[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nahata28:
Hi,

I bought Sonic Sender and due to some changes in Google policy, App Developer has to taken down the app from Google Play Store. This app is very useful since it send automatically message oon whatsapp to selected contacts (For example I need to send New Year Wishes to 400 people out of my 700 whatsapp contact). I have to choose contact, select media and text and click on Send. It send automaticllay one by one to selected whatsapp contact and thus saving my time. I was using the app even after removing from play store but yesterday due to some reason I uninstalled and reinstalled app. App Version 2.0.6 which is readily available on many website crashes after opening of app (I guess due to non-availability of same on Play Store) and Version 2.1.1 stuck with Google Login and when I select account it throw error Failed to Authenticate.

Can any one help me getting the app working again or can some one suggest me any alternative to said app.

Thanks in Advance....

Is there a way to have more than 1 calendar event show up on the home screen like there was for the Touch Cruise?

thanks for your help!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Alfredos:
Maybe the same as SPB Diary so like 31 days???
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] adamz:
I've been looking for a way to show more calendar entries on the home screen too. Haven't found anything in any of the options or settings. Maybe in the registry?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] gaz_az:
Dunno either but will be watchingthis thread with anticipation !

:D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] auswill2:
1. Is there a much better calendar that can be installed and totally take over the existing calendar (even show events on the home screen)

If not, anyone know how to stop the calendar going straight into Agenda view when u hit calendar on the home screen. Ive set it so it shows in Month view as default. But this only works if you run calendar in Programs. If you run calendar via the home screen - it still takes you to agenda view. Even if I have an event there I still prefer to go to Month view
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] walshieau:
the calendar ONLY shows today's appointments.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] adamz:
Not even that. Sometimes it only shows the next appointment, sometimes it shows two. I haven't figured out what the second appointment has to be in order for it to be shown. Maybe only "busy" status? It's weird. I wish it could show upcoming appointments like the regular Calendar today item.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] marisa4755:
In the manual it says that it will only show 1 all day appointment and up to 2 timed appointments. I've found the first timed appointment always shows, but sometimes getting the second to show up is a problem. Don't know if it's status or time.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] bsinclair:
Sure there is, have a look at the freeware TodayAgenda
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] hallatore:
With the main clock minimized, the TouchFLO should show up to 4 events.

Hopefully this will work in the next version.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] jbreit1:
I'm looking for the same. (Thanks search function!)

I agree it shows only one full day appt and one timed in my case. I didn't find any tweak.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] LamPET:
Hi,

TF3D shows 1 all day appointment and 1 or 2 appointments. It shows 2 appointments only if the first is already started. So the actuel started and the next to come.

i don't know if calendar+ app will work, i am not familiar with diamond touchflo 3d yet. don't know if you can just add today items anymore or not.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] ericsson68:
This app only changes the default links that TF3d connects to - not the look of touch flow. I.E. if you install Pocket Informant (which is excellent by the way) it will now link to that rather than the default WinMo calendar.

One compromise to improve quick viewing of calendar, tasks etc is to install Second Today and then a today plugin such as Pocket Breeze.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] stevensp:
Hi I am actually wondering if Calendar is able to show the next upcoming appointments that is due in a few days time. My appointments will only show if the appointment's timing is on the following day.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] rumpleforeskin:
this seems to be one of the most complained about short comings of tf3d. thought HTC would have addressed the issue already.

By using SecondToday, is works perfect. You just need to tap & go instantly. Mentioned by earlier post by "ericsson68". Maybe more convincing by looking at the following screenshots. Click on the lower left will bring you to Second Today screen. Click OK return to 3D TouchFlo screen. Isn't that amazing . . .

Hi, I just got my Oneplus 7 Pro GM1910 and installed OxigenOS by the seller. After some days, I realized that most of my app does not show high quality image (netflix, chrome, spottify, facebook). Those image from those apps look not as clear and sharp as those in my oneplus 6.

Still I dont know the reason and how to resolve the problems of bad quality image, video from those apps?

Dear Admin/Mods

The most view Development and Hacking section is awesome for all the Phone.

we found many usefull and super apps here (VJ Uties,PocketCM, S2U, plugins, patch, hack...)

and day goes by we also found many pretty and sexy theme/skin in this section too.

It's now hard to know and find if some app or skin is update or born.

so i request may we have a section for the skin/theme to let the Development and Hacking grow like it should be (monster now :D) and make our world biggest powerfull forum more romantic :)

Thank You.

PS: dont worry about screen resolution, just add [QVGA/VGA] to the skin Thread title :D

So I'm not the only on with this idea!!!

I think it'd be really useful to keep the regular dev and hacking forum clean while making it easy to find themes when I need them.

If you have a Pocket CM theme post it there. A new app or update app post it in the dev forum.

Some theme's really do involve a lot of work. I think they could just be posted in the theme forum, but it could go either way...

Also I think it'd be really useful if we had a sort of format for naming threads:

"Updated 6/16/2008: PocketCM Windows 7 Blue and Green Themes VGA/QVGA" or something like that.

1 thread per theme. Themes that only vary in color would be posted in the same thread.

we recently got a SMSNG washing machine delivered to our labs and despite some initial hesitation, we contacted UK Customer and Technical Support Departments. as well as suggesting gifting US with a bonus ( 3YRS parts and labor warranty extension ) they actually helped in achieving what we wanted, product registration for both SAMSUNG ACCOUNT on their website and for SAMSUNG MEMBERS too. agents for CTSD also managed to help US with performing a complete test of washing machine features, and results are excellent , so far.

we can now add " Samsung UK " in that list with some other Samsung subsidiaries ( AUS; CA; CN; HK; NZ; SG; USA; ) we may contact with confidence when we hit a nuisance with SAMSUNG goods and services.

G'Day.

My phone's display and touch input stopped working. Hardware failure.

I checked with the service centre, they have told that display IC is gone.

My phone is working fine without display, If I call then I am able to hear the ringtone and fingerprint scanner also working fine. my phone USB debugging is turned off. Phone is rooted. I have twrp custom recovery installed. Stock ROM.

Phone is locked and without entering the unlock pattern once, the fingerprint scanner won't work.

Is there any way to access the data stored in the phone?

Or is there any simply way to connect the phone to any other external display without replacing the display?

Cheers.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] byemoto:
Hello, i am a bit sensitive to amoled pwm flicker on a low brightness. How bad is it on the Mi A3 screen? Is there a workaround (e.g. DC dimming) for that issue? I hope that device's screen would be suitable for reading.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] saravanababu:
Sorry, what is pwm
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] maczpiku:
google it bro, a method to control screen brightness via pulse-width modulation
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] GuestK00447:
Reading on this screen is like stabbing with hot wire in your eye. No joking. Does this screen have PWM? I thought the eye strain comes from the low resolution + pentile matrix.

Dont buy this phone, I have massive eye strain since I bought it. My eyes are red in the evening and itching.

I own 2 Samsung amoled tablets, zero eye strain after reading all night long. With this Mi A3, eye problems start the minute I use it.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
Do you notice the eye strain with brightness at 100%?
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] GuestK00447:
I don't know, the eye strain is accumulative I think, you get some tolerance after I while, but when you overdo it, then it gets triggered even after 10 seconds of looking at that phone. Now my eyes are so messed up, that I'am not touching that phone again, only when I receive a call. This phone has to go away ASAP, and I was so satisfied with my MI A1, that I did not except this from Xiaomi.

Maybe Xiaomi will do a software update like they did for the Mi9.

https://www.notebookcheck.net/Xiaomi-has-ditched-PWM-on-the-Mi-9.417484.0.html

In the reviews it was not mentioned to be PWM. This should be always specified.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] debido666:
It is a Samsung screen.

---------- Post added at 04:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:21 PM ----------

Let's hope with Android 10 they switch to DC.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
PWM is widely used as it retains color accuracy with lower brightness. Even some mid-high end Samsung LCD TVs use it. DC switching is more tricky, I don't think that Xiaomi will do any major change for Mi Ax line (just see the screwed up fastboot for example - they did not fix it for years and even managed to cripple it further).

I am extremely sensitive to flickering, but I do not see anything wrong with A3 related to flicker. 720 pentile matrix is another story :)

Try to increase the brightness and use "dark theme" whenever available. They are easier on eyes. "High contrast" option in accessibility settings might be helpful as well. And last but not least, get your vision professionally checked, you may have more serious underlying problem which is "only" being exposed by this phone's screen.

I'd ask him to go see a therapist as well, honestly. Seems like he has more than just vision issues.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
I didn't mean it as an insult, I am serious. Healthy eyes (or with right corrective glasses) should not have such serious problems with low res screens. HD vs FHD difference is certainly visible and small details (tiny text) can be harder or even impossible to read on HD, but for "normally" sized text it should be more or less equal. HD AMOLED resembles paper ink with less sharp contours, so it's mostly a matter of "getting used to" than a real problem. This being said, I still wish it had FHD AMOLED :)
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] bibekmufc:
I for one meant it because he's on every thread whining and moaning about it. It's getting annoying at this point.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
Btw. those who believe that they are sensitive to PWM of A3 (every person has different threshold) - try using the device at 100% brightness for a while. At 100% there is no PWM involved.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
This might be helpful as well, not only for Mi A3, but many other AMOLED phones https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.js.oledsaver

Edit: this app definitely works, no flickering and you can dim your screen to basically any level you want. Highly recommended! Just set all the permissions, "basic physical brightness" to a safe value of 255 and you are good to go.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] Simran62:
Its been 1 month and i don't have any eye strain, don't don't really do extensive reading on my phone but ya i do read stuff on it like articles, so not that big of a issue for me
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
Many people don't notice it at all. Some feel that "something's different" and a few suffer. App mentioned above fixes it for those unlucky who see/"feel" the PWM flickering. Btw. this is a generic problem of majority of AMOLED panels. A3 is not unique, Pixels, Samsungs and other behave the same.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] :
It does not fix anything. Don't listen to those amateurs defending the worst display on the market. Don't get fooled, this smartphone is a "eye killer".
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
I tried to help you, PWM is the real thing for maybe 99% of phones out there. That app bypasses it. I won't discuss this topic with you anymore, you aren't interested in a discussion anyway.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] :
That is very good, because I'am tired of your attempts to downplay the issues of this disaster called MI A3. Btw the app does not work on this phone, but you probably did not even try it.

To anyone who takes my warning seriously : consider Motorola one Vision. It has advantages over A3 : high quality full HD plus display, no pwm flicker, optical stabilisation, NFC, water splash resistance and costs only 50Euro more.

[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] Nafiganado:
I buy the phones with IPS display to avoid this PWM problem. There a flickering if present happens on much higher frequencies...
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
That's true, IPS doesn't have PWM. But also it can't have true black colors, always on display, low(er) power consumption, higher contrast.. Hopefully manufacturers of OLED panels will finally realize that PWM should be used only if absolutely necessary and even then with much higher frequencies than today.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
Just for the fun, this is how PWM looks like. Taken by stock camera in pro mode 1/1000 shutter speed.

Low brightness - PWM

Medium brigthness - PWM

Low brightness - DC dimming (OLED Saver) - only VSYNC is visible
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
It seems to start at 80%. At 81%-100% the display looks the same at 1/1000s shutter.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] Nafiganado:
Well, that's where we have to make our choice ;)

If to choose between eyes health and deep black / contrast - I will choose first :)

And, btw, some IPS matrices have a very decent quality - comparable to OLED. Maybe more natural colors, btw.

Thank you for the photos of flickering - it's interesting to see 'alive'.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
Fortunately we can have both, deep blacks and healthy eyes :) As you can see, PWM can be bypassed quite easily.

I'm sure that there are high quality IPS panels, but I'm afraid that they are not used in budget phones.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] Nafiganado:
I wonder why Samsung ignores PWM problem... To my knowledge, their cellphones still do not have DC dimming support, including flagships.

Luckily, I never liked Samsung and only bought a couple of their cellphone many years ago. With no return :)
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
I guess that most people don't notice it (or they think that their eye discomfort is due to a different issue like blue light or increased contrast of OLED displays). Unless consumers won't complain, Samsung has no reason to switch to DC dimming, as it would require modification of the technology and that costs money. I don't like Samsung phones either, but PWM issue impacts almost all OLED displays, including Pixel or Xiaomi phones. :/ Also most reviewers ignore this point, the only site which measures PWM frequency for every reviewed phone is https://www.notebookcheck.net/.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] BubuXP:
I found this code in MIUI forums, it enables DC dimming on some devices with PWM dimming. Anybody tried if this works on Mi A3?

*#*#3225#*#*
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] debido666:
I can't tell the difference...
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] barth2:
A3 uses stock Android so probably not. But to verify someone needs to video the display at high speed.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
It needs also Kernel/ROM support and build.prop modification:

persist.displayfeature.dc_backlight.enable=true
persist.fod.modified.dc_status=true
persist.displayfeature.dc_backlight.threshold=610 (or some other value, I saw also 320)

I'm going to try it when I get home where I have access to another phone so I can quickly verify if it works.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
Sadly it doesn't work on stock Mi A3.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] Michall84:
Hello, you think that as Android 10 will be introduced option to set the color temperature? So far the colors are too saturated, which strains my eyes. Eyes do not hurt, but sometimes when I put the phone down, I have the impression that for a moment I see less sharp, I do not know whether it's the resolution or too much color contrast.

Maybe it's pwn fault? I don't even know how to check if that could be the reason
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
I don't think that color temperature tuning will come to stock Android. I'm quite sure that intensive colors do not cause eye strain. Lower resolution display and using extremely small text for reading might cause strain as eyes struggle to focus, but this probably isn't your case. PWM is known to cause eye strain even in people who do not "see" it. The verification and solution is simple - install this app and use it for a few days. Then stop using it again and compare your eye strain.
