So with Tvision ending and Youtube TV not working on this device, there is an alternative, but that is if we can get this to actually work correct. Here at Xda developers Project Slimbox is for Amlogic devices and I believe they have a device working with the S905Y2 processor. it would be nice to see if we could actually get that working on this device. Tmobile told me that they will be giving account credit for each person that purchased one of these devices.

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] JanKaas:
Hi,

I couldnt update my Mi A2, so googled a bit and found that i should Clear Cach of Google Services Frames. So i did, and after a reboot still unable / or the same message no updates were found.

"Cannot check on updates / Update aint available atm. Try again later"

So i did a factory reset. And now it started updating, till the security patch 5th may 2019. And now im stuck again, with the same message again.

Is there anyone with an idea on what to do now? Ive read that mi a2 had a update to android 10, its just weird mine is stuck at updates from 2019.

Or could anyone please advise me what guide to follow on how to install a custom / or official rom for the mi A2.

Best regards,

Hello everyone, I bought this phone with Verizon in its original software version, previously it was binary 2 ...

I looked for how to modify it and get the most out of it, but I only found it for the SM-A515F version, I didn't think it would work with my phone, because I couldn't unlock the bootloader ...

so i decided to wait for some modification like: "ROOT, TWRP or Rom"

But time passed and an update arrived that I ignored but 10 days passed and my phone was locked and I was forced to update without any other option.

To my surprise it turned out that my phone was upgraded to binary 3 and I was a little freaked out because I know it can't be downgraded to older binaries,

so i was hoping they would create xda threads soon but nothing, and my surprise was another update came and when it downloaded my phone crashed and the screen specified: "for your safety please update".

and then proceeded to forcibly update ...

And to my surprise, it is now binary 4:

"A515USQU4BTJ1"

November 8 update ...

And now I don't know what future this device will hold for me, I just have to wait ...

I just wanted to share my situation and wait for some brainstorming or answers to this ...

I bought an unlocked A51 on Amazon ($279) and brought it to Verizon to Activate on their Prepaid service. They told me it couldn't be done. I went to a Verizon Company store (most are mom and pop owned) and was told the same thing. I asked if they would humor me by putting in a working Sim card to show me it doesn't work. To their utter surprise it worked. No issues at all. They immediately added it to my Verizon Account.
[Samsung Galaxy A51 Questions & Answers] Yillié:
There is stuff for F variant but I don't know about U variant. This unlocked bootloader is something that should be now forced. Like I even know 7 year old devices that still dont have an unlocked bootloader.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] wladston:
Hey guys,

I have upgraded my PDA to WM6.1 (many thanks for the devs out there), and there was one thing that really bugged me :

They changed the filtering mode for the "active tasks" function on the default "taks" application. Now, active tasks will show ALL tasks that are not marked as done, even showing my tasks that will only start by next year.

This is really a problem, since it clutters the task view, and you never know with a glance what can you do now and what can't you do now. To make things worse, tasks without a start/due date are sown on the BOTTOM of the list, forcing one to pass trough all the dozens of future tasks to look at them.

I'm not the only one complaining about this, it's raining complains on the microsoft users forums. m$, as always, seen to be uninterested to release a fix. Some business are even reporting to be downgrading to WM5 because of this specific issue.

Now I make my request - can any of you guys make a WM5 Tasks application ? Just a simple one replacing the WM6 tasks application with the WM5 one. Or maybe create some registry hack to remove this bug on WM6 ?

p.s.: I know there are applications like agenda one and pocket informant that will give me this functionality, however, I would like not to spend more money on software licenses, and I also want to use something that is simple and fast (pi and agenda one are too full of features for me ;)

Thanks a lot for your time and attention,

Adb needs Authorization. You have to guess and click "Allow" if touch is working.

[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] ChinDaChin:
Hello,

My mom purchased a Samsung S20 FE unlocked from the Samsung website, and we're having some trouble getting the audio going through the USB C adapter. The adapter that was purchased was this - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07VF6NSZZ This is the only one I could find on Samsung's website, and compared the part number to confirm it's the same item (EE-UC10JUWEGUS). However, plugging this device in only sometimes gets us the sound. The first one we purchased, there would be a big hissing sound when it worked, but most times it wouldn't work. The second one we purchased, there was a clicking sound and it would skip every other second in music.

I came across this reddit thread (https://www.reddit.com/r/Galaxy_S20/comments/ih0e7n/usbc_to_35mm_adapter_question_how_to_enable/) and confirmed that the option OP disabled, was not enabled on my moms phone. However, we still continued having the above problems.

Things we've tried -

testing both adapters with my note 8 and note 9 devices

using different three different headphones

I came across this other highly positively reviewed adapter, and I'm debating purchasing it - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07F2DTTGT/

Has anyone had this issue? Anything else I can try?

This whole conversion got me like this.....
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] awr128:
I was able to walk a user through the conversion and this is what I learned.

1. Make sure your downloading the correct payload dumper. Payloaf_dumper_win64 Is what you need if your converting using windows.

2. You have to use the fastboot.exe and adb files from Google's SDK Platform Tools, minimal adb and fastboot will NOT work.

3. ADB files and Fastboot need to be put in a folder on the C Drive

C:\android

Fastboot.exe also needs to be in the payload_output folder

So you can run fastboot from inside that folder.

Access the command prompt by holding down the left s h I f t key while right clicking on any open spot in that folder, the choosing "open powershell window here"

Did it have you download the full 2 Gig OTA or just the 100MB incremental update?
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] SmileBigNow:
But can't one use global incremental update via local update to get to global ROM?
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] craznazn:
No, you need the global full update. Once you have the global full OTA, you can flash it via local upgrade from EU to get to Global.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] SmileBigNow:
I was referring from EU to Global via incremental?

I read somewhere that it's possible, not sure if that's accurate or not
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] badpanda:
And does that EU and Global version do they have the same bands n2, n24, n41, n66 that the T-Mobile varient has? to take full advantage of their 5G on the T-Mobile network?
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] craznazn:
Bands are flashed to your nvram and not modified by the rom. You will have the KB2007 bands even if you run the India rom. You can't easily change the bands and I'm pretty sure it's illegal to do so in the US. Same thing if you bought a KB2000 and want US bands, not easy to do.
