Last week I had a problem of getting my MDA operational. Thanks to some of you, you helped me and I got it working. Now I have a problem with the Touch Screen not working sometimes. I find that in the morning after a complete 100% charge overnight, my Touch Screen does not work and is very sporadic. I can get it to work and then all of a sudden, it will stop working. I will do a Soft Reset/Power Off and then it will work for a while. I have even did a Hard Reset and Restored my previous backup (SPB Backup) and that won't resolve the issue completely.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Again, Thank you for just reading this thread. I do hope that there is a solution for this like there was for my previous problem.

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] sylaw:
so i recently purchased a Xperia XZ premium. I was really exited since i already have a massive library of 4K movies , and i get to watch them on the go. But sadly i found out the default Video player does not support H265 codec and i had no choice but to use VLC & MX player. so my problem is do i get the same level of HDR play back performance and up-scaling level with VB frame rate sync with these 3rd party players? because iv heard that the default video app has all of those options that i have pointed out.

Also please Let me know which player you use.. Thank you :angel:
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Blackghosthm:
But it must suppurt it becuase device can record 4k h265 by it self and can play that.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] sylaw:
Sadly the phone is only allowing us to run 4K files at H264 codec using the OEM app
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Inerent:
That is not true. You can play h265 hevc movies with the album app. Also mkv files.
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] sylaw:
im not saying it cant.. but it lags like crazy.. ( stutters every frame. heck it even skip frames) fyi im on oreo ( 47.1.A.12.145)
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] Inerent:
No, it don't lags! You should check the thread download from Oreo to Nougat the back to oreo... It seems it is a problem with partition fragmentation... Or google play services... You can try to become beta for google play services, if not helps just downgrade to Nougat then update again to oreo
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] sylaw:
Heck... so you are saying i can run 2160p 10 bit h265 HDR mkv files without a lag on default video player and the lag im getting is due to a software fragmentation? bruhhh.... sony why you do this.:(:eek:
[MENTION=8615083]Inerent[/MENTION] also my man i didnt get this part of what you said "You can try to become beta for google play services" care to explain ^_^
[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] undefine:
Nope it is not software dependent, actually it is the way the file encoded causes the problem. Try to shoot a video with 4K HEVC from your camera, you can play it without lag.

As far as I know it doesn't lags in 8bit, and unless you have OLED display (XZP has IPS) you can't really tell the difference. -- No you can tell the difference but sadly this doesn't change the situation.

MX Player is the greatest one in terms of playback, but VLC is Ad-Free and open source.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Rauf_Baku:
Hi. I want share important thing with you. Some of Samsung devices support reset screen lock with programmators (z3x, octoplus etc.) when FRP/FAP is ON.

But most of devices are not supported by this boxes. Only way is COMBINATION FILES. Just flash Combination file (make sure REV number is same with your device firmware- see it on Recovery mode) with Z3x box (or any tool), and uncheck (IMPORTANT!!!) CACHE and PIT sectors. Then press Flash button and your device will be opened with data in it. You can transfer your files to your PC and reflash phone with format all data, or reset FRP, flash only AP, and then TWRP, and delete this files:

/data/system/gesture.key

/data/system/locksettings.db

/data/system/locksettings.db-wal

/data/system/locksettings.db-shm

Then your device will be opened without screen lock and data in it. You also can do it with Odin. Delete .md5 extension from Combination File, open it with Winrar and delete Cache and Pit files from archive. Then rename it with .md5, and flash with Odin (AP).

Note 1. Devices that have encrypted internal storage not support this way. If you have such device, then your phone will be start with Pin code after you flash it with comb files. Just flash official firmware(AP) and device will be back previous stiuation(Screen lock).

Note 2. If you flash whole comb file with CACHE and PIT all off your files will be deleted permanently! Be careful!

Good lock! I'm sorry, Good Luck! :)

Anyone tried the above successfully? does it work on xiaomi phones?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Apcwizard:
I tried this method with one exception: removed userdata.bin as well from the binary, on J710MN ZTO with U4 Combination file. First attempt i removed both the pit file and the cashe binary. Rebooted with an error message "dencryption failed". I could hear a sound from the PC that indicated the phone was connected and it made a chime even with the lock still on. I reflashed Stock rom with no CSC and system booted like previously with a pattern lock. I went back to. Second, I reflashed same combo file but I put back the userdata binary now it went through with no lock but no data is to be found. So now i'm most likely F'ed. I will reflash stock and see what happens lol
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Iceboy64:
Hi guys.

I have a Humax 2din car multimedia that seems it has linux os on it. there is only one usb port for this device, no sd card. it's locked and I want to unlock it to access terminal to do some stuff on it. I can attach keyboard and mouse to device via usb port and only Windows+R works! it rotates screen by 90 degree. no more action.

Why do I think it's based on Linux os?

because the Navigation software is polnav6 and when I wanted to upgrade it, upgrade files are like linux files. some .sh files and some other folders.

So, any idea about how I can unlock the device will be appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Guides, News, & Discussion] BavoV:
Some companies mention the latest patchlevel on our phone (info phone -> software) but "forget" to update all the patches. The firm security research lab looked into this problem.

https://www.wired.com/story/android-phones-hide-missed-security-updates-from-you/

Snoopsnitch is an app that checks if all patches before the mentioned patchlevel (date) are up to date.

For the J5 (2016) SM-J510FN only 7 out of 110 patches are inconclusive and 3 patches are missing. Don't know , but mostly it will be about deleted features if the numbers are that low.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] daddylonglegs:
Hi,

I am trying to root my Google Pixel on 8.1. I was on Magisk for a long time but I gave up on it because a few root apps I was trying to use aren't compatible.

I read some guides but they are ridiculously out of date. They say to use an experimental version of TWRP because it fails unlock codes and such; a lot of really out of date stuff. Some don't mention the ElementalX step, and then other guides say a custom kernel is required for rooting. But I had root with Magisk and never had to install a custom kernel. Other guides are still telling me to use the signature zips which supposedly hasn't been needed in forever. Trying to piece this all together is causing me to rip my hair out.

Anyway this is what I did, and it kept failing (I kept getting a "patching sepolicy" error in TWRP).

1) I booted the TWRP.img

2) I installed the twrp.zip

3) I booted into recovery

4) I installed Elemental X 13.3 zip

5) I installed SuperSU zip

6) I installed SuperSUHide zip

This isn't working. Every time I try to open SuperSU it says I don't have root. I also get an error every time I boot about their being an internal problem with my hardware and to contact the manufacturer. I believe Elemental X 13.3 is the cause. I wiped my phone and reinstalled stock and I am no longer getting that error.

Can anybody let me know what the deal is? Do I still have to install a custom kernel to install SuperSU? If so, what are the steps? Obviously whatever I am doing is wrong. Thanks so much in advance.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Sh0X31:
SuperSU is not working in the Pixel with 8.1
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] daddylonglegs:
Oh. I had no idea.

Do any root methods that aren't Magisk work?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] TENN3R:
Looks like Magisk is becoming more and more popular nowadays, so I don't think any other method with 8.1 works.

What's the problem with magisk? It's super easy and you can also install systemless modules, which is a big advantage
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] daddylonglegs:
1) Magisk doesn't work with StickMount. I need a way for my USB-C flash drive to mount as something all file explorer programs can see. There seems to be no way to do this with Magisk

2) Magisk does not work with WifiTetherRouter. I need to use it to tether without being capped at 512kbps. It only works with "real root" like SuperSU.

3) I don't benefit at all from systemless modules because I use GravityBox, which makes the whole systemless thing pointless for me
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] KittyRgnarok:
1) OTG

2) There are tether modules on magisk and other tether apps that will work with magisk

3) How does gravity box make systemless pointless? To my knowledge gravity box just builds custom rom features on top of stock, systemless modules should work regardless and provide things GB cannot

Lastly SuperSU isn't to be trusted anymore as it is no longer owned and maintained by chainfire. And could you explain the "real root" thing because magisk is a very real tangible root.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] daddylonglegs:
1) Doesn't that depend on the phone? Does my phone support OTG? And if so, why does my USB flash drive not show up in a bunch of apps?

2) None of them work with WiFi tethering except for WifiTetherRouter. PDANet works but it requires a PDANet program to be installed on the receiving computer, which means I am out of luck on stuff like the Nintendo Switch

3) Because from what I understand the entire point of Systemless root is to pass SafetyNet, and SafetyNet fails if you have GravityBox installed.

As for the "real root" thing, the developer of Auto Call Recorder here on XDA told me the newest version is not compatible with Magisk, only "real root" (his words). The developer of WifiTetherRouter told me the same thing.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] KittyRgnarok:
Pretty sure otg should work but I could be wrong. Try mounting otg via twrp. And ohh my bad I see what you mean about the tethering thing I misunderstood. As far as the magisk thing meh safetynet isn't that important and u can have a second slot that is properly intact and idk about the real root business but if that's what the devs said then fair enough
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] daddylonglegs:
Thanks so much for the reply!

For some reason when I flash TWRP on this phone my phone will only boot into recovery until I flash back the stock boot.img (or the patched Magisk one). I am using the newest TWRP. Anyone else with this problem?

Anyway I mounted OTG in TWRP using the bootable image for TWRP. Would it make a difference? Does it have to be done in the installed version of TWRP where TWRP is my actual recovery?

After enabling OTG in TWRP I still can't find my SD/USB store in storage/emulated which is where I need it to be if I want all my apps to see it. Is there any way to do that?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] TENN3R:
I don't flash twrp zip, just boot it, I know twrp on pixel oreo has still some troubles.

You can try to put your pin and AFTER (when you are on the main scrren with all the actions) plug the otg. On nougat this worked for me, now I just put the 2 or 3 files in internal storage so I don't use otg anymore from recovery so I don't know if this method works or not.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Nick80835:
Install ElementalX before TWRP if you wish to install TWRP.

SuperSU is no longer maintained and will not work any longer on modern versions of Android until further notice.

About the "internal problem" this can be completely ignored and does not harm the functionality of the device whatsoever.

Magisk 16.3 is the best version of Magisk and mounting USB-OTG shouldn't be problematic whatsoever. Mounting the drive in TWRP has no effect on it mounting in the system and vice-versa.

To mount the OTG in TWRP, plug it in, go to "mount" and select storage location, here you can choose between the internal sdcard and the USB-OTG storage device.

Regarding the mounting of the USB-OTG device in Android the drive must be formatted using a filesystem/partition scheme that Android is capable of mounting. I think FAT32 is the most compatible option.

Applications won't just magically see the external storage unless they're made to support such devices. Google kinda messed up some external storage functionality in Nougat and Oreo, it's kind of quirky. :silly:
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lfc54:
Hi,

I need your help because i have an issue with my Honor 6 plus I can't resolve.

My phone doesn't charge when i plug a cable in.

For exemple, now i have 3% left on my battery. If i plug a charging cable, it won't go below 3%. But it doesn't go above neither. The phone seems to detect the cable, because there is a noise when i plug it in, and when i unplug it, a message appears on the screen "Please, charge the battery".

So, I thought this was because of the battery. So I bought a brand new original battery on Aliexpress for $10.

After replacing it, i plugged a charging cable in.

The battery was already 75%. It took about half an hour to reach 76%. After 2h of charging, the phone was 100%.

I thought my problem was resolve, but since 2 days, my battery stuck at 3% and i don't know what to do : i replaced the battery, i changed cables, power supplier, but it's always the same thing.

Do you have a solution ? Thanks (I'm sorry if my english is not great, you can find the french translation just below if it is more understandable to you)

----

Bonjour,

J'ai un problème avec mon Honor 6 plus, et j'ai besoin de votre aide afin de le résoudre !

En effet, mon portable ne prend plus la charge lorsque j'essaie de le charger.

Par exemple, il me reste 3% de batterie. Si je le branche, la batterie ne descendra pas en dessous de 3%. Mais elle ne va pas au-dessus non plus, je stagne à 3%.

Le portable semble cependant détecter le câble de chargement, car quand je le branche, il y a un petit signal sonore. Quand je le débranche, un message apparaît à l'écran me demandant de recharger le téléphone.

J'ai cru que le problème venait d'une batterie défectueuse, donc j'en ai acheté une neuve officielle sur Aliexpress pour $10.

Après l'avoir changée, j'ai remarqué qu'il y avait déjà 75% de batterie. Après avoir mis le portable en charge, il a fallu attendre 30min pour qu'il passe de 75 à 76%. La batterie n'était à 100% que 2h plus tard.

Je me suis alors dit que le problème était résolu.

Cependant, depuis 2j, ma batterie reste bloquée à 3%, et je ne sais pas quoi faire pour l'augmenter. J'ai déjà changé de câble, d'alimentation et de batterie, mais rien ne semble fonctionner...

Auriez-vous une solution à mon problème ?

En vous remerciant d'avance :)
