[Nokia 6.1 (2018) Questions & Answers] jason2678:
I've not bothered to unlock this phone. I will, however, say that even if the custom roms only have comparable performance, it would be worth it just to be rid of the Evenwell task killer Nokia allowed to be bundled into the stock rom, as long as the custom roms are problem free.
[Nokia 6.1 (2018) Questions & Answers] fil3s:
I just unlocked cuz it's cool to have root, themes etc. Regarding roms look here

Plenty of development for treble enabled devises.

Downside I guess is when u got twrp installed one will no longer recieve system updates untill one installs custom rim.

You right, root gives you more freedom that stock on any phone ever made will never provide, sadly.
[Nokia 6.1 (2018) Questions & Answers] Solannae:
I am unlocked since July 2018. Sadly, custom roms are not bug-free and I was lacking important features for day-to-day usage (alot of issues with treble roms and hotspot for instance, which is mandatory for me since it is my only internet access point). Every time I try roms (aospex/treble) I finally come back to stock because at least, almost everything I need is working.

Imo, it would be better to stay on stock. Magisk (+xposed if you want this specific module) is working on Pie. You just gotta uninstall Magisk partly before applying Nokia's OTAs (but as of now, with the improved system-as-root support, it may not even be necessary in a few updates, who knows).

Btw, you still get otas when unlocked, + never flash twrp and just boot the image using fastboot when needed, that way you'll avoid lots of trouble

Hi folks. I'm using my PX5 with Hal9k's rom since a few months now and I'm really satisfied with the sound quality when using viper4android.

The only thing that bothers me is that viper4android only works with my music player neither with BT Audio or Apps like Google Maps.

In the viper4android thread they wrote you should use compatibility mode in viper settings but I don't have this option. I'm on 2.5.0.6. Has anyone a solution for this problem. Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy A20 Questions & Answers] sbeve72:
I have looked up on so many search results but I can't find a custom Android 9 Pie ROM for this phone that is based Stock Android. This phone is cheap and probably is yet to be released in the US by some weeks. I don't have a high end phone and this one is a really cheap one so probably people aren't hyped about though it is one of the most worth-for-the-money phones. So my question is, can a developer make a Custom ROM for this phone if it's possible. If not, what should I do. I don't know what it takes to make custom ROM and probably I am talking about something not practically possible but I'd be more than happy to get a Custom ROM for this phone.
[Samsung Galaxy A20 Questions & Answers] SetOfLetter:
I'm have Galaxy A20 and I understand you, in Russia, too, not a lot of people who use this smartphone, but in order to have a custom ROM, you need to make TWRP, and there you can use Project Treble or other custom ROM
[Samsung Galaxy A20 Questions & Answers] sbeve72:
I have no idea how to do that. Can you please do that if possible?

Do you have the 4Gb version or the 3Gb version? Please help if it is possible for you to make a custom ROM for this device.
[Samsung Galaxy A20 Questions & Answers] SetOfLetter:
I'm have 3gb, and I can only help you to put Root on OneUI, and to make TWRP, you need to ask people who know how to do it.

You have Always on Display? On SER wirmware not AOD. Just wondering what regions it might have, I know that on the A6 2018 on the Austrian ROM, there is Always on Display, I want to gather statistics and find out which countries it may be present in. On Galaxy A20

[Samsung Galaxy A20 Questions & Answers] sbeve72:
They are indeed very similar in specs. Modifying the ROM for A30 to a ROM for A20 would basically only be changing a few values if my understanding of ROMs is correct. I hope to get a good news soon.

Thanks in advance for any answer or direction to resolve this problem.

I know you said you "tried everything". Did that include the standard holding the Vol down, Home and Power buttons until the green screen appears? Might take holding them for 10 to 15 seconds.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] rakh1:
Hey all,

I've got mine on pre-order and have been looking around for ideas about what comes in the box. I found this: http://www.slashphone.com/htc-touch-...unboxing-16485 and various other links to the same sourse.

It appears you get a charger, headphones, USB lead. However, there is no case?

There were rumours around that the special self-cleaning case might be included: http://www.phonemag.com/htc-touch-di...deo-052706.php but this is not present in the unboxing pics. For a phone to come from HTC without a case is a little strange...

Anyone found anything more about this???
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] Alfredos:
I don't think it's gonna be in the box.

The case is about €15
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] dazza9075:

O2 Orbit didnt have a case either, maybe thats just O2 but it does show they will drop it if need be
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] imranbashir_uk:
I think the Orbit 2 does come with a case AKA Touch Cruise
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] Jackster:
true. bought 2 orbit 2's and both had a case. they came with co pilot too. so maybe the one's without copilot didn't have a case.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] ceevee369:
Plenty of articles on this and HTC is not happy about it.

Especially as HTC Europe will NOT support Hong Kong import models (and they are easy to trace with S/N and Imei.

Wonder how long you gonna mis your Diamond if needed to send back (to Hong Kong) for repair.

Price comparison:

Bought mine in HK yesterday for 5600 HKD downtown . Should be around 700US.

Euro pricing avarage : 585 -600 Euro. Do the maths and understand why Expansys is importing (though they will mention it on their sites if it is UK / HK or whatever version normally)

Is there a screen protector included in the box? Some unboxing reviews I've seen included a screen protector; others make no mention of one.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] ceevee369:
Yes, there is a SP in the box, but the quality is bad. Scratches easely, gives like a fume - dusty look when in sunlight.

I wait for a better quality OEM version - to reccomend.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] Huey85:
Yeah, most freebies that come in any package are generally crap to slightly acceptable quality. I guess it will do for the time being whilst I source out a full-body skin/shield or a good quality SP & case. Any word on Martin Fields SPs?

It's already out, i have already put it on my Diamond, very happy about it.

Awesome to hear - maybe I'll opt for a Martin Fields screen protector instead of an InvisibleShield. Does the Martin Fields SP make the touchscreen noticeably less sensitive at all?

Hi guys,

I just got a second hand Note 4.

Outer look is in perfect shape.

But, after 4-5 minutes, just surfing the menu and settings, it gets really hot.

I did wipe cache/factory reset, but no change.

Battery seems to discharges fastly...

What do you think ?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] logosA:
2 things could help you.

1. flash a custom rom on your phone.

There are plenty of them right now, in a high level of creation and excellent support in their theads.

pick one from here and try it out.

Custom roms are more effective in handling memory/ CPU and use less background apps, so keep the phone more effectively working and with no so much battery consumption.

https://xdaforums.com/note-4/snapdragon-dev

2. IF even in custom rom, battery seems to discharge very fast, you may need to replace your battery.

If though, none of the above seem to help, you may be stepping in the emmc bug, a lot of Note 4 have had the latest years.

just in case take a look here so make a comparison with the symptoms on your phone

[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] jdhedden:
According to this article, the Oneplus 7 Pro does not have an optical/IR/hardware proximity sensor:

This would seem to indicate that the procedures espoused in various threads related to proximity sensor calibration via the factory test menu (*#808#) are not actually doing anything, and that also the various suggestions that the sensor is behind the display are erroneously based on information related to other phones.

Using an app that let me read the proximity sensor, my own (albeit limited) testing seems to confirm this notion in that covering the display with your hand does not trigger the proximity sensor (regardless of the position of the phone). However, I can get it to react when I bring it to my ear. My guess is that the motion sensors are being relied upon, and possibly the microphone as well (to detect noise level changes when the phone it brought close to the face). Additionally, the reading is ever only 0 or 5 cm - nothing in between - which further lends credence to the lack of hardware.

I cannot account for why some people are saying that running the proximity sensor test somehow fixes double tab to wake issues, but given that many others seem to have limited or no success with this method leads me to suspect the reasoning is fallacious (post hoc, ergo propter hoc). (I'm not trying to cast aspersions, and mean no offense.)
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] tWoBrO:
Don't know about that, but every phone that I ever owned have always shown 0 or 5 on proximity sensor tests. So, that's not a good indication for your theory.

Just adding some information, not saying you are wrong or anything. I honestly don't know.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] yandreev3:
It seems like what they are doing is using the earpiece as the proximity sensor but only when the device is held up to the ear.

If you download the app "sensors multitool" on Google play and look at proximity, you can see covering the earpiece with a piece of paper does nothing until the phone is in an upright position.

The thing is, the phone also has an ir proximity sensor under the screen but it seems that they have disabled it in the latest 9.5.8 because before cpuz and other tests would make it visible in the upper middle-right of the screen but after updating to 9.5.8, it no longer works. Would also explain why you can't go into the calibration settings for it anymore.

Edit: if you select light sensor in the multitool app, you can cover the upper right portion of the screen with a piece of paper or something else and see the value go down and then back up when you uncover it. That's the ir proximity sensor as well.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] yandreev3:
And here's another thing. Attached is a screenshot from the ifixit oneplus 7 pro teardown video. When they remove the motherboard, you can clearly see the two cutouts in the display for the ir proximity sensor/lux sensor on the top right (left on screenshot because back of display)
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Arden144:
Interesting theory, but this device definitely does have an infrared proximity sensor. Just open CPU-Z and raise the phone up like you're making a call, then take a picture of the screen with another phone.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Michaelikupa:
Hello guys, I have a used unlocked LG V20 Verizon VS995 but it is very selective with SIM cards. Some worked and some didn't. The phone dialer couldn't also dial special codes like the IMEI checker, phone testing code or LG MENU. So I thought of getting other ROMs to flash in place of it. I flashed the H91520a ROM with LGUP using the partition dl option. It worked at first but still gave the same SIM card issue but even worse. So I flashed back to Verizon.

Before I reset the factory data after flashing, I remembered I had some Tmobile H91820h KDZ for my previous V20 lying somewhere on my PC. I flashed it using partition dl with LGUP again. When the flashing was done the phone didn't boot up any more. I removed the battery and tried to get into download mode (by holding the volume up button and plugging it to my pc) so I could easily flash back to the Verizon version again since nothing seemed to work well. The phone has shown no sign of power since then. Can't boot to fastboot or download mode. The LG startup logo doesn't even show up at all.

However, When I connect to my PC, it pops up under "Ports" in my device manager as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008(COMxx)". LGUP or LG Flash Tool doesn't recognize it. I really hope it isn't bricked beyond recovery.

Please, I really need help with this. Thanks.

[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] secured-nor1:
Same scenario here..
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StyxCrosser:
Same problem here since about 2 weeks.

I suspect the battery health.

I have seriously

unstable battery voltage

measured by various battery monitoring apps downloaded from Play Store.

I cross-checked the reported results from all those apps and they report the same identical figures. Meaning they read and report the data correctly.

They all show unstable (jumping high and dropping low) battery voltage.

The nominal voltage printed on the battery is 3.85 Volts.

It gets as low as 3.55~3.6 V and goes up to 4.15~4.2+, but

more on the high voltage side

.

I have experienced reboots on almost all and every voltage.

I mean how stable should a healthy battery voltage be on this device (Samsung Galaxy Note Edge SM-N915F)? While unplugged from the charger with normal phone usage?

Can the rest who own this device (Samsung Galaxy Note Edge) [mine is N915F], who DO NOT have the mentioned freezing and rebooting problem check and see what their battery voltage both plugged in charger and unplugged is?! How high or low it gets? How stable/unstable the battery voltage is? Does it jump high and low even with a healthy new battery?

Since this problem started I have clean flashed the latest available stock ROM using Odin3 v3.13.3 both downloaded from SamMobile website.

I have no third party apps installed and still the problem persists.

I'm not new to flashing ROMs and stuff. I now have hit a brick wall and can't get around this problem.

Please check battery voltage and report. I suspect it could be the culprit behind all freezes and reboots, but I don't want to replace the battery unless I'm sure.

May we be able to identify the cause with the power of community.

Thanks to all

[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] Folgore89:
Hi all!

I have always kept my music library on internal storage but I recently got a large sd card so I don't have to copy music back again every time I reset the phone. I am currently running stock Pie with June update, no root, bootloader locked.

Since I have put my music library on the sd card (30gb of music on a 64gb card) everytime I reboot or wake up the phone, I got a notification of "scanning sd card". And the music library in several players I have tried (pulsar, shuttle, musicolet) is empty and slowly repopulates.

When I first used the card I put it into the phone and formatted it as portable storage, then copied music in it.
