hi guys..anyone using knock code security features on your v30/v30+ ? it doesnt seem to provide backup pin in case you forgotten your knock code pattern...

was having some difficulty on remembering the correct knock code and when more than 10 wrong attempt..the phone dont even allow me to use my finger print to unlock..

almost need to do hard reset on my phone until i managed to input the correct knock... :p

This is what happen yesterday when I forgotten my knock code..

After 5th attempt...phone ask me to use biometric...and I accidentally place my finger wrongly on the sensor...the 6th attempt... System no longer give me other option to unlock except compulsory try the knock code....
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nay Tyzon:
I think that's all you get.

I was thinking I'd have a PIN and a knock code. But activating the knock code seems to be a "one or the other" choice so it "knocked out" *he he* the PIN. But I still have my fingerprint, voice, and facial unlocks.

However, I have my option ticked so that the knock is required upon reboot, so I gather that that's LG's idea of a master password I'd better not forget! Without it, my finger, voice, or face don't do squat.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheKnux:
I've noticed that you have to knock somewhat slowly. If you do it too fast, it doesn't register and locks you out. Make sure you don't knock more than 6 times when setting it up or else you're bound to forget it.
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] doki81:
yup...6 combinations really quite complicated... can't imagine why they take away the master pin option ..

and if you try more than 5 times with wrong knock...they only give you 1 chance to unlock with finger print~.. if you place your finger print on the edge and it didn't capture correctly...u are doom!

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Ronster1701:
Hi thanks for the add. I have just bought the Samsung dex and while it works on a tv thru hdmi cable. I have an old computer monitor sat there .I bought off eBay two leads one is the dvi to HDMI and a HDMI to monitor plug.

But when I use either it says there's no signal and won't launch dex.

Am I doing something wrong or can it only be HDMI tv to work ..

Hope you can help ..
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] RossTeagan:
Check this cables with a computer and see if you get any signal. Sometimes the issue lies with the cables, as they might be faulty.

The Dex could be outputting a resolution the monitoring doesn't like also.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] guhl99:
Hi,

[IMG="Chiron running Sailfish OS 2.1.3.7"]https://www.thinkthinkdo.com/g2ics/Screenshot_20180105_001_1.jpg[/IMG] [IMG="Chiron running Sailfish Os 2.1.3.7 Home"]https://www.thinkthinkdo.com/g2ics/Screenshot_20180105_002_1.jpg[/IMG]

This is a port of Sailfish OS to the Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 (aka chiron).

At the moment this is a very early state port.

Current state: Alpha 1

Download:

Sailfish OS Version 2.x (work in progress)

ROM lineage-14.1-20171229_174133-UNOFFICIAL-chiron.zip

Alpha 1: sailfishos-chiron-release-2.1.3.7-guhl180103.zip (current)

Installation:

Be warned. This will wipe all your data and you will get a very, very early user experience!

Remark: The installation of the correct LOS (14.1 for SF 2.x) image is only necessary once. So if you already did this the first time you can skip steps 1,2 and 5.2

1. Boot into fastboot mode and format the data partition using the command:

fastboot format userdata

2. Boot into your custom Android Recovery (TWRP) and make sure that the sdcard is mounted

3. Upload the LOS release:

adb push lineage-14.1-20171229_174133-UNOFFICIAL-chiron.zip /sdcard/

4. Upload Sailfish OS:

adb push sailfishos-chiron-release-2.1.3.7-guhl180103.zip /sdcard/

5. In the Recovery on the device:

5.1. Clear data and cache (factory reset)

5.2. Install the CM release by picking the CM image (this is needed so that the correct version of the binary libraries and firmware files are in place)

5.3. Install Sailfish OS by picking the SFOS image (this will take quite some time)

6. Reboot the device

After the initial boot the language selection and initial setup will show.

You have to skip the WLAN connection because there is no working WLAN or modem atm.

After that it will take a while and then the Jolla tutorial should come up. You can skip the tutorial if you want by clicking the corners of the screen in the following sequence: Top-Left, Top-Right, Bottom-Right, Bottom-Left.

Change-log:

Version 20180103

What works:

Telnet access via USB to the device on IP 192.168.2.15 and port 2323

ssh access for the user nemo after Remote connection is enabled in Developer tools in Settings

GUI

You can play Galaxy Attack if you enable the on screen controls as sensors do not work yet (click on top-right corner)

What does not work:

everything else

Well, on to the important stuff! Do bluetooth audio, proximity sensor, and VoLTE work!?!?!?

Just kidding. Cool that you're bringing Sailfish to this phone. Best of luck :)
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] guhl99:
Hehe!

Well atm still nothing works but hwcomposer (screen output) and touchscreen.

Porting for a device that has a 4.4 kernel (no Sailfish OS port is using such a recent kernel) and not even having the real kernel sources for the device is challenging.

But I wanted a challenging device for my 4th Sailfish OS port so nothing to complain.

I am making progress on the Wifi but i am still not there.

Alpha 1 -> Sailfish OS 2.1.3.7

Hi,

I released Alpha 1 and updated the OP.

See installation instructions and changelog in OP.

I can not press enough that this is Alpha 1. No Wifi, no modem, no sensors, no nothing. Only the Sailfish GUI user experience and you can play Galaxy Attack. Yes Galaxy Attack and that even in HD :)

The installation process will wipe your user data. So you better know how to backup/restore your stuff.

I would be happy if you give it a try but of course I understand that there is a lot to loose (but well, you get Galaxy Attack).

Wait, does this mean it's possible to Port Android 4.4?!
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] guhl99:
What do you mean by that.

Are you referring to Alian Dalvik that is running on Jolla Phones to run Android? Well yes that would be Android 4.4.

But Alien Dalvik won't be running on this Sailfish OS port anyway as it is a licensed closed source product that must not be installed on Sailfish OS ports.

Well whatever. I personally do not care for any kind of Android Version or Android anymore. Otherwise I would not use my time to port Sailfish OS to other phones.

Status is:

- we have a booting hybris-boot image and can telnet to the phone

- I completed building the android side (aka hybris-hal)

- yesterday night I built the first rom image but there was no time for flashing/testing ye.

Good news is: There is a second porter ( ghosalmartin ) also working on the phone so we have a bit more capacity this time.

Makes me not wanna buy the mix 3 but fortunately I'll still have my 2 and hopefully by then it'll be running sailfish. :)
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] guhl99:
Just to update you on the status:

The statement that we have a 8.0 kernel that is booting on the chiron was not totally correct.

We ran into a major roadblock as we did not enable CONFIG_VT in this kernel but the virtual terminal support is necessary for major Sailfish OS components like Systemd-pam and Wayland.

But if we enable CONFIG_VT in the current kernel sources for the chiron (and other 8.x devices) the kernel does not boot.

The phone reboots immediately in a very early stage where we have no chance for any kind of output.

So this is really hard to analyze/fix.

Until this is fixed the will be no running Sailfish OS (based on LOS15) for the chiron.

Ideas are welcome.

Not really a dev, but Google returns this question with no answer "If I compile an Android kernel with a virtual console by enabling the kernel configuration option CONFIG_VT (so I can see kernel messages during boot up), will the Android video driver still be able to take over and use the screen when it gets loaded (including the touch sensor)?"

Maybe problem is a conflict with the display driver? Any chance to dump the kernel log to disk?

Hi,

I would like to know if I'm missing anything with the crossporting method I've seen for MT67xx devices. I've been trying to port MIUI 9/MIUIpro9 ROMs from Redmi Note 2 (hermes, MT6795) for Jiayu S3 Advanced (MT6752) but I can't seem to make it boot.

I've tried following this step from @sandeep.sethi and it didn't work. I tried adding a modification with some of the .rc files in ramdisk because I saw that there are still

mount all/fstab.mt6795.rc

in them and replaced with

mount all/fstab.mt6752.rc

and it still didn't work. I tried reaching out to the "Flare X (Same chipset, hardware with Jiayu S3 Advanced)" team in their facebook group but they're not willing to share their porting method.

Is there any other MT67xx porting method I could try? I'd really want to port a MIUI 9 ROM for Jiayu S3 and I've exhausted every porting method I know and I still can't make it boot.

I've been porting ROMs for MT6753/35 devices and I tried somehow doing the same thing with Jiayu S3a (MT6752) and they won't work.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Holy Bear:
I recently acquired a HTC Universal for dirt cheap, and have found the first problem to explain the low price: Whenever I'm using a "power-hungry" application (TCPMP, Internet via Wi-Fi) it eventually just blacks out. Full shutdown without warning.

When trying to reactivate the unit, it reboots as if after a soft reset.

In fact, if I try to reactivate it too quickly, even the reboot fails.

None of the above happens when on external power.

This leads me to think that it's nothing worse than a battery that's lost its mojo, but since there is no warning about low battery, and when the reboot finishes successfully even SPB says the battery is somewhere around 70%, I want to run this by you guys.

What do you think? Just go get a new battery, or is there something else going on which will make buying a new battery just a waste of money?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] EvilJogga:
I'd say it's the battery, 99% sure.

I'ts gotten old and its voltage breaks down under load. If you have proper equipment and a glimpse of an idea what you're doing you should drain about 300mA from the battery and measure its output voltage.

You'll most likely see it going below 3.0V quickly.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Holy Bear:
I'm afraid I don't have that equipment, but all I really needed to hear was that it's probably the battery.

Now I can stop thinking about it and just order a new batery. :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] handroid:
Unexpected reboot - Apparently bettery issue

Hey Holybear, my device shows exactly same symptom, If possible let us know if bat replacement solved the issue>
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] cyberjak:
I knew I wasn't the only one withthat problem. I think i've prooved it to be a battery faultt. as if you taake te battery out after it gets to that stage where you just can not get it too complete a boot up without it shuttinng down again

take out battery ,place finer oveer all battery trmminals and plug inn your mainss charger it should now boot up and runn fin off the charger unless your finger slips off the battery terminals. thisshsowws it's the temprature sensor in the battery.

I posted a more in depth reply to a guy in the wm6 threads as wifi heeaating up battery wass shutting off his device as well
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] EvilJogga:
@ cyberjak

Hmm, the idea that a temperature sensor in the battery causes this problems is interesting. I'd just expect the device not being cappable of rebooting instantly, because there should be a hysteresis implemented in the battery's protection circuit.

I had the exact same problems and described them elsewhere, but in my case it surely wasn't an issue of temperature.

I'd suggest to take out the battery and wait about an hour for the device and the battery to cool off. Most likely the battery will then take a complete boot but shut down soon after that - without having gotten near to "warm" yet.

If this happens you can be sure that the battery itself is dead without needing to measure anything.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Holy Bear:
Okay, to tell you what I tried:

I ran the Universal until it spontaneously went dead.

Started bootlaoder to see how much longer it would work on that. Was a bit longer, what with low energy consumption, but soon even that wouldn't stay on for long.

Then decided to try the "old wives' tale" (meaning I don't know whether there's any sense behind it or not) of putting the battery in the freezer for a little while.

When I took it out and let it get back to normal temp, I plugged it in and after a while booted the Universal. It showed 40% battery, lower than it had ever gotten lately.

Recharged for a full day.

Tried TCPMP: went dead after three minutes.

So in my experience the above didn't help battery performance. :p

Am going to get a new battery in a few days; I'll keep you posted on progress as I try with a fresh battery.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Rc-Blob:
I had the same problem, whenever i did something cpu intensive, it would just black out.

I just bought a new 3100mAh battery. Best thing i ever did. It might be thicker now with the new battery, but it actually feels more comfortable as a phone. Plus the new battery only cost 13 odd quid, so definately well worth it. Oh and it doubles the battery life (3100/1500 = ~2... duh)

Hope that helps. :)

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Holy Bear:
I ordered a regular battery replacement, but maybe I'll add a 3100mAh as well.

I could use it as a media player during long train trips. :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] EvilJogga:
I revived two batteries by intense cycling to work quite well again. They still black out at 20%, but only under extreme load (active gsm connection, active wifi, bluetooth and having to render a webpage).

But you should be able to discharge them below 25% at least. Else they're most certainly "too dead" already. And you should do at least 3-4 cycles.

My guess would be that the freezer finished your battery off. I don't understand how this method should work anyway, as lower temperatures reduce the time affected capacity loss. Actually the best place to store a LiPo or LIo battery is the fridge, charged about half the way.

But I also ordered two 3100mAh batteries. I'm using the Uni as a laptop replacement and the permanent wifi usage together with some cpu load and the backlight kicks the battery's ass quite hard.

In Germany the China 3100mAhs are overpriced and it's hard to get your hands on an external charger, but on Ebay.co.uk there's a seller that offers battery and charger as a bundle for about 15€. This will give me a solid 6000+mAh per day and should be enough to forget about virtually every setting related to power consumption :D
