[Google Pixel 7] Moondoggy51:
I currently have a Pixel 3 that's in excellent physical shape and operates just fine. My concern is that I'm I'm no longer getting android upgrades, not getting feature upgrades and not getting security patches because my phones no longer supported. My main concern with a cell phone is one that's trouble free, has a battery that will hold up throughout the day and is supported.

If I upgrade today with an unlocked Pixel 7 Google will give me $150 on a trade in of my Pixel 3. Part of me says pull the trigger while part of me questions whether any problems with the Pixel 7 will be resolved by waiting for the 7A or the 8. If I wait the price might be higher and/or the trade-in value less so I'm looking for some opinions from existing Pixel 7 owners.

So, is the Pixel 7 stable and reasonably problem free or are there sufficient concerns with the Pixel 7 that would cause me to hold off?

If you are happy with your phone but concerned about getting updates, then you can unlock the bootloader and give the Pixel Experience ROM a try. I did this with a Pixel 3a, so now I have Android 13 and additional features such as unlimited google photos storage. Check it out here: https://get.pixelexperience.org/blueline
[Google Pixel 7] New Folder:
I bought Pixel 7 about a week ago.

I clean flashed the february update and i have zero issues. The fingerprint thing people mention are from my experience due to very dry hands.

I'd say it's the best damn phone i ever had. (coming from OnePlus6 so i had quite high expectations for software) but dang unbelievable camera.

I was also thinking to wait and in the end. After 8 comes 9 and afrer 9 comes 10.
[Google Pixel 7] srok@:
Personally after s21fe I'm not impressed by camera in Pixel 7. It does not have shutter lag but it's slightly better in good light (I'm not even sure) and I feel like it's worse at low light without night mode (and night mode kicks in relatively fast on Pixel).

Phone is good but fingerprint sensor is bad. Sometimes it's not working (if finger is too dry or too wet I guess) but I never had that problem with s21fe or Nord 2 (but they both sucked with update delivery time, Nord 2 insanely).

Good phone if you can get nice deal on it. I thibk if you're not crazy like me about fast delivery of updates they're better phones in its price.
[Google Pixel 7] slysurfer:
Hi, I was also waiting for the 7a, then thought, na, I got a P7 for AU$500... it was a week old. I know the P7a will be a little smaller ( 6.1") I upgraded from a P5 and its roughly the same width but 10mm taller. Getting use it it fast. You will also miss out on Andoid 16, as the 7a is released in August and Android is released in October, normally. Something to consider.

[Google Pixel Watch] mono424:
I bought a PixelWatch in Quebec, Canada and I am living now in Germany.

The official Pixel Watch docs list both countries as compatible lte countries.

I added a eSIM with Telekom to the pixel watch and the adding process did work, nevertheless I had no internet connection evetough the eSIM was displayed on the pixel watch and the Watch App.

After talking with Telekom support, I did a factory reset of the pixel watch also deleting the eSIM.

Afterwards I tried to install a new eSIM but now the Watch App is stuck on "Contacting Phone Carrier".

After contacting the Google Support, they told me that the Pixel Watch is Country Locked and you can only use a canadian pixel watch inside canada.

Is this true? If yes why this is not mentioned anywhere in the internet?

Does anyone know how to solve this issue?

Wish you all a great day

[Realme 7 Pro Questions & Answers] MarekSurek:
Hi, when I unlocked the bootloader on the original rom, the motion sensors stopped working and the fingerprint reader and even after reflashing the partition via fastboot nothing improved.

So I gave the phone to the service, because they do not allow the customer to do it himself.

Since this phone has practically lost support, I am thinking about installing Evolution X, Derpfest or Pixel experience rom.

Has anyone of you tested any of these roms and can recommend one and do all the sensors work there as well as the fingerprint reader and 65W charging?

I don't want to risk unlocking the bootloader if the rom could not work, then I prefer to leave the original system, but I'm open to your suggestions.

Thanks in advance for your help
[Realme 7 Pro Questions & Answers] N3Ostyl3:
In my opinion, derpfest 13 is great, only during installation you have to follow the instructions in order for everything to work. Works great for me 8 hours of battery life with continuous use, smooth operation most importantly clean not cluttered with some nice features. I recommend :)

Hi all!

I would like to know if there are more watchfaces packs such as the monster one you can find in this forum. I liked it so much but I've always wondered if there is another one like that with updated watchfaces.

Another question about the Watchmaker companion app for my S3 Frontier:

I've bought it from the store some time ago, now I get a new phone and for some reason I ignore, to connect the S3 to a new phone you have to reset it, but when I did it I lost the companion app and when I try to download it, I only have to buy it (again). I have the purchase receipt too, someone knows how to fix that? A few days ago I sent an email to the developers and I'm waiting for an answer.

Thank you in advance!!

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] manetta:
Hy to all, first of all thank to everyone that put time and pacience in this hobby. I want to anticipate that I've been hours to search an answer before posting, but my result was not good for me. I hope that someone tells me I'm stupid and I can find my solution in that thread (this means I'm quite close to the end of my problem).

History

X7500 upgraded to HTC 6.0 original rom

unlocked my athena with olipro unlocker (thanks to olipro) to 1.20 (from 1.10).

upgraded my radio from 1.50 to 1.58.

flashed my rom with micky's 6.1 italian rom.

I had problem with language: italian rom appeared me as english and I couldn't change to italian.

I decide to go to michy's italian rom page and download 1.15 rom.

from another computer now I try to change my rom but............

after starting the bootloading (spb 1.20 olipro appears so it's unlocked) the device disconnect from activesync and usb and no upgrade is possible. It appears me the request for new hardware information driver needed (as my pc doesn't recognize athena in bootloader mode). So... no connection and no upgrade. I've tried to launch other upgrades (rom and unlocker) but still the same. Where am I wrong? is it something related to the pc or to the athena? thanks in advance to whom will answer me.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] manetta:
so? 70 readers a noone that write try this ot that?

Woow!!!
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] aze2learn:
I normally use SDcard to flash because the usb port on my unit is not detected properly. Since you already have SPL 1.20-Olipro, you can easily revive yours.

Just follow these steps:

1 - format your SDcard with FAT32 (use windows explorer on your PC)

2 - extract any wm6/6.1 spl 1.xx rom you want to flash and copy all files into your SDcard

3 - rename the RUU_signed.nbh to atheimg.nbh

4 - put the SDcard into your unit and boot the device into bootloader mode (or you can simply click Enterbootloader.exe if you can use file explorer on the device)

5 - after you finish flashing and the screen shows 'Restore OK' .. remove SDcard first before you reset the device. Sometimes need to plug out the battery or reset twice or do hard reset before the unit will boot again into OS.

Since the edge 30 fusion is not on xda as a forum i thought i try it here,

i wanted to install magisk so i can change some stuff with gravity box etc. I came to understand that if i want my phone to be able to update i should not install a custom fw so i need to patch the boot image. But i need to have the same boot image as my device but i could not find it on lolinet.com. I kinda don't know which of the 100000 Versions of my phone i should get. My phones version is S3JS32.1-86-1.3. Where do i find that? is there some place else than lolinet? I've read somewhere that i can extract my own boot image but don't know how and if it is even necessary.

How do i do this?
[Motorola Edge 30 Ultra / Motorola Moto X30 Pro] USCanthony:
Download and install RSA (Rescue and Smart Assistant) from Lenovo's site. If you connect your phone via USB while RSA is running, RSA will list the correct firmware for your phone in its downloads tab. Download the firmware to your PC hard drive and then open the file and extract the boot.img file. That is the file you want. Just make sure your phone is up-to-date with its firmware or else you may be downloading the upgrade firmware and not the firmware that your phone is running. You can compare versions through the RSA software.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmitryengr:
I am trying to do this very trivial task, but I cannot find any complete instructions on how to do it.

So far, I gathered that

APK is just an archive that files can be added to using aapt add MyApp.apk file1 file2 ...

Or the files must be added to the assets folder

The APK must be less than 100mb to be allowed on the APP store

The files must be signed

The problem is that I am finding these one-line answers in Stack Overflow questions, and not in any official instructions from Android Studio developers, and they leave a lot of necessary steps out. Which I have to guess, like where to put the files, where are they getting stored on the device. If adding files to the assets folder, I need to know Which assets folder? app/build/intermediate? Do I need to add something to Gradle scripts? Are there any other steps?

This is a very basic thing that probably every android app needs to do, and I am baffled that there is not an option or support in the IDE to import and sign the files being used by the application.

So far I had to resort to manually uploading these files (YOLO ONNX models, label text files, test images, etc) to my phone and the emulator for testing.

I am looking for some clear and concise step by step instructions to how someone can add something like a text or image file to their APK, sign it, and make it deploy to the phone or emulator automatically when building, running, or debugging the app.

Can someone please help point me to such a resource?

Thank you,

does anyone know of any universal remote programs that work on the 6800?
[Mogul, XV6800 General] Enzo2387:
Unfortunately, they don't work on the Titan. I believe it's because the IR is too weak.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] SmokeyJBluntz:
my guess is its the cpu, but you could be right... novii remote wont even load, and another i tryed just wont detect the IR signal at all
[Mogul, XV6800 General] Nick_BN1:
Range and software both issues

In addition to most software simply not supporting the configuration for the 6800, the range of the device is at most 2-3 feet.

[Mogul, XV6800 General] TheSilentman:
Me too... I read that someone made it work but the Mogul has to be at 10cm from the TV. Seems that the IR signal is too weak
[Mogul, XV6800 General] SmokeyJBluntz:
like i said before, i still cant believe that htc would downgrade from 3 years ago. i would think that if they bothered to add it it would be at least functional...

one way to find out the range is send a file through IR to another cell, but my mda dont work no more, broke the mini usb port. but my friend has a 6800 that i should see this weekend, if i can send her a file further than 10cm then i wont believe that person did get it to work.

i think its all hardware issues that the programmers havent got around to issuing
[Mogul, XV6800 General] Sweeny Russ:
You know the only reason htc includes IR beams are for real estate professionals. I don't ever use it and even for the people that beam files back and forth bluetooth is much quicker and more reliable. The IR on devices like these and the treos unlock boxes on doors with keys to houses that are on the market with a special real estate software with a 128 bit encryption.
[General Topics] retroarcade2003:
Hi,

i open this discussion due to a problem that affect my phone since last september periodically. I have a Realme 8 pro, one day, in september, it said a thing like "there is a problem with your chat history, we can recover it from an existing backup", i had a backup so i started the recovery. And here started to have problems. Whatsapp Backups i have are more or less 2,35 Gb, there are seven years of chat so they are heavy. The teleohone has difficulty to recover everything. The first recover never goes fine. I have to unistall the app, install again and start a new recovery. But also this recovery fails sometimes. After september, this thing happened again after a month after the use of whatsapp web, so i stopped to use it and worked more or less fine, until today. I woke up and the phone said again "there is an error..." so i tried again with the recovery. After an hour stuck on 30% i closed the app so the backup wasn't complete. So i unistalled the app, reinstalled and used a backup of yesterday. That didn't work, the app said " there is a problem restoring this backup, do you want to try another one?" (something like that), i used another one, stuck again, re-open the app, half completed backup again. Then the error screen popped up again I re-did everything and after a day recovering stuff it SEEMS to work. I am tired. The thing i wanted to asl you all is, there is a way to manually recover chats without whatsapp process, in case there is the necessity again, or maybe if someone knows hot to resolve the problem. Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad english.

Perhaps, someone knows what problem can be caused by the connective, mentioned in the thread name and how to fix it...

So, what I have experienced myself: I flashed a modified kernel, magisk from twrp and used the phone happily..

After some time I got a system message about that my phone was ready for security patch updating. I deleted update files from Ota-packages folder, but after an occasional reboot I found that the phone had already been updated, I had no root, twrp and the custom kernel anymore.

Does anyone know the reason of such behaviour? What exactly cause it? How to reflash the custom kernel correctly? How to avoid subsequent system updates, which can rebuild the ROM with the stock kerner instead of the custom one?

Does it matter when to obtain root via magisk providing I use a custom kernel?

I just got my phone and installed a recommended app called oxios.

A friend of mine had the tmobile wing, and it was operating really slowly too. I beamed that app over to him and it made his phone operate much much better.

I'd store stuff on your card, keeps the phone memory free to use and then its also removable if you want to loan some data to a friend or something.

To get Oxios, look at the thread I made called "Sprint Mogul must haves"
[Mogul, XV6800 General] thundaar2000:
Yeah I agree...

Most stuff can be put onto the card.

I only put onto phone storage the stuff I use ALL the time or stuff that HAS to be there or running in the background(like MSVC, dialers, themes, sounds, etc)

I use wisbar advanved desktop and S2U2. I installed THOSE to phone memory along with various themes. It is running all the time and is quicker waking up when the phone rings etc. Ringtones should be on phone memory also.

All my games, other apps (like oxios, gps maps, youtube player, tvguide, aim, etc) are on the card. Because those I use/run them and when I'm done I close them.

Hope this makes sense....

I tried to download the file but it wont let me...do you know somewhere else i can get it? thanks
[Mogul, XV6800 General] worwig:
Generally, it won't make your phone slow if you have a lot of items loaded in local flash ROM. What typically makes it slow is having a number of background tasks that are running. Do you use taskmanager or something to close the excess junk?

Typically, if you have a program that runs on the today screen or in the background, load it in local ROM. If it is huge or seldom used, load it on the storage card.

If you install an app on the storage card, it may be a little slower to load into ram when you start it. Usually that isn't a problem though.

Ok. so I was thinking of installing manila and the opera browser. should i install them on the storage card?
