[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Lughnasadh:
To figure out if you can unlock the bootloader you will first have to figure out if you have a Google or Verizon variant. Google variants can be unlocked. Verizon variants, for the most part, can't (although there is a thread where I believe someone may have done it on a Verizon variant). To figure out if you have a Google or Verizon, go here... https://www.imeipro.info/check_lg.html

Under "Buyer Name", if it says Google you're good to go. If it says Verizon or VZW, then you can't unlock the bootloader (unless the method in the thread I mentioned above actually works).

If you find you have a Google variant then via fastboot unlock the bootloader and fastboot flash the latest Q factory image.

when u unlock u can flash whatever firmware you want.

.

the problem u in android 11 . this very much bug.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Larzzzz82:
Once you unlock, it'll wipe the phone.

You say you're running 11 DP1... At this point, I'd suggest signing up for the beta program and let the system update to I'd imagine the latest preview. Doing this should not wipe the phone.

From there you should have a working device and can back up what you want.

You should be given the option to unenroll on the beta website. Doing that, will downgrade the phone to the latest 10 release. it WILL also wipe the phone.

Go here. I see there's a link that could help you out.

Ive seen speech to text software for Pc's and desktops but i wanted to know if there is speech to text software especially for GPS software like TOM Tom7 so i can just say street address instead of typing them while im driving...will make alot of things easier for me while driving.

you seruous..141 people lookedat this and nobody has any clue of if there is speech to text software..like the one for PC that does the alien voice

this question has been asked before and it seems as if the answer is no.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=384503

However a work around that would involve time consumption and copy and paste, but would work for emails and text - would be signing up for a Jott.com account. Its free and essetaily you call a dedicated number for your account talk to the system and then it emails you a copy of the chat you just had. You could then pull up the email assuming you have it set up on your phone, copy and paste. This is a lot of work to simply be lazy not to type it, and i guess the fact you're copying/pasting negates the whole concept of dictating so that you do not have to type anything, but hey it would work. Just not so much for TOM TOM7. there i would recommend a service like telenav.com. they have a function on their gps software that allows you to dictate to it your destinations and so forth.

Only responding because no one else has. Don't consider myself to be an expert in this arena, but I remember this question being asked and researched several months ago. As I remember (at that time) no one found anything that is currently available.

Some interesting work going on out there - http://www.digitalfuturesoft.com/texttospeechproducts.php and I currently use Jott (not something that would work for what you're looking for, but a great service). Sorry I couldn't be more helpful - hope someone gives you (and me) a better answer.

Hello guys, It happens for me to be blind (not completely) so I know about TTS software. The only one good is the “Mobile Speak” from “CodeFactory”. There are some problems with this software for example:

1)	It is not free.

2)	It is expensive.

3)	It can not be cracked (as I know).

4)	It works with sim car lock.

5)	It can not help you with the GPS because it can not read graphics. You need a GPS software that displays some messages as text and not graphics.

I hope I helped you.

[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] i42o:
This post is not demand a build for our phone, this post is not to get anybody upset it is just a question that I've had for many years.

I've owned every single Nexus device up until the Nexus 6P, and have owned every single pixel device... I remember that with each Nexus phone the support scene was so robust that you look forward to a new phone to come out and see development on it...

For some reason pixel phones are one of the only phones that don't get love from any custom ROM development out there.. you see that lineage OS does not support our phone and has not supported our phone since the Pixel 1 officially. Paranoid Android has not supported our phone at all since the Pixel 1 , And the last official update from them was in 2017.. why is it that our phone being one of the latest phones does not get love?

The main thing that I've heard is that our phone is too expensive to build for, but I have seen the OnePlus 7 pro have vast support in the community and it is almost up there as far as pricing goes as the pixel.

I have always been one to contribute to donations or to work that's worth donating to, dirty unicorns has been a great ROM, but if you think about it our selection of ROMs can be counted with one hand .

Make Google phones great again!
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] WoZzYDoesitbest:
I also believe the pixels don't attract the custom rom enthusiasts like us they are made & sold & marketed to people to be a iPhone competitor also I feel a lot of developers are getting older & many devs just support a few phones that's it & there are not as many devs on the scene like there were years ago unfortunately I remember have my OG Droid from Verizon the support was crazy unfortunately I feel we have to look at it this way its a end of a era for google phones sad to say
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] keaheng:
Those custom roms are made to make our experience feel like Pixel. They take here and there from pixel feature. Since we are using pixel software, so what the point of having the custom rom? Kernel is more important. Thanks god we have artemis and kiri. Soon we will have Proton or maybe Sultan.

Btw we dont have TWRP support while there is for OP7Pro. Install a custom rom or make one is pain in the ass.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] kickenwing13:
Because they consistently don't live up to expectations. Everybody keeps waiting for them to live up to hype and at least attempt to challenge others with hardware or respond to feedback and they continue to ignore that feedback. it's still in all right device, I like it it's overpriced as hell and I'm glad I waited a few months to get it, still tempted by the OnePlus 8 pro after leaving my 7 pro for this.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] billyt1:
Better off going back to the 7 pro.It jus got Dual boot twrp. I'm running Oos and lineage as of this writing tomorrow might be different :laugh: . I got a 3xl and it lost twrp after Android 9 you can fastboot boot it with half the functions not working the 7t the same way an id imagine 8 pro be the same. Only way to have fun with Magisk on the 3xl Android 10 is to be running a user-debug build. Without the debug build magisk will let you overlay the system an look at your data but that's bout it. The way things look nowadays looking alot more locked down then they used to wait til Android 11 hits even more so is the case. Now Google going to build their own chipset like Samsung with help from Samsung Which will bring us one more step closer to Google Fuschia instead of Android
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] SquireSCA:
ROMs in general have gone down hill.

The need for them isn't really there. Early on, Android phones had tons of issues, shortcoming and limitations... ROMs were a way around that, to get the phones to work the way we wanted and the way they should have come out of the box.

Now? Most phones are really good, and there's not much to improve. ROM's don't really have much to offer any more, other than to a shrinking pool of users who want to tweak their phones more than they actually USE their phones...
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] alwynjoshy:
Adding upon all comments above one of the reason is people are stuck with IOS. They don't know the actual power of Android. Who ever tries the Android are forced to go back to ios again because lack of facetime and other apps that are only available only ios
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] SquireSCA:
Realistically, what's the power of android these days? Yes, you can tweak icons and the status bar and stuff, which 99.99% of phone owners don't care about...

The differences between the platforms isn't as great as it once was... I am on an iPhone 11 Pro at the moment and its a great phone... I want to come back to Android at some point but the watch situation on Android is a joke. And for the Pixels... they just never live up to the hype. I love Samsung, but updates still suck. There is OnePlus but some of the features like Wifi calling don't work on ATT half the time...

I prefer Android overall, but if you want the complete package with a good watch, Apple has the better package.

I had high hopes for Essential but we saw where that went...

I wish that Google would put out a pixel without giant bezels, that didn't have a last generation processor, etc... They will put out a phone in November that's using the same specs as phones that came out last month...
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] alwynjoshy:
There are few functions which apple cant replace using of Clone applications, Root functions apps, custom fonts and many
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] SquireSCA:
Realistically, today, what does the average person need root access on their phone for? I haven't rooted or ROM'd in several years... The tinkerer in me wants to, but I never find any compelling reason to...

I just don't care enough about what font my Instagram icon uses...
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] alwynjoshy:
my root need are viperfx, swift theme installer, fingerface , Sd maid ( save 2GB in every week when cleanup), etc
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] PieceofSlice:
I have a Galaxy Note 10+. One of the heavy flagship phones from last year. There's about 3 ROMS and the communication in the threads is just about non-existent.

It's kinda sad because I remember my Note 4 having a ****load of AOSP ROM options and this phone has 1 that hasn't been updated in months. I would love to root/flash a ROM on my phone but I think the main thing is a lack of developers. Most have probably moved on and don't see a point in developing custom ROMs when most phones nowadays are capable of doing almost anything. The main reason I rooted/flashed ROMs was for the ability to customize my phone to my liking.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] SquireSCA:
Exactly, and today, so many stock phones allow most of the customization that ROMs used to have to provide... And if not, install a different launcher and there are your themes...
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] TechOut:
IMO Pixels don’t have the fan base of the type of enthusiast that install custom ROMs and such. Higher spec phones like OnePlus and stuff like they are more heavily modded i feel like because those types of people are attracted to the specs. Pixels don’t have specs that are anything to write home about. Where as a OnePlus with 12GB of RAM is pretty impressive.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] SquireSCA:
That's probably it right there. The latest and greatest Pixel, uses specs that are already obsolete... Every year, they bring half year old specs and release their new phones with comparable specs to everyone else's specs that are already on the way out.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Surge1223:
My thoughts below are mine, and mine only..

The reason you don't see as many custom roms here on xda imho is because it's no longer a hub that's a viable place for most roms to gain any value. the passion for development hasn't died. There are many great new features, and things users would love. Sure, the pixels are great out of the box, but you can say that for any flagship that has come out recently.

Don't get me wrong, xda is great, I'm just saying you shouldn't think devs and users have lost interest because their content isn't on xda.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] kickenwing13:
I mean you're right,. It's different than the days of installing a ROM on a Droid x or something and actually seeing a notable difference between Moto blur and not. Or my note two with some of the different runs I could get on it. I don't know, I think I would like the freedom to make different apps different notifications so that I could customize notifications by app or by person a little easier for text messages. Little things like that that I feel like I used to get in some of those older arms but maybe not maybe I'm just misremembering or something.

You know I had a galaxy nexus back in the day because I was a Samsung fan but always liked pure android better than custom skin. But then I decided to just go with nexus line when the 6p came out. now I always rooted my Samsung phones pretty much right out the box. Because they sucked stock but their hardware was great. They needed a custom rom though and I was a flashaholic for a long time. But when I got the nexus 6p it just worked out of the box. There was no reason for me to root and flash. And I am older now i have a family and work my 2 jobs so all I want is a phone that just works. The pixel line has continued what was started by the 6p. I also dont have the extra bucks to throw around for the latest and greatest anymore so my phones go for 3 years now.

I think that roms like lineage are great for keeping life in an older phone I eventually rooted the 6p and kept it going till the battery finally died. Hell My wife loved her galaxy s5 so I had pie on that phone because of lineage and i think that the s5 will see android 10 (haven't checked los website for a while) I now have a pixel 4xl and my wife has a 3a xl so These days I have some time and I am going to see what I can get out of the og pixel xl. Root and magisk and all that. What Im getting at is Now a days I just want my phone to work out the box and to just get an ota and reboot my phone. I think that that is what the pixel line is being aimed at an Iphone competitor.

Dont get me wrong I hope that all you dev out there keep going and keep creating the great roms and kernels and root methods that you have been since android came out. It is you guys that inspire google to add features into aosp. So if you think about it android is yours the pixel experience and all the features there a good chance that they came from the mind of one of the great xda devs. If you guys stop android dies. I hope everyone stays safe and covid free and thank you all
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] HipKat:
Exactly! Go back in time and look at the HTC-EVO threads. It was about removing bloat, hacking the hotspots but mostly about a better file system. Ext4 before it was standard in ANdroid. AOSP Development. Kernels with multiple governors and settings to streamline, speed up and save battery life and then finally, theming that wasn't possible without a Custom ROM.

The last phone I flashed ROMs on was the Nexus 6 - the last great phone for Android Development in whole. I miss those days, but ever since Android 4, Google has come to Amateur Dev to add things to stock Android.

Go look up Cyanogen to see how much they contributed.

Finally, back in the day bootloaders weren't locked like they are now. A new device meant a matter of hours before an exploit was discovered and released so we could root our phones. Now, Carriers have killed that and buying an unlocked device means a substantial one time cost that many people just can't afford

[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] vaidas196:
Bought mine 2019-12 . few days ago (2020-03-30) warp charge stopped working, it still charged, but extremely slow like 40 percent an hour. When it was off i tried plugging in charger, but it started looping, it didn't boot to an animated picture with charging battery, but it still could boot into OS when power button was pressed. Did a factory reset, didn't help. Connecting to pc usb still recognizes it. Had a feeling it was a hardware error. Maybe fast charging module went bad.

Sent it for a warranty repair, got an answer that it will take more time because it was sent for an higher level service. I guess it's quite bad, it could be a motherboard fault.

I read on oneplus forums that quite a few people has a same issue. Just wondering if it is a common issue with 7t model. I'm a bit worried that OP 7t could have hardware reliability issues. i had like 4 smartphones starting with SAMSUNG GALAXY S1, none were faulty or had any hardware issues. Am i being paranoid? Should we be paranoid? Mine was in mint condition, zero falls, equipped with tempered glass and oneplus original case. Wondering if any of you had any issues with warp charge? What are your thoughts on this?
