I went with t-mobile $39.00 screen protector plan that covers the life of the phone where as I can have the screen protector changed daily for the life of the phone no questions asked.

The $39.00 was a sticker shock, but after 2 screens, I felt that the plan was justified and it gave me the security & piece of mind.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChristianKerr21:
Hello,

I'm a fairly novice phone user that is currently using the Samsung Galaxy J8 and I'm looking to upgrade, I love the Pixel software and camera but I prefer the design of other phones and their hardware.

I'm currently looking at the Redmi K20 (not pro) and Samsung Galaxy A70 as my main options with the Google Pixel 3 and 3a as my 'last resort' for lack of better words.

I was wondering if the process of downloading and installing Lineage OS differs between devices and, since it wipes data, if it is safer (or even possible, like I said, I'm not very knowledgeable about phones) to get Lineage OS on the phone before I put my sim card in.

I will also be putting on the Google Camera APK and I believe I've seen a video where the OnePlus 7 Pro was using a GCam not specifically made for it which led me to wonder how you are supposed to know which GCam is best for you, of course I will download the one specifically made for my phone but do I go through every other option until I find the best one too?

If I do put on Lineage OS which apps stay and which get removed/added? Will it affect the stock camera app?

Also, is it possible to get Google's 'Now Playing' feature on any Android phone?

Sorry if I have broken any rules or done something wrong, I'm new to this site but would like to be on here more often, thanks in advance.

[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] GuestD2465:
Since I have a carrier model of the Pixel 3a and Im stuck using it bootloader locked for the time being.

I still want to know what Google related stock packages that are pinging to servers can I uninstall via adb and still have a completely functional os. I'm doing this for the sake of privacy
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] Skittles9823:
You'd be better off installing pure AOSP on it then tbh.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] GuestD2465:
I would love to but again boot loader locked for the time being, I assume there is no work around for that
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] Skittles9823:
Depends on the carrier but you generally have to wait for a while for the unlock period to be granted.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] sic0048:
Is it even possible to remove system apps without root (and therefore without unlocking your bootloader)?

If it is a pre-installed user app you are considering removing, I don't think there is any risk in uninstalling any of them. If you find that uninstalling an app removes some feature that you want, simply reinstall it.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] mike.s:
Pretty sure the answer is NO! And even if you could, any change to the system partition is going to cause the boot checks to fail, and if the bootloader isn't unlocked, you're dead.

You want to disable, not remove, them.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] Naudiz:
Of course it is possible. The command is pm uninstall -k --user 0 <package name> and it uninstalls system apps on a per-user-basis, which means the /system/ partition is unaltered, but the app appears as uninstalled (not to be confused with frozen) for the current user. This stays in effect until you wipe the phone or decide to reinstall via pm install-existing <package name>

See more here: https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/

To answer OP's question: I have no such list, nor have I found any so far. But I would be interested in it as well if anybody knows more.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] mike.s:
First, making an app unavailable to a user isn't in anyway uninstalling it - it's still sitting there taking up space, from which the term bloatware came.

Second, that article is from 2017, and things have changed. A lot.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] Naudiz:
Tell that to the people who made the command pm uninstall. Please inform them that their command is wrong.

Yeah, it's taking up space in /system, a partition whose size you can't change anyways. It won't receive updates any longer though, which would take up space in /data, so in total you will save space in the long term.

Also the term bloatware is a lot more than just taking up storage space. It's about performance issues due to lots of apps running in the background.

It hasn't though. The command still works AFAIK. If you have any valid sources which say that it doesn't, please enlighten me. Just pointing out that the article is from 2017 is hardly enough.

Just an interesting discovery today with putting in my Project Fi sim card - works like a charm on my 7T device. Very happy with this discovery.

Hopefully, this helps other people if in doubt if this will work on 7T.

Do you get visual voicemail, spam call filtering, wifi calling?
[OnePlus 7T Guides, News, & Discussion] Zmajvitez:
Wifi calling is working, the other two I need to check. I'm currently in Australia so very happy I can get data this way with my 7T.

I will be going to Germany soon so I'll keep reporting on spam filtering and visual voicemail.
[OnePlus 7T Guides, News, & Discussion] hightech316:
VoLTE and visual voicemail.

Wish we weren't stuck with tmobile and had the network switching abilities.

Has anyone figured that out? Dialer codes and apps won't allow switching. Is it a software component ?
[OnePlus 7T Guides, News, & Discussion] Skripka:
It is Sprint. They don't allow anything other than devices in their IMEI inventory whitelist to provision and use their towers. The only 1+ device in the history of ever they allowed on their Network is the carrier and bootloader locked 7Pro5G.

The limitation is purely towerside due to Sprint being jerks.
[OnePlus 7T Guides, News, & Discussion] autosurgeon:
Give it time. Sprint may finally be going away if the merger with T-Mobile goes through. then it will be one service with slightly less sucky signal lol
[OnePlus 7T Guides, News, & Discussion] Skripka:
Last count there were 20 states suing to stop the merger...and even if it does go through, I'd expect the overhaul or Sprint's towers/backend to take years. Feasibly, they could flip a switch and just inventory whitelist all the TMo authorized handsets instantly with the flick of a switch....Or axe the inventory whitelist completely.

I was a Sprint customer for 20 years until this fall, switched to Visible (Verizon MVNO)...unless they axe all the fools who made the decisions for the last 2 decades, not much will change. Sprint after all tried for half a decade to push WiMax rather than LTE. My last handset with them (OPENUS PH-1), it took fighting for 10 calendar days to get them to add ONE IMEI to their whitelist that should have been there all along. With several Sprint reps telling me it couldn't be done--and reminding me about the Shiney carrier-locked Samsungs on sale.
[OnePlus 7T Guides, News, & Discussion] mammothjojo88:
How is visible? Thinking about get a separate line with them.
[OnePlus 7T Guides, News, & Discussion] Skripka:
I'll put it this way....with their Party Pay route, my bill is $25/month prepaid for one line with unlimited talk/text/data/hotspot; and it works with 1+7T which Sprint doesn't. The few caveats are:

-No VZW off-network-roaming

-CONUS+Alaska/Hawaii only, no US territories AKA Puerto Rico etc.

-and then there's potentially the big one....If your local tower is having high-congestion, your data traffic gets "deprioritised" greatly. Which can be a big thing in major metro areas/cities. This is a hyper-local thing though.

For anyone who lives in the VZW blanket of coverage and suburbia/rural land, it is quite the steal. My Far City is just small enough I don't get deprioritised.

Activation was quick and painless...although I had to request an iPhone SIM to get around an IMEI database thing early on with the 7T. Once activated pay your bill, and if you want out--don't pay it and you are done.

[OnePlus 7T Guides, News, & Discussion] gregfink83:
I tried it for a few days on my 7t. The lack of wifi calling did it in for me. They said it would work, but of course didn't. 2 of their techs and the website said it would. Long story short I complained and now their website was updated to show the lack of wifi calling on a OnePlus device. Unfortunately Verizon still uses a lot of cdma in my area which makes an LTE only phone a no go without WiFi calling.
[OnePlus 7T Guides, News, & Discussion] Skripka:
Hopefully not much longer. Verizon is shutting down CDMA at the end of 2019, AKA in a calendar month.

[Device Repair] LazzaRx:
Hello guys,

I tried to gain a root access yesterday on a Samsung Galaxy A510F and got it locked with a red FRP message.

Why did I want to gain a root access?

There was a text message deleted in the phone and I wanted to recover it for a police investigation (early stage, police don't want to ask carrier for data at the moment).

So, I read on stackoverflow that it was possible to get data from file '/data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db' and read it via sqlite client, post title (sorry, can't send links):

backup-full-sms-mms-contents-via-adb

I managed to root the phone by midnight, root access was OK, I could do adb shell and su command and, for example, cat device information from some file in /system/ directory.

Next day, I could not get the device authorised in adb. When I started adb server, I got device list with the phone but unauthorised. So, advices were to revoke usb debug devices, remove files from `~/.android/`, re-enable usb debug option and so on. It didn't work.

I noticed that WiFi was turned on but disabled from switching it on or off, in grey.

So I restarted the phone and it got bricked, with FRP message.

I see that solution is to flash the phone with stock firmware but in this case I feel that this might delete all data from phone, including mmssms.db file.

Am I right? I see on youtube how-tos that there is system.img flashed in Odin and later on a fresh Android is starting...

Is it possible to get the phone up and running but with the mmssms.db file untouched?

Can I connect my Amazfit GTR with my Mac Mini? Not sure theres any benefit but just wondered.
[Amazfit] lfom:
GTR, just like GTS, BIP and Verge lite are dumb watches with a closed operational system and no access to internal storage/data. If you connect it to a computer, it will only charge, as it is expected as the cradle has just two connections (no data).

[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] Zayatoshi:
Hello

I plan to buy a oneplus 7t. I am in France and the only model sold is the hd1903 8gb ram 128gb.

I would like to buy the hd1900 Chinese model.

This model has 256 GB of storage.

According to the technical characteristics, the hd1900 model has the same technical characteristics, especially at of the LTE bands.

It comes with an oxygen rom of the French language and playstore installed.

I have several small questions to ask you.

1 / is this version of oxygen a version benefiting from updates via OTA?

2/ Is this model perfectly suited for Europe?

3 / buying a Chinese version, must you install a global version of oxygen os ?

4 / to root later a Chinese version hd1900, it is done in the same way as the European version hd1903? Or should I install a particular firmware?

Thank you in advance for your replies.

cordially
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] ryantorch96:
Ola,

while i do not live in France, i can help answer some of your questions as i order also from china and has the same model ordered.

1. Check what rom they flashed on the device. mine shipped with the indian rom. U can flash EU rom as long as the EU rom version is higher than the currently installed. So dont update when u first boot up ur device

3. some sellers, they are flashing oxygen version before they shipped it. In my case, i flashed the global rom after i receive it as i noticed that i'm using indian version (has cloud storage option in gallery).

4. there shouldn't be any issue rooting the device later.. that's what i think :D
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] Zayatoshi:
thank you for your precise answer.

Coming from Xiaomi, I will start in the world of Oneplus.

To update in a version of Oxygen adapted to France and Europe.

Once you have downloaded the firwmare file, do you have to put the file on the phone in the update directory and force an update from the Oneplus settings?

Or should I use a particular software for this update?
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] ryantorch96:
Just put the whole rom in the root folder of the storage then update in the settings-system-system updates -"click gear icon" - local upgrade
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] Zayatoshi:
Thank you for your reply.

For example if the version of oxygen os installed is the Indian version and I want to install the global version. I just download the global version I put in the phone and update as you indicate?

Should it reset the phone if updated to a version of oxygen os that is not same as that installed on the op7t?
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] ryantorch96:
No need to reset,. Ur only problem is if the version of oxygen os installed is the latest. In that case look for the thread in guide section on how to flash

[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] Zayatoshi:
Thank you for your reply.

But it is unlikely that this oneplus7T is equipped with the latest version 1.0.0.6 released a few days ago. I would normally have a newer version to install.

3 last questions:

1 / In my case in France, it is better to use a global firmware (faster update?) Or a version of the firmware EU (European)

2 / Oxygenupdater is a useful utility later for future updates?

3/ And can we make updates via Oxygenupdater if the oneplus 7T is rooted?

Thank's
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] ryantorch96:
1. Looks like global recieve faster updates, dunno what benefit EU firmware has as i'm not from there

2. Yes, for global 10.0.6, i have used oxygen updater

3. Oxygen updater will detect if ur rooted and will advice u to download and install the full rom.

[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] morback:
Hi, also French, I received my OP7T 128GB beginning of this week and as far as I can tell everything is fine. I unlocked the bootloader easily, I updated OOS through integrated OTA system as OOS was already flashed. I did a reset after the update (just a bit paranoid :D).

I'm still trying to root it as I couldn't achieve it yesterday. I fastbooted the phone with a magisk patched boot.img but then I couldn't install magisk from magisk manager. I begin to think my phone is actually with international rom and not EU. I have to check again but now I'm stuck with my OP5T as I don't have that much time to tweak my new phone.

I bought my OP7T on Gearbest and it's Chinese 1900 variant, but it's running Oxygen OS. I assume that it was manually flashed to use Oxygen OS. How can I determine is it global or european software? Now I have 10.0.7.HD65AA

And can convert it to 1930, so system info would indicate it's 1930?
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] anzial:
10.0.7.HD65AA could be indian or global rom, EU is something like HD65AB. Indian Rom has some cloud storage from oneplus so if you don't have that, you have international rom.

I don't think you can convert to 1903 (there's no 1930), it's most likely some hardwired value that firmware just displays.
