[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] JasonDanielZz:
Hi,

now that's strange that you're getting it with 2.4. and it's doing that. I used to have a similar problem that I was able to fix by deactivating DHCPv6 in the router menu.

If you're router has that option and you don't need DHCPv6, you could try turning that off to see if it helps.

My problem is that I was never able to test if it's only the 5Ghz from my router that's causing the problem or if it's 5Ghz in general, cause everyone I know is using 2.4.

But let me know if deactivating DHCPv6 helped.

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] rainblo20:
i have a question, if i wanted to swap the logic board from an a2017u with a broken display that has hardware capacitive buttons on bottom to another a2017u which the borard doesnt work on but has software buttons is that possible would the buttons matter when swapping the boards?﻿
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] rainblo20:
Well it half worked

I went ahead and gave it a shot and surprisingly it worked right off the bat, but now I do not have a navigation bar at all even if I flash the a2017u b35 SD ota it doesn't show .. But atleast the damn thing boots now yay.! I wonder tho What makes the rom enable the on screen buttons by default ? Anyone ever been in a similar situation? :o Its not a major issue just a annoyance having to install an app whenever I reset or switch roms to use back and home buttons
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] AnonVendetta:
I can't answer your questions, but it's my understanding that the A2017U and A2017G have capacitive hardware buttons, but the A2017 only has software navigation buttons, which should make its' usable on-screen real estate a tad bit bigger. A2017 screen also has Force Touch, but U/G models don't.

I'm kinda surprised that your experiment didn't work, as long as the motherboard (same as logic board?) is OK then the buttons should work on both (if there is no hardware damage), I would think.

As for what enables the buttons, well, I know from experience that the first time Google setup wizard has something to do with it. I've ran into issues in the past where I couldn't complete it (it never appears) because of removing nearly all Google components. And the ROM has something to do with it too, but I'm not sure exactly how. On ROMs where GApps aren't present by default (AOSP, LineageOS, etc) it has happened too, but coincidentally only after I flashed GApps and later manually removed them. But in all cases, the menu and back buttons no longer worked, Home worked no matter what. Not sure why all 3 buttons weren't affected. A simple clean flash of the ROM was enough to fix it in every case.

I'm not a fan of GApps anyway, I prefer the open source MicroG as a drop-in replacement for Play Services.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] rainblo20:
so just for clarity, i took the motherboard from a clean never modified a2017u that did have hardware buttons on the display but broken screen . put it in my other a2017u that does not have hardware navigation keys. its software only but same model as other device, which i find odd because the boards were pretty much the same . i too thought it would do what you said,and just appear sometime at beginning of rom setup. well they do not show up at all and i still have yet to unlock bootloader and try a custom rom or root the device.

TLDR: so i flashed the ota package of stock b35 after i put the clean motherboard in thinking that it would make the bar appear on setup but nothing no navigation keys appear at anytime unless i install an app from playstore idk if this info is usefull to anyone but i am just going to root and install lineage to get a working bar welll hopefullly all goes well .
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Choose an username...:
not entirely right though. The first batches of A2017's didn't have capacitive buttons, then after some time they started coming with them. and the screen/digitizer are the same on all 3, they are interchangeable in fact, but the enhanced editions (which have the same model name actually) are the ones that have force touch.

In English: Many A2017's have capacitive buttons, if not most (I recall seeing reports of A2017s carrying the buttons when I bought my phone, Feb 2017). The ones with Force touch are the A2017 and A2017U Enhanced (6GB/128GB). There are also A2017 and A2017U 4/128 GB, those don't have force touch. And G's only come in 4/64, ofc no force touch.

Plus the A2017 without capacitive buttons has the exact same screen. It just has a black bar where the buttons would be. That's where the screen chip goes, you can't just get rid of that bezel without pulling an Apple.

It looks fugly... You have an empty black bar and THEN the capacitive buttons above it. It's like 2 cm of bezel

Hi

I bought Redmi Note 3 for my wife 3 days ago, used.

On the phone was LOS 14, but some things like phone calls were not working as it should (the phone call screen would not show up at all), so I decided to flash MIUI.

After reading XDA and internet, I managed to do so, I flashed V9.6.2.0 MHOMIFD, and after booting first time MIUI

I get activation screen.

Mi account was 165***793, and the associated phone number was from the guy who I bought the phone, so I think, I'll just ask him the password, and thats it.

He said, the phone number is correct, but Mi account is not his, his starts with 169***xxx.

He said thats why his friend flashed LOS on the phone, because of this problem.

When I try to reset password i type his phone number, he gets the code, and forward to me, I typed it, and then I reset password.

Try that password on the phone, not working, said wrong username or password.

When I log on miui website with his account, his ID is different then the one on the phone, but his phone number is correct on the phone because it is associated with that ID, but don't have access to that ID.

Is there any way to use this phone normally on MIUI, or how can I get pass this screen, or reset that password, becouse I know that phone number, but MIUI account is different than the one that is tied to that phone number. I would like if there is any 'official' way of geting that password, I am tired of flashing, fastbooting.

I hope you get what I want to say, sorry for my English.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Black_Stark:
U cant officially unlock coz its already associated with number.

Fasboot flash latest beta miui 10 rom. Unlock unofficially and flash custom oreo or pie rom.

Staying on stock rom will always ask for valid mi acount.

So better unlock unofficiallly on latest miui10 rom.

And use custom rom.

[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bveditz:
All,

I'm coming from an Android 8 Galaxy S8+ back to google (last google phone was the nexus 5... I was waiting for Wireless charging again.. hah!) and got it set up. The thing I've noticed is that the wallpapers app has different (and generally worse, in my opinion) live wallpapers then I had on the previous wallpapers app. I'm assuming the app displays different live wallpapers (called live wallpapers on 8 and now 'living universe' on 9). Any idea if theres a way to get the older wallpapers back? I really liked the old beach one and a few others.

Thanks!

ditto I like the old street one where the car drives by. I was able to download an app to get the old wallpapers but then I can't manually switch to dark theme even though I could on 2 xl when it was on Pie...slightly annoyed.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] krabman:
You can download the APK for the P2 Wlwallpapers around here somewhere, I've got both Pixel two and three on my One plus 5 right now. You'd be wanting the ported version rather than the stock APK I'm thinking because there are a couple duplicates and that will prevent conflicts. You will have two of the same in the case of the dupes and can select either one when you set.

Can't disagree, I think ifi could only have one if go with the P2s.

The screen is huge, but the status bar is too small: it is difficult for me to read the signal strength, the battery power and even the notifications icons are too small.

Just wondering what wireless chargers everyone is using.

Seeing that the Pixel Stand is so expensive. I've opted to use my Samsung Fast Wireless charging stand as my main charger, but noticed that my old Nokia DT-900 charger (back from my Nexus 5) still manages to show "charging rapidly" on my Pixel 3, so I have it as an extra charger for my living room.

So what chargers are you guys using or what do you recommend?
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] bobby janow:
I'm using the Nexus wireless charger from years ago. Also says charging rapidly. Relegated it to the recycle heap, pulled it out and voila

Edit.. lol doesn't work. Says charging but doesn't. Oh well.

I have a lot of Wireless chargers ( Nexus 4 wireless charger, energizer wireless charger, Samsung ) but none of them support 10W so I ordered ( Lenovo Fast Wireless Charging Pad W03 )

I have a square Nexus charger at home and one at work (and an older Nexus orb charger I don't use anymore), and both the square ones are working with my Pixel 3.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] bobby janow:
I couldn't get it to work. It looks like it's charging, makes all the little noises and displays, but the charge doesn't go up. I'll try it again I guess. I have so many USB c cords and chargers now that it's really never a problem. My laptop also has a usb c port for fast charge. I did notice the old Nexus charger got pretty warm so it kinda threw me off the wireless idea. Maybe on black Friday the Google one will go half off and I'll get it then.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] CSX321:
The one at work, at least, is definitely charging. I haven't payed attention to the one at home. Make sure the wireless charger is plugged into a 2 amp charger adapter.

[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] dorj1234:
Pixel 3 capability of 18W - what does it mean for 10W or 39W Qi chargers

Following up on a research.

I see lots of wireless Qi chargers, with advertised high wattage numbers. Also Pixel 3's battery array is advertised to support 18W speed charging.

Does it mean:

1. that 10W chargers are slower than what pixel 3 can handle ?

2. that 30W+ chargers are a waste of money?

3. should I look for exactly 18W chargers?

Also my 4 years old Duracell Powermat does not charge the pixel 3, I can't see why.

Last bit - if you use a charger that works, could you please link it from amazon/somewhere else please?

Thanks,

JD
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] Roscopcoletrain:
The Duracell is PMA, not Qi I believe.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] PuffDaddy_d:
The pixel supports 18w charging over USB.

The wireless charging maxes out at 10w.

Any charger over those power levels will be throttled back to meet the phone's requirements. You will not charge faster than the phone is capable of.

Yeah, not too happy I bought a qi charger for my desk and car. Might send em back to amazon. Not impressed. Hopefully Google changes this.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] youareme7:
Just a little quick background neither samsung nor google are using the proper qi fast charging standard they are using their own implementations and since samsung was first to market they dominate third party chargers for the fast charging. Belkin is making a pixel 3 compatible 10w charger though it's not out yet

https://www.belkin.com/us/p/P-F7U050-MG/

My speculation is the higher wattage profiles and receiver designs are an additional license fee and samsung and google figured they'd be cheap and just come up with their own, hey lock in!
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] bigdave79:
Yeah but my Samsung still fast charges with my Amazon 3rd party fast wireless charger coupled with a 3rd party QC 3.0 charger. I tested both my Pixel 3 XL and my S8 last night using Ampere. While the Pixel maxes out at 600 mA, the S8 got over 1200 mA so there is definitely some sort of throttling or something going on. Both devices show "fast wireless charging" on the lockscreen.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] CrazyJek:
Yea I smell a lawsuit coming...as they advertise that the phone is compatible with 10w Qi chargers...but fail to mention that it only works with their proprietary wireless charger. So...basically the 3 chargers I just bought are useless.

Although im not too worried...this seems like a software limitation put on to force people to buy Google's overpriced Pixel Stand. I am sure this community will find an easy and quick workaround to get the Pixel to use the real Qi standard.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] youareme7:
Right, because as i said most if not all third party chargers have implemented samsung's fast charging design. Google made their own so it's not compatible with samsung's type but they both support the "basic power profile" which is why all chargers at least function at 5 watts.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] alxrock:
Update from Android Police!

"Google has circled back with us for some clarification. While only the Pixel Stand will charge the Pixel 3 wirelessly at full speed right now, a certification process is underway through the company's Made for Google program to allow third-party chargers to operate in the same manner, at full 10W speeds.

These certified chargers will take advantage of the protocol currently used by the Pixel Stand to similarly charge the Pixel at 10W. Belkin's got one in the works, and presumably we'll see other accessory manufacturers follow suit.

While the third-party chargers will be formally certified and able to operate with the Pixel 3 at full speed, Google's unique charging UI will remain exclusive to the Pixel Stand."

So it looks like fast wireless charging will come, but the companies will have to go through some extra steps to get certified.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] CrazyJek:
SO basically, what this means is that I should send back the three 10 watt chargers I already bought?

Is this limitation on the wireless charger themselves or in the phone software? I don't wanna run the risk of not sending back $60 worth of chargers only for the company I bought them from never being "certified." If it's a software issue on the phone itself then Ill just keep these and wait for the developer community to find a flashable workaround.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] youareme7:
It's a hardware limitation because google didn't follow the Qi specification for fast charging antenna design and handshaking and made their own instead, those ones you have will only charge at 5 watts (probably they're based on samsungs implementation)

I learned way more than I thought I needed to about Qi charging standards today, so stupid everyone has their own fast charging implementation.

[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] jd1639:

[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] BlackKeys:
Note that any of the wireless chargers that work with Pixel 3 phones at 10 watts will be incompatible with all OTHER phones except for 5 watt charging. So, you can't just buy a Pixel 3 charger and expect it to cover other phones!
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] samnada:
Is there a XDA consensus on whether fast charging is worse for batteries than slow charging? Just curious. I have a Qi charger that works fine with my Pixel 3 since I only use it for overnight charging and don't care about charge speed.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] CSX321:
There's no question fast is worse, because of the physics of it. Charging faster generates more heat, and heat is bad for batteries. The thing is, though, it may not be measurably or meaningfully worse. I'm like you: I have my Nexus charger on the nightstand, and it charges the Pixel just fine for my needs.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] samnada:
I've read articles both ways, so just wondered what the wisdom is around here. My Qi charger did fast charge my previous Galaxy S7 and I saw no issues with battery life over the couple of years I had it, but I'm actually happy the Pixel is slow charging since it seems less risky. My Anker wired backup battery does fast charge the Pixel, which is really what I want for on the go, so actually best of both worlds.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] Roscopcoletrain:
Do we know that for sure? Right now some charge phones at 5w, iphones at 7.5 and samsung phones at 10w. So why couldnt it also include the Pixel tech to also do 10w? Where have they said its one or the other?
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] BlackKeys:
I am still looking, but I haven't been able to find my source for this. It was in the comments following a related article. Still looking, and I also asked the question in Googles Pixel forum.
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] LilyMochi:
Hi, can anyone use an Amp meter (you can download an app called 'Ampere' on the Google Play Store for free) to measure how many mAh is going into the Pixel 3 when on the Pixel Stand? If they say that it charges the Pixel 3 at 10W, then the mAh level should be around 2000 mAh with around 4.4 Volts.﻿
[Google Pixel 3 Accessories] PuffDaddy_d:
I wouldn't trust any list that shows a Samsung charger as being fully compatible.

As mentioned a few times already, all chargers are limited to 5w with the pixel 3 until a new set of chargers get certified by Google.
