I can unlock via fingerprint, but say if I want to add a new fingerprint, it asks for the PIN first, entering the PIN that previously worked now no longer works. Similarly, was trying to unlock an app via fingerprint which wasn't being recognized, so the phone then switched to requiring a PIN...

Lately my phone has not been accepting my fingerprint every time to unlock it, so earlier today I went to scan a new fingerprint and discovered my PIN no longer works. I've tried opening a couple things that require the PIN as well as locking the phone, but despite being the same PIN that's...

Might be stupid questions, but where in Bixby do you assign a routine to a button? All I can find are by voice, additionally, when I go to commands, there's no open for airplane mode or wifi, searching brings no results. Never used Bixby, so trying to figure things out. Thanks for the help.

Couldn't find anything in Bixby, but IFTTT might work, going to try later.

I am trying to set up a Tasker profile that when connected to my home wifi, first enables airplane mode, then switches wifi and Bluetooth back on. The issue is that Tasker says it needs me to input an ADB command for this to work every time my phone is rebooted. In trying to avoid having to...

I need to replace the back glass of my 3XL, was looking at the parts on witrigs.com and for the replacement rear glass it says "Attention - This product doesn't come with the NFC antenna" When watching videos of replacing the back, none of them mention the NFC Antenna, I would assume if it were...

Good luck, take your time and you will more than likely be fine. What stinks in my case is I can't fix the messed up piece.

That worked perfectly, thanks.

It's definitely frustrating as I carefully followed all the steps. The Whitestone does feel great though and the fingerprint reader is not affected at all. Just have the annoying piece by the camera where it didn't stick. Also, can confirm it works perfectly with the Spigen case mentioned above.

Does anyone have a list and instructions to debloat the Note on Sprint? I have managed to remove or disable most things, but there is a caller id app that I can not get rid of, and each day I get a notification for Aura Services (insurance from sprint) that only goes away if I reboot the phone...

Whitestone protector delivered today, and a complete fail at installation. I should have known something was up as it was missing the little suction cup, but since I figured that was just needed to remove the guide it should not be a big deal. Watched half a dozen or so videos, felt pretty...

Thanks, I had been looking at some Spigen cases since I previously had one on an S7. Decent cases and not expensive either.

Are there any recommended cases that do not interfere with the Whitestone tempered glass screen protector? I know some cases can cause screen protectors to peel up in the corners, since I spent the money on the Whitestone, I want to make sure I don't get a case that won't play nicely with it...

Sorry, not that active on here much. I picked up all the bezel pieces from enfig car stereo.... However, I just took it all out. The tablet had started to get slow, freezing up, not recognizing devices it charging. So, after a fruitless search for a newer tablet to replace it, I gave up and...

Worked for a couple weeks, now back to the same old "Cellular network not available" Bloody maddening.

Wifi calling quit working again, anyone else have this problem? Fi support don't seem to have any clue, going through various settings that all seem to be making no difference whatsoever. If I try to make a call it just says "Cellular network not available" and the call fails. Turning on...

Is there any way to organize apps into folders while using the default Pixel launcher? I have various apps that I'd like to group together, rarely used apps, utility type apps etc. Wondering if there's a way to group them on the stock launcher. Found the answer myself, now running Microsoft...

Anyone know if this ROM would work on the US Cellular UK-495 G-Pad? Been trying to find a ROM, but having no luck in finding anything at all. Rooted fine, but no ROM's that I can find.

Not sure were was the best place to post this, I have been searching for a while now and coming up empty on any ROM's for the G-Pad 8, model number UK495, this is the US Cellular version of the G-Pad 8.0. I have it rooted, but would like to be able to put a custom ROM on there if any are...

Thanks, found that last night after some hunting around. Everything up and running now.

Looks like a factory reset did the trick, both Stringify and DJI Go appear to be working, what is now causing me problems is that I no longer have Samsung Wear and cannot find it to install it, which without it, makes my watch all but useless.

Good point, the tablet is not on Pie. Is there a way to check if an app is updated? For example Stringify does not open at all, just hangs on the splash screen until Android asks if I want to close it, yet my phone has a permanent notification that it's running (it used to open). IFTTT will...

Thanks, will try the factory reset first and avoid locking the bootloader if at all possible. I have my suspicions on the bootloader causing any issues with the apps, and sounds like it is not that, so am happy to leave it alone. Some of the apps it does not bother me, but for example I picked...

What is the safest way to go about re-locking my bootloader? The reason I ask is that many apps on my phone just don't seem to work right, some refuse to open, some crash immediately upon opening, some I have to touch the screen multiple times to go back etc. Trying to figure out what the cause...

Nothing yet, the Samsung I have did not work with OTG + charging and I did not want to pay $50 for an adapter that has so so reviews at best. At the moment I am getting set to try an LG G-Pad 8.0, which I am fairly confident will work as it has 2 USB ports, a full sized and a micro. The only...

Does anyone else have an issue where various apps are unresponsive? For example, both Stringify and IFTTT, if I set up a new flow or applet, the screen gets shown that gives examples of other flows I can create, but the back button does not work until I sort of double tap it. My banking app will...

I have been trying to set up a few devices (Roku, Smart Outlets primarily) on my 2XL using Google Home. However, after I enter my account details and click to Authorize, Google Home simply returns to the list of manufacturers and does not actually add anything. I have cleared cache and data from...

The person whose phone it is already got a new one from an AT&T store, they have 5 days to return the old one, which is why I am trying to grab any files from it.

A few days ago a relatives S9 would not accept their password, at that point from what I understand it reset itself and now all that happens is that the LED blinks blue every few seconds, and if I press the power button to wake the screen it flashes a color across about 75% of it, usually green...

Mine has done this with my Gear S3 watch since I first got the phone a few months ago, it had me seriously considering returning it for a while. Sometimes it would just disconnect from the bluetooth, but often it would unpair causing me to have to go through the whole set up process again. It...

Does anyone know of a way, likely using Tasker, to enter airplane mode when connected to a specific wifi network, but to keep both wifi and BT connections enabled? I have virtually no cell phone service at home, so use wifi calling extensively. However, for some reason it refuses to work on my...

Tried to make a call just now, Hangouts installed, did not go through. Disabled cellular data and the call went through fine. Going to play around some more with Hangouts uninstalled, wifi on, cell data off etc. and see if I can get it reliably working.

Weird, today tried to make a call and it failed again. Even with airplane mode active and WiFi activated. Installed Hangouts again and the calling works right away, I hate having to have an app installed just to use a basic function but oh well.

Found another thread saying that Hangouts needed to be installed for wifi calling to work, sure enough it worked when installing hangouts. Just uninstalled it again though, set to airplane mode, activate WiFi, calling works. Weird. Will just leave it on airplane mode while home. Wonder if I can...

Does anyone have wifi calling working? I switched about a month ago to Project Fi as AT&T did not allow wifi calling on my 2XL. Where I live cell service is almost non existent, so having wifi calling is a huge plus for me. However, the last few times I have tried to make a call it tells me the...

It is pretty ridiculous as well that Samsung have not already issued a fix, the article I read was dated 23rd. I realize that was only 3 days ago, but that is a lot of unhappy customers. As for Samsung support being the worst.... hmm I would put them up against NordicTrack any day.

Samsung broke the app a few days ago, wish they would hurry up and sort out a fix. My watch is pretty much useless currently, was working perfectly before other than the phone dropping the connection now and then. Now, while it will pair with the phone, it won't actually connect with the Gear...

Anyone know if this is possible on the 2XL? I would love to be able to change up the look of the clock, the stock one does not bother me, but some of these now available on the Samsung phones are pretty cool looking: https://9to5google.com/2018/06/26/samsung-clockface-app-always-on-display/

Adguard is working fine for me on DP3.

Make sure you are trying to open from the correct location, and put .\fastboot

100% sure it's Samsung Pay. I will say though that I use it on my watch, not the phone itself. Had to double check though, looks like we are both right. I don't have Samsung Pay on my phone as its own app, but it is used as part of the Gear app in order to set it up on my watch. During set up...

Pay works fine with no issues, I did nothing other than install the app while on O, then it still works on P DP3. Not sure what MST is, so can't help there.

Yup, I had tried magisk hide and it did not work, so (wrongly) assumed the bootloader unlocked was the problem. Thankfully all good now, was definitely a little worried earlier this evening!

Yep, in fact I think I only ran the unlock critical. Did both this time, oddly though unlock critical did nothing initially, so did just unlock, then tried unlock critical again and it reported being unlocked. In the middle of setting everything up now, Samsung Pay working with the unlocked...

I locked it again as Samsung Pay kept crashing saying I had a modified system, since I had already flashed back to factory 8.1 I assumed that was the reason why, hence locking the bootloader. I was actually in the middle of flashing 8.1 again when you replied, did exactly that, unlocked...

Unfortunately having larger issues now.... https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-2-xl/help/stuck-phone-wont-past-google-screen-t3801590

Earlier today I installed Magisk, but then found that some apps I frequently use (Samsung Pay being one of them) were no longer working so I decided to revert back to Android O, remove Magisk etc. and basically go back to stock. I flashed the factory images using fastboot, then sent the command...

Sorry if I missed this, but is it possible to update to Android P from O without losing everything on the phone? I am rooted using Magisk, so cannot take the OTA update, but also don't know that I feel like setting up my phone from scratch again!!

Weird, so after unlocking the bootloader and entering a PIN, I boot into TWRP and it does not accept the PIN. Edit: Booted back into the system, removed the PIN and then got into TWRP.

Having a problem using fastboot to boot into twrp for the first time. I entered: fastboot boot twrp.img From a command prompt in the Platform Tools folder. The results I get are: Downloading 'boot.img' OKAY [0.885s] booting FAILED (remote: Can...
