Which phone should I get out of the three slider phones

(

1.Lenovo Z5 Pro

2. Mi MIX 3

3. Honor Magic 2

)

that WILL have custom ROMs in the future? :confused:
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
That question can't really be answered, no one knows which of those devices will get custom ROMs. It depends on whether any developers with the ability to build ROMs choose to buy one of the devices and then build for it. If no developers buy one, there will be no ROMs unless a random user decides to try learning how to do it themselves. If the stock source is never released for any of those devices, they won't be getting any custom ROMs because it requires having access to the stock source code to even try building a ROM.

The only way to be sure is wait for the devices to be released then wait to see if the stock source is ever released then wait to see if anyone gets to work building for them.

In other words, there is no way to know BEFORE any development is started, you won't know until AFTER development starts, and that is only IF someone chooses to do it.

If you're interested in one of those devices, my suggestion is for you to wait until they are released and then wait for a month or two then start checking to see if anyone is working on custom development for the device.

Both Samsung and Honor have released their in-screen camera phones yesterday.

I just found this picture: compare the hole of View 20 and the hole of Samsung. It is obvious honor's is much smaller.

Will a smaller camera hole have the same camera performance? I'm curious about it...

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pawprints1986:
Been trying for days to extract the kernel from Nougat to use it within Marshmallow in order to downgrade with vibration working on nougats bootloader - but for the life of me i can NOT get windows to actually read these files properly. have all kinds of mounting programs, a java based converter that doesnt actually work (sgs2ext4) i end up with this loop of the same lines, and a 0kb converted file. I can mount the regular img file fine, but it will NOT open without some sort of error. the files themselves are just fine as they will properly flash and run when using odin (when compressed into tar.md5)

Tried wthin twrp hoping the file manager might just let me browse through it since the phone is already linux based and can actually see the information... but no dice there either. It doesnt go into further detail than just showing me that theres an img file present, with options to delete, chmod, etc.

what can i do to dig down to this zimage portion of boot.img that everyone insists the kernel is within? (i say insist cuz i havent actually seen it for myself!)

none of the tutorials ive come across address these specific opening errors - other than that the error is happening because windows cant read it

diskinternals wont work, osfmount will mount but i cant read it .... where on earth are these drivers or programs or whatever i need to actually allow me to browse and explore these files properly? and dare i say, recompress them once ive found what im looking for!

i did also try flashify, thinking run nougat, backup kernel, install marshmallow, restore nougat kernel, but it just leads to freezing on boot logo. I need to get within these img files to actually do what i want to successfully, switching out only that one specific zimage part of the file, leaving the rest intact.

very frustrated here, would very much love some help with this...

[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] walkerx:
If you are with Three UK and received the dual sim (CLT-L29) P20 Pro, there is currently no update coming for the device and neither Three or Huawei will provide any information on this, with Three constantly blaming Huawei.

This means if anyone else has got the dual sim model they may be in the same boat as users on Three.

Three also seem to dismiss any complaints regarding this issues by just saying there is currently no update for this device from Huawei for their network and once released we will get a notification. They will not provide answers as to why we are already 3 months behind on updates, why the single sim version is getting an update but the dual sim isn't, why they are preventing customers from having the latest security updates .

Ideally it would be good if all three users who want updates without having to pay to re-brand their phone (I don't see why we should have to do this) should raise a complaint to three executive offices , the more people that can highlight these issues to the likes of three, huawei and watchdog, may help us get answers and better updates.

Can anyone tell procedure to update phone rooted with twrp coz when i update apps getting messed
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ynns:
Hi

I hope this is the correct section to ask for help flashing a smartphone!

I received from a chinese supplier a HP iPaq 5xx clone as a present. He told me that HP had cancelled an order from their chinese supplier and they were giving them away cheaply.

The only identification mark (except from IMEI and serial numbers) is a part number (10DBSS10A01) which doesn't come up in Google. There are CE and FCC marks but no FCC number that might lead to the manufacturer.

I have confirmed that this is a HP iPaq 5xx clone visually (everything is in the right place, even if differently marked, e.g. the voice recorder button starts the camera), spec-wise (CPU, OS etc) and by a 'hidden' startup message that comes up if I power on while pressing the volume up key: "IPAQ 500 VOICE MESSENGER". When doing so the message is displayed for 4-5 seconds and then the phone reboots to the normal generic WM6 screen.

I'm happy playing around with the phone and would like to replace my ageing Nokia 6310i but I need the ability to write SMS in Greek. While WM6 provides greek support in most functions, the phone only supports English, Turkish, German and Russian languages for T9 text (which I cannot seem to disable!).

Naturally I tried to use HPs ROM update of the iPaq 514 phone (sp38065) that supports Greek but, naturally, the HP utility does not find a valid phone connected (the ROM is intended for SKU ID FA906AA#B1A).

The phone has another 'secret' key combination (Power on & Volume down) which starts it up to a text screen with the following lines:

DBS Loader: V0.760

Build Time:May 8 2007

HWVer: 12, HWID: 89

GSM: V1.090

When in this state the phone is unresponsive even to the power down key and I need to remove the battery to start it again. My guess is that it may be either searching the SD card for a ROM image or is waiting for a program to send the ROM image via the USB cable. I did try to load the HP ROM image (PLT_2.05.00_4018.BLOSGSM.nbf) on the SD and booting but nothing happened, perhaps because it looks for a specific name.

Although this is my first time using smartphones I am a computer hardware professional and can also follow 'hacking' instructions although I lack the tools for smartphones.

Any suggestions to try and flash the ROM I need will be greatly appreciated, I don't care if I end up with a dead phone!

Thanks in advance

After installing the December update, at many places the font has become weird. Shadow and outline has been added to font at several places. It looks out of place. For example, the header for each card in the settings menu, the battery percentage, the time etc. I have attached screenshots. I tried restarting my phone several times doesn't help. Anyone else facing this issue?? Please help if anyone has a solution.

EDIT: Actually this change in font has happened everywhere, but is only visible on dark backgrounds or bigger font sizes.

Now i have the problem that i can't install any custom rom.

this is a "z3"

Btw, if you are on Linux and fastboot is giving you an error, check "fastboot --version" to see which you are on. I was on 29.0.2 and had to do a system update to get 29.0.4 before I could install this ROM.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] TWiiTCH:
I have a Note 9 SM-N960W and have found a few different ways of doing screenshots. Method 1... Palm swipe is annoying, method 2... power + vol down is hard to time and triggers volume sliders that ruin the screenshot, and method 3... there is a screenshot option in the edge pannel and also smart select.

The Problem with all these is the edge pannel Handel always shows on the resulting image. Is there an easy way to somehow use the built in screenshot app/apk maybe through an activities manager shortcut?

Right now I'm using Button Mapper and have disabled edge pannel but would love a quick & easy way to capture the full screen, no adb, and no edge pannels or palm swipes because they are just annoying! Any helpful suggestions or ideas? I've tried all I could find.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] willcor:
You can try installing standalone apk NavStar (Samsung) from ApkMirror website.

Then download free app "Activity Manager" app

from Play store.

Open Activity Manager, search for NavStar, tap on NavStar and another window will open.

You will see two options.

First option, tap 3 dot menu and create shortcut for

NavStar to configure it, as NavStar

won't show in your app drawer.

NavStar is part of Samsung, Good Lock 2018 app.

However Good Lock 2018 is not available for some markets /users

With NavStar you can customize your navigation bar

to choose your own selection from options available.

You can choose "screenshot" etc.

See attached

You don't have to do any ADB /root/etc

It's a straight forward "sideload /install manually"

app.

Safe, no issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] jdonmc1948:
I use Buttonmapper to set "single tap" volume down for screen shots. Works perfect..
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Talderon:
I use an app called "Softkey Edge App". It's an app panel that you slide out from the side like other edge apps and it has several shortcut keys, screenshot is one of them.

Nice thing is, it takes the screenshot WITHOUT the edge panel, so you actually get what you want.

You can find it on the Samsung App Store.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] HuStLaZ:
depends if you want to save a screenshot or just share it to someone.

When sharing a screenshot (which I don't necessarily want to keep), I'll hold the home button to trigger google assistant. Then just send a screenshot from there. Nice and simple and no messing with buttons.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ultramag69:
Hold Bixby button and say "Take screenshot" ...

Works brilliantly...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods] TWiiTCH:
Thanks everyone, some great ideas! I decided to go with button Mapper because I don't use edge pannel, I hate the handle showing on my screenshots even though it is transparent to a certain degree. Button mapper takes the screenshot basically instantly and there are no icons or any sort of idea that an extra app is being used. The only downside is my phone is not rooted so I cannot reboot without having to run ADB Commands again, but no biggie since my phone is always on. Thanks for all the help full suggestions everyone!!!

I've never heard the audio from the pixel but the HTC 10 audio is way better than the Q7+. I would recommend testing the Q7+ and compare yourself.

Hmm, if as you say HTC 10 had better audio, then I might as well just buy hi-res usb-c to 3.5mm adapter for my Pixel 2 and enjoy.

Hello my friends,

I had an iPhone before so it might be very complicated for me.

As I understand, the bootloader code works only with a specific firmware (I have a mate 10 Pro).

My actual version is 8.0.0.157 C432 (newest).

As I read they updated the xloader to 02 ? On which version can I downgrade to use DC unlocker ? Tried it yesterday but I get a error message that my device is not supported (error code 375).

Or are there other solutions to unlock my boot loader ? Paid already 4 euro for the DC unlocker account.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Bordo_Bereli51:
You can not downgrade a 02 xloader based firmware to a 01 xloader based firmware. Dont try it. It will hard-brick your phone and there is no way to unbrick it. As your bootloader is still locked, you can not use any no-check recovery method to downgrade, but what you can do is get bootloader unlock code by using dc huawei bootloader code app. You have to pay 25€ as I remember and they get your bootloader unlock code using your IMEI.

How did i change my version from metropcs to ATT? Being at thsi position in this process is actually progress and it was exciting to see twrp on a once locked boot loader.

Google dialer built in rom(maybe will work if installed?)

Android pie based rom(
maybe)

I tried it on our Mi A1 and it works... Well partially... For me the phone does show the words the other person is taking but he can't hear the assistant's voice.

While following the steps on the above thread you may notice that lines of code may or may not be missing!

Just add them on... Or if you're lazy just copy paste the below lines of code

To above the line
