[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] trinec:
Today I had some time, resetted my P20 and tried again to make a potential daly driver as a desktop replacement.

I got rid of some annoying things:

-> Keyboard, swtiched to GBoard to get rid of the prediction bar of Swiftkey (took too much space in Desktop mode)

-> Termux with multiple packages as a perfext Terminal emulator

-> Replaced Chrome with Chrome beta which has a much better support (scaling possibilities) for Desktop mode

-> Replaced Gmail with native Huawei Mailclient that even allows SMIME etc.

-> Installed SuperClone to Clone Chrome beta to make sure this can be running multiple times and not only one window

-> Searched for multiple App-replacements to make sure these Apps will work in Desktop mode (e.g Feedly replaced by Palabre etc.)

Now, I can say it is "usable" - had no issues, tried my successfully everyday workflow. Only the poor resolution still annoys me, would hope for WQHD or a HighDPI 4k mode. Unfortunately my USB-C dock seems not to charge it properly (connected to the original charger). Suddenly I got a battery low message.

I only have a simple USB-c to HDMI cable. desktop mode works but I still have not figured out how to configure this "app". is there any way to add anything? Netflix?
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] SmashinMachine:
Hi,

Everyone use these easy projection with some docks, hdmi adapters etc. Did someone try it with an usb-c monitor with kvm switches like dell u4919dw or lg 34wk95c?

Thanks in advice
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] trinec:
Only using phone Mode and Open ist there.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] culiacanazo:
What do you mean add anything? I watch perfectly Freeflix HQ, which is a, as you can imagine, Netflix look alike type of app, and you can even download. Pretty damn good if you ask me, and it's apparently only like 3 months behind compared to Netflix, and free! Also YouTVPlayer (that's like having the premium subscription to your cable company in Spanish, tho), HBO, Disney, ESPN, the bunny, Discovery, MTV, all of them!

I get a warning on my screen about protected content but they play nonetheless.

Heavily ad-ridden, but, you guys are smart; afterwards, they're perfect.

The only thing is that lately i can't get wireless projection to work. But the cable is still holding up a charge and all while projecting. It's also long as f*"k, so no issues there.

Try long clicking in your drawer in the device and choosing project! I tried to answer your question but I'm not sure

My phone icons gets reordered after desktop mode. Any advices?
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] trinec:
After migrating my Desktop to Desktop mode of my P20, I think I‘ll get stuck on this and will never see an upgrade for this anymore. I‘m still missing notifications popups like Dex... Maybe the native Desktop Mode of Android Q will make it better.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] culiacanazo:
I don't know how Dex does it but I'm not missing anything. Can you elaborate? Perhaps i can help.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] trinec:
Unfortunately a lot...

- Missing Dual monitor

- No (W)QHD support

- No custom icon scaling

- No overall system wide settings for scaling

- No possibility to show upcoming notifications (only the red dot that marks that there's anything)

- Missing possibility to remap external keyboard layout (qwerty, qwertz, kyrillic)

- Missing custom shortcuts (e.g. STRG + Y) will open Mailclient,...

Yes sir, check settings on TV, check taskbar speaker icon, etc

I've already checked It but the only opción that appears are phone speakers...maybe the problem is the hub: Zacro USB type C- HDMI from Amazon.

Did it fix it?
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Warren_Orange:
Hi.

I've just picked up a 2nd hand p20 pro and I would love to try this feature.

Can anyone recommend a cheapish hub from eBay UK ?

Also, does the hub need to be able to charge the p20 pro and what sort of adapter do I need for that?
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] trinec:
And cheap one should work, personally I use one for 20 Euro from Omar. And yes ist should be one that has USB-C charging input for longer usage.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Warren_Orange:
What sort of charger do you need to charge the phone through this device?
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] culiacanazo:
You're conflicting.

Can't have both.

Either cheap and won't charge or not so cheap but it will charge.

Don't be cheap, you have bought a second hand TOP TIER, WORLD CLASS device, not a wanna be flagship mid tier phone.

I can see that if you don't know/look for the above, you must be a noob, which is fine, we have all been there, and that's why you're asking advice, now let yourself be guided.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Warren_Orange:
I'm always looking the bargains. If you can get something for a certain price why pay more?
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] culiacanazo:
Yes, that's good, but if in that bargain you got yourself a great phone, one of the top in the world, you definitely should COMPLETELY REFRAIN from cheap cables because cables do matter more than you think

I'm only winding you up haha. What happened to your phone? Did you have an issue with it? If that a mate 10 I see?
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] culiacanazo:
Mate 10 pro.

Replaced mother board.

Replaced battery.

Replaced whole screen.

Basically just the casing and buttons are old! ;)
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Warren_Orange:
Sounds like a bit of a nightmare.

Do you also have a 6T?
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] culiacanazo:
Yes because i had to send in the mate and unlike most people who could do fine without a phone, i NEEDED it for work, and i always need them to be from among the best, but there are certain brands i don't like. When time comes again, I'll probably stick to 1+, not because they're the best, but because my only other choice is a company that's banned from my country :(

The current state of OEMs in my part of paradise is saddening
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] jm7josema:
Hey man, thanks for your help but it didn't work. The option of TV speakers don't appear :( so i gave back It. Can anybody recommend me one o Amazon that works the sound?
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] culiacanazo:
Can you troubleshoot in someone else's monitor this time with wireless projection and see if the speaker option appears then?
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] jm7josema:
Yes, i've tried in many monitors and TV's and it doesn't appear. I will try with another hub and if It doesn't work neither I would think in a software issue

does it work at 4k@60 Hz (usb-c to hdmi)? Also does vlc/mxplayer works in desktop mode?
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] trinec:
Only FullHD, was heute reason I moved to Samsung... DEX is up to 2K and works much better. It already replaced my Deaktop.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] loganj:
unfortunately Samsung sales only their crap chipset in my country/europe so i refuse to buy it.

i had hopes that emui will work full 4k@60hz. but now it seems that even DEX does not support it....i had high hopes

thank you for the info

[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] flymetothemoon:
I now tried three different devices (ZTE Axon 10, Huawei P30 and a Samsung Tablet.

It works so well that I would like to replace my desktop. The only problem I have is that the mouse does not behave like on a desktop when using office.

Example: Marking text in Word/Textmaker on a Desktop - You click and hold the mouse button to mark text.

Marking text in Word/Textmaker on Android Desktop Mode - You have to click once, then again and holding the button lets you mark text.

Sounds like a small difference, but will disrupt your workflow.

[Fire TV General] KLit75:
I've had the AFTV 3 for a couple of months but only just tried hooking up a usb flash drive. I tried through the OTG + ethernet usb hub and I tried it with just a OTG cable. It doesn't mount the usb drive.

I'm sure I have it hooked up right. I formatted Fat 32 (even though it should do that automatically). It's getting power because the light on the Flash drive turns on.

I'm wondering if the update I got on May 15th removed the USB storage option?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
[Fire TV General] AFTVnews.com:
The Fire TV 3 has never mounted USB drives in a way that all apps can access files on the drive. Your only option is to use an app that can mount the drive itself. Two such apps are ES File Explorer and Total Commander with a mounting addon. Once those apps mount the drive, you'll then be able to select a file and choose a different app to open the file. Some more info here: http://www.aftvnews.com/amazon-fire...rives-keyboards-mice-flirc-ethernet-hubs-etc/
[Fire TV General] KLit75:
Thanks Elias!

I should've read the full article.
[Fire TV General] mntlzr:
For now is there still no way to mount usb drive permanently?

Looks like Gen 3 is more protected then older versions, but maybe we can execute commands like "mount" in some way? (just my naive guess)
[Fire TV General] rainman74:
Sadly not, a Fire TV 3 is only suitable for "paying" apps (Prime, Netflix, etc.), and is much more limited than its predecessors (similar to Apple TV). That's why neither the 3-series nor the Cube is an option for me. I don't like closed systems! :(

[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] steven360:
What kind of question is this? I do not think there is a way to get a boot screen from another device unless you have the phone rooted, and then somehow get the boot animation from a Mate SE, and then replace the default boot animation with the Mate SE one.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] dcraffam:
Its a logical question you act like niether version of the phone can be rooted i bet if it was done you will proably be the second one to do it
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] steven360:
Sorry, what? I can't understand you. When I say what kind of question this is, I mean why would any "logical" person try to get another phone's boot screen onto their phone? What is the purpose of doing so? What do you have to gain out of it? Smh.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] dcraffam:
​

The same reason there is a boot animation app because people like to change things why you acting like a little girl instead of trying to help. Or maby The same reason you unlock the bootloader of a perfectly running phone why does that bother you?? do you understand the words now ???

[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] mrmazak:
I did not change it on mine, but just located to bootanimation.zip

it is in /version/special_cust/BND-L24/hw/usa/media/bootanimation.zip on the L24

each region/ model will have different path.

there is also a second animation located in

\version\region_comm\oversea\media

don't know when it is used . On mine, the one in the hw folder has "wwwhi.honor.us.com " on the bottom of all the images, and that matches the animation being used. The other one has larger images and no addresses on the images.
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] Magendanz:
I'm also interested in this, since I already replaced my boot animation with one that has a dark background from here. The Mate SE logo screen is just the simple HUAWEI logo on a black background, which is less visually jarring (especially with the warning screen that's displayed after the bootloader is unlocked).

I understand that the boot logo on Huawei devices is stored in oeminfo.img, but I haven't figured out how to unpack/repack it for the hi6250 devices.

Hi ,

i'm looking for a nice case for my kaiser. i just want it to be thin and that it saves my kaiser from dust e.g. , but i dont want a case which i have to open first. i want to work with it but i want it save too.

i have thought of a sock , i can get it off fast and it safes the kaiser very good.

i looked around on ebay for some leather cases but i dont like them. i have seen some silicon case but that just fits to the buttom of the kaiser and not the front.

anyone got an idea which sock fits to the kaiser? i couldnt find one made for the kaiser so we need a fitting one which was made for a handy that has nearly same size.

[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo Questions & Answers] Tech0308:
The are multiple reasons why Google camera won't work with on the s5. The first is that the s5 is 32bit compared to the 64 bit of Google camera. Second, the is currently no way to get camera2api support as it requires almost impossible reverse engineering. Plus lineage 15.1 is still unstable and the camera always require extra work
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] DA6030:
Does anyone know of a way to remove the persistent notification that shows whether Wi-Fi calling is currently connected?

I feel like having it show up 2-3 other places in the notification shade (e.g., in the Carrier Name as "T-Mobile" vs. "T-Mobile Wi-Fi Calling") is sufficient notification, such that the persistent notification is really redundant and annoying.

I'm using the Android One variant running stock 8.1 on T-Mobile US, and it seems the responsible app "Moto Settings" can have its notifications snoozed but not permanently hidden.

The problem I'm having is having it even see the OP5T and I can't figure out why. I'm hoping someone here can help out. I've done this with many other phones, but the OP5T Is the only one giving me trouble

Yes I've emerged android tools

As of right now, here is the line I've added to /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules:

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="2a70", ATTR{idProduct}=="9011", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"

Where I got this? `lsusb` shows:

Bus 003 Device 004: ID 2a70:9011

It's the only device that shows up or is removed when I unplug the phone (although it has no label for some reason).

I've even attempted another file I've had to use for other android devices, 80-android.rules and placed the line in there.

I have also removed idProduct from the line just to see if that was conflicting. No luck. Yes, my user is in the plugdev group.

So yeah, I'm out of ideas. Anyone got anything? :(
