[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] jakontil:
they are not visible on dark? what do you mean? what makes them most visible?

usually a hot pixel is easily seen on dark background, whereas a dead pixel is on the white or bright background, which are yours?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Black93300ZX:
Look at the pic, his almost looks like it has a burn effect... Not an individual pixel, almost like a section of them are tainted.

Don't push too hard on the touch screen? :-\ Idk, best of luck in fixing it.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] vipinholland:
I have the same as "trem"
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Vector-SS:
They are more like smudges with no clear beginning or end. On white backgrounds they are yellowish (like in the above pic - full screen only- very bottom)

On grey backgrounds (for ex. start up screen) they are white. On a black screen they are not even noticeable. On colors, barely

And as for pushing hard, I didn't even get the chance as it was like that out of the box :(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] torik:
Mine screen has these yellow things too. is it faulty? Noticeable at only white screen and at the bottom.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Riel:
It's not dead pixel but a screen failure.

You sure you have no bubbles of air under your screenprotector or have original screenprotector still on it?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] jakontil:
from the problem reported, seems as if i am the unlucky one with defective pixel on my screen......

darn, should have brought the pocketlcd tester with me and test it on the spot, but weird is the shop claims each of every diamond got the same pixel problem, is it really that bad?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Vector-SS:
No these crappy looking smudges were showing from the first start up.:mad:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Nuri58:
Higly relevant observation. Dead pixels on LCD is a common problem. That's why there're different "grades" of LCDs, eg. a class aaa menanig that the producer guaranties max N bad pixels. If you have more you can have the LCD replaced ay no cost if not bad luck. I have found nowhere that HTC is "rating" its LCD in which case you need more than one bad pixel; rather 2% or a full line or row. Good point, although I never experienced it on a HTC.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Vector-SS:
Yes it looks like it.

I contacted HTC America today and my phone is going in for a warranty repair. Even though it's not very noticeable unless it's on a white screen, for some reason, I can't live with it as it is a sore to my eye. And for the price I paid, I better have a damn near perfect unit. :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] zeroO:
Thanks for this valuable information, all this time i thought it was a burnt pixel and was very upset .

[MX Player] yojlik:
BUG-"Open with..." icon present in omnibox on every page when installed on Pixelbook

On my Pixelbook on the beta channel (though I've verified this happens in stable as well), the Open with... icon appears in the omnibox on every page regardless of content asking if it should be opened with MX Player Pro:

I believe this is because there is a wildcard in the Supported Links for MX Player Pro as shown here:

As shown in the screenshot, Open Supported Links is set to Don't Open in This App and Instant Apps is set to off and yet I am still asked on every page if I'd like MX Player Pro to open it. If I allow it to do so, the page simply reloads and asks again. If I tell it to do so every time, Chrome stops working entirely and requires the removal of MX Player Pro to restore functionality. I've tried to find a legitimate reason why there would be a wildcard in the Supported Links for an Android app and have found nothing, but I'm not a developer and searching for asterisks is difficult :)

I realize Chrome OS might not be the top priority for this app but it is far and away the best media player for the OS so I would suggest that maybe it could use a little attention. I don't have any other Chrome OS devices to test against, but I'm willing to troubleshoot if need be.
[MX Player] MXPlayer:
Based on the information provided, it seems to be a platform bug. The system is not supposed to prompt to select an app when it's set to "Don't open in this app". Also, we would like to clarify that the wild card host matching is a very common practice, which you can see in most of the apps. It shouldn't cause any such issues when the intent filter has additional rules such as MIME type or path patterns with extensions.

Could you try disabling the "play media links" option on MX Player Settings > General and check again? If the problem persists, we recommend you to contact the Chromebook support team for further assistance on this as we have very limited scope for the improvement in this.
[MX Player] yojlik:
I've confirmed Play media links is unchecked and the problem persists.

Looking at various Google support lists it does appear this feature has significant bugs, including appearing when it shouldn't for various other apps in inexplicable circumstances. Thanks for looking into it.

Hi all,

Because of the delay of the ring in the incoming calls I am missing a lot of then and calling back to much.

I would like to change the time when an unanswered call goes to the voicemail service from 15 to 30 sec. I am doing that in the start->config->phone->services

I always receive the same answer from Vodafone: "The net changes were not saved, try later or disconnect the data connection and try again"

I have not data connection at all (I think so).

Any Idea?

[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] neonpolaris:
I'm partial to my current phone's case, Spigen Tough Armor, with its kickstand and all, and they have a version for the Pixel 5. However, I'm worried its thickness might cause issues with wireless charging. It's not as bulky as some Otterboxes and such but it's been a while since I've had wireless charging so I'm not up with the state of things. How finnicky is wireless charging these days? Yes still, or not so much?
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] dudeman1st:
Wireless charging doesn't work through metal, afaik. Other than that, google it and let us know the results.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] ShadowDragon:
They claim it works with wireless charging. It did with my 3XL, so I ordered it for the 5.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] vandyman:
The Pixel 5 specs are 4mm charging distance.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] jimv1983:
As long as you don't use a metal case it will work but it will be less efficient with the case. Wireless charging is already very inefficient (and therefore bad for battery life) as it is.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] wilbur-force:

[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] vandyman:
Kind of odd the Pixel 5 has an aluminum metal case body and it has wireless charging.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] JimSmith94:
It has a cutout in the back to allow for wireless charging.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] jimv1983:
I'm wondering if it really is a cutout in the back or if the charging coil is just on the outside of the phone but under the "bio-resin" coating. There would still have to be some small cutout to get a cable through but it would help structurally integrity by not needing as big of a hole.

I'm very curious to see a tear down video.

Although this replay is late and probably no longer relevant the Pixel 5 charges just fine though a tough Armor
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] RedCatRed:
A cover up !

______

I use both the Unicorn Beetle and the Kezi-Home and if I had to choose it would be the latter simply because I really don't like the front cover on the former and can be 'damaged' or worn if removed often. They are both outstanding and the kickstand on the Beetle is perfection to my mind and only wish I could fit them inside one another :). I don't experience any wireless charging issues with either case on, though is perhaps due to the 25,000MA bank I use.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] V0latyle:
As long as the case isn't metal, it shouldn't cause a problem with wireless charging. There -may- be a slight drop in power transfer (longer charging times) if the case is particularly thick, as wireless charging is designed with the intent for the phone to be in direct contact with the charging pad, but it shouldn't be a significant problem.

[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Navyvet63:
So I'm trying to make some changes to my apns-config file but since it is system I am unable to edit. How can I change the properties to allow me to do it? I'm currently on OB2. I've tried numerous root explorers and file explorer in android studio.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:
Root explorer allows me to edit anything.

You need to pay for it.. Plus root access has to be requested and accepted.

I've used it today in lower level files and folders.

Once I'm in the file i use an app called quick edit to edit actual files, this program also requests root.

This one's free
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Navyvet63:
I must be using a different Root Explorer. It doesn't have any option to pay for it. It's by Speed Software. Is it the same?
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Navyvet63:
I went to play store and checked my purchases and I paid for it back 2013 so I'm guessing I am using the same one as you yet I still can't edit. Anything I try fails.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:
What are you editing? And what with?

Is it a file you're opening? If so what with? If it's a text file then it'll need also to be root enabled.

Hence why I use quick edit..normal editors don't have root access so cannot save to restricted areas.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Navyvet63:
Total commander text editor and I tried Quick Edit. It's the apns-config.xml file. I have some apn tweaks I want to try out.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:
Where is that file I'll try

Only other reason might be because it's contiguous, in which case just copy it then edit then overwrite.

product/etc

Lol literally just found out

---------- Post added at 05:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:57 AM ----------

Yep same issue here can't edit. Try to make a copy that's possible. Then edit, then copy back.

You may need to change permissions within the file.

Root explorer: press and hold, permissions, allow read/write
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:
Gets the permissions I've got.

So I guess just add write
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Navyvet63:
THX will try
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Navyvet63:
I've tried all of that to no avail. I would think I could at least change the permissions.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Lossyx:
You can't edit system, product, vendor. They all are read only on stock. This is because of the new partition system introduced by Google on devices launched with Android 10.

Nothing you can do about it. You now have to rely on magisk.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Navyvet63:
I'm on Magisk. Can you elaborate?
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Lossyx:
You need to use a module of some sort. Create one yourself with the edited file so magisk "replace" it systemless-ly.

[Shift General] nbos04:
OK, I know there was a thread that covered games before, but it focused on the Vista side. Though there were some posts about games on the WM side, it was limited.

I've been able to figure out that most applications work (though some REALLY SLOWLY like Touch Commander), but games? This is a completely different issue. I spend a lot of time in airports and would really like my shift to be able to play some of the games my phone (O2 Zinc) does.

Of course we have some problems here - no dedicated soft buttons or application buttons like on a phone (at least none without the Keyboard, and I don't even know if there are "keyboard" ones less the arrors and "Sym"/"OK" keys). Also there is RAM issues, but that should not stop all games. Should it?:(

So, the question stands - What games do and don't work. So far I know what doesn't:

My Little Tank (Astraware)

Revival (HeroCraft)

Gone in 60 Seconds (HeroCraft)

Of course I do not really why the above don't walk but it probably has something to do with the screen. It does not seem to be RAM as there is at least 15-18MB (pending on my application installation) of free RAM for programs. :confused:

Any way - thougts and opinions :)

[G3 General] LGAddict:
I needed to update my LG G3-D855 to a the version Lineage 17 since some apps stopped working on the old version.

However, in ignorance the LG backup/restore feature was used to backup the phone, creating a .lbf file on PC. Now it appears there is no way to restore from the file on Lineage. I have enabled the developer options and USB debugging, but the LG bridge tool does not even recognize the phone (no device detected). Is there any way to extract information from the backup?

Thank you for thy great help.
[G3 General] LGAddict:
I was able to extract all the files from the backup .lbf using https://xdaforums.com/android/general/tool-lg-restore-com-lge-bnr-lbf-file-t4053579/ as guide.

However, this presents a new problem. The contacts, messages and call logs are _DB files (not .db files, the file type is "file"). How to convert these to something that can be imported by Lineage 17?
[G3 General] LGAddict:
Ok, so the _DB files are actually .tar files containing the .db files. But now there is again a new issue, how to import the .db files to Lineage?

I tried to directly copy and paste the contacts2.db to the contact database directory, but this breaks the contacts entirely on the phone. I also installed SQLite Expert, checked the user and scheme version on the new and old .db file and edited the old .db to match. No difference...

Apparently the .db can be converted to .vcf which can be directly imported by the phone. However, I did not find any way to convert the .db to .vcf on windows...

Start Menu just lists "Today" and "coldinit" - system behaving strangely

I've been using NTS Jaguar for maybe half a year with no problems.

3.08

3.08

02 25 11

10.1.0.811

Then a few days ago the phone started behaving strangely, I would go to turn it on and it would do nothing but a black screen, with the LED blinking green. I'd pull out the battery to restart it. Once I saw the bootloader. Now the Start Menu lists nothing but "Today" and "coldinit" with an application icon. I can open Contacts and Calendar, but Messaging is completely missing from the Today screen, and if I try to send a text message from Contacts, nothing happens. If I press the wireless button, camera button, messaging button, or IE button, it says something about not being able to run or find the shortcut. The contacts and calendar buttons work, though. The latest restart it said "No Service" and then went black. Is it dying? Is there a fix? Is there a way to run programs without the Start menu?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] endolith:
