Hi everyone :)

I have a small trouble installing the twrp custom recovery. At the moment, I have the 8.1.4 Miui with MM 6.0.1 official rom. With this, comes the MiRecovery, as you all know. So, to have the twrp recovery I flash the cwm recovery first, via MiRecovery as "update.zip". After that I swich off the phone and get again into cwm recovery. After this, I install the twrp recovery. Until here, no problem. The troubles comes now: if I swich off the phone and get into recovery it goes correctly to twrp recovery, but when I reboot to system to start the phone, if I try to get again to the recovery it comes the MiRecovery, not the twrp.

What am I doing wrong? :rolleyes:

(I flash the cwm recovery first because renaming the zip file of the twrp as update.zip, it does not work; that's why I install first the cwm recovery).

Any help will be wellcome.

Thanks in advance.

Toni.

[General Questions and Answers] Jodan2013MotoX:
It doesn't work.

I want to back up to drive, then download to another identical phone. Moto X 2013 xt1052

It keeps saying:

"NETWORK ERROR, THE DEVELOPER REALLY DOESN'T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING. They are on drugs. Probably."

That's exactly what google said on my phone.

That and some crap about a network error.

And a server error

SERVER ERROR? ARE THEY ON DRUGS? Wimbledon is in June, not Jan, so I hardly think anyone will be serving on centre court.

I just want it to work.

I press a button and I expect it to just work.

I don't know computer phone stuff, and a nandroid is a flavour of an ice cream? yes?

Tell titanium to just make it work.

[General Questions and Answers] Jodan2013MotoX:
It's uploading in bits before falling over.

Just up loaded another 24% so I'm just waiting for google or titanium to **** up and make me start screaming.

Again.

How difficult is it to make a backup app that backs up

and if there is a problem with the app or network, or connection or google servers

it just chills and goes into a holding pattern with an explanation as to why

and then fix/repair/carry on.

The developer shouLd fix this and if it is google, make titanium compatible with it

and if they need to talk it through with google, ****ing phone google up and MAKE IT WORK!

Google invented Android phones specifically so people can phone up google directly.

They should put me if charge

Of this or the Launch codes.

I'm easy on either option.
[General Questions and Answers] Jodan2013MotoX:
32%. Still uploading.

Clearly threats of a tactical nuke strike have the desired threat.

Why don't they just make it work properly?

ALSO

TITANIUM IS VERY VERY HARD TO USE,

it is not intuitive at all.

They should make it easy to use for non-tech types {like me}

as well as techies {Like my ex g/fnd}. She writes programs for banks.

I watch television programs. I am in the larger group that Titanium need to address when

creating a back up App.

We don't understand

And when we do, it often stops working properly. (The internet is full of posts by cleaver people with the same googledrivetitaniumbackupscncrap that I'm writing about).

Hi.

what is the easier way to downgrade from OOS4.0 without any issues. i did think about the Qualcomm unbrick tool but not 100% im on 100% stock again so no TWRP, running EXT4 not f2fs

Thanks

Encryption has nothing to do with downgrading (or upgrading), different partitions. ROM is on /system while encryption is on /data.

Worst case scenario is data loss, but the downgrading itself should work without issues.

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] runningslow:
My Radio is an Eonon GA2154 (MTCD_KLD). I'm trying to determine if the problem I'm having is a defect with my radio or if there is a problem with my car that's causing an issue with my radio.

I have my ACC standby time set to 2 hours. If I simply turn the key to ACC or ON (but don't crank the engine) in that timethe radio will come out of standby every time. If I crank the engine, the radio will restart and cold boot 9/10 times. When it restarts, I get a small electric pop from the speakers.

The continuous 12V power is wired directly to the battery, the GND is wired to the body of the car, and the ACC power is coming from the factory harness. When first installed, I had everything connected to the factory harness, but I rewired it an attempt to isolate the problem.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Luxferro:
Monitor the voltage on your continuous 12V power line when starting your car. Use something that records min and max (handheld DMM). The voltage might be dropping too much when the starter engages to turn over the motor - that's a huge electrical load on the battery (the starter).
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] runningslow:
The car turns over and starts fine. Are you suggesting that perhaps the power draw from the starter is enough to kill the radio?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Luxferro:
It's a possibility. If you want to narrow down if it's the car or the headunit, you probably want to know what is going on on both the switched and non-switched power lines from the car. If the voltage levels are all good during car starting, then you at least eliminated one variable.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] runningslow:
Okay, I'll try to get some data this evening after I get home from work. I'll dust off my handy DMM.

So, I'm going to check:

Voltage at battery during start

Voltage on constant power during start

Voltage on ACC during start

I have some ideas to bypass the crank event causing the reboot, should it in fact be something with the radio.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] runningslow:
I've taken some measurements from the constant 12V and ACC wires based on different key positions [OFF, ACC, ON (with engine off), START (cranking engine), ON (with engine running)] with my DMM and they are as follows:

Battery OFF: 12.4v

Constant 12V OFF: 12.4v

Constant 12V ACC: 12.4v

Constant 12V ON: 12.1v

Constant 12V START: dipped as low as 8.0v when starting through multiple test

Constant 12V ON (engine running): 14.0v

ACC 12V OFF: 0.0v

ACC 12V ACC: 12.3v

ACC 12V ON: 12.4v

ACC 12V START: 0.0v

ACC 12V ON (engine running): 14.0v

Functioning normally:

Cold booting:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3fZ6h0IBUI

I've been chatting with a Toyota Tech friend of mine who owns the same car and he suspects that voltage may be dropping too low (< 9.0V) during the crank and that it can't sustain the radio and it cold boots. I'm also occastionally loosing the memory for my auto-matic door locks as well. I had suspected it was the radio causing some sort of backfeed into a common wire causing the memory to erase, but the only wire they would have had in common I've bypassed by wiring directly to the battery. So, perhaps that voltage drop is causing both to reset.

EDIT: While I haven't had any other telltale signs, I definitely think battery is on its way out. I'm going to try an experiment tonight with my other car. I'm going to connect it to a second car with jumper cables this evening and see if I can get it to cold boot. Having it connected to a the second running car should prevent the voltage from dropping too much while cranking mine.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] ikerg:
interesting measurements.

My MTCD intel sometimes starts in cold and other times from standby (i have not faound any pattern)

It is expected that always start from standby

Probably my voltage that times was low and that's why it goes to cold boot when starting.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] runningslow:
If you've got a DMM, then check your voltage while cranking the engine. My Toyota Tech friend said that anything under 10V while cranking might cause problems like this or mess with other electronics in your car.

Oh, and as an update to that information. I did the test of connecting my wife's car with jumper cables and I couldn't get the thing to cold boot. The radio properly came out of standby every time. I now 100% believe (maybe 99%...) that battery is starting to go. Unless I get stranded somewhere or have to legitimately jump start the car, I'm going to live with the problem for now. I'm pricing new ones and I'll probably pick one up in a few weeks.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] ikerg:
My battery is completely new (i did change it in Decemeber), so i have to manage why sometimes cold boot exists (if it is related to voltage).

The problem is to measure it... as it is a random event i dont know how to manage to capture if the voltage drops occur
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] alex.o:
I have a joying mtcd and had to change the standby time from 2 hours to 10 minutes. It was draining the battery enough that the voltage was dropping low overnight and when starting. My radio didn't malfunction, but the cars computers didn't like the lower voltage. I would have random error lights or behavior with gauges while starting the car.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Chr1Zz_:
I have a Joying Intel unit, same problem caused by the voltage drop.

I installed a second 0,8Ah Batterie and a diode to solve the problem, it keeps the radio alive during the starting process and works very well.

Some users reported a capacitor on acc line might also work, but not for me. The acc line was not responsible for the reboot problem.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] runningslow:
Yeah, I wouldn't think the ACC is responsible, since it will get cut during the engine cranking anyway. The issue is the voltage drop from the battery on the constant 12V line. I was thinking about a capacitor or something like that on the constant 12V.

Would you be able to elaborate more what you did to solve the problem?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Chr1Zz_:
I installed a second battery parallel to the car battery, it's directly connected to the radio and small enough to take place behind it. A diode prevents the second small batterie during the engine cranking, so only the car batterie will be used for this process.

Maybe I can draw a picture to show how the connection is done if there are some people interested.

The costs for this construction is about 10-15€.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] runningslow:
My solution to prevent the cold boots has been to just set the standby to 30 seconds. That way I'm not expecting it to come out of standby. Even in this situation, I'm seeing other unwanted behavior with the car, like the settings for my automatic door locks. So, the low battery voltage isn't strictly effecting the head unit.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] runningslow:
I think I see what you're doing, but please, sketch up a diagram. I'm interested, even if no one else is. Thanks!

I'm planning to replace the battery in the car soon, probably this coming weekend, but it would be nice to have another layer of protection with the radio.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] ikerg:
I am interested too

On Intel Units there is no Stanby timer configuration anymore. They did remove it from software, as it is expected to have very low current consuming during the standby (and, due to the lot of problems that they had on the RK3188 units with this setting).
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Chr1Zz_:
Okay, I created a small sketch just for now, hope you can see what I did. Maybe I can do a better one when I have more time.

The green painted wire is the yellow one in your car, I just had no yellow.

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] runningslow:
Perfect. Thank you.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] runningslow:
Okay, so I can source the battery for this, but I'm not as certain about the diode. Something like this?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Chr1Zz_:
Looks like the battery which I bought, too, I payed 9€ on eBay.

The diode should work, but I think there are also cheaper ones available.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] runningslow:
Yeah, wasn't a question of price per se. I just want to make sure that's what I'm looking for.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] runningslow:
I'm replacing the main battery this afternoon. If that fixes my problem (and it should), I'll be happy. I may still do the small secondary battery as extra insurance, though.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Chr1Zz_:
Yes, usually it should work.

But with the second battery, you don't have to hope every day that your radio will start immediately because it will :D

That post helps alot, what version MCU and Android?

Note that these units will reset on low voltage during cranking. What is the B+ voltage, measured at headunit (NOT acc +12) when cranking?

If you wish to skip diagnostic steps, suggest the solutions offered in the previous email posts.

In my case, I included an additional 8000uf cap inside headunit on B+ and included additional 1000uf on cathode side of +acc isolation diode, inside headunit. I used schematic. I did this to overcome the odd instance of coldboot during longer than normal cold start cranking.

I.e. how have you validated the unit receives +12 during cranking? If you do have +12 and it says, you have another problem.

Probably best you see an autoelectrician.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] f465gt:
It's an old thread but just to sum it up in case somebody stumbles across this:

- Radio is rebooting while cranking

- reason 1: battery is bad and voltages drops below working range of the radio, which is presumably 9-10V

- reason 2: ACC is cut during cranking, most likely on Japanese cars, this causes the radio to go into sleep for a very brief moment, since ACC comes back immediately --> this aborts the transition into sleep and causes a full reboot

- Radio is doing a cold start/full boot before cranking, after cold night

- reason is unclear, it happens to various users of PX5 and PX6 devices

- I'll try to track the reason down here: https://xdaforums.com/android-auto/android-head-units/px5-boot-temperatures-low-t4188383

- note: This is NOT related to the battery
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] RayLen:
I had the same issues with the cold boot of my radio during starting of my car. The reason is... the battery is getting old and the designers of the radio cheaped out on the electronics of the head unit. My solution was to let the radio power itself off after 1 hour... that was a good deal for me. If it was only on standby over night it sucks too much on the battery and the overnight discharge overall was enough for the voltage to sometimes drop below cold boot threshold.

The guys who designed the head unit should have thought of that... of course they cheaped out on necessary parts to prevent that. I never bothered but I guess if you build a small heavy duty condensator that can hold enough power you can prevent that short moment of voltage drop. That would be enough for the radio to stay alive for the short moment of crancking.

Perhaps get to the root cause of your head unit fault.

Your unit or vehicle had a fault if it discharged the battery.
