HMS vs GMS

Huawei Just need to believe in their products and make them available all over. We don't mind buying good gadgets as long as they have good specs. We can sideload apps. Price is all that matters
[Huawei Developers] xchatter:
No. HMS will have some alternative apps with similar functionality.
[Huawei Developers] prooigor:
In China yes
[Huawei Developers] Freeje:
Just found out that in Germany they have come up with an app called 'appsearch'. It allows you to install FB, Twitter and other popular apps.

---------- Post added at 12:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:46 AM ----------

Installed it the other day but the number of Apps are limited. Only the more popular ones are there. The search function does not work when I tried it. It is supposed to search for apps in sites such as apkmirror. Maybe it works in other regions.
[Huawei Developers] SunnyKoay:
Huawei is the best phone
[Huawei Developers] xchatter:
Hi Freeje,

We were talking about gms specific apps(for example Google Maps or Youtube). FB, Twitter, etc. are not such apps.
[Huawei Developers] Freeje:
Yes, they're there too. Don't know if you can simply install them.
[Huawei Developers] hypafly:
Currently using Huawei P30 Pro. The AppGallery from Huawei seems to offer faster updates compared to play store. From there, I can update all my Huawei apps including HMSCORE and other system apps which can't be found on playstore. Although some apps are missing, it's still a great place to get some exclusive apps you can't find on playstore.

Huawei p30 pro

I need this as I had never used a HUAWEI device before and plus it comes without GAPPS version before how the HUAWEI is coping without GAPPS and how is it latest Huawei Store coming up to beat Google Play Store.Want to do some testing according to it.

Thanks in advance.
[Huawei Developers] xchatter:
Hi Freeje,

Unfortunately it is more complicated.

Play Store, Gmail, Maps, syncing of contacts and other google apps require gms in order to run properly. GMS can't be installed like normal apps. For example the Huawei Mate 30 Pro(I also use this) to this date have no stable solution of having gms properly installed.

For most devices we have methods of getting gms working and certified, but a lot of solutions get patched quickly. Hopefully Google can loosen up a bit their restrictions in order to make our lives easier and also to get more customers for their apps. Otherwise everyone will try harder and harder not to use their apps until they are no longer needed. :)

Huawei is technology beast.

Huwaei brings great features to its flagship smartphone like mate 30 pro, OLED 3D curved display, 7nm kirin 990 processor. I really never used any Huawei prouct but this beast I want via giveaway.

[General Questions and Answers] Eshan.Agalawatta:
I have Samsung Galaxy A10s. Now its dead.No power on.I tried lots of combinations.I don't want anybody to get the data, messages or media files which is in internal memory.But as its not charging,and not showing drive after connect through USB to PC, I can't delete data directly. How can I delete media files specially from internal phone memory from my dead phone?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
If the device will not power on and will not charge then it is not possible for anyone to retrieve any sensitive data from the device unless they used some very complicated hardware tools and software methods to access the device.

If you aren't going to repair the device, break it into pieces using a hammer then burn all of the pieces, no one will ever be able to retrieve data from the device if you do this, not even the best government agencies could retrieve data from the device.
[General Questions and Answers] Eshan.Agalawatta:
I bought it one month ago with 12 month warranty.If I will hand to samsung authorized repair center for repair phone,will it be safe?:rolleyes::rolleyes:.thanks a lot
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
If they are a reputable business, yes, it should be safe. They will probably just replace the motherboard, that is what most shops do because it is easier than trying complicated methods to recover the device because recovery methods aren't guaranteed to work. Therefore, it is easier to just replace the hardware than to take the extra time to troubleshoot and repair the hardware that you have.

Besides, if your device will not charge, cannot be recognized by PC or makes no sound when connecting to PC, will not power on in any kind of way, will not boot to download mode, recovery mode, safe mode or system mode, your device is hard bricked. This is probably because your device has a locked bootloader and you tried flashing TWRP or you tried flashing a firmware from a different model number than what you have. These are the most common reasons users hard brick their devices. If this is what you did, you will not be able to repair the device, your best option is to replace the motherboard.

If you can find some YouTube videos that give detailed instructions on how to disassemble and replace the motherboard in devices that have your specific model number, you should be able to buy an aftermarket motherboard and use the video to replace it yourself instead of paying a large amount of money to a shop to do this when you should be able to do it yourself.
[General Questions and Answers] Eshan.Agalawatta:
Thanks again for your answer.

The shop is authorized by Samsung.they told me the data which in phone will lost when I asked to repair.But I didn't give phone to them yet.

And I didn't try flashing TWRP or any other thing.only I used for calling and log Facebook.:crying::crying::crying:

What can I do?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
If you can get to download mode and if your bootloader is unlocked, you can try flashing TWRP then use TWRP to create a backup of your data.

If the device won't boot at all to any of its modes, there is probably nothing you can do.
[General Questions and Answers] Eshan.Agalawatta:
No.Can't get download mode,even a phone is not turn on.Not identify by computer by connecting through USB
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
It's dead then, there is nothing you can do.
[General Questions and Answers] Eshan.Agalawatta:
Thanks and wish you a happy new year,I went to repair center,They replaced motherboard and gave to me.

can I know the imei number will change after replace motherboard,or any other defect to phone like seal damage?

Here they gave me what they replaced.Are now data is safe?

[General Questions and Answers] Thookie:
Hey guys,

I wanted to flash a custom ROM on my Mi 9 SE, for this I installed TWRP (3.3.1-3) and Booted into it normaly. After wiping the phone I mistakenly restarted it and now the phone instaltly goes into fastboot mode without a chance to enter TWRP. I tryed to reflash TWRP but it did not work. I can't use adb as the phone only enters fastboot mode. is there another way to enter recovery mode? I also found the software MiFlash from Xiaomi but I only get the error "can not found file flash_all.bat"

Edit: Got it to work now, this is what I did:

Download MiFlash (from here: c[DOT]mi[DOT]com/thread-1329226-1-1.html [can't use links as new user ¯\_(ツ)_/¯])

flash stock ROM (from here: xiaomistockrom[DOT]com/xiaomi-mi-9-se [same])

it did not work with the stock ROM found on Xiaomis Website but only with the one linked.
[General Questions and Answers] Sachin:
Did you try booting into recovery using hardware button combo? That might help, I guess.
[General Questions and Answers] Thookie:
Yes i did and it did not work, i now got it tho and will update my post with the resolution shortly.

[Sable] sikittle:
Hey

I'm trying to get the HP iPaq 614c in a usable state....what I'm finding is that the Smart-Touch scroll wheel is great, nice and quick and you can be productive.

But, because it is only one way (up <-> down), and because it usually functions as the equivalent of a "tab" key press (if on a PC) you can't use it for moving around in a text block.

You have to use the up down left right method by hovering over 5, then moving your thumb in the appropriate direction...however, the repeat rate on this is slow slow slow......

Its enough to not make me keep the 614c because it means editing SMSs or emails or even just random text fields like URLs is painful, particularly when you make a mistake.

Does anyone know any registry fields to change this?

I've tried the accessible settings in Settings > Buttons > Up/Down Control but they have no effect.

Thanks!

Si
[Sable] saxxon:
yes i would be interested in this too.
[Sable] sikittle:
I've searched the registry but couldn't fnd anything applicable. I found one key which was reported in another forum, but it had no effect.
[Sable] EREZYAD:
WAY NOT TAP (WITH FINGER) ON THE AREA AND THEN MOVE L/R :confused:

I THINK YOU NEED TO HAVE "SLOW" MOVMENT FOR SOME APPS/FILES :confused:
[Sable] sikittle:
well that is why I do, like you say. I guess slow movement may be useful for some things.

When you're in the middle of a text message or email though, it can take days to scroll through a message.

Its also very hard to pinpoint the cursor to the right area with out using the stylus (i.e. with your finger nail).....

...part of the beauty of the 614c for me is the phone keypad which allows T9 input (T9 input being super fast compared to any qwerty input with two fingers), but when you can't edit the message very easily it becomes annoying.
[Sable] EREZYAD:
Im sorry to say that I don’t know/suffer from your prob

not that I do want problems, but the thing is that all text is within the bounds of the screen (for me on long doc/mail....) so the only need for fast thing is up down

maybe you have a different setting that lets you see "out of the screen" ~ the need for fast L/R scrolling :confused:

as for ie tx9 I don’t use this method so ….. I disabled the default settings of having it on first thing :D

for ie address I use pie-plus app ,it has within it's settings option for quick words/address and finger scrolling or open more then one tab etc.

but you asked so I will give you the solution;)

please backup your device

open a reg edit like this free one

http://www.phm.lu/products/PocketPC/RegEdit/

then go to HKLM/software/tegic/et9/ime

tap on D-WORD "carrierDefaultTextMode"

set value from "0" to "1"

enjoy:)
[Sable] sikittle:
for l/r scrolling, what i'm talking about is when you're editing a text message or an email, they can get quite long. so say you're editing a message, then you realise you need to add a word at the start or edit a word in the middle, it takes ages to scroll to the middle or the beginning using the l/r scrolling on the smart touch wheel....and when i say ages, i mean ages, at least compared to how quickly it works on the smartphones with a hard nav joystick/wheel.

it has nothing to do with whether you can see the text on the screen. its to do with moving the caret/cursor/pointer around within the text.

thanks for that registry entry...i did try it, but it made no difference. IE still uses abc method.

i may look at that pie-plus ting though, looks like it may help.
[Sable] EREZYAD:
works for me :confused::o

did you save the reg by "exit " turn off the device for 10 sec then SR ?

:confused:

any way i will also try to look into the scroll....
[Sable] sikittle:
it changes the default method for applications like Internet Explorer for you? not just SMS composing?

I'll try it again...
[Sable] sikittle:
hey yeah

that did work, thanks!! (making the default mode actually work as default in all circumstances)

i just typed it wrong.
[Sable] EREZYAD:
told you so :) i will also look into the wheel thing im now into helping with this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=403736

more option etc. mainly 4 ipaq 600 ;)
[Sable] sikittle:
hmmmm.....do you know how to make that keyboard fix work even when you install a 3rd party keyboard.

I was trying to install a finger friendly keyboard for the times when you have to type in passwords or other such delicates, but if i do that after having made that modification it loses it as the default.

Hello,

Recently i've root and install the lightrom nfe port on android 9.0 and wasn't aware of the snapchat issue, i know that few people are interested about the app but it's very important for me :crying: . Is there a solution, the issue come from the rom itself or the root? I'm wondering to downgrade to oreo, if it's the only way, wich rom can you advise me?

Thank in advance for your answer .
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] xHookman:
Hi I have same problem I searched and tried a lot of potential solutions without resolve it, the problem come from the rom (all roms based on Note Fe have this problem)

I also contact Snapchat """support"""" (because it was very bad) and I talk with a bot a lot of time always saying that it's my fault if my account is locked (Wow, excelent...)

And recently with a human who send me a copied text who say me that is my fault if my account is locked (so, it's perfect)

So I don't know what phone do you use ?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tankkarer:
Hi all,

I'm looking for a new smartphone for everyday use within £300 but no more than that. My main requirements are:

At least 5.5" Screen

Easy Bootloader unlock

LineageOS Support

Decent Selfie/Front Camera

Decent storage (32GB/64GB)

Privacy Screen available for such model

I have done some research and found a couple smartphones that are almost suitable for me.

The list is as follow:

Pocophone F1 - To unlock Pocophone F1 bootloader, I need to register somewhere and wait between 7 to 14 days for some unlock code or something like this. I hate DRM solutions and tactics like this and I'm also a big fan of Open Source so this doesn't fly well with me. Otherwise, it would be suitable.

Moto G7 - This smartphone have became Official for LineageOS recently so I have digged around and it looks like a lottery ticket as unlocking the device is flimsey and you can easily brick your device.

Any recommendations ?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] veenaprem:
Moto G7 is a joke infront of POCO F1. POCO F1 kills Moto G7 in ever way. If you already have given request for bootloader unlock to any Xiaomi phone before with a mi account, you can use it to unlock bootloader instantly of POCO F1, you can borrow someones or even the 14 days wait is worth infront of buying G7.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] lmulli:
I have the G7 Plus which I got when it first came out. Nice phone, very stock android with some good Motorola additions. The camera has OIS, which is something that the Poco doesn't have of course. Having said that, when I got my Poco, the G7 Plus got thrown in a drawer and hasn't been used since.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] guhvanoh:
I'm guessing you're British since you're using £. If that's correct you shouldn't have to wait more than three days to get your unlock code with the Poco. The frustrating bit will be finding a PC/laptop with USB 2 ports only. If you do get the Poco, you'll need a computer with USB 2 ports, a USB 2 hub will work, and make sure it doesn't have the new Ryzen processor. After that you'll be laughing all the way to the bank... Unlocking, rooting, and flashing is a doodle on the Poco...

As the titel says..

Its been a few years since ive done anything like this, so dont really know what i need to do now..

Checking for digest files

Skipping digest check: no digest file found

vendor partition is not existed, exit ota!!

Updater process ended with Error: 7

Error installing zip file

I have no idea if its even possible to do this if i need other updates first ect.

Kinda rookies now haha..

Iv'e searched forum for help dunno if ive searched wrong or not, but couldnt find any help.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Pierre02:
You have to install version 5.1.4 based on Oreo 8.1.0 and boot up the phone to enable vendor partition. Then you will be able to flash the latest Pie OS. If you want a faster way, you can use the 9.0.9 EDL package, but you will lose all data

Well i had a friend that said i could just install 9.0.9 firmware, well now ive ended up witj a phone which i cant enter.. Can still open fastmode and twrp but i cant add files on phone.. Any ideas on how to fix this mess?

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] GoodSoul:
So they changed the partition layout with Oreo? I am asking because I currently have the exact same problem. ;)

Currently stucking on 7.1.1 with the same errormessage. I will try to upgrade to Oreo first and then move over to Pie. Thanks. :)
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Pierre02:
Yes, with the version 5.1.5 Project Treble was adopted and it requires a new vendor partition. That partition was created with 5.1.4, so if you are on a version lower than 5.1.4 you will need to install that version, boot once (the repartitioning is made during Android boot, not during the install) and then you will be able to upgrade to latest Pie version.

If you want to upgrade in one step, you can use EDL tool, but you lose all your data. Anyway, I advice you to do so because a format is a good operation when upgrading the Android version
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] GoodSoul:
I assume I can then also move directly to 9.0.xx, right? Sorry, I forgot that the OP5 got Android 10! :)
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Pierre02:
You can install the latest ROM ONLY if you are on a version that is 5.1.4 or newer. If you are on an older version, you have to first upgrade to 5.1.4 and then the newer version (Android 10 will be out in the next months)
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] GoodSoul:

Update 1 - Waiting for the repair set

The corresponding packaging material was sent out yesterday, December 18th, 2019. It should arrive today or tomorrow. Since I have not received a tracking for the packaging, I am unfortunately unable to tell you where it is currently located.

OK contrary to Google's statement that the packaging should be with me within 48 hours, it arrived on September 20th, late afternoon, making it 72 hours. I had ordered it on December 18th, at about 09.30 am. I suspect that this is due to the parcels arriving before Christmas, because they arrived by DHL - who are always overworked before Christmas..
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
Update 2 - sending in the pixel 4XL

The corresponding packaging material was delivered on 20 December. I must say that I am not very enthusiastic about it, as it was just a very thin white box padded with some felt. I had imagined something better underneath...

But now to the further course of the return to the repair service provider:

Friday, December 20th: Pixel 4 XL packed in a repair kit.

Saturday, December 21st: at 10:53 a.m. the packed Pixel 4 XL was delivered by me to the nearest UPS Access Point in my town.

Monday, December 23rd: at 11:27 p.m. the package processed at the transfer point in my region, and is now ready for transport.

Tuesday, December 24th:

at 04:30 a.m. the package leaves my region

at 07:08 a.m. the package reaches Warsaw (PL), where it has received the import scan

at 11:32 a.m. arrival at the repair service provider (CTDI).

Duration thus far:

Net: 4 days (as the 10-12 days count from delivery at the UPS Access Point)

Gross: 7 days (plus 3 days shipping time for the repair set)
