[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] mcampos7:
Just wondering if anyone has figured this out. It is beyond ridiculous to have to wake up my phone in order for for a notification to come though. I am noticing this mostly with Gvoice and Gmail. My most frequently used and important apps. Connected to wifi 99% of the time as coverage is terrible in my area. All battery optimization is turned off. Also, it is intermittent. Most times things come through fine. For example. I woke up in the middle of the night and looked at my phone and I Gvoice message went off as soon as I woke it up. In this case the message was coincidentally sent right then, but that is the same behavior I have been experiencing when a message is delayed. Phone and watch are quiet, wake phone, suddenly my watch and phone go off with one or more notifications from one or more apps.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] sliding_billy:
The one thing I have noticed is that push notifications get effed up for certain apps and I have to turn off app notifications, fully close app/clear cache, re-enable notifications and turn the app back on/reboot.

Hello, I was wondering if anyone had a source for a new speaker for a 6700. I was listening to internet radio one day and it stopped playing all of a sudden, apparently, it burned up the speaker because it hasn't worked since. Any ideas?

I Am Having The Same Prob I Dont Think Its Your Speaker Mine Is Doing The Same But If I Give It A Slap It Works For A Wile And Stops Again
[XV6700, PPC-6700 General] netdata:
Speaker

To the poster above - dont hit the phone, if its a short you will just help break the already fragile wire, you might still be able to repair by soldering a new dab of solder on the speaker connector.

There is also a software bug, I first noticed after installing Skyfire, sometimes

you can glitch the audio to work again by playing around with various audio programs or doing a soft/hard reset.

It is most likely related to the drivers not being as up to date as the diamond/mogul etc...

Now if someone can figure out what the problem is and come up with a hotfix,

that would be super.

Is there a debugger that shows hardware calls we can look and try to isolate this problem?

For those having an actual hardware problem, I will post the URL of a chinese aftermarket supplier here in a few days, I have heard one exists.
[Sony Xperia X Questions & Answers] A Good Kid:
So I wanted to conclude and to all of us come together and decide/suggest which is the best ROM for performance, daily usage, battery life.. In my opinion at first when switching from 118 to 252 and then back, I felt more power with 252.. It is fast, but its actually slower if you compare it to 118(when 118 is debloated) ,when 118 isn't debloated it's not that good compared to 252..so if you wanna use latest software then you should root and debloat it 100%..maybe there's other roms out there that are better than these two, but I Dont know no more.. At first actually 252 was beating 118 in antutu and geek bench.. But now 118 kicks ass when it's debloated and thermal mod is applied..
[Sony Xperia X Questions & Answers] realthrash:
Definitely Nougat 252, Oreo 118 it's like a oven and laggy af

[Sony Xperia X Questions & Answers] Gray47Maxx:
If you're tired of clean stock, the best ROMs are either XGEN or eXistenZ. Both are great, fast and stable.

XGEN is cleaner and has less functions, but eXistenZ offers much more features and all kinds of tweaks for battery and performance.

And if you're into custom ROMs, then only LOS 15.1 by Chippa_a. Being based on stock, it's the best custom ROM out there, offering a solid experience and performance. Only the cam is a little bit worse, but that can be fixed by using a good camera app.

SODP-based ROMs are one big mess right now, imho.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Accessories] drjoe1:
I have a Tab S4, so I'm posting this question here, but it really is a general android question, so if anyone knows a better forum to post at please let me know....

So I use otg dual drives to copy files back and forth between my phone, tablet and PC. I've had errors galore including scrambled data and a fried thumb drive issues started on my Tab S2 and seem worse on my Tab S4. Both my primary drives were SanDisk. For the S2 it was an Ultra Dual USB / micro drive for the S4 it was the Dual ultra with adaptor to USB C as well as a USB C to USB 3.1 dual drive. They are both formatted exFat32.

I always eject from windows. On the tablet, I usually use ES File Explorer, and use the eject button therein.

On the PC, it almost always pops up with the warning "your drive has problems, click to scan for errors" and scanning lead to scrambled files.

On ES File Explorer, it usually is detected initially as both an sd card and a USB drive; the card designation disappears after you select the drive. Usually you hit eject and the drive drops off the list, but sometimes it reappears as an SD card. Then I can't eject it, even through Android settings, and files always are scrambled when I disconnect. In the worst case, the USB Ultra drive was locked read-only and had to be exchanged by RMA.

So what is causing all the problems? Is there a safe way to transfer files with a flash drive? Or do I need to figure every third or fourth time I'm going to lose all the files on the drive?

Thanks

Joe
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Accessories] ilabstudios:
I know I'm bumping an old thread, but I would like to point out, ES File Explorer is to be avoided! The app was great many years ago, but then they introduced so much bloatware.

I use FX File Explorer. Developers are US based. They provide error handling on file transfer corruption. If I am doing a large file transfer I will use copy/paste, which is safer.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Accessories] drjoe1:
Yes, since I originally posted this thread, ES File Explorer has been pulled from the Play Store. I've since switch primarily to Solid Explorer. Granted they are Eastern European., still not American. There are features I miss from ES File Explorer, but I haven't had any problems with my USB storage devices since I made the switch. I think the eject function in ES File Explorer was the culprit. In Solid Explorer, "eject" takes you to the Android storage settings where you dismount the memory stick. It isn't as convenient as an eject button within the explorer app, but it seems to be much more reliable. Not only have the file scrambles gone away, but I no longer get the message that the stick needs to be error checked.

Thanks

Joe
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Accessories] dboyrusky01:
do you why it was pulled?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Accessories] drjoe1:
The Chinese publisher had all their software pulled for violating Google Play Store policies including not identifying the real publisher names, and fraudulent ad-click behavior.

My Tab S4 cant copy files back to OTG Flash drive !!!!!!!

Ok I have a Sandisk dual drive and m using it on my Tab S4. it copies data from the Pen Drive to the internal and Micro SD card but when I try to copy anything from the Tab onto the Flash drive it shows "Operation not Possible"............ Weird Issue. Any Solutions guys??? :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Accessories] drjoe1:
So a number of the stupid questions that always need to be asked :

Is the drive formatted for exFat 32? If not reformat it.

Do you always properly eject the drive from Windows and unmount it from Android? If not, it may need to be reformatted.

What file manager are you using?

Does it work using a USB 3.0 hub or a USB 3.0 to USB C adaptor?

I find I get the best results by installing and removing the drive systematically:

1) Insert the drive

2) Wait for the tablet to recognize the drive. In the upper left status bar you'll see the USB icon and if you swipe down it will say "SanDisk USB Drive, Tap here to transfer media files" Don't bother tapping to transfer, just move on to #3.

3) Open your file manager and copy to / from the drive. I like Solid Explorer because it opens two locations side by side. Choose internal memory or SD Card for one side and the USB drive for the other.

4) Close the file manager

5) Swipe down and press the down arrow next to "SanDisk USB Drive" "settings" and unmount the drive

6) Wait until the pop-up says unmounted before you unplug the drive

I sometimes get read errors if I skip step #2 above. You can scramble the drive if you fail to dismount it (or manually eject it from Windows)

Good luck,

Joe
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Accessories] drjoe1:
This is old, but I'll update it. I've had the USB notification on the status bar disappear from my Tab S4 and S10 Edge. It reappeared on my Tab S4 after the Android 10 update. Ot sure why it went away or why it came back. While it is gone you have to go to Android settings, device care, storage, advanced, and unmount the USB drive. Your file manager may have a shortcut - Solid Explorer does; press the three dots next to the drive name in the drive list and press unmount and it takes you directly to the Android settings screen.

[Android Head-Units] lechy:
Hi all,

So I managed to successfully root and dump various bits of firmware etc over the past few weeks and generally had no issues(apart from the LED front panel lights not working(did at first), which is the main reason I was trying to rectify) - I have flashed from USB using a .bin also dumped preloader and rom etc via a scatter file using SP Tools after finding a rom entitled 8277L in the filenames, this worked perfectly(but still without the LEDS's) - Link to bought device(a cheap chinese one) - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Single-O...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649

Main issue: Now I have bricked it - I selected the format all part in SP-Tools thinking it would allow me to flash from fresh to stop the stock and TWRP recovery from timing out(I successfully ported TWRP over, but after about 30-40 seconds it was rebooting the device, bizarre!) - When the head unit is powered on it turns on the display but that is all, just a light black screen. I've tried recovering again via USB and SP tools but I think I'm almost out of luck. SP Tools doesn't read from the device or detect it, and yes I have the correct drivers installed under Windows. No screen swiped or button presses help in getting into any bootloader or update mode.

I am really hoping, anyone could help identify the UART pins on the board - yes I've now taken it all apart - in the hope I can flash a bootloader image which I guess is what is now wrong and has been erased??

I've really been digging into this and researching on Russian websites and getting lot's of interesting information including from XDA thankfully, but not this issue. I have included some pretty much hi res images, some are dark but I have redone some, everything is readable but I've googled and googled for model/part/serial numbers etc and have had no results that helped to indentify where I could potentially find the UART connection.

If anyone has the same unit or similar it would be great to share the knowledge so perhaps we can help bring the info together and help other debrick this device if there are any!

Many thanks, for anyone who cares take a look!

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] a_mayorga:
Hi everyone, I have a problem with Bluetooth audio, whenever I use wireless earphones and put the phone in my pocket (sometimes it happens with the phone lying on the table), the audio starts chopping every 3-5 seconds and it's very annoying. Right now I'm using the Xiaomi Mi Air Dots Pro but this has also happened with the Mindkoo MK-BE01.

I've already googled this issue but I had no luck except for this post explaining something similar but on the Mi A2 Lite. https://xdaforums.com/mi-a2-lite/help/bluetooth-audio-issues-pie-t3886132

I've also found posts for other phones (Pixel and S8/S9 mainly) with the same issue and I have tried the fixes I found there (clearing Bluetooth data and cache, removing Bluetooth from battery optimizations, pairing the earphones again) but none of them work.

I'm on Pie with the February security update. I can't tell if this problem was present in Oreo because I didn't use wireless earphones back when I was using Oreo.

Is anyone having the same issue? Does anyone know how to fix it or what is causing it?

Last time I reset my phone it took forever to reset. Try redoing the process but give it plenty of time. Also, don't worry about it heating up.

If you had any message saved on the phone you won't be able to view it after a reset.

Try taking these precautions next time you reinstall firmware:

Make sure you have the right firmware for your country code (it's usually on a sticker on the box or when you go in download mode: power+volume up+bixby)

Make sure you have the latest Samsung Drivers for Mobile installed on your pc, this usually leads to bootloops if not installed before flashing

Ensure you have the original cable that came with the box connected as it has information that's not found on other wires

Make sure you have the most recent version of Odin. I recommend uninstalling anything you have on your pc and reinstalling the files from the beginning so nothing mixes up

These really helped when I got MY phone stuck in a bootloop...twice...

I'm trying to restore my RCA Neptune tablet RCT6603W47M7 back to its original state using SP Flash Tool, but I'm having some difficulties in the process. I've tried reinstalling drivers, different cables and different USB ports, yet I am still encountering the same issue. I have successfully flashed the stock bootloader back onto my tablet using MTKAllInOne.Bin as a DA, but when I go to flash all of the other files I keep getting the 2004 error. So I switched to a different download agent (DA_SWSEC.bin) and unchecked bootloader. Sometimes it will start to flash, but at random points my device will disconnect and the process will stop, throwing up the 4008 error. It's frustrating because it's such a simple thing to do, yet I keep getting errors and my device decides during a flash that it doesn't want to work. Any ideas? I've tried for about a week and still no luck. It's really p*ssing me off because I have the right files and there is no reason for it not to work. Tempted to throw this in the bin and forget about it. :mad::mad:

The folks responsible for selling the world on the Galaxy Fold foldable display smartphone have a job to do. They’ve got to make sure that the device does its job – but they’ve got to make sure the world doesn’t perceive the device as anything but the highest of quality hardware. This is important because, as it is with any new sort of physical device with technology hereto unseen, there’s skepticism from buyers. And with at least one leaked video of an apparent bend mark in the display out in the wild, Samsung needed to act fast.
[Samsung Galaxy Fold Guides, News, & Discussion] pinsb:
The problem with using robots to do a folding test is it isn't 'real world' experience.

For example those robots in the video are folding from a 'straight bar' at the back thus the closing and opening stress is balanced along the whole hinge equally, whereas real world people will fold from only the top or bottom, introducing admittedly small, but regular and not insignificant lateral stress to the hinge and therefore the screen.

If they'd had the robots also do a close from just the top or bottom I'd be very interested to see if their results were the same.

Since your on an oxm multi csc firmware use Odin to flash the latest pie but if you want to go back to oreo don't flash the March pie update . Only flash the first pie release. On the March update they said you can't go back to earlier release. So I wouldn't try it unless you like pie and don't want to go back to oreo.

I would flash the first pie release to see if you like it first. But be warned though you might have to factory reset if you go back to oreo if you get any issues with system.

I have a boot loop issue similar to this post, and would like to try to flash TWRP on to my device with Odin. The TWRP site has four variations of the J7. I'm pretty sure that based on this specs data I have an Exynos processor, which narrows it down to two TWRP options:

1. Samsung Galaxy J7 (2016 Exynos) (j7xelte) TWRP page

This one has a link to XDA that indicates it is only for various SM-J710xx models.

2. Samsung Galaxy J7 Exynos SM-J700 (j7elte) TWRP page

The changelog on that one references exynos7580 which doesn't match the processor number specified on that specs link I found for my phone.
