Have you unlocked it's bootloader ????

---------- Post added at 03:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:11 AM ----------

You don't need any app for that. Go to settings, then data usage, then data connect permission, and you should see a list of all your apps. Click on the icon beside the required app and press disable. It's done

Hit thanks if it helped
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
If you mean to disable "background data usage", yes, that disables background data usage for that app, but it doesn't exactly do what you think it does, it doesn't completely disconnect the app from using data, I can't explain this in the detail that it deserves, but it doesn't.
[General Questions and Answers] Ssssss8622:
I believe it also has options to restrict fully
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Not on any devices I've ever owned/used and I've owned/used countless devices, regardless of android version, unless this is a setting that is new in android Oreo or Pie. I don't own a device with those versions, I've used devices with those versions but not enough to be familiar with the data usage settings they have. I've considered flashing O and P on a N5 that I no longer use but I haven't gotten around to it.
[General Questions and Answers] Ssssss8622:
I have seen it on all devices I have used(except one). Looks like it depends on the rom.
[General Questions and Answers] DB126:
Leakage is possibke as restriction is not all inclusive. A VPN based firewall is the best option. Blocking traffic via IP tables is old school.
[General Questions and Answers] xunholyx:
Droidriven is correct here. It doesn't have that option.

It will only restrict background data when the app is not in use. As soon as you open the app, it will start using data again.

For instance: if you are restricting background data for an app that you get notifications for (like a messaging app), you won't get any notifications until you open the app itself. The app has to be in use to be using data while data restriction is set for it.

Thanks man. I know it's a little late. And if since went through an S5,S7, and now I'm on a rooted note 5. Lol. But I just flashed a different rom, and it has XDA labs on it.

[General Questions and Answers] n.p.:
Any fix for random mac addresses?

Have a Bluboo Maya Max, and every time wifi is turned on, it has a different mac address (first three digits 00:08:22, last three digits random).

Have done a lot of searching on this, but none of the suggested replies worked.

Hexedited a mac address into /nvdata/APCFG/APRDEB/WIFI (offsets 04-09), which did give me a stable (surviving wifi turning on and off) mac address while the phone remained on, but the altered WIFI file doesn't survive reboots (it is replaced by the original file).

So I tried dumping the nvram partition, locating the WIFI file within the partition, hexediting the mac address into that, and flashing it over the original nvram. That didn't work either (after each boot, /nvdata/APCFG/APRDEB/WIFI has zeros in offsets 04-09).

Any way to fix this will be greatly appreciated.

If you are rooted you can use fake dns with any dns changer from play store.

And that option to restrict data,I think they do fully

If you are rooted with magisk, you can use dns by cloudflare module

[General Questions and Answers] DB126:
It's a bit tricky and usualky difficult to capture/redirect/maintain all paths (mobile, wifi, etc). I generally use the built in features of a VPN based 'firewall' like AdGuard which offers robust support for numerous public DNS providers. Tools like "L Speed" and various Magisk modules are also available, albeit usually aligned with a specific DNS service provider like CloudFlare or Google.

A newer version might not allow flashing TWRP. I would flash the same version that was already on it, you just need to make sure that you use the correct firmware for your carrier.
[General Questions and Answers] ajsaker:
I was at 8.0 before I screwed up the phone
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Ok, so you need 8.0 for your model number but you need 8.0 for your country/region/carrier. You need to find out what the three letter code for your region and your mobile carrier is, then use that code to find the correct firmware.

Go to Sammobile .com or samsung-updates .com, then use their search feature, type your model number in their search bar, when you find the list of firmware for your model number, then you will be looking for 8.0 that has your three letter region/carrier code.

Hello, I am looking for a way to emulate my phone's accelerometer. My phone has one but I want to be able to run a program which feeds different accelerometer data to the phone. The end goal is to set a loop of custom accelerometer data, like a loop of touch data with FRep.

[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
Redmi Note 4x has two versions; one with a Qualcomm chipset (Mido) and other with a Mtk chipset (Nikel) no matter other specs (type, size) to identify your battery.

Chinese version is just referring to the firmware that came pre-installed on device and it could be happen that additionally Xiaomi opens or not other bands to work in China if device was sold initially there but they don´t made a different battery for every variant of the same version.

You can search in any site of your choice here just looking for the Snapdragon/Qualcomm variant https://www.thebalancesmb.com/best-internet-shopping-websites-2891937

[General Questions and Answers] ColdUser:
Dear users/developers,

I have a hard time using Whatsapp because of delayed notifications.

There are a lof of questions and thread's about it and i have done a lot of research.

For example i deleted WhatsApp data many times, put WhatsApp in not optimized, uninstalled GMS Doze, i use PNF root for changing heartbeat time, i disabled AdAway, changed many ROMs (currently on Syberia).

Even when WhatsApp is open and phone is locked notification are delayed (So weird).

Its also like the internet connection go off when locking the phone.

This is my last option actually and thinking about to go back to Oreo and see what happens.
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
This always happens with the naming scheme used by Xiaomi confusing users due to devices are sold for countries which are not expected to be launched.

First chinese version is mediatek not snapdragon (If Xiaomi releases a device with both processors ever launches the cheapest for China).

The first of these series launched for China just was called Note 4 with a mediatek processor (Model Numbers: 2016050/ 2016051) and the second was rebranded note 4x with a snapdragon 430 processor (2/16) and then a new version with a snapdragon 625 processor (3/32 and 4/64), the version for India has this model Number: 2016100 and the Global Version this one: 2016102. you can take a view in the box.

They´re just two models of battery for the Redmi Note 4x and one more for the Note 4 (not the first Note 4 but the rebranded globally one)

To make it easily just look up in the specs of your device maybe in the box or if you have yet the battery for these three models numbers and also you can see that the battery connectors are slightly different, see the pictures above:

- BN41 For mediatek devices.

- BN42 For Snapdragon devices 2/16

- BN43 For Snapdragon devices 3/32

[General Questions and Answers] Pacifista00:
what should i buy for my Phone that have 3gb Ram/16 gb rom and 625 snapdragon soc the phone name in about system is Xiaomi Redmi note 4 but the box was labeled Redmi note 4x and the box language where all chinese. I just ordered it from an online shop but it was an original one. The service center said that the version of my phone was the chinese version one. By the way what are the two types of battery for rnx4. Thanks again man you're the only one replying in all forums i've asked
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
By his previous description, if you have snapdragon soc, you have the Redmi Note 4x, the MTK soc "should" be the Redmi Note 4(non-x). Don't quote me on that though, I'm just going by what the two of you have previously posted.
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
Upload some screenshot of the back of your box and also Don´t you have yet your battery to see the model number?. Also see where the connector pins are placed and see that the cable connector has some difference between these two models BN42 and BN43 (I linked the pictures in red letters)

If you are absolutely sure that your device is snapdragon 625 then is the third chinese version (due to popularity that had this device Xiaomi made a lot of combination based on processor/ram/rom) and based on the 3GB of ram then I incline to think that the correct one is the model BN43.

Put this without quotes in the search bar of Amazon, I guess that is this one "CS-MUM412XL" (This is just as reference, you can find more based on it in other buying sites)

All was good until I scanned it with malwarebytes. It found:

Android/trojan.agent.XF in com.android.system.service

Android/PUP.Riskware.Autoins.Fota in UpgradeSys

I hestate to login to my Google account on this tablet. Are these false positives? If not what Can I do with this tablet? Do I need new ROM?

Tech data:

[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Yeah, I'd try accessing the system and removing the trojan and the PUP before doing anything else with the tablet or even connecting to any kind of network until I had those potential threats removed.

I'm not certain about the PUP because it might be part of an update process that is supposed to be there, but, when in doubt, it is best to treat it as a threat so it would have to go in my opinion.

Hi hope someone can advise as I'm loosing the will to live

I've a mate 8 NXT-L29C636 which I believe is asia region although I've from the UK

I was running stock android 6 with EMUI 4.0

When I ask it to check for any update, it always came back with no updates.

I saw plenty of threads saying they had updated to android 7 and 8 and how they done it.

So I downloaded Firmware Finder from Google play and without too much difficulty managed to start installing firmware. That's when my problems started

This was two weeks ago and I've been spending 100+ hours trying to recover.

I think it failed a 5% or something and since then my phone will not boot properly.

I can only fastboot it and sometimes to erecovery and EMUI to wipe/factory reset

Searching forums it seems DC Phoenix was the only software that could help so I bought it.

So far I've tried flashing firmware from DC-Unlocker site in standard more but all goes ok with success for all the partitions but it requires the phone to put into upgrade mode, something my phone never does and I can't force it.

So that leaves me with advanced mode, again all successful but booting the phone just gives the huawei logo then reboots again

I've tried different stock roms NXT-L29C636 but they all claim successful but still can't boot my phone

I've followed the steps in DC-Phoenix instructions to no avail.

The last step today meant shorting a pin to ground to force the phone into a mode when it was seen as windows as Huawei USB COM device, which seemed to work.

The instructions claimed I can use any NXT board flash as they're all the same and again all successful i used

NXT-AL10_M00A102_Board Software_Global _Nonspecific_Android 6.0_EMUI 4.0_05021WLB_4.dtwork

but the log file now says build is;

Build number: HLNXTAL10BM00A102

Model: HUAWEI NXT-L29

Battery state: 3249mv

from

Build number: :NXT-L29C432B192

Model: HUAWEI NXT-L29

Battery state: 7035mv

So my question is am I using the wrong firmware? It is always successful so I don't think it's bricked but I can't work out what I'm doing wrong.

Other things to mention is pressing vol - and vol + and power with sd card and dload doesn't work either.

Sorry for long post and thanks for reading

Any help very much appreciated
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Try extracting the firmware file to get the system.img that is in the firmware. Then place that file in your fastboot folder(install adb/fastboot if you don't already have it and make sure that the system.img is actually named "system.img", rename it if you have to). Then boot to fastboot mode, open a terminal on PC then try flashing the system.img using this command:

fastboot flash system system.img

Then type:

adb reboot recovery

When it boots into recovery, choose factory reset option to reset the device and then select the option to wipe cache partition in recovery, then see if the device will reboot into system.

The process of flashing .img files to each individual partition can be repeated for each of the different .img files extracted from the firmware with the command meant to flash each of the partitions/.imgs, if flashing just the system isn't enough to get the device booting.

If someone here understands your specific device better, they may have a different method for you.
