[General Questions and Answers] shonkypenguin:
Hi,

My current Google account for my Android phone is an old Gmail address that I haven't used in over 10 years. I've had a newer account all this time. But every time I buy a new phone, I'm forced to have to enter the old account in order to transfer the backups across from the previous phone. So then it becomes the primary account on that phone too. And the next phone, and the next.

I'm sick of it, and just want to be rid of that dumb old account, and use my current Google account instead.

The problem is that if I try to remove it in settings, I get a threatening warning message. I've been researching online, but I'm not really sure what it entails. Will I lose all my data? All my apps? Will I have to completely set my phone up again from scratch, repurchase all my apps and configure them again, and lose all my saved app data? What about my SMSs? And if so, why? Why do we have to be stuck with our entire phone running off a really old dumb account that we don't use anymore?

Is there any way around this? Thanks in advance,

Hey guys,

I just got my Mi 9 today and I noticied that the instagram stories are being cut off from the sides because the screen is 19.5:5 and most stories are 16:9.

Does anyone have found a solution for this yet?

Thanks!

It happens on all phones with screen aspect ratio other than 16:9.

Hi,

I finally got the pass through feature on active sync 4.5 to work. The strange thing is that the feature only works when using the HTC Home plugin (the weather app), Opera Mini, the Java Based Gmail application. But whenever I try to use PIE or SPB Insight application...I can never got those applications to connect.

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong. The phone seems to be dectecting the computers internet connection, but it is only working with certain applications - I think the only applicaitons that it doesn't work with is with PIE and SPB Insight.

Can anyone help?

Thanks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] charley000:
Got passthrough to work with activesync 4.5

You gave me the clue when you said it worked with opera, gmail, etc. I disabled the proxy (go to programs, proxy and "remove proxy").

Then everything worked including PIE.

[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] forawesome:
Hi all, I have a fairly new Moto X4 that I've been playing around with. I installed Havoc-OS 2.3 at first, but managed to screw up the /cache partition somehow while installing it. Everything seemed to work fine, but when I went to wipe the cache/dalvik to update to Havoc-OS 2.4, I noticed a warning that the /cache file was missing. I've since moved on to LineageOS, and got the same warning while trying to wipe the cache before installing it.

Everything seems to be working fine, but I'm worried about problems down the road. Any ideas how to recreate the /cache partition on this phone? Thanks!
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] roy331:

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] bibo3002:
I finally solved the problem i encountred with my mi mix 2s regarding LTE & 4G Bands and connection .

I just flashed a modem.img file extracted from the lasted rom posted on xiaomi.eu

https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/9-3-28.49842/

i just used this command on fastboot

fastboot flash modem modem.img

After rebooting i got the LTE signal working correctly.

Just give it a try if you have the same problem

Thanks
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] Lars_TD2:
Which baseband version do you have after that? Which network provider do you use? Thanks!
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] Lars_TD2:
I have a Mi Mix 2S, M1803D5XA, 8/256GB model, bootloader unlocked, running Global Beta ROM 9.3.28 with baseband version AT4.0c2.6-303-0325_2303_ea9c837. The network operator is Telefonica/O2, the service provider is 1&1. LTE coverage mostly B20/800Mhz, rural area.

After losing 4/LTE connection, my phone does not reconnect automatically with the available 4G/LTE network (B20, 800 MHz). I have to change the default preferred network settings (LTE/TD-SCDMA/UMTS) to "LTE only" or "LTE/CDMA/UMTS (auto) PRL" and only then the phone reconnects to the available 4G/LTE network immediately. Rebooting/restarting the phone also helps to reconnect. So I think I have to restart the modem to trigger a reconnect. If I just put the phone on the windowsill and wait for it to reconnect the modem sometimes seems to "freeze". The phone indicates a 4G/LTE connection (four out of five reception bars), however, there is no internet connection. Again, rebooting/restarting the phone helps.

Also, if the phone has to switch from 4G/LTE to 3G or 2G it does not aggressively try to reconnect with "better" networks. "Upgrading" the connection to a 4G/LTE network takes quite some time.

I wonder why the default preferred network is "LTE/TD-SCDMA/UMTS" anyway because there is no TD-SCDMA network in Europe. I think it should be "LTE/CDMA/UMTS (auto) PRL", again, I don't know whether this is part of the problem or just irrelevant.

I noticed this issue mid-January-ish, I do not know whether it can be linked to the Mi Mix 2S' SAR value issue that was discovered by some French authorities ...

Thanks,

Lars
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] Lars_TD2:
Being totally frustrated led me to reverting my Mi MIX 2S (M1803D5XA, 8/256GB model) back to the Chinese Beta ROM 9.4.12 yesterday evening, completely wiping the phone and locking the bootloader in the process.

Today, I've tested the "reconnectivity" a few times and surprisingly (?) the phone now works as expected, or at least much better. After completely losing the 4G/LTE connection inside a building (this was also expected) the phone immediately reconnected to the available 2G network and then to the available 4G network upon leaving the building with almost zero lag.

Chinese Beta 9.4.12 comes with baseband version AT4.0.c2.6-303-0409_2210_8fadd5d.

[LG G7 One Questions & Answers] dakotapod:
I grabbed this because I needed a new phone and it was the best option without having to spend several $100 for upgrade. I know the phone is stripped down and some features are removed. But the UI is crippled too? The settings are has maybe 1/3 of the options I had in my G5. Did they cripple the software as well as hardware? Seems kind of a crappy thing to do.
[LG G7 One Questions & Answers] Professorbondo:
Short answer, no.

Long answer:

The G7 one is an Android one phone. A pure Android experience, as they say.

Android one phones use the actual Android UI from the Android open source project (AOSP)

Everything else is the OEM / vendor modified UIs.

It comes without the bloatware of OEM and carrier software. Updates are supposed to be monthly for security.

That said, you will not get all the bell and whistle gimmicks of other phones and some setting may be different. But you can find apps to take care of most things not done by the UI / OS natively.

The hardware is fantastic if you ask me. I get 7- 8 hours screen on time on a charge.

Use a gcam port to get the best out of the camera.

Graphics and gaming are fine for me.

Throw on a custom launcher like nova or whatever gets you to where you want to be, UI wise.

I've been pretty impressed with this phone so far.

Granted it took some getting used to.
[LG G7 One Questions & Answers] dakotapod:
Thanks. I do like it's bloat free. But in the actual settings it's disappointing. But I get the reasoning. Being android I'm sure there is little I can't just add.
[LG G7 One Questions & Answers] ToddEDM:
The G7 One is an 'Android One' phone, it has stock android, it will not have the same menus or settings as your G5.

Recently am noticing that when I connect my huwai mate 20 pro to my sync 2(ford endeavour)* the whole application is pushed down to 0.5 inch and there is a white bar on that place...i can see all android buttons but* inside region is pushed down. It seems like the notification area is consuming that white space. When I remove and add the app it works for some time, but again it goes back to the old stage.. The problem is the apps like Google maps are pushed down, also even in night the white bar is highly visible and its a distraction.
