[Google Pixel 6 Pro] jericho246:
Hey there!

1. I am currently rooted and it still says Widevine L1 (checked with DRM Info app).

2. I don't think there's a phone that has easier bootloader unlocking/locking. :)

3. The Zephyrus custom ROM, which I currently use has Widevine L1 support. I don't know about other roms.

4. Haven't done that personally, I know GrapheneOS recommends locking the bootloader for better security, but I am pretty sure it doesn't have to be permanent, and it should be fairly easy to go back to the stock firmware. Just remember not to lock the bootloader while rooted, as that would brick your device and it probably wouldn't be easy to fix.

Hello. For exact instructions on how to unlock the bootloader, click the yellow "How-To Guide" quick filter at the top of the list of threads in this section. You'll see three or more guides that include the subject.
[OnePlus Nord CE 2] mbrancalion:
Hello everyone,

sorry if it's a common issue, here and not, but i can't find a way to do a thing i'm trying to do since months........

I bought 3-4 months ago a Nord CE 2 and i still haven't found a way for disabling the need to insert the pin when i turn it on, so it can connect to radio capability and all the connections.

I'm not talking about the sim block, but the entire connectivity. In my last phone (Lenovo P2) it was called "secure boot", and i disabled it.

I followed a tutorial for obtaining it: i removed the sequence pin, and re-setted it, but the option of disabling at boot what i need did not appear in my phone.

Any help or direction to follow?

Many thanks in advance.

Greetings.
[OnePlus Nord CE 2] ko_hi:
I'm not sure about what secure boot you're referring too
[OnePlus Nord CE 2] mbrancalion:
When i turn on my actual phone and the former one, you can only make emergency call and nothing else, until you insert the sequence pin. Then the phone unlock, and so the normal screen appear, data connection starts, etc.

With my former phone, the Lenovo, there was a way to disable this "secure boot mode", so when i turned on the phone it connected to the web, etc, for downloading messages, email etc, and only the screen remained blocked, as the normal behaviour when phone is already on.

I'd like to obtain this with the Oneplus, but i can't find a way. A maybe a way does not exist....
[OnePlus Nord CE 2] ko_hi:
Are you referring to sim pin

Just search sim card lock

If you mean

The extra security for the device (that breaks the decryption in custom recovery that might be called as you say) i haven't seen that option on this device
[OnePlus Nord CE 2] mbrancalion:
No, it's not the sim card pin. I always disable it, in all phones.

I'm started to think that, as you say, in the stock rom it's not possibile to disable it in the Nord.

BTW: this phone has too many things that i don't like. I strongly suspect that it will be my first and last oneplus phone........
[OnePlus Nord CE 2] ko_hi:
I don't think it's enabled at all
[OnePlus Nord CE 2] mbrancalion:
Sim card lock was enabled by default, as in all the phones i've seen.

I'm talking about another thing.

I'm very thankful for your replies, but they are not on topic.
[OnePlus Nord CE 2] immortalwon:
I think newer phones like my phone oneplus 9 pro and above - you cannot disable secure boot. If you boot into bootloader menu, you will see it say something like "SECURE BOOT - YES".

I believe qualcomm processors have it forcibly enabled.
[OnePlus Nord CE 2] mbrancalion:
I'm not going to mess up with unlocking it, etc.

I don't use Windows, too......

I'm starting to be very disappointed with this phone. I can't record calls...... It does not update.....Assistants at Oneplus go on replying to me uninformed and unuseful emails.
[OnePlus Nord CE 2] immortalwon:
I wouldn't unlock it either mainly because TWRP is not available for this oneplus nord ce 2 phone and rumors have it there is no known working MSM tool for this phone. Without proper safety measures, I would stay on stock.
[OnePlus Nord CE 2] ko_hi:
TWRP is available for Android 11.

And an update will come today or tomorrow for android 12.

regarding staying safe, i've found a way to be able to play it safe with this phone ;)
[OnePlus Nord CE 2] immortalwon:
TWRP may officially support A11, that does not mean it supports every device. If you go on official TWRP website, the device the OP is talking about is not on the supported list.
[OnePlus Nord CE 2] ko_hi:
Sorry i meant it is unofficially supported for our device, and by on A11 i didn't mean any other device then ours
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] buljo:
I have to ask you gurus.. this is getting annoying. i have one private sim, and one work sim.

i call and text with both depending if it is work related or not.

the way f.ex motorola/huawei handles dual sim is so much better, automatically using which sim i used last, for a call/text to a specific number.

but with samsung`s way of handling this, i have to edit each contact to select preferred sim to use.

am i missing something here?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] raul6:
Mine always uses /defaults to whatever sim i originally used to call a number. I can change to a different sims if I want but otherwise it just does it automatically
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] buljo:
i get a pop up asking wich sim to use?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] raul6:
Every time you make a call even to a number you called already on default sim? Are you using Samsung phone app?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] buljo:
yep, it was like that on my S20 FE also. every time i get a pop up asking which sim to use. i have to manually edit a contact to make it use the desired sim.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] haifish9999:
Try to use the TrueCaller application for default Call & SMS and it will stay with the simcard which one was the last used for both Call & SMS....mate.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ekerbuddyeker:
The way Samsung used to have the dialler was with two call.buttons, one for each sim. That was much better than today.
[Nothing Phone 1] RasmusKvanderLoo:
I have rooted my phone (un OS 1.0.2) now is should upgrade to 1.1.0 but the updates keeps stopping with somehing like 'A problem with the installation'.

Then I would like to try the adb sideload approch, but I found out the the phone will not enter Recovery mode correctly ( I get the 'no command' screen). How do I solved that?

When trying to look into the payload file for the 1.1.0 zip file, I can't see a recovery.img is that correct?

[Realme GT Master Edition] TheShadowOfAGhost20:
Hi! i've bought a Realme GT Master Edition just recently and have these VERY IMPORTANT questions regarding my phone's warranty. the warranty comes from a third party company and lasts 18 months.

this phone is the best phone i could buy with my money, but the realme is not much known in my country, most stores don't have smartphones made by this company and repair shops don't have these phones' spare parts, and smartphones are ridiculously expensive here, so i can't easily ignore this warranty and am looking for a way to do my thing without being caught by the warranty provider.

the warranty provider says my warranty will void completely if my phone gets flashed by individuals other than them, let alone the rooting or unlocking the bootloader!

so i'm stuck on 2 big decisions:

1. Ignore the warranty and root my phone, but if something bad happens, then i will have to spend many years without a phone.

2. forget about rooting and get used to the ridiculous limits of Android 11/12.

but i need both of them, so i want to ask you is that even possible?

1. What traces will be left in my phone if i root it then unroot + relock it's bootloader and flash a stock rom?

2. how do they find out my phone is flashed by someone else?

3. is there any flash counter or anything in my phone that shows my phone was flashed or modified before?

4. if there is a way to do it without getting caught, can you tell me what things should i do?

5. if you know any way then did it work for you? (did you relock and unroot your phone and get the warranty service?)

if your answer contains technical details, please tell me, i will learn anything required to do those.

Thank you for reading!❤️
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] BWA80:
Hi guys!

Just wondering what are your thoughts on upgrading to the z flip 4?

All the beans have been spilled on the specs and design already. So we pretty much know what will be offered by Samsung.

So, are you guys excited for it? Upgrade is a must? Or is it just mehhhh.....

On my side, I have no interest in upgrading. I'm still astonished that the cameras will be the same... 😱 I find no reason to upgrade. Only positive I find is the little bit bigger battery, nothing else.

So, what's your thoughts??
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] beanbean50:
No, it's not worth it for me, I'd have to pay off my existing contact first (£455) and from what I've been reading there's nothing really ground breaking about it.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] Barmenchik:
Most likely I will go to Fold4 ...
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] Sajadorskolotaie:
Far away from beeing rich enough lol
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] slysurfer:
No way I'd upgrade, this phone is working great for me. Also once the warranty is up, i'll start to flash GSI's etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] dopepope:
Just got my Flip 3, and with trade in value, plus $100 pre-registration bonus from Samsung... if the price for the 4 is right, I'll upgrade. I've only had the 3 for a short time, and while I like it, not having dex is actually a bigger deal than I thought it would be. I really do like to use it.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] paul c:
nothing to upgrade for
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] HDCowboy:
Beings I'm paying $30 a month for this AT&T Next Up deal where you can get a new phone every year I see no real reason why not to! I dont see anything better coming out in the near future! 12 x $30 = $360 I paid for the Flip 3, I think I got my moneys worth! Only thing sucks is that I'll probally have to buy another case for it but oh well! Might just wait till Black Friday (November) though and see if Sams Club (or Best Buy or somewhere) will offer a $600 in store gift certificate to upgrade like they used to before all the Covid crap started and I'll really come out on top! Free phone for a year plus a little extra cash to go with it wont hurt my feelings!! I used to play that game every year!! LOL!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] HDCowboy:
Well it doesnt look like that AT&T Next Up deal wasnt quite the deal I thought it was after all. Seems you must have to have the phone half paid off as I had to fork out and extra $200 plus $60 in taxes. I've been wanting the Flip 4 and a little better battery life cant hurt so I went ahead and did it and and with the trade in deal their giving me the 256gb model and a free case, I guess that makes it a wee bit better, but $500+ for phone rental per year Im not quite too sure! Sounds like I need to pay cash when buying new and get the big trade in or go back to buying used models on Craiglist like I used to do back in the day! I also bought a Galaxy Watch 4 Classic 46mm from Samsung refurfished on Ebay for $209 recently (which turned out to be brand new from the best I can tell) so that makes it a bit better also! Oh well, like my old man used to tell me "you only live once!"!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] TheWinner2810:
Not worth the upgrade, it hasn't received changes at all, it's almost a copy of the Flip 3, but with a little bit better internals. The upgraded processor? You don't really need it, the 888 is already quite a powerful processor, the battery? Quite an upgrade, I must admit, plus the new adaptive 1-120hz display, it must have a good battery life. The camera? The photos on the Flip 3 are already great, and even better with gcam. Would I pay ~500€ for just a better battery? (Considering I'm trading in my Flip 3)

Absolutely not.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] BWA80:
Hi!

When you get the flip 4, give a update here, was the upgrade + cash spent worth it.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] HDCowboy:
Well I lost the money I spent on the Flip 3 rental (but taken into account I'm getting the 256gb model for the price of a 128gb and a free case plus just got a Galaxy Watch 4 Classic for basically half off makes it a little better) but regardless I just got a tracking number for the Flip 4, its supposed to be here tomorrow. Oh and BTW, we have a whole section here devoted to the Flip 4, looks like quite a few folks done got thiers...........

Another interesting option that might be worth considering.........
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] crawls69:
I got to play with the Z Flip 4 yesterday at a T-Mobile store. They had it on display even though they're not shipping or in stock yet. Although the phone has been upgraded, performance-wise, I couldn't tell the difference between it and my Z Flip 3. Nothing stuck out about it or grabbed me to make me feel I have to upgrade. The phone is physically a little more streamlined but overall it's probably not worth upgrading from the Z Flip 3 unless you're getting the Z Flip 4 for free or at a drastically reduced price (Samsung and some of the carriers have good trade-in deals right now).

I'm gonna wait to see if the RAZR 2022 ever comes to the US and, if so, if my carrier will offer similar trade-in deals. If so, I'll get the RAZR 2022. I had the RAZR 5G and absolutely loved the external screen. I traded it in for the Z Flip 3 because the Z Flip 3 blew away the RAZR 5G on paper (the specs) and I got the Z Flip 3 for free with the trade-in but I immediately started missing that big external screen on the RAZR 5G. I used the RAZR's external screen just as much or maybe even more than the main screen. Even though there are now 3rd party apps to make the Z Flip 3 external screen more functional, the screen is just too small for me to use a lot - I'm still opening my Z Flip 3 for just about everything. The new RAZR 2022 is a massive upgrade over the RAZR 5G and the specs rival the ZFlip 4 but the bigger and much more functional external screen on the RAZR 2022 is the game changer for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] HDCowboy:
Yeah I received mine yesterday and felt the same way, loaded up all my old apps and did everything except swaped sim cards and it pretty much felt the same in hand although I'm sure the upgraded battery will make things even better, allthough I'm not a power user and only had problems running down the battery just a relatively few times. Of course I had everything set up to save battery since I had the phone and always had a charger nearby for those just in case days!

Started crunching the numbers again yesterday evening and this morning and thinking about whether it was really going to be worth it, and with the AT&T Next Up deal where I had to have my 256gb Flip 3 half paid off ($1050/2 = $525) and give it back and then start making payments all over again on the Flip 4 (29.17 a month for 3 years =$1050.12) for a total of $1575 and it was absolutely not! I decided to return it to the AT&T store this morning and I'm going to go ahead and pay the Flip 3 off and go with the Samsung deal and trade in my yr old Flip3 plus $200 for the Flip4.

Will that be worth it? I figure with the extra battery life and better processor for $200 plus my old Flip 3 as a trade in it dang sure well ought to be especially if you're one of those who always has the urge for the latest and greatest! I do have to admit that new Razr sure does seem cool, but I've been using Samsung products for so many years and think I'll stick with them! Competition in the market for this new generation of flip phones is always a good thing though!

UPDATE: Boy they are quick, I ordered it a little before lunch this morning (Wednesday) and by this afternoon it was already in the mail and supposed to be here by Friday!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] frayedends:
Got mine today. Samsung has a great trade-in program. You get a new 4, and I got $700 for my Flip 3 trade. So a little over $300 for a faster processor, and much larger battery. Easy choice.

I've read all the reviews, but I think the 4's crease is a little less deep than the 3. I feel it less. Otherwise I'm waiting to see how good this battery really is, as that was really my only complaint about the 3.

You can de-bloat it in minutes with ADB AppControl, kudos to those guys - removed or disabled over 140 bloatware apps Samsung installs. Which also works when updates come, the apps - and that stupid bixby and Samsung store/pay/AR crap stays disabled.

If I remember in a month I'll post back up with some further info.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] brobin111:
I got my Z Flip 4 (unlocked) yesterday (8/29) from the pre-order deal. I have the Z Flip 3 (unlocked) already but the upgrade deal was too good to pass up. They offered me a $900 trade-in credit for the 3 plus an additional $60 off and a $100 Samsung Store credit. Cash out of pocket for the 4 was just $140 + sales tax. At that price I would have taken a new 3 just for a fresh battery & warranty! It sort of feels like that's what I did anyway. The 4 is virtually identical to the 3 in size and shape - so much so that the Samsung thin carbon fibre case from the 3 fits the 4 and the cutouts fit perfectly. The viewable area of the cover screen still fits in the case cutout.

I know that there a bunch of feature improvements and a bigger battery which I'll come to appreciate as time goes by but for now I'd have to say I'd be disappointed if I'd paid a lot more for the upgrade. Apparently Samsung knew this which is why they made the upgrade dirt cheap. If you don't have a 3 and are thinking about the 4, by all means go for it. It's a terrific phone. I loved the 3 and the 4 is even better.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] BWA80:
I have disappointed myself... i went against my thoughts and beliefs.

I upgraded to the z flip 4 ☹️

But! To make myself feel better, I have convinced myself that I got a good deal (swapped my flip 3 + 150€ to the flip 4).

And I got to say, the flip 4 feels good! Feels better built, the screen is brighter, screen protector feels smoother, snapdragon feels snappier and the closing of the phone feels more satisfying 😁

The biggest upgrade I have felt is the battery. With the flip 3 I barely got through a day, sometimes had to recharge. But, with the flip 4 I go to sleep with 30-40% of battery.

So, my recommendation, if you get a GREAT deal on the flip 4, go for it. If not, flip 3 will get you through the next year to the flip 5, which should be a substantial upgrade.

Very nice job... Thanks for sharing this amazing Information!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] wolfaas12345:
As a person that trades phones for living I got lucky to experience both z flip 3 and 4 (technically I also had a chance to play with first z flip 5g one and all the folds but that's irrelevant)

So main things I can say as far as upgrade goes

1 battery definitely got a big bump idk if its MAGICAL 400mah or efficiency of s8 gen 1 but something increased the battery life quite a bit

2 overall despite being very similar phone somehow feels denser in a way I cant explain it but I can definitely by feel tell apart z flip 3 and 4

3 screen is about the same but screen protector deffo feels better

4 CPU seems to heat up less than 888 did

Overall despite there being not to much changes id argue z flip 4 is a decent upgrade but its all circumstantial and depends how much you need the extra sot and extra power
