[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] MardukPVP:
Hello,

i have bought a new Xiaomi Mi A2 and thought it would be a really nice idea to flash magisk on it. First everything was alright. I unlocked my bootloader in fastboot with "fastboot oem unlock" and flashed twrp on the b partition. Unfortunately my device broke (don't know why... maybe the unofficial twrp with some bugs or...). So now i have a really big problem, because my twrp recovery is missing as well as the stock recovery. When i try to switch on the mobile i am stuck in bootloop (with the mi logo). Not even the bootloader warning is shown.

Fastboot mode is working but not really nice. Not even the mitu appears, no the display is black (or doesn't show anything.. The device's display is on).

My Mi A2 is recognized by the computer so I considered to flash the stock rom with fastboot.

I thought it would work, but in the mi flash programm i got the erorr: flash devcfg_a error.

Now i can't switch my mobile off, because when I'm holding the power button, it restarts and restarts and restarts... :(

I know i am stupid and maybe have done something wrong, but i would be soooo happy to get some help :)

Thank you so much!

Fastboot flashing unlock_critical

(It will wipe /data)

then flash with mi flash

But before doing that, try just flashing stock boot

Fastboot flash boot_a boot.img

Or boot_b if that's your active slot
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] MardukPVP:
Thank you very much for your answer.

Unfortunately i have wiped everything in twrp before (when it worked) so there's nothing stored on the device.

When i type in critical unlock only a big list of commands appears which can be used.... ?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Nebrassy:
what's the exact command you used?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] MardukPVP:

I am having trouble getting my Microsoft Exchange email to work. The setting used to work before i upgraded. Any thoughts? If i am connected to Activsync, the mail works. If i disconnect activsync, mail wont transmit. Please help here.

I just installed the certificates from my OWA server onto my Dash (as I have had to do from the beginning) and BAM, works great...

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xfiver:
Hi,

I got myself a Samsung Galaxy SM-T900.

it originally would boot up into GREY battery icon and then apparently switch off although I could see the backlight was dimly on.

( So may have battery or USB charging port problems as well)

It was reporting a custom rom state so I thought I would put it back to stock and actually managed to flash it with Odin 3.10 ( which worked i.e. reported GREEN)

Rom file is T900XXSBPL3_T900OXABOH4_HOME.tar.md5 from Sam Mobile.

Although I got a GREEN light from Odin.... on tablet boot up, the tablet reported " Firmware upgrade encountered an issue...……….in Kies and try again"

Kies (2.6) would not connect to the tablet, nor could I do an emergency firmware recovery as no device comes up in the device list.

So I decided to reflash the stock rom with Odin 3.10 which was a bad move. For some unknown reason it stopped flashing at about halfway.

So I restarted the flash and now always get stuck on

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] spaghy_:
Today i encountered a big problem with my Mi A1. After i unlocked the phone in the morning, the home button (the back and recent buttons work) and right side of the screen stopped working completely. I tried to restart the phone many times and look up the issue on google but nothing worked.

Than i tried turning on the "Pointer location" option in dev options, and it showed me, that a perfect portion of right side of the screen doesn't work, when i was sliding my finger around the right side, obviously not in such a perfect line (as seen on the screenshot).

I would like to know, if it's related to me updating to a new security patch the day before, some hardware issue or something else.

I would apreciate any help. :)

[IMG="Screenshot of the problem"]https://i.imgur.com/J1IQZEk.png[/IMG]
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Dead-neM:
Weird... Did you change screen size?

Rebooted?

Are you on stock with magisk etc?

Tell us more
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] spaghy_:
Thank you for your response :)

I didn't really change anything on the phone, when the problem appeared. Once i just unlocked it and the screen side with the home button stopped working.

I'm running completely stock android 8.1.0 with an October 5th security patch. I have updated on that security patch the night before, but i don't really think that this could be the problem... or could it be? I have a crack in my screen too, but it wasn't problem for a long time, since i dropped it months ago and i was living with it completely fine with no problems at all. The only thing i have changed on the phone is just a launcher - Nova.

And even more weird is that it sometimes works. For example last night it started working again, everything was fine and than in the middle of today it stopped working, again. I just locked the phone with the problem gone, unlocked it 5 minutes later and boom... it was back there. I don't understand this at all. Could this be due to some bad hardware connection, like wrongly connected cable etc.?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Dead-neM:
Well i think it's the crack on your screen that mess the touchscreen.

If a factory reset doesn't solve it then it's hardware?

You can have a fully cracked screen and phone will still be usable. And you can have a single crack but badly placed and screen is f***ed up

Try to repair it by yourself or by a professional.

Broken Screen rarely pass with the warranty...

I'm sorry bro.

Still try to factory reset the phone, just in case
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] spaghy_:
Okay, I'll try to reset the phone, but i don't really think it could be the crack, because it happend months ago and worked fine.

Is there any other way, than a factory reset and hardware repair maybe? Because i don't really wanna pay 1/3 of the phone price just for a new screen that doesn't really affect anything. It's just a little crack on the top half of the phone, that doesn't affect the digitizer. (Or it didn't affect it for months)

Alltho thanks for your help. I'll try the factory reset and if it will work, i'll add a new comment.
[Samsung Gear S3] mclaudio:
hi there

i have 2 questions...hope someone can help

1 - is it possivel to remove some of the watchfaces that are comming with the watch?

2 - it is possible to enable activation of the watch only with the bezel?

thank you
[Samsung Gear S3] kangi26:
1 - No you can't

2 - Yes you can :D (It's in the settings), wait ONLY the bezel? You can disable the wake from wrist turn but nothing else
[Samsung Gear S3] PACDEO:
They updated the Gear S3 software to match the OneUI software on the Sport. You still can't delete the default pre-installed watch faces :( . But I there is a "Touch wake-up" function now, so you can turn off the "Watch Always On" setting under watch faces, and then in the Advanced settings, turn off the "Wake-up Gesture setting" and turn on the "Touch wake-up function" that will turn the screen on only when you touch it. Hope that helps!

---------- Post added at 01:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:28 PM ----------

Actually, you can still use the "Watch Always On" if you want to have the low-light versions of the watch face always visible. If you turn off the Wake-up gesture and turn on the touch wake-up function, it will only "FULLY" wake up when you touch it. But if you want the screen totally off unless you touch it, then turn off always on and wake up gesture.

Hi,

I hava a stratos 2 international version.

In the first os versions the clock was recognized by the pc without problems,

but as of version 2.3.5.0 the computer has stopped recognizing the clock.

Yesterday a friend came home with his watch, same version and we could verify that:

1. My clock with his base it is not recognized by the pc.

2. My brother clock is recognidzed automatically with my base or his base.

In other way we try:

1. Clean watch pins

2. Factory reset

Please any help is welcome.

I have been having same problem for so long after one update. It's really frustrating. Nothing seem to fix it. Did u find amy way to fix it?
[Amazfit] lfom:
If you are sure the metallic pins are clean and the cradle is fine, then most probably it's an internal connection issue (hardware). If you press it down firmly and/or twist it a little bit and it doesn't help, then your only solution is using WiFi to connect to watch, see tutorials elsewhere (works with adb, you may want to install PaceOn and FileManager+ to make things easier).

Hello,

just got a LG Rebel from Tracfone.

noticed it does not have Wifi Hotspot in the android settings menu.

does anyone who uses this phone able to use the mobil data on this phone as a wifi hotspot?

Thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Severave:
You can just install any app. Many apps exist in case of phones which do not have the item in the menu. Also, the correct name for this function is called tethering. If it says "mobile hotspot" instead, that probably means it is something installed by the phone service (such as Verizon), an extra software which will be slow and annoying. Android's tethering option is under "extra" or "dot dot dot" etc., underneath the WiFi area in the WiFi settings section from the main settings menu.

Also this website is meant for people who have advanced knowledge, I noticed that basic questions such as this one often get ignored. Some forums are meant for more basic questions, including the manufacturer (LG) or the service official forums, if they are used by the public (of course some manufacturers or service providers will not have good forums or may not be used by anyone).
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] saisallo:
HI, I've a CLT-L29C432 with FW 8.1.0.156(patch3)

I've noticed that now, but in the photo mode only, there is a powerful HDR on by default, and cannot be selected if on or off, the only way to have a "clean" shot, without HDR, is to use the PRO mode.

It works only with main sensor and not with Front camera nor with the tele-zoom camera.

This photo+HDR mode maybe is available by the last firmware update (156-p3) because I never noticed it before.

I don't know if this feature is known or not, so I decided to open a specific thread about this.

I've done some shots to demonstrate the differences

the darker shot is in pro mode ( the nearer light condition to real vision )

the lighter shot is in photo mode (+HDR hidden future) and you can see is a little more blurry than others

the in between shot is in Night mode , less blurry but also with less light and a better color handling.

there is also a shot in HDR mode from other presets page that has less light but it's sharper than photo mode + HDR

I think that this powerful feature is a little ruined in night shots during the camera status " don't move - sharpening your photo" message ( that also usually causes blurry photos also without HDR)

Other shots indoor scene

Are you sure it's not the AI that kicks in and the second picture is not using the night mode as it was triggered as I said by the AI?
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kumar abhishek:
Its not some hidden hdr feature. The iso now jumps all the way to 1lakh in low light hence producing very bright pics. :)
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] davidep85:
This happens only with 10mp camera (never with 40mp camera).

This is because the 10mp camera also use the black and white sensor to retrieve more informations and give you a boosted photo.

I don't like most of the time these photos.

You can't disable this!
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] saisallo:

[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] saisallo:

Oh thats great. Can you share some daylight samples?
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] saisallo:
Yes : I forgot to say that it works only in 10mp (like almost everything)

Photo mode is intended for a sort of point and shot if you don't want this you can use pro mode that has no AI or HDR and you can take very nice auto pictures or twick them manually.... And 40mp as well

PRO mode should be the default mode for an advanced phographer.

What I think that huawei should only let the user be able to set by default the preferred mode ... But not eliminate this hdr future or AI at all
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] saisallo:
Yes sir: enjoy!

[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Magnus3D:
This is actually not HDR although the results look similar. What you are looking at here is the full effect of pixel binning in action, where four pixels are stacked together into one which in effect is boosting the dynamic range of the sensor by some clever algorithms. The end result is that highlights are rescued from being overblown and shadows are also rescued from being too dark. You end up with a evenly balanced exposure which has the same look and feel of a HDR. But this is pixel binning as it should work.

/ Magnus
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] saisallo:
IMHO, pixel binning is the same of hdr: multiple shots are multiple pixels or not? ?
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] all the pugs:
Not sure it's "only" one shot that's calculated into an hdr effect. I have some shots with the Auto HDR effect that have moving subjects. They do show some ghosting around the moving parts. If it was only one shot tonemapped, it wouldn't have any ghosting, no? Also, why would the device tell you to keep it steady if it's only calculating the pixels? It wouldn't need a steady device then. My theory is that it's bursting out a few quick shots to merge.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] saisallo:
I think the same, and I can add that the auto hdr in photo mode has more blur than the standard hdr preset (but more dramatic hdr effect too)
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Magnus3D:
Yes, and no.. technically the end result is about the same using both methods. But i prefer we keep them as separate processes which they are and not blend them all together into a HDR soup. Even though the end result is very similar. :)
