My system call settings are:
Calling accounts.
Voicemail.
Fixed dialing numbers.
Call Forwarding.
Additional settings.
That's it. Am I in the right place (system call settings)?
Also, I am a beta tester, but because I'm not in the US (I'm UK) it doesn't work. I'm hoping it rolls out soon.

More to it....
My Wife and I both have Pixel 2 XL phones. She is not a beta tester, I am. We both have the November update. She has the call screening feature, I do not. I have called Pixel support (Google) and they have nothing. The best answer I have so far that makes sense is it's a server issue and the feature is being rolled out in blocks. I did revert my phone to mirror hers and even did a factory reset. Still no call screening.

I'm beta tester of Google's many apps. I'm also on November update and US English is default language. I'm have latest update version of Google phone app. I did use VPN connect to US and again update the app. But didn't get call screening.

Call screening is for US Only on Pixel owners on today's Phone Beta update,

Well at least it's not just me then, I signed up for beta a few days ago and it hasn't come through for me yet either. Though I did get an update the next day, it didn't enable it.

I didn't have it have it immediately after the beta update yesterday, but this morning it showed up.

I'm in the same boat. Still no call screen for me and I have the Tuesday update with the feature in the update description.
Anyone know of a way to get it working?

Hi,
I live in Indonesia, and have the latest phone app (beta) + play services (beta) + google app (beta). I have a Google Fi account (from my prev. US trip) and tried changing it to Google Fi activated the call screen feature. When I switched back to my local operator, it disappears. I think it's based on your SIM card identification.

The only other way I've seen to get it is enabling it through root, which isn't an option for me yet.
Mine did decide to show up, I'm not sure how it just showed up without another update, so maybe it just takes time to get enabled. Or like the previous post, maybe its sim based, in that case someone should probably try taking their sim out and restarting. Might be worth a try, at least.

I was SUPER jealous when I saw this feature announced for the Pixel 3. Later in the article when I learned about the execution of the feature I quickly started to cringe. I was certain that the first time someone screened my call I'd be pissed. I was.
Then I got the feature on my Pixel 2 XL. It's like the backlash to the appointment booking assistant of the future and immediate capitulation by Android to announce the AI presence at the beginning of the call. In my opinion this is a knee jerk reaction that I'm sure trickled down to call screening. I really hope that we're not staring down another Glasshole scenario.
I don't remember anyone losing their mind when we didn't know if someone else was listening to their answering machine. My Dad just recently stopped talking to my voicemail like I could hear him in real time.

Iam from Indo too, just edit the xml and it'll work, i just can't get the transcript feature work

he said got updates and "chat heads are great" so I thought he might have got partial update to home. AFAIK new home comes in three parts. So I though he received chat part and waiting/downloading for home.
was refreshing this page and also checking on playstore

btw I did not get facebook app update. will check manually. I disabled auto-updates.
Sad news.................

T-Mobile LGE LG-P769

Is there any compatibility/required spec list on download page?
Obviously they will be more interested to sell their high configuration phones first. I just hope, once it becomes global they may release lite version also. Just hoping
With a grain of Wikipedia salt:
"Facebook has promised support for Home on a "wide range of devices" (including smartphones and tablets), but it is currently only compatible with the HTC First (which is pre-loaded with Home, and was unveiled alongside the software), One X, One (2013), Samsung Galaxy S III, S4 and Note II. An update to the Facebook Messenger app allows use of the Chat Heads feature on any device without using Home."

I am not able to see FBH on play, maybe its recognizing device and preventing. Then logged in to google playstore on pc, but after logging in and searching FBH page, it recognized the phone device I have and rejected saying NON-COMPATIBLE DEVICE and also said....DOWNLOAD NOT AVAILABLE FOR YOUR COUNTRY. Strange.
I am sure someone on xda will port it to many devices. I never used Messenger on facebook before. Was doing chat from main app only. But now downloaded and tested the updated Messenger and yes, the CHAT HEAD feature is nice. You can chat right over the homescreen. Playing with chat head icons is fun.
But the disadvantage is that when we are not chatting and chat heads are placed or appear on homescreen, then anyone can see our text content. Practically not good. Fingers crossed for FBH from xda pals. IF anyone shares apk we can still give it a try.
I wouldn't doubt it. Devs are probably making lovely progress as we speak.
I really liked the FBH interface and one-step ahead style, but I still wanted to ask myself....
....Do I need all the facebook all the time?....And an answer came from inside...."NO! You need phone for work."
And take a note, with so much of animations and full capture of all apps and whole device with many FB processes running in background (messenger, file upload service, active friends list, chat heads, etc), battery may get dead in couple of hours. lolz.
Just wanted to test for some time.

VZW LG G3 has no Call Reject feature

Hey everyone,
Just wanted to give everyone a heads up on the XDA forums about this topic.
I originally posted about the topic on reddit in the /r/LGG3 & /r/AndroidQuestions subreddits.
After users confirmed that the feature was on AT&T and T-Mobile, I decided to talk to Verizon Support. After about 40 minutes the rep and I had concluded that the option is currently not in the Verizon LG G3. The representative was very confused on why the "Basic feature" was not accessible on the VZW LG G3.
They stated that at this time they have no ETA for the feature being added to Verizon G3's. Also, an option exists to send calls directly to voicemail but that is only after a contact has been created for the phone number you want to reject.
Are there any other basic features that users cannot access? (All Carriers/Models)
I don't understand.. what exactly is the "Call Reject" feature?

The call reject feature allows you to automatically reject calls from a list that you make on your phone. It's an easy and fast way to make sure that certain people don't bother you as it automatically sends them to voicemail.
The great part about the list is that you just have to usually hit two buttons to add a person to the list unlike the other method where you have to create a contact in your contact list and then choose to send all calls from that contact to your voicemail.

It's better known as a blacklist if that helps those that are confused by the verbage.

I understand that the option is available, but they are two separate features. One counts as a blacklist while another one is set to individually send contacts to voicemail.
The whole premise of this thread is to state that a basic feature of the Android OS has been removed by Verizon and that there is possibility of other features missing.

This Moron is a Senior Member as well?? Lol why make a douche bag statement like the above? I agree with the OP this is frustrating that Verizon has removed it from the Native Dialer. I think he like me was hoping someone may have another option to offer up? I wonder if there is a way that one of the Huge Brain guy's can figure out how to snag the Dialer from AT&T or Tmobile to work with our phone? (I'd donate for that option for sure)I know there are other 3rd party apps available like Mr. Number but they don't seem to reject the calls as well. Meaning the phone will usually ring at least once and then reject.

Can you to try to explain the difference again. It seems to me that VZN just relabeled it. Does the AT&T version have both send to voicemail as well as reject?
I don't see any difference, unless do rejected calls get a chance to leave a voice message?

Verizon doesn't like this type of thing because then kids can set it up on their parents etc. They have their own blacklist feature that I THINK can also optionally do as you describe on their website. You can't use it against phones on your own family plan though, and it resets every 6 months or something.

Yup can blacklist on the vzw site but the option was removed from the dialer.
I'd recommend looking for a app that lets you block them. I had 77 blacklisted numbers on my S4 - but no way to transfer them.
You guys should look into Xposed Call Blocker. I don't use it myself but supposedly it works great.

Amazfit Pace new official ROM 2.8

I've just got a notification that a new official international firmware for my Pace is available: 2.8.05. It downloaded OK (with some glitches, but luckily downloader resumes after a "fail", does not start from scratch every time) and has just been installed on my watch.
I am curious what is really new and what just a bug fix. The high version number of firmware might mean major upgrade.
The upgrade adds additional languages, but requires new pairing, that is "scan the QR code" procedure. I wonder if this is really necessary?
Obviously, this pairing procedure wiped my custom watch faces, but retained music and gpx files.
Otherwise, firmware looks stable after a couple of minutes of usage and checking.
New "apps":
Disconnect Alert
Standup Alert (on/off)
New activities:
Tennis
Soccer
Run indoor
Thanks! I am waiting for the Update. No Updates available yet. Which Model do you use? A1612? Which was your Last Firmware before the Update? And Last but not least, where do you come from?
Well the change log was really full of things. It was the biggest I have seen since I bought the watch last August. Besides the things you mentioned it told about new heart rate models and optimization, multiple optimizations of the user interface for speed, battery, etc. new official face watches, new menu with activity history and a couple of other things that I cannot remember right now.
...that notification get me this days. But download ends with error. My Pace ist on 1.3.6 d (Germany)

My last firmware was 1.3.6 (international) and the model is A1612. My current location is Poland.
One more observation - this update wiped my side-loaded apps (while previous ones didn't).
1.3.8a here too.
but, I will update the watch later.

i guess its normal if the new version comes with a newer "os"
it's a full system OTA, it will wipe your watch
I am wondering why no update notification on my pace. Is it because of bootloader unlock?
its a 10% deploy only, not everybody will get it now, it will be randomly deployed only to 10 percent of all pace users.

Literally saved me from leaving phone on car hood in the middle of crowded area! (I was carrying stuff, and yeah I know I'm a moron)

Then, you may like one of PaceOn app's features. Bluetooth disconnection alert has been available for a long while and can run on any rom version. It doesn't even need any app running on your phone.
After some using I this update as it seems most things are better (even battery, but not sure), but there are some things that got worst. First the sports menu is sluggish compared to all other menus. Secondly I cannot find the menu where it states for how long my watch has gone without charging, etc. It was nice info.

Q&A
Q: Can i use this APP with the Honor Flybuds 2?
A: No, they have their own APP. Since 13th of january, Freebuds 2 APP got updated to 1.0.0.121 and its basicly a copy of the FlyBuds App. I decided to support both. But keep in mind that i dont own the FlyBuds and cant test everything. If errors happen, please report here with a screenshot
Q: The package says it supports HWA Audio codec but i cant enable it.
A: In case of the Mate 20 Pro, you need to be atleast on Firmware 9.0.0.171 to be able to use HWA.
Q: How do i setup Bone ID Voice Recognition?
A: Honestly, no idea. It seems we need a newer firmware on our phone to have access to this feature. I will report if i get more informations.
Q: Does voice commands work?
A: Yes, music and calls can be controlled. Please check the manual on how to do this.
Q: The update of my Freebuds 2 keeps failing.
A: Keep trying, i needed 6 trys until it worked.
Q: Can i use my phones voice assistant instead oft he build in one?
A: Yes, once you activate, for example google assistant, the Freebuds 2 app wont show any voice settings anymore and all the settings has to be done inside the google app.
Q: Can i use voice comands to do payments?
A: As far i know, no. I am still investigating.
Q: I speak, for example spanish, can i make a translation into spanish?
A: Yes, PN me and i send you the string.xml. You can translate it by using Notepad++ for example and send it back to me. I will update the APP then 

Awesome work! Thank you! It was tedious using the translator to use the app each time.
Can anyone comment on music n call quality and does HWA/LHDC codec make any difference?
Please, anyone who has purchased freebud 2/pro, please share your experience on build, comfort, connectivity, audio quality etc..
So cool, thanks!

Try downloading it from your PC. I'm using Chrome with AdBlocker extension and the file does get downloaded at the first click on the download button, no popups, no ads. From the phone, I was flooded with ads as well.
I am waiting to get approval on androidfilehost. Will change it once done. Sorry

I received mine yesterday. Music quality is very good for me (I'm not an expert on this matter). Indoors, the connectivity is awesome. I haven't experienced any issues like sound skips.
Outdoors, I've experienced minor issues having my mobile in my pants' pocket and my hand covering it. But it almost never happened.
Regarding the HWA, I'm using a mate 20 pro LYA-L29 9.0.0.169 and I don't have the inbuilt options in EMUI 9. Waiting for the 9.0.0.171 update which I heard includes the HWA and, in some cases, in-built options outside the freebuds 2 app.
While calling, I have no issues hearing (outdoors) but the person on the line told me that she couldn't hear me very well (Cut audio). I haven't tested it indoors.
The headphones are very comfortable. It fits nice inside the ear so you don't really hear much outside noise at 55% volume. They don't fall easily. I've done some tests like shaking my head fast and running with them and they stay in place.
They feel well-built. They don't have that cheap plastic feeling. It's a shame that they don't have touch controls for skipping songs or changing the volume. On the other hand, they support voice assistant so you can say for instance "Play summertime by my chemical romance" and it will start playing without touching your phone.
They also have voice controls to turn up/down the volume, play/pause, etc.
Battery wise, I haven't used them long enough to drain the battery. I used them continuously for 1 hour and a half without issues. The case charges them so I haven't had the chance of draining them completely.
The wireless charge is awesome. I use the mate 20 pro reverse charge and it's very handy.
I think that covers pretty much everything. If you have any questions I can try to help

Not really, i noticed 1 sec drops outside when listen to music like 2 times in 30-40 min. But i had smartwatch and 2 Gotchas with me. So far, they work great!
I mean when watching a movie, are the voices synced with the lips of the actors?

No delays since day 1, without any FWU. Only in games, which pretty much every bt has. It's only 0,5secs so it's pretty minor.

Fixed! Sorry, copied only half of the link
Updated to 1.0.0.121
Visually there are no changes. I still belive that we Need atleast 9.0.0.171 Firmware for some feature.
Maybe someone who has 171 on his Mate 20 pro and the Freebuds could confirm or send me some screenshots.
Specially if there are any Buttons for BoneID Settings. HWA Codec Settings are confirmed being there at 171 or higher.

S9+ pie mobile hotspot issue

Hi,
This morning I applied the pie/9.0 update to my S9+. One problem I saw at once: the mobile hotspot feature, that is the source of my internet, is no longer working at 5 GHz as it used to prior to the update.
The 5 GHz option has disappeared from the Settings menu altogether::
Under 8.0:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Under 9.0:
I called support, all they could say was to backup the phone with Smart Switch, perform a reset and see how it goes. But this doesn't look like a configuration issue.
Do you guys have a 5 GHz option in your Mobile Hotspot menu? Before I go about resetting the phone, and research how to rollback my S9+ to 8.0 (no such option in Smart Switch), I'd like to make sure.
Thanks.
Nope I see the same thing you do... Which is kinda weird, but hopefully once the official release is made (still on the last official beta, waiting for the update from Samsung) they will have taken care of that

Hold on, it's not an official release? I never subscribed to any beta, casually checked the availability of an update in Settings, and it proposed me to update my phone to the latest and bestest.
I see no mention of a beta here.
I guess they didn't take care of that .

Guess they didn't, or the toggle for use 5ghz when available is what they use now for the option?
But the beta testing was mentioned quite a bit here. There was even a thread that had leaked builds of the One UI beta in the Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion forum here.
No I don't have an official release yet. As part of the Samsung One UI Beta testers I haven't gotten the official release yet. We are still on the last beta build they released (Beta 4 if I remember correctly, phone is in other room charging before I go to work).
I'm on stable pie and these are the settings
Samsung support on their forums advised me to explain all that in their Samsung Members app, so that it would allegedly reahc the developers. Besides an automated ack mail I got no answer, which is not totally unexpected. I fixed it by myself. In case it helps someone else, here is how.
I downloaded the exact same firmware that was installed after the OTA update, 9.0, G965FXXU2CRLI_G965FOXM2CRLI_XEF, from sammobile. I flashed it and it reinitialised something and the 5GHz option is back. I have now the exact same version of the firmware that I had after the update and before flashing, and didn't even need to reinstall any app or reconfigure anything after using the "HOME_*.*" file to flash. So all's well.

I have to go to the Show Advanced section to see the option for 5Ghz.
