[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scottay5150:
I am using a Google Pixel 2 XL I have been using Google voice typing for some time now. It is not working better than when I started.

Shouldn't it learn what normal phrases I use? It's always using Siri for a period, constantly. I say PS it uses TS, a comma is tama etc.

Is there a setting that I am missing in my phone or otherwise that I can adjust.

Additionally, shouldn't it constantly keep improving itself based on what I speak into the voice typing???

I thought Google was big into AI? Definitely not with the Google voice typing!

What are your thoughts?

[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] karenz88:
in brief

I have unlocked the botloder with commands in cmd, I have uploaded magisk, I expanded internal memory by sd card (my error). Unfortunately, after the upgrade to Android 9, the phone fail at receive any new updates (installation error of 30%). Subsequently, dumped magisk, did not help, , I uninstall sd card, now I did restore the factory data and the updates still do not work. November version of Andorida is badly bugged and there are problems even with the camera. So it looks like I'll have to send a phone for guarantees, a question now how to block a botloader or you have an idea how to fix ota update.

[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] karenz88:
fine but how to reblock a botloader ?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] marstonpear:
use this on fastboot:

fastboot oem lock

Warning: this will wipe your data and if you have tampered with phone's partitions phone will hard brick. Make sure to have a backup. Other people have also experienced issues with January update. Locking the bootloader and booting the phone successfully doesn't mean that you will have January update for sure.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] gglface:
There's no point in locking the bootloader or returning the phone just because you failed to apply OTA update. Your phone is perfectly fine. Most of us had problems and bootloop while trying to apply Magisk OTA. This has been a frequent issue since the initial Pie update and the phone has nothing to do with it. It's either Google implemented stricter security policies or current version of Magisk are having Pie compatibility issues. If OTA is to important to you, just flash an official fastboot image and don't root your phone.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] karenz88:
Ota does not have much meaning for me, but I have a problem with the camera and it annoys me already. I reblock a botloader and still cant update phone...
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] gglface:
Fastboot image of 10.0.3 is already out. You could consider flashing your phone with "flash all" option to fix the errors. And i would recommend keeping the bootloader unlocked because many mi a2 owners got their phone bricked as a result of ota update with a locked bootloader in which case the only workaround is to disassemble the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] atfrase:
I just replaced my S7's camera module and lens, which involved heating the edges, prying open the case, removing the three modules and motherboard, and replacing the camera itself.

After re-assembly the new camera works, but every once in awhile the phone behaves as if there are a flurry of touches in the lower area of the screen; the apps menu pops up repeatedly, sometimes recent apps are selected, etc, all without touching the screen at all. After maybe 10 seconds of this (during which I've started hitting the power button to immediately lock the phone and prevent accidental calls or such), it calms down and the touch screen seems to work perfectly fine for awhile, until it happens again.

Any ideas what might cause this kind of malfunction? Could it be as simple as a loose connector when I re-installed the motherboard? Or, I read that the screen is sensitive to heat, does this sound like a symptom of heat damage to the touch screen from when I heated the edges to open the case?

Is there anything I can do to further diagnose and fix this issue?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] cooltt:
Glue on the inside of the screen when you took it apart. Glue has some moisture in it, moisture conducts voltage, the screen works by voltage resistance when you touch it with a human finger.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] atfrase:
Hm, thanks for the tip! That would make sense, although I only removed the back cover and not the front; you think some of that adhesive could still have worked its way down onto the inside of the screen, which was below the rest of the phone assembly while working on it upside-down?

Would you suggest then removing the screen this time and checking for stray glue on the inside? Or opening the back again? When I re-assembled I did just re-use the existing adhesive with a bit more heat to soften it before pressing the back cover back on; maybe it would be better to remove all of that and use a new adhesive sticker on the back?

edit: I should mention also that after further observation, I'm pretty sure the primary touchscreen area is not affected, the issue is only on the menu soft key area left of the physical home button. I thought there were phantom screen touches that were selecting recent apps from the list, but I think now it's actually phantom sideways-swipes on the menu soft key which is apparently a swap-to-last-app gesture that I never knew about.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] cooltt:
Phones are now quite difficult to repair yourself, so many steps and needing to mess about with the adhesive.

I would open it back up make sure no stray adhesive anywhere and

carefully

put it back together. Normally there's no need to get more adhesive as you only need a very small amount of the original adhesive to stick it back together. Just take your time and heat it up properly.

So I wanna root my S8+ SM-G955F and I wanna know which RMM_state_bypass_Mesa should I use a video I saw (published in 2018 octomber I think) was using the vol. 1 version and mentioned that RMM bypass is very important to not get into a OEM lock bootloop, anyways.

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] gregwee:
The latest versions of Google Play Services detects if you have Magisk 18.1 installed. This disables Google Pay.

Refer to this thread for the solution.

You basically need to downgrade Google Play Services to 14.7.99 and disable background data to prevent it from updating itself. You'll also need to disable "Admin" for "Find my phone" since this gives Google Play Services admin privileges..

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] bigbamboo5:
Hi. My 2XL (UK, not rooted, Vodafone) has suddenly stopped sending texts and is giving me an 'error 50' code. I use Google Messages and have also tried Chomp and it happens on both, so it isn't the app. For most phones it is apparently a simple case of updating the Message Center number using message settings, but apparently the Pixels don't have that facility, so I've been using the code: *#*#4636#*#* and then clicking 'phone information' and then the forums say to hit 'refresh' and the Message Center number updates. That does happen, but it seems to wipe as soon as I exit the screen and I'm back to square one, with 'error 50' again.

Any ideas? Please help if you can, as this is driving me up the wall! :)

This has now been fixed and I wanted to post about that to help anyone who may have the same problem in the future. Even though Vodafone assured me it was a local issue (my phone) it turns out to have been a network problem (their settings) and they found a server-side solution by'flushing' my signal, whatever that means. Everything started to work again, although it took a few hours. I hope this helps.

[Shield Android TV General] xd4d3v:
so I've installed magisk on 7.2.2 by creating a patched boot.img and flashing via fastboot.

All nice, until I installed a module that ended in bootloop.

I managed to recover by flashing the original boot.img, but I end up with no magisk/no root, and no means to uninstall the module, So if i reflash magisk, I end up with the bootloop.

Is there a new recovery compatible with 7.2.2 or anyone knows a way out of this?
[Shield Android TV General] thecoolkid:
There is no twrp for 7.2.2 yet. You can either delete /data/adb/magisk.img and install all your modules again

or

copy it to your phone while in recovery, rename the original (assuming you have magisk on your phone), copy it to the same location as above, flash the attachment to mount it, remove module from /magisk/, reboot to recovery (don't reboot to system!), cut the file off of the phone and rename the original back to magisk.img, you can then boot your phone.
[Shield Android TV General] xd4d3v:
problem is I can't flash anything as I don't have a custom recovery.

do you mean flash the zip you posted via stock recovery? will it flash? what does it do? where does it go?

thanks
[Shield Android TV General] thecoolkid:
I meant flash it on your phone, the second solution involves a second device as a surrogate. The zip just mounts magisk image to /magisk/ so you can browse it manually.
[Shield Android TV General] xd4d3v:
Sorry mate, not following you, why do I need a phone?

I'd be happy deleting magisk.img on the shield and loosing magisk config, but I can't access it without root or recovery.
[Shield Android TV General] thecoolkid:
Ok, I researched a little and the only thing that comes to mind, that isn't wiping the whole data position, is downgrading to 7.1 firmware and installing twrp. After you fix your issues you can update again.
[Shield Android TV General] xd4d3v:
yeah, good one, I was considering that as well, might try flashing just boot.img and blob from 7.1 and trying TWRP, then reflashing 7.2.

wish me luck :)
[Shield Android TV General] mLgz0rn:
Heres an easier way, create a blank .disable_magisk file and place it in /data/cache

Then reboot, this will force magisk to start with "Magisk Core Only Mode" , which means magisk hide and modules will be disabled.

Then you can disable "magisk core only mode" when booted up, so modules and magiskhide is enabled again.

Then uninstall the module that is being the issue.
[Shield Android TV General] thecoolkid:
You need root or TWRP for that. I was thinking about it too, but he has no access to twrp in the new update and can't boot with root.
[Shield Android TV General] mLgz0rn:
You only need to use the developer boot without patching magisk to it, then through adb create a file there.

You can get root access through adb which allows you to create a file there
[Shield Android TV General] xd4d3v:
That's a brilliant idea. So the developer image allows root via adb?
[Shield Android TV General] mLgz0rn:
Yep, hence why they call it "rooted" even though its not it dosnt have the su binaries by default, its more like unlocked compared to the ota builds.

You should be able to do the command "adb root" and then enter shell with root access.

I can't remember but you might need to do "adb disable-verity" and reboot before you can put stuff into the root partition "/system", "/data/cache" and so on.

Just remember when you patch the boot image with magisk again, you either first need to do "adb enable-verity" and then patch with "preserve avb 2.0/dm-verity" checked in magisk or keep dm-verity disabled then patch with "preserve avb 2.0/dm-verity" unchecked, else you gonna end up in a boot loop.

Been using HAL Launcher for a while, and it's visually great, very similar to stock, but it irks me that when you install an app, you need to manually add it, even to the "for phone and TV" or whatever it's called.

is there anything better out there?

I'm using top tv launcher 2.

I think it looks great, and it's really simple.

You can even set a wallpaper, but its really limited what you can do with that.
