Most likely since it may take some time. I am using S9+ and it's still getting ROMs even today. The same goes for S4 as well.
[Wing, P4350 General] kart_81:
Hi All,

Today I switched off my phone and I tried to switch it ON, but it was just looping (switching ON and going off before Windows screen comes up). I tried to figure out the problem and noted that this was happening only with SIM CARD present. If I remove the SIM Card and switch it on, the phone switches on without any problem. But with SIM card, it doesn't gets switched on. Can someone help me out with this?

PS: This happens with all different sim cards and not only mine. My sim card works fine with other phones.

Thanks in advance

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] CHV:
Hi,

OnePlus is known for adding 8.8.8.8 (Google) as a secondary DNS if the network provides only one DNS server with DHCP lease.

Is there any method to stop this unwanted behaviour? Maybe a patch for OOS? It's really annoying.

My device is rooted. As I can't make changes to all the networks I'm using, I'd prefer a OOS patch (NOT an additional firewall/port filter).

I already explored the system partition and searched for 8.8.8.8 which is referenced by a few apk. I'm not familiar with Android internals such as network interfaces and scripts.

Hi, I hope someone can help me :)

I have two Samsung Note, a Note 8 since 2017 and now a Note 20 Ultra.

Can you tell me if there is a way to activate Amazon Alexa over bluetooth, for example from a FiiO BTR5 when your smartphone is in your bag and the screen is obviously off?

Of course, I suppose you should have Alexa as assistant in Android and ok... but it's not enough I think.

Thanks in advance

p.s. obviously I'm talking about a case in which you don't have a bluetooth device "with Alexa inside" already :)
[ASUS ZenFone 8] stebrick:
I'm considering whether to buy this phone because how compact and elegant it is. :love:

Thing is the heating issue I've heard of is holding me back. I've heard that the heating issue of Zenfone 8 has been fixed over the last 2 updates but I'm not quite sure about it. Can anyone confirm this? Does intense use (such as 4k video shooting or gaming) make it very hot?

And I wonder, in case it has been fixed, is the Snapdragon 888 CPU performance still the same? I'm worrying that Asus might have lower the CPU frequency or such so that the CPU generates less heat...
[ASUS ZenFone 8] assasss:
Hey,

Intense gaming and 4k video recording will still make the phone hot. After several minutes of 4k recording camera app will close because of overheating.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] Kemez:
What? Maybe in Marrakesch that's true. I just did 5min 8k recording to check that nonsense statement. The phone got warm under the camera. Did not close nor did it give any warning.

Are there any phones that do not get hot during intense gaming??

I am using the provided case and the warmth is there but nothing untouchable nor risky.

I assume it depends where you live. In very hot countries you may get the warning that's it's getting hot.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] assasss:
@Kemez

In Munich, Germany which is not a "hot" country.

Nonsense? Not sure why you have that attitude but there are multiple threads on Zentalk forums about this issue.

Example 1: https://zentalk.asus.com/en/discussion/51884/shut-down-camera-overheating#latest

Example 2: https://zentalk.asus.com/en/discussion/49295/heating-issues-asus-zenfone-8#latest

Which says: "I am barely able to record 6 minutes of 4k 60 fps before the camera app shuts down. And mind you, this happens at an ambient temperature of about 29 °C, not 35. "

There is probably more but I didn't want to waste more time into it

I own and like the phone but the thermals are not the best and I just have said objectively what is the situation right now. Many other phones with the SD888 chipset are suffering from the same issues
[ASUS ZenFone 8] Kemez:
So you live in the same climate as I do. My phone gave me a warning on recording once, when in direct sunlight at around 34C. It has been after around 15min of recording and cooling it in shade or water instantly allowed me to record more.

You say that the camera closes after few minutes of recording. So this happens to you often? Not in a forum - how many times did you have it?

I own flagship phones (LG, Huawei, Asus) since many years and they all get warm under some conditions. Never had any issues because of that.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] assasss:
So it happened to me 3 times and I switched the video recording to FHD 60fps after that.

As I said, I really like the phone, for my usage it is really good and I am sacrificing the thermals for the small form factor and performance. I anyway rarely record videos in general, so I am not at a loss.

For comparison on my previous pixel 3 during summer when the phone is in the car under direct sunlight and android auto is connected I would get the "phone is getting hot" once or twice a year. With the Zenfone 8 it never happened and it even almost doesn't get hot at all under the same circumstances, probably due to a more powerful SoC. But it does get pretty warm during gaming, I think without a case it would be impossible to hold the phone

Hello,

any news on this topic?

Thanks @Blumi511!!!
[ASUS ZenFone 8] Marv7:
Think carefully about buying this phone. I had a problem with a dying phone and it just came back om repair yesterday. It works, but the ASUS support leaves a lot to be desired. It heats up similarly like before, but what is disturbing only in one place - next to the camera. Previously, heat was distributed over the entire surface of device. Next thing, on sides of the back, you can see that the phone was opened. Previously the color at the edges was uniformly black, now the edges are kind of transparent and there are dust spots underneath them. Premium phone ... please ... my phone is not looking good anymore just because the manufacturer made a mistake at the production stage and it had to be repaired .... and something that annoyed me, when I was looking at the phone, I noticed that a few small particles of dust had fallen under the glass with the cameras. They are not too big to create problems with the pictures, but they are there and you can see them. I am slightly disappointed that the phone returned from an authorized service with something like that.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] adam.718:
I have the phone about two months now, normal heat during random bit heavy tasks.

It heats a bit while playing PUBG in highest graphic setting but nothing crazy, you can play full hour with slight heat, I point fan to my phone and hands all ok.

After installing LinageOS I keep battery saver on all the time and phone doesn't heat and battery last all day long, got about 8 hours of display time (but didn't play any game all casual apps/shopping reading and music, some YouTube).

Seems like the 888 chip got more power than needed, I wish Asus make same compact phone with Dimensity or 7xx chips, that would more suits the type of people uses this phone, I think.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Motawa88:
I use smartwatch since the orignal LG Watch (yeah, that square one) and I got hooked with that new gadget.

Since than I owned all of those devices:

LG Watch, LG Watch R, Moto 360 1 and 2, Fossil Gen 5, Gear S3/Classic, Galaxy Watch, Galaxy Watch 3, Galaxy Watch 4, Apple Watch 3,4,5.

I mostly went with android (owned all note phones) and then I got the iPhone 11 and then 12. I used then the apple watch and it was just a blast compared to all the others.

But then I went with the Fold 2 and I couldnt go back to any other phone. I knew then that nothing will come close to the apple watch (at least softwarewise) and I went with the galaxy watch 3.

I was pretty happy with it exept for some things like sometimes it would lag and software wasnt that great. But then I had big hopes for the galaxy watch 4.

I really like the design but the battery life is just laughable, even compared to my watch 3 which would last 2 days with AOD, continious HR etc.

The Watch 4 is laggy ( or not faster than the watch 3) and the battery life is just crazy bad for me.

I can BARELY get through the day (46mm classic) and if I do ANYTHING with it you can see the battery go down by the minute.

I really wanted to love this watch. I dont know if my watch is broken or something because I seem like the online one with these problems. The new wear os sounded promising but in my experience its just the "good" old wear os with a samsung skin. Still bad battery and still lots of hiccups in performance.

And no I have never been a fanboy for any brands I just like to use the products I like the most but the apple watch sadly is not available on android and it seems like the best option is the galaxy watch 3 or 4.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Joe-1972:
I think that you have a problem... I have a battery corruption of about 3/4% hour... I can do all the day and I still have battery... I use it even to sleep...

About speed... I don't have that issue... Is fast and furious :)

Absolutely more faster than my galaxy 3.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] the_ape:
Yeah somethijng not right, this 46mm classis 4 lte I have is certainly snappier than my 3 lte, and battery life is about the same as the 3 lte.

Always on display, using Pujie black watch Face, lte enabled on auto, WiFi on auto,and use it to sleep track, have about 20% after wake up and pop it on charge while I have breakfast and shower and pop it back on.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] alessandro_xda:
I agree with you, the battery life is much less than my old watch active2 (i used to charge it every other day but with the watch4 i have to do it every day)

the performances are worse too... when my alarm rings in the morning i have to wait for the screen to wake up in order to stop it ant it takes some seconds :(.

but i'm finally able to use google pay instead of samsung pay and i hope that the software will improve over time
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Martin7404:
Wow thanks for this hint. Forgot completely about Pujie black. Bought it 5 years ago and had Galaxy watches for the past 4 years or so. Just installed it. But there is no data from Samsung health yet. Any info about that?

Thanks Martin
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] the_ape:
You can have both Samsung health and Google fit running at the same time, what I do!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] stakoz:
My new GW4 battery goes down with about 5%-6%/hour, so roughly 15-20hrs (this with sleep tracking on, snore detection, all notifications on, some exercise (e.g. one hour swimming) and some new apps installation though not too many - maybe 5-10 new apps installed and NO/WITHOUT all time on display.

So not too happy with battery compared to my GW3 which I may reconsider keeping.

Also I was expecting more from Wear OS, notifications on Tizen were straight out of the box, here I had to install an additional Bluetooth notifying app so that all messages (esp. for Whatsapp, Messenger etc to ensure messages and photos come through)...

So first impressions not so good (also spo2 tracking whilst sleeping not working for me even though switched on)

Will keep evaluating but was expecting more, no WOW effect at this time...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] bishop0114:
I got the watch today. First thing I did was put it on my Watch 3 charger. It says charging, then after about 20 seconds says charging paused.... I have a NEW (less than 2 months old) Z fold 2 and when trying the wireless power share, it does the same thing. This is a huge deal breaker for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] daavm:
How do you use Pujie Black with the Galaxy Watch 4? I installd the app both in my phone and the watch but the phone app still says "install on watch"
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] cebs:
I have no problem with PB, after installing everything i went Galaxy Wear and applied the watch face
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] gettinwicked:
What app did you find that allows notifications from those apps you mentioned?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] stakoz:
Informer: messages for Wear OS - Apps on Google Play

Message history and multimedia on your watch, smart replies, sounds, vibrations

[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] irshansk:
Something is wrong with your watch. Don't have any issues with my. In fact, the Watch 3 charger is exactly the same charger as the one that comes with Watch 4.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] davidm007:
Mine (44mm) only uses ~20% overnight (8 hours) and that is with all the sensors going to continuously measure HR and SPO2. I have the Samsung Trio charger and just toss it on there prior to showering and getting dressed. Seems to work pretty well (shrug).
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Mystery1887:
So with my 40mm LTE i got around 35hrs without Aod, Lte, Wifi, Gps and 10min hr - sleepmode/offline mode at night.

Now I replaced it with a 44mm LTE and I get around 40hrs with aod, gps, continuous hr, stress, etc. but LTE and Wifi off. Only on my 2nd charge though.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] gettinwicked:
Btw, you don't need this, those notifications you want ARE all there. Just click more under the apps that show up in the phone app, then the drop-down above that says most recent, then click on it and select all. All there!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] stakoz:
Yes however not All notifications pass through normally, there is no notification history, e.g. if you decide to reply to a message later, and there are no photos visible sent via WhatsApp, messenger, etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] pocoag123:
Does all the whatsap function like voice message and voice call works perfectly without any issue? Is it worth purchasing?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] adj998:
Anyone have any issues using the speaker on the watch? It's a hit or miss for me when it works or not either using Spotify or music I transferred via Galaxy wearable app
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] iainmann:
I've given my GW4 a good shot, but I've now gone back to my Watch 2.

The watchfaces available for the 4 are not good. Few have click-through to apps. Resetting is a chore because backup doesn't restore watchfaces or apps. But majorly the battery life is a real disappointment. I was getting 24 hours if I was lucky and not using it much for workout tracking etc.

Google Maps, Google Keep and Gpay were useful to have on my wrist but didn't outweigh the downers. I'll keep hold of the 4 and hope that software updates improve it.

Pity. I was really looking forward to Galaxy Watch 4.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] crxssi:
The included watch faces are mostly yuck. It is even more annoying that they are not removable (able to delete them).

I was finally able to get something I like through WatchMaker. But I had to edit/customize an existing face. And with WatchMaker, you can make any area launch any app, which is handy.
[HTC Excalibur] acropilot:
hi guys, i already attempted to solve my problem by asking in some topics here, but it's like nobody reads my post...

I've downloaded the 6.1 rom update, and wow, thats a beauty, but i have a quite unknown problem with it, i'm using an azerty keyboard version of the excalibur, quite rare in the excalibur world, and, like you will probably gues, the keyboard is typing qwerty, and not azerty...

I looked at keyboard mapping, but thats al for qwerty keyboards, so im nowhere...

sorry for my English it probably sucks cuz i'm just a belgian student :D

cheers, and thanks!

I will try to look for a fix for this and get back to you as soon as I can. And for your english its okay, I understood what you are looking for.
[HTC Excalibur] pfunkside:
In the sticky for remapping that you also posted in it says in post #22 that there is a zip file of cabs files for different layouts for different regions. I don't know if they are azerty, but you could start there. If not then in post #27 you could try flashing back to your old original Rom and look for those files and copy or safe them then flash back. Otherwise I would say no 6.1 :)
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
You may find the person who altered the xT9 to Portugueses may be able to help? Worth a PM.
[HTC Excalibur] acropilot:
hey jdoggraz thanks allot man, finally someone who try's to help me!

@pfunkside, i tested those files already, and they didn't work, and about turning back to 6.0: no way! :D i just like 6.1

@stylez, yeah, maybe, but thats a qwerty keyboard, and with portugueses letters, so it probably won't work... :(

But, thanks allot so far guys!
[HTC Excalibur] gospeed.racer:
if nothing else works, couldnt you just edit the keymap?
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Thats why i said about the person who edited to Portugueses as you would just have to edit everything to azerty :)
[HTC Excalibur] acropilot:
it's possible, but i'm a real noob with that, and it's hard to understand how to do it, becaus i'm not english speaking, that's why i'm asking for someone who can do that for me, that should be wonderfull, and help others with the azerty problem.

best regards, Samuel.
