Running latest firmware as of Sept 30, 2020

Recently switched to ATT and want to get VoWiFi/VoLTE but CSC is not changing upon insertion of SIM Card.

Tried flashing various TMB, USC, CCT firmwares and no dice either. (I know all the carrier firmwares are essentially the same).

Phone is originally a Samsung Locked U1 with U firmware flashed.

CSC remains XAA/XAA/XAA

Tried going from N960U to U1 then back to U as well.

Any ideas?

I have 2 questions about my Mogul.

1- Is it possiable to change the default web browser to something other then PIE? for instance if i click on a link in my email i would like it to open in Opera Mini-Java, can taht be done? Or at least done in some other browser?

2 - Can i get Sprint TV on my phone yet? I know it was out there for a while as i had it, then it was deactivated. It is part of my plan and i would like to use it if i can. But i'm using DCD's latest ROM which doesn't have it, if it is possiable can someone package (or point me to) an installer?

And a shout out to all of you guys who do this stuff for beer and such these mod's are so amazing! :D

Thanks!

I don't know if this file will help or not.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] whatsit:
If you upgrade to the latest official Sprint ROM, you will get SprintTV included/installed along with it.

You can find the latest official ROM here:

http://www.htc.com/us/FAQ_Detail.aspx?p_id=75&act=sd (3.56)

As far as using another browser as your default, I'm afraid I just put up with PIE and have never looked at switching. I presume it is a registry setting.

Try looking at:

HKEY_Classes_Root\http\Shell\Open\Command and change the default value to your preferred browser. Like I said, I've never done it, but it makes sense to me. :p

Let me know if that works.

Thanks.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] nitro66215:
And that's how I got the cab. After installing the rom... clicking on Sprint TV... brought the dialog for the CAB file. LOL
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] dschoenike:
there's a thread on the development and hacking page called jzsmartmort. it'll allow you to change your default browser to whatever you want (opera mini, skyfire etc). its worked for me, and pretty simple to do. install a cab and click the option you like within the jzsmartmort prog.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] jambrose:
It looks like there are a huge number of "mime" types in the HKCR branch like \HKCR\http\Shell\Open\Command that points to IE. So you would have to change all these to point to Opera and cross your fingers it works.

EDIT: Use the JZ SmartMort it is sweet: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=382043

Or you could just use my Opera Mini or Java Pack located in my signature.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] studentjunk:
I believe it is the right key. My pda opens up in opera mobile 8.65 when I follow email links. I didn't know how it knew to do that. Checking this key shows that it is set to

"\Program Files\Opera\OperaLaunch.exe" %1
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] jschramm97:
Perfect!

GC's installer worked perfect as well as the installer for the Sprint TV, infact i'm watching it now, now if i could just get the audio from Sprint TV to go through my Bluetooth headset i'd be set!

Thanks alot all!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] -Slow-:
You might try BTaudio. I have used it to send audio from wm player to my headset. I don't know why it wouldn't work for TV as well.

Just saw the specs of P5....Poor resolution upgrade!

I guess it's pointless and waste of money....what are your thoughts?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JimSmith94:
Since our security updates will end this month, I plan to upgrade for those and take advantage of the strong T-Mobile 5G signal in my area.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
My thoughts?

If you only now just saw the specs you haven't been following the news. You likely also do not understand why Google didn't go with the 865/865+ in the two devices.

For me, it boils down to which features I consider more important. Right now I'm leaning towards the P5 simply because of the aluminum body, but the 4A 5G and its headphone jack is compelling. I think in the end, it's going to boil down to "do I want to pay the extra $200 or not?"

Coming from the 2XL... The 5 is an upgrade. As far as the ppi... https://www.androidauthority.com/chasing-pixels-810926/ this article from AA is very good and I'm sure I won't notice it much. But I am going to wait for reviews and actually see it side by side

In case you missed topjohnwu's tweets:

https://twitter.com/topjohnwu/status/1311370798267990016

Ive never been one of the sheeple, the people who buy into aspirational technology (people who aspire to own somehting because its new and everyone else has one), so its not even a decision for me. Im a fucntional user, if a device performs the functions i need it to, im happy. The only reason i ever upgrade devices is when one is dead, or very much close to being....

I do not get the "new device every 6 months" buyers...i just dont, i think thats insanity

Personally i look at the lines of sheeple at Apple Stores on every release and weep for humanity, and the planet which gets raped to bring people ovepriced (thanks to Apple - they are the root of all evil, not least because they overprice their products, thereby forcing everyone in the market to follow suit, because to do anythign less is to be seen as inferior, so blame Apple, i do, asshat comapny) devices they dont really need

Pretty much the forumula is: new phone = new camera that takes pictures of an even more distant galaxy, hmm very useful in every day life

Some people in some countries have way too much spare money if theyre buying new phones all the time

Im sticking with what works for me, not a corporations bottom line, thanks

[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] 100rabh7791:
I loved the Pixel 5. I think Google made a small decision to stick with full hd resolution simply because you don't notice as such if the panel is good. It's easy on the battery. It will be easy on the chipset and provide consistent performance.

Pixel 5 does not lack anything as such. The only thing i was a bit disappointed was ufs 2.1 storage. Other than that I'm loving the Pixel 5. I'll get it maybe this Christmas or so!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] sharkie405:
The more I think about it, the more the 4a5g is looking like the better deal. Only differences between it and the five are two less gigabytes of RAM, no 90hz refresh, and a smaller battery, but the battery is still bigger than the 2xl, so battery life should still be an improvement. I've not yet owned a phone that had a 90hz refresh rate, so that's not really a huge deal to me yet.

The big draw toward the 4a5g for me personally is that the screen is bigger, which would make it feel like more of an upgrade compared to the 2XL.

The materials used are also different, but I've never really been a huge fan of glass backs. Plastic was always all right with me, so the 4a5g won't bother me in that regard. It supposedly feels pretty good in the hand even though its materials are "lesser than” the materials used for the 5 back.

Forgot about wireless charging too, but personally I've never owned a phone that had wireless charging, so again, not a big deal for me yet.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] amandeepparmar:
I second your thoughts here. 4a5 is certainly a better handset and not much hard hitting on the pocket too!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] ZombieUsr:
So far with lack of reviews and having seen a few of the random videos we can get. The OnePlus 8 Pro is looking better to me. Really need to see some full reviews
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] sharkie405:
I kind of agree with you here, except that I am seriously looking at going the OnePlus 8T route.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] ossito2012:
I am changing my mind to OnePlus 8 Pro too, I can go to swappa.com and get for less price than P5 with taxes. I am seriously considering going back to iPhone. Google has been using the same camera sensor hardware since the Pixel 2 came out. That means if Google ported the sofware algorithms to the Pixel 2 it would take pictures the same if not damn close to being the same.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] imaverik:
after being a 4 year pixel 2 xl owner... the pixel 5 feels like a natural successor. Jut my opinion though
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] droidbot1337:
i currently use a pixel 3 because i prefer the size but im pretty much done with the pixel series. the cost is far too high and the features are less and less. the 4 had no fingerprint reader..... so i was thinking of getting a Zenfone 7. great size, great amount of ram........ EXPANDABLE STORAGE!!! but after seeing the OnePlus Nord N10, i might change my mind. ill have to see after the first reviews but it has what i want/need in a phone. google is just too obsessed with trying to either win the apple crowd, or become like apple.

maybe if they ever add features like expandable storage ill buy another pixel but the odds of that happening are not good. knowing google, theyll probably give up on the pixel line after the pixel 7 so i plan on holding on to my Panda Pixel indefinitely.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] 100rabh7791:
Okay i changed my decision probably.

I don't think i'll be getting Pixel 5 solely because of outdated hardware. Only if they had upgraded the camera sensors i'd have gone for it. The current sensor is at the end of its life.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] YoshiFan501:
I can't decide if I want to get a OP8T, OP8 Pro, or Pixel 5.

I prefer the flat screen of the 5 and 8t, the rear fingerprint sensor on the 5, and the telephoto on the 8 pro.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] michaelbsheldon:
Get rid of P2-XL?

Depends on your battery. After October, no more OTA's from Google.

If your battery is good, between updates from Google Play Store and LineageOS, I think the phone

would be plenty secure. I plan to keep using mine for awhile. running LineageOS
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] 100rabh7791:
lol Flat screen is such a bliss. My next phone will be a flat screen. I am tired of this curved look and miss touches due to the curve
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] thewraith420:
I went from. The p2xl to the 5, it's definitely an upgrade for me. I love how smooth it feels with the extra ram and 90hs screen, the SD765g has no trouble giving me a great experience on the couple games I do play, (pubg and genshin impact) the battery life for me is about double what the 2xl was and I'm happy to know I'll be getting monthly security updates for the next three years. There are still a couple things I don't like. The top behind the screen speaker is just so-so, far inferior to the 2xl's stereo front firing speakers. However I don't watch or listen to much without headphones or a bt speaker anyways and it does fine for calls. they removed a feature I did actually like.. active edge, I miss sweezing to activate assistant rather than saying hey Google or swiping the corner but still not really a deal breaker for me just so thing to get used to.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Which is perhaps the one major reason I will likely go with the 4a 5g. Google really did drop the ball when it comes to not including active edge, but I'm fairly certain someone has an alternative means of calling up the assistant, either through gestures or through the fingerprint sensor.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] vivebatu:
Pixel 5 hardware is really a downgrade from 2xl imho - lower ppi screen, no active edge, no front firing stereo speakers, smaller sensor on the front camera, non-flagship processor ( maybe slightly better than 835 but not a generational leap), uninspiring colors ( miss the panda🐼), lot of corners cut there..the only reason to buy the pixel 5 seems to be to get the latest and greatest software updates from Google but am not sure if it's worth paying the extra dollars since there is likely a generational leap in hardware coming up next year (upgraded camera hardware at the minimum I think)
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jerryhou85:
Just saying my 2XL battery is pretty much dead, Screen On Time 45 mins or less...

I guess for upgrade or for future support, I'd get a 5.

As I hear it says another true flagship coming out next March, I am sitting on the fence to see how it rolls out.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] vivebatu:
Seems something is cooking! If true, the pro variant looks to be a proper flagship, although only rumours for now

Picked this up from Amazon and in my opinion it's just as good. I have a D-brand skin on my LG G7 and I can't tell the difference, at least for the last few days that I have it now. I had a Amazon gift card balance so basically got it for free but for that price it's a great deal. Several options and colors are also available.

Note: If you want the back only just write to them right after you place your order. I sometimes use a magnet case when I use it in my car and skins that wrap all the way around aren't always case friendly.
[Google Pixel 4a Accessories] jericho246:
I just ordered one of the SopiGuard skins on eBay. Never heard of them before watching J. Williams on YouTube review the Honeycomb skin.

I picked the Gloss Wine Red one. Unfortunately it's gonna take some time to arrive as I'm from Europe and Sopiguard is based in the US... I'll try to post some pictures once I receive the skin and put it on my Pixel 4a. (y)
[Google Pixel 4a Accessories] jericho246:
EDIT: I effed up when applying the SopiGuard skin, so I had to remove it. I ordered a EasySkinz one, and it came with two skins: a back-only and a full body wrap one. I applied the back-only option because it was easier to apply. Looks okay I guess.

Hopefully it doesn't start to peel off in a month :D

I'm looking for a keyboard that will be fullscreen on the small screen and half screen on the big screen. So far I've been making due when SwiftKey. It's easy to accidentally make the keyboard fullscreen and then it takes a lot of steps to make its half screen again. Other than the Samsung keyboard, what are you guys using?

I tried Gboard but I have the tablet view on the big screen and for some reason gboard won't do half screen on it.

You can try doing a hard reboot (simulates pulling battery). If that fails and it was a OTA update you can try a factory reset to purge the user data.
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Questions & Answers] agent007bond:
Have you tried charging while turned off? It can't ask you to restart if it's turned off :P Of course, you cannot use the phone while charging.

But if you're trying it with the phone turned on and you happen to have an AMOLED screen, you can enable ambient display with the battery information. You'll see a lightning symbol next to the battery percentage when it's charging. You can check this any time without touching the phone.

I also sometimes face a similar problem, but if I don't touch the phone it charges fine. I haven't figured out a permanent solution yet, but I'm suspecting it's my original stock cable that's now quite old and starting to fray. Shame, I have to purchase a new one soon.

Just a heads up for those wanting glass screen protectors, Zag is selling them now (unlike Google Store at time of writing) and not sure why but got a big discount. 2 of the Glass Elite VisionGuard+for*Google Pixel 5 for $75 after tax and shipping. They gave me a 30% off discount.

Probably get them cheaper later, but last time we got phones on release date (Pixel 2) we didn't get screen protectors until a week after the phones showed up. So this time we got cases and screen protectors right away.

Liquid glass

Bro liquid glass is the way to go. I have been through a ton of glass screen protectors on the 2 XL and they all suck, even the expensive ones. I got liquid glass and never looked back. P5 might be different because the screen is flat, but I'm getting liquid glass anyway. You can always do liquid and throw a glass screen on top of it.

I had mine applied at Fixit Mobile, and I believe they use WowFixit. From what I have read, the products all use Silicon Dioxide as the main ingredient. I don't know that much about the product, except that it works well, it's not noticeable, and does resist fingerprints somewhat. It's not perfect for fingerprints, but I haven't got any scratches in about a year. I have heard that you should reapply after a year, so I probably need to reapply. I will do some research and make a post at some point. I plan to do liquid glass on my P5, so I should post something in the next 2-3 weeks. This is something I looked at recently.
