Hey! I just published my new app: Newse - unofficial client for Wikipedia Current Events page. Newse will help you to find news listed on a daily basis with a link to background articles. The primary importance are international events. App contains brief summaries of the international news events. If you need more information about some topic, you can find links to Wikipedia articles, as well as external news articles. With Wikipedia as an source of information Newse is avoiding editorials and opinion pieces laden with point-of-view or sensationalism. Also each of Newse events has at least one working link to a reliable source. Hope it will be a useful for some of you guys or at least interesting. It's still under development so have mercy on me ;)

Newse is of course a FREE app, you can download it from Google Play: Newse: unbiased world news and current events

If you have any suggestions, ideas or wish to report me a bug, just fell free to write it here :)

Thanks for reading this and (maybe) installing my app :D

If phone is accessable via ADB ( means USB debugging got enabled ) then you may consider to pull out the data in question by means of ADB commands

For example

adb devices
adb pull /storage/emulated/0/DCIM %TEMP%\DCIM
adb pull /storage/emulated/0/Pictures %TEMP%\PICTURES
adb pull /storage/emulated/0/Video %TEMP%\VIDEO
adb pull /storage/emulated/0/Music %TEMP%\MUSIC

[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] lmerega:
Hi all, I usually use SIM 1 to make phone calls.

Sometimes I need to use the SIM number 2.

How can I choose which SIzm to use while dialing the number?

Is there any hidden option?

I would not like to enable “ask for each call” feature because I use SIM 1 99% of the times.

Thanks in advance
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] srk_srinivas:
You can choose the one of the two dial buttons, after typing the number based on the SIM card.

You can change the SIM settings in preferred SIM to always ask, which SIM to dial.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] lmerega:
I did not have the two buttons because, somehow,u secondary SIM was disabled.

I had to reboot the phone to reenable it.

Now it works.

Hey all - was a regular at Pinstack when I had a BBerry and one of my fellow stackers recommended this site for my new ATT TILT running WM 6...Here goes:

1. Is there any good app out there that will soft reset, power the phone off?

2. My screen light is always on - it dims but is on - how do I get the screen to turn off completly (dark) when not in use?

3. What is the difference between shutting the phone off (in settings), turning the screen off?

Thanks so much,:confused:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] The Reaper:
Hello and welcome to XDA.

Yes, and they can be found HERE. Lots of free applications out there like Auto reset, Reset scheduler etc...choose what suits your need.

Use the power button to turn your screen off.

Turning the phone off in Comm Manager puts your phone in Airplane mode, i.e you'll not be able to make of receive calls. Turning the screen off puts the phone into hibernation, you save battery and you can definitely make and receive calls.

The P40 Pro + was an amazing phone and I got GMS working on it fine (struggled without it at first for a couple of vital APPS!) I then moved to the dark side and currently have a Note 20 Ultra, but I miss the Huawei camera.

Questions for when the answers are available....

The Pro is announced for UK I believe, does anybody know if/when the Pro+ will be?

What do you guys think of a GMS option for the new Mate 40 range... do you think one will come fairly quickly?

Are you getting a Mate 40 in any spec?

I was contemplating checking out this phone, but I looked up the 5G NR bands and it doesn't include the bands used here in Canada. Telus, Bell, and Rogers all use N66 and Rogers also uses N71. Neither of those are included in the Mate 40 *.

OK, I've found a company I can buy it from but I'm finding scary stories about buying a chinese (rather than UK) phone -

Hello I bought it on tradingshenzen day 2 November as available in stock 10 pieces Huawei Mate 40 Pro + Plus NOP-AN00 White color but the seller after three days from the order, told me that they had made a mistake on availability and between else you have to wait 1 or 2 weeks. But if anyone knows a place where it is available immediately, I'd like to have a link so I get a refund and buy it because it pisses me off that they tell you available and then you have to wait days and days. Huawei Mate 40 Pro + Plus and they are receiving the parcels and I don't understand why there is no availability at the moment for other sites Mah ....

Hello I have been buying Huawei Mate series for many years and only and exclusively with Chinese firmware but obviously multilingual and I can tell you the updates arrive without problems before the global version ones.
[Huawei Mate 40 Pro Questions & Answers] kj1206:
your best options are aliexpress xda wont let me post external inks so just remove the spaces from links below

aliexpress . com/w/wholesale-huawei-mate-40-pro.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.234c7a72rC5H7n&CatId=5090301

keep in mind prices will be higher than in local Chinese market but alot cheaper than trading shenzen giztop and other reseller sites

if you cheaper price buy it here jd.com or tmall.com

search . jd. com/Search?keyword=mate%2040%20pro&enc=utf-8

most of the cheaper listing are sold out right now but you can find some higher prices ones keep in mind on these sites you will need a shipping agent incase you do not have one just make an account ytaopal .com/ and paste the link you want to buy in your dashboard they will buy it and ship it to you I have used them before not for mobile phone but for other things do ask them about mobile phone shipping before placing the order sometimes battery goods cannot be sent from certain shipping companies if you do not want to do all this just buy it on aliexpress instead.

I would say go for mate 40 pro plus model as this time difference isnt just a 10x camera but alot more

1 . Extra 10x camera

2. SFS 1.0 ( 2 fold faster than ufs 3.1)* see the explanation below

3. 12 gb ram standard on both 256 gb and 512 gb

4. OIS built in 50MP camera not that mate 40 pro has the same camera but without OIS

5.Ceramic back

6. 3D Depth Sensing Camera instead of laser sensor which you get on mate 40 pro

all in all mate 40 pro plus is a different phone than mate 40 pro

price difference isnt much on JD.com mate 40 pro 256gb is 6999 yaun ( 1060$) and mate 40 pro plus 256gb is 8999 yaun ( 1360$) so for 300$ more you get so much more that matters alot.

Based on the results of measuring the homegrown Huawei SFS 1.0 flash module, it was possible to establish that it provides almost a twofold increase in the speed of operation in comparison with the UFS 3.1 flash memory.

According to reports, the sequential write speed was 1280 MB/s, and random 548 MB/s.

In comparison, these figures for UFS 3.1 are 700 MB/s, and 200-300 MB/s, respectively, GizChina reported.

Friend I tried to register on the site you just told me to make purchases and I put the link with the article taken on the jd.com site and it works but you can not recharge with paypal and I do not like this because when I pay large amounts I use only paypal and second thing by doing the accounts on tradingshenzen I managed to buy it even if I'm still waiting for it to arrive at 1369 euros (1,625.60 USD) including Dhl express transport + paypal commissions regarding the tax and therefore all included so I would say the price agrees for the amount that I managed to win Huawei Mate 40 Pro + Plus NOP-AN00. But checking in all the Chinese sites jd etc. etc. the fact remains that Huawei Mate 40 Pro + Plus (NOP-AN00) are not available especially the white color so this lack of availability is not new to what I am understanding but really right now there is no availability and maybe next week they will send me.

Friend thank you but I have already purchased Huawei Mate 40 Pro + Plus (NOP-AN00) on November 2nd and am just waiting for them to ship it to me as soon as it is available. On aliexpress in addition to the fact that it costs a lot compared to what I managed to get it, they tell you all those units are available but it is not true because they give you 15/22 days shipping time with Dhl Express so it means that they are not available because the express courier it will never take all those days but they say it on purpose because they take time until it is available to them to be able to ship it. Believe me I have looked for this model in all places but there is no availability in any place really.

Huawei Mate 40 Pro + Plus NOP-AN00 availability and waiting after the order is placed

I do not understand why with this model Huawei Mate 40 Pro + Plus NOP-AN00 there are all these availability problems also because they have just answered me and told me that they must inform about the availability and another site agent always where I have purchased tells me that Huawei's current situation on the delivery of this model is still critical. I'm not understanding anything anymore.
[Huawei Mate 40 Pro Questions & Answers] zaga1988:
In the end I requested a refund from the tradingshenzen dealer and I also ordered on the giztop website (Huawei Mate 40 Pro + Plus NOP-AN00 white color) which among other things by placing the order gave me a small discount of 2% and I see that the product is available. If I had known this before I would have bought from giztop from the beginning to avoid wasting time. Finally I add that I hope this time is the right one and that the seller does not say nonsense as unfortunately many sites say about this product regarding availability.
[Huawei Mate 40 Pro Questions & Answers] lawtq:
Says available but its not. They told me shipping from 15th as not it stock

Huawei Mate 40 Pro Plus available

I got a refund from the tradingshenzhen shop and bought the Huawei Mate 40 Pro Plus white color from giztop. We hope that this time it is really available because I was annoyed to wait a long time after having spent a lot of money and I think not only me. On vmall china users since early November or maybe even a little earlier have received this model and I don't understand why all these Chinese online stores don't have stock in stock yet. Now I'm waiting for an answer on the real availability from giztop and let's hope it's the right time.
[Huawei Mate 40 Pro Questions & Answers] sootyvrs:
Has anyone in China received the plus model yet? I have not seen any reviews on the net for this model yet so perhaps all the supply chain issues are affecting the availability on this model and they have concentrated on getting on the non plus model out for now.

Looking forward to hearing about the wider ultra wide angle lens performance before considering this as an option.

Good luck for those who have pre-ordered

Hello to you has the Mate 40 Pro + Plus arrived? How long have you been waiting? What did they tell you ? However, they replied to me on the Giztop site that they will send me the package on Monday 16th November with some certainty and I hope it is true. However, Huawei in China has all the models available and in my opinion first it expects to please its customers in its personal internal sales store and then it will distribute the most requested models (As in the case of the Mate 40 Pro + Plus) to mass stores in order to sell the product because there are no other explanations in my opinion.
