[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Saswata Chakraborty:
1. Yes. After binding the device with your mi account and apply for the bootloader unlock using the MiFlash tool, you need to wait for 72 hours. It will reflect on MiUnlock tool as well.

2. Just download the latest TWRP from here and flash it (Link: https://xdaforums.com/poco-f1/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-3-decryption-t3853004) and no need to flash DFE (Disable ForceEncryption). Don't worry about it being unofficial. Even though it's unofficial, it is the best solution for us as of now.

A piece of advice: Never use a decrypted device if you are concerned about the security of your device. Infact, never flash anything suggested by anyone without cross checking the authenticity of the file. You will come across many users suggesting you to flash this and that when the fact is,they are afraid to try on their own and rather want you to be the guinea pig.

3. When a new update comes in, you will get notified automatically. Or there is an option on settings to check for new updates. Just download the update and dirty flash it on TWRP (Dirty flash is flashing without wiping any other partition except /Cache and /Dalvik). However, sometimes when a ROM gets some major changes, you should clean flash it in order to avoid any possible issue. But if it is required, it will be mentioned by the developer (which means you need to be active on XDA to see the developer's note).

4. Netflix doesn't show up only if the Play store (and the device in terms) is "Uncertified", however on PE, play store is already certified as it is using the fingerprint of Pixel 3 in order to pass safetynet. So, don't worry about it. If you still can't see certain apps on Play store after flashing PE, just download them from apkmirror and sideload them. APKmirror is a legit place and doesn't support pirated/cracked or malware apps.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] lixoman100:
Thank you for all the detailed information. One last question, I've heard of problems of Pocophone not supporting Widevine L3 which caused Netflix (and others) to stream at a lower quality, and I've read somewhere that Xiaomi might be trying to get that problem fixed. Would this problem affect Pixel Experience if I had it installed on the Pocophone? If so, and Xiaomi fixed the issue in an update, would I be able to get the fix without reverting back to the stock rom?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Saswata Chakraborty:
To be honest, I still don't believe when Xiaomi says they will make Poco widevine L3 supported. If they do something like this, it will be amazing. But till then, I won't believe them. And 540p is not that bad anyway. If the device had an AMOLED display, you would realize that 540p is actually quite good which doesn't consume lot of data and still gives a pleasurable viewing experience. And if Xiaomi manages to rollout supoort for WV L3, all other custom ROMs need yo depend on Xiaomi if they release the source code. Just like Xiaomi didn't release the source code of their face unlock feature. Hence, custom roms are using Google face unlock which is a disaster.

[Huawei Watch] Colorado CJ:
I just bought a used Black Stainless Huawei Watch. It is in great condition, but I have one problem, the band is too small.

I was wondering if anyone had any spare links for the black stainless band? I know I can order a different band, but I like the looks of the black stainless one.

I'd be happy to pay for the links plus shipping for anyone that might have a spare or two.

This is my first smart watch, and I can tell I'm going to like it. It should go well with my Huawei Mate 9

Thanks.
[Huawei Watch] krs360:
It would be cheaper, quicker, and easier to just buy a new black stainless steel band - there's loads on Amazon for about £10.

If you're using a Huawei phone, whitelist the Wear app from Huawei's ridiculous RAM management. And don't use the Huawei Health app - it's a crippling data hog.

For example the MY16ADA in most Honda products running Android 4.2.2? As a lot of users hack the box (Honda Hack) it would be a neat project but beyond my abilities. As Mirrorlink (host) is open source I was just curious. It allows phone mirroring and some cool functions that are locked out of Android Auto. Just wondering if any of the Devs had thought about this project. If this is the wrong venue/forum/group for this please accept my apologies.

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] i killed tupac:
So I thought I was going nuts, but indeed, somehow. I am getting edge-lighting effect notifications on the Always On Display. It looks cool, but I have no idea how to set it, or what exactly is even triggering it! I think it is emails, but I use a third party mail app anyways.

Anyone else getting this?

it's just this setting
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] i killed tupac:

Is this setting point related to regions? My region is germany and i do not have the option to set this effect:confused:

I'm as well get no notifications like whatsapp on the AOD, is this normal? (MIUI 10.0.11.0 Stabel)
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] pramod1969:
Edge lighting notifications on Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 has not been advertised or reviewed adequately. I also noticed it coming randomly on AOD during certain notifications.

Now, I am using the android app "Always On Edge" (AOE), which lets me customize it beautifully so I never miss a notification. There is a nice tutorial in the AOE for Xiaomi phones and one should read it to make changes in the settings before the app works properly.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] 954wrecker:
A link to the tutorial please?

I followed the xiaomi tips in the apps help section and it just won't work for me with everything set up correctly.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] pramod1969:
View attachment 4717782There is no web page link. I paid $2 for the app and not sure if it is needed for it to work properly.

I will type the changes I did to the settings after reading under AOE settings ( "settings" on AOE app; click on "not working" tab then scroll to Xiaomi ( I am assuming you did that);

First, modify in the phone settings;

1) type in the search bar "Permissions": Autostart: enable AOE.

2) type in the search bar "Installed Apps": AOE (always on edge): Battery saver-no restrictions.

3) Under Lock screen & password; click on notifications; choose "show animation".

4)

Power-off and restart the phone

.

Second, change AOE App settings;

1) Allow this app to run without restrictions under "app restriction"

2) Un-check "manually" under the tab "how to start"

3) Check "when a notification comes" screen always off/on.

I am using it without the ambient display in my phone, but it works either way.

[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] mockneygeeza:
This is just a thought, a lot of us got this phone asa it appeared. Waited 3 bejillion hours for unlock... And now we feel stuck, when we look at development on other Xiaomi devices we wonder why we are missing out!

Can anyone take a wild guess how many XDA members own a Max 3?

Could we not donate? Or set up a crowdfund type of thing to get development going?

I sold my oneplus in favour to keep this handset, as its still to me has so much potential.

Members what are your thoughts? I'm sure we could come up with enough to get some handsets shipped out for developers?

I'm wondering if any development on going on?

I'm beginning to look at OP6Ts again, I miss flashing.

Come on! Lets do something.

[Moto Z3 Play Questions & Answers] Lewerosky:
Hi, the other day I unlocked the bootloader of my Z3 Play, yesterday I got a notification for a new update, the January Security Patch or "OPWS28.70-56-8". I managed to get the update file looking for the URL in the logcat. When I downloaded this file I manually added ".zip" because it had no extension. And I followed all the steps in order to get this OTA using the stock Recovery.

I type "adb sideload ota.zip" and I get stuck because of an error, it suddenly stops in the first step at 47%, in the command prompt I get "Total xfer 1.01x" and on my device, on the Recovery menu it reads:

"Error applying update: 20 (ErrorCode::kDownloadStateInitializationError)

E: Error in /sideload/package.zip (Status 1)

E: Failed to open driver control: No such file or directory

Installation aborted"

I can use my Z3 without problems, is not bricked. But It would be nice if someone could tell me what I am doing wrong.

In any case, here it is the relevant info:

[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] S5Guy:
If you try to use the bootloader unlocker apk from Nokia and your Nokia 8 has an android version that's past a certain version, the apk will flat out fail with a "Device not support." error message. And chances are, your Nokia 8 will be at an incompatible android version. So to unlock the bootloader, you will need to downgrade your phone to a legitimate version of android 8.1.0 so the apk will not error out and get you a verification code. This guide will show you how. NOTE THAT THIS METHOD WILL ERASE ALL INTERNAL DATA ON YOUR PHONE.

-

This update zip is what you need for the TA-1004: https://android.googleapis.com/pack.../f9cb380bd9c2bf1b6ddebcab9dcf389843eb2d39.zip

It may be different for the TA-1012, but according to that earlier post, it does not seem to be the case. Nevertheless, just to be safe, here's the zip for the TA-1012: https://android.googleapis.com/pack.../139c94fd08f52fbd3b852ab4ef5c6515fffb784e.zip (I don't have a TA-1012 so I wasn't able to test this particular zip.)

So basically, to make sure there's no problems, make sure in the Developer's options on the phone that OEM unlocking is enabled, then put your SD card into the phone. Plug the phone into your computer. Copy the update zip that you need somewhere onto the SD card. Disconnect the USB cable. Shut down the phone. Then, while holding down the Volume Up button, reconnect the USB cable. You should see a sad android with "No command" displayed. Now release the Volume Up button. Then hold down the power button and then JUST PRESS once on the Volume Up button. You should be at a recovery menu. Using the volume keys, scroll down to the 'Apply update on SD card' option and select it. Select the zip that you copied over to the SD card earlier and then let it install for a while. It will probably pop up with a 'timestamp too old' error, but just ignore this. The update will install anyway. Then once it's done, do a factory reset on the phone and then shut down. MAKE SURE THERE'S NO SIM CARD IN THE PHONE.

Now that's out of the way, boot the phone up again and just click through the first-time setup screens but DO NOT ENABLE WI-FI or any kind of internet connection. We don't want the phone to update itself back to Android 9. Now plug the phone in again. Copy the bootloaderunlocker apk from Nokia's website onto the phone. Install it. Put in the email address you want the unlock key emailed to. Then voila! You'll get the verification code. Put it into the form on Nokia's website and you'll be emailed an unlock.key file. From there, the site will tell you how to proceed.

A HUGE thanks to: THMSP and frankoid

They did all the work. <3
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] foxbatul:
why another topic ?!
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] S5Guy:
Because I don't expect people to dig around in all the Nokia 8 Guide threads to find the exact and, to my knowledge, only way to unlock the bootloader. Furthermore, I found this solution in a sort of unrelated thread, which would make the solution even harder to find for the average user.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] foxbatul:
I understant but not.

Here it's not the place for lazy ones. Or for apple boys.

Unlock, modding, ROMs are for people with other approach. So this kind of topics make more noise instead to help.

Just my 2 cents.

BTW - thank you posting "downgrade to oreo" procedure.

it s the offline one ( my choice was to use "register to beta" and" unregister").

no need SD card or something, just a good wifi connection and patience.

Thank you for posting this guide, it got me to unlocking the bootloader on my TA-1004 after I received the described "Device not support" error.

I enabled "OEM unlocking" before downgrading my firmware and the option was grayed out for me afterwards. However the bootloader unlock still worked correctly other than being forced to us a Mac as none of my windows machines would show the device in fastboot mode.
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MDV106:
If only Nokia 8 had support for custom roms. Im stuck on the december security patch of Pie because it has a prerooted boot img posted somewhere on this forum. Ot would be fun to play around with a google-free custom rom like lineageOS. But sadly devs dont seem to give a damn about the phone :(
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ma401:
I think we can thank HMD for that by making unlocking the bootloader so difficult. I only ended up buying the Nokia 8 because I got it for such a good deal ($220 CAD) and needed a temporary phone to tide me over until I can get something better. I feel sorry for anyone who paid full price for this phone and I don't blame developers for moving to something more accessible.

I mean it detects when the phone is in nornal mode but when mobile is booted into fastboot mode it doesn't detect
[Nokia 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] sumitinhome:
Yes i understood, make sure you are using latest adb drivers.

More on it. Make sure you have USB debugging on from Developers options. Also make sure oem unlocking option is on.

1 - Connect your phone to pc while powered on.

2 - From adb folder open command prompt and type adb devices (If your device is detected in adb mode while powered on)

2.1 - if not detected in adb devices.. then go to developer settings and revoke USB debugging authorizations. then again repeat the above process in point no. 2.

3 - if detected now then type adb reboot bootloader, let it reboot in download mode.

4. then type 'fastboot flash unlock [your unlock key]' if this doesnt work then try 'fastboot -i 0x2e04 flash unlock [unlock key]'

5. after that either 'fastboot oem unlock' or 'fastboot -i 0x2e04 oem unlock'

See if this works.
