[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] HiM@L:
Hi,

I have t mobile s9+ but got it unlocked after paying in full. Now I am with at&t .

My phone is stuck with Android 9 December update. How do i force Android 10 update?

If i were to use ODIN, which firmware should i use: t-mobile, at&t or unlocked ?

I would prefer unlocked but don't want to mess it up.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Thinking about the new Smartwatch 3 but I don't want things like Bixby or Newsfeed on there at all.

It looks like you can't remove these features/apps through the interface. Is there some other way like ADB? If not, can I at least disable these things completely?
[Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 Questions & Answers] bigodinho22:
So, basically my gf M2 just bricked after some time doing sketchy screens.

Not going too in depth:

- Stock rom, no root

- Device is locked

- Not able to boot, freezes at asus logo, the same for recovery mode

- Only able to boot in fastboot mode

I have tried a couple of unlocking methods from the forum, but none of them worked, so i couldn't install another firmware, also, cant

fastboot -w

since the device is locked

Is there anything i can do?
[Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 Questions & Answers] cheremenin:
Last Christmas I gave my gf this phone, and it did the same after about a year of use.

Apparently it just hard bricks itself eventually, sooner or later, likely caused by a bad FOTA from ASUS.

Looks like they are offering free replacements in SOME countries, such as India. I'm not there, and my official local support has basically told me to go and repair it in a service centre, and all they can offer is full motherboard replacement, which costs MORE than a NEW Max Pro M2 costed. Which is honestly complete bull****. So far we've decided to buy something new, and NOT from Asus.

By the way, does "adb devices" see your phone? Mine isn't even recognized properly.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] dfight:
Hi I'm using whyred redmi note 5 pro.

With miui 12.1 xiaomi.eu 20.6.18 beta and stock kernel.

Android 9. Orange Fox recovery.

2020-07-05 Android security patch level.

I liked to dirty flash because of only few steps.

Just download, flash, install magisk, wipe.

Then I can get new monthly security path.

I'm already used this way for almost 1 year.

Eu team stop weekly updating this device now so I just want to change to stable version.

But the stable Eu rom's update date showed in Eu website is not new.

So I want to change new rom with monthly security update.

Before doing this, do I need to change recovery?

I've heard about the difference between Android 9 and Android 10.

I really don't know how to join in,

I remember in Android 8 up to Android 9 I changed to orange Fox recovery.

Now so many roms in this forum is Android 10.

Is that easy from 9 to 10 from recovery wiping and flashing?

And which rom is your favorite and recommended?

I will try it in my leisure time. Thank you.

Official LOS have weekly if they have lucky :laugh:, havoc and crdroid have montly I think
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] drnightshadow:
To go back to MIUI use fastboot ROM and flash it with MI Flasher tool -- important or you can brick your phone !!

Most of ROMs are based on LOS ROM.

I'm happy user of LOS ROM (official).

I never use fingers on bars (like volume, etc..) I'm using buttons. You can even extend steps with easy hack (module).

Power button action is always settupable ( like long press on screen off is gonna turn torch on, run camera on lock screen, extended power menu, etc). Same vol+ and vol - buttons (wake up phone, take screenshot,etc). Well and much more. All under settings. You didn't use it long time couse you wanna MIUI experience on other ROMs. You can forget that. LOS is Android ROM without balast.

You can load apps later if you want (gapps, full screen guestures, dual apps, etc). Its up to user decision and habits.

Don't compare ROMs like you did. Try to use it at least 1 week and mybe you'll discover some of the magic of ROM. I saw module to make for vol bars horizontally and big as hell :D even my grany could see that..( mybe you can try xposed app gravitybox to adds some extra options).

Good luck.

[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] Iceman79*!:
My family has 4 A70s. They all worked fine until about a month ago when my wife's phone started having sporatic issues with wifi. Then last week my sons phone decided to go into a bootloop and after factory reset decided it didn't even want to turn on anymore. Samsung directed me to a local shop (UbreakiFix) which is where it currently remains with unknown solution. My phone three days ago started having random network connection issues that affected text, calls, and internet but not always at the same time and regardless of a wifi connection). Went to the Xfinity store Tuesday afer work and they looked at it and gave me a new sim hoping that would work. It only lasted 5 minutes out the door. Popping out the sim try and then re-inserting would reset it for a little bit but it would always go back to no connection even though I have full signal. Also, a software network reset would do the same thing but it eventually goes back to a virtual brick. I have done two factory resets with but neither helped the issue. I went to the Xfinity store again tonight, as I walked in to the empty store the rep asked me what he could help me with... I held up my phone and he said "Let me guess... Samsung A70?" He proceeded to tell me that I was the 9th A70 owner to come in today with the same exact issue. He had already talked to the regional manager and Samsung is aware of the issue... but he can't give me a new phone right now and what I was doing with the network reset is the only "fix" or partial solution they can offer at this time. He advised that Samsung has indicated they will being doing a recall for all the A70s and replacing them with the A71. He was not sure on a timeframe but was hoping notification would go out before the weekend. Until that time I'm stuck with a jacked up phone that is two weeks old, I actually lost my original in Yellowstone two weeks ago, but can only make calls after a network reset and then it typically hangs up about 3 minute into a call at which time I have to go through the whole network reset, rebot, and then try again. I really hope that Samsung does the right thing here and if the A71 is not the same size as the A70 I'm going to be extra pissed off since I would then have to get new cases and screen protectors. So frustrating!
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] ginorocKZZ:
Wow if that happens u will be lucky since u will be getting a phone with much new processor and camera module and also much improved panel..
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sunspark:
Will be interesting to see if this turns out to be true. I wonder what the issue is, that it's so bad they can't fix it with software and need to do a hardware recall? Mine has been completely stable and reliable.

The last big hardware recall I remember was the Note 7 for obvious reasons. Hardware recalls are not common.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] redline06:
I received my Note20Ultra today and absolutely love it. However, theres this small quirk the camera post processing keeps wanting to adjust after taking a picture in very low light.

I attached a screen recording of the instance which you can view to see for yourselves.

I apologize for my immigrant ass music lol I didnt realize it was capturing mic sounds too ?

I guess I can't attach a video but I uploaded it to Samsung link share so heres the link for that

https://linksharing.samsungcloud.com/zS2NInk4tIVK

So I wanted to take a pic of the cruise control buttons in focus but with the gauges having a really nice natural bokeh to them.

But right after taking the picture I'll quickly go to view it and actually like what I see, but theres a little circle at the bottom spinning like its loading something.

Once done loading the picture turns to absolute garbage.

I tried turning scene optimizer off but that didnt do anything, turning HDR off helped a little but not much.

Its a weird shot I know but my Note 10+ does it just fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] redline06:
For comparison this is the same type of shot I took with my Note10+

Love that the shadows stayed pitch black, even while moving.

I have that song stuck in my head now, even though I have no clue what the lyrics are about!

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Nastrahl:
If I'm not wrong, for taking a good enough picture in low light you have to keep the shutter of the camera open for more time, to be able to capture more light.

It's a long exposure.

What you see "loading something" is the actual time it keeps the shutter open.

During its process you have to be still until it finishes or it will result a blurry picture.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] redline06:
You are correct in the fact that a camera needs extended shutter time to take in more light for low light but thats not what I was referring to here.

I was talking about the loading circle AFTER the picture was taken, the one where Im viewing the photo and it suddenly changes from a nice shot to an over exposed mess lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] cpufrost:
The night mode carries over from the S20 Ultra. Hate it when I have a decent capture and post adds weird chroma and focusing artifacts. I was hoping this would be fixed but nope. It's even more pronounced because you're coming from a Note10+...

For best results in those scenarios is to use pro mode, adjust your ISO to the lowest possible where the shutter speed still allows for reasonable lack of motion blur. If everything is rock solid (tripod and stationary subject), you can get some nice shots @50ISO and whatever shutter speed is required for decent exposure.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] redline06:
Looking at the data of the photo it does look like it jacked the ISO up to 1600 which is ridiculous lol

Appreciate the input, looks like PRO mode for weird shots like this is the go to feature.

Other than this little scenario this camera is amazing, not saying the Note10+ is bad by any means because it has been my favorite camera to shoot with, up until now.

Choose the .img you want and flash it from your current recovery onto the recovery slot.

Then reboot into recovery.

Or choose the .tar and flash from odin

You must be aware though that your previous backups will not restore .

You should read this next section carefully.

Ok, I list my steps step by step below:

- Boot into TWRP:

- Format Data -> yes;

- I checked if Mounting was ticked on Data - yes, it is;

- Then, WITHOUT REBOOTING:

- Installed the no-verity-no-encrypt_ashyx script;

- Installed the script Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_Quota_08.02.2019;

- Installed Magisk;

- Made backup TWRP -> successful!

- Rebooted into a clean system and configured it, enabled USB Debugging;

- Rebooted to TWRP;

- Checked if all the checkmarks were in place;

- Launched TWRP backup;

- After 619 seconds, I received a full TWRP backup (successfully);

- Rebooted into TWRP again and restored the backup (successfully);

- Rebooted into the system;

- BOOTLOOP !!! (((
