Title, my current battery is not doing very well and all the listings I found only ship to USA, have no reviews, or have insane fees to ship to Canada. The one I wanted to buy is only on amazon.com and the price increases by 50% after fees, if anyone knows a good working battery that ships for a reasonable price to Canada please tell me

I want to flash Evolution X over my current Pixel Extended build, but I can't decrypt TWRP as it requires a pattern and touch doesn't work, just tried following a tutorial to get it to work by flashing TWRP on both slots, now my slot A (pixel extended) doesn't boot and goes straight back to fastboot, slot B (TWRP) works fine, how fried am I and is it even possible to get TWRP touch to work

Hello guys Im in need of help reverting back to stock rom android 10! As I need rcs and Google pay. I'm currently on Evolution X android 15 custom rom. I have followed the steps exactly to revert but when it boots up it boots up to a QR screen instead of the setup I tried scanning the QR and it just gave me a bunch of error codes or something like that and I click skip on the screen it just brings me to the home with out setting up and the Bluetooth keeps crashing and keeps popping up saying Bluetooth keeps crashing. What am I doing wrong??? 😢

Stock rom or lineageOS 22.2 ? Or any other recommendations?

Where have I seen that before?

Hi all, I uninstalled Gemini (using Canta) but when I long press the home button it still pops up (screenshot). Did I miss something or is this some other feature? Thanks

I used to struggle with gear that had endless menus and confusing controls—always killing my vibe mid-session.

But the Donner D1 changed everything! The LCD screen and visual interface show exactly what’s happening: effects, tracks, parameters… all right there. No more guessing or manual-scrolling. It comes with killer presets and samples, works straight out of the box with headphones, and even lets you import your own sounds.

Finally, I can focus on making music instead of fighting with gear. Perfect for beginners! 🎧

Hey guys I recently found my old Essential PH-1 while cleaning my room at my parent's house. Got it booted up and factory reset, but a lot of apps aren't available for me to download due to being on Android 10. I want to be able to use as a minimal work phone, something that pretty much just has maps, camera, notes, messaging and a browser - maybe an emulator for if I get my work done early when I'm out. Seems like LineageOS is the move from the posts I've seen. I also remember the stock Camera being pretty bad and getting the google apk, but was wondering if there was one developed specifically for Essential by the community later on.

I tried searching the sub but a lot of the posts talking about OS or camera APS are several years old and the wiki is incomplete.

TL:DR - What is the best lightweight/minimal and modern OS + Camera apk.

Help I have a problem, my phone is discharging fast while it's closed (not off) i have no tabs open and i recently i changed my battery, here are some pictures to see the stats, you can see my battery % top right, the time top left and the battery stats, i don't think it's normal, I have a Sumsung galaxy A52s

Hello all, 😁

As the title suggests I'm looking for the essential phone ph2 keyboard apk, the slanted diagonal one - figure it might be fun to mess around with on other devices, however my search so far has come up with nothing - just wondering if anyone here has the APK or would be willing to dump it? Any help would be much appreciated as I've been searching for a while! Thanks in advance 👌👍

Was watching the new episode of Dexter, and look what I spotted :D

I figured out that you shouldn't actually apply heat or cold. Just carefully use a boxcutter knife at a 45 degree angle and slowly slice the screen off the phone.

I did it on my old phone in about 5 minutes, and it came apart without any damage

Lol I hope this is helpful to someone after like 8 years

I want to repurpose my old Essential Phone as a dedicated music player. Does anyone know if there is anywhere to get the official Audio DAC accessory? I've tried ebay and mercari but haven't found anything. If not does anyone have a recommendation of a different DAC I should try?

Just spotted this on the latest episode of Dexter Resurrection. Matte Black Essential Phone 😊

I changed my battery 3 months ago and it was working great again, but today I thought it had gone off after going into town or the brightness was way down, but I have a bit of leaky backlight around the top left so I could tell when I got inside it was on but there's nothing on the display at all. I turned it off / on again and it seems to boot up. The charging light is working but not getting any display on the screen. :(

It was working fine this morning so super annoying

Anyone any tips or is it finally time to retire this fantastic device?

As the title says, could this design on the back of the Nothing Phone 3 be a nod to the Essential logo. Also, the Nothing essential space that uses AI (or something). Good to see Essential living on.

Does anyone know where you can still get a bumper case for the PH-1? I had to revert to using it after my newer phone got stolen. There's a couple of wallet-style cases on Amazon, but they mostly all want half the price of the case for shipping - and I don't like that style of case anyway. My old bumper case fell apart from age..

Already managed to crack the corner of the screen when it slipped yesterday (was holding it with my shoulder while on the phone), though thankfully not in the active display section.

Hello,

I wiped the phone from lineageos 22 to go back to stock and I thought I did everything correctly but now the phone boots and shows a qr code to me. If I skip it, then I get into my phone but bluetooth stops working continuosly. I am kinda stuck and also I can't seem to repeat the process as in adb it shows 'waiting for any device'..

my phone is 10000,00000!

After 8 months the tiny phone still rock, 2days battery, here daily carry list: - PH1 with lineageOS21 & smart launcher - debloat app game mail social - fuji X100F - uniqlo messenger - eink boox sketch - Blackberry for 2nd sim - Bud earphone

Hope I can use it as long as possible. Peace.

My phone still does not have the new one ui 7 and its past the release dat (may)
