[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] lekiaM:
If you are getting the same error again and qgain, i know its frustrating! And i also know to find the culprit for the error, is very hard. So i suggest start from scratch? I mean wipe all and format data, reboot to recovery, flash the latest "stable" and "improved" blu spark TWRP as recovery. Reboot recovery again, transfer the ROM, Gapps package and root method from PC to Internal and flash, reboot.

I know it's not an solution you'll be waiting for, but i ended up the same way too (as you can see earlier posts) . But since Hitman478 explained all to me, i have no issues anymore! which I'm truly great full for.

Have a nice Sunday (after all) :highfive:
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Hitman478™:
There's a corrupted file.. if you can't find it out and delete/uninstall that app, you never will be able to backup.. your solution is to clean install again your room (but first look at log and watch where TWRP gives you the error)
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] larpoux:
I could resolve my nandroid /data backup error on my EMUI 8.0 Mediapad M5 device with those following steps:

1 - Use a correct TWRP implementation

TWRP need to access the uncyphered partition /data.

There no possibility to backup it, if TWRP does not implement deciphering user data partition.

2 - Remove all users except user 0 (the administrator)

You can verify that there is no unwanted users, looking at directory /data/user : the only subdirectory should be "0".

To remove the others users :

Remove the PrivateSpace if you have one (Settings > Security & Privacy > PrivateSpace, and tap on the garbage can).

Remove all the secondary users (Settings > Users & accounts > users, and tap on each users to delete them). Keep just the main administrator user.

On EMUI, remove all twins applications (Settings > Apps & Notifications > App Twin, and disable all twin apps).

On OxygenOS, remove all parallel apps (Settings > Apps > Parallel Apps, and disable all parallel apps).

On MIUI, remove all dual apps (Settings > Dual Apps, and disable all dual apps)

On others devices ... you must find all parameters that create those unwanted users.

If you are not able to get the correct settings to suppress those users, in last resort you can try this command : "pm remove-user user-no. (For example "pm remove-user 999").

3 - Do not forget to protect your backups by a password

This would be stupid to cipher your /data partition and keep backups of this partition unprotected.

These steps fixed the nandroid backup problem for /data partition on my Huawei Mediapad M5 device.

I post on this forum because I hope that this will be helpful for others devices owners.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Regina Rainbow:
Thanks! That was the clue I needed! I had installed the app Shelter lately which created a work profile (= second user). Uninstalling Shelter and deleting the work profile solved the problem.

Coming from an LG G5, I see no charging indicator light when I charge the phone. The phone does charge, but there is no red or green light visible. Nothing at all. Whether the phone is on or off and charging, I don't see a phone charging indicator light. Is this normal or is the phone charging indicator light on my unit broken?

Since official Xposed for Nougat is finally available https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3034811, here some instructions for Tablet Z4:

I successfully installed it on SGP771 (32.3.A.2.33, Android 7.0). Installation the standard way, flash zip (xposed-v88-sdk24-arm64.zip in my case), reboot, install XposedInstaller_3.1.2.apk).

The first boot takes really long (5 Minutes?)! It spends a lot of time at the white-curved-lines boot animation. Just be patient!

No bootloops, crashes, error messages. Framework is active. :)

The only problems I experience is that some modules don't seem to work. (Play Store Changelog, Secure Settings, You Tube Background Playback). They are enabled, no warnings. They just don't do anything. Others are working (AndroPlusMod).

Secure Settings is complaining that it cannot detect root access. But it's present (SuperSu 2.82) and working in other apps.

Anyone having similar experience or solutions?

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] SuhasTheBest:
I was watching some movies last night and I noticed that the blacks would sometimes get way too black making stuff almost impossible to see. The grey areas seemed kinda pixelated and it looked odd and didn't seem right. Ill try to post pics later. I was watching in 0% brightness and turning up the brightness helped a little bit.

I looked it up and found Digital trends stated the very same thing in their review although it seemed only one of their devices had this. So I'm wondering if it's just a defect with my device possibly. Other than that my V30 has been absolutely amazing, I'm loving it.

Anyone else noticing this on their V30?

Here's the Digital Trends article:

https://www.digitaltrends.com/cell-phone-reviews/lg-v30-review/
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] 20degrees:
Watch it. There's a few threads around here about this. A bridge dweller will reply to this staying that it's pretty much caused by the way you use your phone.

There's defects with these on some of the screens that people are encountering. Do you have any pics?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] psawjack:
I'm thinking about picking one of these up. So am I to understand that it would look poor quality to watch a movie with the brightness set at 0%?

Geez louise ! You can't go by that !

Have you ripped the movie ? Is it Blu-Ray rip ? Constant or variable bitrate ? High Resolution ? Framerate ? 1080P 720i ? Is it on low class sd card ? Are you using standard stock player that has no codecs installed ? See there is million other things that can be wrong . Not your phone ! There is amateurs out there who rip movies and they don't know what they are doing and then you blame your new phone . Naaaah . Your phone is ok .

Sounds like the OLED display uniformity defect people have been experiencing. Some users notice it below 30%, others not until much lower brightness. Doesn't seem to affect all phones but it does affect a fair number of them. Not sure why the person above is acting as if this isn't a known problem.

I have to agree, I was streaming recorded TV from my DVR, it isn't the best quality, it had the greatest amount of artifacts and problems I described. On higher quality video is was definitely less noticeable. Neflix HDR is doing something too, the blacks kinda turn orange. There are a lot of factors i need to take a look at.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ryanpm40:
Agreed. I mean, my V30 is arriving at UPS today and I'm excited, but I've been burned by LG on my last two phones so I will send it back immediately if I notice any issues and will be buying from Samsung with their $300 trade in deal. I can't deal with more LG defects and having them replaced multiple times haha I'm just done with exchanges of defective phones.

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] rebroadway:
I had the Nexus 6P (with Android 7) and plugging it into the USB worked with my 2011 Camaro (it is not Android Auto, the Head-unit basically will see the phone as a USB Storage device, mount it, index the files, and I could then use my car's controls to search, change tracks, etc).

I broke my phone and turn it in on warranty, and end up getting the Pixel XL as replacement, and upgrade it to Android 8.

Now when I plug it into my car, I get a "No supported media found" message on my car's display. I have tried with and without USB Debugging, going into the the developer options and changing the "Select USB Configuration" to MTP, Audio Source and still the same. I would also have this issue with Samsung phones, and could never get them to work.

I am not sure if this is an issue with Pixel's, or with the Android 8 update, since my Nexus 6P with Android 7 worked fine

There are ways to mod the looks of your phone without having to root Andromeda can be set up with a couple of ADB commands, this then gives you access to Substratum.

Now I have issues installing the zip. I tried to use TWRP to flash the lastest zip (Pixel, 7.1.2, sdk25, arm64), but it kept saying "/system could not be mounted". Here's the log:

Same problem; Pixel Xl running PureNexus and Magisk 13.3
[Xposed General] mistermojorizin:
pixel xl here. xposed could not be installed from recovery, but could be installed from the xposed installer app. I could also be uninstalled from that app. However, uninstall exposed zip could not be flashed, for the same problem - can't mount system. I'm not comfy messing with xposed until uninstall zip works. That uninstall zip has saved me so many times.
[Xposed General] KuroCanvas:
I just figured out the way to install Xposed v88 on a Pixel XL phone.

If you have used Xposed on other diveces before, you probably know that the Xposed framework you are about to install is a .zip package , and you may want to use a 3rd-party recovery (like TWRP) to install it, just like you always did with other android phones.

However, the recovery method does not work with Pixel, at least at this time.

This is caused by Pixel's totally different partition plan, known as "A/B system partition"(which means there are two /system partitions). It seems that TWRP can't perfectly support Pixel's A/B partitions. (But why TWRP can install Super SU flawlessly into a Pixel? Anyone have an idea?)

An alternative way is using Flashfire to install .zip packages, and Flashfire supports Pixel's partitions.

So here's my attempt to install Xposed with Flashfire:

root the Pixel by fastboot boot twrp.img and install SuperSU.

reboot and install Flashfire.

copy xposed-v88-sdk25-arm64.zip to Pixel's internal memory. (xposed-v88 could not be the latest version when you are reading this)

run Flashfire, select the zip package, choose Slot A, check Auto-mount and Mount /system read/write

hit FLASH.

after reboot, install Xposed Installer (apk) and you will see Xposed is ready for use.

note: I reset my Pixel by flashing factory image (fash-all.bat) and I'm not using Magisk.
[Xposed General] mistermojorizin:
What is the advantage of using flashfire over the method I described above?

my method is:

1) open xposed app

2) hit install

However, if xposed jacks up your phone (not saying that xposed will do that, but I know messing about with it I've had situations with certain modules that wouldn't let me boot into system), you can't flash the "uninstall" zip with flashfire.

That's what's stopping me right now. I know I can always go back to a TWRP nandroid, but sometimes I don't have a zero day backup on hand. I liked the safetynet (pun intended) of always being able to flash uninstall xposed zip from recovery.
[Xposed General] shanehou:
Thanks you guys, I've reported it on Github to rovo, and installed Xposed inside its app. Thanks God it worked.

[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] raghuram8892:
Hello, I have been using HTC U 11 for a couple of days now. I find it really odd that the temperature is kinda little high at all times. here are my observations.

before I start im from chennai and the avg temperate here ranges from 28 to 35 on a normal day.

I first noticed heating when I was recording a FHD video at 60FPS for more than 3 min. The camera stopped taking video due to overheat. The phone was uncomfortably hot. But then I realized maybe its because I was riding as pillion in motorcycle while recording and it was 1 PM in the afternoon with Sun burning your eyes. So I thought maybe its because of that.

then taking any 4K, hyperlapse videos increased temperature. So i used CPU temp to analyze the temperature(with back case removed) I was in a AC Hall with room temperature of around 26 degrees C and the starting temperature was 36 degrees C in my phone. Then,

I took two 4K videos 1 and 2 minutes each and the temperature went from 36 to 47 and once the video is finished it settled back to 41. the CPU was at 1900 MHz while recording and throttled down to 300Mhz once its done.

then I ran 3D Mark tests. it gave me a score of some 2.7K with an average FPS of 25 but while performing this test my CPU went to a whooping 53 degrees C and settled back to 45 degree C once its done. Normal Phone operations like FB, reddit, discord etc gives me around 36 37C which still, i feel is too much and despite being a glass body I have never felt any form of chillness even after hours of being in AC room it was always pleasantly warm when normal use to uncomfortably warm on high use.

Do you guys think that I have a defective device? I still have 4 days on free return policy with the seller. should I replace my phone?
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] Alpert3:
I'd say it's normal for a phone.

Video recording and running heavy games is the most difficult tasks for smartphone (maybe now it's VR & AR), I'm not surprised at all if the temperature raises at 42 degrees or more.

Benchmark apps like 3D marks take full power of computing capability, no wonder why it gets even hotter.

Smartphone is a smartphone, not a PC nor a GoPro.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] raghuram8892:
yeah! i thought that too. actually i think for a processor like 835 normal temperature is 35 36. I do understand that Optical Image stabilization and image stitching are quite heavy tasks . maybe im paranoid. I just want to make sure it doesnt damage the phone in the long run. Also its kind of a pride thing :P . you see from where I am, There are tonnes of pun and memes about cheap MI phones and heating. So people around here were like you have a $700 phone(thanks to all the customs and import duties) and it heats like a $50 MI phone?. *smh*.

Do you think installing custom rom can increase performance? I really want to get rid of that HTC companion, news republic, facebook and messenger. FB sucks. it takes up almost 300MB of RAM at all times.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] Alpert3:
It would not damage your phone but as we speak of the "long-term", something you probably should know:

If you keep using your phone for heavy tasks and temperature of the device is always at 38°C or higher, it could decrease the battery life. Higher temperature would cause the loss of battery capacity. You probably should be careful.

As for MI phones, 50$ is hard to get one. And heating meme is because of Qualcomm S810 back in 2015, for HTC, Xiaomi, as well some other devices. Some people just couldn't get over it even we have S835 today.

For RAM consumption, I'd say leave it, because on the one hand, U11 has 4GB of RAM, 300MB does no harm. (the theory is, the free RAM is some sort of a waste, you don't need to be careful about the RAM usage as long as you don't experience serious lag) on the other hand, you can always disable the apps if you don't need them. Installing another ROM won't make these apps running with less RAM.

Though if you are on stock you might want to see the other modem thread which has older modems which may work better with the older ROM, you will just have to try them out.

You might also want to check the connections on the transmitter and or tighten the screws on the motherboard so it's properly grounded (possible even clean connectors if tarnished, though normally just disconnect and reconnect a few times will "clean" the tarnish off)
