Guide on how to install Magisk and stuff and use Pokemon Go.
[Android General] brownchm:
It's not that important to me.
[Android General] agentfazexx:
Question... Can't I just uncheck root in SuperSU's settings and run it that way? (I have not gotten the new update yet so I'm asking beforehand). Magisk appears to have this option. Or do I need to totally uninstall SuperSU by dirty flashing the ROM again, and not SuperSU?
[Android General] SecSpyral:
Simply unchecking root will not work. You have to use systemless root

Well, guess I'm not updating then.

[Android General] agentfazexx:
So by completely unroot...Can I accomplish this by going into TWRP, clearing cache/dalvik, flashing again the ROM, GApps, kernel and skipping SuperSU..then installing Magisk? I really don't want to have to do a clean install just for this.
[Android General] Tesla:
Unless you want to do a clean install skip ROM, Gapps and kernel.

Do a unroot in SuperSU. Then look for root-files in system. Like the OP in Magisk says.

After that install Magisk in TWRP.
[Android General] agentfazexx:
Oh so I don't need to reflash anything?

I'll check the Magisk thread and post there I guess if I get stuck.
[Android General] Tesla:
I didn't ;)

Worked for me.
[Android General] agentfazexx:
Even if I installed SuperSU via the zip? Just unroot in the app and I'm good?
[Android General] Tesla:
It's phh's SuperUser you are to flash.

Do this and check back with me.

1. Uninstall root&superuserSU

2. Open TWRP

3. Flash magisk uninstall

4. Flash magisk v6

5. Flash phh's SuperUser

6. Reboot

7. Install ppsuperuser app

8. Install magisk app

So FIXED on CM based Nougat roms: only change the media.msm8956hw=1 to 0 in the build prop.

Tested with Lineage, Xenon, NitrogenOS. I think when it's enabled the VR playing quality wrong.

This method wont working on MIUI, because 0 is the default value.

How to fix on MIUI 9.5: post

Hi members! Redmi Note 3 Pro QA

So a simple question and remark. I'm using Var's VR Video Player. This is one of the best optimized player at the moment for all VR formats. Tested a lot of players, the quality as the same with others, so the next problem is not an app problem.

VR video quality is very good in the older MIUI v7.1.x.x and 7.2.x.x roms (not tested all MIUI roms) and Krexus (build 3) rom.

Tried on other roms (I think in all roms), and the quality is not as good, not as sharp the picture. Blurred the edges and the lines not as sharp. All other roms, new MIUI's, all CM base and AOSP roms this happening. Tried to change some encoding options in the build.prop, like in Krexus rom, but not helped.

In Krexus the quality looks like when we disabling hardware encoding in the player app in the newest CM roms. Very good picture, looks like in PC. (but on this rom the hw encoding working).

Yesterday tried the lastest MIUI 8 MM rom, the quality as in other CM-s, but the seeking (stepping?) is very fast, at the moment playing. Not buffering 3-4 sec and not stopped the playing like in other CM and AOSP based roms.

I contact with the Var's player devs and finally we came to the conclusion, it's a rom bug.

Anyone experienced this? Or if playing VR anyone could to check Krexus rom? I don't think it's a simple value problem in some files in the rom, maybe a codecs problem?

So the 2 problem what need to eliminating:

- Hardware decoding quality improve, like in the Krexus rom

- Seeking improvement, like in the lastest MIUI 8 MM dev rom.

If I don't know about this quality problem I would not even notice, but always when trying in new roms I'm goes back to Krexus.

I'm not a dev, so only the testing, and this is in above, what I could to do. If you have an idea and it's not comlicated I'm trying, testing the metode in newer CM rom if this will help a bit.

UPDATE:

Made a screenshot on the systems (check the hills and the licence plate on the car):

Left: CM13 / Right: Krexus old

[url=https://postimg.org/image/o0byvant9/][/URL]

Logcat

Yesterday I checked 9+ roms.

Working this Krexus (the oldest build 3, in the new similar the problem). TheStrix CM14 build and a really old MIUI rom.

Not working: All CM13 and AOSP builds and similar modded roms, like Resurrection, Slim, Nexus Exp, Qualcomm AOSP, Exodus, Santhosh CM, Orion, DU, Temasek, iZi etc. On iZi the gyro not working in the app.

Any solution devs? Thanks.

I didn't notice any difference from MIUI 7.x.x.x to 8.x.x.x to CM13 to CM14.

I think it's your brain making you to think that it's blurred, I had this exact problem with my brain when I first tried VR on my Redmi Note 3. I currently have ANT VR (which comes bundled with Lenovo K4 Note but I bought it seperately) and have no problems with it.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Steve1207:
Only some older MIUI builds working good with this higher quality. That's why I tested the roms. On the picture is visible the difference (two system, cropped and merged the two screenshot) and from now it's not a brain trick. I'm using VR more than one year, making and editing videos, so have a difference with that.

If check the original channel VR official videos, on SBS 180 and SOS 180 videos have this issue with HEVC, but also see the differences on H264 . If only check youtube and simple 360 video the quality is very similar. So it's a codec problem I think. Btw thanks if you could help with the logs, which cause this affects thanks again :)

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] KreAch3R:
Hey [MENTION=2946536]Steve1207[/MENTION], this is some great debugging, and much more that I'd be able to do to help you, kudos. I have no idea, right now, what could be the culprit. I noticed though that you found the some problem in a newer Krexus-CAF build VS an older one? If this is the case, we could go through the changes in my repos and find out what broke it.

So, the logcats of the working vs the non-working krexus-caf might be helpful, and the changelogs (/system/etc/changelog.txt) of the two ROMs.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Steve1207:
Hello [MENTION=3190122]KreAch3R[/MENTION], I upload the changelogs and the logcat about the last builded krexus (renamed the files for the easier recognition). Hope you found what couse this problem. Thank your help!
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] KreAch3R:
I took a look at the logcats. What I found was, that both cm13 and krexus-wrong build (the ones that don't work) use this driver:

While the only working krexus build uses this driver:

The changelog seems to agree with me, as you the dates make me assume that this commit is included in the broken build.

So maybe, what you can do is, try to grab all adreno libs from the working krexus, put them into another ROM and see if they work :P
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Steve1207:
I gave up for today. Made a flashable pack with the old libs, but dosn't work or when booting with other rom don't change the quality. But I'm trying again tomorrow, now search and read about this libs. Thanks your help [MENTION=3190122]KreAch3R[/MENTION], I think helped a lot for the Kenzo developers with this, maybe someone fix this! :)

What about that krexus version that has good quality? Does it has any bug? Its safe for daily use?

Nice! Please report back to us any news.

What I noted is that performance is not that good in games anymore, there was some problems with fps, do you guys know what caused that ? I'm on raidon 3.9 kernel, default settings.

In case the problem for you guys is related to what looks like the two screens being misaligned, I might have a fix. I had the same, and read somewhere to try setting up the phone using qr codes for different viewers through the google cardboard app. It worked for me with a setup by someone called José Francisco. I will try to find the same page again, but for now, just try different setups.

EDIT: It seems that youtube and browser do not work for me. The google web asks me to fill in PPI because it can't detect it. could it be some apps are not able to detect the PPI?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Hazihell:
Yep, I was having a bad experience in miui and a terrible one in cm, but I just figured some way to improve, those chinese vrs are a pain, there is no documentation, the solution is to create your own QR Code. It's actualy pretty simple, here is the link https://vr.google.com/cardboard/viewerprofilegenerator/

Send the link through a qr viewer or copy the address into the phone, now your pc and phone are connected, put ur phone in vr and test those configurations. That fixed most problems for me today.

PS: google web ou mention is the qr generator ? It always ask for ppi. There was one qr that I tried one time that bugged my youtube too in VR. Best option isto create your own.

Go to settings -> Today and you can select "Use this Background" and pick a picture on your phone. There are other ways to do it as well.

Regarding "change icon", again, search because I'd need more info on what icon you want to change. Best bet is to just search the Kaiser forum, not the Kaiser Upgrading forum.

Good luck w/ the Tilt, it's a great phone!

Okay, so I really like my Moto X Pure. I used it in Florida with no problem with network or data or text or anything. The instant I left Florida my data dropped (couldn't load anything anywhere), I would get 1 text every 5 minutes, and phone calls couldn't be completed.

If I run speed test it'll take about a minute to find a server, my ping will be 500+, and my speed might get up to 0.9MBps for a split second, then drop to zero for a few seconds, then a spike of 0.9 again, etc.

I can watch the network bars go from full, to nothing, to full, to nothing, to 1 bar, switching from LTE, to H+, to 3G, to 2G, and all back over again. On every ROM, with every carrier, rooted, unrooted, stock, modified, updated radio, OTA radio, everything.

I've tried EVERYTHING

Revert back to completely stock (was running CM13.1)

Tried other ROMs

updated radio/modem

downgraded to 5.1

SWITCHED CARRIERS from Verizon to AT&T, tried T-Mobile sims....

EVERYTHING gives me the same issue! If I plop the sim cars into my nexus 6 or my G3 then I get connectivity and speeds no problem.

Unfortunately since I have unlocked the bootloader, I don't believe I can get warranty on this phone.....

But why would it work PERFECT in Florida, but nowhere else in the entire United States? I mean, NOWHERE. I did an across the country road trip.

I'm in the same boat. It seems my LTE speeds are fairly good here in Canada on Rogers. Sometimes I get decent 3G speeds but mostly it just fails entirely. Completely stock. No problems with SIM on other devices. Phone is 2 months old but it's been doing this since the beginning.

Hi,

I am not a dev and my knowledge on flashing and rooting is only from reading posts. Can I ask for a little advice and maybe instructions? Is it possible the rom from link can help with my situation described below?

I bought honor 8 frd al10 from china. The sim doesn't initiate. I firstly loaded android wear from play store to pair with my Huawei Watch. A message popped up saying 'this phone was flashed with unsupported config for companion. you must reflash it as either signed/user or unsigned/userdebug'. I tried to get help from seller but that's no use and they referred me to xda. They say my rom is EU. In the settings, the build is FRD-C900B120. IMEI and MEID are showing as unknown. There is no Baseband version showing. I am not an expert but I know this ain't right. After watching some of the videos, I used ADB to get to fastboot. It says device unlocked. This is where i get stuck and don't know what else to do. I simply want this phone to work as it is intended to. Help, please.

Edit: I forgot to add that reset to factory settings does not work. goes to 13% and says failed.

Also, when I type in a code in dialler to get product ID to get bootloader unlock code from Huawei, nothing happens so I am stuck if the bootloader is not unlocked.

There is no OEM unlock option in the dev options.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] jerryhou85:
It looks like your phone and your ROM are in some twisted status: they are not match.

If you really use AL10 from China, there is a method to fully restore your phone to original status (AL10 original ROM). But I have to remind you the risk first, backup all your contacts to PC/GoogleContacts/Exchange before you proceed.

If you are ready, go to this post below, follow the instructions on 2nd post.

http://xdaforums.com/honor-8/help/honor-8-rooted-twrp-modaco-rom-unable-t3462039

1. Download AL10 stock rom from my Mega link.

2. Extract necessary files using method above.

3. Follow the rest of instructions.

Now you fully go back to Stock AL10 phone as when it was sold in China and you can start to work from there.

If you don't like China stock ROM, what you can do is Debrand/Rebrand your phone which means, in simple, you change some parameters in your phone, to let your phone and ROM thinks it is from some other region, like EU/ME.

You can find details about Debrand/Rebrand method and video guide in following 2 posts:

Wow. First of all, thank you kindly. Looks like a load of work. I will try it and I really appreciate your help and your time.

The device is AL10 as per box/back of the device itself. There is nothing on this phone I would care to loose. Its like this straight out of the box. I don't mind what software I am using as long as I can make calls, use internet, pair my watch, download apps from play store (i understand this may be the issue with Chinese rom). I think what seller was intending to do is the debranding to make it EU.

If you don't mind, I will contact you (quote) if I encounter issues on the way.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] jerryhou85:
Most HUAWEI's phones come with Google Play Services installed, what you need is Google Play Store, if I didn't remember it wrong. :)

From what I read, a proper debrand should never put your phone in a mess up status, but I haven't done that myself. If you can take time, maybe can study that SRK tool and debrand it yourself. Anyway, now you know you will have the final restore weapon. :cowboy:
