[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] J450N79:
So reboots don't seem to fix the lag I'm experiencing when opening and closing certain apps. This phone was plenty fast before for me. Other issues are present now too. Auto adaptive display brightness doesn't work as well. I also really think it's sheet that you can't disable GPS and have the battery saving mode anymore! WTF Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] 350Rocket:
Yeah it didn't seem to have anything to do with the ram. It had lots to spare and kept everything in memory. The scrolling stutter would come and go. Usually locking and unlocking the screen would make it go away for an unknown amount of time.

I don't know for sure that it's the exact same issue as you guys are having on the s8 but it sounds like it. So far mine is still working okay.

I just found this thread, but I strongly suggest (if you're comfortable with doing ROM flashing work from a PC) downgrading your version even if it's not a rooted ROM. There was a new method for putting safestrap on this device posted in February https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s8/development/root-t3904613 that lets you root, install other roms, etc etc. Very useful for me as I also updated to One UI and was having performance problems, Nougat is a breeze.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Exzu:
I can only assume there is an massive amount of updated drivers in the original firmware that people miss/skip when flashing a custom rom.

Upgrading Android, Major Version 101:

1: ALWAYS flash the latest ORIGINAL ftf in odin to upgrade from Android X to Android Y. Especially to make sure you get the latest drivers, modem etc.

2: NEVER flash a custom rom before having upgraded using the the latest firmware. It's like asking to get hardbricked.

For example, if you are on Android 8.0/8.1 then you flash the OEM firmware of Android 9 before flashing an Android 9 Custom firmware. Unless the manufacturer have stopped firmware support, and you're already using the latest relying on custom firmwares that is.

Upgrading OS from X.*.* to Y.*.* = Full wipe, so backup everything, even Internal SD Card. Move backups to PC then perform a full wipe and flash OEM firmware from PC.

You always do this unless specificly told otherwise by for example a guide due to whatever circumstance.

[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] pabgar:
No
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] therealroyston2:
Yea mine works
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] Totonno90:
First of all, thanks for the answers. To remove any doubt there must be in the settings of Google app an Access with voice match section. There should be the option "even if the screen is off". Can you confirm that one?
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] therealroyston2:
There's no "even when screen is off" option
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] Totonno90:
It's strange. When the screen is off and the smartphone is not charging, if you say "Ok Google" then the screen turns on?
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] pSyDeD:
From the screenshot above, it looks like the always on far field microphone is lacking from this phone. Without this microphone, you cannot trigger Google Assistant through the "Ok, Google" keyword when the screen is off.

Just to be clear, Google assistant can't be triggered when the screen is off on the A50, you have to wake the screen up for it to work.

Is there any way to make it as easy as it used to.

I have been trying to downgrade my tablet with a custom rom and stock rom.

Everything works perfectly, no issues on the rom, but when I reawake when my screen goes off, the screen just shows line for a second and closes, but the system is on.

These issues don't happen on any version newer than android 8.0.

When I try to downgrade, my main unmodified android version was 8.1.

Is there any fix to this?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] steven.rn:
Can't imagine why you'd want to downgrade, must be some compelling reason... Lots of folks here using custom 9.0 (pie) roms that kick butt! Still, I don't have a proper answer-- I don't know if you can go back from 8.0 or not. Good luck, hope you get what your looking for.
[Sony Xperia XZ3 Questions & Answers] etac88:
Hello!

My cousin has bought a brand new Sony XZ3.

She was used to use a screen off app. Simply press and the screen go off.

Now is not possible to use, because when the screen goes off, at the next screen on the fingerprint doesn't work, is required to insert the pin code.

It is an Android 9 limitation or is there an app that can screen off and use fingerprint at next screen on?

Thank you
[Sony Xperia XZ3 Questions & Answers] mercuryspain:
If you install nova launcher, you can configure it so that with a double touch on the screen, it turns off and then you can turn it on with the fingerprint.
[Sony Xperia XZ3 Questions & Answers] -DM-:
You can use Fluid Navigation Gestures and map one of the gesture to a "turn off lock screen" action as Nova as mentioned above will only achieve that from the home screen as opposed from anywhere with FNG ?
[Verizon LG V10] Haxcid:
After 3 good but at times frustrating years I say good bye to my LG V10. Welcome Pixel 3. I hope we have as long a run.

Sadly the V10, which is more than capable of running all newer versions of android as is the case with many phones, was left abandoned by the side of the road by LG and Verizon. It is a sad because the V10 is still a more than capable phone. I am passing mine off to another family member running a LG G Vista (great phone except for the 3 gig of storage left after Android take it's share of the 8 gig of storage).

I hope root does still come to this phone. It would be nice to be able to tweak it for my family member.

Now we move on to the Pixel 3 and its issues but also updated OS and security patches.

Peas out.

I have a question for some soul out there. It's been awhile since I had to do anything on this phone., but I've retained root when since it was available.

I figure I can sell it.

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NerdFire:
I'm having the same problem on a different device (Fire HD 10 7th Gen) running 5640. Link2SD works nicely on my Fire HD 8s running 6301, where I use it (among other things) to freeze the Amazon and Google app stores so my grandkids don't "accidentally" download apps I didn't want on them. On the HD 10 I have to open an adb shell window and disable the app stores with pm; I can do it, but I have to be at a desktop machine that I've already authorized for USB debugging, which isn't always the case.

I wrote the developer a few days ago and asked if there was a fix or workaround. So far I haven't received a reply.

My research indicates a lot of headaches to try to get Bluetooth PAN (personal area networking) to work on Android Tablets.

We are building a custom device that makes use of a tablet as a client. In the case where wifi is not available, we want to use bluetooth PAN to communicate

as if we were on a WiFi network .

Is this feasible without building our own bluetooth stack? Is PAN supported in Android generally?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidriven:
Do a Google search for:

"USB jig for Samsung"

Or a search for:

"300k resistor method Samsung"

You'll find information for a couple of different tricks to force-boot your device into download mode and then you can flash your stock firmware using Odin.

If it is at all possible for you to revive the device, this should do it.

If it doesn't, then it can only be repaired by:

1) replacing the motherboard

2) a JTAG service(or buy the expensive JTAG hardware for yourself and learn how to use it). The service is probably still around $50 but I'm not sure.

3) Pay for an Octo box or a Riff box service(or similar hardware interface equipment)

Or buy the Octo box/ Riff box or other interface for yourself and learn to use it.

There is also, possibly, a trick that involves a somewhat complicated method of booting a stock debrick.img that has been burned onto an external sdcard that has been formatted as a "bootable" drive and then using the booted OS to repair the partitions on the device, then after everything is restored and booting properly without the external sdcard, you return the external sdcard to normal format as storage instead of as a bootable drive. You can probably find a copy of debrick.img(sometimes labeled as debrick.bin) for S2 or maybe you can get someone else here with a S2 to pull a debrick.img(.bin) from their device using terminal emulator or adb shell. If your device does not at least vibrate or light up the capacitive hardkeys when you try to power on the device, this method of booting from external sdcard will not work on your device but a JTAG service will probably do the job, however, there is no guarantee that the service will work.

Also, I can't see what the second photo that you posted is. Can you repost it correctly so that I can view it?

[Xiaomi Mi 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] lightcao:
Just wanted to share my experience with WiFi Calling. I am in the US on T-Mobile and WiFi calling has been working for me surprisingly. VoLTE has also been working wonderfully. I've tested this on a Global Mi 9 running Stock and the Xiaomi.eu rom.

Enter these codes into the Dialer to enable the options in Settings. (Settings < SIM Cards & mobile networks < Sim Card Settings < VoLTE Enabled/Make Calls using WLAN)

VoLTE *#*#86583#*#*

VoWIFI *#*#869434#*#*

Things should work after you enable the two options. This depends on whether or not your carrier supports it and your e911 address set (US only?).

Some issues you might run into is that the option for Network Preference is greyed out and you will unable to change that option. I've had some success if you disable it and re-enable it and click on that option really fast, it will go through. When you first enable VoWiFi, it is important that you get into this menu and change it to WiFi preferred or WiFi Calling won't work.

UPDATE:

Manually creating your carrier APN worked great for me. Been testing it for about 2 weeks and I haven't had any issues with VoLTE/VoWiFi. For example, for me on T-Mobile, I created a new one with the following settings. The important part I'm guessing is the APN type. Also make sure that your carrier has enabled WiFi Calling on their end as well.

APN: fast.t-mobile.com

MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc

MMC : 310

MNC: 260

APN type: default,supl,mms,ims,cbs

APN protocol: IPv4/IPv6

APN roaming protocol: IPv4/IPv6

The codes enable/disable checking for VOLTE. You should do the codes until both say disabled. Then you can go into configuration where the options will no longer be greyed out so you can force to use or not use.

Then call your carrier and ask if the VoLTE option is on.

VO LTE is a setting on the phone, but ALSO on the carrier.

I had to call my carrier and have them re-activate the VOLTE because I switched phones, and it goes OFF by default on their side, and no app can make you see that.
