[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Telone:
Compatibility on non samsung android smartphones is 90%.

Some apps are samsung restricted (like Komoot) and you will lose the ability to use email and sms app on watch. You can still reply to email and sms but only as a notification. Apart from this is perfect.

Tested firsthand
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] djwuh:
You will lose many features if you do not have a Samsung phone connected to the watch. I'm currently using the Galaxy watch with an lgv30 and my experience is terrible. You're way better off grabbing a watch with wear OS if you don't have a Samsung phone. I would trade my $400 Galaxy watch for $100 wear OS watch in a second. You will be unable to view your conversations in the messaging app, many of the Samsung Health features do not work correctly, your battery will not last as long as it does with Samsung phone users. I've also had issues with things syncing up correctly. . If you look here https://www.samsung.com/global/galaxy/galaxy-watch/device-compatibility/ at the bottom of their page it says all the limitations for iOS. They don't clearly state on this page but many of those limitations will apply to you as well if you're using the Galaxy without a Samsung phone

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] wbb1:
Hi i have samsung s8 and have lost call record function and needed it several times.

I have tried loud speaker and changing settings but want to get it working again.

What is the best solution for this as i want to keep my banking apps working aswell so i cant root the phone

I have downloaded the firmware from sammobile for android 8 but before downgrading i have alot of photos and videos i am currently backing up.

I need to know if there are other solutions as i want to get all security patches and keep banking apps working but also keep call record. and android 8 will have vulnerability.

I have heard changing phone rom to another country may keep it updated but need help to which country can i change to that will allow call records.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] loni90:
from what i know - All Android 9 roms require Root.

So you have to downgrade to Android 8 if you dont want to root.

I have Android 9 and all my banking apps work, except for Samsung Pay.

Install Magisk and you can hide root detection for your banking apps. That way you can have Android 9 with Root and enable Call record - but still have your banking apps working.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] wbb1:
I tried downgrading but it failed and i tried rooting my phone and successfully got to welcome screen after installing magisk but when i did a reboot it went into bootloop with "Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed"

I tried twice and get that message and can only install latest android 9.

I was on latest update prior to rooting so not sure if they stop flashing somehow.

I got unlock bootloader but cant flash anything as i get soft bricked.

What`s the reason for waiting so long?
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] -Mindroid-:
Xiaomi build phones very cheaply and make money through services.

Resellers buy Xiaomi phones and flash their own apps and adware.

The waiting period is to make it harder for resellers to eat up Xiaomi's profits.

Where do you see the timer? I started to check out how to unlock and flash EU-Rom today and I can unlock immediately. Did I miss something?

- I registered/recovered my mi account.

- Added device (developer mode and so on...)

- Downloaded unlocker (official)

Edit: Ah I see. Friend of mine has also the timer, maybe it has something to do with the account. I had an account for some home automation stuff
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] nmkd:
Did you already flash a ROM or TWRP to make sure it's unlocked?

For me it shows the timer when I try to unlock, it goes to 99% and then shows how many hours are left.

Started at 168h I think, now there's about 40 left.
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] fabsen:
Yes, I flashed TWRP unofficial 3.3.1. I wanted to flash xiaomi.eu_multi_HMK20MI9T_V10.3.12.0.PFJCNXM_v10-9.zip because I am on global rom but I am curious about the "CN" in the name. I thought CN=China, MI=Gobal and EU/EEA=EU

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] BluePhnx:
Sorry you can't anymore because the bootloader version (bl ver.) "7" in N950FXXS"7"DSG1 won't allow you to downgrade to a lower bl ver 6 or lower.

You now have to wait for firmware N950FTIM6DSF3 to get patched with July security patch from Samsung. Also since Germany DBT is the first firmware and Italy the 2nd july patch firmware you'll have to wait for others to catch up.

If you have any issues BACKUP your phone and do a factory reset!.

I need to rebrand it but the operator don't release all updates (one every 3-4 months).

Now i have to wait one branded firmware with BL7 for rebrand my note8?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] BluePhnx:
If you are on N950FTIM6DSF3 TIM (Italy) and want to keep data intact you'll have to wait for TIM to get updated, but if you want to be on the latest firmware from Germany DBT N950FOXM7DSG1 then you'll have to convert your N950FTIM6DSF3 csc to a multi-CSC OXM N950FOXM7DSG1 firmware which may or may not will erase your data.

You'll might have to flash the combination firmware to change the csc from TIM/TIM/TIM to DBT/DBT/(DBT or TIM not sure if this can be changed.) (BACKUP first this will delete data!)

The multi-CSC OXM doesn't support the TIM csc but it does support ITV csc (Italy). Before changing make sure you will not lose any Carrier specific features (etc. VoLTE, VoWIFI, .....) that you use.

Search for "how to change csc with a combination file" in google for more information.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DotScott1:
Alright, so at first, google was working fine. while the phone was locked, screen off and it was in my pocket, I could say "Hey google, start a timer for 5 minutes" and it would confirm and start the timer.

Then I updated... and for a while it was saying "Sorry, I can't do that while the device is locked, go ahead and unlock the device". I followed about a dozen suggestions online and one of the suggestions (I'm still not sure which one) worked.

BUT: There's now this problem of: if the screen is off and I say "hey google, start a timer for 5 minutes": The screen will turn on and show the pattern unlock screen (as if it wants me to put in the pattern). If I leave it alone, the screen eventually turns off and google finally responds with "ok, starting the timer"... but then it never actually starts the timer until I pull the device out and unlock it.

Another strange thing is that it won't use the google assistant voice I selected (I selected a natural-sounding male voice but it still uses this robotic-sounding female voice).

I've been through countless forum posts, suggested fixes, have tried everything from restarting to the phone to clearing cache, uninstalling/reinstalling google assistant, changing security settings and even went as far as to factory reset the entire phone... nothing has worked so far. The problem I think is that all of those are solutions to problems that are SIMILAR to, but not exactly like, this. I'm wondering if anyone else has run into this specific problem and if you have: were you able to fix it? How?

It's just really annoying :/ This used to work so well. I used

it for EVERYTHING. Now it doesn't really work at all unless I have my phone out and unlocked :(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DotScott1:
Darn, it IS actually still telling me "actually, I can't do that while the device is locked. To keep going, go ahead and unlock the device". SO yeah... still just doesn't do anything at all if the device is locked. Only way I can get it to work is to uninstall all updates... but then it it reinstall those updates whenever I tell google play to update all. If I want to avoid that I guess I just have to go install updates individually/manually?... :/ This stinks. Just want my google assistant back to how it was working before :( (aka actually working - while the device is locked).

This is the seller which my friend is working with. He is trusted since me and my friends bought a lot from him.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Hunter3U:
So you save up to 200 euro to wait at least 30 days for shipping from a sketchy retailer you have no info on.

Or just wait 25 days, you will potentially be able to save up that extra 200 euro, then order directly from oneplus or another trusted retailer near you and get it in the same or possibly sooner time frame and it will be the correct model for your region.

Gone off the idea of using AliExpress,seems it's hit or miss when you will actually receive the device and stores advertising 6-8 days DHL is just an empty promise and then you've got the possibility of dealing with Customs,It's easy to get pulled in with the prices but overall not worth the hassle.

[LG V35 Questions & Answers] Mity85:
Questions:

1. Are security patches a concern if I am not downloading 3rd party apps, not going to questionable websites (like porn), not doing any banking and mainly using the phone as an actual phone for calls, texts, and Whatsapp?

2. I came across this thread https://xdaforums.com/lg-g7-thinq/how-to/guide-how-to-flash-stock-firmware-lock-t3820888 about flashing (near) stock firmware. Where do these files come from? Are they officially published by LG? And how do updates work if you flash your phone?

3. Is there any reason to not get the unlocked Amazon Prime version? People have stated that the Amazon apps can be disabled (though not deleted) and that Amazon no longer puts ads on the phones.

Backstory:

I've been an iPhone user since the 5 but my first smartphone was a Samsung Galaxy. It seems that Android has come a long way and I want to break out of the Apple ecosystem. I like the width of the V35's keyboard and those extra columns for apps is really cool. However, I do value Apple's security updates. I don't want my mail to be compromised. Given the questions above, would I be okay (with regards to cybersecurity) with getting a V35?

1. Delete everything in TWRP except vendor. I'm on latest vendor 9.7.11.

2. Format data ( confirm with typing 'yes')

3. Restart recovery

4. Install Beastrom

5. Wipe cache / dalvik

6. Restart system

7. When system started turn back to recovery for installing gapps

8. In TWRP resize system partition to install micro gapps. (Under wipe --> advanced --> tick system --> use option change size or something like that. Don't know for sure which option it is.)

9. Install micro gapps, now you don't get an error because you changed the system partition size.
