Hi, I am new to this forum. Sorry if this thread is not in the right place.

I own an O2 XDA Orbit 2 aka HTC Polaris and today evening it froze on me. I tried soft boot, restarting, getting the batt/sim, memory card out but it just wont get past the boot up screen.

Its got the windows mobile logo with a volume bar overlapping it. It just stays on that and I have no clue what I need to do to fix it. I am a bit stressed as it got all me emails and some personal pictures and data which I cannot access.

I have also connected it to my PC via USB bit it wont let me explore the device. I would really appreciate it if someone can advise me on how to go about fixing this problem.

Many thanks

Hi all,

The "Link Turbo" functionality has been announced before the device came out, but since then I can't find nothing about it, and I can't find any option in the phone's settings talking about it or allowing me to enable it or whatever...

Is the function gonna come in an update or did I miss something ?
[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] Hamza5682:
Could you explain what it is?

Sure, check this out :

It basically allows the phone to seamlessly combine Wi-Fi and 4G/LTE.
[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] Hamza5682:
From what I have heard and from my own experience, it seems to be automatic if you have both mobile data and WiFi switched on.
[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] miststudent2011:
AFAIK it's enabled by default.
[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] XDARoni:
Link turbo is a passive feature which means it does not get activated or deactivated. It is a software enabled feature that will most likely show up on other Honor phone via an update.

[MX Player] Ngiesberts:
Hi, I've been using mx player for a few months now, and I set English as the main preference for subtitles which usually works for all my videos.

But some videos only have the option between "full subtitles" or "signs & songs", so I always have to manually select full subtitles for every video in that folder. Which is a pain.

Isn't there a way to set "full subtitles" as standard for every video in general, or in a certain folder?

Ps. I'm using mx player on my android tv

Hello guys, my name is Ruben im from Peru

First of all, excuse my english, i will do my best to explain my problem

I bought this lg v30+ on ebay (LG-AS998) its unlocked and works great but i cant make calls.

I put my sim card in and i have full signal, 4G, and can enter internet, apps, play, watch youtube and everything works great but when i want to make a call i enter the dial, put a random number press call and the phone show this message "No Sim Card, or sim card error" . I also cant recieve calls. I have others phones and i test my sim card and it works perfect in others phones so im sure its a problem in this phone.

By the way, the phone has the AS99820b version. I also enter the hidden menu

*#546368#*998# - Service Menu - Test and The USIM card test is PASS

Does anyone has this same problem or knows how to repair it ?

Im thinking on buy the sim card reader on ebay and change it (not the trail, the whole reader) but i think maybe is not a hardware issue because i have full signal

I really appreciate it any info, thank you for your help!!
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Try flashing to US998 Oreo firmware. See

Frankenstein thread on how to do that

. One, on the remote possibility your phone is SIM card locked to previous carrier that will carrier unlock it.you will be able to have access to newer updates. Two, you will be able to have access to newer updates.

Also, check your APN in the mobile section of Settings. Should be the APN of your carrier and should be set as the default (green).
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] La-ardilla:
Hi Chazzmatt, thank you for your quick reply.

The apn is perfect, im using my carrier apn and i have full signal 4G, i can use chrome, youtube, whatsapp, everything just cant make calls, thats why i think the phone is not sim carrier locked, i wont be able to use data neither, am i right? And i can receive SMS also!! Its weird right?

I will do the Oreo flash when i back home :good:

I dit it but when i tried to flash OREO in upgrade mode this happen

I just flash Oreo with Partition DL and works great.

Now i can receive and make calls, thank you so much for your help!!!
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
You're welcome!

Yeah, you have to DL PARTITION when first moving to new variant firmware, like AS998 to US998. "Upgrade" can only be used when already in the firmware.

In the Frankenstein instructions, you normally DL PARTITION to US998 Nougat first, THEN then "upgrade" to US998 Oreo. But there's exceptions. H931 has to DL PARTITION at both US998 stages, Nougat and Oreo.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] isterios:
Hello,

Yesterday, doing noting special, I took my phone from my pocket and saw it was stucked on "fastboot".

Ok, no problem, I made a hard reset (power button 20s-30s): it reboots and immediately the screen fastboot appears.

I tried a fastboot reboot from my PC: idem: it reboots and immediately shows "Fastboot".

I tried vol UP + power button: a menu shows me just 2 options: wipe cache or reboot. I tried wipe cache: nothing better. I reboot in fastboot mode. It's weird because I had TWRP menu before (I rooted it a few months ago).

In summary, I cannot leave from the Fastboot screen. Whatever I do, I always come back to "fastboot" menu.

Could you help me please?

Flash MIUI fastboot ROM using MiFlash software..

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] czarsuperstar@gmail.com:
I had a similar problem like that and I thought all was hopeless and then I tried the simplest thing. Fastboot boot recovery instead of trying to flash it and then I flash the recovery through recovery to make sure everything was okay but it happened when using Orange ? recovery. I have not used it since. I hope this helps.

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] zhourj:
very strange. I just got a new Mix 2S, it's still on MIUI 9, then I unlocked it with official tool, after unlocking (waited 72 hours), the stock rom also updated to MIUI 10. but it's the stock chinese version not global version. And I downloaded this Global version onto the root of phone's memory, follow twrp's official guide, and in the recovery I can't see the zip file. and can't flash it. everything under /sdcard are random folder with long name of string of letters. It's nothing like other phones I've flashed with TWRP.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] M1chiel:
The random folder and file names indicate that TWRP did not manage to decrypt your phone. It is supposed to ask for your password when you enter recovery. A workaround is using adb from a pc and sideload the zip.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] hocuspocus69:
It happen also to me just retry to download and you see you don't download the ota 540mb but the full 1.7gb then you can upgrade..
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] zhourj:
yes it is the 1.7GB zip

---------- Post added at 09:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:44 PM ----------

Oh, I see. so how should I do that? I'm not familiar with the command line commands in fastboot.

I think I saw one post around here but didn't memorize it.

---------- Post added at 09:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:46 PM ----------

Thank you very much. And is it possible that I can let TWRP decrypt the phone somehow? when should it ask for password? it's still a fresh system, I didn't set any password yet. Or is there a universal one?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] M1chiel:
If you haven't set a PIN or password your data are not supposed to be encrypted, but maybe MIUI has a different approach. I suppose you use the latest twrp from the twrp.me site? Older unofficial versions cannot decrypt. Maybe you can set PIN and see what happens if you reboot in twrp?

A good instruction on how to use sideload is on the LineageOS site: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/polaris/install
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] zhourj:
Thank you very much.

I might try using Lineage actually. My nexus galaxy was on cyangen rom all the time.

this Mi phone is really difficult now. I tried to use MIUI's own flash tool with the global rom, but it didn't recognize the zip file. And after unzipping it, it didn't find any "flash all.bat". Is that really a problem for this rom?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] M1chiel:
You have to look for a flashable version. I downloaded one from here: http://en.miui.com/a-234.html. If I remember correctly you have to unzip it twice. Make sure you do not use the bat file that relocks your bootloader.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] zhourj:
i didn't know there are different version of the bat files there.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] zhourj:
I don't know why this unit can't be flashed with it. And also I want to use lineage OS rom, however that zip file can't be seen under TWRP recovery. still the same thing.

Even it's the latest version for this model, and I flashed the recovery onto the phone memory, it still can't work.

Have you encountered such problem before?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] dxdy:
not needed to unlock device to flash (upgrade with) official global ROM

download http://en.miui.com/download-343.html and just copy zip file to downloaded_rom folder and run update

Is PE camera2api enabled by default? Check with the developer? Maybe?

Let me ask you something else: Why did you end up on PE? I went through the RN5 forum before buying my phone, and even though PE looked fancy and awesome, HavocOS seemed to provide more customization.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] Hacksfallout:
Oh i see now why at havoc the whatsapp bug does not occur, i looked at their changelog, one line caught my eye.. its the "Force HAL1 package in some app", i think that may be the case, the devs of Havoc is aware of this bug i think, so whatsapp must be one of the app that being forced to use HAL1. (HAL3 is camera2api right?)

In order to make the front camera work and use a lag-free app

, you must use these settings presented on the attachments! (check OP post)

Or click here and check my shared Google Photos gallery.
​

Note:

I'm currently using the TWRP v1.035a patch

There's a new version called RN5 Camera Patch v2.034a that might fix the issues I'm going to talk about next, but I didn't test it yet (please, you can provide feedback here if you will), so bear with me.

Known Issues (So far):

If you zoom (use the digital zoom prior to the shot), it'll FC the app and a low resolution (probably the image in the buffer) will be saved in your gallery.

Occurred to me once, but you might get an black picture every now and never.

While recording something the "viewfinder" might show a worst image than the one which is actually being recorded.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods] SpiderPack:
I see... By the way you're talking, seems like you are using some variation of the LineageOS, right? If I can recall there's a better permissions management in that flavour of ROM.

In my case, I'm using HavocOS (Pixel ROM, AOSP) and if I try to find the same settings menu, I verify that magisk has the permission to start on boot.
