I believe this is a bug. I got around this by a long winded method. I selected the "star field" thumbnail so it covers the screen. At this point I took a screen shot by pressing Fn + R and then you can go to your gallery app, select the screen shot image, crop anything you don't want such as the bar at the top and then set the edited screen shot as your background. Hope that helps.

Thanks for the suggestion. That's a good workaround.

Also would like to know root status.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] juntulis:
Root.

I installed 3.1.1.0 twrp, not the 3.2.1.0. and did format data in twrp, reboot recovery and then install last magisk 16.4 zip. wipe, and reboot system.

ROOT SUCCESS ! :)
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] ShikseWTF:
root works but twrp can't mount data atm and you also can't install any magisk mods right now, at least for me. So I don't think it works atm

It is not true. I have magisk 16.4 twrp 3.1.1.0 and couple of mods installed with no probs.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] ShikseWTF:

I had no problems tbh. Melina TWRP 3.2.1, Magisk 16.0 and couple of mods for it, everything works just fine. There are some bugs that came with Android 8.0 but that's not limited to LG G6. That's why i was hoping we'll get 8.1 straightaway, LG had more than enough time and reasons for that.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] basicreece:
Got it working for me too.

[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Killua96:

[LG G6 Questions and Answers] kbuss:
excuse me the noob question guys. I come from another phone.

so rooting this phone simply on the stock rom is not possible?

i mean only using something like CF autoroot, and not having anything extra on the phone?

you must install magisk and exposed for root to work?

(they have features I absolutely dont need and they are too complicated for me, i only need root for some apps to work, nothing more)

thx :highfive:
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Arak0n:
You don't need xposed, and you don't need to use any of the magisk extra features either. Install magisk, boom, rooted.

[ZTE Nubia Z17  Questions & Answers] qcdlq:
The Stock rom didn't has a section to encrypt device. And when i tried to use other roms like Mokee 71.2/81.0, LineageOS 14.1 by BeYkeRYkt, and RR 5.8.5 by arceoxis, they all failed in a same way. When I press the button to start encrypt, it just reboot into a black screen with a green mascot of the Android, and about 5s later, the device just boot in to system and did nothing.

Actually, I once imperfectly encrypted the device with RR 5.8.5, but it just encrypted the /Data partition. A truly successful encryption should be encrypted more than just /Data, like /System. But now I can't even do this imperfectly encrypt again. I have no idea how to solve this problem.

Thanks.

[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] johnjingle:
Yes you can install apps to SD and there are currently no custom ROMs available yet.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] jhedfors:
I understand that to do that, you need to remove encryption, and format the sd card as adoptable storage. Can we do that with this phone?

Use Apps2SD: All in One Tool to create Mount scripts on the second partition.

You can now use link2sd to move your apps.

You may need to keep Apps2SD if you have mount problems on boot.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] jhedfors:
OK, thanks. This app requires you to root your device. I have not rooted yet, as it currently requires to unlock bootloader which voids your warranty.

[Android Head-Units] aleealraee:
I do apologize if this is not really the proper category to start this topic. I am not really sure where to begin.

I have an unbranded Android unit now. It’s an Intel Sofia model without a DVD drive. The unit itself, build quality wise, is actually decent. It’s the operating system, and the lack of Sofia support that ultimately lead to wanting to scrap it altogether. Then I realized that it may be possible to replace the Sofia board with a RPi 3. It would give me significantly more performance and open up the Linux OS in my vehicle. I do realize that the unit itself is really a two part unit: MCU and motherboard, but I am not sure how interfacing it with the RPi would happen.

So question is: Would it be possible to control the MCU, and if so, does anyone have information they could share that would help me along on this project.

Also: Could the OS on the current Sofia board be replaced with a full Linux distro instead?

Thanks everyone for your help. I don’t know what I would do without XDA.

[General Questions and Answers] morphexxx:
Hi there.

I got myself a Samsung ACE phone, so that I have a backup Android phone in case my main phone breaks.

I've tried playing around with flashing some old tablets etc. before, but wasn't able to complete the process.

So, I was wondering if there is a simple, step-by-step way to flash a relatively new Android version to my phone?

I see that for example banking apps require a non-rooted phone, so I guess rooting the phone and installing versions of Android that don't come from a phone vendor isn't seen as safe. So what's the safest, relatively new version of Android I can install on my phone?

I'm upgrading to the newest version of Ubuntu now, so if I can flash my phone using Ubuntu and a USB data cable, that would be sweet.

TIA,

Morten
[Android Head-Units] yu7rea:
Hello everyone!

I've recently bought and setup my brand new and shiny Xtrons TE103AP 10.1" HU and unfortunately came to realize one very ugly truth about this particular unit.

You see, although

encrypting

your device is an option in the OS, it simply does

NOT

work (I have an email from Xtrons confirming this) and locks up the device completely, so that the only way to recover it is to do a FULL factory reset :(

Now, you can imagine what would happen if your HU got stolen from your vehicle, with all of your email accounts logged in, not to mention your storage for example (Drive, DropBox, Box, etc.)

Having to type in a PIN or a password, everytime one starts a car, is plain stupid and irritating. And not to mention the automatic screen lock.

I want to keep my eyes on the road and not mess with logins, PINs and unlocking my device every so often while I'm driving and/or starting my vehicle.

On the other hand, if/when the device gets stolen it loses power completely and is therefore booted from scratch (cold boot vs Oreo's "smart sleep mode"), so by design the OS will prompt for a PIN/Password to unlock the device and decrypt the device.

And that is where the problem lies. Apparently, quote: "these units cannot be encrypted and encryption will not be added to them, even through subsequent firmware/OS upgrades", according to Xtrons technical support.

So my question is, is there anyone familiar enough with these units to answer whether there's another ROM that CAN be loaded onto the existing hardware, that will have the same functionality as the stock MTCE_GS_V2.78_3 ROM + support

device encryption

, or is this really some kind of a hardware related issue and we're basically stuck?

Any feedback and assistance on this matter will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks! :cool:

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] ab1702:
I suffered with poor a2dp Bluetooth streaming for quite a while on a GS (xtrons) android 6 headunit and on my current GS android 8 headunit.

Last week I did the sound mod with the modded mcu and improved amplifier app which improved my sound quality dramatically.

I then set about trying to improve the poor a2dp sound yet again and managed to kind of get it near perfect but not quite.

It was down to the sound settings on the EQ on my iPhone. I Bluetooth stream my music from my phone using Apple Music. I went into settings and then music and in there is the EQ setting. This has many settings like rock, pop, etc etc and mine was previously set by me to Bass Booster so my phone was set to a Bass setting and then the headunit is set more to a Bass setting so this must have been too much as I always got a distorted sound in the background when using a2dp. So in the EQ on my Iphone I set it to off. Instantly the sound is 10 times better as now it’s just my headunit producing bass etc etc. This has bugged me for over a year including my old headunit and now compared to what it were like before I’m finally happy with the quality of music through the a2dp app.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] sev:
very interesting. I just checked my iphone and the EQ was set to 'electronic' I changed it to flat. Lets see how that does.

Did you do the 7thfloor mod? Did that, at all, help the a2dp streaming situation?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] sev:
the EQ change made no difference. still distortion at the upper frequency range.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] ab1702:
No, the mod I have done is the bd375 sound processor mod with the modded GS mcu and new amplifier app.

Once I completed that then I fine tuned the EQ settings to my liking on the headunit. Then on my iPhone I went to settings and music and turned the EQ off. I tried all the EQ settings on my iPhone but nothing was as good as when I set it to OFF.

Now I’ve done this I wouldn’t say the sound is perfect through a2dp Bluetooth but it’s a hell of a lot better than what it were before.

Followed all the steps and at the end where I should be rebooting back to the system, I'm bootlooped saying "Your device system cant be checked for system corruption etc etc". So I entered fastboot and typed the command "fastboot oem lock" as it is what I should do based on the error the bootloop is giving but when I did that everytime I turned my phone on it would only just blink for a second then I get nothing.

[LG G6 Questions and Answers] christopherrrg:
Unfortunately if you want root you'll have to keep TWRP on your phone as the stock kernel panics when dm verity gets triggered and thus creates a bootloop. So in order to use a stock rom you'll have to A) find a custom kernel that supports stock rom and disables dm verity. Or B) just use a stock rom all together. (Full kdz flash) Or C) obviously stay with custom roms but I figured you'd want an answer to the specific problem.
