Hi.

What is the correct or most appropriate way to partition a microSDHC UHS-I card 16GB for mobile phone Sony Xperia C2105?

I already partitioned with Apps2SD Pro this way:

* Partition 1: Fat32 - 6847 Mb

* Partition 2: ext2 - 6846 Mb

* Partition 3: swap - 1500 Mb

Is it correct in this way?

Many thanks in advance.

Hi,

I just installed this app on my fire 7 2019 edition tablet, this tablet has very low end specifications, so I thought this app might help with the memory usage on my tablet. My biggest issue is that I'm not exactly sure as to how to use this app, and if it's actually what I'm looking for to help me speed up my tablet. Does anyone know if this will be of any help to me or not? I do have a micro sd card installed in my tablet, but it's only a class 10. I've read on some site's that to properly utilize a micro sd card on this tablet that it needs to be a class A2 type.

Hi, I just downloaded the new factory images and attempted to use the flash-all.sh script to flash them to my Pixel 2. However, it seems to hang on the step "sending 'vendor_b' (355432 KB)...". After waiting about 10 minutes, I unplugged the device and attempted to boot, which unsurprisingly failed. Then I tried switching the active boot slot to a and it gets stuck at "sending 'vendor_a' (355432 KB)...".

Any suggestions?

Note: I was rooted with Magisk before attempting to update.

I want to use samsung pay on it, from what i am reading i need to flash it with a UK version of the firmware.

Just a couple questions to put my mind at ease

A. Will I need a UK sim card available after the flashing (im in the US and only have my ATT one available)

[General Questions and Answers] Ian Barton:
This will probably be long a story so strap yourself in, it's going to be a bumpy ride.

My name is Ian, I have just turned 15 this Christmas and I have been in long term foster care for 8 years now and have been with the same family in the same village the whole time. I have 2 of the greatest friends I have ever had in my life. But for the past year I have begun to lose one of them to drugs. His name is Chris, his sister is called Eloise and I have been in love with her for the last three years I have known Chris. And for the past 4/5 months we have had been going out, now Eloise has anxiety and depression which I love about her because I wanted to impact her and help her to overcome these mental illnesses. I hate to see her cry so I always tried to make her smile by telling her funny stories or stupid jokes. Eloise's family do not have much money at the moment and her brother Chris used to joke about them being poor so to make Eloise smile I used to do this to but it really upset her which I was not aware of as I do not think before I speak. Things like this have been building up, me not being aware that I'm being rude towards her family when I'm trying to make her smile and tonight she broke up with me.

Recently it has been decided that I am to move foster homes as it is not working anymore and I'm not bored about leaving the family behind, I'm bothered about leaving my friends behind, they are the only people that get me and I don't want to leave Eloise behind either as my heart feels so connected to her still as we are still close friends. I cannot bring myself to leave all of this behind and I leave in a week.

Does anyone know what to do or has anyone gone through any similar situations and could give me some advice that would help me mentally as I feel like trash. I'm also a cutter so I may have to resort back to that if I'm not feeling better, I felt like I needed to get this out.

Thank you for reading this, if you read this all thank you. And if you can give any advice on how to cope through this then that would be very much appreciated thank you.
[General Questions and Answers] ginger709:
Hello everyone, sorry if this is posted in the wrong area. I am looking to purchase a new android phone from either Verizon or T-mobile.

I was going to get the s8+ from t-mobiles christmas promo, but that didnt happen, so now I am looking to purchase a phone.

From what I can tell, it looks like every goddamn phone has the bootloader locked. Which is one reason I was glad I didn't get an s8+. I was looking at the google pixel 2 xl, as it is on sale right now through verizon. But there weren't very many custom roms that I could see.

The past phones I have had, I have rooted and installed usually a Resurrection remix rom, or a Lineage OS rom, also cyanogen, but that was a while ago.

So what is a good phone to get from either of those carriers that I will be able to root and install a good custom rom? If not Resurrection or lineage, what other custom roms are good?

Thanks

[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] hexahive:
Hi everyone,

i hope someone has time to help me on this. I had some experience with flashing custom roms with Lenovo a6000 and some Samsung phones, but it seems there's some things that are different with p9 Lite (L21), or some things i don't understand.

First things first, i've followed steps on how to install LineageOS (LineageOS-14.1-20171228-hi6250-UNOFFICIAL-HassanMirza01) over stock Nougat rom (B381), so i've unlocked the bootloader, flashed Revolution recovery via fastboot, and then installed the rom, gapps, magisk... What happened after installing magisk is a sudden restart, and after that, i got stuck at the LineageOS boot logo (i've let it work for over an hour until i gave up)... Thinking magisk was a problem, i also tried SuperSU, but had the same situation - restart before it finnished. Afterwards i've tried flashing EliteTWRP and after success, i've flashed the Omni-7.1.2-20171201-hi6250-HOMEMADE-HassanMirza01.zip, which also got stuck at the Omni boot logo, but i was able to do installation both with magisk and then again with supersu. Reading through XDA gave me some suggestions, one of them being to format userdata, which gave me a message that the command is not allowed.

Then i made a huge mistake of accidentally formatting internal dalvik+cache+data+system+INTERNAL STORAGE via recovery... After that, the Omni boot logo stopped showing, and i've been trying to repair it since then.

What i've tried so far is:

- fastboot flash boot, recovery (stock), system:

from what i've read there's also a CUST.img that i need to flash, but when i extract update.app that i had installed before all this, it doesn't contain it. I've tried flashing cust.img from another package, but it gives an error.

- after flashing boot, recovery and system.img, i've tried copying various update.app versions to dload on sdcard, then forcing update via pwr+volup+voldown, but every single one gives me "Software install failed - incompatibility with current version - please download the correct update package"... the same happens with downgrade package update.app.

It seems that only B381 update.app, when copied to sdcard and executed in the same way, gives a somewhat different message, instead of "incompatibility with current ver..." it says "Get help from http:..."

- adb shell dd if=/external_sd/oeminfo of=/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/oeminfo // re-locked my bootloader

- i can unlock the bootloader and install twrp again via fastboot oem unlock *************** and fastboot flash recovery

- i've also tried unbricking options via P9 Lite Toolkit app, no success.

- HiSuite recovery option says device is not supported for system recovery

Any suggestions ?

[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] hexahive:
Thanks.

I've managed to revert to stock by following one thread here on XDA. What I did was install L21C432oemInfo-DS.zip, then wipe everything via TWRP, and finally copy the L21C432B130 update app to dload folder on sd card, then the setup went without any problems.

I am now doing a full backup via Meticulus TWRP before i do anything.

There's one thing i dont understand about AOSP and RessurectionRMX roms, it says they're EMUI5 based - does that mean i'd have to update to EMUI5 based stock rom before i try installing it (prerequisites don't mention anything emui related) or that simply means the rom contains EMUI5 ?

You must already be on EMUI 5 to install EMUI5 based ROMs.

Hi, last week I used FF to force download build MHA-L29 8.0.0.360(C10) on my MHA-L28C185B188 (I didn't know I would be in trouble)

After the update finished downloading it rebooted the phone, then was stuck on erecovery since then, I tried wipe cache / factory reset but still it didn't boot up.

I can't use fastboot method for flashing because the bootloader is locked, so is FRP.

I tried different UPDATE.APP files from Oreo MHA-L29 8.0.0.360(C185) using the up/down volume method but the update always fail at 5%

So for those of you who know about flashing, is my phone dead ?

It should downgrade you back to C185B186 nougat.

[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] wancyber:
Sometimes during normal usage of the phone, if the phone detects some security anomaly, it would engage the FRP lock .

It has also been found that the phone enters FRP lock mode also when you do a "Reset to default" in the developer mode. So try to avoid doing that.

Basically what happens when you reset the developer mode is that the "OEM Unlock" setting goes back to disabled, and typically when OEM Unlock is disabled, then FRP lock is enabled. However if the bootloader is unlocked, then you will find that it is not possible to change the "OEM Unlock" setting in developer mode, because if bootloader is unlocked then this setting is greyed out and not possible to change.

In short ->

Bootloader is Locked -> "OEM Unlock" setting is greyed out

"OEM Unlock" is enabled -> FRP Lock is Unlocked

"OEM Unlock" is disabled -> FRP Lock is Locked

FRP lock is to prevent mis-use of the phone in case of theft. Since it requires you to enter your google sign-on information again after doing a factory reset before you can use the phone..

FRP lock disables entering any fastboot command, which is a big issue since it means you cannot do anything in bootloader mode i.e. no flashing another recovery, no lock/unlock OEM etc.

In order to check if your phone is FRP locked or not, enter the bootloader mode. Over there it will be mentioned "FRP Lock" or "FRP Unlock", the former indicating that the phone is FRP locked.

In such scenarios, the only way out of the FRP lock mode is to flash the stock firmware again (which means your phone will be restored to totally factory condition i.e. bootloader will be locked, phone will be unrooted).

At the point when the phone enters FRP Lock, if you happen to have stock recovery, then you have a better situation as compared to if you have custom recovery (TWRP).

This is because if you have stock recovery, then you can simply use FF to flash your region's stock firmware. However if you have TWRP, then you have to flash the C636 version (asian) using Huawei Updater mode and then move on to your region's stock firmware.

Hey guys, just to let you all know on my findings. I have Nexus 5X charger (rated 5v 3A) and decided to try on my A1.

It goes from 63% (I think, I forgot to write down the actual %) to 100% in 45 minutes. Considering usually after 80% it will charge slowly, I think this is pretty quick time.

I'll test it again some more when the battery level is much lower and report back.

I'm on latest Oreo stable

OPR1.170623.026.7.12.29
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] goofball2k:
are you measuring the charging amperage after 80%?

37% in 45 minutes isn't all that fast, imo.

I'll measure charge time tomorrow, stating start percentage and I'll look for what happens after 80%, to see how much it drops in charging amperage.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] xb360:
I didn't measure it's amperage, just check the time till it fully charged.

If do the math from this charge means from 0% can be fully charge in 82 minutes. That should be faster than stock charger. One caveat though, if it's really 63% and not 73% when I start charging it. :eek:

Now my phone already 2 hours SOT and almost an hour hotspot, but still left 74%. Not easy to deplete it's battery.

One more thing I forgot to mention in first post, I'm on latest Oreo stable.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] cr0ssx21:
From what I read, Quick Charge would use dynamic voltage (5v-20v) instead of utilizing higher amps to attain higher wattage charging.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] alkesh95:
Use ampere app to measure current.

For better results try charging it while its off from 0 to 100.

And try while its on.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] xb360:
I'm not sure if Nexus 5X charger is QC, it doesn't stated anywhere. But the amperage is higher than A1 stock charger.

Ok I'll try it when I charge later. Now the battery still left 50%. I'll drain it another 10% at least before charging.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] thirakun:
its still same as before.

only below 2A
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] xb360:
Alright so my battery was at 42% when I plug in the charger. Using ampere it stated Max USB Curr is 2000mA. And the reading max is 1930mA while average is about 1800mA.

After 20 minutes it have gone up to 65%. Reached 90% after 43 minutes. At exactly one hour it reached 97%, which I checked ampere reading is 440mA. 100% reached at 64 minutes.

During charging I received a call which lasted about 3 minutes, which I use loud speaker for the call, so here might have added few minutes to it's charging time.

So I guess the speed is around the same when Oreo beta is?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] goofball2k:
Start time: 0805h

Battery: 38%

Check in time: 0905h

Battery: 87%

Did see that the amperage has lowered to around 1A after the battery reached past 80%. It definitely decreases after 90%, I'll check this the next time I charge.

I can run the test again with a different usb measuring tool. This first one seems to indicate a lower voltage than my other tool by about 0.2v (and amperage by about 0.2-0.3A. Although it should just be a passthrough for the power, it may be inhibiting the power sent to the phone.

The measured amount of power sent was ~1600mAh to get the phone to 90%. That seems about right for 52%, give or take.

i try with Honor 8 Pro QC charger (9v 2a) and it goes from 0 to 78% in 60 minutes, phone was off. I don't know the total time to 100%, sry

Stayed around 1400 mA for me above 80%
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] xb360:
Using Nexus 5X charger?

I got around 1800 average

That seems faster. I got a Huawei 9v 2a charger too, I'll test it after my battery dropped below 50%.

Stayed 1400 until full?

Using Nexus 5X charger?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] goofball2k:
1600mAh is the amount of power that was sent to the phone, as measured by my USB measuring tool. If you're talking about amperage during charging, I get around 1.9A on average. It fluctuates between 1.85 and 1.95A, and the voltage fluctuates between 4.95 and 5.20.

This is using a Tutuo charger which is capable of QC 3.0, and also 5v/2.4A.

I've tested using the regular 2.4A port and the QC port.

Basically, this phone does not request more than 2A at most, so even a 3A charger isn't going to make a difference.
