[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] cypher187:
There are updates to Oreo for model FRD-L09C432 (B562, actually). You can find it with Firmware Finder by Team-MT. Just do a forum search for instructions. There are several install guides.

Which way you install the update depends on your situation. Is the official way not working for you? I suggest you try it with HiSuite and update via USB cable. It's the easiest and safest way.

As I had unlocked bootloader and TWRP installed I used HuRUpdater using this guide and it worked well (even if it's already released - it doesn't matter - you only need to choose correct firmware; model / region / version: FRD-L09/C432/B562)

Thanks cypher used the hi suite on Oreo now all good

I made a backup of my phone with LOS16 on twrp. I backed.up "boot, system and data", then when I go to restore I load it up and the phone restarts to the "pocophone" startup screen. After waiting the phone goes to fastboot mode.

How. Do I take a proper backup on POCO with twrp so I can switch rims easily?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] mikussj3:
My solution: flash rom - Los16 (kernel,magisk if you used etc.) and restor only DATA

I's there something I missed or it was just a fluke?

It happened yesterday and I just reloaded the rom from scratch(all useful data is on SD anyway) , just wanted to know if I can avoid it in the future. Thanks man
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] TNSMANI:
Go with the default settings for backup in TWRP. You will not have any issue. But one word of caution, use the same version of TWRP for backup and restore. Otherwise you MAY face issues.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Mooatreides:
i did it was the three selected i mentioned but still it was wierd, my phone stayed on "pocophone" screen for a while then went to fastboot. I turned it off and relaunched into TWRP and reinstalled the rom.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] hyborian:
When backing up, select system image Instead of system, and vendor image instead of vendor. It's the same, and no more problems when restoring.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Mooatreides:
I'm using the official twrp. This has worked for you? On official

Skype

I've been using Skype for about 5 months now. I average 500mb a month, and less than 100 minutes, so they have to know. I haven't had any issues... except for tmo's network speed being kinda slow. Callers can hear the difference, and sometimes I still have to wait till I get to a WiFi spot. But yes, it is against the tos, if you really care. I gave up on tzones and got the total internet add on, so I plan on getting my money's worth. Make sure you're overclocked and good on memory or you'll have some serious delays.
[Wing, P4350 General] TimSykes:
I talked to TMobile CS, and I was told its not covered in their TOS.
[Wing, P4350 General] supyo:
I've worked for T-Mobile Customer Care for a long long loooooooooooooong time... it doesn't violate the T&C but check out section 7. It basically says we can cut you off if you abuse it. I have never seen anyone cut off for too much data usage (and look how many 'o's I put in 'long'). My advice is go nuts.

Hi everyone;

I flashed the latest TWRP (3.2.3-1) today but it seems that it can't read my NTFS SD card, so i formatted it using F2FS (i heard it is sd friendly), now i get "task failed" whenever i try to copy/paste anything to it from my internal phone memory, the weird thing is that "es file explorer" ask for root permition to paste in my SD card

I'm using AospExtended 181205 build (android pie), but i remember facing that problem even with android Oreo.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] kmaljane:
I re-formatted my SD card using ext4, but still can't copy a thing to my SD card.

The SD card i'm using is a Samsung evo+ 128gb.

If i use f2fs or ext 4: i won't be able to copy a thing on it.

If i use NTFS i won't be able to access my SD card from TWRP

FAT is not an option as i will lose the ability to store large files.

What can i do guys?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] kmaljane:

[Honor View 20 Guides, News, & Discussion] miststudent2011:
Hi all this thread is about the front camera of Honor View 20.

We have been seeing various articles and reviews about 48MP back camera but there isn't much info regarding front camera.

[IMG="Front Camera"]https://i.imgur.com/Vtb0Uw7.jpg[/IMG]

After various leaks Honor View 20 got released in China. It is yet to be released world wide which is going to take place on January 22nd.

From the renders and reviews and various hands-on we got to know that Front camera is a 25MP camera with AI feature and f/2.0 aperture.

On paper specs look like one of the cameras from the recent mobiles.But its placement makes it different from other cameras.

Honor considers Hole-punch Screen Technology is the replacement for the Notches in order to have high STB ratio and for utilizing maximum screen real-estate and is one of the key selling point for Honor View20.

The Honor View20 has a big “All-View” display with the in-display hole, which is only 4.5mm wide. According to available data it is to be considered as the smallest hole when compared with other models which have similar camera placement.

From the available data it is to be noted that it is assembled with 0.1mm precision with 5-axis Ring Dispensing.

You might have heard that due to camera punching through each layer of the display it has a greater chance of light leaking through. This design could result in poor quality selfies. There’s also the problem of the display’s durability being compromised by the design.This could cause a display be be easily broken.

But Honor mentions that it has overcome all the issues through its special technique called pixel transition technology, which controls the flow of liquid crystals, enabling light to go through and reach the camera along the liquid-crystal layer .

I think it is better than the Notches and is nice to look .

Do come and share your opinion regarding this.
[Honor View 20 Guides, News, & Discussion] pdanielf:
I like the placement of the camera. I did not find it very noticeable when holding the View 20. Plus its location in the upper left corner means it will be under my left thumb when gaming and the phone is held in landscape orientation. I did not get a chance to try watching anything on the View 20, but I do not believe its location will be a distraction for me personally.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Forever Alone:
Hi when I open paytm app it lags for 20-30 seconds and then works smoothly.. And about AJIO SHOPPOJNG app it doesn't lag while opening but lags throughout usage. I have used these apps on stock ROM and it doesn't lag. I feel that webview is causing all such apps to lag.

I have felt this issue on:

Lineage OS

Syberia OS

I use opengapps.org' Pico GApps.

In fact almost all my phones running on custom ROMs have paytm lag I don't know why whereas on stock ROM they're great. Hope someone else is also facing this issue.

Ps: on my earlier devices running custom ROMs oreo too I was facing this issue.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Saswata Chakraborty:
I guess it happens because custom ROMs use Android System Webview instead of Chrome Webview. Install Chrome which will change the system webview to Chrome automatically. And see if you still notice the issue. If the problem still persists, then it's not due to webview implementation.

I cant make any call. My phone dials and connect but i cant hear the other side. Also the other side cant hear me...

Is this ROM (lineage) or Kernel related? Because i use the blu spark kernel
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] whizeguy:
Could be kernel, could be anything debloat related, could be mods, could be a lot of things. You didn't give allot of information.

Did it work with stock kernel? Did it work before/if you installed modules? Try other kernel.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] Brainstatic:
Close to two years after the release of the G5 Plus, we still don't have any reliable way to use the speaker grill LED as a notification light. As I touched on in a previous thread, there are some custom ROMs that enable the LED light for notifications. There's also an app. The app, however, is quite buggy: you have to set things up from scratch after every reboot, and it has a noticeable effect on my phone's performance; sometimes to the point that the back gets uncomfortably warm. There's also a Tasker profile someone made, but I couldn't get that to work reliably either.

Perhaps the end-all solution for using the speaker grill light as a notification LED, in both stock and custom ROMs, is a simple and battery-friendly Magisk or Xposed module. If one of our skilled devs can make something that works, I'll gladly donate to your development efforts. Thanks!
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] dglenn1957:
You can use the "Legacy Light Flow" app as outlined in the post I copied below. I'm using it and it works well.

https://xdaforums.com/g5-plus/how-to/moto-g5-plus-led-light-t3576646/page2

Found another alternate method in some other post, below are the instruction..(only works on rooted devices)

you can use the Light Flow Legacy app to control the led. (https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...owlegacy&hl=en)

Once you've installed it, you must give notification access.

Go to menu > settings > Device Settings and Root > check "root mode" and "run every command as root".

Then go to menu > settings > LED control > Additional LEDs found > check "charging control"

Now, go to menu > notification settings > click the 3-dot menu on any of the items in the list > settings

In the next screen, swipe right to find a tab called Light. Find charging LED and click on it. You'll have an option of turning it "solid".

You also have an option to set its brightness, but that setting didn't change the led's brightness.

On the top right corner, you have an option called "Test". Click on that and switch off your display.

You should see the charging led light up(can also use led notification for missedCalls,messages,whatsapp..........)

I have tried and its working..

[Moto 360] tribalkg:
Hello all,

My baby son managed to damage the flat cable going to touchscreen and ambient light sensor (don't ask how, watch was on my hand) and now touchscreen and light sensor are not working.

Brightness is on low setting and I can't change it.

Is there any way to change the brightness via phone?

I would like to set it to higher level to be able to see anything during the day, until I get a new screen.

I've tried "Watch Display Brightness" app but it's not working. I think that issue is that brightness is not set to manual mode and that's why this app gives no results.

Thanks!

Hello everybody. Great forum full of usefull infos :)

I hope you can help me...

I've got a HTC Touch (Elfin) with WM6 Pro in french edition.

everything works greats but some applications, as some emulators (PocketCommodore64 and PocketNester), that can't find files on storage card.

Both seem not to appreciate the french name of the storage card ("Carte Mémoire") maybe due to the presence of an accentuated character.

For example , browsing for roms in PocketCommodore64 shows about 10 to 15 lines like "Carte M□moire", so I guess there is something wrong in the way the application reads the path.

If I move the roms to the HTC storage, everything works fine.

Is there any way (from registry maybe?) to rename the storage card?

Thank you very much.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] 12ka4:
Use registry editor & follow the below:

Edit 'Storage Card' in the string value of Folder in

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>System>>StorageManager>Profiles >SDMemory> & soft-reset the device.

Also, please use search before posting. Don't unnecessarily create threads.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] undertkr:
Hello everyone,

After I unlocked my device, I've tried most of the roms to find a daily driver. I installed and set them up then backed up all partitions with twrp for each rom so I won't have to reinstall apps, etc. Then I decided to go with xiaomi global rom, restored it using twrp.

But after that it couldn't connect to mobile network (No problem with wifi). I tried to fastboot flash stock China rom but it didn't fix that. A friend of mine suggested to restore qcn file using qpst but the problem is I didn't have any backup with that (I though twrp backup was for entire device, didn't know I needed that).

What do you guys think? Will restoring qcn with QPST will fix my device? If so can anyone share a backup for Mi 8 Pro China version. Or do you think is there another way to fix it?

Hoping you gurus will help me out, thanks in advance.

This is a sad day to be sure. This makes us now totally reliant on custom ROMs to receive updates. Stock users are left with Oreo 8.0 and nothing more.

It already does.

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lebatman:
MY REACTION:

1. Honestly, I'm not all that pissed, after getting Oreo which makes my phone slightly faster and battery efficient (more often than not).

2. However LG promised 2 years of updates, which means that it should receive updates that were released by Google two years from its launch, i.e. Android Pie October 2018.

3. For now, as they are choosing not to support it any more, LG should just release cam, DAC drivers and second screen sources so that custom ROMs can pick up their slack.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] cnjax:
No surprise, never expected the v20 would officially get Pie. It only took them almost two years to release oreo. LG's support of a flagship device is pathetic. After my V20 bites the dust, will move back to Sammy or a Pixel
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Excudent:
A bit of a shame TBH. Had a little bit of hope that we would get Pie, but now its official: We are done. Sad that LG didnt use at least "leak" some of the code used in the second screen framework, they wont be needing it any more and it could probably help with second screen on LOS 15. Might as well wait for a stable LOS16, love the developers that are working on the V20. I just hope this phone wont be killed by the lack of software support...

Is there any way to port the official camera to these custom ROMs ?

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Redline:
Can't speak for the camera side of things sorry. It's probably the least-used aspect of my phone (though I've since moved to a V30+).

As for signal strength, try updating your modem/firmware from the latest pre-20xx KDZ using KDZ Writer in its thread if you have an old version (or are still using the modem from the v10c-TWN KDZ for example, since that was the one to use to root the H990/DS).

Basically you download the latest KDZ for the Aus region , copy it to your SD Card on your phone and then run the commands on your PC via adb. Searching the thread should get you going in the right direction with things.

IIRC (all the commands are in the OP of the KDZWriter thread) you want -m to update the modem. You can't use 20xx+ (Oreo) version KDZs last I checked because it crashes things on Lineage.
