Also if you want to try my build of the Snapdragon optimized browser that I optimized for kryo cores you can get it here. It's based on Chromium 63.0.3112.

One more thing, if you want to change the icon shape in the stock launcher you need to turn Developer Settings off then back on and the option will show up. I'll try to fix without recompiling the apk.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Soooperstar:
Can we flash this over the old build or should it be fresh?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xanaxdroid:
I'm always going to tell you to clean flash, but unless I say otherwise it should be okay to dirty flash. Just don't report problems unless they are on a clean build.

Whenever I try using adb or advanced restart to reboot to the bootloader or recovery, it just reboots the phone back to the system, I can only reboot to recovery when the phone is off and I do it manually, any fix?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xanaxdroid:
If there was a fix it would have been in the release I just posted. It will be fixed when I get to it.

If I am coming from a totally stock fresh install of the latest January 8.1 what would I need to do to install. Boot TWRP 3.2.0.0, then do I factory wipe? Wipe system? After just make sure it's slot A and I should be good? I had some weird issues when I previously tried and I don't know exactly what caused them.

Thanks!

Edit: Just saw your post from the 26th, gonna try that out tomorrow. Cheers.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] bkkzak:
Ya I followed his post from the 26th exactly, except I didn't flash TWRP or Magisk initially. Only way I could get it to work (I literally tried reflashing 7 or 8 times till I got it to work). Follow those instructions thru the rom flash, then boot system and setup. Then reboot bootloader, boot TWRP, flash TWRP, boot into system. Then reboot recovery, flash Magisk and boot into system.

Im a noob. I downloaded three different zips.

update.zip

update_data_full_.zip

update_full_BLN-L24_hw_usa.zip

What one do i extract the files from?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Sreekantt:
did u erase vendor, product too ??

if u did- u need huawei update extractor which is mentioned in above link(I personally didn't try this tool - so can't comment on that)

i don't have same model number but this following method works most probably if u haven't messed so much or didn't clear vendor or product

extract one of the large file which u downloaded(probably around 1.5gigs) and place d extracted files in 'dload' folder on sd card

hold 3 buttons at a same time- may be it starts installing

[MENTION=6714681]shashank1320[/MENTION] could guide u in more exact direction.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] shashank1320:
[MENTION=7042702]sreekantt[/MENTION] Thanks for tag.

So [MENTION=4856002]BakedOnSomeSour[/MENTION] you have already downloaded 3 files. Now, extract all 3 separately and see which all contains update.app file (mostly it will be in 1st and 2nd zip file)

Now, use dload method given here- https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=73954487&postcount=240

Extract the 1st file, put the content in dload folder, flash.

extract 2nd file, put the content in dload folder, flash.

If, 3rd file contains the update.app, extract and flash this also.

hope this will be solved.

800ma - charging

900 ma - charging slowly

500 ma -charging slowly

1200 ma - charging slowly

1800 ma - charging slowly

anyone else have similar on their devices?

maybe its my old possibly dead battery or is it a bug ?

btw testes with follow chargers:

samsung original

samsung (very old)

LG

[LineageOS Questions & Answers] Exabyter:
On my OnePlus One running CyanogenOS (Marshmallow) it displays "charging quickly" when plugged into an appropriate charger.

On my LG G4 (h811) running LOS 14.1 (Nougat), it never ever displays "charging quickly" despite the fact that the G4 supports Qualcomm QuickCharge (the OPO does not) even when using certified QuickCharge chargers.

So I have assumed for a while now that this is an LOS issue of some kind. (When I used to use the original LG-provided Android build on the G4, the "charging quickly" notification worked fine)
[Mobile Ad Networks] coheed22:
Hi ive decided to take google adsense for a spin on my website... But before I do I just have one question...

1. Do they just send you the money that you earned to you house?

2. Are you/ Can you ever be charged for anything, resulting in you having to pay somthing to them?

Thanks for your help

c22
[Mobile Ad Networks] Soup Dragon:
they send mine to my bank account or they can send a cheque, no you don't get charged for anything. you have to earn $100 before they send anything. AND don't click the ads from your pc, they will spot it and ban you.
[Mobile Ad Networks] coheed22:
How long does it take to get to 100$? And does it count if the same person else clicks on two different ads on seperate days?
[Mobile Ad Networks] gthing:
How long does it take to get $100?? Well you DO realize that you are paid PER click. So if you're talking about a time period, it would be a function of how many people are visiting your site and what percentage of those people are clicking on the ads. There is no timer. I have sites that have earned $100 in a single day and sites that haven't earned $100 in several months.

About your other question - Google has pretty advanced system for figuring out if clicks are fraudulent. Their value as a company depends on it. So in the aggregate of scenarios you could ask yourself "is this happening fraudulently?" and if the answer is "yes" then Google will probably figure it out.

More importantly - do you think adsense is the best way to monetize your site? Have you considered any other avenues?

You know that lbdroid's dashcam app actually runs on a raspberry pi, connecting to a daemon running on the unit?

As the CustomRom still contains the same kernel, you still can't use 3rd part dashcam and still need the RPI solution.

This is awesome. Pretty excited to see where this heads. How do the OK Google from any screen work? On the stock Joying ROM it messes up the bluetooth calling function by making the person who gets called hear fax like sounds. Is it possible to install any of the Joying apps?

Need assistance removing signature verification in services.jar... Anyone good at that?
[Android Head-Units] surfer63:
There is an Xposed module for it: https://xdaforums.com/xposed/modules/xposed-disablesignaturecheck-t2783480

And there should even be a 2nd xposed module for it: Lucky Patcher: https://www.gammerson.com/2015/11/download-lucky-patcher-for-marshmallow.html

Did you know that?

Edit: Malaysk has Lucky Patcher also in his PX5 ROM: https://dl.xda-developers.com/4/1/3....png?key=nflCh5ftX5SlRs4WzXdW-w&ts=1515527420

(I remembered having seen it somewhere). This might also mean he did not at all remove the signature check from services.jar (which is a horrible solution anyway when looking to security)

===================

I had a look this guide (https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2458144) to know where to remove the signature check, but the second part is no longer correct for Android 6.

Anyway, as the ROM is odexed we first need to deodex the services.odex to create a complete services.jar

Download baksmali-2.2.2.jar and smali-2.2.2.jar from https://bitbucket.org/JesusFreke/smali/downloads/

Extract the entire framework folder from the 5009_60.zip and put it "somewhere".

Copy the *smali*jars next to the framework folder

As the ROM is odexed we first need to deodex the services.odex (as the services.jar is only 310 bytes)

java -jar baksmali-2.2.2.jar deodex framework/oat/x86/services.odex -b framework/x86/boot.oat -o services

This will put the deodexed files in folder services

Then we ***should*** be able to remove the signature check by editing the smali(s), but I don't know how to completely do that.

At the end, if we managed to edit the correct smali(s) we need to assemble the services.jar again.

We do that with

java -jar smali-2.2.2.jar assemble services -o services.jar

This will give us a 5.4MB services.jar

But we miss the most important part: editing of the signatures part.

I put this here in case someone might not know how to deodex jars/apks (I do), but maybe does know how to remove the signature check (I don't)

Check the guides section. You can root the h910 all the way up to 10r which is the latest firmware available. It's the how to root h910 guide by runningnak3d. Walks you through the entire process. Since you don't have an active ATT sim the only way to update is to root and install zips through twrp. The process is pretty straight forward and requires flashing another variants kdz and then using dirtysanta to get an unlocked bootloader and flash twrp.

If you remove AOD plugins from priv app. this bug does not happen because AOD refreshes the hw lights every time.

essentially wipe all, then restore the backup you posted without radio (not doing supersu), then dalvik wipe?
