Hi There,

EDIT! - SOLVED the logo issue! - still trying to figure out the weather widget

I am a long time reader, first time poster! So after much research, i decided on a Joying JY-UP128P4 for my 2000 Pontiac trans am. I am still a week or two away from getting my entire system installed, as i am waiting on my sound deadener and amp wiring to come in but i do have the unit set up on my test bench. I was lead to believe that changing my boot logo was as simple as formatting a microsd flash card to FAT32, creating a folder called "mycar" and dropping a 1024x600 jpg. image in there, then going to factory settings on the unit, punching in 3368, going to the boot logo menu, and then scroll to the end of the menu to find my logo. i have tried this on multiple cards, and no luck. any idea what I am doing wrong?

Also how do i update the weather widget on the home screen for my location/area? seems like i have been through almost evert setting/ menu and no luck...

I appreciate the feedback! Thanks!

[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JesseK:
I have two nVidia Shield TVs (16gb) and sometime last week the YT apps decided to stop launching (select app, pops up, no logo or loading sign, and just closes immediately without an error). I haven't made any changes to cause this, and it happened on both of my systems on or around the same time.

Before I wipe everything and start fresh, has anyone else experienced this? I've cleared cache, uninstalled YTT and reinstalled, wiped and removed updated versions of YT app to no avail. I'm sure there was an automatic update that fubar'd something, but I'm not sure where to go to resolve this.

Well, I went ahead and wiped the entire device and now both YT and YTT work fine. Device itself seems to be running a lot smoother. Maybe it was for the better...

Samsung admits the sales are bad.

Do you think the sales are bad because people are finally getting sick of the bloatware or the incredible high price tag ?

Do you think S10 sales will be better ?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] tropical cactus:
The S9 is my first Samsung phone and I bought it because of the stereo speakers and improved camera. They didn't catch me with the S8 but it did impress me when it came out.

Bad sales depends on a lot of factors. Ever increasing competition from Chinese OEMs, especially Hwawei, incremental changes to a phone that has already exhausted its sales or maybe wrongly assuming that you have achieved the same footing as Apple.

I'm impressed with the S9. It still stands out from the competition and I don't get the feeling that I'm missing out on anything another phone has to offer this year.

I was still on the S4 before the upgrade to the S9. The S8 just wasn't enough for me to upgrade but the S8 is so close to the S9 I can see why the sales are poor. For me it was a HUGE upgrade.

It's probably because of the bad publicity it got in regards to the American version Vs the rest of the world, the exynos battery life was abysmal, it's better now but still now where near as good as the Snapdragon version.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Tel864:
It is the most I've ever laid for a phone but all in all I'm happy with it. I used Moto phones from the original Moto G through the G4, mainly because they were easy to root and develop roms. Their purchase by Lenovo, a company that would have trouble engineering toy phones killed Motos' for me. Having owned a long line of Samsung tablets made me try the S9. I can now add Samsung to my list of Moto, LG, Huawei/Honor, and Nokia. The curved screen? Meh
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Peregrinestar:
I think people have finally had enough...

I loved the screen and camera of my S9 but the OP6 just seemed like a better fit for my needs since I like very smooth and fast performance and while the s9 did that to some extent, it could also become a bit slower than I liked over time. In the end I sold it for the OP6 which turned out of be a better choice despite being a "cheaper" or "inferior" phone.

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] djwyman:
I think the bad sales numbers are due to people not needing the newest greatest phone every year anymore when there is not a great new feature added to them. For me this is my first Samsung device since the galaxy s2 or something. I was a die hard stock android/nexus fan for years and then when the nexus phones died I have been lost and trying different phones when needing another phone. First few post nexus phones was various moto phones as they use a close to stock version of android but I really wanted to go with a top tier phone that I could get financed threw my carrier and I feel stock android has became a little on the stale side so I went with the s9. Truth be told I really like it. I don't like bixby, or the stock launcher (I am actually using ruthless launcher which is a pixel launcher clone) but some of the built in Samsung apps are quite impressive to me like Samsung pay (still messes with peoples head when it works after they say it won't) or the Samsung browser that is like firefox and chrome had a baby and made that awesome thing. having a built in theme installer is kinda cool (again I guess me looking at stock android for so long I was bored with it as it hasn't changed that much in 2 or 3 years.)
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] bkores:
It's because the S9 is not much different from the S8.

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] TheMadScientist:
When you release something like every year like this I have a S8 And will either get a note 8 or 9

S9 isnt no where near enough of upgrade.And unless Galaxy S X is extraordinary Prob wont be going for that one either

The biggest thing with their numbers on S9 is the sales they had with S 6 7 and 8

No one sees enough to upgrade yet
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Cloudane:
The average person doesn't know or care what an "exynos" is or the pros and cons compared to stock Android etc. I think it's just because it's an incremental upgrade - no real obvious difference from the S8, so people looking to upgrade will say "huh, it's exactly the same" and not bother.

Or maybe it's because it doesn't have a notch. That seems to be a fashion statement these days. I hope and pray that Samsung doesn't fall for that particular fad - they've managed to steer clear so far.

I got mine very heavily subsidised by EE (by my most conservative calculations compared to SIM-only it cost me £320 or so. There are other ways you can argue that it's pretty much a free phone). Buying outright from Samsung they're expensive but carriers are almost handing them out in the street right now.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nsam1:
Dear Android Brothers and sisters,

I am wanting to update the firmware on my S6 (downloaded from SAMmobile) but am in an odd position...

My S6 main board failed (unable to see mobile networks), and after trying everything in the known universe to fix this, concluded it was hardware and purchased a second hand main board off eBay, that I've now fitted. It was working OK, but is from France (I am in England).

It worked OK but had an ancient stock ROM. The first thing I wanted to do was install Lineage, however there didn't seem any option to allow for the bootloader to be unlocked to allow me to flash the TWRP recovery. After much 'jiggary pokery', I downloaded the English firmware from SAMmobile, extracted all of the binaries and tried to flash them individually using Heimdall (I run Linux not Windows). Whilst this worked for some, there appeared to be a mismach in the partitions that were expected - I guess this is something to do with the France firmware being structured differently? So after a bit of soft-bricking, I managed to get Lineage on the phone, which is mostly working, but behaving somewhat strangely. At the end of the day, I want the latest firmware (radio etc.) and to have Lineage working OK.

Is it possible for me to somehow flash the English firmware on this French board (including the PIT which I assume relates to the partition structure which will allow it all to work)? Any ideas how I'd do this? If I'd have to use Odin, so be it, I'll do it work on my windows box, but ultimately I would like someone to confirm I can do this without bricking my phone. I've read around and people seem to suggest it would be OK but I don't know the best way to do this. I assume the best way to get to my stable end, would be to flash the latest English firmware from SAMmobile, unlock the bootloader, flash TWRP then install Lineage in the 'normal' way?

Any thoughts or suggestions (including pointers to other posts I may have missed) really gratefully received !

Cheers,

Neon

Maybe this is the fix? anyone had this before?https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/...-hint-it-was-never-a-software-problem.186235/
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crossvxm:
Possibly. Mine had a very slight issue like this when the phone got warm, but that is mainly for people with the TRUE ghost touch. That means you swipe and sometimes it swipes lazy whrn scrolling because it didn't catch the entire swipe, typing on the keyboard is terrible because it "touched" a different letter, and using an app to test the multitouch registers less than 10 fingers, or even putting a few fingers on the screen causes it to touch elsewhere or not detect a touch. I had a OnePlus One like this when they were still being sold and it was terrible. Then there was a nightly CyanogenMod build that fixed the problem but would drain battery about twice as fast.

Currently, we have custom roms that have updated drivers which vastly improve the screen performance on the ones that had very little issues. Me for example after flashing DotOS I no longer get the very slight issues. My issue mainly occured when swiping, where it would require a swipe perfectly straight up or down instead of the normal way we swipe with our thumbs which is usually slightly tilted. It wasn't something to ruin the experience for me, but sometimes unlocking my phone with the pattern was difficult because of this. There was another rom out there that specifically outlined that it had many updated drivers including the Synaptics drivers (touch), but I cannot recall the name.

[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] andygold:
Just came over from an LG Optimus G Pro from 2013. I could change the colors of the LED (which surrounded the entire home button), for texts, phone calls, appointments, charging, etc...

Can the LED color on the G7 be changed for the above? I've found where I can have it blink different colors for calls from specific persons, but that's about it.

At this point, I'm still not sure what colors go with what...I've seen red, green , and pale blue blinks so far.

I'd also like it to blink at a faster pace. Right now it blinks every 10 seconds. I'd like to be able to lower it to blink every 2 or 3 seconds possibly. Basically Id like to see what's going on with the phone while it is sleeping, with just a casual glance. If I have to wait 10 seconds to see an LED blink to ascertain whether I missed a text, I might as well pick it up and turn it on. I'm constantly in and out of my office throughout the day, and a more frequently blinking LED would be quite nice!

Thanks

Magisk patched boot image

Big thanks to your OTA dump! With it, I was somewhat able to extract out the `boot.img`, to let Magisk patch it to allow installation of Magisk by flashing the `patched_boot.img`. This basically opens up root access (systemless root to be more specific).

For any one interested, here is the repo with instructions:

`https://github.com/guangie88/xiaomi-jasmine-magisk-boot`

`fastboot` is required to flash the patched boot image, and obviously do this at your own risk :D

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] guangie:
For my case, I did not have to go through Recovery.

You would need to unlock the bootloader in fastboot mode first (because flashing can only take place after the bootloader is unlocked). The command should be `fastboot oem unlock`.

Restart the phone and boot into fastboot mode again, then do the fastboot flash to both `boot_a` and `boot_b`, as seen in the repository instructions.

---------- Post added at 02:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:21 AM ----------

Don't think so, and not safe to do so since the `boot.img` is based on the stock Android image for A2, and not from 6X. A failed flash is likely to cause bootloop.

Additionally, the unofficial TWRP recovery images for 6X do not work for A2 also, so it would seem that both phones are quite different.

There are 2 to 3 TWRP recovery images for 6X, which you can find online and try. If any of them work, with TWRP, one can easily flash any Magisk zip for installation to obtain root.
