[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] ViperCDX:
Hello, i was previously using galaxy note 5 with android 7 and whatsapp plus was working fine. Now i switched to op 7 pro with android 9 and every time i try to use WA plus, it says that i am temporarily banned for 20-40 mins.

Any workarounds?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Eric214:
What the hell is WhatsApp Plus? There's just WhatsApp that I know of. The thing where you paid a dollar once a year ended like 3 or 4 years ago. Other than that, I have no idea why you would be banned. Maybe just uninstall and just install the normal WhatsApp from the play store
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Deleted member 7436581:
Those WhatsApp Plus apps are malware magnets.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] GUGUITOMTG4:
I used one version of that app like 5 years ago. They banned my acc for 10 days

It was FB greed when thy bought the company didn't want 3rd party enhanced apps doing what they couldn't. But to make the story short, it doesn't have anything to do with the phone, may just be you unlucky.

Those who don't know what app is that, well, imagine that google decides to ban all YouTube Vanced users.,?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] trapcoder:
It was already in the media a couple of times that whatsapp has been banning users with non official app. You got unlucky i guess.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] ViperCDX:
Its a great app, has a lot of features that are surprisingly missing from the vanilla app. Been using it for a long time and quite frankly was addicted to it
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] ViperCDX:
oh damn, missed this news then.

Will try after some time i guess

Every time i install plus my ban time gets increased :mad:
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Eric214:
There's no WhatsApp plus in the play store. Do you mean "Message Plus for WhatsApp"? I'm thinking you don't have an official app.

Edit... Hahaha I just read the post above this one. That's what I figured, pirate app bit you.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] godlike100:
Careful, cause it can lead to permanent ban if you continue to push it.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] ViperCDX:
Ha ha its not pirate app , just think of it as the official app with a few extra features!
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] ViperCDX:
Thats why i will try it out on my secondary sim, doesnt matter if that number gets blocked

I think it has something to do with android pie, coz it was fine in nougat
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Eric214:
If you have a custom WhatsApp APK, then you have a pirated app. It's cool we've all used them at some point. ;)

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Ibrajan:
My Z2 force software channel is Sprint, sim of all carriers work. It doesn't have any sprint bloatware . It is stuck on Android 7.1.1 with Sep, 2017 security patch. Upon checking for update it says its up to date. I just want to update my android to latest version (stock rom only) with the latest security patch released. Would appreciate if someone could provide me the rom and update and also give some guidance. My bootloader is unlocked.

[IMG="Basic Information of phone"]https://ibb.co/sqZ2Trm[/IMG]
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] mr_5kool:
Just use Lenovo Moto Smart Assistant, guy (of course Motorola and Google driver installed). It's the easiest method to get newest Oreo.

Or go to Development or Guide thread and search the firmware for Sprint variant.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Ibrajan:
Ok, since LMSA didn't support my device for flashing, I'll be flashing the rom myself.

Would highly appreciate if you could just answer these questions.

1) What happens if use a sprint rom for a differnt SKU (not for XT1789-03)

2) Will I get sprint bloatware with the rom update. (Currently, I have none)

3) Currently I am using my country's sim/carrier. Will this update lock my sim to sprint or create network problems?
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] mr_5kool:
1. It can cause problems or not. This depends on variant or ROM: Sprint single sim can be flashed the Retail dual sim ROM (with bootloader unlocked); you may flash a Verizon (or ATT) ROM to your unlocked bootloader Retail one but you can not do versa.

2. Variant stock fw will have some bloatwares (more or less). Retail seems having no bloatware. I dont know about other variant (T-mobile, US cellular...).

3. If your phone is carrier unlocked one (like my ATT), flashing fw causes no problem. I have heard someone had some issues one 4G or else, but my Sprint one (the dead one) had no problem.

Good luck!

When trying to adjust notification priorities ('prioritized' or 'gentle'), it does not save the settings. Ever since beta 4, I'm not getting notified of any messages even if they're starred or 'prioritized'.

Hello everyone.

Dose anyone of you have trouble playing Pokémon Go?

I know that is an old game but I cannot understand why it tells me that my system is not compatible, after some minutes of gaming!

I have the latest xiaomi.eu weekly.

This is not a new problem for me, I think I tried for the last year to play it every 3-4 ROM versions but nothing changed.

In addition a friend with same phone and ROM plays without problems, also with a rooted device (mine is not rooted).
[Xiaomi Mi Note 3 Questions & Answers] dromaczek:

[Xiaomi Mi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Nucio97h:
I see.

It's strange because a friend exactly with my phone configuration (ROM, no root..) and same device is playing without problems
[Xiaomi Mi Note 3 Questions & Answers] dromaczek:
The same/not the same. Maybe different vendor partition, boot partition or something else (even it is the same rom) and pokemon go thinks that u has modified phone, friend not.

Pokemon checks on many planes whether the phone is unmodified. Very aggresuve check.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Nucio97h:
I understand.

Could, in your opinion, a full reset help?
[Xiaomi Mi Note 3 Questions & Answers] dromaczek:
Full reset no,

You could try fully flash edl china rom/global test pokemon go. and after it works flash xiaomi eu rom.

I downloaded and installed ColorOS 6 firmware from official forum source for my Realme 2 Pro RMX1801EX_11_A.17. Later I found out it's a buggy update, so I want to roll back to ColorOS 5.2 which was my previous version for Realme 2 Pro. I have the previous firmware but for obvious reason, I can't install it directly due to lower version package. Is there any workaround for downgrade to previous version?

I just ordered an Umidigi f1 play and I'm waiting for it to arrive. Excited to experiment with it. I chose it over the Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 and the Xiaomi mi lite, and I hope that was a good move. The Umidigi seems to have better support for LTE bands in the U.S. as well as NFC and the best battery of the bunch.

Where do the Umidigi users hang out? Do they frequent XDA or is there a far off forum elsewhere. Where can I have fun talking to other Umidigi users?

[General Questions and Answers] benjmiester:
I just got mine about a week ago. I'm pretty happy for what I get for $194! I've always bought used flagships but figured a new budget phone might be the way to go now. Seems like it was so far.

At some point I want to root. Mostly just for Viper4android because the speaker while very loud, is terribly shrill and high pitched. I need to eq those highs down so it can get some mids out.
[General Questions and Answers] BlurtFlabber:
In my experience budget phones sometimes break slightly faster in areas like the charging port, earphone jack, and power button. Granted almost every phone I've ever owned has had issues with ports eventually, even flagships. But, I'm determined to not allow that to happen this time. So, I invested in a magnetic USB cable (you just pop on a little USB adapter into the port and the cable magnetically attached). Yes, there's a little bump at the bottom where the adapter sticks out, but I'd rather deal with that than a broken port eventually.

You could also add Qi wireless using an adapter, but I'm not sure if it would charge as fast... and wireless charging creates heat.

I'm using Bluetooth instead of the earphone port.

I'm going to settle on an app that turns the phone on and off via the fingerprint scanner or on screen button (to save the power button).

I'm a heavy user who turns his phone on and off a LOT throughout the day, so it's probably my excessive usage rather than phone issues. But, I'm thinking ahead this time.

The Umidigi F1 play is an amazing bargain. Best budget phone available that works with U.S. carriers (in my opinion). I think you made a great choice!

The dual-sim version is already available on Ebay. But one of the sellers states that their devices are Chinese version that might come without Google Play pre-installed (and that it can be installed separately). Could anyone please clarify, are there any pitfalls in this configuration?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Synned:
Whats up guys

I have a problem with my phone with certain software, and I'm trying to figure out why. I cannot run a scheduled program and have it keep working. For example, I can run notiweather and it will work and change the wallpaper for s2u2, but it won't do it again, even though its scheduled every hour. A soft reset scheduler will also not work, along with a random boot screen changer.

I reinstalled mortscript but still am getting nowhere. What else could be the problem?

I am running UL with batterystatus, s2u2 and a few more today plugins.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] curious george:
Start by checking your power settings under you system settings. I have known devices that when the power setting is set to Power off instead of suspend then routine programs won't run. If that doesn't work check your batterstatus settings. It sometimes can be the cause. I would recommend if these 2 do not work remove everything like it from startup and see if your scheduled updates work. If it does, manually start 1 program at a time and see if it continues to function. when it finally doesn't you probably have located your conflict and need to check it out more thoroughly.

Is it possible to change IMEI on my Samsung S10 for free?

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] reikar:
Why you want to change? Only reason I could think that you have a stolen device and want to mask yourself...
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] TSever:
Actually sometimes it would not be as you think. For example in Turkey which is my living country, is only accepts registered imei numbers. If you want to buy a smartphone from another country, you have to register this phone with your passport and have to pay additional tax for this process. But it is not finished yet. Now you have to wait 3 calendar years to register a new phone. In this example if you bought a phone last year and registered it to your passport, and you want to buy new one from outside of the country this year. It is a problem you cant register your new phone and you can not use it anymore in Turkey. So only think that you can do is change the imei with registered one. Years ago i did it for my s3. But i dont know is it possible for new phones. May be it could be hardcoded.

[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] chieco:
Yes Turkey sucks regarding Phones.

Turkey puts ridiculously high taxes on Phones. For example if a Phone normally cost 1000$ they add 300$ in taxes so you end up with 1300$ which sucks. Especially since most turks are poor.

So they import or ask a relatives to buy them a Phone and bring it with them. But to prevent this from happening every Phone has to be registered with it's imei otherwise you get blacklisted and your Phone can't connect to a service.

Therefore I would agree and support this Bussiness to change imei.

[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Mickeyr6:
So I want to get my hands on the new Oneplus 7Pro.

My only concern is, the Mobile Hotspot on this device. Does it come Carrier unlocked? I'm on Verizon & don't have it added to my plan. For example on my Nexus 6p I'm able to use the Mobile Hotspot feature to share my data with other devices. On my unlocked Google Pixel 2XL it tells me that I have to call my carrier to get this feature unlocked. Mind you this is not the Verizon Pixel 2XL. It's straight from Google. This is a hit & miss with unlocked phones that work on Verizon. Can anyone of you that have the Oneplus 7 Pro on the Verizon Network help with this matter?

May depend on your plan. I have a newer unlimited plan with tethering included. I don't have to mess with the provisioning setting. Only have to tweak the throttle.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Mickeyr6:
My plan does not include Mobile Hotspot tethering

That being said. With my experience that doesn't matter, a lot depends on the device if the Hotspot feature is carrier unlocked. Examples, my Nexus 6p works fine. Pixel 2XL it prompts me to call my carrier to get that feature unlocked. Galaxy S10 again no a single problem using the hotspot. Granted all of these devices are Carrier unlocked & can be used with all US Major carriers.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] tech_head:
It won't work without rooting.

It won't have the field in the build.prop that Verizon is looking for and the only way to add it, is to root.
