[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] emcnelly:
It looks like a great phone and has a good price but I'm very happy with my Pixel 3xl and wouldn't sell it to purchase a 6t. The 6t doesn't have features that are super important to me such as an amazing camera and fast software updates. Also while the under screen finger print scanner is VERY cool it seems like a solution in search of a problem to me. In my opinion there is no better spot for a fingerprint scanner then the back of the phone. I wouldn't trade the back scanner for an under screen scanner but would gladly take a phone with both. That way you could also easily unlock your phone when it is placed on a flat surface.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] krabman:
Just the opposite, I dislike the back scanner which I find no easier to use in any scenario but cant be used at all from the desk. I'm thinking they wont be easy to find in a few years now that the under screen tech is starting to get sorted out. We know Apple is still working toward it based on recent patent activity and this side of the industry is already appearing to be headed that way without the added push. Once apple goes to fingerprint for unlock and face for two factor authentication everyone left making an android phone will jump in on under screen scanning if they haven't already. The handwriting is on the wall. And no, I'm not mistaking my opinion or guesses about where this is all headed for fact, I recognize some have made friends with back scanners and are thinking/hopeful I'm full of crap. They may be right, we'll see.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] stealthj:
the 1+6T looks like a pretty cool phone. T-Mobile is offering 300 off if you trade in some galaxies and iphones. that means the 6T would come out to 280.

I may trade in an old iphone 6 to check this phone out. I heard the fingerprint sensor is faster than the vivo nex s which I just sold.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] walkerx:
i've ordered the 3xl after debating whether to get the 6T but Google keep messing about with the delivery dates, so not sure when going to get as now delayed to 15-16 Nov even though if go to there website it says new orders dispatched on Monday 5th November.

I like the 6T but it's mainly the updates I want on a regular basis so reason why I've gone for the Pixel 3XL but if Google keep delaying I may end up cancelling until they sort their deliveries out
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bp328i:
The OnePlus 6T already has TWRP and 4 Kernels
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] imna357:
Well, now that got the ONEPLUS 6T and I thought my screen brightness on my 3XL is lower compared to my LG V40, then you'll be disappointed coz my 1+6T is much dimmer esp under the sun, you need to disable the adaptive brightness then krank up the brightness to high. Glad didn't return my 3XL yet, gonna test this 6T first. Good thing I think is the multitasking on this one got 8GB RAM, snappiness is par with PIXEL just the RAM management and maybe price. And I can noticed the clarity on my 3XL is way better than 6T, and 3XL is I think wider, correct me if I'm wrong.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] matteobikk90:
hi everyone,

so, I had several issue with my internal microphone after I installed aosp.

So I tried a lot of solutions plus to install a lot of different custom roms.

I then decide to go back to stock firmware by Sony, so via flashtoll/ xperi firm I downloaded the latest available firmware for Sony XPeria X Compact.

I plugged in but the pc didn't recognize the phone, I downloaded all drivers, tried windows 10 and mac but nothing.

After this my phone ran out of battery and when i plugged in to charge the phone led was going from to red to green and viceversa.

So the only way to charge it was in .....mode(when the led is blu), all day charging and i could switch it on but still doesn't recognize when charging and no usb connection with pc so I think to convert the .ftf to flashable .zip but i am not sure if is the right method.

Can you please help me with this??

Thanks
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] maluus:
Is your USB cable healthy? It sounds like bad cable. Afaik it is not possible to flash ftf through twrp. But if I recall correct there was a recovery flashable zip version on a thread in general section you can give it a try but still I would check the cable first. I had similar problems with bad cables before.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] matteobikk90:
Hiiii, sorry for the late reply, no the cable is definitely not the original one, I will try tonight with better ones like a Samsung cable and let you know.

In case can I ask you a link or latest recvoery flashable zip for Sony Xperia X Compact?

Thanks for helping
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] maluus:
There is a topic in this section named aroma light stock Rom. I think it's recovery flashable.you can check it.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] matteobikk90:
k

I tried with original cable but still the device is not charging and recognized.

I tried to flash light Aroma and the setup was fine but is now stock at the sony logo.

Because in the guide says that you should flash original latest stock before flashing light aroma through TWRP.

So the only way I guess is to wait a new custom rom that is properly working and I guess bye bye microphone and bye bye charger unless I bring it to some repair shop.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] maluus:
When you connect it to the PC, does it detects the device even if doesn't recognize? you can see it under usb devices on device manager.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] matteobikk90:
no I don't think so, I checked on windows.

I also tried with proper cable to connect it with Mac and Windows but nothing, I mean the led is going as i mentioned from red to green but the device is not recocnized.

By the way now I have another problem, after i tried to install light aroma is still stocked at sony logo also if i install different custom rom via twrp.

I did factory reset and tried to install omni rom and still at sony logo, i hope the setup for arome light didn't modify some settings because now i cannot use usb and cannot install new stuff via sd card

:(
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] maluus:
Did you try Sony's flash tool Emma?
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] matteobikk90:
yes i tried but no detection.

By the way since i tried to install light aroma which is automatic installing kernel as well i am stuck a sony logo.

I tried factory reset and install multiple roms like aosp but also here is stuck at sony logo because the kernel is not the related one anymore.

I tried to flash the kernel via twrp by doing install img rather than zip, then select the kernel and then boot but i receive an error saying the file is bigger then the target device so i think i am ********
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] maluus:
Did you try to connect flash mod. Use flash tool(boot Sony's but the other one) and try to connect the phone flash mode. Of it works you can flash stock ftf Rom.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] matteobikk90:
so, i realized that i broke the charging port and i bought a new one online, i will replace it as soos i will receive it and flash original stock, then try new roms :)

will wait around 15-20 days but for 15 dollars i guess is worthy
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] maluus:
Knew that it was USB connection but did not think USB c port could get damaged so I suggested you to check cable. Old USB ports were easy to damage but USB c ports seemed to be durable since there are no protruding parts like the old ones. Anyway hope your problem will be solved.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] matteobikk90:
yessss, I manually changed the usb charging port and I was able to flash stock rom. SO happy, I WILL wait for a new release of aosp 9. Thanks for your help

If you're interested, to answer the original question in the thread title - use Flashtool sin editor to dump system.sin to system.ext4, then use SuperR's kitchen 'create rom zip' from the ext4...
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] Moses1682:
I'm having a Sony Xperia X Compact and ever since the Oreo update the trouble began.

It drained the battery constantly and would not connect to any computer with any type of usb cable or adapters.

I contacted Sony and after 4 months of back and forth they told me that the phone is out of warranty and they cannot help.

I started looking into hardware issues, found not problems, replaced the phone port charger and battery (the battery was faulty and currently I'm waiting for a new one). While still using the old battery I did a factory reset, no help there.

I followed instruction on Sony website to unlock the phone and bootloader (worked with incomplete instructions), went through developer options ... etc. Nothing I tried worked.

Ultimately what I want to do is install Nougat back or fix the Oreo and be able to connect to a computer using a USB anytime.

Two things I noticed in the phone:

The bootloader was greyed out until last night, now it magically became alive. Last night I installed some apps for Quick boot tool and that might done something. On another thread I read that if the bootloader is greyed out the bootloader is already unlocked.

The USB Connectivity > USB connection mode says "nothing connected" and I am literally connected to the computer as I type this.

Any way to make things work?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rickyiea:
Hello everyone, I have an archos 50d helium Android 5.1 Lollipop, which practically when turned on remains locked in the logo screen, the one with the archos logo and does nothing, does not continue and therefore does not turn on. I turned it on with the vol + key entering in recovery mod and doing the various wipe cache, total formatting, but nothing has changed, the phone remains locked. I tried to download CWM and do apply update via sd but any file I put (even the phone's firmware i tried like 10 .zip file) has always given me E: footer is wrong, signature verification failed, Installation aborted. While trying to turn it on with the volume key - it does nothing and does not go into download mode. As soon as I put the charger on the phone, if it is off, it turns on and remains locked in the logo (Archeos), but I think it charge because it stayed for a long time in recovery mode or in logo mode. Obviously the phone does not turn on and I can not use it in the download mode because it does not enter or use odin. So I have no idea what to do with it. I was just installing an app, it turned off and from that moment on forever it seems. What do you suggest to do? Thank you. :fingers-crossed:

i thought i was the only one with zero bytes files. and when you transfer them back- all good
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] SUPERUSER:
The only way I could find an alternative solution was to install "ExSDCard Access Enabler" module in magisk.

Then point the direction to /mnt/media-rw/XXXX-XXXX/* and you can carry on as usual.

But this only works for apps that allow you to enter or select a path where you can enter the directory path by typing or open a gui to browse to this directory.

Or a file manager such as Root explorer, just go back back back to / directory and go to /mnt and you'll find the folder from there.

Apps such as OpenCamera when selecting the save path you can manually either enter this path or choose to use the Android framework to go to this folder.

But if the app only has an option to "save to external sd card" it assumes the sdcard is mounted to /storage/XXXX-XXXX/* with write permissions.

A bit of a shame..but I don't use any apps that asks for this permission so I can live with it.

I like to mention that this behavior is the same on Treble roms too, Pie or Oreo.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] meltwater:
Awesome, helps to know it isn't something terminal. Will update if I manage to get to the bottom of it.

Interesting, not come across it before, very odd behavior. Very glad I don't have to throw the card or return the phone.

I've seen magisk mentioned elsewhere, shall look into it. Does that require root? How easy is the Mi Max 3 to root? That sounds like that should be enough to make it work.

Also thanks for pointing out it is on other roms too, saves chasing down a fix through that. I assume then it does it on MIUI 9 too.

Thanks!
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] SUPERUSER:
Magisk is the new "supersu" standard when it comes to root.

So it is the root per say. Yes you need root. But you root your phone by installing Magisk, its kind of a multi-tool.

You need to unlock your bootloader, if not already unlocked if you bought it that way like I did from Tradingshenzhen.

It will say Unlocked on the bootloader mi splash screen when you turn the phone on if the bootloader is unlocked.

And then you need to properly flash TWRP. Other than that you can stay on stock rom and use Magisk

Magisk thread https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445

ExSDCard Write Access Enabler module thread https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/module-exsdcard-write-access-enabler-t3670428

I see something I did not see before.

In the thread OP mentions:

So with this you can apparently create custom rules for apps that don't support selecting the external SD card path.

Maybe you should look in to that and experiment
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] pinxda:
This bug happened across android 8.0 in various brand.

Since I familiars with ES File Explorer, I solved by root the phone, convert ES File Explorer into System app via Titanium Backup, then everything work perfectly fine. No more 0 bytes copy file.

ES File Explorer still work even I un-root my phone by uninstall Magisk.

If you're really not want to root your phone or any other reason. Just copy file that you want then restart your phone. Copied file will now become usable file.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] meltwater:
My bootloader isn't unlocked and for now I'd rather avoid rooting my phone (may well do so later).

Good to know there are work-arounds, and that my device hardware is ok.

Will have an experiment and see if I can live with it until I have a go at rooting. Even if I do the temp fix of ES explorer.

Thanks for the info and tips.

Hmm i'm getting an SD card tomm for my Mix Max 3, i use the Asus File Manager. I wonder if that problem happnes with other file manager apps. Tried the Samsung Evo and another one and that 0byte bug there. No bueno. :(
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] meltwater:
Yep, looks like it is a solid bug. For now, I'm living with it and use the space I have on internal memory to transfer data to before using a System file manager to transfer to SDcard.

Been trying some app development and now found the "Install via USB" bug.

Again can work around it, but it does spoil debugging with Android Studio.

There are certainly some odd bugs on this phone, I suspect down to Xiaomi going "off plan".

Hi

Has anyone else had an issue with audio quality when using wired headphones through the headphone jack since the Oct Security patch?

I'm on an International BTU 512GB N960F/DS and I've had loads of audio stuttering through Spotify and also while playing local files through Play Music.

If I plug the same headphones into a Bluetooth adaptor and play the same tracks through the phone they play perfectly.

The only difference I can see is in the Sound settings, the UHQ Upscaler seems to be disabled when using Bluetooth.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] p.dixon0:
OK, just in case anyone is interested, it appears that if I adjust the equaliser anywhere from Normal, I get sound crackling over wired headphones.

Because it uses volatile ram if you took the power away completely it would forget everything. You could save power by putting it in flight mode (this switches the phone off) but anyone ringing you would go to answer phone not sure how much that saves but as it does not have to listen for calls it could be quite a bit though
