Solved - Pixel 4XL OEM unlock wouldn't "take" - Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi everyone,
I'm on a FIDO (Canada) Pixel 4XL with OTA Android 11 and could not get the "enable OEM unlocking" to actually stick. It would ask for my screen password as if it was going to work and then immediately remain OFF. GRRRRR
After much reading and general frigging around I decided to "turn off" Developer mode and try turning it back on as that seems to fix everything these days LOL.
Bingo, most of the options became greyed out but OEM Unlock remained accessible. I toggled it to ON and woohoo it stayed there.
Turned Developer mode back on and all is well.
Hope this helps someone out there as I hadn't come across this odd yet easy fix.

Something froze my Unlock Screen pattern, how do i bypass?

Hi
Im running CM7 nightly and have been using it without problems since it came but today my phone rebooted and when it started up my unlock pattern didnt work anymore and gesture function was activated on the lockscreen (wasnt before). I have USB Debuging enabled so if someone knows a way around please tell me.
Ive searched and tried these methods but nothing works. After i reboot the problem is the same.

Ive changed to unlock pattern with digits and used a 6 digit code before crash. I can recieve calls and answer but not access anything except the rotatary unlocksceen and the digitboard for unlock pattern. If i enter wrong code 10 times it just gives me 30 sec timeout and then back to start (no permant lock activated as it seems).
Please, any help is appreciated. I really dont want to factoryreset the phone.
Edit: The phone is HTC Desire HD

[Q] turning off developer options leaves some developer settings enabled

Hi Guys,
I've recently updated my Rogers HOX to Android 4.1 via the OTA system update. during that process, I inadvertently left some developer options enabled which have caused them to be enabled even when all developer options are disabled (via the main toggle).
does anyone know how to "reset" the defaults so that when I leave the developer options off, it will keep all developer options disabled?
The two options in particular are:
Show touches
Pointer location
thanks,

The main toggle is only for allowing access to the dev options, it doesn't turn them all off. You would have to reenable access to them and then turn them off manually.
Yeah... I tried that. Even with those two options disabled, once I flick the master toggle off, the two settings turn on again.
Why not just leave the developer options on? It doesn't hurt anything

Yeah, that's what I've done for now. Its just a nitpicky thing for me and I'm new to android so I thought a change like this would be possible somehow.

Devoper Options

I accidentally hit the switch at the top of the developers options screen and switched it off. When I switched it back on, all the individual options switched off. Could someone here (on a verizon snapdragon of it matters) let me know which developer options are switched on by default, I can make sure I have restored my prior settings.
I'm on T-Mobile but the only one that is on is "Use legacy DHCP client". I'm not sure why though since I'd think we would want to use the latest.

Developer Option Can't Turn On

Hello everyone, do you guys have any idea why my developer option suddenly cant be turn on? Even the options under it like forcue GPU rendering and USB debugging mode can't be enabled. The switch has been disabled.
Please see screenshot attached.
Im not unlocked nor rooted. 100% stock.
Okay, i got my own problem solved. I just data cleared the [Settings] app under app manager. Then re-tapped build number multiple times again to re-show the developer option menu and bam! All options are now changeable again.
I don't know what happened but my theory is that it got messed up when I updated the phone. I initially enabled the developer option when I first got the phone yesterday. Upon arrival at my home, I updated to the latest build. After that the developer option was disabled.

automatic brightness and image stabilization in videos stop working

hello guys, i have a problem with xiaomi note me 10. in practice, as soon as i install rom with android 10 base, automatic brightness and image stabilization in videos stop working (app freezes). i tried all the existing roms global, stable, .eu on both miui 11 and 12, made any type of reset, used miui app from pc, locked and re-unlocked bootloader ... i tried them all.
with miui android 9 everything works while if i switch to android 10 they stop working. even OTA updates have done the same thing.
have you ever had similar experiences?
If Android 10 is where the main issues are occuring for you, where a workaround that I found works.
1. Enable/Open Developer Options
2. Find, and tap "Quick settings developer tiles"
3. Enable the "Sensors Off" switch.
4. Open your phone quick setting (swipe down from the top) and tap "Sensors Off". Then wait a few minutes.
5. Tap "Sensors Off" again, to make the button turn grey, to disable it.
Then check to see if the sensors are all working.
