[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] e753:
Hello, my original screen protector is coming off :(

What do you suggest should I do? Samsung does not change it, does it?

I read the glass screen protectors on the market are not so goods, too may problems with fingerprints and so on..
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] brunotuga:
Well just buy a new one from amazon... I. Just order a 2 pack spigen pack 7.99 on amazon... This one has light scratches and the spigen on my note 9 is brilliant...

On the finger print side can't say as haven't put it but will tomorrow. People on the reviews say it works fine so...
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] VidJunky:
Samsung does not replace it but they offer a similar version to the OEM that came on the phone. I remember seeing a lot of talk about them being $29.xx for a three pack. That seemed kind of high to me when for not much more you could do the Dome Glass. There have been mixed reviews of the Dome Glass. The most common complaint seems to be that it is difficult to install. It looks simple and straight forward, watching the videos on YouTube, but in the real world things are never perfect. There is one video on YouTube, 14 screen protectors for the S10+, or something like that and the vlogger puts on, tests and talks about all 14 different screen protectors. If you don't want to watch the whole video, it kind of long, he lists his recommendations in order from the best to the worst in the video notes. Over at Android Central I posted a question about this, https://forums.androidcentral.com/s...dome-glass-stock-something-else-new-post.html, and was surprised how many people are going without anything. I keep watching the front camera area for scratches and have just about convinced myself to go naked too. Mine isn't lifting up but it is pretty scratched up with a few deep enough to feel.

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] e753:
I saw that some protector are above the camera, others not. I read that it is not good for the lens to have a film over.. Am I right?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] jhs39:
Screen protectors don't provide drop protection for phones with edge to edge displays and minimal bezels because the vast majority of the time a phone gets dropped on one of its sides rather than the area the screen protector is covering.

But people who walk around with their phone in their pocket or in a bag will scratch up their displays if they don't use a screen protector. The display doesn't ever have to come into contact with anything as obvious as coins or keys to get scratched--particles of sandlike grit that turn up inside a pocket will scratch a smartphone screen.

Whether or not you need a screen protector pretty much depends on how you carry your phone but people who think they are purchasing drop protection often end up disappointed.

Spigen neoflex had bad orange peel effect on the note 8 and note 9 series.

Not on mine and to be fair on this one have put it on at around 4 pm is really good now dry and clear...

Well I thought that was bad as soon I put it but after a few hrs the marks do go away and its nice... Well the protection vs the original is better to be fair

Also worth mentioning that the blue light filter is on the the pics and is almost all the way up... So maybe why looks orange.

Hello,

I know their keys different but I try clean install. I wiped System, Cache, Dalvik / ART Cache and Format Data.

I can't transfer any zip file via ADB Sideload. I always face same problem on TWRP.

"E1001: Failed to update system image.

Updater process ended with ERROR: 7"

I installed succesfully official Lineage OS with same method in past but now I can't transfer/install same old official or different unofficial any zip file.

What I don't understand is Google's factory image transferring and installing without any problem.

You get this error in TWRP during installation of unofficial LOS16 because from 20190719 build and beyond you have to do repartition procedure in order to increase system partition.

Just look here https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=79928889&postcount=190

If you've never done repartition before you're good to go with post i've provided.

Otherwise you have to return stock partition layout.You have to look at the following post in order to do this procedure https://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/orig-development/repartition-nexus-5-repartition-t3844395

My A3 suddently started to suffer from batttery drain while in standby : phone remains midly hot, but CPU Spy report 60%+ in Deep Spleed

Just discovered battery drain also occurs while phone OFF

I've charded my phone to 100% while off then unplug it and wait 10-12hours: battery was only 40% :eek:

What could cause battery drain while phone Off ?

Not sure replacing the battery will solve such problem...

I have problems with MS reader in landscape mode on the new stock 6.1 rom. It used to work under the nothrills 6.1 rom, but under this rom the text is all gone from the menu's. I have enabled cleartype in portrait mode, not in landscape mode.

Ideas anyone?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] rush242:
I have had this same issue, with Reader, on all of L26 and now Death v4.1 ROMs. If I do put it into landscape mode, the text of the program is all jumbled together and unreadable.

However, I can read the book itself, albeit without the page numbers at the bottom of the page in landscape.

This happen whether MS Reader is activated or not, and regardless of whether clear type in enabled or not.

Thanks for any thoughts or pointers.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] rush242:
Resets backlight as well

Oddly enough, once I have installed MS Reader, again, on both L26 ROMs and Death ROMs, it changes something in the registry. When I set the backlight for 1 minute when on battery power, after I install MS Reader, that is changed to 10 seconds. If I change it back to 1 min, it resets to 10 seconds after every soft reset.

Hmmmm. Thoughts?

All characters are squeezed, and with Microsoft Reader the CLEARTYPE feature cannot be disabled. :mad:

Maybe no one at Microsoft has never tested such incredible :rolleyes: mix of features?

[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] cdaly1970:
Every since accepting and updating my Moto G6 (US Retail) to 9.0 (PPS29.118-11-1), it has been laggy. The lags seem to happen mostly when there is some type of I/O operation (like opening an app), or when a background app is doing something on the network - email getting delivered, etc. I've rebooted to recovery, and wiped the cache, but now I am considering doing a factory reset. Anyone else experiencing this? Anyone got any ideas that don't involve me reloading all my apps and data?

Thanks in advance.

-Chris
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] blueberryapple:
yeah, i'm also getting some lagginess. it's mostly when i unlock my phone using the fingerprint reader. the transition takes a super long time. i feel it's mostly the animation that's causing the ton of lag. initially after i updated to 9, opening and closing apps would take forever as well. but changing the animation with nova launcher made it a bit snappier; although it's still slower than 8.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] kc6wke:
No lag here

You guys might want to do a clean firmware install, I don't have any lag on this version I didn't take the OTA just flashed the firmware.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] cdaly1970:
I think I may have resolved at least some of the issue. First, I use a SD card to hold some pictures, and videos, and other data (no apps). I reformated the card from android, and this resolved about 80% of my lag issues. Not sure if there is some kind of disk polling that is done, but with the clean format on the SD card, things most run smoothly now. The other area I'm still seeing a little lag is when scrolling over something in apps like google news where it is trying to pull a video or large image file and there seems to be some delay in the network. At this point, I think the issue is in my wifi network, not my phone (although I'm still no ruling it out). But at least it is better.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] cdaly1970:
Dead on. While I was able to make my G6 better, it was still laggy at times. Yesterday, I bite the bullet, backed up my data, and did a clean flash of the current firmware. Now the phone is smooth as glass. Good call.

Thanks,

-Chris
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] Sarmatios:
Noticed the same thing. Reflashed for some other reason and instantly saw the lag that had been getting more and more noticeable disapear.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] Nightwing-1:
What do you mean by 'reflashing'? Is that the same as 'restore to factory settings?'

I've read a thread on the Motorola forum where users have done that, with no noticeable results.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] cdaly1970:
No, I literally reflashed the ROM.

I downloaded the current official ROM from here:

https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/ali/official/RETUS/

(note the link is for the US Retail channel distribution, if your phone is not RETUS channel, find the matching ROM for the channel your phone is.)

Once downloaded, I used the RSD lite app to flash the phone.

http://download.canadiancontent.net/RSDLite.html

You can google exact directions to use the tool, but basically, you reboot your phone to the bootloader, start RSD Lite, connect the USB cable (I had to use the factory cable on a USB 2.0 port to make this work), select the ROM file, and press Start.

Note: This will wipe your phone! So make a backup of your data.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] Nightwing-1:
I'm not familiar with flashing ROMs etc. And I don't want to mess up my phone any further.

Despite the fact that Motorola insist that there is no problem, I'm hoping their forum will convince them that there is.

Thanks for the help, but I'll keep it as it is. Meanwhile I'll be looking around for a dependable Android One phone.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] Nightwing-1:
I found one thing that helped:

Go in to 'Settings', 'system', 'Motorola privacy'' and uncheck both the slides in the menu. And I disabled the Google feed on my start screen (Swipe access).

The restart your phone.

The phone is a lot less laggy after that.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] blueberryapple:
update! the August security patch update kind of helped with the lock screen lag I was experiencing.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] cdaly1970:
Just did a check on my phone, and there is an update on the RETUS channel. :)

PPS29.118-15-11 / Security patch level: August 1,2019
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] Peabody424:
A few questions about this. Through pure dumb luck, I didn't accept the Pie update, and have turned off automatic system updates in the Developer's options. It gives me a notice of new firmware a few times a day, which I decline, but so far has not updated without my consent. I realize it may do that at any moment regardless of the Developers setting.

So I'm still on Android 8, and would be delighted to stay there. But, if I'm forced to go to 9, would I be able to flash 8 again using the files here? Would that accomplish anything, or would it still insist on going to 9 after I had flashed 8?

The earlier reference to the "current official" rom - does that mean the latest 9 rom?

Why would installing the same v9 rom over again produce any different result from the OTA update to that rom?

Is there any way to turn off the firmware update notices? I've tried lots of things, but they still come.

Just trying to figure out what my options are, and what I should do. There's a 42-page thread on the Lenovo forum about this problem, with no indication that Lenovo/Motorola will lift a finger to fix it, apparently being content to see some unknown number (perhaps all) of the G6's ruined by the update to 9. I called Moto CS, and they blamed Google for the problem. Obviously, I bought the wrong brand of phone. Actually, it's my first smart phone. It seems beginners luck is a myth. At least I know better than to buy a Lenovo computer when Windows 7 becomes dangerous in January.

Anyway, I would appreciate any comments on the G6 thing.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] ici0606:
Hello, is it required to have unlocked bootloader when doing re-flashing the official rom?
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] Peabody424:
I posted this in another related thread:

-------------------------------------------------------

JimmiH on the Lenovo forum has found "Lenovo Moto Smart Assistant", a new utility from Motorola, which is installed on your PC (Win 7 or 10). Included in the utility is a "rescue" function which appears to do the same thing as RSD Lite - resurrect a phone from any software issues. It downloads the correct official rom and reflashes it to the phone. JimmiH will be reporting back over the next few weeks as to whether the rescue has permanently solved his Pie lagginess issues.

The advantage of this LMSA over RSD Lite is that it runs on Windows 10, and presumably works with USB3 ports, while apparently neither was the case with RSD Lite. And of course you don't have to go hunting for the right rom.

----------------------------------------------------------------

My understanding is that this utility does not require unlocking, and it does not root the phone.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] ici0606:
Hello, I tried LMSA for flashing, but it says not supported device, I have model XT1925-4.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] xfrobex:
RSDLite will work on Windows 10, I have been using it, even on the newest Windows 10 version 1909. It will not work on usb 3 ports though. If you have any USB 2 ports available, plug the cable into one of those and it will work.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] ici0606:
Hm I have just USB 3 on my PC, ok will try on some older one.

But is it required to unlock bootloader, when using RSD Lite?

Thanks.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] xfrobex:
No. RSDLite doesn't require unlocked bootloader.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] FrogFan:
Count me among those watching this thread, in particular looking for evidence that LMSA (or RSD Lite) actually eliminates the lag problem for more than a few days. My phone is a bone stock model XT1925-6 running Android 9, PPSS29.118-15-11-2. Lag improved after the October update but returned in about a week.

I appreciate the efforts of this group in trying to resolve this problem.

My sister-in-law recently switched to TMo and ended up with a "free" G7 Power running Android 9. It's very smooth with no lag at all, so Moto apparently knows how to resolve this problem, they're just not helping us with the G6.
[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] ici0606:
Ok I think I will give it a try, thanks.
