[Sony Xperia XZ2 Questions & Answers] MartinX3:
If you have the original packet with the phone name you see the hardware revision somewhere.

At least revision 2 is okay.

Revision 1 was not available for sold.

You can use xperifirm to download the latest firmware and newflasher v13 to flash the phone in download mode.

You'll find the download mode manual in the TWRP thread. :)

Feel free to flash the phone country you want but maybe a different firmware needs a full wipe.

And what's important, remove the userdata.sin if you don't want to full wipe the phone.

But a full wipe may fix your bugs.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Questions & Answers] Harper55:
Thanks a lot for the answer. no risk to brick the phone if i do a mistake or something goes wrong ? i want to update the phone to Pie should i look directly for the Pie update ?
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Questions & Answers] Harper55:
and i also read that it was possible to fix it by using the "repair" Function on Xperia companion which way should i go for ?
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Questions & Answers] MartinX3:
Of course you can try the repair function.

About the brick.

The worst thing happen is that you need a full wipe to fix a bootloop.

But btw I recommend a fullwipe after pie upgrade in your case and Everytime if you switch an entire Android version
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Questions & Answers] Mario.D:
Maybe your phones bootloader have been unlocked.

Then it will fail on OTA and also in Xperia companion.

[Greenify] devsk:
I am trying to understand why apps restart instead of resuming from where they hibernated. I thought the point of Greenify was to not kill the app but to hibernate it and resume it later from the same point.

A simple case of reproduction of this is: start playing a puzzle in andoku, hibernate it in greenify and move back to it. It goes back to the main screen and not show the screen of that specific puzzle that I was solving before gibernate.

Is greenify even working?
[Greenify] TNSMANI:
Did you try the shallow hibernation or normal hibernation?
[Greenify] DB126:
Yes, Greenify is working on many (tens of) thousands of devices. Likely YOUR device, rom or kernel is aggressively clearing memory due to limited resources. What are you using?
[Greenify] devsk:
I tried both but app restarts instead of resuming.

What's your definition of working? It runs and does something or works as in if an app is hibernated and started, it resumes. If its the latter, its clearly not working...:)
[Greenify] DB126:
Not going to engage on this level. Greenify stands on its own merrits.

If not happy with the results nor willing to share device/rom/config info that might help with 'problem' determination then it probably ain't the right tool.
[Greenify] devsk:
Are you able to resume any app from EXACTLY the same spot as you hibernated it from, after you manually hibernate it?

Aggressive OS/ROM does not matter. We are talking about a single app, hibernate manually, try to resume right away. The example of andoku I gave is a small app which does not require a whole lot of memory. So, I should be able to resume it right after hibernating it.
[Greenify] Oswald Boelcke:
Just for interest, I'd downloaded and installed Andoku. Greenified Andoku. Played a few minutes and stopped within the game. Closed Andoku. Ensured Andoku was hibernated. Opened Andoku and was able to resume my game exactly at the point where I'd closed Andoku.

Just for completeness although most likely unimportant in this matter: Andoku had no internet access granted in AFWall+.

Personal conclusion: Greenify (currently on v4.6.3) works exactly and perfectly as advertised!

Personal remark: I concur with @Davey126. Unless you provide sufficient information about device, ROM, kernel and "configuration" (e.g. Magisk, Xposed, XprivacyLua, tools that restrict permissions, services, broadcast receiver etc.) most likely nobody is able to support you.
[Greenify] DB126:
Android hibernation is not the same as Windows hibernation. Resumability is not assured - especially on a resource constrained or highly 'tuned' ROM. You should probably read up on how it works and the primary objective of Greenify which is to suspend unwanted background activity. In that respect it shares many characteristics with doze.
[Greenify] devsk:
Did you use the pause/resume feature of the Andoku game or did you just click the game to start it again, and it resumed where you left off? Typically, if you resume using the game's feature, you have to click through 3 times to resume your game. If the app is resuming from where it left off, its 1 click just to start the game.

If you resumed the app as if you switched to it using app switcher, then something definitely is broken on my end.

I do the same.

I am stock Pixel 3 XL with Magisk 18.1 root. Nothing else. I have given all perms needed by greenify.

I think this is where likely the disconnect is. I started using greenify several years ago (I have been here on these forums for a while, I keep that dated forum reference in my signature for remembering how far android and this community has come). If I recall correctly, I used to be able to resume apps, just by clicking or switching to them. Now, I notice a different behaviour: the app restarts from scratch. That's all. Obviously, I preferred the app to not start but resume like I was just switching to it.
[Greenify] olliebean:
I don't know if this is relevant in this case, but doesn't Greenify in non-root mode just force stop apps? I believe this to be the case because I can see it happening; i.e., when hibernation is triggered, for each app hibernated the app info screen briefly appears and the warning dialog about force stopping an app flashes on screen momentarily.
[Greenify] DB126:
Correct. The equivalent happens on rooted devices just in a more efficient and largely transparent manner. If the ROM later opts to recover some/all of the resources consumed by the 'hibernated' app standard Android memory mgmt rules apply. In most cases that means only critical pointers are retained which may or may not contain sufficient information to resume from the point the app was in when last in the foreground.
[Greenify] olliebean:
But AIUI, force stopping an app is essentially killing the app process. So for the app to start afresh when next launched, rather than resuming from where it was left, would be expected behaviour.

Is Greenifying an app functionally better than disabling Background Activity from the app's Battery Usage page (a new setting in Oreo)? IWHT the latter achieves the same result but without killing the app.
[Greenify] devsk:
I am running root mode. So, let's not talk about non-root mode.

If a hibernated app is going to restart from scratch instead of resume, I might as well just clear all apps (that I fed to Greenify) on screen off with 5 min delay using tasker/automate. Why bother with anything else?

The point of Greenify was to be able to resume the app after hibernate as if you just switched to it. This used to work, I have tested it in the past. Not anymore though.
[Greenify] DB126:
Well, no ... but this is not the place for that discussion. Not going to get into Android 101 or validating speculation around various actions.

---------- Post added at 05:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:52 PM ----------

Sorry it is not working with your device/kernel/ROM/root solution. Could be an adverse interaction with the doze mechanisms in Android 9, aggressive memory management settings (eg: VM, LMK), resource mapping of the app(s) you are trying to hibernate, etc. I have not see a lot of feedback from Pie users as doze generally addresses rogue background activity and corresponding power drain. So the behavior may be different on that platform. I use Greenify on a variety of devices for other reasons for which it continues to work well. Just another tool in shop; appropriate selection is the key to success. Good luck.

[Android Head-Units] hemidreamer:
I'm buying a Android head unit for my BMW E46 and I've heard good things about Xtrons units(I'm from EU). Xtrons sells two head units under same product code: PA7846BIP. One has Android 8.0 with 4GB RAM 32GB ROM and the other one has Android 8.1 with 2GB RAM 16GB ROM. If they both ran same OS I would buy the one with most RAM. Is there any reason to get the one with Android 8.1?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Arnaldo Cardoso:
My MI A2 crashed on the home screen, so I thought to use the flash mi and put the rom stock in it to get back to the original, I had root and bootloader unlocked.

I used the xiaomi aplacative and installed the original rom, it worked but my fastboot mode disappeared, instead it's just a black screen.

Does anyone know a way for me to recover fastboot? I want to use gcam, for that I need root.

I think I'm in EDL mode which I entered to install the stock rom, but now I do not know how to get back to the fastboot.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Pcazila:
Send pics i had the same problem it's black fastboot And mi.com logo
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] SakuraSa233:
If you are in EDL mode, you could flash stock via MiFlash.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] verttl:
Your fastboot should be working fine eventough it only shows black screen. If you flashed stock in EDL-mode it leaves splash partition out and that's why you have blank black screen in fastboot mode. You just need to flash splash.img in fastboot mode using code:

fastboot flash splash splash.img

.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Arnaldo Cardoso:
I was able to solve the problem

I was able to solve the problem, I used the toolkit for the MI A2 provided by the friend "Daha3ker", I used the version V 1.0.5. This tool literally revived my smartphone and returned it to stock rom, until I was able to upgrade via OTA to the February update.

In the Toolkit menu I used option 3 (UNBRICK / REVERT TO STOCK). I want to express my thanks to Daha3ker for developing this tool and thanks to XDA.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Amjad.AbdulGhani:
I wanted to share this experience for others to be aware of it and maybe to discuss some different experiences with other users.

Upon receiving my S10+, i enrolled my finger and have been using the phone for 2 days now.. I noticed that its almost a hit or miss, and many times it asks to keep my finger longer or press harder.. ALL THAT WHILE THE ORIGINAL SCREEN PROTECTOR IS ON, the one that comes installed with the phone.. It really bothered me given that i know for sure it should be better..

I remembered that i already bought 2 screen protectors, Ringke Dual, and Spigen film. And honestly that OCD kicked in with the original screen protector having a hole cut around the front cameras, so i looked at the Ringke dual and the screen protector covers the front camera (not that it matters because its very thin).

I applied it now after removing the original one. And its DAY AND NIGHT in difference with how fast and accurate the finger print reader is. Not a single miss or ask for longer hold..

So the way i see it, yes the ultra sonic definitely works great, but its best performance will be with a thinner screen protector ( Samsung original factory applied one is definitely thicker than the Ringke one)

I wonder how that will affect if others went with the UV glass screen protectors.. YES IT WILL WORK, but i advise them to try the finger print scanner for few minutes before installing it, when the screen is totally naked vs after installation.. To see themselves.

The Thickness of the screen protector is definitely a big factor, given how minimal the difference in the thickness in my trial.

Its a matter for discussion here, and to help others choose whats right..

(i dont sell or related to any seller or any brand and am not marketing or linking anything here)
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] oakleyguy89:
Dang, I get my screen protectors custom cut at a local cell phone place and they are fairly thick. I paid them $20 and I get screen protectors for life.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] dmb219:
That's good to know. I'm surprised the phone comes with a screen protector if it interferes with the sensor. I don't usually use one, I'm pretty easy on my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lembo:
I heard on CNET today that Samsung is aware of the 'hit and miss' fingerprint scanner and there should be an update for the time of sale (8th).

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] dansan382:
I never heard of the Ringke Dual, just watched a bunch of youtube videos and im insanely impressed. you say it doesn't effect, but in fact made your fingerprint reader experience better?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Amjad.AbdulGhani:
Its because its thinner than the original one, and definitely thinner than glass or the wet films.. I think when it comes to ultrasonic, microns matters in thickness..

Its a screen protector by Ringke.. Try searching and you will find it..

Maybe other brands with the same material and thickness will work as good too..

[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] CTR640:
Hello everyone,

it's been 3 years ago since I've been rooting my Huawei P8Max and still have it and working fine. Although the stabilisator of my camer is out of place so it's making buzz sounds when using the camera and making bad photos. But also outdated too?

Anyway, I'm looking for a new phone and now it's between the Mate 20 and the Mate 20X. However... it's the same story again with the P8Max: not available for purchase here in the Netherlands.... What a $@#*& joke! If I buy one from Chinese webstore, I may end up having Chinese apps with Chinese characters in lock screen and chinese characters in 'Configs - apps' which I cannot remove it despite I rooted it.

So what is the best place to buy the Mate 20X? German Mediamarks doesn't send to the Netherlands? Amazon? Or other places?

And what about the root possibilities? Has it changed much? Possible to root either the Mate 20 or Mate 20X? What can I do if rooted?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Governa:
You can buy in Mediamarkt.de and use a package forwarding service like Mailboxde.com
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] CTR640:
Can you explain more on how? I live a bit too far from the Germany borders so if I have to go over there, I can't. I don't own a car too.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Governa:
Register on Mailboxde.com , they will provide you with their German address and a code. Order online from Mediamarkt.de and use the address Mailboxde provided, and in the name field put the code. Once they receive the package, it will be reshipped to your Dutch address for a fee. 15-20 Euros if I recall, depending on size and weight.

Read their website, it explains all in detail.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] yetiweston:
I believe you can buy it off clove and they are also including the m-pen and flip case cover. There are normally quite a few available from either Norway or Switzerland on eBay that have international shipping.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] wpkwolfseye:
Why is that device so little spread with stores ? I bought it in the end at Saturn here in Germany, and I know its available at Mediamarkt. But then thats almost the same store these days.

But other than that, its hardly anywhere available in stores, local or online. How come ?

Is it that new ? I dont know when it was released here in germany. But since the above big local stores have it, why not more ? And especially online stores. Is that phone going to be one of those hardly introduced ones ?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] CTR640:
Exactly my thoughts. I thought Huawei has learned from the Huawei P8Max which was way to hard to get it and yet it happens with the 20X too!

I bought mine on Chinese webstore and I won't make the mistake again as I know there are European, Global and Chinese version. I didn't knew that back in 2015.

Mine was Chinese and it contained a lot of chinese bloat and apps I don't understand. German Mediamarkt sells the Mate 20X but Dutch Mediamarks doesn't?? Wtf?? Now I either got the choices to get it from European eBay sellers or Amazon.co.uk. I am only worried about the warranty between the countries and some has reported they got problems with the OLED screen after 4 days of use. And another thing is, I thought the Mate 20X has theTwilight version too but nope, only in silver and blue and I've seen the Mate20 Twilight in real store and I like it. So after a week of searching lots of informations and all, I'm thinking to go for the Mate20 here in the Netherlands to save myself from lots of troubles and headache. Shipping also takes long too :/

After gathering the info, this is what I've been told:

AL-00 is Chinese version

L29 is Europer version or non-Chinese
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] wpkwolfseye:
I never understood why there is always these differences with smartphones. Its like here in germany, when there is a new Smartphone introduced, its usually that we dont get all the colors (why the hell not???) or we only get the 256 GB version or only the 128 GB version or this or that, the other versions are always available in other countries only. I dont get it. Nowadays its slowly getting a bit more in regards to colors, that its not usually only the black, white & silver (or grey) version of phones that you can get here. But still, with a lot of phones its still the usual "This Version is not available here!" or so.

People are tired of only the basic colors by now. From different-size memory on the phone models i dont even wanna start, you only always get one model or maybe two, while there are in fact 3 or 4. Who decides what amount of memory people here "would want" to have, or which color we can get and why.

I am glad i found the Mate 20 X in Saturn & Mediamarkt in town, so I had it easy in this case. I could simply go there and buy it, but honestly i would have preferred ordering online with Amazon.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] CTR640:
I think I made my choice: I'll go for the Mate 20 Twilight in my country to save myself lots of troubles and headache and eventually shipping when something is broken or some problems on the OLED screen of the Mate 20X. Just the colors black, blue and silver are simply boring, all my family have the basic black or grey colors of their iPhone, Samsung and Huawei. It would have been an insta-buy if Huawei sells the mate 20X Twilight in Netherlands too but nope, their logic is flawed, big time. #@&* it.

Is the Mate 20 root-able? And what can I do with it once it's rooted? Or should I keep it stock? I do know for sure it will have no more the chinese apps and characters like my P8Max have when I bought it from gizok. My cousin has the P10 from our country and he has no gibberish apps and I also have seen the Mate 20 in real life in a store, so beautiful phone :eek: And 3.5mm audiojack too!!!
