[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MidoPL:
A few years ago was an app called "GameBench" that thanks to power of USB debugging was able to measure FPS in games without root. But at some point they changed their business model and now only companies and organisations can use their app.

Then a competitor arose - PerfDog. Looks even better, more options, nice UI, wi-fi usb debugging support and even excel export:

Well, guess what: recently they decided to monetize their service and target businesses as well. Although they don't say "NO!" to ordinary people, their prices surely do:

What's your phone's brand / model?
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] Altaryan:
Hi ! I'm looking for a s10e SM-G9700 (HK version), for Europe. From what i've heard it's the best non-Exynos version to have.

However, I can't find any still selling. What i found though are a lot of G970U1 (US version unlocked).

Will I have any trouble by using one of these (I mean, impossible to access some essential feature like my local Play Store, impossible to change language, or any other software issues). Can i correct a potentiel issue by flashing with Odin a new firmware/something else ?

I don't really care about rooting (even if this would be nice, but i'm not dreaming).

I've compared the bands available on both of these phones, and i find them very similar, so i guess i shouldn't have an issue on this side.

Thank you very much for your help !

PS: Alternatively, if the Exynos can run better or similar with root/custom rom (I'm mostly worried about battery consumption), that could be a solution

[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] Avarosa:
Hi, I bought a used Galaxy S20 from eBay and everything works fine except benchmarking apps wouldn’t install. Direct APKs don’t work either and the only suggestion I found is to clear Play Store which had no luck. The Galaxy Store works though but they’re mostly outdated or fringe benchmark apps.

Later I found that when I choose Emergency mode in the power off menu, it says “Can’t use Emergency mode on demo phone”. Nowhere else does it mention it’s a demo unit, including boot sequence and demo mode is off in developer options.

Last problem I found while troubleshooting more and found out on another site that the IMEI belongs to a Galaxy J5 Prime from Saudi Arabia... What can I do? Would flashing a firmware help with any of these problems? It’s a Canadian SM-G981W model and I would prefer to flash a US firmware without losing any data if it’s possible. Recovery mode+download mode both work and I don’t think the phone has been rooted as Knox doesn’t seem to be tripped. But I thought that you would need to root in order to fake/spoof IMEI?

Here’s a photo of the phone in download mode, I think it’s missing a few things including the OEM lock status.

Is this fishy or help solve the problems as I’m not super tech savvy 😅 Thanks in advance!

Where should I buy them then? Swappa and Gazelle don’t deliver to Canada and traditional retailers are way overpriced. To be fair, the seller is pretty smart as the average Joe would probably never notice these issues as the phone works completely normal otherwise.

[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] moli1984:
Hi All,

I'm wondering that is there any option to change the Model name to P30 Pro?

After that probably I could be Play Protect certified.

GMS and Google installed but Google Pay not working due to the phone not certified.

Other banking apps also not working because rely on googl play protect.

Is there any solution to emulated the Model name or change it? Should I root the phone or can I find some alternative way?

Annoying that I have a great phone but due to some restrictions I can not use it as I want.

Thank you
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] Shymmy:
With Google installed, I can use banking app to pay thru NFC.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] moli1984:
I know, depends on which bank you have. Mine is contracted with Google pay only so no chance. Other also google pay, 3rd working standalone but because of no play protection and not certified not working.

I'm in Hungary and I have tried áll available options.

Wise/Revolut/curve also contracted with Google Pay.

Or looking for Universal app where I can add my card and working the NFC contacless payment feature.

I know Stocard app but it is only available in UK or Germany and can not force the region...

That's why Im looking for other solution...

My problem with iCard that there is no Hungarian currency on it.

I have to change my money (HUF) to EUR then when I pay in Hungary change back to EUR to HUF and I'm afraid I will lose a lot.

This is the only disadvantage with iCard.

That's why I looking for app where I can associate my bank card or account.

[LG V40 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ruaa.pham:
i know it =)))

you should replace v35 with laf_a or laf_b depending on the original rom in slot_a or b

Remember to only replace v35 in 1 slot

When booting the device, just hold the volume up key to enter the unlocked fastboot, in my experience that's it

And to explain why you get bootloop is because...when unlocking in this way, the bootloader of the device is only unlocked in half, only when unlocked via LG's main page can it be fully opened, so when replacing v35 in abl_a_b then some machines will have a bootloader conflict (this one, I don't know the reason :D) and bootloop

3)Unlimited Top sites

5)Extensions icons in url bar ,honestly i think fenix + ublock is really a killer combo so i wanted its icon to be always visible in url bar!

6)Unlimited addons throught your custom collection!

7)Data collection and analitycs disabled by default, no tracking adds or so whatever!

threre are two variant one with high contrast theme and one with a more flatter ui.

I have a n10pro running the stock global 12.5 MIUI software. Whenever I do voice calls with my neice, she tells me my mic keeps cutting out and sometimes I'm very quiet where she can't even hear me. It does tend to start happening after a few minutes.

I have set Snapchat so that it has no battery restrictions and I have also set it to autostart.

Another issue is that sometimes my Snapchat notifications won't play the notification sound when receiving a message or snap.

I'm tempted to try the xiaomi.eu to see if it's any better but I would prefer to stay with stock for now. I usually only start using custom Ron's when my phone starts losing support from the OEM.

Other than this I absolutely love the phone, especially for the price.

edit: Went ahead and flashed xiaomi.eu and it seems to be fine now. And as added bonuses, xiaomi.eu has some nice features that are missing in the global rom, like more AOD settings and double tap to sleep from the homescreen. Very happy with the EU rom so far.
