It is Impossible till to date, I've tried it, but for me Locked bootloader is OK, because there are all updates available on Android One devices. I am happy with the performance of Nokia 5.1 Plus converted from X5, If company have no policy to unlock bootloader we can't blame them..

How many custom ROMs available for Nokia X5 or 5.1 Plus? :laugh:
[Nokia X5 (Nokia 5.1 Plus) Guides, News, Discussion] Rustdroid:
There aren't any because bootloader is locked. You know that so why ask ? We can blame Nokia if we want but I don't really care any more. I've got other devices I can have custom roms on. Yes the Android one is good but I would still like to be able to have root.

[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GreyGold:
I have several drive mappings to my PC on my 2017 Shield that I would like to edit or remove. I established them during my learning curve, so several are redundant or unneeded. When viewing them in ES File Explorer or File Manager HD, they are all named, "SD Card". I can find no way to rename them, edit their targets, or remove them. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling ES File Explorer, but the mappings persist, indicating that the settings are retained within Android rather than the application. Is there any way to manage these mappings other than doing a total factory reset?
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zinko_pt:
I guess you can manage them in the PC. The logic (to my limited knowledge) seems to be you mount network shared folders in the Shield's settings. That's why when the network drives don't mount in the Shield's system, they won't show up in any other app.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GreyGold:
Accessing the Shield from a PC allows fiddling with its internal storage, but there is no visibility into the mapped shares nor into the mounted network shares. I need to manage (rename, delete, edit the path, etc.) of those mapped shares.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Odd man:
Chrome in my phone is just bad, scrolling is just unresponsive, stuttering. My old phone with a Snapdragon 820 could outperform this with webpages. Go to apple.com and try to scroll. The Mi browser don't have this issue. This is just bad optimisation for Chrome and the stock rom. On the stable Global Rom, Miui 10.2.3 stable
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Martensite:
How about changing system webview to chrome?

It feels better for me.

Chrome is pretty bad on all phones cause most sites are bloated with ads.

I prefer using Firefox with *ublock origin* and *I don't care about cookies* addons. With this setup it's pretty much smooth experience.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] rajeev26680@gmail.com:
Not a poco issue..it's chrome and Google that actively encourage page owners to put ads everywhere. Even one plus 6t stutters with chrome.

Just tried visiting apple.com (who does that) but the scrolling is butter smooth on chrome on my F1 (10.2)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Saswata Chakraborty:
There are two reasons why Chrome stutters on Android.

1. The app is poorly optimized.

2. The notorious ads keep loading/changing on the webpages and make the webpages stutter while scrolling. You can clearly see the difference when using an adblocker.

---------- Post added at 08:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:19 PM ----------

Lol, if the problem was on Poco only, then everything on Poco should stutter. But no other browsers stutter on Poco (e.g. Firefox, Edge, Kiwi, Brave etc). Moreover, all my previous devices (Mi A1, Nokia 7 plus, Asus Zenfone 5z) had this issue. So, how come the issue is related yo Poco?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] ClementNerma:
I recently figured out there was a huge latency when touching the screen in its left and right edges, but not on the center (top or bottom does not matter). This happens for every application, I'm on MIUI 10 Global Stable.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Odd man:
Kinda disappointed by Android. iPhones with similar performance don't have this issue while scrolling. Google need to fix this with the next Android version. Even the S10 still have stuttering problems
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Prankey:
Hahahaha! Trolls, none of my recent devices have such horrific stuttering issues like Poco F1! Its a sham that benchmarking is top notch but the entire UI stutter like HELL! I had to immediately return the unit despite getting awesome battery life. No tweak could fix it and in comparison even a OnePlus 3T or LG V40 are buttery smooth and snappy! So stop trying to project yourself as a guru dude as am on Android since Galaxy S1 and after project "Butter" haven't seen any smartphone stutter like Poco did! Even Mi4i don't stutter!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Saswata Chakraborty:
Probably a simple google search can clear your doubt. It's not only Poco users who report stuttering issue, there are multiple OnePlus, Asus, Nokia, Motorola, Xiaomi threads (on their respective community) where people reported the exact same issue. So, stop trying to defame a particular device.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] martinbl:
Here we go:

When I recharged my HTC in my car, I got in a little accident and the HTC flew around the car a little bit.

Long story short; the USB/Charge port broke and I got it fixed by a friend.

Took him a few days because it was totally messed up, but hey, I could recharge it.

He said he couldn't fix the USB connection, but no problem: I still had bluetooth.

However, yesterday I got really stupid...

I tried to flash the rom using my bluetooth connection.

All went fine, but ofcourse, when rebooting it got stuck.

Tried the soft reset, tried the hard reset, but no luck.

Of course I also tried all available tools (mtty) but damn, stupid me again, that won't work since the USB connection won't work; my PC doesn't even detect that there is a device connected.

So here's my question:

Is there a way to get the HTC out of bootloader menu without the use of the USB port?

As I am afraid there isn't a way, does anyone have a layout/schematic of the HTC Universal hardware layout so I can try to fix the USB connection myself?

The friend that fixed it last time moved, so I'll have to try it myself :o.

My USB port broken also.

My USB port pulled out also. I did find my connector, even though I purchased a replacement USB off eBay. My eyes are not good enough to resolder, and am not sure what is on the other side of board that may be effected should I try. I just downloaded the PDF file ya'all listed, so now I will check it out in depth. I would prefer having a professional fix this, but here in Memphis Tn USA I have had better luck finding polar bears. I recently got this unit so I know nothing! I do realize that it probably needs to be upgraded from WM5 to WM6. I have also noticed that replacement mother boards are available also on eBay. I just purchased an used JasJar with good mother board but broken screen thinking about using it for parts to fix mine.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] ninjitsu:
Hey

My USB port broke off, and I lost it... I dropped the phone out of my motorcycle tankbag (since it opens on the "bottom" end) the impact was severe enough that the case fell appart and speakers popped out, all the wires intact, I put it back together but the port is lost... it still works of course but my battery ran out, can't charge it without the usb port.

Anyway, I see it's delicate but not that delicate, i want to solder a new one on myself what I have to do is find one and here is my question:

Which type/sort of ports work, do I need an htc-universal specific one or is it standard and just any of the correct size where contacts overlap, is good enough?

If the answer is standard I'll get'em at the nearest electronic store, if not, where to get'em? used off ebay or some useful links any of you may have handy?

Thanks in advance,

The connector you want is a "USB-to-go" or a "USB Mini-AB" SMT Scoket any good electronics component retailer should have them. The big question is have you damaged the pads on the motherboard?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] ninjitsu:
oi, thanks mates, I checked that retailer out, found a local retailer with these components, if it's a standard one, it should work, I'll try to see if it works before soldering (using some duct tape or something I guess).

I'm pretty sure I haven't damaged the pads on the motherboard, the thing just "gently" broke off (as gentle as you can imagine a break can be). How would damage look like? They look intact really... and it's a big enough patch that I feel confident soldering on.

I ordered one of these connectors and should be here tomorrow. Thanks again for info.

---

well apparently not... only A or B in stock, but not the -AB in all the local retailers, guess I'll grab it from the ebay one :) Thanks for that info too again.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] ninjitsu:
Now then, several months later, my usb socket broke off again.

I really lost trust in my universal, it feels just... touchy, like it's a human baby, that's how I act when I carry it around and don't like it. Since I don't want my mobile device to be such a "burden" really I'm thinking about replacing it.

I'm not an elec-technician, in fact I've soldered a few things in my life, but this one, I somehow did, I didn't have fine enough tools so some of the contacts got spilled and interconnected and I peeled off the links with a boxcutter knife later. It was a few-hour endeavour. Yeah crude and barbaric but in the end, I managed that without damaging the motherboard. It worked, active syncinc, everything, but I felt it wasn't really stable. Since I don't have an external battery charger, my uni is sadly out of order now.

I have a question:

How to solder this thing back on properly?

And when done so, how sturdy is it? Sturdy enough? :)

Thanks, regards
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] D.Apsley:
The USB connector is a pain to solder as you need a big tip to solder to the big pads that hold it in place and a small tip to solder the actual USB data pins. If it is done correctly it can out last the Uni. I can repair it for you if you like, it wont be the first and I'm sure it wont be the last. PM me if you are intrested.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] starik:
DONT try to resoldere it urself, u need skill and especially a proper LOW WATT soldering tool!! its also easy tofuck it up, permanently.

i'm not sure if u can find electronic guys willing to do this ( cause its a small job for them), but ur best bet would be to visit the local guy who does PS2/XBOX/GAMECUBE modchip iinstalls...he'll solder ur usb port in 2 minutes.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] D.Apsley:
Just to let you know I've been a electroinc engineer for 15+ years this sort of thing is my bread and butter. If you want to see the standard I work too check out the 128Mb Upgrade page thats my work and the kind of equipment I have.

But I agree with Starik do try it yourself unless your are skilled at soldering and have the right tools.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers] steve1221:
Really odd, the Max updated and now most apps have wifi connection issues?

The app will say something like 'can't connect to sever' for 3 or 4 times and then carry on. This is with most apps not just 1 or 2.

This wasn't happening at all before the update and it never happens with Youtube or using a browser..

Tried rebooting, reloading the apps, rebooting the rooter, ect. no change.

Can anyone suggest a fix??

[Shield Android TV General] ShyriVi:
I haven't posted enough to create a thread in dev forum nor putting links please if some moderator wants to move this to dev and fix the urls would be great.

I just wanted to share a project that I worked on during 2018. It allows to simulate touch events in Android TV with your gamepad (mainly for Nvidia Shield TV) and play touch based games without rooting the device. It actually needs a computer connected through ADB to work so this is another point why Shield TV is best to use because it allows ADB over wifi. You can configure several gamepad inputs that map to taps in some coordinates or 'virtual joysticks' with configurable center and radius in the screen.

It has been always open source but now I'm sharing because I don't plan to work on it anymore and I welcome anyone who wants continue the development. I wrote both user guide and developer guide on how to set it up.

github.com /Shyri/TouchMapper/wiki/User-Guide

github.com /Shyri/TouchMapper/wiki/Developer-Guide

Also I made a desktop app that would make a non-developer user easier to start the ADB process. You can find both repos here:

github.com /Shyri/TouchMapperLauncher
[Shield Android TV General] trohn_javolta:
:eek: ..that's exactly what I was searching for.... but the fact that you need a pc connected via adb all the time throws me off a bit.

So, I have 2 Questions:

My Shield is rooted using Magisk. Is there a way to use the app without the need of a pc connected via adb if it has root access? I mean could you come up with sth. like that?... probably not, since you don't plan on working on it anymore :'( . I'm no dev god, I cannot do it myself.

Second question: I got the ps4 remote play app to work on my Shield and I can stream ps4 to it. However I'm unable to connect any controller to it (all controllers that work just fine elsewhere won't work in the ps4 app). Also app has possibility to register a dualshock4 controller but that also does not work.

But the app has a touchbutton overlay! Do you think your app could work to send inputs?

Edit: Wait.....reading the mapping guide of yours, I wonder: Couldn't I do this somehow with Tasker app also?
[Shield Android TV General] ShyriVi:
Yeah having adb connected is kind of a bummer but it is very comfortable through wifi or ethernet.

If your device is rooted you should be able to use any app in Play Store with this purpose I think.

My app is running the code in a separated process ran by adb and receiving gamepad input from the app process. I guess a modification that runs that code from the app process if root is detected would make it work without needing adb.

I don't know about the Tasker app capabilities for this purpose.
[Shield Android TV General] trohn_javolta:
I can now confirm that with root it's possible by using Tasker + AutoInput Plugin.

However it's no working solution for the ps4 remote play app :( The overlay of the app disappears after some time and moving the mouse it appears again, also it's disturbing.

One can register a ps4 controller in the app, which for me does not work :( I guess once registered the overlay disappears.

One thing I didn't try yet is the sixaxis controller app.

The idea would be then to map the ps4 controller input to a connected xbox one controller.

That's the reason I'm doing this: I want to play on my ps4 with a xbox one controller. Via win pc this seems to be possible... but I feel like it's such a waste of power..

Also there are such usb dongles that enable to do this, I should have bought one from the getgo.... But now I'm just being stubborn, I wanna make this work :D

Edit: Oh, forgot one thing: Do you plan on also posting this in geforce forum and r/ShieldAndroidTV subreddit? I think it would be important to have it there as well.

If you allow, I can do that and redirect any questions to this thread here, if not that's also fine. Just a thought, maybe this way you'll find someone to take over the project.
[Shield Android TV General] ShyriVi:
Haha what you are trying to do is certainly waste of power, but I can understand the stubbornness to make it work, it happens to me all the time. This project is indeed the result of being stubborn and not wanting to root my shield.

In any case, what you are trying to do should be possible with my app and, as I said, I guess it wouldn't be too hard to make it work from rooted devices without having adb connected. For the moment I am very busy with other projects but I'll let you know if I can find some time to adapt it.

I'll post it to that reddit too, i already posted it to r/androidtvdev but didn't know about r/ShieldAndroidTV. Thanks!
[Shield Android TV General] banderos101:
Just to say, that tasker has an adb pluging that lets me send adb commands over tcp to the device its running on, lets me trully force close apps on a non root shield, maybe this combination of apps could do away with the pc requirement

Hello everyone,

I finally managed to fix the bt incall problem in gsi roms!

For everyone who doesn´t hear the callaudio over the bt-headset, but over the phone speaker, do the following:

1. You need root - you can root your phone by installing magisk.zip or su.zip via twrp or by istalling using this method

2. Install a rootexploerer (any filemanager with wich you can access your root folders)

3. Go to /system/bin/rw-system.sh and delete the following line:

mount -o bind /mnt/phh/empty_dir /vendor/etc/audio || true

and save the file.

4. Reboot and enjoy your fixed bt incall audio!

This works only in caf-based gsi´s such as Havoc, ResurrectionRemix, LineageOs, ArrowOs - For pure AOSP rom it will not work!
