[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tomaskaos:
Hello.

Everything has gone terribly wrong for my phone and I desperately need your help.

I downloaded what was stated on needrom.com I made sure MTK vcom was installed properly and had the correct rom from needrom.com but I still got Brom Error: STATUS_BROM_CMD_SEND_DA_FAIL in SP flash when using MTK_AllInOne_da.bin.

I then tried DA_PL.bin and got another error. I tried to uncheck preloader and run Download through SP flash with DA_PL.bin which worked just fine. However now I'm stuck at the Bluboo logo screen and phone does not load into android.

I still get Brom Error: STATUS_BROM_CMD_SEND_DA_FAIL in SP Flash if I use MTK_AllInOne_da.bin but if I use DA_PL.bin now I get this error:

Chip mismatch!

Scatter:MT6757D

device: MT6757

Please help me, my phone is bricked until one of you help me. I'd be forever grateful!

Don`t worry about that, first this is the link of the last update https://www.google.com/url?q=https:...ds-cse&usg=AFQjCNFJKeEcDClPU2MnxLJefaQ19GmQpQ

for more success put your folder of SPFlash Tool near to folder of your unpacked rom (for short transmission of data) and Bluboo S1 has a few different way to enter to other mtk cause battery it`s not removable like other just disconnect it and connect again; in this case connect cable usb to your device, prepare all the files in SPFlashTool and click download and now while pressing both volume + and - connect cord to pc till SPFlashTool begin to recognize files (red letters) and release now, SPFlashTool continues process till 100% in yellow progressing line
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpmaroco:
Thanks!!! It works!!!!

Just be very careful. The USB C connector port in the phone is very loose... so make sure you can hold the cable tight other wiser it will lose the connection and brick your phone. For me, I had to remove the Plastic cover to be able to hold the power cable tight!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjrjdiogo:
Hi, could you help me please? I did your steps, but it is not working. Sp flash does all its job, shows the green sign, but the phone stills dead. What I noticed the usb connects with the phone, then it disconnects. I tried to install the drivers as the tutorials say like deactivating the driver signature enforcement, but nothig happens well.

Can I use it with F8331 ?
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] mkh93:
hello thank you for your amazing work :)

Videos don't work for me at all though. Apps like youtube - whatsapp - vlc crash

any progress on the video playback bug?
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Rudy:
I think you can, but you just have dualsim icon. Maybe I will try to build for F8331, but I can't test it.

Okay it's weird, because I test it first with clean install before uploading and it's fine, I'll see what I can do.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Rudy:
Okay, I have found a problem with video stuttering and I have a work around for video stuttering issue. Here is the explanation:

1. The problem is when playing video the power hal is not locking the rqbalance state for omxdecode, and when something trigger the rqbalance to lower performance mode (balance mode) the video start to stutter. The work around is to see if the current power mode is omxdecode or encode it will lock at that until it finished.

2. The problem for video recording is pretty much the same, the camera cannot acquire the performance lock so the video recording is stuttering.

I have attached the fix, just flash it in twrp. This is a temporary work around, because I think my code implementation is not that good, but I think Sony developers will have a better implementation.

For developer correct me if I'm wrong or you found someting else about this issue. Thank you.

edit: sorry, mess something up, for you who have downloaded it, please download again
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] tanto124:
Was wifi tethering & portable hotspot function tested? I've tried thay Sony AOSP Oreo build but the function crashes on that ROM.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Rudy:
I forgot about this, it works, you just need to rename your hotspot first.

How about USB OTG?

& HDR+ pixel camera?
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] rheckr:
Is there any way to enable slow motion and 4k recording modes or stock sony camera?
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Rudy:
I don't have usb otg, so can't check it. For HDR+ I am working on it, but still stuck.

Yes for slow motion and 4k, for stock sony camera no.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] rheckr:
Thanks for reply. How can i enable slow motion and 4k? This rom doesn't work for F8331 unfortunately - doesn't see any sim card.

Have you got "waiting for download" problem in Google Play Store?
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] xenonlife:
thanks for the rom, i have encountered some problems, like sometimes sim 1 or sim 2 will go offline , hotspot issue even after rename it it will restart the phone then works, camera pics size are very low, fingerprint sensor not working after the first install and cant remove it, battery life is not great ..

regards.
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] niaboc79:
Your fix is working great, I'm really happy to see that you're working hard to solve various issues.

If you could also tweak screen auto brightness a bit [emoji6]

[MENTION=5373187]Rudy[/MENTION] can you please explain how you got the camera offset fixed? That would be quite invaluable for custom rom development.

Also, is this build pure sonyxperiadev or did you modify some things. I don't see a link to your github in the op, hence the question :)
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Rudy:
You need to edit the media profiles, it's located in /system/vendor/etc, I think I have seen pull request with this change.

Nope, never got that problem.

Yap, hotspot is a little bit unstable. Do you clean install this rom?

Thanks for the feedback :good:

Is there a problem with auto brightness?

This issue happen because of the active array size and sensor size is not initialized in cropregionmapper because active array pixel size < sensor size. My fix is just to comment the return at cropregionmapper update when active array pixel size < sensor size condition happen , so that it will still initialize. It's a bad implementation but it works until the better work around is found.

void QCamera3CropRegionMapper::update(uint32_t active_array_w,
uint32_t active_array_h, uint32_t sensor_w,
uint32_t sensor_h)
{
// Sanity check
if (active_array_w == 0 || active_array_h == 0 ||
sensor_w == 0 || sensor_h == 0) {
LOGE("active_array size and sensor output size must be non zero");
return;
}
if (active_array_w < sensor_w || active_array_h < sensor_h) {
LOGE("invalid input: active_array [%d, %d], sensor size [%d, %d]",
active_array_w, active_array_h, sensor_w, sensor_h);
//return;
}
mSensorW = sensor_w;
mSensorH = sensor_h;
mActiveArrayW = active_array_w;
mActiveArrayH = active_array_h;

LOGH("active_array: %d x %d, sensor size %d x %d",
mActiveArrayW, mActiveArrayH, mSensorW, mSensorH);
}
[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] kholk:
Hey! I'm the one who developed the RQBalance-PowerHAL.

Yes you are absolutely right, the logic for what you explained is missing.... actually, the PowerHAL is not finished yet:

1. Some optimizations are still missing

2. Support for timed optimizations has been pushed, but this has to be used with the .. missing optimizations, mainly for camera.

If you have any ready code to address the issue, I will be happy to review it and eventually help you to make it better.

We're always open for contributions!

[Sony Xperia XZ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Rudy:
Right now my problem is my laptop storage space, it's almost full, you can use fastbooking or clshortfuse build, just flash the stutter fix, it includes the camera hal too.

No, it's not a flashable zip.

Hello

Currently I have US unlocked note 8 and using Telus which is one of Canadian carriers.

Unfortunately Volte is not available for US unlocked note 8 probably due to different CSC country code.

If I flash firmware for Canadian will I fully be able to use carrier specific features?

Is there any guide for this ?

Thanks for reading.

Hey! I have kind of a similar issue. i bought my s8 from Canada (service provider : bell). When i moved back to India, i needed region specific apps like SPay to work. Then i could manage to change CSC code from BMC (Bell) to XAC (Canada unlocked). However, i need to change it to INS. I downloaded Indian s8 firmware. But i am not sure if i can flash HOME_CSC using Odin as my S8 is a snapdragon variant(obviously) and I'm really worried if it would brick my device. Or if i would not receive OTA's (Because ONE UI is all I'm looking for) . Please guide me here.

[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] dandrumheller:
I don't have a US Cellular E4, but a couple years ago I was messing around with E2s, (Moto e 2015). Started with a Sprint version, which was bootloader unlockable but not SIM unlockable. Switched to USC version, which was also bootloader unlockable, and also is running on AT&T. There was a little trickery required to get it to see the AT&T SIM iirc, but it's been a while since I've messed what it / used it as a phone. Still sees regular use as a media player.

My guess is the USC one will be unlockable. I looked on USC site, can get it here, but it appears I have to sign up for a month of prepaid service too for another $35. If I can find one for $20 with no commitment I'll grab it and test.
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] hitokage004:
If it is an XT1768 and the bootloader is unlockable, you can flash the retail version firmware which supports AT&T out of the box.

[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] mn1968:
It's an attempt to remove/hide the N/A that is displayed when bootloader is unlocked/TWRP is installed. If it works, you'll know.

[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] Metconnect2000:
Sorry to hear that. But this would only possible an issue if you want to turn the device in for warranty purpose. Am I missing something? Also over at the Slickdeals, there are so many people debating on the band 12 for this phone. Do your carrier support that and if so can u test? Thanks
[Moto E4 Questions & Answers] mn1968:
The N/A on the boot screen is a cosmetic thing. Once you unlock the bootloader through Motorola, you agree that you are forfeiting your warranty.

As far as band 12, that's a T-Mobile thing. I use AT&T, so I can not test.

1. Is it bootloader unlocked?

2. Does it have the fingerprint reader as well?

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] badwiring:
Hi,

I searched before asking, but came up empty. I'm attempting to install TWRP. Flashing it with Odin works just fine. Where I'm hung up is the next step, booting immediately into recovery.

The instructions I've seen are to hold down POWER, HOME, VOLUME-DOWN. When the screen goes blank, release VOLUME-DOWN and press VOLUME-UP while continuing to hold the other buttons.

With each try it just reboots the tablet normally. Is there some finer point to this that I'm missing?

Thanks

Found my own answer. I was releasing POWER-DOWN and pressing POWER-UP by sliding my finger from one to the other. Apparently there needs to be a momentary delay, releasing one then pressing the other.
