[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] pieces of cake:
Are you saying it doesn't come with adhesive strips, or they're just not necessary?

I've been laughing to myself about all of the people and reviews I've read complaining about the adhesive strips used in most Z Fold3 cases, as it seems those complaining have no idea how/why the strips are used...

I made my own for my Ringke Slim case because the ones included weren't strong enough for my liking. I want the slimmest case possible, but would like it to at least have a channel for an adhesive strip along the backside of the left portion of the cover display. The Aramid cases all appear to be the slimmest offerings.

I've pre-ordered the Spigen Thin Fit P as my "bulky" "going out and need slightly better protection that also houses my S Pen Fold" case.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] pside15:
It doesn't have adhesive strips. The more I use it today, I kinda wish it did have them. There is a bit too much movement on the left side of the front. It definitely doesn't feel like it's going to come off or anything but a strip like on the Samsung Aramid case would probably help. Still a good case for the price in my opinion.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] pieces of cake:
Thanks for the quick reply. I decided to just order the official Samsung Aramid case.

I was running without a case for the first 4 days (got my ZF3 a week earlier than anticipated), had the phone in my pocket while charging it with an external power bank and the USB cable was sticking a bit too far out of my pocket. The cable loop got caught on a drawer handle as I was walking through my kitchen and it yanked both the power bank and the phone out. They landed pretty hard on the floor. My ZF3 was MOSTLY unscathed, but there's a very tiny dent/nick at the top-right corner of the front cover half, only visible when looking directly down at the phone at the right angle and in the right light. No one notices it but me and it's not visible when using the phone normally and looking at the screen. It's completely concealed when any type of case is on, but I know it's there underneath and, of course, it bothers the heck out of me just knowing it's there on a brand new $1,800.00 device.

I have full protection through my carrier which also covers accidental damage but every version of the device appears to be on backorder and I certainly can't do anything about that. I'll probably wait until there's additional damage like screen scratches and other nicks and dents before I file a claim to get a brand new replacement, but I want to make sure that the replacement goes immediately into some kind of case.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] catman51:
A little upsetting. Was waiting for Spigen's S Pen case and Neo Hybrid. International reviews on Amazon say they are both crap.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] pside15:
After a few days of using the case I linked above I re-ordered the Samsung Aramid case since I got my full pre-order credit back. The case isn't bad at all for the price but I really loved the feel and fit of the Aramid case for the very short time I used it.

[General Questions and Answers] MrNice:
Hi there,

Few months ago, I was told in XDA site that nowadays changing the ROM is not anymore the best way to de-google a device. Now it is better to de-bloat and tweak the device.

Do you agree with this statement?

Did you change the ROM in your device or only de-bloated it? Tell me your experience. Easy to install, need to root, unblock the bootloader, update, what is NOT working, speed, battery, ...?

I own a Samung Tablet S5e LTE few months old, under guaranty and would like to de-google it. I was thinking to change the ROM, is tit the best way?

What is your advice? If needed, what ROM to use? What way, software to de-bloat?

Many thanks
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 1890170:
Fully agree with this.
[General Questions and Answers] MrNice:
Thank you for your fast answer.

Could you be more specific and tell me why, how (big picture) and if you have experience what tools did you use?
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 1890170:
People most times use terms "De-google" and "De-bloat" not knowing what they are really speaking of. :)

The Vanilla Android ( read: AOSP - today often called GSI ) is totally free of apps developed by Google ( topic: GMS ) and the service ( GFS ) they need to run, this because NOBODY basically needs these to operate a phone. But the overwhelming majority of the users of mobile devices want an Android what is extended by features, so they can download & install more apps, play games, listen to music, watch porn videos. OEMs respect this wish - they want to sell their products - and therefore typically add GMS & GFS to their Android OS, so it in reality becomes a Custom ROM.

Resume: Vanilla Android - and all ROMS that are based on Vanilla Android ( like Lineage OS and many others ) must not get "De-googled".

Bloatware ( or Potentially Unwanted Programs - PUP ) is software users don’t want, that burdens and slows down a mobile device. It usually comes pre-installed by vendors, manufacturers or carriers. IMO "De-bloating" is the first thing a user should do when starting up a new device.

Bloatware typically is installed as system-app, hence phone's Android must got rooted before you can start "De-bloating".
[General Questions and Answers] MrNice:
As I am not very skilled in Android, I appreciate your post.

I installed LineageOS 17.1 on my Samsung S6, it working fine, I am happy for the usage but the only issue I have is that I can't update. This is another story in another XDA forum.

My need are usual plus

Read books, music sheets, social networks, Internet TV, news, training, conference (low bit-rate), email, messaging, GPS travel, basic pictures,

some specific app for music practice (tuner, metronome), veg gardening (I need to find one suitable for me).

but no game, no HD movie (download or stream), no large download

Backup locally (I need to learn more), no cloud usage.

As I run GNU/Linux for around 20 y, I hate to have to register for account in any app from GAFAM and I don't want as much as possible give them my data. I try to select the app without tracker, FOSS and I block the permissions as much as possible.

If I can de-google this is the best for my mindset.

I understand that de-google or de-bloat, I 'll have to root so break Knox. Right?

I don't know if I need GMS and/or GFS for my use. Could you tell me? For what app it is mandatory?

With my S5e I want to be more cautious, I need a way as secure as possible to not brick it.

With all these info, what do you advice?
[General Questions and Answers] tek3195:
For the Tab S5e de-googling it is next to impossible with stock samsung rom. LOS works great on it and not too difficult to install, CRDroid works well on it but is better with google installed, /e/ rom was being developed for it but I don't know if they are still working on it. I built an /e/ rom locally for my Tab S5e last year and it worked very well. If you want to get away from google you need to ditch the OneUI or whatever they are calling it.
[General Questions and Answers] MrNice:
Thanks for you advice, I'll work on it soon.

I dropped my beloved Mi9T today and the power button is now jammed in & unusable.

Before I take it apart to try & fix I wanted to check whether the "Hold down the volume down key and connect your phone via USB cable to your PC" trick works to power on our phones.

If someone could confirm either way that would be super helpful.

Don't have the Miui 12 astrophotography mode yet? I have a Redmi Note 8 and I didn't see it.

I was in a Xiaomi store and I was looking at the camera options and I didn't see any trace of this astrophotography option, I think it was a Mi 11 and a Redmi Note 10.

Does anyone know why? :rolleyes:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] luke99s:
Was using Dutty's latest Kaiser ROM, had a problem with it after installation: when pushing the power button on the side to sleep the phone the light would turn off for about 2 seconds, then the phone would wake back up. The only way it would turn off the screen and sleep is via normal inactivity time period.

Just installed new Ruppy ROM, (spl 3.56 and neon 1.58.25.17 radio) to see if the problem would replicate, and it still does.

Anyone had this problem with their phone?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] griffin911:
I've had this problem for months. I've flashed a dozen different ROM's had both 3.29 and 3.56 Hard SPL (jocky) and nothing fixes it. The problem was originally posted in ROM development but one of the senior MODs moved it but I think those guys who know the programming inside and out would be the best to help us fix this.........

THe only thing I've been able to do is load S2U2 to keep it from dialing or activating programs when it turns itself back on.

Unfortunately, there aren't any TWRP for this device, thanks to it's mediatek chipset. Developers of TWRP are probably more interested in Snapdragon and Exynos phones.

after messing around w/ that site and their various fonts for about an hour, nothing seemed to work. For future reference, if anyone needs to get a font on their PPC that they have on their comp no matter what it is, you can simply go to Windows/fonts on your pc then DRAG (@ least on windows vista it doesn't allow you to copy directly) to another folder. when you drag it will copy it, then from that folder you can load it into the /Windows directory of your phone, then do a soft reset.

[Moto Z Questions & Answers] NovusDeus:
Hi everyone,

it seems that battery issues on these devices are quite common, but I wasn't able to find out much about my observations, yet.

I recently got this model cheap in stock condition and decided to revive it. It's running /e/ OS currently, but the displayed battery percentages are extremely erratic.

When fully charged, the battery drains very consistently for 15-20% per day while in idle. However, if rebooted at any time, the phone immediately shows a completely drained battery at 2-4%. It will stay that way until fully charged again and despite the displayed percentages, the battery-app (correctly?) calculates multiple hours of charge remaining.

It does seem like some kind of software issue, since the phone does not turn off or refuse being charged like other users have mentioned and the battery still does supply hours/days of power.

On the other hand, the issue was apparently also present on the stock Android, so it would have to be either firmware- oder hardware-related?

Has anybody experienced something similar with this or any other device and is there anything I can try to fix this?

Or is the battery itself malfunctioning and needs to be replaced? If yes, are there any brands or replacement models to recommend for this phone?
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] YanDaOne:

then toggle on the Get updates early.
