I suspect discoloration and black crush are unrelated symptoms. I've had my S9 over two years, I've had black crush issues right from day one (particularly noticeable in Netflix content at the moment) but I've not had any screen discoloration. I do tend to make sure I run my screen fairly low...

Permission denied on that path is not unusual, some devices simply don't support accessing that path over ADB. To delete that path, USB debugging needs to have already been enabled in the device's developer options so you can delete the gesture.key file and regain access. I've had a similar...

I have an S9 (SM-G960F), UK SIM-free unlocked, running the latest OTA Android 10, One UI 2.5, Baseband G960FXXUCFTJ1, Kernel 4.9.118-19869059, Build number QP1A.190711.020.G960FXXSCFTK2. My network, Three UK, runs two APNs - the main one "three.co.uk" is a CG-NAT APN which almost all users use...

Issue seems common to every user. Looks like Samsung cleverly removed the ability to edit/update your own home address from their web site and the Members app and nobody's realised this.

Tried that one on my SM-G960F (UK/Europe dual sim with the Exynos 9810), it doesn't work. FC when trying to open. Ended up using GCam_5.1.018.177470874.41362666_IDan_N6_3.5_fix.apk via this Reddit thread (link to my comment with my findings...

Ah, so the ADB remap methods won't screw with anything? I'm right handed, but I've always held phones interchangeably in either hand. As I often keep the phone in left pocket, I'll typically hold with left hand and only use right hand for fast typing / pinch zooming. Most annoyingly, using...

Compared to my LG G4, I think the S9 has a tendency to slightly overexpose normal photos, even with HDR enabled. I find I constantly adjust the EV compensation (dragging the slider after tapping to focus). As a point-and-shoot camera, it's surprisingly versatile and copes fairly well. The "Pro"...

The Bixby button location is in the perfect location to be a left-handed-hold camera shutter button. :rolleyes: But I don't really want to trip Knox just to remap its operation... I wish the volume rocker was about one button-worth lower than it is. It's about 2cm too high, another Bixby button...

This is also happening on my new Samsung Galaxy S9 running Android 8.0.0, Samsung Experience 9.0. I'm talking to their support to try and get them to take it on as an issue.

Just installed v4 on my replacement G4. As always, working great - and the different icon is very useful to quickly differentiate between stock and your ported version (I put both camera icons in their own group on the bottom bar of the launcher). Perhaps in future, an option to either change...

Just installed - 60 fps video works well, and camera switching works (though the "Beautify" slider has no effect - fine by me!). However, whenever I try to switch to external SD for storage, the app says "Storage Full. Not enough space on SD card. File will be saved to internal storage. To free...

Sadly not so on this stock ROM, video recording with XCam only uses the bottom mic (by the headphone socket) even with stereo recording enabled in the video options in XCam LG Settings. Stereo recording works fine with the stock camera app. I'vet tried blowing into the mics and listening on...

I've seen it's possible to have a user profile photo display as your user icon when you swipe down to show the notification bar in Lollipop. However, mine just shows the generic bobblehead icon - although I have a perfectly good profile photo on my Google account. Am I being an idiot and...

I bought the GLAS.tR NANO SLIM (SGP10921) for my G3 and fitted it when I got the phone. Sadly, even treating it carefully, it developed a hairline fracture on the left side of the display -- in a very graceful arc -- and has now cracked in a lovely semicircle. It's still sticking to the screen...

I only tried this for the first time with my FiiO E7 tonight, but it worked first time. I also coincidentally did an OTA Android update to V20h: I'm just using a standard micro-to-mini USB cable I purchased from Lunashops a few months ago.

I've just noticed additional noise whilst music is playing (on top of the beeps when plugging in and hiss whilst no sound is playing). This noise is best describable as unwanted distortion on sound of particular amplitude, though a quick experiment just now makes me wonder whether the hardware...

Sadly the problem has not in fact gone away with Lollipop, I posted in earnest... Then noticed it when I was listening whilst going to sleep. :(

You're correct, I posted a bit eagerly and I noticed it later. :(

Just jumping in as I did all the 4.4.2 updates (up to v10i (or V10L, whichever it is) on my unlocked UK handset, then did the Android 5.0 update tonight. Update: unfortunately the problem's NOT fixed with LG stock Lollipop, unlike I first thought. (posted about this elsewhere first...

I was experiencing this problem on 4.4.2 -- I did all of the LG software updates to bring me to v10L (UK unlocked model) but the problem persisted. the last update it offered me was the Android 5.0 OS update -- hurray! I installed but while I thought it fixed the audio problem, it did not...

I settled for the 16GB/2GB model in the end, one site's performance reviews actually rated it slightly higher than the 3GB model... Certainly no complaints now it's upgraded to Lollipop, very fluid and responsive. (out of the box on 4.4.2 was a bit laggy.)

I ordered the Ringke Slim case and Supcase black/clear case to do some comparisons. They were both pretty cheap. Foxgguy2001 already did a pretty comprehensive review of the Supcase (and posted a Photoshop template for the back, very handy!) so I won't do an entirely new review. However, just...

Found an awkward bug - I set XCam as my default lockscreen camera (hold down Volume Down after turning the screen on) -- the camera loads, but the gallery thumbnail button shows a 'locked picture' image. If you take a picture, it is not saved to your device.. I then opened the app after...

I use RAVPower stuff - have a 6,000 mAh pocket sized charger and a 14,000 mAh "RP-PB13" model. Charged my phone from flat this morning, quick charging. Used these for a while and very happy with them.

On my SGS3 (running CM 10.1.3) I have an odd problem where audio files have gone missing from the media database, although the file is obviously still on the phone (and I can't find them with ES Explorer or even manually looking through the SQLite database). Example: See how the alarm sound...

I didn't read the whole thread but independently made myself a direct download link (as, somewhat ironically, you can't see a Download button if using a mobile browser). Download all the OGGs in one neat zip (autogenerated by GDocs on-demand): http://bit.ly/gs3sounds. Cheers to OP!

I bought a handset a few years ago from eBay - HTC Touch Pro2 - which the owner had obviously reported lost. The IMEI was listed on the CEIR blacklist; both my Telco (T-Mobile) and the original Telco (Vodafone) said that removal of the blacklist was impossible as the bar was permanent. Might be...

You may have to use another ROM; in my i9305 ROM (locked to T-Mobile, bought SIM-free) I have the choice of "3G only" or "2G/3G/4G" as baseband selections. I can't explicitly choose '2G only'. There may be a third party app which you could grab to force baseband if you're happy to root your...

Me too! :) Success first time here, thanks very much fmkilo. From a 10.2.6 factory install, I used bin4ry's root script - took a few goes to get it going right (installed SDK and plugged in, device showed as "Kindle"; then installed Kindle HD ADB driver and device shows up as Android Composite...

Just been given a new Kindle Fire 7" (UK stock), running 10.2.6_user_2630020 out the box. Downloaded KFU 0.9.6 and followed preinstall steps (install drivers first, plug in device, run KFU) but although it inited the ADB daemon it's showing as Status Offline and FFF can't connect. Also the...

Seconded - it's absolutely foolproof and so easy to do. Just pop the RHODIMG file onto the card and stick it in SPLed bootloader mode - then go make a cup of coffee. Awesomely simple.

This is mine: Vodafone UK (factory unlocked) RHOD100. Euro 3G (GSM) model. Running Jackos S3 WWE (WM6.5) for what it's worth. Probably well overdue an OS update. ;)

Fascinating. I've been using WiMoSpeed for a while to boost my Rhodium's performance when needed; it's been a useful stopgap. I remember when Android experiments were just beginning with the device but I honestly haven't followed their progress; is there now a fairly stable and useable flavour...

And the advantage to that is, if it is a bad sensor, you could always perform some surgery on your device and install a new screen & digitiser as I did on mine. I had a problem with a slightly rattly earpiece afterwards but I think it was something I did. Handily I was able to purchase a...

I had to replace the screen and digitiser on my TP2 after shutting it in the boot of a car (clever huh?). I accomplished the swap surprisingly easily after buying a pre-built screen and digitiser from Hong Kong for about £25. It even came with a spudger to help me take it apart :) I followed a...

I know this is an old thread, but it still ranks highly in Google. What this person is seeing is Opera 10's poor image rendering algorithm which forms part of its Adaptive Zoom feature - if you type opera:config in the address bar then expand the top Adaptive Zoom section of options, change...

Also if you're flashing a lot of ROMs from different chefs, read up on Task29 (and why it's beneficial for your device) - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=649191

This sounds either like a broken / damaged ribbon cable (the "flat cable" the previous poster was referring to) or a damaged / broken digitizer. On my old phone, the digitizer slowly broke - first the accuracy of the touchscreen would slide, then it got to the point where it wouldn't register...

Also TouchLockPro might be able to help you, if you turn on debug (and enable the correct feature in the options) it will log any and all keypresses and their internal IDs so you could find the correct key ID that way perhaps. Alternatively, as a temporary workaround, you could install S2U2 or...

The HardSPL installer needs to be run from your computer. You connect your phone to your PC and establish an ActiveSync connection, then when it's finished, you load the HardSPL app on your PC and go through the steps. (it's similar to flashing a new radio ROM to your phone) After HardSPL is...

I've noticed that when Carrier Provisioning runs for my handset (and this is across ALL the handsets I've ever used that have the Carrier Provisioning app on them) my data connection is set up with a proxy server (this is on T-Mobile UK). My carrier's internet settings - as supplied by T-Mobile...

Excellent! I only got my TP2 last month after using a Hermes for almost four years (with a Touch HD briefly interrupting) so I'm quickly getting up to speed with the Rhodium offerings. I chose Jackos - specifically the ManilaRUSH flavour - because it looks fairly "stock" and has quite refined...

That doesn't look like HardSPL on there - it's some custom "axebox" SPL by the looks of it. Probably worth flashing with HardSPL just to give you a safety net even if you don't want to change ROMs. Incidentally, if you *do* want to change ROMs, there are some particularly good ones. I've been...

Just flashed S3 ShowLITE (as I think CHT was causing problems with TouchLockPro) - cracking ROM, really speedy, loads of free RAM etc. I was a bit nonplussed by the addition of the Proximity Lock app - I had to go diving around in the start menu after much Googling, I thought TouchLockPro was...

Calling all people who've had success with the zoombar and the proximity sensor! I've got a new TP2, currently running Jackos 01/01/2011 Full and with only a couple of other apps (CorePlayer, GSPlayer and Total Commander). However, I can't get either the zoombar or the proximity sensor unlock...

If you go into bootloader mode, what text is shown onscreen over the coloured bars? (to go into the bootloader mode, hold down the Power and Volume Down buttons whilst soft resetting)

Although I'm a fairly experienced WinMo user I was initially completely dumbfounded by TouchLockPro's setup UI. For some reason, after reflashing to Jackos ROM (after using DeepShining for a day - brand new TP2) values i know should be in some boxes on the Nav Sensor tab are blank and I have no...

Ta for posting up the CAB, I used to have myPlayer 1.85 on a lender HD2 after my old phone broke, but it never quite worked well enough... Graphics horsepower suffered. Then, of course, the iPlayer streams were removed. Just got my own Touch Pro 2 and this streams the standard quality RTSP...

Not using my Vario 2 at the moment as it finally gave up on me after four long years of service :) but on the Touch HD I'm currently using, there's two data connections - Web & Walk (renamed by me) which is set up in the standard Connections applet, and "T-Mobile PictureMessage", which is set up...

I've been loaned a Blackstone running Dutty's HD V1.7 (which I know is a bit old, but it's not my phone so I can't really go updating it unless I get the owner's permission). The volume app is quite nice, with the System Volume & Ring Volume tabs, but I can find no way at all to raise / lower...
