[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trinec:
What do you think about Desktop modes for Android, who uses it sometimes or as a daily driver? After taking a look on Easy Projection (Huawei) and DEX (Samsung) I'm really excited. Since EP needs some more caring, DEX seems to be really good. At least I'm able to do my daily business with a single device, can mirror my content to a wireless display/TV or just use my Dock at home and work. It took some time to find the right app alternatives to make sure to have the best feeling in Desktop mode, some app cloning to make sure this can be opened multiple times etc. - but it works.

At some points I'm struggling with auto focus, shortcuts etc. - but I could image to keep this to replace my Mac soon. With Android Q there could be a native possibility but it doesn't look that there is given much care about.

What do you think about Android Desktop modes and Desktop replacement?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PaddleStroke:
I first thought it could not replace for real a PC or mac because it lacks the softwares and games I was using on windows (3D modeling, CAD software, inkscape, picture editing, video editing...). But then I found shadow.tech, it's basically a service that lends you a cloud computer. So you can get a windows desktop with a most powerfull computer directly on your android. So all the windows software you could want are accessible easily.

So the answer for me is yes. Until all software makers will release correct android version, you can run any software with other services.

I'm so convinced by the desktop mode that I developped Keydock a keyboard-docking-station to bring a really great docking experience.

I've tried Magisk Canary and different TWRP versions , even wipe system (It can be mounted when it‘s empty - -)
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] TechNash:
Happened to me before. I believe I cleared the system partition and it worked.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] seardna:
Please tell me the version of magisk and twrp you use?

I tried to wipe the system ,data , all partitions has been wiped with TWRP 3.3.0 . Than flash-all with -w.

Maybe some steps wrong, I have no idea .
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] TechNash:
Latest TWRP from website, magisk stable
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] seardna:
Thanks. But can you mount system in the TWRP? While install Magisk , there are some errors failed to mount /system (Invalid argument )
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] prot-:
Would this be why titanium backup doesn't open either ??
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] darkoj2007:
this happened with beta 4 also. don't know if it's twrp or magisk issue
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] jiajialing:
Q5,same issue here, tried everything, factory reset, format partition, no luck

apart from this, everything works

in root explorer, you can't mount R/W
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] seardna:
A latest magisk alpha version maybe solved this problem .

Here is the custom channel :backup up FIRST!

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] ismael47:
solución

hello good forgive my English is not very good but I will tell you the solution I had the same problem the solution is that you have to go mount and select read mode and check the boxes then install the twrp in zip and then magisk and will not give you the system saddle problem and vendor I have magisk running that way if you have any questions let me know and I help you a greeting.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] darkoj2007:
this method will work, I tried this with beta 4. But even then you can`t mount system and delete system apps. You will just pass the error while flashing magisk. I hope the dev will find solution for this. Also system apps are not in system/app anyomore, maybe that have some impact with all this
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] ismael47:
[/IMG]

so that the system remains installed you have to leave it in read mode and select the vendor and the system you leave it marked then without unchecking you install the twrp and the magisk and everything is correct the system will be mounted.[IMG="foto"]https://ibb.co/dkGyZNk[/IMG]
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] RedNXL:
I'm on official release 10.0.0 (QP1A.190711.020, Sep 2019) flashed without "-w" over android 9. Pixel 2.

Flashed latest TWRP (3.3.0-0) and 19.3 Magisk, then latest canary. Nothing helps.

Did you manage to find solution? I would appreciate any help.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] damagi123:
Dude that does seem to work at least for the magisk install. It doesnt help fix other issues like adaway and titanium backup from not being able to mount system though!

Appreciate your effort anyway
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Larzzzz82:
There's a setting in magisk that'll allow you to install adaway. Systemless hosts...tap it then reboot and adaway should install.

That worked for me.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] 0E800:
I was able to get /system to mount by going to Advanced Wipe and selecting 'system' and choosing repair -> Change File System - EXT2 then go back and switch it back to EXT4.

I have not been able to get /vendor mounted and I believe it is because the syntax used has changed.

I read that AOS10 uses a form of EXT4 that preserves it as ready only, possibly by filling the used space of the drive preventing any writing.

This explains some of the new obstacles TWRP must compensate for in order to maintain compatibility w/ AOS10

https://source.android.com/devices/architecture/kernel/mounting-partitions-early

I have had luck installing Magisk by enabling USB Debug and typing in ADB shell:

cat /dev/block/sda19 > /sdcard/boot.img

Open Magisk and chose to install to file and select the boot.img.

Replace boot.img in the zip file that contains Android 10 factory firmware.

Current Marlin factory firmware [ https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/marlin-qp1a.191005.007.a1-factory-c27241e0.zip ]

Inside marlin-qp1a.191005.007.a1-factory-c27241e0.zip is another archive: image-marlin-qp1a.191005.007.a1.zip ; inside this archive is boot.img.

Using 7zip you can open this archive and drag / drop boot.img replacing the stock image with the Magisk patched one.

Run Flash-all.bat, note it *WILL Wipe* your device but include a Magisk patched boot.img.

Once you finish initial setup of phone, download magisk manager and when you open it, it will automatically patch and reboot your phone enabling root. (make sure you have internet connection before opening magisk manager)

After you have root enabled phone you can customize /system to your liking and then cat /dev/block/sda33 > /sdcard/system.img to replace the firmware version.

(Still am not able to load /system as RW using FX, so have yet to be able to modify .props)

You can locate the various links and identify if you are using slot a/b by typing in TWRP terminal : ls -la /dev/block/by-name/

How would I go about replacing the Q5 dialer with the Q3 dialer? I tried it with TITBU by freezing and installing the APK but it failed?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Droid_Nut:
Actually TITBU did downgrade the dialer, but it looks the same, so blocking must be at the kernel level?

Hey! The version of the messaging app only changes features. The UI is all serverside, hence why google can suddenly change messages back to its original theme.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Droid_Nut:
So you are saying the messaging app decides what features the phone app has?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] TechNash:
Yes. Doesn't affect UI unless it is a really old version.

[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] manor7777:
So, strange question and I might be asking for the wrong thing.

On OOS with viper (tried all varieties) if I have viper on over BT headphones, and the volume is above 80%, anything remotely bassy clips like hell and I get quieter volume during that point. I never had this problem with any older phone that wasn't OnePlus. If I used a custom os like Lineage on my old OP5, the problem never appeared. I use the aptx hd Bluetooth codec, but turning that off makes no difference. If its the Bluetooth stack, maybe its possible to port the Lineage one to OOS? I'm not sure what exactly it is, but if anyone has an idea, I'm open to it.

I like OOS and would like to stay on it, mainly to maintain my safetynet and stability.

Edit: The effect I had on if either dynamic system, or viper bass, both at minimum settings. Worked in my old phones that were not oneplus
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] explosivequack:
Have you tried the viper in xxnolimits? I had the same issue with other vipers on oos but using this one I have no issues with clipping. I don't really use dynamic system with my headphones because it doesn't really add bass, but just lowers the volume of everything except bass. This was the same on aosp as well, and I did just test with the included no limits viper and got no clipping.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] manor7777:
In fact, I did, it was the best copy of viper I had seen. It only seems to be with oneplus phones on OOS. When I use aosp/lineage I don't get the problem. With xxx, the effect was a lot less clippy, but because I sometimes have my music up at 100%, like on my Bluetooth speakers (it's a big one), it's still noticeable. It's like the OOS audio stack, or Bluetooth drivers or something have something to do with it.

The only other thing i could think of would be to modify the audio mixer file to raise the volume, so that the current 100% volume is now around 80%.that might also solve it but I have no idea where to begin

The best thing I've found so far is to lower the output volume on viper to -3db to fix it, it's not perfect though

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dang:
A quick search of the wiki and kaiser forums didn't find anything related to this so here goes...

I have a gray market Kaiser bought about 1 yr ago and it came with a 1.81.707 WWE ROM installed. The Network Wizard displays countries such as Australia, India, HK, Singapore, etc. so I'm guessing the phone was originally targeted for sale in that area of the world.

I recently tried to upgrade to the official 6.1 WWE ROM, but the install failed with a message about the ROM not matching the phone. I'm assuming the phone has been CID locked so it won't work with the new WWE ROM and I'd like to know what official ROM would actually work with this phone.

Is there any non-permanent method of finding out what the CID Lock is currently set to? A couple of the unlocker apps appear to provide this facility however I'm only interested in using official ROMs with this phone. Therefore I haven't run any of the SIM/CID/SPL utilities available in the other Kaiser forums.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] KDKobes:
You need to read the Wiki and make sure you HardSPl before any flashing is done, I would also recommend you get it sercurity unlocked. All this information can be found in the Wiki.

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser#ROMx20.Upgrading
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dang:
Thanks for the pointer to the wiki and on HardSPL. After watching the forums for the past couple of years and reading the wiki I'm well aware of the recommendations around flashing new unofficial ROMs.

However my question is slightly different. I'm trying to find out if it is possible to find out what the CID lock setting for the phone is without having to load HardSPL or one of the other related unlock tools.

Any ideas are appreciated.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] livefastdiefun87:
As far as I know it can only be done with these apps. OliPro has a SIM/CID unlocker that you can use. You dont have to unlock the handset if you dont want to but it will show you the current CID code. Hope this helps

I have unlock code of my mate 9, and it works as well.. i try to downgrade my mate 9 to Emui 7 but it can't be downgraded since huawei security .

anybody knows how to downgrade mate 9 from Emui 9 to Emui 7 ?
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] luck2ang:
bootloader change i mean xloader therefore only mate 9 oreo latest is the last downgrade firmware. If u use hurupdater or twrp or any method will brick the phone for sure. Dun try.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] sfoot13:
You can't! Don't even try it or your phone will die.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] binary_boy01:
Yes, you can! I did it twice. You have to connect with huawei software, windows preferred, go to update. You have to perform 2 downgrades, 1st to 9.0.1 and second to 8.0xxx.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] ante0:
Oreo is not EMUI 7 (Though, there is no EMUI 7. Nougat was EMUI 5).

New, updated, bootloader was added in Oreo so that's the furthest you can downgrade.

But your method is the only safe way of doing it.

I've downgraded from 9.1 to 9.0 fine using NoCheck, but going back to 8.0 may brick (Depends on build you downgrade to)

Downgrading from 9.1 to 8.0 directly using NoCheck will brick and requires test-point to fix.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] zgfg:
So, just to confirm please - even by TestPoint it is not possible to downgrade from 9.01 to 8.0 but before the Bootloader was changed (to be able to obtain BL code the 'old way', from DC)?
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] ante0:
You can downgrade to board firmware using testpoint, then get bl code through HCU (which is needed anyway because board wipes imei and stuff). You'd then have to update from board to Oreo using dload. The dload needs to be from after bootloader was updated, else you will get a black screen only. (but you can use testpoint again to flash board again).

So far the best screen protector for this phone if you want a glass screen protector. It has good olephobic coating so it's smooth and because I got the 0.33mm version they don't crack easily.
