[Touch Pro, Fuze General] fuybjeans:
I'm up and down with this phone. I use a custom rom and I have little issues with the software and it's responsiveness. Little things here and there, but those will be resolved eventually.

My problem is with the hardware. I'm unhappy with the quality of the sliding mechanism and the cheap back battery cover. I've had 2 of these phones in the past week and the first one had play when the keyboard was exposed, and the one I have now has a lot of slop when it's closed. When I use the on screen keyboard, you can hear and feel the 2 halves slapping against each other. (and no, I'm not pressing hard). That's just not acceptable.

The back battery cover is just cheap. Not sure why they designed in the 3 point diamond thing, but you can't utilize the phone on a table because it's constantly rocking back and forth. Just annoying.

I'm taking this phone back one more time for another Fuze, and if the sliding mechanism still gives me problems, I'm going to get my money back and wait for the HD. Can't screw up that sliding mechanism! :)

Despite those 2 problems, I do love the phone. Great sound quality, quality speaker, blue tooth range is awesome, and touch screen works great.

D-Pad Thoughts

Not sure of the issue everyone is complaining about, from what I have determined with my Fuze. If I ignore the fancy stuff and just use it as a normal d-pad (center = action & the for points just outside the ring pressed = direction) have been working just fine for me. Granted I have been running the stock att rom to get my performance baseline (sans the bloatware, only installed TF3D & removed the tabs I don't use).

Cheers

Had mine a week Tuesday. MUCH improved over the Tilt. Screen switches

between landscape/portrait better. Screen is sharper/brighter. Keyboard is better, menus faster. The only "bug" would be the 3G/H problem. Until someone gets a concrete fix, you have to manually hack it if you soft boot.

Battery life improved over the tilt
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] spaghetti_monster:
Yeah ive had it for 2 days now. Stock rom because im prob gona return it.

I have an issue with the carrier not the phone >_<.

Poor service no 3g in the middle of a 3g area 1 bar edge or DATA ROAMING!!! ... so yeah ill prob just go back to verizon unless there touch pro sucks.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] DrunkenOstrich:
I am highly satisfied with certain aspects of this phone.

And highly disappointed with other, more important aspects, like the basic functionality of being a smartphone.

I get very weak signal where other phones get full bars.

But the worst issue, is I can't get anywhere close to 3G speeds, even when I'm showing 3 or 4 bars 3G. Connections constantly just time out.

And why the hell doesn't Gmail just work normal like it does on my Blackjack II?

The 3G is the main deal breaker for me. I'm not worried about getting H, just want freaking 3G!! I can swap my SIM out and into my BJ II or even my old Moto V3XX and get very fast data speeds, and the Fuze get like 140 kbit/sec. Not acceptable. Probably going back. Scared to flash a new ROM because I heard the stock ROMs just hang when you try to reflash them back to your phone (for returning). Can anyone verify that?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] bani1:

Tethering works just fine for me. However, I have tethering on my account.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] gboybama:
The battery life seems atrocious. I've got my Advanced Config set to disconnect a data connection after 1 minute, but I can't get a full charge to last more than about 7 hours with "H" enabled.

Wi-Fi and Bluetooth disabled. Automatic weather update disabled. G-Mail synch every 30 minutes. Maybe 30 minutes of music player usage, 30 minutes of internet and about 15 minutes of talking in that 7 hours.

Then, it takes me about four hours to fully recharge.

Is this kind of performance normal? Am I doing something wrong? Trying Edge only today, to see if it makes a difference.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] jwb1969:
My issue is with the h/w

The Fuze is much snappier than the Tilt and sharper looking.

My gripe is the annoying left and right d-pad buttons. You have to push in EXACTLY the right spot or it doesn't work. That was a poor design.

:(
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] laakness:
I'm in Edge only and on that same usage but with auto weather update I'm only using 40% of the battery in 12 hours. I keep the screen at half brightness but I do not auto disconnect data either.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] p51d007:
Long recharge time, for me, personally, is a good thing.

I have a mobile cradle, so throughout the day, it gets a little charge during the

day. The problem with a fast recharge time, is usually it heats up the battery,

decreasing the life of the battery.

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] meijerbrantm:
So, I'm using a Verizon XV6800. I have DCD 3.3.4 and Radio 3.42.50 on it. No GPS satellites every triger when using something like "GPS Viewer."

So i saw http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=VerizonAGPSFix

now, I was willing to try it, but none of the links work. So, what am I to do?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] BillThyCat:
Did you try installing the stock rom (pre MR1) first? If your phone came with MR1 and then you flashed to DCD it will not work. You must flash back to an older Verizon stock rom, and then update to DCD.

Also check your location settings, and verify that your GPS settings are set to Com4 and hardware Com0 or None, some work with one or the other.

Hi,

I have 5G private network and doing some handset testing I've found that the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G doesn't connect or register 5GC. Does anyone have test with 5G private network. Could you give a solution for it.

I appreciate this might not be the correct place for this question but am at a bit of a loss and any help or insight would be greatly received.

Thanks.
[Google Pixel 6] akafaka:
Hi all! I am writing this text through a translator since I myself am in Russia. There is no information in my region

on my problem, so I decided to turn to all the participants in this forum with a request for help.

My Pixel 6 has been constantly glitching and freezing since the first day I bought it.

enjoy

it is almost impossible for them, the phone freezes for 10-15 seconds with almost any action, for example, I go into the camera and wait 30 seconds for it to work normally, while the longer I use the phone, the less it bugs.

I rolled back from 13 beta to 12 android under the beta testing opt-out program, but this did not solve the problem. I suspect a hardware problem, not software.

Any thoughts on this?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the answer!

I already flashed the phone using ADB, the situation has not changed.

Regarding the poor translation, I know, on my own I write in the most accessible Russian language, then I paste it into Google translator, and it translates into a language that is not clear to you.
[Google Pixel 6] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
I've not encountered this at all, but based upon the video and your description it does appear to be a hardware issue. You may want to contact Google, assuming of course that Google is still conducting business in Russia given current events.

Я не сталкивался с этим вообще, но на основании видео и вашего описания это, похоже, аппаратная проблема. Вы можете связаться с Google, если, конечно, Google все еще ведет бизнес в России, учитывая текущие события.
[Google Pixel 6] nutzfreelance:
if a factory reset and using it with nothing installed has the same issue, you need to warranty it with google
[Google Pixel 6] akafaka:
Google doesn't work in Russia, and besides, I live in the Crimea, we don't have a Google representative office and all Google services are blocked.

So I can't get the phone back under warranty.

The Pixel has recently become much less slow after I started using it as my main phone.

The longer I use the pixel, the less slows down and lags the phone, it happens that the lag disappear at all, but not for a long time.

I agree with the opinion that the problem of hardware, it is a pity that in our country it does not even have spare parts and qualified professionals to be able to apply for paid repair.

I still will not stop loving their smartphones, even after getting into trouble for $ 400.

I will order another one of the same, maybe this time I will have more luck.

I hate hate hate Windows 10, and don't even ask me about Windows 11. Unfortunately that's what all new laptops come pre-installed with. I love my current laptop but it is just slowly breaking, the USB ports are erratic, the Wi-Fi drops, and sometimes it bluescreens and crashes in the middle of a session (hardware error). I found a seller who says that she can install Windows 8.1 on a new laptop for me, but I'm doubtful if it will work. The hardware may not be supported. The laptop is a 2021 model, I copy & paste the description she sent below:

DELL Inspiron 16-5625-R1705S AMD Barcelo R7-5825U/16GB DDR4 3200MHz (8Gx2)/512GB SSD/16.0" (1920x1200) 16:10 WVA LCD Narrow HD Anti-Glare 60Hz

I really like the AMD Ryzen mobile CPU. I also like the full-size laptop, I need a workstation not just a media consumption device. Is installing Windows 8.1 fresh from CDs going to work on a 2021 laptop like this?
[Off-topic] Alex Zander-kun:
It should as far as I'm aware. The only concern is the drivers though highly likely it can work
[Off-topic] KashiNEC:
Windows 8.1 cant be run on any newer laptop. I tried on multiple cheap laptops from 2018 to 2020 and all of them give bluescreen. Maybe with some patches it can work
[Off-topic] notm3x:
I'm not sure if it will run perfectly, because driver support and windows 8.1 will also be closed by windows in about 1 year. I think maybe you can adjust some settings on windows 10, like download drivers on the official website, check whether there is a virus or not, etc.

In TF3D scroll over to Settings, select Communications, and turn off "Data Connection".

Also under settings, go to Data and unselect "download weather automatically"

To be completely sure you can install Nodata which is a program that blocks data connections

[Touch Pro CDMA] muzicman82:
I'm wondering if anyone has gotten Windows Media Player on WM 6.1 to play FLAC. Will it do WMA Lossless?
[Touch Pro CDMA] nikonmikon:
I am curious if WMA lossless works on the touch pro 2 also.
[Touch Pro CDMA] SwampNutz:
Windows Media Player on the Touch Pro will play them just fine, with album art as well! I can't see Microsoft removing WMA lossless support from WinMo, so it should work on the TP2, especially since the TP2 ships with WinMo 6.1 Pro.

<mini_rant>

I personally hate using my HTC TP for music but it gets the job done when I'm not carrying my iPod Touch:

Copy music to SDMicro card -fine

Launch media player - ok, I have a shortcut for that so it's one tap after unlocking.

Manually trigger library update which is not fast (only for new music)

Make sure that it's set to use the storage card. (Yup, more than one Library)

Navigate through the lists - Not bad but damn it's ugly and text only.

Select what you want - No no no! No multi select for you! Queue it up one by one! And that requires highlighting the track, tap the Menu list then tap Queue.

Press play (That's right, you can't double tap or hold for a context menu, etc)

No real way to quickly get back to the Media Player if you wander out of the player to do something else.

</mini_rant>

You can do a simple test by taking a music file and converting it to WMA lossless then copy the file to your phone and play it back.

I think there is a tiny buffering issue because I notice that lossless tracks have a tendancy to skip once in a while. It's not constant but it is annoying sometimes for me when I have it connected to my car stereo and I'm rockin out. All of a sudden, there's that split second pause that takes me out of my groove. It has happened on different tracks so I can't say it's the files themselves.
[Touch Pro CDMA] nikonmikon:
Nice! I just put a WMAL file on my phone and it plays natively. Awesome. Do you have any suggestions on how to batch convert wave files to WMAL? Windows Media Encoder is a pain.... Perhaps I dont know how to use it properly.

[Realme GT 2 Pro] themagicalmage22:
I just got the Realme GT 2 Pro after replacing my 3 year old Xiaomi one. I want to use this new phone for at least 5 years, and I've been learning ways to help the battery not die quickly. I've learned to charge the phone until 80% and I've been doing that for a week and a few days now. It does annoy me that the battery feels weak since I am missing 20% charge. I'm contemplating to just charge it normally, but on a 10W charger rather than the 65W charger it has. Should I continue charging it up to 80% or just use it normally?
[Realme GT 2 Pro] Quake94:
20-80% is best but decay is inevitable

You could probably get AccA and set a charging cap.

https://github.com/MatteCarra/AccA

If you look at charging chart, the OS keeps battery at around 75% overnight

Down the road, replacing battery does not seem hard.

[Realme GT 2 Pro] shadow78:
I cannot see the point of this, and with all respect I doubt this phone would be worth using after 5 years. More likely will not get any security updates by then and I dont think it will have much custom support either. On the other hand the manufacturers just sh1thing out 100s of phones a year, god knows what phones we would have in 5 years time, but for example I wouldn't want to use an old Sami S8 or 9 as my daily phone.

It is a good device and I like its battery life. I use it as a secondary phone therefore I share the battery usage with my other phone. In my usage I get a day and a half or 2 days out and would still have around 30-35% left. That's when I normally charge my phones, never let it discharge totally. I have seen in some articles that some experts don't recommend charging it over 80% due to the quicker wear of the battery. Honestly I cannot back this up.

There are a few things however what I can.

Do not charge when the phone is in use, like you have a long gaming session and you charge at the same time. The heat is the biggest enemy of the battery and charging and intensively using the phone at the same time could cause quicker wear out.

The second thing I never do is plug it up to charge overnight. With the quick charge tech this device has, its not even needed because its charges up in around 30mins for me. As soon as charged I disconnect. I noticed on my older iPhone when I charged it overnight, it caused quicker wear.

The above is my experience had over the years using several smartphones, but I hope it helps. Or just good luck using your GT2 pro in 5 years time :D

[ASUS ZenFone 8] MarkMRL:
I have noticed that the fingerprint sensor on this phone is such a piece of ****. After enrolling my fingerprints as usual, the dumb thing unlocked like twice out of ten tries, it made me so mad. This is what I did to get it to work decently.

When enrolling your fingerprint, make sure to

- don't press on the screen, place it as delicate as an angel's kiss

- try to get as many angles as possible, even following the animation when angling your finger

- also try to get it to record your finger perpendicular to the sensor like in this emoji 👇

When unlocking, make sure to

- Try to center your finger as much as possible with the white circle on the display

- If it doesn't unlock right away, keep your finger there for a couple of seconds. Sometimes it does not unlock immediately

Enroll your main unlock finger twice! This is very important to get it to record as much info on each fingerprint as possible. My thumbs are my main unlocking fingers so I enrolled each one twice. Another trick that helped me was to enroll one finger in normal phone holding position, and the other one in more unusual positions like upside down, with the phone flat on a table, and so on). This wasted 4 out of 5 slots though, only one slot is left for a backup finger.

If you apply a screen protector, delete all your fingerprints and enroll them again using the aforementioned tricks.

After doing this it's almost as reliable as a normal fingerprint scanner. Reliability improved from 2\10 to 8\10.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] D-IMAN:
I discovered an interesting thing with the scanner.

I tried to add a finger, the scanner was very reluctant and tried to count it for a long time. Well, in the future it was very bad at recognizing it when unlocking (yes, one might say, it practically didn’t recognize it)...

I did the following: I breathed on the place where the scanner was, wiped it, wet my finger, the result was that the finger was counted without any problems (and I added the same finger 3 times), and for about 5 days it basically unlocked it with virtually no problems.

Well, yes, considering that we have a crappy scanner installed, sometimes it doesn’t read, sometimes it takes a long time to read, but compared to a dry finger - heaven and earth! 😊

Please can you elaborate for the ones that don't know what it is?
[XPERIA X1 General] scotjen1:
Basically it is a software package that shrinks the resolution of the screen so its allows for extra space 4 times the size if i am correct.

Be warned though it is not completly compatible with WM6.1 as there are a few bugs but it is very good for internet surfing.

When using Android Auto, there is a notable audio degrade from when I used my Samsung S20. Almost like going form a CD to an AM radio difference......Why would this happen? Does the Pixel lower the quality because of the disconnecting issue?

On a side note.... I've tried 4 different cables and this last one, a cheapie from Wal-Mart, hasn't disconnected me in a few days.
