[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] DeBlue:
I haven't quiet found yet where to post this question but here goes... So I have an Xbox One S Controller connected to my OnePlus 6 android phone via Bluetooth but it seems that the view button on my Xbox controller is mapped to the back function within the OS, so I can't map it in say a Gameboy emulator to its select button because its already hard mapped to back... Is there any workaround this?

Note that my other bluetooth controller which sucks does not share this issue, its view or select button is not mapped to buck in the OS so I can map that one freely but its analog sticks, dpad, triggers and bumpers are downright awful so I prefer the Xbox conntroller in all of those aspects for sure.

Hi, as mentioned in the title, I'm searching for a external microphone that will let me to record HiFi stereo sound.

Does anybody got experience with such topic?

Thanks
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] cpete2112:
Is the reason being that the mic's on the device are not good enough? I believe they are among the best for phones, plus idk if you have the HD audio recorder app on your variant or model, but it does work amazingly well if you use the right settings (gain/levels). Been awhile since I read about the mic's but this phone uses more than 1 mic and they aren't junk, kinda what it was made for, idk if external mic would sound any better or not, especially w/o an expensive mic(s). But I initially bought an irig I/O audio interface that is compatible w/android for a mic or guitar with midi device and has that input and an output for recording, I got $400 worth of software included with the purchase (Amplitube 4 and more for free). BTW it is for sale and basically brand new if your interested, barely used replaced it with the 2i2) zBut for reference the irig i/o will do 24bit/96khz and the mic's and HD audio recorder on the phone will save Flac files up to 24bit/192khz. Or check out irig uo, was made for Android. I got my eye on the axe i/o which just came out for guitar recording, I wish they had these cheap modelers and Sims in the 90's, I think its awesome, I never had the money to buy the real equipment. Give some more info what your trying to do and maybe I could help more. Otherwise a usb audio interface on a PC is the way to go if you have one. Android is way behind Apple on compatible audio interfaces. I use the focusrite scarlet 2i2 that I use for my guitar with amplitube 4 amplifier Sims, it has 2 inputs for a mic and a instrument for recirding which is what (most) people use to make youtube videos. I could technically get it to work on my phone but not much to work with. Android needs to fix there audio latency issues, which is the reason companies don't bother making anything for it, getting more lately but it's not worth it imo, tons of stuff for Apple though but Ive never and will never buy an iPhone. Sorry some of that was off topic but hope I helped. Pm me if u want.

Hi.

Internal mics might be good but I need a professional microphone with a wind and noise protection and higher sensitivity, kinda the same they use on DSLRs. :)

I would like to use it for recording sound samples (nature, forest, etc)

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] cpete2112:
A good usb mic and a USB interface is all you need then. Make sure the interface is compatible with whatever your using. The irig i/o would work with Android or the other one I mentioned above. I'LL sell it cheap to you if your interested.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] wtang:
To connect a stereo microphone (or 2 mono microphones with a Y splitter) to your phone you need this adapter:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005K9WNPG

Since this has a USB A plug, you need an adapter cable to convert the plug to USB C. Something like this:

https://www.amazon.com/Thunderbolt-Compatible-Chromebook-Pixelbook-Microsoft/dp/B07KR45LJW

Then if you're using an app that can handle stereo recording you should be good to go.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] MiZoSpaDe:
Hello everybody.

my question is a little bit noobish, is losing a phone with locked bootloader have any security benefits?

like if it's lost or stolen can the thief access my data ?? can he use the phone after formatting it ??

i really need to know it, and my English is not very good as i tried to search for any updated topic about this matter and i couldn't find such thing
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] JohnTheFarm3r:
On locked bootloader, he can't access your data as your storage is encrypted and any attempt to unlock the bootloader will wipe the storage out. Even if he does some kind of a factory reset, he will still come to the point where he needs a password to unlock the phone after a reset. So no, he can't really use the phone if the bootloader is locked.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] sotosgolf:
With locked bootloader, the thief will not be able to use the phone at all if you have it in secure lock screen.

With unlocked bootloader if you are encrypted (not flashing fde) he will be able to use the phone but will never have access to your data.

With unlocked bootloader and unencrypted (by flashing fde) he will be able to use the phone AND have access to your data.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] MiZoSpaDe:
Thanks guys very helpful, I needed to know the risks... Many thanks [emoji4]
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] stocaprimo:
Eventually you can unlock the phone, without using FDE, and backup/flash/restore with an USB-OTG cable and a USB drive, so your data will be encrypted but you still can "play" with your phone. That's what I did.

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] keeezy:
Hi all,

I have a HTC Touch Dual on Vodafone (Spain) and of course, everything is in Spanish.

Because I am English I thought I would be clever and Flash an English ROM (TOM_Niki-Project_WM6.1_WWE_16keys_signed_Ship.exe) .

The phone is SIM unlocked. I didn't think I would need to do anything else so I started to Flash the ROM. It got to about 4% and then it stopped and I got "Invalid Vendor ID...Ver3 - NJML5567..HUEbc07<NJM5561*" or something like that.

Tried to recover the situation with the Flash program but nothing.

I removed the battery and now it starts up with the Bootloader colour bars.

The only way I can start the phone is by using MTTY and command "boot".

Looks like WINDOWS MOBILE (spanish) program is still intact but I've upset the autoload part of the system.

All I want is an English Flash. Can anyone give me some help.

A step by Step would be great because I'm new to all this.

Do I need to CID Unlock? Do I need to run those other little programs called: "sspl-1[1].16-nike"....and "hardspl-1[1].16-nike" It's a 20 key model...will that make any difference?

ROM Model: NIKI 100

ROM Version is: 1.31.164.09

Radio Version: 1.58.16.27

Just want English Phone (sob sob) Can anyone please help? Don't want to end up with a Spanish Brick !!!!!!!!

I guess while I've got the Bootloader colour bars...I haven't got a brick....right?

Hey wait a minute........that's 2 questions !!!! Sorry.

Thanks for all the help so far.

Managed to Flash the ROM.

A careful step at a time seems to be the way.

Hello!

I have an LG G4 and just got a notice that we're low on mobile data... We mainly use wifi so this piqued my interest enough to dog into my data usage. Wouldn't be the first time I accidentally turned off wifi or something.

I see that 'uninstalled apps' were using over 5 GB this billing period over mobile and over 26 GB over wifi! Going back this seems to be consistent for at least the last three cycles. The data usage is steady thoroughout the month, no spikes. Also, I don't use any apps that would chew through this much data, not even close. I use my phone for work emails, news reading and a hour of YouTube here and there (which is ALWAYS on wifi).

I thought maybe I uninstalled something that I totally forgot about this month, but the fact that it's ocntued for at least 3 months and the usage is so steady it really worries me.

I've looked everywhere I can think of and I can't seem to find anyone else with this problem... I'm hoping the brains at XDA forums can shed some light.

Please help!

I just purchased a Verizon VS996 upgrading from my G3. It's been a couple years since I have rooted and flashed a Rom so before I go any further I have a couple questions.

I located the root thread (on xda) and plan on rooting

1. What Rom that is stable as a daily driver do you recommend?

I'm not looking for all the bells and whistles just something with no/very bloatware. I rely wifi tethering via foxfi a lot and will use the audio via usb to my head-unit. It also has to play well with Android Auto (I'm new to that).

Any advice/recommendation's is much appreciated.

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] schwinn8:
VS996 on stock rooted rom here. I stayed here because I want to keep VOLTE compatibility, particularly since VZ will be dropping standard calling at the end of the year, so you will HAVE to have VOLTE to make calls after that. AFAIK, stock is the only place VZ-VOLTE works.

It's easy enough to debloat further if you want. Just remember to leave the MyVerizon app active, as this is where the VOLTE functionality seems to reside.

Also, when rooting, be sure to follow the WTF thread (specifically post 193 by ChazzMatt). Any other thread is probably inaccurate. Print it out, read it, then read it again... THEN do the steps. It's pretty simple (even though the post is long... but that's because it's VERY detailed).
[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Convert to another firmware.

For VS996, you have to do that at least temporarily anyway -- when unlocking bootloader and installing TWRP. But then you can flash back to latest VS996 firmware via TWRP-flashable zip (built like a ROM), to run stock rooted firmware.

I suggest you do that for a little while anyway, to get a baseline comparison to any ROMs you then may flash. Custom ROMs are a work in progress. What works on stock (LG camera, DTS 3D Surround sound, and for Verizon users having cellular data effortlessly) may not work on AOSP/Lineage custom ROMs -- but devs are always improving their releases all the time. This is not a criticism of any devs.

---------- Post added at 08:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:33 PM ----------

Yeah, when Verizon CDMA is retired end of this year, and VoLTE is mandatory, that's going to be interesting time for any Verizon users on custom ROMs...

VERIZON CDMA Network Activation Retirement

https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-218813/

Rooted Verizon VS996 V30 users won't have to change "devices" when CDMA ends, but if they are on AOSP/Lineage custom ROMs they will have to change back to V30 rooted stock firmware... However, with Magisk mods like Anxious V30, rooted stock firmware is very good.

[LG V30 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Are you reading the instructions on web browser or app? XDA app truncates long posts, randomly skipping entire paragraphs. Read in web browser.

Also you should print out the Instructions so you can read them well.

Nothing is missing. There's links to download what you need. Maybe you are skipping the part where you have to Frankenstein your phone temporarily to US998?

SOME of the instructions are a decision tree: If this, then do X. If that, then go to next section.

In the WTF instructions, having a VS996, it should force you to the Frankenstein instructions. When you finish that step, then return to WTF.
