[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] RAF_SHC:
Yes I'm in exactly the same boat as you. However ordered on the 9th. Used the voucher today for the green leather case and the phone suddenly started moving to preparing dispatch. :confused:

Does that mean we might even see them tomorrow? Even though the pushed back date was the 2nd of October. Crazy, but its all samsungs game to keep people talking. But let's see how it goes. I'll only believe it when I see a DPD email/notification come through.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jonstatt:
Just got a DPD notification for delivery tomorrow!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Pyung:
Delivery Tomorrow. Pre-order 6th Mystic Black, free Buds and 50£ voucher
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] RAF_SHC:
Same here. Now in a dilemma. Is it the phone and buds, which are early even when not taken into account the delay, or is it the phone case that I bought with the £50 voucher for delivery tomorrow. I'm hoping its both but samsung website only shows the phone as preparing for dispatch and the case as just order placed.

Let me hope its both! :laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] xdaman85:
After ordering on the 1st of September, I finally got a message from Samsung saying it will be delivered tomorrow, I won't hold my breath though.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jonstatt:
Despite getting the DPD email, its still dispatching on the Samsung site and DPD don't have it.

New orders are back to Oct 2nd. Could they have accidentally given stock away to new purchasers messing up the older orders further?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] nihal1983:
I got mine yesterday after ordering on 2nd.i was told I'll get it on 23rd so was lucky. Weirdly I got an email from Samsung saying they dispatched the order today but it then says delivered by dpd obviously. So something is messed up in their order system
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] RAF_SHC:
Let's wait till the morning. We should get a DPD text by 930am if it is going to arrive. No text if not.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jonstatt:
Yup. Did you end up with a second tracking number? Samsung never merged my previous orders
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] RAF_SHC:
Nope, only 1 order. The case which I booked for tomorrow hasn't changed from order placed. Something is seriously screwed at samsungs end. The fold 2 must have been really popular.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jonstatt:
The fold can't be as popular as the S20. It is all very strange. Anyway, let's see what we wake up to but expecting the DPD tracking won't be updated.

EDIT: I am wrong, its at my local depot!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jonstatt:
As you say, a very messed up Samsung UK !
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] nihal1983:
The fold is very popular on the contrary. It smashed pre orders in Korea where the s20 n note met with luke warm reception
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] RAF_SHC:
My phone/case/or even both will be here in the next 20 minutes. Lets see what we get.

---------- Post added at 10:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:24 AM ----------

Phone and buds received. However the case i actually ordered to be delivered today still hasn't arrived nor moved on the website. Looks like I'll have to complain again to samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] RAF_SHC:
Got my phone and buds. Even though website is still saying preparing dispatch for 22nd but i'll ignore that. Initial impressions are great especially coming from the original fold.

However, haven't received my case, which I ordered yesterday and booked in for delivery today. Just on hold to Samsung support to see what is happening.

Coming from the original fold, I like the fact that the fingerprint sensor and power button have been combined. Obviously bigger out screen makes it much more usable for quick text\browsing. Overall feels much refined product from the original. Love it.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jonstatt:
Got mine around 1pm. One thing I do like about Samsung direct is that they use a brown box to protect the goods. Everyone else just stuffs these expensive devices in a courier bag!

I am still so puzzled what happened. There was delays announced, some as long as Oct 2nd. Then 50 pounds voucher upset everyone so they threw in the buds. And then other than a few people who expected theirs before launch day and had chosen pre 10:30am, everyone got them on time or ahead of time. Absolutely bizarre.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] RealEvil:
Returning mine - good luck to those happy with theirs. Its amazing tech but just awkward to use IMO (the weight, both screens feel like the wrong size). Its been a fun ride but I didn't want to hang onto it for longer when I know its not for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Did everyone who got the free buds get mystic bronze? Not to sound ungrateful but would have been nice to get the mystic black like the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] RAF_SHC:
Yes mystic bronze for me to. And I agree, matching colours to the phone would have been better.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] apprentice:
Got my text from DPD, phone arriving tomorrow from EE.

The EE Community Forums were brimming with complaints about late dispatch and unavailable stock but at last it seems they are delivering starting tomorrow for most (though still possibly a delay for black colour)

I was tempted by the black version but wished it was matt, so went for bronze in the end.

Happy days!

.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Undesiredbox:
I ordered mine on 1st September but it's a custom one. I have to wait 3-5 weeks, tomorrow will be 3 weeks - has anyone who ordered a custom version around the same day got any updates?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] tifosi256:
Yep, my buds were mystic bronze, but then so was my phone so I assumed they were matching. I guess they had a surplus of that colour of everyone is getting it. Speaking of the buds, I find them really hard to wear. I've watched videos on how to fit them properly, so it's not that, but I can't seem to get them comfortable in my ear (unlike the old buds). I also find not having a flat touch panel like the old ones tricky.

Anyway, loving the phone so far, battery life is all over the place as you'd expect from a new phone, so hopefully that settles down a bit after a couple of weeks of charging/discharging.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] BlackCatFTM:
Ordered 15th September was given a 3rd October delivery date.

Just checked order tracking this morning and it has just change to "PREPARING DISPATCH"
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jhericurls:
Means you will get it tomorrow
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] BlackCatFTM:
Still stuck on this status the following morning unfortunately so just to warn others that the change to "PREPARING DISPATCH" is nothing to get excited about.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] AstroDigital:
I always used Nova Launcher, I liked how I can customize my devices.

With this phone I am going to see how far I can get with the Pixel Launcher.

What will I miss ?

Do you think I will give up and go back to the Nova Launcher ?
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] qwerty12601:
There are still some basics that will keep me work Nova indefinitely until the pixel launcher implements them.

1) Dock app count. I will never be ok with only 5 apps in the dock. I've been using 7 and I couldn't settle for less.

2) static search bar on the homepage. I don't need it, and I'd certainly want that space if I couldn't adjust how many apps I have in the dock.

Until those are modified, it will always be Nova for me.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] tcat007:
I couldn't live without Nova gestures, and folder swiping. Nova is running very well on 4a-11, so why wouldn't you use it? I tried Pixel launcher for about 2 hours, that's all I could take.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] DB126:
There is no comparison; not even close. Boils down to personal preference. If you don't need the extra functionality offered by Nova or other launchers then why bother. If you do then the choice is obvious.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] AstroDigital:
I been using the Pixel 4a for only a day, got it yesterday "updated to Android 11 last night".

I think I can live with the native interface, but I may give in and turn on Nova Launcher with this device; I like that I can skin and resize icons, hide apps in the App tray, and as was mentioned have more icons in the dock.

Thanks for the replies.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] mashuto:
I assume with nova though you lose the same recents and lose the nice animations you get with the pixel launcher. Is that still the case?
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] tcat007:
I believe recents are the same. Animations still there.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] mashuto:
I loaded up nova briefly and the animations (specifically app opening and closing) and definitely not the same as the pixel launcher. I tried changing them but didn't see any way to get them the same. Recents did seem the same though.

Well the animations themselves may be similar. But the big difference seems that ok the pixel launcher the animations originate from the icon and return to the icon when closing. That's the one specifically I mean.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] tcat007:
Yeah, I just looked at Pixel one, the closest Nova has is Pie one. Only issue I've had so far is Google Feed background sometimes turns white, and Nova needs a restart.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] adamskiadam:
I'm not really gettin used to touchflow yet and I'm checking out other options. So... Lets get down to business:

The things that bugs me in touchflow are:

1.the todayscreen not being able to show more calendarevents.

2. the sms screen, the whole layout really

3. The mediaplayer

4. The alarm, every aspect there as well

I know that there are substitute programs for most of these problems BUT as I have to go in and select the appropriate program I fail to see the advantage of Touchflow..

The things I love with Tf3d are its speed and beautiful graphics and they will be soarly missed if I would go with another shell.

Are there any other touchfriendly options?

What are the pros and cons with Spb mobile shell 2.0? Especially regarding these issues!

Yours sinceraly

Adis Hardis
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] aydc:
Sorry but I think you're a bit lazy. Why don't you just download a trial of spb mobile shell and see for yourself?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] MikeSel^:
To be fair, I think he wants opinions..

SPB Software always rates highly in my books, I used to use the Shell on my Hermes. My girlfriend used to hate it, as it restricts access to the main features of the phone unless you kill it off.

But I guess if you tweak it to how you want it, then you never need to access the back end of the phone, pretty much like the HTC one I guess.

SMS's are visible (at least the count) on the main screen, and link direct to the pocket outlook folder

Media player - There's non built in, so again it's just a link.

Urm, Alarm again is built in.. Unless you put SPB time on??

Guess its worth a try! There's plenty of support on their forums, and hundreds of themes for it :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] adamskiadam:
I'm no expert in these areas but can I install spb without uninstalling? (and loosing all the settings and so forth). Cause thats my main concern!

Lazy or not, thats what forums are there for in my opinion, to get input and help...

Adis Hardis

Ps

Thank you MikeSel :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] MikeSel^:
Yeah you can, there simply 'today' plugins so you can disable one, and enable the other.. Make an informed decision and then dump one if you like.. Or just keep both, and leave one disabled :)

Have fun, and give me a shout if you get stuck!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] adamskiadam:
Nice, I'm on it, thanks for your help Mike!

Peace

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Jarune:
i just recently installed SPB mobile on my diamond and i love it a lot more then TF3D. I thought TF3D was great at first, but it a shame it's not configurable even with TF3D advanced config etc installed. Only the very basic functionality is available. It does look very good though and maybe the future could hold great things for it. But for now and the near future SPB mobile is the winner for me

-it's better and more customizable

-it's got lot's of good plugins

-the latest version got guestures like touch flow

-runs smooth as silk

-great animation without slowdowns

-all of the functions are easy accessible
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] skrap3:
Tried spb 2.1 for a week, but changed back to tf3d.

For my use, tf3d its enough and mobile shell, is atm a bit slower than tf3d and i dont like the default look. And with a better looking vga skin its slower than the first versions of manila, so i stay with tf3d.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] DgeneX:
Just received my Poco X3 and tried to "Check For Updates" for the MIUI 12 Firmware.

1) When I click on "Check For Updates" nothing seems to happen

2) When I click on "What's new" to view the changelog, it says "You don't have permissions to access the update log. Make sure the account you signed in with has the required permissions".

Wondering if anyone else is experiencing this? I'd assume 12.0.1.0 (which the device is on) is the latest firmware, but i should be able to view the update log at least?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] svceon:
I have the same experience as you, i would guesse the logic behind it is that there is no change log since it's the first release for this phone
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] billouetaudrey:
I think it's only beta changelog
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] DeathByArmadillo:
Exactly that, it's a bug that has been seen on MIUI 12 a lot, no biggie, but it gets the users quite riled up as they assume they're missing on an update.

Thanks to confirm it :)

Hi all,

I'm working on a screenshot application for windows mobile 5 and 6. It works from a code point of view, but for some reason no matter how I time everything the windows loading spinner doesnt go away untill after It takes the shot.

I've tried adding a form that opens and closes (takeing the pic on the Form_closed event)

Non form app that opens takes the pic then closes.

Any thoughts?
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] maku88:
I have tried rebranding (I unlocked my bootloader with DC-Unlocker)

It always gives me an error on flashing the files. When I try to flash Magisk, it says that the rom is not a stock rom so it won't install. (Which I bet you is still a stock rom from huawei).

Currently, the state is:

Model number D188-L09

Build Number D188-L09C432B101

EMUI version 3.1

Android version 5.1

CPU HiSilicon Kirin 960 (from what I saw with WRT)

Bootloader = unlocked

FRP = unlocked

I already tried, Magisk, SuperSU, and KingRoot (etc oneclicks)

What would be my best option since I need to recover the files from this phone (my nephew played with it and I wasn't able to recover the password he put on the screen so I had to reset to factory settings)

Thanks!

Hi,

I'm wondering if it is just for me or the swipe from the middle of the screen to reveal the app switcher got removed from Android 11? Even the tutorial shows that it can be used.

Does any of you face this issue? I really miss it.
[Google Pixel 4 Questions & Answers] 2WildFirE:
Try swip up from the bottom and stop in the middle
[Google Pixel 4 Questions & Answers] Gabouka:
But it used to work without going to the bottom bar, at least for the home screen. It was much more convenient ?

I cannot install any SPB products. After I put my cd key in to finish the installer, I get a message stating activesync cannot be found on this computer. It is odd when I have the browser window open, looking at my tilts windows folder. Does anyone know how to fix this issue, or where I can find a cab for SPB's products?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] psionandy:
you can get cab files for spb products from the spb website....

get the trails from their website
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] MikeSel^:
On the downloads page of the SPB product you should be able to see an option to download the CAB file, so try that way.

Out of interest, do you sync your phone with your PC?
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Accessories] oic0:
So I ordered the fancy case thinking I would have it for the life of the phone... Don't like it at all. Here is why.

1. It doesn't make the phone any easier to hold or help prevent accidental screen touching at the edges. You would need a pop socket to hold the phone well... Which would cover the light.

2. It doesn't offer much protection at all and is smooth hard plastic that promotes dropping and sliding off surfaces.

3. The lit up part is under open recessed holes which will fill with gunk over time. You'll have to carefully clean them with a needle.

4. The lighting doesn't use the stock light port on the back, it's lit by a bright little LED next to the camera flash that eats up some battery.

I much prefer the cheap hybrid tpu / plastic case that was on my one plus 6T. It made the phone easier to hold and use as well as offering great protection.
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Accessories] rogeriskira:
Do you have the kunai? If so would the case get in the way of adding the kunai 3s?
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Accessories] oic0:
Don't own the kunai so not sure.

Will probably buy a different case though, if I keep this one I'll eventually end up breaking this phone :(
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Accessories] lornranger:
The cheaper tpu cases air trigger cutout only allow for single trigger and does not support dual or sliding usage for the trigger.

The lighting armor case cover fully the top and bottom of the phone, and also stick out quite a bit on the left and right side of the phone. It should offer some drop protection as it is quite hard to remove. Only thing is there is no front lip with screen protector applied. However it offer ample camera lens protection.

Until correct cutout are made for 3rd party cases, I cannot recommend any of them.
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Accessories] oic0:
I threw together a 3D printed outer case that fits over this case but doesn't cover any of the bottom lighting. Makes it a bit easier to hold and should offer more protection. Still a bit of a work in progress but if you have a printer and want to try it out, knock yourself out. I still need to do something to make the buttons easier to press and the air triggers are pretty much a no go. I also covered the dock port. I'm not much of a gamer, I just wanted a fast phone with a big screen and huge battery :)

https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4602468
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Accessories] biotoxin:
based on what I've seen so far probably

the official little lighting case doesn't work with the desktop dock which I could forgive, the aero cooler which kinda makes sense it would be pointless not to have direct contact, but I was shocked to find it didn't even work with the twinview dock, I plan to get the kunais when they come out but right now I'm calling it that they won't like cases of any kind.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Stan2112:
Hello,

We have about 55 Galaxy Tab As in the field and about half of those that have updated to Android 10 are having camera issues which are incredibly frustrating for the techs using them. None of the tablets still on Android 9 are having camera issues. I'm using Miradore as the MDM to control these devices. I've tried factory resets but that comes back up as Android 10 (I think these were shipped with 8.1). Is there a way to get an Android 9 ROM so I can follow the procedure Android Authority for downgrading 10 to 9 (can't post URLs as a new user)?

Is there some other fix for Android 10 camera issues I haven't found yet?
