[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] Laurencito:
Unless they've changed things you need a developer rom to unlock. If you're on Global Stable download the latest Global Developer rom and use the Updater app to install it (three dots - choose package to install). It will wipe your phone.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] cheleby:
Hı again. I solved with below

)*Settings---> About phone---> MIUI Version (Tap on it to enable developer option), this option is available in MIUI 8.1 onwards.*After you've enabled developer option then head towards:

Settings---> Additional settings---> Developer option and bind your approved Mi account under Mi Unlock Status.

2. Log into the Mi account which has acquired unlocking permission on your device

3. Turn off your device, press the Power button and Volume - button at the same time to enter bootloader mode*

4. Log into the unlocking tool on PC with the same Mi account. Connect the device with the PC using USB cable

5. Press 'Unlock'. The unlocking process will complete in about 10 seconds

So many ZF2 have this problem until after the MM update as mine did too.

Disassemble your phone

Turn it on

Place a call

Press the part that I signalled in the picture I uploaded

With your other hand place it in front of the sensor

Then remove it

If it works then its just that the sensor is kind of loose (I guess cause of heat or whatever reason)

What I did to fix mine is cut a piece of electric tape and fold it (not too thick cause then the housing doesnt fully close)

Place it where the RED SQUARE is in the picture and assemble your phone again ;) PROFIT :highfive:

Hi Guys

I have an XT1528 FRP locked,

Security patch level 2016-04-01

Build 23.29-17.5-2

I tried almost all the methods available on internet but failed to clear the FRP. Recently i came across 4CDMA video which shows how to unlock the phone but its on a updated Patch level.

I just want to know is it possible to update my phone while its FRP lock! I notice If i let my phone battery drain! down to zero, and the trun in back ON with charger attached! when I enter the setup! i do get the update notification, but the problem is when I press the update button the phone reset into boot loader mode! then a txt appear "error" and the phone reboot back to normal! no updates!

If it possible i can manually update the phone while its FRP locked? And if someone have those zip file to share.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] jack9865:
I get tired of talking about this issue after updating my S7 to android Nougat.

My screen-off draining too much battery. I've deleted cache partition and reset app preferences but i don't see any changes.

I've checked with GSam and it shows that Comibined App CPU used battery a lot (about 80%).

I wonder if you could help me on this issue
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] MAX 404:
Hi mate

That information is not enough to solve the problem you need an app like BBS to find out who is the culprit....let it run for a few hours and check the logs....from there we can take action

i am also having the same problem. combined app cpu 80-90% also my download manager and mtp host, media manager are draining battery. when i disabled those, it helps but the i cant access Google play or anything on sd card.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] fdx3k1:
My buddy dropped his Tilt into a sink full of water and now, of course, it doesn't work. We got it to charge and now just comes up to a test screen with multiple colors and no rom version. We can't get it to show up in windows either....active sync says there is an issue with USB connection. Any ideas on how to get the rom reloaded? I told him to go back to AT&T, but he is worried that they won't fix it for him.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pizzaguy:
if its new you should try to replace it for full before the 30 days (i think) is up. if not i believe they will give him a discount on a new one.

he shouldn't be scared... they either fix it, or they dont. if he doesnt go then it doesnt even get the chance ;)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] PsyOpWarlord:
If you send it in for repair and they determine it was due to water damage then they charge your credit card (~$400.00) for a replacement.

You'd be better letting it dry more in hopes it starts working are look at purchasing a replacement elsewhere as you can get them cheaper then $400..

Just succesfully did weekly TWRP backup, but it unusually hidden. Before i did a lot of TWRP backups and copied it on my laptop, but now i cant do it. I can see backups on TWRP restore menu and TWRP file manager. Try to move folder with backups to emulated/0 (succesfully) but that folder is empty (from root explorer, TWRP file manager, MTP explore from laptop). So i delete it.

Facebook Messenger has recently added a feature like Instagram Story called Messenger Day, and with their latest update today, they added message reactions (screenshots attached).

I wanted to get rid of both these features, and revert to an earlier version (also attached), so I uninstalled it and reinstalled an older apk I found online.

Although, despite auto updates being disabled from the Play Store, it updates on its own. On digging through permissions, I found that the app has permission to request install packages.

If someone can patch the older version, or provide a link to a patched apk, I'd be grateful, as these added features are extremely annoying.

Thank you.

Did anyone figure that one out? Since the Nougat update, there is no more confirmation notification for Screenshots... I used to shared it just out of that one. Now I have tons of extra clicks to get into my gallery/quickpic/Screenshot folder and so on.

Also there is no screen flashing anymore, when taking a Screenshot, so sometimes it's hard to tell, what was taken, especially when navigating menus.

Hi @ all.

Is there a custom rom that ist 100% bugfree for the d802?

No stock, I mean cm or aosp.

I ve tested some cm 13 and 14 roms but in everyone I had problems with some apps or something.

At the moment I use a stock rom with dori kernel but my batterie is empty after a day.

What rom do you use with good batterie drain and 100% working?

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RelaxBuddy:
CrDroid 7.1.1 is very good in my opinion. Very good performance, nice UI and all that stuff.

Negative thing: A bit low sound but that can be changed in mixer.path file.

If you want a bug free rom choose some older roms like cm12.1 which got many updates. Or you look for Cloudy roms.

No rom is absoloutly bug free, but you can choose the best of it.

AOSP Extended is good too.

I don't understand why are we not able to produce the same post processing capabilities as oneplus? Are we missing something? If anyone can explain, I'll be really thankful!

Edit:

Ok! So, I did some digging and (anyone correct me If I'm wrong) here's the general flow of camera workings. Camera Application --> HAL(Hardware Application Layer) API --> Kernel --> Drivers --> Hardware Module. Now, "only Interface" for HAL is provided by Android, but each manufacturer has to implement this interface. So, Doesn't Oneplus provide us with the hal implementation? if, so, doesn't it include the post processing algorithms and methods already? I still am very confused.

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Puddi_Puddin:

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Iqbal Ansari:
This is the case for every custom rom and for every phone.

Maybe because the camera code is not open source and companies do not provide them to the dev community.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] AcmE85:
Was not the case for the OnePlus One, all Nexus devices and the Pixel.

Even though they all use closedsource-postprocessing, all it takes is to install the correct camera app and your are good to go on custom-roms.

It only depends on how the OEM implements it. OnePlus, as a so called "community friendly" company, decided to link their postprocessing not only to their camera app, but also to their own OxygenOS framework,

which is completely against the community.

This makes it harder to use it on custom-roms, as the framework needs to be modified specifically for each rom.

Why? They say the camera+postprocessing is supposed to be quicker this way.

Maybe they are right (for their own implementation), maybe they don't know better (probably, seeing other shenanigans they pull on OOS).
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] 0xelectron:
I get that they want protect their camera code to stay ahead in the game. But, I still don't understand why, we(community) are missing that, we are not able to produce the same quality as theirs. I think either its too hard, or, maybe we don't have required information about the camera module or something like that.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] 0xelectron:
Ok, it's difficult to port or implement their camera app in custom rom. But, why are we (community) not able to utilize the camera module as them? I mean they have great post processing, fast capture times, 60fps videos, etc. Why we are not able to implement those features? Are we missing something?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] AcmE85:
You quoted the reason, what more do you need?

LineageOS uses the exact same drivers and system files for the camera which can be found in OxygenOS.

It is missing the links to the postprocessing which have to be integrated into the framework.

There is no documentation for this by OnePlus, so this is a painful job.

We have a port for the camera app which somehow provides similar or at least nearly the same quality:

I don't have examples currently, but, I've noticed that the post processing of aosp is generally inferior compared to stock. Also, it doesn't have features such as 60fps video recording and proper EIS/OIS.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] 0xelectron:
I think I'm not explaining myself properly. What I'm trying to ask is that why the the quality/features of the the camera in custom roms a little inferior compared to stock OOS? I did some digging and found out that most of the capabilities are included in the hal api, and it's implementation, I think is provided by Oneplus. I can be totally wrong (correct me, if I'm).
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] defcomg:
Yes The flow is Camera App > Android Java Framework > Android Framework Native (libcamera_client/service) | libhardware loads the hal > hal camera.msm8***.so that uses libmmcamera_interface to hook up with the vendor libs via MCT liboemcamera/libmmcamera_mct.so > libmmcamera2_sensor_modules.so > libmmcamera_imx298.so > loads calibration via chromatix as well as eeprom

what weird about one plus they seem to have multiple chromatix blobs for diff camera modes my theory the problem with calibration lies here because it shouldn't matter weather the rom is aosp or stock, the camera calibration should be same unless the behavior is changed on purpose its the way its worked with qualcomm devices

thats why i asked for a comparison between aosp and stock so i could see if say the noise reduction was heavy in aosp then we would know to look at the chromatix cpp files ive mapped the chromatix cpp hex offsets on hex workshop so you can copy entire calibation blocks from for example clear shot cpp chromatix libs. hell you could copy noise calibration from any device with same chromatix version ie lg v20 / mi5.

if its overexposure/underexposure dropped fps etc the the chromatix 3a lib is what you need to be looking at

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamcharlesjay:
I need your best advise and/or suggestions. I've been a fan of custom ROMs and switching from Touchwiz Nougat (e.g. Nemesis Reborn) to Lineage OS to stock G900F firmware seems to be what I always do (am I the only one who does this?). I am undecided as to which software should I use as my daily driver. These ROMs are great and have their own pros and cons, but I've been annoyed of the fact that I keep switching ROMs which is somehow a waste of time and could even mess up my device in the future.

Footej Camera has a great user interface but the quality of the photo it produces is not that good; noise, grain, blur -- those stuff. Also, it has no real FAST auto-focus. Essentialy, it just focuses continuously, but it does not really detect objects whether they are near or far. If it ever focuses into something, it's not that accurate, it's blurred.

The stock S5 camera app is not perfect, it does not have manual settings, but among all the camera apps for the S5, it is the best. That's why I'm sticking with a Touchwiz-based ROM.

Lineage Based:

-Better performance

-Touchwiz lacks the customization options I want

-Touchwiz feels bloated to me even with the debloated Note 7 or A7 firmware

-Latest version of Android

-The features in Touchwiz aren't very practical (I set up the edge panels and then proceeded to never use them, AOD drains the battery)

-Can have better battery life depending on which ROM / Kernel are used

-I have been happy with the quality from Open Camera

-The Lineage stock apps (other than file manager) are awesome

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Necromances:
TouchWiz is one of the most modified and conceivably heavy Stock Roms of native android between companies, but its interface is very flashy and intuitive, and the system is very sophisticated, giving an impression of exclusivity.

On the other hand, Lineage OS gets closer to pure Android, has a simpler, lightweight and stable interface, greater compatibility with third-party apps and greater flexibility to system modifications.

Note: Samsung's "Camera" app for example is much higher compared to the same "Camera" app available in Lineage OS, after all, the original app was designed for the original rom itself. If you decide to install Lineage OS, you can choose to use the "Cameringo" app available in the "Play Store", it's the best non-native camera app I know, but it's paid.

Recommendation: Keep using the latest official Stock Rom version available for your device. Only install Custom Roms (like Lineage OS) from android versions that are not officially available for your device model.
