i know right i didn't wanna flash it since we are a week away from the October build but will there even be an october build now?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jcmm11:
Pretty sure there will be. The C3 indicates it's a hotfix release so that shouldn't impact the normal schedule.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Jiggs82:
So....did anyone flash it yet? Lol
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] comediiian:
Got it via OTA toda, 1335 MB on C3.

haven't seen anything different, lol.

Can confirm that this build has fixed the swipe up issue for unlocking not working properly - but still suffering from the screen goes blank when on a call (to ear) and then does not turn on again when viewed unless various buttons pressed!.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Goku80:
Got a new update as well
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jmartin72:
I got it this morning. I have not noticed anything new.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mgp53:
I have that issue, and I'm still on 9.0.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] sliding_billy:
I was chatting with the Pixel team yesterday about something unrelated and was trying to get any info about the C3 update. Instead, I got very evasive runaround about how there is no approved communication. He didn't act like he didn't know what I was talking about but just wanted to change the subject since he wasn't going to say what the "hotfix" was for. I guess this their new strategy after still not disclosing the difference between .19 and .20.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jmartin72:
Yeah, they used to be very up front with what the differences are in the builds. Usually they were carrier specific. If I had to guess, this new update fixed some huge security issue that they needed to fix ASAP before the bad guys could take over our phones.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] sliding_billy:
Just take the OTA like good "sheeple." Don't worry about when it will get there, and of course you'd never need to root and block all of those glorious ads.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] tlama:
I flashes this new release yesterday and I may say it is big...I'm still going deep into what's new but haven't found anything relevant yet.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jimjamyaha:
Is that the issue of swiping, or the proximity sensor info not causing the screen to reactive during a call?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mgp53:
Proximity.. I wish that while on a call, no other involuntary touch action could activated... Until hanging up or pressing a deliberate action.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Ajoli:
Apparently a hotfix for the sensor bug went out 5.5MB for other pixels... (see the stickied sensor bug thread) Makes you wonder if someone made an oopsie in our case?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] zopostyle:
I noticed my phone a little bit colder after this update.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] gettinwicked:
It's a pretty big update! It's the same size as the official Android 10 image. Weird.

Any of the 10 features that we haven't gotten yet in there? Like the customization app or whatever? New AOD clocks? I can't remember what all else we were supposed to get. I don't have time today to check it myself.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] masri1987:
i just flashed it and removed -w , all is fine
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] chaco81:
yup, same here

downloaded it, extracted it and removed -w

copied over boot.img to phone, patched it with Magisk...

copied patched.img to PC

updated using factory image

then flashed patched boot img

Profit!

When charging with pixel stand, my Pixel 3 XL shows "wireless charging" on the ambient screen... J remember it was just "fast charging" before c3 update....

Let me know if I am wrong...
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] CSX321:
It was changed by an earlier update. I think it was after the first Sept. update that mine started saying "Charging wirelessly" even just with a regular Qi charger (I'm using my old Nexus 5 charger).
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] boe323:
Go through your menus, google is totally integrated now, thats the change.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] comediiian:

Is anyone having issues with playstore? updates and installed apps not showing up?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] CSX321:
I had that problem once in the past after an update. It resolved itself after about a day.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] boe323:
Yea, had it before, wasnt expecting it to do this on a google phone though, huawei phones working like a charm.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] sliding_billy:
Installed apps is an easy one to fix. Just install an app that isn't there, and magically they show back up. Certification can take some work (clearing cache and data, removing updates to let it get back to a new version), but it will come back.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] CSX321:
Um, Google may be having a server-side problem, because all of my installed apps and updates disappeared when I checked for updates just now. :eek:
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] boe323:
Glad im not the only one, been messing with it for hours with no joy.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mgp53:
Had to remove last update from Google App. Ok Google would FC when trying to make a call.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] sliding_billy:
It does appear there was something on the Google side yesterday. My 3 XL (which I had installed with the c3 update the other day) was getting updates fine, but my 3 that I installed the c3 update yesterday morning certified but wouldn't get installed apps back or see updates despite every clear, check and uninstall updates I could do. That lasted all day, and then when I woke and checked after midnight they were back but of course certification hasn't returned since I cleared cache data and updates. Between this stuff and the suggested apps (some of which aren't in your library and haven'r been on your phone in a year) lasting almost a week, the Play Store is becoming something of a joke IMO.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] boe323:
opt in for beta, seems fine.

Playstores ok again.

Can someone hold there finger on desktop search bar and toggle the animation toggle to see if they get the animation please.

Can someone advised how to update to the latest OTA if already on Android 10 and rooted?

I am used to the process on 9.0 with twrp.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Homeboy76:
I think you have to flash the stock boot.img to both slots

fastboot flash boot --slot all boot.img

, that should remove root (MM) so you can get the OTA.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] boostedduece:
I followed A/B slot update from here https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/blob/master/docs/tutorials.md

Everything is working fine on QP1A.190711.020.C3

You will need to reflash your kernel if using a custom kernel.

Only using systemless hosts and edge sense modules in magisk, worked fine without even disabling them.

[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] buzzaldrine:
im trying to root mine, i have installed Magisk but it keeps spinning looking for updates. is this version rootable. or do i need to downgrade and root before?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] spotmark:
Time for what's getting to be that age old question. Are you using the Canary channel Magisk?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] buzzaldrine:
sorry for the disturbance. its taken care.

thanks for reaching out. ill remember to read a lot more before posting on here.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] spotmark:
I hope you don't think I was being flippant. It just seems that every time someone can't attain root, that's the problem.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] buzzaldrine:
Rooting wasnt the problem. Magisk Canary was. you need to download it straight from the XDA forum where its updated. Otherwise if you use HighOnAndroid link you dont have the updated one.

that was my problem. but once i had the correct Magisk Canary it was a simple as 1,2,3.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] boe323:
The theme app is available but there's still something missing as it can't apply the theme, so I think there's the main engine that's not available at present, looks neat I really hope we get theming.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] zetsumeikuro:
The funny thing is that update showed up for me as 2.4 MB but wouldn't download at all. Had to end up sideloading via adb reeeeeeee.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] comediiian:
Of course, the themes can be saved and applied.

Either with a Magisk module or an ADB command, so that the themes are also saved.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] boe323:
I'm referring to not rooting though. This is the only phone I've had with no need for root, apart from theming, it's got what I need
[Google Pixel 3 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] cmh714:

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Modify_inc:
I have a Verizon N910V running LOS 16 and have tested most builds between 8/4/19 to 9/17/19.

When I first install LOS 16 of any build, mms works fine. I can send and receive pictures, etc. But after a few days, just out of the blue, I get this error under my notification bar: "Your carrier has a temporary MMS problem. Tap to retry MMS download"

I use Textra, but I have tried the default messaging app, which gives the same error. What ever causes this, it seems permanent as there seems to be no way to fix it. Any mms I try to send always fails. Usually mobile data and mms are linked to some degree, so if data is working, then mms should be, yet my mobile data still continues to work, just mms fails. Looking at my APN settings, nothing has changed, and anybody that knows anything about Verizon phones knows the APN fields on this model can not ever be changed by the user. Since the error message states the issue is with my carrier, which is Straight Talk, I contacted them. I got transferred to level 2 support and even then, they say everything looks fine, there's nothing else they can do, saying it must be my phone.

So what else can I try, other than just reflashing, which seems to be only a temporary fix. How should I test or try to log this change? What services or apps on a phone could potentially disrupt mms like this? I really don't know where to start.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] ItsDon:
I bought a 710VM unlocked. It updated all the way through to G710VM20c with no problems. I have put in a T-Mobile Sim, an AT&T sim and both were live instantly on their respective networks. I am a Verizon customer though and when I put in my Verizon sim it defaults to US Cellular. All my data is roaming. I can make phone calls, get texts and MMS just fine but it is all while roaming on US Cellular. I have updated the APN to the proper Verizon version but it still doesn't log onto Verizon.

Any ideas on how to fix this? Seems strange that only Verizon is putting up a fight. See attached photos.

Thanks all!

[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] sinan1453:
I m sorry don't have English and I'm writing this site for the first time

My K20 pro device was experiencing the following network problems, ı open twrp and network problem is started , I got a full backup. I tried to restore the backup of efs when the network went back and the network came, I wanted to try a different rum because I thought it was sourced from the rum, but the network went again. but it didn't open! I loaded the rum from the Miflas this time the front camera started turning on itself! This time I tried another rum and started getting persist error from TWRP. Whichever rum I load, the camera turns on and off (with a warning in the form of calibrate meat) and the network goes. Each time persist and EFS backup was restored, but this time the device is locked, the screen does not turn on! When restarted, it was bootloop again. I tried to reinstall the latest backup system, data, efs, persist, modem, this time it was hard brick. I sent repair to someone who understands these things in Istanbul but could not. The device will reach my hand in a few days. I did a lot of research on this, but I couldn't find anything. Is there anyone who can help?

Currently the device is on but the bootloop with the same error continues. The imei is not deleted, but the network problem is going.

Bugs solution result

1- network problem - (twrp efs restore) - bootloop

2-persist (camera popup) - (twrp persist restore) - bootloop

3-bootloop - not solution! - bootloop

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] wolrah:
Just to make sure there's no confusion, of course I understand that both unlocking and re-locking the bootloader result in a factory reset and all of my data stored on the phone will be lost if not otherwise backed up.

My question is about the hardware side of things. I know over the years some phones have been configured such that they lose DRM keys or other data when unlocked, which can not be backed up and thus result in permanent loss of software and sometimes (Sony Xperia Cameras) even hardware features.

Does OnePlus do anything like this on the 6T?

I totally get that if I'm rooted and/or running a custom ROM I may have issues with DRM, SafetyNet, etc while running a modified system. All of my previous Android devices have been rooted and ended their useful lives running CM/LOS versions 2-3 revisions beyond OEM support, I'm familiar with how that goes. My question is if I decide to go back to stock does everything go back to normal or is anything lost for good?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] jestyr8:
Just unlocking the bootloader shouldn't cause issues other than with a few apps such as Netflix streaming level. Rooting Will cause issues with Safety net and some apps although using magisk hide and random app name settings does a pretty good job of getting around that
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] intrusdave:
unlocking the bootloader disables the encryption of filesystem, thus the phone will be wiped clean. So yes, you will lose anything not backed up.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Jager:
This is partially wrong, unlocking the bootloader does not disable the encryption. It does wipe your phone clean though.

Unlocking the bootloader will cause you to loose Widevine L1 so Netflix and any other app that relies on this will not be able to play HD content, just as jestyr8 said.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Frankenscript:
Exactly, but this is reset if the boot loader is relocked, so it's not a permanent change, in answer to the OP query.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] wolrah:
Thank you all, and yeah I don't care what I lose while running a modified system as long as I always have the option to just flash back to stock and make everything normal again if I want.

edit: Just to be clear about the Netflix thing, that means I lose some of the higher resolution options when playing on the device itself, right?

A few years ago one of the updates to the Netflix app made it just straight up stop working on my Note 4, even as a Chromecast controller.

I really don't care all that much either way because I basically never watch on my phone and all my main TVs have Fire Sticks or other devices with remotes and Netflix clients, but sometimes Chromecasting is the most convenient option so it'd be moderately annoying to lose that again.
