[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] PROGamer_199:
Hi, my S8 has started (for no reason at all from my understanding) to refuse to charge "correctly". By that, I mean that you need to disconnect and plug in the cable 3 or 4 times before managing to make it fast charge or charge at all. When it doesn't want to fast charge or charge normally, it says that it will be full in 6 hours of charge, 6 damned hours, and not even that is accurate because I have tried leaving it to charge in 6 hours and it only charged 20%. I have tried 4 cables until now, even the one that came in the box. All cables are working correctly on other phones, and I think that if the charging port is the main issue, it shouldn't charge at all in my opinion if it was bricked.

The phone has been rooted for 4 months before the charging issue appeared, and I haven't installed any modules, root modifications, roms, kernels or anything big like that.

Info:

Phone: S8 G950-F Exy Black 64GB

Rom: Default AOSP rom

Kernel: NX Kernel

Root: Magisk 19.( Magisk 19.3, Magisk manager 7.3.4)

Modules installed: FDE.AI / XMLPak - a road to vendor apps

Will answer further questions if the need be.

I need help how to set exception to recurring tasks on pocket outlook. Let's say I have a tasks that occurs on the 15th of every month. However if the 15th occurs on Saturday/Sunday (non workday) I would like the tasks to be done on the Friday (13th/14th). How do I do this pattern?

Also how do I set-up the tasks reminder so it should notify me two days before the due date, but only once each day? Hitting snooze seems so kludgy.

Thanks.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] digitaljokerman:
I have a Sprint V30, and I'm seriously annoyed with not having an update to Pie. I've read in some places that you can use LGUP to flash a LG-LS998 with a US998 kdz. Is that true? Or will that screw up my phone?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
But you still use Sprint, right?

Most people do that to either

1) carrier unlock LS998 by flashing Open Market US998 firmware, which also changes radio/modem

OR

2) to bootloader unlock and install TWRP custom recovery -- at which point if they are Sprint customers they often then flash back to Sprint firmware (while keeping TWRP and root). Because US998 modem/radio doesn't have all the Sprint LTE bands. For Sprint customers, the Frankenstein LS998 to US998 flash is temporary necessity for bootloader unlock only.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] digitaljokerman:
So, is there no way to keep my phone perfectly in tact but still have Android Pie.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
No. Sprint says LS998 Pie is coming end of November 2019.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] digitaljokerman:
Oh! I think I can wait that long.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] BROKEN1981:
[MENTION=3250376]ChazzMatt[/MENTION] actually held off on 9.0 as well as many people regret updating to 9.0 such as myself. The only real difference in this update is LG UX8. 9.0 just doesn't offer much.

Remember, this is not a Pixel. Those users NEED updates to try to catch up to features regular users actually have.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] digitaljokerman:
Why do people regret updating to 9.0?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
1) Because most custom ROMs don't work right once phone is updated to Pie. I have clear warning in every Pie KDZ thread I maintain. Even if you downgrade back to stock Oreo, if try to install custom ROM you then have run a permissive kernel for camera to work and even then some sensors may be messed up.

2) On stock Pie, some apps we like to use like Shortcut Master won't work.

There's nothing currently in stock Pie that's better than stock Oreo. Except for the minor upgrade to UX8.0. But it doesn't look any different. The camera is the same, etc.

Here's what is podted5:

____

Sure, I'll link to your post. I already say not to update to Pie yet if you wish to unlock bootloader.

I'll also add note not to update to Pie yet if you wish to run ASOP/Linage custom ROMs with link to your post. Then when the issue is fixed I can remove that specific warning.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] BROKEN1981:
DTS:X no longer works on PowerAmp. You can disable DVC, but audio quality will suffer.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] digitaljokerman:
So you're saying the DAC no longer works?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Not the Quad DAC itself, but a very important feature added on several months ago -- DTS 3D Stereo -- doesn't work with a popular media player on Pie.

Basically there's nothing about Pie that is neccesary to have and several things right now that can cause problems.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] BROKEN1981:
The DAC works, I just don't understand why DTS:X will no longer work in PowerAmp with DVC on.

It works on USB Audio Player Pro. HOWEVER!!! The UX is pure trash while PowerAmp navigation is awesome to use.

I reported it to Maxx

https://forum.powerampapp.com/topic/17918-dts-poweramp-pie-lg-v30/

---------- Post added at 11:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:26 PM ----------

Can the LG-H903DS achieve root? Also does it have the DTS framework? I told Maxx I could have sworn it has both.

This guy owns like a zillion phones lol.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Do you mean H930DS?

Yes, we even have H930DS TWRP flashable zips.

We even have a mod from Australia with an H930DS, rooted of course.

Yes, all V30 variants on Pie have DTS.

All V30 variants on last 2 or 3 Oreo updates (released in 2019) also have it EXCEPT for Canada H933. H933 never got an Oreo update with DTS libs for some reason. (They can always convert to 2019 US998 Oreo and have it.)

But all have it on Pie.

Is 30a Pie? I'm on 27a now and thinking of upgrading to 30a via this TWRP-flashable:

https://xdaforums.com/lg-v30/development/rom-sprint-lg-v30-debloated-30a-t3966069

Am I going to have problems like with camera?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Sprint LS998 does NOT have Pie yet. Sprint 30a is Oreo, breaking all the naming convention.

If you update to LS998 30a, you will have latest and probably last Oreo for that variant.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] JesseAaronSafir:
Oh! So how does 30a compare to 27a? Better, faster, more stable, I hope? I'm unclear if it includes the DirectX3D sound? I hope so because that made the sound good enough I felt like I don't need Viper4Android anymore.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
It still includes DTS 3D Stereo, yes.

It has newer Security patch.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] kdog350:
So, looks like the Sprint V30 is never getting official Android Pie. Is there any way to get Android Pie while also keeping it working with Sprint?

[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] mejgs:
I really don't have any clue or solution on which Miui version I should flash to get decent battery life. No matter what version I use, (global, beta, miui 10/11) I always have high battery usage from one of these:

1. Cell standby (tried to switch network types, also through *#*#4636#"#* etc. without effect)

2. Whatsapp (this cr*p sometimes uses 60% of the battery, and I'm not even using it)

3. Android system (counts for most of the system processes and I get it but....)

I tried all kinds of battery optimizations, debloating through Adb etc.

Yesterday I flashed Havoc 2.9 and immediately my first cycle gave me 9:27 hrs of SOT on 4g, which I never managed to get before. I really like Miui, and I wanna use it, but have no idea what to do anymore.

Any suggestions of any kind?
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] Pupet_Master:
Latest BETA of MIUIMIX has great BB.

On MIUI always go Beta and Chinese vendor
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] hwandroid:
I would say MIUI battery optimization is highly customizable. You just need to figure it out.

Go to Settings / Battery & Performance / App battery saver and click on Whatsaup choose "Restrict background activity"

Also you can go to Security app and click Manage apps from there you can see all apps and their permissions there block or restrict services you don't want to be running in the background unless you are using the app at the moment.

Other setting was in MIUI 10 "Start in background" but I don't see it anymore in MIUI 11 I guess it is removed for better battery life. If you are using MIUI 10 go to Permissions / Other Permissions and click on any app you will see the list of options including that the app can be run in the background automatically.
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] mejgs:
I tried all of the above, but whatsapp always eventually comes on top, including "cell standby". This was also the case on the Xiaomi Mi6, but on Poco it was all ok, it had phenomenal sot all the time
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mtc43:
Hello. I have a huawei ascend y550 and I want to unlock the bootloader in it, but unfortunately all services that enable it are paid, and programs for that too. I would like to ask you if it is possible to get this code in some way for free or if any of you have a program for this kind of thing or could I generate this code in some way. I need the code because the branded Android 4.4.4 is cumbersome to use and I would like to upload twrp and custom rom. Please help.

PS: I am sorry for any mistakes in my post and if this is not the right department to transfer the post.

Regards.
[Sony Xperia L] scvz:
So I wanted to install a custom rom and my steps were:

1. install official twrp app

2. root my phone

3. download the newest twrp for xperia L

4. Flashed the newly downloaded TWRP

Then the phone turned off and almost doesn't respond. The only thing it does is vibrate when i hold down the power button, and flash red and green when i hold down the volume- button while connected via usb to my pc. My question is - why? I thought i did everything correctly. Can anything be done at this point?
[Sony Xperia L] Kungfu73:
This is normal and your way is somehow wrong, because Stock ROM doesn't support newer TWRP's. you shuold use them only if you already have a custom ROM installed. Also make sure you have unlocked your boot-loader (search the forum for more help)

First,check that if your phone can boot to fastboot mode and PC can detect it. (using adb command: adb devices ).

Then, You may use the method 3 of flashing twrp, mentioned HERE. (you should be familiar with adb & fastboot, and have installed the phone drivers to windows)

This post may also be helpful.

In any case, to get back to Stock ROM, use This post
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] pauljohn54:
Just wanted to share my experiences so far from someone who has used the HYTN II for 8 months and now has a diamond.

So why buy a diamond?

Its easier to explain if you understand that I also owned a HTC Magician for 3 years and that I got so used to the stylus that when I got my tytn ii i realised that old habits die hard i.e. I never used the keyboard.

So if I never use the keyboard then obviously why own a bulky device that has one. that was one of the rationales to buy this device but like many I also was disappointed after the first 4 days of use. However its beginning to grow on me and for these reasons:

1. Small form factor and light.

2. GPS is quite amazing compared to the TYTN II. I am getting fast locks no matter how many times I reset from a cold start. Of course at the moment I am limited to using GPStest and Garmin Mobile XT. However I did mange to get Mapking R12 to work but only on build 1005 all other builds are device specific.

3. every day the forum finds a new tweak which makes it faster and it was like this when I got the magician and the tytn II.

4. Touchflo - take it or leave. I turned it off and put batterystatus with again the forums developed themes and that runs well but I have turned it back on again because it simply looks good. Hopefully additional tweaks will help to improve this.

4. Multimedia- I am not hearing good things at the moment but Coreplayer 1.2.5 runs fine and even TCPMP 072RC1 recomp 3 runs and with the ac3 plugin those divx movies look very good and run well (the recomp 3 version is also another contribution done for this forum). Also I thnk with the audio booster the MP3 playback is definately improved comapred to my TYTN II. It could be the headphones I guess but the sound is deeper and richer.

What I still do not like:

1. Poor power but its on its third power cycle and seems to be improving although I suspect it may need a better battery. However when I had my TYTN II I remeber that when Dutty started to develop his ROMS and Schap applied his tweaks we almost doubled the battery life and so I am hoping this will happen here also.

2. Can still be a bit laggy but again I can't wait for those chefs to cook some magic

3. The biggest dislike for me is the fact that the back is not flat and it moves when you use the stylus with the device flat on a table.

Anyway rambling as usual but just some food for thought. Do check the other forums such as development and hacking. There are some wonderful and free apps developed there.
[Huawei Nova 2 Questions & Answers] pm74:
Hi,

on Ebay I bought a brand new Huawei Nova 2 PIC-LX9. This is a variant that should be able to operate on LTE band B20 800MHz.

Unfortunately, in places where only LTE B20 band is available, the phone is connected to EDGE . I searched a bit and found out that the model designation differs in several places:

in the android settings - PIC-LX9

in the engineering mode (after entering the code *#*#2846579#*#*) - PIC_AL00_VE

on the box and battery cover of the phone - PIC-LX9

in the Chinese manual - PIC-AL00.

I have few questions:

-what´s problem with LTE ? Bug after update? Or is this a rebranded phone?

-Is the hardware of all Nova 2 variants the same?

-Is it possible to unlock/enable the B20 band?
[Samsung Gear S3] ar85dan:
Hello all,

I just bought a Gear S3 Frontier which i am using with an LG G7.

My problem is that if the phone is not set to vibrate when receiving Facebook Messenger messages than the watch will not vibrate. if i put the phone on vibrate, the watch will also vibrate. this is the same also for normal sms.

Can i change this somehow? I would like my phone NOT to vibrate (basically just show on the screen that i got a message in FB messenger) and my watch to vibrate.

thanks
[Samsung Gear S3] gschot:
I had the same problem with the S3 connected to a Samsung phone (either Note 8 or Note 10, similar behaviour). The watch only vibrates when the message on the phone also triggers vibration. I wanted exactly the same behaviour you describe. I enabled the vibration on the phone for messages, but a Samsung phone also allows the vibration intensity to be set per type (i.e. calls, messages, etc.), so though vibration is enabled for messages, I set its intensity to 0. Now the phone does not vibrate on messages, but my Gear S3 does.

I don't know if the LG allows changing these settings similarly though...

[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] Rinor:
Hi all,

Some time ago when I got my A70 I discovered that GPS didn't work well. In fact it didn't work at all. Using GPS Test APP the phone was able to find around 30 satellites with good signal but it would not "lock" the position therefore I could not use GPS based apps like navigation or speedometer!

Yesterday I went to another country to just discover that navigation was working perfectly and that was only until at the border, at the border the GPS stopped working again and phone returned to no navigation again!

Now I started wondering if the GPS issue is country (state) related?

Do any of you have GPS problems?

Can you think of any solution in case my suspicion is true?

P.S It is worth to state that weather was all the time clear with no clouds and the country problem is also present on other apps like, Samsung store, play store etc. Where many items are not available for purchase or download!

[Realme XT Questions & Answers] SaiNikhil:
Hello RXT Users,

I bought a new Realme XT (6GB,64GB, Pearl White) Mobile, which works like a beast.

But within a week, I accidently noticed that the true deep blacks of Amoled display actually kills the surrounding Grey colour pixels especially in videos (or moving frames).

When I using Instagram, Samsung just posted some photos. when I try to swipe one photo horizontally, I noticed that the gradient colours (White to black) are like vanished some time and and a bluish shade is appearing btw the blacks and whites.

Then I started comparing this with other LCD panel, which is not doing these weird things. I also did a side by side comparison btw Realme XT and other LCD display by playing a dark horror movie. The results came was not expected.

First things first, the picture quality, colours, contrast and viewing angles are awesome in Amoled display, But the grey coloured details which are nearer to the black pixels are missing, they are completely gone.

Example:

• Original frame in the movie - A dark room with cupboards and interior.

• Picture shown in LCD display - white blushed dark room with cupboards and interior.

• Picture shown in Realme XT - A Deep Dark Black room with no interiors no cupboards or even no walls.

I can't understand why the Amoled display takes more time when pixels changes from black to grey colours, may it's because of low refresh rate.

Can anyone please tell the display refresh rate of Realme XT and try the above tests to clarify that I am not the only one who got these weird thing. Thanks in advance.

Note: I am using Amoled display for the first time.
[Realme XT Questions & Answers] moonsmart00712345:
This is quite disturbing to know. I was planning on buying XT and returning my Poco armoured, as it has ghost touch issues and I don't need that much processor power for daily usage.

Also, with XT getting started on development I hope I won't miss Poco. But with the above-mentioned issue, I'm getting skeptical because my primary reason to get XT was AMOLED display. I don't want to get disappointed by it.

Although it doesn't has ambient display and dark mode yet but I hope it'll be there in future updates.
[Realme XT Questions & Answers] himanshu.dk:
After reading this post I checked my xt's display for the greys in dark scenes with my le 2 LCD display and I'm pretty satisfied.
