[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Ethan140310:
Hey guys have anyone tried to or currently using F2FS on the phone? Do you think it's stable? If so how can I change to F2FS (cause for the love of god I can't find any guide)?

My friend recently change to F2FS on his Mi6X and it's absolutely feels different so I'm quite interested in this atm.

Thank you in advance!
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] spartan268:
Goto the kernel ROMs section and look for arters thread. He has a guide on getting F2FS enabled on the data partition plus with his kernel. Recent reports show you're not bound to his kernel so you can experiment with what works and what doesn't.

Overall you won't expect that much of a performance jump since the OP6 is pretty great as it is but you can judge for yourself :)
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Gionikva:
I had the arter kernel with havoc os for a week and I didn't see any performance improvements, more so, the battery life got a LOT worse than with ext4. Also, you can't encrypt your phone with f2fs and twrp won't be bootable (unless you do it with fastboot boot).
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] James Blode:
I'm using f2fs now... Very stable... Very fast... No bugs encountered so far.... Used f2fs with arter kernel on 9.0.4, then moved with it to Radioactive kernel without any problem.... And now using f2fs with Elemental X 3.11(3.10)... Verrrryyy STABLE... USE IT ONLY ON DATA... AND CAN FLASH EVERYTHING WITHOUT PROBLEMS...
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Ethan140310:
Hey man so what is your experience with ElementalX compared to arter kernel? I think arter is good since he build it from CAF but I also look for another kernel since I need Kcal, cuz iPhone screen spoiled me :v
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] spartan268:
What are you looking for in a kernel?

ElementalX is a very stable oriented kernel. Imagine it like a stock+ type of kernel that you can rely on. And if you like tweaking your own stuff it's perfect since you can do just about anything you need.

I personally have not used arters work but it's almost the opposite. He's moving away from the OP stock work since he disagrees with it. He does aim for better cleaner performance.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Ethan140310:
That's exactly where I'm confusing, OP stock or CAF stock (as Arter mentioned), I'm looking for battery life with stable and consistent performance (the OP is strong enough so I'm not looking forward to boosting it more)
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] tidschi:
I used Arters kernel and RZ, too with F2FS.

But at the end I stick with Smurf. Feels bit smoother at all.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] chrcol:
so is there a howto

I tried changing it in twrp and rebooting and then just get dumped back into recovery.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Ethan140310:
The instructions are in Arter post in the Kernel thread, basically, you format your data as f2fs, and flash f2fa_fstab then boot.

Please look in the thread for detailed instructions
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] chrcol:
that didnt work either, his guide just boot loops recovery. But maybe his only works with his kernel.

But I tried the one in this thread again and it worked second time.

Anybody that is living in the New York City area that has a Univerisal which first can try your Univerisal if it will work on the WCDMA UMTS 2100 Frequency with T-Mobile and let us know in the United States if Univerisal will work on that frequency. That would be greatly appreciated. According to a T-Mobile spokewoman I had spoken today in the Blackberry/PDA Connect Department is you use your existing T-Mobile sim card and just switch over to the WCDMA UMTS 2100 Band Frequency Network on your device. T-Mobile's UMTS frequency is 1700/2100 band in the U.S. In Europe the 2100 band Frequency is used with T-Mobile also. So if you are visiting New York City from Europe your device will work or vise-versa. If you are living in the United States and visiting friends & family in Europe your Univerisal will work. It is compatible either way. T-Mobile's UMTS deployment in the U.S. is the same used as in Europe Here is the URL which I have bookmarked http://www.pcworld.com/businesscenter/article/145495/tmobile_launches_3g_in_nyc.html

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Lochrecan:
I've just got a brand-new OP 6 last night. Everything works fine on this great phone. But there's this one glitch that's getting on my nerves:

I listen to music on Spotify with wired headphones (ATH-M50x). Songs either keep pausing or skipping to the next track while I'm walking. I've made sure to deactivate BT, activate pocket protection, and deactivate the equalizer, as some 5T users reportedly solved this issue in the same way. None of these methods have worked for me. Songs keep pausing and skipping to the next track like crazy. When that happens, I immediately take out my phone to see what's going on. Anyone with the same issue?

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] umka83:
Hi everyone

I like everything about s9 and s10 except horizontal app drawer.I would much prefer vertical and not paginated (or paginized) app drawer, so that i can just scroll through apps like in most other phones.

Can this be achieved with a custom ROM or add on? if so - which one?

Thanks for your advice!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] jdawg334:
The best way to achieve this without rooting is to install a new launcher. The most popular one is Nova Launcher . It lets you choose between horizontal and vertical scrolling and is very customizable in other ways as well. Since you would no longer be using OneUi, IMHO, you lose some functionality of the features samsung puts in the phone doing this however some would see this as a good thing.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] umka83:
Hello,

Thanks for suggestion. Yes I am aware about custom launchers - and i am considering this solution. I was wondering if it is possible to change One UI to vertical drawer before going down that road.

thanks

Sorry, you should have done your research. The Verizon Note 9 cannot be rooted. Probably will never be able to be. The only way to have a rooted Note 9 on Verizon is to buy the international Snapdragon (9600) and bootloader unlock it to flash firmware that will work. If you do buy a 9600, check the Snapdragon development section.

Hello,

I have seen ARCore is now supported on many vivo devices, including the dual display edition, nonetheless it is apparently only available to roms with Google apps preinstalled. So, even though my vivo Nex dual is suppirted, I cannot download arcore.

Is there a way to get it running on my Chinese rom vivo? Will vivo someday put ARCore on their app store? ☹️
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] flmrck:
Hello everyone,

This is the response I got from VIVO regarding this issue:

This is to inform you of the result of your demand. We communicated with our engineers just now, we regret to tell you that NEX Dual Display Edition with Chinese version doesn't support Google ARcore since we don't sigh a contract with Google for this phone. Currently, only some of our phones such as NEX with Global version and Chinese version, and NEX Dual Display Edition with Global version support this feature. Sorry for any inconvenience caused. Hope you can understand it.

Alright, so I have TCPMP on my phone and it works great and all, except for the fact that i don't have videos for it to play on my phone and don't have the software necesary to get those videos onto my phone. I have some .avi divx files that i would like to convert and watch on my phone because they are currently way to big to watch on my little screen (resolution and size) so I just wanted to know which program would be good for me to use on my computer in order to convert the videos for watching on my phone using TCPMP, I have tried a couple in the past (mainly Ashampoo Movie Shrink and Burn 3) and the video quality is fine, but the audio and video are never synched in TCPMP, and even though I have tried using the manual audio/video sync option, I really don't know exactly what I am doing, and would just prefer a video that has it automatically synched well. So what is the best program to use to convert the videos on my computer, for viewing on my Sprint Mogul?
[Mogul, XV6800 General] NotLutzik:
I use SPB mobile dvd. Small and Simple
[Mogul, XV6800 General] kd5ftn:
TCPMP can easily handle full-res divx files.

For example, a friend of mine ;) is about to copy The Daily Show and Colbert Report that he downloaded on bit torrent right onto his phone.

No transcoding necessary.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] killerkhatiby009:
Yea but the problem is, wouldn't the file be much smaller if I shrink the resolution down to the exact size of the mogul's screen, as I like to save as much space as possible, (I have 1GB free on my 4GB card). But thanks for the info, ill try it out.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] NotLutzik:
If u convert it to 320x240 4:3 with 50% quality u looking at ~ 200mb
[Mogul, XV6800 General] atari26k:
I dunno if this exactly what you are looking for, but for converting video files into whatever resolution and format, I use AnyVideoConverter. Freeware version available as well as a "professional" version for a nominal amount.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] ccuser:
sompy is one of many software u can use
[Mogul, XV6800 General] squarerootz:
Have you tried Orb.com yet?

If you have an unlim data plan you could always use www.orb.com to stream the videos to your Mogul. Then you wouldn't have to worry about the format or using space on the phone or the storage card to keep the videos. If you go into the options on TCPMP and check all formats then it will play the streams pretty seamlessly.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] SubwayChamp:
Yes. pie is one step forward. Just a tip; if you try to flash Pie from a wrong firmware using recovery it will fails, won´t mess up your device but won´t boot and you´ll need to format data in order to reboot to system again but in Odin the thing will be more serious, you will get as minimum a panical SmartSwitch recovery screen so better safe than sorry.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] gnarlygamer29:
Ok, just asking to be careful, is it possible to flash pie at my current firmware? It's at the most current... I mean I'm downloading 2 files right now and if I cant do it at this firmware I might as well stop the downloads lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] SubwayChamp:
No, you have to downgrade to CRK1 as stated in the post linked, no matter that CRL1 is newer. Don´t worry about downgrade term so bootloader version is the same.

Look up here https://firmware.science/download?url=48993/1488/SS-N950USQS5CRK1-to-U5DRL7-UP you will notice that the firmware (by the size) is to be flashed through recovery and is from CRK1 (Oreo) to DRL7 (Pie)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] kangi26:
And remember that if you go to any versions of Pie, when the Carriers (AT&T/T-Mo/Spr/VZW) go to the actual release of Pie, you WILL have to flash back to Stock ROM (CRL1) in order to get to it. (Until we can get our hands on the Odin files, but you never really know when that will happen)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sunberg:
I've dug around for this phone too, and found two options for download, however they both require payment. (Easy firmware) after searching online, I found another, official, and free way that you can get the official firmware for the samsung devices through Samsung's smart switch application. The only problem is that the program will only download the rom if you have a available update on your sm-j337a. I'm up to date with the first android pie update on my sm-j337a. If your still waiting for a patch, I would:

Install smart switch both mobile and pc.

Set preferences to preload roms in pc version (download first, then choose to install)

Copy the rom from user 》 documents》 samsung

If this works, please share the rom. My phone is too updated to test it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nevik0101:
Hello this is an old post but hope it helps.

When you are looking for the boot.img that is compatible with your device you have all the right info just don't know how to read it.

The device is the J337A your after you updated Baseband is J337AUCU4ARL1. To know what bootloader Rev. you are on you count 4 spaces past the model number so J337A UCU4 you are on Rev. 4 so just download the appropriate software for that bootloader and extract the AP file with 7zip you find the boot.img in there.

hope this helps.
