[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] voyager_s:
Informative thread. My 4A should arrive tomorrow. Exciting! I have high hopes for this device. Been searching for a good 5.5 to 6 inch device for what seems like forever. Who would have thought it would be so difficult to find in 2020?

Tried to get the pixel 5 but it is sold out everywhere. Madness! So I have decided to go for the 4A. Probably be the better choice for me anyway. Smaller form factor.

My main concern is the ram management really. I hope it is ok and apps do not get killed off aggressively. Will use it for a week and see how it performs. Any problems and I will send it back!
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] Pollie81:
I almost forgot about this topic..

Fun thing is, in there mean time i bought a pixel 4a.

I wanted to test one out as my partner needed a new phone anyway.

I love it! Great size, fast and fluid enough.. i don't even notice the performance differences compared to the Nord. The Nord is noticeably smoother but the pixel 4a is still really smooth, smooth enough for me.

Great battery life and a freakin great camera!

So much better compared to OnePlus.

I really love being back on stock Android, this also reminds me of the Nexus days.

By the end of the week my 4a will go to my partner as i will receive my pixel 5.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] tye_time:
Yeah it's the perfect size for usability I think, I really want to try out the astrophotography mode so i'll be a cheap tripod and test it out on a clear night.

I did look at the Pixel 5, but I really couldn't justify spending almost double the price here in the UK for minimal upgrades... I don't think the 4a 5G was worth the extra £150 either. Enjoy the 5!

The obsession with massive phones need to stop. Maybe Google will start a trend of smaller and more usable handsets from now on!

I have not noticed any issues with apps getting killed - to be honest I only really use about 5 apps so maybe if you were using a lot more then it would be noticeable.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] voyager_s:
Yep 5.8 is the sweet spot I think too. I still have my old s8 in a draw somewhere. Has not been used for over a year due to the poor performance (I blame the exynos soc). But the form factor and size was very good. I expect the 4A to be even better as it is even smaller but same screen size.

Funnily enough, I recently bought and tried the Huawei mate 20X. A monster. 7.2 inch screen. Sent it back after a week. Too much to handle. It pretty much reemphasized the fact that I prefer a much smaller device. Can't wait for tomorrow!
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] Pollie81:
I totally agree on the price difference between 4a and 5 but it's just that i can't help myself. ?

The differences aren't big but they do make the 5 perfect and i really love a good wide angle camera.

Perfect size, nice weight (4a 5g is substantially heavier), perfect processor and RAM, 90hz display, water resistant etc.. and also a better finish with much more grip, the 4a is really slippery and this time i don't want to use a case because it destroys the feel.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] voyager_s:
The pixel arrived. Haven't taken my fingers off it since! It is such a nice design and fit. love the size. Setting up everything which takes forever as always. So far so good!
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] badflife:
I envy all of you. Here in Germany it is really hard to get one. Hopefully I will get it in two weeks.

I have a Xiaomi MI9T Pro. The device is great. But its just too big and heavy. I will sell it for 300€. Bought it last year for 350€ so i can live with the -50€.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] AstroDigital:
OnePlus Nord was never sold in Canada, but OnePlus says it will support all devices for 3 years and that maybe but they are not quick about it. I like the clean Google experience, may never buy a OnePlus device again they are deviating from a clean Google like experience and becoming more expensive.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] suku_patel_22:
Well I moved from OnePlus 7T to Pixel 4A because I was tired of Oxygen OS and it's quirks.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] voyager_s:
I have decided to return it...lol. it is a great device and I do like it as I've said in previous posts. Size is ace. But this is the second device along with the mate 20x as well, that I will be returning after trying.

Both devices have served to show me how good and how much I still prefer my other phone. Honor V20! Been using v20 for almost 2 years now and I keep coming back to it. Just such a great device and updated to android 10 too. So will go back to that for now. Until I can truly find a replacement. If I didn't have the v20 I would for sure keep the 4A or even maybe try the pixel 5. Enjoy the 4a guys. Great device.

UPDATE... I've decided to keep it after all. Will use it in tandem with the v20. Switch back and forth. I love the size too much to let it go.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] miqcea3:
I came from a OnePlus 7 Pro which i sadly broke front and and back glass. Was a really nice device altough a bit to big and heahy.

Only things i miss on the 4a are the ultrawide lense, alert slider and the plethora of custom roms. I love the size and feel of it.

[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] suku_patel_22:
I am coming from an OnePlus 7T, because oi hated Oxygen OS. I am not missing anything except the screen size. I would have bought the 4A5ag of it was sold in India.

The performance and battery life is excellent for me with my 180 apps + work profile.

730G/6GB/128GB is the perfect performance recipie if you are not into gaming.

There have been zero multitasking issues or missed notifications.

Go for Pixel 4A.

In the advanced config program you can choose to make the d-pad either scroll a page or go between each link on the page. Changing this options makes the d-pad and scroll wheel on the side do the same thing.

Is there a way to make the scroll wheel scroll and entire page and the d-pad to go between each link?

Hi,

I Wanted to Install A Custom ROM Into My Oneplus 5 So I Flashed It Via TWRP Recovery And I Alslo Rooted My Phone To Do So, Then After A Few Days I Was Tired Of My Custom ROM And Wanted To Revert Back To The Orignal, So I Flashed My Orignal ROM To My Device And When I Tried To Relock The Bootloader Through Fastboot. Once Done, My device Refuses To Boot And Displays The Following Message: "Your Device Is Corrupt. It Can't Be Trusted And Will Not Boot".

Then I Got Very Scared And Unlocked The Bootloader Again + Wiped Everything (Including System) + Flashed TWRP Recovery + Flashed (Via TWRP Sideload) a Previous Version Of Oxygen OS And The Booted It Once Again Everything Went Fine And When I Tried Relocking The Bootloader The Device Once Again Started To Show The Same Message Again !!

I Have Lost Every Single Hope Of Recovering My Device Except You Guys.

Any Thought On How I Can Resolve?

Thanks!
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ScRuFFy7:
Why do you want to relock it? Life is better with Magisk and Blu_Spark in my opinion.

If you want your bootloader to be locked I find it easiest to use the MSM tool (hard brick recovery). It'll wipe your phone but restore it to a like new out of the box condition, just choose a firmware.

Cheers!?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] piratedpanda:
How about you try the MSM Tool to start again from scratch.

[OnePlus 5 Accessories] qrn:
Hello,

just wanted to give a quick rundown of my experience with a cheap aftermarket LCD (yes, you read right...) for the Oneplus 5 from Aliexpress.

I broke my screen in July, since I knew I'd get a Pixel 4a or a Oneplus Nord anyways I wasn't that worried about quality, I just needed something to hold me over till I get the new phone. I ordered an aftermarket display from Aliexpress for 23 EUR. The display arrived and it immediately looked... weird. It didn't have the round edges of the original screen and it seemed thicker. Doesn't matter, it's cheap and I'll just need it for a few weeks, tops, so what could go wrong?

Here are the issues I immediately noticed:

* Quality control is bad, the upper right nut in the frame for the screw on the mainboard is loose on the display and can't be fastened

* No adhesive for various parts that are glued to the original frame, so they sit loose

* No oleophobic coating on the screen

* Much thicker than the original display

* LCD not OLED, so colors are off and it's not as bright as the original display

But it gets worse. Once I had everything back together the display was not closing properly. There's a metal notch on the frame that bends the main PCB and prevents the SIM cart tray from inserting properly. That metal notch is neither present on original display, nor on sellers pictures.

PCB is bending on metal notch

Comparison original display to display from seller

Screenshot from seller without metal notch

Conclusion: the item is faulty. Since that I've dremeled the notch off and the phone closes now, but even for a screen as cheap as this, this is absolutely unacceptable, in my opinion. There are several sellers now that feature pictures of this display replacement with the notch visible, but I don't think repairing a manufacturing defect should be the responsibility of the customer.

Overall can not recommend. This might be okay for the cheapest of cheap repairs, but manufacturing defects aside, it also seriously lowers the quality of the device. I don't have a repair business, but this is the tenth screen I replaced over various iPhones, a Oneplus One, a Nexus 6 and now this Oneplus 5 and this is the lowest quality screen replacement I've ever seen. And I've put some really cheap LCDs into iPhones. It will hold you over for a few weeks like it did for me, but you can say goodbye to any resale value left.

On the plus side: it doesn't have the wobbly screen effect while scrolling...

tl;dr: don't buy, unless you are in a pinch.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] Pho3nX:
Aliexpress is a cancer... Don't buy anything on this site. Fraud TVA, you must something paid taxes, products are false/cheaps and you can wait your package during 1 or 2 months

Above all, any support, it cost more to asking a refund/return product.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] qrn:
Well, I can't say that, unfortunately. I just looked it up, over 68 orders since July 2013 I only had to open a case with Aliexpress three times, two of those because the item hasn't arrived before the buyer protection period ended and both items arrived a few days later (unfortunate for the seller, I already got my money back). In this case I submitted the pictures to this thread with a text similar to my original post (I slightly reworded it for this post and kept the original complaint shorter to avoid confusion) and got all my money back.

I think you can't fault Aliexpress for the long shipping times from China. Personally I don't have a problem waiting, but I can see how ordering from them is not for everyone.

If you're into repairing electronics Aliexpress is a godsend, because I know of no other source where you can even the tiniest parts in single digit quantities.

Any help appreciated

Cheers
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SweenWolf:
You don't need to install any module to be abke to access fat32 formatted device, hell you don't need to have root at all. Fat32 is recognized by the system as is.

You just need a working OTG cable and use MiXplorer (download it from XDA official page). You will see your thumb drive in the hamburger menu (first or second one).

I have non rooted firestick 4k and it works.

I have no experience with fos5 devices and i cannot say anything about that because most NORMAL commands don't work there
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AmznUser444 Dev:
NTFS and ExFAT file systems are developed by Microsoft.

Amazon is not paying to Microsoft for the license to use NTFS and ExFAT.

The maximum file size for NTFS and ExFAT are 16EB (exabytes) or 16 million GB (gigabytes).
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bertonumber1:
Hey my device is the way I want it now sween wolf, rooted with all apps installed, I can't be assed unrooting it now.

but anyway I flashed the magisk module with the general thought being if I was using a pre-rooted rom I would lose the ability to use the USB drive through OTG?

So I flashed Pretorians module but I can't get the USB drive to show up, it's a sabrent 32 gb formated to fat32

I'm using a similar app to xplore called filemanager plus but with no joy... The USB storage just isn't playing ball and showing up you know?

So I don't need the module at all? , should I perhaps try reformatting the USB?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SweenWolf:
I am not telling you to unroot, this is not something rooting a device kills, but yeah with or without root, usb works.

Try changing your explorer, use mix or es file explorer to see if the usb is getting recognized but isn't showing up

File System Functionality Comparison - Win32 apps

Tables that list functionality and feature support comparisons for the four main Windows file systems, NTFS, exFAT, UDF, and FAT32.

docs.microsoft.com

so fat32 max filesize is 4gb, you are right

and that is the reason users need for higher resolution movies bigger than 4gb ntfs or exfat mass or some NAS to circumvent the limitation for local mass storage filesize of fat32
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FrankthaTank:
It absolutely is. The maximum file size for FAT32 is 4GB. What you linked to is exFAT, which is NOT FAT32. exFAT also cannot be read by the firestick.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] khaytsus:
I'm moving towards using my bluetooth GPS for everything, as the internal GPS just takes too much battery and gets 'stuck on' too much. It's a little more hassle, but some of the things the bluetooth unit does better will outweigh the negatives of having to use the external device.

Locks onto sats in <5s on warm start, <30s in the worst situation, uses its own battery (12h runtime), doesn't drain the phone when on or when it's supposed to be off, etc.

Anyway! I've looked in the Camera prefs, registry in HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera etc, surely there is a way to change the COM port that's used but I'm not seeing it. Anyone know?
