Dear all, i found a question that it seems that 18:9 full screen display mobile phones are becoming more and more popular, such as Samsung S8, Elephone S8, Umidigi S2 Pro, what is the reason?

The future smart phones screen size will all adopt 18:9?
[General Topics] myefox.it:
thank you
[General Topics] R324D:
I prefer 16:9 display.
[General Topics] Will.gamble:
I prefer it as well!
[General Topics] ObliviousEnigma:
My phone's a 5.5in or 6.5in and that's about as big as I'll ever go (Alcatel Idol One Touch 3)!

It's a perfect harmonious balance between viewing size (thin edges; Large surface area) and being able to fit in my shallow pockets.

Unfortunately: I do not know the actual aspect ratio you're asking for.
[General Topics] myefox.it:
i just want to know is this size is best for people to watch? why not 20:9 or something else
[General Topics] ObliviousEnigma:
The convenience of stuffing it readily into your pocket right as your manager cuts the corner to seeing you on your phone as you briefly text your sweetheart FAR out-weighs a slightly larger viewing space. :)

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] batham33:
Hey guys.

Recently got a 2nd hand s5 and tried to clean it so i could start new. As far as i know the phone is STOCK and hasnt been rooted at all. I also dont think USB Debugging ahas been enabled but more on that later. So i booted the phone into recovery (pwr+vol up+home) and selected the 5th option "wipe data/factory reset." This seemed like it was completed sucessfully so i rebooted the system. Upon this first restart the phone would not go boot past the samsung logo.

I tried all the options on the recovery menu but nothing has worked.

I have tried to install TWEP but without developer access odin fails

I read that flashing a stock firmware to the phone does not need dev access. However the spam download pages I get always time out before the 1.4gb download finishes

I am not too familiar with rooting phones so i am cautious to try anything else. I have read other solutions and will prepare them incase nothing else works

I have a G900FXXS1CQB4 and can provide any info that i can get to on a softbricked phone

Any information/advice/abuse would be welcome
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbsc:
First, you should consider that the first boot after factory reset takes 10-12 min., so be patient. But it should not take more than 20 min.

Second, you did not say what S5 variant you have. The truth is written in Odin (Download) mode in the "Product name" line.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] batham33:

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] ztrund:
I was able to get rooted and switch to SuperSU on Fire OS 5.6.0.0 by following this guide. I used the google mirror for kingoroot pc since the link on their website is dead. After installing and opening kingoroot pc, it asked me if I wanted to update. I did that and it updated to 1.5.6. I followed the guide for everything else. I don't know if it works on any other fire tablets since I only have the Fire 10 7th Gen. Hopefully it works for y'all.

E: Based on the replies, it seems like it works on HD 10's only. :(
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] Supersonic27543:
CONGRATULATIONS!!! :good: Got to try this. Looks too good to be true :cool::laugh:
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] devilotx:
This could be good... have to try it.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] DVBMan:
Not working.

Edit: Seems to work for many HD 10. Unfortunately not for mine.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] Supersonic27543:
Should have guessed that :( .If that doesn't work for 5.3.2.0 why would it work for 5.6.0.0? :crying:
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] mustang_52:
Everytime i goto remove root from kingroot, it reboots.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] Supersonic27543:
If we can get to that point, can't we use the root accessed ADB shell to push su and BusyBox to system/bin and push SuperSU.apk to system/app for getting root?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] retyre:
Rooting works as in OP

Device: HD 10 (2017) that came with 5.4.1.0 (updates blocked on router)

Like the OP, I was able to root using KingoRoot. Next, I followed the guide to unroot, install SuperSU, and remove KingoRoot. The only "challenge" I encountered was with the unrooting using KingoRoot. After a couple of reboots and rerooting, I realized the instructions call for unrooting using the PC app (not the unrooting option within the Android app).
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] Dan_firehd:
Would you please be more specific as to how you use PC app for unrooting?

Thank you.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] mustang_52:
That was where I was going wrong! Once i Unrooted via pc app I was able to achieve root! Thank you!
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] retyre:
Just as you did to root with KingoRoot, run the KingoRoot app on your PC and connect the tablet when prompted. Once recognized, you will be presented with an "unroot" option (don't remember the exact title of the option, but it should be obvious). Click on it and wait for it to complete (you will see a confirmation dialog on the tablet as well).

Make sure you have an active shell prompt with su before you unroot.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] obvious:
Just tried a couple of times for the hell of it on Fire HD 8 7th gen on 5.4.0.1 (or 5.4.1.0 cant remember) but it failed.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] DragonFire1024:
Tried on HD 8 (2016) 5.4.0.0 and failed.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] jeff.p:
kingoroot gave "root failed" on HD 8 Generation 7 5.6.0.0

--edited for clarity
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] Supersonic27543:
What do you mean by 'failed'?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] Lumute:
Root failed for me too for a Fire 8 HD 7th gen :(
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] ztrund:
Based on the replies, it seems like it works on HD 10's only, which would make sense cause they have different SOCs this gen and firmware is probably a bit different. :(

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Proto732:
Throughout a day I charge my Tilt from a variety of sources: the stock charger, my old Apache's charger, my PC, car charger, my Moto headset charger ...

Looking at them all the only difference I see listed is the amperage.

The Stock charger is 1Amp, so is the Apache's

The Moto charger is 550mA

iGo Charger is 1.5Amp

no idea what the PC or the car charger output is.

I am assuming that the differences in amperage would simply effect how quickly the battery charges to full. Is that correct?

Maybe also that a fully depleted battery would need a full 1Amp charger to begin charging ... the 550mAmp might not cut it for a fully depleted battery.

Would charging with a lower amp charger (550mA) or a higher amp charger (1.5A) have any long term negative impact on the charging or overall battery life?

Just curious ...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] XtreMe_G:
batteryuniversity.com

telll us wat u learn
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] RemE:
The amp rating is the normal maximum current that can flow from the particular charger. They all are spec'd to put out a regulated 5V but the current comes into play if you are using the phone at the same time as charging. If the phone draws more than the charger can supply then it's going to take longer to charge or may not fully charge. Normal charger is 1A and with that the phone can be used most likely at the same time. With a 550ma charger I'd turn the phone off (standby) to ensure a full charge in a reasonable time.

None should affect battery life, just time to reach full. The charge lite on the phone is your guide, when it's amber, it's charging, green it's full, simple as that.

The only thing that will harm the lithium is to take the phone to dead for long periods, that's the hardest thing on a lithium.

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] vonbothmer:
I have a PX3 from XRC with 7.1.2 which I flashed with Malaysk rom which worked great for about a week, then the radio totally died. No stations are found, auto search does not work and no audio from radio at all (not even static radio noice). I reflashed stock firmware and MCU but radio is still not working..

[YOUTUBE]6lNP8Xocpp0[/YOUTUBE]

I have seen some videos stating the MCU config might be the problem in some way (YT video example) where the radio has been selected wrong or defaulted for some reason, the problem is that under "Radio" in "Factory Settings" I can't select any radio chip as in the video but only "YES" or "NO".

1. The "Factory Settings" option in settings, is this an APK or where are the options (not values!) / GUI stored? I tried flashing a old MCU for XRC but the options of only YES and NO persists so my assumption is that the GUI is stored in a read-only part of MCU (or XRC has removed them in all of their MCU updates).

2. Is there any other way of changing the MCU values with custom values? Another tool?

3. Anyone have any other idea what can be wrong and maybe how to fix it? The seller has stopped responding so I am on my own here..

Thanks for the help!
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] volker64:
I had the same problem a few weeks ago. I solved it that way. Factory Settings (Code 126) Then to the rider radio, there the frequenz swap. I changed from Germany to China. Since then it is fine again. I hope that help you. Sorry for the bad Englisch . Google translate :)
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] vonbothmer:
Yeah I have already tried that, switching radio present country does not help. Changed to China, save, restart, reset, then same thing to EU. No difference..

If anyone has a XRC config file for Android 7.1.2 with working radio I would be really thankful if anyone could send it to me ?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] tbmiso:
i will send you pictures from settings
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] vonbothmer:
Please do but I can't think of anything that would work.

"Radio = YES"

"Radio region = EU"

=

No radio. :(

Here is a list of original factory settings for XRC. Now I am on xrc 2.71 (or 2.72...i dont remember) and new4_px3_7.1(20171102) and setting still works. I have never install Malaysk's firmwares - only the originals from the seller. I have only changed the tab 'VOICE' (to increase system sounds to 20)

View attachment 4360227
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] vonbothmer:
Thank you for the photos but my settings are almost identical.

I also use 2.71 MCU since yesterday and it still does not work. It won't search for radiostations and I hear no radio noice at all. The only thing I can think of is that it is a hardware failure..

The file "new4_px3_7.1" also works for XRC then?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] tbmiso:
Yes, all updates in past 4 months works ok ( only new4_px3_7.1......, not malaysk's....). I am always updating the mcu and px2 firmware. It looks like hardware error....
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Kayhan 17#:

Hi,

In DMESG. - [mtc @@@ radio chip not detected]

Wonder if there is a hardware or i2c issue?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] marchnz:
Just looking at the schematic, the designers of these units use a novel supply arrangement with two linear voltage regulators - one 7809 9v reg. Feeding a 7805 5v regulator.

These regulators get hot. Suggest testing with a voltmeter to see if the Radio module is receiving +5v.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Kayhan 17#:
Obvious keyword xD

and i was looking and thinking in a way like "MD725" etc.

However i will take a look at the Radio Module if its the area where the antenna goes in and come back here =)
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] mixcat:
It looks like I have the same issue.

I bought a radio on Amazon

Android 7.1.2

Its a PX3 MCU version loaded now is MTCD_XRC_V2.54a_1 Jun 16 2017

I have two issues with the radio and im hoping to get some guidance from an expert.

The voice to text don;t work, I tried everything to get the mic to pickup but it dont. I even got an external mic to no avail.

If I do a bluetooth call people can hear me, I seen some others on this XDA forum but couldnt find a fix for it.

The other issue is the tuner / radio dont work. Just static and picks up nothing.

I contacted Amazon and they pointed me to the Hizpo website but there is no contact info.

I tried a couple of the downloads here to no avail. Any ideas on this issue?

Again, thanks so much for your time and help.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] katalinscrob:
Anyone fixed this annoying radio crash? Same problem, radio dead. Played with different mcu versions, none of them respawned radio again... is there any tool to diagnose the comm to the radio module or manually select it from a list of tda's? Thanks for your input!
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] tedstur:
Same exact problem

My radio is completely dead, no sound whatsoever on this px3.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Kayhan 17#:
The reason my radio did not work is/was that i had the USBtoUART Adapter plugged in and wired to MCU, and the RX/TX wires are the ones also going to Radio Module.

So when i unplug the USBtoUART Module, my radio works again, you guys may need to trace or possible bridge that 4700ohm resistor coming from MCU to Radio module test wise

EDIT: here i found my old picture and marked in green

set a default SIM card for SMS messages, suddenly when I was left with only one SIM card, the adb command does not work anymore.

If I set the default to "1", I cannot send any messages either with the HTC or Google app, if I set it to "null" then it only works with the

According to this report Honor 8, Honor 8 Pro and Honor 7X will get the Oreo update soon :)

http://www.news18.com/news/tech/hon...-to-get-android-oreo-update-soon-1600563.html

Honor smartphones including Honor 8, Honor 8 Pro will soon be receiving Android Oreo update in an upcoming version of Honor's in-house operating system - EMUI, running on the smartphones. As per sources, the smartphones are next in line after the Huawei sub-brand rolled out the Android Oreo update for its two other offerings, the Honor 9 and the Honor V9.

Along with Honor 8 and Honor 8 Pro, the recently-launched Honor 7X will also receive the Oreo update soon. Though the Chinese smartphone manufacturer has not disclosed the timeline for the update, it is expected to be delivered to the Honor devices by the end of December 2017. Honor has already rolled out the EMUI 8.0 based on Android Oreo for Honor 9 and Honor V9.

Once these smartphones receive the Oreo update, the smartphones will have picture-in-picture mode, notification channels, notification dots, smart text selection, and more such features.
