[Touch Pro, Fuze General] tsaros-se:
Hi all,

Is there a tweak or something that allows for other ways to wake the phone from standby?

At the moment i have found that removing the stylus or opening the keyboard is the only way to wake the phone, to me this is kind of a odd behavior.

What if i want to make a one handed phone call, the above methods for bringing the device back to life is uncomfortable at best.

The mode i describe as standby is keys locked and screen powered down, in a perfect world i would like to press home and have the screen power up "dimmed" so that i can see where the unlock buttons are and go from there.

Is there a solution to this?

Im new to phones of this sort so if there is a generic solution i am not aware of it :)

Since nothing of relevance came up during my search im guessing that i am the only one who sees this as a problem?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Mr.Sir:
Press the power button ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] tsaros-se:
ohh:o

Thank you :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] lepermessiah:
:D that was really funny :) but it's okay..
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] athanaso77:
I press my bluetooth hands-free button for that.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] freco:
OK with bluetooth hands-free button but starts voice dialer too.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] athanaso77:
Unless you have a cooked ROM with Cyberon removed! ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] chrisbjr:
nice simple answer. lol
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] TheBundo:
Dropping the phone sometimes works too
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] GroinsNZ:
Could you please be more specific for the newbies here; i.e. from what height should you drop it, what surface is more effective (concrete, damp grass, wood chips?), should you let it just drop from your hand or actually throw it, etc

Thanks.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Artcrime:
to be certain of dropping it properly you should do it from at least a 5th floor window, tho 8th is reccomended.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] alvinjue:
i believe the best place to try to wake the phone from standby would be the empire state building. always works like a charm when i throw my phones, laptops and tv`s to wake up (others)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Jouke74:
I dropped my phone from the 8th floor, but now it "crashed" :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] tsaros-se:
Interesting to see that you found a thread that has been dead for 6 weeks just to make fun of the issue i had.

My bet is that you searched yourself to this thread since you had the same "problem" as i did :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] misfitwrx:
all joking aside he actually had a good question. we all know the power button wakes up the phone, however i would like to know if there is a way to have the center d-pad button wake the phone up instead of or in addition to the power button.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] dukemen:
I would like this or just a simple tap on the screen should wake it. I think there should also be a "screen lock" when it sleeps like the Iphone
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] xsincerex:
i found then when your on a call and the screen turns off, you can wake it back up by press down on the scroll wheel.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] htc_fuzer:
I was thinking of mapping it to PTT, but center d-pad button would be even better and intuitive. Is there a way to do this mapping?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] misfitwrx:
not sure, im sure anything is possible here at XDA. if it is possible im sure someone here can figure out how to do it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] htc_fuzer:
Mapping PTT to "wake up" Fuze

Does any one know whether it is possible to map PTT (short press) to wake up fuze from standby. It's not all that convenient to reach the power button with one-hand operation.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ptyindian:
use ae button program. although its not free but you can get it for free if u do some google searching since i can not post the link here.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] kakashi_senpai:
hi all

i downgraded my mate 20 pro lya-l29 to emui 10.0, and now hisuit is not detecting it , i wanted to downgrad it again to 9.1 with otg but it says install failed due to incompatible system version

i dont want to update to 11 again with wifi

is there any solution to downgrad to 9.1 ?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] okey2k:
Same problem here. Any update further?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] M-Magdy:
Kinda late but, did you find a solution?
[Amazfit] sm_atuno:
left it in a refrigerator for 10 minutes inside a ziplock, then pressed

the power key for 30 seconds to hard reset, solved this issue twice.

unusual but worked.
[Amazfit] h1j4ck3r:
Yes, that's very unusual indeed.

The refrigerator did the trick, but after one or two minutes the touch stopped working again.

:(

Any other ideas?
[Amazfit] MichK03:
I've owned mine for the past 5 months and I've never had such an issue. If the watch isn't damaged and behaves like that you should probably speak to your dealer about warranty.
[Amazfit] JacqualineLindsey:
I ordered my Amazfit online but there is no such issue I am facing. Now before applying any tricks and making it worse you should give it to the dealer for repair.
[Amazfit] Hjoe69:
it didn’t work when put in the fridge, but when I forgot in the freezer for 20 minutes, it worked afterwards. So thank you for the idea
[General Questions and Answers] fosgate3:
I apologise ahead of time if this is a dumb question but I don't know the answer so I've come here to find out.

I am looking to upgrade from my very old Samsung Note 4 SM-N910V to a newer device that can be rooted. I am considering the Note 20 Ultra but I read that only the phones using the Exynos chipset can be rooted. I am in the US and use Verizon. Will a Note phone using Exynos work for me here in the States?

I love the functionality of my Note 4 and had hoped to stick with the Note line but I am open to suggestions too if anyone has an idea of a better device that performs similar to what I have (something about old dogs and new tricks comes to mind).

Thanks in advance and I apologise again if this is something I am supposed to know already :)
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
The Snapdragon variant is preferable but hard to root. I keep my N10+'s stock, use a package disabler and Karma Firewall. They run well.

Android 11 and 12 are dogs. There are still new N10+'s available running on Android 10.

Be careful buying a N20U's or N10+'s, a lot of scamming, misleading specs, etc going on.

Lol, either way brace yourself for future shock.
[General Questions and Answers] fosgate3:
Thanks for the reply. I thought about keeping it stock too. I just don't care for all the bloatware and the crappy updates that are designed to make your phone fail.

Incidentally and regarding updates, I ended up proving this to myself by accident when I bought a replacement Note 4 several years ago after my original quit fast charging after an update and quit reading the sd card. They were separate issues and the phone had one day left on its warranty so they gave me an S7. I hated it and bought another Note 4 on ebay. I started installing updates and discovered that the update after 5.1.1 caused the phone not to fast charge. I reset and tried again, same thing. After a few more attempts, I concluded the update was at fault so I rooted it with the 5.1.1 system and it's been running great since. The update at fault just happened to be released around the same time as when the next Note version was coming out. It could all just be coincidence but there was so much talk about phone companies creating updates that intentionally make your phone run like crap just to get consumers to buy new ones that I felt what I found going on with the update was just another example of the same thing (phone manufacturers deliberately causing phones to fail so consumers will buy more).

Other than replacing screens, I haven't had any problems at all with my Note 4. I would keep it forever if it wasn't for this 5g bs. They already started modifying towers near where I work and I cannot send or receive texts or calls within 3 to 4 blocks of my office. I can have full 4g service with 4 bars but as soon as I try to call someone, the service drops completely and goes to zero bars. When I try to text, I get a message saying there's no service available and the message will be sent when it becomes available. The phone works flawlessly everywhere else in my area but not there. I have complained several times to Verizon but they won't do anything but offer me more crap to buy. So upgrading is unfortunately inevitable.
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
It's the carriers that update trash the phones. AT&T, Verizon are partnered with Samsung and actively spec the firmware. AT&T broke my S4+ with the Lollipop update. It changed the layout from line to a grid one for many system apps making it next to unusable. Yet the newer AT&T models running on Lollipop still had the line format on apps like contacts. So yeah, carriers deliberately break phones...

No root is needed especially on newer phones and may destroy features you want.

You'll want to use a a package disabler though.

You can easily block firmware updates with it.

4G LTE will be around for at least 5 years if not longer. That's not an issue. Not sure what the N4's specs are. The N10+ 4G works fine.

Check Access point names, this is the current AT&T one:

View attachment 5457313

Try a network reset on your end, clear sim toolkit data and clear the system cache.

Try creating a new profile with the current carrier access point info. Talk to the carrier advance tech support about this. Have them do a network reset on their end.
[General Questions and Answers] fosgate3:
On my phone, I do not have an option to reset the network--or at least not one that is easily found. When I go to Settings and then to Backup and Reset, I have an option for "Factory Data Reset" and "Reset settings". I haven't used either because I am worried I will lose root and I don't want to have to go through the trouble of re-rooting it again (I don't even know if I can find the thread I followed when I first did it years ago). I think I would lose root with the first option but I'm not sure about the second. I thought it would be under the "More Networks" option but it isn't. I can't find SIM toolkit under the Manage Applications setting so I'm not sure how to reset it.

I know I've had the phone forever and I probably should know all these details but to be honest, I never needed to do anything like this before. Everything simply worked until mid-July of this year and then suddenly, I had all the problems I described around my office (and it seems to be *only* around my office).
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
It's in Settings under Connections.

I'm pretty sure my S4+ running on Kitkat had it.

How it looks on the N10+ Pie:

[General Questions and Answers] fosgate3:
Unfortunately, I do not have an option for Connections. Here's what I have in order as it appears when I scroll...
[General Questions and Answers] fosgate3:
If I go to Backup and reset, I have this...
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
Under more networks
[General Questions and Answers] fosgate3:
That's what I thought too but nada...
[General Questions and Answers] fosgate3:
And under Mobile networks (the next logical place)...
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
Try this.

Settings> General management>Reset>Reset network settings

It should be on that reset menu above the factory reset option.
[General Questions and Answers] fosgate3:
I wish I could but I don't have General management settings listed anywhere.

The only option I have to reset anything is under "Backup and reset", where I am given a choice to either do a Factory Data Reset or Reset Settings. I don't know what Reset Settings will do and if it will affect root access so I've never used it.
[General Questions and Answers] fosgate3:
This is all I have to choose from under Backup and reset...
[General Questions and Answers] fosgate3:
And when I select "Reset settings", I get this...
[General Questions and Answers] fosgate3:
So I don't know where I would go to reset my network settings. I don't know why there isn't an option anywhere. As for the SIM toolkit, I don't know where to find it. I know it exists because I can see it listed in an app I use to freeze or remove unwanted programs called Chef's Freezer. But I don't know how to access it, use it, or clear the cache.
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
That's not it.

Just booted and looked through my S4+, nothing.

Guess I'm wrong. Damn that's so painful to navigate and slow compared to my N10+, think I lost a couple IQ points just using it🤣

I'll play with it more latter...
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
It should show as a system app.
[General Questions and Answers] fosgate3:
I found the SIM Toolkit. I was looking in the wrong place in app manager. Is it strange that the cache us empty?
[General Questions and Answers] fosgate3:
And now, as of tonight, it is starting to do the same thing here at my house. When I try to text, I am getting a message stating there's no service in spite of having two bars which is enough to send a text. When I try to make a call, the bars immediately disappear and the call is stuck on "dialing" but us never made. When I hang up, the bars reappear.

Hi Folks,

I have an o2 XDA Orbit 2 running T-Mobile. After upgrading to WM6 (original o2 version) my XDA allways drops the UMTS connection after a short while. So reading a website and clicking to a link (e.g. NEXT PAGE) has a reconnection as result. I is simply anoying and slow!

Does anyone has a idea to prevent this? I have a Internet Flat rate so I don't bother about traffic at all... ;-)

Any comments are welcome!

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Has anyone ever tested the wireless charging receiver -> USB-C adapters that are available? Thought about grabbing a couple and slapping them on the back of our free Pixel Buds A-Series so that in a pinch we could reverse charge them from our P6Ps.

Now's a good time to try some from Amazon since right now you can return things through the end of January, but I'd still rather hear folks' first-hand reviews here on XDA.

One concern I would have is when I want to still charge by USB-C, is it a pain to remove the adapter's low-profile USB-C plug, and does it survive well over time?

TIA

[Touch GSM General] rwthorne:
New to this site and I have a Canadian Rogers HTC Touch elf Rom version 2.21.631.1 wwe dated 10/05/07 I am tired of the fact that all the other cell companies in Canada are offering the upgrade to 6.1. I have contacted Rogers and they said nothing was tested for their network yet and didn't even know if was going to be offered. I have recently notice that Sprint in US is offering the upgrade and their work on gsm same as rogers. Has anyone tested the rom on a Rogers phone and does it work. I am getting frustrated. I am not skilled enough or too nervous to experiment with cooked roms. I need all my current features but want the 6.1
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] V0latyle:
Can someone either dump their APK or share what version of Photos is on your device? Been trying to figure out which version on APK Mirror is supposed to have Magic Eraser.

...Also, I wonder why Google doesn't just release this feature to all Pixel devices...
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] spr33:
Magic Eraser is no longer exclusive to the Pixel 6

Try it at your own risk

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] V0latyle:
I saw that, I was hoping someone had a more recent version.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
It doesn't depend on a server-side switch as well? The Google Photos app version I'm running is 5.66.0.406885096. I'll see if I can attach the apk in a moment.

Edit: The APK is in the process of uploading through the XDA app, will take a minute or two... Uploaded in new post below.

I love Nova 7's built-in ability to save an APK from a long-press on an app's icon! I knew I enabled that for a reason.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Try this. I'm frankly surprised a 70.5 MB attachment is acceptable on XDA. I coulda compressed it but I didn't; let me know if I should to avoid corruption.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] V0latyle:
I wasn't able to install this one. "App not installed as package appears to be invalid."
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Try this inside a zip file.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] V0latyle:
I don't think it's something wrong with your package; it's something to do with the new Photos builds.

I uninstalled all updates for Photos, and I was able to install the 5096/1127 version. The one you posted is also 5096, but interestingly it's 70MB, whereas the only ARM64 versions on APKMirror are the 66MB one (5096/1119) and the 100MB one (5096/1127).

It's really hard to tell what the "latest" version is - the one you posted is the latest version I see on Play Store (5.66.0.406885096) but there's also 5.66.0.4092455188, 5.66.0.409436829, 5.67.0.409192963, 5.67.0.409448818...

I don't know a ton about device specific apps, is there a particular version that's appropriate for Pixels?

I had the same issue. Never like that with a previous phone, it's really seems like a Samsung thing for me. I even accidentally actually called the emergency services from my pocket last week, first time ever that that happened :-(

I did seem to fix it for me though, by disabling double tap to wake (Settings|Advanced Settings|Gestures). In fact I cleared all the first four settings on that page.

So the way I have it configured now tapping or pressing the locked screen only let' me unlock with my fingerprint and nothing else, for all other use I have to press the powerbutton first.
