[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Tom_Tom:
Issues of that kind may be a hint for a dead battery, this should be ruled out first. Note: In that case your phone might not boot even if connected to a charger!

After that is ruled out, one should try to install LineageOS 16 or later following the official installation routine from scratch.

I been reading other threads and i cannot find an answer. I even called att and they were no help.

I installed the windows live for windows mobile version 10.6.0034.0800 fixed.

When i'm using this messenger, how i'm being billed. Data? or Text message?

I have a unlimited data plan, so i'm hoping i'm not being charged per message. Can anyone help me with this question.

Thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Alemaker:
The Tilt has Oz Messenger on it which has WLM, AOL, and Yahoo which connects via their phone network and it counts as SMS for every message you send/receive. With the Windows Live Messenger cab, it depends actually, if you are connecting through the ATT network then it's considered SMS but if you connect to the net Wi-Fi, no charges except whatever you pay for Wi-Fi (like pay hotspots)

Alemaker
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] knight2424:
I'm not using the oz messenger with the provided windows live. I'm using another version of the messenger that i found in another thread.

10.6.0034.0800 fixed. version
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Alemaker:
best way to go then. The Oz Messenger only connects through the ATT network whereas the Windows Live Messenger cab you installed can use either the ATT network or Wi-Fi.That's what I'm using also. Here's another little catch. If you connect using the ATT network(which is then an SMS for each message) if you start a conversation with someone internationally, you are charged international text rates.:eek:

Found that out the hard way when a friend in Germany started a convo with me!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gai-jin:
Seriously? I assumed the live messenger cab would use the data connection, not SMS. Does it really send via SMS when on network and wifi when off?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] knight2424:
Well....

I'm screwed, thanks for your help.

anyone else ?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Alemaker:
Unless they changed it really recently, I tested it-on ATT=SMS, I barely text anyone and when my friend I.M.'ed me from Germany, all those showed on my bill as international SMS-on Wi-Fi=no charges:)

That's why I dumped Oz Messenger
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] knight2424:
are you still using the windows messenger cab?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Alemaker:
Yup I'm using the exact one you listed. I just try not to use it while I'm on the ATT network cuz I only have the 200 message plan but it doesn't matter to me as alot of times I'm in a area with Wi-Fi so I just disconnect the ATT data connection and connect via Wi-Fi
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Alemaker:
It's easy to check,

Just start a conversation with someone using Windows Live Messenger on your phone and write down the exact time and date then check your next bill. All data and texts are time stamped on the bill.:cool:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] knight2424:
So as long as i use wifi i dont have to pay right?

and how do u disconnect the att connection?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Alemaker:
correct; and just click on the 3G or Edge icon and a small menu will show up with a disconnect option button, if you are using a cooked ROM, then open Comm Manager directly and disconnect the data connection.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] knight2424:
K....

Thanks

Windows Live using SMS?!? I don't use MSN messinger very often, but I don't remember it using SMS, it uses data.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] knight2424:
the version of the messenger that i have i believe is the one the one that comes with the new windows mobile 6.1. I know that the messenger that came with my tilt uses sms messages instead of data. I guess i will be using OCTRO TALK.

Any other messenger suggestions?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Alemaker:
As this seems to need clarification, I spoke with ATT data tech support and per ATT, when you use an I.M. client directly ( not going to the net and using a web based I.M.) it is billed as I.M. which is text.

If you connect to the net with MediaNet and then go to WL Mobile website or Yahoo website etc. and use I.M. web-based, it is data, but directly connecting with the WLM cab or the proprietary Oz I.M., it is billed as text even though it uses the MediaNet connection.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Deleted member 783283:
ATT Tilt here and using the latest WL (10.6.0034.0800 fixed) and .0600 before it. On an unlimited data connection (PDA Personal Max I believe).

I use it regularly and never see any text message usage - I have read numerous postings that back that up? I'm not saying I don't believe what Alemaker is saying, I just find it hard to believe. I've just never had it use my text messages and neither have any of the other folks in my office (7 of us here with Tilt's and all using with IM).

NOTE - If you use the built in OZ IM, yes it will use sms text messages. This is not Windows Live though. It is an app that allows you to connect to the major IM networks. WL is designed to use an internet connection (IE Data, Wifi, etc.).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Alemaker:
That's fine-I have seen billed as text them from international I.M.'s and to be honest, the CSR's at ATT gave me conflicting answers themselves, one said data, one said text and one even said billed same as e-mail(data). So that's why I contacted data tech support. And if it truly does turn out to use data-all the better. Just stating what I have seen. I don't I.M. mobile alot to begin with but just I.M.'ed someone using the WLM cab app and will look at my next bill
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] GWelker62:
I agree... What the others are saying about Windows Live Mobile (replaced Mobile MSN) I can't agree with. Windows Live syncs my Hotmail and has a mobile MSN messinger client. And so far I haven't seen it use SMS for IMs.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] scotchua:
if you are using that version of WLM then i can garuntee you that you are using data and not text. There are several clients that support WLM including oz messenger that use texts, but the windows mobile version you described definitely uses data.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jackleung:
I second that. The WLM comes w/ WM is definitely using data. The "IM" that comes w/ ATT Tilt probably use SMS and it's how ATT suck yr $$$.

To verify, just turn off the GSM and use wifi/usb/bt to get on the internet. Send a msg w/ WLM and it should get thru
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] knight2424:
I just put my cellphone in airplane mode, and used wifi to send some messages with the windows live messenger. It worked. Also, i'm using the battery status cab. If anyone is not familiar with this cab, it gives you the option of keeping track of your outgoing/incoming data count and sms count. According to this program, I used data and not SMS.

But the moment of truth is going to be next month when i get my bill. I really hope i dont get screwed because i'm using the messenger. I hate the fact that i really like this stupid messenger.:rolleyes:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] moegdaog:
paying att for a data plan, especially an unlimited data plan is one of the stupidest things you can do...be smart, USE WIFI AT ALL TIMES IF YOU NEED TO USE THE INTERNET ON YOUR PHONE AKA KAISER. Set up a wireless connection at your house with a linksys wifi router and wala! free internet from your own house on your kaiser. At work or at college use there wifi servers for FREE. Why pay att for internet for barely using internet on your phone occasionally...when you can use wifi for free occasionaly in your own house or your job or your college/Universities internet. I learned never to pay for internet since i had hermes, and i would even used wifi on my old school treo 600 and 750 if they had wifi. Basically theres a reason why you have a wifi radio in your phone...USE IT TO YOUR ADVANTAGE...and always buy a phone wit wifi, next to touch screen...wifi is the next great attribute of your phone.

ps. Get rid of the OZ aim clientprogram immdately...remove it from your programs ASAP. Theres a reason OZ is preinstalled t your kaiser, its a sneaky money maker prog that att uses to make you waste your tex messaging limit and make you go overyour limit with you not even knowing it. Those sneaky turds know that young people especially teens use AIM just as much as text messaging. Theres also a reason why u cant connect to OZ unless ur connect to the ATT data internet. No possibility in using the program with wifi, i learned this on the first day i tried using it...so dont be an idiot and just use palringo or the dozens of oother aim client progs if you dont wanna be cheated out of money from those turds
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] knight2424:
You make some good points. But I do use the internet on my cellphone ALL THE TIME, EVERYWHERE. When i'm at home, i use wifi to speed my connection. When i'm at school, i use wifi too. But i pay for the data plan because i need to use the internet on the go, regardless of where i am, or if there is a hot-spot near by.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] GilesTheAlmighty:
Windows Messenger is DEFINITLY data, well the build you specified anyway, would be a nightmare for ATT to try and watch all MSN conversations and log them as text messages ..
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] GWelker62:
This may work for you, but it definitely don't work for me. I am in too many places on a daily bases where I need internet access, and the place I'm at doesn't have it. It could cost me literally 100s of dollars a day if I can't get access to the internet.

You are so cynical.... but so very true. :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] knight2424:
All the evidence and comments point to the messenger being data.... LEts hope it is.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mugglesquop:
I've been using Windows Live Messenger for about a year, various builds, and it has always been data traffic not SMS.

NICEEEEEEEEEEEEE:D:D:D:D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jallenclark:
I am pretty sure it is clear now but I tested the same thing and WLM uses data for sure. I message about 4000 or easily more a month for work purposes. I am never on wifi, always on ATT's network and I have never been charged for a text message.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] knight2424:

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jallenclark:

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Alemaker:
Well,

I am glad other members have contributed as I did state that I hardly use Messenger on Mobile but happy that it is data. The weird thing is the international text billing I got when I only I.M'ed my overseas friend. Oh well maybe that was just a fluke and good luck-and definetly DON'T USE the Oz I.M.-I found that out the hard way too!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] knight2424:
Thank you for your help. I'm sure this thread will help answer this question to other members.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Alemaker:

Sorry about the formatting but it indeed is data using the Windows Live Mobile application found on various threads here at XDA!!!!

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] none24:
My dad dropped and cracked his Note 4. I need to boot it up to get the data off it.

For some reason it wont boot to recovery, it gives me the blue text but it just boot loops after. I cannot get it to boot to the OS either.

I can get to download mode, i already tried flashing the firmware through odin. After doing so, it goes to recovery to install the system update, but then freezes 1/4th the way through and boot loops again.

I cant flash a custom recovery because the FRP lock stops me.

The only thing i have access to without a problem is Download mode. Can anyone please help me get this thing booted so i can recover the data?

Thank you!

Hi there!

From the Ultra debloat list provided by LegendM, I created (and started to document) my own list of packages to uninstall for user 0. It's totally reversible.

The list starts with packages that I re-enable (in case they were disabled) to get something stable and functioning, then proceeds to uninstall everything I do not use. There are some thing that were hard to figure out, so I started (late) to comment them, explaining what they do if it's not explicit.

Please comment here or on the Github gist if you know something that should be re-enabled or disabled. For that, I would need the package name and a short description as a comment. I'll update the gist directly! :good:

Debloat list: https://gist.github.com/gsurrel/40cc506ac7e31134a87be4ba01a71103

Comments

The camera works completely except not the "AR Emoji" thingy, though)

The Gallery works completely

The Phone/SMS work as expected

Disclaimer

I'm not responsible if this script eats your laundry or triggers anything unwanted. However, if it does, please report the problem. As far as I tested, "it works for me" so don't expect a full-time 5+ years maintenance :D

Little documentation

Uninstalling an app is as follows:

adb shell "pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.chrome"

Reinstalling is as follows:

adb shell "cmd package install-existing com.android.chrome"

It depends on your system, exactly, but it boils down to:

Download and install the Android Command line tools: https://developer.android.com/studio/#command-tools

Open a command-line prompt and use ADB: https://developer.android.com/studio/command-line/adb

Run the shell script I provide (it's a bash script): https://duckduckgo.com/?q=run+bash+script

It is very possible the Feed is not on that launcher. You may need to install a third party launcher to do that.
[Realme X2 Pro Questions & Answers] MixEvo:
i got it working perfectly but it took some time to get it to work right.

i am using nova/nova prime and downloaded the nova google companion apk from teslacoils website.

this is what i did in this order:

download nova(and nova prime if you have it)

use adb to uninstall the stock launcher(com.oppo.launcher)for swipe gesture controls to work you can only use the back on left or right bottom selection

use adb to uninstall the oem browser (com.nearme.browser)

use adb to uninstall athena (com.coloros.athena)<--- once you remove this when going to recent app you will have to swipe them away manually to close the X will not close them

use adb to uninstall (com.oppo.quicksearchbox)

then go to google and type in nova google companion (should see a link to download the apk) install it

give nova/nova prime/companion all autostart/background running permissions

it should work after those steps are followed. also the good new is once the athena is removed notifications come through without issue for 3rd party apps (facebook/instagram/snapchat etc) just have to give all permissions to display (autostart is only allowed for 5 non system apps) bust since athena is gone even the apps that i dont have autostarting are coming through without delay.

hope this helps!!!
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] brainwash123:
I've been trying various ways to mirror the phone to the TV:

- project to Windows 10 (tried 3 devices) - phone reboots or does not connect at all

- mirror to FireTV (Miracast?) - phone reboots or does not connect at all

- EzCast dongle - didn't seem to work, now the dongle is fully broken so cannot test it anymore

- USB-C hub with HDMI output - apparently there's no support for USB DP

- scrcpy via wireless adb - works but the phone heats up a lot and is a "bit" inconvenient
