[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] SteelPicori:
I have an A5000 but i believe the method should be same.

When using wifi transfer i set it to wifi direct rather than through a router/access point (never had any success with using wifi router), when connecting directly to the camera the phone will complain about no internet access, make sure you pull the drop down and select stay connected anyways (otherwise the note may drop the connection so i can reconnect to your router that does have internet connection)

[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] -Andro1d-:
Hello guys

I've ordered my Nex and cannot wait to get my hands on it (Hurry up gearbest!).

One thing bothers me:

On a youtube video I saw recently the reviewer mentioned that the display of the nex is super amoled. He then explained concerns that if the fingerprint logo - to show the position of the in display finger print reader - is always visible on the display this could result in a burn in on the Nex display.

What are your thoughts about this?

Thanks and BR
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] t7gc7:
It's not always visible, only when you need it or when you shake your phone.

"to avoid burn-in is to ensure that your display doesn’t show the same thing in the same place for LONG periods."
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] -Andro1d-:
So does the Nex have a pocket mode which prevents a wake up? - I mean this thing gets moved a lot in the pocket.:confused:
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] t7gc7:
I would say yes but im not sure where ...
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] t7gc7:

[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] Saloei:
This phone has a sensor that detects when the phone is near your face and shuts the display off when your on a call. This same sensor knows when your phone is in your pocket and prevents the fingerprint from turning on when in your pocket.

Hello

I was following the guide at

At a certain point something went wrong and I tried the recovery process at the page that was linked in the above post:

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1927818

but here I am confused since filenames does not correspond.

My backups are these (citing from the above post again) :

(7 files are saved : recovery.bct, create.bct, bootloader.ebt, blob.log, blob.bin, pt_restore.log and pt_patch.log)

nvflash --resume --rawdeviceread 0 2944 bricksafe.img

nvflash --resume --read 14 factory-config.img

nvflash --resume --read 7 unlock-token.img

but in the recovery guide blob.sos, blob.ebt are needed

which is which in this context ?

thanks a lot

If so, the link is now dead. Anyone could repost it ?

thanks a lot in advance

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nicofari64:
Never mind, I solved

I overlooked the bootloader version, I wasn't on the requested one (the 10.4.2.18) but on the previous one.

To solve I downloaded the original update from Asus

then I flashed it

From there I was able to install the rom successfully

and now my Tf201 is a very handy and usable tablet!

Thanks a lot to the developers and distributors of this rom

and shame to Asus.

This ought to be an official update!!!

[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] d0narr:
Hi,

i had TWRP before, but because of the lack of OTA compatibillity, i removed it.

So i am now trying to find an way to get MAGISK running without needing TWRP.

I read a lot about this particular way, but in my mind i am at an dead end...

so what i found:

patching boot.img and reflash it, sounds plausible, but how shall i get an dump, without root :/

using HWOTA, but i do not understand how it should work, it seems to use prepatched images, but i am wondering if they are compatible with the latest firmware (bla-l29 8.0.0.145(c432)), as they are using an modified kernel? (sry no expert in android images^^)

Thanks in advance

[General Questions and Answers] greenys':
Hi there. So my problem is quite...extraordinary.

All I want is to use my 128 GB Micro SD card without errors. However, no matter what file system or configuration I used on it, it just won't work. First it won't allow me to write on it. Then it does but won't allow me to delete from it. Then I need to rescan the contents on it for apps to be able to see media. The card is in perfect condition and without flaws I assure you.

The file systems I tried so far are ext3, ext4, FAT32, NTFS, F2FS and VFAT. Tried multiple custom ROMs including Lineage, Pixel Experience and currently dotOS. It seems that file system support depends on the OS' kernel. I've given up on ext4 and F2FS thanks to the problems I mentioned before. So now I want to format my card as EXFAT. It has much better performance and compatibility than FAT32, NTFS or VFAT. Not to mention these three have significant performance change/spikes while writing and deleting. Only problem that not all kernels support EXFAT and so far neither custom ROM that I used had support built in its kernel. My latest developments is that I found a kernel out of 10 that does support EXFAT. It runs by the name Xenial. I just don't really like custom kernels so I want to avoid using them in the future if that's possible.

Postscript: Changing ROM, kernel, firmware, whatever is not a problem. I've bricked my device thousand times and came to learn how to restore basically anything through TWRP. Either way, so far none of them ROM or kernel seemed to fix my problem. Still using FAT32 on my 128GB Micro sd and moving files as 4 GB blocks....

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asadman:
Hello,

Im new here and im not sure if here is the correct place to ask questions but,

I have a Huawei Y5 II and i was trying to put android 6.0 or higher but i had alot of problems.

I first unlocked my bootloader and then installed a custom recovery TWRP and CWM on it, but i never succeeded in booting into one of them.

What happened is that i saw in a post here on xda that with a certain command in fastboot mode i can remove the custom recoveries ( because they didnt work at all) but when i did it i ended up formatting my whole system,cache and boot.

Now my phone just stays on the huawei logo when i turn it on and nothing else.

i tried to install a custom recovery again throught the fastboot mode using adb on my pc, but when i press the vol up+ power my phone just keeps restarting and restarting and staying on the logo.

Thanks in advance for your time spent on reading my problem i just wanna use my phone again cuz i love it. <3

I have a friend who just visited his parents in Taiwan and while he was there he bought HTC Touch Dual and now he is back in Aussie land.

Is it dependent on the ROM? Please advice and let me know if more information is required.

I can't read a single word. I live in Shanghai and I've been unable to find any places that can help me "flash" the rom into English.

I've noticed there are quite a few different ROMS created by senior members of this site, but which one to use?

Also, I've been told that the Taiwan version with 16 keys on keypad is unable to flash into English properly.

Please...if anyone can help, it is much appreciated!

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Alekos:
Okay so some background, using Pixel 2 XL 64gb, it's 2 months old. I've had every Nexus/Pixel since Nexus-4 so been flashing ROMs for 5+ years.

I flash a lot of different ROMs, and go back and forth from DP4, to Custom ROMs and 8.1

Yesterday, I used Deuces script to go from DP4 To Nitrogen. The only difference is I used the new TWRP version that recently came out. This is when I started to see the issue with slot a. Any custom ROM I now try will not boot, it will just stay at the loading screen. DU, Nitrogen - it doesn't matter.

Before yesterday, I had no issues.

So when I flash 8.1 Image using flash-all.bat, I now notice it is using slot b, when before it always used slot a.

I tried to set slot a to the active slot, but when I flash factory image, it says it will use slot b.

Other issues that I'm experiencing is now Android won't update itself through System Update, it fails. Also, if I flash DP4 and opt-out , and go to System Updates, Android tries to download and install 8. 1 but fails. All Updates amd downgrades have to now be done using bootloader or adb.

So I am hoping someone can provide some insight into this. I've tried flashing 8.1 factory image with Deuces Script and it works, but reverts to slot b. I just want to get back to a stock slot set-up, could it be slot a is corrupt?

In fastboot, run the command "fastboot --set-active=a" and then run the flash-all script. Once the script finishes running, try to reattempt what you were trying to achieve before.

If I go into the settings I can turn the notification sound on or off but either way it does not make a sound, neither can I select a sound.

I had a similar issue on the Mate 10 Pro but on that I could set a custom sound but it always played twice.

Thanks for any help or suggestions that don't involve using a custom rom, rooting or changing to a 3rd party app.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Jake.S:
make sure alarm sound is not muted/media sound.

Since some times apps go after alarm volume or media volume and if one of these are muted, you won't get any notification sound.

Cheers, I've checked all that but all are turned up. All other apps make sounds, just not official twitter. I've tried uninstall and reinstall too.

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] sipollo:
Hi, i was wondering about the origin of "dot pattern" noticeable in orange/yellow/blue objects photographed by google camera.

I found out that this does not occur on front camera. With Camera2test i noticed that there is a Camera2 API key "android.sensor.availableTestPatternModes".

His value is "0,1,2,4" for back camera and "0,1,2,3" for front camera. Is there a way to modify this key (with a Magisk module or within the apk) to see if this could be causing this "dot pattern"?

I ask the developers if it's possible to verify this thing.

In this occasion i would like to thank [MENTION=2712580]cstark27[/MENTION] [MENTION=5074663]SerJo87[/MENTION] [MENTION=4860033]Arnova8G2[/MENTION] for their great work.

It happens with all Gcams with hdr+ and hdr+ enhanced.

The only way to reduce them is playing with noise reduction. In several versions there is a menu called "tuning back cam". If you set "custom chroma denoise" to higher values you won't (almost) have dots but quality will be reduced a bit.

The root cause of this dots is a bad camera 2 api implementation by the OEM. The only fix would be that someone modify the required library for your phone adding support for standard camera2 api RAW format. Playing with libpatcher settings on Gcams would only reduce them a bit.

- Mi A1 Camera

- Mi A2 Camera

- Google Camera

- Snap Camera (Lineage)

- Snap2 Camera (CyanogenMod)

NOT a exclusive Magisk version, it's system flash:

- Magisk provide portrait option on back camera (see above)

Mods by me :

-app launcher name (clear view of what camera u launch)

-app package name (avoid compatibility with another cam app like Gcam)

-authorization process (automatic without crash)

-icons

Tested on this excellent aosp based rom :

https://xdaforums.com/redmi-note-5-pro/development/rom-aospextended-rom-v5-5-t3798293

it's supposed to work on many custom roms, but i can't try them all, so please report wich one u use.

If you already have Snap camera (lineage) in your custom rom do not select.

Flash with twrp (Aroma Installer)

No root users version bugs:

-MiA1 and MiA2: Portrait mode back camera not available (portrait mode works on MiA2 front camera)

Rooted users (Magisk 16) version bug :

-MiA1 portrait mode crash (but the picture is OK with blur effect)

Many options works for each camera : i just can't list all of them here ..
