I really appreciate it if you made a flashable zip for twrp because I dont know how to make one and I have tried any other way to restore except flashing it...
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] levone1:
Try this... Boot to recovery, wipe cache and dalvik, flash zip, wipe cache and dalvik again, (I can't remember if it's in the script already or not), reboot.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] Kianush:
Unfortunately it did not work and still the phone comes up only with a black screen and one time "Systemui has stopped" error!

I really dont understand why this could be happening, somehow the phone is not able to run systemui from the apk...

flashing the rom with all those ta_poc/rootkerner/blah blah is not an option for me....
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] Kianush:
can it be related to using overlays or xposed module?

Im not sure if i use any of them but i also dont know how to force disable them!
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] levone1:
Could be..

I didn't think Xposed worked with 85. You can go to /data/app in file manager in recovery and delete anything you think might be causing a problem, (anything that relates to SystemUI - status bar, nav bar, qs, etc)...
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] Kianush:
there is no data/app directory

maybe you mean data/data?!

xposed worked actually but i was not using .85 i was on 34.4.A.2.19 and yes I also tried my own systemui instead of yours in the flashable zip in case that .85 is any different (which is not)

im gonna use flashtool to dirty flash the firmware again but I dont know which parts to exclude flashing to prevent data/twrp/apps/Magisk from being overwritten...
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] PiixJu:
Exclude everything except system. So flashtool should show only system.sin under content.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] Kianush:
not even flashing system worked...gonna try flashing whole rom again....damn...

I'm going to try it now. Let ya know how it goes. *Fingers crossed.

**UPDATE - Ok. Well. Installed it, ran the .cab. Rebooted. Now it just sits on the Windows Mobile boot screen. Haven't given it a WHOLE lot of time yet, but ActiveSync won't pick up the phone so I can't reinstall the ROM. Any suggestions?
[HTC Excalibur] littleclown:
Just install some original ROM (from your brand) with the bootloader mode, and then you can install latest WM 6.1.. and don't play stupid games anymore ;)

The default res is perfect to me... on VGA everything will become more small and unreadable :).
[HTC Excalibur] Reeg:
I got it back up. (That's what she said! Haha!) Anyways, back to 6.1 the way I had it. Would like to get the resolution better though or at least try it just to see what it looks like.
[HTC Excalibur] AbsoluteDesignz:
Just changed a 2 registry values and my phone works fine in the higher resolution (been about 30 seconds, so far so good)

heres the ones u need to change from the VOX thread

Change [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\ Display\GPE\LogicalPixelsY] and LogicalPixelsX to 96 in decimal

when not on the homescreen using the colored battery indicator icons and such the icons don't show, they posted dll's for that in the VOX forum and I'm trying them out now, I'll let you all know.
[HTC Excalibur] Reeg:
So what EXACTLY did you do? Appreciate the help.
[HTC Excalibur] AbsoluteDesignz:
thats it...just changed those two values, rebooted and it worked...issues with STK and the top white icons but the homescreen works fine and the phone itself works fine, biggest issue is with the system icons, if anyone knows how to mess with DLLs and is trying this out I would love the fixes to those issues. Because it looks a lot better this way.

Oh and I highly suggest if you go over to the VOX thread DO NOT install any of those cabs, they forced me to restore my phone...twice because I had to try it again from a fresh boot.
[HTC Excalibur] jsp_m:
works like a charm, but there are issues in display of icons (look rough) and the top bar displays white squares.

I switched back, did not stick to spot the other issues, hope it will be resolved soon so we could all enjoy a better looking screen (more items visible)
[HTC Excalibur] ghostwheel:
works nicely

This works very nicely for me.

changed:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\ Display\GPE\LogicalPixelsY] and LogicalPixelsX to 96 in decimal

and

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\cxVscr

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\cyHscr

to 3

(the last gives narrower scrollbars)

The start menu now contains 3 rows with 5 icons each. So more icons are displayed at a time. For some reason, only 2 icons are displayed on each screen, though, so 3rd row has only 2 icons...
[HTC Excalibur] littleclown:
Dudes. This just makes icons and text smaller :).

If you don't believe me - try with some white sqare - 200X200px and see it on a diferent "resolutions" - its the same :).

This makes text unreadable... its too small for me.
[HTC Excalibur] AbsoluteDesignz:
i can read the text fine. everything is fine for me, I'm just looking/waiting for a fix with the system icons, but I can deal with them. I had my phone on for like 12 or so hrs now and no ill effects as of yet. So yea...we'll see.
[HTC Excalibur] Reeg:
Yah, I just tried the RegEdit and all my icons look like crap. It would be nice if we could get this resolution without the icons looking jagged, the black bar on the bottom of the screen, and the white squares on top.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ApertureGuy:
Hey there, I'm new to the XDA forums!

Recently, I unlocked my Huawei Honor 7S' bootloader using the manufacturer's provided key.

After this, however, I couldn't find a TWRP image for my specific device so I used the TWRP image for the Huawei Honor 7 (foolish, I know)

Now, the device doesn't respond to the recovery or fastboot key combinations, but does show a charging indicator when I plug it in.

I wasn't aware that it was possible to hard brick a device by flashing a different recovery, but here's what I've tried already:

Things that I have tried:

Connecting the device to my PC and running HiSuite

The issue with this was that I cannot boot into recovery to do a system restore.

Using adb or fastboot (Windows as well as Linux)

Again, the issue is that I can't boot into bootloader, fastboot or recovery.

Is there any hope for me? Did I hardbrick the device by flashing the incorrect image? Are there any tools that I can to unbrick the device?

Please let me know, thanks.

Dears,

with firmware G965FXXU1BRF8_CL13792060_QB18608589_REV01 when screen is locked and display goes off nothing happens pressing power button, screen doesn't wake up.

The issue happens only when USB cable is not plugged.

Nothing happens connecting USB cable, so maybe phone gets stuck, I can only soft reset.

Magisk 16.6 is installed, but I don't think it could cause this issue.

Any suggestions?

Tks!

Hi,

With miui (9-10) I have no problems. With custom ROMs, yes.

Randomly the screen is blocked without touching anything.

Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zb9E06-5SsE

The process that I follow:

1. Wipes

2. Install firmware (not always, to try something different) -> rom -> gapps.

3. Wipe dalvik and restart.

Any idea of the problem?

Best regards.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] Fil in XDA:
What did you wipe in TWRP? Flash firmware first then wipe system, data, dalvik and cache. Then flash rom and arm64 nano or pico gapps (if you're flashing AOSP roms) and reboot. If the error still occurs, try different roms but I assume that this is a user error.

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] AkCullen:
I've been having power drain issues for a couple of months now, have tried almost everything but issue isn't resolved. Will replacing the motherboard solve the issue? Coz I suspect a wakelock issue. Below are what I've tried.

The battery has started to drain big time and the Android system is consuming most of the power.

1. Calibrating my battery.

2. Factory reset to January update.

3. Stopping the apps running in the background.

4. Turning off location, wifi and internet.

5. Tried disabling backup of photos.

6. Disabled app preview messages under Google.

7. Tried replacing the physical battery at the service center.

8. Currently running on the June 2018 patch.

Despite doing all this the battery drains big time, even when it's idle, when I'm sleeping.

I'm unable to upload screenshot because it keeps saying that there's a network issue. But the screenshot stats say that the android os consumes most of the battery and SoT was 30 minutes. Phone was idle for most of the time. It came down 100-20% in a few hours.

Android OS is eating away most of the battery.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] ProchyGaming:
No, motherboard replacement won't fix the issue. It looks like there's an issue with deep sleep. try a custom kernel and see if that helps
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] KB_Thailand:
While my drain is not as bad as the OPs, it is bad. I have taken to turning on Airplane mode when the phone is not in use. Overnight drain is 20%+ when idle if not in Airplane mode, 1% if it is. SoT has gone from the original 6-7 hours to about 2.5 to 3 hours. Battery health is at 96% according to battery app. Held awake seems to be very high if not in Airplane mode, with almost 3 hours overnight when the phone is not in use. Main battery use is from Kernel and Phone. HOPEFULLY these issues will be resolved with 8.1 or P, but I won't hold my breath.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] AkCullen:
Unfortunately none of these issues were addressed in 8.1 and I'm not sure if they even recognized this issue, for it to be solved in future updates.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] barrack1:
You're probably the only one or one of the very few with bad battery drain (80% in just a few hours while idle) on the stock rom so you probably got a lemon or its damaged from a fall.

Flashing the Jan 2018 rom wasn't smart at all since there was alot of news that the first Oreo update was very buggy and was pulled. 8.1 is also buggy and also got pulled. Best to flash the stock April rom for less problems.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] AkCullen:
Thank you for your response. The phone does not have any physical damage. Flashing the Jan 2018 rom was a move by the service center despite telling them it wouldn't help.

I managed to figure out using GSAM that the issue is being caused by 700000.ssusb kernel wakelock and I have no clue how to fix it. Do you have a workaround for it?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] kudos1uk:
As this option is USB related, you could try changing the usb mode in developer options:

Settings>System>Developer options>Select USB configuration - change it to "charging" (I note mine is currently MTP)

I'm 100% guessing here but maybe if it's set to charging it won't be looking for OTG devices?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] AkCullen:
I've tried setting it to all possible modes under USB configuration including "charging", but doesn't seem to help.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] kudos1uk:
OK, it was only a thought.

I did read on another thread someone say they plugged and OTG adaptor (no OTG device attached) and it stopped the problem, not a solution but worth a try, if you have one.

Have you inspected carefully with a torch inside the USB hole for any debsit that has got in there?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] AkCullen:
Yes I read about that work around too. Haven't tried it yet as I do not have an OTG adapter. Will post a response once I try.

Haven't inspected the USB port either, will do.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] kudos1uk:
Can you try this:

Reboot phone, when its rebooted, plug the charger in and out once.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] AkCullen:
Will do and update the thread.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] kudos1uk:
Most of the threads have a reboot method that works for the user but they all vary a little bit, this works for this user:

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] AkCullen:
I'm just noticing this today,

When I click on the USB configuration and set it to "Charging" from "MTP", it doesn't actually change.

The pop up that shows different options shows that it's in charging but it's actually still in MTP. I'm not sure if this could be the cause.

Do you know how to fix this?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] AkCullen:
Screenshots for USB configuration not getting switched.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] kudos1uk:
You need to back out of developer options and go back in again to see the change.

Plug the charger in

Change mode to charging

Back out of developer options

Re enter developer option - should no be on charging.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] KB_Thailand:
Plugging in, changing the selection, backing out and going back in does not show changes: Change setting to Charging->back->back. Developer options-> Select USB Configuration shows Media Transfer Protocol, while the Selection itself shows charging. (it's plugged in, so makes sense) I tried changing this to Music Transfer Protocol last night and it made zero difference in the battery drain. I just tried the plug in, turn off, unplug thing. I will let you know if I see any difference. USB port is clean under 5x magnification. NETLINK and timerfd shows more activity than 7000000.ssusb on my device, but all of them are higher than they should be I think.. NETLINK shows 324644 wakelocks!!! Timerfd shows 65337 and 7000000.ssub shows 33256! The thing is, the phone has been used very little since the last full charge!
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] kudos1uk:
That's odd, I dont have the issue and when I choose "charging" it stays on that setting even after unplugging the charger. Each time I re-enter developer options it's still set to charging.

The fact yours changed links in with the wakelock, your phone appears to think something is plugged in which is why I asked you to check for debris in the port. I'm wondering if you have a damaged usb port?

If it's software related, I don't think resetting it will help, I'm no expert but I'm assuming as its a kernel wakelock & I'm sure a reset has no effect on the kernel? maybe others can advise.

I wonder if flashing the stock Kernel would help, I'm only thinking out loud, I'm sure others can give better flashing advice.

Do the wakelocks show up while charging?

Your next step really has to be to post a dump on the official thread, a few people are complaining about this battery drain but nobody has posted a dump to the official thread yet.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] AkCullen:
Yes that's exactly what's happening as described in first point.

I observed NETLINK sends more wakelocks but if you see the time it kept the system awake in the background would be comparitively less.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] AkCullen:
I understand that it remains in "charging" for you. That's what is differentiating this issue. I'm sure all of us who have 70000.ssusb running would be facing the same problem. There's no debris in the port.

I'm already on stock kernel and ROM and issue has been running.

The wakelocks would not show up while charging.

Like I had previously mentioned, I'll post the dump over the weekend, can you share the link to the original thread?

Thanks for your response mate, no one else even seems to care about this issue.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] kudos1uk:
I know you are on stock, I was just wonder if reflashing the kernel would help, only a thought.

Ok, I am going to try one more time, then give up on XDA. Just got a couple of errors from Bad Gateway to FORBIDDEN trying to respond to this post and upload screenshots. This has been going on for over a week and it does NOT seem to be getting any better! Oh, and their CONTACT forms are broken, requiring an entry you cannot enter because the field is not there!

On my device, all of these appear to have about the same level of activity. In 3.5 hours, I've already used 9% of the battery, and other than 11 minutes of screen time to take the shots, + 3 minutes to read a couple of messages, the phone has basically been sitting idle. This sucks, and if it is Android causing the issue (which it appears to be as it is in many support threads for many different phones), then it is time for me to seriously reconsider Apple, and I HATE THAT! I don't use my phone for a lot, but constantly having to either charge it every night or carry a cable during the day is just frustrating as h3ll, especially when 'out of the box' it got 7 hours of SoT and easily went 2 days between charges, using only about 50% of the battery. If I thought going back to Nougat would fix this, I would revert in a heartbeat, but others have stated that this did not fix the problem. :(

I tried almost every rom and kernel combinations possible. .. Even tried android p treble. Nothing worked. The same wakelocks 7000000.ssusb, netlink, hvdcpl_wl, timer fd etc etc appears in every rom. So we can say its not a rom issue, neither a kernel issue. The only work around I got was to use otg adapter which i posted in other thead. Or to use a kernel that supports wakelock blocking. I am currently using liquid remix with metapheonix kernel and blocked the wakelocks using mtweaks. And somehow manage to get 5 hrs sot on normal usage. Mostly youtube.

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] KB_Thailand:
And suddenly, after months of battery drain and trying all sorts of workarounds, my battery usage is back to 'normal', using about 30% for a day. It HAD to be one of the updated apps because the last OTA (August 5th) did not fix the problem, though which app it was I cannot say as many were updated this past 2-3 weeks.

Hopefully this will remain 'fixed' and it is fixed for the rest of you having this issue! :)
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] BtB:
I'm glad it works better for you, but there's a lesson learnt for others with "battery drain issues"... in 99% of the case it's one of the apps you are using.

So doing factory reset, flashing roms, etc... will never help if you re-install the same app.

My advice to whoever has "drain", factory reset, do not install any app, and check how it goes... If no more drain, you know it's one of your crappy apps... up to you to find which one by installing one by one and checking... painful.... but well, you are the one using crappy apps after all :P
