Without root and factory images, I think this is the best we'll be able to get via ADB. This should be enough for a starting point though. Thanks for your help :)
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] bmg1001:
Someone in this thread managed to get the boot.img. I downloaded it and tried rooting it with Magisk but it didn't work. He already has TWRP and Lineage but they're still unreleased as its being worked on. I can't try the boot image anymore since I'm on the newest update and the image posted was for the previous update.

You need root to get actual dumps. Our TWRP is still only usable via adb since they're loading touchscreen firmware in userspace via a daemon that doesn't want to run without the rest of android up, otherwise we'd have released something.

We have dumps of the latest OTA (NMJ20D) already. If anyone is interested in contributing or following development of this device (TWRP/Lineage/etc) here's a link to our discord: https://discord.gg/DTtY2nb

Few Questions if anyone could help or point in the right direction

1. On my steering wheel up and down arrows, when pressed are reversed in using with music player

Anyway to fix this so that up means up when pressed?

2. Best Music player app to be used and is steering control friendly?

3. What apps do you guys use that are better than stock?

4. When reversing it looks for the rear camera when reversing, which I dont have as of yet

Can I disable this anywhere, as I cant see it in settings unless I am missing it

5. Other Radio Tuner app preferably with Station Text rather than showing numbers etc with Presets

Thanks :)
[Android Head-Units] Danno1975:
Still waiting on mine to be delivered but if it’s the analogue connection or key 1 key 2, could you have them reversed?. Or if via canbus. I think you can re program keys anyway

[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] radon222:
I've been blessed with a phone that has no clicking and no whine...but only one odd behavior. The "Favorites" tab in the stock dialer keeps clearing itself??

I've gone through and "starred" the contacts that I wish to be my favorites and they show in dialer favorites tab for a time, but eventually at some point I'll hit the dialer and it's cleared out again. Is there something I may be doing wrong? Forgetting to click somewhere to lock them in?? Anyone else similar behavior?

It's not a really big deal and hopefully it will fix itself when Oreo 8.1 drops..but I'm still curious.

So... My phone does not yet see this OTA as available when I check for system updates (I'm on a Sprint carrier-locked device so it may take longer than you lucky unlocked folks), and I'm at work without my personal laptop right now so I can't push the update to my phone via ADB. Is there a way to force my phone to see the OTA sooner, or am I stuck waiting until I can get home and use ADB?

Hi everybody,

I've got five Fire 7 tablets with Firmware 5.3.2.1 on it.

Now I want to use them as Touch Screens to controlle my Smart Home like 2 other of my Fire 7 Tablets with CyanogenMod 12 on it. There is the lock screen disabled over the settings, so, after pressing the "on" button, I don't have to swap over the screen to unlock it.

Is there a chance to get this to work on Fire 7 devices with 5.3.2.1 on it?

Thanks 4 help!

Kind regards
[Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DB126:
FireOS enforces a secure lock screen. Don't know of a way to bypass that w/o root which is a no-go on 5.3.2.1 as you likely know.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itje:
has anyone removed WMP from a rom without having issues?

If so, how?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dferreira:
Actually, I already tried it. WM platform is dependent on it, just like Windows is dependent on IE. You can't remove it completly. If you remove it, you'll loose ringtones support, etc - as you must have already noticed.

You can upgrade it tho. I'm assuming you want to replace it with another movie/music player. That's a no go.

Linux 3.10-based kernel for Oneplus One (bacon)

Info:

use this kernel at your own risk. Flashing it the wrong way might brick your device. I'm not responsible for any software/hardware damage.

This kernel is based on top of erorcun's 3.10 kernel. erorcun has spent an enormous time working on this project and he deserves a huge "Thank you" for having succeeded in one of the most difficult tasks in Android development: upgrading a device to a newer Linux release.

Features

:

v3 (12th December)

built with O3 optimizations

CAF CPU boosting driver (replaces cpu_input_boost - might be a temporary switch)

kernel code base updated to Linux 3.10.60

sdcardfs updates

minor miscellaneous improvements

old releases:

v2.1

minor stability fix

v2 (12th November)

kernel code base updates reverted, then re-applied only up to 3.10.54

compiled with an improved set of GCC flags

tuned AIO for SSD-only machines

v1 (30th October)

built with GCC 5, UBER Toolchain and the optimal compiler flags for Krait CPUs

kernel code base upgraded to Linux 3.10.88

power-efficient workqueues

sound control by francisconfranco

CPU voltage control

cpu_input_boost by Sultanxda

sdcardfs & f2fs support

support for both LineageOS's and Sultan's camera HALs

Compatibility

The kernel is compatible with all the Marshmallow/Nougat ROMs that use either LineageOS's camera HAL or Sultan's (a.k.a. CAF's). Just make sure you download the right version ;)

Currently, the kernel has been tested only on LineageOS 14.1, but I'm sure the CAF build is safe to flash and works properly as well.

The kernel doesn't work on Oreo (yet)!

Download

The kernel can be download from AFH: 3.10 kernel on AndroidFileHost

Thanks to:

erorcun, franciscofranco, Sultanxda, CAF & UBER, Mecca EL.

thanks man! any plans on oreo version?
[ONE Original Android Development] Tomoms:
Everything will come in due time :)

It's one of the things I'll work on soon. Be patient, and you'll eventually get what you want ;)
[ONE Original Android Development] Fatsodonkey:
Thank you for this. :)

Don't know if it's your Lineage rom or this kernel, but video that i record is really stuttery. Like very janky.

I recorded the video with the build-in snap camera.
[ONE Original Android Development] Tomoms:
Could you tell me the exact resolution you used?
[ONE Original Android Development] Fatsodonkey:
Happens with all resolutions. I already tested Sultans Lineage as well with this kernel and the same thing happens. Don't know if it tries to record it too fast as it seems to be too quick and stutters a lot.

The Los kernel seems to work fine with video recording altough i just dirty flashed it on top of Boefflas kernel.

E:It definetly is the kernel that is causing the stutter.
[ONE Original Android Development] Tomoms:
I'll compare the camera driver present in this kernel and the one in Sultan's kernel, then try to fix this. Unfortunately at the moment this is the best thing we can achieve, CAF camera support had always got some small problems even in erorcun's build if I recall correctly, and these problems are inevitably "inherited" by my kernel.
[ONE Original Android Development] TbMa:
Thank you for working on this, I was looking forward to release since I saw your announcement in erorcun's thread.

Firstly i tried to dirty flash kernel on top of LineageOS build (N) by idprophecy, since i got positive experience changing kernels (3.4 ones) this way even with encrypted phone. So when i tried to boot up with new kernel, unfortunately it did not work and phone says my password is correct but encryption partition is broken and i need to hard reset.

I went to clean install, removed encryption and flash same LinOS build + your kernel. Then i encrypted phone again and everything went fine. However now my TWRP refuses password for decrypting partitions (its was like that in early N development for bacon on many roms).

Overall perfomance is not really smooth comparing with 3.4 kernels, but i didnt bothered to play with kernel setting.

Also i cant get MTP working, phone only charging via usb and PC (Windows) cannot see its memory.

I know this report is probably useless without kmsg logs, but i didnt have time to pull them off, so sorry about that. I try do it later
[ONE Original Android Development] Mecca EL:
Definitely would need a log, to see what the issue is, with your experiences.

I've been alpha and beta testing this kernel, and I'm not experiencing any of the problems you and other users are describing. Clean install [MENTION=4511190]idprophecy[/MENTION] LOS14.1, flash this kernel, reboot back to recovery and flash MagiskSU, enjoy an ultra responsive OPO.
[ONE Original Android Development] Tomoms:
I faced the same MTP problem when I started developing this kernel several months ago. But I'm sure it appeared at a later stage of development. So MTP shouldn't be an issue as of now. Also, according to [MENTION=6277543]Mecca EL[/MENTION], there should be a substantial performance improvement.

So can you confirm MTP is working on this kernel? What about video recording? Is it lagging or not? I still haven't had enough time to thoroughly try my own kernel :/

Thank you.
[ONE Original Android Development] TbMa:
What about encryption? Are your TWRP able to decrypt data with this kernel?
[ONE Original Android Development] Mecca EL:
I'll double check, and do a complete run down on this latest one, in case it differs from the last one you sent me.

---------- Post added at 08:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:53 AM ----------

I've not set encryption. I've seen way too many problems with that across almost all android devices. I'll see if it's not too much trouble to set and test for you, if I'm able to revert to unencrypted easily.
[ONE Original Android Development] TbMa:
Well i am using encryption since early MM and not a single problem if developer of rom and kernel did his work fine. Biggest payoff its hit battery.

Unfortunately you cant revert encryption without formating whole internal storage, so its a little bit complicated with backups and etc :)
[ONE Original Android Development] SirSoviet:
MTP is not working for me either, I'm using the CAF kernel on LineageOS by Sultan.
[ONE Original Android Development] Tomoms:
Thanks for your feedback, I'll do my best to fix this issue as soon as possible. Do you face the video recording issue?
[ONE Original Android Development] SirSoviet:
I never record videos, so I don't know. I'll check later today.
[ONE Original Android Development] Mr.Ak:
[MENTION=5727088]Tomoms[/MENTION] ,just a heads up: kernel works fine with Marshmallow(los13).
[ONE Original Android Development] Tomoms:
Thank you for letting me know. I'll immediately update the thread.
[ONE Original Android Development] SirSoviet:
Nothing wrong with video recording here.
[ONE Original Android Development] Tomoms:
Hmm... I'll try it myself soon. In the meantime, my main concern will be fixing MTP, and it won't take me too much, fortunately.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accessories] tricktaylor:
The Staedtler pencil is sweet. Very long, if you like the way a pencil feels after it's very first sharpening, strength and weight wise, it's great. And it comes with a cap, albeit a delicate one, to protect the tip. It does not have a side button and comes with no replaceable tips, though I suspect the standard ones that come with the phones stylus will fit.

The new spen that comes with A3 and galaxy book is the best imo. No cap, which I don't like. A $70 pen should have something to protect the sensitive tech in the tip.. Like the Surface Pro 4 pen its magnetic and has a clip.

The Wacom Bamboo Smart (Galaxy Note Version) is as good as the Stad pencil or s3 spen. It has a cap and side button.

Last and pictured to the far left is the Wacom Bamboo Stylus Feel for Galaxy Note. It's the oldest and predecessor to the Bamboo Smart. It uses replaceable tips but not like the newer ones used in the pens mentioned above. Though all plastic and the same texture and weight as the Bamboo Smart, it is painted to have some silver accents, and is more attractive imo than Wacom's Bamboo Smart, which is matte black throughout.

I have owned the second variation of Samsung's Spen with eraser (There are 2 models: 1 released after Note 2 and one after Note 8.o and 10.1) I lost it during a recent move. It was good. Used same older style tips as Bamboo Feel and the eraser was handy. Good luck finding one of these for sale.

There is a bluetooth spen (model 5100??) that was released around the same time as note 8.0. Once paired it answers calls, plays music, and so on...

Any wacom emr or penabled stylus will work.
