[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] genebopp:
Wow, I never would have thought of the Samsung gear watch interfering. I have the newest one (the one after the s3) and had the same issue with the screen staying awake while on a call. It was the one thing I really didn't like about the phone. Seems like the symptoms are the same Pixel 3xl, verizon, Samsung Galaxy watch and a restart fixes the issue for a while. I just tried what you suggested. Thank you very much for posting your idea.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] rickysidhu_:
I've been dealing with a similar issue, but not exactly,

My screen turns off when I hold the phone against my ear, but the display still seems "active".

My cheek is still bringing the notification area down, toggling my quick settings or even going into the settings app (if my phone was unlocked while I answered a call).

It's been super constant and annoying because one time my flashlight was toggled in an elevator, which was a bit awkward.

Another time my clock app opened and changed my alarm time and then turned it off entirely.

Luckily I could feel the vibration so I knew something was going on but this is a really strange issue.

I have already setup a RMA since the phone has a speaker distortion problem as well, so we'll see what happens once the new device arrives.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] stocovick:
I also have a gear s3 and was having the same problem. I exchanged my first phone because of this as I did not know the watch was causing the issue.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bigdave79:
It randomly happens with both my Gear S3 and my Android Wear device when the "phone calls" option is enabled in the Bluetooth settings. I think there's a bug in the way that the Pixel 3 routes the call. Even though the call is answered on the phone, the device seems to think the Bluetooth connection with the watch is active but the sounds still come out of the phone. You'll notice that when it happens the "Speakerphone" button (in the in call UI) shows the Bluetooth symbol and switching to speakerphone can't be done. Infuriating. Why Google? Why?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] stocovick:
Have you guys updated your S3 to Tizen 4.0? I updated this morning and used the phone many times during the day without any issues. Maybe the problem was on Samsung's side, not Google's.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bigdave79:
Didn't realize there was an update. I'll try it out. But still doesn't explain why it also happens with my Android Wear device.

Edit: so far so good on the Tizen 4 update. Working as intended! I'll update if anything changes.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] suzook:
Having this exact issue. Did your replacement fix it? If so, guess I will rma.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] stocovick:
I am sad to report that the issue still persists :crying:

It has happened many times already after I posted.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bigdave79:
Yeah I spoke too soon. It seemed ok for a bit but now it's happening again. Definitely something to do with how the Pixel is handling Bluetooth connections.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] rickysidhu_:
Still there but it seems like the reason is because of sweep or double tap to wake being enabled. As soon as I turn it off, the issue is gone.

Either way, I just got my OnePlus 6T in the mail today so I'll be setting that up soon. If I end up liking it better, I'll be returning the 3XL for a full refund.

Great Tutorial, thanks [MENTION=6753279]Retrial[/MENTION]!

I wanted to ask if you could add some additional hints, e.g. like you did in response to a question of [MENTION=8655956]InTheY2K[/MENTION] here:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=78100797&postcount=2175

Then I realized, you've already done so. Thanks again!

But I've got some additional questions: :rolleyes:

In step 4 you describe how to clean external sd. In step 5 you advise to clean internal storage. But if you wipe internal storage, all personal data (e.g. downloaded files, music etc) is lost. Wouldn't it be sufficient to delete the same folders as on external sd card and leave the personal folders?

In step 6 you flash an actual lollipop rom, in step 7 modem and bootloader. I thought an actual stock rom comes with modem and bootloader, so that a separate flash of modem and bootloader would not be neccessary. Am I wrong?

As this is a guide for clean flash, one could not expect to find information about a dirty flash ;). But I think, this is the best place to at least leave a hint to a place where this information can be found. I remember [MENTION=1711160]Buff99[/MENTION] has one for his roms. [MENTION=1711160]Buff99[/MENTION], [MENTION=6753279]Retrial[/MENTION] - wouldn't it be a good idea to add this information directly or as a link to this description?

Additional question: When reading the post with my beloved i9505 and XDA Labs I can't see the colour difference in the asterisks, they all look the same. Perhaps you can replace them with additional ones (meaning *, **, ***) or list your remarks with the corresponding number from your main list (meaning 1), 2) etc.)

[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] omniphil:
Hi Guys,

Just moved over from a Xiaomi Mi Max 3. I'm certainly not a notch guy on phones, but it's hard to ignore a 7.2 inch screen.

I have disabled the button navigation at the bottom of the screen to maximize screen real estate, but what I notice is that pretty much every app I run wont use the space beside the camera notch. It will either go "full screen" and leave the time, date, battery etc up there, or it will black all that stuff out. In both cases the apps don't actually use any other that space up there. Google Maps for example, it runs "Full Screen" and the time and date stuff is blacked out but the app wont actually use that space. If you're not using the space for the app why not leave the normal stuff up there?

I'm not sure if this is a limitation of the apps, or the UI itself? With video apps like you tube you can zoom out to take advantage of the extra space, but most app like Chrome don't use any of this space.

I'm scratching my head on this one as maybe this is how things are on "notch" phones?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] casinca:
Hey

Do you have some screenshots of both cases ? i'm not sure i understand you properly. I'm planning to buy the phone but i was expecting a way to force full screen apps normally like on samsung without this kind of issues.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] stestesteste:
I think i always want to see the bar for my messages , time, battery, and signal ,, it doesn't show in videos so that's fine i think most phone always show the top bar that's what it's there for
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] omniphil:
Right, but that's the problem. Fire up Google Maps and turn the phone in landscape mode and that notification bar goes completely black. It's not being used "full screen" by google maps, it just becomes dead space not used for google maps or the notification bar.... You tube can be expanded to use this space. So I think maybe there needs to be an "expand" settings that makes all apps use this by default. Even with YouTube you have to do the expand every time...
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] casinca:
Ah ok i see, On my phone it's turning transparent dark grey on google map for the notification bar. I agree it would be annoying if it's turning completely black even for screen burning.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] omniphil:
Yup, Wasted space... We need to be able to use all the screen :)
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] mouzam:
I don't have mate 20 x yet. But with my previous phones I used to use app called gmd full screen immersive mode. To hide the top and navigation bars to use the whole screen.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] shollywood:
I think it's because alot of apps don't support this aspect ratio.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] maquan:
You can try on the display setting of the notch. Choose "show notch" on the app that you want to run fullscreen
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] stestesteste:
That works perfect thank you now maps is in full with notch:)?

Update ,,,when i screenshot it don't show notch but it does work lol
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] SWBgHz:
You can use ADB to force full-time immersive mode...

adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=*
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] omniphil:
YES! That is perfect, it now uses the whole screen, you can even see the maps under the notification bar.

Thank you!

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] fodder650:
Bought a T-Mobile 6T earlier this week and noticed something odd about it's behavior. When you get calls they only show up as a blue flashing phone next to the notch. Unlike my Oneplus 5 which gives you the caller ID info and answer decline. This adds an extra step to answering a call. More it's just annoying not to see who's calling. I checked my daughter's Pixel 1 with Android 9 and it doesn't do this. So I contacted Oneplus support this morning. First it was through their chat who told me it was because of the inscreen fingerprint reader. Which is pretty funny. I'm a help desk manager and I love it when first levels have a tidbit of information they refuse to let go of and he wouldn't let go of. He ended with "I'll give this information to the ROM team". Next I called support and we went most of the steps I had done and one I hadn't, clearing cache, to see if it helped. Nothing helped . So it's being escalated.

So my questions are simply - Has anyone else with a 6T seen this?

If you have is there a way to get it to show the proper called ID screen like it should have?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] coolguy:
Yes noticed same on my 6t from oneplus. Need full screen view and more detailed caller ID.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] justibasa:
I downloaded the Google dialer and it fixed that issue. Just check out the Google dialer thread.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] fodder650:
So now I'm dealing with Oneplus level 2 on this issue. When the phone is locked there is no info on the screen. What I also found is that if the notification screen is up on the lockscreen it won't show that a call is coming in either.

It's good to hear it's not just my wife's phone doing this.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] fodder650:
Found the solution on the Oneplus forums and this works! This solved both the lockscreen issue and the blue notification icon behavior.

Go to Phone > App info > Notifications > Incoming Calls [Tick and tap to open detailed options > Behaviour -> Change it to Make sound and pop up on screen.

It solved this issue for me.

Also make sure you set ongoing call notification - Behaviour - Show silently to avoid additional popup on call screen. After this it will only be available if you scroll it from status-bar.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilolilo27:
Hi everyone,

Thought you may have an idea about the following:

Google automatically disables the Google News app in a few countries (Spain, Denmark). The app can be re-enabled on the play store but always ends up disabling itself after a while.

I have tried many things on my rooted Oneplus 6 w/Magisk:

- made Google News a system app

- tried a workaround for Google Feed as per this XDA Article

- changed my Google and Play Store countries

- locked the app in the multitasker

......

= No dice, Google keeps disabling itself after a while. Weirdly enough, my Google News app works fine on my Essential Phone or Xiaomi Mi Pad 4.

Would anyone haven any idea for a workaround? I was thinking maybe disabling Google News apk signature?

Thank you all

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] wilfem:
I have this Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 (GT-N5100), which had been working quite well before, (including screen mirroring), but I abandoned it for a while. I later decided to be making use of it with the Samsung Allshare Dongle with me, but it started giving me this 'Screen mirroring could not work because if Hardware problems'. I browsed out the solution for that, and got it rooted, so as to fix it, using the buil.prop Es File Manager stuff.

But after all these, It plugs in etc... and turns on, but my tablet still says a "A Screen Mirroring update has been downloaded. Restart Screen Mirroring to update".

I have restarted the dongle severally, so also the tablet too, all to no avail, and I really need to make this work.

Any assistance towards this would be greatly appreciated

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Jager:
Can someone confirm if this issue exists on their device?

I live in an area with no cell service so I put my device in airplane mode and use WiFi Calling. This worked great for my OnePlus 5T. Now with my 6T I get very heavy battery drain when I do the same. Somewhere between 2 and 4 percent an hour. If I have good cell reception and airplane mode off I don't get any standby drain, like it should be. I have attached a screenshot of the drain while my phone was in standby. The red boxes highlight when it was in airplane mode with WiFi Calling.

I would like to figure out if it is just my device with the issue or if everyone is affected. I am on MetroPCS if that makes any difference.

Trying to figure out if this has to do with Magisk, or maybe my DTIM and Beacon intervals I set in my router. No apps are holding wakelocks, phone is active less than 5% when screen off. I will factory reset if a few people state that they do not have this issue.

Can someone reproduce these steps and let me know if you get heavy standby drain?

1. Enable WiFi Calling.

2. Turn airplane mode on.

3. Turn WiFi back on.

4. Make sure you are connected to WiFi Calling.

5. Check current battery level.

6. Turn screen off and leave phone for an hour or more.

7. Check to see if battery went down more than 1%.

Thank you!
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Jager:
In case anyone else has this issue it seems that the heavy drain was due to a DTIM interval of 50 that I had set on my access point. Setting it back to the default of 1 seems to have stopped the heavy standby drain.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Percy247:
I was thinking of buying a OP6T and using WiFi calling as I have no cell/4G coverage at home to try and avoid standby drain issues I have had with previous android phones. Stupid question, why do you need to enable aeroplane mode? Does the phone not switch automatically to WiFi calling when it finds no cell signal like iPhones do? Surely forgetting to turn off aeroplane mode causes problems. What are your experiences in general with WiFi calling on this phone? What sort of battery drain are you looking at overnight using WiFi calling? Do you have any other tips for minimising standby drain when you have no cell coverage?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Jager:
I enable airplane mode to prevent the phone from draining looking for cell service that it will never find. It will automatically switch to WiFi-calling but it will still constantly scan for cell signal just wasting battery, all phones operate like this.

Wi-Fi calling works great for this phone. The only issue I have is that MMS for T-Mobile/MetroPCS does not work. Calling and SMS work 100%.

I usually loose between one and three percent batter overnight (about six to eight hours) with airplane mode on with Wi-Fi on and Wi-Fi calling connected.

To minimize standby drain with no cell service just put your phone in airplane mode and then turn Wi-Fi back on so that Wi-Fi calling connects. This tip would work with pretty much every phone.

I hope this helped!
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Percy247:
Thanks for the information. Did WiFi calling work automatically on your phone or did you have to contact your airtime carrier to set it up? Can you please confirm that with aeroplane mode on you can make/receive phone calls and send/receive sms messages. I need to stay in touch and have good battery life, not one at the cost of the other. I don’t really send mms messages so that is not a problem. What is the DTIM interval you mention on your router/AP and how does this affect the phone? I will be choosing between OPT6 and the P20 Pro and I am concerned about brightness levels on OPT6 as screen seems very dim. I understand google has made changes to the brightness slider in android Pie but I had to have the brightness at 100% where normally it would be at about 50-60% on other phones. Is this something you find a problem or does the adaptive brightness learn your habits?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Jager:
WiFi calling worked right away with my phone provider, MetroPCS. All I had to do was use their app to set my E911 number for emergency purposes, I am in the US by the way. Some carriers may have to contact their support to enable the feature for your account, I cannot say for any other carriers than MetroPCS.

I can confirmed that airplane mode with Wi-Fi calling works 100% for calling and SMS. The MMS issue seems to just be an issue with the US carriers T-Mobile and MetroPCS from what I have seen. Just make sure you turn Wi-Fi back on after enabling airplane mode.

You can look up what the DTIM interval is on Google if you are interested in it. Basically its how often the router will include a message to wake up the Wi-Fi on your phone to process messages. I had mine set to 50 or 100 beacon intervals and that was causing high standby drain. Pretty much every router defaults that setting to one so you shouldn't have to worry about that. I currently have mine set to three with no issues.

As for the brightness slider it works great for me. I think it's a little on the right side most of the time, some people say it's too dark sometimes, it's all subjective to the person and how they use their phone. Personally I think the new brightness slider is a huge improvement over the old versions. You have a lot more control of the brightness at lower levels so you are able to better set your phone in low light environments. Also the screen gets plenty bright at 100%. I have not had issues using my phone outdoors in bright sunlight. As for learning your habits with the brightness, it does seem to do that to some extent but don't expect it to be magically right all the time.
