[T-Mobile LG G4] AlaskaLinuxUser:
As with anything, everything seems to cost money these days. That said, after reviewing the costs my projects, and seeking some advice from family and friends, I realized that it would a good idea to accept donations for upkeep and expenses brought on by my work.

As this is a change from my previous comments on donations, a wise friend thought a note of explaination would be appropriate. Don't worry, I do not plan to bring it up again. :o

Donations would help offset the costs for me to buy parts, or phones, or pay for the online storage I have, and/or other things such as more internet "buckets" of limited data on my ISP's plan, website maintenance, etc.

Currently, asside from a great gift of a server computer, I have been supporting my projects by selling off gifted older phones, a laptop, and a few other tid-bits here and there. As you can see, I have cut back on my involvement, partly for time reasons, but also for finance reasons - e.g., only updating roms every other month to save on bandwidth, downloads, etc.

While I do not expect anyone to donate their hard earned money towards these projects, I would be open to accepting donations that any users are willing or able to give. Please do not feel obligated in any way, shape, or form, to donate. I have put up a donation link in my XDA profile ( https://www.paypal.me/TheAlaskaLinuxUser/3 ) with a small suggested one time gift amount. You are welcome to change that to any (smaller) amount you wish, or not to donate at all. I just don't want people feeling that a larger or continuous donations were necessary, however, you are allowed to do as you please.

Thank you to all of those who have responded with kind comments, feedback, and thanks button slaps. Those are really appreciated because it lets me know how you feel about my work. I look forward to continued development, and I hope no one is offended by my post, as it was not intended to be.

[T-Mobile LG G4] ElfinJNoty:
Your efforts on the kernel for our G4's has been much appreciated. As you'll notice, out forum is not receiving much if any attention from capable devs. And the non-tmo g4 threads are not much better right now.

I am a board member with Team Bliss, makers of Bliss OS and Bliss-x86 for PC's, laptops, tablets, maker boards(anything with x86 chipset). My duties fall more on business related matters, but I want to have a build of our 7.1.x ROM running on my G4 which is my DD. And I have not compiled a ROM from source for a few years(was a complete guide via CM at the time).

I am in the process of setting up a build environment, and wonder if you might be of some assistance to me as I take on this project of my own. All source for a caf based build is available via https://github.com/BlissRoms

And website: https://blissroms.github.io/

My title is listed on the website. We are also interested in devs who want to join our team. Lots of big stuff right now in preparation for O :)

Please feel free to reach out to me if this is something you and I could work together to accomplish for the H811 and give a fresh, final Nougat flavor of Bliss for our G4's

Thanks again for your efforts ?
[T-Mobile LG G4] AlaskaLinuxUser:
Thanks, I'll have to think that over.
[T-Mobile LG G4] ElfinJNoty:
I am currently syncing source of BlissRoms 7.1-caf and have my teammates behind me for support to assist with building.

When the time comes, may I have permissions to use your kernel for a potential build?
[T-Mobile LG G4] AlaskaLinuxUser:
Absolutely! I am glad it will be put to good use. You are welcome to use any of my kernel work.
[T-Mobile LG G4] AlaskaLinuxUser:
Hey all, just a heads up, I have a WORK IN PROGRESS ALPHA of OmniRom in development. It says H815, but will flash on the H811 as well. Still a WIP, but you are welcome to check it out. If you do comment on that forum, be sure to mention that you are using an H811. I plan on making a H811 specific thread once I have some bugs worked out.

Sorry, I was on vacation, out of cell network.

Great question! Yes, in kernel adiutor, you can unchecked the big cores and select to perform on boot. Works great.

I can do that but if I install another rom with no modified boot image it wont start just keep rebooting.

Does this kernel support fast charging with USB 2.0? Also, could it work on another AOSP Nougat rom?
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] maumarti2k:
Dear community, I have a Moto Z XT1650-03 with dual SIM purchased at the Mexico Best Buy. I am starting to play with flashing and would really appreciate some expert advice.

I have been searching for stock rom firmware online and found several versions, even for XT1650-03, but I haven't found any version for dual SIM. That leads me to think that the same firmware version probably works for both single and dual SIM. Nevertheless, I remember that for Samsung, flashing the dual sim firmware version on a single SIM phone could generate issues with the modem driver and render your phone useless until a new modem driver is available for your specific version. I am a little reluctant to brick my phone, so I wanted to ask if anyone with more experience would be able to provide a little insight on how this works for the Moto Z, or even for Motorola on a more general basis.

My Phone information:

[General Questions and Answers] rajeshca911:
Dear Xda,

Im An Oppo user my Device details As follows.

Device: Oppo F3 ( CPH1609)

MTK6750T

4Gb Ram, 64 GB ROM

Running on ColorOs 3.0.0i (Based on Android 6.0)

There are lot of problems / bugs in Os which Oppo Even failed to rectify.

When ever i Mailed them they simply quoting their common quotes

So i decided to Root my phone to develop ( no i cant do it lone :rolleyes: )

During search of Root i found few obstacles

1) Oppo made decision to remove fastboot option fron their device

Ref: https://xdaforums.com/r7-plus/help/decision-oppo-bootloader-fastboot-t3348114

2) MTK droid Tools not fully supporting the chipset

Ref:https://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4178413&thumb=1&d=1497202499

3) One click Root is not working ( king, farma etc)

4) cannot obtain boot & Recovery imgs to development

5) i thought stock firmware flash file may have useful but there are 2 types of probles

(A) flashablezip version : it has boot. Img but no recovery.img included. Also it is With. Ozip Not with. Zip extension

(B) PC version : it is like encrypted file. With. Ofp extension And With some other type file. And it is not flashing through SP-FLASH TOOLS. The flashing tool is different.

Ref https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qw4HIQER0mg

Guys thease are my problems. Coz of those i failed to root my device.

My only Hope is Xda, you people know better than me ( probably Best) . Please analyze and and give suggestions.

Thanks In Advance
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] ianonfire:
Is the price difference of £30 worth the difference or are the majority of people buying the 3gb version? I take it the ROMs will be exactly the same?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Sachin:
Yep. Roms are compatible with all the 3 variants (ie;2/3/4gb RAM], if I were you I'd rather pic 4gb variant as it has 64gig of ROM. :P
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] endrancer:
i'd decide on price... the 3 gb version is good enough, so if you have a good deal on that, get it.

if 4gb is a good deal, get that...

here the price difference is about 40-50 € so 3gb is a much better deal at the moment.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] RohanM:
I picked up the 3 GB variant as the difference was of Rs. 2000 [31 $]

3 GB is enough for my usage with 32 GB storage. :)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] jbanti:
i got 64/4 and im fully satisfied with my purchase.

more storage more ram but i think 3Gb Ram is enough. ? i need more storage space so i got 64gb variant.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] jeremiahjm:
I took my oneplus 3 for a brief swim. I blame new fatherhood. It inhaled a lot of water. I turned it off, dried it, and put it in rice for a couple days. Soon after turning it off, it started getting hot. :( I'm guessing something important is dead. I'd like to go through the process of fixing it. I have to replace the rear camera which stopped focusing anyway.

Here's where I'm at now.

1. The battery charges.

2. The screen works.

3. It boots up in developer mode or whatever the volume button down + power is.

4. Phone won't boot into OS.

My plan from this point forward:

1. Open up phone and inspect.

2. Clean components.

3. Test with pc and go through unbrick guide.

4. Order and replace broken parts.

Questions:

1. Is there a diagnostic I could run to figure out what is broken?

2. If I'm replacing something major, would it be fairly straightforward and worth the effort to replace the internal components with 3T components?

3. Anything else I should keep in mind or any thoughts on what is likely wrong with the phone?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] MarcTremonti:
I guess by letting it dry and then turn it on again you killed something in your phone.

Water has always a bit salt and minerals in it and once the phone these minerals are still left and can cause various short circuits.

I know its too late now, but what you should have done is turning the phone down after the accident and then wash it out with destilled water to wash out the minerals and after that let it dry.

For example blackboxes of crashed planes are left in a box with salty water and then it gets replaced more and more with destilled water.

I'd recommend you to visit a phone fixing shop. Finding the problem by yourself will be pretty tricky without the right tools.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] jeremiahjm:
Thanks. That makes sense. My suspicion is still that the damage occurred prior to turning the phone off, as the off phone kept heating up as if something was causing a massive battery drain. This will be helpful next time. Ugh, next time. There better not be a next time.

As I've yet to start taking the phone apart, I'm still pretty determined to troubleshoot it myself as much as I can. So any other suggestions people have would be appreciated. I've been quite unimpressed with the techs around here...

Hey, I am switching from LineageOS because it is laggy and I would like to try CosmicOS or Ressurection Remix, but dont know what to choose, that is why you are there for me... Vote pls
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] itisiryan:
I would say RR. But it's better to try them both or even all the ROMs. Smoothness experience will vary from user to user.
[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] MayB4ck:
For me Ressurection Remix does everything right and the battery life is good, but I think it is down to personal preference

Help Rom Flash Issue

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I had an issue with my GPS, trying to turn static navigation off. I thought I screwed it up so I reflashed the original O2 rom, worked no problem.

However after trying out the posted ROM's on here I like the Vanilla which is what I installed (then was messing with gps). Went back to original with the hope that the gps was fixed.

I then just tried to put the Vanilla 3.01 ROM back on and it fails out for corrupted ROM file ERROR 270.

To let everyone know, I installed, and unistalled both the full, lite, and vanilla several times the other day while deciding which I liked.

WHat could the problem be about I can't get any of these ROM's to flash now all after 3% the screen goes dim, and it says corrupted file.

ANY SUGGESTIONS?????????????
[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] sabre3487:
Switched computers ......

I found a thread after some serious searching about switching computers when you get an error 270 image corrupt...

Then after flashing original rom, uspl seems to have worked..

will update if thread if I get vanilla rom back on.

I have the Vanilla 3.01 ROM installed!!! I think it's great.

There are two things that I want to change, and need help.

One I actually did not mind the origianl phone dialer that came with the WM6 O2 ROM. Is there a way to just port that part back in ???

The function I liked was when I typed numbers it would choose contacts based on number. The Vanilla version choses contacts based on the letters.. Can I change??

Also is there another way to make the keyboard bigger, after selecting big font, I mean just a tad bit larger??

Thanks,

The thread discussing about the camera distortion issue seems intentionally deleted.

If they are trying to hush up the issue, it's a really bad move!
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Alex2483:
It was intentionally deleted because Sony already explained the reason of the distortion issue, if that forum was't deleted people would have thought that the distortion issue is an issue.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Sensination:
Yeah but it is an issue! Sony's explanation is pathetic because the issue should be minimized with the software. The problem we all have is not with the distortion which is normal with wide angle lens but with lack of software fix included in the camera.

Samsung fixed the exact same issue in S7 with an update so it's right for us to expect the same from Sony.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Mangtas_666:
Yes just be patient they will update it sooner.. If not well sell our xzp and buy note 8 or pixel 2..[emoji1]
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Alex2483:
The lens of Sony are different, you will have the same issue with XZ and other Sony phones with the same lens, I never heard distorion issue on S7, but if it had the same issue it wasn't lens' fault
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Sensination:
I see you have absolutely no idea about photography and lack basic understanding of simple physics...

The issue is 100% due to wide angle lens and is present to some extent in EVERY camera that has ever been manufactured since the invention of photography. It will be more or less visible depending on the focal length of the lens but it is in EVERY camera. The only way to remedy this is by intelligent software which is all we want from Sony. If Samsung did it, Sony should as well. Is this really so much to ask? Check this link from Reddit...
