[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] Pyls:
I have unlcoked bootloader and installed twrp

Im on global stable rom.

The global rom encrypted all the files.

Twrp cant mount encrypted, therefore i cant format or reflash rom from it.

I know how to decrypt the phone.

Its gonna take me some hours and alot of work.

Is there a twrp witch reads encrypted disk?

If i can extract the key would it be possible to use in twrp?

Or do you recommend to flash rom that lets you chose if you want encryption. :cool:
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] Hasapimapetilon:
I´ve got the same problem. Did you enable encryption or it was enabled by default?
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] Pyls:
Yeah it was enabeled buy default.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] Hasapimapetilon:
!SOLUTION!

1) download "Xiaomi Mi 5 Latest Global Developer Version Fastboot File Download" from here http://en.miui.com/a-234.html

2) extract this files "system.img" and "boot.img" from downloaded zip

3) flash this files with ADB over CMD ("fastboot flash system system.img" and "fastboot flash boot boot.img")

4) now you have this developer ROM without encryption (i know, it´s a little hardcore solution, but it works :D )

5) now flash last TWRP and BOOT img for Mi5 from here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24499762636006354

(over the ADB)

6) boot TWRP, skip encryption screen (yes it is still displayed) but now you can wipe all partitions in advanced mode!

7) after the wipe, mount MTP storage in TWRP, copy the zip file you want to your device and inslall this zip over the TWRP

8) reboot, wait 10-15min and enjoy new ROM ;)
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] veimus:
I had same problem, in TWRP I was asked for encryption password, I didn't had it so I did "format data" and after few sec, i was able to see sdcard. But of course that will format sdcard and data partition.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] hasapimapetilon01:
You were lucky, I couldn't made format of sdcard, TWRP didn't able this function because of encryption. Actually TWRP couldn't mount it and therefore it couldn't be formatted.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] kozmo2k4:
Last week, after running some updates from the Play Store, I received out of storage notifications.

Had a look around the phone, and realised there is a 2GB cache partition, that is largely unused.

I had used Odin to flash OK3 firmware, downloaded from SamMobile, a while back. I vaguely remember that Odin did failed with a message about PIT, but on the second run, it completed without an error. The phone has been running well since then.

Can anyone confirm the cache partition size?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] bilgerryan:
Yes the cache partition is 2GB because this is where OTA files are downloaded to. It is to ensure there is always enough space to download an update as some of them are over a GB. There's a mod called SwapItOn that lets you use this space for a large swap file (whatever size you want, mine is over 1 GB) to help give you some extra RAM.

[ZenFone 2 General] IP1337:
While phone is off and charging , a charging battery appears on screen. If I hold power button for a while, + symbol disappears. It's that does plus symbol indicates fast charge? Does it take longer to charge without plus symbol and battery lasts longer?
[ZenFone 2 General] daweed Ds:
Yes, plus means fast charge, our phone fast charge 70% after that % it switch to normal charge
[ZenFone 2 General] IP1337:
Are there any advantages of turning off fast charging mode below 70%?
[ZenFone 2 General] zerg_protoss:
No and the only way to do that is with a normal charger one that is not Qualcomm quick charge.

The only difference is the heat output when the phone is fast charging but phone has being designed to work normally with this charging temperatures so no no worries about that
[ZenFone 2 General] jman0:
Don't worry, Intel processors have always been known for dealing very well with high temperatures, usually better than other manufacturers. And I can assure you this phone heats way less than many other similarly powered smartphones
[ZenFone 2 General] diseezneal:
does custom recovery/ root disable fast charge?

coz i think, fast charge is somehow disabled in my phone after TWRP/Root...

Then follow this thread : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2432476 , follow KDZ method to get it done.

Once you are on lollipop, Root again, install recovery using autorec ( if you happen to find an unresponsive button , lmk) and make a nandroid backup, then flash cm on it.

Lmk if you need further assistance.

[Android Head-Units] Manu Berlin:
Hello there!

I've just a general question. I bought recently a rooted HU from audiosource (D90-610) and I guess I have the Allwinner R16 chip with a IQ Navi firmware.

I'm a pretty noob in this kind of environment because I had always experience with Apple iOS.

My question; Is it possible to replace the current com.tw.radio_78cc.apk with another one? Like copy/paste?

To get you an idea I'd like to add a screenshot but I can't. That is weird. However I'm referring to this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64239880&postcount=7829

Thank you in advance
[MTCB Hardware Development] jakejm79:
So long story short, when attempting to replace the caps for the radio circuit (for the 2nd time since the first time I used ones that weren't quite right) I screwed things up, the headunit still works I just have no radio audio.

Any thoughts on a fix?

I could replace the main board, but I've already done the Audio Mod and then I'd still have to swap the caps on the new one (or live with the lack of treble).

What about a USB FM tuner, maybe something that even has HD radio?
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
Contact the factory and buy a new radio IC ?
[MTCB Hardware Development] jakejm79:
That was plan B, tho it would have to be a whole new main board, was wondering if there was a cheaper and easier solution that might also improve radio reception, seems like maybe one of the DAB/DAB+ adapters would work but there doesn't seem to be a decent software solution for those, at least not one that would be good enough to compete with the standard radio app.
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
Why cant you remove the original tuner and solder on a new one, whats wrong with the 10 DAB solutions in th DAB thread ?
[MTCB Hardware Development] jakejm79:
It's not the tuner that is bad, its circuitry on the main board, long story short, I had done the radio audio frequency with caps that werent quite the right value, upon trying to redo it with the correct ones, one of the traces got damaged, so while the tuner part works the circuitry that feeds it via the radio input selection doesn't.

I looked at the DAB solutions, but we don't have DAB or DAB+ here (our digitial/HD radio is a completely different spec for which there are no USB modules). I could use a DAB/DAB+ module for just the FM, but from what I have seen none of the software parts of the solutions look very attractive compared to the stock radio app especially considering I wont have the added features of DAB/DAB+ like the artwork, song titles (the stations over here are really poor in terms of their RDS data), etc.
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
I see, what part of the world are you in ?

The app could eaily be altered, but you cant just tune into the FM signal, it only works if the DAB signal drops out.

Get a new motherboard then, I dont think theyre expensive.
[MTCB Hardware Development] jakejm79:
US, in that case it seems like a DAB solution wouldn't work for my need, if it only switches to FM has a fall back and needs a DAB signal initially.

I ordered one, but I believe it's defective so I am now waiting to hear back from them, would have loved a standalone option that would have improved on the appalling reception the standard tuner gets.
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
No DAB in US, no HD radio solution by any MTCB manufacturers ? No USB HD radio solution ?

Theres something wrong if your tuner gets bad reception, do you have an OEM antenna booster in your car ?
[MTCB Hardware Development] jakejm79:
Yeah it sucks, I would have even settled for a satellite radio option, not that I can find a USB solution for US HD radio spec, I think its a really limited market, plus the phone carriers (main android market) aren't particularly found of FM/HD radio being available on android (or other) devices.

No the car is old (1999) so just the standard antenna, on the previous board it worked (wasn't has good as OEM radio, but acceptable, I tried some of the aftermarket boosters and they made things worse). With the new main board all I get is static and it wont auto tune to even the most local stations.
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
The age of your car isnt that relevant - have you actually checked the base of your antenna for a power lead ?

Can you post links to the "boosters" youve tried or similar ?
[MTCB Hardware Development] jakejm79:
The antenna is a standard antenna, I've had numerous other aftermarket radios with no issues before including my Ouku unit and my previous JY unit worked it just wasn't as good as OEM.

I used one off ebay and then another direct from Joying.
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
Have you actually checked the base for a power lead ? What type of booster did you try ?
[MTCB Hardware Development] jakejm79:
I think we are getting off topic here, I'm not looking for a way to improve radio reception, the unit wasn't great (compared to the OEM radio) but it was acceptable. Just looking for another option for FM radio reception, seems like there isn't one if you aren't in a DAB/DAB+ market area.
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
There are several solutions to having a poor FM reception with these units and many people buy boosters that are not actually boosters, I was just simply asking a few questions to see if any of the solutions would help you, not interested ? Then I ll shut up.
[MTCB Hardware Development] rhacy:
If installing an external HD Radio add-on is something you have interest in, consider checking out the Directed Electronics HD Car Connect Radio DMHD10001. These add on units can be had for $30 US or less on ebay and connect to your head unit via the AUX in RCA audio connections or via FM modulation. That said, I recommend using the RCA connections to anyone, as the FM modulation will usually have lessor overall audio quality. Please note that these specific Directed Electronics HD Radio Units need to have a ground jumper wire soldered from one or both of the tops of the gold RCA jacks to the black DC Ground in order to fix the over-modulation (distortion) issue. To do this jumper cleanly, remove the case cover and solder the jumper to the 90 degree ground pin at the plug connector. I also recommend drilling some vent holes in the upper case cover to help cool the unit as it does heat up.

Please note that these HD Radio units are only for use in the US (as far as I know), and are best used in areas of the Country that have more than a few HD channels available like here in So Cal. They do work with non HD AM/FM channels too. Some of the pluses are the additionally available music and news content in HD with no monthly fees, somewhat higher sound quality, as well as the overall better sound quality when compared to the built in FM tuners in the current Chinese android head units.

Attached is a pic of the grounding needed to fix the factory over-modulation flaw when using the RCA audio connections.

Moreover, you should be able to find an external satellite radio add-on unit that ties in via the RCA audio in connections if no usb version is available.

Hope this helps...

Your mileage may vary.

Best to all,

R
[MTCB Hardware Development] jakejm79:
Thank you, I was thinking about something like that (obviously via aux in and not FM modulation, since my FM doesn't work). What I would love would be something like this that then had an Android app that could be used to remotely control the unit.

I had an HD radio add on box for a Clarion NX501 years ago, I don't live in a part of the country that has a ton of HD stations and depending on where I drive I don't always have the best coverage, but it is a possibility.
[MTCB Hardware Development] jakejm79:
I appreciate the input, but I think there is some confusion over my needs.

I need an external FM tuner (i.e. something USB or the like with an android software solution for tuning). I have two motherboards, one has damaged traces for the radio circuitry so there is no radio audio (BT, streaming apps, etc are fine) the other that was bought has a replacement seems to have a defective tuner or something, I get nothing but static. This isn't an issue with the antenna or anything since prior to the damage on the original motherboard I had acceptable reception.

So to recap, I don't need to improve reception (tho if the replacement tuner offered better SQ or reception that wouldn't be a bad thing). I just need to find a way of getting an FM signal to the unit via USB or Aux in. Something like Rhacy would be good, but I was hoping for something a little more integrated and controllable through an android interface.
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
Yes, I know what you need, we touched on a new motherboard to fix your problem, I was advising for when you fit your new motherbaord, basically, the FM reception on these units is pretty good, once you have done a few basic things.

But I didnt realise you actually had the motherboard already and your problem is static.

In that case its HIGHLY likely that you simply need to flash the MCU to solve your problem - what device do you have and what MCU version ?

I recently had a similar problem (no radio, just static) and all that was needed was an MCU update, its very common after updating.

It could also be the wrong tuner type is set in factory settings, have you tried playing around with them ?
[MTCB Hardware Development] jakejm79:
Thank you for the MCU mentioning, you could be onto something, the new mobo didn't behave exactly like my old one, I had issues trying to get my phone to pair with BT (though that could be due to new MAC address but same BT device name, I didn't work too hard on it since the radio issue was more pressing). But also the buttons on the front acted a little weird, like normally when I have one of the MTC apps open (radio, their music player, etc) if I hit the home button on the front of the unit it would keep that app playing but return me to the home screen, with the new mobo it closes the app like I pressed the back button, have to press the soft home button in the top left of the screen to keep it playing music.

I have the old mobo back in now, I will try and see what the MCU version is on that and then install the new mobo and see if its the same or different and try upgrading it.

I did try all the different options for the radio device under the factory settings menu, but all but one (the original one selected) resulted in just silence rather than static.
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
You will probably have to try different BT devices in factory settings as well. What MCU version is your new mobo ?
[MTCB Hardware Development] jakejm79:
Just re-installed the new mobo, MCU is 2.73, which is what I had on the original one, flashed 2.59 no difference, then 2.73 again and still no difference, a couple of settings for the button and screen input settings were different, changing those fixed the issue with my home button closing MTC apps. BT was working after a few tweaks on my phone so it seems like all that isn't working is the radio tuner. I'm pretty sure at this point it was defective when I got it I even pulled the antenna out of the trunk and connected it directly to the back of the radio with no change.
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
I recently had a very similar issue after an update, nothing would make my radio work - I tried different versions of 5.1.1, with every MCU combo rom KLD v1.98 all the way up to the latest KLD MCU, then I tried 4.4.4, still nothing, my radio just would not work anymore. But I tried the very latest KLD6 MCU on my KLD (something that normally you wouldnt do, numbered versions are not normally interchangeable) and suddenly my radio worked, I thought it was broken.

So, find the very latest MCU you can, regardless of what yours was on before, if that doesnt work try a numbered MCU - you didnt say what unit you had, but if youve got a KLD then I d start with KLD6, there are also numbered KGL MCUs, try them if you have a KGL, if not you cant try this because KLD and KGL are the only manufacturers with numbered MCUs, but try the very latest MCU you can find :

It's a JY unit, only two MCUs available and neither did anything, they don't have anything more recent on their website than what is posted there, but I will contact them to see if there is anything.
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
Ok, it seems unlikely that both tuners are broken, have you tried every tuner type in factory settings ?
[MTCB Hardware Development] jakejm79:
Both tuners aren't broken.

On the original board the tuner was working properly, but after some damage to the traces (trying to redo the capacitor mod) there was no radio audio.

On the replacement board the tuner hasn't worked since I got it, I have audio (all static) but it wont tune to any station.
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
Yes, sorry, but have you tried changing the tuner type in factory settings ?
[MTCB Hardware Development] jakejm79:
Yes, TDA7786 is what was originally selected on both mobos and with that I get static on the new one, selecting any of the others and I get silence, I have tried them all rebooting between them.
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
Hmm, sounds like the exact same thing I had, if youve tried both MCUs maybe ask JY for a newer one ?
[MTCB Hardware Development] jakejm79:
I have been in contact with them, I will ask about a different MCU when they respond. I did try both and couldn't find anything newer than the 2.73.
