AND it still has the IR blaster, which I REALLY miss from my Lg G5 days. That is actually REALLY valuable when it comes to controlling your TV.

The MAIN reason when I even want the OnePlus 7 Pro at this point is because it is supposed to have UFS 3.0, which should make everything about the phone much faster...I just wish it was going to have an IR blaster.

...and of course the "no questions asked" bootloader unlock and rooting that OnePlus allows. I can't live without root...

From what I can see there is a 15 day wait time for the official Xiaomi unlock site. I don't even want to wait 15 days!! LOL
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] mslezak:
Yeah my unlock opens up Friday so I feel you. See my post I edited $613 AliExpress 256GB Transparent edition Mi 9 but please, please check the company feedback! I cancelled an order before after reading from the Mi Store empty boxes, broken phones, used phones arriving... And they were a top rated store!

IR blaster is awesome I turn on my TVs and DVRs and it supports basically anything made (even off brand) and is super convenient :)
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] mrchrister:
I'm using this phone in Canada. no problems with reception or anything it just works great! Main reason I bought it was for the IR blaster. A month in I must say I'm loving it! Running the eu ROM on Chinese 128gb model I bought on AliExpress
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] mslezak:
Something to note fellow modder the Mi 9 running Xiaomi.eu weekly edition can use EX Manager to overclock the GPU and people are getting 400-420k AnTuTu benchmarks depending on how you set it up. Higher end scores turn off Fsync which is all fine if your system is stable - if not it can be bad - alters memory checks. I'm not sure you want a GPU running that hot all the time - RevOS has a game mode so you can turn it on just for games or whenever you want. Battery likely will drain quickly. Nonetheless that's faster than the leaked OnePlus Pro benchmarks. Revolution OS you have to add EX Kernel manager to the Game Turbo program to get it to throttle, unlock BL, TWRP, Magisk, etc. https://sourceforge.net/projects/revolutionos-miui/files/ I think straight Xiaomi.eu is cleaner 9.4.26 but haven't tried it yet. Some people say it is rock solid even at 810Mhz OC on the GPU. 2 days left to start modding...

In all honesty OnePlus devs will likely enable the same hacks so take the phone you prefer.

Have you changed any network settings at all. I have a Chinese variant and no matter what, I cannot get this to go LTE+ when my last few previous phones have. Am on tmobile but bands are supported for carrier aggregation.

I am interested in a 8gb version but its not the global version, have been speaking to this Chinese ebay seller he says he's gonna unlock the bootloader flash a global rom on it and than it will be compatible with UK networks for 4g LTE use, the 6gb ram global is compatible I have used it, works perfect, my question is will the 8gb Chinese be able to work like global 6gb version after the global rom flash? cheers.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Addymore:
Flashing global rom on a chinese variant won't make the 4G bands work....! It is hardware related.....
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jhs39:
The 8GB version likely has the Global Modem which means it gets the same bands as the Global Model but you should check the band support to make sure. Xiaomi put the Global Modem in the high end Chinese models for the Mix 2, Mix 2S and (I'm pretty sure) the MI 8 but the cheaper configurations had the regular China Modem that is compatible with far fewer bands.

Last year Xiaomi blocked the installation of their Global ROM on their Chinese hardware phones so either Xiaomi changed their policy or that seller is flashing an unofficial ROM.

I would definitely look into that before buying because you don't want to buy a Xiaomi phone with an unlocked bootloader and unnoficial ROM.

There is a big problem with seller modded ROMs in China. They often contain aware and malware.

I'm in North Dallas and I stuck a Republic Wireless sim in my MI 9. Republic vehemently does not support this phone. But suddenly my reception is four bars instead of the two I was getting with my S9. No idea.

Also strangely I have been assigned a new phone number that works 100%. But this is just a Republic thing. Will receive a Mint sim in a few days.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Dotsan:
I have tmo and it has got 4g pretty much everywhere besides out in the sticks. There, no one had service. The selling point for me was the ir blaster as well as the sd855 for a relatively good price considering I didn't want to drop over 500 on a phone. With good battery life, unlock capabilities, a great camera, it hooked me.

I haven't messed with pay all that much, I attempted to get my card on it but stopped when I had to call the bank to approve it.

I bought mine off of amazon.es. ~450 USD for 3 day shipping from Spain. 6gb, 64gb as I don't need that much space and ram for what I do. So far, I'm happy with it and with the development capabilities that I'm exploring slowly, it will get better.

I have the GS10 Unlocked and I love it. Had the S7, S8 and 9...my work pays the bills.

I wanted to test the Q Beta so I bought a used Pixel 2 and have it on a TMo prepaid plan.

To my surprise I find myself liking the Pixel 2 and using it more and more !!! It is so simple, lighter, etc...great pics...now, using it more than my S10 is mostly due to the "newness" factor

Of course I still use my S10 and will keep using it as the screen is phenomenal, more storage and I have 2 Gear S3 watches and use Samsung Health religiously...

It just goes to show you that there still is no perfect phone that has it all...yet.

Also, makes me wonder though with the price of the Galaxy line getting really high...which phone will be next?

Good Luck With That Move...

It's A Moot Point... :cool:

Either Samsung in your Region supports Samsung Pay MST / NFC or they do not.

You can try to flash a different CSC... but I would flash the "Un-Teathered" Firmware version 1st..... then try an Odin Flash of a specific Region's Firmware.

Good Luck With That.. :angel:
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] aeroknight:
If someone figures out how to activate NFC on the non-NFC A50, I would be very grateful and interested.

I bought the A50 in the UAE and never imagined it wouldn't have NFC in the UAE version especially since a lot of websites report the A50 has NFC.

All my phones since 2012 have NFC and I could not have imagined Samsung would not have NFC on a phone like the A50 in all markets.

I guess the first question is whether the non-NFC A50 has the NFC hardware / antenna installed? If it does, then maybe a ROM / region / software solution exists ...
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] aeroknight:
I flashed the Indian CSC rom to see if activates the NFC function in my UAE (non-NFC) A50. It does not.

I think that 505F has diferent hardware than 505FN because 505F is manufatured in India and 505FN is manufactured in S. Korea. So, Im pretty sure that 505F hasnt included Nfc chip on motherboard.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] Ferminbonza:
Tearing apart

I teared apart my A505G, and it dosen't have the antenna but there are 2 non soldered contacts. I suspect those are from the NFC, so maybe if I can get the NFC antenna from the European version, it may work. If someone know a repair shop that sells that, please notify me.

[29Apr: Just discovered the Samsung Galaxy Tab Q&A forum, I've moved this post to it]

Seeking Collective wisdom: firmware choice: Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 SM-T810

I'm looking for best bets for choosing a good firmware update for this older tablet that I still like.

The tablet recently got very flaky on Android 5 so I let it install an auto-downloaded image for Android 6. The new image probably came from Samsung since I was told at purchase that device had official Samsung firmware for Android 5.1.1. (see ABOUT DEVICE below)

Things got worse on the new Android 6 image, so bad that I'm ready to install new firmware by sideloading.

1. Since the device was rooted by prior owner (see: DEVICE HISTORY below for details) I am guessing I have little to gain by sticking with an official Samsung image--unless nothing else works. Does that sound right? And, does anything prevent me from going the non-Samsung route?

2. If it makes sense at this point to try a non-Samsung image, my question for folks here boils down to this: where am I likely to have the best luck finding a build that will work well on the device? For example, I wonder

who are the most experienced makers of firmware for this older tablet?

and which version of Android--7 or 8? Should I avoid 8 or go for it?

(I've seen an unofficial Lineage OS build for Android 8. I believe that Android 7 builds exist, too.)

Thanks for any suggestions.

MORE:

(I've waited so long to update because a) I seldom use the tablet and b) seller said that he'd had problems with a German Nougat and had reverted to official Android 5.1.1. )

[DEVICE HISTORY, as far as I can say:

I bought in 2017 on swappa.com. Seller told me "What you would get out of the box is the official Samsung OEM firmware for Android 5.1.1 (XAR-T810XXU2BPB1-20160323135521) with the official Samsung recovery. Updates will apply without issue, either by directly loading with Odin or SmartSync, or doing an OTA firmware update....It is running pure stock firmware now. Since it was rooted at one point, the Samsung Knox flag is tripped. It's the only thing that would distinguish this device from a new-in-box tablet."]

This is the first Android phone I've had that will not properly connect to Windows. No matter what I've tried, I never get the "Use USB for file transfer" popup when plugging it in. I have USB debugging enabled in Developer Options.

I'm wondering if for some reason this phone CAN'T connect to Windows, although that seems unlikely. I did learn that this German variant I have (XT1955-2) cannot connect to 5G wifi.

No matter what I've tried, including trying various Motorola and non-Motorola windows USB drivers, the only thing that happens when I connect via USB is it's visible in windows an as Unrecognized Device.

[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] sTr3utr:
Sorry to resurrect an old thread. I'm in the same boat. I have the Moto G7 Power (-2 Mexico edition) and I can't TurboCharge or connect to a computer anymore. Same cables/PC work with another G7 Power but not mine, so I know it's something to do with my phone. I did a full reset, no change. I tried going to USB Developer Options, enabled USB Debugging, nothing still. I also tried to set the default USB action to "File Transfer" but ended up in a OS bootloop, which prompted me to do a factory reset on the phone.

I think this is hardware-related to the USB port on the phone. As long as I've got bluetooth connectivity I'm fine but I'm definitely not happy with this phone so far.

If anyone comes up with a fix, I'd be happy to try it out.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] ST Dog:
While you had USB debugging on, did you connect? Try adb? Pull log files to see what was happening?

I downloaded the app you suggested and have now received a message on the phone saying 'usb connected'. I was able to open Developer Mode and got much more options than when I opened it from the phone manually by tapping 7 times. I enabled usb debugging. However, the phone is not showing up under File Explorer on my PC. I am using the usb cable that came with the phone and have a feeling that it may be only for charging.
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] ST Dog:
USB debugging is for using adb, not what you need.

What you want is to set the default USB mode in the option mentioned to MTP/file transfer .
