Google Store Additional $100 Success

I was able to secure an additional $100 in promo from the Google store. They refused to do any match to current or black Friday pricing due to return policy. After a while of back and forth I dropped the following in the attachment on the support person with a bunch of sarcasm. After 50 minutes of waiting I was finally able to get additional $100. Since I'm sure this will expire January 31st with the rest I still have nothing to use it on. Please use it as an example for your Google store orders if necessary. I never recommend being mean. I worked in retail for 8 years in the most insane electronics experience so I know how much that sucks. Using sarcasm is usually my way of getting my point across and usually works in my favor because it amuses the person helping. I explained that I understand they have limitations but that it sucks to be penalized for company loyalty and early adoption. Good luck and hopefully pre-orders for the Pixel Buds don't go live on February 1st just to screw us.

*EDIT* She said to me early in the conversation that I couldn't match Black Friday because the promo was over. I kept trying. After some time I noticed that it's still $150 off what I got it for so I tried that. She said I was out of price protection since it was past 15 days so I made sure to point out she should've mentioned that about Black Friday and tried the additional promo credit because there shouldn't be any policy attached to it.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] roughriduz:
It's in the original credit notification email. I've attached a screenshot. I can find no other way to see the promo expiration date. It might be a fault on Google's part but I'm sure it's deliberate. If the expiration date isn't shown next to it, all those wanting to use it on the Pixel Buds will probably lose it waiting. I'd rather use it on something I don't have than a redundancy from the current offering of items. I'd recommend someone jump on a chat asking IF it expires without actually using the expiration as definite knowledge. I'd do it myself but I don't feel like another session after the long battle for the additional credit. Hopefully they did away with the expiration or just extended it.

I have no reason to bs. I told the rep I would just keep calling back until it was resolved. He had to check with a supervisor.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] roughriduz:
Odd that we're all pissed off for getting ripped by Google and in all these screenshots are the Pixel Buds sitting in a waiting list. I believe we have finally joined the ranks of Apple sheep. Welcome to the land of Google Goats. We do what we want because Android but are ultimately owned by Google.

Now we're just getting mixed messages. Chat says they don't expire but the official Google email says they do. Maybe they removed the expiration. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Good morning, let's see if anyone can help me. I have a LG 5X in the past I had the classic bootloop problem solved thanks to the file 5X-6P inject .... AK3.zip. The phone now even if not with all the cores working is fine. I installed the LineageOS Custom ROM 15.1 based on Android Oreo 8.1. Later installed Nethunter for LG 5X official. All right just not installing the kernel I saw that when installing the zip from recovery TWRP when installing the Kernel does not find the image to patch. Nethunter is installed but everything does not work properly. In your opinion, how could I solve ... ??? ... which kernel could I use ... ??? ... I tried the Kernel Zesty and I must say that everything is pretty good. Are there any other kernels available ...?!? Thank you all. Regards

Hello everyone. I have rooted my oneplus 6 facing a stupid tiny problem with my app banking: usually it's possibile to use the "easy access" that get logged without enter the temporary code genereted by the token of the bank.

Once did the root process, my easy access is always set on but when I try to log in it ask me the code token. The bank support says that isn't possible with a rooted device so I hidden the app in magisk and changed the name of the package but the problem is still here. I pass safetyNet and my device is certified on playstore. Also tried to uninstall all apps with root access, hidden magisk by "hidden space" of my oneplus. Any idea?

This is my app, can you take a look, please? Thanks

Put magisk on core mode and reboot use you app if not detect root it ok and some time disbale core mode and reboot and use magsik as you using right now

Most magisk module break safty net

However, i could see that all the people upgrading did have WM6. The question is that is it OK to do a radio only upgrade to 1.47.30.10 with WM5 running.

Has any one had issues with 1.47.30.10 on WM5?

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blufreak:
Long story short trying to fix an old z3 for mates daughter to be able to use. Wouldn't turn on, red light charge only. Clearly xperia infamous battery drain issue. Tested the battery at 2.6v......bin. Funnily companion was showing device is on, unlock to proceed but it clearly wasn't on.

New battery in, but fiddling before hand I noticed red charge light when no battery so assume that light means dead or no battery. New battery in and get no lights at all. Have checked and its at 3.6v......surely this would be sufficient to start the phone anyway? At least briefly? Disconnect tit or put old battery back in I get red light again. New battery nothing.

Using the yellow button or power+volume up it does vibrate so the battery is working to some degree. If 3.6v is still insuffieicnt to even get a flash from the screen should I assume charge circuit on new battery is dead?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Devlik:
Issue:

1.Some users (like me) must have faced issue of screen ghosting or retention in which if the device is used at max brightness, they see a ghosted image on sides of their phone. (Especially visible when switching from a light theme to dark, for eg, going in chrome incognito mode you will see it)

2.Usually it happens after flashing a custom ROM or kernel.

Fix:

Method 1:

1. In case if its a custom ROM, go to Settings > Display > LiveDisplay

2. Set the Color Profile to ‘Standard'.

3. Go to color calibration setting and set the following values:

Red at 90%

Green at 90%

Blue at 90%.

4. Keep the display screen of for some time (15 min) and boom! Issue solved.

[Note: Max brightness may feel a little less than before but its still better, you will get used to it]

Method 2:

1.In case you have a custom kernel, you can refer to other threads or manually set the values of Red, Green and Blue by yourself by using a ‘Kernel Manager App'.

Just keep it at minimum than its original values.

Conclusion:

This issue is NOT a hardware issue, its a software issue that can be fixed by implementation of any following methods.

I got through some other threads of Redmi having same issue. Just the difference is in the settings I used, you can customize it as per your own will BUT make sure that the ghosting does not appear by use of that setting. If successful, you may replay :o

It is not software issue, but the low hardware quality I presume
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Devlik:
It is not the case that every user will face it. In case if it occurs, you may make use of these procedures.

Mostly, if you use max brightness and switch suddenly to dark grey, you can notice it (in custom ROMs / custom kernel ).
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Devlik:
No it is a software issue. I am not talking about the yellow spot issue (that is hardware issue)

This one is ghosting or temporary burn in caused due to change in the default color calibration.

I faced it before but after trying the above settings, even at max brightness, the ghosting did not appear again. So it actually works.

Ghosting does not remain forever in LCD. So its not harmful to hardware in any way. (Just buggy)

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Darklouis:
I agree. Screen Retention or Ghosting is mostly present on other devices (I'm not talking about the Pocophone alone but on every other devices) and can be fixed via software implementations or updates. Changing color profile and/or color settings can be a solution too.

I am neither using a custom ROM nor have done anything in past which can have these after effects. I am facing these issue or may be noticeable after the rollout of the MIUI11 ROM. So i contacted other who owns pocof1 , but their device don't have these issues. Then i contacted the service center and they reinstalled the MIUI11 but the problem persists.

So then i thinking of a screen replacement since i m on a warranty period so should i do that to solve this issue?.

Also u gave the settings to resolve the issue for a stock/CustomUI but wht for the MIUI , pls give the setting for them too.

pls answer all my queries!
