[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Questions & Answers] nri_tech1183:
The photos are awesome!

Can you share the exact camera settings used & whether you used the usual point and shoot mode or used pro mode?

If so the iso and shutter etc settings to get such perfect shots?

Also, were these captured on 48mp mode or default mode.?

Some issues:

My phone is just a week old while I have no issues with anything, whats bothering me is rear/main camera capturing daylight images with a yellow tint.

If I shoot anything indoors using an artificial light like cfl or led bulbs the shots come perfect and real in colors or textures and lighting.

Also, again the Red color seems isnt captured to the perfection. It is either captured as pink or orange.

I hope these are software issues or if the camera lens parses the light more in yellow.

Any expert to comment on this.

There is a Torch in Quick settings - you can toggle that on and off- is that what are you referring to? If you need an actual "Widget" - I don't believe there is a WIDGET for torch that comes with Galaxy PHones but you can certainly find one on Play Store. ???

Thanks it worked but i didn't appended 4k block to patched_boot.img it worked without appending 4k block.
[Xiaomi Redmi 5A Guides, News, & Discussion] saurabh6377:
Let me verify this, I will update the guide once this is verified.
[Xiaomi Redmi 5A Guides, News, & Discussion] saurabh6377:
If you didn't append 4k block to patched_boot.img and you have locked bootloader then flashing magisk directly from twrp must work also because both processes are same. And likewise you can also flash custom kernel directly using twrp without extracting boot.img. In my case I have to append 4k block to patched_boot.img for system to boot.
[Xiaomi Redmi 5A Guides, News, & Discussion] isonupandit11:
I don't know how it worked but when i tried it again system crashed then i appended 4k block to patched_boot.img to get magisk intalled.

I have one more question what about xposed for pixel experience rom for riva and can i flash it directly without modifying it.

Edit:I am on pixel experience latest android pie version.
[Xiaomi Redmi 5A Guides, News, & Discussion] saurabh6377:
Yes you can install xposed. Simple rule of thumb is that you can flash anything that does not touch boot image and xposed doesn't it only writes to /system partition so no issues.

Xposed is not available for pie yet, but the unofficial EdXposed magisk module was tested by me and it works good on pixel experience.

If this is like an LG Bump situation you should just make a Pull Request to Magisk to add detection of the magic and to re-add it after automatically. I'll see about adding support for it to my Android Image Kitchen as well.

Edit: Also [MENTION=8273918]saurabh6377[/MENTION] isn't using AK3 correctly.. he left in all the stuff from the example and edited the Backend to add the printf (which it clearly says not to do) instead of putting it in anykernel.sh. :(
[Xiaomi Redmi 5A Guides, News, & Discussion] alecxs:
not necessary there is official unlock tool from xiaomi
[Xiaomi Redmi 5A Guides, News, & Discussion] elemefaaoo:
This is for those who weren't successful unlocking via official method.
[Xiaomi Redmi 5A Guides, News, & Discussion] saurabh6377:
Yeah, that is why I said experimental, I have my exams coming and I am just starting to learn all the stuff. It takes a lot of time figuring out everything (for beginner).

That is why I modified anykernel methods of flashing boot image.

EDIT: After my exams will be over, I will try to make another version of appender using anykernel correctly.:)

[MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION] Also, the bytes must be appended to final boot.img before flashing, but ak3 builds and flashes boot image in same method (write_boot), so I have to modify that method. Correct me if I am wrong.

Not really needed, people can just unlock, it is for those who are using bypass bootloader exploit because they cannot unlock (most likely in case if someone have bought from untrusted source). And append doesn't work always.
[Xiaomi Redmi 5A Guides, News, & Discussion] osm0sis:
Cool. I just worry what that stuff intended for tuna (Galaxy Nexus) could do. If you don't need to touch the ramdisk you could just use split_boot; so it doesn't unpack the ramdisk unnecessarily.

You can use repack_ramdisk; (if unpacked) and flash_boot; instead of write_boot; to get more granular control and be able to act on the final image before flash. :good:

Good luck with your exams! :fingers-crossed:
[Xiaomi Redmi 5A Guides, News, & Discussion] saurabh6377:
[MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION] thanks, I will make another version of appender soon.

I have one question though

I want to edit /vendor/etc/fstab.qcom to enable forceencrypt using anykernel

In fstab.qcom I have this

/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/userdata /data ext4 rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,noauto_da_alloc wait,formattable,check,encryptable=footer,quota

I want to change "encryptable" to "forceencrypt" using anykernel.

What is proper way?
[Xiaomi Redmi 5A Guides, News, & Discussion] osm0sis:
Well that's not necessarily an AnyKernel "thing" because it's a vendor partition modification, but yeah you could do that somewhere in anykernel.sh as part of a flash if you want, just remember to mount vendor rw first and back to ro after. The AK3 patch_fstab function might work for you.

[General Questions and Answers] Apo11on:
Does anyone know the difference between these 2? The specs look identical

https://www.sandisk.com/home/memory-cards/microsd-cards/extremepro-microsd

VS

https://www.sandisk.com/home/memory-cards/microsd-cards/extremeplus-microsd
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
The "plus" version is probably intended for the average user and has a moderate level of quality and durability. The "pro" version is probably intended for professionals and users that would need a better quality and more durable product.

In other words, they have equal specs and both are good quality but one is made a bit better than the other.
[General Questions and Answers] Apo11on:
I'm not sure what "better quality" means in this context. Durability is a measurable specification, and each card type has Max supported reads/writes, per sdcard association specifications. Both are C10, U3, A2 and V30 and according to that, have same durability, in terms of Max reads/writes... Not sold on your response, I think there is either no difference and it was just a marketing decision, or it's something else.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
A little of both, it's like laptops, some are marketed at the consumer level at a certain price point and others are marketed at the business/professional level at a higher price point, overall difference between the two marketing levels isn't that much but it's enough to make it worthwhile to the professional at a higher price point, for whatever reason.

Pro has read/write speed of 95MB/s

Plus has read/write speed of 90MB/s

But none of this matters for use as storage in android devices, these differences only matter when it comes to photography and in use in cameras. All you need to worry with for android is for it to be a class 10 card.
[General Questions and Answers] Apo11on:
The speeds you provided are inaccurate, and do not match the speeds listed on SanDisk product pages I provided in the OP. The read/write speeds, listed by SanDisk for both cards are identical, otherwise we wouldn't be having this conversation. I only asked because I coudn't find any difference in any of the specs. If it was 95Mbps vs 90Mbps - my question would have been redundant.

https://boards.cruisecritic.com/top...ard-vs-sandisk-extreme-plus-which-one-to-buy/

As you can see, there is more than enough information that disagrees with you.
[General Questions and Answers] Apo11on:
The links you provided unmistakably indicate you don't even understand what we're talking about:

First, all links you provided are about sdcards, and my question in the OP and the product links I posted in the OP are for MICRO sdcards. Those are 2 very different form factors. They use very different manufacturing process and sd vs microsd *always* had different speeds, even when plus/pro/extreme etc. naming convention was the same.

Second, your links are not only for the wrong form factor products, but they are also for very different, tiny capacity cards. I specifically linked and asked about the new 1TB sizes, and you are linking to 32GB, 64GB small capacity, old cards in different form factor. It is well known card's storage capacity affects it's top speeds and it can be clearly seen on SanDisk's site, if you check specifications for the "same" card in different sizes

Third, and most importantly - what I said about specs of the cards I'm asking about cannot be "disagreed with", because I didnt provide an opinion, or any kind of speculation for specifications - I provided a direct link to the manufacturer's own website and manufacturer's own specifications of the products *they* created. Therefore, those specs are a hard fact, like gravity - not something you can disagree with by providing links to some random online resellers or some forums, that might be selling or discussing the product. Manufacturer provided information about their own products superseeds/overwrites any 3rd party information, and all your links are for very different products anyway.

Some people just dont know when to quit, and argue for the sake of arguing...
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
The links that I gave were to demonstrate that there is a difference between the Pro and Plus versions, regardless of form factor or size.

When comparing a Pro with "this" form factor and "that" many GB to a Plus with the same form factor and same GB, there is a difference, that is the point. Your nitpicking doesn't change that.
[General Questions and Answers] Apo11on:
In post #5 I called you out for listing the wrong speeds for the products I asked about, which do not match manufacturer specifications. In post #6 you quoted that call-out, said "As you can see, there is more than enough information that disagrees with you." and linked some websites which provide the same wrong speeds i called you out on. Therefore, no - you didn't give those links to "demonstrate that there is a difference between the Pro and Plus versions, regardless of form factor or size." - the context of the conversation unequivocally indicates you gave them to disproof my statement you provided wrong speeds for the products I'm asking about. The purpose of your post #5 was very different from what you now claim, and anyone with a common sense, who would read this thread will be able to see that.

I guess you're entitled to an opinion and can call pointing out that you provided links to wrong product, in different form factor, different capacity and designated 3rd party links as "evidence, which disproves manufacturer's own specifications" to be "nitpicking", but I don't think too many people would agree with you on that one.

And no - the links you provided for very different products that also happen to have "pro" and "plus" in their names do not prove there is speeds or specs difference between products I'm asking about, because the official manufacturer provided specifications for the products I'm asking directly contradict that and list identical specs, including read/write speeds.
[General Questions and Answers] Apo11on:
Update: Spoke to SanDisk support directly - they confirmed the specs are identical, and Pro vs Plus branding is just a marketing decision/trick.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Finally, a proper answer.
[General Questions and Answers] Apo11on:
Finally got that 1TB Extreme PLUS card. If you're expecting the advertised 170Mbps read speeds - don't hold your breath. I've gotten 85Mbps read, 80Mbps write best case, and Google research says SanDisk even admits that 170Mbps read speed can only be achieved using their Mobilemate USB to sdcard adapter, which uses SanDisk proprietary hardware and transfer technology.

After upgrading to android 9.0, Google services stopped working.

Maybe there are some ways to circumvent this ban?

Thanks !
[General Questions and Answers] ozvandroid:
Hi every one,

As many of you i suffered with my phone updating to EMUI 9, i tried a lot, searched a lot and finnaly found out the solution:

Step 1

You need to downgrade your phone to any version previous to 9.1.0.201, i used 9.1.0.189. They way to do it was usign FirmwareFinder and DNS update to force the installation of that version.

Step 2

One the phone booted, download the security patch update, anfter that phone finds 9.1.0.201, update

Step 3

I read in a chinesse forum that the LZPLAY method only works in this firmware, but its half true. in this version do the lzplay method (using hisuite restore ) .

After you install all the apks, and the lzPlay app gets device administrator permissions, reboot. At this point the phone is already runing EMUI 9 and google services and apps working, but the phone still finds a newer update 9.1.216, in that version you can not directly use the lzplay method as it fails with a "device not compatible" message in chinesse

Step 4

One you validated all google apps work and you have logged in with your google account, its safe to accept the last firmware update, at the end you will have the latest build and google apps working.

I have a serious problem with Bluetooth audio.

I have really good headphones, but they are quite old and there's no support for ldac or aptx (just sbc). However I'm coming from Huawei P20 Pro and I never had any problem with audio quality on that phone.

And what exactly I mean? When I'm listening the music I can hear occasional drops of audio bitrate. It's extremely annoying. And no, I'm not using different Bluetooth devices (but I was able to do this with Huawei which had older Bluetooth version [!]), everything about multiple output is disabled, that option in developer's menu is set to 1.6. I'm out of ideas and pretty disappointed that premium device like Note 9 have problems with basic functions like this.

Ps. It's not a problem with my device. Same thing is happening on my friend's Note 9.
