[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] TheZen:
I'm so used to dealing with multiple modems for the same model of phone in the US (between the major carriers and stuff) that I was overthinking it.

Thanks a ton. That simplifies things so much...and also makes me wonder why updating never occurred for the Japanese release. It's not like there isn't language support for newer versions of Android, but maybe not for the MIUI? I need to be more careful choosing my next phone then, though probably it should be an AOSP phone like the Zenfone or Pixel.

Guess I have my work cut out for me this weekend. Time to run a giant backup and start rooting. Thanks again for all your help. I like this phone (though I often accidentally hover/touch the home button when typing, and I hope there's a sensitivity fix for that :laugh:) so I want it to last for a while before I get my next one.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] RobboW:
It's still a good phone, I look at new phones and think, hmmm, nice, but what will I gain on a daily basis? Nothing more to be honest. The A7 has enough power for me still. The one thing I could really use would be a higher capacity battery. Was looking at Huawei phones but now, well.....

For updates, they had issues with OTA and reverted to only releasing for a whole ROM download for update from SD card.

I personally won't apply an OTA for mine even now at Oreo. Must be a whole ROM to flash with the updater. That's all I've done with it since purchase and it works great still. A lot of people seem to have all sorts of weird issues after applying OTA updates.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] TheZen:
Sweet. As someone with some experience with this stuff, do you have any tips or tricks I should know moving forward? I'm going to try rooting it tonight.

-EDIT: Quick little question, my phone says the Android version is 7.1.1 but that would be Nougat, right? Or is it actually Marshmellow?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] RobboW:
7.1.1 yeah, Nougat. That doesn't make sense from your first post.

Was it used when you got it or new? Have you checked the model from what's on the back of it, not what software says it is?

I keep mine stock, can't advise on rooting etc. I use it with personal and work SIMs and it has to pass requirements including encryption to run Microsoft InTune and our company portal and use it in work mode. Bootloader hasn't even been unlocked. The most I did was uninstall some built in user apps through ADB.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] cercelcremene:
I also have a 2017G bought in Japan. I unlocked it and worked on it based on this forum, and I can say that it behaves as any other 2017G. I am not interested to use the stock ROM, but yes, I remember that it was on Nougat version when I received it.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] darth_antz:
I have the A2017 (china). As above, update your phone to the region. As a result of having a china variant, i think i miss out on band 28 and some other essential bands for reception. I get 3G/low 4G connections and a lot of bad reception areas (countryside living). Its no problem.

Currently running AEX 6.5. Search some of my recent posts for how I updated to this version.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] TheZen:
Appreciate it. I will try to work on it this weekend, as last weekend I just didn't have the time...

The phone was brand new when i bought it. It was on a "super sale" though, going for 12,000 yen (like 110 bucks or so). I was thinking about getting a Zenfone but if I could save the money and make it to at least Oreo I'd be happy. Been having issues with the battery whenever I use more than 2 apps at a time.

If you could link an unlocking guide and a ROM that worked well for you that would be great. I have one I plan to use but I'm always open to suggestions. After the first time, I'll feel more comfortable with it. In the worst case scenario that I brick this thing I'll just buy the Zenfone early :laugh:
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] RobboW:
The Zenphone 6 is looking a viable buy now.

My Axon 7 is still good so not really looking but I did just get a new Axon 7 Mini for use as a media player. It still has AMOLED screen, stereo speakers, headphone jack, DAC for the jack etc. No hi res bluetooth though. Cost me AU$149 new in box from retail store. Bargain! How much is a dedicated music player which is crap at movies or just cant do them?

Chucked my 128Gb SD in. Sounds good playing through the car hifi, lower 3.5 jack output matches HU aux in impedance better than Axon 7 which can overload the input at high volume. Very balanced and clean sound.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] darth_antz:
Where did you get in on a super sale? website in Japan?

Obvious unlocking guide is this one https://xdaforums.com/axon-7/how-to/guide-axon-7-custom-oreo-roms-newbies-t3786693

Give yourself 2 hours to get the job done, and there are a few guides on youtube for unlocking the bootloader and installing TWRP (if you havent already).

If you cannot root the phone by your own discovery, I dont think you'll be up for installing a custom rom. It takes a degree of risk, and research. Being successful in the attempt is worth it.

Do a backup in TWRP, or get titanium backup pro (paid) to do a backup of your essential apps and data (email, messaging, google authenticator etc). I think titanium backup is better, especially if you are going from android 7 to 8 or 9 and different twrp versions.

If your phone boots following Oki's guide (Option 1), then scroll to the last page to my post about taking it to android 9 on AEX.

As your phone is A2017G, search for the necessary files in the forum corresponding to your modem. There are plenty of links.

Good luck and let us know you are successul!
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] TheZen:
I bought it at Rakuten Mobile. There was a super sale and it was like 80% off, lol.

I tried using the guide over the last couple of days and no matter what I've done, I can't seem to get to recovery after doing the flashing (step 9). I was able to flash a stock image back on, but then when I try again it's the same results. I'm at a loss as to why but...there's another guide using the Axon7Tool.

https://xdaforums.com/axon-7/how-to/guide-install-twrp-unlock-bl-flash-t3517379

The downside is that I work two jobs tomorrow so I won't have time to try this new one out but I think I downloaded everything already. This is kinda frustrating though..

-EDIT: I used the unbricking guide to EDL flash the B10 Nougat and it is a different experience than what I had before...geez, seems the Japanese version was severely neglected. If I run into problems with the other guide I feel comfortable EDL flashing Oreo. Really appreciate the support guys, let me know what you think. Before I started this, my battery was lasting barely 8 hours with only LINE and Chrome being the main background apps...
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] GeoffUK:
Not sure it's relevant here any more but I have a 128 Gb A2017 which I put a G build on, after being a bit miffed at some of the stuff (mostly Google based) I couldn't use on the original. I really don't know that much about what I'm doing but it all seems to work OK, though an old battery life problem has returned so I'm going to be asking elsewhere (probably) about how to replace the modem software. I also have a bit of a problem with GPS intermittently not working (going on and offline) but I suspect that's probably a hardware problem rather than the build. Mine is on
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Choose an username...:
you can't. There are 3 modem variants by region (US, china, global) and many versions for each, but they are not interchangeable and flashing another has already wiped some IMEIs long ago (doesn't always happen though)

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] devilrulz4ever:
The oneplus's gaming mode has some pretty nifty features, especially how it shows notifications without obscuring the screen (plain white text). It's even more useful/convenient when you're watching an episode or something. I haven't seen any (so called) gaming mode app like it. It can even keep the call screen in the background so you don't have to switch back to the game when you answer the call. I think it is the least talked about feature of the device here at xda or anywhere else for that matter.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zappcues.gamingmode

This may help for now
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] devilrulz4ever:
I've tried this one. But it can only hide the notification banners and other things which are not required. Call handling is not as great as OP's gaming mode. OP's can even suppress whatsapp call screen to a notification so it doesn't take over the game screen.

Hence, there's nothing quite like it out there.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] thomas140:
Guys,

I'm using poco f1, miui 10 open beta 9.5.17.

When in the game(game turbo on), I tried to click the app(fb, WhatsApp, Viber, etc) from the list of choices.

But instead of showing the floating windows of the app, it directed me to the main page of the app.

How is that so? Is there any reason why or is there any setting about it?

[Android Head-Units] JCAndroid87:
My brother bought a Jeep Wrangler PX5 MTCE_HA Android 8.0 4gb/32gb from a company called GTAcarkits. These units are Dasaita brands or Hot Audio. This unit came with a Custom Rom for the specific company so my brother contacted them because he was having low sound problems and he was already looking for a way to change the rom or install Viper4android. So my brother asked GTAcarkits if the unit was rooted, they said the device was locked. I downloaded root checker and it turns out that the unit is rooted already and of course it has their custom rom. So GTAcarkits told my brother that they suggest not to flash any compatible rom because if he does the specific unit will get bricked. He said their units they sell have a fail safe. So, they might be rooted but you cannot flash any new firmware. The head unit is a Dasaita 10.1 . same as buying it directly from them how can it get bricked?

If any body can help out with this? I really appreciate it. My brother wants to flash a different rom with better sound quality and Viper4android but, I just want to make sure I do not brick it. I will post pictures below.

Another thing . is it possible extract the current stock rom and recovery. img just in case it does get bricked it can be reflashed back to the original rom with stock image?

Website info from gtacarkits unit

Specifications:

IPS screen with 1024x600 resolution

PX5 processor with 8 cores

4Gb of RAM

[Android Head-Units] america94:
Hey there! I'm literally minutes away from pulling the trigger and buying the same unit from GTA car Kits, for a Corolla 2015.... Did you end up chancing it with the new ROM? on a side note, how is the sound quality with this unit vs OEM radio? I know upgrading OEM with anything by name brand like Kenwood or Pioneer pretty much garantees better sound, but I'm a bit worried as I find the sound pretty good with my Corolla already (now that I've added a powered subwoofer). it is VERY hard to find reviews online for similar Dasaita units that focus on the sound quality! thanks!

[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] Anti-FlipWallet:
FIXED!!!

I found the fix! Thank the lord, because this was very annoying. (I'm using A50, not sure if this fix will work for S10 and A70).

You can re-enable the double-tap and lift to wake, you can even re-enable on body detection, fingerprints, trusted location and gear(smart watch, headphones etc) unlocking methods, because none of them are the issue.

The issue is Samsung decided to ship the phone with flip wallet automatic unlock enabled.

To fix it:

Go into settings -> scroll down to advanced features -> click accessories -> turn off automatically unlock on flip wallet.

I have not had the issue since I changed this setting, I have double tap to wake and lift to wake both enabled. I have face detection on. I even have smart-lock on for my galaxy watch and a trusted location.

I am not using finger scan(too slow) or on body detection(don't need it, nor do I trust it), but have also tested them and they work fine after this change.

This single handedly fixed the issue for me after weeks of searching the web and trying different settings. So thank you Samsung for shipping the device with an obscure setting that very few people will use enabled!

Cheers, please spread this so that others can find out.

Yesterday my bank finally started supporting Google pay so i went to add my card but it said i was still rooted. After some searching i found out the my CTS Profile Match was failing because i unlocked the bootloader, is there anyway to relock the bootloader to pass safetynet?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] dimitrispas22:
on developer options you can disable bootloader unlock but its gonna factory reset your device.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] thewoolysheep08:

anyway i have the same device and i did that...

your knox is already 0x1 samsung pay and some other features for example s health you can not access it anymore via the original apk and firmware if you don't have root..

google pay will work just fine after you gonna lock the bootloader.

and if you want to use gpay with custom rom you must delete google play services and install a version that starts from 14. something and hide magisk but it works just fine

Yeah, bizarre though it might sound. I changed my default DPI in the developer settings from 411 (default) to 454 and it moved the interface for the FP reader away from the actual sensor, that's bizarre that OnePlus didn't account for that in the coding.

The small green circle used to illuminate your fingerprint moves also so you can't unlock with fingerprint or re-register them.

I'll report it to OnePlus and hopefully they can fix it. Returning to default 411 dpi fixes it.

You can change the "Display" size in the settings and it keeps the FP reader where it should be.
