[ZTE Axon 10 Pro Questions & Answers] cipriol:
I'm using the Chinese 8/256 version and it works fine in terms of calls and data but messaging is iffy. Looks like about a third of the SMS people send me is not getting through to me. It appears T-Mobile is using several bands for texting and one or two of those are not supported by this phone. I am now looking at switching carriers but still haven't figured out which one is using all the bands this phone has.
[ZTE Axon 10 Pro Questions & Answers] jim262:
I have imported this phone from China as well. I have the 128GB version. I am on T-MOBILE and everything works fine. There are a couple of issues with the Chinese OS shutting down Google Assistant and the Google news feed, as well as, not being able to access backups on Google, but other than those minor issues, the phone works fine.
[ZTE Axon 10 Pro Questions & Answers] liteon163:
The ZTE website for the US shows the Axon 10 Pro has more bands than the kimovil states. I'll believe the manufacturer. Therefore, purchasing the US version of the phone should allow you to use it on many carriers. I've even heard that users on Verizon could use it if they have the phone provisioned for CDMA-less service. (Verizon does this with many other phones, like the Razer Phone 2)

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] larwilliams:
Hello,

I have an old LG G5 that is affected by the bootloop issue that is known to occur in the G4, G5 and other LG phones. Has anyone ever determined for certain which chip causes this for the most part? This is basically a throwaway phone and I'm looking to practice my soldering skills so I can get comfortable and move on to other projects (such as modding my NES for better video output).

Any help would be appreciated.

[Xiaomi Redmi 6A Questions & Answers] LeHalua:
I use my Redmi 6A as an Wi-Fi hotspot to use its data on laptop. But since I started doing this, I notice that its hotspot is not working as it should be.

Every once in a while, internet connection goes away, while Wi-Fi stays connected. It happens especially after the laptop is rebooted and Wi-Fi reconnects. If that happens then I'll have to turn off hotspot on my phone and start the hotspot again for the Wi-Fi to work.

I tried to see where the problem is, and I found out these:

1. Wi-Fi stays connected, but no internet.

2. It happens after random period of time after the laptop is connected to the hotspot

3. It also happens when the laptop is rebooted and then it connects again to the hotspot.

4. From the laptop, ping to gateway IP does not work. Ping to any other IP also not work.

5. Turning off and on again the hotspot solves the problem. And then it happens again.

Do anyone else face this problem?

Can anyone tell me why is this happening?

ROM version: 10.3.2.0 Global (Problem was also happening since a few previous versions.)

Laptop: Windows 10, Ubuntu (problem is not in the laptop, because it works fine on other phone's hotspot)

[Glass General] fabriono80:
These cameras are really only sold for the zoom feature. The fact is, there’s a reason that the equipment needed for quality photos of distant subjects in motion is so expensive. At the end of the day, these Nikon cameras are just your slightly above average point-and-shoot cameras with a giant plastic lens and some newer optical zoom/stabilization tech. The autofocus capability and sensor tech suffer from the same issues most other cheaper cameras do. That being said, there’s no real throwing money at the situation to even come close to that zoom capability otherwise, hence why it’s pretty special/unique in the space. Even if you’re a pro wildlife photog and are one of the few Canon 1200mm L series owners for example, you still aren’t getting as close with zoom and that lens costs more than some houses. But if you’re looking to get into taking better stuff of your kids sports and birds in your backyard, consider getting into photography and buy something with better autofocus and image quality over something like the p900/p1000. I’d Nox Vidmate VLC recommend something from the Sony a6XXX series and a 70-200/70-300 personally as a starting point for anyone going down that rabbit hole.

[OPPO Reno 10x Zoom Questions & Answers] Prometheus80:
Just recently successfully made the Nova launcher my default launcher and while doing that, I also made my default sms app a third party. Now, the phone doesn't prompt me with having to make it a default, but I have a new problem with the third party now :( anyone know any way around this?

I tried uploading screenshots of the messages that pop up, but that doesn't seem to be an option. Before I send a message, I get prompted by the system this:

"Mood (my third party)" wants to send a chargeable SMS. Please input your fingerprint and verify your identity to send it.

It asks me that every time I send something, but besides that, everything else is fine. After I use the fingerprint, it sends, but doing that all the time is not possible, so it becomes inconvenient. Help?

Hello, so after I install a custom ROM, after 2-3 weeks of using it, my phone gets stuck, and then reboots. After the reboot, the phone acts weird: no notifications are shown, home/recents buttons not working, some apps not working and not locking and some options just reset.

Thank you in advance.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lonkar:
?? Yep i know this thing few symptoms were shown on my osprey so it happened to me bz i just to test many custom rom and many time there residue remain uncleaned even after many twrp formats (it weird but i think this happens) so try clearing your intenal storageand (no need to clean memory just remove it) even remove you sim crad and memory cards

flash a recovery from your current recovery if there is not update just reflash the current recovery and then just make it a reboot to recovery ( msg will pop up no os found but there will be no issue if you're rebooting directly to the recovery)

So after reboot put your memory card in phone where you will store your rom and gapps ( if memory not detected just reboot to recovery one more time) puff install things let your sim cards in enjoy your rom

If this thing failes go install stock firmware its an ultimate solution

Before installing any Custom rom do a,"Nandroid" backup and then a Factory Reset.

Then once the rom has installed and before setting the phone up do another,"Factory Reset".

I've found this the best way to make sure the install is really good and clean :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] gruuvin:
I bought a SM-N960U1 unbranded US unlocked model, and I immediately updated it to Android 9. THEN I inserted my T-Mobile sim, and I have wifi calling. I did all of this a few weeks ago, and I never really questioned it all until today.

I'm posting this now because I read that people cannot get wifi calling to work on their unbranded model unless they flash carrier firmware.

And this is what I've found. When I make a call while connected to wifi, I see the little wifi symbol on my phone symbol, as if the call is a wifi call. I have a toggle for wifi calling, which works! If I toggle wifi calling off and make the call again, no wifi symbol on the phone symbol. When I look in settings > connections, I do NOT have items to set wifi calling and VoLTE. However, I can search settings for wifi calling and I will find the Samsung 'Wi-Fi Calling' app (com.sec.unifiedwfc 6.0.33.47) RUNNING!

So, it seems I have wifi calling working on T-Mobile, with just the Samsung stock firmware and not the carrier firmware. Which is great! No carrier bloat.

I just tested my wifi calling by starting a wifi call and then walking out of wifi range, and it definitely works! At the edge of wifi range, the call broke up, handed over to the cell tower, and became noticeably less clear. I'm stoked to have wifi calling without carrier bloat.

I might investigate further if there are some settings I can toggle over adb (wifi preferred, etc)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Gary02468:
It depends on the carrier. T-Mobile does support all of its services, including WiFi calling, on the N960U1. Some other carriers do not. Always check with your carrier before buying an unbranded phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] gruuvin:
I also just discovered that toggle button text is CLICKABLE, and I can access Wi-Fi Calling SETTINGS when I tap on the wifi calling toggle's text, which gives me the option to turn on/off wifi calling, wifi/cell preferred.

So I have Wi-Fi Callng, can change settings, all in the stock non-branded firmware of the SM-N960U1.

AWESOME!

[Google Pixel 3a Guides, News, & Discussion] Wdenton:
Hey all, just wanted to try and combine the bits and pieces of the "how to update OTA for rooted/BL unlocked" phones into one place as a quick run down for myself (and others who might have the same question) for the OTA:

Grab OTA update manually

Uninstall Edge Sense Mod from Magisk

Plug in phone into PC

adb reboot recovery

adb fastboot flash "stock boot.img"

adb sideload "OTA file name"

Reboot to bootloader using the volume and power button

adb fastboot flash "patched image to inactive slot (no idea how yet, sorry! Will add command)"

Reboot phone

Go back into Magisk and install manager for root

Re-install Edge Sense Mod within Magisk

*Optional*Re-apply Magisk Hide

Please let me know if there's any steps I'm missing or how it could be made easier for others to understand and if there's credit(s) missing (10+ hr shift and running on strong tea only 11 hr shift arguing with doctors to actually provide care instead of leeching insurance, and insurance to pay the damn medical claims instead of baton passing them to patients).

Disclaimer:

I'm no developer, just a common user that wants to make it a bit more convenient for other Pixel 3a owners to OTA update while rooted/BL unlocked. If it didn't work, or you encountered error(s), let me know and I can link them in so others can learn.

Disclaimer 2:

The above step(s) is assuming you've used pbanj's method for getting Magisk. Apparently I should add this as there's the "conventional" and "unconventional" method for Magisk. Had no idea since there was no guide available informing people otherwise at the time of making this step-by-step guide.

Credits:

pbanj for Pixel 3a root and Magisk images saving a MASSIVE some time, and its thread for the above steps.

googlephoneFKLenAsh for details of what I was missing in my initial steps.

sic0048 for making the root confusion apparent, and making a modified boot image method (the pbanj Magisk) here and his guide for rooting here.
[Google Pixel 3a Guides, News, & Discussion] googlephoneFKLenAsh:
Before step 5, you need to fastboot flash stock boot.img before doing "adb sideload ota file".
[Google Pixel 3a Guides, News, & Discussion] alliance1975:
I think step 7 should specify flashing patched image to inactive slot, (a or b), so as to be on the new active slot after a reboot, (step 8).

---------- Post added at 08:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:28 AM ----------

I followed the op procedure and it worked without flashing the stock boot image. To what slot would you flash the stock image, active slot or inactive slot? Can it be flashed to old slot after step 8 reboot? Would there be any benefit?
[Google Pixel 3a Guides, News, & Discussion] sic0048:
I'm not sure why people insist that using the "modified" boot images make the update process faster or easier..... I assure you it does not.

Here is the update process if you install Magisk the normal way......

- Magisk: Click “Uninstall” → “restore images” → NO REBOOT

- Download and install OTA → NO REBOOT

- Clear all apps from recents (probably not even needed, but better to be safe than sorry).

- Magisk: Click “Install” → “Install to second/inactive slot (After OTA)”

- Reboot

That's all......... and it's all done from the phone. No computer or ADB is required for updates.

Tell me how that is harder than your method or how your method saves "a MASSIVE amount of time"?????

Look, I'll be the first to admit that using the modified boot images does make the initial root process easier and faster - by a few steps and about 2 minutes of time. But you will pay for it when it comes time to update your phone.
[Google Pixel 3a Guides, News, & Discussion] alliance1975:
Forgive me sic0048. You helped me in another post but I feared doing the initial step, magisk-uninstall-restore images. My reading of these forums indicates there is no stock image to restore since it was overwritten by the patched image during the initial root process. It is the transition from using patched images to doing a normal Magisk install that I lack knowledge of.
[Google Pixel 3a Guides, News, & Discussion] duh1:
Great point, difference between downloading a patched boot image vs patching yourself is not clear as to how it affects the OTA update...
[Google Pixel 3a Guides, News, & Discussion] sic0048:
I totally understand the confusion......

If you use normal Magisk installation method where you let Magisk modify the stock boot.img file, then the OTA update method that I described above should work. Because you let Magisk modify the stock boot image, it will be able to use the stock image in the first step - Magisk: Click “Uninstall” → “restore images” → NO REBOOT

If you used the "modified boot image" method, you were able to skip the step where you let Magisk modify the stock boot image. This saves time initially, but it comes back to bit you during an OTA update because Magisk is unable to use the stock image to uninstall itself. You are correct that the normal Magisk "How to Take an OTA Update" instructions will fail if you used the modified boot image to gain root initially.

I guess I didn't realize that you had used the "modified boot image" method. Here is my recommendation to all those that have used the modified boot image method - start over.........

- use the Magisk manager app to Uninstall Magisk using the "Complete Uninstall" method.

- Pull the stock boot.img from the applicable factory image (whatever OS version/update you are currently on). Downloads are available here https://developers.google.com/android/images

- Using your computer, flash the stock boot.img file by using the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img"

- Reinstall Magisk using the "normal" method....

- Put the stock boot.img file on your phone's root SD card location

- Use the Magisk manager app to modify the stock boot.img

- move the magisk_modified boot image to your computer

- flash the magisk_modified boot image to the boot partition using the command "fastboot flash boot <patched_boot.img file name>"

- reboot

Then follow the instructions I gave for the normal OTA update process listed a couple posts above.

---------- Post added at 02:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:14 PM ----------

Magisk isn't missing this option, it's just that the method suggested by pbanj in this thread bypasses the normal method. It's not an issue with Magisk, it's an issue with the root method being suggested.

What I really need to do is create another "How to Root" thread and list the normal and recommended method. The confusion comes from people coming to this site and reading pbanj's thread and thinking that is the correct way to root. It is not the correct way to root.
[Google Pixel 3a Guides, News, & Discussion] duh1:
Normally you would flash the stock boot image to the active slot to unroot the phone prior to installing the OTA.

Confused as to why flashing stock boot is no longer necessary. If this works as stated, it would appear the OTA is no longer patching the phone's boot and system partitions as had been done in the past. So perhaps the OTA now installs full boot and system images?
[Google Pixel 3a Guides, News, & Discussion] sic0048:
I had read, but have not confirmed myself, that the OTA images did include the boot and system img. However I just checked and the factory image for the June update on Bonito is 1.6gb while the "full OTA" image is only 1.1gb. So the two images are not identical. It's not like you saving a bunch of time by not uninstalling Magisk first and I don't think I would skip this simple step with the hope it would work. I'll continue to follow the recommended procedure that the Magisk developer has come up with and I would recommend to others that they do the same.
[Google Pixel 3a Guides, News, & Discussion] duh1:
It's smaller as the OTA only contains the partitions that have changed such as system and boot. The other partitions are probably cloned over from the active slot to the inactive slot.

As I mentioned previously, the Magisk tutorial does not account for not having a backup of the stock boot image when you download the patched boot, so to remove boot prior to installing the OTA, you must manually flash the stock boot.
[Google Pixel 3a Guides, News, & Discussion] googlephoneFKLenAsh:
Before step 5, flash stock boot.img to slot a (or just use getvar to get the current active slot. It should be slot a before first ota). If you don't flash stock boot img, you will get error message "E: Failed to verify package compatibility".

I think you didn't get this message because you actually restored stock boot.img when you uninstalled magisk. For those who rooted their phone by flashing patched boot.img, magisk doesn't know the location of stock boot.img.

Then in step 7, flash patched boot.img to slot b (after ota, the active changes to slot b. If there is new ota in the future, just use getvar to find out the active slot)

Thanks to all, was not expecting this much reply in this short amount of time, at all.

[Google Pixel 3a Guides, News, & Discussion] duh1:
How else could the phone have been rooted besides flashing a patched boot image on a device without a custom recovery, such that Magisk on his device knows where to find the stock boot image?
[Google Pixel 3a Guides, News, & Discussion] googlephoneFKLenAsh:
Learn how to read a few posts in this thread.

Root method 1: install magisk, patch the stock boot image, then flash the patched boot image to gain root. Magisk knows where the stock boot image is. In this case, just follow the instructions to take ota: uninstall magisk to restore stock boot image and take ota, then reroot.

Root method 2: flash patched boot image provided by someone in the forum, then install magisk to get root. In this case Magisk doesn't have a backuped stock boot image. So the regular instructions of uninstalling Magisk to restore stock boot image doesn't work and you need to manually flash stock boot image to take ota.
