[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] bladerunnernexus:
Do you have signal app? want to PM me your contact info? I might be able to help you out i just went thru this same fiasco myself a few days ago. Is yours a Kindle Fire HDX 7 or an HD 7? Do you have the codename? Apollo, Thor, Saturn or w/e?

edit: nvm you have a Thor, and i can definitely help you out, but it's likely going to be need to help you out in "real time" via a voice call or IRC chat or some such, since this can get very long and drawn out trying to troubleshoot via forums

Also do you have a Linux live disc you can use to boot into?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] GbizzleMcGrizzle:
So about a year ago my SM-930FD was stolen and I got an old iphone 6, well for no apparent reason it stopped getting any service and I've decided to go back to Android. I was debating between the Pixel XL and the S7 and I'm going to get the S7 but it's been a while and things have changed (a lot)

Could anyone suggest if I should get the F or U? I'm in the USA on T-Mobile. I remember it being a pain in the ass to get things like VoLTE working before and I think Samsung had only just allowed us to switch to Nougat before it was stolen.

Anyway I have been reading and all but I'd really appreciate some first hand advice. Or should I just go with the Pixel XL?

Honestly the the fact that I was able to update my iPhone 6+ to ios 12 was really nice, except that it just broke and that's not so nice.... I know we rarely get more than 1 major update with any android device and even then over a year after its release.

anyway thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Beanvee7:
Depends what you want.

Only the G930F / Exynos SoC can have custom ROM's installed.

The G930U with the Snapdragon SoC can't do that, but the modem will better support US carrier networks and bands.
[General Questions and Answers] Shaumux:
Hi,

I had a oneplus 3, the screen of which broke.

The phone was encrypted and it reboot after the screen broke.

All I need are the photos.

Is there a way to unlock the phone via adb and revover the photos? or any other way?

Any suggestions are welcome

Thanks

Can't find anywhere in UK that can pre-order, or order, dual sim version.

Ideally somewhere doing the promotion and/or with option of PayPal.

Anyone found anywhere?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] daz_2000:
Three uk is only reseller that I know of that does dual SIM.

You cannot buy from them sim free but you can get on contract and then cancel and works out slightly cheaper than a single free device. See my post in the UK thread.

So, just to confuse things.

One of my friends who has ordered from Amazon has spoken to a customer service agent who confirmed that it would be a dual sim model from Amazon!

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] mancuk29:
Saw this on a video looks like single and dual SIM has memory slot

Am mega confused cos the nano memory slot is on the dual slot so maybe all phones are dual SIM ??

Mega confusing as their advertisment when launched showed dual SIM . And all p20 pros were dual SIM
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] bigup7:
The dual sim model is “hybrid”, so it can have either 2 sims cards and no Nano sd card or 1 SIM card and 1 nano sd card.

It cannot have all 3.

Sounds to me like there is only one hardwear version of the phone just with 2 different firmware, a UK firmware which disables to 2nd sim.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] Pr20:
Thats the explanation which makes sense for now.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] Arkangel786:
There's a lot of confusion and misinformation regarding whether the mate 20 pro will be dual sim from anywhere other than Three.

I walked into my local O2 store and they had the dual SIM L29 version on display. The sales person told me that all UK mate 20 pro handsets would be dual SIM as standard from the manufacturer.

I then went into carphone warehouse to check out their display model but the battery was dead on it. I'll check again tomorrow.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] bigup7:
I had a go on one at o2 shop today too but didn't check if it was dual sim. Didn't think too.

First impressions is its great, reminds me of an s8 plus though
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] BlueMeany68:
I've ordered from 3 now.

Interesting though that when I went into o2 and asked, the sales person opened the SIM tray and said it was single SIM. Other online retailers have also said they are only stocking the single SIM.

3 seems to be, as already stated, the only place actually *advertising* Dual SIM variant.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] mr_stoosh:
I contacted Huawei UK via Twitter and they stated that all Sim Free handsets would be single sim and not the dual sim variant. If you get your hands on on a L29 version obviously that's dual sim version and the L09 version is single sim.

Officially 3 is the only place where you'll be able to get dual sim.

So if I use any other SIM first it will permanently prevent Three Branding?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] Crucio_:
The quick start guide for single and dual SIM show that both phones can take a nano SIM card and nano memory card. However the dual version says a choice has to be made to either use two SIM cards or one SIM and nano memory.

If it's like the p20 pro or the mate 10 you will get branding of what ever sim you put in

Hi

So far only Three selling Dual Sim Mate 20 Pro.

Voda, EE, O2 single sim L09
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] gavinfabl:
Just to clarify some incorrect info on this thread.

As stated above, the sim tray is a hybrid. A single sim version will support a nano sim and a nano storage card. The dual sim version, uses the same sim tray, except the 2nd space can be used for either a nano sim or nano storage card.

There are only 2 versions of the Mate 20 Pro. One for China. The other for everyone else. This means one firmware for UK, Europe.

This then means there is no permanent rebranding when inserting a SIM card, including that by Three UK. All that now happens when inserting you SIM card, it provides an small update to activate, install the respective settings needed for your network. Some apps may get added. Maybe a boot logo on the splash screen. I’m on Three, I didn’t get a boot logo nor did someone on O2.

The network apps are uninstallable although they might be useful for some people.

The biggest news is the core firmware is the same across everywhere. So a factory reset, removes all network stuff including a boot logo, if one got added.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] YakuzaNeko:
They are all dual sim. Just one sim slot can be used as a nano sd card.

EDIT: I've inserted 2 nano sim cards into mine and it seems to work? I bought mine from carphone warehouse.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] gavinfabl:
In the settings app, under wireless, do you get an option for dual sim settings. Also which network sims did you use?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] YakuzaNeko:
Interesting,

I do not have this option. I guess I was mistaken.

Damn, just from their conference they really made it out to be all dual sim.

Yes works great and can confirm I got from Vodafone UK and have 2 sims in phone or option for using the nano sd in slot 2

---------- Post added at 02:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:05 PM ----------

Mate all have 2 nano slots. Sim 1 and sim 2 can be a second sim or a nano sd card. The dual sim varrient must have 2 sims and a sd card option.

---------- Post added at 02:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:06 PM ----------

CPW rarely know anything and are generally just sales agents with little knowledge. I pre ordered mine from Vodafone UK and had 2 slots. Sim 1 for nano sim and sim 2 that can be used for a second nano sim or a nano sd card. Works as I have trued with another Vodafone sim.

---------- Post added at 02:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:09 PM ----------

My Vodafone UK model supports the dual sim. It may be people speculating but dual sim on UK model defo works as I have tried this today
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] mancuk29:
What's your model number L09 or the other one?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] gavinfabl:
The dual sim has the same sim tray as the single sim with a minor tweak. The second slot can be used for another sim card. Or a nano storage card.

There is not a third slot. That is you cannot have 2 sims and a storage card with the dual sim.

I got if from 3 and got the update to install the network settings.

I got a 3 boot logo which I don't mind. I don't reset the phone anyway ..

If you go to dialer screen and you do *#06# you will get TWO IMEIs.

I would assume on the single some you would be getting only one. Also on the box two IMEIs are mentioned.

Maybe the above will help people easily separate if a phone is dual or single SIM. It wouldn't be surprising though that some demo units might be dual SIM because Huawei didn't have single SIM to send them.

Three UK is owned by a Chinese conglomerate - Hutchinson Wampoa. So it would make sense for them to stock the dual SIM variant. I bought mine from O2 yesterday and I can definitely confirm there is no dual SIM support because there is no option within options to select what each SIM is responsible for i.e. SIM 1 - Data, SIM 1 Messages, SIM 2 - Calls.

Also, sim lock is only possible in 2430N and f90m.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kr!shn@:
I have an idea how to do it, but I have only little programming knowledge.

Here is very basic sequence you can follow:

1.put the phone in recovery mode, connect phone to PC and mount system rw using adb remont command. you can push all files to system partition via adb.

2.make a script for hotspot (which includes hostapd & dnsmasq binary execution) and place it in system/bin/ folder with permissions 775 (I will try to get it).

3.we need UI to get input from user such as SSID & password. Tweaking settings app or making entire new app will do this. This app should be able to write data to hostapd configuration file and execute hotspot script. Place the app in system/app/ folder.

PROBLEM: since jio phone has ultimate buggy software it poses a problem if we modify system partition, whenever an OTA update comes it will automatically download and try to install it. Since we have modified system partition update will fail and phone will reboot. But software don't remember this and again it will automatically download and try to install. phone fall into a update-boot loop.

To mitigate it,we need to redirect system update URL to local address.
