I for about a week or two now have been thinking of switching my phone back to stock and update to N Preview 2, since I enrolled for updates for the dev previews. I'm currently running Dirty Unicorns 10.2, the newest stable update and can't decide if I want to try Android N or not. Any help is appreciated.
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] Colosseo:
Hello,

I own the Redmi 2 16 GB (HM 2014813), that's a good device but MIUI ROMs do not support device encryption. I've been searching for a clear answer but could not find any "definitive" information:

Is there any custom ROM that will enable full/partial device encryption on this phone?

Has anyone successfully tried with some of the ROMs that are maintained here?

Thanks a lot

Thanks Harsh405, I've checked on Temasek thread but apparently nobody has tried it, and my question there remains unanswered.

I'v got an old version of ResurrectionRemix installed (ResurrectionRemix-M-v5.6.0.-201601106-wt88047) with full encryption activated. Don't know about recent versions though.
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] ftwkrm88:
I also have the same device like you..

And i confused what the custom rom can i flash be sides miui rom :confused:
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] Colosseo:
Thanks gwgjust, I'll take that a look!
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] Colosseo:
rkpg has given a pretty clear answer on CM Thread:

the Redmi 2 CPU ARM Cortex-A53 does not have native support for AES instructions,

so it won't support device encryption or, even if you flash it with a custom ROM that has the option to enable it, it will perform VERY poolry.

So, here is the final short answer: Redmi 2 doesn't support device encryption. And even if you have changed the ROM and you can enable it, don't use it or you'll get huge problems. Instead, use Google Device Manager or the built-in "Find Device" MIUI functionality (https://i.mi.com) for protecting your device in case it's lost or stolen.

Additional information can be found here
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] rkpg:
Google device manager only help in finding phone, which is like peanut against full device encryption. Full device encryption helps to secure personal data being shared with servers of different apps and sites. No firewall or antivirus can stop sharing data with app and internet servers except full device encryption which Apple phones do.
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers] Colosseo:
Totally agree. The only thing that these apps can do for security is allowing user to remote wipe the phone :rolleyes:

Encryption should work in ARM64 builds, geekbench tests show big difference in AES performance:

19.4 MB/sec (32bit) VS 354.6 MB/sec (64bit)

When laid flat on a table, does the device rock side to side when tapping the screen or does it stay stationary? I typically leave my phone on my desk at work and the rocking drove me crazy when I had an M7.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] afuller42:
it slightly rocks cause of the camera being raised up in the back. I don't see why they didn't just make it slightly thicker and protect the lens better.

Yelp facebook drains my battery. I log out now, seems to help
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] bailyc:
There seems to be a lot of variability out of the box. Mine has always had mediocre battery performance, even with no additional apps installed. I should have exchanged it when j had the chance, but I thought an update might fix it. Disabling this and that can make small improvements, but nothing I do has ever made it outstanding. There are some with great battery performance but I personally believe that with the exception of a few horrible apps (like facebook) there's only so much a user can do to influence battery for US devices. Either you have a good one, or you don't.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] tavito05:
Yeah I totally agree. I have friends who have outstanding battery performance and no matter how much i try, I still get very inconclusive results. I'm big into development and nothing has solved the issue with the limited resources that we have without root

Hello!

I own an Lg G4 for 3 days now. And I came from Samsung S4.

I got used with the keys from Samsung and I was wondering if I could have the functionality also here on LG.

Hi!

Is it any software, hacks or possible to make a program where user can force the device to use GPRS instead of EDGE on Windows Mobile ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] cyb3rphr33k:
i think Communication Manager Pro can do that...

No it can't - only GSM/GPRS/EDGE vs UMTS/3G (I think)

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aziztheprophet:
Hi Knocksock!

Did you find a way to handle this?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Knocksock:
A person is using a phone and software (well, it could be just a web-page) which connects to internet. He says GPRS is faster than EDGE due to bad signals when EDGE is used. Thats what they say, so I thought I should help out on this
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Knocksock:
No, I haven't :( Any ideas ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aziztheprophet:
Not really, I´ve been looking for it quite a while but I´m sure there must be a registry entry that links to the EDGE interface. My problem is that the device iPaq 6915 stopps data transfer when connected to EDGE.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Knocksock:
Ok, seems to be almost the same problem then

Does flashing the unlocking zip wipe the user partition?

Also, what partition do I flash the unlocking zip to?
[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] MiauLightouch:
1. no. it's not like official unlock.

2. ummm, when you flash zip, is there an option to choice which partition to apply? I don't think so.

Your are really a genius!! Can you make similar shell script to unlock ZE550KL ? Unofficial Bootloader Unlock for ZE550KL? I will provide every info you need from my device. Many ZE550KL users will be thankful to you!!!!
[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] MiauLightouch:
no, you already have official unlock method,

make a unofficial unlock like this isn't worth.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] sziraqui:
official method is not working for those who updated their ZE550KL to v1.17.40.1234 and rooted their ROM before trying Unlock App.

Please bro, please make unofficial method for unlocking ZE550KL, its worth.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] MiauLightouch:
do you know the bootloader of ZE550KL is different to ZE500KL's?

I think you need to try unroot or reflash stock rom to roll back.

or try 'fastboot oem lock' to relock, and unlock again.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] Yash5895:
unroot your device and then unlock bootloader and then root again it works perfectly!!
[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] sziraqui:
Failed [unknown command]

I have tried unrooting. I have even tried all possible combinations of firmware version and Unlock App.

Previously, phone used to simply reboot when I use unlock app.

But few days before, I flashed ZE600KL's 1.15.40.771 firmware and ran the Unlock App. I got this message: "The device is unlocked" after second attempt. But in fastboot, I get device locked status false. After this I flashed ZE550KL's 1.17.40.1234 but still Unlock App says "The device is unlocked" and my device is actually locked which is evident from fastboot oem device-info. Also I can't flash custom recovery.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] Muminek111:
This method is functional for update v13.10.7.1.

I tried it.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] MiauLightouch:
reflash rom of current version make the system partition as clean as default, and start update without problem.

it didn't cause any problem if you open the bootloader, at least I didn't have any difficult.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] Muminek111:
What is it relock. It's again lock bootloader.

Thank you for answer. Do I have to flash over twrp or over custom recovery.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] MiauLightouch:
no idea, what are you talking about?

still can't understand, do you mean "do i have to replace recovery with twrp?", it's up to you.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] Muminek111:
I'm sorry. I'm learning english language. I mean "do i have to replace recovery with twrp?"
[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] Muminek111:

How do I do it. Put zip to SD card and install zip in twrp.

[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] choacandra:
sorry can you help me, i just want to root my phone, im on MM frimware, the i boot to twrp-MM

like always i try to backup my current rom, then when i start to backup i accidently cancel the progress my twrp is hang

after that my phone reboot itself and stuck at asus bootsplash with eror message "cant load invalid boot.img"

my friend told me to reflash the MM boot.img but it didnt make any different, i still can boot to home screen if i boot the boot image, it mean is should use "fastboot boot boot.img" command to boot-up my phone

wht i should to do to make my phone back to normal
[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] MiauLightouch:
I can ensure you must do something between you cancel backup and reboot.

boot TWRP again, if you had root, you must unlock bootloader now.

next time, i won't reply any human error like this.
[Zenfone 2 Laser Android Development] mariusz1972:
Hi ! No worry mate I have had just couple min ago the same problem after booting to TWRP in fastboot mode.

Personally from what I've seen this is the best and most affordable for the HTC 10 to show off it's beauty (clear transparency) as well as protect it. Also, great for using a dbrand skin to add extra flair and personality with a level of protection to the skin (Will be adding pictures of it with dbrand skins, once they arrive in the mail). Dbrand just their skins for their HTC 10 pre-orders.

[IDEs, Libraries, & Programming Tools] stonemonkey:
Hi all, I'm new here and to android programming, I don't know Java so am using c++. I am programming graphics routines to directly read/write pixels to buffers/SDL surfaces for sprites/polygons etc.

A problem I'm having is that when the device is rotated and the orientation switches between landscape/portrait the screen surface is getting messed up and I can no longer access it.

Is there a way in c4droid/SDL2 to set and lock the orientation to landscape? The only solution I've been able to find online is to set it in the manifest file of the APK but how do I do that with c4droid since that is what I'm creating the APK file with?

Another issue involving the manifest file is setting permissions since there are things I don't need and would prefer it if the installer didn't ask for.

Thanks in advance for any help with this.

Stonemonkey.
[IDEs, Libraries, & Programming Tools] stonemonkey:
Well, I've kind of got the rotation issue sorted, I was trying to do some things in sdl2 the way I'd done it in SDL with the surface I was drawing to, it's mostly fixed by copying my buffer to a texture and scaling that onto the screen instead of doing the scaling myself, not managed to lock the orientation yetbut I think it might be possible to extract, edit and replace the manifest from the generated apk, would that be right?

Another issue I'm having, I'm software rendering, and using some inline assembly but can't seem to access the fpu, i get some error during compiling saying'selected processor does not support arm mode' I've tried setting some switches (although to be honest I'm not sure exactly what I'm doing) to select different CPUs or to select arm mode but I'm just getting'permission denied' errors when i try to compile.
[IDEs, Libraries, & Programming Tools] stonemonkey:
ok, so I'm using APK Editor to edit the manifest and i can remove all the permissions except WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE, when i try to remove that, my app crashes straight away when i try to run it but I'm not trying to write anything, the only thing im accessing is loading a sound file from the resource folder. Anyone got any ideas what might be the problem?
[IDEs, Libraries, & Programming Tools] stonemonkey:
Turns out c4droid uses a software implementation for floating points but ive found a way to access the vfp and neon coprocessors now so that's that problem solved.
