[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Talderon:
I see your point. This phone is NOT for everyone. I would not even consider getting this for my son. No, it would not last. He can juggle phone and tablet. For me, who does NOT "baby" my phone, but don't abuse it as well, it's great. A friend who works construction thought about it and I talked him out of it because of his work environment, this phone would not hold up.

Calling this device a "joke", I think is not right and just going to show how narrow your view on new tech really is. It's "Bleeding Edge" and most of us that bought this are okay with having to be a little more careful with our device because of the new tech and the delicacy of the first few generations of a device of this type.

All in all, everyone is going to have different views and attitudes to new tech. If you have no interest here, hijacking a thread to bash on a device is just childish. If you don't like this device, have no interest in it, well, do the smart thing, stay out of the forum for the phone and it won't cause you any issues regardless of what someone posts here. :)

Just my perspective. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Mr. Orange 645:
So this thread is about a genuine inner screen protector. There's a general discussion about the phone in another thread. But I will say almost everything you just said is completely untrue. And Ive used both the ZF2 and ZF3 as daily drivers and I don't baby them at all.

I don't take anyone's opinions personally. At all. I don't give AF what phone you like, don't like, use, don't use. I just get frustrated when I come here to help other users and get help, then people like you hijack threads with misinformation and just trash talk a device you've never used, and know nothing about. If you have to lie about a phone to discourage others from using it, or justifying why you don't like it, then you're obviously the one taking it personal.

So take your opinions and misinformation to the general discussion thread. Please and thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Talderon:
I agree completely and that is the last I will say about this...

Now, back to the OP.

I watched install vids for the $90 trash they had out before and it looked daunting, at best. Does this one have the same installation?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Mr. Orange 645:
As far as I can tell yes. It comes with the exact same jig
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Talderon:
Well, I am not sure I am skilled enough to get this installed. I would have to see if my Bro can do it if and when I need one. :D That dude has installed more WDS protectors that anyone I know (in the hundreds).
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Mr. Orange 645:
It actually looks pretty straight forward. There's no liquid adhesive on this. It's a dry install. It comes with a jig that lines everything up and you just press it down with a squeeqee. I posted a link to a video showing the installation earlier in the thread.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Talderon:
I may just give this a shot since mine is starting to show some issues. Nothing major and not enough yet to be annoying, but it'll get there fast.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] 416084:
I used them putting a screen protector on my wife's s21+.

Was the first time I have ever installed one that was perfect first try.

Not the same phone, just commenting on the product line. In general.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] riz157:
So does it damage the screen if screen protector is removed?

My phone's screen protector might need replacing as it's slightly damaged.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Techvir:
Many people have removed it with no issues
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] cpufrost:
Is this made by the same manufacturer that made the OEM protector? If not it cannot be called genuine. ;-)
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Mr. Orange 645:
So it's interesting you say that. Since I posted this they removed the claims that it's the genuine Samsung film. It no longer says that on their website or Amazon listing.

It's entirely possible that Whitestone was the original manufacturer of the screen protector, or were contracted by Samsung to produce replacements, which would also make them genuine.

My guess is after their claim it was genuine or original, there was a licensing issue and they had to remove that claim.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] klemen241:
iny my country its illegal to take original screen saver off, they cancel your warranty if you do it
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Mr. Orange 645:
I doubt it's ILLEGAL. For something be illegal, there must be a criminal penalty for it, i.e. Jail time or fine. I doubt the police in your country are going around arresting people for removing a screen protector.

In the US removing the screen protector doesn't void the warranty at all. What it says is, if you damage the screen either while removing the screen protector or as a result of having removed it, then that damage is no longer warrantied.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] klemen241:
rofl
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] WZDISMINE:
Thanks 😅! Really I watch for some screen protector, I'm glad! because I just want removing the original OEM screen protector for not reason, BUT I Don't!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] cpufrost:
I ripped the tag off a mattress once. I did not go to jail! ;-)
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] jeromepearce:
Ha ha!

I've reported you now. Just you wait...
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] skally:
Removed mine, screen feels way better without it on.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] klemen241:
I'll take it to warranty now, next time I'll rip it off
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] montrealbagel:
After a few fold, does the SP create crease?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Mr. Orange 645:
I haven't replaced the screen protector yet, but yes the crease will still be there.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] clairelara:
I actually replaced the screen guard with Gadgetshieldz film protectors and it sticks well and doesn't peel off. It also self heals the scratches that occur on it so looks good as new to me!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] HermesHidayat:
WSD has 2 versons. 1 is the PET version and other is the EPU. If you use the S Pen, get the PET. If not the EPU is enough.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Vibrato86:
im srry, why are you on this forum again? were you looking for something or just chumming the water? bizarre. happy trolling i suppose...
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] ButterflyFlutterflyMyOhMy:
Those that got this screen protector, how easy did it go on in regards to bubbles and dust? Is there a place that I can go to have them install it for me (without sending in the phone or otherwise having to wipe it)? I always get bubbles and dust with screen protectors, so hate putting them on.

The inner protector that came with my phone a year ago has had the coating worn off in the keyboard section, so oil slicks happen and fingerprints show, and also there's a bubble at the top of the crease, so I want to get a new protector put on.

Thanks!

[SuperSU] Omadon:
Hello everyone,

I recently bought a Predator 8 Tablet (GT-810) with Android 5.1 and proceeded to root it.

I only found 2 threads here, and both were VERY confusing and partly contradicted each other.

One suggested flashing 3 parts of an .img file which had previoulsy been extracted. Neither did I have the knowledge to do that nor I did not succeed finding a way to achieve that on the internet.

https://xdaforums.com/t/predator-8-...t-810-twrp-help-us-root.3482594/post-69722245

I then decided to go with the less adventurous option from the second thread:

https://xdaforums.com/t/acer-predator-8-twrp-3-0-2.3500801/

I succeeded in unlocking the bootloader.

After that, one person from the threads 5 years ago released some old files on Google Drive, among them an unsecuredbootimage.img, the TWRP.img and the SuperSu 2.46, which was supposed to work.

I flashed the unsecuredbootimage.img, then the TWRP.img, the SuperSU and when the root came up with RootChecker and I thought I was in heaven.

Unfortunately, I had no more access to either Wi-Fi, nor the SD-card. Wi-Fi would occasionally be greyed out, then turn on, but not find any network. The SD-card was not recgognized anymore.

I found a workaround which suggested I reflash only the "modem" file from within the boot.img, but I could not extract it.

How to Fix No WiFi, Calls, Network after Root or Custom ROM

In this tutorial, we will show you the steps to fix the no WiFi, Calls, or Network issues after root or flashing custom ROM on Android.

www.droidwin.com

I then proceeded to install Magisk. The Manager had already been installed, I transferred the latest version (23.0) as a zip file to the device and flashed it via TWRP.

When I tried to "patch a file" through Magisk / install, the "Let's go" option was always greyed out, so I was stuck there again.

When I checked the SuperSU, to my surprise, I could not find it any more within Android, it looked like it had disappeared, so I decided to reinstall it.

I went to recovery (TWRP) and flashed SuperSU 2.46 and since then I am in bootloop.

I need some help in exiting the bootloop and a solution for the missing Wi-Fi and SD-card connectivity.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Android 5.1

Predator 8 Table GT-810

SuperSU 2.46

TWRP 2.8.7.0

The additional files I have:

STOCK boot.img (30 MB)

STOCK factory.img (10 MB)

unsecuredboot.img for the device (9 MB)

Thanks in advance...

I NEED TOO
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] andress722:
Friend i win this battle, follow this:

1. download the Korean KDZ

2. download the .exe version of KZDtool here: https://bbs.lge.fun/thread-69.htm. Btw, the link in the tutorial has been outdated, I found the correct URL using Google: https://www.lanzoux.com/ia1u5ub

2.1 you need to extract the KDZ preferably the old version with android 9.

You need to download the python extractor, it is the only one that can extract all the images from kdz

3. Download the v50unbrickbackup https://drive.google.com/file/d/13AJ8SnKmpOrTQF2EQ1odJK7-4qfUTIdF/view

4. join the folders with the images and the .bin

5. download .raw files that i make https://mega.nz/folder/dAYzySqA#IMxrMAZeBCaAuUZ_eFB6Uw ('this raw file have a join files img and bin file

(notice that there is a mix of img and bin files.

This is due to missing some files from step 2)

6. put your cell in EDL and open qfil, select all rawprogrames with ctrl+a, and download!

7. After process, your phone go to download mode.

8. In LGUP, select refurbished, and join

(in this step i tried a few times without success. The process failed midway.

But after 2 attempts, success!)

FOR ME WORKS, I'm VERY GLAD! I PRAY A LOT, AND JESUS SAVE THE DAY. LOVE JESUS REALLY, GOD SAVE MY MONEY AFTER I PRAY.

[Moto G Stylus (2021)] verbage:
So when you buy a Moto G Stylus (2021), it comes with a 10W charger. And 10W that is sort of what is cagily listed on the Moto website for this device. But when I plug it into a QC3 charger, I get about a 14W charging rate (5V x 2.8A). Does anybody know the maximum charge rate for this device, and specific charger models that can provide it? Would a USB-C PD charger at a higher wattage be able to charge at a faster rate? Thanks in advance for your comments on this matter.
[Moto G Stylus (2021)] mario0318:
To answer your question, yes a USB C PD adapter would provide faster charging. So long as it's QC 3.0 or higher. 18W or 30W should be fine, I believe the phone input charge maxes out at 15 Watts (absolutely no permission to quote me on that lol) so if you don't mind a bit of heat and the potential of degrading your battery slightly faster than with charging on a standard 1A, 2.4V charger, then the 18W or 27W USB C wall adapter that is compatible with QC 3.0 or 4.0, should be sufficient. Don't forget to grab a couple good grade USB C to C cables as they are often the first thing to go bad and prevents turbocharge from kicking in.
[Moto G Stylus (2021)] verbage:
Thanks for the comments, @mario0318 So if I am currently seeing 14W (5V x 2.8A) with a QC3 charger, it sounds like I may be near the max already if it is only 15W. I have no USB-C PD chargers yet that I can use to test, but there was a 25W Belkin model on sale today (for Black Friday) for just $10 so I ordered myself one. When it comes in, I'll test it versus the QC3 charger to see if there is any significant difference.
[Moto G Stylus (2021)] verbage:
So I have a basic update here. The QC3 charger I mentioned has an LED readout on it, and that is where I got the estimated 14W charge rate (as 5V x 2.8A). The new 25W Belkin charger I got does not have an LED readout for V & A on it, however. So I turned to the Ampere app on the Play Store. Then I swapped back and forth between the two charging systems and watched the estimated charge rate on Ampere. The 25W Belkin charger definitely shows higher charge rates according to the Ampere app. But I've ordered myself a USB C charge meter (like the old USB "doctor" meters, but with USB C connections) from China to document it more closely.

I might be missing something, but one thing I see lacking with the Ampere app is logging capability--it seems like its strength is just showing rates in real time. It would be cool to find an app that can not only monitor in real0time, but also log charging events with V & A stats, etc. I see AccuBattery may potentially provide this. Or any suggestions out there for another battery charge monitoring app that you think might do the trick?

For those potentially interested in the 25W Belkin charger, the specific model is the "WCA004dqWH", and it is on sale now for $10. It is actually mentioned in a news snippet here at XDA:

https://www.xda-developers.com/belkin-usb-c-25w-charger-deal-november-2021/
[Moto G Stylus (2021)] mario0318:
I think the Battery Manager app by 3C allows recording logs for power charging events. But I forget if there's a limit with the free app compared to the paid/donate unlocked features.

Regarding the charger wattage, I'm fairly sure anything past 25W would be over kill for charging a single device like the 2021 moto g. At that point it becomes more suitable for two devices, with anything far higher like 60W or 85W being totally unnecessary and potentially harmful.
[Moto G Stylus (2021)] verbage:
Thanks again, @mario0318 , for your new comments. I agree that anything beyond 25W would be overkill for this phone.

As a further update, I decided to swap over to AccuBattery, and upgrade to the Pro version. As my Stylus was already charged, I decided to try the two chargers with a Nord N10 5G that had arround a 40% charge. The QC3 charger was charging at an average of 1993 mA with the screen off after I left it sit for a few minutes. When I swapped to the 25W Belkin sytem, it jumped to 2993 mA under the same scenario so like a full 1 Amp difference. These are about the same differences I noticed between the two chargers when charging my G Stylus (2021), but I did not want to say that above because they were off-the-cuff observations. But I took screenshots with AccuBattery this time so no apprehension in stating values this time around. I'll do the same with my G Stylus next time it needs a charge.

AccuBattery suggests only charging up to 80% capacity vs. 100% capacity given the wear and tear difference on the battery. I guess I'll try that, but in the long run, replacing the battery on the G Stylus (2021)--if it ever becomes necessary--looks pretty doable based on teardown videos.

I don't know if it is the same for Xperia 1 iii, but my Xperia 10 iii has both fastboot mode and fastbootd. Make sure you are booted into fastboot mode as fastbootd won't work.

To boot into fastboot mode:

Turn off your device.

Connect a USB-cable to your computer.

On your device, press the Fastboot key (Volume Up) at the same time as you connect the other end of the USB-cable.

Did it work?
