I hope the trade-in goes well with me. At the same time, I haven't opened the Pixel 7 Pro yet. It's still in the sealed box. If they offer me anything lower than what they have promised, I'll send the Pixel 7 Pro back for full refund.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] moopsterboo:
I paid FedEx $15 for three-day delivery on my trade-in, it should arrive Thursday. I didn't want to chance it with the Lewis DeJoy-damaged USPS.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] headcreepz:
I sent my trade in device on oct. 12 and they just acknowledged receiving it today.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] gcodori:
Mine has been sitting in TN for 10 days now. At least I took pics of it showing it was factory reset and stuffed into the envelope.

I'll wait one more week until I contact them.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] rester555:
Mine was stuck in Tennessee for 11 days. I sent mine on October 28th and got reimbursed today for $480 (pixel 6 pro 128 GB). They take a long time. Also, take a video of factory resetting the phone as proof. Owner of website droid-life got screwed and didn't get their full money refund because they said the phone was not fully factory reset when it was. Instead of getting $480 back they got $200 for no factory reset. That's pretty much BS.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] simplepinoi177:
Sorry to ask a random trade-in question here, but I don't think it warranted a whole new thread. So please pardon squeezing in here...

I have to send in my Pixel 5 trade in -- by the 21st it seems. Apparently it's very important to do so by this time or it doesn't "ensure its estimated value doesn’t change" 🤯 -- but it is rooted and the bootloader is unlocked. Of course I will/have to factory reset the device, but is that enough? Do you think Google will react unfavorably that it has that bootloader is unlocked warning powering up? So I'm thinking I might just relock the bootloader, but I've seen here that there are so many times relocking the bootloader & unticking the OEM unlock has resulted in full on bricking the device. So I'm also wondering if Google would react unfavorably as well if I returned to them a bricked device. I mean, most likely they only want the phone for parts and/or could easily replace the systemboard and get it working and in good shape (resellably used condition?). There are scuffs on the corners so that would need to be replaced anyways. But when I was ordering my P7P and set up the trade in, all they asked is if it turned on and if the screen is cracked...so I would assume that's all they cared about, right? Even bricked, the screen isn't cracked and it does power on...

What do you guys think?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Lughnasadh:
I would suggest using Android Flash Tool to go back to stock and relocking the bootloader. Choose wipe and lock bootloader in the options presented.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] fullmetal509:
Finally got a email from google, after a month of waiting. Pixel 4a for pixel 7 -$300.

Weird Thing is that i use a package tracker app, and its still show is in route....
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] simplepinoi177:
Thanks for the suggestion. That's what I was planning on doing if I was compelled to go that route. It seems a lot less scary than downloading the correct factory image, doing it through platform-tools with all the commands, locking it and crossing your fingers you didn't do something wrong.

But -- just wondering out of curiosity -- do you suggest this because you don't think Google will accept a device that's rooted and unlocked bootloader? Or do you think it will lower the value? I traded-in my Pixel 2 XL, they gave me $60 less than quoted, but never explained why; but I had a sneaking suspicion that it's because it had its bootloader unlocked -- I had the same concerns on returning a bricked phone.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] rester555:
My tracker status from USPS never updated even after the refund
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Lughnasadh:
I suggest it because you have to factory reset anyway (which will unroot and wipe your phone) so might as well not give them any excuse not to give you a full trade-in value by locking the bootloader while you are at it. I don't think an unlocked bootloader will cause them to deny your trade-in as I'm pretty sure I've seen people trade-in with an unlocked bootloader and I don't believe it's written anywhere that your trade-in has to have an unlocked bootloader, only that it has to be factory reset, turn on, no cracks, no swollen battery, power button works, etc.. But personally I wouldn't give them any excuse to deny your trade-in. Remember, it's not Google who is determining your trade-in value, it's a person who works at Google and if you get the wrong person who for whatever reason is "stingy" about trade-ins, in a bad mood, or whatever, why give them any excuse?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] HipKat:
FINALLY! Got my email yesterday, accepted and full trade in applied. Geez, from 10/21 until 11/18 for the whole process
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] dodgebizkit:
I got the full trade in value so I'm good ... A nice upgrade for only £200-ish after trade in, for an iPhone 12 pro.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Elastep:
Hey! I've just received my Pixel 7 Pro... Does the trade in kit come in a separate package? Or are you supposed to ship it in the same box? Where did you get the shipping label then?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Lughnasadh:
Trade-in kit comes separately. It has a shipping label on it already.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Elastep:
Got it! Thanks! How long did it take for you to receive the trade in kit?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Lughnasadh:
I received mine maybe a couple days after I got the phone (could have been the next day, don't remember exactly). From the time I sent the trade-in in to the time my account was refunded took about 4 days. I was one of the lucky ones, apparently.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] TonikJDK:
If you log into your Google store account the return box will be listed as a separate order with its own tracking info.

Hello everyone,

I can't establish a persistent Bluetooth connection with my Pixel 7 Pro and other devices like my car or AirPods Pro 2. The connection always breaks after around 60 seconds when a) listening to music with AirPods Pro 2 and b) listening to music in the car (Mercedes GLE 2022 with MBUX). Devices were already resetted, connections were re-established and all other steps from the Google instructions were followed.

Interesting: if the display stays on and the app is open, it works perfectly. Does anyone here have an idea?

More issues sind I have Pixel 7 Pro (with OnePlus it all worked):

Album cover for spotify songs are no more visible in the car

Update: "Disable Bluetooth A2DP hardware offload" helped at least for AirPods Pro 2. Now I need to get Spotify running with all metadata and art cover.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] peterzorro:
Here are two screenshots with Spotify open (you can see cover) and Spotify closed (you cant see cover).View attachment 5745043
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] schmeggy929:
Sounds like it could be a Spotify issue. I use USB Audio Player in my Jeep, Work vehicle(Ford Escape) and Audio Technics AZ60 earbuds. I listen to music for hours uninterrupted in all 3 situations.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] ffuser1:
Try changing the bluetooth avrcp version to 1.6 in developer settings, restart, and see if there are still metadata issues
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] peterzorro:
It works with 4 other phones & Spotify. I don't think this is the issue.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] peterzorro:
I tried that and 1.4 but it was all still the same. Maybe do I need to do something additional? I also disconnected bluetooth and established a new connection.

The look changes when you have Spotify open and screen turned on and when you turn it off. It is so strange... Same goes for youtube music and other media apps.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] K1nsey6:
It may be a Spotify issue. BT connection on my Pixel Buds Pro, Liberty Air 2 Pro, car, etc is solid.

I have yet to experience any issues
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] peterzorro:
Glad to hear it works fine for you :) However, why should Spotify not work on Pixel 7 Pro but work on all our other smartphones?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] iPhoneSlayer:
I'm having some Bluetooth issues with my Pixel 7 Pro connection with MBUX.

A lot of times when I'm getting incoming calls, I can't answer them by pressing Accept on my MBUX screen. I see that that phone is connected otherwise the person calling name would not show up on my cars screen.

On MBUX I try to reconnect my Pixel 7Pro but it says connection failed on my car.

Anyone else having this issue with the Pixel 7?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Walter White:
No problems here so far with Bluetooth and Pixel 7 Pro. I'm using it together with Samsung Galaxy Buds and the Navigationsystem of my Hyundai.

Maybe check whether there is an Update available for your Mercedes Benz Navigationsystem?

In the past I had problems with my old OPPO Find X3 Pro and the Hyundai Navigationsystem. It was solved by a combination of updating the Navigationsystems Firmware and updating the firmware of the OPPO Device.

Good Luck.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] tony1208:
No issues here....I have a 2020 Honda CR-V .

Hey All,

The last few days I have been doing a lot of research because I'm interested in buying a good IPTV solution. From what I've read Nvidia Shield was good, but the latest updates bring a bunch of advertisements to the platform. Another option I was looking at was the Fire TV Cube gen 3, but the reviews have been kind of mixed. That brings me to this device "Firefly Station M3". It's a little expensive, but from the looks of it, it's a really "beefy" device with the latest hardware. It supports a lot of ram and storage. It has a really good CPU/GPU compared to its competitors.

Here is a link to the device: https://www.stationpc.com/product/stationm3

I know the device has a custom android rom, but I'd be curious if I can wipe it and just put on a stock android 12 tv rom on it?

Ideally, what's important to me is a vanilla/stock Android 12 TV OS on the device that is smooth, lag free, quick and responsive.

I want to be able to load common video providers such as amazon prime, netflix, hulu, etc..

One thing I have read is that with the 3rd party devices (maybe like this one), you can load Netflix, but it has limitations to the quality of the stream if it's not Netflix certified. I'm not sure if that would be the case with this device.

Anyway, I just want a device that works and is easy to navigate and that's responsive. I probably wouldn't be playing a bunch of games anytime soon, but I guess the thought of doing it in the future is cool. I'd mostly be using it for streaming shows/movies and I'd be interested in using an IPTV subscription at some point.

Sorry for the long post, just wanted to summarize what I am looking for. I would appreciate it if someone has any input on this device or anything that would meet the requirements of what I'm looking for.

Thanks for the response. I ended up ordering the Mekotronics R58x. I actually just made a new thread regarding it here: https://xdaforums.com/t/mekotronics-r58x.4566865/

Anyway, I'm still playing with the device and "customizing" it to my liking, but in terms of speed and performance this device is a BEAST! Everything basically loads instantly and it runs soo smoothly. Also another perk is that android 12 comes rooted stock.

I have done 4 phone before, so I am ok with whole process.

After did "TeraTermPro", I re-enabled "USB connection in ActiveSyn"; I launched "ROMUpdateUtility", it found the phone, BUT, before I did any update, my cat pulled the USB cable off my phone. Oh, No, my computer does not recognize my phone. My phone stucks on Bootloader screen. What should I do now?

[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Loller123:
Hello, is there a way to temporary root my Poco X3 Pro? I only need it because I need to recover some files that have been deleted (I used that "private file" setting on Mi File Manager but they disappeared after some days). I tried using apps that didn't require root but no results.

And if it is possible, does it invalidate warranty anyway? I would like to use root only for that purpose, but if it cause problems to the warranty it's better not to do it.

Thank you in advance for your answers.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] pl1992aw:
To root, bootloader need to be unlocked. Will also loose all data like a factory reset during unlock process.

Unlock bootloader does not invalidate Xiaomi/Redmi/Poco warranty in many countries and region. Check Xiaomi/Redmi/Poco policy in your country or region where the phone is bought yourself to confirm.

Root with Magisk in most Xiaomi/Redmi/Poco phones are reversible, including Poco X3 Pro.

Hello all, as a newbie, I will buy XZ2 for flashing ROM very soon, so I would like to ask if the featured functions can be restored.

As we know unlocking the bootloader removes some Sony's features like DSEE EX, Widevine L1 etc. Can I restore these features simply by repairing the software with Xperia Companion? If not, how can I get back these functions after I've unlocked the bootloader? And can DRM backup helps?

Thanks a lot. :cowboy:

Hi.

Good Afternoon, We´ve been having some problems with it.

I have Window´s Live Mail Mobile configurated on my Diamond, It´s included in the messenger software of this product (Diamond).

It only synchronize me the first (50 messages) on each folder. Inbox folder included.

All the folders on my Diamond, are tagged as synchronized and everything is well configurated, at a fisrt sight. I´ve phoned to Window´s Live supporter, and they tell me that probably is a trouble with my telephone provider and its services. Or perhaps, a trouble in the Operative System Software of this application.

Nevertheless, I don´t have this kind of problems, if I configure in my messenger service, an account as a example Gmail or any other!!! Sync everything OK.

Is there anything you can do to solve it?????

I hope to receive your response as soon as possible.

Sincerously

Luilly.

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] sd_dracula:
I have a gen 8 fire hd8 tablet that I have been using for a few years but the battery is dead on it now, lasts under 20 mins.

It is being powered by an in wall micro usb charger that was automated to charge it between 20-80% but because the screen is always on it flew through its charge cycles.

Leaving it on charge all the time is not safe (as my Dell laptop showed me this week where the battery swelled so much it burst the case open)

I opened it up hoping I can just disconnect the battery and power it via the charge port but unfortunately it boots to the Amazon logo and then dies.

Is it possible to maybe wire 5v from the USB cable directly to the +/- of the battery port and leave the battery out?
