[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Kayhan 17#:
Hey guys,

last week, out of sudden my board started to smell burnt and i could see some smoke rising from the HU, anyhow i did take some pictures and i need to identify the part to order one and fix my HU.

Everything just works as it should, beside of the right half of the buttons arent illuminated anymore.

And i finally want to put my radio all together and install it in my car, as i had problems with my MCU software and finally could fix it thanks to wadzio but on that day it burnt so i still cannot put all together =)

I attached the pictures and i could see similar components on the board like DMB D8 or DM8 D8 as i circled in red. I just need to know what component it is so i can order and solder it to fix my radio =)

The burnt component, where one cannot identify it anymore but before i cleaned it up i saw the MB D8 part of it so i guess its the same part as the other good ones on the board.

Thank you guys

kaya

This is likely the transistor from your first picture:

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Kayhan 17#:
Hey buddy, if i search for S8050 i get the J3Y ones, but the one which burnt had DMB, i looked upon some tables for smd codes.

But unfortunately that one is harder to find, i tried d8 sot23 and dmb sot23 on ebay, due to lack of knowledge i am asking here
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] banksc:
What I said is that I think the transistor shown in your first picture is the one at the link...it appears to have part of the 'J'. I don't know what the second one is, sorry.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] flcs2020:
i found some result for D8, and you can try other marking code here
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Kayhan 17#:
Hi mate,

I already tried that approach like you described, I changed that D8 SMD, but it burnt straight again.

So my last resort was to take voltage from somewhere else, and it works since almost two years now.

Is it possible to sideload Samsung stock camera app on Custom ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Devhux:
Nope. Only roms that are based on the stock Samsung software (which presumably would already have the camera APK). Like pretty much any Samsung app, the camera app requires access to specific APIs which will probably never be in custom roms as Samsung doesn't make them open-source.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] fayeharuna:
so is it possible dual cameras and dual apertures support on custom rom
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Vmb265:
It'll be possible after Google releases the source code for Android P as it'll have APIs for multiple camera. Dont know about dual aperture as it seems that the s9 is the only one featuring it!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] elliwigy:
i mean anything is possible but it wont b a simple sideload lol.. it woukd need to b ported as theres drivers and other dependencies besides the apk

look at gcam ports as a reference.. u cant simply install an apk but its been ported to many devices already

I used this app for years and it was perfect. Easy to use, always worked, and I loved it. I went to get it after a phone issue and I cannot find it.

SMS Scheduler could scheduled texts when ever i needed. It could also have certain texts on schedules like every monday at 2:00. It was perfect.

I believe it was called SMS Scheduler and it looked like the photos below. If anyone has it or can show me where to get it. Thank You!

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Erikk7:
Hi all,

Excited to be a new member to this forum, seems like there is lots of powerful information here.

So, not the most clear title ever, but a specific example of my problem goes like this. If I want to take advantage of googles launcher3 src code such as CellLayout.java (packages/apps/Launcher3/src/com/android/launcher3/CellLayout.java) so I can play with the ability to reorganize the home screens app layout using the methods existing in that file. I would wish to import this CellLayout.java file so I can use it from a quick setting tile button's file, such as in the airplane mode tile.

In file frameworks/base/packages/SystemUI/src/com/android/systemui/qs/tiles/AirplaneModeTile.java

So if I add the line "import com.android.launcher3.CellLayout;" in AirplaneModeTile.java, when I do a full AOSP build with the changes to the two files I get a compile time Error on the import code that "launcher3 cannot be resolved".

If I had to guess these two files are in different domains of sorts, and I think when I build using GNU make from the top directory, the Google App's code (h t tps:// android.googlesource. c o m /platform/packages/apps/) such as the AlarmClock, Contacts, Camera, and Launcher3 for example are built and then removed from scope at a different time than the Android systemui code.

Any thoughts on how to fix this?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richietrager:
Hi,

I've got my hands on a cheap chinese phone from a brand called "V7". The model is "Zyro". Unfortunately, the phone didn't come to me with pre-installed Google Play store. Nor is it rooted or flashed with custom recovery like TWRP. I wanted to install some apps on it via transferring data from PC to the phone. I've sourced apps such as Youtube, Facebook, Messenger, Google Internet Services, Google Play Store etc. from a trusted website apkmirror. Unfortunately, most of the apps seem to cause errors while attempting to install. The errors state that the apps are not meant "for this device". I've tried versions designed for numerous architectures such as 32 and 64 bit, as well as arm64-V8a based CPUs. I can't understand why is this happening as majority of those apps state in the description that they are either universal or are expected to work since Android 4.2 Jelly Bean. I have problems installing GBoard (Google Keyboard) and Samsung Keyboard on the device as I'm stuck with some chinese virtual input called "Sogou". I've tried to flash the device with custom recovery but unfortunately didn't find a version of TWRP which would be compatible with my device. The same happened when I've tried to find any sort of custom rom or even official, android stock rom. I would like to ask you:

1. What are possible causes of such majority of apps being not compatible with this device despite the fact that it seems to be a generic android phone?

2. Why universal input apps such as Google's Gboard crash after a while or do not install at all?

3. How can I safely flash the device with a custom recovery?

Thanks in advance

Have questions about building roms or kernels?

While I would absolutely love to help everybody, I have 3 kids under 5 years old, a job, and all of those time taking life events that come with a family and work. You are welcome to post questions here, but I can't promise that I'll have time or be able to answer all of them, But I'll do my best. But perhaps other users will be able to assist you as well. If you have a specific question, and don't hear back from me, you may want to start a thread in the Q&A section of the forums. Remember to be as detailed as possible, and include logs! :D

I really want to help you get started building. That said, I am not able to answer every question that possibly exists. I just am not that smart. :D

However, this is a great place to ask questions! Another great place to ask questions is in the Q&A section for your device, if it is device specific.

But I do have one request:

Please don't PM me your questions

. Please post your questions here instead, so I can answer one question for the group, rather than one on one questions. I want to help, but I don't have time to answer the volume of questions I am getting in my PM box. Please post you questions here in the thread. :D

Oh just what I was looking for. My phone's manufacturer warranty will run out in a couple of months. Will give me enough time to look up stuff till then. :)
[Android General] AlaskaLinuxUser:
Great question, I'll be honest, that is the first I heard of it. It seems as though it is pulling the boot image apart, it found more than one ramdisk image and doesn't know what to do with it. Did you try with the other tool, umakebootimage? http://www.mediafire.com/download/xdmd278n17gm58h/unmkbootimg and http://www.mediafire.com/download/7cmi548pzetc6c4/mkbootimg

Perhaps that will yield something fruitful. What device/model/kernel is it?

You are welcome!

Notice this warning:

Please modify mkbootimg.c using the above values to build your image.

It is saying you should get the source code for mkbootimg and modify that source code with these lines, then build the mkbootimg tool and use that to put your kernel back together. So you can't use the mkbootimg that I supply for that purpose, you have to build a special one just for your phone. This is abnormal, but does happen.

[Android General] Jiiro:
[MENTION=7026648]AlaskaLinuxUser[/MENTION]

I'm really confused on Video Number 9, for some reason, the boot.img doesn't want to cooperate with me for extracting information. I have a Samsung Galaxy J7 (Samsung Exynos 7580). Some of the stuff you got from the kernel in the previous videos can't be retrieved. :(
[Android General] AlaskaLinuxUser:
You are correct, sometimes the kernel is set up in a way that hides a lot more information, it really depends on what options they used when compiling it. That is one of the hardest parts for the developer.

As for extracting the boot image, sometimes they use a custom version of mkbootimage to build the kernel which can make it difficult to extract. You might try downloading other versions of it by searching online to see if you can find one that works a little better.

Also, is your phones boot loader unlocked? Is your kernel signed?
[Android General] AlaskaLinuxUser:
Doesn't the J7 already have custom ROMs? Lineage OS, RR?
[Android General] AlaskaLinuxUser:
Just a quick note, I am currently working on a set of videos for upgrading your device tree for the next version of Android. For the target device, I am hoping to upgrade the BLOX2 that I used in the series for building a device tree from scratch. First up is upgrading it from Marshmallow to Nougat. Hopefully we will all learn a lot from this experience! ;)
[Android General] AlaskaLinuxUser:
Another update!

I am only about 10% through the upgrade from Marshmallow to Nougat, but I've started putting up the videos. The OP has been updated with new links to GitLab and YouTube! I will probably be taking a short break from this as some changes at work will require me to do some job interviews, which take up some of my spare time, and may adjust my schedule a bit.

While these upgrade videos are not complete, I do think that they give a good general idea of what a person needs to do to upgrade their device from one version of Android to another. Keep in mind, this is a tedious and often advanced task! Not for the faint of heart! :D

Hi, I'm the guy who wrote in the comments of one of your video. I can't extract the kernel of my rockchip rk3126 device, so this can't let me take zImage (which I need to build cm12.1, rockchip kernel sources doesn't work, even if I'm using the same 3.10 version). I read in the rockchip wiki that they made kernel with their method (RKIMG), so while I try to extract boot.img or kernel.img with unmkbootimg it tells me that the file isn't an android boot image. Instead, while trying to extract recovery.img I got 3 files: kernel, ramdisk.cpio.gz and second_bootloader. So what can I do for extracting this?

The kernel https://github.com/rockchip-linux/kernel of branch release-3.10 (it is the same of stock ROM, just updated to a newer subversion) gave me this error while building cm12.1: https://hastebin.com/udivahidaq.rb
