I don't have anything to trade in, I don't need two of them.

I was hoping to get in on that $300.00 dollar promo and get a Samsung watch but that ended. I was hoping they might have something coming up for Black Friday other than a Bogo. I'm one person, I don't need two phones LOL :)

Read the post I just posted, offering $400 for a trade. Just buy an S5 for $150 and trade it in.
[Android General] Awanonimik:
This is a list of Nougat ROMs for this device and it's clones.

The list will be in the following format:

ROM : Version : Device : Tested/Untested

LineageOS : 14.1 : MMXC5 / E481 : Untested

Resurrection Remix : 5.8.4 : MMXC5 / E481 : Tested

crDROID : v3.5 : MMXC5 / E481 : Tested

AOSGPX : 7.1.2 : MMXC5 / E481 : Untested

There are also ROMs for the Elephone P8000, however the first time I tried one I got into a bootloop. It could just have been that I didn't wipe my caches, or it could have been a fault in the ROM; nonetheless I haven't tried any others from that device.

I couldn't find any for other devices, let me know if you see others.

Here is the factory firmware, as according to this post (Direct Download).

Also, the stock recovery: Original Post | Direct Download.
[Android General] elbastardo1:
Im currently running crDroid and I couldn't be happier. Runs far better than the original firmware and the useless marshmallow update.
[Android General] BereiBlue:
Have you encountered any bugs with crDroid? Did screen on time and standby increase by any good margin because doze and other os optimizations? With stock I get 7hrs SOT with LTE half the day. 5hrs if Skype calls and such.
[Android General] elbastardo1:
Only bug so far is the kill app button not working (long press the back button) and sometimes after reboot sim cards not being detected. Usually it corrects itself after a few minutes. If not, I'll just re-flash the fix

Battery gets drained pretty fast compared to lollipop, but then again I used lollipop with xposed, greenify and amplify.
[Android General] BereiBlue:
Happy to hear only minor bugs. I'm waiting on black Friday SD card to ship and then I'll be able to test too.

On lollipop all I needed to use was power nap to kill unwanted wake locks. I'll definitely try to get it to work because batter life is important to me. Only reason I'm upgrading is because of older exploits that stock didn't get updates for. Other than that stock with xposed is extremely stable for me.(30-60 days between reboots)

Do you know if crDroid is using stock lollipop kernel or is it a ported kernel? That would effect battery life greatly I suppose.
[Android General] BereiBlue:
review of roms

Review time. Installed and tested these roms by wiping dalvik cache, system, data, cache and internal storage. Flashed ROM then gapps then "front camera flash" patch lastly flashed sim patch. Afterwards I wiped cache and dalvik cache again before rebooting. Once I had access to settings I disabled display live/night mode/blue filter for all ROMs.

All the roms tested used about 1GB of ram (and stock ROM being around <600MB.).

Resurrection Remix : 5.8.4 : Looks to me a part of this rom was made by another group of people that were not given credit.. Default browser loads the homepage of the other group. The system FM radio app was asking for root permission(denied it). Also it had email services running before I added any accounts can't remember this being the norm. Other than that this ROM ran the best in terms of speed and ui. Uninstalled because of security concerns.

LineageOS : 14.1 : This ROM has about the same speed as resurrection which is good but the ui stuttered/not smooth. Uninstalled because ported by same user as resurrection.

crDROID : v3.5 : This one ran the worse. It was slow and stuttered throughout the ui. Missed some customizations that Resurrection had so not sure why any one would want to use this instead.

AOSGPX : Didn't bother installing because last I heard they copied and pasted code from crDRoid.

At the end of the day I reverted back to stock because of security concerns. As well as having more ram available for apps. If I had more than one phone phone I would wireshark/test connections of the ROMs to confirm but I do not have. Hopfully this helps someone.
[Android General] Awanonimik:
Just wondering with the ROM testing, did you disable the LiveDisplay nonsense? It drops my FPS to about 10, and is enabled by default.

Sorry, didn't read your whole post. I didn't find UI stuttering unless I enabled weird kernel stuff, or had L Speed installed.
[Android General] tinpanalley:
Does anyone happen to know if any of these ROMs fix the problem that the official MM caused which was that all camera apps created a very dark image and took extremely dark photos?
[Android General] elbastardo1:
Im using crDroid and yes, it fixes it. That is one of the main reasons why I decided to keep it and got rid of Marshmallow.
[Android General] tinpanalley:
Hmm... sounds good. Any issues with that ROM? Slow downs, wonky USB port, minijack works ok, etc?
[Android General] elbastardo1:
sucktastic battery life (not like the original firmware was good to begin with) no compass (gmaps will point north regardless of your orientation) as soon as you install the google app (okay google!) the device will run a bit slower.
[Android General] tinpanalley:
Oh, ok... well in that case, that doesn't exactly help things. I'm gonna go back to Lollipop rooted to take out the bloatware. Can you recommend a way of doing that that is known to work well?
[Android General] elbastardo1:
SP flash tool, scatter file and the original firmware (not a flashable zip). It's all in the original BLOX thread, buried somewhere there. Flash TWRP recovery using adb fastboot and flash super su with twrp recovery for root access.
[Android General] tinpanalley:
Wow, thorough, thanks. Don't know what half those things are but I'll look them up. I guess there's no way to go straight back to Lollipop without flashing a stock ROM. I mean, by rooting it now maybe and then downgrading or something?
[Android General] elbastardo1:
You could flash a lollipop twrp backup, if anyone uploaded one or if you made one before. But if you don't have it, only way is by sp flash tool and original firmware (which is not a recovery flashable zip).
[Android General] Teblakuda4o4:
Been using the Crdroid rom for a few weeks now. Havn't had any lag or extreme battery issues. Im interested in trying the resurrection remix rom since it was tested to be the fastest, tho them security issues are kinda holding me back. One thing im lookin for is front camera flash and back aswell. on Crdroid u cannot toggle it in the camera app, tho the flash works.
[Android General] tinpanalley:
What are these security issues people are mentioning? Isn't a ROM a ROM? I don't get it.

Also, if crDroid works fine, you could just try any other camera app. There are several that are quite good. I wish there were videos of crDroid.
[Android General] Teblakuda4o4:
I mean with what's going on with Kaspersky being investigated for allowing certain trogens to work undetected and Kaspersky is own by Russians and since when does fm radio need root access.

Just a bit sketchy you know... But it could be just over-thinking it.
[Android General] tinpanalley:
I'd just not use the radio. [emoji4]
[Android General] Teblakuda4o4:
But the thing is you don't know what else has been tampered with.
[Android General] tinpanalley:
Honestly, BLU isn't the most honest company in the world anyway, I think we're past that point. ;)
[Android General] Teblakuda4o4:
???You have a point
[Android General] BereiBlue:
Pictures looked good. But if I remember videos looked dark to me on RR.

On a side note. If any1 wants a lag free blue filter go into settings>display>calibration and you can take blue from 100 to 90, or however low u would like it really. This option was available on RR.
[Android General] BereiBlue:
Had some free time after finals. Looks like the xda op who uploaded these roms to xda didnt give credit to the other group, that is why everything seemed to strange and sketchy too me. Strange considering its against the rules to not give credit. I might see if a mod can enforce the rule on that thread to hopefully stop any1 else from becoming confused. The roms should be safe. Still no idea why radio app wants root tho. Glasswire is 99 cents if any1 is paranoid.

---------- Post added at 07:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:53 AM ----------

Exactly why I reverted back to stock.

After disabling all the bloat and then some(like ota and few other stuff) on stock rom I never had a moments notice that my phone had a unwanted network connect over the period of 2months. I stopped logging after 2months cuz school/work/lazy/time.
[Android General] tinpanalley:
So what do you recommend for having a smoothly functioning Life One X with a working camera? Just keep it Lollipop stock or do you think it's ok to try one of the ROMs?

Out of curiosity, where did the ROMs come from then?
[Android General] BereiBlue:
Imho I have like zero issues with stock rom+xposed and i have great battery life for my use(5-7hr SOT). I only tried these nougat roms because i was curious and for some reason expecting a sort of wow factor being on a newer os... didnt wow me.(

I

only have 3 minor issues with stock rom. 1. Lock Screen occasionally resists touch inputs while charging, easy fix press power to turn off and on again screen. Which might be a hardware defect not even software. 2. When ever i have a missed call for what ever reason when i unlock my phone it show the "App Info" of the last one seen. 3. The stock gallery app ignores touch input when opened, easy fix close and reopen or use another gallery app. )

I hardly ever use the video recording on my phone ( twice a year maybe) but its nice to know it will work when i need it. If you are curious i recommend making a nandroid backup and then test the rom and see if has any issues for you( I could be wrong about the video being dark, was going off of memory).

To me it appears a part of the rom was ported from www.L-rom.ru and the op who uploaded didn't give credit.
[Android General] tinpanalley:
So, by stock you mean Lollipop as it came when purchased but rooted to remove bloat, etc. correct? If so, then that's the last time I had a fluidly functioning phone. But there were some games that wouldn't install on a rooted phone. Oh, I can't do a nandroid backup. I'm presently on MM stock and the camera doesn't work properly hence all my questions.

What is xposed?
[Android General] BereiBlue:
Yes, I mean Lollipop as it came with the phone but i do have the one ota update as well.

Sorry cant help with games i only play jet pack joy ride once in a blue moon and it works fine.

I am sorry to hear that. I heard MM stock did not run too well when discussed in the main BLOX Thread.

This is xposed: https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3034811

It allows to run modules on your phone to do extra customizations or system effects.

For example, I use a module called gravitybox which gives me alot of the same customization options that Resurection Remix had but for stock lollipop.
[Android General] tinpanalley:
I think you know a lot more about this than I do. I'll have to look into this xposed thing.

Anyway, I can always go back to Lollipop. I think there's a link that explains it here, how to go back from MM. I miss all the camera apps I had.

Hello.

I'm trying to install Remix OS on tablet "Lenovo ThinkPad 10" (1gen). Processor Z3795 with Intel 7th Gen graphics. I installed x86 and x64 versions, but there is no touch screen support.

Is there any way to do something about it?

I can't help you with that, but good to know someone's trying!!!

I'm also trying to get a reliable Android OS to run on my Thinkpad 10. I've so far discarded all emulators, and also not in favour of virtual because of low power of our tablets. I've so far only tried Android-x86's ROM and though that's a lovely piece of software, running beautifully with touch and keyboard and pen and all, I can't get it to produce sound nor use bluetooth.

Still looking...

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Tupac_Shakur:
Let's get this solved. I willing to Donate $25 dollars to the person who solves this mystery.

Rogers Name Display:

What is it?

Rogers Name Display is a enhanced call display, instead of normal call display service displaying a number, it also sends the cell phone their name and the number.

eg: normal call display: 1-416-222-2222

eg: Rogers name display: Joe Smith 1-416-222-2222

name will display even though you dont have it in your phonebook.

this is just a software issue, not a hardware issue as Rogers carries their own branded htc phone like Touch, Tytn. it works with their rom but it wont work with a non branding phone.

I am not smart to figure this out, someone out there will be able to figure this out.
[Nokia 6 Questions & Answers] minik971:
Hi,

I've noticed that sometimes when I'm locking the phone, the screen goes black - there are vibrations as when recognizing invalid fingerprint. Moreover, when I was watching the video suddenly the Google Now appeared (it's set up as assistant app, long pressing the home button activate it), so again - the home button pressed itself.

Have you guys noticed similar symptoms? My phone is fairly new and I'm wondering if it's a serious hardware issue or software. :confused:
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sp3tan:
So ill try to keep this short.

Not so long ago i found out that when i call or someone calls me People cannot hear me. I came to the conclusion that my microphone just simply died out. When i try to record myself with the voice recorder all i hear is random annoying noise. But if i like slap the phone or scream loud enough i will eventually hear myself. To bypass this issue i had to use earphones which isnt a problem at all i prefer that honestly.

3 Days ago i was trying to call my Dad and he couldnt hear me at all. It was strange because i had my earphones on me. I didnt care of it that day so fast forward today i remembered that it didnt work by talking so i tested it with my brothers phone. Heres the weird part. When i dont have any earphones on and just try to talk straight up I can now hear MYSELF talking. Like whatever i say will just get back through my phone.

Then i got the idea to try out speakers instead. And this is where it got even more weird, almost scary. Here's the video of my brother recording my phone doing some strange noises after talking(TURN DOWN THE VOLUME A BIT): https://streamable.com/iwni0

At this point i have no clue as to why this is happening, where it even came from, anything at all. Im out of ideas. Nobody else as far as my research goes seems to have this issue. I'd appreciate any type of help.

Previously i was on ARHD 45.0 and earlier today i figured i'd try 53.1 again but no luck.

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] al4d:
I just received a notice of a system update from Verizon. In my old rooted days I simply would have ignored it. However without having to worry about breaking root, I decided to take the update right away.

However, before diving in, I did take the following precaution: I exported my LG package disabler selections and enabled all disabled items.

Here is more information regarding the update from the Verizon website: https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/lg-v30-update/
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] PerCompLLC:
I too just ran the update. However I did not re-enable the 51 packages I had disabled. The update ran without incident and when I checked, the disabled packages were still disabled. Just sharing my experience.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Galaxy Princess:
Yes, it isn't necessary to re-enable everything just to take an update. The components, while updated, still remain disabled.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] PerCompLLC:
Yeah. I posted that in one of the other threads but someone wanted to argue about it. So I didn't post this until I had actually confirmed it.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nay Tyzon:
In my case, I deleted stuff using adb debloat procedure, so the files were physically not present, and the update went just fine.

The list of apps/processes I removed are in the adb debloat thread.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] PerCompLLC:
The files are never actually removed, which is why the update still works. They are only uninstalled for the user - but they are still present on the device.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] johnp357:
hmm... I didn't receive it. what is the number of the update? the last one I have is VS99610c dated 10/06/2017?
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nay Tyzon:
Oh, interesting. So there's the factory image, a master copy unpacked, then a copy for each user profile?

When I began and finished the adb removal process, I checked memory and made some notes (which I now can't locate, sorry), and noticed that I gained a couple hundred MBs of internal storage as reported by the System > Storage menu.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] PerCompLLC:
You are exactly correct. That is why they come back on a factory reset.

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] WishMonster:
Hey,

I've rooted my A1 using this guide:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRcYUMBgvaI

I have magisk 13.4 installed, and passing Root checker verification.

When I try to edit build.prop file using solid explorer or buidprop editor app I get an error, "can't save the file"

even tough both of them has been granted "superuser accesses" using magisk.

Any ideas?

On another matter, I just received November OTA, I have TWRP installed,

Will it be possible to install the update at all? in particularity will I be able to install it right after I manage to edit the build.prop file, and still "have" the edited file after the OTA in order to keep using GCAM? I don't care about root access, all I want is GCAM, and updated phone if possible.

Thanks! :)

I reinstalled magisk, and updated to v 14.5.

& here:

all keep crashing. should I do something other then installing the apk and editing the build prop?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] WishMonster:
Second update:

The "enabled" keyword vs "enable" made the difference. Everything works like a charm. Picture quality is dramatically improved.

Thanks!

BTW:

Anyone has good configuration for GCAM port from here:

https://www.xda-developers.com/google-camera-hdr-customization-raw-support/

I copied the configuration from post.

I believe there is a better one since the picture is size is significantly smaller (~1.7mb vs 2.5 - 3mb usually),

- Note that although the smaller size picture quality is definitely better.
