[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] Fatihh57:
hi guys, zenfone3 soft bricked. enters fastboot mode. There is no recovery mode, the phone stays on the asus screen while booting. I tried to install stock recovery

I tried to install twrp, this did not happen because the bootloader is unlocked. The bootloader lock cannot be unlocked via fastboot.

I tried to install with the asus flash tool, I tried 5 different stock roms, the same error I got on 2 different PCs;

run flash image script failure (failed (remote:failed to write partition))

After getting this error, I tried to do fastboot oem reset-repartition while trying to fix it, but I also got the following error;

failed (remote permission denied)

ı not fixed.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] PFusion:
If not,

1.) Is there any other U.S phones that support dual active sims?

2.) Is it possible to combine 2 sims from say Verizon & Tmobile to load balance upload/download?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] EtherealRemnant:
If you want dual physical SIMs on a US flagship, you need to get the OnePlus 11. It supports dual physical SIM while also still allowing you to disable the second physical SIM for eSIM if you wish. The S23 Ultra only supports 1 physical + 1 eSIM.

No, you can't combine data connections. The one that isn't set to default is disabled. There isn't a phone around that I'm aware of that can have two simultaneous active 5G data connections.

I'd like to buy a OnePLus 11 from amazon but does it support dual active sims? I'd like to be able to load balance my data between the 2 sims from different carriers. Is this possible?

Or combine the data throughput from 2 sims from the same provider. Is this possible?
[OnePlus 11] maamdroid:
Yes it does. You can use two physical sims or one physical and one esim. I use two physical sims. Verizon and T-Mobile.

As for how dual sims work in Android... You select which sim you want to use data one. You don't use data from both sims at the same time. Though, you can easily pick which one you want the data for.

Both will be able to send and receive calls and texts. Though you pick your primary/default sim for what calls and texts default to.
[OnePlus 11] PFusion:
Thank you!, Now if I can just figure out rooting so I can get call recording going.
[OnePlus 11] seemcity@gmail.com:
That's not dual active. That is dual standby. You won't find any phone with dual active sim in US.
[OnePlus 11] gs73lx2tr:
Did you need to buy a dual Sim tray?

Thanks
[OnePlus 11] cavist:
Oneplus has 3 sim slots: dual nano sim tray and one esim.
[OnePlus 11] rboone18:
Tried to dual esim and sim together but some reason on sim can do nothing but text can't use it for calls since I want esim for data
[OnePlus 11] rboone18:
Well if u use esim and sim, sim can't be Verizon
[OnePlus 11] PFusion:
Will OnePlus 12 support dual active sim ?
[OnePlus 11] defcondoc:
Not sure. The SD modem chip is capable of it. But my guess is it probably won't. I'm like you, I've been searching for the DAS DSDA for years. Many older phones had this feature but I believe the cell carrier networks shut this option down in order to get you to buy more phones. I heard the feature was available on China networks with china firmware but haven't confirmed anyone using it successfully here in NA North America.

I was told by OnePlus tech support that the OP11 has DSDA which is the whole reason I bought it. They wouldn't let me return it saying that feature is listed on their website. But, funny I did see it there and then it was later removed. I'm still a bit annoyed.
[S740, S743 General] hongsit:
Seriously tempted to getting one of these and selling my X1. Before I do can somebody tell me if the phone is responsive, I've only seen videos of pre-release demos and it seems a bit slow.

Also, the length of the phone, it measures 11.6cm which is about 1cm longer than the other htc models i've had. Does it look big? does it fit comfortablly in your hand?

Doesn't seem to be a lot of people on here who has the phone, not sure why that is, as it looks great and has a lot of hardware!!
[S740, S743 General] omikr0n:
It's definitely the most responsive Windows Mobile device I have ever had or seen. 528MHz helps a lot here.

It looked long when I first picked it, but after a day or so I got used to it. It feels really good in your hand and pocket thanks to its long-but-narrow design.

And it certainly isn't small but I wouldn't call it big either. Let's say average. :)
[S740, S743 General] hongsit:
Thanks for you reply! That convinced me to go out and look at one then purchase one haha.

Very very nice phone. Need some help with profiles though. See my other post.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] :
At first it was only the mobile data not working (service state radio off, signal strength 0) in both MIUI and custom ROMs which led me to flash alternative ROMs hoping to find one that would work but now I found myself in a weird situation with remote data not working no matter what and Wi-Fi only working when flashing MIUI.

Where should I even start to address this problem? I tried:

different bootloaders (twrp 12 by zeelog, fox official and unofficial for mido)

flashing NON-HLOS.bin extracted from here

lineage os 20, pixelos, project elixir and base global MIUI version for my model

flashing latest firmware from here
[General Questions and Answers] mars088:
Hi. Since Youtube Vanced is installed as a system application on my MI 9T phone, it cannot be deleted directly. I also downloaded a program that removes System Application with Root from Play Store and removed vanced with this program. After the uninstallation was successful, I restarted the phone. However, after the phone stayed on the MI screen for 20 seconds, it restarted and switched to Fastboot mode. Every time I reboot, the phone goes into fastboot mode by waiting 20 seconds at the MI logo and restarting.

I have important information on the phone I need your help to somehow fix this problem instead of new software.

My phone model is Xiaomi Mi 9T
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
Just re-flash the ROM already installed on your device (also called dirty flashing).
[General Questions and Answers] mars088:
Hello, I did what you said. Everything is reset. All my apps were deleted. The data is not visible. When I enter TWRP, I can see the data, but it does not appear when the phone is on.
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
Dirty flashing (reflashing the same ROM or a newer version of it) doesn't usually cause your installed apps to get deleted. Is your phone able to boot now?

Backup the data partition from TWRP before you try anything else.
[General Questions and Answers] mars088:
Yes my phone boots.

But I don't have any of my installed apps. The data of these applications was important to me.
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
That's because your system is unable to read the data partition.

Are you able to install new apps? Try installing an app that isn't already installed before this problem started. I want to see where the system saves the data for this app.

Take a backup of all your files before proceeding further.
[General Questions and Answers] mars088:
I installed several apps. What should I do now? Where would you like me to look to see where the data is saved? By the way, thank you for your interest.
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
I'm not clear on what you mean here. What is the free space you see when you are booted into System?

If Data partition is not accessible from System, how/ where is it installing apps?
[General Questions and Answers] mars088:
I mean data. Pictures, music and other files. I couldn't notice it because it was uploaded late, but now I can see them in File Manager. My installed applications have been deleted. For example, the phone number I use in my Whatsapp account, the sim card is missing. If I install whatsapp now, it will not open because the code will not come.

By the way, I am writing with the help of translate. Excuse me if there is a mistake.

I come from a xiaomi mi 9t pro so I am kind of a noob when it comes to new Samsung stuff.

To me it seems that Samy still makes its phones run slower with every update so I want to revert back and debloat it.

Also is there any other steps that I need to follow if I can flash it besides the :

Turn on USB debugging - Reboot into download mode - Connect cable - Select BL - Ap - CSC.... Corresponding files, In Odin - Start?

Any help would be appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus] blackhawk:
As long as it's signed firmware and the significant digit is the same or higher than the bootloader version, you can flash it.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus] geo1098:
Thx a lot for your help.

I checked the bootloader number and everything went OK.

I took the original firmware from Sammobile and flashed it with Odin.
[General Questions and Answers] Psychofunk81:
Hello, I have a Chinese Anbernic RG505 retro game console and I'm having trouble with some apps not recognising when L2 and R2 are pressed. Games that offer a mapping function usually allow me to assign it, with the exception of Minecraft, pressing the buttons when mapping does nothing, but recognises all other buttons on the pad just fine. Controller detection apps register L2 and R2 just fine.

I tried to locate the controller mapping file, but there's about 25+ on the device and I don't know which one it is, or even if there's anything I can change to rectify this, or if it would need Anbernic to push out an update, which I'm not too hopeful on.

Anything I can do to investigate and possibly correct this?

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
It might be a limitation built into the Minecraft game app itself.
[General Questions and Answers] Psychofunk81:
Hi, thanks for the reply, it's not just minecraft it happens on, another I can think of is the xbox gamepass app, but playing over their Web app, it does work. There are a few other android native games that don't recognise them too. I suspect it has something to do with digital vs analogue mapping for the triggers.
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
The Chinese smartphone brands with their dual cell systems have brought about revolutionary change in our charging experience. That coupled with their special emphasis on cooling inside the smartphone make these devices excellent for all types of use.

But when looking closer, I see that their latest (mind blowing) charging speeds are limited to their midrange models. Their premium flagships still come with a couple of years old charging speeds. Normally, any new feature is first launched with premium devices, which then trickles down to less expensive devices over time.

What are we supposed to understand from this?

1. Are midrange smartphones from these brands a testing ground for latest technologies?

2. Are such charging speeds indeed not good for long term battery health?

3. Are there risks with these superfast charging speeds that OEMs don't want to disclose?
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Long-term battery preservation might be one possible reason.
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
They claim that the battery has well over 80% health even after 1500 charge cycles.

The first phone with 150W charging doesn't sacrifice battery health

realme has announced the GT Neo 3, packing 150W charging capabilities. Thankfully, this speed doesn't come at the expense of battery health.

www.androidauthority.com

There are similar and more impressive claims from all the brands. Are these claims not true then?
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Fast charging is OEM dependent. Several standards exist: Quick Charge, USB Power Delivery PPS & USB Power Delivery.

On one side, brands are pursuing ever faster charge times with exceedingly high-power solutions. But to do this safely requires expensive battery and circuit components, more powerful chargers, and all too often proprietary standards. Even the best standards push beyond the boundaries of ideal battery temperatures. On the other side are the slower but more universal standards like USB Power Delivery. Their universal nature makes them slower to embrace the latest and greatest solutions to charge quickly, but they are very safe and run cooler than the competition.

AFAIK Qualcomm’s Quick Charge 5 is the fastest Quick Charge implementation to date and can match the fastest standards around. But at the same time, it can be a more conservative standard than other ultra-fast charging technologies making their way to the market and that’s not necessarily a bad thing. It augments the USB Power Delivery PPS standard with the potential for faster charging speeds, as seen by the Smartphone for Snapdragon Insiders and Xiaomi 120W implementations. More importantly, temperature and usage-aware capabilities can ensure that the battery stays below 40°C while fast charging, an important marker that other standards are too eager to ignore in pursuit of faster charge times.

Charging speeds compared​

Quick Charge 5: 42 minutes to full, 45W max, 38.7°C peak

Quick Charge 3: 67 minutes to full, 18W max, 34.5°C peak

USB Power Delivery PPS: 51 minutes to full, 35W max, 34.2°C peak

USB Power Delivery: 65 minutes to full, 18W max, 32.5°C peak

IMO the temperature measurements are more interesting. Quick Charge 5 is 5°C cooler in terms of max and average temps compared to the hottest competition. In addition to the temperature-aware charging power, Quick Charge 5 uses new, efficient power management ICs which can be used in dual-mode to help dissipate heat.

Charging Temperatures compared​

Quick Charge 5 65W (SFSI): 95mAh/min, 38.7°C peak, 34.7°C average

USB PD PPS 35W: 78mAh/min, 34.2°C peak, 31.7°C average

OnePlus 65W: 155mAh/min, 43.2°C peak, 39.7°C average

Xiaomi 120W (QC5): 214mAh/min, 43.8°C peak, 39.2°C average

Infinix 160W: 363mAh/min, 41.9°C peak, 37.9°C average

Resume:

Qualcomm's Quick Charge 5 is retaining compatibility with popular standards while adding in extra features for its partners to leverage in the pursuit of lower temperatures and/or faster speeds. So is Quick Charge 5 any good? Absolutely. In fact, it’s one of the better fast charging standards available in handsets right now. But remember, the exact implementation can vary quick a lot depending on the smartphone in question.
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
This is what I'm trying to understand. The more expensive devices are not using these superfast charging technologies.

That's not true. The phones with superfast charging (100W and more) run just as cool as a Samsung, Pixel or Apple phone.

The reason for this is the presence of dual cells and how the technology has been implemented (heat is generated in the charger itself and not the phone).

USB PD and PPS have two benefits:

1. Universal compatibility which means you carry just one charger.

2. Reduce e-waste.

Without dual cells, it is almost impossible to match the charging speeds that we see in some of the phones today.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
To my knowledge any Lithium-ion battery ( most phones have it today ) will heat-up during charging / discharging with high current.

This is due to internal resistance of the battery and heat produced is equivalent to current square by internal resistance value.

This internal resistance of the battery is not physical but is in the existence due to chemical composition of the battery.
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
1. Heat management is done better in the Chinese phones.

2. Not all current goes into one battery. Only half of it goes to each cell. This is why this is an excellent implementation.
[General Questions and Answers] EricEsq:
1. I don't think that's necessarily the case but it does make up for an attractive marketing campaign for the mid rangers compared to the top end where other features are the stars. It's also likely that the top end market has chips that generate more heat, have wireless charging, etc which makes thermal dissipation a bit harder than your standard mid-ranger.

2. As you've quoted and as many other internal tests seem to indicate, across different Chinese OEMs, the tech has parallelly improved in the context of battery life and are on par, if not better than older generations.

3. Most symptoms should have shown up by now, seeing as the tech has been around for a while and in the least, over 10 million device "samples" with no major fiascos like the Samsung battery for that one model has happened yet.
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
This is true. No OEM has so far released a flagship phone with over 80 or 100W charging, even though they have midrangers that charge significantly faster. Most flagships are sticking to the 67W charging speeds.

This is why I wonder why there aren't using these technologies for the most premium phones.
[General Questions and Answers] EricEsq:
The Mi 13 ultra does go upto 90W. The Iqoo 11 also hits the 100W+ mark, if I remember right. I believe Vivo's x90 series also hits 80W. There's a few that go higher but they don't get released global. I remember one model of Iqoo going to 200W but that was limited to China.

As someone who daily drives a 67W charging 5000Mah phone, it comfortably gives me 2+ days of battery with one charge to 90+ and maybe an occasional 5-15 min top up while I shower. It's probably the economical sweet spot, beyond which, you're spending a bit more on cables, charging bricks (given that most Chinese OEMs come with the charger), safety systems for the charging board, etc.. There's no real need to go higher, for most people. Not until we can get higher density batteries and can hit 7000-10000mah capacities on phones.

A respectable amount of folk, among my peers, who use flagships also tend to go for wireless charging, from what I've observed on the Android space. Could be part of the reason too.
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
Xiaomi has a few models that charge much faster, yet their ultra flagship charges at under 90W.

OnePlus, iQOO, Oppo, Vivo, Realme are all BBK brands and use the same charging technology. Yet the flagships don't come with the fastest charging speeds their tech is capable of.

That's not true. This is like Apple saying they will never make a phone as big as the Samsung Note. Today we barely see a phone smaller than that.

Faster the better, assuming there is no compromise on safety or battery life.

Wireless charging is terrible as of today. It is way too slow, inefficient and generates a lot more heat than wired charging. Unless this technology sees radical changes, superfast wired charging will be the preferred charging tech.
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] MeepMan:
Hello,

INFO

1. I recently tripped Knox while disabling a system app. (first Samsung; I'm loving it)

It simply gave an error that Knox was tripped every time I rebooted. So I Reset. No fix.

2. So I tried to utilize the download mode to flash stock firmware (using ODIN); now the problem is:

The phone fails to boot past the animation which appears past the SAMSUNG Logo (does not get into OS). It ends up stuck there unless I bootloop it by holding volume buttons and power button and I can get into download mode. I got into recovery once but I don't remember how.

QUESTIONS

3. I would like to try using QPST to flash a new image at a lower level, but I don't know how to get QPST compatible Images? (ODIN files come as .MD5 archives).

4. Perhaps the problem is with the CSC Code? How do I find the CSC code when I cannot boot? I have the option to display a barcode. Model # S124DL(GP) [tracfone version]. I flashed the TFA ROM on ODIN.

If there is a solution that does not have to do with my methods, feel free to disregard it. Thanks if anyone can help with this issue.

I've bought it before one month by eBay.

Can You please help me, so what should I do?

The Bootloader, I think so, it's locked.

The only options to boot I have:

1. If I do the normal Boot, I can Boot to the Device Unlock.

2. i can boot into recovery.

I think I can Flash ADB Sideload, when I've booted into the recovery.

3. I can boot into Fastboot mode.
