[Xiaomi Pad 6] bupeapoop:
Hi Folks,

So after an impulse buy on the Xiaomi Pad 6, it turns out there are various accessories that are worth grabbing which I never knew at the time.

I went ahead and bought THIS Protective Cover over on AliExpress due to the great reviews and it being cheaper than most other sites:

There are two things right now that I'm struggling with. The first one is a tempered screen protector. There are umpteen choices out there and I'm looking for one that not only fits perfectly but is also responsive at the same time. Can anyone please share a link to either AliExpress or DHGate to one you'd recommend as I'm happy to wait it out for it to be delivered?

Secondly. I've heard a good few people now all recommend the following Logitech Bluetooth Multi-device Keyboard K480 - Wireless. Now can someone tell me where this is a stand alone keyboard and cannot attach directly to the Xiaomi Pad 6? Secondly, is it a decent keyboard worth the money?

Initially, I never intended on buying a keyboard for the tablet, but the more I think about, the more I like the sound of a mini keyboard. It can prove useful when writing emails or long length posts like this.

Any help would be great appreciated. Thanks everyone!
[Xiaomi Pad 6] endrancer:
can't speak for the k480 but i am currently using a k380 (without stand basically)... Overall the typing and quality of how the keyboard feels is quite good. Mostly using it in a more stationary setup when I don't wnat to run down the keyboard cover.
[Xiaomi Pad 6] bupeapoop:
Thanks for the input @endrancer. Do you find the keyboard useful enough to spend the £75 asking price for a model such as the K480? I already own a laptop but I usually have it in a fixed position that I rarely take anywhere. The Tablet with the Keyboard combination seems like it could prove useful whenever travelling or even lying in bed answering emails. I'm unsure whether or not it's overkill though?
[Xiaomi Pad 6] endrancer:
yet again, the k380 (which does Not include the stand) is being typed on for this Message in bed..... - so maybe thats a similar use case...

i think logitech brought out an incremental update to some of the keyboards which does not change a lots, but only design, where as it's other color combinations (i have green+greyish) i can not rate the k480 and it's price.

The regular k380 (not newest) was about 20-24 euro many times the last few months, for that price point i would certainly get it again. I am switching with this keyboard between using it on 3 different devices, all depending on the use case

- mi pad (even if i have the keyboard case)

- highest-end workstation laptop (programming)

- phone

the first two i will use the keyboard to not trash the keyboards of the devices too much e.g. when i am not needing to be mobile... not having num pad and some desktop-layout keys is a bit annoying, when it's needed... the keyboard is basically in the front pouch of my laptop sleeve at all times.

the latter when i have any constrains where i brought the keyboard but can only use my mobile to create texts .... that's not a very often case.

for the rather cheap price point, i would rather go for the k380 and get any other solution for a stand (in this message i am using a pillow right now actually) but a stand is just at about 10 € and there are lots that can be folded rather small as well. checking on my local amazon the white variant is 30€ incl. delivery... that would be fine however...
[Xiaomi Pad 6] bupeapoop:
Thanks for the swift reply.

It certainly seems like the K380 would save you some money. I may consider it considering I've now purchased a COVER/CASE that allows me to stand the tablet upright. That way, having the K480 isn't as necessary having the tablet side into the keyboard.

Do you have a laptop also? I have a laptop, but my laptop is not all that portable since I don't own a gaming PC so my laptop is usually in the same spot at all times. Honestly.. I find it a pain having to disconnect my keyboard, mouse and two monitors from the laptop so I keep it where it is.

What I like about the idea of a tablet with a keyboard is the fact it's far more portable with still a 11" screen which for basic web browsing, posting on messaging boards, watching videos on Youtube etc, seems like a great way to go about doing things.

Have you got the stylus? I considered it, but since I'm not a graphic designer, I really don't think it's all that important for me personally. Instead, a keyboard would be useful when replying to emails in record speed. You'd be able to complete tasks far quicker with a keyboard than you would using the touchscreen to respond to an email. Wouldn't you agree with that statement?

Do you think the K380 is equally as good as it's bigger brother for that extra saving? Do you use your tablet like you would a regular laptop? If so, I think I'm going to go out my way and finally buy a keyboard. The case/cover has already landed. I'm awaiting the screen protector then the keyboard and I think I've got a pretty slick device for travelling or even just chillin' out in my bed.

Let me know what you think and thanks again.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] username23444:
On hyperos there is an app called: System UI Plugin. Which basically is control center skin and notification bar and stuff. Is it possible to remove it?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cayman_1944:
Propably yes but i belive you need to be rooted

Open Settings

Find the App Manager: Look for an option labeled "Apps", "Applications", or "App Manager"

Locate System UI Plugin: Scroll through the list of installed apps until you find "System UI Plugin". Tap on it to open its details.

Remove or Disable: Depending on your device and the version of HyperOS you're using, you may have the option to either "Uninstall" or "Disable" the app. If you can uninstall it, that's the most straightforward solution. If uninstalling isn't an option, you can try disabling it. Disabling will stop the app from running and remove it from your app drawer, but it won't completely remove it from your device.

Confirm

Restart
[Vivo X Fold] Cyrax-001:
What the title says. This phone should have the LTPO 4.0 technology that allows the screen to switch its refresh rate between 1 - 120 hz. But what I noticed when using the display refresh rate option is that it is stuck at 120hz all the time even on the AOD!!

I switched from dark theme to light theme, and it started to switch back and forth between 60 - 120 hz, but never down to 1, and leaving the light theme on consumes more power because it means that all other apps will be displayed in the light theme as well...

is there a fix for this annoying issue? even with a third-party app like the Galaxy Max Hz (which doesn't work on Vivo apparently)
[Vivo X Fold] Prydateer:
Hi m8. Did you also buy the vivo Fold 3? Me too, how do you like it compared to the Xiaomi Fold 3 ?
[Vivo X Fold] Cyrax-001:
I bought the Vivo X Fold 2 and I own the Xiaomi Fold 2, I tried neither the Vivo Fold 3 nor the Xiaomi Fold 3.

But if I want to compare the Vivo Fold 2 to the Xiaomi fold 2 then the Vivo Fold 2 has the upper hand in every aspect except for the weight and thickness. where the Xiaomi Fold 2 is thinner and lighter.

The thing that I enjoyed the most about the Vivo Fold 2 is that I didn't need to do anything regarding notifications. everything works as usually out of the box.

Another major thing is the software regarding foldables, Vivo's software is way better in terms of splitting the display in two windows where you can adjust the width of the windows and split horizontally.
[Vivo X Fold] Cyrax-001:
So I just found out that the refresh rate scales down to 10 but only in the large inner display, and only with the light theme turned on ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ while it scales down to only 60 on the smaller outer screen
[Vivo X Fold] Prydateer:
I like my vivo X Fold 3 but the only major drawback for me is that you cannot get icon badges for unread messages for Outlook
[Vivo X Fold] Cyrax-001:
Same here. My Vivo X Fold 2 makes me completely forget the Xiaomi Fold 2 ... Performance and battery life are just amazing. In addition to the robust build quality.
[Redmi Note 12 Pro / Pro Plus 5G] username23444:
Is there any way of doing that without installing any custom rom as there arent any custom roms available. If not possible to disable it, then i can maybe try to modify it. Thx in advance.
[OnePlus 12] freeza:
Does anyone have photomoji, magic compose, change thread colors, or full screen reaction animations working with root on google messages with this phone?

I've had this phone for two months and have not got any of those features and am in the beta program for google messages. I do have the change colors option for text conversations, but it does not work. It says the color is changed but never actually changes.

I was able to get a lot of those features working by installing an older version and using the debug menu but i wanted them to naturally roll out to me so i'm using the latest beta version and have been for weeks and none of them have gotten enabled. I've tried clearing data and uninstalling all updates on google messages to go back to the factory installed version then update from the play store and still nothing.
[OnePlus 12] Radulfr:
I used gms flags app and gappsmod app both for different features but both had options for google messages and I had all of the ones you listed on the op12 rooted on NA version. Now I did get rid of google messages in favor of switching to textra because I wasn't caring for the lack of customization in the google messages app. Every new install/flash I try to use google messages but eventually get fed up with it and just switch back to textra
[Sony Xperia 1 V] chetszot:
Hello

I'm Samsung Galaxy S23 terribly disappointed user and I can't wait for the release of Xperia 1 VI as I'm considering to switch. However, I have never ever had any Sony phone and before I decide on Xperia 1 VI, I would like to make sure it meets my requirements, based on Xperia 1 V user's feedback.

Could you please share your review after nearly 1 year of your Xperia 1 V usage?

Does it have any hidden hardware flaws (such as eg. Samsung Galaxy's S23 "bananagate" problem - widespread hardware main lens issue that Samsung has denied and never actually fixed)

Is the software stable? Does the phone reboot / crash / hang under heavy load and/or randomly?

How long after Google's Android 14 announcement did you receive Android 14 update?

Do the microphones handle both phone calls and very loud environments well (both clear voice during phone call / loudspeaker call and clear recordings of loud environments such as concerts / loud acoustic instruments)?

Do you have any other insights about your experience regarding Xperia 1 V?

I would be grateful for your thoughts. In case you are interested in Samsung - I will be happy to assist and share my experiences instead (ofc in Samsung dedicated threads :) ).
[Sony Xperia 1 V] patrickt:
I'm older than most trees so when I have a problem I first look to myself as the variable most like at fault. As I've sat here thinking I can't remember any problems with my Xperia 1V that can be attributed to the phone. I'm deaf and only use the phone to make a call when I can schedule the call and plug my earphones into the jack. I use Google Messages a lot and frequently get a notice saying my message couldn't be delivered but it has, in fact, been delivered.

My phone is carried on a belt holder, lives in a case and has a glass screen protector. It does occasionally get hot when it's charging but not often and I don't know if it's causing a problem.

I don't do videos but I take a lot of photos. I enjoy Photography Pro and think the phone performs well.

I'm eagerly awaiting the arrival of the Xperia 1 VI. At 82 you don't dilly-dally.View attachment 6099782
[Sony Xperia 1 V] chetszot:
Thank you for your reply and attached photos :). I truly appreciate your will to share your experience :)

Any other Xperia 1 V users?
[Sony Xperia 1 V] blackhawk:
Coming from One UI you'll feel the profound loss of the customization it brings. No stock phone matches it.

While the Sony cams should be excellent, it's the UI is what what would make me pause.

Samsung has more bt sound options with their proprietary Scalable codec and LDAC but no 3.5mm jack.

New N10+'s are still available loaded with Android 10 (11 and up suck are part of your problems). Used ones are likely loaded with 11 or 12 but are inexpensive; new ones still command a high price.

Optimized the Snapdragon variant gets 10-13 hours SOT and even today has snappy fast performance. Expandable storage up to 1tb.

Very good cams that are more than adequate.

Build quality is excellent. I run two. The oldest has around 10k hours on it and the display is still perfect; no difference when compared to its newer twin at zero hours. Only repairs have been 2 replacement batteries. The N10+ was Samsung's zenith in my opinion and Android 9 was Google Android's. Android 10 gets slightly less SOT and is slightly more of a pain but not near as bad as 11 and up!

I'm considering buying a 3rd one. At this point I have zero faith in Samsung or Google Android to give me what I want today. Most likely for years to come judging by their lame track record these last 4 years.

So there's that... the N10+ remain a joy to use, continue to fulfill their mission and require very little maintenance. A factory reset/reload lasts me years.

Less downtime means more playtime.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] endolith:
The question is about Xperia 1 V. What is "N10+"?
[Sony Xperia 1 V] blackhawk:
Note 10+. I've considered the Sony flagships.

They have good hardware. The UI is the issue.

The Samsung customization is excellent and the Sony be a downgrade; like going from an Android to an iPhone. I haven't found anything to replace my N10+'s.

Sony support tends to suck but Samsung does too. Parts availability may be more an issue with Sony. I've dealt extensively with Sony in the early 2000's and they were terrible to put it mildly.

If you do go with the Sony I be interested what you think. I'm hoping their UI will mature more in a few years.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] patrickt:
I find it amazing that a Samsung user spends time reading a Xperia 1V forum and then responds to a post about your experiences with an Xperia with a long post on how much more he likes his Samsung.

I have owned other phones in years passed but since I like Photography Pro and using a phone with a camera that encourages me to take photos I don't bother reading Samsung, or Poco, or Huawei, or Motorola forums and certainly wouldn't post to tell them about my Xperia.

Seems strange. Oh, and although I'm old and not a geek, I have Nova 8 to customize my Xperia. I also bought an inexpensive Samsung phone recently for a friend who is older than I am. I helped set it up and Samsung's "oh, aren't I special" user interface made me long for my vanilla Android.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] endolith:
What's that? I'm trying to decide if I should get the Xperia 1 V
[Sony Xperia 1 V] patrickt:
I'm old and no geek but I think it's called a launcher. If you go to Playstore and type in Nova Launcher you can download the free or Prime version. I've used it for years to customize my screen and like it.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Brachiahealer8:
I have not had any problems with costumization coming from samsung. To be fair I also use root + Pixel Xpert and some other apps
[Sony Xperia 1 V] blackhawk:
My apologies.

With your level of interest you'll likely never get a Samsung optimized; as such they tend to be hot running battery hogs, little terrors.

Age has little to do with learning but there's a definite learning curve with Androids and especially the Samsung variant.

iPhones run well out of the box. Updates for them generally integrate seamlessly. Personally I don't like iPhones but they just work.

If you're interested in photography a small stand alone Canon camera might be a better solution. Smartphones are harder to shoot with and the interface is poorer than most dedicated cams. B&H Photo is the place to shop for any camera or cam equipment. Their staff is top shelf and their inventory is immense in person, online or by phone. Canon offers excellent customer support especially for pro cams.

All my numerous dealings with their cam division has been excellent. The only other company that provides that level of support is Denon.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] patrickt:
I have lovely cameras in my closet but I got tired of carrying all the parts around. When I realized phone cameras were getting pretty good I also realized I was no longer making 16/20 prints. I've did okay with my Nexus, Pixels, and Huawei but since they did most of the photography they were boring. I realized in 1979 that Apple had a business model in the computers that was to totally control the hardware, softerware, and user. They used that same business model with their phones.

If you actually want to do photography, get an Xperia. You can take great snapshots with any camera.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] blackhawk:
I had an fairly expensive Sony cam in 2004, it was dog meat. Build Q was poor. I been inside it and my Canon pro cams and 5D. The Canon's had good build Q...

Sony laptops and phones might be ok now but everything else they made was junk. The N10+ has very good cams and I capture great images with them. One of the reasons I recommend it.

However you'll bang into similar problems like you're now experiencing with the S23.

The reason Apple's work so well is everything is under their control, hardware, firmware and software. That's not all a negative. The bottom line stops at Apple unlike Android which is all over the place. The end result is a more predictable and reliable (usually) device with less user flexibility.

Apple's are easy to use; it didn't take me long to get it to do basic tasks. I used it for work. I didn't like it's settings layout or lack of customization but it ran flawlessly.

Go somewhere that lets play with the different models you're interested in. Get a feel for them.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] chetszot:
Thank you for your honest recommendations and opinions :)

Regarding small cameras - starting from S7 I have abandoned carrying an additional DLSR and/or compact cameras for vacations. S7 proven me that the image quality from top smartphones are far good enough to take quick holiday pics and videos. What I hated with DLSR or small compact camera is that this is an additional stuff to carry and take care on and it takes far more time to take any picture. Phone is always in a pocket and within a reach and taking a picture is quick and easy. On holidays I want to focus on the reality and NOT look into any screen and configure anything to take a picture.

Regarding iPhones - this is a no go way because of iOS technical limitations and UX dumbness facts that industry rarely mention as is blindly taught by Apple marketing what to say and they blindly repeat this bull****. Although they have always had good cameras, they were never the best in my opinion, except from current iPhone 15 series. Given how bad iOS UX is and how limited this system is, iPhones are no go for me (I work profesionally with both Android and iOS + I gave iOS a chance and had iPhone for few weeks as daily driver - terrible experience). Too bad as 15 series's camera is really, really good.

Based on your opinions I will certainly have a look at Xperia 1 VI once it launches, but hopefully this time around Sony will follow industry standard and announce longer software support for such an expensive device.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] endolith:
Should I buy 1 V or wait until 1 VI? Will 1 V drop in price after 1 VI comes out?
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Haldi4803:
About the Camera...

The Main lens is pretty good! No complaints there.

Sadly the ultra wide has some colour differences to the main lens :( but quality is good.

The zoom Camera is garbage. 5.2x optical zoom isn't really good quality and if you go digital zoom to 10x or 15x it's utter trash. Just don't.

Whenever you open the camera you can hear the zoom lense getting into position with a very silent *clack* you'll probably never hear it. But once you do it annoys you to no end.

About software.

It's a widely accepted fact that the auto Mode is mediocre. Sometimes you can make great shots. But most they're just decent.

But if you have the time and knowledge on photography you can get some pretty impressive shots out of manual mode.

The battery life is also on the positive side. Even though it has a 4k Display that drains battery quite heavily.

Standby time can go up to 5-7 days if you don't use your phone. Normal usage is 1.5-2.5 days.

Not fast enough, still one of the first manufacturers that shipped A14.

But then again too fast, as it was quite buggy.

Yes. In Pro Mode you can even limit the mic Volume.

But even Auto mode does a decent job with sound quality.

Here two examples.

Probably by 50-100 but not much.

Here is the Sony Xperia 1 IV

[OnePlus 11] Bolts27:
Has anyone found a fix to enable dual sim data switching with the OnePlus 11? Currently I am forced to enable 1 SIM or the other for data as opposed to switching on demand to use both SIM cards. This is causing the internet to drop all the time and the inability to send MMS with google messages from either number.

ANY' assistance humbly appreciated!!
