[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] boJob:
Hello,

I have an imported note 9 from the UAE, which comes with Samsung pay AE. Since I am in the EU however I can't add my debbit card to it.

My question is, is there a way to add my maestro card to samsung pay AE, or will I have to find an other work around?

Kind regards
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] grtmoby:
Unfortunately there is no way.

The only one if available would be Google pay

And flashing a European rom, would that work and if so, how should I go about it?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] iceepyon:
If you install a EU OS onto your device, you should be able to use Samsung Pay with a EU Credit/Debit Card. However you may need to reformat the partition of the internal storage as the UAE variants of Samsung devices are formatted different from other devices. You can get the OS from Sammobile.com and use Samsung Odin to install it onto your device.

After taking the update my phone rebooted and a screen came up saying my OS was corrupted. I hit "try again" and the phone rebooted. The update broke my wifi connection... First it dropped out every 10 seconds. After I reset my router it got better but still drops out a few times an hour. I am unable to fix it. Wish I could go back to android 9 without resetting the phone.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] EeZeEpEe:
Sounds like you might need to try a factory reset. No "OS was corrupted" message here and my WiFi has been fine.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] panflute:
Well resetting my pixel 2xl means days of work so that is my last option. I had no problems with 9.

Here is one of my 9 screens. Every time I upload or download anything, including this room, my wifi drops in and out.

After playing with this all day I've determined that the wifi sensor itself has weakened. Some people are reporting the sensors in the phone do not work after the update.

Excuse me, you wrote above that you were downgrading to Pie. Did you upgrade again to 10 after that and everything's fine now?

I have actually downgraded to 9 until wifi problems get solved with a fix or something. After updating to 10, wifi kept disconecting from time to time.

---------- Post added at 08:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:54 AM ----------

@EeZeEpEe

I already did a factory reset. In fact, the problems with wifi begins as soon as, after factory resetting, you try to configure your "new" phone trying to connect to wifi. It does connect but saying "connected with no internet access".

I took some screenshots and sent them to Google support and they offered me to replace the phone.

What I have done so far is to downgrade to Pie. The wifi problems have disappeared, so it is clearly a software problem. Many others have reported exactly the same in some forums.

I will wait until Google comes with a fix for this.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] xantyago11:
Nobody here with wifi problems after Android 10 update?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] xantyago11:
Here goes a possible (and temporary) solution, until Google solves this problem.

After many tests, I have come to a conclusion: Android 10 on Pixel 2 XL (at least on mine) has made the phone have a really poor coverage for the 5Ghz wifi band. When connected to that band, as soon as I get a little bit far from the router, I receive the "Connected with no internet" and after a while my phone disconnects and inmediately tries to connect again in an endless loop.

The good news is that I've been able to get a stable connection... but only on the 2,4Ghz. For this, I've had to make some changes both in the router and in the phone:

- In my router (O2/Telefonica in Spain, Mitrastar router) on the 5Ghz band configuration I had to remove the Guest/Virtual Access Point, which was pointing to the 2,4Ghz band. I suppose other routers will have a similar configuration.

- In my phone I made sure that I connected only to the 2,4Ghz band (you should see two wifi networks, one with PLUS or something like that and one without the PLUS: this is the one you have to select).

- Once connected, make sure you select "use device MAC" instead of "use arbitrary MAC" under connection configuration. The second is default on Android 10 and can make some routers go crazy because they think you are a hacker or something and so they block your connection.

After that, you should have an absolutely stable connection as you used to on Android 9 Pie, only that you are using the 2,4Ghz and not your fast 5Ghz connection. Obviosly this is a temporary solution until Google solves this. But at the moment I don't really need that extra speed on my phone, so I can live with that.

What is abolutely clear is that this an Android 10 bug and it only happens with certain Pixel phones like Pixel 2 XL. Mi wife's 3a XL has no problem at all after the update.

Hope this helps.

I have actually noticed the same exact issues going on with my Pixel 2 XL on Android 10. IHow do I change so that using my device's MAC address is the default option?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] astaineakash:
I have actually noticed this issues going on with my Pixel 2 XL on Android 10. In android 9 wifi connectivity was really really good. i have been using this phone since the launch without any issue but recently after updating to android 10 i have seen that the wifi connection is really really poor. Sometimes even disconnect automatically & sometime while connected to the wifi it shows no internet connection. I guess this is a software problem!!! I hope google fix this ..
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] xantyago11:
Only on the 5Gz band. 2,4Ghz band remains stable. Just make sure you connect to that band.

---------- Post added at 07:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:49 AM ----------

You can try one more thing. On the 5Ghz configuration of your router, try to change the channel setting to a fixed channel instead of the predetermined Auto (I have set mine to 100(DFS)) and connect again from your Pixel. It will probably say "Connected, no internet" for a while, but just wait for a minute till it gets connected to the Internet and see if it stays stable
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] sgorveatt:
Just so you don't feel alone. I also started have wifi issues immediately after upgrading to Android 10
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Skippy_TN:
I've been having the same wifi problem that others have mentioned since the Android 10 update. However, it is also affecting my cellular and data signals, albeit to a lesser degree. Google tech support had me do diagnostics (rebooting in safe mode) and determined that I do indeed have a problem. However they want me to go through Verizon to try and get a replacement phone. They said if Verizon won't replace it, then they will. I really don't want to trade in my practically new phone on a refurbished model, so I'm going to live with this for a while longer and see if Google will release a new update to fix this bug.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] xgen69:
I just got off the phone with Google Fi support about my Pixel 2XL and its' wifi issues are the same. I downloaded 10 like the first or second day it was available and began having issues with wifi immediately. Pictures on websites would not load and the pages load ten times slower. They recommended to send feedback and the steps I have taken to attempt a resolution but, I still have the same problem. I did a factory reset and still no fix for it. They first wanted to possibly send me a new replacement but, I was adamant that it was the software and not hardware since the wifi was perfect right before I updated to Android 10. Feedback will be sent so they can provide it in there November Security Update.(crossing fingers)
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] cliff6056:
Totally concur with this thread, started as soon as I updated to A10B5. 5G connects, shows no bars, and "no internet connection". Using my old Nexus 6 at the same spot, 2 or 3 bars, internet connection right away. Just wondering if anyone that is unlocked has tried flashing the last 'Pie" radio file and results?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] lambdaman:
I too have connectivity issues on a pixel 2 XL even after a factory reset. I'm using a dual band AT&T Gateway or a Asus dual band router. I haven't tried turning off the same named 5 gigahertz band to see if it makes a difference, after reading here.

I havent had any issues with Wifi that i know of. But im having charging issues and sound issues
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] iMathiB:
I'm having a similar issue with the normal Pixel 2 and using Google WiFi mesh system.

My pixel 2 refuses to connect to the 5Ghz network at my place whereas at my parents place (also using Google WiFi) it connects flawlessly to the 5Ghz one.

My pixel 3 XL is also connecting without any problems.

I used the app WiFi analyzer on my pixel 3XL and noticed that my Google WiFi is using the 5126 frequency.

If I use the same app on my pixel 2 it isn't even going that far.

At my parents place the frequency used is way lower.

Around 5000'ish
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] mr2620:
I'm having the same issues with WiFi. I finally disabled the 5 GHz signal from my router so I'm now only using the 2.4 GHz signal. This made my WiFi so much better at home. There is a lengthy thread about this issue in the Pixel Support forums, but it doesn't seem like anyone from Google has stopped by there to assist or gather info.

You all are intelligent as heck- I am a newbie. And learning.

I am trying to free up some RAM in my TC. I am trying to, or wish to, have my Outlook inbox, calendar, and contacts download into my phone. I am getting a memory full message. And I see no method that I can see to move programs over to storage cards..

Is there a way to move some of my programs over to a larger storage card? And what is that process please....?!

Thank you all. This is my first HTC...and not real up to speed.....:confused:
[Touch Cruise General] DennisMoore:
Your Inbox might not fit into built-in memory.

There is a configuration option for outlook (and mail in general) to save Attachments to the Storage-Card.

This should free up the memory enough.

My tablet has been blocked by the my xperia service which does not accept data for my gmail account. Before restoring the tablet to factory settings, I would like to fix one issue because nowhere in Google I could not find the answer.

Namely, before performing this operation is it possible to back up data to the tablet when it is locked? I mainly ask in the context of games saves, documents I have, applications for which I have saved account data (created in these applications), as well as in the context of saved Wi-Fi networks

After every reboot this toast notification shows up. And it is annoying me..

Is there anyway to fix it?

Is it still required to deodex the ROM to install edxposed on stock Android one?

Because I can't find information that are up to date
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] blazessdd:
it works!

It's not needed to deodex the ROM anymore just flash the magisk modules in this order:

Riru core

Edxposed

Reboot

Also gravit box [p] works not everything but still

I admit I was a little nervous but this information is missing and needed to be tested, I'm on August security patch 10.0.12

Hello,

I have an old phone Sony Xperia E that i want to get files out of for a long time now.

The touch screen stopped working so i tried some solutions i found on the internet, but nothing helped.

Phone is locked, no usb debugging enabled, but it's rooted.

I tried with OTG, but it's most likely not compatible cause it didn't read anything.

I hope there is a solution to resolve this problem.

Thanks in advance.

There seems to be zero magnets on this thing, so it slides around when I close it.

I felt same way, its clicks securely in place but then moves around when holding it while walking. It feels much weaker magnet than Tab S3. S Pen falls off Tab S6, they should have used stronger magnets. The S Pen entire body should hold magnets
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Accessories] techops:
Feels solid to me. Doesn't move like this at all. Probably it is good idea to check your unit, maybe it's a manufacturing defect.

I can't get that working for the samsung keyboard, but i get suggestions with swiftkey.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Accessories] Fear Knot:
I agree, the keyboard cover is a disappointment. I was looking forward to the trackpad on the new case, but am disappointed in the "floppyness". My tab S3 and keyboard were much more functional to use in the hands, on the lap, while on the couch etc. This is impossible to use unless sitting on a table.

---------- Post added at 06:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:18 PM ----------

My other thought was I used to be able to pickup my tab s3 and keyboard case as one solid unit, like a small laptop, and move it, like from one room to another. This is a floppy mess to move around.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Accessories] cdig:
Yeah... I'm thinking ill return this and wait for the tab s7. s4 still is solid imo.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Accessories] ianmacd:
For me, this year's keyboard cover is a significant upgrade over previous years.

The phone can now finally recognise when the cover is opened, and now wakes the device as we've been accustomed to for years with our phones. No previous Tab Sx keyboard cover had this ability.

The way the tablet remains permanently connected to the case is superior to the design of previous years. Previously, one had to connect the tablet to the case pins whenever one wanted to use the keyboard, which made for a lot of wear and tear on those connectors. Now, you plug the tablet in once and leave it there.

The stylus can now be safely stowed inside the case, rather than attached to the edge with a fragile clip that can get caught on things and pulled off. This is so much better than the system that the Tab S3 and S4 had.

The hinged flap at the back makes it possible to use the tablet in a variety of viewing angles, which is flexibility we didn't have before. I don't really like the way that opening the flap exposes the back of the tablet, but at least it's a trade-off for the viewing angle, rather than an outright step backwards.

Either the plastic of this keyboard is softer than that of the Tab S4 or the glass of the Tab S6 is harder than its predecessor's, because the tiny scratches that would appear around the edge of the Tab S4's screen seem to be a thing of the past on this new device.

I loathe touchpads, so I've disabled that, as I do on all the laptops I ever buy. If the touchpad couldn't be disabled, I would have called that a step backwards, but since it's configurable, it's a neutral feature for me and an upgrade for some.

The main thing wrong with this keyboard cover from my point of view is its ludicrous price. The way things are going, one or two years from now the keyboard cover will cost the same as a lower end phone or tablet. As it is, it adds nearly 25% to the price of the Tab S6 in some markets.

The one physical feature I don't like is that the moulding of the stylus storage compartment makes it impossible to lay the device flat on a table. The incline isn't so bad that it's a hindrance, but it takes a little getting used to after years of flat usage.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Accessories] gottahavit:
keyboard icon works fine in dex ode which is what I'm using most of the time with the keyboard case. Gotta say even tho I do wish the case closed more solid, I'm really loving this case. I like the tear off,, leaving the kickstand on which holds pen and acts as a grip. Never even bought one for s4 due to lack of track pad. How anyone works on an ipad without a mouse I have no idea.

Also for me it works fine in my lapt, just like my old Surface Pro.

So far I'm really loving this tab, sitting here playing game in one windw, spotify running in back and reading up on xda.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Accessories] da_ferreira:
My problem has been getting the back to stay connected. The part with the kickstand relies on micro-suction cups to stay in place. I've been through 3 keyboards now - cleaned the back of the Tab, cleaned and dried the micro-suction ring, pressed it firmly in place for many minutes. No matter what I do, I can't get the back to stay on more than an hour at best. At some point without the keyboard itself attached, the Tab just slides off the back. Thankfully so far, it just ended up on my desk - no falls.

The worst part? The normal Book Cover (non-keyboard) connects via a magnet, and it is rock-solid. Comes off easily when I want it to, stays on firmly when I don't want it to. But the keyboard does not have enough room to connect when this cover is on, so I can't use it without switching to the keyboard back.

Why, Samsung, couldn't you use the same magnetic connector on the keyboard?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Accessories] gottahavit:
I dont have the issue but agree completely on the design being a stupid experiment.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Accessories] JonoF:
I had this issue as well. The solution is to enable the "Show the on-screen keyboard" option in the physical keyboard settings. With this enabled the on-screen keyboard always popup when you click in a text box, it will go away as soon as you start typing with the physical keyboard, or remain up if start typing with the on-screen keyboard. I also found that I had to use the Samsung on-screen keyboard to get it to work correctly, G-Board caused some issue. Hope this help.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Accessories] nicholb:
What did you use to clean them? I had the problem until I used an alcohol wipe to clean both the tablet back and the sticky area of the case back. Now there's no way the back is coming off without some prying.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Accessories] wcarlson40:
As described above, the back cover is not magnetic, it's microsuction. The ADVANTAGE of this, is that it's meant to be easily removed if you want to use your tablet naked at times. The disadvantage of this, is that you should push firmly on it before and after opening the kickstand.

However, if you're looking for a more semi-permanent fix, a couple simple 3M strips placed in the rectangular area between the microsuction works great!
