According to GSM Arena the BLU Vivo X (8 core processor, 4gb RAM, 64gb internal storage)

was just launched on Feb. 28th https://www.gsmarena.com/blu_vivo_x-9072.php

For those of you whom aren't familiar, the BLU brand is typically an exclusive of Amazon.

However, the BLUE Vivo X does not appear to be available any longer. A search on Amazon

states 'not currently available'

I've Tweeted BLU and Amazon and have received no responses. Anyone have inside info?

Thanks dev for the great rom,smooth as silk,maybe the smoothest of all oreo roms.that too with lots of handy feature.Now i need to check battery life for 1 or 2 cycles.

One observation:

If your statusbar clock is positioned left or right,a duplicate clock appears at the center.so you have to deal with two clocks.temporary fix is that u just have your statusbar clock at center only.

Feature requests:

1. Apps-ops

2. Can this "device is hd capable" notification be removed and volte logo in statusbar be added instead.

Hello all,

I am Titan user by WinMo 6.1.

If I cook a ROM with this wince.nls file, my HTC soft keypad (2 = ABC, 3 = DEF, xT9 input, etc.) will only work by QWERTY x 40 key mode...

I have no idea what may be the trouble about this nls file and conflict to HTC keypad.... If anyone could take a look, I would be very grateful. The nls file is for Japanese localization.

Thanks in advance!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] illuminarok:
I find out what's wrong with my HTC KeyPad and MS IME 3.1 J...

HTC KeyPad use IME API for xT9 engine...

BUT

MS IME 3.1 J also use IME API for JP Input method...

So, when HTC is install it make a registry key:

<characteristic type="HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e0010409">

<parm name="Layout Text" value="eT9 IME" datatype="string" />

<parm name="Ime File" value="\windows\eT9Ime.dll" datatype="string" />

</characteristic>

So activate eT9Ime.dll, but in order for JP IME to input JP text, it make a registry key here, too:

<characteristic type="HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e0010409">

<parm name="Keyboard Layout" value="00000409" datatype="string" />

<parm name="Ime File" value="imjp31.dll" datatype="string" />

<parm name="Layout Text" value="Microsoft IME3.1(JPN)" datatype="string" />

</characteristic>

So activate imejp31.dll, but if I activate JP IME to input JP text, it make HTC KeyPad operate in 40 key QWERTY mode only! ( ' A '; )

THEN

If I keep eT9Ime.dll active, it make MS IME 3.1 J not respond at all! So, no can input any text through Japanese Input panels...

Anybody have any idea how to load both at same time?

Hello

since a lot of days/weeks I have every 2-3 days an update available for WatchMaker Companion, but it's always the version 4.9.9 .

So every time I make an update from 4.9.9 to 4.9.9 :confused:

I tried uninstall/install many times ; it's the same situation : still 4.9.9 with update to 4.9.9 asked. (i do the update, and 2 days later the same update is available and so on)

Notice than on the phone everything is Ok with the updates (Every updates works like it must, and now I'm under 5.0.8)

Do someone get the same bug ? Is ther an version over 4.9.9 ? (5.0 or more ?)

Anyone have an issue with installing the companion app. My wife had a note8 withe gear sport and had watchmaker all set up for months with no issues. She just updated to a note9 and went to re set up the gear sport but now the companion app loads on and when try to choose the watchmaker face the normal blue base face is not there it switches to one of the Samsung faces and locks up, won't do anything till you reboot watch then if you choose watchmaker again it locks the watch up again and repeat over and over. I have tried everything multiple re installs multiple watch resets and always the same thing. Anyone know a solution please help I have searched all over and can't find anyone who has a similar problem.

[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] Gang-star:
Hallo, guys!

Well, I bought myself Mate 10 Lite. Then I asked Huawei for oem unlock key, became a root/admin of my device. I flashed TWRP 3.1.1-0 (coloured version, not the black/grey) wiped all the Huawei mess, killed all unnecessary mem eaters and I am quite happy with stock firmware. BUT!

For some reason, no custom recovery will save my settings! Any time I access it, it always asks me for making the system writeable, my time zone, my display & vibro settings, etc., all is always reset to some default. I tried different TWRPs, I even fully wiped the rooted phone to factory defaults, formated Dalwik, Data, Cache, even internal SD (did not dare to format the other partitions since I dont know what would that do...). Well, I wiped it, rebooted to TWRP, set all things as I want them and powered off the device. Then powered on into TWRP and again, TWRP is in default... W T F...? :confused::confused::confused::eek::eek:

So, how to make the custom recovery to save my settings, please?:o:o:o
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] ante0:
It's because TWRP saves settings to internal storage by default, and since you're probably encrypted (and your twrp can't decrypt) it won't save settings.

You can fix it by unpacking your twrp image using Android Image Kitchen, go to the ramdisk/etc/ folder and open recovery.fstab in Notepad ++.

Here you have a few choices.

I used to add settingsstorage to /cache but the downside is that it will remove settings when you clear /cache.

You can add it directly to /data instead, as the root of /data is not encrypted.

So basically you'd change

flags=display="data";backup=1

To

flags=display="data";settingsstorage;backup=1

Or you can add it to /product, /odm, /cust.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] Gang-star:
Wow! Thanks for advice! I Will surely try that! But I dont think I encryped the phone, I ll check that out and let you know. Thank you anyway! See, I am more Windoez BSODed rather than Linux freed...

/usbotg	auto	/dev/block/sda1 /dev/block/sda flags=display="USB OTG";storage;removable;backup=0

And there is no flags by /data. Here is what I did! I extended the line:

"/data	f2fs	/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/userdata"

to

"/data	f2fs	/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/userdata	flags=display="data";settingsstorage;backup=1"

without quotes of course, but that did not work and after flashing the modded recovery and couple changes made in settings and restart, it still goes back to default:confused::confused::confused:

2 questions here: A) what if I simply mod the default settings to fit within my needs? B) How and where? Little quick guide would be appreciated ;o)))

A btw., I know my phone is not crypted. It seems like it would only allow to encrypt and external microSD card.

Cheers ;o)))
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] Gang-star:
Hello!

I googled that command settingsstorage a bit and it seemed to me like i mistyped it. It shall be "settings storage" not "settingsstorage", it should have contain a space between them 2 words. So I rewrote it, repacked, flashed it... but it did not work either. I am still trying to save the settings on DATA partatition. I will try other partition as well. I let you know.

Bye
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] Gang-star:
Hallo!

Well I am very confused... I left the idea of being able to save the settings for any custom recovery within Android 7.0 and moved forward to Android 8 Oreo, thinking the new Andy will perform better that the old one. I have fully unlocked phone (RNE-L21C432). I was able to flash the oreo-dediacated TWRP then I struggled a bit with Huawei Firmware Finder for Windows and flashing it with the hwOTA tool. For some time, during the flashing, I recognized that the TWRP 3.2.1-0 from Catuva21 hold the settings. But after flashing the firmware files and couple of restarts, the recovery again always started in the default condition.

But what is even worse is the fact that the phone is soo damn slow with the Oreo ROM!! I rooted it with Magisk 16 succesfully, removed a lot of bloatware and services that I do not necessarilly need but still, for example the response for fingerprint unlock is soooo damn slow! It takes about 6-8secs. to unlock and lod the home screen fully. It took about 1-2 secs. in Android 7.0/MIUI5.1. DO NOT UPGRADE TO 8.0!!!

And another strange thing is that even that I downloaded the latest RNE-LE21C432CUSTC432 8.0.0.330 firmware from early June 2018 and flashed it successfully, I still only see 8.0.0.046(0BYF) in my device info tab. I cant even move to 8.0.0.304 that is also downloadable. I followed the guide here https://xdaforums.com/mate-10/huawe...development/hwota-huawei-mate10-lite-t3777115

and I think if I repete the procedure with the latest files for my phone I should be fine and fully up to date, but no.... I wish I never moved to Oreo...ever!!!
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] ante0:
If you had quoted or mentioned me I would've seen this earlier. :P

Anyway, "settingsstorage" without a space is correct.

Huawei use fileencryption as default for both Nougat and Oreo so unless you removed encryption it will still be there.

To remove it you would have to edit fstab in boot (Nougat) or /vendor/etc (Oreo), then Format Data in TWRP.

I would suggest adding it to /cache instead if it doesn't want to work.

You should be able to downgrade back to Nougat.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] Gang-star:
Hallo!

Thank you for your time and advise. I am now on a family vacation and I am not going to mess with my phone here. I but I am definitely considered to revert back to Nougat. I already read some articles and guides about how to do that. But first I want to bring all the vacation records home and only then format the storage and revert. I let you know, if you wouldn't mind and eventually ask for help if I get stuck. Thanks again!

Regards, Gang-star
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] xxxmadraxxx:
Extremely late to the party here. But when I searched for "Why does TWRP even have settings" this thread came up. So may as well append here...

I don't think it's anything to do with having your phone encrypted or not. I've been using TWRP for years and it's never remembered settings and I've never used it on an encrypted phone.

It wouldn't be quite so annoying if the default settings weren't so bloody irritating: Screen brightness at 100% so that every time I boot ro Recovery, I have my eyeballs seared off by the phone screen suddenly glaring at me like the headlights of a juggernaut. And vibration enabled [presumably also at full throttle] so that every time I touch a button, it's like shaking hands with someone with one of those practical joke electric shock buzzers.

C'mon TWRP devs. If you're not going to respect user settings, at least tone down the defaults a bit!

Hi,

I bought this phone (Moto G5 Plus) as an open box item from a local Best Buy. The intent was to just turn it into a separate gaming device (primarily PoGo) so I'm not constantly killing my phone. I go to turn on the phone, but I can't get signed in. It's taking me to a screen and asking me to sign in with an account previously on the device. After some googling, apparently this is a device protection screen? I tried to factory wipe the data, but that doesn't seem to have worked. Is there a way around this or am I stuck driving 30+ minutes back to Best Buy?

Looks like it has Android 7.0 I think. None of the youtube videos with highlighting text are working. I only have copy and cut option.
