I have seen something like this before, can't remember where. but check in the Developer settings, under the Display options possibly. Try resetting all the Developer options back to default.

It could be specific to the particular make and model of phone, tablet, or TV-box you've got there.

Officially the snapdragon 855 won't be available in India, you could try any of these stapes though if you really want snapdragon 855

1. Buy the Snapdragon 855 varient of S10 from Alibaba/baggood/amazon or any third party retailers. You will have to wait for long and pay extra for shipping and may or may not have to pay customs
2. If you have any friends or relatives in US or Canada or even UAE ask them to buy the phone and send it to you or ask them to bring it with them.

I have someone in UAE however the thing i am worried about is region sim lock of samsung, exypansys.ae mentions the device is unlocked but there's no way to find out if its region unlocked or not

The service provider said they cannot block the access to the premium message service. They advised me to use the option described in the link I posted above.
Oh well... I hope it works. We'll see.

Yes, cracks would be easily visible.

I don't want to be rude, but you've posted about half a dozen threads worrying about whether normal use will destroy your phone. They are not that delicate: try not to drop it, sit on it or immerse it in water (or other fluids), be wary on a beach (sand and salt water), but otherwise you don't have to worry so much.

Not rude at all. You're just trying to help, and I appreciate it.

^ Dumbest question here with over 1k views and now this 1 reply.

Click to expand...

it is only dumb if you do not ask a question. at least this person was brave enough to post it and have all the world to see the question.

what's your budget? if you want to go cheap the tab A is a great device. if you want to the higher end then go with the tab s6. i might save up for one.....maybe a christmas present to myself.

hard to say....looks like its for Honda....but i doubt it.

here is the thing, we get this kind of question almost everyday. the only true way to find out what it is, is by looking into the phone's settings under notifications.

with icons there are thousands of possibilities of what app it could represent. factor in web notifications and you have a lot more to deal with.

so the possibility of someone knowing what the icon represents can be hit or miss. most of these threads go unanswered or nothing really comes out of the thread.

so let's cross our fingers and hope someone will recognize the icon.

AWESOME SAUCE!!!!!!!!

I get a notice saying cannot use fingerprint. If problem persists reboot phone or contact customer care center. I have rebooted and even done a soft reset.

FWIW your guide was easy enough to follow, better than many how-to's I have read. That said the instructions worked and I was able to reboot the phone 2 times. Now I get a seandroid message and a SET warranty bit : kernel message with it. Needless to say the phone is useless. Add to that I have no backup to restore it to that's my fault.

Thank you,

PS: I have posted my troubles to the forum and am trying to sort it out, just thought you'd like to know of my experience.

Definitely carrier activated but allowed by Google/Android. There was a lot of discussion about it from what I remember. The fact that Google catered to the carriers demand/ Wishes.
I think this was one of the things I found online about it and led me down the rabbit hole to XDA and a lot of other sites

Ok, got it thanks for the help.

You're welcome.

I now know why there are no local services which provide phone data recovery as the chances would be slim to none.

After a factory reset, unfortunately, yes. But as noted, that's the point. Like if you're selling your phone, you factory reset it first, then you know the buyer can't dredge up your data.

I wonder if there is an issue with the Android Auto and there will be an update?

Thanks for this. I've followed your instructions - will have to wait and see if it works!

Don't think it's just a battery hardware issue - clearing the cache partition returns battery to normal usage for a couple of days which wouldn't be the case if the battery was dying.

Will monitor for next few days and see if any improvement. Thanks.

A tool sounds interesting. What also sounds interesting is understanding where this MSL code comes from. Some info I've found talks about it being a hash generated from a unique id of the phone like the IMEI number. But I really don't know. It could be a number which is programmed into flash at build time or sent via OTA at activation. In any case, what this exercise is telling me is that the process to use a smartphone in a different way than what the provider intended is far too complex for the average user.

have you tried a factory reset?

Click to expand...

Thank you, ocnbrze - factory reset worked! As my girlfriend pointed out, I'd bought this new phone after having the other one for 3 years (I dropped it and it shattered and fixing it would cost almost as much as buying a new phone) and transferring all the info off the old phone meant I had a few apps that needed to be updated.

So when I did the factory reset, I answered "Yes" to updating all apps, and now the phone shows me my arrows so I can close out of apps and go "home." Case closed.

Another thing my girlfriend pointed out is that phones for sale at a retail store may have sat there on display and in stock for over a year, meaning that when you activate the phone, you should make sure all apps have the most current version, so don't transfer, say, Instagram and Snapchat as they were - install new versions and sign in.

Cheers and best to all.

Hi All!
I'm looking for either a calendar with adjustable snooze or an add-on app for the Google calendar. I was wondering if any of you know of a good one.

The Story-
I used to have Calendar Notifications Plus by Sergey Parshin on my Android 5.1 phone.
That app would show a notification when the Google Calendar event triggered. i could swipe down and pick a time to snooze from a list I could make. For example- I had 5 minutes, 1 hour and 4 hours.

Due to a crash, I had to reset the phone & re-install the apps.
Sadly, the app is no longer available. I tried using a legacy version from archive org. It did not work.

My biggest desire is to have adjustable snooze times. I searched all I could find on the Play Store and came up empty.

Do any of you have a recommendation for one you have used and liked? A replacement calendar would be OK if it syncs with Google calendar.

Thanks For Your Suggestions!
Paul

How about waiting for the S40?
