Did you fixed your device??

Nope :(
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] ums1405:
Bruv,

Had the exact same problem after an OTA update.

Don't waste money on DC-unlocker and funkyHuawei, just send it back and see what they tell you.

Even if in Warranty or not (or bootloader unclocked) just send it back. They are the only ones that can do a full board wipe (low level format).

Sorry.

blem with microphone only Video Call (not with Audio-Call)

Hallo everybody,

I have Bluboo Maya Max with the latest original firmware (DK9F23WAE.LTXI.H.SCS8.0419.V3.07) and did not try to root the device or change anything related to audio setup.

When I try to use Maya Max for VOIP calls (only audio-calls) with Whatsapp or Skype - it works good, the other side (the person I am calling) can hear me as well as when I call directly, i.e. VOIP audio call is very good and I can hear the other side very well.

However, when I try to do a Video-Call through Whatsapp or Skype (or any other Videocall app) - the video (picture) is good (in both direction), I can hear and see the other side very well, they can also see me very well, BUT: the other side can not hear me or hears me very badly !!!! As if my microphone volume is

I could not find any setup option to increase the microphone volume.

It is the same no matter what Internet speed I have and no matter if it is LTE or WiFi-DSL-connection. As if the phone uses another microphone or different audio-setup setting/volume when I try to do the Video call . This is specific to my phone (Bluboo) since when I use another phone (Laegoo or Samsung S6) at the same place/time and with the same Internet connection method - the other side can hear me and see me very well (so it is not problem of the I-net connection speed).

Does anybody have an idea why is this happening and how could I solve the problem?

Thanks for your help/suggestions.

What about the H990DS?

I'm purchasing a brand new V20 (H990DS) tomorrow. I'm interested in what OP is asking, can someone confirm if it is possible? And what are the steps to do so? Any precautions too? (Unroot, revert to stock and lock the bootloader)
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] origin248:
Not sure if anyone else has faced this problem - but I recently purchased my A1 and more often than not the phone remains unlocked no matter whether I use the pin / password or pattern. i.e. when I press the power button to show the lock screen the phone shows that the phone is unlocked even when I enable the pin / password.

I have enabled "power button instant lock", and changed it so that it auto-locks immediately after sleep; but it doesn't help.

The finger print scanner works perfectly fine; but even when I use the wrong finger to try to unlock the phone 5 times - i.e. when it should lock the phone down, I can still unlock the phone with a swipe.

Anyone else ran into this problem or have a solution? Thanks in advance
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] nilkanth.marshiwane:
I am also facing same problem.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] origin248:
So....after a long day of troubleshooting I figured out what the problem is. It's due to the Smartlock feature where the phone will remain unlocked in "safe places" and or when the phone is being held in your hands.

Feeling like a proper tool right now haha

I'm in the same issue but can you please tell me what the reason and how to fix..?

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
Dude, you just literally quoted the reason and fix. It's due to the Smartlock feature where the phone will remain unlocked in "safe places" and or when the phone is being held in your hands.

Go to settings, click on search button, type in "smart", open smartlock, disable everything.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] soumik_bhowmick:
really thanks for share this tips. last few hours facing same problem. now fixed it after reading this article.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] _jis_:
:confused:

I just wonder how did you guys configure the Smart Lock without knowing it, because it isn't enabled by default.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Localhorst86:
at some point you'll see a notification in your status bar telling you something like this:

"it seems you're unlocking your device often in this location. Do you want to enable smart unlock to allow easier access?"

The notification is actionable iirc and allows you to enable smart lock right there with a single click. But it seems that is either badly worded or people don't understand what it wants to tell them. Since I don't remember the notification verbatim I can't really comment on what's to blame here.

What's important is that google will allow you to configure this without ever going to the settings menu. My guess is that it happened here.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] _jis_:
Thank you Localhorst86. BTW I am using Smart Lock on my Android and Chrome OS devices and I know it very well and its purpose. Your guess is right I think, I have got exactly this system notification on my new Mi A1 when testing it for a week or so. But if I didn't know anything about Smart Lock I'll learn what it is and what its purpose is as a first step. Just blindly confirm such a offer can have a consequences as we could seen in this thread ;)
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Localhorst86:
I agree with the notion that I look up something if I don't know what it does (which wasn't the case with smart lock, because I was already familiar with what it does) but I know that a lot of people don't. They have their system tell them "Hey, you wanna unlock your device less often when at home?" And don't realize what the system actually wants to ask: "Hey, do you want me to disable your password protection *completely* when you're at home?".

Another lot of people go through their settings "Smart Lock? Don't know what that is, better not touch it" or "I have never been there, that can't be the cause of my issue".

It's human nature. I can tell from being a human for the last 31 years (and definatelly not an allien from Bettelgeuse).
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] gattone_16:
ciao io ho usato questo procedimento funziona benissimo

Istruzioni

https://www.inthebit.it/come-bypassare-lockscreen-android/

Scaricate e copiate sul vostro telefono Aroma file manager.zip | Download

Avviate il telefono in recovery

Tramite l’opzione “mount”, montate tutto

Flashate poi il file aromafilemanager.zip

Dopo l’installazione, aromafilemanager si avvierà, usate il bilanciere del volume per muovervi e il tasto accensione per selezionare, come con la recovery

Andate in “Menu”, poi in “Settings”

In fondo, selezionate “mount all partition in startup”, quindi uscite da aromafilemanager

Dopo aver chiuso aroma, flashatelo nuovamente e si avvierà di nuovo

Spostatevi in “Data”, poi in “System”

Trovate ora gesture.key (per la sequenza) o password.key (per la password). Tap prolungato su uno di questi, quindi selezionate “delete”

Riavviate

With this type of kernel, is tweaking really necessary anymore? The GPU boost enabled by default or should I install a manager to enable?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] galaxys:
Great to C! :) Kudos
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Freak07:
Gpu boost is set to the lowest of the three settings, where it takes action, by default.

Exkm is only needed to set cpu, gpu freqs other than mine. Or to set another tcp congestion algorithm if you face any problems with westwood.

Kcal may come in quite handy too.

also you can change io scheduler to another one I enabled. (deadline, maple, tripndroid) cfq is patched up a bit to work better so I left it at that even tough it is the stock setting already.

Did you personally select the new volt tables or did you leave it open for us to control from our selected app? Just wondering! I love your work so i cant wait to flash this
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Freak07:
It isn’t adjustable for the user by any app. The voltage range (adjusted by me) the kernel can choose from for all frequencies is hardcoded in the kernel at compilation.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] eqbirvin:
Ahhh gotcha. Explains why i havent seen voltage tables in any kernel for like 3 years hahaha thank you!
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Freak07:
It’s since the 64 bit architecture dropped, that qualcomm started to introduce something like intelligent, automatic voltage scaling. The device will automatically and intelligently pick the most appropriate voltage for a frequency on a given scenario.

I actually saw an attempt to make it adjustable by the user again but it required to partly disable it and make it more static again on github at some point if I remember correctly. But this attempt didn’t prove to be stable and I think in general less desirable.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] eqbirvin:
Oh i didnt know it had to do with the move the 64 bit. Thats interesting! Id rather have the SoC/System selecting the voltage rather than myself anyway

Thank you very much! This is how the community should work! If this tweak helps someone I will put it in a small section in the OP and maybe open a short thread in the mods section.

also thank you for the donation! it´s highly appreciated. :)

I think that´s a magisk issue as I had this a few times but it seems random. but glad you got it working.

There are some patches (EAS, schedutil) in there since 1.0.8 that should improve performance/ UI fluidity. At least [MENTION=7896855]kinfam[/MENTION] also noticed it on walleye without me mentioning it. So I don´t think it´s purely placebo :)

I just tested it again and my MAC adress changed in my router. maybe try to disable/enable wifi and reconnect to your router to see if that makes a change?

I use exkm to toogle the file to 1 but that really shouldn´t make a difference.

Root works fine for me but I don´t use solid explorer. Do you have a working busybox installed?

There is a description of this issue on xda here:

regarding [MENTION=1692011]Ksehwail[/MENTION] ´s question. It affects not only taimen but seemingly walleye and 1st gen pixel devices too... I´m not even sure it´s entirely kernel related.

But I had a quick look at the display driver files and enabled a few power saver settings. Will post a beta build later :)

hopefully google will fix it soon.

I dug a bit through the documentation of the panels here

https://android.googlesource.com/ke...ion/devicetree/bindings/fb/mdss-dsi-panel.txt

I came up with a few changes. I also pushed them to git.

Changelog

- enable partial display update

- enable ulps suspend mode

- disable lp11

- allow phy powerdown during idle screen

Yep magisk busybox-ndk. It's odd I switched back to flash kernel and solid explorer found root again. Tried a couple different debugging methods and couldn't get all apps to find root on your kernel andac address not charging.

But upon reboot, it keep booting back to TWRP. I cant enter system. LoL

Any idea ?

Could you post that log?

What is /sys/fs/selinux/enforce set to?

I’m enforcing and getting a lot of selinux denied from solid explorer in logcat.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Freak07:
Why do you flash twrp after the kernel?

Just flashing the kernel zip + magisk is enough as the ak2 zip will handle the rest.

But I have no idea. I flashed the zip and magisk in twrp as usual and rebooted.

Maybe you had a bad download? Did you check md5?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] otonieru:
Oh well, in the past, TWRP always overwritten when i flash new kernel,

Is the behaviour changed already ? Will i lost my TWRP if i didnt reflash it ?

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Badger50:
Hey Freak07, great work as usual! Question, when trying out new kernels, I've tried em all, I always use the following method without fail...yet anyway.

In twrp...

Flash stock boot.img

Flash twrp.zip

Flash new custom kernel

Flash magisk

Reboot, profit.

My question is, is it still necessary to go back to the stock boot.img before changing kernels? Or will magisk patching take care of that. Just curious to hear your perspective. ??
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Freak07:
When changing kernels I would flash stock boot.img yes :)
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] joeyddr:
I do not get the warning msg when I flash the flash kernel, maybe [MENTION=6842057]nathanchance[/MENTION] could shed some light on that.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Freak07:
It is because the dtbo gets patched.

I forgot which changes exactly reside on the dtbo and cause this message to appear.

My kernel has a few more changes than flash kernel, which cause the message to appear.

Is it really that big of a deal? It doesn’t cause any non functionality to your device and is just a message you click away after booting up. (on the stock rom)

Additionally if you you’re on a custom rom the message doesn’t appear at all.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] CyberpodS2:
To answer your question, no it's not a big deal at all. Lol At least not to those of us who wear that kind of thing like a badge of honor. :good:
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] joeyddr:
It's not at all, was just curious why. The hang on reboot is a bit annoying.

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Freak07:

@Freak07 I have an odd issue with Kiriskura Kernel (however, I do want to thank you for your awesome work!):

Solid Explorer doesn't display anything when the root directory is selected (I'm rooted with magisk obviously). It's just empty, like an empty folder. I know it's a kernel specific issue, as everything works as expected on the stock (rooted) kernel, as well as ElementalX and Flash kernels.

Logcat and dmesg(zip due to being too large) are attached.

Please let me know if there is anything else I could provide that would be helpful.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] samteeee:
I can confirm this however I have no problem when using "Root Explorer" to show the "Root" directory!
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] bosox284:
So I've come across this issue, but I didn't even think to attribute it to the kernel. Make a blank file in the root directory (you can delete it after), and the contents of root should appear. You may need to refresh the folder, I can't recall entirely, but I believe this is how I solved it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] qwer777:
Did you make the blank file with Solid Explorer? Because I get "Error No root access available" (after I've given it root access, and even get a toast notification about superuser being granted) when I try to.
