This may be a bit OT ....

Thats a good deal on the PS4, congrats. I am also a new PS4 owner, I was able to get the black friday deal for 1TB PS4 slim for $200 which came with the new Spiderman game which I sold for $30.

There are a lot of used games available for cheap for PS4 online or in places like GamesStop, I've been able to buy a few $5/10 titles.

I looked on Swapp for Pixel or Pixel 2 XL but most were well over ebay prices. Will keep looking.

Hello! Yesterday I flashed the Xiaomi rom to my Redmi 6 pro mi flash tool and now the phone only shows black screen, and when i connect to PC the notification light blinking and the PC recognize only in Qualcomm 9008 mode. What can I do in this situation?

can someone authorized my account for edl authentication

What exactly you did please tell
[Xiaomi Redmi 6 Pro Questions & Answers] JordanRulz:
Try using QFIL (installed with QPST). I hypothesize that the old flash programmer binary (prog_emmc_firehose_8953_ddr.mbn) does not require authentication like the new one. Open rawprogram0.xml with QFIL and follow the instructions to flash your device.

Note, I did not try this myself, try at your own risk.
[Xiaomi Redmi 6 Pro Questions & Answers] coolek33:
I've tried qfil. It will not work. You'll get an error as well. I've ended with flashing while someone else logged to his account via TeamViewer on my pc. It costed me 12$ but he was an honest man and he wanted the payment after job done.

I've flashed China developer roms. Don't remember which one exactly but it was still on Android 8.1. After this I've flashed xiaomi.eu on Android 9 and video recording wasn't working. So I have to flash in fastboot latest China dev to fix it.
[Xiaomi Redmi 6 Pro Questions & Answers] gsrwallet:
Hi, Unfortunately I'm also facing the same problem. I have tried everything from Fastboot to EDL mode nothing works.

As my bootloader mistakenly got locked & Now I'm stuck with blank screen, I have access to EDL Mode on my redmi 6 pro but while I try to flash a stock rom it ask for mi auth account. Sadly I don't have :(

I try to contact the Mi service to provide me the special permission to flash stock ROM on my redmi 6 pro but they say that "No such permission can be granted now"

It would be helpful if you provide me the contact details of the person you used to unbrick your phone via teamviewer.

Global firmware?

One other question regarding the chinese version. I guess the one I bought off aliexpress has already been set up for play store but it looks like there are a lot of features missing. Like when I'm setting up the phone there isn't an option to restore most things like apps and other stuff from my old android (Samsung S6). Looks like only my contacts were restored. So I guess my question is, is there something I'm missing or is this only since this is the chinese version? If the latter is true, can I change the firmware and everything will be alright? I've read somewhere that you can change the firmware by paying a third party (not sure how much or if it even worth it).
[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] shashank1320:
Its all paid services now and funky Huawei cam help to change the region but that may cost more than 55 USD.

[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] SZulu:
There doesn't seem to be a "phone clone" option anywhere in settings-system or anywhere else. So I guess if I really want to make it "global" I have to check out funky Huawei. Thank for the reply though :)

[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] SZulu:
Chinese or global version.

I just got my V20 two days ago and so far I am pleasently surprised. However I ordered the chinese version since it was much cheaper for me. Apart from a minor issue copying everything of my previous phone most things are working as they should. There are a few programs like "find my phone" that apparently don't work in my region(Europe). So here is my question, does anyone know if I'm missing out a lot of options/capabilities? I'm just wondering if it would be worth it to rebrand the phone to the global version. Also can someone that has the global version check if the Icelandic language is an option as the system language on the phone? It's not on the chinese one.

Thanks :)
[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] miststudent2011:
Except Google services most of the major features are same on both variants.

If you want to rebrand I suggest you to wait for few days as some one will find a free method instead of paying methods.

Full view displays are new to the market it will take time for developers to adapt it.

To be frank there is no proper support for notches itself.

And it's gonna be tough for developers to adapt different screen layouts.

Do you get Netflix and other streaming services in HD quality?

[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] miststudent2011:

[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] MadMadhan:
Even I have the same issue .. I also can't stream Netflix in HD though initially I was streaming in HD.

Is there any application in the phone that actually verifies if the phone supports HD content for online media players or not. Can anyone pls check and confirm in app section inside settings.
[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] Mietas2:
Unfortunately there is no such thing. To get HD on Netflix or anywhere else, two things have to happen:

1. Your device needs L1 Widevine security level, that's a hardware thing.

2. Usually service provider needs to verify your device specifically for HD (and Honour View 20 IS certified, as device with Kirin 980).

The second bit is annoying because there a ton of great 1080p devices, especially tablets, that don't get Netflix in HD, because are not certified ;/
[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] MadMadhan:
Hope that our devices get verified in the future ?:rolleyes::confused:
[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] miststudent2011:
Have you recently got any system update ?
[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] Mietas2:
Funny you should ask. I'm sure I had an update when I first powered on the phone, but after factory reset yesterday it says it is up to date (9.0.1.125 C432E1R2P1) even though I've found online, that there have been some updates and build numbers were higher than mine... :confused:

I've just had a thought: I didn't sign up to any of the Honor services/ just skipped through them. Would it matter? Did you sign up to any of them?

My device worked in Netflix HD when I initially bought it. It even worked well after the 48mp AI ultra clarity update. Region is India. I guess there was one update after the 48mp AI ultra clarity patch update. Maybe that could have been the problem?

[LG V20 Accessories] C D:
I have been looking for something to separately store my extra batteries in, and I ended up getting the following, which can be found both on Amazon and eBay: 5 BCW Brand 15 Trading Card Capacity Hinged Box / Holder / Case - BCW-HB15

Compared to the plastic cases that come with official spare battery kits (pretty much impossible to buy those cases separately as far as I know) for this phone and other older ones, these cases seem to be a bit softer and more fragile. I wouldn't expect them to handle rough abuse, but seeing how cheap these are, that shouldn't be an issue.

Each case comes individually wrapped in a plastic bag that can be used to hold the battery and still fit inside the case (see attached photo). I imagine that the thicker versions of this case (maybe the one holding 35 cards) could fit some of the extended batteries that have the same length and width of the original battery.

Yes indeed, the original spare battery cases are impossible to find. I just looked around for something like this a few days ago. Thanks for posting your solution!
