-battery-case-5000mah-upgraded

Honor 8X Vs. 7X 3D Mark Benchmarks

"3DMark benchmarks the GPU and CPU performance of your device. At the end of the test, you get a score, which you can use to compare models. But 3DMark also gives you so much more."

I ran the 3DMark benchmark app on the Honor 8X and the Honor 7X to see the differences between the two devices. While the Honor 8X tests much higher than the 7X, it still struggles quite a bit with 3D graphics.

It's very smooth.

It doesn't have option to change fullscreen 18:9 for apps but it's enabled by default for all apps so not bad.

Unlocked bootloader, not rooted. I used to be able to update Netflix on Google Play Store this way by checking for app updates, but seems like that's gone. I've tried clearing Play Store and Play Services cache/data, but no luck.

Do I have to sideload the app from now on? And if so, where's a reliable (ie: not full of malware) source for the Netflix apk?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] MrMagicPotato:
Use Yalp Store! It's an app store identical to the play store where you can find and update all them blocked apps

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] smokeythebear3:
I think I might have figured out the issue with Netflix not showing up in the play store. Im also unlocked and couldn't get it to work for the longest time. I think it's twrp that's causing the issue. I decided to go flash the factory image to go back to stock. Instead of using twrp, I used the Canary build of magisk to patch the boot.img from the factory image, then flashed the patched boot.img to achieve root. Netflix showed up doing it this way. So I had stock recovery, was unlocked and rooted with Netflix showing up on play store.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Recovery has nothing to do with it. My P2XL: Android 10, stock, rooted (Magisk 20.0), and TWRP installed. INSTALLED Netflix from the Play Store and updated Netflix from there as well.

I can confirm that since Magisk 20, Netflix installs and updates fine from the play store. Before that I was using Aurora store.
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] XDARoni:
Best Camera Features of the Honor 8X​

The Honor 8X's camera is way better than other shooters in the same price range. Try these features to get the most out of your Honor 8X camera.

1. Aperture Mode

The trick to creating a great wide aperture effect is having a phone with a great camera and software that can accurately differentiate background object from foreground objects. The AI NPU chipset makes all the difference in this area. The phone's ability to identify different objects and and use the dual-cameras to recognize depth, means the Honor 8X can create extremely effective aperture mode effects. Get creative with this mode and see what kind of shots your can get.

2. Portrait

Portrait mode is done extremely well on this phone. If it's your first time using portrait mode, know that it's basically your phone detecting the outline of your head/body and blurring the background. The quality of this popular effect comes down to your phone being able to accurately trace your face and remove it from the backdrop.

The Honor 8X''s large 16MP selfie camera lets you take really detailed selfies that look amazing. Try out the portrait mode with your selfie camera and you're going to be really impressed with the results.

3. AI Mode

AI mode was the main feature advertised in this phone. Toggle it on and try it out. It can really bring out the color in some of your shots. If you don't like the way the effect looks, you can toggle it off afterwards in your galley. I have this feature toggled on at all times, since there's really no reason not to. Your original image is always preserved without the AI, so you can get rid of it later on.

4. Video Format (H.265) (H.264)

You can choose the format in which your videos are encoded. You have the option of H.265 or H.264. The H.265 option will give you a more compressed video resulting in a smaller file size. The H.264 option is a less compressed format and will have slightly higher quality video.

Go to Video > Settings > Video Size > Format. to access this option.

5. Edit Your Camera Menu

With all the different camera modes built into the default camera app, it's nice to be able to customize which modes your have quick access to.

From your camera app, go to More > Edit then you can rearrange all of your different camera modes.

Hello,

Forgive me I am a complete noobee.

I bought a Himalaya (Ebay) which seemed to work correctly for a few hours. The it froze and kept freezing on reboot. Next day similar sequence. I basically found it irratic as to when it would switch on and when it would stay on, (I charge battery fully on the cradle but no difference).

Hoping to cure the problems I managed to upgrade from PPC2003 to WM6, but it's performance is the same as before.

Can anybody recommend a fix?

Again forgive me if this is a really dumb question.

Thanks.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] gangstaunitg:

Since we have QC 4.0, how do we make sure that the USB Type-C cables we buy will maximize the fast charging feature?

I'm looking to pair it with a right wall charger inspired by this other thread (i.e. a wall charger that truly supports QC 4.0 since the one in the box supposedly is just QC 3.0 certified).

I'm finding it difficult to find QC-certified cables, let alone ones that say they specifically support QC 4.0.

Any tips on what specs to look out for?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Accessories] achickennugget:
Look out for type c cables that support power delivery, those an handle the high wattage for qc 4.0. If you want fast charging speeds, looking out for chargers capable of outputting 30 watts. i.e 3amps x9v= 27w
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Accessories] Suxter:
Nah I think you should wait for xiaomi to release a QC 4 charger & cable. Because USBPD is still a mess.

Some interesting charts you can see in here https://www.androidauthority.com/state-of-usb-type-c-870996/

As you can see same phone charged different speed when they use different chargers & different cables. (or same charger with different cables)

Mi 8 won't be different, so want for xiaomi to release a QC 4 charger & a cable to take advantage of the QC 4 / 4+ technology.
