Hi all ,im new to computer and phone/tablet software and hardware (when it comes to keeping updated and current especially) And I've always fancied the idea of a sort of Tank Girl post apocoliptic way of life where we use what ever teck we can get our hands on and make do with repairing , upcicling and frankingstineing bits together . So I'm hoping to learn how to do so with the software and hardware on here ...
[General Questions and Answers] North_Star:
Hello ppl,

Today marks the first time since booting up my ol' Xperia Z in '16 that it's recognized as a device on G's *Play Store*. How & why functionality suddenly appeared after so long MIA harkens to one of those closing news segments reporting a long-lost pet reuniting with its owner.

Bought in China, my device had GApps disabled from the OEM, excluding it from using the PS. Every blue moon I'd run a hack I'd read to install GApps to no lasting effect. Last week I installed *BusyBox* to allow root functions with a backup app. Since then it seems two nagging probs were nailed. One being new PS access on the device & the second being an irksome charging issue fixed.

On the first, I'm unaware of Google going lenient on PS access via a GAaps -crippled devices. On the second, the timing of the years' long issue resolving immed. after installing BB pts to it making the difference—bringing the Q: What's in BB that (might've) finally rid the bugs?

[XPERIA X1 General] emwdava:
1 thing that bugs me about the X1 is that when I make a call or receive a call I press the display with my ear and I'm entering menues and possibly even changing settings without knowing it.

Is there a way to automatically lock the screen when making a call or receiving a call? (like it's done with the power button)

Any help is appreciated :)
[XPERIA X1 General] jeeves5454:
It should be possible to steal the registry settings from a TyTn 2 device or Touch Pro for that setting. Anyone here know the specific registry settings?

As an alternative search the Kaiser forums, someone over there will have the details.
[XPERIA X1 General] Naffets:
My x1 does this anyway

After being on a call for around seven seconds, the screen locks and only activates again by pressing power, hang up or answer call (Green/pickup)

No idea if this is intended...but its certainly a good idea.
[XPERIA X1 General] emwdava:
I found this over at the Kaiser forum: S2U2

This app has the screenlock/screenpoweroff feature among others. Check it out. It's free too!

Thank you for the replies!
[XPERIA X1 General] Keland44:
would this work on the x1 i know it only supports qvga and vga devices i'm not sure if AC's released a version compatible with wvga phones yet if so this app is a must have
[XPERIA X1 General] emwdava:
I works on the X1, but sometimes the app fails to bring itself to the front. So it appears nothing happened when in fact the display is locked. This happens alot in landscape. To set things right again just go to portrait mode and tap the iLock icon twice (if it's already running it will shutdown itself, tap again and it starts).

EDIT!!

I found a fix for the landscape bug. Change display from direct draw to Raw Buffer.
[XPERIA X1 General] Kevin_seymer:
Mine does the same, it turns off and I must press the power button to activate again..
[XPERIA X1 General] Paitor:
I think that S2U2 was fun for a while but nothing more than that. What i wan't is something that uses the standard lock activated by the "No"-key and turns it on automatic. Dosen't some other WM phone have these issues?
[XPERIA X1 General] sthoeft:
Thanks, got the same Problem and this solved it!

[XPERIA X1 General] soupanoodle:
Hi fotoingo,

This is just what I needed - thanks.

As a non dev and just returning to WinMo after a long absence, please can you advise how I would get the hard keys on the X1 to work during a call and just disable the touchscreen?

Thanks
[XPERIA X1 General] smaberg:
for all s2u2 fanatics out there. run the version 1.22 its the most stable for X1 and disable backligt check and direct draw off, never hangs or anything at all.

there are better solutions for win mo phones then s2u2, otherwise buy an iphone... :D

[Motorola Edge 20 Pro] creative177:
Hello,

Have any of you encountered a hard plastic back case somewhere? The phone is terribly slippery, and the original silicone TPU case, like others made of this material, is just awful. Plus there's this rubber edge around the whole screen, the fingerprint reader doesn't connect in 50% of attempts because it's surrounded by this case. I'm from Poland, I couldn't find such a case anywhere, even on AliExpress. From Spigen company I got information that they are in the process of developing for this model. I dream of a case similar to "Thin Fit" from Spigen for Galaxy S10, it withstood 2 years of extreme use.

No face plant protection on that one...

You a good retaining system like a clip on polycarbonate shell that goes around the inner liner for multiple impact drops.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Airtioteclint:
It just stopped turning on and everytime I tried, I got a toast that said to try again after reattaching the dual screen. This only temporarily fixed it and after a few times of reattaching it the phone doesn't even recognize the case anymore.

The magnetic charging still works.

Anybody encounter this or know how to fix?
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Airtioteclint:
Something else. I've had massive battery drain since my dual screen stopped working. At a rate of 6-7% an hour without usage. I have to recharge it twice a day once in the morning and once at night to keep it from dying on me (again without even using the phone). The battery usage only shows system as using battery.

Things I've tried.

1. Rebooting

2. Factory reset (retore with drive)

3. Factory reset (setting up from scratch)

4. Deleting LG message and installing textra. Deleting LG contacts and installing google contacts. Installing and using Google phone as default over LG.

None of these has worked. I'm wondering if it was due to the latest T-mobile update which i took a couple of weeks ago and only noticed it later.

Anybody on T-mobile having battery problem? Any suggestions?
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Danjen22:
I've had this too. Only thing I haven't tried is a hard reset (vol down + power button) but not sure if will work or not. It's annoying.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Danjen22:
Have tried a a hard reset and it‘s still happening. I think mine is a loose connection somewhere. It will stay on and play a movie all the way through if it’s left on the table but if I’m holding the phone while using it it will turn off. No idea if it’s fixable though?
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Airtioteclint:
So your problem didn't start after taking the latest T-mobile update then? Turning off while holding sounds bad i hope you can get it figured out.

Now I'm convinced mine had something to do with the dual screen case. It started right after my dual screen case stopped working. I'm guessing it loosened the usb connector or maybe something from the magnet charging adapter itself.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Danjen22:
I'm in the UK. My problems started after I upgraded to android 10. It worked flawlessly up until then. I then updated to android 11 hoping that might solve the problem but it didn't. I'm now thinking it's a fault with the screen after it played the whole of the eternals film without turning off as it was sat on the table and not touched. As soon as I try and do something with it while holding it, it turns off, but there's no specific time limit. Sometimes it's on for 20 minutes before it turns off, sometimes it's 20 seconds.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] dc7os:
Hi,

perhaps there's a very simple answer to my question. After booting my DIAMOND, there's the original dialpad for a very short time. I couldn't enter the pin. Then it shows "network unreachable". Ok, without Pin, it's ok. But why i can't enter my pin after booting?

CU, dc7os
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] rumpleforeskin:
im not sure if the problem i have is related, but about 50% of the time when i reboot the phone it goes to windows home screen without asking for a PIN.

It does not load TF3D its just a plane black today screen with calander at the bottom.

If i go comm manager and turn off then on "phone" or "airplane mode" this forces the device to ask for the PIN

after successful PIN entry the phone works as normal!!! bizzare

This has happened with every ROM i have tried so i can only assume its a problem with my device or the 3rd party software i introduce to it after i flash the ROM.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] ZuinigeRijder:
I have this too. But I just press the "Phone call" hardware button and then the screen where you can enter the PIN appears.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] dc7os:
Ok, that works, but my question is: why it shows the screen "Enter pin" and i can't entering it?

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] d0x360:
On my note 10+ and wife's S10+I had an app that could disable services and receivers inside an app BUT I can't remember what it's called or where I downloaded it. Also it worked without root! I used it along side package disabler pro.

Anyone know what app I'm talking about because I'd love to have it again.

One example of something fantastic it let me do was use Nova Launcher (OneUI always runs in BG) and then I'd go into OneUI and disable everything I didn't need and it helped save battery. I basically just left the app switch function(service) working because for some reason OneUi controls that instead of Android itself.

Thanks in advance

Good morning, I'm fixing my daughter's vivo v17 pro. Forgot her screen lock password. The phone doesn't have a forgot password option and Google's find my phone was not activated. USB debugging isn't enabled. What utility tool should I use? Thank you very much!
[General Questions and Answers] kellystams:

[General Questions and Answers] ciyan38284:
You may require to do factory reset your phone. It will remove password and data.
[General Questions and Answers] docraymund:
Thank you, I tried clear data option but it again asks for the password. USB debugging isn't enabled and google account was signed out before. I read that if you enter fastboot mode, USB debugging is not needed? But I ran it on windows 10 and I can't find it on device manager. It only shows up on devices and printers as an unspecified device when it is powered on.
[General Questions and Answers] docraymund:
Thanks, what tool is it? SDK tools? Do I have to tear it down to get to the edl test points or will minimal adb and fastboot work?

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] JOSHSKORN:
T-mobile USA user here...

I'm not asking for general software updates, here. I know after Android 10 AND UI 2.5, we're pretty much done in terms of getting updates in that respect.

Will we be receiving any security updates still or is that it? If not, then I might just end up jumping ship and purchasing the S22 Ultra.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Akhil99:
Note9 is still a decent phone, but if you're into latest software jump ship and get a better phone. S22 Ultra is pretty solid depending on what you want it for. Just wait for the whole launch.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] jsusang:
@JOSHSKORN

What is the latest update you have received?

I received the update from November 2021 this morning on an unlocked N9.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] JOSHSKORN:
Baseband version: N960USQS9FUG2

Security Patch Level: August 1, 2021

Just ran a check for updates, and I'm apparently up-to-date.

Regarding locked/unlocked...I'm guessing I'm "locked", as in I know there are two different meanings to it. I bought mine at the T-mobile Store, not form Samsung directly. My bootloader is NOT unlocked and I am NOT rooted.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] jsusang:
I guess your phone is carrier locked? I was lucky, and won my N9 from a contest held by Samsung Mobile on Twitter.

Maybe T-Mobile has not released the December update yet? I hope you receive it soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] JOSHSKORN:
"Quarterly" updates for security and not Monthly? Ouch. So what you're telling me is, I might get one more update for security but it's anyone's guess as to when it'll drop for me. Has there been any official word when security updates will stop?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] JOSHSKORN:
@Arobase40 what I'm getting from your comment is, start looking for a new device. OS updates ended after 3 years (I knew that already) and security updates will end after 4 years, leaving my device potentially vulnerable to any new leaks found.

I'm also under the impression that device compatibility with apps may start becoming an issue, due to the lack of ability to upgrade past Android 10.

I guess I'm ok with it, my phone has been running slow the last few months, anyways. Well, normally it runs fine but in some situations, it'll lag. Mainly in Android Auto Wireless and using the Your Phone app on my PC.

It would be great to find a new device as big (or bigger) than the Note 9, with a stylus, whereas someone makes a battery as large as the ZeroLemon battery for the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] koragg97:
If you want new features that are not available on the Note9, buy a new phone. But please don't just buy a new phone only because of the security updates lol If you're happy with your Note9 keep it (like me). I don't care about security updates and the features it has are enough for me. Also if you want Android 11 and OneUI 3.1.1 features you may wanna have a look at Noble ROM: https://xdaforums.com/t/noble-rom-1...-11-2021-sm-n960f-fd-n-sm-g96xf-fd-n.4244747/

Overall, just don't change phone only because of security updates.
