[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] droidvark:
Hey folks,

I own a Oneplus 3T 128GB running Holy Dragon's (Skydragon) ROM for quite some time. I'm very happy with it and love the speed and customizability of this ROM, not to mention its stable. Basically zero issues and still lasts me 2 days when I don't use it too much. I typically get 4 to 5 hours SoT.

I'm now looking at Xiaomi 9T Pro and put the 3T on the shelf as spare. Which ROM would you guys suggest?

Customisations I'd really like are:

- Privacy guard (a must!)

- well maintained with security updates

- centered clock

- hold back to force close app

- hold recents to switch to previous app

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll be going through the ROM list too of course but hearing from experience which one would come closest would save me some time.

Cheers!
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Robbo.5000:
Basically that's (almost?) all Lineage functionality. So you want either Lineage or a ROM that is based heavily on it.

Lineage itself is very true to AOSP and so gives very little in the way of UI tweaks and customisations. If you like a ROM that you can tweak and change everything, then look for something that adds all that on top of Lineage.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Stank0:
I've got unlocked Note 10+ and I flashed the U firmware because of video calling that's missing on U1. Now I found that on T Mobile version there is no Smart Call and it is replaced by T Mobile NameID, which I consider inferior and I'd have to pay for full functionality.

Anybody knows if there is any way how to get the stock Samsung dialer with Smart Call back? I'd hate to flash the U1 ROM and go through the restore process again. Even with Samsung cloud, Google and SD backups it took me almost half day to get it set as I had it before.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] willcor:
My past experience with Samsung Smart Call, was that i found that even though, its baked into Samsung Firmware, it is Service Provider depended. to "activate /work".

I might be wrong, but i personally believe so, based on my experience.

Just to recap, my experiences with my old Note 8 and my Note 9 (both devices not rooted)

I also flashed Stock Samsung firmware .. different CSC onto these devices.

I found on both occasions i lost the function of th Smart Call.

( Hiya services), also Volte function etc etc.

I could see the Smart Call settings in firmware, but it was greyed out.

Could not enable it at all.

When i flashed my old Samsung Firmware (Service Provider CSC) Smart Call (Hiya services), was enabled again and working.

I'm sure in your case, you'll will find it's Service Provider depended.

Good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Stank0:
The thing is, after I purchased and set up the phone on stock Samsung firmware, VoLTE and Smart Call worked perfectly fine. But stupid me wanted to try the video calling. I found that the video calling is not different than Google Duo and I will NEVER use RTT texts. I see no real advantage from using T Mo firmware in comparison with stock Samsung (provisioned for T Mo of course)

Actually quite the opposite. For me, the signal strength and battery life is practically the same on both and again, FOR ME Smart Call is much more useful than video call and RTT.

If anyone knows any benefits from keeping T Mo firmware over stock, please enlighten me. I really don't want to go through the flashing the whole thing and restoring dance again, but I'm afraid I will have to.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] willcor:
Ha, your post reminds me,

that when i flashed

my branded Samsung Firmware ( Voda CSC) with the Samsung unbranded Firmware,

The reason, was also to get video calling working.

As my branded device did not have video calling option on dialer.

I could only activate video, if someone else, video called me... only then the video option, would appear.!

I then afterwards, realized that i lost my Smart Call functions. and flashed back to the branded software.

This was on my Note 9.

So i had no video call option on dialer ,but Smart Call.

Now...

again, with my branded( Voda CSC) Note 10 +,

i see that my device has video calling on dial pad.....!

So, the Service Providers, chop and changed.

A year back, they disabled video calling option, from dial pad.

Now video calling is back on the dial pad plus Smart Calls is working fine.

Good luck
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Stank0:
So.... I bit the bullet and flashed back the U1 firmware. The only thing I lost is the video calling. I still have RTT button on my dialer. Whether it works or not I haven't tried yet. I know it wasn't there on the original dialer when I purchased the phone. Maybe because I didn't flash USERDATA? Who knows.

I'm happy I've got Smart Call back.

I've tried everything to get the Smart Call app on my phone to work. The only thing I haven't tried is rooting it cause I don't know how. I have 3 versions of the apk and can't make them work.

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] rizwan312:
Using TWRP, the service tech guy at a shopping mall near my place changed my phone (on one UI, pie) from KT variant to global firmware. Now, there is no OTA menu and i cannot connect to my 5.8GHz wifi router. While the 1st SIM IMEI showing OK, the 2nd SIM IMEI is showing all 0 values. Now what i'm wondering about-

1. can i download the official firmware for F variant and using ODIN can i reflash it to bone stock?

2. will i get OTA then?

3. all in all, what i want to know- is it possible to complete convert a 965N to 965F ( i don't need dual sim feature actually)
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Youdoofus:
if its running a F based firmware right now, then you should be able to flash the factory F firmware on it with a computer at home. no need for a dude in a shop. anyways, the no update thing is likely caused by a flash that wasnt 100% successful.

go get the firmware for whatever country youre using the phone in from here https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-s9-plus/firmware/SM-G965F/ and flash it with the CSC not the HOME_CSC so that itll factory reset and likely fix the issue
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] rizwan312:
i have tried that but something, somehow it didn't work. By the way, do you know if S9+ is able to connect to 5.8Ghz wifi signal? I only see 2.4Ghz signals.

I heard that using any custom rom won't allow you to see the OTA update menu.

when i tried ODIN, as you have mentioned, i saw re-partition fail error, connection delay timeouts etc. I am in Bangladesh and i had downloaded the latest global 965F file for Bangladesh using sammobile. It didn't work.

[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Jay01:
I know the phone is not out yet but I want to know what everyone thinks of the rumored battery size of the new P4 XL with 3700mAh and a 90Hz screen.

Looking at how well the P3 3aXL did in the battery tests with 3700mAh with a older CPU do you think the P4 will do better with SD 855, I heard this CPU will be slightly down clocked and Google being Google, well optimized with their OS.

What are your thoughts?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Gopalratan:
Where did you read about the 90hz display?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Jay01:
It is mentioned everywhere online
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] krabman:
It can be reduced to 60 at your whim; not a good answer if you want to have your cake but it is good to know. Realistically Google has been shooting for various performance goals for years and is on record as saying 4 hours screen time is enough for the average user. This gibes well with what people actually get with their devices and I would expect somewhere in that ballpark depending on how you use your device.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] jsamuels:
No mention of the battery during the launch event, suggesting that while slightly larger, there's no significant improvement. Big downside for me.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Jay01:
Definitely is, instead of the camera bump at the back, I would of happily taken a bigger battery and have a flat back of the phone.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] ZeroKool76:
I'd like to believe that google has further optimized their software. Even with dynamic refresh rates, the battery on the regular 4 is shockingly small. That's the only logic I can make from that decision. I have a feeling that if google doesnt nail this one, it could spell the end for their mobile branch, simply for that fact.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] crusht:
If the XL had dual sim and min. 4000mah I would get this phone for sure but I think I will skip this one.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] sic0048:
The Pixel 4 will have dual SIMs. One is a physical SIM and one is an eSIM and the phone will support DSDA which means both SIMs can be active at the same time.

Carrier support for eSIM is another topic. Some carriers are not supporting them yet, some only on select devices, and others fully support them. So be sure the check your carrier's policies before assuming it will work.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] krabman:
The early word from Youtubers seems to be the XL battery is not terrible, MB for instance said it seemed ok but it was too early to quantify it yet.. As to dual SIM they already have a working DSDS configuration on the 3a which I have and can attest to being legit as I'm a dual SIM user. It's hard to imagine it wouldn't work on the 4 series.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] MishaalRahman:
I'm reviewing the smaller Pixel 4 so I'll let you know how it fares once the review embargo has lifted. As for DSDS, yes it does support it.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] ZeroKool76:
I'm hearing a rumor that on twitter, people are saying it's not a "true" 90hz display, but rather an OC'd 60hz. Not really sure what that means, but it makes sense if you want it to be dynamic. I don't really follow twitter, so maybe someone else in here has seen this and can elaborate. Idc what they call it, personally. As long as it works
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] krabman:
The screen seems to be the one thing Youtubers are happy about; otherwise overall they are critical of the lacking hardware and some of the design choices. I'm sure you've all seen some of those so you know what I'm talking about. The screen however seems to be getting accolades across the board so however they're doing it the effect has been positive.

I'm not well read on screen refresh rates from a hardware perspective, is there a reason to care whether it's a 90 hz being downclocked or a 60 hz being OCed?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] ZeroKool76:
Exactly. They seem to be concentrating on soli, right now. I haven't heard anything bad about the screen either. Probably just some haters. Not really sure how it works either. That is one side of tech i no nothing about, as far as implementation. This is only an assumption, but I would think that having an OC'd 60 makes more sense, only allowing it to boost when necessary. Rather than a 90hz, constantly downclocked and only returning to it's natural rate when needed. But this is all just spitballin. Either case, I am still looking forward to it, not gonna let the haters get me down
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] krabman:
Pixel phones always work better than expected in the day to day. I recall not too long ago seeing video where the guy from unboxed hardware was in a suite in Vegas with a number of other prominent Youtubers and in the video he asked them to pull out and show the phone they used personally, Pixel tied the iphone with few others phones coming out of pockets. When you think about the reception for the 3XL and it's notch and all the other complaints people who have tried everything and could us anything were putting that phone in their pocket over others. For my own purposes I'm pretty sure this one is just going to continue being the phone that shouldn't be as good as it is but somehow the whole will prove greater than the sum of it's parts just like the Pixels before it.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] barondebxl:
That wasn’t the case with the pixel 3 series. In fact many have reported it to slow down.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] krabman:
I had one, it didn't slow down at all. Also the 3a, it didn't slow down either. The phone those young millionaires pulled out, were all P3s. Did you own one yourself and see a slow down?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] barondebxl:
I didn’t own one myself however I’ve heard many saying their pixel 3 had issues with not enough memory etc... MKBHD is one of them and he is a pixel lover. Ive seen many youtubers say it so I’ll take their word for it.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] krabman:
No question on the memory, both Pixel variants suffered from redrawns and apps had/have to be reloaded that should have been in memory fairly often. If there was any question that 4 gigs is no longer enough the P3's answered it fairly well. They did not however slow down. Brownlee BTW was one of the young millionaires in that suite in Vegas and he was one of the people carrying a Pixel 3. Evidently he also found it to be more than the sum of it's parts.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] jimv1983:
The battery life is going to suck. I have a Pixel 2 XL and even brand new the battery life wasn't very good. Compared to the Pixel 2 XL the Pixel 4 XL has a 5% bigger screen, 5% more pixels, face unlock hardware, a radar sensor and 6GB RAM which will all cause the Pixel 4 XL to use more battery but the battery is only 5% bigger. That means worse battery life. And that's with the refresh rate set to 60hz. With the refresh rate set to 90hz the battery life will be much worse than the Pixel 2 XL which, again, wasn't very good.

I want better than "not terrible". Even at 60hz 3700mAh is too small. If it allowed setting the resolution to 1080p then 3700mAh would probably be ok. As it is the battery life will be a little worse than the Pixel 2 XL in 60hz mode and much worse in 90hz mode.

Review embargo?

I hope the screen is more like the Pixel 2 XL in terms of color saturation but without the other minor issues of the Pixel 2 XL screen.
[HTC U Ultra Questions & Answers] Pocket_rocket:
I have a two years HTC U Ultra as a daily driver, battery duration and other minor annoyances aside, I am pretty happy and I don't feel the need of replacing it. What worries me more is the lack of updates for the last 18+ months, what makes me wonder if it is really safe to keep using it "as is". I know there are alternative custom ROMs, but I already walked this route with other devices and they just don't meet my needs, the overall user experience is worse and the unlocked bootloader gives me headaches with apps like netflix and others. What leads me to the question... is an Android device with 8.0 and no security updates since early 2018 still safe to use?

Thanks.
[HTC U Ultra Questions & Answers] acristescu:
If it is safe? I think it still is, thinking about some who still use android 4.4 to 7. It has of course more exploitable holes in system, but it depends on what you visit online, what you download, apps you use, etc. I think that with the encryption, the stock could be safer than the custom ROMs. I am on Android Q and is not as stable as stock, the camera is also not so stable. I'm using it because this version has better battery life and speed than stock. But that's the story with almost all phones with custom ROM, an adventure ;).

It is a shame that HTC stopped the support for HTC U Ultra so fast, so we cannot have all.
[HTC U Ultra Questions & Answers] EAEmadinho:
android Q is better or 9.0 in terms of stability , camera , battery ?

and can we take any legal steps against htc to force them update the u ultra to the pie update as it has to do so as the device should have 2 years of updates , i think a legal case can be made against them

---------- Post added at 02:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:59 PM ----------

i like the stock too , specially in camera as other custom roms doesn't support the focus of camera and the laser autofocus , but now i have a strange bug that the device tries to launch something in a fraction of second and then it doesn't open it . so u see that strange empty pop up that makes the device really bad to use , did u face it ?
[HTC U Ultra Questions & Answers] Pocket_rocket:
No, that didn't happen to me so far. The worst problem it has, after two years of use, the battery duration just sucks. It never was that good, not even new, but now I can't stay too far from a charger. I haven't had good experience with third-part replacement batteries in the past, so I am not replacing it for the moment.

She said, that the phone started formating the sd card automatically and copied all internal data over to it.
