The 8 pro for me was it's highlight....I "upgraded" to the 10 pro.... It wasn't an upgrade... So glad nothing exists.
[Nothing Phone 2] ImjustSaiyan92:
3T was my personal favorite, followed by the 7 pro.

Strangly, NP2 reminds me a lot of the 3T and idk why.

Update to your Q:

Sorry to say but after the last weeks this Phone went to No.1 on my ****list....

CustomRoms are buggy to say the least - not saying this is the devs fault - but NP Bullcrap AOSP policy. (you can't polish a turd and expecting it to turn into gold...)

Going back to Stock is at least a 4h crapfest. (without copying your data)

Downloading the OEMRoms...

and then do the payload-dumper-go Mambo...

then to the flash_all.bat boogaloo...

then relock the bootloader since OTA won't work with unlocked bootloader. #*#*682*#*# isn't faster as well, also this mode is a b1tch, since not all updates can be installed, thankfully OTA after 252a started to work again and 255 was installing.

then unlocking bootloader...

thanking @dladz for providing the boot.img...

doing the copy and neorestore...

This Song & Dance routine is a big crapshow. I was literally seconds away of throwing this phone in the trash. Even with xiaomi BS this Phone tops the charts.... I already had a new phone in my amazon cart...

First and Last Nothing Phone for me.

[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
I'm on PA FE and it's utterly brilliant... I have the nothing launcher running and the NOS cam, it's pretty much perfect, battery is on par if not better than stock, definitely Vs the stock kernel.

I hear you with going back to stock but the fastboot method from @spike0en is a walk in the park, it's very easy.

From that point onwards updates will work, you simply need to uninstall magisk, the bootloader really makes no difference at all, I've been able to update with my bootloader unlocked every time, I unlocked on day one.

Flash time for fastboot ROMs is around 10 minutes from flash to boot.

Sounds like you've had a hard time mate but you're probably doing things inefficiently, but I don't think that's representative of what you should be doing, rather the way the cards have landed for you.

Fastboot ROM to go back to stock and to update, if you're updating then you don't need to wipe.. you will need to follow the guide to the letter and make sure you're on the latest driver, this last bit is key and probably what caused me most problems.

Personally I'd prefer to have the flash tool working or for the device to be much more accepting of updates, I think that'll get fixed in time, bare in mind it's only the 2nd device from nothing, so we have to adjust our expectations a bit, for me this is the top device in the world at the moment, yes it has short comings but it is still a beast rivaled only by the latest pixel.

I think give the fastboot flash from spike a whirl and it'll solve 90% of your issues...

You also shouldn't need payload dumper really, unless you're getting your own boot images.

👍🏼
[Nothing Phone 2] Buster99:
PA was the only one i did not test but all the others had issues be it android auto not working or abysmal battery (-70% over night...) or strange forcecloses or stuff appearing in my firewall that should not phone home... or play service sync issues, or issues with nextcloud contact sync. etc etc etc.

maybe when i cooled off i give https://paranoidandroid.co/phone2 a whirl but for now - rooted stock with all the quality of live things missing. (btw. i had the OP 8 in my Shoopping Cart since I tested it for 3 Weeks when it was new and it had LOS support)
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
Ah I've had none of that mate, PA and PA FE are the only ones I've used and they're both solid.

Stock is superb I can't fault your logic there at all, everything works great.. that's literally what I've done, I had issues so I went back to stock, bricked it, recovered... Stayed on stock for a while, got bored... Couldn't update, spike helped me to update with fastboot, so easy mate.

Then when my phone was like that, I just asked about flashing PA FE and since then I've not looked back.

AHH the 8 pro I had, what a phone that was.. loved it. 👍🏼
[Nothing Phone 2] chrome6boy:
I come from a Redmi Note 10 pro to the Nothing Phone 2. I am a flashaholic and was a little disappointed with the lack of ROMs initially compared to the huge number of custom roms available on Sweet.

However since then I've tried Matrixx, SomethingOS and now PA. These roms are not that buggy and quite comparable to stock. Stock cam is missing from these roms but now AOSPAFE has it, which means more roms will have it in future.

I do not use fastboot to flash roms. Ofox works really well for flashing custom roms and also for returning to stock.

I however think that the stock rom is so good compared to MIUI on the Redmi that many people will not even try custom roms for a year or so.
[Nothing Phone 2] xtcislove:
I had root since it exists. With NextDNS and Stock or Stock Like Android roms on good phones like Pixel or Nothing the need for root is too small imo. Yes i would like to use a custom kernel but for what? 65% instead of 58% battery at the end of the day?
[Nothing Phone 2] Buster99:
with the current CR droid my device barely had enough battery for a workday....

charged all night till 5am had to recharge with ~38% at 6pm and only very light use....

stock is better but I still miss my Poco F2 that had support and battery galore (until it didn't cause the board fried and stopped charging%) )
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
Stock with Arters at the moment it's unbeatable.. but I'm working with some of the guys on TG to fix that... They're making kernels and I'm testing.

Hoping it'll be the same or better.
[Nothing Phone 2] Buster99:
I'm seriously considering the new Poco F6 [bit cheaper than the NP2) or Xiaomi 14 Pro (around 900€) once AOSP hits.

This phone has too many issues.... even on stock. It still has the prob with AFWall when using 4g/5g. At least Whatsapp 4 Desktop works on stock (hasn't worked on AOSP* for me)

also on stock - notificationalerts are loud when i test/set them but are quieter when they occur naturally when a message is received...

this thing is haunted....
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
Have you got flip to glyph turned on?
[Nothing Phone 2] Buster99:
nah, it's turned off.
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
I was missing some notifications myself and that's as the culprit..

Give Dolby Atmos a whirl..
[Nothing Phone 2] Buster99:
nah got problems with it and then tried PA - got blacksceen issues that screen won't come on... PA dropped for the Poco F6 and that is really enticing. Except the USBC 2 Connection its a nice phone
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
Yea same with 8 pro, I went from that to the 10 and it felt like a downgrade..

Gutted.
[Introductions] Tyler2485G:
Hi, I need help getting my moto g power 5G (XT2311DL) off the blacklist. To make a long story short. My buddys phone wasn't working and to check to see if it was his phone or service, he put my SIM card on it and then back into my phone. Come to find out, his phone was blacklisted by a court order (still have no idea why) and ever since he put it back into mine. It hasn't worked. I tried getting new service provider (I had straight talk) with T-Mobile and at&t but unfortunately my phone won't transmit/communicate with there servers. At least I think I'm saying all that right. But probably not. I really need help getting my phone off the blacklist and back working like it should. I had my carrier unlocked about 1 week before this happened, but don't know if straight talk locked it back because of the blacklisting. They say it's still carrier unlocked, but they are also just reading off a cp screen and don't really have a clue what's going on I tried explaining to straight talk that my phone wasn't supposed to be blacklisted but after 2 weeks of 4 or more hours a day trying to talk to someone that had could help but never could. I gave up on that way. Please help me and im willing to pay for the service as long as it works. Let me know of you can help and are will. I have only posted this on here cause I figured this is where all the smart people are that can actually help me and not just try an scam me. Please let me know ASAP and we'll go from there, thanks XDA community.

[XPERIA X1 General] msalmank:
Hi,

On 1st Jan i had to do a hard-reset of the device. Since then, regardless of the applications i've installed... my Xperia has been working with remarkable performance! But Alas! today after i was testing out new software, i ran into a new problem.

Though the performance of the device hasn't lagged, but whenever i do a soft reset, i get an error saying 'a problem has occurred with services.exe'.

Any ideas? It seems to me that it is starting something that doesn't exist anymore? Is there a startup manager app that i could use or something like that?

Best Regards.

Salman Khalid.
[XPERIA X1 General] msalmank:
Oh never mind... i found that SKTools has a startup app manager, but that didn't help. I also checked missing links in registry and stuff, but still no luck... so i ended up hard resetting the phone. (true that the error came only once when you soft-reset the phone and that the phone's performance was not at all degraded, but it was annoying me crazy! :))
[XPERIA X1 General] Mark A Cilenti:
What is the piece of software you have intalled that prior to the error ?

I think Services.exe is a system file, if that is missing or damaged you may have to do another hard reset, aslong as youve saved everything to your Pc or memory card, its ok.

One thing you have to watch with a hard reset is the system files left on the memory card from your prev install, using file explorer, click menu, show all files, and look for any folder on the memory card called things like cache, programs, MSMETADATA, WMDRM, etc, basicall anything you have not specifically copied there manually.

If you dont delete these files windows will boot up and get confused and try to follow settings you had for your last install.
[XPERIA X1 General] msalmank:
I installed over 10 different apps in under 10 minutes and it coule have been any one of them. Services.exe was neither corrupted nor missing, as that would have resulted in continuous errors, but like i said; the error came up only once once i rebooted.

Anyhow... i've already hard-reset the device after being unable to figure out what caused the error. As for the MicroSD card... i did a full format of the card as i can easily copy all the stuff back in from my laptop again as needed... :D

Thanks!

Is there a No-Verity file to flash for Samsung A71? Or should I stick with VBMeta-Disable file?View attachment 6101321
[Xiaomi Poco X6 Pro / Redmi K70E] Kotetsunix:
Good morning everyone,

I own a Poco X6 Pro 12/512, and I've been very happy with it since I bought it as soon as it was released.

A few weeks ago, I purchased a Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 and I've noticed a problem.

Background:

After setting up the watch, I wanted to back it up. I followed all the possible guides on the internet and Samsung forums, but nothing worked. In the meantime, the watch would disconnect once a week, and I was forced to factory reset the watch to reconnect it (and I was without a backup).

One day, while reconnecting the watch, I went to the Bluetooth settings on my phone to search for the smartwatch. I accidentally tapped on my phone's name (the part you can rename), and it prompted me to update the Bluetooth (I assume a Bluetooth driver or firmware update). The phone restarted, and since then, SmartSwitch has been backing up the watch to the phone, and for now (fingers crossed), it hasn't been disconnecting.

Problem:

The problem I'm writing about is that every now and then (always when the two devices move beyond the range), they disconnect, and the phone does not reconnect to the watch unless I restart it. As soon as the watch and phone are restarted and turned on, they connect without problems.

Additional Notes:

I have tried restarting the watch and phone multiple times.

I have ensured that both the watch and phone are running the latest software.

I have tried disabling and re-enabling Bluetooth on both devices.

I have tried factory resetting the watch.

I am at a loss for what to do next, and I would appreciate any help that you can provide.

hyper Os 1.0.7.0.UNLEUXM

Thank you for your time.
[Xiaomi Poco X6 Pro / Redmi K70E] flumpster:
I could reproduce it by turning Bluetooth off on the phone then back on and you could see it in Bluetooth devices say connecting and then it would change to saved instead of connected until you manually clicked it. I finally fixed it by going into developer options on the phone and changing Bluetooth AVRCP version from the default of 1.5 to 1.4. 1.6 option was there also and I tried that first but the problem persisted.
[Xiaomi Poco X6 Pro / Redmi K70E] Kotetsunix:
Thank you. I will try thi option

I'm facing an error when uninstalling or deleting an application wherein the app data isn't deleted or the uninstallation doesn't happen smoothly. Sometimes, even after uninstalling, the application remains visible even though it's supposed to be gone. It seems like a restart might be needed, which isn't ideal.:(:(

In android 13, it runned smoothly. But since the android 14 update popped up, phone is lagging in many situations, like scrolling in the browser or in google photos. Also, battery is worse, and phone gets heated more frequently. I even tried to factory reset, with the same result.

Is there a way to solve this? Or maybe to roll back to android 13 without risks? I don't have root nor open bootloader since this phone is awful to hack...

Thank you all!

In your cause, maybe you can use OPUpdate and try to reflash the full system again after a full reset.

Thank you, kind sir :)
[OnePlus 10 Pro] pavoleo:
I've been using android 13 for a few days and I have to say... WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR TO DOWNGRADE?.

Phone is smooth as hell, battery has improved, and I have more personalization options (more fonts).

I recommend everyone to downgrade to android 13, and you'll enjoy a flagship again. Remember to disable automatic updates. For me, it will stay like this until I change it.
[OnePlus 10 Pro] Yaj00j:
I never upgraded past android 13 (not 13.1, c.26 jan 2023 build) and so far have not had any issues. I even discovered a way to disable updates on 2215 rom and even blocked automatic updates of google play services (not the play store) using lsposed module called disable updates.
[OnePlus 10 Pro] pavoleo:
How did you do it? I disabled automatic install, and left the update that popped up without downloading, and so far so good.
[OnePlus 10 Pro] Yaj00j:
It's not the final solution, even after I did all that, once a week I would open my phone to a popup message, telling me that I haven't updated for so and so days, and have the options to update now or remind me later... and sometimes I would accidentally just tap on update now, as the popup wasn't in notifications but in the center of the screen. I feared that it might just do a windows 10 thing and eventually force the update.

this is how to disable updates altogether:

You need to be rooted. (be warned, unlocking bootloader will kill netflix HD and other streaming services HD quality)

You need a PAID app called "Disable Application". It lets you manually toggle the services, providers and receivers of any apk file on your system. this app needs root to work.

Follow this guide to disable the update related stuff in Google Play Services.

The OnePlus 10 Pro Debloat Thread

Hey guys. I know no one asked. And I know there are 13,126 different threads across different sites for debloating your phone. Of course, none of those are universal, and none of them are tailored to the device in-question. My device details ...

xdaforums.com

there are screen shots in that post.

You need LSposed for magisk, and a module called "Disable Updates", "Update locker", once you have that, open the module settings and add Google Play Services to the list.

This is to stop Play Services from updating through google play store (which is automatic) as after each update, it resets the phone system update options that you had disabled from the previous "diaable application" app and you will have to redo them every time play services gets updated in the background.

Lastly, just disable Google services Framework to remove the annoying red update notification dot which is present in the settings. (if google services framework is disabled, you will not be able to add google accounts to the device, however the accounts already added will work just fine. don't know what else it will break, I don't use Gpay and wallet (don't know if they work or not), so other than those everything seems to work just fine).

[Samsung Galaxy A51 5G Questions & Answers] HGStyleOfficial:
Hello, I have a Samsung Galaxy A51 5G at home, but it is reserved to enterprise use only, and needs an enterprise Microsoft account for some reason.

However, the enterprise gave me the phone and told me they don't care about it and if I unlock it I can use it.

Is there is any way to do so ? Because I can't even access the settings, since the initial setup is locked and asks for an enterprise Microsoft account.

Anyways, I found a way to get internet access (access to Google) on the phone:

1. Setup the phone until you get to the WiFi connection part

2. Connect your phone to your WiFi network

3. Hit "back' until you get back to the first screen

4. Click the button with the man on it

5. Scroll down and click "installed apps"

6. Click "Notification sounds"

7. Click "Settings"

7. Authorize the app to access microphone

8. Go back to the screen where you can click "Settings" and click on "Settings"

9. Click "send feedback"

10. Click "do not send audio data"

11. Click "close" in the popup

12. At the very bottom, click "Terms of use"

13. At the very top, click the Google logo

14. Boom ! You get the Google homepage where you can search stuff !

Can anyone help ? Thanks in advance.
