[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] RileyNeedsHelp:
Hello, I recently bought a refurbished S9 and I found I cannot update it to 9.0. I was very frustrated and have factory reset my phone 5 times, cleared cache 7 times, used smart switch 5 times, and none of it has worked. I can't get to a repair or a carrier shop so I'm wondering if I could do anything to get it on Android 9. All help is appreciated!!!

You need samsungs odin flashtool and then download the firmware in sammobile.com. they have a guide how to flash firmware using odin
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] rupert3k:
Start by downloading latest firmware for your area, although I'm in Australia I chose Great Britain fw (BTU-G960FXXU7CSK1-20191121174240.zip) because at the time I wanted to update to Android 10 beta 4.

Unpack the firmware and run Odin, here you will see BL, AP, CP, CSC buttons.

Load the unpacked BL file into the BL button, Ap into AP button, CP file into CP button and Home_CSC into the CSC button.

Plug your S9 into your PC and boot into download mode by pressing power, Bixby & volume down button.

It'll ask you if you wish to continue press up volume to confirm.

Once you see "Added!" press start & watch the magic.

Loads of guides, here's another: https://techbeasts.com/how-to-install-stock-firmware-on-galaxy-s9-and-s9-plus/

You can get the firmware from various websites or use Frija to download it:

https://xdaforums.com/s10-plus/how-to/tool-frija-samsung-firmware-downloader-t3910594

Your heads probably spinning but follow a guide and it's not that hard.

Once you've been running 9/10 a while you may also consider a nice custom rom like Lineage 17, this one's really cool but get 9/10 working first & see how you like it before bothering:

I'm having trouble getting the usb / charger cable to charge the 8525...

Is anyone else havin problems like this? Is there a solution?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Dalork:
Does it charge fine when you just use the USB cable or mains charger ? If it does then maybe its something as simple as poor connection and you should clean the contacts on both the handset and the charging cradle.

If your having problems no matter how you try to charge the handset then maybe your battery has reached it's useful lifespan. It could also be something else at fault but I would check/go through the obvious first.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Knockz:
This may sound wierd.. but maybe even doing a soft reset. For some strange reason sometimes when I plug in the charger or usb it either won't connect to activesync or won't charge. I then reset and everything seems to work fine. I thought it was a cable problem but it happens every now and then.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] ziglar24:
Is there any Q rom that has

1. Safety Net passing without magisk

2. Supports encryption ( so that if I lose my phone, someone can't access data easily. Earlier P elms used to support encryption)

3. Selinux enforcing

Strangely a few months ago, there were many P roms that had all of the above, but I can't find Q roms that have these features. Is it something about Q. Also, even the recent update of Los 16 don't pass Safety Net. Has something changed about android/google that is causing it?

Thanks
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] verity_:
Android Q has File based Encryption (FBE) not Full Disk encryption. And at present TWRP cannot decrypt FBE. And this it cannot Mount /data partition to do OTA updates or anything of the sort. The main TWRP maintainer is presently busy with other very important things in his life so FBE for TWRP may take a while.

Plus Xiaomi has not yet released Android 10 for Poco so it could also be that some firmware component is missing to support FBE (I'm not sure). If so it could be why the ROMs have trouble implementing it.

Regarding selinux, it will be a while before ROMs become really stable.

[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] soleil123:
Since the latest update, the pull down menu is working differently on my s10e:

Normally, when you pull down the menu, you get 1 row of quick buttons and then the notifications.

Now, since the update, when I pull down i get all the quick buttons and no notifications! But this happens only when the sceen is locked. When the screen is unlocked, the pull down menu works normally

Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] soleil123:
I figured out that to view notifications on the lock screen you have to press the notification icon. Previously you could view them in the pull down menu. I guess this is a new feature ?
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] wrp2015:
Recently the latest version of LineageOS was installed on my new OnePlus 5T phone. All appears to work well, with the exeption that I am unable to transfer any data (pictures, music) from my windows 7 computer onto the phone. I have already reinstalled the drivers and the pc 'says' that the phone works well, but I cannot find it under start>computer. It does show up under start>printers and devices, but right clicking will not open it, and there are only a few drop down menu options such as disconnecting the phone, little else. I just cannot find a way to open the phone on the computer. Nor does a window pop up when connecting, asking me what I want to do (transfer pictures/videos, or the other options) as has always been the case with my old android phone. Hopefully there is someone here who can help me.

One more unrelated thing I have noticed, and that is that upon turning the phone on there is a warning screen about the bootloader being open, prompting me to press the power button again whereupon it disappears, allowing me to log in. This is no big deal, but I was wondering if this is a normal result of the LOS installation. Thanks in advance for any helpful feedback.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] moegdaog:
what was the exact code or numbers you used to unlock the phone...because some of the #'s for unlock just unlock the service providers branded lock but the other codes unlock the phone period
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bravo261:
if the code is from AT&T, then its for permanent sim unlock and you can use other sims. no more, no less

Yes the code is directly from ATT. I told them I'd be doing some international travel and wanted the option of putting in a european sim card while there.
[Redmi Note General] devil--:
Hello everyone, I pair a fitness band from the bluetooth phone and it disappearing from the list of paired devices. The dedicated band app says to remove it from your phone and pair it from the app but unfortunately there is not on the list... I installed other app that searches for bluetooth devices and in the list of paired devices sees me the headband (from the phone menu instead I do not see anything) but I can not remove it ... I did the usual wipe cache and dalvik without success, deleted bluetooth app data, put back the ROM (without factory reset) but nothing to do.

I downloaded the bluetooth apk but when I launch the installation it gave me error 102.

solutions without factory reset? via terminal knowing which file to edit to remove the device? I have a redmi note2

Thank you very much

PS: I tried with a mi a3, paired the device via bluetooth (not from dedicated app) I have the same problem (the dedicated app tells me to remove it from the phone and pair it from the app) with the me a3 the device does not disappear from the list and I can remove it.

[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] zagzzig:
Hi,

I have a Mate 10 ALP-L29 8.0.0.132 (C636), unlocked bootloader, rooted with magisk. I would like to update the phone to Android 9.

After reading lots of posts, I think following procedure may give what I want.

0. downloading current stock firmware from here:

https://pro-teammt.ru/en/online-firmware-database/?firmware_model=alp-l29c636b132&firmware_page=0

1. downloading Android 9 official stock firmware from here:

https://pro-teammt.ru/en/online-fir..._model=ALP-L29C636E2R1P12B159&firmware_page=0

2. flashing back stock RAMDISK.img and RECOVERY_RAMDIS.img from stock 8.0.0.132 firmware

https://xdaforums.com/mate-10/how-to/guide-extracting-stock-firmware-files-t3756733

3. Simply waiting for OTA or Using SD card method to update Mate 10 to Android 9.

see: https://huaweiadvices.com/flash-stock-firmware-huawei-honor-phones/

I would appreciate it if someone answer/confirm my following questions:

Will the procedure work?

Is step 2 really necessary?

Will my user data be erased? I don't really mind if I have to re-install my apps.

root will be lost after updating. Is it right?

Thanks. :)
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] Pretoriano80:
With EMUI 8 i think that flashing the stock ramdisk would be enough, but it won't hurt flashing the recovery_ramdisk too (in case you have twrp installed).

After that you should receive several OTAs, i don't think it will update directly to EMUI 9.

In case you don't receive any OTA, try with Hisuite on PC.

P. S. Installing the official OTAs is the safest way.

Hi Pretoriano80,

Thanks for your reply. cheers.

[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waqas657:
Hi, I have Huawei Mate 8 NXT-L29 (Hong Kong Version). A couple of weeks ago, I started using Magnetic Charging cable for my mobile. The cable worked great until I realized that after few days of using that cable, my phone stopped supporting fast charging. Not only this, I have not been able to connect my phone to PC for data transfer, although it still supports charging but very slowly. Moreover, my original Huawei charger and cable are no more supporting fast charging or computer connectivity.

I took my phone to service center which first suggested me to replace the charging socket which I did but it did not solve the problem. As a last resort, I had the complete charging circuit to be replaced and the problem is still there. I have reset my phone twice even have cleared the cache partition from boot menu. But all in vain.

I am posting my problem here, hoping that I will find the solution to my problem. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

[Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers] manimirza055:
Can anyone do some developing for Redmi note 8 pro. Because so much peoples are waiting for the roms for this phone?
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Halasir:
My understanding at the moment, is that custom ROM development is being prevented on the Redmi Note 8 Pro, because it can get hard-bricked (become completely unusable) MUCH too easily, and the only way to unbrick it, is to use an authorised Xiaomi service account (which very few people have).

This means that, whenever a developer tries to test something they're working on (a custom ROM or custom recovery), if their phone gets hard-bricked while testing, their development completely stops until/if they can get their phone unbricked.

If Xiaomi were to allow all users to unbrick their Redmi Note 8 Pro easily (without needing these authorised Xiaomi service accounts), then I think that custom ROMS would start to come out (I believe the full source code has already been released, which is a prerequisite for custom ROM development).

Other members, please feel free to share your views, and correct me if I'm wrong on the above; what are the chances that Redmi Note 8 Pro owners will be able to easily/quickly unbrick their hard-bricked devices in the future?

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] yccheok:
Hello all,

I'm an app developer.

Recently, starting from mid of December 2019, I receive a lot of complains from Galaxy S10/ S10+/ S10e users.

After they have upgraded from Android 9 to Android 10, they are no longer able to launch my app anymore. The only workable workaround, is to uninstall my app, and reinstall again. This is very annoying, as this causes app data loss.

From my side, it is very difficult for me to replicate the problem. I can only gain access to Galaxy S10+ remotely (via Samsung Developer Test Lab), which is installed with Android 9, or already installed with Android 10. I suspect, I need to go through an Android 9 to Android 10 upgrade process, only I can reproduce the problem.

The following is the testing I can do so far via remote Samsung Developer Test Lab.

1) Install old version of my app in Android 10.

2) Launch without issue.

3) Upgrade my app to latest version in Android 10.

4) Launch without issue.

I was wondering, as Samsung Galaxy S10/ S10+/ S10e users, do you face any app related issue, after upgrading your device to Android 10, during 2019 December time frame?

Thanks.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] yccheok:
Hi, thanks!

Currently, I have disable official download by Galaxy S10, S10+ and S10e from Google Play Store due to high crash rate.

You may download the latest APK from here - https://github.com/yccheok/wenote.jstock.co/raw/master/release-2.46.apk

I notice if the user phone is already installed with Android 10, installing WeNote will not cause issue.

However, the problem will more easy to occur, based on the following scenario

1) User phone is using Galaxy S10 Android 9

2) User download and run WeNote

3) User upgrades phone to Android 10

4) User unable to launch WeNote

Looking forward your feedback.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] waterdaan:
It seems to be working fine on Android 10(I've already updated)

Maybe you can be more specific where/when it crashes
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] yccheok:
Crash happens, when user upgrade from Android 9 to Android 10. (WeNote is installed when their phone is in Android 9)

After that, they are no longer able to launch WeNote.

But, if you install WeNote since Android 10, most probably there is no issue.

Can you help me to monitor for few days, to see whether WeNote can continue to be launched even after a few days?
