I have a couple old Nexus 4 phones I'd like to give to my young kids. Google's family link program only works on Nougat but does that mean it will work if I install Nougat or Oreo ROM on my Nexus 4? Has anyone tried this with any of the Nougat or Oreo ROMs?

[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 00_ijk_00:
Hi, newb here...

i just wanna confirm if your x-reality/super vivid mode is really working because i can't really see any difference when i turn it on (or maybe its just me) which made me question the functionality of the image processor of my phone and the image enhancement..

i used the screenshot method to compare the super vivid mode/x-reality turned on vs turned off using that and again i can't really see much of a difference.

i think the camera app mod i'm using has nothing to do with the image preview quality since the preview itself doesn't satisfy me the quality its previewing... the previous owner of this phone wasn't able to backup the TA partition so i got no idea what the original version should look like but i owned an xperia ray before so i know what to expect when the x-reality engine is turned on.

i'm using rooted z5 e6653 with this rom and kernel in the link:

THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR FEEDBACKS...
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Keramzyt:
Most of all, if the previous owner unlocked the bootloader without backing up (and reflashing) the TA partition, the DRM keys are gone. X-reality is one of the DRM-ed things, I believe.

Other than that, are you using the original Album app? If you're using a third-party camera app, it may not show.

Also, do you give the photo a while to 'load'? Nougat made the loading time atrocious, to the point that when you normally watch the pics, you don't see the X-reality. The latest update helped a bit, but it still takes good 15 seconds to load the enhancements.

To check, I recommend using a photo with blue sky. Ever since Xperia Z, blue was the most affected color. by BRAVIA/X-reality Somehow, it really cranks it up, to the point that it may be on par with Samsung's OLEDs. You will definitely notice the change, if there is any. If not, you're out of luck.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 00_ijk_00:
Hi, thanks for this, i wasn't able to consider using the original album app. It did work using the Album app. Now i'm a bit dissapointed to know that the phone's enhancement engine is working fine and that the results aren't tjat good compared to other phones nowadays. But i still love sony especially because of the OIS and the HiRes audio.

Thanks Again. ?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] piratedpanda:
Hello everyone,

While trying to flash TWRP today, I noticed that my Bootloader and Baseband version is blank in Fastboot mode. The phone boots up just fine and I can use it without any issues.

Whenever I am changing ROMs, I clean flash it, meaning, I go to Advanced Wipe and select everything except USB-OTG. Since this was a bit weird, I also checked the status using Getvar all in fastboot mode, this is what I got (if it helps)

Is this something I should be worried about?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Have a nice day! :)

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] piratedpanda:
Hi, apparently, that is normal, I checked my friend's OP5 and it was blank there too. However your issues seems to be more like a wipe/corruption of the EFS partition perhaps. If you have a TWRP Backup of the EFS Partition, you can probably fix all your network issues.

Hope this helps.

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] SpeedyRS2:
Hi,

since Oreo (Official version, no root, everything original) I have a problem with bluetooth audio, when I'm connected to one of my cars (Audi A6 and A3).

Everytime spotify starts to play. Even if i start manually another player (Smart Audio Player for audibooks) in many cases it starts playing for a few seconds, stopps and than spotify starts playing again. Sometimes it is not possible to play the audiobooks.

If I mute the volume in my car, Smart Audio Player stopps playing (when I had the luck, that it was not interruped by spotify ;) ). If I unmute the volume, spotify continues to play and not Smart Audio Player.

This behavior has come new with Oreo. With Android 7.x everything was fine.

Do you have some tips for me, what I can do? This behavior is very annoying.

Thanks a lot.

PureFusion ROM with lightning kernel v15

Enable Doze for Google Play services magisk module

Forcedoze from Play store

Greenify with Xposed

Amplify Xposed module

However, I uninstalled Xposed and all those battery savings tweaks/apps to see how battery life is with just the ROM. So far I'm at 2 hours screen on time and went from 100-80. About 5 hours off the charger.

6 hrs and 50 mins of SOT

After 95% battery charging becomes slow.

Is it good to charge to 100% or 90% is enough for daily usage affecting on battery life?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] alanjolly123:
Charging between 40 to 80 is the best for battery longevity.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] painball:
Indeed. But the 1-100% that we see on screen is basically the 30-90% of REAL battery capacity. It's controlled by chip in battery. It's tested. Measured. 5 years ago by someone on XDA.

Same with Hybrid/Electric cars which shows us 1-100% which in reality is 40-70% of REAL battery capacity.

You cannot destroy your phone battery with regular charging until you don't put it over extreme heat.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] alanjolly123:
The reason for 40-80 is not because of the capacity rather it's because of the shorter charge cycle. You just need 20 minutes to top up that much. so heat buildup is less. Also after 80 the battery gets heated more to top-up till 100 even though it's trickle charging.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] fanbogo:
Maybe I should try, got without 11 h sot
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] OcazPrime:
Good, those battery saving things are not at all good for a running environment as they seek out the cancellation and constant stopping of programs processes and apps that your phone doesnt know how to react to other than restarting them which wastes more energy. I was never on the side of custom kernels but i had used them and received no benefit in performance or battery. Went to pure stock and my battery is insanely good. 5 hours of sot and i havent charged for 3 days still going even with Bluetooth and high accuracy location on all 67 hours with consistent switching between wifi and data but i do leave the data on in combination with WiFi no matter what.

yep this is why you should always back up your efs partition as soon as you are done rooting. without a backup repairing this is going to be very hard.

Thanks for the reply. I really don't know what happened. Woke up the other day and it wouldn't send texts. It would receive them, but not send. When I took it to Verizon, they suggested a factory restore, so I started that and that's when the errors began.

What do you mean by having a backup to restore?

So is there even a way to repair this?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] partcyborg:
To be honest I don't know for sure but I don't have a good feeling.b efs contains your IMEI and all other per-phone information necessary to get a device on the network. If it's erased then all that info is gone so if you didn't back it up it's for good.

There are places (some less than reputable, others surely very reputable) that supposedly can repair these in certain cases, but I know nothing more.

Also fyi: if your initial thought is to clone someone else's efs, know that that is quite illegal in just about every country as it amounts to IMEI spoofing

Hello great people of XDA :cowboy:

It comes a time in life when you need to give back, and not just leech :good:.

Here's approximately 250GB of various rooting files, for various devices, from Asus to Xperia. You'll find almost everything you'd ever need, from rooted boot images for the latest and greatest devices out there, to files no longer available on the internet, for the ancient ones :silly:.

As usual, use them at your own risk, although there are some tutorials in there as well. Feel free to drop a question in here, should you need any help. I will not be around much (the reason I'm giving this for sharing is that I'm quite busy working for one of the world's tech giants, and I no longer have any use for all these files), but if you'll mention me in your question, I'll reply (eventually).

[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] GuestK0037:
Why TWRP Installations are NOT supported:

CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y

(and why I'm not using it!)

Most custom/android kernel devs are using the above configuration in kernel compilation, which is arguably very BAD... I understand that boot partitions are small and the desire to install TWRP to them, thus there is a need to reduce the kernel's size....and yes, this will achieve that - However;

1. SUSE, RedHat, etc (Enterprise linux) disable CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE -> it's original use case has proven to be invalid. Even Google (in their own documentation) advise against using this; https://source.android.com/devices/tech/perf/boot-times ....

2. It suppresses useful compiler warnings....

3. As SOCs have become more powerful, google has come to the same conclusion that Enterprise Linux did back in 2012.

4. by turning off CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE, we achieve better performance, boot time and better cache utilization.

(The Above is quoted from Clark Williams, A Senior Software Architect @ RedHat -> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=796297)

I know of no other way to significantly reduce kernel size. Disabling some debugging, unneeded features, etc helps - but not enough.... I am focusing on optimization, using newer builds of GCC/Linaro, performance enhancements, fixing compilation errors, etc, etc -> these things are more important than trying to support TWRP installation.

Therefore;

I do NOT support installing TWRP

....
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] spr33:
This sounds incredible. All those features.. and then some. Hard for me to test as I rarely use my PC but I may have to go and give this a try.

Edit: would it be possible to create a build for those who do want to use TWRP? Would be great to do some benchmarks (real work using DiscoMark and synthetic using geekbench/AnTuTu/etc) to see differences between the two.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] housepabldroid:
All those features are welcome in this poor Oreo pixel community! thanks for your work.. ;)

i'll try it as soon as possible!
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] GuestK0037:
No. like I said. I don't/won't support installing twrp. it would require reverting a bunch of patches/ work that I've already put in... and also not using linaro GCC 7.2.1 compiler, either...

the time invested would be a complete waste for me and I would have maintain another separate branch. test another build, etc, etc'... i'm not doing it. my current goal is to reduce my branches into one single branch/build;. ... which will end up hopefully being binder_rt... not create more.

feature wise, pretty much a 'best of' what any other custom kernel offers for Marlin, all of the hardening stuff (I think I'm the only Marlin kernel on XDA with that), etc... afaict, I'm the only one rolling in EASv1.4, cpu-boost, dynamic stune boost; all of which I've ported myself... some of the audio driver stuff I personally ported (more coming) and binder_rt is my baby; I ported aosp binder and researched / Inplemented all of the changes to Binder...

in my yet-to-be-released binder builds I also have backported a large chunk of the linux locking, workqueues and scheduling code and some other bits from newer mainline linux kernels (which allow me to pull in some new features and use them).

so I'd rather work on this kind of stuff, over caring about twrp, doubling my workload to support running synthetic benchmarks between gcc's -Os vs. -O2 optimization levels...
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Donric13:
Thanks for the new kernel. Sounds very interesting. Can't try it atm because i am on dp1 from 8.1. Hope you gonna also support 8.1 when official sources are out. For me battery life is already great on dp1.
