[General Questions and Answers] treechile:
Is there a firewall app that can block just certain connections from an App? I currently use AFwall+ which is great but it is all or nothing (unless you write custom IPtables rules).

I would like the ability to block certain connections like stopping an app connecting to "*.facebook.com" but allowing it to connect to anything else.

On android versions previous to Oreo, the Xposed module XPrivacy could do this. You could white or black list a connection.

My phone is running Oreo 8.1, is rooted and has Xposed, however I would rather not use a firewall app that uses a VPN to work, as I have my own VPN i need to connect to.

To Summerise: Is there an android firewall that works in a restrictive sense, ideally where it asks me to allow or deny each connection the first time it happens?

If you have some spare bucks consider donating, it will be really appreciated: https://www.paypal.me/TugaPower

If you are on other base rom, best practice is to factory reset prior to flash rom and new gapps.

After this steps if rom does not boot, probably you are encrypted, remove encryption and repeat the steps.

If after removing encryption rom still does not boot, make a factory reset again after flashing rom and gapps, then all will be fine.

Also be sure you are using proper firmware.

Relative to gapps, the advised ones is nano package for PIE ( ARM64 ):

Replaced built in OTA by OTA Updates app ( https://github.com/MatthewBooth/OTAUpdates )

OTA updates supported

Browser removed and replaced by latest TugaBrowser ( built in OTA for the Browser ) ( blocks ads and protect privacy)

[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] B@NoS:
If you wipe/format system and data partitions this is clean, it's needed when installing different base is. Best when coming from oos is to update to latest oos ota, then clean flash so you will have latest firmware and vendor.

Firmware contains hardware related drivers/updates, you should always have latest, or at least the one ROM builder wrote in 1st post.

In the 1.7GB you have the firmware included but this is the whole rom.

Hey All,

My S9 won't remain connected to my girlfriends car, a Range Rover Evoque, for more than about 15 seconds since updating to android Pie. It has no problem with other bluetooth connections, including the one in my old car.

Does anyone have any thoughts as to why this might happen?

Incidentally, my girlfriends phone, a P20 Pro, is also having bluetooth connection issues to the Evoque since she updated to pie. Not precisely the same symptoms, but still problematic.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] ScratchyPDX:
I had a similar problem with my smartwatch not staying connected or reconnecting to my S9 after applying the Pie update. I found the following steps fixed this problem:

1) Go to Settings

2) Select Apps

3) Tap the 3 dot menu present at the top right corner and select 'Show System Apps'

4) Scroll down and select Bluetooth

5) Click on Force Stop

6) Click on Storage

7) Click on Clear Cache

8) Restart phone

I hope this helps. Cheers!

[Huawei Mate 20 Questions & Answers] PhoneTechShop:
When u charging leave phone be .. don't do anything with it .. heavy !
[Huawei Mate 20 Questions & Answers] Cici Tnag:
If it supports Quick charging or SuperCharge, your phone may heat up during charging, due to the increased voltage. In order to reduce heat when charging, do the following:

•Avoid using your phone when charging. Using your phone at this time may increase its temperature.

•Charge your phone in a place where heat can easily dissipate (such as on a desk). Avoid charging in places where heat does not easily dissipate (such as on a bed).

•Power off your phone before charging it. Back up your data regularly and update your phone to the latest version available.

•Use a Huawei standard charger to charge your phone.

This sounds like a great idea. I am following the ubports community since a long time and just love the project. I cross my fingers that you succeed. I can't offer any help as I am lacking the brain capicity to code :D but my thoughts are with you. As @ tejjoshii already said, I also believe the porting processs is super complicated.

Have you heard of Maru OS. It's based on lineage os and debian or ubuntu. The building process seems pretty straight forward. You just need to patch the lineage os files with the maru os files. As our device sadyl doesn't have hdmi out we could usegoogle chromecast to mirror it to a screen (that#s how they do it with the nexus 5x)- Maybe that would be for the meantime a good alternative. It combines the good two worlds of android and linux. When you connect it to a screen it boots up a full linux system. It's fully open source :) At the moment the htc 10, samsung galaxy s9, nexus 5 and nexus 5x and some other devices are supported.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] dsvilko:
I know it's not exactly ubuntu touch but I am running a recent Ubuntu installed alongside the Android through UserLAnd app. My phone is not even unlocked/rooted (the app uses proot). Thanks to the fast built-in storage on our phone, it's actually running quite decently. The xfce4 desktop is quite usable and so are the more demanding programs like gimp, inkscape, libreoffice, rawtherapee. The speed is comparable to my older iMac with the i5 processor. As you don't get a direct display access, you start X through vncserver and connect to it through an android vnc client. It's cool that it basically acts just like another android app so you get to enjoy the best of both worlds. It's too bad we can't easily connect our phone to and external monitor like I could with my old galaxy S5.

I've been running a linux distro on my phones for more than 7 years and for me it's one of the coolest things about android - that you can reuse existing linux kernel to run a full linux distribution.

Maybe we have soon Linux (Debian) and lineage os up and running on our beloved pocophone. Connect it to a screen via chromecast and you'll have a proper convergence experience. One of the devs of the maru OS team is interested to port for the poco :)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] dsvilko:
Can someone explain what would maru OS offer that is not already available through UserLAnd?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Linux Klaus:
Please correct me if I'am mistaken I don't have much experience with userland. When you run linux through userland can you mirror it to a big screen? But I believe the difference is that when you start Linux through userland you can't use the android part of the phone at the same time. Is that correct?

With Maru OS I believe it's different. Once you connect your phone with a cable or wirelesse solution to a screen it automatically boot up full linux distro (people are running ubuntu and debian at the moment and some seem keen to experiment with kde). Yo can use still the android part of your phone as regular, do phone calls etc.?

Here is an older video to give you a rough idea:

Mobile data and GPS doesnt work. They havent still made it work in Halium-9 itself. Once its fixed, we ll get that too. You can get my code in this account (https://github.com/ubports-beryllium). You can find the porting status here (https://github.com/ubports-beryllium/projectmanagement/issues/20). There are few extra fixes needed.

Well, the Feb. '19 deal came and went...,literally - I just repacked it for a return back to Amazon. So, I'm updating the thread: the N9 phone I've purchased, just as I suspected, wasn't new. By checking the IMEI and registration @ Samsung I found out that it was assembled in Aug. '18 and the warranty was to expire in Oct. '19., that means it had at least one owner. The IMEI SV was at 04 which wasn't that bad and the phone was in really good, clean condition but I decided to send it back. I like the N9, great phone but they shouldn't wrongly advertise their stuff on Amazon. That's fine, am looking forward into 2019, the market is getting so saturated with all those 'battleships' of smartphones that the deals will only get better.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] mzsquared:
No, I didn't. But I played with the phone for a few hours, downloaded some apps and really had a hard time to put it back into the box for a return. Nice phone, no doubts about it, but I figured I didn't actually buy this phone, the deal was about buying the new Tab A 10.5", I don't have any use for it right now, for a full price of $250 and additionally they were offering me a secondhand Note 9 for a discounted price of $800, plus tax, of course. Nice try. I'll wait for some good deals around 'black Friday', or sooner, on 2019 phones.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] mzsquared:
I had the phone on hand when they delivered it, so I did the usual "about phone" lookup, the Knox, kernel etc.. and all that was fine, except the IMEI SV number at 04 was too high for a brand new phone - the software underwent some changes or modifications after it left the factory, the ideal number is 01. Then I went on the Samsung official website to "register a product" entered IMEI# and it told me when the warranty expires.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] oneandroidnut:
gotcha, the one i bought from ebay was really sketchy i think phone was legit but box was fake, accessories were fake and missing some, no books and phone was in a bag with no plastic. I returned and got another one for $649 hope it is a legit one! We shall see this week!

Edit: Samsung also has $300 off so plus my unidays discount and a few thousand Samsung points and got another for $657 with tax! And $200/40k reward points! Win win! I will probably sell one if you would like one let me know once you get your return taken care of
