MMS doesn't work, plain simple.

It's an issue that only affects Australian carriers.

I found other Australian users who posted this issue on Xiaomi EU but I was not able to participate in the discussion as the forum didn't allow me to create an account.

There is no option to contact anyone from the forum, both Xiaomi and Poco didn't answer my e-mails and messages on their Facebook pages, scammer companies for sure.

So this is my reviews for this specific topic, if you're in Australia, do NOT waste your money and time with this phone and brands!

I have LG v50 second Sim card not working help me modèle V500N
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Try clearing sim toolkit data, a network reset and clearing the system cache.

Are the sim cards good? Sim cards can be damaged by ESD.

Handle them like a stick of ram and you won't see them fail. Partial failures can be hard to diagnose, inconvenient and little terrors.

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Demolition49:
I have already tried a OnePlus 8 pro protector, but that protector is just ever so slightly too tall and not wide enough. It is 6.78" after all...

Does anybody have any ideas on what I can try next, so we can find a solution to this screen protector situation... I like the look of curved, but I absolutely hate the hassle it causes with screen protectors.

Does anybody have any suggestions... I'm willing to buy and try until we find one that works.

WHY put a protector over Gorilla Glass Victus?

I gave up screen protectors!

Someone on Reddit said they were going to try this one but they have not reported back.

Spigen Tempered Glass Screen Protector [Glas.tR Platinum] designed for Galaxy Note 20 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08CZ74B8...abc_G9XWKY61TGN0326V3JBW?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] 18.4009:
Agreed 100%.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Demolition49:
Because some of us like to use a protector, and the glass will eventually scratch... Especially the oleophobic coating. If you don't have anything constructive to add, then why bother. Go and be happy with your phone without a protector....
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Demolition49:
My only concern is it is 2mm wider than the p6 pro... So probably won't fit. But I'll give it a go.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] 18.4009:
Daaang, only discussion we may have is one agreeing with you? heh, dig it. CHECK
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] 18.4009:
Bailed out on protectors back in the Oneplus 7T days and rapidly realized I was wasting my time with a protector. Never used one and my 8T and zero scratches over the last year. Hope the tech only gets better, so I for one see no reason for it. But.. This is an opinion.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Digital DJ:
Exactly! I'm tempted with every phone to add a screen protector but Gorilla Glass Victus is also said to surpass Gorilla Glass 6 in terms of durability. Corning states that Victus is two times more scratch-resistant than Gorilla Glass 6 and up to four times scratch-resistant than competitors.

I REALLY AM LOOKING FOR A GLASS SCREEN PROTECTOR, I PREFER THEM. SO WOULD YOU PLEASE STOP INTERUPTING THE THREAD WITH YOUR PREFERENCES.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] ZooBaAr:
I have 2 on the way, Super sheildz glass and a basic tpu from amazin. Considering how scratched even the glass protectors get, and I do not kick my phones around, I want to be able to sell it mint and You cannot do that if it doesn't have a case and screen on it from day one.

I get top buck for my phones because of that. Your MMV but it's a cheap investment. IntelliGlass has been sold and that was my fave so no screens from them and I'll be damned if I'll pay 40$ for one from Spigen even if it's the best, ill wait till it's half off.

There will be more entries into the market but it's limited right now. I'll post back on how it goes.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] MrBelter:
There seems to be a problem with the fingerprint reader not working when a glass screen protector is fitted, the one i fitted to my Pro was absolutely rubbish and pinged off so i didnt get to see the problem but the Spigen on i put on my wifes 6 means her fingerprint scanner doesn't work correctly now.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] goddammit:
This. I don't see any scratches on my 2 year old 4 XL. Screen protectors were a pain in the ass to apply in the old days when the screens were flat. But now, not only the screen is curved as fuᴄk, but there's also that on-screen fingerprint reader that is already not great. Over my dead body am I dealing with the nightmare that would be a screen protector on this thing.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Digital DJ:
I get it bro... Is using the finger print unlock important to you? Every glass protector I've seen (on Amazon) the title either says "doesn't support finger print reader" or the reviews say that. Since your phone already has glass screen (please don't tell at me for saying that 🥺🥺🥺) would you consider one of those plastic screen protectors? That's what I'm thinking about getting. Yes I'm answering your question.

Also you spelled interrupting wrong. You forgot the second R. 😀

I have yet to get my phone, but the [3Pack] GOBUKEE Google 6 Pro tempered glass screen protector is curved in the edges.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Digital DJ:
That's cool but does it support finger print reader?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] mkhcb:
I'll let you know in 1 week. Google shipped my phone via snail Express.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] fards:
My 6 pro is due any minute, so I spent a fruitless few hours yesterday trying to get a few different protectors ordered to test out.

When I do get some I'll feedback on here.

But I suspect having had issues with glass protectors on curved screens I'll stick with tpu ones. On the mi10 they work a treat, modern ones are vastly better than the old tpu ones, easy to apply and cheap enough to be replaced every couple of months.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Digital DJ:
If I decide to get a screen protector at all I will likely get the tpu version. I've had issues with curved glass screen protectors as well. But my biggest issue that I've been reading with the glass is people not being able to correctly use the fingerprint reader. I'm sure I'm not the only one who wishes the fingerprint reader was on the back of the phone like some of the older models. I'm not quite sure why they went to the front screen fingerprint reader. But I'm not here to start a new topic LOL.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
In a dream world, Google would have given us both the backside fingerprint reader AND an improved, sized down Soli-Faceunlock version for ease of use.

Well, in a dream world.

So, jea, you are not alone. Not a big fan of an in display one.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Digital DJ:
Actually those are all really great ideas. You should go work for Google design team 🤣🤣.

I still have my Google pixel 4 XL and I'm highly considering keeping it instead of trading it in. My wife is still rocking the Google pixel 4. Neither one of us ever had a face unlock issue that wasn't our own fault meaning wearing a face diaper or possibly really big sunglasses.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
I also come from a P4 XL and for a moment I was actually tempted to keep it (I mean I am still in the return window, but...) the P6 Pro just offers too much to pass.

The battery is easily 30% better, the tele zoom is ridiculously good, I finally have an ultrawide, plus a decent wideangle on the frontcam again (like my older Pixel 3), not to mention bigger storage and double the RAM, plus I love the faster screen plus many of the software features are software-locked to the P6, and certainly too good to pass. It's also highly possible that new features will be software-locked because of "muh Tensor good good" by Google.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] wekebu:
I currently am using a Note 20 Ultra. I didn't put a protector on it because of it having Victus glass and a curved screen. I have 2 scratches. I'm careful with my phones, only ever in left front pocket, nothing else in that pocket.

My new 6 Pro is getting a screen protector. I have one on order.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] wekebu:
Which one was rubbish? If like to avoid it.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] iboj007:
Just to add here I tried the CoverOn TGSP and it doesn't work with the fingerprint reader.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Voyager2008:
Because the day I got my protector I drove up my hill, phone slides down between the seats and instant slight scratch you can see if you hold it slightly towards a light...
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] iboj007:
Ok there's actually hope:

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Ultimoose:
Like others have said and found out glass is pretty problematical right now based on all reports. I would recommend any of a billion (slight exaggeration but you get the point) TPU covers at the moment on amazon, ebay, aliexpress etc until something solid comes out.

That rectangle under UV is certainly interesting.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] gettinwicked:
I'm with the OP, I'd like a glass screen protector, and I'll tell you why. I'm definitely worried about scratches, I like to keep mine in mint not only for myself, but for resale. However, I started using a glass screen protector when I dropped my 4xl about two feet and managed to crack the screen (inorite?). So, I started using the glass ones, and they have saved my 4xl screen from either getting cracked or shattered twice since. The last time was last week while out for a walk when it fell out of my pocket and landed screen down on the pavement. The glass protector was shattered both times, but the screen on the phone was perfectly fine. I'm hardly one to ever drop a phone, at least enough to crack it, but I like it just in case. The time before that it actually cracked cost me $100 to fix ($150 if there hadn't been a ubreakifix in town). So, if one is made that works on the curved screen and the fingerprint reader works, I'm all over it. Definitely watching this thread.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] freebee269:
That spot under uv is interesting. Bad adhesive? Something to do with the battery? Maybe an area for the finger print sensor?

Is this the spots on the screen that most people are having the issue with? And does the same issue happened on the edge of the screen where the spot in the UV is not at?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] ZooBaAr:

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] wilbur-force:
For a TPU stopgap I bought one of these and i can thoroughly recommend. manages the curved edges great and even comes with an applicator/guide. no bubbles at all.

.... and fingerprint reader works great.

Until a tempered glass one comes along I'll stick with this

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Burt Squirtz:
The title says it all. Google decided to use 'Ontrac' as the company to deliver my 6 pro. And as you might expect, it they decided to mark it as delivered.

A few days ago, after i saw my package shipping email, i decided to look up reviews on Ontrac on Reddit and other various forums.

A downright litany/fukkton of people were complaining that Ontrac marked the package as delivered, when they never were. Packages seem to grow legs and disappear with this company. This gave me deep core cringy anxiety once i saw this.

Now....... I'm pissed, because i can't even reach Google, because of the INSANE wait times for calls and online chat. I'm beyond upset, what a complete sh1tshow.

Please request to have another company deliver your pixel. Stay a mile away from Ontrac.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] mccabeross:
has your package been stated as delivered? wasn't clear by your post....
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Burt Squirtz:
Edit: forgot to type that my package was indeed marked off as delivered. But of course it wasn't.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Burt Squirtz:
Of course it was marked off as delivered. Otherwise I wouldn't have bothered to type this.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] 96carboard:
In the modern world of shipping companies dropping and running, its a GREAT idea to put a motion sensitive security camera of some sort to catch the front of your property.

I use some generic high resolution IP cameras and a Zoneminder server.

If there is ever a claim that a package was delivered, you just need to find the footage applicable for the time they claim it was delivered. If none exists, then they obviously didn't deliver.

I've caught all kinds of weird stuff, like a delivery ape literally THROWING a package marked "fragile". Also a neighbor from across the street trying to sneak a couple of extra bags onto my driveway, and after I had a little chat with him, sneaking it onto OTHER people's driveways.

Note: it was an old guy, and I actually told him that it was OK, just give me a call first so I know its him and not someone from the other end of town throwing out body parts :ROFLMAO:
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Norma Stitz:
Similar situation with Best Buy. Had I known, I would have done in store pickup. Now mine is "an event has delayed your delivery". I guess on the plus side, it hasn't officially been stolen yet.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Burt Squirtz:
OMG. Still nothing on my stolen/vanished p6p. I had to order one off eBay, and on top of that miraculously, an hour later found a 256 stormy black at best buy that will be delivered on the 3rd! I got completely scalped on the eBay pixel.

I have learned a valuable lesson. Don't get phones shipped to your house guys.

1) Always get doorbell camera security system for your package delivery doors.

2). Try everything in your power to get packages routed to 'in package store pickup', and DO NOT use sketch package delivery companies like OnTrac!
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pootler:
HI,

I inherited this phone. ( D6503 )

Fixed a few hardware problems, now looking at software improvements.

I have unlocked the bootloader , but for the life of me I cannot get a recovery on this phone??

I have previoiusly done flashing on nokia, motorola and Nexus, but I am having no luck with this sony :)

I am able to connect using ADB, and can get to fastboot, but it stops there.

Issuing '' fastboot boot twrp.img'' ( to try and boot temporarily to twrp ) gives me a blank screen.

issuing ''fastboot flash recovery twrp.img'' does the same.

I cannot get a bootloader screen at all, even using the key combinations.

I cannot boot any recovery at all.

Is there someone here who can put me out of my misery :)

I am not looking to perform anything fancy, I just want to flash the latest lineage to see how it performs

Many Thanks in advance.

pootler.

Can anybody help?-------please :-)
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pootler:

I then installed NDR utils, to reboot to recovery - it still reboots to main system??

Anyone have any first hand recommendations for a set up to transfer from the P6P directly to a micro SD? It's not something I've ever needed before so I'm a total babe in the woods regarding what would be best for this.

I plan on trying to use the phone to record a lot of footage away from any PC and would like to dump it to SD cards as I go to have a backup copy. I have a lot of 128gb microSD cards I use in my GoPros and drone.

Strong preference on "it just works" and is durable and not prone to user issues. It'll be attached to the phone and bouncing around in a running vest.

I'll be doing this during ultra marathons and will have no access to a PC for up to 30 hours (and some day up to 112 hours I hope as I want to try the Tahoe 200 or Big Foot 240) at a time. And it would help that it's braindead simple to do as toward the end of a race my mental acuity is a "tiny" bit less than it is sitting at my desk at home.

Anyway, my appreciation in advance for your time and guidance.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Digital DJ:
Just a thought here, and I'm not even sure it would work. But could you use your USB C to USB adapter and simply add maybe a flash drive? I'm not sure if you could map it to record directly to it though, but maybe you could transfer all your recordings?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I got a USB-C multi-port dongle for free off of Amazon years ago, reimbursed in exchange for an honest review. Has 2x USB-A 3.x, one full-size HDMI, and full-size and Micro SD slots. The particular one I got isn't on Amazon any longer. This kind of thing is similar although has even much more ports than mine. I used mine yesterday to transfer 200 GB+ of music and other files to the 6 Pro's internal storage.

My MicroSD card from my previous phone was in ExFAT format, so I had to buy Paragon's file system app from the Play Store in order to be able to read it on a Pixel (Google would have to pay Microsoft a royalty to add ExFAT support). Then I used the file manager of my choice, X-plore File Manager.

Wow, thank you everyone for all the great information. I really appreciate it!:love:
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Ultimoose:
Just wanted to say that I ended up getting the below item. It's made of metal which isn't obvious from the images on amazon and has a surprising amount of heft to it given it's size. Feels solid with no wiggle to the usb c male plug on it. Comes with one of those thin string key chain connectors as well which didn't come apart when I tugged the crap out of it.

Plugged it into my Pixel 2XL and it 'just worked' which honestly surprised me, having never needed something like this I was expecting it to be a chore to set up. I was easily able to copy files, media specifically, directly to my microsD cards without any problems.

The one gripe I have is the SD card doesn't 'lock' in. It's not at any danger of falling out but it does not have that press in *click*, press again *click* to pop it out that my GP's and drone has. It sticks out of the device about 3/16" of an inch to give you enough room to pull it back out. Just out of paranoia I would likely put the phone in a ziplock bag during a run when it's in my vest just to make sure if it somehow did get knocked out I wouldn't have to dig in the bottom of the vest trying to find it.

In 2014 I bought a Corsair 64 GB Flash Voyager OTG flash drive with Micro USB connector on one end (with a cap on it, which came with something to tie it to the main body), and a USB-A 3.0 connector on the other end. Looks like below. If I were going to buy a modern one I'd probably prefer one with a built-in cap again.

Edit 1: Actually, here's one with a cap and USB-A on the other end (second image), although I'd be torn which end to keep the cap on.

Edit 2: And now I see one with a cap for each end (third image).
