[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] OhioYJ:
They are encrypted. I see you are using BluSpark's TWRP, what OS / Version are you running? Does BluSpark work with the May security patch? Previous versions of TWRP had problems with the latest security patch and could not decrypt it.

Boot 3.3.1-6 from here then see if your files are still encrypted.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] tjlmbklr:
I'm running 9.0.11

I'll try that version you linked. Thanks. I assume I have to install using adb sor USB OTG since my internal file system is encrypted, right?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] dj_ooms:
Yeah, either use a USB drive through OTG or copy it to internal (when in OOS) and use fastboot to boot the newer TWRP. You should be able to install from internal storage after that.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Duvel999:
Disable fingerprint, smartlock , face recognizing etc.

It's security related.

Reboot

Then the folders show normal
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] OhioYJ:
9.0.14 has the May security patch and the new encryption, which will be an issue. I'm not sure why you are seeing that with 9.0.11, but definitely try the other version I linked to, I know it is up to date. Worst case, as mentioned, if you temporarily remove your password / pin code / pattern everything will just work. However then you will have to redo this, along with all your finger prints. Not that it's a big deal. Just get the right TWRP, and you won't have to do that.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] tjlmbklr:
Temporarily disabled? I'm not sure how to disable other than delete the fingerprints all together. Will I need to do this every time I need.to boot into recovery?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] OhioYJ:
If you just delete your password / pin / etc, it will automatically delete all your finger prints and your TWRP problem will go away. No you should NOT need to do this. This is only because you don't have an up to date, or the wrong version of TWRP installed. I never remove my password and go into TWRP all the time. It's not an issue.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] pbergonzi:
I think all you need to do here is turn off your screen lock by setting it to "None."

When you reboot to TWRP, you should see the files now unencrypted.

TWRP had the potential to allow you to input a "Pattern" screen lock, but I can't guarantee it will work under all circumstances, nor do I know what it does with fingerprint scans, etc.

Converted my 7pro to international from tmobile some time ago. Bootlader and sim unlocked, rooted, have custom kernel, and working on 9.5.7.. I want upgrade to 9.5.8, downloaded full zip multiple times for GM21AA, md5 checked, everything works.. Moved downloaded ZIP file to root folder (internal memory), but i can't see the update under settings > system > system updates > settings > local upgrade..

restarted, cleared cache.. etc.. tried all possible ways. Even oxygen updater app sees that there is an update zip in place. But what the hell happening in local upgrade section, am i missing a step here?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] byt3b0mb:
Did you put the full zip file on the root of your internal storage? Meaning it has to be on /sdcard/ not /sdcard/downloads
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] flayzeraynx:
Yes i did, its definitely on internal storage (root)
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] HtcOnekid:
Also I notice something similar when I download a full zip and it was that after .zip it also had .jar so it looked like this( ? Name.zip.jar ) so I rename it and deleted jar and I was able to see under local update
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] flayzeraynx:
It definitely has no extension other than zip
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] rickysidhu_:
Do you have renovate rom installed?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] flayzeraynx:
Its international 9.5.7 oos
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] H4X0R46:
My best guess is to check the md5 hash of that zip and see if it matches the one on the OP website. If it doesn't match, you have a bad download. Also, can you open the zip with a file manager or does it TELL you it's corrupt? In any case, I'd say redownload the zip.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] flayzeraynx:
Thats the interesting part. Md5 is matching, and yes i can see the contents of zip file when i tap it. I downloaded 5 times already :(

In last 10 phones in my life, this is first time happening
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] H4X0R46:
Yeah that IS weird, never seen that before.... So when all else fails, I'd use fastboot to boot TWRP and then install the zip that way. Is your bootloader unlocked? Use the command "fastboot boot [file name].img" then flash it there, if you're gonna install the TWRP zip to have it permanently, remember to install Magisk as well, it's needed for the phone to boot in that case.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] mptpro:
Did you ever find a solution to this? I am having the same issue. .zip file is downloaded, not corrupt and in the root folder, but "system update / local upgrade" doesn't see it.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] daABBA:
Some file explorers doesn't show the extension. It may be the case that your file is named "name.zip.jar", but when your looking at it, .jar is dropped, showing only "name.zip". This makes you believe .zip is the extension, while it's not, rather just part of the filename.

And now I took the plunge and ordered the 12gb nebula blue version lol

I'm bracing myself for rma hell, touch sensitive, ghost touch, camera, stuttering,battery, heating and overall quality control issues. Hope it's a worthy replacement to my 512gb midnight black note 9 which has been flawless. Looking forward to giving my final verdict.

Why would replace your flawless phone that's not even one 1 year old?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] insomnia77:
Only reason is for no notch and larger display. I upgrade when new notes or galaxy phones come out with larger displays then previous but since note 10 has a notch oneplus only other option. If the 7 pro is good I don't see a need to upgrade for a long time because the display cant get any bigger now. So I hope it doesn't disappoint since I've been happy with Samsung.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] insomnia77:
Thats fair. But I'm not a oneplus fanboy and I'm sure some other people might appreciate a more critical review.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] jhofseth:
you have to like the OnePlus 7 Pro for its bootloader unlock potential

Bootloader unlock and unobstructed screen are the best two points of the OnePlus 7 Pro, IMHO. If you live in the US, buying Samsung flagships is frustrating due to bootloader locked Snapdragon variants. If you focus on the positive benefits of the OnePlus 7 Pro, you'll be satisfied. :)
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] B3311:
Me neither. Also will appreciate a more critical review, just not yours. You gave a long lists of reasons in your previous thread to not buy it without ever having held the device. So why should your review carry any weight?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mettleh3d:
Samsung S2,S6,S7e,S8+ user and this was the only device that swooned me away from Samsung. You're gonna love it. (With some minor withdrawals if you enjoyed some of the Samsung add-ons)

Also, don't approach the purchase with negativity, but with anticipation.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Eric214:
Most of the critical reviews were on the release and 9.5.3 FW's. Since the 9.57 the issues people compalined about are gone. No ghost touches (I never had them) and the camera is right there with the Pixel phones now and should actually get a little better still with future updates. The IP rating (most useless thing to cry about) and the Wireless charging (isn't needed, somethign to just cry about) are 2 "features" that aren't needed. I don't have womens hands so it's not that much bigger then some of the other phones out there and the weight is about the same as the Note's and the IPhone Max's weight.

IF those reviewers did a second review after the 9.5.7 update most are completely on board now and don't have anything to complain about.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Reuben_skelz92:
Bracing for stuttering ?? And your coming from a note 9. That's priceless ??
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] insomnia77:
Well that sounds encouraging. I did notice less complaints over at the oneplus support forums and I'm looking forward to getting it, now that it's getting more polished.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] BossNexusS:
My phone is flawless.. This is what happens when you listen to all the problems that only a certain few are having.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] insomnia77:
The thing is they almost doubled the price for this phone. I'm wondering how much loyal people will be if they keep increasing the price with each successor. I had the first oneplus phone on release. For the price it was ahead of their time. They should of fixed all the bugs before releasing this one because people's expectations are higher now especially since they loose their value fast.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] TAMARETTE:
I just bought my oneplus 6T a few months ago for 550. Last month I upgraded to my OnePlus 7 pro for 669 with 8 gigs of Ram and 256 Gb of UFS 3.0 memory. I paid about 150 more. So in what world is that double the price. And OnePlus 7 buyers are actually paying LESS. Coming from a Samsung user OnePlus is one hell of a bargain.

:):)

For Pete's sake - that is NONSENSE. A ridiculous statement, patently untrue and can be confirmed by anyone in seconds. How old are you anyway?

You have zero credibility. None. Are you trolling?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] cpufrost:
The prices of these phones will keep going up as long as the big mfrs (SEC/AAPL) keep raising theirs. I got a 1TB S10+ ceramic for $1279 and that was $$$ but the original price of $1599? And don't even get me started on folding phones. Had one preordered because, well you know, I'm a sucker for it I guess. But times are changing and it seems like innovation is slowing down. I mean, come on, how much more do they expect (a phone) to do?!

The OnePlus One was officially unveiled on*23 April 2014*for a limited release on 25 April: described as a "flagship killer", its prices were set at US$299 and US$349 for the 16 GB and 64 GB models respectively—which one critic estimated was roughly half the price of the then recently unveiled Samsung Galaxy S5.-
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] rootSU:
You do know that OnePlus One was released with an open source CyanogenMod (No software team expense) and with everything mediocre apart from the processor??

And OP1 is what OP7 is right now, not OP7Pro.

And I don't know if OP7 is launched in Canada, but where I live, it's currently almost half the price of S10 as on amazon (US$890 for S10 8G 128GB, US$475 for OP7 6G 128GB).
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] insomnia77:
No one plus 7 in Canada. Your very fortunate. . 475 for oneplus 7 over s10 is a no brainer. Now only of they bring those prices to Canada.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] macs18max:
True. That when I purchased the phone 9.5.7 upgrade was already released, and I have no software issues.

Battery life is great if you are not playing resource hungry games. I play pubg so drain seems faster, but I can't believe the charging time of the device, super fast so that issue won't concern you if you have your charger near you.

Only things I can pick on is the weight of the device. Seems heavier than competitors. Although I am used to it, and only time I notice it is heavy is when I pick up other phone.

[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Mike_77:
Funny thing - The Galaxy S5 came out in 2014 for only $650 (MSRP) and now costs $1419 (S10+ Canada)... So while the price of the OP7 Pro is twice the original OnePlus cost, so is the S10. How about you compare apples to apples if you're going to bring up price increases?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] insomnia77:
I was referring to all manufacturers charging over a 1000 for phones now is unacceptable. But one plus built its reputation by offering more for less. Now the price gap is closing. All I'm saying if they want to charge more for phones then they need to compete in all departments. Thst being said Samsung tends to have some good sales. In Canada the note 9 512 is 1850. On release I got it for 950 after trade in for old phone, spc discount etc. And the note has been a solid phone from day one. I just paid 400 more for the pro because it's the best option without a notch and maybe the 90hz screen adds some value.

I'm sure the 7 pro is a good phone but there are other cheaper phones coming out from China that are going to give it a run for its money.

how to rollback to oreo

the option of switch to other version isn't appeared in hisuite
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] southsideservz:
I have to rave on this stereo BT head set. I have been tying to find one that I like for quite some time really exercising the 30 day return policies. I wanted somthing that had the best of both worlds, regular mono ear piece and an atachable ear bud for the stereo and this one has deffinatly got it right. Best sound yet, best fit and good looking. I was very impresed I think this one is a keeper, oh one down fall the price but still under $120.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] mbernstein:
I have one since december. It is (was) great, but...

The concept is great. The size too. The sound is OK to good with both earplugs. Problems are:

- the connection of the second earplug with the main one (the one with the battery) is very, very sensitive. After two months of use, it became so loose that I lost contact and couldn't use the stereo anymore. They should have made it like a "screw" plug or even an small USB plug, or RCA plug. The way it is, two small metal plates on the setero plug that have to "touch" another two small metal plates in the main plug is too sensitive and unreliable for real usage.

- two weeks ago, the place where you connected the stereo plug and which now I was using to plug the ear hook broke...

- Now I'm using it just with the earbud... only six months.

Again, great concept, and bad implemantation. I even thought about buying another one and use it more gently, but I guess that's unrealistic. I believe I should be able to put the headphone in my pocket or bag without worring too much.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] mbernstein:
duplicate, sorry.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] MustBNuts:
I found and bought mine (Voyager 855) after searching on the internet...plain white box, plenty of replacement pieces, for onlyl.... ready for this....

$46.00.

The only issue I ever had was making sure it was connected when I needed it, installing A2DPToggle solved that issue, and all is now right with the world.

MBN

PS: got mine at cellphoneshop.net/855.html and have had several coworkers order from them and all has worked out well. Unfortunately, they've been out of stock for about a month now :(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] southsideservz:
How did A2DPToggle solve what? Mine stays connected most of the time.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] MustBNuts:
SouthSideSvz,

before I installed the toggle, for unknown reasons the connection would drop and I found reconnecting a pain....

A caveat, though, this was happening when I first got the phone and the earpiece....haven't had any problems since then. But I have heard that the BT can drain the battery, so with the toggle I can shut down BT on the phone side too.

How much of it is a crutch, who knows... but I like it!

MBN
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] gai-jin:
I just bought this same headset, and have also experienced it dropping connection and being hard to get reconnected. I thought maybe I was doing something wrong. At this point, do you think the toggle app is actually helping the problem?

I'm wondering if it's not just the simple fact that you turn bluetooth off and on, so it sort of resets itself, rather than anything this program does differently. However, I'm more than willing to give it a try!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Rayan:
I have one since about 6 months ago. A friend of mine that works at Plantronics Mexico gave it to me as a present and to test it out.

Honestly it's been a great product, it even survived a trip to the washer machine and it's still ticking!

The only problem I see with this particular set is that the connector on the loop is really flimsy (I'm on my second loop) so you'd better be careful and never let it plugged in while you store it on your pants or backpack, it breaks really easy (maybe it's just because my unit it's a pre-production set) but be careful nevertheless.

The sound is really bassy and loud for such small speakers it has very nice sound range.

The battery lasts for a few days of moderate use on stereo and a few weeks moderate use on mono.

One thing I like about it (which many will find disturbing) is that it isolates all sound from the exterior, so be careful while driving or things like that.

I give a 8.5/10 to this product.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] mbernstein:
I liked mine as much as you did, but then it didn't last long enough as I explained above.

I do believe they can change the implementation and keep all its good qualities that are many (let's be honest, there is not one other set that is as discreet/small and less cumbersome than this). I would know how to do it, so they just have to be willing to do so, I guess.

Perhaps you can pass my ideas to your friend. I would share them for free... :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Rayan:
I will pass the info to my friend ASAP. However as far as I know, the Bluetooth Division was recently moved to China...

I remember my pal told me beforehand that this particular model has some (undisclosed) issues (well he mentioned battery not lasting long enough). Same with a newer mono model called Diamond or something like that.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] mbernstein:
Hey, these are just user's ideas. I'm not talking about engineering stuff.

They seem to be simple things (though you never know) like:

- connection of the stereo earbud: the way it is, it is just two metal plates touching each other. Very easy for things to get loose and lose contact. Happened with me. They either should use a RCA type plug or USB type plug (most likely).

- Also the stereo connection is also used to help support the headset on our ears. Fact is the headset weight is put on...THE STEREO CONTACTS, helping them get loose. So, Ear hook should be separated from connection to relieve it from weight stress.

- they could position the stereo connection where presently is the charger, and perhaps (if possible) make the connection be dual function like the Kaiser, where you can use the mini-USB both to charge and to connect headphone.

My two cents. Seems feasible.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] PostoronnimV:
Got my voyager 855 and it's sounds muffled on one earbud (the one with buttons). Using Tilt with one of the hybrid Dutty roms. The one you piggyback to main unit sounds much louder and very clear. Tested also without putting them in ear and with eargels off, switched ears. Anything I can try before requesting a replacement?

Thanks!
[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] student975:
Hi!

I have tried two headphones (Sennheiser M2 IEBT and Focal Listen Wireless) and two audio players (Youtube Music and BlackPlayer) and got the same result: after toggling a pause on headset any attempt to resume a playback after a couple of minutes results in nothing. That is Bluetooth control is lost. I'm forced to take a phone, unlock, start player and start playing back.

It is interesting, with Huawei MediaPad M5 8.4 I don't have the problem regardless headphones and players: Bluetooth control is kept at any case.

The most performant mode is selected in battery settings. The last official firmware (169) is installed.

Please, help me to resolve this very annoying issue!
[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] NekoMichi:
I've noticed that when I play media content using a third-party app and then pause it from a Bluetooth device, sometimes that app gets terminated in the background and when I try to resume, it starts playing from the stock EMUI music app instead.

Although I haven't tried this, disabling battery optimisations for your music apps might prevent them from being terminated in the background.
[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] student975:
Yes, all battery optimisations for players are disabled. Also, a lock was activated for players on recent apps screen.

I have tried a couple of settings on the developer configuration list (amount of background processes and amount of Bluetooth devices), but was not lucky.

[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] kullino:
Hello everybody,

i bought a "new" xz1c, for a fair price from a pro smartphone seller.

Today i got it, opened the package and was shocked. Dust, little dirt, little scratches inside the package.

The phone was sealed with a film, but it isnt the original one.

I dont break the seal / film, first look themes to be a phone in perfect condition, but used extras.

I started the phone, android 8.0.0, fw was dated to 27.10.2017 (found by google).

Now i am confused. In germany sellers are allowed to sell "short" time tested phones as new, without tell you before buying.

And if it is only short tested , the price would be Ok for a black phone (60$ more than for a brand new in blue, but i want a black one).

But i am afraid that the phone isnt short tested, because of the very old fw, maybe flashed back?

A used phone in perfect condition, is only the half price in germany.

Whats about the quality of the body? Is it possible to use it 1 1/2 year without any scratches?

Best regards Kullino
