The battery appears to be fine. I charged it overnight, and it still seems to hold a decent charge.

I haven't really got the tools to dissasemble it fully, but I will give it a go sometime in the next few weeks (i've got a copy of the service manual on my computer, so that shouldn't be a problem).

I only really got it out to play around with it again, and possibly try some apps on. It still appears to work fine apart from the screen (and the o2 applications now missing due the extended rom format, but i'm not bothered about those). I've installed the my mobiler screen program on my laptop so I can at least view the screen properly using that.

Thanks for the suggestions anyway.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Myrddin Wyllt:
Well, this certainly changes things. You have a bad screen, or a bad connection to the screen. You can get replacement for around $100USD, or you can try to get a broken unit with a good screen for less (maybe). I'd still disassemble it first, though, in case it's just a weak connection.

Hi guys!

I'm looking for a guide on how to fix the terrible voice quality for the phone (making videos)

I've tried solutions from other Mi phones but it did not work for the MI A2

I have unlocked bootloader & root if it's needed.

I tried adding this in build.prop:

ro.qc.sdk.audio.fluencetype=fluencepro (also tried as fluence and none)

I've tried several unsuccessful changes to the files:

audio_platform_info, media_profiles_vendor, mixer_paths_mtp

If you have any solution comment please!

So I decided to switch to Lineage OS from OOS Beta so I wiped everything and flashed LOS 15.1 + Blu_Spark r132 and Magisk 17.2 but when I checked the SafetyNet Check the ctsProfile fails, I also tried again without blu_spark kernel no difference what so ever. Is there something I can do to get it to pass?

'Mutagen Astronomy' Linux kernel vulnerability sighted

Just thought you guys would want to take a look at this. Not sure if it applies to our tablets, but it looked interesting.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] Llamos:
In order to exploit this bug, a system must have 32GB of RAM to allocate in false pointers according to Qualys' analysis of an implementation. It also requires that a normal user have access to call a root-owned binary that has this method in it. It's possible that one could be found in the files of some of the tablets, but it could also be locked away. Regardless, we don't have 32GB of RAM in any Fire tablets :p

Cool find though!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Youssef93:
Hi everyone,

I have an S8 which after the oreo update its battery performance decreased significantly.

its overnight drain was around 30 - 40 % (no use, no AOD).

However I did something that fixed it and i hope it is the same issue with everyone else so that yo can fix it too.

It's the DUAL SIM

I disabled the dual sim from the sim card manager & now my phone is only working wth one sim. There is a HUGE increase battery performance where now the overnight drain is 3% !!!!.

I hope this helps everyone with the same problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] sp1312:
I am using single sim only from quite a few time.. but still 30-35% of battery drain overnight. Not sure what to do:(
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Youssef93:
I am not sure what is your problem. I'd also note that this only improved the standby time. However the usage time is still bad. For example yesterday I spent an hour chatting on whatsapp & it drained more than 20%. I'm not sure why samsung isn't doing anything about it & I'm thinking of downgrading to Nougat
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Tiongkia:
How do you disable? Tks
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Youssef93:
Settings -> Connections -> Sim Card Manager

Press on SIM2 & disable it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Tiongkia:
I cannot. Maybe because i did not have 2nd sim insert.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] gazzawazza:
I found a recent reduced battery life on my S8 was resolved with a factory reset.

Anecdotally, a cache partition wipe can help too, though that might just be because (i believe) it forces apps to re-optimise themselves.

Btw, if you had 2 SIMs in and effectively stopping use of 1 slot has improved battery life, then a) try reseating both SIMs b) get new SIMs. Otherwise, maybe it's the SIM reader itself i.e. a hardware issue (which might be that component or a problem on the mainboard).

I guess it could be a software glitch.

I read that the firmware is different for single and dual SIM handsets - you defo using the correct firmware for your handset?

Gary

i recently replaced the lcd and also have the same issue. It detected that my screen is covered so i can't hang on a call because the screen wont turn on.

but suddenly it works when i cleanup the screen with a damp cloth. but sometimes it doesnt work.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] Spaceoid:
I know this thread is super old, but before I start a new one on exactly this - I had to disassemble my phone to replace the audio jack, and since then, my proximity sensor won't work at all. I double checked the flex cable and plug, tested the sensor outside the phone, still nothing. It ONLY works if I put sth white or metal-like exactly 2 mm away from the screen, no nearer, no further. Its super strange and annoying. Was anybody able to solve this?

Edit: LED and ambient light sensor (which is exactly the same sensor) are working! And before the sensor stopped working I did not even touch it at all!
[Moto E5 Questions & Answers] TinTrapezoid:
Okay so this is my first post so don't crucify me but I have a Moto e5 Plus (xt1924-8) on Boost Mobile. I currently have the stock rom on my phone as that has working data. Since this device launched with treble support, I figured I'd try flashing some GSIs. The one I had settled on was Resurrection Remix as it had the most working features. In the thread for the GSI https://xdaforums.com/moto-e5/development/gsi-resurrection-remix-o-6-1-0-t3843928 it says that you should be able to flash on top of the stock rom. However, when I do that, everything works fine except for mobile data. I tried reflashing and editing APN settings all to no avail. It's not the modem firmware as I reflashed that as well. Can anyone tell me what I could try to get mobile data working in RR on the xt1924-8?

Hey, do you have the method available for how you got root for the boost mobile variant?
[Moto E5 Questions & Answers] TinTrapezoid:
I used the guide for the e5 play. Flash stock, erase data, cache and DDR. Boot, wait for encryption

Then boot twrp don't flash. Flash universal dm verity and encryption remover and then flash magisk 17.1.

That's how I recall it. Probably wrong. Check the thread for the e5 play. Use the difficult route. Sorry :/
[Moto E5 Questions & Answers] wihzard:
The method that worked for me and my 2 Boost E5 Pluses was to:

Unlock boot loader through Motorola website

Reboot phone into bootloader

Fastboot boot into twrp (the boot image "twrp_james" worked for me)

While in twrp, do a backup onto microsd card.

Boot into android and install Magisk manager

Use Magisk to patch your boot.emmc file from your twrp backup

Find the patched-boot file that it output and copy to your pc

Reboot phone into bootloader

Flash the patched-boot file using fastboot flash boot (file name)

Reboot and enjoy ROOT!!!

Just fyi, I didn't do any dm-noverity kernel flashing or flashing twrp to recovery.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pr0lixity:
Hi all

I have just recently bought an 8125 unlocked and for T-Mobile use, but now I'm starting to have issues. My phone suddenly turned off 3 days later, and now it won't start up past the loader screen. I've been looking through every forum I could, and have concluded I must have a bad ROM or something..

Now, I've downloaded an RUU and was told I could use that to reset my ROM, but when I'm in bootloader mode, my computer won't detect it. It says that it's downloading drivers, but it's "device unknown." Some have said to reinstall activesync, but I'm on Vista, so I already have Windows Mobile Center. I know that I need to run an RUU, but if my computer can't recognize my phone, then I'm stuck because the program won't run.

Please, does anyone know what's going on and could help me? My search results have me even more confused. If it helps, i have a G3 (i'm not sure what that means)

Thanks!

US factory unlocked SM-G965U1 on Verizon. Hotspot working fine before update. Did network reset, wipe cache,factory reset, verizon resync, then new update G965U1UES3ARI1 and still very slow (.60 mbps download)
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] CrazyApe18:
How much hotspot have you used this billing cycle? What plan are you on? You're probably just throttled now.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] mrbeefy65:
Unlimited data. Was working well before the update. I was on 7 gb data before the update of course. Verizon did a resync after the update which did nothing.

One big question is who is responsible for the update. I think it's samsung for a factory unlocked phone. Their support denies it. Verizon does too.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] CrazyApe18:
Updates are either sent by Samsung for unlocked firmware or the carrier for branded devices. It's not a conspiracy. You only get so much hotspot. Usually 15GB on VZW unlimited plans. Then it goes down to 600kbps.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] mrbeefy65:
Bad performance from beginning of cycle. Neither Verizon or Samsung mentioned limit. I'm on vz prepaid.

Didn't say conspiracy, just very annoying that Samsung not taking responsibility.

Ubreakifix tried reloading updates, but they did the second one and told me they did the first one.

Also have had lots of lagging apps since that update.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Najnesoog:
Hi

I want to update my SM-G920i to the latest ROM recently issued for some South American countries.

I have an Australian version and its latest ROM was FRD4 with security patch to March 2018. Whereas the latest Uruguayan ROM is FRF4 with security patch to August 2018.

But I want to retain my Australian customisation including the ability to use Samsung Pay with local banks.

I'm looking at the possibility of mixing the latest South American {say the Uruguay (Claro) version} AP, BL, and CP files with an Australian (say Australian XSA) CSC or HOME_CSC file.

Is this possible, particularly without tripping Knox?

I've searched the XDA forums and Google, and only fountd that it was okay for earlier Samsung Galaxys.

Grateful for any advice
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Najnesoog:
Respectful bump ?
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Najnesoog:
Yes - you can mix AP, BL, and CP files with a different CSC!

I have been able to answer my own question!

In short - YES - You can mix AP, BL, and CP files with a different CSC. At least for the SM-G920I version of the S6.

A non-carrier provisioned version of Galaxy S6 in Australia uses XSA firmware.

Samsung last update the XSA version with G920IDVU4FRD3 firmware with a build date of 19 April 2018 and Security Patch Level: 01 March 2018.

The most recent and possibly last S6 firmware is provided for Uruguay (Caro) {CTU} and is called G920IDVU4FRG1 dated 24 July 2018 with Security Patch Level: 01 August 2018.

That's 3 build versions and 5 monthly security patch levels ahead of the latest XSA firmware!

I have a spare S6 with a smashed screen so I have no worries about experimenting.

I downloaded both versions from IMEI.info. I used this website because it provides separate AP, BL, CP and CSC files.

Using Odin v 3.12.3, I loaded the CTU AP, BL, and CP files and the XSA CSC file, crossed my fingers, and 'Start'.

The update ran without a hitch.

I now have an XSA-branded S6 with latest firmware and security patches.

Knox has not tripped, Samsung Pay comes up without any warning, and VoLTE and VoWifi work fine (using Aldimobile over the Telstra network).

I'm very happy because this gives a new lease of life on my primary S6.

Can't say much about Samsung maybe [MENTION=3167089]runningnak3d[/MENTION] might be able to pitch in with his super brain.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] runningnak3d:
The H918 never had full fastboot. It was rootable when it was ARB 0, because there was a kernel exploit that gave temp root and then you could dd TWRP onto the recovery partition.

As for the S5 and older phones in general, Qualcomm security pretty much didn't exist, and therefore Android security didn't exist (same for Apple and jail breaks).

Qualcomm has upped their game drastically by adding security into the CPU. Android and the OEMs take advantage of that to lock us out.

The TMO G7 no longer has an unlockable bootloader, and the V40 won't either.

If you want a phone that can be rooted with an SD845 chip, buy a dev friendly phone.
