Analysis

Spending last couple of weeks analyzing whats going wrong booting a customized kernel on MIUI 8.

I have been comparing Shaky's source, Xiaomi's source, analysis the dts files of MIUI 7, 8, CM builds.

The DTS files from kernel source and MIUI7 kernel sources match nearby.

Looks like indeed Xiaomi has released an older kernel source.

Although I was not yet able to decide how Shaky's kernel boots.

But I haven't yet given up my tries to have a custom kernel on stock MIUI8, so fingers crossed.

I'm trying to get my jot dash to write better on the Nexus 9. There is a small distance that the system ignores, once past this distance the touch is recognized. Debug input shows all movement inside this area before UI detects it. (Probably having a hard time finding this because I don't really know what this would be called)

After looking through MotionEvents I see touchMajor & touchMinor then axis_touchMajor/Minor, I can't really tell by the description if it's for this or maybe something to help with pressure.

I tried a lower number for touchMajor & touchMinor for /sys/devices/platform/spi-tegra114.2/spi_master/spi2/spi2.0/input/input0/event0/uevent but didn't seem to be right.

Could anyone point me in the right direction for this? (Also, what would this be called?)

[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] tsykoza:
Good day all,

In the process of trying to debrand my huawei P9 Lite I think I may have mad a stuff up.

I downloaded: VNS-L21_C432B120_Firmware_CEE&Nordic European_Channel-Others_Andriod 6.0_EMUI 4.1_05013RHT.zip

Extracted the files and copied the update.app to the dload folder on the sd card.

Turned off the phone and initiated the update.

It re flashed the phone and everything appeared fine.

Phone no longer has vodafone nonsense on it

It now reports software version as : VNS-C900b150

Any other attempt to update the phone results in "Software is incompatible"

I see on the box the phone is a VNS-L31 - so I think I flashed the incorrect firmare.

I tried Killer8e's toolkit : http://xdaforums.com/huawei-p9lite/development/europe-vns-l31-toolkit-bootloader-t3432873

But this always displays phone model as unknown.

Is there a way to "force" a flash back to VNS-L31

Forgot to mention: Everything on the phone appears to be working fine in its current state.

Thanks
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] lzimbrea:
Have you tried to flash a l31 rom with the dload method?
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] tsykoza:
Just to clarify, The dload method is uncompressing the firmware and copying uppdate.app to a dload folder on the sd card.

If so then yes I have. It gets to 5% and then tells me incompatible software error and reboots.
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] lzimbrea:
Well, if you say that your device is fully functional, you can use it like that.

But if you want to restore it I personally think at two options:

1 - Try to force the update by modifying the build.prop and replace the model number (vns-l21 with vns-l31) but you will need a lot of patience

2 - Decompress the update.app and flash partitions manually via fastboot (boot, system, data, recovery, modem, cust and any other partitions are in the update.app)
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] tsykoza:
Thanks for the help.

I will try the fastboot method. I will search for it myself now, but if anyone has a decent howto it would be appreciated.

Hi everyone~ This would be my first thread here, hope to get along with you all~ Anyways, I had my Z5C for almost a year now, and just wanted to know if you guys have any recommended File Explorer. I've been using ES File Explorer since getting mine because the default File Explorer has way too less details and functions. But recently ES File Explorer gave me problems as well such as "Not Responding" and already has 100+ incidents since my last restart 3 days ago. :'( Anyway, I would like to know what File Explorer you guys are using and what would you recommend? One File Explorer with network feature or LAN would be nice too. Thanks guys~

ES FE(Free version) definitely most universal.

Root E(Paid version) using for system intrusion.

If i reboot my phone, it boots and i see an unfinished home screen, its shuts off and the red LED flashes 3 times and so the cycle continues.

Hi, I'm trying to pick out an app which does one thing and one thing only - simply wave at proximity sensor to wake up the phone so I do not have to use power button while I'm cycling.

I need the app to be as lightweight as possible and go easy on the battery, not to have any other functions only this one. And another thing is that the app would be easily turned off because I will use it just when cycling and I will turn off the app after I'm done.

Hey guys,

I got a problem. IGO Prima seems to be really quiet when i have it on max volume.

Is there a fix for that?
[MTCB Software Development] pa.ko:
I had same prob with Here and Waze alerts. Very quiet even the voce navigation was loud enough.

1. Be sure iGO is configured as default 'navigation' I.e. 'gps' app in settings

2. Set sound more to switch not to mix

That solved voice navigation level for me.

But... Alerts were still very low.

Found out that voice and us treated as 'GPS' channel while everything else (alerts) are treated as System channel.

So in order to rebalance you have:

1. In Factory settings lower radio and other audio channels and increase system until you are satisfied with their relative levels (yes the levels are relative in relation to overall volume level you set via main volume / button / sec)

2. Use some of custom modules (if included in your custom ROM - Mal for example includes several in the same time that allow to change different apps / channels sound kevels)

I found out that Factory defaults + custom modules may make a mess over volume control... So check everything and especially if there are contradictory settings in different modules
