[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] SolecAsses:
Hi guys,

I installed a version of MIUI on my le max 2 and after a few tests my device ended up dying.

I used the unbrick process from unbrick android guides.

After restoring the QFyl version my device had a problem on the screen. The screen is divided and the beginning of the screen is in the middle of the device.

I'm new to device modifications, do you have any idea what might have happened?
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] mame76:
Seems display died, is it also much slower? Had same issue with my x800us

Gesendet von meinem Le X820 mit Tapatalk
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] SolecAsses:
In fact the screen remains fluid using the EUI, using cyanogem and mookie it is slower.

I found a rotation change tutorial and thought it was some change in build.prop, but I could not find any properties for it.

I took a print from my phone and seeing the image shows that the screen is normal.

I believe it's something related to the software, but I have no idea what it is.

From your other device I changed the screen and it returned to normal?
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] mame76:
Still waiting for the new display ?
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] SolecAsses:
I still believe the problem is software.

When you change the screen, let the problem be corrected.

Tks!

If there's a way to do this I haven't found it. I have my phone charging downstairs and my watch beside my bed. It is just out of bluetooth range and it connects and disconnects all night and vibrates almost constantly. I really like my setup and would love to be able to just SHUT OFF THE CONSTANT VIBRATION when it is in the charger.

A while ago I came across this thread:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12016011

and I'd like to know whether the Google collecting stuff also applies to a default LineageOS install? Or does it start only after GApps is installed (even the smallest possible one)?

Personal info, the minute you enter your google email address.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] AraujoJordan:
When you put you email or use some Google app product you agree to share your personal data.

[LineageOS Questions & Answers] Neuromancer:
OK, but that's limited to that app and the permissions you give it - and that goes pretty much for all apps, Google or not. I was thinking more about the system-wide "telemetry".
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] Exabyter:
Not really. Google has tentacles into so many things it's mind boggling.

For example: you may think that you are keeping your location data private by turning off that nice shiny location services toggle right at the top of your screen. But guess what? By default, various Google frameworks are set to override that whenever they feel like it, to ping your location silently anyway.

And even if you have the GPS chip disabled in hardware (or it doesn't exist at all), they will try to triangulate you based on other visible entities like WiFi and Bluetooth signals. (You know those Google Streetmap cars that drive around everywhere taking pictures of everything? They also are collecting a giant database of every single wireless signal they encounter, and linking them to the exact geo coordinates where they were detectable. And they also collect this data from every device running Android. So if your downstairs neighbor has a WiFi access point or bluetooth device in Google's location database, the simple fact your mobile device can see one of those signals means they've now got YOUR location, too.)

Neat, huh? :eek:

---------- Post added at 13:25 ---------- Previous post was at 13:21 ----------

Even the "pico" Gapps - which includes (IIRC) just the Gplay services framework, Gplay app, PIM sync and Google Cloud Messaging components is enough.

On one of my devices I have pico Gapps installed on Lineage 14.1 and, as per usual, it is constantly trying to get my location. (I know this because I have Privacy Manager set to popup an approval prompt for both Gplay and Gplay services.) Another thing that the Google frameworks like to do is send/receive silent SMS messages. Once again, if it were not for the CM/Lineage Privacy Manager prompts, this would all be invisible.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] AraujoJordan:
Agree with Exabyter. Google is soo inside the apps and it's services that it's hard to predict if they can get your data or not. The Google Services Apps that give you access to lot of apps features have a lot of phone permission

Enviado de meu Mi 5s Plus usando Tapatalk
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] Neuromancer:
So using alternative markets such as F-Droid and Aptoide, and not installing GApps at all, can be a mitigating factor?
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] Exabyter:
Yes. And I was thinking along those lines myself for quite a while.

Unfortunately the big problem with those app sources is that they cannot handle paid apps/subscriptions.

F-droid is great if you are an open-source pedant, and as much as I like it (because among other things, generally speaking most of the stuff on there isn't doing sneaky stuff), the selection is very small.

Aptoide has a large percentage of the major apps on Gplay, but many of them are there without the developer's permission. Anyone can create an appstore there and upload any APK they want. (I actually have a private store there I intend to use at some point as a sort of APK repository for my various devices, but in practice I'm not sure how well this will work) And if you get apps from a personal user's store there there's a possibility there's something illegitimate about it. Aptoide checks APK signatures but I like to run a local A/V scanner anyway. ;)

My current thinking is install the smallest possible open-source Gapps (eg pico), and then try to put a leash on what is left.

I'm still trying to work out how to accomplish that. Going to be posting a question in this forum shortly about location spoofing, for example. (In short: a recent AOSP patch may have really set us back here. :mad: )

So I got my s7 and after a week I try to take a picture today but see a lil black spot on the back camera.. Camera glass is clean without any scratches.. Very weird.. It stays in the pictures and video after taken as well.. Anybody with the same issue or a fix?

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] ffonegod:
From a friend
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] ffonegod:
So it turns out I did some research and it seems it was some dust trapped on the lens cover inside.. Some how it got in with a waterproofed cased phone.. But the fix was actually tapping the phone on a hard surface a few times and the spot vanished.. Weird but it solved the problem.. Make sure u don't damage your phone tapping it and do it with a hard case at your own risk

Got absolutely the same spot in my daughter's phone. A technician proposed to replace the camera. After I've read above, maybe a cleaning only will work. We'll do it this week.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] james909:
Ive got the same problem but about 5 specs. I've only had the phone for about 4 months. Ive replaced the rear camera lens glass but thats not got rid of it. The next step is to replace the camera module (£15 on ebay). But I'm worried i'll break the rear cover leading to more expense. It's a shame because its a good phone. None of my smart phones have lasted a year! Something always breaks. I had more joy with a g4 plus camera until my son threw it in the bath. I think Im going to sell this pbyone to someone more confident with repair and buy a Xiaomi from China.

---------- Post added at 02:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:27 PM ----------

I should add that this is shocking quality. A supposedly water proof phone that on launch cost over £500 with the camera as a main selling point. A quick google search will tell you that this issue frequently occurs on s5, s6, s7 etc. I think Samsung are more happy to sell new phones than make phones that last longer than the launch of the next model.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] mooms:

Thanks a lot....

Thanks a lot for the suggestion..i heard about it in some other blog and dint believe it until i saw it here on xda.... Surprisingly this happened with note 8.... And still surprising is the same solution..... Thanks again...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] james909:
Tapping didn't work for me. I bought a new camera module off of AliExpress for $5. Paid a phone shop $5 to get the back off. Replaced the lens myself. The camera is perfect now. You must make sure the lens is exactly the same down to the colour of the flex and writing on it. The first two I got failed because they were different versions. Some ebay sellers use the wrong photo in their listings.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Kektus23:
I had the same problem. Solved it perfectly by holding the phone 60 degrees on a flat surface with a little cloth on it and letting the phone face down drop on the surface. I dropped it face down because my front camera was affected. I had a screen protector and a case + cloth on the table so no damage what so ever. Just drop it. The dust will somehow move. I think this solution is better than digging into the lens and removing it. If the problem persists than take it to a service.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] james909:
I tried that first and it didn't work. It cost me 10 bucks to replace the lens. Shops have a hot plate so they can remove the back cover easily. With the new lens my camera has far superior image quality. I think it was more than just a bit of dust that was wrong with it. The lens was damaged. Another issue can be the inside of the glass on the back cover gets dirty. Just replacing or cleaning that when the back cover is off made my pictures clearer and stopped the camera over exposing every shot.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Isaac Lai:
Buddy, is it tape it on the camera phone or the whole phone?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] james909:
Do you mean tap? You could try trapping or shaking the phone to move dust to the side but that didn't work for me. I replaced the camera lens and you should clean the inside of the protective glass on the back cover too.

[AT&T LG G3] jlgarr86:
Here's what I got. ATT LG G3 running stock Marshmallow D85030p with what I presume is the newest security patch (June 2016)

At this point it's not on a carrier but it's locked by ATT. They kept my number as well.. A number that was mine from previous carriers.

Will I be able to root, install TWRP, and unlock this device to use on a prepaid carrier? Keep in mind this same phone has been flashed, rooted and ran recovery mods and ROMs before. Still in perfect working condition after receiving it's last stock OTA.
[AT&T LG G3] hyelton:
First of all what do you mean they kept your number? Did you cancel? Unpaid bill? That would be a deciding factor on how to go about things.

But no root cannot unlock your device

1. If you left AT&T in good standing AT&T will unlock the device for free. Even if you don't have any account.

2. If not then you can get it unlocked for a few dollars from some eBay sellers.

3. What prepaid carrier? If Any provider that runs on AT&Ts network you don't have to get it unlocked, it will work fine with Go Phone, Cricket , H2O and many others that run on AT&Ts network.

But a note if it's no longer on AT&T due to unpaid bill, or on bad terms remember the device may no longer work on any GSM carrier within the USA due to AT&T will blacklist it.
[AT&T LG G3] jlgarr86:
I understand root alone won't unlock it. With all that being said can I still root and flash a recovery method that are permanent? Does MM still not have a reliable root or recovery method?
[AT&T LG G3] hyelton:
You would need to downgrade to KitKat to do that. But remember once you downgrade you'll no longer be able to go back to any official firmware Past KitKat without an AT&T SIM card of some sort to ota update it.

Also remember if you get an unlock code you need to be running stock D850 firmware or else you won't be able to enter the unlock code.
[AT&T LG G3] jlgarr86:
Are there any unofficial MM or Lollipop ROMs that are worth looking into? I couldn't care less if it's official honestly. And that last bit you said, you mean if I wanted a phone unlocked I'd have to basically wipe my phone?
[AT&T LG G3] aybarrap1:
If you unlock before you leave behind stock then no you don't have to wipe. Once you install any custom ROM, your only option to unlock at that point is to revert back to stock, which means wiping.
[AT&T LG G3] jlgarr86:
Can I unlock it myself?
[AT&T LG G3] aybarrap1:
Yes you can, if you are on stock. You will need to get the unlock code from AT&T, be on stock firmware, and have an active SIM card from another carrier (I.e. T-Mobile or of it's MVNOs like MetroPCS). Once you have the unlock code, put in the SIM card, turn on the phone, and you will get the prompts for the code you got. Then you're done.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] aalexandrou:
Hello guys,

I was wondering if you could help an extreme newbie. :)

I just got my tilt a couple of days ago, and with the help of a friend i have installed Dutty's touchflow rom. My problem is the following:

I have a Sony Vaio laptop that connects to the internet wirelessly through my wireless router. My tilt also connects to the internet through the router. However if i connect the tilt to the vaio for an activesync or to charge, the wireless connection on the laptop crashes. It crashes even if the wifi on the tilt is turned off. It can only be restored if i disconnect the phone AND restart the computer.

Did anybody face a similar problem?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Nadavi:
It's an activesync issue.

When not connected to the PPC , Right click on AS icon in the PC.

Select Connections.

on the bottom you will see.

"Allow wireless connection......"

Mark the check box and your good to go :)

Nadavi
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] aalexandrou:
Hey buddy,

Thanks very much for responding. Tried it but unfortunately no joy. Its like my laptop loses the ability to connect to the router. I can see the connection but it just stays there, tries to get an ip, gets one and then crashes again...

Any other ideas?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] edi:
what nadavi said, helps when you have problems connectin at your phone not your laptop.

perhaps your problem hs to do woth your network-configuration. AS gives a bridged network-interface trough to your mobile phone, connected via AS.

eventually your real-network-interace-driver or something else has problems with thi network-bridging ... did you tried to install AS 4.2 instead of 4.5 or otherwise?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] easycure1974:
I bet you have a Intel 2195 or 2200BG wireless adapter in the notebook? There is a problem with some of the drivers for the adapter and Activesync that makes you wireless network disconnect when you plug your phone in for sync. I had the same problem on my former laptop, it went a way with a driver downgrade!!! if I remember correct

Another way of solving it was installing Trend Micro PC-illin 2007 Internet security. It installs some sort of driver that made it work, it sound crazy I know but it worked with that - I and more people that I know got it working that way but I dont´t like Trend Micros software :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] aalexandrou:
Hey easycure,

Thanks for this response. I took your advice and went the opposite direction. I do have a 2200BG adapter, but rather than downgrade, i upgraded the driver.

Worked like a charm. Thanks!!

@edi - thanks for your reccomendation too. In the end i did not need to go that way, but thanks all the same.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] easycure1974:
Yeah it might have been a driver update I did, it was two years ago I had that laptop so I cant remember exactly :) But I am happy that it fixed it for you - I do remember how frustrating it was :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] brandall:
I am having the very same issue. When I connect my Kaiser via activesync the wireless status information immediately appears on my laptop. The internet connection then stops working or only occasionally works. Took me an age to find a related thread! I'm about to update the drivers for the 2200BG adapter so I hope it works!

Cheers

Hi there,

Iam freshly new to this forum and tweaking android devices aswell. Yesterday with not to much trouble i installed linageOS on my Oneplus X and it made me verry happy.

So, i wanted to take a next step: I have an Android tablet Denver TAQ-10153 wich i want to update to Ubuntu Mobile.

So far so good. Until i noticed that once in developper mode, enabeling USB debugging there was no confirmation prompt on my tablet to autenticate. Then i dicited to not make a backup cause (the stock ROM is not important to me, tablet is a spare one) and go straight to the bootloader unlock.

When i reboot in fastboot mode i give the command: sudo fastboot oem unlock.

Then on the tablet is see a confirmation. I have to confirm with volume UP or decline with volume DOWN. But the tablet is unresponsive! it freezes completely. Even the powerbutton does not react anymore... Ubuntu terminal is unresponsive to.

The only thing i can do is put a paperclip in the reset hole to reboot again. Can someone tell me if iam overseeing anything?

Thanks for any input. Greetings, Erik.
