[Google Pixel 3a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] FoxA:
Thanks for the great work :D
[Google Pixel 3a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] k4zz:
I can't wait to flash this and try it out!

Does anyone have any information about the battery life on DU compared to stock or another rom?

Also, is it rooted by default?

Thanks for bringing this rom to the Pixel 3a!
[Google Pixel 3a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] craigacgomez:
Battery life is subjective and depends on too many variables. That being said, battery life on DU is leat least quivalent, but should be better than stock.

It's not rooted by default, but you may use Magisk if you want root.
[Google Pixel 3a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] k4zz:
Thank you very much for the prompt response. I'm excited to try this one out. Is there a feature list posted somewhere for this ROM, or DU in general?

Thanks again for your work and support :)

[Google Pixel 3a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Joe333x:
I see you list instructions for flashing with a device with TWRP, does this mean if I flash back to Android 9 and install TWRP, that I can then run this ROM and TWRP even though its based on Android 10?
[Google Pixel 3a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] craigacgomez:
No. That is only intended for devices that have TWRP support for Android 10.
[Google Pixel 3a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Joe333x:
Damn thanks was hoping! I dont want to give up TWRP!
[Google Pixel 3a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] blksith0:
Hey thanks.

When I fastboot flash the boot.img, can I just initially use the magisk-patched version you've provided in your files there, in lieu of the plain boot.img? Would that save me some effort of setting up magisk afterwards, and I could boot into an already-rooted ROM?
[Google Pixel 3a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] craigacgomez:
For the first flash / clean flash, don't use the Magisk patched boot image. Let the device boot up once after the sideload. You can reboot before running the setup and flash the Magisk patched boot image and then continue the setup. And you'll have to install MagiskManager after the device setup. It will ask you to reboot once.

For updates / dirty flash, you can sideload the ROM, reboot to bootloader and flash the Magisk patched boot image and then reboot to retain Magisk
[Google Pixel 3a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] david320te:
This may be a very dumb question, but in terms of raw code, what is the difference between a rom for the Pixel 3a / Pixel 3a XL? Except the screen and the battery, the devices do not differ...wouldn't the DU Pixel 3a XL rom work as well?

Thanks for the rom - downloading it right now

Edit: I seem to have an issue with the first time wizard - it finds my wifi, but is somehow stuck. I've skipped it, but can't restore anything from my google backups...

ROM seems to be running quite good however
[Google Pixel 3a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] craigacgomez:
The devices are nearly identical, and ROMs are likely mostly cross-compatible, but there are subtle differences like some of the configs... Screen and power to name a few.

The setup wizard works fine on both WiFi and mobile data. But I also don't know what you mean by "stuck". Does it connect to your WiFi networks? Have you tried it with your mobile data?
[Google Pixel 3a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] david320te:
It just stays at the initial "Checking for Updates...". Yes, both LTE and WiFi are connected and i've tried it with both. I can just skip all of it and have been able to restore a backup afterwards

I have to say, it's a pretty amazing rom...i've got roughly 7 hours of SoT, a ton of standby, reception is good (i wish it would stay a bit longer on LTE, before switching over to Edge)
[Google Pixel 3a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] craigacgomez:
I've fixed the WiFi issue. I will post the update soon.
[Google Pixel 3a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] craigacgomez:
New build date 2020-08-16 uploaded. This fixes the WiFi issue where the device sometimes does not connect to a WiFi network and hangs. No other changes since the 2020-08-08 build.
[Google Pixel 3a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Archangel:
Thank you for keeping the 3a alive with a custom rom!
[Google Pixel 3a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] creeve4:
[MENTION=2322613]craigacgomez[/MENTION] what was the change? I want to apply it to my personal build.
[Google Pixel 3a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] david320te:
Thanks, will wipe the device in the next few days and try the setup again
[Google Pixel 3a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] kurt.gomez:
No need to wipe. You can just update like normal and it'll work fine
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] jaxf250:
Current Note8 user on ATT (phone locked to carrier). I pre-ordered a Note20 Ultra from Samsung direct, unlocked version. Have been off XDA really for a couple years and not rooting/modding much lately but have read that ATT will not allow unlocked phones on their network to use WiFi Calling and/or VoLTE. If true, are there workaround options for me (assuming I stick w ATT as the carrier I mean) to get these to work, or should I cancel the unlocked model and order the ATT version? Was hoping to root eventually and remove bloatware / play w custom ROMs again on the Ultra etc etc. - that is why I ordered an unlocked version.

Thanks gents for the guidance here! Best forum around for us phone geeks ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] butchieboy:
If it will be like Note 9 or 10 plus just have to flash the U version csc with odin and it will give you wifi calling advanced..messaging..volte
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] jaxf250:
Much thanks - I will do this then when it arrives.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Elastep:
Did not work for me on the unlocked note 10+. Worked right away on the tmobile.

Att was actually fun to have. Nothing that att expected worked on the unlocked device. For example I had unlimited hotspot, despite it was not included in my att plan.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] jaxf250:
That's bizarre. I am rethinking this unlocked route. I must have wifi calling since signal at the house is terrible in my area. I don't need the drama of uncertainty if this will work or not. Might as well cancel the unlocked one and just upgrade via att. Oy. Wtf is with att these days? They lost my directv account last year and now their wireless policies are looking like a royal pita.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] jcrompton:
I don't think you have to worry .... ATT seems to consistently allow Samsung unlocked devices to have carrier functions

You just have to flash the U CSC as mentioned above. Worked for me on Note 10 and is currently working on a s20 ultra device
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] butchieboy:
Jcrompton

Whats going on buddy. You jumping on the Ultra?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Darthshadow666:
I strongly recommend switching your order to the ATT model. I got my note 10+ unlocked based off the suggestions found here saying that flashing the att firmware would give me all the features, and I've been through a year of headaches.

For a little wile i was able to enjoy wifi calling, voicemail and VOLTE, but after my first software update the features were lost. i was able to get them back briefly by putting my sim back in an old Att phone and keeping it for a day or two, but that trick never lasted past a week. I've tried re-flashing the software, switching back to unlocked and then back to ATT, basically anything i could think of and it never worked.

calling ATT didn't help either, as the reps gave me a canned line about not supporting outside phones. the whole reason I'm updating to the 20 ultra is to just get my phone fully functional with an ATT model
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] jaxf250:
Thanks darth. Yeah, I switched to the att version. Hate the hidden tracking bloatware etc that comes with it but must have a very workable phone for daily work calls and wifi calling is a must. No drama is my motto these days. Thank you for reporting your experience.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] dave5777:
I had the same situation with my unlocked Pixel 4 XL, keep calling ATT until I got the right person to modify my sim to allow WiFi Calling to work, that's my plan when I get my unlocked 20 Ultra.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] pdagal:
I'm not a gent, but I doI have the Note 20 Ultra in for review and am using it with an AT&T SIM. VoLTE works, no option for WiFi calling.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] b00st4ddicted:
What worries me is the 5G. Will unlocked work for ATT 5G?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] pdagal:
It does on my unlocked Galaxy S20+ 5G. The Note 20 Ultra is a ways to release and their system doesn't yet correctly identify the IMEI, so I can't say for sure what will happen after release day.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] VICosPhi:
Hi Lisa,

Your reviews are the best, so thank you first of all. Can you check if it has any eSIM capabilities? Supposedly S20 was going to get an update to allow eSIM use in US but that never happened...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] pdagal:
Thanks :). I'm not seeing anything under connection settings on our US unlocked Note 20 Ultra (there's no IMEI listed or cellular network option listed under connection settings when no nano SIM is installed. EsimClient is running on the phone, which makes me think the hardware must be there. EsimClient is not running on my GS 20+ unlocked.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] VICosPhi:
Great, thank you for checking and comparing with S20+ :) !

eSIMClient running gives me hope that we will get eSIM support in an update...Still perplexed how or why Samsung has gone out of the way to disable eSIM on US variants when Apple, Google support it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] jaxf250:
Ha! Thanks Lisa (love your tech vids!!) - I switched to the ATT version. Supposed to be here 8/21. I can't take a chance with wifi calling being borked, or that just that I may need to Odin-flash updates or CSC packs periodically to keep up with the monthly patches (ie force an unlocked unit to keep working on ATT's network if my previous firmware gets overwritten etc. I mean). I guess as I got older I went from a tech pioneer and adopter to just an end user LOL.... I just need it to work. Maybe I can do that package remove thingy and chop the bloatware periodically... we shall see once the community gets these units and starts their dev magic for us.

I guess I will need to make an appt at the local ATT store in a week to get on a new 5G plan from my current 4G one to take advantage of the coming speeds.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] pdagal:
You're welcome- glad you enjoy our vids! With AT&T, you can simply change your plan online, no need to visit a store. The mid and high tier unlimited plans include 5G.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] one028:
I flashed my unlocked Note 10 plus and didnt get wifi calling, visual voicemail, VOLTE.....only reason I am up grading is to get an ATT version, and to skip all the hassle of an unlocked version. Never again.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] nuclearrage:
Could you tell me more. I have the US unlocked note 20 ultra, I put an AT&T sim in (from my note 9 unlocked) and I can't find an option to turn on wifi calling. I pretty much gave up on feature like this, because I would rather have the unlocked phone, but if it works now maybe I am missing something.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Edgie70:
Hi all I have my S10 set to basic vibration pattern when I get a notification it vibrates with that pattern BUT when it vibrates again because reminder is set to notify after 3 minutes the vibration pattern is a totally different one and I don't know why it would change ....
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] StoneyJSG:
Have you searched the setting options? You might have something set that makes it do that.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Edgie70:
Hi , yes I've been through all that , seemed to start when I changed notifications to " show on lock screen " it was set to " hide on lock screen " it's weird though , the first beep and vibration is correct , the 3 minute reminder vibrate is totally different
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Questions & Answers] sensei_sai:
Hi XDA community

I've got a strange problem.

Since one week my screen displays a pink line from the top to the bottom of the screen, in the extreme right of the screen, where there is the curvature.

It seems to be superimposed over what should be displayed

It also appears when the aod is activated

What should I do?

Thanks

Sounds like an hardware issue. Can you post a photo if possible?
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Questions & Answers] sensei_sai:
It should be more clear.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Questions & Answers] UnlimitedBB:
Either the screen or the flex cable connecting the screen is faulty. You can try to go to MIUI diagnostics mode and test the display with Red Green and Blue full screen colors. Repeat this for few times and see if the line disappears.

If it doesn't you have to return the phone for warranty claim as it can be hardware defect
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Questions & Answers] sensei_sai:
Thanks. I think I'm good for a screen replacement...
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Questions & Answers] sensei_sai:
The pink line disappeared like it appeared.... Suddenly...

It is the second time it disappear...

I don't know what to think about all this....

[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Questions & Answers] sensei_sai:
Nope... Everything works like a charm for now.

My Mi Note 10 Pro started to display the pink line from yesterday and then I remembered this thread.

I will wait a week or two and then claim for warranty.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Questions & Answers] sensei_sai:
You should try some screen repair apps... I think it solved my problem.

[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DevRet:
Hi. I have Huawei P8 lite phone (ALE-21). I have never made root on this phone. Today I created backup of all files (messages, contacts, media, applications - over 2GB) with encryption. I made the factory reset and tried to restore files from the backup with the password, but it failed. Phone displays information that password is oncorrect and doesn't accept it. What I noticed is the UI is different than it was before the factory reset but when I'm checking the update from the phone level it is saying that the version of firmware and EMUI the newest (or rather that there are no updates). My questions are is it possible that I have encrytped the backup with another version of firmware and EMUI and in effect with another alghoritm (I suppose that because I needed to make the reset because something was broken since half year and I was not able to use Google Services) and is there any another way to restore these files (most important for me are calendar, alarms, contacts, and messages)? Could you help me with that? :confused:

Regards,

DevRet
[Device Repair] kubixx:
Hello, two weeks ago my phone all of a sudden turned off and I can't turn it back on.

The only reaction I can get from it now is notification light turning on (instead of blinking) when charging. Also, when I use any vol + power combination when charging, the notification light blinks once and then goes back on. No vibration, no nothing. I tried charging it for a whole day with original charger (tried two xiaomi chargers).

I managed to tear down the phone, and plug off a battery from a motherboard. When I plug in a charger, with battery plugged off, the phone reacts exactly the same (no vibration, no screen activity, only notification led).

So my question is: could it be that the battery alone is faulty, or could it be something else? I will highly appreciate any help! :)

THIS is my problem with the new Galaxy Watch 3.

I don't really feel that there is anything new on this "new" galaxy watch 3. basically, the CPU, Clock speed, GPU, everything is the same. However, it has a newer version of the Tizen OS and bit more RAM, but that doesn't really give me anything new on this watch.

What do you guys think?

As they not change Screen Resolution.. still tiny 360 x 360 Pixel... correct me...

So it makes maybe not really sense to put new faster CPU inside this tiny Watch...

GW3 is IMHO first Watch from Samsung with 8 GB eMMC...

No idea if for everyone usefull... but hey. Bigger Storage. :D

I can remember they told on Unpack event...

Watch Faces great Watch Faces... :rolleyes:

And for Watch Faces this CPU is fast enough...

Maybe if more and better apps are allowed on Store... :cowboy:

New TI chip / light sensors.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 3] apprentice:
What benefit would there be in upgrading the chipset? It would only raise the cost of this already expensive watch. It's Tizen, it's a smartwatch, it doesn't need improvement in that area.

The differences lay in a better screen, slimmer lighter design, more storage and new health sensors. If these aren't important to you then stick with what you have, but don't reject it just because they haven't upgraded something that has no benefit to the watch performance.

.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 3] jgrobertson:
The difference with the Watch3 is in sensors, weight, size. It now can measure O2, blood pressure (future), EKG and do more complete sleep monitoring, as well as exercise monitoring and analysis. Yes it has the same processor and 25% less battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 3] farazehjaz:
Thanks for the feedback. Actually I recently shifted over to Android and I don't have. smart watch yet. Im looking for one. Apple usually upgrade their chipset so I was only assuming that other vendors might do the same.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 3] farazehjaz:
Which one would you recommend if I was looking for a watch with primarily health features. Someone recommended me the Garmin Venu or the Garmin Fenix 6 series. What do you guys say?
