[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] rideti.me:
My fingerprint reader keeps disabling. I have to turn phone off and back on (reboot is not enough). However then all the apos detect a Biometrics change and I have to reenable fingerprint login for each app.

Even when it works the reader is super sensitive and keeps telling me I've had too many attempts before i pick up the phone.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] minhajmsd:
While I do get the too many attempts thing I haven't had the fingerprint reader disable on my phone
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] zwirek75:
For me its working just perfectly.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] frostitomik:
It works perfectly for me as well. I have found that using a case helps a lot with false reading attempts.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] arturiu:
I also use a slim case and I'm having a very positive experience with the fingerprint reader.

Coming from a Pixel 2 XL with a reader at the back, it took me a few days to get used to thumb based unlock.

But now, I find it much more reliable than the Pixel 2 XL reader, where fingers moisture was a real pain.

Same hands (different finger ;) being used on the 5ii and it works almost 100% of the time (and quick too).

Stock ROM and launcher.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] thepersona:
What case are you using?

also my fingerprint sensor is absolutely flawless I haven't had any issues or anything that has caused me to be concerned or despised the fingerprint sensor. maybe I'm lucky or maybe I just knew how to set the fingerprint up properly I don't know but my experience with it has been positive

Damn it doesn't appear that that case is available in Canada or even the US. Oh well hopefully more cases turn up when the device releases in the US
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] Undead_Son:
Try adding the same finger a few times. I haven't had any problems since I did that.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] olafd72:
Do you also have this issue, that while calling, you accidentally click on the fingerprint sensor and so activate the screen while it is 'at your ear' and so you 'click' on several options and so on? It happens a lot, I have accidentally adjusted with my ear the brightness or paused the call etc. Very annoying!
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] wicoz:
I struggled a bit at first to have my fingerprint recognized when trying to unlock, often ending up typing my pin instead.

I noticed a huge improvement by sliding my thumb upwards on the sensor, instead of just pressing it still. Now works almost all the times.

November update might have improved the situation as well.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] wazzaworld:
Not sure if it's something to do with a recent update but my reader is not recognising my fingerprints very well at all now. Anyone seen problems?

The other potential issue is that I've been doing a lot of DIY lately and probably worn away some of the detail on my finger ends :ROFLMAO:.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] PPGX5II:
Mine still on 58.0.A.22.21 as it's US variant but recently I am also facing issues with fingerprint scanner if the phone is in (deep?) sleep mode. Earlier it used to be just touch and go but now had to press it or try multiple time to unlock it.

Not sure what's the issue here?
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] homerlovesbeer:
No problems with my FPR. Occasionally it requires a couple of tries but that's true of every single phone on the market.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] Yakkosmurf:
Mine seems to be working well. I am coming from a P30 Pro with the underscreen sensor, and I had a few Xperias before that. This is by far the fastest Android fingerprint sensor I've used. it seems to instantly recognize everything. It's probably on par with my pre-face ID iPhones, but i don't have one of those anymore to compare it.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] hovikg:
I ended up disabling the fingerprint reader completely. Never works from first try when I need it, but somehow easily unlocks when I actually don't need it, as in when just holding it, putting down or in pocket. Also all those buttons on the same side is a really poor design choice, specially power right under volume. Btw, is there a way to disable the assistant button?
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] Yakkosmurf:
Everything I have read, says there's no way to disable it. I'm very surprised I have yet to activate accidentally. But, that might be because the button covers on my case are kind of stiff.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] cvkef:
I get the exact same behavior. Very frustrating. Totally disappointed with the fingerprint scanner.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] pec0ra:
You can disable the assistant app. But if course this is only a solution if you don't use the Google assistant at all.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] Deleted member 11223717:
My favorite fingerprint reader was the Pixel 3 with the reader on the back of the phone. My least favorite has been the under-screen readers on my Huaweis. The reason is less accuracy and fingerprints.

I've had my Xperia 5 ii for a day, and have been on it a lot, and the fingerprint reader has been excellent. My problem is finding it and not dropping the phone while I look.
[Realme 6 Pro Questions & Answers] Adriancris7:
Hello, I want to know how I can force the 90 hz refresh rate in all apps and games since in certain apps and games the 90 hz does not remain constant. For example, I wanted to play pubg mobile and it was played at 60 Hz, even with 90 Hz active, something similar happens on YouTube. and many other apps. Anyone know how you can force 90 hz whether with a root method or not ...
[Realme 6 Pro Questions & Answers] CpaoV:
it depends on the app, if an app was not designed to run at 90hz, it will not use the 90Hz screen...

Also depends in compatibility, some apps were designed to run 90hz on high end phones with powerful processors (which is the case for PUBG) but will not do so on mid tier SoCs
[Realme 6 Pro Questions & Answers] Adriancris7:
Maybe, but i tell you something. I had a mi 9 and I overclock the screen to 84 hz, all the interface was smooth. I think is not an apps issue. i think is a system cap... Because I can a 90 fps or 84 fps in pubg mobile with a hex editor trick. And here because of that I cant do it..
[Sony Xperia 10 II Questions & Answers] JayVerhofstadt:
So today, I decided it was time to give the Pixel Experience ROM a try, because well.. it is one of the very few available for this phone for now (although some nice development arms to be going on for this phone).

Thing is, I couldn't succeed in any way at all. There is the Device page with its own instructions in the change logs:

https://download.pixelexperience.org/xqau52

But then, there is also the generic installation guide here:

https://wiki.pixelexperience.org/devices/xqau52/install/

(I'm not going to quote this page because the install instructions is all there is on that page.)

Now the two instructions are quite contradictionary, and I couldn't figure out which one to follow, so I ended up following the part from the changelog that said to flash the Open Devices binaries to both slots (couldn't find the stock ROM but used Emma to clean flash it first), then flashed TWRP unofficial from the XDA device forums (tried both, stock and the other one) and was able to boot into TWRP. Since the device page kind of stopped there, I subsequently flashed the ROM as described on the installation page and got the device corrupt error upon booting the ROM, and the device stopped there. Couldn't get it to work.

Does anyone have any experience with tue installation of this ROM for this phone? I did prefer LOS but am quite eager to give this ROM a try, I just can't stand being unable to use navigation gestures in a normal way with a custom launcher (bad Sony!).
[Sony Xperia 10 II Questions & Answers] KingProNoob2:
I have something similar but worse. The phone stopped working. It shows red light and it blinks by 30s interval. Can anyone help?
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] Jhon_Locke:
In the searching for an EMUI5 firmware I have stumbled upon an EMUI8 one that my phone can have installed, I got this from the Firmware Finder:

Firmware approved for install
Build: PRA-LX3 8.0.0.360(C605)

Also there are other that says FULLOTA-MF-PV, FULLOTA-MF or just FULLOTA, which one should I use?

Now, in Multi-Tool I have an option to "Unbrick" the phone by flashing several images, can I use that to also flash a new firmware, in this case EMUI8? Though I haven't found a boot.img file when I extracted the update.app file. Even if I shouldn't use Multi-Tool can I extract the update file with Huawei Extractor and then flash everything with fastboot commands?

I can't access erecovery because in the past I have flashed something there (that's why I was looking for a EMUI5 firmware, so I could restore the stock recovery), I can only access fastboot&rescue mode, when I tried updating the OS from the phone itself (I had an update that said it includes May 2018 security patches) it rebooted to an error message. I have everything unlocked in this phone.

If you dont want people to question you then dont post on an open forum asking how to unlock a locked phone. Youre not much of a shop if you ask on forums how to do things.

Do you actually charge money to these people for your help when all you do is ask on forums how to fix things?

[Moto G6 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] d_g_m_2000:
hi, you need to boot up in twrp then install it using the twrp zip installer from twrp official page. i'm not a dev but there is something like boot partition inside the system partition that change recovery everytime you flash a custom rom

so:

fastboot boot twrp.img

inside twrp you should format data

flash disable dm-verity focerencrypt

flash hab disable

flash twrp installer zip

remember everytime you flash a custome rom twrp will be replace for the custom rom's recovery.

hope you can make it.

[LG Wing Questions & Answers] kaluna00:
That's great news.. Until then I found a crowbar way of doing it. It's not elegant but it works.

Ignore text see

2 posts below for solution

.

1. Download and install "clone app" from the Play Store.

2. Backup the APK file for the application you want to use on both screens. ( I used assistant for Android)

3.open clone app and "add app" .

4. Add shortcut to clone app on your second screen.

5. Open primary app on the main screen. Open clone app on the second screen. Select Your cloned app. Now you're running two instances of the same app.​

It's a bit messy and the Clone app is full of ads. I wanted to get something like this (see link below ) working. But I did not have a test user. I have one more idea to try tonight after work.

I'm using Nova Launcher. It may not be available on stock launcher. Nova Launcher also allows normal use of the main screen when you have the phone winged open
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] kaluna00:
All right. Here's the elegant solution.

1.You have to download WhatsApp first and install it as a dual app on settings.

2.Then fire up ADB Type:

adb shell pm list users

3. Check your 'test user' number is

4. adb install --user 'test number' test.apk

Test.apk is the name of the APK file you wish to install in the ADB folder.

5. Wait a few minutes for success message.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paulmihai2001:
So i had a custom rom on my LG G3 and the second day after flashing that from my phone was hit with the scree fade and flickering problems ( did not know that at the time). So my dad and I assumed it was because of the rom. My dad tried some stuff but since it was not software related it did not work so we abandoned it in a box and I bought the G6 . A couple of weeks ago it came time for my G6 to go in the box, when I did that I pulled out the old G3 and opened it up to play with it, but after a quick google search and some tin foil i managed to fix the screen at least for now.

The problem I have is when I boot the phone it loads all the way to like the lg welcome page for the first setup ( I guess my dad got the stock os back when we were trying to figure what was wrong with it ) and I get the "Unfortunately, LDB has stopped working," if i press ok it just instantly pops up again, and after a couple of seconds LG logo pops up and a quick boot animation and it goes back to that page and error message.

Any ideas ?
