[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] SEHoldOver:
Is it on the list of compatible devices? My Xperia XA2 Ultra (H3223) is 4G LTE compatible (though it lacks two of AT&Ts lesser-used LTE bands,) and supports VoLTE which is listed as a requirement. However, after filing a complaint with the FCC and BBB, AT&T higher-up made contact with me and we had an in-depth conversation regarding my phone. I also had a candid conversation with Sony. AT&T refuses to say how it determined my XA2 Ultra would "cause problems" on the network, a tech on a prior call told me that AT&T was actively denying support for 4G LTE phones which do not support 5G, and Sony confirmed that its techs had worked with AT&T on testing and AT&T was deliberately dropping support for many compatible devices.

To be fair, this is not just AT&T. T-Mobile also told me that it would not support my XA2 Ultra.

I have since traded my Xperia XA2 Ultra up for a 1iii. Good luck with your troubles. I just looked up your phone specs and I suspect you are caught in this bullsnot, too. I would file a complaint with the FCC. I think the more of us that do regarding our otherwise compatible phones, the better.

BTW, this is not new to me. A few years ago I found that my C905a, which is a 3G phone and used to be sold by AT&T, did not have its IMEI listed as an AT&T-issued phone. Which is was not, as I imported it from Rogers. But 3G phones not in AT&T's database were assumed to be 2G. Thus I had issues from time-to-time, but I could call to get it fixed. This ended when I put a logic board with an AT&T IMEI the black phone body. AT&T is doing it again with 4G phones, but is being far more aggressive as pushes 5G as hard as it can.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] Steve Harvey:
The ASUS ROG II is not on any of their lists.

This has been a really good phone other than trying to get parts from ASUS.

I planned to buy a ROG 5 but not so sure.

Their solution is to sell you a new iPhone.

I brought 2 phones to the store one a Motorola and before they knew what they were they were giving the bad news.

I am not new to XDA
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] SEHoldOver:
When I looked up your phone, I was taken aback. Only just released in September of 2019, and not inexpensive at the time. Plus the specs on it are really, really intense. I only paid $150 for my XA2 Ultra used, so having to essentially throw that out was painful, but I did get something in return. I just hope people getting caught up in this stupid fight with AT&T are not losing a lot of money just because the expensive phone they purchased does not support 5G.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] Steve Harvey:
$899 is not a cheap phone.

Very high end specs.

I have 2 iPads and an Android tablet.

My wife has an iPhone and I am the support person for that device.

I am committed to Android.

My backup phone is a Motorola Power G phone $199.

Good phone no where near as good as ROG II but I can use the phone function.

I wish ASUS would be more proactive with the carriers and parts support.

I couldn't recommend their stuff to a non tech person.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] Steve Harvey:
It has now been a week since AT&T decided my ROG II is a 3G Phone.

My tech request was supposed to escalated to a senior tech.

No response from AT&T as of 02/28/2022
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] Steve Harvey:
From ASUS on 02-28-2022

Regrettably Steve we would not have information regarding at&t and their services. Regarding any discontinued service you would be required to speak to at&t regarding their service. If they have a upgrade done and the device in question is not compatibly with the upgrade regrettably their would not be anything that we can do as this would be a decision made by at&t.

It is very hard to recommend ASUS phone products as good as they are.

I asked ASUS support many times if there were other ROG II customers with the same issue.

He never would answer.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] Steve Harvey:
AT&T February 2022 3G Shutdown

Compatibility Chart, see attached.

ASUS ROG II Phone will no longer work on AT&T according to a senior support supervisor.

4G Data and Text are not effected and continue to work.

HD Voice on the ROG II seems to be the issue.

ASUS Support offered no help or any information.

ASUS had no information about possible phone updates.

Many phones and brands are effected by the AT&T 3G shutdown.

T-Mobile has their 3G shutdown planned for mid summer 2022.

My ASUS ROG II has been a great phone it is a shame to throw a 3 yr old $900 phone in the old cellphone box.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] Steve Harvey:
ASUS just updated the ROG II to Android 11 about a week before AT&T dropped it.

ASUS seems clueless, customers found out their phones were worthless when they couldn't make a call.

Reply from ASUS supervisor

Thank you for contacting ASUS Product Support.

My name is Damion F. and it's my pleasure to help you with your problem.

This is a follow-up regarding your previous chat interaction with the agent, Morice C.

Base on your survey response we are aware that you are not pleased and we are reaching out to you with extended support.

We are aware that your phone will no longer work with the AT&T network.

We are sorry for the inconvenience, yes AT&T upgrade their system causing some models to no longer be compatible with their network.

The models are as follows that will still work on the network. ZS661KS/ZS673KS/ZS676KS/ZS590KS/ZS675KW

Please view the link below to get more information on the new system.

https://www.att.com/support/article/wireless/KM1324171/ .

We are truly sorry you had to experience this and it is beyond our control that AT&T decides to upgrade its Network plan.

We recommend reaching out to the team therefore more information on the network compatibility and requirements.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] Steve Harvey:
I asked ASUS if they had a trade up program like Samsung since life of this ROG II phone was short.

ASUS is the 5th largest manufacturer of their type in the world.

They chose not to include the coming band changes into their phone.

It is all AT&T's fault.

I am no cheerleader for AT&T I am stuck here do to owned devices and travel locations.

Here is ASUS response 03-03-2022.

I understand a trade would seem great for you based on the criteria.

Regrettably, ASUS does not have the process to offer.

Also, the issue that stems to cause the phone to be incompatible is with the carrier making changes that are beyond ASUS control.

We really wish there were more we could do about this issue.

However, AT&T decides to change its Network settings and features.

Once they decide to remove the device from their platform based on hardware, we are unable to make changes.

I moved my Vista Task bar to the vertical right hand side of the screen today and noticed that youtube and BBC videos bennefit greatly from that extra bit of screen height. Yet I actually prefer the task bar to be hoizontal along the bottow of the screen. Decision decisions...

So I would love to hear your thoughts; which Taskbar setting do use/prefer? Horizontal or Vertical? Always On top or hidden?

I guess this is also an oppertunitiy to include a picture of your desktop (fuzzing out anything that is personal of course).
[Shift General] Pfeffa-rah:
Hi,

For Firefox there is a plug-in called Full Screen that switches it to full screen and back with a small icon (so, no need for F12 key). When I use that it also uses the space normally occupied by the taskbar.

I did have the taskbar at the left-hand-side for a while, but I didn't like it.

greetz,

Hey guys,

first of all I'm only posting here because for some reason I can't post on the Questions section.

Unfortunately I miss-clicked the lock oem after I had it unlocked. Now my phone says its corrupt. I managed to enter into fastboot again. But now I cant flash anything because it says Boot / flash / not allowed in Lock State.

Please guys what to do , because all data is on that phone. please help.
[OnePlus 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] gillim74:
Boot into bootloader and reunlock it
[OnePlus 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] lucasluize:
Can't. Lock State can't use command oem unlock as well. I'm trying using the MSM tool now fingers crossed
[OnePlus 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] bigdaddysuede:
Are you on stock oxygen? Are you able to use the stock recovery to factory reset? You unlocked the bootloader using something other than command prompt/platform tools?
[OnePlus 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] VampireHeart:
Download msm download tool, Qualcomm drivers and use it, you can find all into guide section.
[OnePlus 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] lucasluize:
Thank you. Managed to do it! It was a bit hard finding the right driver. But in the end worked.

[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Motorolalover:
So probably few of you already know that S22U is using a x axis motor instead of z-axis. This new motor is used to enhance the haptic feedback, however this has reduced the vibration intensity on the device. I got the device last day and was driving with device in my pocket on vibration mode. I missed notifications and calls for an urgent situation as the vibration was so soft and i didn't noticed it. Luckily i had old s8+ on me where i got notified.

My situation doesn't allow me to have a ringer on all the time. I am now thinking of returning the device just because of this. I really loved everything else on this device. Sad to see that samsung engineers screwed this up. No more pre orders going forward. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] freebee269:
The vibration motor doesn't really bother me. I am able to feel whenever it goes off in my pocket. And I don't wear skinny jeans lol. Maybe you would be happier with a Motorola since you are a Motorola lover?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] busterbrown73:
I'm experiencing the same with my s22 ultra. I'm coming from a S20 plus which the vibration alone could be used as an alarm clock. Definitely disappointing, considering how much of an upgrade this phone is.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] freebee269:
I remember when the s21 came out and reviewers were complaining that the motor was too strong when it was laying down on a table. It was too loud. Now they make a motor that's quieter and now people complain that it's too quiet. It's a rough business
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Phredeee:
Seems to me to be why there is a setting to adjust the strength to one's personal likes. The issue is it only goes so high. I agree with the OP. I noticed it being weaker despite being set wide open.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Motorolalover:
Nah.. i ain't happy with motorola anymore.. there was a time. Anyhow.. good for you if you don't find vibration an issue. But it certainly is much more weak. If S21U had strong vibration.. people had option to dial it down.. Here the problem is weak and we don't have an option to increase it, unless samsung does some sort of firmware upgrade to increase intensity further.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Guyinlaca:
A reviewer noted that they're using a different vibration motor this year. It's definitely less strong and there was mention that it moves in a different direction than previous models.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] tim84us:
is not a sex toy okay? :)
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] onkelfeix:
Haha, for that price tag, I want it to be one though!

Have my 22 Ultra for a week now.... had to change the vibration to another pattern, otherwise I wouldn't recognize it at all..... that a major downgrade from my old S20 6.1".

People shouldn't call this an improvement at all, thats some kind of fanboysm.

Vibrations purpose is to quietly inform you that you are receiving a call or message, if that does work worse than before, bad decisions have been made.

I still have the possibility to just enable notification vibration on my Galaxy Watch4 , but this comes at the cost of enabling this for every damn notification (teams, telegram, whatsapp.... ) and you know that this is draining the battery pretty fast.... especially if you have friends that spam every now and then...
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] dia_naji:
Samsung implemented the x-axis in the most terrible way. Hopefully Samsung can fix this via an update, but highly doubt it since it's most likely the hardware.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] eaoosa:
I actually love the refined feel to the motor. It feels great in the hand.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Motorolalover:
only when its in hand.. if its in your pocket..(specially with loose pants / jackets ) .. you won't even feel the vibration and will miss notifications & calls !
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Motorolalover:
samsung posted an update on the issue -

Why the vibration mode does not work properly on Galaxy S22 Series?

[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] e30power:
the vibraton is to low since s6 edge, on note 20 ultra i dont notice any message and on s22 ultra it is more less as before , i ask me why samsung not remove the motor, because for this low intensity it is as it has no motor,

i make it with soundmanager of goodlook app, with custom vibration and make a pattern very long so it's a little pit better, maybe someone make a app like light flow to set a costume vibraton for every app

why they build in so a less motor? they can build in a stronger and more options to set the intensity,
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] hthiengo:
Coming from an s21u I definitely feel the difference in the vibration intensity as well. In my case, what "solved" this issue for me was pairing my s22u with a samsung smartwatch. That way I can feel the notifications vibrations in my arm and never miss it. I know it's not a solution for everyone, but it worked for me at least..
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] TofuVic:
Hi. I received my Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra 5G smartphone, which I ordered from Samsung.com (I chose the T-Mobile version when ordering). After turning on the phone for the first time, at the Welcome screen, when I click the Start button, I get the message, "Insert SIM card from your service provider for network service."

I can't find a way to bypass this message. I was initially thinking if I could connect to my WiFi, it'd go away, but there's absolutely no way to connect to WiFi or access any settings.

I upgrade my smartphones every 15 months and have had T-Mobile for nearly a decade, and this is the first time I've seen such a thing during setup. I like to keep my SIM card in my current smartphone until the new one is fully set up, at which point I would transfer the SIM card over. I have a lot of services I use that rely on SIM card (i.e., not fully cloud-based and are tied to the SIM card), and not having that service during setup may be an issue. Also, I have received brand new phones that have had issues in the past (e.g., poor battery life, screen problems), so I'd rather fully test the new phone before transferring my SIM over.

The workaround I thought of: Put in a temporary T-Mobile SIM card, just to complete the setup process. Once setup has completed, I'll put my actual SIM card into the phone, or have T-Mobile transfer my phone number to the new SIM card. Thoughts?

Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] freebee269:
It's because you got the T-Mobile phone so it wants you to connect to the network first before using it or continuing with setup. A way to get around that is to install the u1 firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Da_G:
IIRC you can hold the volume down button for 5 seconds at the sim required screen to bypass the requirement. There's a help article somewhere that documents this.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] SloPoke23:
As far as I know, Samsung requiring a SIM card during initial setup has been around for a long time. Nothing to do with your carrier. Even my unlocked phone from Samsung required a SIM card on first boot before continuing. There are of course ways around that, but beware. I bypassed the SIM card requirement setting up my S21 Ultra and spent a day configuring it to my liking. Then I popped the SIM card in from my old phone and it caused a factory reset erasing all my hard work. Probably because my carrier wanted to install all their software and settings. Not saying the same thing will happen to you, but just something to be aware of.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Da_G:
Here is the link to the eSIM setup (bypass SIM requirement)

SIM card & eSIM

The SIM card is your device's ticket to the T-Mobile network! Learn how to buy one, install or replace it, and change or activate a SIM card/eSIM.

www.t-mobile.com

Sticking a SIM from another carrier after eSIM set up should not cause a hard reset under normal circumstances, it does cause a reboot into bootloader to deploy the new carrier specific customizations from cache, but this is supposed to be transparent to user data. It broke if it caused a hard reset ;\
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] TofuVic:
Technically, this worked, but this burned me badly. I appreciate the workaround, but I highly recommend against it. See below.

This is exactly what happened to me on the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra. This is literally the most annoyed I have ever been at an electronic consumer device.

I spent over 21 hours over the span of 6 days setting up the phone. I put in the SIM card and was presented with a message stating, "SIM card detected. Restart your phone to start using your new SIM card." I could not use the phone at all, so my only option was to restart. After I hit the Restart button, the phone restarted. For less than 3 seconds, it showed a black screen with a small Android logo, with the small text "Erasing." Then the phone started up and everything is as if it's a brand new phone. Everything I've spent time working on is all gone.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Ljmagudelo:
Hello Team, important information, when it is asking for the carrier sim card, you need press volumen up + volumen down + power button at the same time for few seconds, then it will say a message like "Unlocked" then proceed with the first configuration.

This is for people who is going to use with a different provided, please let me know if you heard or read this info in another link (because i did not find that)
[MX Player] Alphas:
I have a network folder on the Asus router with IP address 192.168.1.1, and the files are located in the download\complete subfolder.

While I could add the network 192.168.1.1 with share path "download", it cannot accept "download\complete" as the shared path. I have tried different ways to key the shared path, eg "\download\complete", "/download/complete" and "download/complete", none seems to work.

Am I missing out something? How can I add a sub-folder in the shared path?

Does anyone know of an application similar to the new AroundMe app for the iPhone. If you haven't seen it, http://www.tweakersoft.com/mobile/aroundme.html . Please let me know if anyone can think of anything.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] dieneverknowing:
Try GoogleMaps. Completely different interface but you can pinpoint your location and find businesses around you just as AroundMe seems to do.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] gsemaan:
Yea, I have google maps. But google maps doesn't already have existing categories, and AroundMe sorts people's favorites. Also, around me uses your existing location on GPS as the marker to search, which I really like.

On my A7 Lite is there a way to show the charging status and remaining time till full charge when the charger is plugged in?

When I'm charging my Samsung Galaxy S7+ or Samsung Z Flip 3 it shows "Fast Charging XX%" "Y hr and Z min remaining". If I double tap to show the Lock screen on the A7 Lite while charging it just shows "Fast Charging XX%".

The remaining time till full charge is really handy. Is there a way to display this also on the A7 Lite?

Three is such a stupid company with stupid uneducated staff. For the three days I ve been dealing with them it has been a nightmare.
