[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] AllTheWay:
yes, by reading Dutty's thread. I understand your concern as these post come up everyday and the fact that the question doesn't get answered right away usually means two things.

1.) already been answered

2.) No solution exist

I would actually prefer the question to be asked 10 times in Dutty thread then creating a whole new thread about a simple problem that has nothing to do with ROM development. This is a software related issue.

Honestly the search button is your best friend. I guarantee this question has been asked before.

If somebody simply posted the solution to every problem when somebody created a new thread do you realize how many new threads would have been created and then the spoon feeding would continue as it does.

I also appreciate your concern for coming up with new ways to solve the problem but creating a new thread about a existing thread is not going to solve them problem its just going to clutter up the already cluttered Kaiser ROM Development thread.

I second that. However, I'm using Dutty's Apr01 Hybrid and having major sound profile issues - sometimes muting itself, but sometimes turning itself up from muting! If anyone has any tips, we're hanging out here (post 1544).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Edvard_Greig:
I can definitely understand the desire to reduce threads, just to be clear, my suggestion was to create just a couple additional threads in key topic areas. That way you reduce the main thread by a factor of that number, and make each of the appropriate topic threads easier to search through etc. Those threads could be linked in the first post of Dutty's and it would be straightforward.

I'll keep hunting around and searching though.

Heh, and now that the thread as really been derailed it should probably be closed :)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deepak_HK:
Hi. I own a Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro (2016) (SM-A910F/DS) with Android 8.0 (August security patch). It is now out of warranty. I want to root it. I do have prior experience in rooting my secondary Android phone but this phone is my daily driver and hence want some doubts cleared before attempting to root it using Odin. Following are the questions I need answers for:-

I am just going to root my phone to do some small scale customisation. I don't want to flash a custom or stock ROM. Some sources on the internet say that simply rooting the phone won't trip its KNOX flag while others say it will. What is the truth?

If indeed the KNOX flag gets tripped, will I ever be able to use Samsung Pay on my phone again?

If the KNOX flag doesn't trip, will Samsung Pay work on a rooted phone?

The firmware.mobi site hasn't yet updated the SM-A910F's firmware version to that of Android 8.0. My phone had received the Oreo update on 18th October, 2018. Can I still root my phone using whatever latest CF-Auto-Root package I get from there?

How to know if my phone is encrypted? I am confused about this because I haven't manually enabled any kind of encryption on my phone but since there is so much caution regarding rooting an encrypted phone, I don't want to take any chance.

So, these are the 5 questions which I want satisfactory answers for before I root my phone. A good explanation which will ward off my anxiety will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance! :)

I understand your frustration but, please remember that developments for devices sometimes take a while before any developments begin to emerge. This is especially true for many Samsung devices too.

Also, the more members who request for a device the better. I can only encourage you to also request for the A9 Series device within the thread from the link that I had provided you with (the last one on my previous post).

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RevoComputers:
Yes, rooting your phone with CF / TWRP will trip Knox and disable Samsung Pay. Google Pay however will work on a device that has been returned to stock, but not one that has active root. Since it's looking for root as opposed to a Knox bit, this can probably be masked pretty easily if you wanted to use it on a rooted device.

Looking on firmware.mobi, I see 3 releases already for CF on Android 8.0 for your phone.

And your phone most definitely is encrypted. Any Samsung with Android 7.0 from the factory is encrypted. The exception is devices that were running Android 6 or lower that have been upgraded to 7+ and weren't encrypted by the user beforehand.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] kai-dj:
I unlocked the bootloader and rooted my honor 6x with magisk. Now I'm confused, what could cause relocking the bootloader, or non-functional twrp, or no root…

I'm most interested, if there are any dead ends – no way back to unlocked bootloader etc. (security patch level by google?).

My former phones did not receive any updates – so that "problem" is new to me ;)

OTA Updates – I see, that one needs to un-root and go back to stock recovery for OTA-Updates. Do I have to avoid them? (Does bootloader get relocked, can I simply reflash twrp and magisk after?)

Custom roms – I get, that one can reflash (older?) stock rom – does bootloader stay unlocked?

Oreo Chinese/Indian – rootable? Stays unlocked? (Bonusquestion: downsides re-branding from European L21 to Indian/Chinese? Possible to go back to L21?)

anything else to think about, to preserve unlock/root-goodies etc.?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] :
All your questions have the same answer. Bootloader cannot be relocked simply. Only you can do that or if you use HWOTA 8 to rebrand/ rebrand in general. In order to receive OTA updates, you just need to unroot via Magisk manager, reflash stock recovery and you are good to go. However there is a much simpler method available If you want. For that download the latest Full-OTA for your model from Firmware Finder app and then flash it through Hurupdater. More detailed instructions in the relative thread. Just search for Hurupdater. And lastly if you want to flash a custom ROM go for OpenKirin. They are the easiest to flash and have stock camera. Or you could Upgrade to Android 9 by flashing Pixys for Hi6250 devices by Askucio Droid. Detailed instructions in relative threads.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] kai-dj:
Thanks!

…so I concluded that I should not worry too much about losing "root-goodies". Thanks for the infos! =)

As for OpenKirin – they kinda confuse me regarding versions – there's omnirom beta 3 & 3.1, resurrection 3 & beta 2, and lineage 5 – but they're all based on Android 7? Or Oreo?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] :
Oreo. Always use latest version. And all of them are stable so don't worry. Also all of them are different ROMs each with its own advantage.

Resurrection Remix: Best in terms of customization and features. Good battery life. Recommended.

LineageOS: No Customization. Best Battery Life of all.

Omni ROM: Sweet Spot between LOS & RROS. Customization and battery life though Customization are not as good as RROS and same goes for battery life.

This is a serious problem with the software, but a intented one. Really makes me think about whether I keep this phone or not.

This video adresses the problem at minute 3:20.

Also the flickering of the display is a issue for sensitive users. This is the most flickering oled display I've seen so far. Adressed at minute 2:55

I really hope Huawei adresses and fixes this strange programmed behaviour. But I'm afraid they won't, because the Mate 10 Pro and P20 Pro also have this automatic brightness limiting.

Check whether the light sensor is working. The screen brightness may not adjust properly if the light sensor is covered by other objects.

Please adjust the screen brightness if you think the screen is too bright or too dark. Go to Settings and select Display > Brightness.

Please check whether the AUTO switch in the Brightness level menu is enabled. If the AUTO switch is not enabled, the screen brightness may fail to adjust automatically. You can go to Settings > Display > Brightness level to enable the AUTO switch
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] cordonbleu:
Dude, this is so off topic. Has nothing to do with the sensor. It is software.

Pie stable i installed before using adb sideload OTA file (B2N-322C-0-00WW-B01-update.zip) from this thread

Before some days i have notification with OTA October update, but instalation after download failed(screenshot), tryed several times and on more different wifi connection...

Then i also try adb sideload file B2N-322D-0-00WW-B01-update.zip (from same thread as before install Pie stable) and too failed, this method show more info(screenshot):

"Package is for source build 00WW_3_22C but expected 0001_3_22C

Installation aborted"

In Settings/System/AboutPhone/AndroidVersion i have right build_number: 00WW_3_22C (screenshot)

Rename the package to B2N-322D-0-00WW-B01-322C-0-00WW-B01-update.zip

Put in root of internal storage, go to dialer and dial *#*#874#*#*

If it can't find the file, use the original name and re-dial.

I hope it works, please confirm so others can use it.

Hard reset won't solve it. Do not bother
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] whoknowshimself:
I might have a clue on this. I upgraded to Pie from a rooted state (the OTA allowed me exceptionally to upgrade from Oreo to Pie and I said why not!). Now after installing Magisk Manager I noticed that Magisk is already installed! This might be the reason behind this annoying error.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] k3dar7:
ok, i go try OTA dial update after install Magisk ;)

edit: same as without Magisk, failed at 17%...
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] whoknowshimself:
Of course it should fail. What I mean is it fails because we don't have stock boot. Like in Oreo when it was not possible to use OTA with patched boot, it is not available for Pie. They just made it available for Oreo to Pie update and that has messed everything up.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] ganja_guru:
I was on an unlocked bootloader with Magisk installed and encountered the same update failed error. I tried uninstalling Magisk via total uninstall and ended up soft bricking the phone, unable to apply any OTA update. The firmware flashing tool also did not work. The good news was I was still able to access Download Mode and Fastboot mode. I ended up sending it to the service center after relocking the bootloader and they flashed the official firmware at no charge. The phone then updated to Pie on first boot after downloading the update, and then wanted to update to the October update after a restart. The weird thing is the October update failed again, inspite of locked bootloader and no root! However, when I checked the phone few hours later, the update seems to have gone thru just fine. Not sure why this October update is a bit wonky. I agree with the above poster; not having patched boot is the issue here. However, we should be able to get this by extracting payload.bin and using magisk to patch the file.

For now, I am back on a locked bootloader and no root. Awaiting more stability in the unlocking/rooting scene before I try again. Unless Nokia releases official bootloader unlock, I will have to firmware flash back to Oreo, as both A/B partitions are occupied by Pie and the hack used to unlock the bootloader has already been patched on Pie.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] whoknowshimself:
Hi. Thanks for the input and your detailed comment. The thing is there is no service centre here in my country! So I should do everything my own. But may I ask how you relocked the bootloader?
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] ganja_guru:
Sure, I followed the instructions here https://www.techmesto.com/lock-nokia-android-bootloader/ . However, if there is no service center in your country and you don't plan to do a warranty claim, I've read that relocking the bootloader will prevent you from using the firmware flashing tool.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] mrcet007:
I got a brand new Pixel 2 xl today manufactured in April 2018.

My observations about the display

It definitely have some mild graininess on pure white color. You can observe it if you take it close to your eyes. I used the Display Tester app to get white background and test this.

There is a very mild blue tint when looked at off axis.

The white doesn't really appear pure white when compared to Oneplus 6T display.

I compared this with my friend's Oneplus 6T displays and 6T didn't have any of these issues.

My question is, does everyone have graininess and blue tint issues to a minor extent? Has anyone got a pixel 2 xl display without any issues?

Could you post your photos of display on a white background?

Should I return my phone and try my luck again?

I've got a barely visible blue tint off axis, but my display is soooo grainy. I've never had a display this grainy. Can't post photos. I don't think you should return it because there is always the chance of it becoming worse, and blue tint is just an oled thing.
