[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Juuuul:
Hello all,

So I am really confused on how to remove TWRP. After a factory reset I thought TWRP would already be gone but apparently it didn't.

How do I do this and will I have to once again wipe everything?
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] AsItLies:
Just flash the stock recovery image over the twrp image. You may have to dig around for the recovery image, possibly even have to extract it from the kdz.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Juuuul:
Thank you for your reply!

So I've got the kdz file (H87020c_00_OPEN_EU_OP_0817.kdz) and tried an extraction tool (LG Firmware Extract) to extract the data. First it changed the .kdz file to .dz file. Then there were a bunch of .bin files inside the .dz file. I extracted it all. But I've no idea what to do now and how to make it an .img file.

I've got two recovery.bin files out of the .dz file:

- recovery_10246.bin

- recoverybak_20614.bin
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] AsItLies:
Check this thread out, sounds like it should work for any kdz file.

It unfortunately doesn't work, it seems to have the same problems as some in the thread mentioned.

Can't I just use the .kdz file to do a clean install which automatically wipes the TWRP?

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] jasonw3:
I have a Galaxy S9 (SM-960U) purchased from T-Mobile, but unlocked and running with an AT&T SIM (among others, at times). Up until today, the phone was running the stock T-Mobile ROM which received various software updates on a monthly or every two month interval. I've installed them as they were released (while running various non-T-Mo SIM cards) and the latest was October 1, 2018. Today, I clicked the "Software Update" function and saw that a new update was available. When it installed and restarted, I noticed that the phone was running an AT&T branded ROM, along with the typical AT&T bloatware (e.g., CNN, Groupon, Amazon, AT&T-specific apps) that was not previously installed.

The other thing I noticed was that the phone now is only connecting to HSPA and HPSA+ networks, whereas before it would also connect to LTE.

I'm not sure why I suddenly received and installed an AT&T-branded ROM today when my S9 and all of my previous devices were fine running the T-Mo ROM and receiving updates as they were released. Does anyone have any insights as to what caused this change and whether future ROM updates will be carrier-specific based on the inserted SIM? In the past month I've used SIMs in Vietnam and Japan and it seems odd that ROMs would suddenly be based on the carrier of the day.

Also, any ideas about restoring LTE service? I've tried removing the SIM and powering off the device a few times, but no dice. This was a network/account-problem when I initially ported over to AT&T from T-Mo which took a lot of troubleshooting at the store (unsure of actual root cause), but it seems odd that a software update on the device would undo that.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] dbrohrer:
The latest update (3BRJ5) is BYOD firmware. With B firmware, a carrier sim will change the csc of your phone to match the network you are connected on. Good luck getting LTE back, I have no idea on that.

*#*#4636#*#* entered into phone dial. That will allow to select preferred network type in device information.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] skyethur:
you have to change APN setting on the menu to reflect AT&T network. let me know if it works by changing APN.. I used to have S9+ tmobile and I was waiting for this BYOD update but i traded in my s9+ already =/ i have note 9 unlocked now..
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] jasonw3:
The issue required a visit to the AT&T store, where they replaced the SIM and reset some of the network features on the back end of my account. This required a call to the retail technical support team and about 45 min. No settings were changed on the phone. The APN settings were already configured correctly (which I had confirmed as a part of initial troubleshooting).

The phone works fine now, though some features like AT&T HD Voice and the AT&T Call Protect app still don't work. I've tried contacting them twice about it and they opened a ticket but it hasn't helped. These aren't features I used before so I don't really care.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] skyethur:
Keep in mind though that HD voice only available to postpaid At&t only not prepaid and they do required special sim card for hd voice but since you already changed sim card then the problem is not the sim card. You can try and dial #*#*4636*#*# and see if Volte is provisioned.. I wish i had my s9+ from tmobile but i dont have it anymore i was waiting for that byod software update.. Hd voice should work on BYOD custimization update on at&t
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] beltama2:
Hello,

First of all send a greeting to everyone since I am new to the forum.

I explain the problem to see if someone can help me.

I have a xiaomi redmi 4 (sorry if this is not thr prime, but I cant see the device in the list) with "fake" rom from the Chinese store. I know because the version ends in 0.0.

The problem is that when you connect the phone to the PC it does not do anything, it just charge (previously it worked well and the pc recognized it, also going out in the curtain the options to select load, mtp, etc.

I have tried several things and nothing works.

Probe activating usb debuging, with the app usb settings (which seems to open those options but quickly closes and the screen goes blank) and more different things but nothing worked, still only charging.

In the device manager it does not appear, neither as a connected device or as a connected device but without the drivers (I have the drivers well because before it worked correctly).

It all started when the battery stopped charging correctly, the battery charged very slowly. With the ampere app you can see that the charhe was very weak, no more than 100mah. Clean the usb port, probe with other cables and chargers, other pc but nothing to charge faster as usual.

Then I decided to restore the phone to factory but continued the same, charging very slow.

Later I decided to put a global rom using miflash with mode edl ( the bootloader is closed), but the phone never entered in that mode. Use the technique of power + vol + and vol- and I got it right. In the device manager I recognized it correctly (with the correct name that usually say in the guides for this type of operations), but miflash told me it was not connected.

Also use the adb commands (also recognized the mobile without problems, leaving the id of the device, but when using the abd reboot command, but the phone do not entering in edl mode, the phone restarted normarlly, even with some .bat that does the same thing also restarts in normal mode instead of edl.

For all of this operations the pc always detect the phone correctly, only the charge was extremely slow.

My surprise came when a few days ago I tried to remove the fake rom of the Chinese store and put the global, but the pc (mine and others more than probe) did not detect the phone, just charged me.

I think the problem is not physical, because if I plug in a mouse by otg, it works correctly, which makes me think that the data pins are going correctly.

I hope I have given all the detail that is needed in case someone can help me. If not, please tell me what else I can contribute.

Many thanks in advance to those who can help and greetings.

PD: sorry for my english

I had a couple random disconnects from my car stereo over the last week (September patch) and once since I updated to November. I haven't had disconnects on any other phone in my car and the phone is less than two feet from the stereo so there's no physical reason. It has to be a bug with the Bluetooth drivers.

Hi all...

as I'm writing this, my MPM1 is on Stock ROM v334, rooted.

I notice that since few previous fw version at least, or maybe even since the first time the first MPM1 was out for sale, the sounds of the screen being locked and unlocked are still the same.

Is there a way to change them?

I mean it's not available now, and I know that this might be not easy either,..but since there are many experts on this xda forum, I wish that perhaps somebody could make a way/mod to do that?

That's all.

Apologize for my question that maybe is too noob.

Thank you verymuch. :)
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] Jaheen:
I dont know exactly how to change the lock sounds but there is/should-be a way.

As your device stock-rooted, you can install Gravity box, so you can get wide range of customizations.
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] akshmau5:
GravityBox requires xposed! ?

---------- Post added at 04:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:13 AM ----------

For the OP -

There are magisk modules like 1. Twilight core, Pixel 2 audio and boot animation.

which can help you such kinda stuff systemlessly, so less of a hassle and more options to choose from.

Another way is -

Using any root enabled file explorer, all you have to do is go to /system/media/audio/ui

Copy the whole folder as a backup first and then specifically for your lock sound; either you can add lock.ogg & unlock.ogg

or replace them with any sound that you want

in the same .ogg format.

For lock and unlock.

Also first try copying into that by adding rather than replacing and see if you can change those sounds after a reboot.

Of it that doesn't work, then replace those files and reboot.

Similarly you can also add various other sounds in system/media/audio as per your needs for custom notifications, alarms etc.

Edit - the 2nd way would modify /system partition which might trip safetynet.
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] Pasarireng:
1. Do you mean "MidnightCore - twilight edition" module on magisk?

I tried to install that from magisk, but after install, reboot, nothing. Should be a new app icon on the homescreen, right?

But nothing. no icon. no nothing. Only on magisk it said that it has been installed, but nothing... seems like I did nothing.

So I uninstall the module from Magisk.

2. Then I tried the other method.

Using Root explorer I copy paste two .ogg sound files (renamed as lock.ogg and unlock.ogg) into that said folder after I renamed the original files. Then I changed the new files permissions into r-w-r-r (like the original files permission set). Then I rebooted the phone. Nothing hapenned. No Lock nor Unlock sound as I intended to. Infact I accidentally deleted and lost my two original files (the Asus' original lock.ogg and unlock.ogg files)...Would you send me that 2 original files please? I'll be really appreciate it.

Well I'd like to change them but if I failed, I prefer them than to have no sounds like now :)

3. Last try, I installed the XposedInstaller 3.1.5 apk in intention to try Gravity Box app module like Jaheen said above.

But then when I tried to install the Xposed framework, it said waiting for download...forever....so I lose my patient then I uninstalled the Xposed too.

Full of failed me this time :)
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] akshmau5:
1. You have to use terminal commands.

Go to their support thread.

Link - https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/module-midnightcore-one-midnight-modules-t3762758

Download terminal app from playstore.

2. So umm.. I don't know why the new sounds don't work. Were they already in .ogg format?

I haven't done anything like changing the UI sounds so not sure, just added some sounds in ringtone and stuff. Sorry?. But mostly it's the same process.

3. You aren't able to download xposed framework from magisk??

Anyways don't bother because gravitybox can't change the lockscreen sounds.
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] Pasarireng:
1. I did check the thread. But I don't understand the thread Original post. The guide there is too few for a noob like me.

2. already ogg. I convert it from mp3 to ogg on online convert service by audio.online-convert.com probably their convert method is not good for task like this (?) I don't know. Will try it again more carefully with my pc and more proper convert software later when I'm home and see what the result will become.

3. okay I don't really have a good feeling using xposed either. it's good if I can avoid it.

anyway thank you for the replies and files. the 2 original sounds work again as usual now with files from you.

will report back here later.

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] shiftymccool:
Hello all,

I am very interested in trading in my Nexus 6 (shamu) for a OnePlus 6T. Hard to pass up the $300 trade-in on a 4 year old device :p

My main concern is the display, mainly pixel density. From GSMArena:

Nexus 6: 1440 x 2560 pixels, 16:9 ratio (~493 ppi density)

OnePlus 6T: 1080 x 2340 pixels, 19.5:9 ratio (~402 ppi density)

Is this drastic of a drop going to be noticeable? Is there something about "Optic AMOLED" that makes up for this discrepancy? It just shocked me to see a 4 year old device with display specs that outperformed a brand-new "flagship killer" (not looking for a flame war here :D)

I don't really have any T-Mobile stores in the area where I can go and compare myself. I was hoping I could get some anecdotal evidence so I could make a decision. Any ex-shamu users out there with a 6T that care to weigh in?

Thanks a lot!

I came from the Nexus 6p which has an even higher pixel density.

I honestly can't tell any difference, in fact the 6T looks even better. The home screen icons and fonts are tighter than on the 6p.

Also if you're wanting the deal, tomorrow is the last day.
