overweight?

I want to buy this phone

I heard this phone is very overweight

Is it true?

If you have it plz guide
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] Mackay53:
The phone is morbidly obese
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] invisiblewave:
LOL. Stop fat-shaming it! Weight was one of my biggest concerns coming from a Galaxy S5, and the MM3 is heavy, but you do get used to it after a couple of weeks.

Even Xiaomi apps like YiCam don't work right half the time.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] ack154:
The notification inconsistency in MIUI is one of the biggest reasons that I just listed mine for sale. No matter how many times I've gone through individual app settings and overall notification settings, it never works as expected. And my expectation is only for it to work as the settings that I've selected indicate. It makes me a little sad actually... this was my first Xiaomi device and I ended up liking MIUI way more than I thought I would (especially compared to EMUI... which is complete trash). Oh well... on to the next.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] Philly@52:
I run an app called Notification Repeater(apk) and it seems to address any of the inconsistencies that MIUI has with Notifications(or lack there of). I use another app called AutoNotification(by joaomgcd on the Play Store i believe) to block some notifications such as "x app is diplaying over other apps" that never seem to go away.

I know it kind of sucks to have to find a work around to use a phone when realistically it would be nice if your phone just worked the way you wanted it to out of the box..but since installing these apps i have been more than happy with my current situations when it comes to Notifications.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] pbangelly:
I've also had similar problems. In addition to manually turning on each apps notification in settings (Have to remember this for every time I download an app as well) I've aslo downloaded the app 'Notification Repeater' which has helped significantly. I get absolutely ZERO notifications on the lock screen though which is something I still haven't figured out how to fix without switching ROMs. I hope someone can figure something out.

[Moto G7 Plus Accessories] Dahenjo:
Moto G7 Case, Yiakeng Shockproof Protection Soft Glitter Silicone Slim Full Cover Phone Cases for Motorola Moto G7/Moto G7 Plus 6.2" (Black)

Had this a few days and it seems fine, buttons work well and everything lines up, big improvement over the clear included case. It was one of few in stock yet that said for G7+ too but it's decent enough for now. If Spigen makes a case for this phone (they haven't yet) I'll probably upgrade to it.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] moist_line:
Hello all,

I'm looking for a small phone with a headphone jack and good battery life, and it seems like x compact fits the bill.

Is it holding up well in 2019?

How is the battery life?

Should I update the software? (Some people complained about drain issues)

Would you recommend it or should I get something else like moto x4 instead? Thank you.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] Maciek602:
Battery life is decent, however the phone is laggy and I would not recommend buying it now. It's CPU is just not enough.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] levone1:
I like it. Depends on your goals... I'm kind of surprised to hear that the cpu is not good enough (above). I guess if you're looking for a major gaming phone that you can watch movies on at the same time or something, maybe it's lacking, but I haven't had any lag issues. I mainly use stock-based rom; if you want to always use some AOSP custom rom, the problem is likely with the rom, not the phone. For the size, you won't get anything better, except maybe the XZ1 Compact, which is pretty similar, but costs more, (and I think a little bigger - not sure). Anything Motorola at this size would probably be a downgrade.

The main thing XC has going for it right now is (almost) official Sailfish OS support, with new updates rolling out now.

Overall it's a great phone, but as things move so fast these days, it probably will slip into obscurity at some point soon...
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] moist_line:
Thank you guys. I just want want a phone I can easily put in my pocket when I go jogging or outdoors, for google maps and podcasts, not so much for gaming. I also like how easy it looks to replace the battery on it unlike the xz1 c or current phones.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] Kianush:
well I dont agree with you on that,

Xc is absolutely lag free on Stock Oreo rom, specially for a person who only uses it for daily routines. if you want a perfect phone which is also more durable than xc, you could go for xz1c otherwise X compact is an absolute beauty and beast at the same time!
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] MrCooper95:
It's super fast on stock Oreo. Switching apps is super responsive and loading them is very fast. No lag too. Although the screen refresh rate is not that buttery smooth 60fps. Something that Sony did since the Z3 series to conserve battery.

I say avoid flashing custom ROMs for the X Compact, for now. It's one of these phones that just haven't really improve in any way yet when a custom ROM is used, its very laggy.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] pseudonym58:
No problems with my Xperia X Compact. About as small and light a phone as you're likely to find. The battery life is good under Oreo, and the phone functions smoothly, as long as you're not trying to run too many apps concurrently, as the RAM is 3 GB rather than the more typical 4-6 nowadays. You can also obtain the phone for less than $200 new through eBay, etc.

Although others may disagree with me, I felt that in my own side-by-side comparisons with the XZ1C, photos taken with the XC had less of the dreaded "smear" processing in things such as grass and foliage, a problem that most Sony phone cameras share.

I like this phone so much that I bought a spare.

I would not buy a used X Compact, however, as any phone used for 3 years is likely to have a less than adequate battery.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] TL86:
+1 at recommending this phone. Battery life is quite good, no lags in daily use (YouTube vanced, messengers, web browsing, reading pdf,..). Camera is decent. Even though we don't have ufs storage the transfer speed is fine.

I was surprised that it runs faster than my former Zuk Z2 Pro (SD 820, ufs, 6 GB Ram).

Sometimes mine gets unusual warm and drains rather quickly. This happens maybe every 1 - 2 months for no obvious reason and then vanishes again.

Btw. I'm using stock oreo. Only thing that annoys me is too much bloatware. While you can deactivate most, you can't uninstall it (at least I can't without root).
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] bookworth:
ADB shell

pm clear com.sonymobile.entrance

pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.sonymobile.entrance

This works in Oreo

The names of the packages you will get with any package viewer app.

I wasn't able to remove swiftkey - but perhaps I made a mistake in writing the app name. Don't care about it so much.

EDIT: it seems that as the app was waiting to update in Google Play it did not allow to uninstall it for the current user. After I updated it and it went out of the queue, all went fine.

Works fine and I use it as a phone with apps. At home/work I use a wifi only Moto X4 as the display is slightly larger. Could use any tablet of course.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] pseudonym58:
I have found that disabling any app I don't use will, after restoration of the initial firmware-supplied version, leave a "stub", which is often less than 100 kb. This just serves as a location for downloading the latest version in the event that the app is enabled once more. So, practically speaking, you can reclaim most of the space formerly taken by the now-disabled apps. The only app I've had trouble with in a disabled state has been Swiftkey, so I leave it installed and simply select Gboard, which I prefer.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] Danielandg:
Hi,

I had a bricked phone and I have managed to fix it.

At the moment I have China rom installed which I don't really want to use. It has no Google services and a lot of Chinese apps.

So I just want to double check.

1. I unlock bootloader with the Mi unlock app.

2. Then simply flash global rom with Mi Flash and definitely make sure to only select cleanall.bat and not cleanall_lock.bat.

Is that all I have to do? Some posts recommend different things and some just say do this so I want to make sure.

Thanks,
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] Vuska:
No.. you cannot simply flash Global if your phone chinese version.

Read... so much thread about it and people have brick because of it.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] atttoush:
That's the wrong forum to post.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] Danielandg:
There's like one guy on YouTube that basically says to do this.

Then there's some on a forum that days to do a lot of things.

There's just so much random stuff from many threads that it is hard it know what should be done... That's why I ask here for definite answer.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] arifqur:
Dude I have a Chinese version Mi8 and after unlocking the bootloader I used the eu.miui pie rom and then jumped straight to the custom roms. Also i did format my data by typing yes in twrp after flashing the eu,miui and lost all the stuff on the internal storage, which really did not matter as I had just unlocked the bootloader and everything had been wiped clean anyways.

Been using two Xiaomi phones and have never flashed any MIUI roms only eu.miui and never had any problems
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] Danielandg:
Doesn't matter. Gotta wait 15 days before I can unlock it and flash. Strange as my account was approved some years back to do the same with a Redmi but oh well. I guess I will wait 15 days...

[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] Flash-User:
i've just flashed a chinese mi 8. Just unlock the bootloader, flash TWRP and flash the rom.

i used xiaomi.eu rom for the last one. Now i've a Mi8 explorer edition in my hands and need to wait for the 15 days are gone than i'll flash xiaomi.eu rom here too.

BUT never re-lock the bootloader again after you've flashed a other rom than the orignal rom, your device will brick.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] justintime001:
I have an unlocked Note 9, and I'd like to update to the official Android Pie but it looks like it won't be released until all the carriers have released their updates? Is that accurate?

Also, I do have AT&T service but I also have the Samsung Upgrade program, so if I flash the AT&T ROM for Android Pie onto my Unlocked Note 9, would my device no longer be eligible for an upgrade?

Does anyone have experience with this?

Thanks!

[Xiaomi Mi 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] screwtop:
I have the Mi 9 8G version from China with the stable 10.2.16 China rom.

Unlock the bootloader after 360 hours and flash with Miflash with Global stable 10.2.3.

Now trying to figure how to have a permanent TWRP with decrpt data.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] fp1707:
Ahh thanks for letting me know that global works. I chose Xiaomi.eu.

For me TWRP stayed since the first time I flashed it. Only had to format data once just the first time using it. Since then it's been working fine. Even with finger print and stuff enabled
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] screwtop:
Hi. BTW, which Magisk version have you installed? Now my TWRP is permanent but not able to get Magisk running, both V18.1 and 19 causing bootloop.

Will be trying V18.

Hope it work.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] screwtop:
Update:

Fail to install Magisk from v18 to 19.

When flash v16., reboot to bootloader, cannot boot to Recovery, required to flash by Miflash again to get phone working.

Follow the other thread of flashing rom + magisk = no Magisk after bootup.

Not sure where I go wrong.

I am sorry if I am in the wrong thread.

I was going to buy the Nokia 9 Pureview on release until the Pixel 3 discount put it at $599 and the rumoured price of the Pureview was $699. Now the phones will be the same price with Nokia giving a $100 discount on launch. Important features for me are battery life, camera and compactness. My understanding of the camera comparison can be summed up as: Nokia takes the best stills, Google is more all round.

Which one should I buy.

[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] Clonimus:
Hi,

I have global Honor 9, updated to 8.0.0.379(C432), unlocked and rooted.

Previously in order to get the OTA I flashed stock recovery B364 since it was the recovery of the version I had.

Now I found recovery B368, I couldn't find recovery C432 anywhere. Does it matter? will I be able to get the OTA if I flash stock recovery B368 while I have firmware C432, or will it brick my phone?

Thanks
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] mtvento:
C432 is the code for the HONOR 9 global (STF-L09C432), yor version is B379 and you can extract the recovery from the FULL-OTA firmware file version B379.
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] Clonimus:
How do I do that?

I opened the image file there was no recovery.img

Also, I tried using the "Huawei Update Extractor" but I couldn't figure out what the recovery was (there was no file there called recovery)

Thanks
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] mtvento:
Extract the update.app file from the firmware .zip file you downloaded;

launch the Huawei Update Extractor and select "Unknown" as profile and the extracted update.app as file,

it should read the content and give you a list of files inside, with all the .img ones too.

Right click an the one you need and select extract and the destination.

In case of error opening the file go to the extractor settings and disable header crc checking.

Hope it helps you
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] Clonimus:
I downloaded the Update.zip and update_full_STF-L09_hw_eu.zip from this link.

The update.app from Update.zip file didn't work, it gave the error recovery_ramdis.img: invalid header crc - expected: 16878 got: 54779

So I disabled the header crc check as you suggested, but doesn't it create a risk of corrupted extraction?

I attach 2 pics:

one has no img with the name "recovery", can it be under a different name - this is from the full ROM

The other has multiple recovery img files, none is "recovery.img", they have different prefixes (similar ones, like RAMDI and RAMDIS), which one do I need to use? is it different than "recovery.img"?
