[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Amjad.AbdulGhani:
Ok so.. To be clear.. Nothing.. Nothing backs up the apps data like titanium backup.. I used it long time ago, but i stopped rooting since few years.

Now the difference between samsung backup or cloud or switch (all almost does the same thing) and Google backup cant be determined..

Here is my experience..

Google backup does backup apps data and settings perfectly when using a pixel phone.. So pixel to pexil..

Samsung cloud or switch does backup SOME apps data (Samsung to Samsung). And does backup the majority of Samsung native apps and settings (always misses something when restoring)

However, i noticed that as long as you are backing up and restoring to the same phone (same device not only same brand) then either Samsung or Google do restore the most possible..

You have to keep in my mind that there are apps that i couldn't restore its data no matter what, and mostly these apps are the ones that have higher authentication (Instagram, WhatsApp, shipment tracking apps, banks apps and so on).. But i was always able to restore apps like Talon or Fenix (twitter apps)..

I believe that some apps do allow restoration as long as its coming back to the same exact device (simple formate and restore) but others dont no matter what..

Recently i did a factory reset after updating to pie (i didn't factory reset during the beta so my apps where already setup on pie) so moving from pie to pie in samsung and same device using SD card and Samsung switch. I would say most of samsung settings where restored, 40% of my apps data restored, i had 2 or 3 apps completely not restored and i downloaded them again from play store.. Most of samsung native apps settings were restored..

I would advice, doing both Samsung switch and Google backup (keep in mind that Google back is now activated and u can manually backup ur device anytime) thats what i did, and when i restored the last time, i restored from both, because when u do the setup, first google asks you if you want to restore then samsung asks you too.. So i did both.. And i would say it worked better than what i expected, minimal setup overall compared to a fresh device setup.. But expect an hour or 2 of double checking of you do check all apps after restoring like me..

This thread is relevant to me. I want to root my phone, but first I want to backup my apps and data. I know in future I can use Titanium Backup but how to backup now without root. Is everyone using Smart Switch and Google Backup. I looked at Helium but most apps say they can't be backed up.
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] Cobmaster:
Hi! I've got lineage 14.1 and I want to format /data as ext4 to avoid flashing the f2fs module since I install a lot of modules and it exceeds the size of /cache resulting in a bootloop. I also installed Valyrian kernel and everything works almost flawlessly except the camera, it is not showing

in the app drawer and I cannot open it. It's installed but it doesn't open . And also the torch isn't working ( I think it's related to the camera app that doesn't work). The question is: can I format /data as ext4? Does the ROM start?

Sorry if it seems a noob question, but I don't want to brick it, it's my primary device. Thanks in advance.

I am trying to push Samsung into making Samsung Cloud extra storage purchases available in Australia. I have contacted them many times over the past 12 months to ask about this and they have no foreseeable time when this will happen. I'm hoping if I make a public stand with enough support it might get things rolling.

Here is my post:

Samsung Australia . . . . Can you please please PLEASE get serious about making extra cloud storage subscriptions available in Australia!

Samsung Cloud storage is fantastic but we NEED more of it! Having the ability to manage photo and video storage directly from Gallery, such as deleting items from both device and cloud in one action is a priceless feature. Having to resort to other cloud services is messy and frustrating.

Samsung Cloud will automatically delete data that has not been accessed for more than 12 months. This means that if you have not opened any file, including photos and videos, for 12 months it's gone! BUT . . . this doesnt apply to paid subscription users. . . WHICH ISNT AVAILABLE IN AUSTRALIA!!!

(pic of above info)

https: //imgur .com/a/3tPtVSw (cant post links so put a spaces in)

In my opinion and many others, you've always outdone Apple. But this is a serious let down. . . .

If any other Samsung lovers are desperate for this too please comment, help me get their attention and convince them it is a much needed, wanted, and profitable feature!'ve made a facebook post that I'm hoping to share far and wide and gather more samsung users who would like the same.

I'd really love if any Aussies could give me a show of support by commenting and or sharing my Facebook post. :)

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] Snakeulecu:
Hi guys,

I just got the phone two days ago and encountered the following issues that are surrounding wifi:

- wifi connection drops. I saw in the settings of the wifi when waking the phone that the IP field goes to none or an exclamation mark near the wifi icon or directly drops the connection. The drop happens for about 1 minute, comes back for 1 minute and drops again. Repeat. This does not happen on 4g. Wifi is set for always on, whatsapp and fb messenger that I use for the tests are exempt from battery saving. Note that this does not happen when using the phone on other wireless connections or a hotspot.

Happens both on 5ghz and 2.4ghz

Now, the troubleshooting that I've done was to factory reset the phone, test different Wifi networks and look through the settings to make sure that nothing will hinder my wifi capabilities.

On the router I tried with all the combinations of channels and channel width.

The router is an Archer C9 version 3.0/4.0 with the lastest firmware.

Please assist as it's driving me nuts!

[HTC Vox] TheShowStopper:
Hiya boys and girls! Ok... just put Tommy on my 650 but... i'm told there is a program called FAKE CURSOR available in which to enable simplicity when it comes to setting up, for example, speed camera alerts and the ability to manage them, among other things. Now, i've GOT the programme, read various bits and bobs about it via Google, but, i can't find any help as to how you assign keys or link it to the tomtom itself. Shortcuts needed maybe??? Anyone got a step by step gide at all please? Sadly after selling my Kaiser (lack of funds at the time!), i can't do it on that and edit back over any more.

Any help would be awesome.

Yes i realise you CAN use the tomtom without this FAKE CURSOR but... personally, i'd prefer to use it with it to save mucking about going back and forth if errors are made. Let's face it, if you type in a postal code incorrectly, you have to go back and start again as you can't delete the error can you.

Anyway, shout up and shout loud cus this one would be a help to us all if someone has the right answer!

Cheers, Steve :D

[HTC Vox] kosborn2:
its simple

what i do is put the fake cursor exe on the storage card somewhere and have a long keypress of the voicecall button run it, and it works perfect together with tomtom.

remember to exit fake cursor you need to press the home key, but then you can press back to back to tom tom.

i have attached the fake cursor exe, and the shortcut to enable the long press of the voice call button (long_poc) to run fake cursor

at the moment the shortcut (long_poc) is directed to ""storage card/fake cursor/fake cursor.exe", BUT if you want to change it create a new .txt file and drag the shortcut to it, then edit the path, and then save, job done.

if you need any help, post!

PS remember to put the long poc file in the /windows/ folder!

Okies! Got all that after a few brainless moments with creating a folder called Fake Cursor (the space messed it up!!!) but there's just one thing that i'm not 100% sure of. Is it supposed to leave a 'snails trail' effect as you scroll up/down/l/r etc etc? Mine looks a bit odd! Ok it works and that's cool cus now i can finally set my camera alerts up and sort my COM port to but... well, it it supposed to do that? Just wondering!

Thanks for the help so far. I'm sure others may have found it useful when Googling etc etc.

Thanks, Steve :-)

P.S. Ignore the Private Message! You'll see why when you read it! ha ha ha

Forget TomTom.

It doesn't support the smartphone hardware keys and FakeCursor is a crime to use.

Try Route 66 (Navigate 7) or Sygic McGuider (7.52).

Both work perfect on the Vox and have updated maps.

If push comes to shove, you can perhaps use a Linux bootable image (Which I've found is many times more reliable).
[Razer Phone 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] blackknightavalon:
Use the latest platform-tools download from Google, unzip the file, put the ADB and Fastboot binaries in a different folder, then use this link (if you're on Windows) to get the command line to read ADB and Fastboot from any directory. If you're on Linux or Mac, drop the Unix binaries into /usr/bin then chmod their permissions to a+rwx to get the Terminal to read it from any folder

Hi, I have a Zuk Z1 with ZUI 2.5.330 installed. So, I want to try some custom ROMs for fun, but ZUI version haven't an OEM unlock option, only have an usb debugging option. I already install adb and fastboot tools for Android, and I can reboot to bootloader through command adb reboot bootloader, but when I type fastboot devices nothing appears. When fastboot is active, in the ZUK z1 appears a black screen with the linux penguin and a status that say locked. So, if someone can give me a solution I would appreciated.

[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Matthew234:
After installing the EMUI 9 update when I zoom, especially at 10x, the photos taken are not what they appear on the screen before taking them. Instead, the photo taken is something that is lower down to what I was trying to take a photo of. For example, if I try to take a picture of the B key on my laptop it takes a picture of the space bar.

Furthermore, whilst this hasn't only been occurring after the EMUI 9 update, very small artefacts that stay in the same position are present at high zoom, especially 10x zoom (they are invisible at no zoom and only become slightly visible at 5x zoom), when the camera focuses on an object. They appear like small white dots (visible when you zoom in on something that is black in colour as the white dots become more visible). However, they don't appear when taking the photo due to post-processing smoothing the photo out. They are not present though when taking pictures in the pitch black so surely they are not dead pixels? You can though see it on video at 10x zoom. The lens is clean. Is this normal?

Any help is much appreciated,

Thank you.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Matthew234:
I've investigated the problem further regarding the first issue and I believe it must be something to do with the telephoto lens not always functioning, which happened straight after updating to EMUI 9, therefore, only the main sensor takes the picture, hence why the final photo appears further down than the preview photo. Also, if I take a photo and then look at it in the gallery and then go back to the camera, the preview image is shifted and the image quality is worse, which would make sense if the telephoto lens is not working when zooming. However, it does seem to work sometimes.

Can someone else test this as it must be a software issue.

I'm on EMUI 9.0.0.168

Thank you.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Klusio19:
Hello.

For some time I have noticed that I have no vibrations anywhere: during the ringing, in any application, in diagnostics too. Unfortunately, I have not noticed when I do not have them (I mean since which ROM). ROM history on my Poco:

1. From the novelty box MIUI global 10 (Christmas 2018)

2. Immediately after unlocking the bootloader for several weeks MIUI POLSKA (weekly) (from Christmas to about first week January 2019)

3. For one week xiaomi.eu 10.1.3.0

4. Until today, MIUI POLSKA (weekly)

where: in the 1st and 2nd roms, the vibrations were working (so the hardware defect is gone), with the 3th I'm not sure (I do not remember) whether the vibrations worked, and in rom 4. I did not pay attention or specifically from some version weekly vibrations have disappeared or for some other reason. So I quickly tried downgrade to weekly 9.1.10 and also in this version there were no vibrations. I have not tried the stable version yet, as I will try to write it. Currently I have: MIUI 9.1.24 (weekly), Magisk v18, Battery Charge Limit [ROOT], Franco Kernel, (in the stock kernel also does not work).

I am asking for help.
