Can't make it work

Hi! I trying to install this ROM on my tablet with TWRP and can't seem to make it work.

I followed the instructions:

I wiped (dalvik/art cache, data, cache and system) first

then went to Install and found my image and installed it (selected system image partition to flash - I have to say it went kinda fast not sure if it should, but did not error out)

now I went on to install gapps and here I encounter my first problem: it failed saying that GApps pkg is only for Android 9.0.x ONLY | Please download the correct version for your ROM: 8.1.0 (SDK 27) and exited with Error Code: 20 (now I'm starting to think that it did not install the ROM correctly in the previous step)

I try to reboot the system then and I get prompted with a message saying that No OS Installed! Are you sure you wish to reboot? (which is kinda weird)

after reboot it goes to fastboot and stays there

I am able to restore to a previous backup that I've made, but I really want to install this custom ROM.

Can somebody tell me what I'm doing wrong and point me in the right direction?

Thanks a lot!
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] peter.fretter:
I think I found the root cause of my problems.

Because I'm a noob in regards to custom ROMs I thought I had to unpack the archive AOSPExtended and just get the boot.img from there and install it.

So after figuring this out I just copied the whole archive on my device went to Install on TWRP, selected the archive and everything went all right, even Gapps installed correctly.

This is not GSI image, what you installed?

You don't need to flash it via install image just flash zip file and gapps. it will work

Hi thanks for your work. I love this ROM on my X2 Leeco The max 2, and I will test it on my mi pad 4.

Just two questions:

1 / AEX for MI PAD 4, will she soon have an official status?

2 / Are the following options available in AEX mi pad 4 ?

DT2W to wake the screen / raise the mid pad 4 to wake the screen

Thank you for everything.

Hi Guys

I have a few questions about running a tytn2 with tomtom and having it in a car cradle making and receiving calls whilst using tomtom.

A is this possible, how well does it work?

What happens to the tomtom voice when the call is in progress?

Can the tomtom run on the tytn2 without a sim card in it or does it need gprs connection?

In essence how well does it work and is it reccommendable?

Tom
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] branko.savic:
It is possible!

Yes it is possible to recieve calls when using TomTom, if you answer an incoming call the sound of TomTom will be muted untill you finish your call, however you will still be able to see the map and know where you are!

TomTom does not need any gprs connection so you can run it without sim card but you have to turn your phone on or it will asume flightmode and not activate the GPS!

TomTom works great on the Tytn II, I have an HTC Advantage and the Tytn II is much faster then the advantage when it comes to finding and calculating the route!

So I will say that you should go for it!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] foxriver77:
YES

It doesnt need a GPRS connection so it Works whitout SIM card too.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] adfds:
I read a lot of threads back when the Poco F1 was released and a lot of people complained about low volume of audio output from headphone jack and low clarity.

It is very hard to compare audio quality if you dont have 2 devices side by side.

So I request people who have the Poco F1 and some other phone like the Redmi Note Pro, Moto, Nokia etc to compare the volume and audio clarity.

If you have MIUI device use the same audio settings.

Can anyone please do this?

Edit: Sorry for double post. Thread was not showing up so I replied in the other post.

3.5 Headphone sound is low compared to other devices ..
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] ClementNerma:
For my part, I'm really impressed by the sound quality of this device (for the headphone jack at least, I don't use the speakers for music).

I'm currently using a Sennheiser Momentum (Circum-aural, M2 model). I listen to music with it on my Honor 5C (previous phone), my Asus laptop (which has a great headphone jack). I'd say that, for a mobile phone, it's one of the best jack output you can get - which is especially impressive given the price tag of this device.

The crosstalk is pretty good, though the instruments are not as separated and the sound stage not as clear as on my laptop. The only problem you may face with this output if you are using high-impedance headphones, because the Pocophone doesn't have a very good output power.

That's all I have to say ;)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] sandcruz:
What is the best budget earphone (below 20$) that can be used with Poco F1?? (should have enough bass and loudness)

With my samsung OME earphones it sounds very dry

I have seen some reviews saying KZ ES4 is quite good for the price?

will that work well with the POCO F1?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] dannejanne:
I agree. Pocophone has one of the most impressive audio outputs I have ever had on a phone. Besides my Pocophone I have both an LG G7 and LG V10 so I know how well phone can sound with quality output. the Pocophone is really not too far behind them. That says something. Some people confuse audio quality with volume.

With Mi Sound Enhancer enabled with the right type of headphones it sounds very well and then you can further tweak it to your liking with the equalizer that is better than the one on LG phones. Very good spacious sound on the Pocophone.
[General Questions and Answers] AlexNec01:
Hello everyone, recently I've flashed the Superman ROM V.3.0.1 on my S7 Edge and everything was fine until I went to general settings on my phone and saw my IMEI is now UNKNOWN. I know this thread may be already solved, and yes, these days I was looking for answers for my problem but I need to know for sure what alternatives I have to recover my IMEI. I have to mention, my phone is 100% original, it has its own IMEI from the beginning, not a copy or MTK device. I saw some sollutions based on some kind of programs to restore manually the IMEI with a command, and this method for me it's not like the best thing to do in this situation..

When I am dialing *#06# I receive the following information: " SM-G935F is not supported on showIMEI ".

I've checked through TWRP ( version 3.1.1.0 ) the partition EFS, is still there ( it has 2mb ). What do you guys think about this? Flashing the stock ROM from sammobile may solve my problem? What alternatives do I have?

Thank you!

Has anyone changed their front glass? I cracked mine, the screen itself is fine but the glass is cracked. Can I change just the glass? I see they sell it
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Bakuryu91:
It is possible, but I woudn't recommend doing it. It's a complex procedure that requires specific hardware (a heat gun, 3M tape, etc.) and skill.

Buy a factory-assembled screen + digitizer, it'll save you the hassle.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] godkingofcanada:
I can pay a shop $70 to swap the front glass, that way if it breaks they have to fix it, and they have the equipment. Making the repair cost $100. But the whole LCD and digitizer and front is 139.99. I think it looks about $50 cheaper to change just the glass, even with paying the store. I've removed glued on backs. Just not screens, I don't want to break a perfectly good screen to fix cracked outter glass :( lol
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Bakuryu91:
The touchscreen consists in two parts, the digitizer and the screen (AMOLED, in our case). The digitizer is glued to the screen using industrial-grade techniques, resulting in ultra-thin laminated layers of very specific glue stacked between the actual pixels and the glass. These layers maximise reflectance, tune the colours, provide hardness and water-resistance to the screen (amongst other features).

For these reasons, while it is possible to glue the digitizer to the screen at home or in a shop, I would strongly advise against it. On a side note, even the factory-assembled aftermarket touchscreens are of lesser quality than what OnePlus produces.
