Air vent hole.​

View attachment 5829633
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] theboz1419:
I wonder if the Air vent hole is to fix the issue I have had on multiple S22 Ultras. I have had 3 phones as the speaker would start to get static(blown speaker). I also seen numerous post about the speaker getting static from air preasure while flying. That air vent could be associated with the speaker to help equalize the preasure issues it has.

The S22U was the only phone I have ever had from Samsung that has done this let alone multiple times.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Ladamen2019:
Where is zoom mic on s23ultra i dont see it 😅
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] MrDusan:
I'm literally scratching my head as I'm trying to find it myself. 😂 Maybe there's a big enough gap between the glass and the camera for the mic to pick up sound.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Ladamen2019:
I found it right now under top camera is small cut out in camera and thats mic hole
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Talderon:
According to Jerry Rig Everything, the S23 Ultra Teardown shows that those 2 holes are for the MIC's, however, there is protection there so the SIM Tray Tool CANNOT damage anything if you accidentally put it in there. The hole is tapered smaller BEFORE it gets to the protecting seal so you cannot damage it.

The MIC actually sits ABOVE this membrane, so even if you managed to stick something in there and reach the membrane and poke it, the only thing you have accomplished is to make your phone less waterproof.

My 10S is on v13.0.10.0.SKLMIXM and I wonder why v13.0.12.0.SKLMIXM still didn't show up in phone update despite it already released quite sometime ago.​
[Redmi Note 10S] tutibreaker:
if your phone is carrier free, will be show or use the manual update, if your phone is from a carrier wil take more time to get the update
[Redmi Note 10S] MrEgg48:
Never see this "Carrier free" term on phone before and still not quite get the meaning of it from google by searching "carrier free phone". What the hack is that suppose to mean ??
[Redmi Note 10S] tutibreaker:
means a free device, without any carrier logo or "unlocked device"
[Redmi Note 10S] MrEgg48:
By the way it's confirm the v13.0.12.0.SKLMIXM has many bugs and has been rolled back. Looks like I have to fastboot my 10S back to v13.0.10.0.SKLMIXM.
[Redmi Note 10S] tutibreaker:

[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] rudabb:
ok guys, a couple of questions here.

the x90PP comes with an 80 watt flash charger which is proprietary of vivo.

1) would a oneplus charger (say 80 watts) work with fast charging the Vivo at 80 watts? I understood somewhere that any BKK (vivo oppo oneplus etc) chargers are compatible with each other?

2) does anyone know what charging speeds the phone get connected to a PD charger? or GAN?

3) finally would anyone recommend a compatible fast charger for it for car and normal as I need to buy 2 or 3 and leave them at various locations :)

Thanks
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] Deleted member 11872899:
1) i havent tested that myself but i read somehwere the chargers arent compatible
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] rudabb:
ok..Actually Im jumping the gun.I will be recieving my x90PP and have oneplus chargers(80w I think).I will test and report. any idea on the rest? like PD fast charging and GaN fast charging speeds? thanks again
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] Deleted member 11872899:
PD charging speed is about 18w.
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] extremecarver:
It will likely also charge with around 18w on the OnePlus charger. The default Vivo charger does charge PD devices but is ultra sensitive on longer cables. Cables that work without problems on other chargers fail on the Vivo charger with my laptop when it comes to speed and drop down to 20w or less.

And 2m cable on the Vivo charger usually meant downgrading the speed to ~18w too. I have no single cable that works full speed on the Vivo Charger with the X90 Pro+ except the Vivo supplied one.

Very likely there is no USB 3.2 compatible cable that supports more than 18w charging. So either fast charging (likely 1.5m max lenght) or fast USB 3.2 transfer speeds. Never both (I don't have 1m cables because I prefer 2m cables and before never had problems with them on other devices/chargers).

The configuration of the Flash charging interferes with USB 3.2 speeds as far as I understood. That's why the Vivo supplied cable is only USB 2.0 Full speed.
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] rudabb:
It's pretty annoying. I have the feeling I won't be holding on to the phone too long..shame.

1)buggy software.

2)camera nice but buggy.

3) proprietary technology that locks you down in a system you're avoiding (such as apple)

4)at least with the apple ecosystem you get seamless experience and uniformity.

For me sticking to android always was the customizability and aftermarket stuff.

With vivo in particular it is very hard for both. Shame . Such a nice phone but a headache just to find a 6a long cable that works. Or a flash charger that doesn't cost angazzilion dollars to buy on AliExpress.

Sorry, venting.
[Vivo X90 Pro Plus] rudabb:
But thanks so much for explaining this.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Bulauski2005:
For the last few updates OB2 - F.18 there has been no dual sim bug. Now OnePlus pushed out F.20 the dual sim bug is back. Do we have a fix ? Or just stay on F.18 ?
[OnePlus 9 Pro] nim0x:

[OnePlus 9 Pro] Bulauski2005:

I guys, i'm on 13.0.0 (TD1A.221105.001, Nov 2022) and its working fine with root and magisk hidden (for google pay).

Can somoene explain me simply all the steps to update to january factory from the beginning and keep root and with magisk hidden.

Thank you for your help.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] jknaggs:
Look for Pixel flasher on XDA , allows you to update and everything will be as you had it afterwards. Simplest and easiest in my opinion. Been using for every update
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Wmateria:
Question, when updating using Pixel Flasher, do i have to tick the disable verity and disable verification when flashing for every update?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] TotallyAnxious:
If you want those to stay disabled yes. If you don't do it and decide you want to disable them later on. You'll have to wipe again.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] boontje3:

[Google Pixel 7 Pro] niyonsv:
Thanks for sharing this video. But this also means this 'OTA Upgrade Guide' from Magisk website doesn't work with the Pixel devices/ Android 13? I was using the OnePlus 7T before since 2020 (to last month) and I think since then itself I was following the above mentioned official Magisk guide to update to the latest OOS OTA's and major Android firmware upgrades too to keep the data and also the root. So doesn't this official guide work anymore?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] boontje3:
i dont know never followd the official Magisk guide that you linked on my pixel7 pro , i yust followd the youtube that i linked en worked like a charm never lost root/data
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Lughnasadh:
It's hit or miss as to whether installing to inactive slot via Magisk during an OTA update will work. Some have been successful while many others have not. But if you want to keep root while updating, I would suggest Pixel Flasher.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] niyonsv:
Thanks, just went through the thread.

Definitely Pixel Flasher. Only took my 153 seconds to flash Feb update and booting up with all mod, root and data retained.
[Xiaomi 13 Pro] darrenlimch:
Hi everyone

Like title mention, i trying to change my model from Xiaomi 13 pro to xiaomi 12 pro.

Reason its that my telco only support VOLTE and VOWIFI for Xiaomi 12 pro.

I try to edit buildprob with "adb shell settings put global device_name "Xiaomi 12 Pro"

But seems like doesnt work, when i use "get" method, it return xiaomi 12 pro, but the telco still detects as a "Xiaomi 13 Pro". This phone is imported from china. But i need VOWIFI badly as my condo have weak signal.

Hope any expert can help.

Thanks in advanced.
[Xiaomi 13 Pro] NOSS8:
I don't think changing the name will change anything. The mobile providers transmit the necessary information to the brands so that the updates include this information.

Hello everyone, let us open a general CASE topic where we share all experiences and recommendations with cases and also discuss questions about cases.

Let's avoid opening unnecessary many single category topics.

Otherwise you have no overview in the later course.

In one topic it is at least clear.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Ramme:
I would start right away.

I have found the following premium cases in carbon style.

REUTERSON Price: 79,99€

Spoiler content hidden.

CENMASO Price: 39,99€

Spoiler content hidden.

PITAKA Price: 79,99€

Spoiler content hidden.

Has anyone had any experience with one of these protective covers?

Are there any restrictions regarding a glass screen protector, because of the curved design, to what degree the protective cover may/should go?

My personal favorite is the PITAKA case, as far as the design accents are concerned, but as far as the protection is concerned, I would prefer the REUTERSON, as it protects the entire side of the device. As for the price, I find the CENMASO the fairest. It offers almost complete protection at the edge like the REUTERSON but is half the price.

Edit: (10.02.2023)

#PITAKA

So I have tried the PITAKA hull, my conclusion.

The case looks very chic, but I am very bothered that the case protects the sides only half ( under the volume buttons), is completely closed at the bottom (strongly protruding) and feels very slippery overall.

I'm sticking with the same Spigen Tough Armor I've had on every device I've had since I stopped using UAG cases that kept falling apart on my Android devices when I got my iPhone 8 Plus.

https://www.amazon.com/Spigen-Tough-Armor-Designed-Galaxy/dp/B0BJSNT7H8

I also really like that it has cutouts for each of the three main cameras because I've seen many people complain about getting junk caught in the rings on the S22 Ultra and since this is a Designed For Samsung case, it means that Spigen worked directly with Samsung to make it so it should be precision cuts everywhere. I also just really like the look of the individual camera rings as opposed to just having a chunk missing there.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Therazorsedge:

Tried samsung original case transparent, feels very solid on my s23U
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] theboz1419:
Unless, Amazon sent me a S22 ultra case, even though the box and the listing said a s23 ultra case, it works perfectly fine on my s22 ultra.

So if it is indeed a s23 case, then I dont see any reason a s22 case should be fine
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] OnnoJ:
An S22U case won't fit on S23U!
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] theboz1419:
Which is odd since a S23U case fits pretty good on a S22U. The only difference I can tell is the extra cut out for the pin hole next the charger.

The side buttons there is not enough of a change, even with a slight alignment difference, the buttons works as they should with the case on.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] OnnoJ:
Some flexible cases may have a (poor) fit, as dimensions are just slightly different. For a proper fit you would want aS23U case.

[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Joloxx9:
I had two of them, PITAKA and one form unbox therapy also one more cheap from China(aliexpress) let me share my thoughts:

- if you want to protect your phone AND keep it in nice condition, then forget about that case. Material is so hard that any type of sand/grain/dust will scratch sides/corners of your phone.

- those cases are quite bad, there is literally no difference between pitaka/unbox therapy and china besides price, chinese one was IMO best and costed 12gbp instead of 50 lol.

I am choosing ringke onyx and their screen protector, cheap and should be quite secure. I was going to choose spigen once again, however it is too bulky.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bgtip:
Carbon fiber cases look sick, but I wonder what level of protection they offer? I have a generic transparent silicone cover on just right now, and it looks that it would bounce if I drop the phone accidentally.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Ramme:
When I look at all the carbon cases, unfortunately, they all do not look safe, the frame usually goes on the sides to under the volume buttons, clearly silicone is safer and better, it wraps especially usually completely the sides of the phone.

According to the pictures on the website, at least the carbon goes over the volume buttons in the Reuterson case. The only question is whether it will be the same for S23... on the website the picture seems to be of the S22 Ultra.

I also ordered the Spiegn transparent case first and am waiting for the reviews regarding the carbon cases.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Joloxx9:

[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] YREX:
That's a great choice. I used the Spigen tough armor case for the last two Samsung phones I had. Also love how the case goes around all the camera rings looks special.
