[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] seyrarms:
I'm use too 601SO but for me. I'm use global rom, since Softbank not release Oreo update OTA so i'm use from global
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] Enrico Vialli:
you haven't answered my question for days, how did you able to unlock the bootloader if it said "unlock bootloader allowed:no" ?
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] Enrico Vialli:
seriously dude? is this guide legit or not? can't give a simple answer?
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] seyrarms:
You need use S1 Tools Network for unlock thats
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] seyrarms:
I'm use too 601so but you need flash to global cause from softbank haven't updated oreo.
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] Enrico Vialli:
it took you over a month to answer my question, and your answer is that tool, which i need to pay £35(which is big amount in my country) just to use it to unlock bootloader... totally not worth it

time wasted, very dissapointed
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] seyrarms:
Sorry for late answer i'm very busy, yeah if you need unlock for use that. If not worth it don't root you device or change your device.
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] The montain:
Hi, I did unlock my SOV34 bootloader while seeing your thread*

But SIM card is no longer detected after unlocking bootloader and I have no idea how to fix it.

In your sov34, Is The SIM card detected?

Thank you

(i sent mail about the same to your gmail)
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] seyrarms:
Your problem is from sim lock. See your network subset it must be locked. That is a problem that often occurs in SOV34. So you need open from toolbox for unlock that's permanent sim.

Network [0] - this means the phone is network unlocked.

Network Subset [5] - this is a Carrier Restriction that only allows certain SIM cards.

In Japan, CDMA are dominant networks. I think since this is a GSM network, they set a Network Subset lock to restrict exporting.

deep sleep working?the main reason i dont wan't change my firmware cuz of this issue,nfc off not a problem for me
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] seyrarms:
Its working all just nfc off
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] filandry:
the guide is very helpful,but i'm kinda confused with the step about flash boot.img,how i can get my boot.img to be flashed?cuz your file is from sov34 boot.img right?and what about restoring TA?is it required?
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] seyrarms:
I have 2 Device : SOV34 and Softbank. For boot you need make that with Rootkernel V5. 23 (Unofficial 2.5) by [MENTION=3989065]serajr[/MENTION]. Dont you use boot from this guide for your softbank because this for SOV34 and very different with you device. For restoring you use with same app backup TA. If you wanna sell again device very required.
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] seyrarms:
Deep sleep its working
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] filandry:
yes just tested,convert my 601SO to global french and ubl+twrp,and flash lineage 15.1 oreo,deep sleep is working,and rom is much better than stock,and also change to french firmware make my reception to lte+ which is nice,nfc is off(doesn't matter) since my 601SO is secondary device :good:

And no luck, just tried it, and my k20 pro (andoird 10) says only "Fast charging" as the original 18w charge that came with him out the box. I askin the dude right now and waiting for response.

Maybe you can help me find another one, also explain to me why this one is failing or the seller is just a fiasgo?!

Pd: Here is a picture of the charger than i bought
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Accessories] Alienx_1017:
Bro..The C type cable which comes with the phone box contents supports only 18W ..So try changing the cable for 27w

You can keep using the 18watt charger, not much difference in charging times.. :)

Depends on... I think it's worth to upgrade.;)

For me it's a big difference.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Accessories] xNovaLeader:
yes its is worth..you wont regret it..coz im using 27wat original xiaomi right now..
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Accessories] Rekunfeku:
Hey guys, do you get a different message on the lock screen when charging with the 27w? I have seen some videos showing a "turbo charger" or something similar. Let me know please.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Accessories] SakuraNight:
Yes , If you are using the official MIUI 10, it will display “Charge Turbo” in the center of the screen, indicating that you are using 27W fast charging.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Accessories] Am NoobMaster69:
LOL ambient temperature slows down the charging, even comparable to 18watt charger
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Accessories] Deleted member 5408779:
Don't know what you are talking about. It slows down right and it won't charge all the time with full power but whole charging process is faster lol. Where is the sense of 27w charger if it's the same as 18w?
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Accessories] peter0010:
Are you sure it works perfectly?

Mine can't go higher than 4.2A it seems.

With a oneplus dash cable it charges with 4.7-4.8A
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Accessories] Deleted member 5408779:
Yes I'm sure. Check my post in other thread.

[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Accessories] peter0010:
thats weird. I haven't seen anything higher than 4.2A with the original cable yet. But I did see 4.8 with a oneplus one.

edit: nevermind. I think my capacity was too high already when I test it last time. Now it is charging with 4.7A

edit2: or not.. when I've reached like 30% it drops down to 4A, but on your screenshot it still charges with 4600 at 45%?

something seems wrong with my cable/charger.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Accessories] Deleted member 5408779:
Maybe kernel related. I don't use Miui. I'm on LOS.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Accessories] peter0010:
Nope. Just flashed LOS 17 and it doesn't charge with more than 3.9A @ 46%
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Accessories] Deleted member 5408779:
With LOS 17 its a lil bit slower than LOS16. I'm not sure but it seems so.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Accessories] Deleted member 5408779:
I have just tested it again with LOS17 and it's perfect.;)
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Accessories] peter0010:
I don't get it.. mine is definitely slower at this capacity. What I've also noticed, is that I have to reboot my phone at least once to get rapid charging working. That isn't normal either, is it?

E.g my Mi 9 is powered on --> I plug the charger in --> Ampere says it charges with max 2A even though it says "charging rapidly" on the lockscreen. --> then I reboot and only then it is actually rapid charging with 4.8A@13% at first, then later on it will drop while the temps are even lower than on your screenshot :(

Why does it say Pixel 2 as device on your screenshot though? Is your current ROM the unofficial LOS 17 Port By abhishek987?
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Accessories] Deleted member 5408779:
Yes im using abhisheks LOS.

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] focus-pocus:
I bought factory unlocked S9+ (SM-G965U1) phone a year ago. I always thought that software updates for unlocked phones are independent of carrier, and this was one of the advantages of owning one.

However, after Pie update I was stuck with January security update. I recently started to wonder why, and I stumbled across multiple threads on Samsung and T-Mobile support forums about this problem. BTW, I'm using T-Mobile.

Apparently, Samsung pushes updates to unlocked phones based on the carrier you're currently using! For some weird reason, they haven't pushed updates for those who use T-Mobile sim card:

https://doc.samsungmobile.com/SM-G965U1/TMB/doc.html

T-Mobile itself pushed updates for T-Mobile-branded S9+ phones: https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-37179

Here are Samsung updates for unlocked phones that use Sprint sim cards: https://doc.samsungmobile.com/SM-G965U1/SPR/doc.html

This is unbelievable. I don't understand, why in the first place Samsung differentiates unlocked phones by carrier sim cards. Software builds that are pushed are still the same in the end regardless of sim card, just check Samsung update webpage for different carriers (e.g. https://doc.samsungmobile.com/SM-G965U1/XAA/doc.html )

Anyway, I went to Bestbuy and bought a $1 sim card kit. I put ATT compatible sim card into my phone, and without any activation I got all of the security updates until September.

What the hell is going on? Are T-Mobile users stuck on putting different sim cards in their phones to get latest software updates?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] ShaDisNX255:
Man, that must really suck.

This is the first time I'm reading that the updates depend on the SIM card. I have a T-Mobile phone variant using a Mexico SIM. So now my curious side has me if I should attempt to update using the T-Mobile software and seeing if I find an update with my Mexico SIM. Probably still won't update.

But, I have no way of TWRP backing up so, I won't even attempt.

I already changed firmware anyway, I have flashed stock carrier-free firmware on the phone and I'm on the latest security patch (September)
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] YrrchSebor:
YES, this maddens me greatly! If I didn't know how to use Odin I would be stuck months and months back! All kinds of little carriers push the updates, but not T-Mobile! Thanks for the $1 SIM card idea, that sounds easier than downloading firmware and flashing with Odin.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] focus-pocus:
I think that this is Samsung's fault. This is factory unlocked phone, so it receives updates directly from Samsung. For some reason, Samsung still differentiates between carriers by making CSC carrier-specific (even though pushed builds are the same for all carriers in the US!), instead of just being XAA, which it should be.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] focus-pocus:
Actually, there is a post regarding this issue on XDA: https://www.xda-developers.com/samsung-treating-us-unlocked-device-owners-second-rate-citizens/

This is horrible on Samsung's end. It's sad, since this is the best phone I've owned so far in terms of hardware. But it'll definitely affect my decision, when it's time to upgrade.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] matrixology:
Same issue I am currently facing. I flashed latest stock rom G965FXXUAETG3 and now my phone is on 'emergency calls only'. I am in Pakistan and I think carrier is locked now. However, in Service provider SW very PAK/ PAK,PAK, TEL is written.

The thing is that the m9 boots and everything, I can even call with it and open the factory installed apps, but when I want to download something from google play it says "waiting for wi-fi" and when I try to download something from chrome it says "no sd card found, do you want to download it to the preset location?" and it only gives the option "downloads" but in gray and shows "not enough space".

Recently updated to Android 10 Q

I have had zero luck in getting Titanium Backup to work properly. Even when trying to restore data, it causes the app the crash resulting in me needing to uninstall and reinstall (not even wiping data helps).

Any steps I need to follow?

I have root with Magisk 19.4 (patched boot img), latest Q update (.c).

I'd really love to get this working as otherwise I'll have lost all SMS data. I backed up before wiping my phone, but the Google backup wasn't available for me to restore from...even my plan B is failing X^D
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] sliding_billy:
I got around to doing a full flash yesterday (even full flashed both slots) with the .c factory image. Also got the canary MM and canary Magisk updates early this morning. TiBa is working fine for me. Just a shot in the dark, but are you running EdXposed or any other modules/modifications (Substratum themes) that could be causing issues? The only modules I have loaded are MagiskHide Props Config, Active Edge System Mod and systemless hosts. My BusyBox is Stericson and not the module.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] MeetFace:
No other modules or mods installed, not even a custom kernel at that point., but I found that part of my problem is that TiBu corrupted my messages backup. It took the better part of an hour to back up, but the backup file is only about 350 KB...I'm crestfallen, lol. Never had an issue like that with TiBu, been using it for years. Didn't even think to check that the backup was saved properly.

Lol, I woke up this morning and flashed back to Android Pie so I could restore my messages in TiBU, and then back them up some other way and then roll forward to 10...only to discover this. Talk about salt in the wound.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] sliding_billy:
Glad it worked out. I don't use TiBa for messages. I use SMS backup and Restore. I absolutely love that app.

Any other ideas on how I could restore these messages?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] MeetFace:
It's already installed. TiBu installed it automatically
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] MeetFace:
If you have a large message archive, it can take 30-45 minutes to restore. Maybe it's working
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] C5Longhorn:
It turned out that I needed to make TiBu the default SMS app for the restore. Once I did that it worked right away.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] ktmom:
Didn't TiBu prompt you to do that?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] C5Longhorn:
Not that I'm aware. It may have a couple of weeks ago, but not this latest time.
