[Magisk] CbIP:
Hello!

I am trying to write a simple module to replace /cust/OPEN_COM/cust_OPEN_EU.prop file. LG stores its regional settings there. I cannot just edit the file because /cust folder is mounted in the read-only mode.

I've looked through some examples but all of them were made to replace files in /system folder.

Where should I put my file? Should I just create "/cust/OPEN_COM" folder structure in the module root folder?

Some additional information. I believe, that /cust mounting point refers to the /dev/block/sda15 partition.

Thank you very much for any advice!
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Magisk modules can only replace files in /system or /vendor. If you want to replace/edit files somewhere else you'll need to use a custom installation or boot script to do what you want.
[Magisk] CbIP:
Thank you!

Is it possible to replace the file with init.d script and init.d enabler module? Should I remount /cust foler with rw option in this case?
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
You don't need init.d with Magisk. You've got post-fs-data.d and service.d where you can run boot scripts (depending on when you want them to run).

You'll have to remount rw to edit, and then you can mount back to ro when the script is done.

I want to have ext4 formatted external sd card. My card is gpt formatted (tried with msdos too) to a ext4 partition, but im getting the 'this device doesnt support this sd card' warning, and asking to format the card. If i format it works fine, but as fat32. Any way I can fix this? This was the major point for me; to move to a fs with permissions.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zerikwan:
There is a way to format it through TWRP, but I never try it except for cache and system. You can try it and tell me, because I don't have a spare external micro SD card to try.

But remember, I'm just telling you the way. You are responsible for your sd card.

Wipe - advanced wipe - check "micro SD card" checkbox then repair or change file system - change file system - choose EXT4

BTW, my external sd card format is shown as vfat.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silverbluep:
Will try this once i back it up; but it shouldnt be much different than doing it on the pc with gparted.

Vfat is the same with fat32 from whata i understand. At least mkfs with fat32 makes a vfat partition from my linux knowledge.

On my main phone, i formatted to ext4 and it worked fine (LOS 15.1 pioneer) but permission wise i still can't grant permissions (chmod doesnt change anything; i still iont get this whole cluster**** about sd cards and permissions) so i guess it doesnt help me either way. I could possibly fix problems by symlinking, but that is not allowed on the sd card uven when its ext4 (cannot create symlink using adb shell, phone wont let me ?)

Hi, I'm trying to enter password via NFC.

Here is the story.

The building which I live has rfid keys for entering doors like this also we can enter with password too. The Password thing is become hard sometimes, especially while carrying something.

I've simulated some cards via NFC but phone's nfc doesn't see the RFID cards for simulating. I think if I send the pass via NFC that could work. The pass system like **password. It shouldn't be hard but no idea how to do.

I'ill be glad if you guide me :angel:

[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baga13:
I've searched here and on other forums but can't find an answer to some camera related problems.

I'm using 15.1 Osprey June, 1st build on my Moto G3 2Gb Ram (XT1543).

PROBLEM 1: front camera not working.

This is happening for a long time, since I was using stock ROM (my phone came with 6.0, but that time both camera worked fine).

Don't know when this starts, cause i didn't use front camera very often, but when on 6.1 this already happened, the change camera icon simply disappeared.

I've tried all tricks, format the phone, boot on safe mode, clear chaces, etc.

I've used Lineage 14 for a while and now I've made a clean install of 15.1 and same thing.

Back camera works fine for photo and video using Footej Camera — the first time I opened this app, there was the change camera icon; I clicked and get that camera error message, and now the icon disappeared again. Installed MotoCamera_Mod_6.2.5.16 and same thing: back camera fully functional, front camera no icon or options.

Didn't drop my phone, but i'm considering some hardware problem.

Anyone has a link to a DIY fix (or at least try)?

Here in my country, the cost of the repair probably does not pay...

PROBLEM 2: Instagram stories not working

photos works fine, a click the button and can add to my story, but when I record video, after it's finished the buttons doesn't appear and the app freezes.

on "hands free" the image freezes during record, when try to make a boomerang "an error occurs" message appears and the **** goes like this...

I've removed and install back the app, have the last update, etc.

Is someone else having this problem?

thanks!
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baga13:
problem solved!

if someone else is having similar problems, here's the (obvious) solution:

just do a clean flash!

I did it and everything is working now (instagram stories, other camera apps functions and GPS).

except the front camera, probably due to some hardware stuff.

[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] xayz:
Hey.

I'm wondering if the LG G7 can show HDR or Dolby Vision in the Netflix app? Has someone tested it already?

The G6 can show Dolby and the V30 HDR. The G7 is not on the supported list on the Netflix website.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] Luinwethion:
HDR
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] LookedPath:
I also noticed the badge but contrary to YouTube, where you can instantly spot HDR activating because the brightness goes up to max, on Netflix you can't really be sure of it. ?

The thing that makes me even more suspicious is the fact that our phone isn't even listen on the support article
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] arreffss:
HDR on Netflix is currently not supported for LG G7, strange enough..

From the Netflix support;

"Hi there! As I have checked here. For the Netflix app we currently do not support HDR on LG G7. The app can support HDR on LG V30 only at the moment. I know your phone supports HDR though but Google Play are actually updating this supported devices for streaming on HDR through our application."
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] LookedPath:
That's exactly what I was saying a few posts back.

Even though the phone supports HDR, Netflix has to certify it and to enable it for the specific device and they still have to do it for ours.

I hope that they'll enable it soon for our phone.

EDIT:

[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] Mietas2:
I'll join up on this conversation. I tested Netflix's Dolby Vision on my LG G6 and to be honest? I don't see the 'wow factor'. Maybe it's not as good on small screens as on big ones? Maybe I would have to see it next to another G6 without HDR? All I can see is normal video at max brightness. Same with YouTube videos: I much preferred video on my late Nexus' 6P OLED (no HDR) than LG G6's with HDR on.

Is it just me?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] norhor:
It is not just you. G7 does have a bright screen which can go up to 1000 nits. But it is not 10 bit, which you need to be able to see those deep colors. So IMO, the HDR aspect of this phone is something that looks better on paper than on the display itself. :)
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] LookedPath:
Judging from a review that I found online it seems that the panel of this phone is a 10 bit one but it was only a single review. All the others don't even bother to specify it.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] norhor:
Do you have a link to that review?

With this app I got this reult:

[IMG="HDR test LG G7 ThinQ"]https://i.imgur.com/57o8qxr.png[/IMG]

I can confirm that my LG G7 ThinQ does not pass this test for wide color gamut.

From viewing on YouTube and Amazon Prime, I can also say that the HDR doesn't have the same impact in terms of deep colors as my 10 bit TV(Sony XE93)
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] LookedPath:
Yeah sure, here it is.

But are you sure that that app is trustworthy?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] norhor:
Thanks for the link. It is intresting to see that he says 10 bit and HDR10 specifically. I wonder where he gets it from? You care to shoot him an email and ask?

The app is not more trustworthy to me than any other app(I downloaded it a couples of days ago when I learned that my new G7 had support for HDR), but it is not un-trustworthy either. I think the app also seems thorough and made well done.

And I'm fairly confident in my ability to see the difference. But you never know, it might be some confusion here.

Also, 10 bit is a big thing. I'm sure LG and others would have used it more in marketing if it had a 10 bit panel.

That just means that Netflix certified it it for HDR10 not that the screen doesn't support it. GSM arena seems to have tested the screen in the lab and confirmed the support of Dolby Vision. If you look in my previous post there's a link to that article.

Hey, it's a late communication but your the subject of your comment is why I ended up here. LG G7 is listed to support DV Everywhere, but the funny thing is I have not found even a single way to test it. Netflix won't play Vision on G7, and phone's internal video player doesn't play DV files either. VLC can play DV files but it doesn't support DV either (be it PC or mobile phone), so it messes up the colors.

So the question is...what the heck is going on here? What's the point on supporting DV if users can not use it. Marketing mess and Scamming user?

Hey XDA!

Saw the portal post about the pixel 2 blurry panorama fix (that you can read here) so I turned it into a Magisk module to make it easier to apply. Note, I have a Pixel 2 XL, so I only tested this module to make sure that it boots and the camera still works, I did not test whether or not the patch itself works, though it should if there was a portal post about it.

Bugs: Report any issues here and I'll take a look

Instructions:

Open Magisk Manager

From the side menu, select "Downloads"

Scroll or search to find "Pixel 2 Blurry Panorama Fix"

Install

Reboot

Profit!

I bought One Plus 5 in October last year. A new problem has arisen recently. It randomly starts rebooting. The lock button is perfectly fine but it is continuously set to 'PRESSED' position by I don't know what. The button is perfectly fine. But something keeps triggering the on button. It's been bugging me and randomly happens and randomly stops.

Anyone knows what's going on?

This is probably the worst phone at this price that I've ever seen. Never taking a One Plus 5 again. Other than modding and camera, it provides nothing but hardware issues 99% of the time.

Hello, this is probably long overdue, but recently I had a bit different problem with my Lenovo Vibe K5 (it landed in salty water and I quickly picked it up). It was booting correctly, but the two visible symptoms were lack of USB connectivity and blinking LED after booting. What I did was:

1. Boiled pure water, then disabled heating.

2. Put the main PCB (without cameras and vibration motor) into the water for half an hour.

3. Dried it with a hairdryer. After that I also did some scratching of a few visibly soiled solder joints.

After assembling the phone works as it did before. Good luck!
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Power off immediately. Do Not attempt to charge.

Disconnect the battery asap.

Disassemble and completely dry every bit of moisture before attempting to power on again.

In a dry room flush with anhydrous isopropyl alcohol* (flammable!) and remove as much of it as possible with low pressure dry clean compressed air. Or fling it off as best as possible. Use a fan in a dry room to evaporate what's left. Isopropyl is hygroscopic so do it in a warm dry room!

Reassemble when completely dry.

If it boots up and runs normally, you have successfully rescued your device.

Congratulations.

If not it's most likely dead as Zed.

* NEVER use isopropyl alcohol (or any solvents) around LCD displays, it will poison them, permanently destroying them. OK for AMOLED displays just don't go too nuts. Purge it as fast as practical. It will leave a residue on glass. Try to avoid this if possible on the display. Use your best judgment. The water must be eliminated completely.
