[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Doenerbude:
Hi,

how can I permanently disable MAC adress randomisation?

I can set this for each connection separately but I want to disable this feature completely.

Thx
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] JohnKuczek:
From this site, it would appear you cannot in Android 10: https://source.android.com/devices/tech/connect/wifi-mac-randomization

I'm curious though, what use case do you have where you want to do this?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] brandon5491:
I don't like that it's the default setting. For some reason, if I change WiFi networks (away from the one that autoconnected), I have to re-enter the password and have to remember to change it back to "Use device MAC".
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] lywyn:
Is MAC randomisation causing a problem for you? Maybe someone can help if they understand the issue.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Doenerbude:
I have several WiFi networks to deal with at work and access control is based on MAC address.

Thats no security thing, only offline networks for testing purpose. SSID changes often and I always forget to change the setting...

[MENTION=6104769]brandon5491[/MENTION] had the same issue with WPA3 but seems to be fixed with March Update (or newer AP firmware)
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] lywyn:
Well iOS and Android do MAC randomisation so it will be more than just you struggling with this issue, maybe raise the problem with your work? Maybe there is a tasker addon that can turn the option off based on some rule you create.

As for stopping you, I'm not sure how? If you join a network the device will use its fixed hardware MAC address which is approved. The MAC filtering should not be enforced unless you are connected to the network.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] wjkatl:
Randomized MAC addresses and IoT Devices

For me, it makes it nearly impossible to onboard new smart devices. Lifx, Kasa, Samsung, etc all need static MAC when adding them. You have to stop the install, go change the setting on the wifi for each device, then start the install all over again.

[Realme X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] P1f:
Did you follow the steps from the other thread with the Guide to install Magisk here in the forums?basically thr steps are:

1 Flash ozip update

2 Flash vbmeta.img as vbmeta

3 (Optional) reboot to recovery

4 Now flash Magisk Canary

For some the reboot is not needed but for me magisk failed to install withour that reboot so i marked it as optional.

There is only 1 ozip file, doesn't matter locked or unlocked or India and Global.

The only difference is the Chinese version, you can download the 3 GB OZIP file from the links in page 1 and try to install it

hi [MENTION=9350973]All[/MENTION], I was able to update to Android 10, did a clean flash but now the fingerprint reader is not working anymore.

I can go to the screen to activate but it's refreshing all the time and the symbol will not flash up and no finger will be detected.

Hi!

I managed to install the rom. I had to wipe system and data, and I had to use the TWRP shared here.

Everything was working bu I lost FP too. Since it had the realme UI recovery, it overwrote TWRP after installing the rom, I've tried to relock the bootloader.

Now, I've brick my phone. It's bootlooping continuously, it shows the first realme-power with android screen and reboot, it takes 1 sec. I can't go to recovery. Only thing I can do it's turn it off by vol up and power. If I connect it to computer it starts bootlooping again.

Can anyone help, please? What can I try to fix my phone? Thanks!

[Realme X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] crime_of_heart:
[/COLOR]

Thanks for posting the update, appreciate that.

However I believe that you shouldn't recommend people to relock bootloader if they are with stock recovery. That is not the only criterion. Because even with stock recovery, if there is any slight system or boot (i.e. trying Magisk installation) modification, the phone will be hard brick. Just check Q&A posts or even previous posts. They are full of hard bricks even with stock recovery.

IF YOUR PHONE IS UNLOCKED, I DON'T RECOMMEND YOU TO LOCK THE BOOTLOADER AGAIN. DO IT ONLY AND ONLY IF YOU ARE 100% SAFE THAT EVERYTHING IS 100% STOCK AND NO MODIFICATION TO SYSTEM, BOOT OR RECOVERY PARTITIONS. IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT A PARTITION MEANS, THEN NEVER TRY TO RELOCK YOUR BOOTLOADER OR YOU WILL END UP A HARD BRICK WHICH IS CURRENTLY UNRECOVERABLE!!!

make sure you are up to date with the regular colorOS, then when selecting the update software look to the top-right corner. select trial software and sign up with your phone number. use a VPN to select India and then check for an update. it should pop-up. i used expressvpn set to Mumbai.

Hi guys!

Android 10 it's already stable? I have a X2 Pro with all stock, no root, nothing, everything updated (Spain). Should I use a VPN to connect to India and try to update OTA to the A10 stable?

How is the process?
[Realme X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Derek100:
I am Spanish too and I tried several India VPNs on Play Store without success

I think it may be because we use EEA ROMS or because it's a staged rollout and may arrive later
[Realme X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] uriii13:
I'm thinking if being in ColorOS 6.1 can be the problem...

Should I install the first beta manually? Or it's coming authomatically?
[Realme X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Derek100:
No I don't think so, you need to be on RMX1931EX_11.A.10 (which is ColorOS 6.1) to upgrade to RUI

To install the betas you would need one of these two things

Be registered on the beta form that was openned early on this month (now it's closed) so if you haven't, then you are out of luck (like me)

Or unlock bootloader (and lose Widevine L1 and maybe the fingerprint sensor in the process) I think in HTCMania there are some tutorials

I would simply wait because unlicking bootloader has some risks, hope it arrives sooner :)

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] ezkialrage:
copied and pasted from the gps faq:

hey guys,

im a long time reader and this is me first post here on the forums.

im having an issue with the gps for the xv6800 on verizon. ive read through lots and lots of posts regarding verizon and their gps service, agps and the like. my problem is that i dont ever get a lock, and never see any satalites in the htc gps tool. it just sits there.

ive got

VZW XV6800

Rom: DCD 3.2.0

Radio: 3.42.30

i installed the radio using the sprint official rom, and then put dcd's over that. im using olipro 2.40 and after i put in dcd's rom, i ran the verizon carrier cab. also the arc mms thing but im sure that has nothing to do with anything other than mms.

my gps settings are

com4

4800 baud

and manage automatically.

location mode is set to on.

i dont have tomtom or another commercial program to test, so ive been trying google maps and windows live. google maps tells me my handset doesnt seem to be compatible with my location, and windows live just tells me gps signal lost.

ive let it sit for roughly an hour and some change, trying for a lock, although that is unpractical for everyday use, i just wanted it to lock.

i read on here that other verizon customers gets theirs to lock in minutes, and that would be great for me if i could get that. so im asking, is it just my handset? or have i not done a crucial step in the flashing, programming?

didnt call verizon when i switched phones to reactivate data or whatever, i didnt know what i was supposed to ask them to do, so i just switched phones thru vzw.com and it makes calls and uses the ## codes perfectly. ive dont the *228 ect .

am i just sol? i really would love to have gps back, my previous phone broke, and i used vznav and that was great.

thanks in advance.

Same here bro, i have done everything but the "phone is not connected" is shown on the mi unlock tool(ver 4.5.514.47). i have also tried checking for the drivers from the gear icon on top right of the miunlock tool but nothing changed. Then i asked some of my friends and youtube videos they suggested to install adb drivers, i have done that also but the problem remains same.

What else to do now?
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Guides, News] Guyinlaca:
That's a fair assessment. From testing out an S20 Ultra, I wasn't impressed enough to upgrade from the Note 10+. While many of the upgrades are nice to have, there are no earth shattering changes. To be fair, phone technology has plateaued and it's going to take more than camera, screen and battery upgrades to get people spending $1000+, let alone $1400-1500. The Note 20 is going to need an under display front camera, an even bigger battery, more futuristic design or something to get people to upgrade.

Now I have friends who upgraded from S8/ Note 8 models and they're blown away by the improvement. It's become more practical to upgrade every 2+ years versus luxury upgrades every cycle.
