Your best bet is to use the public beta and do the update OTA:

Android Beta Program

Android Beta Program allows you to enroll your Android device for beta releases.

the phone wont boot up so how do i get the public beta and what way do i flash it? is the public beta availoable for adb sideload or how do i install it considering the phone wont boot up?

Follow the instructions and cross your fingers.

You may need to factory reset from the recovery.

As long as you can get to the recovery, you have a shot.

Beta 3 has been very stable for me.

I'm having the same issue! My cell service stopped working today and I decided to try restarting it and now it just hangs at the G. I've tried applying the OTA update but it still hangs. Is there away to mount the user partition so I can back my stuff up before trying a factory restore?

Hi, I have a custom ROM on my A50 (Fresh Rom) but I want to reinstall a ROM that has working Knox (vanilla if necessary). Can someone point me to the right direction please? I need that to be able to access some company resources... :(
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] ShaDisNX255:
I don't think you'll get a working Knox, on most Samsung phones once you trip Knox you can never recover it unless you change the motherboard.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] Mysteriouslog6:
On most if not all Samsung devices (My Samsung S5 has this so I doubt the A50 won't) once knox is tripped (Rooted) an electric FUSE is blown , once blown it can never EVER be "unblown" unless you replace the entire motherboard as the FUSE is most of the time inside the SOC itself.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Yeah you're boned... but don't piss where you drink.

Best solution is to use a dedicated company phone. 100% tax write off too.

I hate Knox.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Tonnyy24:
Hello, I have a quest regarding my XZ Premium and Youtube playback @ Vanced/Smartyoutube next. I started noticing lately that my phone ( running on Android 9 stock, if that matters ), can't play HDR content using the VP9 codec, it maxes out at 1440p60fps no HDR in HDR enabled clips ( like

) or 4k30fps in standard 4k clips. With no VP9 codec disabled, therefore most probably AVC enabled, I can play up to 1080p60fps HDR videos but they stutters like hell. Is this normal ? Shouldn't this phone be able to run Youtube HDR content without many issues ? Or atleast 4k60fps clips ? My cheap Android 9 TV-Box can play 4k60fpsHDR Youtube videos without any issues, for example...
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] svetius:
Make sure you are manually choosing 4K/60/HDR from the quality menu in YouTube. It should work.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Tonnyy24:
I am...doesn't work. Either there is no HDR option with VP9 enabled, or I can select 1080p60fpsHDR at most but with heavy stuttering ( with VP9 disabled ).
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] simpsonr:
I've got an S20 and the status bar text size is so small. Is there any way to make that bigger? I've tried all the standard stuff like "screen zoom" and "font size". Neither has any impact on making that status bar text bigger. I'm on Verizon so no root.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] svetius:
Did you try the font size setting? Another idea is to more precisely control the DPI through developer tools.

1. Enable dev tools but tapping multiple times on Build number in About

2. Scroll down to "smallest width" and make the number smaller.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] blackhawk:
There's a thread/solution about this in the Note 10+ forum I believe.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] simpsonr:
I've tried "font size"... No change.

Tried "minimum width" in dev options. Went from 360 to 320. No change. Everything else got bigger but not the status bar text/icons.

I did find this work-around but it's only temporary. If you reboot the phone any time after doing those steps, the status bar is reset back to the original size, so you have to run through all the steps again. Rinse, repeat.

Step by step:-

1) Go to "Developer Options"

2) Go to "Simulate display with cutout"

3) Choose "waterfall cutout"

4) You will see the screen looks narrow with "waterfall cutout" but the icon on status bar become bigger. Under "Minimum Width", you should see it auto adjusted to 279 dp.

5) Reboot your phone.

6) Then go back to "Simulate display with cutout".

7) Change to "Default"
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] simpsonr:
Another note about the above 7 steps. Once that is done and working, you can set the minimum width to say 320 dpi and the status bar text and icons get even bigger. Also, if you then go into the "settings -> display -> screen zoom" setting, you can adjust the slider bar and make bigger or smaller the status bar text/icons. Pretty darn cool. But all that only lasts until you reboot the phone, then it all goes back to original size and you have to go through the same 7 steps above.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] blackhawk:
Well when playing with resolution in Developer options be careful what you punch in... or you may learn what some have learned here the hard way.

Why you want white icons "burning in" your AMOLED display is beyond me. I did everything to get rid of them. The pull down display is all I need and a few 3rd party apps.

Hi Everyone.

As a recent tytn user I can say that I am LOVING the Kaiser but there is one drawback with windows 6.1. It is a shame that they could not make the email client better or at least closer to that of the Blackberry. As an email power user I find the built in email to windows very annoying and doesn't display enough at a glance. Does anyone have a better solution for email to recommend? What is everyone using?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phaleg:
Hi everybody,

my Poco F1 is coming to its end due to very problematic charging, probably related to falling + water damages and I am considering to buy a budget rugged phone to avoid the same experience.

(I am open to suggestion if you consider is better to take a normal or waterproof one and take a case to make it ip68/9)

I used to have for a short while, the Ulefone Armor X8 and experienced good, except that I could not even get to root it. The process bricked it at the point that it could not charge anymore and I sent it back to Amazon.

So before considering to take it again and keep it fully stock, I would like to ask if you can advice other budget rugged phones that have a at least a basic support for rooting and eventually modding.

Thanks

[Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers] Mohamedkam000:
Hello everyone,

I have a Galaxy A70 on latest May 2021 One UI 3.1 update, phone was working fine till this morning, when I tried to manually update some system apps.

I downloaded Device Services latest release from apkmirror, once I installed it, the device showed a "Phone Locked" screen, with IMEI on the next line, followed by:

"This phone can't be used without authorisation"

WiFi was connected for a few hours, I can receive phone calls, even Whatsapp calls, Google Assistant & Bixby are working fine, everything is cool except the fact that I can't bypass this lock screen.

I can use ADB, my bootloader is still locked, my phone has never been modified. I don't want to lose internal data by doing a factory reset.

Any help would be marvelous. Thanks.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] mehmehmeh:
This has been happening to both me and my brother's phones for a while. my phone has dcd3.20 and radio rom 3.42.50 My brother's phone is dcd 3.16 with one of the earlier gps enabled radios. we use whatever was the stock dialer for those kitchens. We are both on sprint. yes we should update to the newest rom/radio.

say I wanted to dial a contact named Miranda, so I push the green phone button, dial 6(m,n,o) ,4 (g, h, i) on the keypad and that narrows it down to 1 contact named miranda in this case, I push the green phone button and my phone will make a call. and then when the other party picks up I find out that I called the wrong number.

I swear this morning I even watched the status and it said, "dialing miranda" and showed her number, but when I connected I found out I had the wrong number and then looked at the call status and it displayed someone else's number (this time a number that is not in my contact list, does not contain the numbers 64, and probably not in my last 10 calls)

There have been other cases where dialing the first two or three letters of a contact's name narrows the contact list to a few contacts, then I might use the up or down on the nav button to select the right one and then push the green phone button to dial. And then my phone will call the wrong person, sometimes it calls someone that was not on the narrowed down contact list.

has anyone else had this problem?
[Mogul, XV6800 General] robjective:
This happens to my phone (DCD 3.20) and my bosses phone (DCD3.25) occasionally. I would say for me, it happens my 1 out of 50 times. It will be when I dial a number I have never dialed before--I will type in the complete number, hit send, and then the phone will dial something close to the number from my contacts.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] Rosso81:
I also have this problem as well with 3.2.6

I was trying to dial a pizza and it had the first 6 digits the same as a AC company I called the same day. I could not get it to dial the right number - even though like you say, it says it is. In the end had to use a friends phone. Only time it has happened to me though.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] scotcha12345:
same

I often experience the same problem.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] sandiegodude:
The way around it is to press the name of the person you want to dial before pressing the green dial button.

I.E. click on the name in the list- EVEN THOUGH it is already highlighted.

works for me.

Still a pain in the ass though.

I believe it has to do with the touch dial skin and smart dialing.

I have the same error on the stock sprint rom with the touch dialer skin installed.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] blancmik:
I have also had this isue on multiple versions of DCD roms... not sure if the VZW rom had the issue was I was not on long enought to find out. I ended up calling my bosses cell one night at 1 am.... woops!
[Mogul, XV6800 General] froader:
I have also had this problem as long as i can remember.

Here is an example to add to the list.

try to dial *72

you cannot simply just dial that.

It will dial the next closest number.

It will only work if I disable smartdial.

Go figure.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] isdnmatt:
Same here. I will type the first two digits on someones name and number and it will only dial those digits even though I selected the name from the list before pushing call.

Clicking on the name just works some of the time. I thought I was going crazy...
[Mogul, XV6800 General] Flagmax:
So is this a random problem or can it be reproduced? Any of you cooked a DCD rom with the mogul dialer and noticed the same problem?

I hope we can figure out if this is a problem with the dialer or Smart dial itself?
[Mogul, XV6800 General] mehmehmeh:
I always get a 10 digit number dialed (from 2-3 digits pressed for smart dialer) , whether or not it is the number I want dialed is another issue.

don't know if there is a way to reproduce it, since it happens only occasionally.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] zoomy942:
this has been happeneing to all my 6900 users and its driving them/me nuts.

anyone know why its doing this or what a solution mght be?
[Mogul, XV6800 General] jmorisey:
Dito...

I had the same problem yesterday when trying to get to the EPST screen. The first time I dialed ##778# and realized that I didn't need the ending #. When I put in JUST ##778, it would still try to dial the one I already dialed. I had to delete it from my recent list to get into the menu.

Jon
[Mogul, XV6800 General] mehmehmeh:
kept happening over and over the other day again when trying to call miranda from my phone by using the smart dial keypad 6-4. noticed it is dialing 612-599-xxxx instead of her contact number. 612-599-xxxx is the first number that pops up when i just push 6, pushing 4 narrows it down to miranda in my contacts but the phone still dials the first choice for only pushing 6.

so it seems like the smart dialer display is a step ahead of the dialer?

Hi Guys!~

Hope all is well !!

... recently I came across my rooted android 11 Pixel 3XL got a screen flashes with bright home screen background during the screen turning off and entering ambient display mode.

I try my best to find a solution but haven't found one yet.

I have tried to reflash to stock, also doesn't fix the problems.

... the only solution I found at this moment is to get android 12 beta which the transition animation from turning off the screen to the wake up of ambient display is totally different and I still prefer to stay with rooted android 11.View attachment 5371239

[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
If you tried multiple roms especially the stock* one unless it's something you loaded after the flash, it's got to be hardware related. It's possible the non stock rom blew out some hardware too.

Try setting brightness to manual.

A rework around may be the only viable solution.

You ever wonder what happens when one or two of the billions of semiconductor junctions/resistors/caps fails in the chipset or display? You might be looking at an example😕

It could be a loose connection, or a faulty ribbon cable/connector, a subassembly maybe even battery (if so there be more symptoms).

Wait for the battery to drain completely. How many days to wait depends upon the battery charge at the time it went off. It took 2 days for me at 45% battery last seen. To check battery status connect to computer and see any signal computer gives, if no response connect to the charger (preferably powerbank, as it charges slow, not fast charging). If battery symbol appears relax and just wait, it will automatically starts after few seconds, no need to press any buttons. If no battery charging signal wait for more time still battery drains completely, and repeat the process.
