BLA-L29 8.0.0.127(C432) contact pictures

After factory reset to my mate 10 pro, i have strange problem with contact pictures.

When i use the pictures unchanged from my old phone, the picture of the contact is displayed in small circle.

When i change the picture with a hi resolution one, something strange is happening:

- when starting a call, the picture is stretched to the limits of the screen and is so blurred , you can't see the face.

- when receiving a call the picture is stretched to the limits of the scree and is in hi resolution. when i pick up the call the picture becomes so blurred , you can't see the face.

I presume this is some software bug, but will appreciate any help solving it.

just to declare: i am a simple user, not a developer...:)

That's correct. If you have a Huawei ID added on your phone and it's older than 2 weeks you can get unlock code instantly.

[Huawei Y6 Questions & Answers] Androfish:
Hello everyone, a question to all owners of SCL-L01. It happened to me yesterday to take pictures with the flash of the camera and came out with a color tending to purple. I immediately thought of a hardware malfunction but with surprise also in that of my work colleague come out like that. It does not seem normal to me, does it happen to you anyway? Attach sample file.
[Huawei Y6 Questions & Answers] WildKnocker:
Have you tried tweaking color balance ?
[Huawei Y6 Questions & Answers] Androfish:
I tried with daylight and already it's better but I do not understand automatically because of this shade? I have an old Samsung terminal that behaves a lot better .. How are your photos?
[Huawei Y6 Questions & Answers] Androfish:
At the moment I downloaded Footej and set it with daylight and active flash, so when I need the flash I'll take that one. I really do not understand, even my friend's Huawei Y5 device works very well.
[Huawei Y6 Questions & Answers] WildKnocker:
My photos are usually fine , but honestly I don't expect much camera performance from a budget phone let alone with a custom ROM.
[Huawei Y6 Questions & Answers] Androfish:
One moment, I am now the stock rom but I do not speak of quality in herself than to me is fine, but the flash when activated produces this horrendous purple color.
[Huawei Y6 Questions & Answers] Androfish:
Have you tried to take a picture on a white surface with activated flash and auto-balancing? Would you be so kind to upload it here?
[Huawei Y6 Questions & Answers] WildKnocker:
Here's a photo , note that I'm using runner85sx' ViperOS ROM
[Huawei Y6 Questions & Answers] Androfish:
Thank you very much you have been very kind! At this point I think my device is faulty. I do not think it depends on the rom, I've tried different but the problem remains.
[Huawei Y6 Questions & Answers] Androfish:
This is what comes out to me!
[Huawei Y6 Questions & Answers] Androfish:
It is not a matter of life or death, we would miss it, but the device is still under warranty and I would like to try to solve the problem.
[Huawei Y6 Questions & Answers] WildKnocker:
If you got time it would be best if you flashed a ROM and checked if the problem still occurs , if you don't have time the easiest option is to tweak the white balance manually .
[Huawei Y6 Questions & Answers] Androfish:
how are you with the Viper? If I have time I want to try to install this rom and see if the problem is solved.
[Huawei Y6 Questions & Answers] WildKnocker:
Pretty good , but the camera is the same as most ROMs here , below average , going to test desalesouche's latest lineage to see if it's any better .
[Huawei Y6 Questions & Answers] Androfish:
Thanks I could try. A curiosity, try to look at this other screen, there's my problem!

[Huawei Y6 Questions & Answers] Androfish:
Install both the Viper and Lineage yesterday and unfortunately the problem remains! I do not know what to think, if a defect of my device or this model has this strange feature. However, it is safe to have a white balance and when set to automatic does not work well. I downloaded yesterday I said Footej that I will use in flash mode with balancing set to daylight and the camera stock for all other situations. If there is someone else with my same "problem" I would be happy to compare myself with it.
[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] Punchabi:
It gets really frustrating when you have to accept the call and that whole portion is just dead. Should I try changing the ROM as I have tried everything even Factory Reset.
[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] Siva Mk:
Doe this happen only for the phone app? Or is it always there?
[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] Punchabi:
With all the apps and keyboard too. Infact even typing something is the real pain. A particular portion in the bottom side of the screen is completely dead.
[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] Siva Mk:
Are you talking about the small area ath the bottom of the screen?? Or at the lower middle of the screen? I'm confused you said you couldn't answer any calls... From that point I thought you meant the lower middle part. But now you're saying it's the small area at the very bottom.

Anyways, if it's in the middle then it's likely that your touch panel is dead .

Else if it's just the small part at the bottom then it's nothing serious as it's not hardware related and is present only in the stock ROM. It's mainly for the swipe up gesture to bring up the navigation bar, as according to Lenovo they needed some part to recognise the swipe.

Flash any custom ROM and it'll be solved.

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyCorps:
Started having this issue on my phone 48hrs ago after it being left on the shelf charging from 5% battery overnight. So I'm using a 3rd party app to simulate the buttons for time being as a workaround (there's loads of variants on the Play Store that don't require root) until I fix it.

I had to replace a cracked screen on it a few months back (which was easier to do then I thought thanks to the iFixIt teardown. All has seemed well apart from some light blooms on the screen that I've lived with and now the buttons failing, and the part I ordered didn't come with the adhesive to reattach the back.

So I've now bought another screen\digitizer from amazon in the hope it'll resolve the issue and should be delivered within the week.

I've seen a lot of forums around the web for people with similar issues.

Tests tend to involve variations of safemode or factory resetting without restoring original. But this doesn't resolve the majority of cases, except the occasional temporary fix.

Solutions include; factory resets, flashing different ROMs, dropping at a 20degree angle, persistently hitting the buttons and re-seating a ribbon cable.

My thoughts:

It seems to me that maybe the Soft Keys area uses resistive touch section rather than capacitive touch, which would explain why the soft key touch area works in some instances but not others. It would also through weight behind it being a hardware issue. The capacitive multi-touch screen works fine, but the resistive section for the soft keys doesn't. Anyone have further thoughts on this?
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aland005:

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bill720:
Easy test

Rotate your phone into secondary landscape mode. This will place the navigation buttons on the other end of the screen. From here, you will be able to perform the necessary tests to determine the validity of your theory.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iks8:
Lol this doesn't make any sense, if it was a true you would be able to press soft keys with a pen or old stylus - this is how resistive screen works.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] autosurgeon:
No part of this phone's screen is resistive. Sigh people that don't understand the basics of capacitive touch screens.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyCorps:
Thanks for the responses.

Yeah, resistive was a pretty far stretch of imagination, but I couldn't think what else it might be at the time. :rolleyes:

Anyway. Replacement screen fitted and soft keys working again.:victory:

I can put off looking for a replacement phone for a little longer. :)

[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] Airwolf79:
It's annoying how they keep calling it bezzel-less. They should call it minimum bezzel or slight bezzel. In fact, the side bezzels are actually slightly bigger than previous gen OnePlus phones. Even the Essential and Mi Mix 2 still have bottom bezzels. I wouldn't even call the iPhone X bezzel-less with that notch. I do like the trend though, and I'm sure we will see a true bezzel-less phone in the not too distant future. I just hope more manufacturers follow Essential's design and offer some smaller all screen phones. It's so much easier to use one handed. My perfect phone? A cross between the Essential phone and OnePlus 5t. Since I can't have that, I had to buy both! Lol

[Honor 9  Guides, News, & Discussion] boroleigh:
Hi. I got an Honor 9 through Three in the UK approx 3 months ago. It came unbranded and is currently on C432B100. Has anyone in the UK received any updates since getting their phone via OTA. I have already questioned this through HiCare chat and they have stated that there are some security updates coming soon. I previously had a P9 which never received an update in the 2 years I had it. Live chat also said that the updates are done in batches but i doubt there are that many Honor 9's in the UK to receive updates that warrant it to be put in batches.
[Honor 9  Guides, News, & Discussion] ambitiousButRubbish:
Im stuck in the same situation, still on B100 firmware, with, what seems like no hope of any updates, im waiting on official oreo, as from what i have read, huawei already has the correct partitions for project treble, and someone has got oreo treble working on a mate 9, which has the kirin 960, and i think someone else got it booted on an honor 9.

i guess its just a waiting game for now. oreo is in beta, so i expect an official update soon.

unless you can perform a 'fake' OTA with the firmware finder app?

i've found a B180 firmware on ff and used the in app proxy to install but got an unstable network message after 65% which then reset to 0. Am i doing anything wrong?
[Honor 9  Guides, News, & Discussion] h9_EU:
This is a bug in firmwarefinder, happens to me also sometimes. also you guys dont need a custom recovery, leave everything stock, bootloader locked and frp and the HWFF update can still be done. When unstable network message occurs for me it always helped to stop the HWFF proxy and restart it, then when everything is downloading well i leave the phone alone till 100%. Then update starts in the same way as OTA directly out of settings menu. No need for recovery, sd cards etc. Only make sure that you get the FULL OTA package and proof your imei first. If its not approved the huawei check wont verify the firmware and the installation will fail (without consequences).

approved firmwares are B120, B150 and B180 as far as i have checked myself. For the other ones i think the best is to install the nocheck_recovery

It makes.you wonder how bothered Huawei are about their phone updates.

Choose full if you have the bandwidth and time to be sure.

Blast. Just received my Nvidia Shield TV/PC 2017 16GB. It is in Chinese, only options when starting are Chinese, Taiwanese, English, then you have to register to a Chinese video company named iQiyi (I did), then it upgrades to version 6.1 (24.31.89.60) which still has all the Chinese cr@p, half of the interface is Chinese, no Google, etc.

Question:

1) Can I convert to an international version ? How ?

2) Do I need the public open source recovery image (e.g. 6.2.0) at https://developer.nvidia.com/shield-open-source or the developer one at https://developer.nvidia.com/shield-developer-os-images ?

3) Do I just follow http://developer.download.nvidia.co...ATV_2017/6.2.0/HowTo-Flash-Recovery-Image.txt ?

4) Which USB OTG is appropriate for the 2017 version ? (there is no mini USB port)

5) Can I do anything else instead (as I might have to wait for days for an USB OTG cable) ? I.e. can I connect to the Nvidia Shield from an Android smartphone and adb/fastboot from there ?

Thanks

Hi.

Isn't the Chinese version supposed to be compatible with the Nintendo wii games?

And yeah I think you should be able to flash the normal version of the fw.
[Shield Android TV General] zadox:
Yes, it should but I went with NVS for retro gaming and media playing.

I never managed to install (through Magisk) Kali on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 smartphone (complains about busybox), so I guess my only choice is to wait for that Male-Male USB cable to arrive, then try connecting/flashing with a computer :(
[Shield Android TV General] A.M.A.S:
Hi,

Can you manage to port Nintendo games to international version ?

Thx.
[Shield Android TV General] zadox:
I have to add that connecting to NVS through USB using my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 didn't work. After a struggle, I managed to install Kali NetHunter but "adb devices" does not return anything. Due to bad weather I will have to wait for that USB cable in order to connect from my computer, that's all I can do :(

[MENTION=2746792]A.M.A.S[/MENTION]

I haven't bought anything from iQiyi, since my goal of purchase was not about Nintendo. The interface is localised to Chinese anyway, and the content and payment options are for Chinese users. As far as I can tell, the Chinese version is being advertised as a device to buy/play Nintendo games. And that's what early buyers seem to do (judging from most comments), but China never had a culture for Computers and games back in the day (they were banned), so it doesn't surprise me that they only care/know about Nintendo and some boring 3D FPS stuff of the new millennium. Being an old-school guy from the 80s, my heart is elsewhere.
[Shield Android TV General] zadox:
After the USB OTG arrived I was able to flash the international image (6.2.0) from Nvidia using my Mac. I had some trouble with vendor.img (hint: it needs to be in the same directory as the fastboot command) among other things (for hardware booting to bootloader using the controller buttons it is try-and-error, the entrance to recovery menu is rather unintuitive, etc) but all is well now. The hardware performance is good, the fan is not that bad (still wish there was a fanless case), the controller and remote DO feel a bit cheapish, Android TV and its apps ARE rather limited and rough at edges. I will probably keep it.
[Shield Android TV General] batoussai:

Thanks! I succesfully updated it. With VPN directly on the router all the services work. Even though when you power on the box it still displays the chinese store logo, the rest is the international ROM. I am loving this box.

The only thing I couldn't manage to work is GeForce NOW. Heck, I think even in US it's not so easy to stream HD games. I could only get 540p at 30 fps :D

On the same note, I think anyone could try flashing the chinese ROM to the international box to try out those Nintendo games, but probably would need a VPN to a China server to make it work.
