September update is available for SM-T970 (EUX). Just updated my SM-T970 (XAR) with it without any issue. Magisk and SafetyNet are fine.

@xpdragon: That's nice to know, but I think I'll still wait on Samsung to release the update for XAR US region. I don't really want to flash European firmware on my tab just to get the update, because it would change the CSC code to something that isn't optimal for my location. I've been running the July update ever since the tab was delivered to me, no issues so far, therefore no pressing need to update.

I just saw that on Frija. But after a few months of running Android 12, I've discovered that a few things aren't working as expected. I plan to downgrade back to Android 11 either tonight or early tomorrow morning. Things were working perfectly on 11.

Please help me

I got the s7+ wifi as a gift from a dear one

And unfortunately they are no more

Hence it being their last memory I cannot sell it

But

I DESPERATELY NEED VOLTE IN IT

please help ,me someone

There's got to be a wa I'm sure
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 / S7 Plus Guides, News, & Di] AnonVendetta:
The WiFi only models don't support volte, since they have no mobile data capabilities. Do you have an SM-T970? I used to have that model until I sold it to a friend, it's perfect for him because he only needs to use it on home WiFi, and he has no need to make calls/texts on it.

I still have a Tab S7+, but it's the SM-T976N Korean variant, which supports wifi, 4g, and 5g. I currently have a T-Mobile sim card in it, all is working great. However, I'm pretty sure it doesn't support volte.

If you really don't want to keep it, I'm pretty sure you could sell it on eBay for 300-400 $, depending on its' condition. I bought my Tab S7+ 5g on eBay, new in factory sealed box, for 999$. I feel like it was a good deal, I'm very happy with it. The main thing for me is that it's mobile data capable, a big advantage over my WiFi only model.

I was a HTC Touch Cruise (Polaris) user and I was very satisfied with the excellent audio quality and using it as a perfect MP3 player.

Now I have a TouchPro. Everything is fine but the audio part is so poor ! No more Bass Booster, Medium and 3D booster.

I know I can change the sound using the equalizer but what I'm looking for is the same settings that where available in Polaris : booster and equalizer (please see screenshoot in this post)

I tried WOW but it does not work (no change and cannot change volume anymore).

So do you think it will be possible to take the audio booster driver from Polaris and port it to TouchPro ? Is this something realist or does te Polaris has a specific audio hardware allowing playing with Bass, Medium and 3D parameters ?

It would be a really nice thing to be able to use this "Audio Booster" as I found that my Polaris had even a better sound that my wife's iPod :)

Many thanks for your advice.

[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] Bogazicili90:
Buddies, please urgent help. I flashed V12.5.1.0.RJKMIXM without problem and it was working. I had lost twrp and magisk and thought it won't be a problem to flash them back. By a silly mind I flashed twrp and magisk 21.4.zip again. Now The phone doesn't boot and bootloop after MIUI screen. I have very important data on my phone and I can't see data partition. From twrp, When I click select storage, internal Storage (0.00 MB) seems 0 MB. I never clicked on wipe data option after flashing magisk. I only wiped dalvik and cache.

How can I save my data? It seems there is no fastboot rom to flash. I am downloading recovery ROM again to give it a try. I hope it saves me. Please give me suggestions if you have any.

thanks beforehand... :'(
[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] NOSS8:
Which Twrp did you use?

if you flash a fastboot rom your data is lost.
[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] Bogazicili90:
I used this: recovery-TWRP-3.4.2B-1206-REDMI_K30PRO-CN-wzsx150

I was on Android 10 and MIUI 12.0.4 ROM before flashing MIUI 12.5.1

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS I FIXED IT I'M SO HAPPY!!! THANK YOU FOR YOUR RESPONSE.!!!

I reflashed recovery ROM and the phone booted normally thanks to Allah.

What should I do to get TWRP and Magisk Root back again? Or is it possible at that moment?

Do a backup

flash Twrp and reboot Twrp then flash Magisk.(delete all lockscreen security before)

[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] NOSS8:
I have been using Xiaomi EU rom for a long time and have never had this problem which can be due to Twrp and / or forgetting to format the data.

Yes maybe I faced the issue by my mistake... By the way I removed all screen locks and then flashed twrp and rebooted twrp again. But I can't see internal storage again after rebooting twrp. I think There is a problem with twrp on Android 11.
[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] NOSS8:
V12.5.1.0.RJKMIXM is an beta stable.

Maybe flashed the last fastboot rom(V12.2.6.0.RJKMIXM) with Miflash to restore the phone correctly and then the V12.5.1.0.RJKMIXM.

Yes as you said all twrp versions are the same. It is due to A11. I will try to root the device with boot.img.

I need root for backing up apps with swift backup app. I also need it for some apps.

I realized that I can see internal storage data without formatting the phone. I just changed TWRP from ManuelBlanco's to LR Team's via fastboot and the internal storage became visible. I think this is easier than formatting the whole phone every time changing ROM.

However Magisk pathched boot.img doesn't work. Phone bootloops with that boot. I reflashed original boot.img I don't know why Magisk doesn't work properly...

[Sony Xperia 1 III] gmfeld:
A few hands-on reviews are out. The consensus is decidedly mediocre. Disappointingly so.

Some common themes: battery life not great, device runs hot, and surprising to me, the camera in basic auto mode is really not that great. Causing me to rethink my pre-order.

[Sony Xperia 1 III] gmfeld:
Another review. More detailed, and equally underwhelming.

Sony Xperia 1 III review

The Xperia 1 III launches with an asking price of $1300/€1300, and even if that includes a pair of noise-canceling headphones in most regions, the number...

www.gsmarena.com
[Sony Xperia 1 III] elwuero:
count me in too on questioning my pre order. not sure what i'm going to do but leaning towards cancelling.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] gmfeld:
Last review I will post as they are all consistent:

My requirements are a headphone jack and micro SD storage. So I'm stuck as no other premium phone offers both. My only other option is a Moto G, I'm not inclined to move that far down the performance ladder.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] -SKYLINE-:
The reviews got me thinking whether the Xperia 5 III may be a better choice. In principle, the screen should be less demanding on the same sized battery... Other downside is the lack of ToF sensor which I'm still not sure how much it downgrades the image quality of the otherwise same camera setup.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] elwuero:
I mainly want this as my pocket camera. I find the cnet review as promising. He was impressed by the cameras, all of them. With any smartphone camera, imo you should only use the telephoto cameras outdoors in good light. He got some nice images with all 4 focal lengths of the camera. I'm now confident I can get some nice photos with the telephoto lenses, especially when using the pro camera app and choosing ISO and shutter speed. as far as the cnet review he disliked the price and the battery life. But he had a pre production unit and battery life is the last thing addressed usually with new software and devices. I'm kind of excited again.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] gmfeld:
I think all the reviews I read, including this most recent one from Android Authority, are critical of the camera in low light settings. Another issue for me as I like to get a photo or two at concerts.

Sony Xperia 1 III review: Elegant, exhilarating, expensive

Sony's flagship smartphone packs some of the best hardware around, but should you buy it? Find out in this Sony Xperia 1 III review.

www.androidauthority.com
[Sony Xperia 1 III] elwuero:
I haven't cancelled my pre order (yet). i can live with only using the main camera in low light. at f1.7 the photos should be good and the reviews so far seem to support that.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] elwuero:
from this review all i can say is as long as you know how to use the camera, all photos should look good. on my xperia 1 ii i would almost always shoot in program mode and would just keep the iso at 100 and occasionally raise it to 320. in this review he seems to be doing the same thing. love the histogram on screen, so helpful.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] chetly968:
I used a 1 Ii for quite some time and was able to get great pictures in program mode by just fiddling with the exposure compensation while looking at the histogram. Takes like 5 seconds and you've got a great picture. I guessing the 3 will take very similar pictures.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] WarVic:
You can always play with it for a few days and re-sell it for the same price as an "open box" product. It will certainly work if you live in the country where Sony doesn't sell phones officially and you have to import your device.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] WarVic:
I bought LG V60 ThinQ for around $350 (4 times cheaper than Xperia!) for exactly the same reasons. Yes, it doesn't look as sexy as Xperia 1 III but it has plenty of power (more than I actually need), great battery life, best in business sound, not getting hot as hell etc.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] WarVic:
It's all theory. To get any good night shot on Xperia 1 III you'll have to use stand and bluetooth shutter button. I used to had Xperia 1 II / 5 II and taking night photos with Xperia handheld was impossible. Don't think that Xperia 1 III is different.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] WarVic:
Too much effort for $1300 smartphone to my opinion.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] elwuero:
Not a complete review but I found this video entertaining.

btw, I decided to not cancel my pre order. B&H says I will have 30 days to return. I expect it will be my main camera/phone for at least a year.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] glovesave:
Waiting on my pre order to arrive soon.

I really like my 1II and look foresees to the III. The only other phone that gets me excited is the Pixel 6 (if it doesn't have a curved screen)

Can't ever go Chinese as I need updates decently on schedule. Samsung has dropped prices a bit but no sd card and the same cameras and worse screen...

Their ultra is too heavy for comfortable one hand usage
[Sony Xperia 1 III] gmfeld:
I bailed on the Experia and cancelled my order with B&H. Going to get the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra. No headphone jack and no sd storage slot, but I couldn't get comfortable with the Experia reviews I was reading, particularly the camera.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] glovesave:
I had the ultra also. Traded it in while it was still worth a lot. The weight and one handed use was not my favorite and its hard to get a glass screen protector that works with the ultrasonic finger print reader. It didn't have enough memory and with no sd card I was forced to stream music.

But it takes great pics.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] WarVic:
The same. Really kept my finger on pre-order button for a week but after numerous rather underwhelming camera performance reviews decided to buy nearly 3 times cheaper Galaxy S21.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] elwuero:
I don’t have a link here but GSMArena was very critical of the camera on the 1 iii but the same camera sans the 3d laser got a good positive review for the 5 iii. It has the same camera module. They liked the 2.9/4.4 zoom camera images. Maybe the software has been tweaked since they reviewed the 1 iii.

I think I like Sony's focus on traditional photography and not what Samsung, Apple, Google and others do with computational photography. I am comparing my use of the 1 ii and a 12 pro max, s21 ultra and a vivo x60 pro+. Sony seems to have more natural colors and images. The others might have less noise on some images and better night photos but I can work around that with RAW and either LR or PS.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] elwuero:
don’t base your decision whether or not to buy this phone on any old reviews including all of those linked in this thread. the reviews are misleading and wrong, especially as they relate to the cameras.

i plan to post a review here but I've only had the phone for a day so far. most of the reviews were very critical of the cameras in low light. when i turned on the phone yesterday for the first time, there was a "large" firmware update. i say large because it took a while to download and install. i haven't had a chance to go out and test the camera system yet but i noticed right away that in low light the camera screen pops up automatically the words "night mode". maybe this was included in the update, however most reviews dinged the phone for not having a night mode. hopefully i have time this weekend to shoot some photos and will share here.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Clae:
Sounds good, I'll be look at it when you post.

Small question - is there a swipe down on the fingerprint sensor to open notifications gesture in the settings? This is one of the small advantages of physical fingerprint sensors rather than under-screen ones.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] brockyneo:
Wait there is a nigh mode on the xerpia 1 iii?

Darn where is my update lol
[Sony Xperia 1 III] murrayalex:
Plenty of good reviews around. I'm very happy with mine so far, super fast, good battery life, great screen, the 120mhz refresh is lovely, the camera is good too. Much better than the I II in my opinion.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] elwuero:
i looked through the settings and didn’t find any way to enable any gestures for the fingerprint sensor.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] ChrisFPS:
I opted for using the "Side sense" slide-down gesture to accomplish the same thing.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] elwuero:
that's a great idea! im gonna set mine up the same. i do use the double tap but don’t use the slide gesture
[Sony Xperia 1 III] decomposed:
Can someone please help me and explain how to get good night pics with mark 3?

My pocs are blurry, sometimes even during the day. I thought that if it has so fast auto focus it will always be sharp. But is not for me :(

Maybe I am doing something wrong?

Can you pass me the mode and settings I should use for it or a video tutorial?

Dedicated night mode is really needed for mark 3. What is sony doing now? Reviewing the code and thinking which functionality or app they can remove???
[Sony Xperia 1 III] elwuero:
well i’ll try to help. the 1 iii does have a night mode. fast auto focus only means the camera can lock onto a subject quickly, but that’s all it means. to get a sharp shot, that won’t particularly help. that’s for any camera, even an a1 sony’s most expensive camera.

for a low light shot, indoors or at night, in my opinion, you should only use the 1.0 lens. because it has the largest aperture at f/1.7. if you open the camera app and choose Basic, in low light you’ll notice right after you fully press the shutter button, a circle timer will appear on the screen. you need to hold the camera/phone still without moving it until the circle disappears. this usually takes around 3 seconds. if you move the camera/phone at all, even slightly before the timer completes, your photo will be blurry. this happens on any high end smartphone camera. even the iphone known for great night shots, requires you to hold the phone still for several seconds after pressing the shutter. i can’t share the pic if i want to remain married, but last night my wife was sleeping on the couch and there was a nice soft light on her face, but the room was dark. i just opened the app to Basic, took a shot and held it in place until the timer completed and the photo is amazing. really clear and sharp.

in the daytime, i suggest using manual mode. this way you can set the shutter speed. the general rule is you should choose a shutter speed of 3 times the focal length of the camera if you are shooting a still subject. so say you are shooting with the 4.4 camera. that’s 105mm effectively. so i choose at least 1/300 and adjust the iso accordingly to compensate. but if you are shooting action or a person, then you need even faster.

its esay on a phone because you have one less thing to worry about since you can’t adjust the aperture. learn how to nail exposure. its really simple and easy. and with the 1 iii and the ability to have a histogram on the screen, even easier. i learned all about exposure from a book, Understanding Exposure by Bryan Peterson years ago. im sure you can learn today on youtube.

the camera on the 1 iii is amazing. it does have a dedicated night mode, it does macro and scene recognition. and if you know how to dial in the settings a great manual mode.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] decomposed:
Thank you. I had the problem with macro mode too when I wanted to get macro and be able to read on a picture all those details from the charger. These are very small letters.

It turned out the details were very difficult to see and blurry when I was holding the charger on a white table. When I moved it to gry sofa it was easier to capture the letters without blur. Not sure why. All in basic mode and main camera. Maybe it is not the best mode for macros?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] elwuero:
maybe with your lighting and the white background the camera had some difficulties getting focus. the white was probably too bright and didn’t provide enough contrast. that was smart to change to a darker background. honestly i think the main camera is going to give the best results for any mode. the 1 iii might not be perfect but imho it comes very close.

Where do I start? I want to take an old "arnubox" M10 and read the info on the chip (S905) Baby Meson, change the embedded software, and then rewrite the new code to the chip.

Sorry for the late reply but it was service.d and post-fs-data.d folder. I removed the scripts in them, you can back them up if needed. Starcms said it was substranium magisk mod that caused issues as another possible culprit.
