[General Questions and Answers] YMaty:
Hey,

i'll go straight to the point.

When I'll lose my phone for example, I can get it's location and acces it via shell using tasker, but all of this is useless when the phone's battery reaches zero.

So I am asking - is it anyhow possible to for example limit CPU to minimum, gpu to minium (using kernel manager) or something and turning everything off just to keep the phone turned on for as long as possible?

I am not asking how to do this in tasker, Il'l do that myself. I am just asking how can I do this?

I am rooted on custom rom with Android 9.

I have a fingerprint secured screen lock and i cant pull down quick settings. is there a solution?
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] majaczos:
No, that's intentional by Huawei.
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] BloodBullet:
A way around this is to install custom ROM, like RROS for example. It has the option to enable and disable the notification bar pull-down.

[LG G6 Questions and Answers] ufomessenger:
Hello, I have an LG G6 H870 , bootloader unlocked, stock rom (I think), and I have made the mistake to check software updates, I continued with the update process and when the phone restarts, it restarts in recovery TWRP mode without doing anything (I still get 'Your device software cannot checked for corruption. Lock the bootloader' message, I also tried to update with the locked bootloader but the message still won't disappear or won't let me update), so I guess the update is failing, now I am stuck with an update notification that won't disappear..I wanted to know if I'm able to get rid of the notification or continue with the update.

Version of Android is 8.0

Software version is 'V20i-EUR-XX'

[LG G6 Questions and Answers] LPMatt:
If you have TWRP installed, you can't take OTA updates for stock ROM. Either go back to stock recovery or wait until someone posts a flashable zip of the update.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] kemalcenk:
Hi pixel users,

I want to learn if you are having same thoughts like me. I want to replace my 2017 pixel 2xl but never convinced by any brand that is real update. Google camera( only photo not video) always makes me stick with my device. Pixel 3xl was never upgrade when it first released. Oneplus 7 is still behind when competing the camera. Pixel 4 will be bazel king still and it is not sold in my country Turkey. Galaxy phones are always washed out camera and bad battery with exynos. Huavei having problem with Google so hard to trust. So another year with pixel 2xl probably.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Sibmet:
I've had similar conclusion. Pixel 3 - ugly, Pixel 4 - looks like it's gonna be ugly too. OnePlus phones are the closest competitors in my eyes with their clean software and continued long Android updates, but camera still isn't on Pixel level and water and ingress protection isn't IP certified. Samsung's software isn't for me and their update cycle is terrible.

So Pixel 2 for my wife and Pixel 2 XL for me are still one of best phones out there for us, while it's getting Android updates I won't be changing them soon.

These of course are subjective thoughts.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Cowbell_Guy:
I'm waiting for the OnePlus 7T, should be released around Thanksgiving
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] AndrasLOHF:
Same here. I thought I might have gotten the Pixel 4 but the 2 XL has just been too perfect for me to think about updating.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Hazzay88:
Pixel 4 XL would be the way to go
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] paulyz:
I need good camera, so only pixel, samsung or Huawei. I tired of big phones, so thinking about s10e. People talks what oneUI is good and clean like stock and I like what s10e has flat sreen.

I like, what 1.5 year old pixel is fast like new.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] RogerF81:
I agree with that!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] knightsh:
I wish everyone would stop making tall skinny phones already. I love my 2xl performance wise, but sorely miss my Nexus 6 screen. That was the PERFECT size phone. It's bezels are close in size to the 2xl. If only the guts were easily swapped between the two of them!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] PhoenixPath:
While I love my P2XL and 3aXL, I would get behind an updated Nexus 6 in a heartbeat! Next to the HTC M7, the Nexus 6 was my absolute favorite device. Would love to get that phone's body with upgraded internals (really wish it was possible to update your device to newer hardware without changing the outside).
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] kemalcenk:
I thought to buy one but battery and camera performance is worse then pixel trust me. Size is perfect but has some disadvantages. It ıs also important which region you are from. SD is a lot better than exynos.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] kemalcenk:
I really think that it will be future proof but bezels is making me think and the worst part is the region. It is not sold in my country Turkey. I have a bit hope for this year. They may start selling because 3a and 3axl are great alternatives for Turkish market. I would probably go for pixel 4 if I can.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] paulyz:
Camera will be ok, I had samsung top line and I know Samsung's camera.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] bigmatt503:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elektrinis:
Please move this, if there is a better forum.

The idea is to use a smartphone as stationary door lock display, as it already has a front camera, microphone, speaker, display and buttons/keyboard. I would love to use it as door bell (call to other smarphone on same network) and to auto-unlock the door using face unlock.

A camera flash can be used as interface between smartphone and physical lock.

Does this already exist?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] truonglong88:
Some points you should concern:

- You can use tablets instead of a final phone because of the price. Look for Android tablet here: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Cheapest-7-inch-Q88-quad-core_60837851121.html

- The face recognition is hard to build or expensive to buy

- The face recognition is not accurate that might create new security concern.

Btw, the idea is good, keep investigating. Cheer!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elektrinis:
I agree, face recognition may be hard to build and probably expensive to buy. I am thinking about using the built-in face unlock. This would need:

* An app that can operate on lock screen and show a CALL button.

* Do a video call while still on lock screen

* Switch on camera flash if button is pressed on receiver's phone screen or if face recognition unlocks the phone/tablet. Fce recognition should be always active, so door would unlock even before I touch it.

Also, if face unlock API is accessible, that would be easier, perhaps.

I fully understand this may be a security issue, so it would be used only as secondary or daily means of private entrance, etc. There are some cheap phones now with IR recognition...
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] Akiazek:
I am a German citizen living in Japan.

Today I have received a Google Pixel 3a (lock free, model G020H) that I ordered directly from the Japanese Google store.

When inserting my Japanese SIM card I got a message saying "SIM card isn't supported Ask SoftBank if this device can be unlocked". When I inserted my German SIM card I got the same message. The mobile network options are all greyed out/disabled. The phones software is up to date as far as I can tell (Security patch level August 1, 2019 and no available updates in the Google play store).

Either SIM card works fine in both my lock free Galaxy S8(European version) and my wife's lock free iPhone 7 (Japanese version). I have used the German SIM card as well as local SIM cards with the Galaxy S8 in Europe, USA, Australia and various Asian countries and never encountered any problem.

SoftBank(formerly Vodafone Japan) is a Japanese cell phone carrier like Verizon in the USA or Vodafone in Europe. As the message suggested I went to a local SoftBank store and was told that I either have to get a SoftBank contract or, if I want to use the Pixel 3a with any other carrier, have to register my personal information with SoftBank and pay ¥3000 (~28$ | 25€) to unlock the phone.

There was no mention of SoftBank - or any other carrier for that matter - and no mention of necessary registration with third parties and/or additional fees that have to be paid in order to be able to use the phone as advertised (lock free) during the ordering process.

I'll try to get in touch with the Google support tomorrow to make sure that this is not somehow a big misunderstanding or something.

Perhaps someone else had a similar experience or has an explanation? Because I am totally baffled.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] Akiazek:
day 2

The support was very polite but sadly not very helpful.

According to the Google tracking system I haven't received the phone yet even though the parcel tracking system from the company that delivered it shows it as delivered.

They didn't know the IMEI of the phone they sent to me or really anything related to my account/order other than the country my google play store is registered to. The answers to all of my questions were something along the lines of sorry, we don't know and have to confirm this. They promised to get back to me by phone or e-mail. Hasn't happened today.

After doing some searching I found other Japanese customers who had a similar experience. I am not allowed to post links yet but if you search for "Google Pixel 3a SIMフリー 『SIMフリーなのにロックが掛かっている』 のクチコミ掲示板" you should find a forum thread.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] Akiazek:
day 3

Today I got a call from a California phone number (around midnight California time), it was the same lady I spoke to yesterday. Apparently Google is routing calls from Japan to the USA and then back to Japan.

This time she was able to see the sim lock in their system and unlock it. A message saying " Carrier lock removed The device can now be used on any network" popped up and the phone had a signal. She said I'll get a ¥1500 coupon code for the Play store by mail and ended the call.

I can't really complain about the support other than the very strict business process flow that they apparently have to follow. After double checking the package I noticed that the senders address was written down as Singapore even though it was shipped from Hong Kong. And since the support didn't know which phone was shipped to me, I assume Googles Asia Pacific logistics/inventory management is a bit wonky?

The phone itself is great so far btw, especially the battery life. I haven't charged it since I received it with something around 80% which is now down to 40% with 4h SoT of which ~3h were setting it up, restoring data and so on. Sadly Google dropped eSIM support from the Japanese model in favor of FeliCa.
[Android Head-Units] braddman:
Hello, I have a PX6 Avin device and I just installed their update to fix all the other dreadful problems, and bam, no longer am able to use the Play Store. It says NOT CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET. I tried resetting the date and time to manual, still does not work. I have not tried tethering my hotspot to it but no WIFI works on play store or gmail. Everything else works with Wifi. And if you try to browse to a secure site it says cannot connect securely. What can I do to fix this? I was sure the date and time would fix but it did not.
[Android Head-Units] Fgarcor:
I would try either force stopping and clearing the cache from play store, or even the data! Watch out, you may have to give your credentials again.

Or in worst case, factory reset the unit and start configuring everything from scratch.
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] Cris574:
Hello everyone i am in desparate need of some guidance where i unfortunately Hard bricked my Mi9t while trying to flash the new Mokee Rom.

Where i think i went wrong was wiping the system option in twrp. After reboot i was stuck on flashboot and unable to get back into twrp recovery.

I then proceeded to flashboot twrp, also used multiple versions of twrp, again to hopefully be able to get into twrp recovery with no prevail.

Also tried to fastboot via Miflash tool with all latest fastboot roms available currently but kept getting a anti-rollback error.

So then i searched a way to install recovery or stock rom manually via flashboot commands. This caused me to end up where im at, no fastboot, no recovery, no logo at all. I connect the usb and the phone wont turn on at all, just a dead phone. Power button completely unresponsive now, Vol-Up/Vol-Down + Power and nothing.

I worked on it for countless hours trying to simply get into fastboot now with huge anxiety thinking i killed my phone.

I left my phone to charge all night and woke up this morning trying to get into fastboot again and nothing again.

Can someone please lead me in the right direction???

Everywhere i look the info seems to be outdated. At this point i am willing to send it in for repairs but i live in Indiana, US and there isnt a Xiaomi Service location anywhere in site.
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] fabsen:
Sad story. What did you do in fastboot? If you can't flash a certain twrp version you would have to do:

1. fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img (in twrp archives)

2. fastboot erase recovery

3. fastboot flash recovery your-twrp.img

Concerning AntiRollBack:

You can bypass ARB in miflashtool, set the number of your new rom higher or edit the batch/shell-files manually. The first few lines are ARB and device-check.

I know the info comes too late, but maybe someone reads this before trying things the way you did. There have to be some EDL-pins inside the phone to reflash fastboot but you would have to open your phone. My opinion/solution: Cry and send in.

Anyway: Can you tell us what you did to wipe fastboot?
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] Cris574:
When i 1st attempted to recover twrp i used TWRP 3.1.1-2 fixed from 4PDA. Ran the .exe file and the prompt said both fires installed successfully, but when i did a reboot it wouldnt go into twrp anymore, just stuck in logo so i would end up back in bootloader.

ttp://en.miui.com/thread-942449-1-1.html

This is exactly the instructions i tried to use before i lost fastboot.

At one point while entering the commands, it froze then my phone completely died and could never make it do anything else.
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] fabsen:
Why the hell did you use an outdated tutorial for an other phone? A few of the commands also wouldn't work because there are only some of these partitions. But if you did it with the right firmware it shouldn't brick anyway. So maybe you were stuck at boot flash. Else you still would be able to boot into fastboot.#

I feel sorry for you bro but it looks like you were searching for a possiblity to brick your phone :D
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] Cris574:
I kno bro i felt like shyt believe me. Literally all day in panic and anxiety that i just wasnt thinking straight and using any kind of guide i can find and ended up here.

Made some progress today tho.

Since my device manager or MiFlash tool wasnt recognizing my device even when i installed Qualcom drivers and pushing all sorts of buttons lol,

I have now opened her up for some surgery and using the Test-Point EDL method.

https://i.postimg.cc/HWJGWHRw/test-point-redmi-k20-mi-9t.png

While USB connected and shorted these 2 pins my computer finally recognized my device in MiFlash Tool and Device Manager again as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3)!!! :D:D:D

Now the next problem is the MiFlash tool. I tried to flash rom and status states cannot receive hello packet. From what i understand, i need an authorized account. :(

Only thing i could find to bypass this was this but currently not yet working. - https://xdaforums.com/mi-8/how-to/unbrick-mi8-edl-authorized-account-t3896677

What device do you have? EEA/Global/CN? And what flashfiles did you use? I'm asking this because the only way I know to brick your device is to flash global/eea-rom on chinese device and lock the bootloader.
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] Waidowai:
Hey,

I'm in a similar boat but I still have fastboot.

I can flash everything I wan't. But flashing a recovery doesn't do anything.

I can not boot into the recovery.

When I boot into the recovery i'm at the bootloop screen.

My PC does recocgnize it as recovery mode tho.

Anyways is there a way to get out of this mess? I wanted to try to flash with miflash over fastboot.img but I can't find any .img to flash.

All I can find are the .zips for twrp.

I didn't want to flash cfw tho. I got into the mess because there was an update today for stock rom and I flashed it with twrp. Because OTA didn't work.

/edit

I found the fastboot files.

But how do I bypass the antirollback error
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] fabsen:
https://mifirm.net/model/davinci.ttt

to bypass the ARB you can edit the batch/shell files. the first few lines are device-check and ARB. you can also use xiaomitool and select it there.

Edit: I had the same problem with a twrp version I had installed. After switching to russian version I couldn't downgrade twrp. Just try one of the other 2 versions available.
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] Waidowai:
I've had the russian version of twrp that didn't allow backups.

I know tried all the other version as well.

What happens is it stays in mi.com unblocked screen and my pc will recognize that it's in recovery but twrp never opens.

Like I said the normal stock recovery is flashable but all other twrp versions don't work for some reason.

I've tried all 3.

I know where the lines are but idk what to write in there.

I tried to just delete the lines and then I've got a different error.

Also when changing the version number it says success it actually flashes for 0 seconds and nothing happens.
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] fabsen:
The russian version I've installed allows backups, tried allready.

You can simply remove the lines, just care you dodn't left something or delete too much. Use xiaomitool v2, it'll bypass the lines.
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] Waidowai:
If i download the xiamitool v2 and choose my device is bricked it says feature is not available yet.

/edit

If I choose mod the phone it says my phone serial and all the 3 other things are unknown.

if I select my phone my phone reboots and says waiting for debugging mode....

Then if I delete the ARB lines and try to flash via MiFlash it says error error no such file found :(

Can someone pls give me some clearer instructions.
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] Waidowai:
Ok I somehow fixed it.

I flashed everything manually like the times before twrp existested.

Now I don't have the OS running but a running twrp.

I could flash xiaomi eu now and be done with it. But I actually wanted to use stock rom and not a costume rom right now because I wanted to switch to a costume rom when a good official comes out whenever that is.

Although flashing the stock rom got me in this mess in the first place. I never had this problem with flashing costume roms.

Anyhow I know this might not be the place to ask but are xiaomi eu and stock actually that different? Also are there any downsides in using it over stock?

My experience on most phones was that early costume roms usually didn't work with all features etc.

/edit

alright who gives a dang I just flashed the eu rom to be safe with updates..

anyhow is it normal that my devices says Redmi by Xiaomi now?

Prior on my stock rom it said MI by mi.com or something
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] fabsen:
Basically it's (xiaomi.eu) debloated and optimized but sadly based on chinese official rom. That means no widevine L1.

In my opinion the best rom is EEA (because of "spy restrictions"), debloated with ADBTools with same optimizations which come with mi-globe rombuilder (gpsset, preinstalled magisk, adaway, removed apps). Sadly mi-globe is based on xiaomi.eu which is based on chinese official.
