[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] bigfire:
"it's enough real estate for me.". That's really the key. For me, I use my phone to read a lot, and it feels like the same difference between an iphone and an ipad - essentially the same, but the extra real estate makes for a different, more compelling experience. It's hard to know in tech whether something will be a gimmick or utterly amazing, but for my purposes, the Fold 2 is the latter.

I haven't had a problem with durability. I don't ever use a case for a phone, and I don't baby them. Over the years I've had to repair two phone screens, but it's worth it to preserve the tactile feel of these phones. I pay for insurance for the Fold 2, which I've n ever done before, but over the last year I've had zero problems with it, and I took off the inner screen.

I have complaints about specific elements of everything, but for me, I'm very happy with the evolution of phones. Though I agree that 5G hasn't exactly panned out as the game changer that was promised.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] skally:
Yeah, I don't have any issues keeping my devices in perfect condition either. No difference with a device having two displays. I don't use cases or screen protectors, and every year my device gets assessed as 100% perfect by the Samsung upgrade program. If I'm spending a significant amount of money on anything, I look after it.

My Note 20 ultra screen is fine for some stuff, but sometimes I want a bigger display. The fold 3 has one, and it still fits in my pocket. I'm looking forward to the next iteration having two hinges and giving me a 10" tablet when unfolded.

I've had a 512gb model the last 3 iterations. Never filled it, and internal storage is way faster than microsd. Additional cost of the larger storage is barely different than buying a separate card.

5g is great on my note 20 ultra, I don't even have wired home internet anymore, I swapped it for a second sim unlimited card. I can stream 4k movies, play stadia and download as much as I like on my phone or home data sim.

Some people are better suited to last years technology, and get irate when that technology gets left behind. Same thing is happening with people who refuse to let go of the internal combustion engine.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] chetly968:
It was curious, I went to preorder in my computer and the trade in for my fold2 was $800. Then I just happened to get on my phone and preorder and it was $900. So obviously I preordered on my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] bigfire:
I was looking at my phone, and noticed I'd used up half of 256. I do still miss microsds, as I like to store my entire music collection there. Yes, I can stream, but it's not 100%, and the response time on the various apps I've used (Plex, Youtube Music, etc.) is pretty poor in searching. Plus, when you upgrade, you can pop the card out and just move it to the new phone. But the memory upgrades are definitely cheaper than they used to be, and as 5G gets better, the pain alleviates.

Depending on where you are, 5G is apparently amazing, but I have yet to experience it personally. I see the 5G symbol a lot, but my streaming isn't noticeably better, and I experienced it in a lot of places while I was just recently doing a cross country drive. I will say that Google Fi worked great. I had to buy a second phone to use it (since dual esim isn't activated for us domestically) but my daughter was able to stream video throughout most of the drive. Really good coverage.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] bigfire:
It turns out I was getting a better deal because I'd signed up for their pre-order program. So when I went to Samsung using that link, I got the better trade in deal, but not if I just went there directly.

I did go ahead and pre-order it, thought I'm 90% sure I'm going to send it back and wait for next year's model. It's nice to keep on the upgrade path for maximum trade in value, I'm just not convinced I'm going to get a noticeably better phone with the new model. Assuming I don't drop my Fold 2 in water. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] chetly968:
Ah maybe that explains it. I used the link I was emailed on my phone so maybe that's why the trade in deal was better. I doubt I'll get a better experience than the Z Fold 2. Especially since I don't use s-pens, like ever. But I gotta upgrade to the new hotness. It's what I do, lol.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] PanosT:
Help me!

I run AOSP 7.3 and TWRP 3.4.0.0 (or 3.3.0.0, i don't remember)

I flashed orangefox 11 following this: https://techrrival.com/flash-recovery-adb-fastboot/

after last step: (Reboot the Device Type the following command to reboot your device “fastboot reboot”), phone stuck loading AOSP.

I then managed to re flash TWRP 3.4.0.0 trying to solve the problem but still stuck loading AOSP...

The problem is that when i run ADB commands it responds: error: no device\emulators found,

I managed to solve it the first time by killing adb and exiting usb device, then running again, but now this doesnt work anymore.

Please Help as this is my main and only phone...

By pressing and holding both volume buttons and power button for 15 seconds, After vibration signal released the power button, while keep holding both volume buttons I’ve successfully booted into TWRP recovery.

By choosing reboot to system it still stuck loading AOSP.

What should i do now?

I wiped cache and everything went back to normal.

thnx
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] xNAPx:
I don't get it, you have a global ROM and you want a global ROM?

I suppose that you actually have the unofficial Xiaomi EU ROM. Well a global ROM is not due since the Mi 11 Pro is only on China market. You might try to flash the Mi 11 Ultra and see if it runs ok. Usually Mi 11 Ultra and Pro share the same firmware/ROM

Hi,

I've already reported this on the OnePlus forums, wanting to spread visibility here, encouraging others who've experienced the same to report it.

Logcat was not enabled.

Yesterday evening I took 20 or so photo at a wedding, during this time, the UI froze and when it came back I lost all my front screen customisation and settings. Also when checking the photos they seem to have bled some light, this may have been caused by the lighting in the venue.

My phone is fully stock, with no modifications.

Hello. I bricked my Realme x50 Pro 5G Europe Version while rooting, usually no big deal for me.

Now I'm looking to find the right ROM, what is the difference between PU / EU or nothing at the end of the version?

For what model do I need it? I found a ROM for a RMX2075 and a RMX2076, both marked as Realme x50 Pro.

On the box of my phone is written "RMX2075" but on this website is the 2075 for the normal version without 5G and RMX2076 for the 5G Version. (Screenshot)

[Android Apps and Games] Aerogenous:
Hi there,

I'm so glad I came across your post. I've been trying to figure out how this feature works in my unrooted Lenovo M10 HD 2ndGen tablet. I see it in Settings/Sound/Sound Enhancement with only one solitary setting and when enabled, nothing changes. Sound is what it has always been, the same, then and now. I've had my tablet for a year now. My question is how does this feature work ? What does BesLoudness require in order to work ? I have disabled certain features of my tablet for security and privacy reasons, for the same reason, some apps are disabled like Maps, Social Media apps. I have also disallowed certain permissions for certain apps that I felt no need to allow since I never used the feature the permission was required for. Somewhere along the way I might have disabled certain settings, or disallowed permissions that unknowingly rendered BesLoudness not to work.

This BesLoudness Volume Booster for Speakers has stumped me for a year now. Thank you for reading this.

Hi,

Some users have the VOLTE option in sim card settings. It should be under or above "data roaming" option.

However, the VOLTE option is missing for me. When I make calls, it drops to 3g service. I am using t-mobile in USA so VOLTE should be working and supported. My concern is that t-mobile plans to block devices without VOLTE in April 2022, so if i cannot figure it out, i would have to sell the device :(

Any ideas how to activate it?
[Realme GT] Socialism:
I suggest 3 things. Had this issue (but not in US) and these helped VOLTE show up again. Try them in this order and if VOLTE shows up, great, no need to do the rest.

First thing:

Go to "Developer options" and set "5G Network Mode" to "NSA + SA Mode".

May help depending on ISP setup. No clue what TMOB is up to. This allows maximum compatibility, but MAY drain battery faster -- I don't know the full impact of this setting. Note that it often reverts to "default" when rebooting.

Second thing:

Settings > SIM card & mobile data > (pick active SIM card) > toggle 5G off then on again

(On this page I previously had VOLTE option, but it mysteriously disappeared)

Third thing:

1) remove SIM card(s)

2) reboot phone

3) reinsert SIM card(s)

4) reboot phone

Depending on country, sometimes carriers/towers aren't super reliable.

Good luck!
[Realme GT] starrscream22:
Hey thanks for the suggestions.

First thing: When I go to developer options, that 5g option is greyed out for me. I cannot select it.

Second thing: I only have 4/3g/2G toggle. I did download an app called "force LTE" which activates 5G.

Third Thing; Didn't work.

Thanks for trying to help me. Are you in USA by any chance?

Can you try borrowing a family member/friend's SIM card for 5 mins from their phone and seeing if LTE is greyed out with their card too? If so you can assume it's the phone and not ISP that's being weird...

This Qi charger's original power supply outputs 5V(2A) or 9V(1.67A).

The Qi charger picks what it wants based on the phone placed on it.

I would like to know if I can use a QC4.0 power supply which can deliver 5V(3A), 9V(3A), 12V(2.25A), 20V(1.35A). (No switches are used, it is left to the device to pull what it needs).

I guess the EP-NG930 will only pull the voltage and current that it needs (5 or 9 volt) but I am not sure.

[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] mantunes71:
Hi,

Huawei keeps updating our Mate 20X, to our satisfaction I would say since it's just such a good phone...

Per some sites, Huawei released some weeks back Android May 2021 security update. And before March Security update...

Huawei Mate 20 devices (EMUI 11) starts getting May 2021 security update [Global]

Huawei is delivering a new software update for one of the popular smartphone lineups around the world, the Huawei Mate 20. This previous-gen flagship lineup has a separate fan base and satisfying its users with its camera and hardware performance. Due to its popularity and core configuration...

www.huaweicentral.com

The issue is that my phone seems to have stopped receiving OTA updates and I'm stuck on 11.0.0.140 which has January 2021 Security update.

I live in Portugal and I've reach out to Huawei here about this. Their feedback is that my phone is up-to-date, contrary to those articles.

Anyone else having this issue? If you've received recent OTA updates, can you please comment with the version and country where you live?

Thanks.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] mwatson:
I called Huawei support today. They confirmed we will not be getting any more security patches beyond Jan 2021. This phone isn't even 3 years old yet. My wife's Oneplus 6 is bang up to date. The Mate 20X was the last Huawei I'll ever buy.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] mantunes71:
Yes, same feedback I got from Huawei in Portugal.

What's strange is that in some countries or perhaps just to the other Mate 20 models, Huawei is still releasing updates -- not considering the Mate 20X 5G which should still be in Huawei's monthly security update cycle.

Anyway, the page of the link above, shows what seems to be a Mate 20 (model ?), receiving EMUI 11.0.0.158 and a previous article from Huawei Central, shows one in Germany receiving update .150.

My interest here is mainly the Android security updates. Except from this, my phone is working fine...
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] jbmc83:
as per usual, such updates are rolled out in vastly different time frames for different regions (china, asia, europe, global, middle east, etc.) and also phone types (i.e. the linked article ONLY mentions Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro, but NOT the Mate 20 X). so no choice but to be patient and share info here whenever we have smth new :)

im on a chinese EVR-AL00 with Mar-2021 security patch, emui version 11.0.0.139.

edit: ok....LOL, so after posting this i got curious and checked update status in settings, nothing there. so i went into the my huawei app, selected china as region, went into the support section and updates, checked there: bam, update available to 11.0.0.155! changelog: nothing exciting, just improves system stability in certain situations. installed update (no change of security patch btw, still march), checked again in my huawei app aaaand: update available again! this time to harmony OS 2.0.0.165!

however, im not proceeding with that one, im skeptical of that half baked try by huawei to "fake" a new OS (fake because its still based on android 10, imagine that...) and rather stick to emui for now...

besides, im actually planning to roll back to emui 9 in a few months, unlock bootloader and try my luck with GSI roms to upgrade to android 11 or even 12 ^^ could be exciting if it works, havent found anyone yet trying it on a 20 x...

[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] Mongroovy:
Haven't noticed worse battery life but I didn't really keep track of how many hours I got before. I never used the screen sharing feature.
