[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] luisfontes01:
Both are fast without bugs..but .eu ROMs are much better because they are cleaned..dont have Chinese Trash...many services that dont work outside China are there and u dont need and cant use them..the only advantage that Chinese rom have is incremental Ota..eu.rom need to update with full rom...i back to eu rom after 1 ir 2 days
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Deleted member 7639727:
I tried the china stable before tryig the eu version.

My impressions:

- More fluid animations (especially gestures)

- A lot of bloatware (most of it can be disabled, but not all, like the mi store, mi wallet or the assistant)

- Never saw any ads

- You can install Google play with a few clicks, but it's not as integrated as in the eu rom

- OTA incremental easy updates

- Faster updates

I still would like to go back to the china stable for two reasons: Faster updates, less bugs.

But Mi flash and QFIL didn't work on my device (MI A2 with ARB4) I don't know if you can force the flash with TWRP. If you find a way please let me know.

Hope it helps
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] sz.hatef:
What do you mean MiFlash does not flash your phone, it should be able to flash it at least for stable ROMs,

Did you try it in EDL mode either?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] demonoidmaster:
Why not just switch the language in Android? There's no reason to switch versions just to get Chinese

---------- Post added at 07:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:38 AM ----------

So you're wanting to switch to official MIUI that has ads and bloatware over using the builds from xiaomi.eu which the point of xioami.eu is it being the exact same thing as official MIUI but with all the garbage removed? Why?

As far as I know they have only been flashed with SafeStrap.

I have not had the chance to test with TWRP.

I can upload others that will work for TWRP if that is the issue.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jeanz Sensation:
Hello and I'd really appreciate if I can get some help with the issue.

I created a new "outlook" account a few days ago with my real name to use it for professional purposes. At the time, I didn't pay attention and didn't put any recovery email or phone number.

I use bluemail on my android device as the email client and setup the account with this email address.

A few days later, I have now forgotten the password completely and password reset is not working either because I didn't provide any recovery method.

So all I have now is this bluemail client where the email account is stored and I believe somewhere in bluemail's database, the password is also stored.

Can anyone help please on how to recover the password from the bluemail database files? Thanks.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Fabian1985:
Hi Folks,

I've been away for a long time on XDA but I'm back trying to root my S8+ and ofcourse with success.

I made what I believe is my own version wich works for me on to one little detail...Youtube Vanced.

Installed some APK packages, nothing worked with MicroAMG for logging on. After two days (and I don't really know what I did)

I just saw after the 100th boot my Youtube was gone and instead it was Vanced. So no two applications but just the one. It worked for

like three days and know Youtube is back. Like it has overwritten Vanced.

Google Play is not on automatic updates.

Is there a solution, a tool, a workaroud that I can do to make this permanent?

Thanks in advance,

Fabian1985

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] VautourLT:
Turn off auto update on your Play Store, don't update the YouTube app. Detach YouTube from market using Titanium Backup.

If it still doesn't work, install the standalone no root version of the app via XDA Labs and install MicroG.

Yeah I didn't know you could detach it thru Titanium Backup.

Now I've got the non rooted version but no MicroG is working. When signing in it keeps trying but with no success. Gonna trie to detach it thanks!!!

Hey all,

As the title states I'm inquiring about the Galaxy S10 Plus Honk Kong variant and whether it works on US networks and such. I'm looking to get this one because of the unlocked boot-loader and ability to root it, I'm still with the Galaxy S5 so times have changed. Also, if it does work on the networks does it have any missing features such as RCS, VoLTE, etc or have any features that are missing or different from the US version? The site I'm looking to get it from is this place: https://funkyshop.club/shop/phones/44, unless anyone else has any other ideas?

[General Questions and Answers] spinstartshere:
So I bought a Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium late last year. Had it on charge one day a few weeks ago and noticed a burning smell and melted plastic around the charging port. I tried a pressure test, which failed, so I was concerned the phone was no longer water-resistant.

Unfortunately, I purchased this phone through eBay and so went through the eBay retailer for support. Their lack of understanding of this pressure test has meant they have assumed the phone has become water-damaged. They have had my phone for almost three weeks and haven't replied to any of my messages in this time. I raised a dispute with PayPal, who ruled in the seller's favour because they have alleged the pressure test will damage the phone. PayPal have said that I can appeal this decision but would need a signed letter on headed paper from a third party stating that the pressure test will not damage the phone if performed, as the seller has claimed.

I have contacted Sony Xperia for support, but the person I spoke to didn't even know what the pressure test was so I am not expecting that they will be able to provide the letter I have requested. Is there, by any chance, anyone on here who owns a phone repair company or something who would be willing and able to provide me with such a letter to provide to PayPal so I can get my phone repaired or my money back?
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Themes, Apps, and Mods] johnmars:
its long procedure but worked for me I've used this one on AEX latest pie version and Bootleggers latest pie version plus nameless latest kernel on both rom Don't know about other Treble Roms I hope it will work with others too If anyone trys other tell me by posting this thread.....

I'am not developer for this mod so all development credit goes to www.opendesktop.org

But for workaround all credit goes to me

BEWARE YOU CAN'T UNINSTALL IT YOU HAVE TO DIRTY FLASH YOUR CURRENT ROM AGAIN TO UNINSTALL IT

- First delete both audio_effects.conf file from both directories (/vendor/etc/) and (/system/etc/)

- Set SELinux to Premissive use (https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/selinux-mode-inverter-t3775271)

- Flash ClearSound Mod (https://za.gl/gsSDdb)

- Flash Viper4Arise (It will take upto 15 minutes don't be panic till that time)

https://www.opendesktop.org/dl?file...s.zip&file_size=128218850/&project_id=1274328

Note : use aroma installer then in installer screen, select materialize version and yes to (lib workarounds)

- Reboot

- Open DD4Arise App click on power icon to enable sound effects

- Open Viper4Arise App and install driver and Reboot

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If it Doesn't work like what happen in my case DD4Arise force closes and Viper4Arise driver install loop again and again so I've found an workaround :

- Open (/vendor/etc/audio_effects.conf) and find (libv4a_fx_ics.so)

- Change path to (/system/lib/soundfx/libv4a_fx_ics.so)

- Open Viper4Arise and install driver and Reboot

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If still issue remains then final thing :

- Open Magisk and Go to Download section and search for Dolby Digital Plus latest module and reboot

- Open Magisk and Go to Download section and search for Viper4Android latest module and reboot

Note : this one Viper4Android version have aroma installer so use volume buttons and input according to screen instruction, same as above select materialize version by pressing volume up and yes to (lib workarounds) using volume up but there is an extra option for OnePlus which you have to decline by pressing volume down

- Open Dolby app click on power icon to enable sound effects

- Open Viper4Android App it won't ask you to install driver just check driver status and enable master switch then status will change to Processing

Feel Free to Thanks me If It will work on your z2 plus

when you flash this :

https://www.opendesktop.org/dl?file...s.zip&file_size=128218850/&project_id=1274328

It will ask you to use aroma or traditional one and both of them have the same instruction as i've mentioned above difference, only UI is different you have to press volume up or down button to choose option in traditional installer.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] RetroRider:
Hello,

I see there's been a lot that's happened since I've last been on here and I'd usually follow the guide, but I see it says it's "Outdated" so I want to solicit your advice as to where I should begin. My bank has decided their mobile app will no longer work for Android 5.0 users, so I need to upgrade my phone to at least 6.0, and I figure this is a good time to root it as well (if possible). It's a Verizon phone, but I"m currently in Europe (so no OTA updates are possible, which is probably good from what I can tell on the outdated guide). I've searched youtube and found the following guide, but I have to make sure I have a CID 15 phone vice 11 (I think that's all I need to worry about, but I'm not positive and I can't remember how to figure out which version I have eaither LOL):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0HuCHNCbaqc

Do you see any issues with giving that a try, or am I better off just sticking with one of the two Stickie guides at the top of the forum? The issue I see with them is they seem to be more geared towards rooting and don't get into upgrading to a newer version (while maintaining the root). I could be wrong though (or didn't get through the posts far enough to get to that part). Looking forward to hearing your advice....TIA!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] RetroRider:
As I continue to browse the forum, I came across this one that may already answer my question (doesn't seem "Outdated" eaither.....although I will need to go to that outdated thread to flash to PB1):

https://xdaforums.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/general/newbies-guide-to-install-pb1-rom-root-t3481826

Unless someone advises otherwise, I think this is the way to go (gets me to marshmellow while maintaining Root, correct?)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] RetroRider:
As I continue to dig into this thread (https://xdaforums.com/ver...-root-t3481826), it seems to be the most relevant for what I want to do (upgrade to marshmellow while keeping root access). As I go through and try to download everything that's required, I've hit a roadblock with respect to TWRP (specifically, it says to install TWRP 3.0.0 via ODIN, where you have to be sure to install the correct version of TWRP for your device). When I go to the site though, there are only a couple versions for a Galaxy S5, and I don't recognize any of them (Exynos, Neo Exynos, Mini Exynos, Plus, LTE-A, and Qualcom). Can someone point me to one that will work with mine (Verizon, OE1, CID 15)? The first link from a google search brings this up (https://dl.twrp.me/odin/twrp-3.0.0-0-odin.img.html), but it makes no reference to device versions so I'm hesitant to try it..........Or another thought may be that enough updates to TWRP have happened that they have fixed the issue where it didn't recognize SD cards after version 3.0.0, so I can just use Google Play Store to install the latest version and it should work fine.........thoughts? Many thanks!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] RetroRider:
I seem to keep answering my own questions as I continue to dig and google search. Looking further into each of the S5 TWRP devices, under the Qualcom link it specifically mentions the SM-G900v, so I'm going to go with that one and hope for the best :)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] bbsc:
1. Install this app from the Market to learn if your phone can have a rooted 6.0.1.

2. In any case it's possible to flash a "European" firmware to your phone. But the bootloaders and the kernel will remain original.

Schematically, you would need to:

1. Flash a combination rom, root it and install SafeStrap recovery.

2. Flash a desired rom via SafeStrap (system only) and make some tuning from this "recovery" if necessary.

3. Flash the original kernel and bootloaders via SafeStrap or Odin.

P.S. A good bank app will not allow to run it on a rooted phone.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] RetroRider:
I installed that eMMC app and under "Brick Bug?" it says "NO. Same Chip" - not sure what that means....does it mean it can't have a rooted 6.0.1?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] bbsc:
It also says "CID: XX......"

If XX is 15, you can have a rooted 6.0.1.

If XX is 11, you cannot.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Ibuprophen:
Just to clarify with what [MENTION=682658]bbsc[/MENTION] had stated...

CID15 = "Bootloader" CAN be Unlocked

CID11 = "Bootloader" CANNOT be unlocked

BOTH the CID11 and CID15 can be rooted. Identifying the CID# is only used to see if the devices Bootloader can be unlocked.

The following thread is one of a handful of decent ones to help with identifying the CID and the steps to take for both of them. Just be sure to read the OP carefully.
