[Sony Xperia XA2 Questions & Answers] aeolist:
I have a problem. I need to change SD cards (just a storage upgrade, it was supposed to be...) and have great troubles getting the SD card sled/holder out of its slot.

I already destroyed my fingernails, tried both short nails and long nails. Still hurts.

I wedged a thin slippery plastic sheet under the sled, trying to lift the sled up and then gnaw using fingernails, but to no avail

I overlaid a thin waxy paper over the edge of the sled to get a better grip, to no avail

I tried some tweezers (ill-fitting, failed to find a pair of precision tweezers with something like rubberized tips for better grip) but can't get a hold on the sled.

Alcohols or other non-watery lubricants are out of the question in that slot I think, there's paper(?)

Any suggestions or tricks as to how to remove the old SD card without destroying the hardware? Is the best way to order specialized kit (precision tools/tweezers/whatever) off the internet? I'm pissed off to have to shell out another 20-50€ and spend more time on this issue.

I inserted the original card with great troubles I remember some time in 2018. At the time I already thought that the "mechanism" is a piece of **** and unnecessarily troublesome because spring-loaded eject was a standard feature in the SAmsung devices I had before , but boy, today's in a whole different league of cumbersome. At the very least I know that I'll never buy Sony again if they kept this stupid design.
[Sony Xperia XA2 Questions & Answers] bobsright:
I bought a used XA2 and it had no SD sled, so I bought one. Problem was, the pins inside were messed up and SD card won't work. This is one of, if not the worst sony SD card slot designs. If it's not coming out don't force it. Chances are you'll bend a pin or two.
[Sony Xperia XA2 Questions & Answers] aeolist:
I have solved my problem using a slotted screwdriver, applying downward force and pulling sideways. The sled came out after some serious jiggling. The front is obviously scratched up but the remainder of the sled is intact and the slot seems to remain functional. After putting the sled back in, it seems now to come out normally (still a pain though). I switched the old 32G card for 256G and am unlikely to have to touch this slot ever again, so I'm pretty happy about having this resolved.

Sony is still nice enough to ship security updates quarterly to half-yearly; I hope this continues and I can get some more years of use out of the device.

Thank you all for reading.

Hey. The ROM works amazingly well!

Everything seems to work, and animations are beyond smooth.

I haven't really tested the camera yet, but apart from reading mode (for which one can install an app from play store eg. Night Light), everything is perfect. SUPER Smooth!

I was waiting very very eagerly for this ROM. I literally downloaded it the moment you made the links available.

In my haste to crack on with playing with my diamond - i flashed my diamond with a multitude of roms, before backing up my original! I think that my diamond is faulty - so i want to exchange it back at phones4u - i cant give them a phone with Dutty's rom on it - they might actually know what they are doing!:eek:

So has anyone got a backup of the rom that comes stock on the htc diamond from orange they can upload for me - i have searched - cant find anything, other than a french one! Or do you guys reckon it would be fine to pack it off with a stock htc rom?

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] R3PUBL1K:
If this is a new contract and as long as you are within the 14 days phones4u will replace it even without looking at the software of the phone (in my experiance) all they will check is the contents are correct. I dont think they do this for upgrades.

if you using Push mail you really dont need 3g on all the time. with just (G) my push mail is active 18 hours a day and the battery goes for at 36-48 hours - fine for my use.

I left my phone on the pad for charging and accidentally, looking for something else in Settings, found a rather strange set of settings...

Namely its was set for "adaptive refresh rate 120 Hz" + screen resolution on "WQHD+ 3088 x 1440" also Power mode was on "Optimized" ...

The option to change to adaptive refresh rate 120Hz was marked as "On" but at the same time was not highlighted as changeable...

It looks like 120 Hz active and working on WQHD+... Or it was just some glitch in the system...

Will it be a upgrade or downgrade?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Questions & Answers] BandOfBrothers1:
The adaptive refresh rate is nice and the s pen reacts better and the fps is much better.

The form factor i.e aesthetics is pretty much the same. OK the N20 Ultra is a little bit taller.

The display for some does seem to be a little more washed out.

The Exynos version does seem to have warming up issues and some say the screen on time isn't good on the Exynos or Snapdragon varients.

I'd say it's an incremental upgrade for the Ultra.

I wouldn't opt for the Note 20 due to it's cost.

It is not a downgrade. I had 10 and 10+. Now have a 20. For me flat screen is better. Also better camera and so important for me better zoom. Battery life is not so so but is better.

It is quite true, only camera is improved but all the rest is kinda worse.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Questions & Answers] qzan7:
The better battery and gameplay is because the screen had been downgrade to work with the poor processor. You could've easily turned the 10+ to a lower resolution to get better battery and gameplay. Only real update is the cameras.

I moved from note 10+ because of the new processor, camera, flat screen, and 5G. I take a lot of notes and flat screen vs curved is just better in my opinion.

OP7

OOS 10.0.7

Rooted, Magisk+TWRP

So far I have been using Blokada to stop ads and it's been a bliss, but the limitation of Android to only run one VPN at a time makes using another VPN a compromise.

Recently I decided to use NordVPN, but as the situation stays now, I must choose between really no ads (Blokada), or NordVPN, but rely on Nord's as filtering which isn't really doing much.

Can you recommend me some reliable Adblocking solutions for rooted phone that can work in parallel with NordVPN and do equally good job as Blokada is doing? I need to block apps across the whole system (apps, websites).

P.S. using YouTube Vanced, so that one is sorted.

Adguard dns without any app
[OnePlus 7 Questions & Answers] derei:
Isn't DNS ad-blocking problematic? I've been reading that apps and websites can detect ad- locking DNS and act strangely.

Also, some ISP may not like some DNS... What has been your experience with DNS Adblocking so far?
[OnePlus 7 Questions & Answers] :
Hi

I'm using OP7T OOS Beta 7 at the moment. I've been using Blokada for a short time and liked it a lot. But a minor was indeed not being able to combine it with a VPN from another provider. So I tried Blokada VPN. I had the feeling that it was working smoother than the VPN I'm always using. And I like the way they handle accounts. So you could use Blokada and VPN together if you pay for the VPN from Blokada.

So what stopped me using it? Having a long time subscription at NordVPN. I'm not using a vpn much lately. My setup is as follows:

- setup private dns under settings-networks-private dns: dns.adguard.com

- setup Adaway from FDroid (you need root)

- setup NordVPN. Beware to use the apk from the website and not from the Play Store. Only the apk from the website has working cybersec functionality. It can be used together with Adaway.

I've no problems using a dns server that blocks ads and malware. Neither do I have problems using hosts file based blocking like Adaway. Besides that I'm using browsers like Privacy Browser, Firefox nightly, Bromite and ungoogled chromium. And I try not to use apps with ads.
[OnePlus 7 Questions & Answers] derei:
Thanks, I made the same setup... Seems less strict compared to Blokada, but this I am sure is just a matter of hosts list in adaway.

Do you recommend any hosts in particular besides the ones already in Adaway?

Also, what kind of apps do you split tunnel in NordVPN? Or no need? Everything working as it should?
[OnePlus 7 Questions & Answers] :
Be sure to update hosts file in Adaway regularly. I haven't changed any sources in Adaway. Just the standard setup. It blocks system wide and I don't want it to be too strict. Maybe I want to reach a domain sometimes on some site without hassle. You can start up "dns log"in Adaway and then just use your phone like you always do. It then monitors every request. After a while you can go back to Adaway to view which requests occurred. From there you can block domains that were allowed. Or allow domains that were blocked.

I'm not using vpn a lot lately as I'm in my home country. I use it especially when I'm abroad in less privacy conscious countries. That's why I haven't split anything. But I would just it more, I would split apps like Signal private messenger which are end to end encrypted, and apps that don't seem to work well going through the vpn tunnel.

If you are really concerned about your privacy/ISP, then you should setup VPN always on, or force apps to use vpn tunnel by using a firewall. Although opinions differ on this. To me that's overkill anyway. Do you have apps still showing ads? Or do you mean ads while browsing websites?
[OnePlus 7 Questions & Answers] derei:
Yes, some apps are still showing placeholders. Didn't check all apps...but with Blokada I didn't even have the placeholders. Isn't a big nuisance, but if I can find a solution for it, for the better.

As for vpn usage... i just made some network speed tests... what do you see... it was better over the vpn. For some reason my isp was throttling my mobile (weird). So, I decided to allow NordVPN to always connect to the fastest server.

About tunneling, I was interested if any app misbehaves when on vpn (for example Netflix, or banking apps, if you personally encountered some issue).
[OnePlus 7 Questions & Answers] :
I keep apps with ads at a minimum, so probably that's why I haven't any problems like that. I remember having problems setting up Payconiq and Transferwise while on vpn. After finishing the setup, only Transferwise still gives problems while on vpn. I don't have streaming or social apps besides Telegram and Keybase.

That said, if I didn't have a subscription from NordVPN, I would use Blokada and pay for its vpn. Everything in one app. But in case speed is important, probably Nord is a better option.
