Re install Adb and Drivers
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] KoteBegemote:
Hi, I want to get root on xperia xz f8332. The latest firmware 41.3.A.2.192 is installed. I downloaded the zip for 41.3.A.2.192 in which two karnel. Do they differ in anything? Tried to use both. I want to flash without using drm fix, but all the time I get a boot loop. Trying to install MagiskManager v7.5.1.apk with automatic image creation and subsequent flash in twrp also causes a boot loop. Before all this, using root karnel I tried to create my own karnel without drm fix, but to no avail. The last instruction warns about is needed to extract three additional files. I extracted them, but did not quite understand where exactly they needed to be installed, this option does not work for me either. Can you advise something?

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] taker888:
Coming from a Note 9 on android Oreo I've notice none of my apps stays open in the task manager on my S10+. I will find all the apps I had open in the background gone after a few hours, even if I locked them in place from clearing all. This is super annoying! I don't know if its a Android Pie issue, new Samsung issue or just my phone alone.

I am currently set to high performance mode, adaptive battery is toggle off, sleeping apps is off, and auto optimization is also toggle off.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] hitman4274:
No issues here, multitasking works as it should.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] dhorgas:
Yes, this is an issue and it is an Android Pie issue. Even if you have sufficient memory, apps that are unused for a few hours will shut down completely. I see this on my Essential PH-1 as well, and have seen it on other devices too. It's extremely annoying and there is no way to turn off this behaviour. Shutting off all app optimizations and excluding from optimizations, sleep, etc. does not bypass it.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] FernandoJjr:
First of all : I know that this is already explained a hundred times in different topics created around poco's forums. Still, it's not very clear yet to me.

I used to like the MIUI skin and it's features, but lately, because of the bad development in global stable rom and a lot of delay in the updates, I'm planning on going to custom roms.

Last time I used a custom rom was at time of cyanogenmod 13, in my old Moto g (falcon). In that time, I didn't used bank apps, I used to like root apps, root wasn't a problem to banks/Netflix/other apps, my camera didn't had some features like the blur, infrared camera and such things. And that's exact my point. I'm afraid of those things in custom rom: safetypass on bank apps, problems in buggy camera, I'm not used to this "dfe", it's not very clear how to flash,when flash, etc. I'm afraid to lost my IR, I don't want to flash magisk also, but sounds like a very must thing in custom roms lately. I'm atraid to get play store uncertified also.

I like too many features, but I don't plan to use a rom with a lot, because I want a bug free and with good battery and performance too, so I'm going to a stable rom.

Should I use a custom rom or stay on MIUI global stable?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] ranarbot:
Yes Flash A Custom Rom!

It honestly all depends on you, however, if you are concerned with stability I wouldn't be. Poco's root community is really large and most of the custom ROMs that have been around for a while are really smooth. I personally despised using MIUI, it wouldn't have even been that bad had Xiaomi fixed their gigantic screw up with the notification system. Not to mention unnecessary bloat is on the entire OS and its not really much of a stock Android experience. When I buy new phones I only buy ones that can be rooted and romed because thats essential to me. I currently use the Pixel Experience Rom and I have found it to be the best. While the performance of the rom is on par with the other roms available for this device, its animations are much more fluid. Plus the google camera that comes preinstalled in it works flawlessly, and you can always flash the xiaomi camera zip if you want those features. However, if you want more customizability I would opt for another rom like Reserrection Remix.

When it comes to DFE from my experience you don't have to flash it, you would just have to enter in you passcode each time on boot. Not flashing DFE however can cause problems when you want to flash new updates as the device may still be encrytped. Plus the DFE zip includes magisk so you will pass safetynet. Im able to use most banking apps and netflix just fine on my phone. Plus if you are on MIUI right now and have updated to the latest you probably also have L1, which will transfer over to any custom rom you flash. Heres a typical flash process:

1. Backup Data

2. Wipe everthing on the phone except internal storage and format data if needed

3. Flash the rom zip

4. Flash GApps if needed

5. Flash DFE (Which includes magisk)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] FernandoJjr:
Thanks for the information. Tomorrow I'll unlock my BL, and flash probably the PE, or AOSiP. That was very clarifying to me. Just one more question: play store is certified? Because in my last Xiaomi, except for Xiaomi.eu (I didn't had roms like LOS ir RR, just MIUI based), even the MIUI based roms had problems with play store.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] ranarbot:
yes the play store is certified

I am absolutely certain I saw this in the settings a few days ago, but I can't find it now and a search of settings is coming up with nothing.

Basically, it was a way to set up split screen but having both sides of the screen active. This was demonstrated in the settings as having a dancing stick figure in the active window and when I turned on "both sides active" (or whatever it is actually called) then both stick figures started dancing.

Can anyone help me find this setting again? I've been through every single option in the settings and can't see it anywhere!

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] mdiddyshow:
So a quick one here, I have the SM-G975U1 Unlocked Galaxy S10+, and I flashed it to the SM-G975U TMB firmware. So far its ok - the t-mo advanced messaging and voice calling works, but it does say the "your current software version isn't supported. Visit a service center". I did some searching, and I saw there is a SM-G975U1 TMB version as well.

I am a bit confused by this - I thought all unlocked firmware was U1, and carrier branded firmware is U. Has anyone flashed this U1 TMB and got all the carrier features? What is this version?

And a side note, is there no difference between flashing U or U1 firmware between phones, or is it better practice to flash the U1 firmware on U1 devices?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] NICEGYPT:
There is no difference in hardware. U1 will lose some of the tmobile stuff for sure. I have U1 and there is no VoLTE so far. I tried to get virtual vm to work and there is no way. There is no U1 TMB, it's just SIM provisioning. if you want tmobile stuff, you can go ahead and flash their firmware. where do you get this error you mentioned? "your current software version isn't supported. Visit a service center"
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] Shuthefrontdoor:
Volte works outta the box for u1 on tmobile, you won't find an option but it is working, you can check by making a call and it'll be on lte if you have volte, and visual voicemail you can't get integrated into dialer but you can use the stand alone app, only difference is the TMobile bloat bewtween the firmwares and the u1 has the native scam caller
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] NICEGYPT:
So, do you get the HD icon next to the caller's name? I have tried to native visual vm didn't work... Did you get yours to work? if so, what is your app version?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] Shuthefrontdoor:
You won't get the hd icon because that's a tmo firmware thing, doesn't mean volte isn't working, if your lte icon doesnt go away during a call you have volte, as for the VM app just download from playstore
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] galaxys:
^this! Good call!
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] Ace42:
U1 supports VoWifi and VoLTE. No VVM nor Video Calling. The VoLTE indicator is missing, yes, but U1 models have supported it on TMO since S8. RCS is likely not supported by the stock Messenger app.
