[Google Pixel 6 Pro] hello00:
might as well wait for the s22 🤣
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Mikey:
Wouldn't take a Sammy if it was free. 😏
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Definitely can't root that, or if possible, a limited pain in the butt.

Me neither. Soon as we get our 6 Pro 512 GB, selling our two Note 10+. Horrible software!
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Batfink33:
Ah ok, thanks. Nothing happening on my UK order due for delivery on the 26th but I think everything will start happening here tomorrow.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] kboya:
I too have the "we'll email you..." update with 26th delivery date. Ordered during the "2hours of refresh" on the 19th. UK.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Lughnasadh:
Yep, I got that message as well.

Cancel button gone! Estimated delivery of October 26-27th. US
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Bwyan Benton:
Bingo!

The mail delivery cavalry will be busy this coming week!🙂😎🏃🌍🌎🚙🚐
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Bwyan Benton:
I wish I would get that message already! Ugh

At least there just little boxes tho
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Batfink33:
I have that now in the UK too.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Nekromantik:
same here so should be dispatched tomorrow
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Batfink33:
Who do Google usually use as a courier? Im hoping it's DPD as you can usually upgrade their delivery to early morning.

This reminds me when the Nexus 4 came out in '12
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] zymphad:
Zero reviews.

No one is concerned that Google didn't want any reviews of their phone?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Bwyan Benton:
No. There's a very good reason for the double embargo. And I happen to agree with the move. No concern at all here.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Lughnasadh:
Not really b/c they will be coming out tomorrow. It's not like they are trying to hide them forever. And people don't have to buy them before they come out. I believe they just want to make sure the reviewers have enough time to fully review them. And you will still have plenty of time to either cancel your order or return them after the reviews come out. So I don't think this is a case of trying to pull the wool over our heads.

Having said that, it is Go0gle 🙃
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Nekromantik:
yuo can always return it.

just dont open the phone until reviews are out and you like what they say
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] zymphad:
I am impressed considering every Pixel phone has been a disaster disappointment.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Bwyan Benton:
They wanna make sure ALL reviewers have an equal chance at posting a review. Not just the BIG reviewers that got the phone sooner than them.

There should be no red flags on this, people can always just return the phones anyways.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Bwyan Benton:
Not the same experience here. Pixel has been my favorite experience.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Lughnasadh:
Yes, as well as giving them enough time since some just got them last week.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] TiltedAz:
I have no complaints with the Pixel 3 XL but Pixel 4 and 5 variants failed to tempt me to upgrade.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Lughnasadh:
Well, that's a personal opinion. I know tons of people who love their Pixels. Of course, some love different models more than others.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Bwyan Benton:
Exactly.

I have no worries about my 6 pro.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] flink88:
Hi every one. I hope you will wan help me.

I bricked my sm-t830 by shut it off while app was transfered to sd card (i know i'm totaly dumb for doing it) and know my tab is stuck in a bootloop.

I already try to flash it whith several official rom (AP, BL, CSC) with odin 3 but non of these try was a success. One of the dificulties is that i don't know whit csc my tab is (tha tab was buy in Belgium). I have very few experience on flashing devices since my last time was on a HTC Hero years ago. So if anyone couldhelp me it will be greatly appreciate.

I have certenly not provide enough info so ask me what you need and i'll answer the best i can.

Thanks a lot fon any help.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] flink88:

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] flink88:
Please?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] hapibu:
No help, but the same problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] hapibu:
Problem:

Starts with logo, then comes the Samsung lettering, and after a long time everything starts again from the beginning.

The tab was unfortunately not unlocked at all, i.e. not even USB debugging was enabled

Attempted solutions:

Booted into Recovery Mode, Cleared Cache, Reset to Factory Defaults.

Tried to install new ROM with ODIN. Seems to have worked, but nothing has changed.

Let the tab discharge completely again, then charged it to 100% at a power outlet. Also no change.

What else can I try?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] sketaful:
So you have flashed latest stock rom on it with odin and odin said it was a success?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] roadtrip111:
I have the exact same problem. I flashed the latest stock rom with odin, got success message but the SM-T830 is still stuck in the bootloop.

I bought the tablet from ebay and was told the bootloop is present since an automatic samsung update. I can only access download mode when the battery is totally empty. Sometimes I can access recovery mode, most of the time there is a black screen and no buttons work at all until the battery is drained.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] sketaful:
When you try to reach odin mode do you have it connected to the computer? I could only get to the odin mode by having it connected to my pc while pressing power+volume down.

I also could only flash it correctly in Windows 7. Didn't work in Windows 10/11 no matter how I tried...

Also make sure you're flashing at least the same or higher version of stock rom
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] roadtrip111:
With odin mode you mean download mode I guess? I can only access by waiting (over night) for the battery to go totally empty. Afterwards I hold vol+ and vol- and connect USB to the pc, then I can access download mode.

I use windows 10 in virtualbox on linux, and I cannot downgrade the stockrom, I flashed T830XXU5CUE2 with odin in windows 10.

I would like to try a recent combination rom, but can't find a u5 version :(.

To me it seems like a serious samsung issue which is not caused by wrong flashing, but caused by malfunctioning software update of samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] sketaful:
Ah, That's a bummer. I just connect it to the PC and hold vol-down + power until it shuts down and quickly release and then hold the buttons again.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Questions & Answers] roadtrip111:
So I managed to get out of the bootloop. It was a looong journey and I can't reproduce what exactly made it work again. I did several data/factory resets & wipe cache in recovery mode, I flashed firmware in odin several times, but nothing helped. As OEM is locked and i could not unlock it, because of the bootloop not letting me get into the system, adb and fastboot did not help much. But finally the tab is back alive again. I hope the provided information might help somebody else, even if not consistent:

# I used Windows 10 in virtualbox on linux.

# I installed Samsung mobile drivers directly from Samsung

# I used Odin3-v3.13.1

# I flashed current firmware "T830XXU5CUE2". Downgrading wasn't possible because OEM was locked anyway.

I tried it maybe 20-30 times with and withound re-partition and nand erase in odin. The flashing was always successful but the boot loop was still present.

This are the last steps that might have made the difference:

1. I flashed only BL_T830XXU5CUE2_CL21567889_QB40146090_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5 in BL, not the rest of the firmware

Afterwards I rebooted, but bootloop was present. So I waited for the battery to go empty, then back in download mode

2. I flashed the whole firmware BL, AP, HOME_CSC with pit file and re-partition and nand erase

Afterwards I rebooted, but bootloop was present. So I waited for the battery to go empty, but this time I went into recovery mode

3. wipe data/factory reset

4. wipe cache partition

5. reboot system now

and finally it worked.

I really don't know what made the difference as I feel I did these steps before without sucess, but maybe it helps somebody.

Good luck!

Hi. Flash it through odin. It will work. samsung has high firmware requirements. Download the firmware of the same android version and region. I couldn't flash it the first time either

*******************

привет. Прошивайте через odin. Все получится . У samsung высокие требования к прошивке. Качайте прошивку того же версии андроид и региона. Я тоже не мог прошить с первого раза
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] gtludwig:
Hi all,

It has been a while since I last dabbled in using custom ROMs on my devices.

I have this nifty tablet that is not being used because it is locking up, rebooting out of the blue, very slow to respond to inputs, etc.

I did a hard reset and wiped data and cache. It booted up into the setup screen but it is still really slow. I think it does not took well to the Android updates by Samsung.

I managed to boot into Odin mode by pressing power + volume up + home. I got its blue screen with a big icon and it says Downloading... Do not turn off target.

On the top left corner, it reads:

ODIN MODE (HIGH SPEED)

PRODUCT NAME: SM-T820

CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official

FRP LOCK: OFF

OEM LOCK: ON

KG STATUS: PRENORMAL

DID: <some-string>

WARRANTY VOID: 0x0

QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE

AP SWREV: B3(1,1,1,1,1) K2 S2

SECURE DOWNLOAD: ENABLE

CCIC: S2MM005 HW: 4 Boot: 6 Main: d5

I don't think it is connected to the internet.

I don't care about its warranty to be voided, I just would like it to be usable.

I know I need to root it to be able to install a new ROM. What do I need to do in order to get to that point?

Thanks in advance,
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Simply reflash to the last good version it was running on... if it once was running well.

Once you do that disable OTA updates.

Not needed or desirable, they break devices.

With Android 9 or 10 security simply isn't an issue unless you do something stupid.

This is the least time intensive solution. I've been running stock Samsung's for 6 years.

I do use a package disabler and Karma Firewall to optimize and lock them down.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] elchmartin:
the 3rd party ROMs i've tried didnt really work for me.

neither really did the downslimmed-from-the-original versions ...

stock with lates OTA works OK for me, though its a bit sluggish.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
It's a bit light on ram, clearing out some of the bloatware would help as well as not keeping multiple apps open.

Oreo might run better than Pie but has more vulnerabilities including that nasty "immortal" rootkit that's hard to purge.

With Pie use the stock Samsung launcher as it's fast and uses little resources.

Maybe the OP didn't get a good update with Pie.

On my N10+ Pie was a bear to optimize and was initially using a lot of cpu cycles/resources. It runs very well now though. My typical ram usage is around 5.2 of 12gb and that's with a lot of packages blocked including Bixby.

I haven't run Oreo but some here prefer it; it may yield better ram conservation.

Pie: disable Google Backup Transport, Framework, Firebase, carrier/Google feedback.

Temporarily disable Google play Services and Playstore, enable as needed. Use freeware Karma Firewall's logging feature to help find the hogs and to block internet access to apps accessing the internet needlessly and/or unwantedly.

Use this setting to globally block ads on the device...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] gtludwig:
Thank you for your replies.

The tablet is currently a glorified paper weight as I can't even boot it.

I did a factory reset a couple of days ago and when it was going through its initial setup, it asked if I wanted to set a pin on powering up. I have set the pin and once it boots up, I am prompted for it and it already is really slow - when the numeric keyboard is shown, it will not recognise the numbers I type. If the keyboard is shown in the first place.

I just managed to re-do a factory hard reset and am trying to unlock the bootloader now.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] Phat Phreddy:
Yeah coming here for the same, this used to be an ok tablet, I barely use it and have super low expectations.. some Facebook, media and movies when traveling, Netflix, Spotify, maybe an audible.. nothing much.

It used to work fine but sometime this summer an update made it super slow and a reset hasn't revived it.

Surely there's an asop ROM that can run lean on this hardware ?? It used to do these duties just fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Try reflashing to the stock for diagnostic purposes. It may have a rootkit or the firmware may be corrupted. Normally firmware doesn't just get corrupted by it's self.

If that doesn't work it's likely a mobo failure. At least you know what the problem is then.

A custom rom may or not work for a partial mobo failure depending what is damaged and the particular rom. Another rom may work...

That seems to solve some members problems here though so it be worth a few tries.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heinzer_2021:
Hi!

I'm still on my way ro root my Samsung Tab SM-T725, after upgrading to Android 11. Before Android 9 was on the device, succesfully rooted via Magisk. Updating and keeping the root status didn't work properly, the flashing process in Odin failed. Therfefore I had to flash the latest stock recovery, successfully. So now I have Android 11 on my device but no root. The bootloader is open and USB debugging enabled.

I tried the method described here. But the flashing in Odin failed again. So now I try to follow the instructions on the Magisk website. If I get everything right a processed recovery.img has to be flashed via ADB/Fastboot. That's new to me and I have questions.

- Is fastboot and download/recovery mode the same? Booting to the recovery and following "reboot to bootloader" leads to the turquois "Downloading" window. The same occurs when prompting "ADB reboot fastboot" e. g. Again the mentioned Downloading window shows up, nothing (special) with fastboot. Is that correct?

- Will therefore all fastboot commands not work? And only ADB is possible on my tablet? Is that common for Samsung devices?

- Can the flashing of the patched recovery.img (for Magisk) be done with ADB as well? Instructions always mention fastboot.

- My device doesn't show up in ADB when being in recovery mode. In normal mode it is listed when entering "ADB devices". Trying again in recovery mode the list stays empty - and all other commands have no effect. Current Samsung and Google USB drivers are installed. How could that be solved? Without ADB (perhaps fastbood) running in download mode I shouldn't be able to flash (and root the device) as planned.

I hope I described everything properly. I'm not that Android expert - but successfully managed to root a couple of devices over the years.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 1890170:
Samsung devices dont know of Fastboot mode. But you can run them in either Recovery or Odin / Download mode or Normal mode.

Running Samsung devices in Download mode you can flash ROM or update system in the Android device. When the Samsung device has entered Download mode, the device will boot from external sources. You can also make the stock ROM replaced in Download mode.

ADB mode is the Normal mode.

In Recovery mode ADB - with some exceptions - isn't working

Because your device is a Samsung one the Google USB drivers are senseless. Remove them to avoid conflicts.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heinzer_2021:
Thanks for the quick and helpful response!

That makes clear why the tablet didn't show up in ADB. And that all rooting efforts for Samsung devices via that way should be obsolete. Strange enough that Magisk doesn't mention this on their instruction site.

So I'll have to try on with flashing a patched AP via Odin - and hope for a solution for my fail-problem.
[Redmi 10X / 10X Pro Questions & Answers] amitmahajan74:
I have Redmi Prime 10. While using the mobile, calling is fine, voice goes through, but while using whatsapp when using the speaker my voice goes through but while using without the speaker the other person hears very low or no voice. Have gone to service center and they put the latest firmware from computer, when checked there it worked fine but again getting the same problem. Out of 10 calls 9 people can't hear on whatsapp calling, but works ok on speaker and video call.

Any ideas how to rectify, hardware seems fine as when calling through mobile carrier voice goes through fine.

hello, i've just found something really interesting in kane bootloader. so whats going on? i've downloaded kane blankflash from lolinet mirror and got out some nice informations from lk.bin, probably fastboot module, lookView attachment 5437439

these are hidden oem commands, some of them are not even displayed when typing "fastboot oem help" in fastboot mode. commands that got my attraction the most are "fastboot oem ramdump", "fastboot oem logo" and "fastboot oem ssm_test 10 1". look what happens when i try to enter these.View attachment 5437441

yeah i've even tried with mfastboot. my bootloader is unlocked, but in many bootloaders setting some byte in bootloader code and then flashing it by edl unlocks bootloader without any oem tools or unlock codes, maybe this is also a method for unlocking these commands. there is something in kane called exynos mode or exynos usb download, this is exactly the same as edl, this is the mode that you flash blankflash in, but on exynos device. does someone know how to get in here without purposely breaking bootloader? still someone more experienced than me needs to figure out how to unlock it and what to change in bootloader image.
[Motorola One Vision Guides, News, & Discussion] rei20:
Shame no one has ever picked this up. Could it have anything to do with the password protected fastboot tool that Motorola ships out in their RSA recovery tool?

Maybe if you run the tool on a sandbox, you'll be able to find to find passord free version on temp files.

Anyone have any insight on a release date?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] 400ixl:
Removed as misread title
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] bouchigo:
Maybe Oct. 28th, on the official release date of the phone, but your guess is as good as anyone else's.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Clockedx:
The stand is pretty dope, and I can't wait to get my hands on it but so far it looks like it's a TBD without any real solid date. I highly doubt it will be here on the 28th but before the holidays is my expectations.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] skimminstones:
Was thinking of getting this but the price seems very high. I only charge my phone's over night anyway so don't specifically need a fast charger, although it's nice to have. I'll probably just buy a different wireless charger from Amazon
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Clockedx:
True, from what I know it will be the fastest wireless charger on the market... So much so it comes with two fans 🤣
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Nekromantik:
Nope.

OnePlus 8 had wireless charging at 30W and 50W on the OnePlus 9.

I got wireless charger from my OP8 but on pixel it will only do 15W. I got store credit on Google but even after that it will still cost me over 40!

I managed to grab OnePlus charger on Amazon at half price 2 months after release.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Clockedx:
Well that's dope! I gotta find me one! But even than it's a twin cell battery which has two independent charging systems. Will the same 30-50w charging apply to the pixel?

By the fastest wireless charger, I was referencing to the Pixel line of wireless charging which will be up to 23w with the new wireless charger.

*Edited because I'm an idiot and replied multiple times 🥲
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Nekromantik:
Nope

OnePlus wireless fast charging is proprietary plus pixel hardware does not support this. So using any other wireless charger will limit to 15W
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] skimminstones:
I think any other wireless charger is limited to 12w in the pixels?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Clockedx:
That's the point I'm trying to make, I'm aware of what others can do but I'm not excited by them. I'm excited to see what the new "Pixel Wireless Charger" will do! If you've bought into the Pixel line of phones, this release is exciting because going forward the Pixel is going to change the game, if.... It's done right! And yes to your point, wireless charging is one key aspect.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Nekromantik:
Sadly pixel charging always behind others like OnePlus and Samsung.

Hallo

I have an Android 7 phone (Cubot Note Plus, rooted) which I just use as a WiFi Hotspot for my main phone, tablet and computers, when travelling.

The data plan I have is not that big, so I would like to know which connected devices are using how many data of my plan. Is there a way to check this?

In the data used, I only see the whole hotspot data, but not each connected device's data consumption.

Is there maybe an app to see that? Root is available, so maybe with Tasker (which is installed)?

Thanks for hints.
