[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Domin_PL:
Hey,

I've just bought a broken Nexus 5X from "master"of CS.

Now what's the problem. Master has installed Lingeage OS, TWRP and for the safety (?) reasons has locked bootloader. The best of all is that I can boot the phone, but it freezes after couple of seconds. I wonder how can I unlock a bootloader if it has TWRP installed. As we know unlocking bootloader requires stock recovery to finish its job, but I don't have the one installed. I thought about adb sideload, but twrp also crashes after few seconds so I can't use it. Download mode to use LGUP - crashes after few seconds. Fastboot mode - probably gets stuck and can't navigate after few minutes, but device doesn't restart itself. I'm not sure if it works if not then.

What would you do if you were me? For the last I can resolder CPU but that could especially destroy mainboard if I soldered it wrong.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] BenParz:
So, there are some custom kernels available for the Poco and I just want to ask the community which of them are you using and why?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] santiagoruel13:
Franco kernel.. ever since its 1st release up.to thw latest r17 release.. simply smooth.. fluid for gaming..no hangs or lags or hiccups what so ever.. even though it doesnt give you a high antutu score. Only about 275-280k.. this kernel is stable. And battery friendly without hogging too much battery
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Daenjel:
Derp Kernel, simply, clean, great battery life and overall feels really smooth I can tell.

I'm coming from FrancoKernel too, and I was getting worse battery life, besides, when I flashed Derp Kernel I felt the device smoother than before with FK, maybe this is a placebo effect, maybe, everyone should give it a try.

Derp or sphinx???
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Skinpipe:

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] adlakhashiva:
I actually don't flashed any kernel but With my current daily driver Nitrogen OS I got NitroKernel + which gives me actually better battery than Stock kernel when using thermal mode in Nitrogen os settings that help me greatly. I will say try this nitrogen rom with its own kernel and I'll say you'll never need to look for any othe kernel.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] bucenk:
+1 for Nitrogen and Nitro Kernel. Stable rom, great kernel. I used sphinx before, also stable and great battery life. But after last update, I'm too lazy to flash another kernel.

I am looking to upgrade a Galaxy tab 3 sm-t210 to at least 4.4.4

I have found a custom 4.4.2 rom image I can flash onto a galaxy tab 3 sm-t210 using heimdall ( linux pc) to root it. But have been unable to locate any other custom roms that are higher. Are there any out there, other threads seem to suggest that as Samsung did not make an official later release for this device, it would be hard to create any custom roms.

Thanks in advance for any advice/assistance given.
[General Questions and Answers] Ibuprophen:
I don't have this device myself but, in order for you to flash a Custom Firmware, you will need to install a Custom Recovery first (there's no need to unlock bootloader for this device either).

Depending on the Custom Recovery you would like, the following threads are where you can obtain them as well as questions regarding Support and Guidance. Also be sure to read the OP and search the threads instructions and guidance for installing them.

You can check the following Index Thread for a list of Custom Firmware that's specific to your device too.

[General Questions and Answers] lwg_houghton:
Thank you for you help. but I am still a bit confused.

If I understand this correctly, installing this Custom Recovery will allow me to then install a Custom firmware to upgrade my sm-T210 to a higher version of Andriod. But I am unable to locate any sm-t210 specific Custom Firmware with a higher Android level then 4.4.2 . I am presuming the Custom firmware must be built specifically for the sm-t210 device?
[General Questions and Answers] Ibuprophen:
I don't believe so...

From what I had read, there's other options like those that can be Ported from other variants to yours and modified TW Firmware.

You will have to do your research to locate one that's suitable for you.

After unsuccsessful attemps i decided to go back and rebrand to C185 again so i installed TWRP and applied the rebrand. After the phone rebooted i try to reinstall TWRP but in fastboot mode the phone display PHONE locked and FRP Lock so i cannot install custom recovery. Also in developer options "OEM unlocking" its grayed so im stucked.

What are my options ? I tried the dload folder method copying update.app from MHA-L09C185B383 but it hangs on 5% when trying to install. I think i can rebrand AL00 to anything but must be on nougat and i dont know how to rollback from Oreo and dont want to brick my phone.

[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] Saloei:
If you're referring to DPI, it's located in Settings\More Settings\Developer options look for Drawing and Minimum Width within Drawing section. You enter your numbers in there. Just remember the phone screen DPI is 388. Never experimented with it but give it a try and let us know. Don't know if the screen with default to an acceptable number if you go overboard with your numbers.
[Vivo Nex Questions & Answers] xwonic:
Thanks. thats exactly what i wanted. My default was 360 on Nex S global and i went to 403 and everything seems to be working. The stock camera beauty icon position is abit off but everything is working. No app crashes.

[Amazfit] Nitter78:
Hi all,

Let me try to explain something very strange is happening with my Amazfit Stratos and iPhone X. I have the Stratos since one year ago and I didn't have any problem until today.

I restored the watch to factory reset and after that I can't pair the watch with the Amazfit Watch application. It shows the message below all the time:

I made several factory reset, I tried in two different iPhones, I flash several ROMs... and all the time it shows the same message.

Another point is that the watch is connected to the iPhone as I can see calls, notifications... but the watch is not paired so I can't sync activities, sleep....

The only thing that worked for me is using an android device to pair the watch.

Does anyone know if it could be an Amazfit's issue? Which could be the problem?

It sounds strange, it is really, really strange

thank you in advance
[Amazfit] panais86:
delete bluetooth device

Hello.

You can try delete the Amazfit device from bluetooth section and try to pair again. This worked for me
[Amazfit] Nitter78:
I have deleted the device many times and it didn’t worked.
[Amazfit] lfom:
You didn't unpair the watch properly, that's why you cannot pair again. You must factory reset it again, logout from current Amazfit app, make sure it's not listed in the BT settings of the phone, and pair it with another account (using another phone is better), then properly unpair from that phone (watch will factory reset again) login to Amazfit on your phone and finally pair the watch.
[Amazfit] Nitter78:
As described in my first message I even restore my iPhone and it didn't work. However I will try what you say . Thank you so much

Edit: Which is the sense of pairing the watch in another phone and with another account? Thanks
[Amazfit] Nitter78:
It didn't worked.... I don't know whatto do. I tried in a Samsung Galaxy and Xiaomi MI4 and it worked, but it doesn't work in my iPhone X. I used the same account in the three devices and it worked in Samsung and Xiaomi

The problem is between iPhone and the watch
[Amazfit] lfom:
I see, so you have a problem with Amazfit and you phone... If you are sure you have the latest version from App Store and re-installing the app didn't help, the try this (I call it "remote pairing", it looks weird but it worked every time I tried or told other people to do it):
[Amazfit] Nitter78:
Here I am again.

Same problem after resetting my watch. I would like to say that my Stratos is Chinese model. I have just reset my iPhone X to the last iOS. I have logged with a different account in a Xiaomi MI4 with no problem, but I don’t know what to do now for pairing my watch to the iPhone because the solutions proposed above didn’t work last night. I remember I had to change region to China in order to log with my Xiaomi account but doesn’t work either. I never faced this problems before.

I could solved the problem last time after tryung tens options and I can't remember which one worked :(

Any suggestion will be highly appreciated
[Amazfit] Nitter78:
When I try this solution iPhone requests to unpair the watch first from my previous Android phone...

Edit1

It seems the watch is connected but I can't pair

http://es.tinypic.com/r/t7e6ht/9

Edit2

I paired with three different Android phones and everytihg went well. But after unpairing and trying to pair with iPhone I get the same problem.
[Amazfit] lfom:
You didn't follow the instructions correctly, if you did:

1. Watch would not be listed in phone's BT settings;

2. Watch would not show the QR screen.
[Amazfit] lizard-borys:
Ios iphone pair

You didnt unpair Stratos from Amazfit properly

Flash Stratos with oposite firmware to which You have now - if You have stable CN flash global US, if You have global US flash stable CN.

data partition is encrypted

Hi , I've been trying a lot of methods to get my data back from my .backup files. All with no results. Your bckp2raw script seems to be one of the most successfull , but it ends by a " data partition is encrypted" ... Do you think I can still recover my files ... The original phone is actually working but it has been factory wiped ...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] alecxs:
that message just means that your current /data partition is encrypted (message for encrypted backup is different)

- do a backup of metadata partition (just in case)

- do a backup of /sdcard to PC (adb/mtp)

- format userdata partition

- reboot TWRP

- check userdata partition is unencrypted

- restore userdata*.backup from zip

- restore metadata partition from backup

- restore /sdcard backup

the restoring process will deny if userdata is not empty. please note if backup is encrypted it is most likely useless without corresponding backup of metadata partition
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Yrgffpv:
Thank you very much for your quick reply. Ok so I tried it , the restoring part worked , but when I rebooted it asked me for my code and said "password is correct but data is corrupted" ....

Do you have any idea for me to get my data back .... at least my pictures ...?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] alecxs:
sounds like the backup is encrypted, can you confirm? more important is this the source phone of this backup? or do you try to restore on other device?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Yrgffpv:
I'm pretty sure it is encrypted. Yes the phone is the source phone of the backups
[Miscellaneous Android Development] alecxs:
encryption should work in theory, but you need a copy of metadata partition from the day you created backup. you most likely don't have it, therefore your data is lost forever :(
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Yrgffpv:
Yes I don't have the metadatas from that day, is there a chance that they have been backup with the android backup ?

Thanks for your help anyways, I'm sad
[Miscellaneous Android Development] alecxs:
no, nothing you can do. even a old metadata from the first day when you buyed this device would probably do it. metadata partition is formatted on factory reset.

for some devices the crypto footer is not located at separate partition, but at the end of userdata partition instead. But this is not the case for your device, otherwise this zip would have restored. you can double check, search with hex editor in last -16384 bytes of last file for string aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 (or aes-xts)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Yrgffpv:
Cannot find anything like this but i'm not used to HEX reading .... Is there a chance that the metadata is on the SD card i was using for (external) storage on the phone (not the ones for the backups) ?
