They're making money by endangering public safety. An FM radio is a basic necessity during an emergency. They really ought to legislate access to weather, AM, and FM radio as a minimum necessity in 5 years. Just my angry stupid opinion.

[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Riyal:
No FM Radio for the sole reason that there is no headphone jack anymore. It is being used as an antenna for the FM chip so having an FM radio without an antenna is pretty much useless. No more no less. No need for conspiracy theories here.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] febex:
Absolutely I agree
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] varcor:
"No FM Radio for the sole reason that there is no headphone jack anymore"

Totally disagree, if a 3.5 jack will accommodate the antenna a Type C Connector can accomplish this function just as easily. Conspiracy? How about common sense? It's all about $$$. Nextradio was unsuccessful at convincing Apple to activate the hybrid radio app on iPhones, that's why they tanked. Either way it would be a critical feature in an emergency setting, possibly a life saver, device manufacturers are well aware of this.

Effort to promote hybrid radio app and build FM chip awareness produces disappointing outcome

[OnePlus 9] illusiveairforce:
Just making a general statement and handing out my thoughts and opinions.

I was using Google Fi on my OP6 and now my OP9. They dont support the OP9 which made me disappointed.

Everything worked correctly. Just didnt get 5G or full bands and connections your supposed too. It would even say LTE or 5G, but the speeds the same lol.

So heres my advice, I did some checking around.....

This is for USA and Some of Canada.

MINT Mobile supports the OnePlus 9/9 Pro

Full data speeds using 5G

And has an incredibly low price.

$30 a month/3month Plan for $90 unlimited everything.

Data speeds slowed at 35gbs of use. Google Fi is $60 unlimited and slowed my speeds at 22gbs. When i wasnt at home using weeeefeee(wifi hehe)

Thought I would share that.

I experienced the same problem a few days ago, when i put my phone into the sea for two days in a row. The phone gathered moisture and the camera lenses fogged up, and this message popped up for about 18 hours. Then the lenses cleared up, i deleted the camera's cahe and data and everything is back to normal.

Any way to increase that tiny led light? It almost got no benefit. Or any apps to add a notification light on screen such as around the camera cutout ?

Thanks
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] pl1992aw:
Find the option for turn on the screen when notification came.

Your request will work better if the screen is OLED with AOD.

LCD screen use more power when the screen is turned on. It's not possible to partially turned on. (At least haven't seen that ability on LCD screen)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] pbaker22:
I have many ebooks in the MS Reader format (.LIT). When I open them they are displayed in small font only. For some reason it is not possible to change the size; when I go to 'Settings' and increase the font size nothing happens - the small font remains. I have changed the TP's font size in the Settings-System-Screen menu but without success. I don't know what else it could be. I have removed and reinstalled MS Reader several times but this did not resolve this issue.

I did not have this problem on my old TyTn. Does anybody have ideas or has anybody else run into this?
[OPPO Find X3 Pro] brunolongo:
Hi guys. I just bought the Chinese version because the global version is more expensive and harder to find for delivery in my country. The device has not yet arrived in my hands.

I would like to know if there is a chance for Oppo to put all languages in the Chinese version. In my case it would be the Portuguese language.

My second question is: are there other differences between the Chinese version and the global version besides the languages?

And the last question is: are you happy with the device or not?
[OPPO Find X3 Pro] maxellxl:
Chinese version has lots of chinese bloatware and doesnt have google apps so you have to install them manually. For the language support...i doubt it.

Im happy with my global version but it has few really annoying bugs.
[OPPO Find X3 Pro] arh91:
Apparently you can put the apps installed by the user in languages not supported by the operating system.

(I have not tried it, the Find X3 still does not arrive)

Instructions

1. Download this app:

SetEdit SettingsDatabaseEditor - Apps on Google Play

Provides direct access to the Android settings database

play.google.com

2. Inside the app, search "system_locales".

3. Change the value to:

"pt_BR" (Portuguese, Brazil) or

"pt_PT" (Portuguese, Portugal)

[ASUS ZenFone 8] dohanin:
I understand there is no TWRP recovery for Zenfone 8 yet, but according to other posts, their are other ways to root the phone, e.g. using Magisk boot image patch method.

I tried, but I'm not able to flash the boot image in fastboot. I'm able to boot to fastboot mode, but it's showing no device when I use "fastboot devices" with USB connection. If I enter recovery mode, "adb devices" is showing unauthorized.

I don't know how to proceed. Appreciate your help!
[ASUS ZenFone 8] dohanin:
It's solved by plugging the USB cable to USB 2.0 port on the PC :)
[ASUS ZenFone 8] banannerz:
Good to hear it worked out. I was going to suggest installing a driver when in fastboot mode.

How did you get the boot image btw? I've never tried for anything other than a Lineage OS device, for which all the files are easily accesible.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] dohanin:
To get the boot image:

1. Get the full firmware form Asus official site: (must get the same version as your current phone)

https://www.asus.com/UK/supportonly/ZenFone 8 (ZS590KS)/HelpDesk_BIOS/

2. Extract payload.bin from the zip file

3. Use Payload Dumper to extract the img files, and you'll find boot.img

note. their are some versions requiring to install Python on your PC. I found this one with executable:

https://ava4.androidfilehost.com/dl...18474/2188818919693785372/Payload_Dumper.zip?

4. Use Magisk to patch boot.img.

Hope this helps.

Please note after flashing the patched boot.img, your phone will be rooted but it fails safetynet. Have to install the module "safetynet-fix-v1.1.0.zip", then everything is fine.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] DerSteppo:
After opening the bootloader and rooting the phone, are there any disadvantages you discovered? Warning screen on boot, (banking) apps not working, etc.?
[ASUS ZenFone 8] dohanin:
Yes, there is a warning screen on boot. And yes, some banking apps I use can't be cheated by Magisk Hide, but I use Work profile (via Island) to work around it. So far so good.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] DerSteppo:
OK thanks for the information! :)
[ASUS ZenFone 8] yunyou:
After rooting, it seems that the official ota update cannot be detected, and it cannot be seamlessly achieved by using the Magisk to install to the unused slot. Is there any other way to achieve the update? For example, OnePlus can choose to install the full ota downloaded from the official website locally.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] banannerz:
Ah, thanks that did help. I didn't know the full firmware was available from the site.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] dohanin:
Do you mean you already tried this with Zenfone 8 OTA update after rooting? I did it with firmware "WW-30.11.51.67" and it's still the current one, so I don't know whether it would work or not.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] yunyou:
I found ota's solution. Download the "WW-30.11.51.67" firmware from the official website and move it to the main storage directory of the phone. Then the phone should detect the update file, but if the phone does not prompt, then try to restart the device. When the phone restarts and enters the system again, the system will detect the update, and there will be an update launcher notification in the notification bar!

When the system update interface is over, when prompted to restart, install to an unused slot through the Magisk option. Select the installation to keep ROOT to achieve seamless ota.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] grootzy:
If you use DRM Info app do you still have Widevine L1 security level? (needed for netflix hd playback) thanks.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] dohanin:
yes, it's showing L1 in Widevine CDM
[ASUS ZenFone 8] grootzy:
Thanks, great news that ASUS are not being dicks with the bootloader unlocking.

For anyone else who isn't too clear on the steps (like me!) - After patching the boot image with magisk you then can use adb to pull that image to a PC and then use adb reboot bootloader and then fastboot boot patched-image.img to check the rooting works without flashing anything and then use adb reboot bootloader again and then fastboot flash boot patched-image.img to write it to the flash memory if everything went smoothly. This worked for me and everything seems great. Obviously you need adb and fastboot set up on your PC for this to work. I'm not sure if this was the intended method but it is what I did.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] fatjoez:
did you try hiding magisk manager by changing the magisk manager package name? (it's an option in magisk manager).

some apps detect the magisk manager app to guess rooting.

If you hide magisk app + use magiskhide on the bank app it should be working.

please check let me know
[ASUS ZenFone 8] dohanin:
hi, yes i tried but while most apps are working fine, some banking apps can still detect root. however, for those apps, if i disable the magisk app beforehand, then it can be passed. i could not figure why since the magisk app is already with a random package name. i posted my query in the magisk forum too.

anyway, with this method, i don't need to use work profile now.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] ku232:
Hi everbody.

I hope someone can help me out.

I unlocked my Zenfone 8 with the official unlock tool and i want to relock the bootloader back.

I was using commands like fastboot oem asus-lock, fastboot flashing lock, but nothing works.

Did Asus changed something in Android 11?

In Android 10 the first command was working without problems.

Thanks
[ASUS ZenFone 8] dron39:
You can't lock it back.

Only to change motherboard.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] ku232:
Oh that's bad news. Thank you very much for your fast answer.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] banannerz:
Can you explain further on this? Are you saying to install the firmware to an unused slot? What exactly is an unused slot? I haven't seen anything like this in magisk.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] dohanin:
Do you see the different installation methods after clicking "install"? I can see "Select and Patch a File", "Direct Install (Recommended)" and "Install to Inactive Slot (After OTA)". yunyou is referring to the last one.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] banannerz:
Ah I see. I probably didn't see that before because I've only gone through the installation the initial time, so it was only showing me the first option.

And so what exactly is the benefit to doing this? It keeps root access without having to flash the device again?
[ASUS ZenFone 8] banannerz:
So, I've ran into this issue on my last phone and it was a pain to figure out how to fix it. I just got my zenphone and ran into this issue as well. Switching from a USB C port to USB A port didn't help like it did with you. Fortunately, I had a pretty good idea of what to do this time.

In case you or anyone runs into this issue again and no other solutions are working, the definitive way to solve this problem is to install the drivers for the phone while it's in fastboot mode. The drivers used to communicate with the phone while the phone is on won't help when the phone is connected in fastboot mode.

You can get the phone drivers from the asus website under any phone's support page. For some reason they don't have a windows 10 version, but the windows 8 one worked fine for me.

Fortunately this guide also popped up just as I got my zenphone. To install the driver while the phone is in fastboot mode, first go to device manager and find the phone, it will probably be listed under "other devices". Right click to update the driver. From there, you can follow the last section of this guide "Manually install the driver for an unsupported device".

Updating the driver in this manner has worked flawlessly for me twice now.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] dohanin:
Right, using the inactive slot method, u don't have to patch and flash the boot image manually.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] banannerz:
Worked perfectly, thanks :)
[ASUS ZenFone 8] marvi0:
Hi buddy, if I may ask please, what is this work profile (via island), please?
[ASUS ZenFone 8] dohanin:
Android since version 5.0 supports enterprise mode (or called work profile, managed profile, etc.) via APIs. Easy implementation can be done via apps like Island (by Oasis Feng). You can search in Google Play and give it a try.

https://xdaforums.com/t/magisk-general-support-discussion.3432382/page-2375#post-85573141

You just need to install safetynet-fix-v1.2.0-MOD.zip. It works for me.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] Freak07:
Widevine stays L1 after bootloader unlocked.

You'll no longer receive OTAs from asus, but can easily install full firmware zips from asus website.

Depending on the country they might be able to refuse warranty. (They shouldn't be able to in the EU)
[ASUS ZenFone 8] P3aK:
Hmm, I'm having some difficulties with getting the patched image to flash.

fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img

gives this:

sending 'boot' (98304 KB)...

OKAY [ 3.097s]

writing 'boot'...

FAILED (remote: No such file or directory)

finished. total time: 3.113s

Where am I screwing this up?
[ASUS ZenFone 8] dron39:
Very strange...

Have you unlocked your BL with asus utility first?

You should have at least one OS load after that procedure I guess to format data and maybe some asus files/partitions.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] P3aK:
Yeah, I did the BL unlock and it tells me very clearly on boot that my files and phone and everything is scary and so forth.

All data was erased and I booted the phone to set it up and installed Magisk.

Transfered extracted boot.img and let Magisk do it's work.

Transfered patched boot.img to adb-folder and did: "adb devices" to see that phone was attached.

adb reboot fastboot, to reboot phone into fastboot mode.

did "fastboot devices" to make sure everything is connected in fastboot.

then: fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img

and the result is? "boot" doesn't exist? I'm stumped.

EDIT: Ok this is my fault. I used a VERY old installation of ADB and Fastboot that I guess couldn't be relied upon. I wiped and got new files and it worked on the first try. Thank you for your time! :)
[ASUS ZenFone 8] P3aK:
Ok, now that I finally got the patched boot flashed. Have root and added the safetynet-fix-v1.2.0-MOD.zip so I pass Safetynet....

I start up Netflix: "Please update to the latest version of Netflix app to proceed."

Press: OK

Opens up Play Store.... lo and behold: "This app is no longer compatible with your device. Contact the developers for more info."

FFS!!!! This is exactly what I didn't want!!!!

Help me. If this is working for you, tell me how I'm being stupid. Please!

EDIT: I'll answer my own question here.

Go to Settings, Apps & Notifications, See all apps.

Netflix, Storage & Cache.

Clear storage, clear cache.

Go back.

Disable Netflix

Go back.

Google Play Store, Storage & Cache

Clear storage, clear cache.

Go back.

Enable Netflix

In Magisk, go to Superuser (the sheild icon), MagiskHide, press Search icon, enable "Show System apps" and Show OS apps"

Find Netflix, hide Magisk for Netflix,

Now you can open Netflix app and follow the prompt to update the app in Google Play Store, and this time it will update and work,
[ASUS ZenFone 8] Amax:
I did this Magisk rooting a while back (phone is on .36), when I manually update, can I go directly to .72 or should I go in order .36 -> .46 -> .56 etc?

Is it worth upgrading to Android 12? Do Magisk and Google Pay while rooted etc work there?

I have experienced that when I start a camera app it just went to stop by displaying a "Unfortunately Camera has stopped" warning. I have restarted my device and again try to open the app and still, frequently it went stopped. How can I resolve this error to start capturing again?
[General Questions and Answers] KS Fernando:
Sometimes it will be caused, when you install the third-party camera app or when an app is not supported by the device hardwires. If it is not working after restarting, just try these steps.

1. Uninstall the other camera app

Sometimes when you are using other camera apps it may block the main camera app on your Android. If non of the camera app installed skip this and move next action.

2. Clear cache and data of the Camera App

By clearing cache data camera will restart with fresh mode and still not running delete the app data and it will resolve your problem.

3. Clear or wipe system cache.

For this purpose go to “Settings”, select “Storage & Memory”, and tap on “Cache data”. Now You can click “OK” to confirm. Otherwise, you can perform stock recovery and the delete system cache.

4.Update your software

Sometimes the pending updates may require proper functioning. So try next time with the installed updates for Samsung Galaxy A21

5.Flash Stock ROM

If you have flashed any custom or ported ROM then make sure to install stoke ROM. If you already have stock ROM download flash ROM by given instructions here.

6.Install Google Camera App.

If all of the above solutions do not work for you try to install the Google Camera app and set it as the primary camera app. Try it after disabling the stock camera app through the settings.

First, you may need to hold on to the app icon and tap on the info option. Then you can press disable the camera app.

Alternatively, you can go to settings, select Application List, and tap camera.

7. Reset your device

If all of the above steps are fail on positive resulting, then finally you can Reset the android device. Before that create a backup of all personal data on your device to ensure the data's existence after resetting. To do that Go to “Setting”, select “Backup & Reset”. Then tap Factory data reset. Now you can Reset the Phone. Read more...

So it looks like you never authorized it between the phone and the computer. When you enable USB debugging and then plug in a USB cable, a window will pop up with a check box and ask if you want to authorize/trust this device and you mark the box and click yes. I'm guessing you didn't do that? But what about turning it off and starting in fastboot mode. Forget ADB for the time being and start in fastboot mode. If that doesn't work, make sure you have the right drivers and try again. Otherwise, that's all I've got. I'm sorry...

this phone was rooted on this computer using adb and fastboot. How do I start it in fastboot?

[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] nogods:
Thank you for that info. So here is what happens.

1. I shut it down by pressing both power and down volume buttons while attaching it to a charger.

2. I start it in fastboot mode by holding down the down volume button while attaching it to the computer.

3. The computer notification says "preparing pixel 4a" and I heard the classic connected sound.

4. If I try "adb devices" I get back an empty list of devices (unlike when I just connected it without holding down the down volume button, so I think that means it is NOT in adb mode, right?)

5. But if I try "fastboot device" or any other fastboot command it merely says "waiting for any device"
