Hi. Yes, I have to agree too. Over here in Northern Ireland, my coverage was very poor - only Edge available in Belfast - and I live about 20 miles away. Then about 3 weeks ago, I suddenly started getting 3G, and last week it changed - most of the time - to H. I checked te O2 website, to discover that there wasn't even any H apparently planned for here. Rang O2 to check if it was just a test, but they didn't have a clue.. Surprise, surprise..
[Touch Cruise General] biscuitboy:
Agree'd,

Great in Leicester, locks straight on to H as soon as I'm near... Very fast! And freeeeeee!! :D

[Huawei Mate 9 Pro Questions & Answers] genehung2003:
I accidentally wipe Dalvik/Art cache、System、Data and Cache through twrp recently.

Now, my phone shows no OS, so can not boot in system.

I can enter TWRP and fastboot and e-recovery, but I have tried to install UPDATE.zip, it always show error. I can install update_full_LON-L29_hw_spcseas.zip sucessfully though.

Is there anyway to fix my brick mate9 PRO>< PLZ help me

Another problem is that I cant install zip files through install(my phone doesnt have a sd card), the directory always shows encrypted text and wouldnt let me choose. I have tried few recoveries, including TWRP_3.2.1-0_OREO, Rayglobe_Recovery, and twrp-3.1.1-0-hi3660. Some of them cant getin recovery after flashing them, the rest shows encrypted text. Can anyone please save my brick phone?
[Huawei Mate 9 Pro Questions & Answers] Freddy1k:
TWRP doesn't work correctly, since the phone uses encryption.

I'd try downloading the Huawei Multi-tool, then download a full update through it, that fits your phone model. Then (assuming you have access to fastboot) flash the downloaded update through the Multi-tool program.

Basically this:

Huawei Multi-tool > find correct firmware with Huawei firmware finder (it's included in the program) > extract the different parts of the firmware needed, which is displayed on the the unbricking tap, and follow the rest of the instructions displayed there.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] topcaser:
Hi,

do you want to get the maximum image quality out of your images? Then you could store your pictures in RAW as well. If you are using Lightroom you can use my attached presets for ISO 50 and ISO 100. Just import them in Lightroom and you can profit from my optimzation between noise reduction and sharpening for the Note 9. I have done it by using this guide: http://www.sonyuserforum.de/forum/showthread.php?t=121841

After importing your RAW images to Lightroom just apply the correct preset to the corresponding ISO value, set the curve to middle contrast, apply auto development, increase the contrast to around zero, increase saturation by 5 o 10 and you get a very good basis for your image to optimze it (e. g. regarding shadows and highlights).

I have also presets for the other ISO values (indeed there are 16 different). If you like the attached presets just send me a PN to get more. With a preset in place per ISO value you could automatize the presets during import and don't think about any more about sharpening and noise reduction.

Hi, I installed the TWRP recovery on my S5. Loaded SuperSU.

Did the first backup in TWRP: boot, data, modem, efs, firmware, system on the external sdcard, TWRP\Backups.

One hour later only the boot-backup is left.

What does this mean? Why is it deleted?

Hi, I searched the forum but didn't find a way to enable that the Android system notifications show during video playback.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] quoshon:
For the past week I have been having battery issues normally i can go 2 days before im down to 10% but now i have to charge it every night.

I installed Gsam found out my phone is staying awake by something in Android system

So i installed BBS the only thing i see is IMSSERVICE under partial wake locks

and its only using 5% but it racks up the counts if i turn my screen off for 7 min and check again it has 400+ counts.

Another thing i noticed is when i went to reboot into recovery to clear cache i noticed it said something about not being able to find AT&T csc

I have a Sprint 950u and i have VoLTE disabled but wifi calling enabled

Ive tried disabling wake lock for IMS via ADB but it still does the same thing.

Non rooted BTW

anyhelp is appreciated
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] quoshon:
UPDATE

ignored all packages that had IMS in it.

It still showing up but its now where as many times i went 10 min and only had 31 counts.

Then SprintHub showed that it was holding it awake i ended up disabling the package using

pm disable-user

Fully charged and let phone sit for 30 min it only dropped 1% so i think im in the clear now

Hi I am in Hungary I just got the update a couple of days ago. It was 8 before and now it is 9 and EMUI 9.

Since the update I had 1 random restart and for me it is less smooth. My main issue is I use the double tap on the recent apps button to go back to the previous app a lot and it is not really working always or I have to do it quite slow and not the same as I did and it stuck and have to do again and very annoying. It is also ignoring some apps to go back to like it was not used at all. And there are other minor bugs like in a game I double tap and it makes a screenshot. I know the double knock thing I use it a lot but before it was not this sensitive and it was doing only for knocks and not taps. I was hoping so much the new EMUI 9 would support 3rd party apps notifications on the AOD but no. I am disappointed. My last phone was a S galaxy s7 and they made this integration so quickly. I have a feeling we are abandoned. Anybody have some news about this? I miss it so much. The phone is faster a bit anyway and the battery time is great. I deleted the cache partition. So what is your opinion about these things? Thanks guys.

9.0.0.163

emui 9.0.0.

***

Try to reinstall with the OTG method, should work, in my case was same, the first installation felt laggy, but after i repeat the process, works smoothy
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] otonieru:
one annoyance i found in emui 9 is that now the default sim for sms will follow default internet sim, not the call one like how it was in emui 8,

this cause issue for banking app that using background sms for verification,

the app will say am using incorrect sim card if i use it with an internet connection from second sim.

this wasnt an issue in emui 8.

i hope this is just a coding bugs instead of purposely made by huawei

I don't have any issue after update... Phone works perfect, camera perfect, battery perfect... after update I did FR
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] edintl:
We are on the same release, and i dont have any issue with banking app. Everything also running perfect. The only issue i found after 168 update is night mode camera. It become noisy and blurry especially under shadow and dark area. Very disappointed. It wasnt happen in emui 8
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] otonieru:
banking app itself is fine as long as i use internet from the sim that i used for banking verification as well,

it become an issue when i use internet from another sim. the app will unable to send verification sms from the correct registered sim, since in emui 9, default sms sim is following the one used as default for data in dual sim setting, while in emui 8, it follow the one used for call.

kinda hard to explain it in a word, lol. But this is common problem with dual phone sim, and thats why i expect all oem to actually give us setting to set default sim for sending sms, now we can only set default for data and call.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Tyrantroid:
It's same the problem with my P20 Pro :(:( After I had updated to EMUI9 the Chrome app didn't sync well everything.. My old bookmarks are empty also! It also flashed off in the Google app before, I reset to factory for twice. And then is turn to Google Play store's apps update to update repeated.. It's like you never did it :silly::silly: I'm thinking about take it back to 8 through the Huawei Hisuite.. I think the Android 9 Pie comes with EMUI 9 is not ready for now... By the way, I'm from Vietnam, a Chinese.

(2) I've just tried to up to EMUI9 one more time.. But this time my phone didn't get matters at all, it's running well!

- Above all issues didn't see any more :laugh:

Things I did just simply returned to the 8 ver through HiSuite, then I used it for the ordinary days, logged in Google accounts also..

At before I was using Chinese language for the Huawei Vietnam device.. So I think it was wrong during updating something just like that, in this time I changed device back to Vietnamese language(root) & update to EMUI9 with Hicare app in the phone........... I saw something after it had updated was the update's log is writing Vietnamese while my phone was changing into Chinese language.. So funny about it! :rolleyes: But the most important thing was everything well! No battery draining quickly too, thank gods!

- The present patch:

9.0.0.168(C636E2R1P12patch01)

- The present version:

9.0.0.168(C636E2R1P12)

*My suggestion you do not put it in Factory Reset, do not change to other locations through changing language in the phone, update it to 9EMUI based on the lastest ver of EMUI8(local) with the patches if it has. Good luck to you..

I did factory reset my p20 pro and it seems it is the same. I have the same problems just like after the update. 1. Double tap on recent apps squere button (go to previous app instantly) is laggy often stuck on the card view instead of reloading the previous app immediately. 2. Touch screen less responsive, many times I can see a blueish 'sparking' mark or line where I touch or swipe the screen means the system detected my touch but it is not linked to the OS properly. Anyway the battery and everything else seems good. So what is otg method I tried to search but it seems not so common or they call different, and anyway how can a factory reset different than the other FR? thank you guys and happy new year!

Hi All

I wonder if I could ask a favour? The stock camera app I have on EMUI 8 (5th November update) has no method of saving the photos other than internal storage. Does the camera app on Pie have an option to save to an external location eg OTG SD card?

Thanks in anticipation...

It will take time to train the battery again since you have upgraded to Android P. Use your phone as you normally do for a week and the battery management AI will kick in to place and optimise itself

I would recommend a factory reset after an upgrade so that it can fully clear all user/system defined settings.

Hello guys.

I have this model PF7146BS. I bought the car with it. My mirrorlink does not work so the xtrons's support sent me some update kit and now, the screen is very messy, almost to the point that it doesn't work.

Are there any that could work with mine? Any help will be extremely helpful.

Hello!

Is there any way to root my device without unlocking the bootloader, and would that be a higher risk for my device?
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] vtec303:
It is possible but you won't be able to flash custom recovery or a custom rom or kernel, unlocked bootloader plus root will make possible to modify system partition, I am still a learner of android modifications so please read the following, hope this helps, cheers.

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Shen Ron:
There is a higher chance that you might brick your OnePlus 6 if you don't unlock the bootloader. Once the bootloader is unlocked and you have the OEM unlocking option enabled you would be able to save your phone in case something goes wrong
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] sanaulla jauhar:
i wudnt recommend. as it has high chance of hard bricking ur device!!
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] vtec303:
There's a higher probability of bricking the device with a unlocked bootloader I have soft and hard bricked many phones with an unlocked bootloader including my oneplus 6, a phone with a locked bootloader won't flash any files so it will be less of a chance, our friend here is not asking about the phone getting bricked or not he's asking something else, I think we all should gain some knowledge which proves fruitful in the long run, cheers.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] scroll-lock:
I've been trying for a long time to get OEM unlock with the Samsung Galaxy J5 Pro SM-J530 G variant. I've seen people unlocking the BL in the J730G, same exynos chip.

Here is what I have tried so far:

All date/time tricks

Factory reset

Flash Stock ROM

Waited 7 days

My last attempt made me give up and ask for help here... I completely flashed the most recent stock rom, wiped everything using the CSC file not the CSC-HOME, I did the start setup logging into samsung account and google account, after completing the start setup I inserted the SIM card otherwise that stupid start setup would consume 4G costing me $$$.

Waited for 168 hours with the device always on, and still no OEM UNLOCK, I mean what else can I do... there's almost nothing about this problem with this device here on XDA... I'm hoping someone with a SM-J530G and that had OEM Unlock could tell me what was the process to enable this option. Or what are my options here? Thx

And by the way, I've seen something called Miracle Box, but I dont want to use it since it does not look very legal, I think its meant for FRP bypass. I'm just an android user trying to root my personal device e.e
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] Franz Enz:
I'm having the same problem, I'm tired of this, never buying Samsung again. I tried all the things I searched on the internet for hours and nothing works, I do not want to wait 7 days, if you find a method of bypassing that actually works, please do tell me, I will do the same if I find one.

I'm so pissed.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] Franz Enz:
I have good news for you my friend, and for everyone that is reading this. I tried many and more times the same procedure changing small things. I will try to write it out as best as I can so I can help some fellow buddies who've got the same problem.

1 - (As I had already everything backed up and got nothing to lose) Factory Format the device (I did it from the bootloader), hell, I even also cleared cache just for god's sake.

2 - Proceed to initiate Android, DON'T sign-in to any account (nor Samsung nor Google), don't change the date during installation, finish set-up.

3 - DON'T enable Developer's Mode yet. Change the date, I've set it for a month back just to be damn sure (disable automatic date-set). Now go to the Software Updates tab and disable auto-updates and manually check for updates, once done, re-boot.

4 - Once rebooted enable auto-date (that should correct the old date and replace it with the actual one) and re-do the manual check.

5 - Re-boot and enable Developer's Mode and hopefully, for the love of Ragnar Lothbrok, OEM Unlock should be there. I hope it is for all of you.

Hope it helped, good luck buddy/buddies!
