[OnePlus 6T  Accessories] KOLIOSIS:
The case is a smudge magnet, definitely lacking an oleophobic coating.

Perhaps one of the liquid sealers would help in that regard.

If you're seriously considering buying this case, you might wanna lower your expectations a notch.

It hardly looks premium with the printing on the top and bottom, taping over it would look less premium, akin to the bras once used on the front end of cars....

[MENTION=5400434]el-marino[/MENTION]

One other item worth mentioning:

If you're a fan of the contoured backside,this case negates it completely,it's totally flat on the backside.

Reason I mention it is the renders don't give an accurate real-life look at the case as it's being used.

Most case listings on eBay/AliExpress/etc... are guilty of this,some bordering on ridiculous,not even showing the right phone/case....... :rolleyes:

My apologies if all of this is putting a negative spin on the case,but,just giving an honest appraisal of the case.

It's functional & has a nice snug fit,I give it a 10 there.

However,on the aesthetic qualities,I knock 3 points off on a 1-10 scale for the printing & smudge factor.

Hallo,

I’m looking for the thinnest case to find for the 6t. Don’t wanna get any bulk at the phone and skins are not the best option for me. For the OP6 the were cases like from MNML. But I haven’t found any similar for the 6t.

Does anyone has any tips? Did you find such cases till now?

Best regards.

Can you share some pictures please. Is the back of the case hard or it is just silicone rubber. I am puzzeled between getting this and this one : https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07HXX1177
[OnePlus 6T  Accessories] KOLIOSIS:
The Poetic case is made from TPU (Thermoplasitic Polyurethane),some call it silicone,but,regardless,it's a soft material, (the flexibility is evidenced in the render).

The one you've linked is of PC construction (Polycarbonate),a rigid plastic material on the backside with a TPU outer bumper:

[Honor View 10 Questions & Answers] carloparillo:
Hi everyone,

I have this bug with my Honor View 10 when I perform a call: in the moment I put the phone next to the ear the keyboard enter a freeze status, I cannot press anymore none of the buttons, neither the one to close the call (the red one). I can just take the control again by selecting the ongoing call in the pull-down menù.

The Honor support told me to wait for the next update but I am not so confident to solve the problem as they don't even know the issue itself.

Does anybody have the same bug? May a hard reset restore the issue? :confused:

Thanks everybody for the attention!

[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Oatswesow:
Here's my scenario: I have a Gear S3, a Galaxy Gear and a Note 9 (all U.S.). I have paired both watches to the Note 9, but when I try to setup Samsung Pay on both watches, the app removes the Samsung Pay setup on the watch that's already had Samsung Pay setup on it.

Is there a fix or workaround so that both watches can be paired to the Note 9

AND

have Samsung Pay working on both watches simultaneously?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] ari_yeni:
I have been using Messages 5.0 on my Galaxy S8+ (no root) for a while now, and I decided I wanted to go back to the stock version that came with the phone. So i uninstalled the updates and I got back to the stock version, but for some reason I cannot send text messages. When I press the "send" button, the message in the box literally just disappears. The thing is, when i go back to the Messages 5.0, it works perfectly fine, and using another messaging app such as Google Messages works fine as well. I have already rebooted the device, wiped the cache on my phone, cleared cache from the stock messages , and cleared the data from the stock messages. I do not want to factory reset because it is pretty unnecessary for a minuscule problem. Any help is appreciated because this is frustrating me and I cannot find any other threads anywhere that discuss this issue.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] kanej2006:
As above, in recent days, for no apparent reason I am getting a bad battery drain. After using GSam battery monitor & the in built battery stats, Android System is responsible for 33% battery drain!!!

Any fix or solution? I am rooted with recovery on 8.8.30 MIUI 10.

I do not wish to wipe or flash as my device is perfect in every way, only a battery drain from Android System.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance

Me too, always awake it never goes into deep sleep
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] fendetestasxx:
The same thing happened to me and with the Gsam Battery I verified that I had in a short time thousands of calls to the LocationManagerService. After trying and testing I think that the time widgets that I installed (HD Widgets, Xperia Clock, ..) are due. I have taken them out and now my battery consumption is normal. Anyway, this must be a Miui bug. I spent as much with xiaomi.eu as with Revolution OS.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] kanej2006:
^ Thank you so much guys for the response, but this is so strange because it only started to happen many weeks after using the rom. It was fine as normal then suddenly this battery drain issue started.

Even tried battery hibernation apps/greenify, now difference.

Previously, I used to get 11-12 hours SOT, now only 7 max. Really disappointed...
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] shoukanju:
After prolonged trial and error plus googling. I managed to finally fix my MIUI10 battery drain.

1. Under Settings>Battery & Performance, disable ALL smart scenes.

REASON: smart scene detection causes wakelocks. A MIUI10 bug.

2. Under Settings>My Device>All Specs, click Total Storage 5-6 times to get into Phone Info Testing menu. For both Phone Information1 and 2, set to your local band. Xiaomi.eu uses LTE/UMTS auto (PRL), while some users recommend LTE/WCDMA. [This setting persists until next reboot/airplane mode/network change, then you'll have to set it again. Leave default setting when roaming]

REASON: Default setting enables TD-SCDMA band scanning, which is only used exclusively in China. When disabled, will save some juice as network signal strength fluctuates.

3. Of course check Battery Use of your apps to make sure no rouge apps are keeping your phone awake in the background. Consider adjusting (a) Start in Background Permission, (b) Autostart Permission, (c) locked apps, (d) app battery saver status, and (e) toggle Developer Options>Inactive Apps
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] Rockmadeofrock:
I wasn't able to find any setting called Scenes or Scenarios (saw that name used in another thread) on MIUI 10.3.2.0 global stable. When I open the Battery & Performance menu all I get is Battery Optimization, Power Usage, User Adaptive Battery, Choose Apps (for app battery saver), and Extreme Battery Saver. I also searched for them using the search function. Is this available on all MIUI versions?
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] shoukanju:
In Battery & Performance, click the Settings cog icon on the top right. You would see Scenarios (new name) at the bottom of the next screen. I'm on MIUI 11.0.2 now, and its there.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] Rockmadeofrock:
There is no Settings cog in Battery & Performance. If I go further into Battery Optimization there is one but it also doesn't have a Scenarios option
[Xperia Z3 General] ThemGo:
Hi,

both our Z3 D6603 and Z3TC SGP621 with original MM 6.0.1 firmware 23.5.A.1.291, rooted by shoey63's method and additionally improved by Xposed, have an issue with Google Play services since a couple of weeks (not sure when it started exactly). In some apps like ImmoScout24, Immonet and Outdooractive Premium where actually a (Google) map should be displayed, there is only the message "Google play services are updating" and no map at all. Strangely the app Google Maps itself has no problem at all.

I googled that Huawei devices had a similar issue, but all the tipps like deleting cache and data of app Google Play services or even wiping complete cache partition did not help.

Does anyone have an idea what goes wrong and how to fix the problem?

Thank you.

You're absolutely right.

If you forget flashing the vendor firmware before PE, you'll get a system error 7 when trying to flash the PE ROM.

I just tried to flash the latest PixelExperience_beryllium-9.0-20190205-2051-OFFICIAL and it raises a system error 7 complaining for the missing vendor 9.1 firmware.

According to the https://downloads.akhilnarang.me/MIUI/beryllium/ download page, you will notice that akhilnarang released vendor beryllium V10.1.3.0-9.0 vendor firmware a long time ago (december 2018).

Consequently, for flashing the latest PixelExperience ROM (20190205), I would advise to first flash vendor 9.1 available here: beryllium-9.1.24-9.0-vendor-firmware.zip
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] autisticarvin:
Is it really necessary to flash DFE (step 27)? Thank you.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] d.casper.b:
Thank you so much for the comprehensive guide. I got my Poco F1 yesterday and I have a good idea what I need to do, but there's always some uncertainty.

DFE being the one question I have, but you explained it etc, so it looks like at this point it is recommended, but not necessary as such - if I understand.

Vendor firmware is another question mark for me, but it makes a bit more sense.

Right now, I am just going to look at rooting my phone, once I'm done with that I will start looking at custom ROMS.

One question, which I've not really seemed to find a concrete answer is regarding TWRP. Do you swipe right to allow system modifications?

I almost think that if it's just rooting via magisk you don't need to swipe right. since I don't think magisk touches system (but not sure).

I was thinking to just boot TWRP and flash magisk (and not install TWRP). Then to uninstall root, boot TWRP and flash uninstall zip (maybe that will allow for easy OTA updates if on stock ROM?).
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Cristobal2018:
I suppose it is not necessary anymore with the latest official TWRP release.

I did it myself for 2 reasons : the 1st one is your phone runs much faster without encryption.

The 2nd one is I was not confident in the first TWRP releases which had issues with decryption.

I you root with encryption (~ with no DFE), I would be glad to have your feedback.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] autisticarvin:
I have no plans in rooting my phone. Changing roms is enough for me. Btw, thank you.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Cristobal2018:
Of course, I should have written 'flash' instead of 'root' ;)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Cristobal2018:
Rooting allows the applications to run as root so the only requirements for doing it is having the root permissions. In recovery mode, TWRP already has the root permission so it should be enough.

I can't tell for sure because I did not test it but I would say as long as you don't require to write to the system partition, you don't have to swipe right. Magisk is not installed on the system partition so swiping should not be required.

Installing TWRP while leaving the stock ROM installed is not a good idea.

Indeed, the stock MIUI performs an integrity test at boot time and it restores the stock ROM if a different one is found (like TWRP). At reboot, your TWRP will be overwritten with the stock one.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] CobraStrike:
Thanks for putting together such a comprehensive tutorial! I'm planning to do this with my Pocophone as soon as it comes in.

I'm a total newbie to this stuff, though... I noticed that half of your walk-through involves you using the Linux shell... If I only have access to Windows, can I use the same commands in the Windows Command Prompt or would that not get me anywhere?

You can do it under Windows but installing the ADB drivers can be tricky under Windows whereas it is straightforward under Linux.

Once you managed to install everything under Windows and make it work in fastboot and recovery mode, everything works exactly the same way.

Hi. Is it ok to use a virtual machine for the ubuntu parts (with vmware)? (or do I need a "direct" usb connection) Thanks!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ilampane:
After successfully following the guide, then checking my phone with the app Root Check, it says that my phone is not rooted. The magisk manager gets installed onto my phone, and after upgrading it to full, it says that Magisk isnt installed. However, when doing step 25 during the guide, it says that it installs magisk v18.1 succesfully.

Attempting to do step 26 gives me a ERROR 1:

- Mounting /system/, /vendor
- Device platform: arm64
! Cannot access /data, please uninstall with Magisk Manager
- Unmounting partitions
Updater process ended with ERROR: 1
Error installing zip file '/sdcard/Magisk-uninstaller-20190204.zip'
Updatiting partition details...
...done

Attempting step 27 to install magisk-v18 works fine however and gives me no errors in return.

I will say that I am on windows, and didnt follow the exact instructions for TWRP. Instead I followed the guide on https://xdaforums.com/poco-f1/how-to/xiaomi-poco-f1-unlock-bootloader-custom-t3839405 to get into TWRP.

When attempting to use your instructions, once I load into TWRP the screen becomes unusable for some reason.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jaymin_Vyas:
Am coming from OPO, so somewhat used to flashing, but being a different device, i want to be clear on a few things (will be using Linux for this guide) -

1. You mentioned about pushing things via adb in this thread. But if do want to switch to any other ROM going forward, it should be the regular steps like -

Wipe Phone (Full/Partial - i always prefer Full),

Flash ROM and/or GApps depending on the ROM,

flash Magisk and/or other customisations if needed,

wipe cache & dalvik,

reboot system

- right?

2. Does Pixel Experience ROM take care of the performance issues that are mentioned in AOSP Extended thread?

3. Even when following the steps in your post, if i choose a different ROM, lets say, I choose AOSP Extended itself, even that should be fine i believe? The other steps remaining same?

It might sound noob, but i want to ensure i dont mess up the device right away! :)​
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Cristobal2018:
1. yes, your sequence is ok and it should be the same for any ROM.

2. I met no performance issue since I am using the Pixel ROM. Note that I disabled encryption with DFE. It runs much faster than the stock MIUI ROM.

3. yes, as long as you can access your phone in fastboot mode, you will be able to fix everything.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] guhvanoh:
So what version did you install and where did you get it from? All you need do is install at least beryllium-9.4.15-9.0-vendor-firmware.zip from this link, PE and Magisk. DFE is only needed if you want to run unencrypted. I run encrypted with Magisk 19.0.
