[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] R3PUBL1K:
Agreed with that.

There is nothing in the world that you can do to persuade orange otherwise (IMO) I have been with Orange for 14 Years and they still would not change my 2g for a 3g until november. Retail have even stopped doing an instore SIM swap.

The plus side of this is at least I get longer battery life :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Qoroite:
Don't worry; Orange has this tendancy to bill people for their downloads, oddly enough like most mobile co's.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] simcarloc:
With Orange it really does depend on who you speak with - sometimes I hang up and call back because I realise the person i'm dealing with is an imbecile. Never lose your cool unless it's totally necessary, always think about your approach before you call and have a goal in mind. Persist and you'll be fine.

Btw, to most of the smug people on here - my Orange deal cains yours so pipe down:

£30 p/m

800mins

unlimited texts

unlimited data (500mb fair use)

free Diamond

:-)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] peterc10:
Nope fraid not.

£24.30 p/m after cashback

unlimited landline calls (fair usage 3,000 mins)

700 mins to any mobile

100 texts (don't use them much)

unlimited data (500mb fair usage)

and free Diamond too

But I am sure somebody will beat that! ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] simcarloc:
I text and talk quite a bit (predominantly to people on mobiles) so the extra minutes and texts make my plan an all round arse kicker for me. But that plan does look good. What do you mean by cash-back btw?

Plus, it's true as I said, my plan is better than those listed on the preceeding pages ;-)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] peterc10:
I rarely text so mine was best for me, and most of my calls are to land lines. At the moment I have never got anywhere near any of my limits

I am new to Orange and got a deal with a free Diamond on Racoon 35 through dialaphone, which are part of phones 4u. The rental costs £35 per month but I get 11 months at half price, through a cashback scheme from dialaphone - I get it in 5 payments over the 18 months of the contract. So that equates to £24.30 p/m

They were doing the same deal on one of the other Orange £35 plans, but with unlimted texts rather than landline calls.

This was all back in July - don't think you can get the same now because Orange appear to have stopped the unlimited landline and data offers they had for all £35 18 month contracts.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] simcarloc:
Ahh, thought it might be via a third-party.

Nice going though! I forget to look for deals outside of Orange...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] StarMonkee:
nice, I got (direct from orange):

£25 p/m (18 month contract)

600 mins, unlimited texts, unlimited data (500mb fair use)

I don't think that's bad for a 'new customer'. It's on cashback but a nicer deal than the phones4u one. They offered me £180 for any old phone, and it would take £10 off my £35 bill every month, so I'm only billed £25 per month. I gave them an old Samsung D500 that didn't work, and had no charger or any extras!

To be fair, I dont think I've gone over 300 mins yet, so I'm happy :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Doombrain:
How did you get on?

I'm in the same exact boat, I can't understand why a company would stop me from spending more money with them as I’d be more inclined to use IE and video call.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] fasty:
I was in a similar situation with Orange.

Because I am still on the ancient "Everyday 50" tarrif, the local Orange shop wouldn't even consider allowing me a fully paid upgrade to a 3G phone let alone give me a 3G SIM :mad: (unless of course I changed tariff)

I phoned retentions politely explaining the situation : I wanted to use mobile internet and potentially spend more, but because they wouldn't even sell me an upgrade phone, the only choice I seemed to have was to migrate elsewhere.

The chap explained that there was NO WAY they could give me a 3G SIM.

On the other hand, they could give me, free, an upgrade to a shiny new Nokia 6500 classic phone. Duh:p

So, next day, I have a shiny new phone with shiny new 3G SIM, plus 2 months free trial of internet services.

So, in summary, if you need a 3G SIM for your PDA, it seems worth talking nicely to Orange retentions.

How do I change the default Contacts app on Pixel 4a running Android 11??? Aftering searching for the answer, I can tell you:

1. It is not under Apps & Notifications / Default Apps. (Yes, some apps are listed, but Contacts is not listed.)

2. It is not by Apps / Contacts / Open by default. (It says, "No defaults set")

3. I don't want to run a different launcher. I just want to use a different Contacts app.

It seems like a simple thing, I just can not figure it out.

Any help would be appreciated...
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] EngineerMind:
Try installing a new contacts app, then when you try an operation that normally would invoke the contacts app, it should pop up a dialog to select which contacts app should be the default (the built in one or the new one you installed).

Also, it might say "no default app" if there is only one contacts app installed on the device (so there is nothing to choose between), so trying the above will test that theory.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] bvote:
Sorry, should have included that info. Phone has both standard Contacts and a second app "Smart Contacts".
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] bvote:
Maybe I figured it out. Loaded third contact app and got the choice for default! Apparently Smart Contacts does not register as a Contacts app... Thanks for the help.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] EngineerMind:
Then certain apps, like the built-in phone app might be hard-coded to use the built-in contacts app for certain functions (but not all contact functions), just like the built-in camera app is hard-coded to use the built-in photos app to preview just taken pictures.

But for things like clicking on a phone number in an email should display a "Select Contact app" if you have two contact apps installed (and you have not selected a default contacts app after installing the second contacts app)
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] EngineerMind:
So when that "select contact app" dialog box finally did appear (after you installed the third app), are you saying that "Smart Contacts" wasn't in that list?
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] bvote:
yup. When I loaded "Simpler Contacts" app and triggered the contacts, I got a choice between "Contacts" (Google's installed app) and Simpler. Smart Contacts did not appear in the list. (I know Smart Contacts was functional. It would load my contacts when opened.)

I really appreciate the help with this... :-)

would i also need to update the radio aswell or just the install the SwifBL rom

[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] fefe78:
Hi all,

I'm facing this strange problem with the sd card, suddenly it is no more detected from the phone. Started to think that was a defective SD card so I replaced it with a new one ( same type and capacity ), but the problem appeared again after few days, no matter if I reinsert the sd card, reboot,switch off the phone.

I noticed the strange thing that putting the card into a Windows based computer ( and there it's fully functional ) and then back in the phone makes the sd card readable again, meanwhile doing the same thing with a computer Linux based does not work, also here the memory card is not detected, as if it is a problem related to Linux based systems. Every few days the problem comes back.

Before buying another sd card of another brand I would like to know is someone else had this issue.

Thanks everybody.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] howdeedodat:
i guess u put ur sd card as internal memory in ur phone thats why when u remove it the sd card the sd card will broken and not usable anymore its like the Mi A1 the setting on it set the sd card as internal thats why when the sd card were take out but the phone is on u wil be having a damage sd card..

solution try to figure the setting is off, or try to pull out the sd card n put it in again while phone turn off try not turn on the phone whilw the sd card is out...

sorry for my bad english ^^
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] fefe78:
No, it's not like that... I use the SD card as an external storage for storing photos and music.. I never remove the sd card, all by itself becomes unreadable by the phone after few hours, and it's absolutely not damaged, because I can read it from another computer. Seems that the phone is someway unmount it in a bad way, indeed If I put in a windows computer and then back in the phone the SD card is detected again. Will try to buy another SD of a different brand, maybe it's just someway incompatible

2 days ago FP scanner on my phone stopped recognizing my fingers. Reboot didn't help. When I try to add new fp's, it does add them successfully, but right then when I pressed "Identify fingerprint" it fails. I press my finger but it just vibrates and does not identify it.

I've tried factory reset but it didn't help either. It seems that scanner itself is operational, but there is some SW problem.

Any help is appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] harry jaems:
Hi, after flashing stock firmware through odin, my phone is stuck on the samsung logo. My phone is the UK O2U variant of the SM-G965F. When the phone is stuck on the samsung logo, it shows up in chimeratool as "unknown samsung phone in modem mode" so I assume this is caused by the efs partition being ****ed, so the OS can't initialize properly.

When entering recovery I get the efs invalid argument error. I have tried resetting data and cache in recovery and then reflashing stock firmware again, but that didn't seem to help. I can't flash TWRP because the bootloader seems to have relocked itself, as I get an error that only samsung firmwares can be flashed.

I purchased a piece of software called "chimeratool" for 80 euros, but I don't have the option to repair efs for some reason, i think maybe because of the bootloader being locked.

If anyone knows how I can flash TWRP without booting or any help would be greatly appreciated. I can give a monetary reward if anyone manages to help me fix this.

[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] RoboNinjaR:
I wanted to flash a recovery, get a custom rom because I hate MIUI bloatware and I wanted to root my phone. I do have prior experience to rooting phones and getting custom roms. I am thinking of flashing OrangeFox recovery, a debloated rom of MIUI and magisk on my note9s. I just want to get one or 2 things clear before I start. When flashing a new rom or rooting, do you need to flash No-Verity-OPT-Encrypt or not? And also in what order do I flash what, I suppose it would be the custom rom, magisk and the No-Verity-OPT-Encrypt if you need it.

Also, regarding the link for the MIUIEU rom https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/miui-11-0-stable-release.52628/, should I install this one?
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] MrSlatts12:
I would search this XDA site for your specific model number and specific stock software. You should find a rooting guide that will give you a step by step process that you should follow in that specific order to gain root access. Once you have root access you can go back and do all the customizations you want. I also have a Samsung device and I did a Google search and YouTube search on how to root my particular model. You might find some variations in these instructions, but you will also find commonalities. Notice what those commonalities are and that is a clue to what is necessary in order to achieve root. Hope that helps - Good luck.
