[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] NaXal:
Hello,

Couple of months back I purchased a Mi Note 5 Pro (4GB/64GB) for my mother. Being a senior citizen, as expected, the phone ended up messed up (softwarely) within a month or so. I tried to clean things but found she fell victim to so much fishing that phone was running dead slow and full of bloatware !!

So went for a factory reset (bone stock MiUi Indian 9.5.xx) to start fresh and there was the surprise. Phone is stuck at setup screen as it is asking for Mi Account credential. My mother is unable to remember what she has done with this Mi Account thing so I am unable to enter any details.

I have tried to do a hard reset but there too the same.

How do I get around this issue ?

Anyway I can clean flash MiUi Firmware to erase this and bring the device back to normal ? I did some Searching and a third party website suggesting a very complicated solution for this same issue, here is the link, not sure if that is the right way to try.

Any help ?

Thanks.

Try formatting internal and then flash a rom.

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] cparmentier:
I found the 20 keys keypad on CNN.CN

A good try would be to adapt this keyboard on a 16 keys niki and see if it works.

As anyone tried something likely or has an opinion on this ?

Thanks and keep up the good work, I'm often just watching these theads ;)
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] pschyska:
I am absolutely willing to try it,

is this only this only the keys or the electronics included (switches etc.) ?

I can't see any connectors ...

Additionally, i think there must be some kind of software mod so that the operating system nows the right keyboard layout to apply.

Or are they compatible ? (i.e. can you flash the same rom on 16 and 20 key models and os switches automatically ? ..)

Did someone open the Niki before ?
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] cparmentier:
I'm absolutely willing to try yo as soon as i get an azerty keyboard :) (e.g. french and not us ;)
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] dabs:
I would be very interested to know if this is possible.

AFAIK the software on 16 / 20 key versions is identical, ie. a rom from a 16key device can be flashed on a 20key and the keyboard works fine.

I suppose what we need now are disassembly shots of the Nike showing the keyboard in detail.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Valvarin:
...

Don't think it will work.

In the NAND are so many references about the 16Key or 20 Key version.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] dharvey4651:
I bet it would be possible. Theoretically, all you would have to do is replace the keyboard and then re-map the keys under the keypad. Unless the buttons under the keypad are layed out differently of course.

I'm sure there is software somewhere that could do this.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] nixu:
Has anybody tried it??

Nixu
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] dharvey4651:
From my understanding, the drivers for the 16 key Nike and the 20 key Nike are included in every ROM so it should only be a matter of instructing the ROM which driver to use for the keyboard and replacing the actual keypad with the 20 button one and you should be set.

I lucked out. The Nike I bought off ebay is already a 20 button model so this doesn't really apply to me but I think this is an interesting project.

EDIT:: After doing some more digging it doesn't seem this will ever work.

Here is a photo of the 16 key and also a photo of the 20 key. As you can clearly see, the buttons on the left and right of the key are larger(twice the size) of the ones on the left and right side of the 20 key so that means that the ribbon cable under the keypad would need to changed and then someone would have to figure out a way to get the device to recognize the new ribbon. This shouldn't be too much of an issue as seeing as how ALL ROMs have both drivers.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] cassio:
ok...i can confirm, hardware is different...argh

just ordered an oem keyboard...
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] cassio:
ok...i have the 20key keyboard now, just installed it, booted into wm, QW launches internet explorer ,AS launches start menu (like the 16key version), L is backspace, ZX is message, OP DEL ENTER ALT doesn't do anything. so i hard reset the dual, and after that the same thing still happens

any ideas, anyone? :)
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Valvarin:
...

we played with the PID (product information Digit) and it loaded some

different keyboard layouts. u should be able to patch this xD but u need time, to find out what u have to patch...

The other thing is... after booting in the OS there was the right Keymapping,

i think u only have to patch the keypad driver^^
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] cassio:
ok...can you tell me how? or point me to somewhere that talks about this. i am still quite new to windows mobile (only really started you use my touch dual for about a week, never used wm before...always been a palmos user)

just to try my luck, i reflashed the rom (tom's rom, v2.1.3, WWE) but that doesn't help. the keymapping is still wrong.

thank you very much!

Samsung is going to host an unpack at NYC Aug 9th 2018,

since we missed the note 7, did not update to note 8, how about note 9?
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] electronical:
Hi, i still have my N920C Note 5 running totally fine on Extreme Debloated ROM 3.3 since a few years now as my daily driver. I am still unsure about any major improvements to spend/waste cash and ditch my Note 5 for a newer one. However, i wish that there was a newer version of my current ROM since i'm stuck on Android 6.0 (i don't think the other ROMs are better to be honest, especially on the battery) but like i said, it's all working fine. I can still take some nice pictures and videos on Auto mode. I watched a video review by MKBHD and wasn't particularly impressed by the Note 9.

For those who are interested in the latest Note, i would advise to just wait a bit for real world usage reviews to start coming in. Don't rush to purchase something which has failed spectacularly in the past with the Note 7.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Turbine1991:
No, you'd have to be an idiot to fork up to a Samsung phone knowing that they won't support it for very long.

You're better off buying Xiaomi phones on a regular basis, for a fraction of the cost. Furthermore, becuase they use modern - medium/high end hardware, your battery lasts longer.

Samsung needs to step up their game. They don't deserve the level of trust the brand implies.

In comparison I did borrow a Xiaomi Note 5 Plus for a month ($154usd), it was significantly faster than my note 5, had Android 8.0, 10 hrs screen on time and easily 4-7+ days with quite regular usage. I don't often even get 1 anymore, depending on how I use the note 5. Our device sucks and we do not have any active rom support what so ever. All of our updates now revolve around Google's monthly security patches.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Porcupineomg:
4 to 7 day battery life, 10 hours of screen on time. /r/thathappened

The Xiaomi Note 5 Plus is worse in every aspect compared to the Note 5 besides modern Android support.

Seems like you bought the Note 5 for the wrong reasons.

I guess I value higher quality components over having a newer version of Android.

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Looter:
You must be crazy to invest again on Samsung.

Note 5 was my personal lesson in order to blacklist this company which doesn't respect me as a customer.

You cannot ask your customers to pay a premium price and then abandon them like this...

The company I work gave me the S9+ within the bonus list. Didn't even open the box and sold it with no regrets.

Furthermore Samsung is not leading technology in android anymore.

Want to get the best camera in the market , Samsung is not the option.

Want the best speed in the market , Samsung is not the option.

Want the best battery in the market , Samsung is not the option.

Want the best price/performance ratio , Samsung is not the option.

Want the best android update support , Samsung is not the option.

Want any combination of the above , Samsung is not an option...

NEVER AGAIN Samsung.

[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] gandoe:
I just saw that TWRP had released it's latest version 3.2.3-0; however, it doesn't yet appear to be available for the Tab Pro.

The latest TWRP version listed is 3.1.1-0 picassowifi; and I had problems with random bootloops with both that version, and the prior versions, 3.1.0-1 and 3.1.0-0.

The last stable version for me is 3.0.2-0; but, that doesn't provide support for "dynamic SD card access" (i.e., using the SD card storage capacity as a seamless part of the total device capacity).

I'm hoping that the newest TWRP version has resolved any problems. Does anyone have any experience with this version? Any idea if/when it might be available?

Is there a support thread hear on XDA, or some other forum where I could find more info?

TIA

Hi there,

First some info on the status of the phone:

***LOCKED***

My HTC One Mini is stuck in fastboot mode loop. Trying to boot to recovery or normal will just take me to fastboot, while none of the options in bootloader work (they mostly just reboot my HTC back into fastboot).

The phone is recognized in fastboot most of the time, and I was able to get the OEM code to unlock the bootloader, and while I could run the unlock code:

sending 'unlocktoken' (0 KB)... OKAY [ 0.154s]

writing 'unlocktoken'... INFOunlock token check successfully

OKAY [ 0.009s]

finished. total time: 0.164s

Nothing happens on the phone screen. Most fastboot commands dont bring any success. E. g. erase cache fails or trying to update things fails, too.

My Win10 PC recognizes the device as "My HTC" when in fastboot USB. I’ve tried the rubber band fix, I’ve tried the FUU fix, and I’ve tried “fastboot oem rebootRUU”, which returns:

INFO[ERR] Cmd18 polling status timed out, MCI_STATUS: 0x4C2000

[Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus Questions & Answers] piyushdiyora:
Hi,

I have Lenovo Vibe K5 Note (A7020A48).

Android Version - 6

Android Security Patch Level - 5th October 2016

Baseband Version - K.52.ROW.M.LWG.V46, 2016/11/25 09:19

Kernel Version - 3.18.22+, buildslave@njbs14#1

Build Number - A7020A48_S318_161128_ROW.

My phone was not working properly, it used to hang every now and then, so I decided to flash the ROM using,

Lenovo_A7020a48_S318_MT6755_20161128 firmware and SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1824_Win.

I followed the procedure as shown in the youtube video. However, as soon as the flash process starts I get the following error

ERROR : STATUS_SEC_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER (0xC002004B)

[HINT]: Verified boot is Enabled. Please download signed image (md1img-verified.img) or disable verified boot.

Now My phone does not start at all (Hard Brick)

Is there any work around to solve the problem. Am I missing anything?

Regards,

With this finally being released, do you think we'll get the update on our devices or will we be stuck on Oreo
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mostling:
Sometime next year maybe.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] all the pugs:
Of course the P20 Pro will get Android 9. It would be a huge embarrassment for Huawei if it didn’t. I‘m pretty confident it will happen, maybe even in late 2018. I‘m secretly also hoping for Android 10.
[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] walkerx:
I hope it does, but with how Huawei updates phones I have feeling we may not see it anytime within the next 6 - 12 months. Look at the mate 10 Pro, still no Oreo 8.1 and how long as that been out.

[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] walkerx:
But a lot of users in UK who have received the C782 model aren't getting these updates and thus reason why they are not happy about the update process. It's luck if you got the C432 model and Huawei won't advise which resellers are selling them.

Lucky we've just received update with July security fixes, prior to that we got one last month with June's update and the update before that was the update that included April's security fixes.

They should have just released one version of the phone for all markets so everyone got same updates.

[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] walkerx:
The Mate 10 Pro is still on 8.0 and it was released November last year and is classed as flagship device, yet only had 2 updates this year which included March and June Security updates.

So probably won't get 8.1 until earliest November and 9 sometime next year.

As for P20 Pro with the new Mate 20 imminent then we won't see an update on the device until after that is released and probably not till next year.

[Huawei P20 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] :
All of the recent fables about Android 9.0 for the P20 pro stem from a heresay article published my South African Mybroadand

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MyBroadband

This is the original article

https://mybroadband.co.za/news/smartphones/272343-when-huawei-smartphones-will-get-android-9.html

Having being personally stung by Huawei in the past, and given their rather unreliable/inconsistent firmware update policy (just read this thread) then you know what I'd like ....

A simple confirmation from Huawei themselves. Or perhaps a real announcement at a forthcoming show. Hey Huawei how about IFA 2018?

No matter how good a companies latest product, unless you have infinite funds (and don't mind extreme waste) then re-buying the latest phone from manufacturer X is a terrible long term marketing strategy, closely followed by a locked bootloader in the Android world.

So as a still Huawei fan, it would take so little for them to get wise:

- Allow bootloader unlock

- Give clear guidance to existing customers about OS & Security Upgrade Strategy

- Make Upgrades uniformly available worldwide, at the same time, for all SubModel types e.g. UK version, Chinese version
