As the title suggests, I'm still on the N2G47E image. Being on VZW, I want to update to the N2G47K OTA to see if it fixes my SMS issues.

1. If I sideload the OTA, will it wipe my data?

2. I am unlocked and rooted. I don't remember all of the modifications I've made to /system, will this be an issue with the OTA?

Edit: I've updated to N2G47K successfully. (I;ve been out of the loop for a bit)

under the developer setting, theres option to allow video output 720p. is it possible to play video?

and what is the meaning of to start headunit server?
[Android Auto General] ka24e:
Nah, this is just the output resolution. For example, if you have a 720p LCD in your car and it's not rendering in 720P, you can force 720p. This may work on lower resolution screens to display more information as well, but it may be a bit stretched. For example, trying to display Google Maps at 720p on a 800x480 LCD.

Hi all,

Just wanted to ask does anyone have play store certified, on any custom ROM?

So I'm not asking about passing safety net

Go to play store > settings > at the bottom

For me it's certificated. Flash Magisk, check if Magisk hide is turned on. If not, turn on. Then clear data of Play Store app. After these it has to be certificated.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] valvze:
Hi amigos,

Recently while in school, my phone randomly glitched out so I rebooted it. When rebooting, the phone would read "Android is starting". Then I tried wiping caches in TWRP but that didn't fix the problem. After I got home, I decided to dirty flash my ROM again (HalogenOS). Same problem. Then I tried a clean flash, and that resulted in the same problem. So then, after trying to restore multiple backups and flash many ROM's I got it to boot onto AOSP Oreo. So the phone is working fine, however, does anyone have a good reason behind this? I even wiped the entire phone but that didn't do anything either. I think it happens whenever I try a Lineage based ROM because Omni also booted fine. Any ideas? I want those sweet blobs in XOS :(
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Ak:
Isn't "Android is starting" a normal process? Or was it just stuck there?

Which twrp you're using?

Did you flashed just the ROM or also the gapps?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] valvze:
It's stuck there. I'm using 3.1TWRP an yes I used gapps.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Ak:
Try flashing without gapps.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Maybe you could try fastbooting cyanogen os and then try to flash twrp and lineage rooms again.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] valvze:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Emerald Core:
It has a good year for Samsung since the launch of S8 and I owned that device for a good three months with consistent monthly updates regarding security and but fixes. Although we have received a major update for Note 8 that contains August patch but we are one week before October and there seems to be a delay for September update. Or are they going for Oreo with October updates as a "double O" package?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] douger1957:
I haven't seen boo about the Note 8 getting Oreo other than it's in the works. I don't think we'll see it until after the new Pixel launches, and probably well after.

Since my first update was labeled "T-Mobile," it's likely the carriers are holding up the updates, as usual. Hopefully, Project Treble will be fully baked into Oreo so security updates won't be an issue anymore.

I've been trying all day to unlock a T-mobile galaxy s4. T-mobile refuses to do it; and I would almost rather throw the phone away than sell it (I fix screens, so I buy em broke then resell them), because that might give T-mobile another customer.

I called them up and they say they do that to "protect customers". I didn't need to be rude to the representatives, but how is THAT supposed to work? Isn't a phone reported stolen blocked on a all carriers!?

So, what I've tried so far:

1.) Dialing: *#0011# - hitting back button - entering 1.. doesn't work. Gives me a screen something along the lines of "Menu does not Exist.. current command 11".

2.) *#197328640# takes me to a debug screen;

3.) "Service mode for Samsung" says: "Your device does not Support this Samsung chipset.

4.) I tried literally dozens of other *#xxx# codes. (So if technicians were supposed to have access to this level control before things got out what do they do now?)

5. Several "secret code revealer" apps.

6.) Looked into Dr. Phone claims to support rooting Samsung; I have a supported OS but it won't install and their help does not even claim to be fast (nor does it seem to get a lot of respect.)

7.) I *COULD* try rooting.

a.) Towelroot's webpage has a bad security certificate.

b.) The other root program I looked into: my antivirus didn't like it. (Among other problems I found a few minutes later.)

c.) There are 3 dozen websites for every root method available; these *HAVE* to be installing spyware or why else would so many people be bothering to maintain a website for other peoples root!? (Mabye some make money off the advertising lol.)

It seems like the only SAFE way that I have to remove root is learn Java, browse the CVS or other root source code and implement it myself! ...Then even at that, if they guy who *created* android screwed up enough to let me root it *I* obviously can't certify anything as safe.

I'd really love to protect my customers WITHOUT rewarding T-mobile for it's bad behavoir by putting on of their locked phones back on the market.

Thanks!

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] mondohow:
1035? No, I got that via OTA as part of the beta program. 1035, however, has broken vp9 playback and their support doesn't seem to care at all. The rep I dealt with was dismissive and basically told me to wait for the next update but refused to say when that was gonna be.

7.0 NBD92G 1028 was the last good OTA I received on this box. I usually write down my current build number before I update just in case because this broken YouTube/Netflix issue happened in the beta program as well.

Hi, for those already on the older Nougat Beta (build 924 or something): you will notice that your remote won't work in recovery, so you're unable to choose the *.zip file on your USB-Stick to update unless you have a USB-Hub and plug in a keyboard in addition to the USB-Stick.

I have neither at home, but found a solution (thanks to the update guides for the other Miboxes):

1. create a file called "xiaomi_update" (yes, without any fileending) an write into it "--update_package=/udisk/update.zip".

2. save it to your USB-Stick and rename your update_1028.zip file to update.zip.

3. Plug it into your MiBox, boot to recovery with the known trick (press back and OK simultaneously while plugging in power) and the update starts all by itself.

Hope you find this useful. :)

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] sulaimanob:
I'm having the same issue here, have anyone come up with a solution?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] bigtalker:
Netflix 4K has worked fine from day 1 of introduction, with the following provisos:

You must have proper level of Netflix subscription

You must have sufficient bandwidth across your network

You must have working, enabled DRM security across ALL devices, specifically Widevine level 1 and HDCP 2.2.

The proper implementation of DRM can be tested using DRMINFO apk running on the MiBox. Test all possible HDMI ports, powering down the TV between test iterations, then try different HDMI cables as well.

This is the number one issue as Netflix is very insistent that valid, continuous DRM security is implemented in each and every device downstream of the Xiaomi box.

Sorry once again if i sound rude but really? Netflix hdr??

How about Kodi automatic refresh rate switching?, Kodi HDR media playback? Actually working CEC?..this is what we need I think.

YOU SHOULD NOT CARE ABOUT HDR NETFLIX.

USE THE BUILT-IN APP ON YOUR TV.

There's a lot of TV's if not most that have 4K Netflix but not 4K HDR Netflix. Only 2016 and newer Samsung and LG TV's for sure have the HDR Netflix app built in. So having access to that is a huge deal considering Netflix probably has the largest amount of HDR content available at the moment.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] mikipiki118:
No, Its not true :)

Could you please tell me the brands of 4k HDR tvs that doesnt have HDR netflix app? Please, i cant wait to hear...

Just to explain you something in case you didnt know, TO WATCH HDR NETFLIX YOU MUST HAVE HDR 4K TV :) ok? No 4k tv, has to be HDR 4k tv...ok?

Do you understand now? So the point is you dont need HDR netflix on mibox because you have HDR netflix app BUILT-IN on your TV (if you have HDR 4K TV).

From the netflix page :

Netflix is available in HDR on supported TVs from:

LG

Roku TV

Hisense

Vizio

Panasonic

Philips

Roku TV

Samsung

Sharp

Sony

Toshiba

But please tell me the BRAND and MODEL of your 4K HDR tv that doesnt have HDR Netflix app, and I will send you my Nvidia shield with hdr netflix right now so you can watch it in HDR, you poor soul (minus the shipping, its on you)

And yes, for HDR you have to subscribe to a 4screen plan, maybe thats why you cant see hdr on your tv set

Cheers, eagerly waiting for your reply

Drank a pill..
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] nate595:
Sharp N8000u. Now I will say high end TV's that are advertised specifically for their HDR capabilities usually will have HDR Netflix. However most low to midrange TV's from those manufactures listed above outside of LG and Samsung don't have it even though virtually all 4K TV's 2016 and later support HDR playback for whatever minimal gain it might have on lower end sets. Also thanks to this beta HDR Netflix works on the Mibox now but thanks anyways.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] mikipiki118:
Everything you said is false and not true, you dont really understand this technology, I recommend you to google about HDR and educate yourself before commenting.

Sharp N8000u IS NOT HDR tv thus will never play HDR netflix :eek: xD

4k TVs CANT PLAY HDR, stop confusing yourself and the other people online. Only HDR tvs can play HDR.

4k TVs and 4k HDR TVs are 2 different things!!!

You need HDR TV, are you really stupid or only enjoy trolling?

So once again, if people have HDR tv they should use BUILT-IN netflix hdr app and give 0 Fs about Mibox netflix hdr app.

P.s. I would give everything to see picture of your Sharp N8000u on the new Mibox beta with HDR netflix showin this HDR icon next to movies.

We all know the difference between 4k TVs and 4k HDR TVs.

We all know that one can use the built-in Netflix Apps for HDR playback.

Nobody asked for your opinion.

I kindly asked whether the new build supports Netflix HDR.

I own a 4k HDR LG TV and I do not want to use the built-in Netflix App.

I don’t have to explain to you why I prefer to use my MiBox to watch Netflix.
