[Asus Zenfone 6 Questions & Answers] dez93_2000:
On a Whatsapp video call, listening via my bluetooth headphones. My wife pulls the car into the garage, and the phone switches to the car bluetooth automatically and won't switch back. I've tried forgetting the car, forgetting the headphones, but nothing seems to stop the car having priority (could it really be alphabetical priority? C for Car before H for Headphones? (assuming the devices are named Car and Headphones)).

Various other flavours of this annoyance. Auto-connecting or not. Switching or not. It's absolutely infuriating. Does anyone know if:

Bluetooth device management on Android is just ****, has always been ****, and will always be ****?

1 was true but was fixed since Android 11 / bluetooth BTFM.CHE.2.1.5-00254-QCACHROMZ-1.329647.2.333715.1 (Zenfone 6 stock)

1 is true but can be fixed by flashing the bluetooth firmware with a super awesome replacement?

1 is true but can be fixed by installing a super awesome app?

Thanks all! Surely I can't be the only one frustrated by this.

Hi, I have a S3L46N (3rd gen) amazon tv fire stick and it doesn't power on no more, I checked with tester and voltage to hdmi is 5,1VDC so I guess voltage it comes.

I tried some method I found on utube but none of this method worked (turn off tv + remote power hold for 60 secs, and others).

Is there a tutorial where I can fix it and recover to stock_rom with factory reset or something like this ? (via linux terminal ?)

Thanks anyway

[LG Stylo 3 Questions & Answers] Geeeknik:
Hi all. Newb here. I recently got a used Stylo 3. It's in good shape and works well for a mid range phone from 5 to 6 years ago. It's stuck with Android 7 though and won't update. Is there any way to force the phone to update past 7 to, say 10? Without rooting. Thanks in advance.
[General Questions and Answers] lhgrappler:
Hi, I made a huge mistake. I bought a phone from Market Place that claimed to be unlocked. I brought a sim to test it, but forgot the little sim key to open it. The guy told me how he called Verizon and got an unlock code, and entered it. I bought it - I shouldn't have. Lesson learned.

Called Verizon and original owner stills owes on it so they wouldn't unlock it. Tried doctorsim, they said they can't unlock it.

Do have any other options here? I have done rooting, and things like that in the past. Is there a way to unlock it myself? I'm sick thinking about my expensive paper weight.

It is a Samsung A535G UW SM-A536V

Any ideas or suggestions greatly appreciated.

Even re-flashing Stock ROM doesn't remove a carrier lock: carrier lock will still remain.

But you can unlock your network by simply flashing a different ( but the same model ) modem. You can Google your device name followed by modem to get your modem .zip file
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Unfortunately, if the previous owner still owes money to Verizon then your problem is bigger than just being carrier locked. Verizon has most certainly blacklisted the IMEI on the device so that it can't be activated on any network at all.

Verizon will not remove the device from blacklist until the money that is owed to them by the previous owner is paid and they won't let you pay it for him, it HAS to be the previous owner.

There is no way to solve this without resorting to methods that are generally illegal. You will only be able to use this device on Wi-Fi unless you resort to illegal methods, you definitely will NOT get help with that here, it is against the forum rules here and the Mods most certainly will not allow it.

Either accept your losses and forget about the device or take legal action against the person you bought the device from.

Hey there,

I'm in France as well, and do have the exact same issue with Wifi 6. Sometimes it does works great, but is really, really inconsistent in the long run. Looks like clear software issue.

My previous S21 Ultra (Exynos) was rock solid with hyper fast speeds. New S23 Ultra does even worse than my cheap Xiaomi tablet.

Hope it's just for now and future updates will fix that.

[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] cornwall0683:
Thanks for the AES tip. Did that. The response when in wifi 6 (not E) seems a little better but the speedtests are still a choppy in some ways. I Hope a firmware upgrade will fix that, as the S21 Ultra didnt suffer from it.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] peacey8:
FYI everyone, I just got the Feburary software update but this issue with WiFi 6 networks and connectivity loss is still not fixed. WiFi 6E and WiFi 5 works fine, it's only WiFi 6 networks that are having issues.

What the hell is taking Samsung so long to fix it? They need to acknowledge it immediately. These reports are all over the Internet now on every forum, from Reddit to XDA to Samsung forum itself. This is clearly a driver issue that needs to be fixed ASAP.

Hi guys

All my home setup is all based on Ubiquiti equipment; router, switches and AP. Not using a router for WiFi - sucks. My AP supports WiFi5 and 6 and both are enabled. Never had any problems with either my S22 Ultra or now S23 Ultra, both connects to WiFi6 - 5 GHz and my older devices uses 2.4 GHz - WiFi 5.

On my S22 Ultra and S23 Ultra I've speeds around 900Mbit up/down. Upgraded my AP a month ago, was thinking about a WiFi 6e AP but dropped it...no need since my fiber i 1Gbit U/D. Both S22 and S23 connects to AP with 1200 Mbit, using WPA3 Personal.

Don't know if this is for any help, but I hope.

I noticed I'm having an issue with WIFI 6E when watching videos on Facebook or Youtube, its aggravating. If I toggle wifi, it works again until I start watching videos again. Disable wifi and have no issues watching video on Verizon 4G LTE or 5G. I have an unlocked S23 Ultra.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Talderon:
I have 2 Google Nest Pro's meshed (WiFi 5/6/6e) and have no issues at all with WiFi on my S23U. The speeds are blazing regardless if I am watching vids, downloading apps, playing games or anything.

Now, I am on a Fiber connection, but my entire apartment complex shares it, so these speed tests externally on my network are never great, but good enough.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] happy.gillmore:
I figured out that wifi6 on the AP needs to have the DSS Transitioning and Band Steering disabled. Also only have 5ghz radio enabled for wifi 6, not 2.4 and 5 at the same time. I'm running a ubiquiti AP. I'm sure other routers have this setting. Try disabling them and give it a try.

Hello XDA community, hope you guys have a good day

I am seeking help from developers to help in creating kernels for modern Infinix phones. The company does not provide their kernel sources, and we need to make kernels for those phones to be able to run stable custom ROMs

As someone who knows a bit about this field, I understand the technicalities involved in creating custom kernels.

I am specifically interested in creating kernels for HOT 12 Play. Note 11, Note 12 and HOT11s. I believe that this will be a challenging and rewarding project, and I would love to have others join me in this endeavor, and as you can see those devices are too much to maintain for me especially that I'm not very experienced.

If you have any experience, even a little a bit in creating kernels and ROMs, or if you have any suggestions, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Thank you for your time and support!

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jespat88:
Hi all,

Absolutely frustrated by my 2nd Gen FireTV 4K - just been stuck on the installing the latest software screen and gets to the end to loop to a white Amazon logo for about a second to back to installing. Been doing this for ages

1. Tried to ADB but can’t connect - the IP address only stays up for a while plus ADB debugging maybe off…

2. Tried the keyboard method, Alt I print screen, doesn’t work.

3. Changed HDMI cables and ports, no idea how that makes a difference

4. Restarted my router, again don’t know how that makes a difference

5. Held the various buttons on remote and that doesn’t work either.

Absolutely ruined my Sunday afternoon

Trying all this, anybody with an idea of what I could do next would be great as it just keeps getting stuck in this install, restarts itself and then repeats again!

Picture attached. Usually takes about 2-4 mins, then restarts for a short while to this again and starts again, freezes , then suddenly completes.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Finnzz:
You could try unlocking it, and using TWRP to reflash it

https://xdaforums.com/t/unlock-root-twrp-unbrick-firetv-2-sloane.4222331/

If you don't want to go down that road, you can use the command adb wait-for-device to wait until ADB is ready and then automatically send a command. For example:

adb wait-for-device && adb logcat > logcat.txt

This will automatically dump logcat as soon as adb becomes available. Then you can look through the log for whatever is causing the problem etc.

I'm not sure if the Android factory reset works on FireTV, you can try

adb wait-for-device && adb shell "recovery --wipe_data"

Or

adb wait-for-device && adb shell "input keyevent KEYCODE_FACTORY_RESET"
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jespat88:
Hi Finzz,

Thanks for your reply, wasn’t expecting anyone to get back to me on this to be honest!

I tried sudo ADB connect with the ip address that shows up on ipconfig /getethaddr but didn’t work. It seems the continuous reboots also knocks out the connection.

I don’t think ADB was enabled on the firetv so I can’t ADB connect anyway…

I’ll check the guide you posted now, thanks

Jesal

The TRWP work and unbrick work? Doubt I have a usb cable A-A too. Will USB C to

A work?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Finnzz:
Oh ok, I thought you might be using a USB cable to make your ADB connection attempt. The device must be getting pretty far in the boot process if it's even making a momentary WiFi connection.

I don't think the method used in that link can be blocked by Amazon. It's made possible by a simple hardware short.

You would be using this to load TWRP from a computer onto your device, to allow you to reflash it, and wipe data if needed. It would work with the stock Amazon firmware.

You will need to buy/obtain that USB A to USB A cable for your computer to communicate with the FireTV. They are a few bucks on Amazon:

https://www.amazon.com/USB3-0-VCZHS-Double-Enclosures-Laptop/dp/B089ZZW425/

You could probably even get one for cheaper if you search around on Amazon/eBay.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] tfn:
Hi.

Anybody have any idea when one Ui 5.1 will drop officially for the S21 series?

I am holding on to my S21 ultra as I feel most of the features of the S23 ultra are software based and so don't feel the need to upgrade.

2 years from preorder and its still a solid phone.

Also samsung haven't sorted out the shutter lag it seems on the S23 Ultra.

For photos it seems to have moved to more vibrant and hdrish photos for the S23 series as compared to the s21 series.

What do you guys think 🤔
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] mpore14:
S21U is definitely a solid phone.

5.1 is nothing to be very excited about. There is no life changing features to wait for. The current software in my opinion is good enough for everyday use. Camera is still as excellent as it was, maybe even better.

Battery life has decreased a little but not by much. There's no particular reason why I would ever change device.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] tfn:
I feel at least 60% of the S23 ultra show off is due to one ui 5.1 and software optimisation.

Especially with the camera via Expert raw .

If you compare the s21 ultra photos to the S23 ultras the s23 ultra tends to lean towards more vibrant and hdrish photos compared to the s21 ultras muted photos.

Since its US then no as Verizon has to unlock it or its not happening.

I suppose you could try using Verizon and see if it works and if so then switch and it won't be wasted if it all goes well. But, this is the worst option here and could wind up being more wasted money.

I don't know if this Market Place has a support or something that could help you out for a bad sale. That would be the best thing.

And also what you used to pay for it might help you out. Credit cards for instance many times will help customers out with bad purchases. This is your last thing to try.

So you have 3 other things to look into :)

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] lbhocky19:
is batterry the only thing that improves? how about data speeds or reception
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] plfinch:
I am very interested in the answer to these questions as well. I have a Tilt (AT&T WM6.1 ROM with common tweaks) and the Fuze (AT&T stock ROM with common tweaks). I prefer the Fuze in almost every way but the radio is a dissappointment. In side by side comparisons it generally reads 1 or 2 bars less than the Tilt. This also means the Fuze falls out of 3G long before the Tilt. Both break the 2mbps barrier when sitting under a tower. But speeds vary greatly as distance increases and places where the Tilt was still getting 900kbps, the Fuze was down around 250-300kbps, including my house unfortunately. The Tilt now has my wife's SIM card in it making comparisons possible and easy. There are locations I no longer want to tether due to the performance decrease in the Fuze. Battery life is not that great of a concern to me since the phone is charging whenever I am in the house, car, office, or tethered (and I'll get a double-life battery for it like I did for the Tilt as soon as there are a few available with good reviews, history, and case back designs).
