Hi..

I am after the silly little piece of white plastic that fits in the earpiece of a P3300 or MDA Compact 3 that allows the led indicators project/shine through to the front of the phone...

I can't find anyone with one...so i'm asking nicely to all bods on here who may just have one...

PS... screws off the back wouldn't go amiss either...

Thanks...

[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] alexdon2:
background noise issues

Call quality is fine until there is background noise (TV, work colleagues chatting, etc - not even at a live concert). That's when my voice starts to break up and is not understandable on the other end.

Also, it seems like the Razor Phone 2 has trouble keeping a network connection, or reestablishing connection to a new base station. When on the move, the phone constantly drops out, both phone conversations and data (Internet). Keeping the same network as my old Samsung Galaxy S6, the Razor has many more 'blind spots' to networks and has more trouble re-establishing connectivity.
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] Mr_Mooncatt:
Mine has been the exact opposite. My last phone started having major connection issues, but my PH2 is getting signal in areas I never did before. Both phones were on Verizon, so maybe it's a carrier/band use issue for you?

As for call quality, I'd rate it the same. I primarily use a high quality Bluetooth headset, so not really going to be a change in voice quality.
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] moshe_lm:
I was saw that the codec AMR-WB isn't enabled on this phone. maybe it make some of the problems.

WiFi hotspot (tethering) doesn't appear to work on at&t Go-phone pay as you go. As soon as I upgraded my SIM card to my family share plan, now it works. It wouldn't even attempt to turn on. The screen would just blink and then nothing... WiFi speed is definitely top notch. My home WiFi 5g will download large files in a blink... downloaded a 90mb app in less than 2 seconds...and installed it in less than 5. crazy fast. 2.5g I got 60mb/s. YouTube streaming 4k videos, doesn't skip a beat. Even if you turn the playback speed to 2x, neither the wifi or the phone stutters. Overall, exceptionally better than my last phone, that was only a year old.
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] XDA_RealLifeReview:
We know how much you like to stream, ahem, "videos", and so cellular data is mega-important. Rate this thread to express how you think the Razer Phone 2's LTE performs. A higher rating indicates that it's fantastic: throughput is excellent and signal strength is top-notch.

[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] Same Old Dude:
I have noticed periodic Data drops on the phone. I am using AT&T.
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] efasser:
Had to call AT&T, especially since they picking RP2. As result:no results, I pretty much don't have LTE, and constant connection issues plus dropping service.
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] Same Old Dude:
Yeah. I have a second SIM card that is for my work phone from AT&T and when I place it into the RP2 the same thing happens.

This might be an issue with the unlocked variant. :/

It's still not a deal breaker hahaha
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] efasser:
Yep, absence of bloatware , and lightning fast phone beats good data every time ?
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] Warrior1988:
You dial *#*#4636#*#* and then you can change the network mode
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] Same Old Dude:
Thanks for the suggestion, however when I enter this sequence on the phone app it just clears itself and does not bring up anything.

I also tried hitting the call button after I type the sequence and an error pops up stating that there is a connection problem and it is an invalid MMI code.

I'll look up online to see what it means and update you all if I find anything.
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] CurtisMJ:
It's one of the magic dialer codes thats supposed to work on most Androids I believe. It's a sort of service menu. Razer seems to have disabled most of them in the production builds. *#06# is the only one I've found so far which still works (probably more out of necessity though)
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] Same Old Dude:
So I found out there was an error with the code mentioned above.

Enter: *#*#4636#*#*

This will take you to settings to make the changes to SIM card.

Now the question lies, what should be changed to optimize cellular connection?
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] Warrior1988:
Edited post actually the dail code is *#*#4636#*#*

---------- Post added at 07:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:48 PM ----------

I have AT&T and mine is TD-SCDMA/CDMA/UMTS

You can play around with it try LTE/UMTS auto prl you might have to turn data on and off for it to take effect.

[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] Same Old Dude:
Alright this is what I have done so far and it looks promising! :)

1. Entered the code *#*#4636#*#* in the stock phone app on the dial

- from here I changed the following setting in the phone information tab

-- Set Preferred Network Type > LTE/TD-SCDMA/UMTS

-- Clicked on the top right corner (3 Dots) > Select Radio Band > United States

2. Now I also went to the AT&T Support site for phones that are not provided by them and they recommend to make some changes on the phone's network settings as well. Here is the Link to the Changes that need to be made...

https://www.att.com/esupport/article.html#!/wireless/KM1218306?gsi=QMyE1Pw

Here is a brief summary of what I have on my end:

- Go to Settings > Network & Internet > Mobile network > Advanced > Access Point Names

-- Here you will want to add an additional access point settings by clicking on the plus sign on the top right

-- The Parameters should be as follows:

--- Name: NXTGENPHONE

--- APN: NXTGENPHONE

--- Proxy: Not Set

--- Port: Not Set

--- Username: Not Set

--- Password: Not Set

--- Server: Not Set

--- MMSC: http://mms.mobile.att.net

--- MMS proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net

--- MMS Port: 80

--- MCC: 310

--- MNC: 410

--- Authentication Type: Not Set

--- APN Type: default,mms,supl,hipri

--- APN Protocol: IPv4

--- APN Roaming Protocol: IPv4

--- APN Enabled

--- Bearer: Unspecified

--- MVNO Type: None

--- MVNO Value: Not Set

--Once all the settings are in place make sure you select the new profile you just created.

As of now, I am able to get LTE+ and in the past 3 to 4 hours my signal has not dropped at all! :)

I hope this helps you all
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] Renovatio33:
What happens here is pretty weird. LTE on band 20 works like a charm. LTE+ is good. LTE on band 3 doesn't work.

It is connected to network, I have good signal and I can easily get the list of connected towers, but I have no data and so I cannot surf the internet.

I tried to edit the build.prop by disabling CDMA and enabling LTE on GSM, I changed the default network. Still, I got no luck.

Anyone experiencing something similar?
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] efasser:
Were you able to get WIFI calling with this settings?
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] Same Old Dude:
Sorry for the late reply,

I did not. I want to say that the carrier is blocking that feature :(
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] seragnn43:
J'ai remarqué des pertes de données périodiques sur le téléphone. J'utilise AT & T.
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] darveniza:
Did you have to select re provision or anything else to make settings be set
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] Same Old Dude:
No. It might take some time for the settings to apply.

I would suggest a reboot after the settings are placed
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] den_hart:
Hello everyone. So if we are experiencing weak or dropped signals with the Razer Phone 2, what preferred network type should one use that is with Verizon. I already contacted them to change my profile to a CDMA less account so I can receive texts and voice mails.
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] derekdauzat:
try (*#800#) it should bring up a warning.. enter.. you'll see a list of ...... choose fist option (logkit) you want to find (function switch) select it.... then you will be able to enable voice over LTE and Wi-Fi calling has other options also..
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] Teremir:
I hate to be too much of a pain in the rear, what would you do to setup APNs for straight talk? It won't let me even name the APN so it won't let me save it. Let alone add any other information.
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] Mr_Mooncatt:
When I activated on Verizon two weeks ago, I didn't have to specify being set as a CDMAless device or do anything special. I did have a minor hiccup, which I now think was due to not having a mobile data signal in my home preventing the new SIM card from fully provisioning. Once I got a mobile data signal, LTE+ popped up on the notification bar and has worked ever since. I checked and I was set to TD-SCDMA/CDMA/UMTS by default.

As for signal and reliability, it's been awesome so far. I'm now holding a data connection in areas my last phone would lose all tower connection for a few miles. Bandwidth has been much faster as well. I wasn't complaining about 20Mbps mobile data speeds on my last phone, but easily hitting double that on the RP2 and have seen up to 100Mbps. HD/VoLTE is also functioning. The only downsides are no video or Wi-Fi calling (unless there's a hack to do so on Verizon's network?).

Razer Phone 2 speakerphone

I've had my Razer Phone 2 for almost a week. I used the speakerphone for the first time during a call today and it was very very low and the person on the other end kept cutting out. I actually had the phone up to my ear with the speakerphone turned on and it sounded almost like a regular conversation, but still at lower volume. All of the volume bars are turned up to maximum. Does any one have any suggestions on how to fix this? I do like the Razer Phone 2 but I do have some issues with it. Hopefully the developers here will continue to support it. Thank you in advance for any one that may be able to help me.
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] 潇霄小云:
The earpiece is in the upper right corner. Usually I use the headset to answer the phone, my Motorola mx30 (mx30 in the moto z2f compatibility explosion) compatibility is very good (and razer dac). others. I think the speaker is good, kill my friend's red magic (red magic is very noisy, harsh), in a quiet environment, the experience is very good, playing games is great.

What is amazing is that the call is not very loud. Mmmmmmm, maybe razer afraid of others eavesdropping (I have already opened the outside, I will care about eavesdropping?
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] brucethemoose:
The speakerphone is suprisingly quiet considering how loud RP2 speakers can get in other media. They're good speakers, and this is coming from someone who's used to an HTC 10...

Maybe this is something that can be patched?
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] Cellendril:
People on the other end can not hear me since MR0 while using speakerphone.
[Razer Phone 2 Real Life Review] nabnab25658:

Is anyone working on a fix for this issue? I love this phone, but this is annoying considering that I know the phone can be much louder.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Amos91:
Hi all,

I've got a OP5 currently running 5.1.0 which is unlocked, rooted & encrypted. I've tried to flash 5.1.6 on the stock recovery but it always says the installation has failed.

Going from my memory I tried the latest versions TWRP versions by Codeworkx and Bluspark, however when flashing they both result in an error code 7 and it aborts.

Does anyone know how I can simply get this phone to update? I'm hesitant to wipe data / system files in case I cannot flash the rom...
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] shadowstep:
That's because OOS 5.1.0 doesn't have Treble implementation (i.e. there isn't a separate vendor partition that is needed for it), whereas OOS 5.1.6 has Treble implementation (i.e. it needs a separate vendor partition to work properly and if it fails to find one, it'll not install only and error out).

You should try flashing OOS 5.1.4 over OOS 5.1.0 (which, I think, creates the vendor partition) and then try flashing OOS 5.1.6. Basically, the update path should be OOS 5.1.0 -> OOS 5.1.4 -> OOS 5.1.6. If it still doesn't work, try OOS 5.1.0 -> OOS 5.1.4 -> OOS 5.1.5 -> OOS 5.1.6. Should work. :)

Good luck! :good:
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Amos91:
Spot on thank you! Used the MSM tool in the end to force flash it to 5.1.2 and remove all traces of root etc. Then OTA updates it to 5.1.4 automatically as you said. And I've now just sideloaded 5.1.6 through the OTA updater.

Thanks again!
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] shadowstep:
Thought as much. No worries! Glad you got it sorted out. :)
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] AndroidN-addict:
Hello people of the xda forms recently one of my family members upgraded to android Oreo on there moto g5 plus yay but after that it went all down hill from there the phone when they are using it for basic things like browsing the web and watching YouTube it can easily hit 45 degrees Celsius in most of the CPU cores not making it very comfortable to hold also after the update the battery drains faster

This is my first post on the xda forms so sorry for any conveniences
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] bazinga137:
There must be an app or something constantly running and draining battery, check the battery stats and it might give you a hint at what's up.

My guess is that whatever it is, backing up and doing a factory reset should solve your troubles. It might seem like a hassle but it usually is the best way of solving issues, especially after an upgrade.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] AndroidN-addict:
She doesn't want to do a factory reset and could it be caused by the microSD card in the phone
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] Wolfcity:
Very unlikely. But that's easy to test, just remove the SD and check if it's getting better.

I also think a factory reset will be the most useful way.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] austin_5118:
I have an s9 snapdragon variant running 8.0, September 1st security patch. Downgrading firmware and rooting is a no go due to limitations on my device.

The lowest I can get to is 12.6.89 for my play services.

I always get "App not installed" when trying to install an older version. Package disabler pro won't even list Google play services to try and get rid of it as best as possible for a clean installation.

I've tried everything I could possibly think of. Surely someone has figured a work around for newer devices with no stock uninstall option, and uninstalling updates only going so far, right? There has to be something better... Am I missing anything? I'm willing to collaborate with others in finally fixing this
