Completely agree. I am waiting for Pixel 4. If they don't do anything major, I will switch to Samsung.

Battery Saver activates Dark Mode

I like that. I don't want them to work :D

I found a settings just for you. In 'Settings' > 'Accessibility' > Scroll all the way down > Enable 'High contrast text'. It doesn't look too good in dark mode (eg. messaging app).

I'm really impressed with "Black and White" mode in Essential Camera app Grand Central Station at 11PM:

I didn't know that you could add calendar and temp. widget on essential launcher!! I'm really impressed with the SOT so far.

Exactly! Mic is right next to the SIM tray. It's really easy to poke the mic unless you are careful!

I got my $223.99 Essential Phone 2 days ago. At first I thought, I'll sell it for more money after playing with it for few days, but.... I'm IN LOVE with it :(. I've switched from Sony XZ1 compact. It was good phone, apart from an OKey camera (before Sony, I had a Pixel 2). I'm not gonna...

By the end of this year, XZ1 and XZ1 compact will get Android Pie. Source List of the Sony phones, that will get Android (Mud) Pie: * Xperia XZ2 * Xperia XZ2 Compact * Xperia XZ2 Premium * Xperia XZ1 * Xperia XZ1 Compact * Xperia XZ Premium

What about the camera & network quality (if you are on T-mobile??

Thanks a looot pbarrette. You are amazing & always willing to help. All I did is just copy "oem.sin" file from customized US rom to newflasher folder & flash only that single file in my international (Latin America) XZ1 Compact. Now I have VoLTE + Wifi calling & of course fingerprint scanner...

My apologies for asking this question on 25th page of this thread... I'm on "Customized GEL .119" (Latin America) with fingerprint enabled. To get VoLTE without losing data, should I do one of the followings: 1. Flash "Customized GEL .119" minus userdata.sin AND with replaced oem.sin from...

Yes. Are you still on 8.0? Try clearing data of "Google Services Framework" in Settings-> Apps & notifications -> See all apps -> 'Show system' (top right three dot menu). Restart the phone & check for update. You should get the update instantly. After 8.1 update, it should show up in Play Store...

You are truly amazing!!! I was upset that that my Pixel 2 keeps saying "Your system is up to date", while on 8.0. Software update is the reason I got this phone over OnePlus 5T or Essential. I just followed the steps, restarted the device & checked for update! & There it is! 8.1! Finally we...

Samsung taught everybody how to multitask (yeah, including Google & Apple).

Yes, it wipes out the phone completely, you'll have to set it up again. Everything else is same, such as AT&T bloats, wifi calling etc.

Try this This is not "S7 Active" specific issue. It is overall S7 issue on Android 7.0. You don't need to downgrade to 6.0.1. Just delete all the APNs (make it EMPTY!) -> Restart phone -> Add APN -> Restart. Problem solved. ---------- Post added at 05:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at...

Thanks a lot!!! You saved me from selling my beloved S7 Active! After searching (camo green, unlocked) from about 2 months, I bought it a week ago. I'm using "MINT SIM". So on default network settings, I'm fine outdoor, but indoor situation is horrible, it keeps me in LTE (barely 1 bar). So...

Yes This is the one. I'm using it too. Looks amazing, matches color and feels really nice.

NADA! (S2 Classic) 1st, did soft reset = nothing 2nd, cleared data, reinstalled Gear Manager app = nothing 3rd, did hard factory reset = STILL NOTHING! WTH!

Wiping "Dalvik, Cache & Data" will not wipe phones internal storage. No, you will not loose pictures or songs in internal memory.

I wish I could. Just a renamed SSID.

I've waited TWO months on stock 5.1.1 so that I can get a MM OTA!!! Loving every bit of it! Its amzing. I know every one loves/hate "Good Lock". I'm loving it. Latest update is much more improved. With blur effect on:

Why would you do that!? You could use that device(as backup phone, standalone navigation or media device or use it with Google Voice for an extra number) or sell it or donate it!!!

Samsung included these new manual on "June 7, 2016"!!! Interesting. Hopefully we'll get the update within a week (fingers crossed & crooked!). Mannn... Its been a looong wait! N910T is the last major version to get 6.0... Sigh!!!

GSMArena.com Verizon Note 4 gets MM update before T-mobile!! Its a shame!

This is ridiculous! T-mobile updated all of their scheduled MM updates, except Note 4s and Tab S2! Whats wrong with them!!! I'm soo mad...

Can someone give a possible explanation, why S5 got update earlier than Note 4!!! I just can't think of any possible scenario!!! This is disrespect!!!

Thanks a lot! I was trying to flash stock DOK2 for 3 hours! & was getting bootloop again & again. Then I did factory reset with TWRP & it worked!!!

Note 4 MM from T-mobile in couple of weeks? Impossible. Note 5 & S6 Edge+ is still in "Manufacturer Development" phase!!!! So, may be within 2 months!

Turn off 'Smart Alert' in Settings > Motion & gesture

Anyone else enjoying UI animations? S7/edge uses the same 'screen off' animation. I changed animation speed from 0.25x to 1x & the UI feels... soft! I'm loving it! Thanks again OvrDriVE for giving us the opportunity to enjoy Note5 software with Note 4 convenience!! It feels so GOOD -_-

"DOK 2 only can be rooted with systemless root": not true. Chainfire released a autoroot zip for it. You can use those previous zip too, you just have to use a custom kernel. Link for TWRP Edit: Why would u want to go to Kitkat? For battery life? Trust me, I tried that. Difference is very...

You are may be 1 of 5% people who are using COG2. 95% people which includes TEKHD & so many people like me can't be wrong. IT IS AN IMPROVED BASEBAND & BOOTLOADER. Move on & join us -_-.

I was looking for an excuse to do a clean flash. Dirty flashing since V2. Thanks a LOT OvrDriVE, you are awesome!!!

Settings > System Tweaks > Notification Panel Mods > System info > Hidden

V5 is awesome! Loving this new widget. Lockscreen weather is fixed too. Thanks a lot OvrDriVE

Disable S-voice, it will work. Worked for me.

You are right. S7 Edge with 3600mAh battery & 5.5' screen is hot!

Never happened to me ever. But my lockscreen weather widget would not stay in center. I recommend to not interact with 'Lockscreen mods' too much in 'System tweaks'. Try clearing caches & reboot.

I liked the new TouchWiz very much. New icons, UI colors & of course 'Theme store'. I liked new s-pen features. Everything is working very good. I liked the features of Note5 but didn't want to buy one just because it was lacking micoSD expansion & removable battery. I LOVE Note 4's hardware, so...

Why not use latest baseband & modem? Its improved & designed to perform better. I like being in DOK2.
