I use kate. I have been using It sin e mid 2015. Im still choosing what to buy. I cant buy a top 2019 so im still choosing between a used lg v30, a Pocophone or a mi 8. The cheapiest is the lg v30, the poco and mi 8 are almost the same price (both used). Im trying to find one a little bit cheaper from the last 2, and there goes my pick

Well, got this phone 1 year ago, after researching a lot, and I got it cheap, for 50 euros. Previous owner had a problem with battery, and the case was deformed, also it has yellow stains at the edges of the screen, not so much, and not visible at all on dark themes ( which I prefer anyway. Also the battery which has been replaced was knock off, and I had 3 hours of SOT, even on nougat roms. I received new batt 1 month ago, now sot is like 7 hrs on PIE roms. I also opened the phone and gently aligned the case so it is straight now, but it is time to replace back of it completely.

Very satisfied, feeling like I got new phone for 12 euros ( price of battery (, and battery is from ebay, shop in dublin, and it looks and feel like original battery. Amazing.

I will not replace the phone for 2-3 more years I am sure.

Though i would love to use it until it dies, I'm shifting to Australia by June. So, there network bands will be an issue. Moreover,since 5g is already available there and OnePlus isn't officially selling smartphones there, I'd rather buy the upcoming 5g iPhone.

But i must say redmi note 3 is a damn nice device. The custom rom community has been fantastic. This phone was launched on Android 5.1, now it's running android 10. What more to expect?

I plan on using it until YouTube stopped supporting it. My 2GB model started to get slow since Nougat, no matter what kind of combination of custom room and kernel I used, Google Assistant still took a while to start. I ended up reverting to Marshmallow based Xiaomi.eu rom. Everything feels snappy, got around 800-900MB Free RAM. I plan on keeping it so until it obsolete. At least for my entertainment phone (emulations, games, YouTube and streaming)
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] luklok:
Hello everyone!

After following different topics for a few years on xda this is my first own question. Yaay.

I got the XZ1 yesterday and instead of rooting it I just decided to delete the bloatware and use the lean launcher. I specifically deinstalled these apps:

adb devices
adb shell
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.sonymobile.advancedwidget.entrance
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.facebook.katana

exit
adb reboot

And now "I have the salad" (as we germans say). I can't take pictures anymore with OpenCamera and neither with the stockcamera. Sometimes it works with the stock camera, but the result is just the green picture.

I'm pretty sure that I ****ed up with the above list. Does anybode know what I did wrong and how to "flash" isntall the needed licenses/drivers/whatevers for the camera?

Cheers!
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] xPandamon:
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.sonyericsson.xhs

Don't know what this does but it's the only one not self explanatory. Maybe it's that one?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] luklok:
Thanks for the Quickreply!

com.sonyericsson.xhs seems to be part of the xperia lounge. I don't think that will help the camera :(

Since the PlayStore doesn't have the stock-camera-apk, does anybode know where to download it, or would that be a bad idea?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] 4rz0:
Green pictures mean your phone's bootloader has been unlocked.

You can check this as follows: https://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Android-development/HOW-TO-CHECK-BOOTLOADER-IS-UNLOCKED/td-p/287305

--user 0

means that it'll use root to do the uninstall, which would fail if you aren't rooted.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, the adb documentation isn't clear about the --user option in pm.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] luklok:
I actually got Bootloader unlock allowed: No. So, I don't know if it's now unlocked or locked.

Could I accidentally have unlocked it by adb commands? The Phone is basically brand new (it is refurbished and was sold as "basically new") and also makes that impression. Can hardly imagine that it is rooted.

And another thing: I can't install the camera (got the .apk from apk mirror) again. You guys think it's a smart idea to fully delete the camera via adb or rather not? And if it's a good idea, which are the packages I should deinstall/erase?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] camaro322hp:
No, the

pm uninstall -- user 0

is the way to uninstall system apps without root access. see this link for details: https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] luklok:
So is there anyway to reverse these commands and to install everything alltogether? Even if I don't know what was the wrong thing to deinstall.

Do you guys think that I lost the DRM-Keys? And is there no way to get them back?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] luklok:
Mhh, sorry for the repost. I don't seem to find any solution.

If I just factoryreset the phone, will it work again? Otherwise I guess I have to fully root it and find a work around solution for the camera.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] Inerent:
You didnt lost drm keys. Just reset or flash New firmware. Drm keys are stored in emmc.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] luklok:
I'm getting desperate..

I did the full factory reset and the problemr remains. Pictures stay green (other cameras like snapcam or opencamera wont work neither).

What are your suggestions, what should I do?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] derf elot:
Since it's a refurbished one, and you didn't explicitly say so (from what I can tell): Did the camera ever work?

I also have the feeling that your bootloader was unlocked already. And if the camera did work at first, maybe some a****** installed the drm fix on it so you didn't even notice.

As a last test I would suggest to grab Xperifirm, download the latest FW for your region and flash it with newflasher. If the bootloader is locked, it _has_ to work after this.

PS: Delete the simlock.ta before flashing.

Good luck.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] DHGE:
I would return the phone.

Refurbished? Maybe the previous owners have unlocked the phone and wiped the DRM-Keys ...
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] mhaha:
This is likely. Check your keys:

In the dialer, type *#*#7378423#*#* to enter the service menu. Tap Service tests > Security

The first three lines should all say [Key OK][Active], and at the bottom FIDO_KEYS : Provisioned

EDIT: Ah, I copied the instructions from a previous Sony model (Z5C), didn't realize they changed the info dump page.

In any case, if you don't see words like ACTIVE, READY, PROVISIONED on this page, then your DRM keys are likely gone.

If so, you should return and demand a replacement or refund, since Sony may deny warranty service due to missing DRM keys.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] luklok:
Under Key Provision daemon it says:

SOMC FIDO Key: NOT PROVISIONED

SOMC Attest Key: NOT PROVISIONED

Android Attest Key: PROVISIONED

So, according to you the DRM keys are gone. And there's no way that I've caused that by incident by deinstalling the bloat apps described in the first posts via adb?

This sucks...
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] DHGE:
Someone unlocked the bootloader on your phone. They screwed you.

mightily
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] mhaha:
It's not possible using just adb commands, the keys are stored in a highly restricted partition that you can't access without full root privilege.

They're forcibly wiped when the bootloader gets unlocked, which is probably what happened before it got refurbished, and it's permanently unrecoverable. Relocking the bootloader does not bring them back.

If you unintentionally figured out how to access them using adb commands, you might be eligible for a handsome reward from XDA donators or Google for finding a critical security flaw.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] Dany XP:
Never buy refurbished PHONES (it's ok for other stuff though)...
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] luklok:
Hello again!

I got a full refund and it was probably exactly like you guys said. Thanks very much for your help.

Got another XZ1C, I actually like that phone a lot. Still some things that are bothering me (e.g. no skipping a tracks with the volume rockers or no way to edit the icons in the quick..), but gonna figure sth out for that to :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andreizet96:
Hello!

I'm currently modding a fireTVstick and I've run into some problems. I hope someone here can help me. Thanks in advance!

I'm going to explain this in detail so to have some context but the ideea is that I need a way to understand what each package does, not only on a fireTVstick but on Android in general

I'm trying to uninstall the package(s) that has/have to do with the startup screen where you are asked to select the language and wifi network followed by updates check and I managed to do this by using this guide:

https://xdaforums.com/fire-tv/general/disable-bloatware-2nd-gen-fire-tv-stick-t3674629

Why I need to uninstall these packages is a whole other story, which is quite long and doesn't really matter. I'll explain it if anyone is curious.

It uninstalled a lot more than I needed and I am trying to follow it step by step, package by package.

The ideea is, though, to get an index of the amazon packages so to see exactly what I am uninstalling and what not, since some of these are not really self-explanatory.

I found this index https://developer.android.com/reference/packages but it seems to lack all amazon apps.

So is there any way to find and index or at least to understant what each of these packages do?

Hope this is a right place to post this, I don't really know my way around with forums so if I did something wrong please give me a heads up and I'll delete this. Aldo posted on FireTV forum but it's kinda dead there.

Thank you! :fingers-crossed:

[Android Head-Units] Dj_Ziio:
I've spent most of the last week researching android units and it can be a real headache. I thought I'd come to the headquarters of android knowledge and see if anyone could give me some direction.

I'm looking for a universal fit double din android 8.0 unit that is capable of flashing Malaysk ROMs for PX5. I've found a few but none that have all the features I want, or at least don't have them listed. I don't care whether it has a disk drive or not but I would really like wireless android screen mirroring, rca output for 5 channels and an internal dsp that offers time alignment. I would also prefer a 6.5 to 7 inch screen for flush mounting in my car. I've managed to find a unit I liked, the EONON GA2171S, which has everything I want but it says it requires usb for screen mirroring with android phones. I'm not even sure if it will work with the firmware either. Any advice would be appreciated.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Snowreaper:
I'm currently using Dutty's Hybrid ROM released April 1 and using the default radio that comes with it. The BT is really bad sounding. Lots of crackling and pop's. I'm using the Z9 BlueAnt and it sounded fine on the stock ATT and Duttys March 28 release 5.2.19199. I've updated the Z9 firmware and it still sounds poor.

Can this be fixed by trying a dif radio? And if so, can anyone recommend a good radio?

Sorry if this has been answered before but i've been searching and not really finding anything.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] A7LAS:
What radio are you currently using?

Also there is a bluetooth audio fix cab out there somewhere that might help.

Edit: I think, indeed, I'm sure I need the boot.img of the rom that I have or lineage, but I do not know how to extract it from the zip.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] yorkberliner:
Hi,

okay. I think the best way is you flash first the original Firmware from here with Xiaomi Flash Tool. DLoad and install on your PC. DLoad and read this Site.

Now you have the original Firmware installed. Go to settings, about the Phone, Buildnumber. Tab 7 times on it and than go to the Developer. Open OEM and US-Debugging. Reboot into Fastboot. In ADB/Fastboot write "fastboot devices" and your device must recogniced. Than write "fastboot oem unlock". After this you get a reboot to system. Now look again iin settings, devoloper if oem and usb-debugging on. Reboot in fastboot your Phone. Now write again "fastboot devices". Is everythink okay than write "fastboot boot recovery-3.2.1-2-oreo.img". Now you have twrp installed. In twrp flash the twrp-recoveryinstaller-3.2.1-2-oreo.zip. After this you can flash your favoryte Custom Rom. Good Luck :good:

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Ak7J4:
I already know that T-Mobile and Lg have placed some files to slow the phones and all stock-based roms have removed this. But for the past few months I wasn't able to access the T-MOBILE App for some reason . I contacted the T-Mobile ppl and they said the app scans files to check for root and based on that, they can choose to intensionally not allow rooted phones. This is obviously the app abusing it's storage permissions, similar to Pkmn Go. Pkmn Go at least uses it to stop cheaters. But the T-Mobile app should have no reason to check our personal files.
