[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] djct_watt:
Haha. Thanks for the laugh guys. I have other things I could fiddle with at work but that could lead to trouble.

In all seriousness, is there anyway to turn this function off? It didn't exist on older Notes (had a Note 2, 4, then a regular S9+, now back to a Note again).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] moSess:
Oddly enough, my note doesn't do that. Tapping the pen button merely opens/toggles the lockscreen note functionality on and off.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] rcobourn:
I thought the same at first, but after a few cycles it started working. It only happens if there is a media app running, so it didn't happen for me until I launched my podcast player. Even then I don't think it worked the first few times I tried.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] djct_watt:
That makes sense and I can't believe I didn't think of that. Workaround: kill the media player (until Samsung enables a way to turn it off completely).

Thanks for the help!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] ultramag69:
Can't you go to settings>S pen>air actions and turn off media?

Haven't tried but pretty sure it turns off the S Pen for all media... You can also turn off for camera too...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] winol:
Well, I had the 3,4,5,7 and 8, and in any of them was not a way to disable the button
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] djct_watt:
Yeah, it's the first thing I tried. It will Disable pen actions (for media) from the home screen, but for some dumb reason will still allow action from the lock screen (if a media player is open)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] djct_watt:
That makes sense. Disabling the button would be excessive... But I would imagine that some people may genuinely want to disable media control altogether (from the s pen).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] pcriz:
The media controls are handled through Bluetooth.

Op needs to disable Bluetooth pen functions (air Actions). Not the button.

S-Pen

Air Actions

Hit the toggle to turn it off.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] torickray:
That's weird. I can't reproduce the problem you have after disabled air action on media.

Are you using Samsung Music for music?

Maybe disable music control on lockscreen might help
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Guides, News, & Discussion] mumal:
Hello

I have a doubt. I am going to buy an xz2c and I want to root. I don't want the black camera. Then my doubts:

1.- To unlock bootloader, do I do it from oreo or from P?

2.- If I buy it already updated to P, then I will have to upgrade to oreo for root with xperifix?

3.- Is it better to buy mobile in Oreo or does it matter? after P upgrade to Oreo and root without problems?

I want to have root and I don't mind staying in oreo or in P, and I want to know what the recommendation is for not having a black camera and the least risks.

Unlock from oreo or P?

Root from oreo or P?

Better to buy oreo or does it matter P and then upgrade to oreo for unlocking?

Thanks and sorry for my English
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Guides, News, & Discussion] mumal:
Please
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Guides, News, & Discussion] UncannyValley:
Hi, I wonder the same. Some post I have read indicate the described problem, but it is unclear if this still applies.

I would love to root, but a broken camera would be a no-go for me.

Can anyone shed some light, please?

Regards UV

P.S: doubt -> question
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Guides, News, & Discussion] old.splatterhand:
Simple and easy:

Unlock on oreo -> Preview is black, you need xperifix to get it back working.

Unlock on pie (if i remember right, not the first 2 or 3 pie versions) -> Preview is fine, you don't need to fix it.

Getting root is the same on oreo or pie: flash magisk 18.1 from twrp recovery and install Magisk Manager in Android Os.

If you buy it with oreo or pie does not matter. You can flash up and down (also with locked bootloader) with newflasher as long as you have the firmware files.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Guides, News, & Discussion] mumal:
So, unlocking on pie, with first or last firmware?

[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Guides, News, & Discussion] old.splatterhand:
I would say, better last than first. But, as i said, it also depends on which firmware is available.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] whiteroom77:
I have a T-Mob MDA Var 3. When i make a call on battery power the backlight doesn't stay on. annoyingly, the only way to turn it on during a call is to hit the power button.

This seems silly as I might want to place someone on hold or start a conference, etc. I have set the backlight defaults not to turn off on external or battery power.

Does anyone know how how I can stop the backlight turning off during calls? :confused:

Hi all,

Everything was going fine and dandy until the past two days. I'm facing Android system drain which is the second highest draining app after the screen. I tried wiping cache and even removed background refresh on all non-essential except for google play services. The phone isn't rooted yet..can someone please help me on how to get rid of this drain!
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] helmuth:
Interesting! I have a not rooted Xiaomi Mi 9T and face exactly the same problem. The drain appeared out of the blue and I can fix it for some time by rebooting the phone.

It wouldn't surprise me if some automatically updated Google Service might be the culprit because this is the most common denominator for our phones. If this should actually be true it look we just have to wait for another update...

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] rubberchickenmob:
Hi Tech Gurus,

I'm not the most well verse with tech. Looking for some guidance.

I'm in the market for an external android box for my car. There are 2 options I'm choosing from with the following hardware:

1. Grom VL2: Rockchip 3288 - Quad Core Arm Cortex A17 1.8GHz / Mali-T760 MP4 GPU

2. Lsailt: Allwinner T7 - Hexa Core Arm Cortex A7 1.2GHz / Mali-400 MP4 GPU

Which of these have better performance? 4 big cores vs 6 small cores for a head unit powered by car?

Thanks,

Tech Noob
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] nic2k:
If you're looking at the processor alone the RK3288 is 50% faster for 33% less cores and it has many improvements over the T7 design. But the speed of the system is very much affected by the amount of memory (RAM). No matter which HU you go with get one that has at least 2GB of RAM.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] rubberchickenmob:
Both has 3gb of RAM. Thanks for the input. The T7 I believe was released in 2018 while the RK3288 was released in 2014. I thought newer might be better but thanks for confirming that the RK3288 should perform better.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] ozone777:
I recently upgraded my AT&T Note 8 to Android 9 (Pie).

All has been good until a few days ago my phone lost its Bluetooth connection to my car.

I attempted to pair the two together again, several times, but failed. The point of failure was when the car asked for verification of the Bluetooth passcode which never showed up on the phone.

The car can see the phone, and the phone can see the car. But the passcode never shows up on the phone.

So I tried pairing with my desktop computer, which also requires a passcode, and it fails there in just the same way as the car...no passcode shows on the phone.

I have no problem pairing devices that don't ask for passcodes, like BT headphones and speakers.

To remedy the issue, I have tried clearing BT cache/data, and I even tried clearing the phones cache partition...no good.

My current firmware version is N950USQS6DSG6. Do you think upgrading to N950USQU6DSH3 will fix the issue? Or is there some simple setting that I am missing? Perhaps a developer setting?

Thanks for any help you can give.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Dries.k:
When I plugged in the usb cable yesterday morning to my car, android auto did not start. When I came back from work I tried to plug my phone into my computer, but the phone did not show up. Normally you get a notification where you can choose between charging only, file transfer,.... but I don't get this notification.

I already tried to use another pc, another usb cable, tried to do a factory reset, but all with no success. I don't think it is a driver issue, because last week everything was working fine and also when I plug in my OnePlus 5 I immediately get that notification to choose between charging only, file transfer,...

[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jhofseth:
You can set default USB behavior in Developer Options (i.e., which become accessible if you tap About Phone's --> Build Number a bunch of times). If all troubleshooting alternatives become exhausted, I would suggest backing up any important files to an external drive, and flashing a different ROM or possibly using MSM tool to re-flash stock. MSM tool might be more thorough than some other options, so that's what I would do if nothing else solved the issue.

[About XDA developers] l3v5y:
The Siemens was made by HTC (same as some HP devices, and the X1) so it has very similar IPL/SPL code.

The Atom was because there was some confusion over who was making it, but, that is the exception, not the rule.
[About XDA developers] spocky12:
With all the respect I have for "xda" developers community, what's the purpose of refusing a new forum section based on the brand when you're a forum that grew up enough to become a reference in ppc developement ? Sentences like "Is it HTC? No? Then I don't see that happening." are either trolling (if that's the case, well done ;) ), or belong to another time in another place. To me it sounds a little like "hey you lg niggas, we accept you in our htc bus, but just stand in the back".

I thought we were here to share knowledge to serve the whole ppc community. If I was an admin, I would consider making sections when enough requests (but, I'm not admin and moreover, may be there are not enough now, I can't say) (well, to be honest, I pretty agree that there's not so much ks20 threads).

What I know is that ks20 hardware is pretty similar to kaiser's one (up to the point that older versions of kaiser's android booted on ks20), that with a lot of work we finally managed to build tools to extract rom files (I don't speak about batch files, but something similar to nbinfo/nbsplit/nbmerge), that enabled us to build a kitchen, for a part thanks to xda community, and that it would serve ks20 community for more simplicity to regroup them.

If you think that there's not enough demand to do it, I've got absolutely no problem with that and I totally understand it, but please don't use htc arguments or else you'll see that one day, the brand-segregated minority will revolt, compose a call pointing their phone towards htc users and turn them all out into pop-corn :p
[About XDA developers] JimmyMcGee:
No I'm not a Troll, I moved out from under my bridge long ago. :p

I'm reiterating what I've seen spoken by the mod numerous times.

The simple fact is not that we hate or a "phonecist" towards LG. Its a matter of Drawing a line in the sand to help with Administration, Server Load and Bandwidth Usage Issues.

If we start adding none HTC phones, we will have a harder time keeping the noobs calm and the spammers away. It will require and even bigger server with even more bandwidth and that cost more money.

We all know the founders really aren't making money of this venture so since its their bank accounts that have to cover the costs if Donation, Store and Ad revenue don't. So they can say only HTC device if they please.

So don't play the "race card." You look silly. If The founders don't want to add non HTC devices they don't have to, and any amount of wishing and asking and complaining will not change that.

But I bet you could find/make a place like XDA for LG or Samsung.
[About XDA developers] spocky12:
I totally understand your point and don't blame the admins, they do what they want with their forums. It's just that when you start adding exceptions, you open a breach and then it's difficult to explain why you do this and not that.

I hope my post was not taken seriously (I think I've put enough smileys to show it was not written that way).

As to make/join another forum, problem here with ks20 is that it's the only Windows Mobile device from lg, so in a way, we're far closer to xda community than classic lg mobile community. After all, we're just lost orphans begging for a place in this world :p
[About XDA developers] JimmyMcGee:
Right Which is why they don't allow any exceptions. ;)

I wasn't singling you out, just posting same reasons why you won't see LG devices here soon, or Samsung for that matter.

A forum starts with one person who is enthusiastic about their phone. How do you think this forum got started? Twenty thousand people all got together and decided to make a forum that grew into 2 million ? No it started with I'm sure, one enterprising knowledgeable person and a garage server.

Short version ? Servers are cheap, bandwidth comes from donations, if you think that there are so many interested people, then have at it. I don't think that trying to ( bully ? ) your way into an avowed HTC forum is the way. Others have done it themselves.
