[Honor 7X  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Dil3mm4:
This overlay APK it's "born" because of the necessity to overcome missing overlays (thanks Huawei, love ya xoxo) under /vendor/overlay .

What it does exactly?

Nothing more than adding AOSP overlay matching our device capabilities and also, inherits Bond power profile.

Do I need it?

Yes.

It will fix Battery stats problems and add compatible features for your BND over GSI.

This will conisderably enhance your experience on every GSI ROM giving better functionality overall.

Why you did that?

Because I'm sick of inheriting stuff that belongs to /vendor, in system.

Project Treble it's all about separating vendor implementation from system.

So why we should keep adding OEM stuff in that doesn't belong no more in /system

I have XYZ device with ZYX firmware can I use it?

As long as you're on a BND-*** device (with a non-EMUI firmware), you're good to go.

Otherwise

DO NOT USE IT FOR THE LOVE OF MANKIND

.

I don't have BND, but I want it on my Huawei device ! :( :(

Well, that's fine, join the Telegram group [MENTION=595670]GSI[/MENTION]_HI6250, so that you could help me with stock files grabbing to make an overlay for your device. :)

TWRP install-able overlay AKP

This zip is the same APK as the op. Just it is in a twrp flash template, with the permissions set by the script

The next step is either a twrp with this built in or (more easily done an aroma installer to cover all the devices this overlay method works for)

V2 zip is a test for multiple device flash-able version. It still only has BND overlay APK in it though. Need feedback if it has any install problems for anyone.

The remover at this point only works if install was done with V2

current permissions are set at on

Iam using openkirin rom(pie ROM) will this work on it,and will this enable volte and save battery?
[Honor 7X  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] mrmazak:
This has nothing to do with volte

And nothing to do with battery life, as far as battery, it only deals with the displayed battery percentage.

And at the end, not sure if it will even work on pie.
[Honor 7X  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] cyrusalmighty:
Would this do anything on Dil3mmas Descendant Onedotfour Pie rom or is the tweak built in already?
[Honor 7X  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] mrmazak:
Built in already
[Honor 7X  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] optionalmgrr.la:
So I use them also with OpenKirin or just for gsi like aosp?
[Honor 7X  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] mrmazak:
afaik these overlays have been included into the main tree from phh, while ago. So any recent (3 months or so) builds should have this included.

openkirin has there own methods to deal with these things, so dont think these are needed on their builds either

Hello everyone,

i've got the Problem, the my girlfriend phone is broken an the display is black. Now i want to rescue their pictures but there a lockscreen with pattern. Now my idea was that i download the custom recovery image for this device, install it and delete the gesture.key. Before i can do it i must unlock the Bootloader from "htcdev.com"... there is only one problem... the command "fastboot oem get_identifier_token" said: oem unlock Turn Off! :crying::crying::crying::crying:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>fastboot oem unlock

How can i unlock this option?

Or is there any other options that i can safe the Pictures from the phone?

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moataz El Sakkar:
So I found a brand new Xperia SP at a local retailer and I like it's unique looks and slick pocketable size,

but I don't know how usable it could be in 2018, Android never been my thing but it's running Jellybeen which has I think has aged now..

So in brief how usable will it be (with the official rom) given that my usage is fairly light and revolves around:

1. Most importantly IMAP Email (Anyone kindly confirm that the mail client still works nowadays).

2.Some light web browsing (Stack overflow, Twitter, Youtube (Rarely)), How is it's web performance overall ?

3.Some music playing and Light PDF Viewing (My Nokia E66 handles those quite easily, So I think it will have no problem).

As I said I am not good with Android so I won't be able to Flash ROMs, Root, etc...

So we are talking official ROM as is..

Any Thoughts
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emcom:
Hi !

I used the Xperia SP as a daily driver last year for a few months, mostly because I bought some other cheap chinese phone and it had ****ty ROM - so before I found new ROM, I switched to Xperia SP for some time. Here's what I think :

1. Most importantly IMAP Email (Anyone kindly confirm that the mail client still works nowadays).

I'm pretty sure it will work without problems, in case you faced anything not working you can install some alternative e-mail client from the Play Store, like Aquamail (brilliant piece of software, and free for up to 2 e-mail accounts)

2.Some light web browsing (Stack overflow, Twitter, Youtube (Rarely)), How is it's web performance overall ?

For this it should be also OK, and actually I'd recommend using Firefox Focus (exceptionally light browser with built-in advertising filter!)

3.Some music playing and Light PDF Viewing (My Nokia E66 handles those quite easily, So I think it will have no problem).

Music sound absolutely great on this phone, as it is always for Sony devices. PDFs... no problem.

The major problem might be overweight set of Google apps. They cause weaker phones to slow down, so at the beginning it's actually good to spend some time on actual configuration of the phone (de-bloating, switching off unnecessary things etc.)

And it would be really nice to consider flashing Lineage 14.1 or 15.1 switched to Android Go. It's really not that difficult, but gives great results.

And actually it's possible to use the phone without Google Apps at all (this is what I did) - it depends on your needs. First, think about what actually would you like to use the phone for, and it might come out that you don't need Google at all :) (for the things you mentioned, I don't think you need it...)
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wyjek:
Hi, I don't recommend this phone with 4.3 stock ROM, but I do recommend it with 6.0 AOSP or CyanogenMod, it just works far more better (Nougat and Oreo are worse). So, it depends if you want to try installing a custom ROM, it's not so hard, and if you want, I can try helping you with it ;)
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucasgta95:
actually xperia sp can only run smooth without gapps, but i suffer alot because of it, if you have a better phone then you could use xperia sp for app development if u are a dev or as spare phone
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iekuta:
You can use it without Gapps pretty smooth enough for daily basis on even Android 9.0 Pie :)
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zsheoran:
Then, wich is the best Rom for Xperia SP (Faster, good Batery, and daily use)
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jurko217:
Fast, daily, battery friendly

I have used for this experience stable XenonHD 8.1. Best rom i ever had ! You dont need any tweaks, this rom is pretty fast, battery friendly and good daily experience. Plus - you can choose no navbar but gestures. Newest root solution magisk 20.1 - no issues and try with MindGapps or only Yalp Store apk.

If you turn on Ambient Display, battery drain will be knowable. I will recommend turn this function off.

My second will be LineageOS 15.1.

But lineage 15.1 have newest security updates, obviously i prefer XenonHD. Try by yourself and reply to me your exp and comparison.

Too good is AOSP-CAF 7.0, this rom have things straight from hardware compositioner (Qualcomm), so you can have fun with their options and is pretty fast.

I have tried new stable AOSP 9 and LineageOS 16.0, but i cant mark it stable, because they have still some issues, what you see after some days using, see my comment at AOSP 9, we must wait for some update.

Hey all!

I have a Huawei P20 lite and when I plug in my Logitech G231 Prodigy it doesn't recognise it and just uses the speakers. If I use a different headphone it works fine, but I really don't like these cheap things. I've heard about some app called SoundAbout, but it's not compatible with android 8. Also, the headphone works fine in my laptop + old phone & used to work on my P20 lite (which is a month old) but since today it's just not detected. Can anyone please help me out on this?
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] JimiGEE:
I stumbled across this article today

https://www.techdroidtips.com/root-lg-v35-thinq/

Now, my mentality is - if it isn't on here yet, then I am very cautious on trying it. BUT just in case, because I LOVE this phone - has anyone tried rooting this phone and is that article accurate?!

EDIT:

I at least tried the unlock bootloader and it appears that you can not even get into the bootloader of this sucker. I have tried via ADB - which just reboots the phone after you apply the CMD command. I have also tried holding down certain button combos with the phone off, while plugging it into the PC.

I'm sure someone will pick up the points I havent
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] KrewCial:
Sweet, I'm in the same boat as the topic started. :P

So let me add a question:

The right LED above the screen keeps blinking every ~4 seconds. Since I'm colourblind it's kind of hard for me to tell what colour it is, but its either yellow or green. :P

What does it mean and how do I turn it off (I know I can change some stuff in Sounds and Notifications, would that be the solution)?

Thanks and cheers cdyat for answering alot of those questions. :P
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] cdyat:
**It flashes when you have signal and are connected to the network. The colour changes with the status. Its green normally but changes to yellow when you have a missed call / message / reminder etc. There is also a blue led for bluetooth connections next to it. I have never turned it off but I have read a few posts that talk about editing the registry to do this. There is no simple way with normal settings** You can always PM me if its a silly question and you dont want to post for all to see.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] KrewCial:
Thanks, I posted my question on howardforums.com too and they told me the same thing. I don't really want to mess with the registry yet, since I got my phone recently. Besides, I don't mind it at all, just wanted to know why it did that. :)
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] cdyat:
I dont mess too much with mine. To be honest its pretty damn good as it is!!
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] KrewCial:
Exactly. :)

As long as you don't just install everything anywhere on the internal memory, it should stay that way.

Which brings me to another question about the microSD card slot. I posted this on howardforums too, but might aswell ask here too:

Can anyone help me by telling me exactly how I can get a microSD card out of the device?

The manual states I should press on the microSD card itself to get it to pop out, but I can't even reach the microSD card with my fingers (I'm not fat :P ). I had to use a tool from my garage to help me get it out and I really doubt HTC had this in mind, so there should be an easier way!

Besides, when i tried pressing the card with the tool, it didn't even budge. So I just pulled it out instead of pressing it inwards to make it pop out...
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] carlosmozas:
I get out the microSD with the stylus, using the black broad extreme...
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] KrewCial:
Yea thats a good tip, I found it out after giving it a few other shots. :)

Thing is, I had to press pretty hard and before, I was afraid of breaking something, so I held back.

But yea, the stylus does come in handy after all. :D

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SkyHighClaw:
Hello All!

I'm sorry if this has been asked before but I'm trying to install nougat on my phone and having some great difficulty.

So far my phone is flashed and I was running TWRP 3.0.2 however every time i try to flash a lineage 14.1 based rom it would never work. (tried straight lineage 14.1, nutOS, DOT) none of them worked (wiped the phone clean, then received error 7, removed the assert lines that let in install but just perpetually boot looped) . My many a google searches makes me believe that that particular version of TWRP does not work with nougat. but that's the only version I am able to get working. any newer version of TWRP gets stuck in a perpetual boot loop.

So with that said, if my suspicious are correct and i need a newer version is there anything I'm missing to install a newer version of TWRP? if 3.0.2 is a good enough version to install nougat based rom's what am I missing on that end?

Any help at all would be greatly appreciated! and Thanks in advance!

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Slent:
I'm actually not yet used to these kind of stuffs but I guess your problem has something to do with either your twrp version or the bootloader version, this link might help you. http://theflamingskull.com/downloads/z00a/MM_BL_STUFF/
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SkyHighClaw:
Yup that was it. My google-fu is off as i found my answer from a reddit post (5 seconds after asking this question in reddit...) My issue was that i was still on lolipop, the last OTA update and had no idea asus put out a manual update. worst part is, after unlocking the bootloader installing twrp, THEN installing that oem update, that might have cause my phone to crash mid update so it ended up bricking the phone...

I was able to Frankenstein it back together with old parts that I thought were no good, right now I'm on that last manual update and I gotta fight through a few issues preventing the boot loader from being unlocked.

Anyway you were correct, using the last OTA update updates the bootloader so I was stuck cause of that.

[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] eldika:
Hello mates,

2 weeks ago my leeco le pro 3 x722, running AICP 20180503, fell down the floor and the bottom-right corner was broken and 3 lower buttons initially worked but after 5-10 minutes stopped working.

Besides,at the same time that lower buttons stopped working, transitions (opening and closing apps, going home, going back and forward) performed much slower...

I thought at that time that it was because the broken screen, but after receiving a new screen (in fact I ordered two and they performed exactly the same) the slow performance still remains.

Once the programs are opened of even while they are opening, they run ver smooth...

It's a very weird thing...

Maybe any of you can help me with this.. I tried putting processor at best performance mode and nothing happens.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] mickeykk:
Hello guys,

I have this problem and I hope it can be solved...

First of all, my hardware and firmware info are available here:

[secured https protocol prefix] + photos.app.goo.gl/2Kv7YevWXgFFxwLD7

Secondly, when I try to manualy update my android i see: Registering device... -> processing failed.

Thirdly, I tried flashing an original BTU and ILO stock firmwares from sammobile site with

the latest odin version(3.13.1) and it failed with: SECURE CHECK FAIL : (PIT).

As it seems from all the info I read in the last days, Although I bought an sm-930f(it's also written in the phone info and in the receipt)

model which should have the Exynos cpu, it has a snapdragon cpu according to the cpu info app.

I also conclude from all of my experiments that the roms couldn't be flashed because of 3 possible reasons (possible it's related):

1. I tried flashing sm-930f model stock rom which intended for Exynos cpu.

2. My phone model could be SM-G930T (USA T-Mobile US) - I suspect it beacause of the firmware info (an image available in the link above)

and because i see a t-mobile logo when i stop the mobile hotspot (an image available in the link above)

and because SM-G930T has the Snapdragon cpu.

3. I read somwhere in this forum that this US variant model (SM-G930T) which have the Snapdragon cpu is locked and can't be flashed.

I will strongly appreciate any help regarding the problem, because this drives me crazy, morally and technologically.

why morally? because at the store the item(the phone) described as a FOTA supported - so basically, i was ripped off.

why technologically? because there have to be a solution for this if it's indeed locked.

Thanks,
