[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] Chad_Petree:
I cannot expand the notifications on the Lockscreeny what's the point of having such a big screen if not to show more information at once? Is this a bug or just the way miui works? :/

It's already annoying having to tap on the arrow to expand the notifications while you're using the phone since Xiaomi got rid of the pinch to expand gesture.

Why would they mess with arguably Android's best feature, notifications! :/

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lister Of Smeg:
Hi all / [MENTION=8145312]linusdan[/MENTION],

I wondered if any kind soul could just briefly offer their knowledge please... I've been happily flashing roms to the i9100/i9100P, N7000 for some time now, and all has been great... :good:

However my dads phone went a little screwy the other day, and so I said I would re-do it. Upon looking at it, he had a couple of storage areas of 0MB (zero) MB's and nothing could download or write to the internal storage.

I've since STOCK rom'd it, returning to the original PIT files, and tried to reset it up again. (Storage is back to normal, all fully accessible again) I've been looking at the newer roms. However in TWRP, I notice I have a SDCard0 and SDCard1 (and that's without removal storage added yet).

So I think I may a Frankenstein build of storage at moment, so re-read Linusdan's instructions, and going to totally annihilate the filesystems and start again, following the instructions.

My question is this....

Once I have done this, and moved over to fully Emulated Storage. Will this work for older roms, say KitKat / Lollipop era, or do I have to prep for stock / physical storage again? Failure to do so, would I end up with double confused storage again??

Or would simply flashing an old rom, make use of the emulated storage??

Thanks, Lister

[MENTION=7255114]listerofsmeg[/MENTION]

These days I was wondering how to do this and looking for a way to reverse the conversion.

Maybe so, but so far I have not found how.

For now, the only way to use the old ROMs is to install the stock and TWRP without emulated storage.

modem & bootloader update

for Odin3

Hello guys !

Comfort level of this thread: ★ ★ ★ ★ ☆

Today, I share you my 4CSD4 modem & bootloader update pack for Odin3. You will find inside:

- the tar.md5 archive to flash with Odin3, which just contains untouched 4CSD4 bootloader & modem lz4 components (cm.bin, modem.bin, modem_debug.bin, sboot.bin)

- Odin3 v3.13.1, ready to use: some GUI options are disabled to avoid bad usage

- Samsung USB drivers v1.5.65.0 installation file

As components are stock/untouched, the flash will not tamper your knox, so if your knox was 0x0 before, it will be 0x0 after.

To flash, just use Odin3 within my package (install Samsung USB drivers before if not done yet): fill AP with the tar.md5 archive.

[General Questions and Answers] Bl4DEx:
Hello,

I have been looking for an answer to this for a while and can't find something.

Current state: Huawei Honor 6X with LineageOS 14.1 (Thanks to the user HassenMirza01 Forum Thread here) and Elite TWRP (Forum Thread here)

Aim: LineageOS 15.1

Problem:

1: There is a Forum Thread on cyanogemods.org talking about a development build. The given download link there is androidfilehost.com.

The problem is that I can't use that file for flashing the OS because there is just a system image called "system_a.img" in the zip-file, nothing else. As far as I know there has to be some more files and folders to be able to flash the OS. When I try to flash the zip with TWRP it says "Invalid zip file format".

2: I tried a different file given on getdroidtips.com, but the given download link ends up here sourceforge.net with an empty project.

My question: Is there a way I am not aware of to flash a single image file?
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Hey guys. Whipped this thing up to help people choose the panels that can be displayed on the homescreen. So far it only contains 7 entries, the ones I found on my phone. You can turn the panels off or on, by selecting a panel and typing it "off" or "on" respectively. After you make the changes, you need to reboot to see the changes. The last option will make that easier for you. Choose "Reboot", type "yes" and it will reboot for you. Let me know if there's any other panel names you would like me to add, or if you find any bugs. Thanks! :)
[HTC Excalibur] Clydeistheshit:
Look good but isn't this just like the chome settings (neoOrder) that is in Rockys ROM where you can enable and disable the windows you want and change which position they are in on the screen?
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
Everyone isn't running rickwyatt's ROM. Some are still with Kavana's. Like me. :)
[HTC Excalibur] Clydeistheshit:
ohh ok I didn't know that it wasn't in Kavana's ROM I have never flashed one of his just Rickys .. my bad
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
To Clyde: It's cool. Contrary to popular belief, there are still some users that are on Kavana's ROMs. lol I have no problem with rickwyatt's, but I found them to have too many apps and tweaks that I found unnecessary for me personally.

To Org (and anyone who'll listen): This is great idea for those who aren't quite comfortable with editing their .xml files to rearrange the slider panels (like me)! I've noticed that many users have a panel called "My Programs". What do I need to do to create this? I think it's a really useful tool to "slide" straight through the programs you use on a regular basis. I've already read tons of posts on this, but it's not registering. Thanks in advance, guys.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
It's difficult to sit here and do a step by step, but I'll point you in the right direction and answer your questions later.

1) Download a registry editor or use the one on the phone.

2) First off, keep in mind there's TWO places in the registry where you need to make changes. One is HKLM\Security\Chome\DefaultSettings\CWelcomeCenter and HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Chome\CWelcomeCenter

3) Look for a key that says "Disabled" and make sure it doesn't say "1". Or use my utility to turn the welcome center on.

4) When you're in the registry you'll find Page1, Page2, Page3 etc etc in both places. Each Page represents ONE slide. For each page you can makes changes such as... ACTIONURL is the path to the program you want to execute when hitting the middle button. for example "\program files\NRG\Chomeweathersettings\weather.exe" will run the weather program :)

SK2URL is the same, but for the right softkey. SK2Text is a label for that softkey. The "pictures" key points to the .png file you will be using as an icon for your program. Right now it probably says "2500". Change it to "\windows\weather.png" and you'll get the weather icon in its place, for example. The Title text is self descriptive... put in whatever you want the title of the slide to be.

I hope you can figure it out from here :)
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
Thanks a bunch, man. I'm gonna finagle with this as soon as I get off.
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
I'm understanding how to read the code. Thanks for breaking it down. I'm just having trouble finding the .pngs for my icons and also (noob moment) finding the target file for certain applications. It's keeping me from being able to input the file address for ACTIONURL and SK2URL.
[HTC Excalibur] outerdepth:
Not Hard to Find

Just think of your program, "Where is it stored?"

That should be your only question when finding your target file. That simple, you should look in your Program Files directory on your phone or you storage card, that will then tell you where the link is.

2ndly, you can find other programs in your startup folder. They will be listed in link format, but this is fine, the link can be treated basically as the exact file itself (as far as your phone is concerned).

Long story short, use these locations for your entries for ACTIONURL and SK2URL. Have a blast!:cool:
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
Thanks, OD. I've figured out the file locations and such. I just need to know where you guys edit the .pngs for icons. I've found some icons, but they sucketh. I want them glossy and polished looking like the default icons.
[HTC Excalibur] outerdepth:
By "where" , I assume you mean what programs do we use?

I use Photoshop do edit my pngs. I think other, cheaper software is available. Don't quote me on that. Photoshop can also be attained other "ways" (cough,cough).

Anyways, you can easily mod any pictures, turn them into anything you want, .png,.tga,.gif,etc. Look around.
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
I understand how to make any pic a .png, .jpg, .gif, etc... It's not the icons that I need, but rather, the program. I'll search for "alternate" ways to get photoshop. lol
[HTC Excalibur] nhungcle:
Rinku has a pretty good description on how to add CProgs on his blog. It at the bottom of the page.
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
Thanks guys for all your help and input! I've figured it out, and in the process figured out how to change the small icons in the upper lefthand corner of the panels as well. It's kinda tedious at first, but once you get the hang of it--it's not bad.
[HTC Excalibur] pudgedaddy:
For photo edtiting, i use GIMP,,,, it's the same program i used to modify the yahoo weather icons for ORG...... it's free and works just as well as photoshop CS3.

Go here if you want to try. www.gimp.org
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
Thanks, Pudgemeister. I'll check it out.
[HTC Excalibur] goraps:
I used GIMP for my icons, it was easy and I think they turned out quite nice. Here are a few that I found/made they all have transparent backgrounds. Feel free to use which ever you like.
[HTC Excalibur] goraps:
A few more
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
Editing Slider Panels

Does anyone know the default setting for this registry key: \HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\CHome\CMessage\ICONPATHS? I changed it trying to change the condensed icon (upper lefthand corner) for the message notifications panel. Instead, my weather panel's icon was changed. What're the default values for the key? (ex. 2xxx;2xxx)
[HTC Excalibur] nhungcle:
It is 2201;2201
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
Gracias! I appreciate that!
[HTC Excalibur] outerdepth:
This Sucks, But It's True

I Know someone told you this, but it's useless information. OrganicM told me on another thread that the unselected icon, which is the same as your messages unselected icon, is not changeable. I found this out the hard way, after I asked him this AFTER I spent 3 hours trying to make this happen. I learned something that day, never spend 3 hours messing with something that's not working, when you can ask someone with experience what you're doing wrong. Trust me, so far there is no info from Microsoft on this CTestUIPlugin (or its icon). So, giveup on it for now. We'll try again later, or just keep looking for other info, because no reg edit, code change, or dll change, will affect this.

WHY?!?........ ........I don't know.:(
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
What's weird is...the TestUIPlugin icon CHANGED after I changed my notifications panel icon!!! It's the same icon as the notifications panel icon! Why? I have no earthly clue. I even went back and double-checked my other icon locations to make sure things were right.
[HTC Excalibur] outerdepth:
That's What I'm Talking About

That's what I meant, the notifications panel, not the messages panel. It IS weird, I admit.

Windows Mobile is mysterious in many ways...
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
It's not that mysterious really....:) both plugins use the same icon, so it makes sense that if you change the icon, both panels will display the new icon ;)
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
CLinks....it's not in the list.
[HTC Excalibur] outerdepth:
MSCR Below, Doesn't Help Unless you have already Manually Updated Registry 1st

yeah, I made an updated version of this panel chooser. I Substituted the value 8 and made it CLinks. I called it internet and made what was value 8, value 9. When I went to CPanelChooser, my new value was there, but it did not reflect my changes once you reboot (I selected CLinks=ON).

It stayed the same. The only the I could figure out, is when we are downloading this cab, it took the CLinks value out of the General tab for each of the CHome reg entries. It's not there, so you can't turn it off or on. CLinks is still a key under those keys, but it is not listed under the pages section of CHome, if you see what I mean. So you have to manually add this until OrganicM updates his weather cabs reg entries to include to CLinks. If you would like an updated mscr for you CPanelChooser, that includes this option it is posted below.:cool:

It does work however, if you have updated your registry once, then you can turn it off or on.
[HTC Excalibur] outerdepth:
Uh Huh (LOL!)

:cool:That's what I think is weird or "Mysterious" as I stated earlier. It is the only panel that uses another's icon, it's like Microsoft just gave up when designing for this. Anyway, not trying to start a feud on whether this is weird, I'm just bored and posting.
[HTC Excalibur] ALEUT:
You can use my very small program, which in 2 seconds refresh CHome:)

Warning! This method works if CTestUIPlugin isn't active!
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
How is your little program accomplishing that, if you dont mind me asking ? is it killing the home.exe process and restarting appman.exe as ell or did u find a more elegant way ? ;)
[HTC Excalibur] ALEUT:
No, this program killed nothing, it's more elegant way:)
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Which is....... ? :)
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
I just tried your program and it killed home.exe. No refreshing....

So what gives ? It looks like you ARE killing home.exe to accomplish it! LOL :D
[HTC Excalibur] ALEUT:
This program send to system message using CHome CLSID that CHome needed in refresh. If you want to use this method in your program the code is very simple:

CLSID clsid;

CLSIDFromString(TEXT("{E9267CAB-02EE-4f37-8216-6BF6A8FF5A71}"), &clsid);

SHOnPluginDataChange( &clsid );

:)

Warning! This method works if CTestUIPlugin isn't active!
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Well it doesnt work in the emulator and on my excalibur... it crashes home.exe instantly :(
[HTC Excalibur] ALEUT:
It work very well on typhoon and mpx200, check your CHome CLSID
[HTC Excalibur] rickwyatt:
CHomeRefresh.exe works on my htc s620 thanks aleut
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Well I guess it works when CTestUIPlugin is disabled. However it doesn't work when that's enabled.... :( if you can figure THAT out... you'd be my hero :)
[HTC Excalibur] showaco:
Same here, doesn't work on blackjack while testui is active. I had to reboot after home screen disappeared and never came back.:(
[HTC Excalibur] ALEUT:
So, I have found no solution because CTestUIPlugin is very depends on home.exe:(
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
It works if you kill the home.exe process and restart it. the problem is... when home.exe comes back the start menu dissapears also. the fix for that is, you also kill appman.exe and restart it with the correct arguments, BUT it only works half the time ;( I also just noticed that cprog.exe gets killed also and thats a big no no... so the search to elegantly refresh chome while testui is active, continues..... ;/

Accidentally i didn't remember what i've deleted. i only noticed after my phone restarts and the launcher icons are ALL gone and it's not responding to my swipes but i can access settings only the launcher had broken. and i thinking of reseting thru TWRP recovery which is my recovery now cuz i'm rooted.

So i've deleted all the data. and boot my phone up. When i'm logging in my wifi password. to unluck the FRP. i also removed the pre installed keyboard! yeah i know i'm so dumb huh.

now i'm stuck. my plan is to have a flashble .zip system app? cuz that's the only thing that i've messed with system apps.

or 2nd

flash a stock firmware from TWRP. is it possible?

3rd...

which is i'm really scared doing the 3rd choice. using the PC to flash my phone again cuz. my phone bricked using MSM tool to flash. but it failed...

i don't exactly remember the line where the flash failed but it i think is saids "Connect USB to download" or something

I will flash a stock rom using PC. BUT i dont have any links, drivers, and ALSO exact procedures. PLEASE HELP GET MY OPPO F1F back kickin again!

Hi,

I'm working in an android app that has to "talk" via Bluetooth with a device. App has to be able to send and receive data.

I started to work with BluetoothAdapter but couldn't make it work properly so I leave it for a few weeks. Now I would like to continue with that and I wonder if is mandatory to use the BluetoothAdapter.

The phone is able to find and pair devices itself so why we need BluetoothAdapter? Why don't we use those connections directly and try to "talk" with the paired devices?

Does it make sense?

[Xiaomi Mi 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] _MartyMan_:
Hi all! :D

I got this nice phone yesterday. I made a Mi account about 3 month ago, hoping that when i get the phone i can unlock it immediately. Sadly, MiFlash Unlock said that "You need to wait 360 hours..." etc.

But i found a way that could unlock immediately. :good:

- First of all, you need to download latest MiFlash Unlock. Get it here. (You need to update it in the app itself, just to be sure you have the latest version.)

- Sign in, Install latest drivers, connect Mi account & device etc.

- Go for unlocking, to the point where it says "You need to wait..."

Now the fun part:

I was reading guides and stuff in this forum, where i found a thread about 360 hours of waiting. There was a comment by [MENTION=7540102]arddy1[/MENTION] (Thank you) which solved this issue.

- Download this MiFlash Unlock tool (This is an older version.)

- Sign in, go for unlocking (It'll still wipe everything so make backups)

- Reboot

- Enjoy :D

It's not 100% working but you can give it a try.

Hope i helped! Happy flashing :good:
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] arddy1:
So you're able to unlock instantly with that mi unlock right? Are you sure you have not waited 360h before?

In my case, that mi unlock version didnt make me unlock immediately, but to skip additional waiting hours. I still need to wait 360h before can unlocking.

I heard some old or admin mi account can unlock instantly. In your case, I dont know how it works. For normal account, normally you need to wait 360h on whatever any mi unlock version.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] _MartyMan_:
I tried unlocking with the latest tool yesterday, which gave me the 360h waiting. Today i found your comment and tried. It worked instantly :D

Doesn't work for me, still got 173h left on both versions.

[Xiaomi Mi 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] doggydog2:
according to my theoretical & practical research old tricks like using old miflash, old account do not work. i used also this version with veteran account and it didn't decrease waiting time by a nanosecond. the only trick still working is when xiaomi gives you extra ~3 days to wait as a bonus for not using the device (who would use non-rooted device?:)), you can skip it with old miflash.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ducter:
I've ordered one, should be here Saturday. Given that, I'm reading where you basically have to use the device during that 15 days? I'd honestly prefer not to until I can set it up how I prefer, from what you gather, using the old version will allow that?
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] doggydog2:
Good attitude. I'm strict too and i didn't use the device at all, and also borrowed SIM card for the registration process. So i got penalty 3 extra days for not providing Spyaomi enough of profiling data:) I can imagine excited sheep, having privacy in mind as last priority, will use the phone most actively during the first days, which is perfect for them.

You don't need to do it. After 15 days, get a bail from extra jail with old miflash. Just make sure to keep the account, i switched, and the countdown started over. After oem unlock, you can delete the account from phone, then delete it from the xiaomi website. Bye bye:victory:

Great. That's what I'll do then.
