[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] iceepyon:
Samsung will probably continue to provide security patches for the Note 8 running on Pie anyway in the future. So it should be fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] MystaMagoo:
just getting an update today ---> N950FXXS8DSK1
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Anonymously_Unknown:
That's just the monthly patch. I don't anticipate an Android 10 update for even the S8, as Samsung is in the business of selling new phones.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] MystaMagoo:
Yep

Was just elaborating on the security patch release.

I doubt we will get A10 for our N8.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Anonymously_Unknown:
The Open Handset Alliance stipulates that manufacturers should support firmware updates for (Android) devices for the first 18 months. The Note 8 is older than that. Since our (international) Note 8's get the security updates directly from Samsung, we can continue to expect only the monthly security patches. Carrier-branded Note 8's are at the mercy of the respective carriers for the security updates.

Personally, I don't see a benefit to switch to a Note 9 to get this update (from a hardware perspective).

I'd probably do a Note 10 in 2020 because I feel my Note 8's internal battery will stop holding charge then, and screen-burn in may be an issue at that point. My Note 8 is still in mint condition, so I'm trying to find a fault with it .

Samsung can always argue that they migrated us from 7.1.1 to Pie (and are still giving us security patches).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] noidodroid:
Very Cool! I read up a bit. Who knows if it is true or not. IF so I might just keep my trusty old s8+ which rocks btw instead of getting a note 10+ or a s20 just yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Anonymously_Unknown:
Samsung does. Omitting the Note 10 from all published list of devices for an Android 10 release would be a good indication.

Right now, I'd jump ship and get the Note equivalent of the S20 Ultra, only for the 100x camera, but the screen is too big to fit my average pocket, and the price is currently out of my reach.

Thanks for your answers !

[General Questions and Answers] Lcsglvr:
Hi,

I have the opportunity to buy Pixel 4 from Australia (good price). I live in the USA. I have a USA Sim Card using Google Fi network.

I will update with "EDIT: Addition Q::"

Think I know but want some experts to weigh in !!

Concerns:

1) Will it work on Google Fi's USA network -- i.e.,

work on CDMA and GSM and over the other US

carriers? 4g sould be fine, yes? But what about 3g?

2) Will I receive USA-based Google updates, if I have a USA Sim Card yet phone is from Australia or is something there different that prevents this (e.g., some hardware or software prevents US-based Google updates).

Thank you!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] geeMc:
Now, I've read that the compact IV has less RAM memory than the Touch diamond. Over at the following site they say that the Compact IV has 128MB, while the touch diamond has 192MB.

http://www.gsmarena.com/t_mobile_mda_compact_iv_mda_vario_iv-review-252.php

Is this true? If so, how is the gap in performance between them?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Spawn12:
Ermmm i dont think anyone can really answer that question to be honest...seeing as the Compact IV hasnt even been released...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] geeMc:
True enough tbh, but you'll never know until you try. Especially when this makes the difference in chosing my phone.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Spawn12:
Well then its better to wait till the Compact has been released onto the market until then no one will really know.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] chris-c:
I've got a fault with my T-mobile branded Vario 3/Kaiser and I've got them agree to exchange my phone. I've got to give them my old phone and they'll give me a "brand new" phone. I'm guessing this is actually a refurb but i dont care.

What should I do to clean my phone before they get it?

I can't do anything via USB as the usb part is broken hence the replacement.

Cheers.

ChrisC
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Mikulec:
do a hardreset.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] starmena:
And incase you don't know what a hardreset is:

You get to it by tapping >> Start >>> Settings >> Systems > Clear Storage or you could have searched but here's your answer ;)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] RizwanKhan:
You don't mention it but if you flashed any roms/spl's/radio's than you are going to need to revert your device back to the t-mobile rom/radio/spl before returning. These things can be done from the sd card so even if your usb port is broken you are still not SOL. :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] chris-c:
I don't think I need to revert it back to standard I just didnt want to leave all my contacts on it in a easy to view format. I know with data recovery software anyone can do it but its just personal preference.

T-Mobile were meant to send me the phone today but its happening tomorrow. Basically i get a new body, no battery, no stylus etc. I just give the UPS delivery guy my old phone and he gives me a new one.

If they get it back and comment on software on it they can do a funny run :)

Thanks people. I didnt realise about the hard reset. I did it using the softkeys.
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] Throcc:
Hi,

I was looking to buy a P10 new as my new phone. I am hoping to get a couple of years out of it. I just wanted to know if it was worth it to buy this phone now when it's already 2 almost 3 years old. I'm planning on flashing stock on it with OpenKirin, is that the best idea or is there a different or better stock rom out there? Are there any major problems with it I should know? Any input or advice would be greatly appreciated!!
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] majaczos:
Do they still make new P10s? I'd look for some newer flagships like P20.
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] irony_delerium:
Admittedly an older device, but still unlockable (you can still find them running EMUI 5 on eBay and the like, and old stock is likely to be running that as well - check the software version!), cheap to repair if it gets damaged, and unlike the vast majority of newer flagships, it's not a gigantic device. (There is something to be said for a 5" display sometimes.)

I've got two of them; one got wedged into a car door and bent without the display breaking, still working, though it needs a new rear cover.

If you find it for <$125 USD, it's probably worth it. Much more and I'd be hesitant.
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] TbiTw:
The only reason i would go for it is if i really want a huawei notchless small display.
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] tangmubuddy:

[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] Throcc:
Thanks guys for all your replies it really helps knowing what i'm getting myself into! Just one more question about OpenKirin. I really hate EMUI so i'm gonna flash a stock rom, is OpenKirin the best one to do that with or should I go with another rom?

[Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Yemble:
I concur, especially since there will shortly be a flood of these phones in circulation thanks to the 50% off Black Friday deals currently on offer.

While I am waiting for my RN8P to arrive, I have a few points that I would like clarifying, if that's OK...

1) Was your upgrade Global MIUI to Global Xiaomi.eu, it not what was it?

2) Have you verified that this particular TWRP can backup and restore correctly?

I am currently running Xiaomi.eu on a RN7P and am very happy with it, which is why I want to go the same way with the RN8P. Hopefully, by the time that phone arrives, things will have moved along a bit with regard to TWRP development. There is currently a lot of noise around bricking MediaTek chipsets, which has spooked me slightly, but I am trying to build up confidence prior to taking the plunge. I'm sure that you can understand :laugh:

I may be back with more questions closer to Christmas ;)
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers] klurosu:
My change to xiaomi.eu rom v11.0.2 has been a complete success, I couldn't be happier :)

yes, I can make backups in menu recovery, although I have not tried to restore any.

This mediatek chip is a real beast, no doubt it will give much to talk about, even if xiaomi release a new RMN8Pro with an SD 730G... we both know that the mediatek is quite better :)
