[LG V30 Questions & Answers] schwinn8:
Awesome, this is what I was looking for.

I tried getting to the secret menu, but it never seems to work (even on stock dialer). When I did the VOLTE fix on my phone, I had to use ShortcutMaster.

Regardless, once there, what should I look for/do?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] schwinn8:
I have the phone back in-hand now. As before, the SIM works fine in the old phone (LG G3) but it still doesn't connect with the new V30 (on VS996). Note, I did use a SIM adapter to put it into the old phone (it uses micro-SIM sized cards). And, again, it's seeing the correct phone number, but it's not connecting to the network. Network mode is set to global (default) and toggling that around doesn't help.

I also got ShortcutMasterLite to let me into the 4636 menu, but I don't see anything wrong in there either. Not sure how to get this phone working?!

I'm now wondering if it's just a defective phone? I'm seeing signal levels that match my other phone, but still, who knows? Maybe the radio is having issues or something... I suppose I could try my personal SIM instead, or something?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] schwinn8:
So no help.... not that I'm blaming anyone.

Problem is that the Ebay listing said that this phone will NOT work on VZ, etc. So, I don't have much hope of the seller helping me, even though it's a completely false statement, as we all know. So, I may have to convert back to US998 and then test with an ATT SIM to prove to the seller that this is a defective phone. Anyone have any ideas on how I could do this? For example, would anyone be willing to meet me somewhere (I live in CT, but I can drive wherever in New England) to try your SIM on this phone? I figure, if it doesn't work, then I have proof that it's defective. Otherwise, I don't think the seller is going to even try to help.

Anyone willing to throw me a bone here with a little help? Or anyone have other ideas on how I can test? Does ATT have a prepaid thing that I could try for a month (low cost) to prove it out or something? I know far too little about ATT...
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Yes.

They have a Prepaid minutes plan they don't like to advertise.

https://www.att.com/buy/wireless/prepaid/devicesandplans

When you put in your IMEI to the AT&T Prepaid webpage put all zeroes instead of your real IMEI and it will show you all plans, not just what they want to sell you.

Also AT&T Prepaid uses same same regular AT&T SIM cards. Don't let them sell you some special SIM card.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] cmrntnnr:
I'd have reached out to help if I had any ideas. Your hypothesis that it is broken seems reasonable and so does flashing it to US998 as verification.

Getting on the ATT network without ATT is a breeze. Cruise down to Walmart and pick up a StraightTalk kit for $30-50. It will have sims for VZ, ATT, and TM so you can choose whichever network is best for you. They're good to have around.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] HueyT:
Which VS996 version did you flash? Nougat, Oreo, Pie? Try Nougat as it's the most reliable VS996. US998 Nougat should read VZW sim also.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] schwinn8:
Thanks for the tips on ATT and Straight Talk. I think I will have to try that, but first I'm going to try to get the ebay seller to "promise" me that if I go through this, that they'll actually do something to help. Otherwise I'm just spending money for no reason.

As for the VS996, it was Oreo, the same version I'm using on my personal phones, and the other V30 - you may recall that the MIL's phone is functioning, but the FIL's is the one that is just not connecting at all... I always get 0-bars with the "x" on that one. That's what I'm trying to fix here...

Again, thanks for the tips, let's see what I can get done here with all your excellent help!
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] schwinn8:
Ok, so the debacle is over. I wanted to provide a little info for what ended up happening, and what I learned.

Longer story short, I was able to get the first H931 phone working fine with no issues. It runs on VZ towers on VS996 and US998 (I created a video for the latter, to prove it to myself and the warranty company). The second one refused to work on VZ, and I felt it had issues on GSM carriers as well (I tested Mint Mobile, as it was free). This phone was sent for repair to a warranty company that the ebay seller offered to pay for.

The warranty company tried to get that phone to work on VZ, but couldn't. They kept telling me that this was "not possible" when, as we all know, it most certainly is. Bottom line, something is defective with that phone, as I suspected. However, I expect no one is going to bother to repair it so it will likely show up on Ebay or wherever again as an H931 (or US998) with this problem persisting. I figure another buyer may not notice it, as long as they don't use VZ....

But, the moral here is that you should be careful when you buy the device, to ensure that the seller doesn't put text on their post saying that it won't work on other carriers. I was afraid of this text, but I went forward anyway as I (and we) know this works fine. I also proved it on one phone (the first one). However, if the seller says this, then they won't necessarily take any steps to help fix the issue if there is a problem anyway. I got lucky and my seller at least provided me with the warranty card, which helped a lot.

The warranty company did do everything they could to help. I have to commend them on that, as we are hacking the phone, after all... but Jose was very understanding and helpful regardless. For this reason, I really recommend their service... they are CPS Warranty and they can be found at https://www.cpscentral.com/ Again, they could have blown me off, but they didn't... and after all that, they offered a settlement to pay be back for the phone since they couldn't get it working on VZ. I'm out a little money, but the settlement was fair, so I can't complain.

So, while this all works, we do need to be careful, as some devices are defective and hard to detect for this type of issue.

[General Questions and Answers] Nobhillguy:
hello all this is my very first post and question. I have a Samsung Galaxy A20 which is tied to MetroPCS in the United States AKA T-Mobile prepaid. Anyways this phone has the automatic brightness turned off. I still notice however that the screen will get slightly dim or bright when I'm sitting in the living room and this does not have anything to do with reflection. The brightness slider does not move either. again, I make sure the automatic brightness is turned off in settings and always have phone set to max bright.
[General Questions and Answers] Nobhillguy:
Okay upon further research I have figured out a fix. Apparently Android pie has an adaptive brightness artificial intelligence. You have to go into device health services and reset adaptive brightness when it starts doing that. Hope this helps someone.

Edit again nevermind this morning the display is still dimming about 10 or 20 percent it looks like.

BTW I am gonna buy it from Flipkart is going to start big billion sale on 29th of September I still have 3 days to think thanks for reply
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] prakharayush31:
I think performance wise experience would be same but Poco will have a development community advantage over Sony, Poco will have many roms, customisation, mods etc etc.. But media consumption , screen quality, camera would be much better on Sony. It's your call, which type of experience you want since you started using Sony recently.

Well I am also buying POCO this sale only because of SD845 and active development community, mine current device is Samsung G S7, I know I am gonna sacrifice on display and looks of the phone but thats okay.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] nicholes:
Yeah development community is very big advantage for me with poco.as far as camera is concern my search says it is not big difference between them both(except super slow motion of Sony) . But yeah I like screen and built quality of Sony a lot, what I dislike about Sony beside development is its flash light which is very low.flash light is very important for me. I use it daily 3-4 times in a day. Thanks for your reply p

If you buy it from Amazon you will get it for ₹1K cheaper. ₹15K for 6+128 variant on Amazon
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] YasuHamed:
wow!

usually such questions are easy for me! if someone asks on xda that should he/she be switching from xyz to Poco or not ..

however the involvement of Sony adds ZING to this question!

keeping specs short comings of (storage/ram/screen) of xz2 when compared to Poco f1 ASIDE.............

Remember! Xperias are Apple (iphone) of the Android world! , Sony Xperia Stockrom is fine Tuned with hardware like soul to body, the simple intervace having so much to offer as your make any xperia your daily driver is I must sayd unique Japanese touch!

- you will feel happy on the hardware specs sheet of poco once its in your hands but

- you will MISS sony Xperia Stockrom UI experience big time!

- PocoF1's display with bad viewing angles, is NOTING infront of Sony's Triluminos display backed up with Bravia Engine! ,

- also Xz1 has Stereo speakers and poco f1 don't

-Xz2 is gorilla glass 5 front and back giving premiuim feeling!

- Camera of XZ2 is way better than poco f1

- xperia is more stable and can handle acidental bricking better than many devices

now poco f1 advantages

- cheaper device with SD845 no bumps curves or slippery finish so if you drop it and it breaks! it won't give your heart attack!

- poco f1 is very popular on xda and you will find many roms and kernels on and off Xda!

- rooting poco is piece of cake once boot is unlocked after 72 hours! however Rooting Sony Xperia XZ family is NOT as simple as that! YOu will have to make a deal with devil , once sony sends Unlock Key, and you use that key to boot unlock your XZ2, the Digital Rights Management Keys (DRM keys) in hidden Trim Area (TA) will be Washed/wiped and now many software will support only basic features, like sd card support will be reduced to 64gb / bluetooth 3.0 only/ camera slowmotion and other premium features wont work, fast charging wont work, bravia engine wont work, mega Bass and other sound effects won't work! ... there are long and serious work around and methods to EXTRACT TA partitions before unlocking the bootloader! but whether it works or not! only you can tell by trying these comlicated methods!

- Xz2 is not popular on xda hence i don't think so there are many custom roms or kernels! but then Sony Stockrom is itself is enough

- on custom rom! it never hangs! you can use dozen of social media apps and you will hardly notice any lags!

problems with POCO

- gosh touch issues are constantly bieng reported on various MIUI builds time to time!

- bad viewing angle makes your eyes water when you try to watch movies longer!

- modified vendor image has usb tethering error on 3g which makes system ui crashes and/or random reboots!

- I personaly found 4g connectivity issues many times on miui and or custom rom on various kernels! I am always rebooting or Toggling Airplane mode for poco to register itlef on the nearest tower with fresh ip! , where my Xperia works amazing on both 3g/4g
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] nicholes:
Yeah quite correct and clear post on topic in detail. DRM keys and deal with the devil is my real problem, also lake of custom ROMs and lake of community support makes me to buy Poco F1 over Sony Xz2. I am gonna by it tomorrow cheers
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] nicholes:
So finally I got poco coming in 3 days.

Meanwhile I wanted to know (off topic :angel:)

Does miui has automatic call recording,?

And which custom rom has these features

Automatic call recording

Button mapping ( button to kill apps, multi windows, switch recent app)

Screen shot in power button

Press and hold power button for torch (while screen is locked

These are the most important things for me please answer. Thanks

Also tell me how many of them can I find in miui?

After all this is my first experience with miui :o
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] YasuHamed:
for MIUI

since MIUI8 , the dial has automatic CALL recording (GSM calls ONLY)

- only Button MIRROR is available in miui ( recent app style is TILES only (not oreo Stack)

- swip three fingers down has screen shot gesture, ( I don't thinks so power button has such thing )

- pressing power button twice may trigger torch (you can set this guesture from miui gestures) (since miui 5)

about custom roms,

- call recorder is embeded in most of them (gsm only)

- button mapping is also available but not in every rom! you should try RR however navbar can be tweaked in nearly all roms! (havoc, crdroid, RR are the best)

- hardware keys can be configured on deep level! power menu can have many or few options as per your configuration

- you can configure torch on power button toggle (i am on havoc)

H-O-W-E-V-E-R

since you said its your FIRST expeirence with MIUI, I don't want to be a bummer or wana scare you off from poco! but........ since you are my type of person who give importance to certain types of customizations then I am affraid you will NOT like Miui very much!

why ???

- MIUI (atleast on poco) have no KEYBOARD switch key in navbar, if you have two or more keyboards installed (gboard and/or swiftkey) everytime you will have to swipe down the notification find SELECT INPUT METHOD to change /toggle between keyboards! where on stock android and in all custom roms (LOS based or CAF based) have this feature appears in either LEFT or RIGHT (or both) sides of navigation bar (you can customize)

- miui navbar stays WHITE most of the times and for me its annoying!

- miui recent screen has tiles method which is very annoying for me!

- you cannot disable any bloatware! you must ROOT your device and have third part app to do that!

-poco has modified vendor image ( i am gonna avoid details here) , so the impact is you must ditch MIUI kernel for poco and have custom kernel like FRANCO/ Twisted / OD / sphinx etc and use kernel manager app if you wana BOOST sound/volumes etc

- poco screen is unlike sony so i use custom kernel for KCAL to enrich vibrance

- notification method on miui is strange! , i noticed it puts LATEST msg from any one in the BOTTOM of that tile, for example if you recieve 3 msgs from 3 users on whatsapp apart few seconds each, stock android puts latest on top within WHATSSAPP tile, howeve miui puts it on bottom, so kept reading obsolete notification lines unless i became annoyed! , same case should be with emails too ( I don't remember that)

- miui has limited quick setting icons! i wanted to add toggle 3g/4g and usb tethering on Quick Setting Panel but i had to do that from netwrok settings always!

- due to modified vendor image, all custom roms have this BUG where if you tether 3g , the System ui craches or many com.android.phone starts crashing! so try to avoid usb tethering on 3g network!

Just installed LOS on my Nexus 6P -- I'm excited! I'm totally new to custom ROMS & have a few initial questions. Oh, I do not have the Play Store & Google apps installed (I think you call them gapps?) .

Why is Chrome the default browser? This was a huge shock to me -- I expected Firefox for a privacy focused ROM. How do I remove Chrome?

Is the default email app some sort of Gmail clone? I have not yet added any email accounts to it because I need to better understand what this default email app is all about -- I don't want to connect to anything Google. I will be using O365 Exchange & iCloud.

Is there a way to get ExpressVPN to work on LOS? I don't see the app on F-Droid.

Where else can I go to find apps that are safe to install?
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] kurtn:
Congratulations.

-chrome is not the default browser. Android contains chromium web view which is used by default leightweight browser. That is identified as chrome by webpages. You can replace the webview with bromide or install fennec from f-droid.

-email is a native AOSP app, you can trust.

-no idea about vpn. Some are even worse than a average ISP. You can use tor instrad.

-sometimes i install apps from Google play store. No need to use play app. Use yalp or aurora.

And you will connect to Google as soon as you touch any connect device.
