[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] swtaltima:
i couldnt agree more with this idea. i have thought of something along these lines before. i always tell people im the dumbest smart person i know. sounds funny but true. i know my tilt like the back of my hand and help many people in my life that have them or something similar. i learned but listening more than speaking. it does seem somewhat epidemic lately with the amount of dumb ass questions being asked.

in response to those who say we shouldnt detour newbs from joining, i agree however we should be more focused on not detouring the actual developers. lets get realistic here, what percentage of members actually contribute here? i know i dont but i am at least a silent learner and donate occasionally. We who do not develop in many ways feed anxiously off of those who actually know what there doing so my opinion is that if we want to keep such people we follow the rules or be banned.

Testing is a perfect idea and hope mods will consider this as a solution. test me if you like. its not like were asking them to cure a disease but rather make sure they have learned the fundamentals first before posting "i have know sound"
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] sundar_amn:
I know there is another thread with the same discussion. But i just created this one just to bring this to Mod attention. Mod can delete / lock this post.

1) You cannot stop a new user from being posting questions. You never know what he is going to share/ask - a new user for this forum not necessarily new to his device and always asking 'many-times-answerd' questions.

2) You cannot ask them to write a test. That requires lot of work on framing the right questions for the user.

I am suggesting we have sections like below

1) New User - Post only your questions/answers. (All can post in this section. But no file sharing. Only questions & anawers. Senior people can browse this section during their free time and can answer the questions)

2) Advanced User - Post only your questions/answers (Only Member and Senior member can post in this section,. New user can post reply but should not be able to create new thread)

3) ROM section - Only for ROM download and error reporting. (Only Chef can create a new thread. All other people can post reply to any thread. Also, all thread in this section should have the section titled with date for the user to quickly understand the latest one. Dutty used to do this. Is possible all threads in this section can be a stick so that the order will not change)

4) Software Section - 'completed' version software download for the specific device. A thread can be created only with screenshot and a vaild .cab, .zip or .exe file. For posting reply there shouldnt be any restriction.

5) Accesseries section - Name says it.

This is just my suggestion.

good idea but u could have just posted in the other thread..
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] redbandana:
I completely agree with what you say above but i do not agree with your forum suggestions. There is no need to change the forum format and segregate n00bs to their own little section where they would essentially learn nothing, unless experienced members hung out in there from time to time. Its fine the way it is. It just appears people like to complain or get upset when n00bs post without searching, in the wrong section, or just some stupid **** (i often do this because im confused). The only way to solve it is by telling them to read the wiki, gweni, and forum rules and go on with our day.

what about making a section for quistions and problems inside the section of upgrading rooms ?!

why didn't anyone think about that !

wouldn't it be nicer before thinking to punish them ?!

and also why don't we put a clear announcement on the top of the page to put your quistions in the quistions section ?!

just an idea and all forums are doing that

there must be a section for problems and quistions

Are you kidding?

There are allready several threads about this!!!

It's even mentioned a few times in the WIKI!

Read before you post!

Sorry, couldn't resist...

I'm just joking...

I think a short period of just reading and no posting after registering would be great. Taking a test seems like to much work and we don't want the noobs to stay away, 'cause one day they will be the new experts...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] tilt007:
Search or Post popup

My 2 cents, though this will require some php web development work (maybe moderators or site admins/developers are up to this)

Everytime a noob starts a new thread, the forum software should let him do that as-is till the last step (I mean, let him type his noob question, and hit on the "Post" button).

At this point though, just before actually starting a new thread, the forum software will check if this user is a noob, (based on whatever factors, e.g. number of previous posts, time he has been a member etc etc), and if the user is a noob, a message box (popup page) should pop up saying, Do you want to search instead of posting? On this popup page will also be a section where search results (based on keywords from the users original not-yet-posted post) are hyperlinked. The search results do not have to be perfect, just enough to show the guy that searching IS AN OPTION.

At the bottom of the popup, he will have a button to really post his question, at which point, the software will let him create a new thread.

Once a user has seen, like, 10 of these popups (for 10 questions), he can be considered not-noob and does not need to see this annoying popup anymore. Existing senior members etc will, by definition, never see this popup page.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Say94:
Hello! this is my first thread.

Normally I wouldn't take the trouble to write about a problem of this sort and just search for a similar and resolved one in forums, but this time I couldn't find any.

My tablet is a Polaroid a900x, used mostly for work and social media. It was working incredibly fine before I installed Xposed and an Xposed module along with it over a year ago. Now every time I boot it, it shows the logo and never arrives to the home screen, instead there appears constantly these error messages:

Even if I click "Ok" on all of them, they keep appearing.

So far I have tried to

wipe data/factory reset

and

wipe cache partition

without success.

Could someone help me find a solution or explain to me what happened?

I already took it to a "Technic" which just told me I should better buy a new one, preferably of a "better" brand...

Thanks in advance! (and I hope this is the right forum)

[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Ibanez33:
Hoping someone can help solve this issue, plus would be interested to know if anyone else has experienced similar.

I have a USB DAC (ZooperDAC) that I used to use with all my phone without issue. Somewhere along the line the essential phone has stopped functioning correctly (it detects the device and out puts audio sounds like an issue with sample rate).

I use the DAC via an OTG dongle and have tested with different dongles without any change.

If I use the DAC with my nexus 6p it works perfectly

If I use the DAC with my computer it works perfectly

Other usb devices work fine with the essential phone via my OTG dongles.

I feel sure its not a hardware issue but any ideas would be appreciated.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dinh1999:
Title says it all, after having gone through a ton of different processes trying to fix this, scouring the internet and finding what i thought were solutions, I just simply cant get past the boot screen...

So I find myself here, in what i hope is the right place to be.

I will explain what happens and what i've done to try and fix this, and if there is anything I can do to help assist any of you that may know the answer to my problem, please just let me know what i need to do, whether it be posting a video of what is happening on my phone or whatever, just let me know.

So I rooted my s6 (tmobile) a couple weeks ago, which was the first time i had rooted a phone in probably 8 years, but it was super easy this time compared to back then.

Then I made the mistake of turning off Custom OEM lock yesterday for some reason, not even sure why i did it, and now im here. Unable to flash anything, it always fails.

I've tried flashing the stock firmware, the latest firmware, and my custom firmware again, all to no avail. Maybe I'm not flashing the correct firmware from Sammobile, not sure, just frustrated to my wits end and could use a little bit of help, anyt suggest at all I am willing to try. I did make a backup on Titanium, if I can just get back into the phone I can recover everything i hope, but if i lose everything then so be it.

Thanks for reading, look forward to hearing from you guys :)

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] uberamd:
Hey folks,

I've got a relatively simple question about the V30. I've got an AT&T LG V30 which I used the frankenstein method to unlock the bootloader and convert to US998.

What I'm trying to understand is whether or not any of the LineageOS ROMs, or the 9.0 ROM, will work on the AT&T converted V30. My takeaway thus far is that they will NOT work on my device, and my attempts to flash the ROMs echo this, but I'm looking for a more definitive answer.

Am I dumb and just "doing it wrong", or is the 931 converted to 998 unable to run these ROMs?

Cheers!
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
No, they won't for now.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] me2151:
Please read around. There are multiple places saying it doesn't work. I am working on this. It is a slow process.

For a definitive. It does NOT work.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] uberamd:
I've been looking, however I wasn't able to find if that was for all ROMs, some ROMs, maybe it works now and not at the time the reply was made, etc. It'd be cool if ROMs had a callout on the top post (as it gets updated when there are new releases) saying "INCOMPATIBLE WITH" or something along those lines. Just a thought.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] SGCMarkus:
Thats what i have the FAQ for ^^

I list compatible devices there.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] uberamd:
Ohhh, see, I'm dumb and see the line in the FAQ that says:

And think "oh, I now have a US998 since I converted my 931, so this ROM should work for me."

Most of my lack of making since of this probably stems from the fact that I swear XDA used to have a set of forums for each carriers version of the device, but in the case of the V30, all carrier releases are clumped together under one section.

Thanks for your help! I'll look specifically for 931 in the device list and remember that even though I converted to a US998 via frankenstein, it's not actually a 998.

Cheers!
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Yes, previously that was the norm -- even completely separate forums for each carrier, but then most users just focused on THEIR variant/their carrier and missed compatible developments that other variants of the same phone had. "Unified" development is better. TWRP/ROMS for all where possible.*

In this case, if you had a separate H931 or H933 forum, right now there would be no custom ROMs available. All you would have is stock-based ROMs like Boombox. It's also entirely possible we wouldn't have even figured out (together) that someone could flash to US998 in the first place to get bootloader unlock and root. It still might be only original US998 and H930 which have bootloader unlock and root with bootloader unlock codes doled out by LG.

But due to the one forum, and shared development that's how [b [MENTION=6158380]TxanMoe[/MENTION] accidentally discovered WTF bootloader unlock while using Frankenstein.[/B] [MENTION=3167089]runningnak3d[/MENTION] helped him recover his phone when he ill-advisedly tried to flash his H931 to European H930 after first converting to US998 and running some old Huawei bootloader unlock code he found in an LG G4 forum Yeah, he bricked his phone and we all smirked because he was doing stuff that seemed crazy. But after his phone was recovered, his bootloader was indeed unlocked. That became the foundation of

WTF bootloader unlock and root.

Without a unified forum, I'm not sure enough people would have paid attention. [MENTION=6158380]TxanMoe[/MENTION] would have just bricked his phone and that would have been the end of it; he would have moved onto another phone and we would not have realized the wonderful discovery of the LG bootloader unlock exploit.

There are devs working on the problem of H931 and H933 on AOSP ROMs.

________

* In the Moto Quark forums (Droid Turbo/Moto Maxx/Moto Turbo -- all the same model phone, just different names for some strange reason) the CM dev at the time make sure his stock CM Quark kernel (the foundation of all custom ROMs) was compatible with Droid Turbo when it finally got bootloader unlock a YEAR after all the others. Thus all those variants could run the SAME CM/Lineage-based ROMs and have the same TWRP. The dev that succeeded him [MENTION=2030317]BHB27[/MENTION] kept up that tradition.

It started out as one forum, but then the Droid Turbo owners complained because their bootloader was not unlocked and they were tired of seeing all the "development" the other phone were getting. So, the forums were split almost a year after release, and ONE MONTH LATER the Droid Turbo bootloader was unlocked and suddenly they WANTED all that development back! That's where I saw it was a mistake to split forums. It's better to keep them all together so they can share development.

In the same vein, the V30S should NOT have a separate forum. That was an XDA mistake. It's a V30 Joan, just like all other V30 and all V30S should be here. This is where the V30S ROMs are, this is where the V30S TWRP (Joan) is, this is where the WTF bootloader unlock and root is. They should merge the V30S forum with this one and use that space for something else...

MSCEINf update is only for those who want to use the program in Command Mode for making batch tasks.

Contributions of version 2.1

· MSCEInf Version 2.1 adds ability to extract in command mode CAB files in a folder preserving subfolders names.

Syntax is a bit rigid with a keyword extract (separed by a space) after CAB name. This keyword allows creation of INF file and files extraction (with correct names) while preserving subfolders names.

A second parameter optional is folder name where to extract files. If omitted, folder name will be :

"c:\ExtractDir".

Program creates the folder if it does not exist.

For example write like here (do not forget to separe each parameters by a space and put path in double quotes) :

msceinf "C:\Users\Benoit\Documents\a.cab" extract​

and files are extracted in folder "c:\ExtractDir".

or give folder name where to extract :

msceinf "C:\Users\Benoit\Documents\a.cab" extract "C:\Users\Benoit\Documents\My extracted files"​

and files are extracted in folder "C:\Users\Benoit\Documents\My extracted files".

[MTCD Android Head Units General] nununz:
I have a 1 DIN car radio with octacore PX5-CPU and Android 6, connected to the original automatic antenna of my Mazda MX5. When the radio starts the antenna drives out, so far so good. But when I turn the radio of (push the button), the antenna stays out. Only when I turn out the car and pull the car-key, the antenna drives in.

Before I bought this radio I had the same one with Android 4.4.4 and quadcore CPU and this radio works fine with the automatic antenna.

I have already searched in the settings to change the control of the automatic antenna. But without success.

Any idea what it could be?

Thanks for help :)
[MTCD Android Head Units General] verszipo:
It's a long shot, but You could try and see if You can "kill" the Radio application (stop it from running) and see if that makes the antenna retract.

It might be that even though you stop the radio the app itself remains in memory and the car's electronics "sees" it and doesn't retract the antenna until the app is stopped (by stopping the HeadUnit completely).
