[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidriven:
Yes, but, only if the rooting method requires unlocking your bootloader because unlocking the bootloader formats the data partition. But, if you can find a way of rooting without having to unlock the bootloader or flashing a custom recovery, it won't format your data partition.

Honestly though, your chances of rooting without unlocking bootloader or flashing custom recovery , aren't very good. To do so would require finding an app or PC program that is a "universal rooting tool" and it would require the tool having an exploit that works on your device.

Or, you could do a Google search for:

"Recover data android no root"

Then try the various tools and methods that finds, if you can find videos in that search, it may help you further.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] ichigo91:
Hi, I have Galaxy S20 5G G981U from Sprint unlock, and using this phone in my country (SEA country) without any problem, eg OTA update via data/wifi, sms & call, but recently I changed CSC from SPR to XAA in order to get faster OTA update & my model number also changed to SM-G981U1, after changed CSC to XAA (US Unlocked) I still get notifications for OTA update but I can't update it using data, it's required me to update using WiFi only, before this on SPR I don't have any issue to update using data. Did anyone also have any problem like me or it's just me only who can't OTA update S20 US unlocked using data only ?
[Moto G Power Questions & Answers] SethiusMaximus:
So, I've run into an issue sourcing a screen replacement that will fit a 2020 Moto G Power (XT2041DL) that I'm fixing for a family friend, and was hoping that someone here might know something that I haven't been able to dig up elsewhere online.

There's loads of listings online claiming that they have screens that are cross compatible between the Moto G Power and the Moto G8 Power because these two phones share an identical model number - which is strange, I've never seen two differently named phones from the same company share model numbers before..

What I've found is that the models XT2041-4 / XT2041-6 / XT2041-7 / XT2041DL are the Moto G Power

And the Moto G8 Power has models XT2041-1 / XT2041-3 / XT2041-4

Notice the XT2041-4; two different phones, with essentially the same name, with overlapping model numbers, but using different parts.

wat.jpg

I know they use different parts because I ordered the Moto G8 Power screen thinking that it'd fit my Moto G Power, and while the screen connects to the board and powers on, it's exactly 2mm too short while sitting inside the frame; It's not compatible!

Imgur pic: https://i.imgur.com/kR3Yasw.jpg

As one could imagine most phone parts sellers could misinterpret the model number overlap and make listings for screens that - like in my case - don't fit.

So my question is: does anyone know where I can find a screen replacement for the Moto G Power that is *only* compatible with models XT2041-6 / XT2041-7 / XT2041DL ??

I've found a few Amazon and eBay listings with negative reviews for screens because they don't fit too, so it's sort of a thing..

Any leads would be appreciated!

Edit:

For anyone else who comes across this issue: I've found an online retailer that sells OEM screens that will 100% fit the XT2041DL Moto G Power:

https://www.mobiledefenders.com/ole...-xt2041-6-xt2041dl-authorized-oem-vulcan.html

I'm not sure what's up with their supply line -- it took over a month for it to be available after the estimated date changed 3 times, and there was only a 2 hour period where I was able to actually order it, so I'd recommend setting up the "notify me when available" and ordering right away if you're ever in this situation.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Maaxo:
I've bought a used S9+ like 3 days ago and run a QA test inside the phone. The screen was fine and it responds normally, however after 2 days I couldn't use a keyboard because of its issues while typing. Basically, when I'm typing a longer sentence, I have to either slow down or sometimes press a button 3-5 times for it to respond. It stared to occur yesterday and I don't know if that's the touch control issue or something with the display. P.S. I've tested it on Gboard, Samsung keyboard and Grammarly keyboard, all with the same issue.

Is there any fix I can do without paying for a new display? It will cost me the same amount of money as the phone itself.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] ShaDisNX255:
Are you using a screen protector? If not, try it. Maybe touch sensitivity is turned on in display settings, try changing it to see if it's better. I've noticed that on some screen protectors, they retain a lot of humidity so I have to constantly clean the screen to get rid of "ghost touches"
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Maaxo:
No, I don't use any screen protectors. My phone has a Spigen case, which is slightly over the screen both at top and the bottom. I tried to turn on and off touch sensitivity and it didn't help. Funny part is that it sometimes stops and goes again.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Galaxyfantasy:
Had this myself, especially with the space bar ?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Galaxyfantasy:
Same here, have to press space up to three times (intermittent issue). Screen protector on, sensitivity does nothing.

it is so frustrating that they release phones so often with no chance to really refines them. then there is google that puts out versions of android before developers get a chance to master or migrate fully to the latter.

i heard the new storage security in android 11 can cause hiccups like slow loading and crashes due to the new storage activity due to the new security rules.

should i stay on android 10 just like so many stayed on android 4.x.x for so long to keep compatibility

I did and as I said I've never had any issues with an update in 11 years. I'm sure Sammy will have it figured out before they release it. All my phones have been rooted until the Note 7, and you take more chance flashing a rom written by some dev than an update from a major player.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] gloege:
But samsung does not work or develop the third party apps or what not that you install on your phone. Any unsupported app you use will likely be crippled(heard that loading times can be 100× longer to start the app) and any dev too aggravated to to fix it may stop supporting his or her project. Also most devs have not even cought up to android 10. Yea i hope to many update and google learns their error in this mess
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] ggrant3876:
If it does happen and I seriously doubt it, I'll just reflash with odin and restore my backup. My glass is half full, not half empty. I have friends on other forums running 11 beta on Pixels with no issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] mrnovanova:
Am I in a pixel or oneplus thread? Note 20 ultra users most likely get Android 11 before March 2021 and chances are that any kinks should be ironed out by then. I don't understand why this conversation needs to happen this early.

Edit: https://www.phonearena.com/news/sam...-android-11-update-one-ui-3-t-mobile_id127042

Guess I stand corrected! One Ui 3.0 AKA Android 11 is already in Beta in South Korea and coming to T-mobile according to this article.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
I will absolutely update as soon as its available. I always sign up for the beta each year to get the update ASAP. Most people complain that Samsung doesn't update fast enough. Haven't heard anyone complain yet that they update TOO fast, LOL.

These concerns happen every year, and they always end up being a non-issue.

As far as app compatibility issues, that's the developers' issues. They are advised long in advance what they need to do to remain compatible with the current OS.

Yup! Sammy has stepped up their update game the last few years. I think last year they were pushing the official Android 10 before the end of the year to some devices. I think, but I could be wrong. I know it was earlier than the previous years.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] gloege:
Guess you just lucked out. But i try not to be the one stuck with a dodgy os. When they updated to android 5 no phone would run my fave application and then the android 5 memory leak. Not to mention other things os updates can bring untill they fix them. And that is googles fault not the phone maker
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
LOL. I don't think I lucked out. I think issues with OS updates are far less common than you think. I'd say you are definitely in the minority.

I've been on Android since the original Moto Droid. I've had almost every Moto, LG, Samsung, Nexus, and Pixel. I've been through beta OS updates, official updates, side loaded updates, unofficial ported updates, you name it.

You're going back 5 YEARS and saying because an update broke your favorite application, that Google/Samsung updates too often? Is every update perfect? No, but they certainly don't break everything the way you think they do.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] apprentice:
~

Android updates on Samsung phones are always an anti-climax. Samsung tend to have implemented all the best features that a new Android update brings already. What you end up with is a range of bugs or security features that break your apps. I will always go for the update that's offered but I am not excited about it or bothered if there's a delay in any roll outs.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] mrnovanova:
No you are absolutely right. I'm out in Canada and if memory serves me right we got Android 10 at the beginning of January a month or so after the US. It was the years prior that the OS update came out with the S series release. And to your point Samsung has stepped up their game, tremendously. It's right after the Pixels and Oneplus which is not too shabby. And getting faster to boot. No complaints here. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] PsiPhiDan:
Yeah, Note10+ got Android 10 in December I believe. Definitely was super fast compared to Note9 getting Android 9 (February/March).

So true. I read one of the big changes with Android was bubble-like messaging, much like FB Messenger. Uh... I've had that in Samsung for a couple years now I think? My text app always pops up in a bubble instead of the notifications panel.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
Thats what I was thinking, but couldn't remember 100%. Unless there's somd major issues, it looks like we're on the same timeline for Android 11, since the beta is already out for the international S20 series. US Note 20 won't be too far behind.

My 10+ is still running well on Pie.

Probably stay on Pie for the life of this phone and hope Google regains their sphincter control with 12 or 13...

I saw that too, wtf? Messenger does that all the time with Pie.

Lol, half of the time I disable it because it's a nuisance.

I've backed up all my Playstore apps with APK Export because of them either being taken down in Playstore or turned into a bloody mess to adapt to 10/11.

I also have a couple trusted apps the use overlays, Q would render them useless or a pain to use.

I remember the horror of Vista and Lollipop... Pie is running very well, WYSIWYG

The most I'll do for now is an occasional reload of Pie if needed. All my data including the all apks/system updates are stored on my SD card so reloads are much easier. No screwing around with or waiting for Playstore. Any app that allows it's setup to be exported is also saved there.

With over 230 GB of data it saves a lot of time coping it from the laptop too.

I never have a phone without an SD card slot... you know like an Apple.

2 - Android 11 auto detect every apn, but the one for my operator is wrong, since MNVO need to stay on IMSI and the value at 22220x, but the system forced another one, which is resetted every reboot.

3 - Even if i updated both Google Play Services and Android Web View, i was unable to download more than one app in 180 minutes.

4 - When downloading, the phone become unusable due to the heat in the upper left part (back).
