[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 [Mediatek] ROMs, Kernels, Reco] ranstar:
Kernel sources will not help with rom developement.We need to do alot changes in android sources to make work audio,ril,omx codecs,camera and more,so we'll never get stable rom even with kernel source.

Also we need blobs source,because i've successfully fixed fingerprint for android 6,but in 7.0 its doesnt work because blobs(camera and goodix) are not compatible with 7.0+

And sorry for my english...

Is this still undergoing development?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 [Mediatek] ROMs, Kernels, Reco] hole_done_it:
Hi, So I think I have correctly identified my chipset as I thought I had a snapdragon as advertised when I bought it but it must be the mediatek version.

Anyways I have previously installed a v new version of LineageOS (20) recently unofficial on my last phone, a xiaomi mi max, another different model of phone, but it had problems with calls. So when I look at LineageOS for this Redmi Note 4X Mediatek the LineageOSs here don't look that stable.

So I am looking for two features

1) Stability

2) Security and Pirvacy, just like the LineageOS, that had SE linux kernel I believe.

So I am looking at Resurrection Remix.

-->> * Problem is is there a difference between Project x aosp RR & RR ?

The thread for the former title appears closed.

Is there a difference and would this custom Rom fulfill my needs?

I don't want Gapps. I read somewhere that aosp is in a sense "stock" minus the gapps.

For me gapps would defeat the purpose of a custom rom for my needs right now which is to degoogle my phone and make it more secure or privacy enhanced in that sense. My phone is not transmitting data round the clock if you get my drift or point.

What custom rom can I be looking at ?

RR is one I am looking at or considering. Should it fulfill those needs my needs ? And is there a difference between these two RRs with different names?

The bootloader appears to be unlocked. Mi Account said unlocked, mi flash unlock tool said unlocked when I went to unlock it, (there was no oem toggle in developer options) and adb fastboot said unlocked.

So it is just a matter of choosing the right Rom at this stage.

Thanks.
[Sprint HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Emmawii:
I just bought what was meant to be a new factory unlocked HTC 10 online but it's actually half-rooted phone that was Sprint branded. As in Malwarebytes and Android Pay claim it's rooted but Root Checker says it's not rooted properly.

I'm also unable to open any free apps that require rooting (i.e., Titanium back up, Super SU), and checking for the latest Android software on my phone has a never-ending busy signal. Thus, I'm unable to wait for update to Oreo when it's released in a few months to unroot the noob way? I'm currently running Nougat.

I'd prefer the phone to be unrooted but I guess my concern is that if I revert the phone back I may not able to use the phone as it may be locked to Sprint? (I'm an Australian user). Is there anyway I can check this with the phone the way it is at the moment? If I just leave the phone not rooted correctly what issues will I run into while using the phone for next few years? What convenience apps (besides Android Pay) won't work?

Note: I'm also not keen on returning the phone as it's too much hassle and don't have a decent back up phone.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] The MBG:
Long-time G2 owner, who loved things like the rear buttons, knock-on etc. I'd been running CloudyG2 for sometime and begrudgingly admitted I needed something newer due to lag and other things.

Out of everything this year the G6 seemed best suited, although TBH nothing majorly stood out. So I got one last week.

Clearly the screen is an upgrade over the G2 for contrast, colours, light-bleed. Mine is a let down for uneven brightness and more.

I typically had the G2 at 40%, which worked well for me. The screen was not perfect, but nothing you'd notice in everyday usage. Although more recently there is some minor marking you'll see on grey backgrounds.

Around 37% seems to be my brightness sweetspot with the G6. However, I initially noticed some dynamic contrast effects, which I guess is normal micro-dimming, while browsing. When I looked closer I spotted the centre of the screen is noticeably brighter (large coin size). Or, alternatively, the surrounding area is noticeably darker. I did a full check using bleed testing app and it was obvious to an untrained eye at brightnesses under 65% when using a white background.

What's more, there also looks like there's a slight pressure problem too. As pressing on a black background, over 65% you can see a brief mark in the top quarter of the screen, even when pressing lower down. Minor, but there.

So I'm trying to get an idea, if I were to a replacement, whether a degree of unevenness is normal with the handset. I don't want my quality control expectations to be beyond reasonable. I'm not a great AMOLED fan, so I appreciate typical LCD issues can't be completely avoided.

Admittedly, as you've probably guessed, I haven't instantly connected with the G6 like with the G2. So it won't be a total bind to send it back.
[Sony Xperia XZ1  Questions & Answers] IceDale:
Hello all, have a question about my new XZ1 have it for two days now.

Hi all,

I am now trying to unlock my MDA Vario 3. I have followed the unlock thread upto where it asks me to enter my 8 digit code, which I have.

the problem being is it just sits on checking SIM lock status and doesn't actually ask me for the digits. I see there is a different app posted in the thread but when I try and extract that it shows an empty folder. HELP!!!!

[Android Head-Units] millybug:
Thought i'd post my experience after a few days of pain in order that it might help someone else. XDA forum was complex in info but couldn't have been more valuable. I'll reference helpful posts below.

Car:Kia Sorento 2010

Head Unit: Pumpkin Android CN10

Android version: 6.01

Processor: quadcore-R16

Model / SKU: CN10-02201b-02A

Model is no longer available on amazon.

After a few weeks of use all the apps stopped launching and just returned to the home screen. Radio (UK) was dropping out every 30 seconds. The time never stayed set and changing it seems to have a bug that affects the system. Thats as much as I got from pumpkin forums. The weird thing was that there was no MCU info on the about screen.

So contacted Pumpkin who provided firmware updates. I would have thought it possible for manufacturers to track products, hardware and firmwares in a version control system but they insist on email 1-1 with firmware upgrades as solutions- but that's another story.

First round of firmware seemed to have bricked it - it was stuck in a boot loop or not booting at all. 3-4 firmware updates via some frosty email exchanges and its still stuck on boot with android logo.

Thats taken 7 days. Ouch

Then managed to find this thread https://xdaforums.com/android-auto/android-head-units/allwinner-r16-astard7-android-6-0-1-t3523906

Since it mentioned the 'Allwinner quad core R16' i assumed it was relevant to this unit due to the chip info above. Since the unit was going back for a refund i didn't worry too much about screwing it up further.

So i took the rar file link from here:

KED1 (MEDEKE?) firmware (thanks):

V7.3.1_20170720.152039_KED1

"V7.3.2_20170826.102252_KED1.rar"

unpacked it on to sdcard:

81cb828c-9b57-11e6-ad2a-df6786178d62

827ba428-9b57-11e6-8dfb-37398ea70e52.0

827ba428-9b57-11e6-8dfb-37398ea70e52.1

827ba428-9b57-11e6-8dfb-37398ea70e52.2

Instead of doing what pumpkin said installing one file at a time on sdcard i put them all on root of card altogether and ran the upgrade. To my surprise everything installed OK. Rebooted and its working.

I'm pretty sure Pumpkin have no idea what they are doing with firmware as their forum seems littered with apologies for wrong firmware. Maybe they do . Luckily i have flashed a few roms and persevered with some success. The interface is different from factory settings but I now have a fully functioning radio , bluetooth, and installable sat nav app (map.me).

Some questions lingering in my mind.

1. Is this a eonon base unit?

2. Is there any core factory reset available?

3. Should i try and update the MCU to a newer version as listed in the post above?

4. How can I make a back up of my working settings?

5. Can i get any other GUI updates?

Hope this helps someone else with a CN10 R16 unit

Thanks for all the hardwork mods and devs do thru this forum too.
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] kullerhamPster:
Hi,

I'm using a Nokia 8 since yesterday. Setup went well, it directly downloaded and installed Android 8.0.

Everything seemed fine, until I noticed that some of my contacts (synced from my Google account) were missing. I tried virtually everything to make them appear:

Invoke the sync manually

Delete data of both the contacts app and the contact storage app

Reset the phone to factory defaults

Export, delet, and re-import all contacts from my Google account

None of this made the missing contacts appear on my phone.

It seems that the contacts affected are (mostly) those which are also linked to a Google+ account. I removed the link to the Google+ profile from three, and afterwards, these contacts appeared on my phone. However, I don't want to do this manually for every contact, and I also found at least one with no link to Google+ who is also not synced.

Oddly enough, I also have a Pixel C running Android 8 with exactly the same version of the contacts app and no sync problems whatsoever.

Does anyone have the same problem or at least some idea what might be causing it or how to solve it? I'm about to return the phone while it is still possible, though I really like it so far apart from this issue. :(
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] rob61280:
I'm having the same issue under 7.1.1 on a new Nokia 8. Sorry this isn't much help, I'm hoping the issue will be Google sync related, and rectify itself.

My friends Nokia 8 is not having this issue.
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] rob61280:
I found a workaround, but it's could be tedious if you have lots of unsync'd contacts.

I loaded up my contacts list in a browser ( https://contacts.google.com ) and on my phone, then manually identified the contacts that had not sync'd.

In the browser I added a character to any field for each of the contacts that failed to sync. Those contacts then immediately appeared on my phone.

Most of the contacts that gave me issues had Google+ profiles. It's pain in the backside, and you shouldn't need to do this, but it does seem to work.
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] kullerhamPster:
Thank you for you reply. I feel relieved not to be the only one having such problems. I can also confirm that the problems seems to relate to Google+ profiles.

I found out that several people are reporting this problem in the app reviews: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts (at least here in Germany). So it seems this is a bug that was introduced with some update of the app - and hopefully will be fixed soon...
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] kullerhamPster:
I just reset my phone (again), and now all contacts seem to be synced.

I don't think it has to do with the reset (as this wasn't of any effect before), perhaps Google just fixed the issue...
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] rob61280:
I'm glad you've resolved the issue with your phone. It's a really nice piece of hardware. I hope you enjoy it.
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] kullerhamPster:

---------- Post added at 11:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:33 PM ----------

For anyone who is following the thread and having the same problem, the solution seems to be to clear contacts storage, this isn't the same as clearing data on the contacts app.

After getting a missed call the phones starts acting very weird , the home button does not work so does the multitasking button,the screen wont rotate, the auto brightness stops working and defaults to the middle, YouTube auto pauses for no reason.

Cause/Steps to recreate the issue

if i get a missed call the issues stars to appear even if it is a whatsapp call, the auto brightness and YouTube auto pause just appends regular.

What I've tried so far to resolve the issue

i have tried to wipe the cache, turn off some bloatware apps even i have restore my phone and it fixed the problem for a week.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mufrad:
Maybe you didn't flash the rom properly, go to the rom thread and read instructions provided by the OP. Also if you did follow the instructions and still it's happening it would be better for you to post it on that thread so that others using the same rom can help you out or the developer can help you out.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teddy Lo:
It seems that you didn't install Gapps on your device so that way you can't open any of apps.

Try to install gapps.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Asheque2105:
I have installed both gapps and the custom rom. I am able to download all the apps off the playstore but they don't run when I try to open them.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teddy Lo:
Okay , I think that gapps is not compatible or you didn't format :

-Dalvik / ART Cache

-Cache

-Data

-System

If still not working maybe your device is using J200G Exynos Processor and the custom rom are created for Qualcomm processor , so I read that it won't work for all J3 series . What is full Model of your device and what version of Lineage OS you are using ?

flash the TWRP and Magisk, you have a rooted device.

TWRP Credits to [MENTION=3873953]eng.stk[/MENTION]

Magisk Credits to [MENTION=4470081]topjohnwu[/MENTION]

while updating your ROM,

Flash the FULL ROM ZIP

Wipe Dalvik Cache and Cache

Flash Masgik

to be on the safer side, reboot.

backup stock kernel

flash the custom kernel

you will continue to get the OTAs but in FULL ZIPs, not in Incremental Updates.

Nice video. Perhaps the phone portions could zoom in a little more, but you mention in the video links but I didn't see them. It would be helpful in your first post to have the links to adb/fb, recommended twrp, and magisk. That will save N00b from hunting around for the drivers and packages. Also when I make videos I tend to stay away from version numbers because they are always changing, that is why it's easier to update in the post, unless you expect to keep updating the video. HTH
