I've registered the same thumb for all 4 profiles and it still only works like 2 out of 10 times. I know I've been doing it correctly from the beginning! It seems like it works great for the first 30 minutes right after registering the print, after that it gets worse every time I use it.
[Google Pixel 7] ShadowJP88:
Is there a way to add more than 4 fingerprint?
[Google Pixel 7] wrkadung:
I am really disappointed with the Pixel 7 fingerprint and face unlock. They are the worst; even my older Pixel 4 has a better face unlock. It heats while charging and even the battery life is decent, it is running on the latest March 2023 update!
[Google Pixel 7] ktdt00:
Followed instructions to the letter about ten times for each monthly release. I've tried registering finger multiple times, various pressures, and all the other published tips. After registering, per the instructions, I've consistently gotten about 25% with a dry finger and 80% with a moist finger. The FPS simply stinks for lots and lots of us.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JojjanSwe:
I bought another broken SM-T805 and when i start it (cold start) takes about 15 seconds before the screen starts to malfunktion.

It starts to show small multi colored LCD defects on the left side and it ends up showing like you can see on the picture. The screen works to use and all other functions works.

What I can see and feel is that the temperature is sometimes a bit high on the processor and the screen. I have tried to change motherboard (SM-T800) and another battery, but the problem is still there. I haven´t been able to use another LCD-cable.

What do you think? Is the display broken beyond repair or could it be another problem?

Is there any way to downgrade binary 6 to 3 or just downgrade android oreo to marshmallow (ik its the same thing)

If someone ask "why?" touchwiz
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] ze7zez:
It is not possible to lower the binary. This is what it was introduced for.

If the phone allows you to unlock the bootloader and flash TWRP and Custom ROM, then you can try to find a ROM based on an earlier firmware version, but it will no longer be a fully trusted firmware.

oh ok

[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] EmPiFree:
I have installed LOS 19.1 6 weeks ago. After some builds skipped I decided to update with the newest nightly build (20221010). After a successfull upgrade with LOS Recovery my phone doesn't recognize my sim card anymore. Is there any fix for this?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] EmPiFree:
For anyone who has a similiar problem, I found a possible fix for this:

Remove sim cards and boot without any inserted sim cards. After the phone booted up, insert the sim card and it starts detecting. After this one step it always detects after reboot.

Or:

Wait about a day or so, then it starts working again.
[Nothing Phone 1] dada124:
Does anyone else has fast charging issues since 1.1.4 update?

got my Nothing Phone just a few days ago. First time charged it with about 22W.

Then I've installed the 1.1.4 update and the next times the phone was charging it never went above 11-12W (but still showing as charging rapidly in the lock screen).

Tried multiple chargers (anker 45W and Asus 65W) and different cables that support 100W as well but it doesn't go above 11-12W anymore
[Nothing Phone 1] Pho3nX:
It depend of the Battery pourcent.

0/1% > 25% (MAX) - 26% > 60% (More slow) - 61% > 89% (More slow) - 90% > 100% (Very more slow)

It's for enhance the battery life, on each device.

For my part i using the official cable and the official charger NP1 (45W)
[Nothing Phone 1] greatpatel007:
If your screen is awake then the charging speed will be limite between 11w to 15w. Once you turn off the screen it will jump back to 22-24w. Everytime you awake the screen it will fall back to 50% speed by it self. I have noticed same behaviour in pixel 6pro as well. Probably to maintain thermals.
[Nothing Phone 1] dada124:
I've done the measurement now mutliple times while the screen was off. When I started charging, the phone was cooled down and battery was between 10-20% (and charged up to ~80%).

The whole time It's not going above 12W.

Is here anyone who can confirm his/her Nothing Phone(1) is charging above 12W since the last upgrade to 1.1.4? If yes, which charger are you using?

/edit: got the solution. Bought a Spigen PD 3.0 charger. This one is charging my phone with up tp 28W.

The other chargers I've used have only been supporting PD 2.0.

Strange that fast charging with PD 2.0 was removed during an earlier update

I know that it could be a little early to do this, but it would be interesting to gather some info and then compare it after a week to check if adaptive battery really kicked in.

It's definitely too early to be definitive but I don't have any complaints about my 7 Pro as it stands now. Screen off is high because I'm in a low signal area (the basement at my partner's place) and I actually think it's less than my OnePlus 9 was in the same location.

Here's my 7 pro, i was like 90% on wifi.

Mostly browsing reddit, some camera use and maybe 30mins of gaming.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Tracker31:
Adaptative battery charging is weird, but does the job (it's working even you disable it in settings). Charging limit -> 75%. Current estimate is 97% based on 21% charged. Current battery wear since arrived =0.93 cycles => 353% charged summary.

For comparison my op nord (1) based on 27months of monitoring battery wear. (Charged_limit = 80% since 1st day)

Hi everyone,

I'm finding a way to remove network lock and/or rooting the device. I saw there's previously few files shared by Tewilove than can achieve this but all the links I found is dead. Anyone can upload a copy or send me the file? Appreciate any help in advance.
[Google Pixel 7] sikandersawhney:
Maybe a feature toggle or a standalone app?

I am okay with the security risk and if we need to root the device
[Google Pixel 7] azoller1:
You might need to ask this elsewhere lol
[Google Pixel 7] entropism:
Right, but your bank is not. The face unlock is for convenience, NOT security. This isn't the Pixel 4, nor is it Apple Face Unlock. Banks will never support it, as it's a security risk.
[Google Pixel 7] sikandersawhney:
I know my bank is not. There was a rooted app called Fingerface that did this for Pixel 4. I rooted my phone so I can do stuff which Google or banks is not okay with me doing.
[Google Pixel 7] sikandersawhney:
Like where?
[Google Pixel 7] coolsid8:
Does it work on 7 ?
[Google Pixel 7] sikandersawhney:
I believe it does not. It's old and not updated
[Google Pixel 7] DJ-Tumor:
people tend to be willing taking risks until it happens. then they want the bank to fix the issue. :rolleyes:
[Google Pixel 7] 96carboard:
And yet the bank works in any old web browser.
[Google Pixel 7] entropism:
Again, the face unlock on the pixel 7 is NOT secure, like the Pixel 4 or Apple's FaceID. That's the difference.

You need a password for a web browser. You can use a picture of someone for this version of face unlock.
[Google Pixel 7] bobby janow:
What do mobile security apps have to do with with web browsers?
[Google Pixel 7] looneylv:
Apples faceID works with 2D image main camera AND infra red camera that gets 'depth' 3D image information. So it recognizes if it is a real person or an image.

Thats why apple has ugly black bar on top of screen- to accumulate these two cameras + a light sensor and it is considered as a safe unlock (just like a fingerprint) so it will work also in banking apps.

Pixel has only 2D main camera face unlock. So it wont work in any of 'higher' security apps.

Heck i wouldn't set it up for phone unlock as anybody with an basic image of your face can unlock. Very unsafe.

Oh and to downgrade the security level- this is determined by the bank and it's application developers. Not android devs, custom ROM devs, nor pixel manufacturer.

So you can try to write to your bank support, but i doubt that they will even consider the idea as it is unsafe method! Anybody with a basic image could get in your account and do all the stuff.

You are wrong here mate. No normal 'European' bank work with internet explorer or outdated google chrome, mozilla firefox and other browsers. :D Maybe some shady African bank works with IE...
[Google Pixel 7] 96carboard:
MOBILE web browser. The same device. Hence the security consideration is a load of excrement.
[Google Pixel 7] 96carboard:
The hell are you talking about? Nobody said anything about outdated crap. But even that could be overcome by switching the user agent being used by the browser.

We are talking about the over-the-top bullcrap like "you may not have root".
[Google Pixel 7] corsaair:
It won't be possible because it's not secure. Strong authentication (like fp reader or 3D scan: Apple face ID, Pixel 4/XL) is a must when using banking apps. The only exception is in Europe using Google Wallet: for smaller payments face unlock will be okay. Google Support
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] gartmann:
when trying to install a new ROM, I completely locked out myself

- fastboot leads to (new ?) orange FASTBOOT screen but

- device will not be recognized via adb/fastboot

- TWRP leads to screen teamwin Recovery Project 3.7.0_12-0 and then goes into bootloop to the same screen

any ideas?

last thing I tried was changing the filesystem inside twrp
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] cyanGalaxy:
Would be nice if you can share a photo of the "new Fastboot screen".

You mean TWRP doesn't function properly?

Did Fastboot work before? What have you done exactly?

If you need more direct help I can give you my Telegram or Discord
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] gartmann:
It doesn't properly start. These are the pics of the three possibilities I have now.

Fastboot was working before.

Last thing before was the changing the filesystem to (i thing) ExFat
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Rstment ^m^:
Orange fastboot is fastbootd, first somehow get your pc to recognise the phone , then to reboot to normal fastboot you gotta use "fastboot reboot bootloader"

From there miflash

Fastbootd can only flash certain partitions - if you run miflash from it , it'll fail I think
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] cyanGalaxy:
If the Windows installed drivers are the problem, this will fix it:

Boot Windows with Driver Signature Enforcement disabled by doing this:

Open Windows' Power Menu, and while holding SHIFT-key, click Restart.

Select "Startup Settings" > Restart.

Screenshot

Click 7 for Disable Driver Signature Enforcement.

Screenshot

Get Mi Flash, extract the folder, and run Mi Flash.

Click "Driver" in the top-bar and click Install.

Screenshot

After doing this, the drivers are correctly installed and Fastboot and ADB commands should work.

Then you can proceed to temporarily boot a TWRP or OrangeFox that actually works.

"fastboot boot twrp.img"

I recommend OrangeFox.

You can install a recovery with "Install RamDisk" (both have this option).

If you want to flash MIUI or a Custom ROM, flashing the Recovery-flashable ZIP for MIUI or for the Custom ROM, should suffice.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] gartmann:
My problem is, that (even after new driver installation with Mi Flash) the PC doesn't recognise the Poco F3 (but recognises without any problem my old Mi Mix 3).

So I concluse that the problem is on Poco side but I have ho idea what I can do it the phone isn't recognised.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Rstment ^m^:
Does device show up in device manager ? Did you setup adb tools and issue "fastboot reboot bootloader" command ? If this doesn't work, what about "fastboot devices"

Come back when you do this , don't use mi flash untill you reboot phone into bootloader ( blue fastboot )

Maybe even check if adb commands work through twrp as a last resort ... "adb reboot bootloader"
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] 3zozHashim:
The Orange Fastboot isnt fastbootd, its normal fastboot. The icon changed from the doll miui 12.5 to this orange fastboot on miui 13

Download mi unlock tool and run it. Click on the settings icon on the top right corner and download its drivers, it'll ask you to connect the phone to the pc. (connect it on fastboot mode)
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] gartmann:

[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] 3zozHashim:
try changing the cable and also try changing the usb port on pc

if still no problems, then the phone port could be faulty

btw, i only meant to say is to download the drivers from mi unlock tool, after that, you can try and flash the stock rom in mi flash tool
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] cyanGalaxy:
Did you do my steps including the Driver Signature Enforcement part?

I'm asking because otherwise I'm out of ideas lol

Kinda fked up that Fastboot isn't working for you...

Since Recovery isn't booting for you. Only Fastboot may be your last chance. So try and see if it works with other PCs... other cables... whatever. You gotta make Fastboot to work.
[Google Pixel 5a] akshayjm:
Hi all,

Quick backstory: I bought a Google Pixel 5a (from the USA) for my cousin who lives in India. The phone was working fine for him until about a few weeks ago when the phone was stuck in a boot loop. Unfortunately, my cousin did not have USB Debugging on and the OEM is locked.

I was able to help my cousin adb sideload the latest Full OTA update. The install completed successfully but when we try to restart the device, the phone bootloops once again. If we leave the phone to continue bootlooping, it gets very hot (which seems obvious but wanted to share this as well).

I cannot think of any other steps to take and it feels like this is a hardware driven issue. Worse yet, since my cousin is in India, we cannot service the phone. Posting here to see if anyone else has had a similar issue and was able to figure out what it was. Any advice helps, thanks!
[Google Pixel 5a] rchris494:
did you try to extract the payload.bin to get the boot.img file and flash it to slots a & b .i think you can do that with twrp. with the bootloader you might not be able to do that.

We are very excited to announce the beta of Paranoid Android Topaz, based on Android 13.

On the first launch, you’ll notice a clean setup with beautiful wallpapers from Hampus Olsson, who teamed up with us again to create several beautiful pieces of artwork. Hampus is a multi-disciplinary artist whose design stands for itself and we’re glad to have him onboard. We also added further UI touches that we believe enhance the overall user experience. You can find all of the Paranoid Android wallpapers and many more in the Abstruct app from the PlayStore.

Our builds are based on the Code Linaro Organization Android base, which is optimized for Qualcomm platforms and has a higher degree of performance, battery life, and functionality compared to the Android Open Source Project platform. The Paranoid Android team and contributors are focusing on squashing existing bugs, and implementing and improving features, performance, and stability. We are dedicated to providing a user experience with the stability that you can expect from stock ROMs with best-in-class performance and features to help you get the most out of your device.

[Google Pixel 6] Alekos:
Nice surprise. Will definitely try.

A couple of us in the pixel6chat group on telegram, have noticed that running the -w command doesn't wipe everything properly.

I suggest you use the wipe option in recovery mode then flash any custom ROM / image. So flashing sequence would be: Flash Android 13 October build to both slots. Boot into Android once. Wipe in recovery. Flash ROM.

These Instructions go for all Pixel ROMs. A few seconds of preparation just to make sure the experience goes smoothly.

Also, when going through the setup wizard, I'd suggest unchecking Apps and Device Settings (or don't restore anything from Google). At least uncheck device settings and uncheck any system apps if allowed (although A13 has changed a few things in regards to restoring data).
