Whenever I can get my hands on the quad-band version for the US, you better believe I'm doing it. The specs are awesome and I'm sure whatever they do for the HTC Dream will be able to be ported to this sans "compass" accelerometer.

The few of you can poo-poo how you won't buy another HTC device can do whatever you want, means more of a chance for me to get one at a lower price (supply/demand).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] NikonMan:
Quite simply actually ... a cursory visual inspection reveals the similarity.

SE's Xperia will be delayed to market as SE is finalizing their touch screen interface.

[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] afdals:
Is it possible?

if possible how to flash it?
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Robbo.5000:
I assume you meant Mi 9T Pro. Get a Mi 9T Pro fastboot ROM, either global or European, and flash it with the Mi Flash Tool.

Plenty of places in these forums with links to the ROMs and plenty of guides for flashing. They're not hard to find.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] afdals:
Which rom is best? Indian or global or European?
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Robbo.5000:
Depends on what's important. Main differences.

Indian ROM loses all NFC functionality, but has POCO launcher as standard, which has an app drawer.

European and global are the same, best guess is that the only difference between the 2 is GPS optimisation and ad delivery. These 2 options both lose the MIUI dialer, so they no longer have call recording.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] afdals:
I didn't get your GPS point.

Which ROM you suggesting to install?
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Robbo.5000:
To be quick GPS needs to know roughly where it is first. It's why phones also use WiFi/mobile data too for location services, this gives a quick rough location, with actual GPS giving the accuracy. If you choose the option to only use GPS you still get the accuracy, but it takes a lot longer to get there.

When companies sell phones regionally, they will pre configure the GPS based on the region, so that the GPS already knows it's in that specific region to start with.

If you need NFC, then choose either European or global, based on where you are in the world.

If you need call recording, but not NFC, choose the Indian.

If you don't care about either, choose the ROM based on where you are.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] afdals:
Im from Sri Lanka you suggest me a rom.

Thanks for your best explanation.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Robbo.5000:
I see Sri Lanka has NFC based tap and go card systems on public transport. Has this been upgraded to include mobiles with NFC and a dedicated app? Or is there plans to do this? Would this be something you would use?

If you think you'll never need to use the NFC, go with the Indian ROM.

You could always change later if you needed NFC in the future.

If you need NFC now go with the global ROM.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Broman400:
Currently have my M8 on a 8.1 ROM and want to upgrade to a 9.0 ROM. Was wondering which one works best for people, either the official Lineage OS or AICP one. Also saw a Resurrection Remix rom posted here: https://xdaforums.com/htc-one-m8/general/discussion-android-pie-t3832709/page2. Not sure if anyone has tried that.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phalangioides:
Sadly none of them ever worked decently for me, not even with many clean flashes, AICP was pretty close though.

Went with older crDroid instead, still surprised how stable and problem free it is.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Broman400:
Crdroid is 8.1 based?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phalangioides:
Yeah, it is. I'm fine with an older rom when it's perfectly working.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
All Android 9 roms seem to have an issue with random restarts.

At the moment I'm using AICP which runs very well with great battery life except for the random reboots.

The best and most stable for me was XenonHd 8.1. The developer is currently working on Android 9 builds and hopefully will have stable versions out soon.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Broman400:
I settled on Lineage, but I haven't experienced any random reboots. Using it occasionally for the past few days
[Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers] zanoli99:
Is there a way to get clear all instead of closing individually?
[Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers] Skittles9823:
Not that you ever really need to clear all recents for any reason on this device, but the button is all the way to the left in the recents screen.
[Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers] zanoli99:
Thanks weird it's not there for me. Latest update installed.
[Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers] acejavelin:
If you use 3-button navigation the Clear All option isn't there, you have to swipe each one away individually, but if you use 2-button navigation the option is on the far left (can't speak for gesture navigation, I can't use it as I have Nova because I can't give up my unread count badges). Threw me off to until I figured it out. I know it isn't necessary, but I like to clean out the list once in a while just to make it easier to use. I don't know if this was purposely done or a simple oversight, but it's keeping me on 2-button navigation for now even tough I prefer 3-button navigation.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] PattayaGlock:
Noone has marked this solved so I am posting here to make it easier to find the solution that works.

Credit goes to hachamacha.....if this works for you, please click the link below and click 'thanks' on his original post. I can't figure out how to quote his post without it just adding to the many pages of the OP he commented on, plus I have changed the instructions to do it all within TWRP instead of using adb. It worked and was much simpler, BUT, he gets the credit for the solution.

https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-5/help/error-255-twrp-t3739468/page2

For me the problem was hidden 999 files. I cleared everything mentioned in all the other posts, but still could not back up. The 999 files were tucked away in 2 spots no one had mentioned in any post.

Reminder, turn off your screenlock password before you start.

I booted into TWRP, clicked advanced, terminal, cd /data/, typed "ls */999", made a note of all the locations that had 999 files.

Then I ran "ls */10" to make sure there was not a guest profile( there wasn't for me, but you may have one).

Went back to file manager, navigated to each location, deleted the 999 folders.

Rebooted into TWRP, repeated the previous steps to verify no more 999 files, advanced, back up. Worked like a charm.

Reboot system.

Be sure to copy the file to your computer if you are going to install a custom ROM as it will get wiped in the process.

Here is the content of hachamacha's post post:

"I just ran into this too. I'm looking here after the fact and the way I fixed it and don't see what I did so this is it:

- for me, it was the presence of multi-user directories in numerous places. I don't use multi-users on pie so not sure why they're there, but it hurts nothing to delete them.

- if I only deleted 999, that'd not have worked for me

- First: I read the recovery.log file after rebooting after the failed backup. It's a big file, so I transferred it to a laptop and used notepad+ --

- Look in there for the error (tarfork) and then look for the file/directory that began the chain of errors. Mine happened to be /data/vendor_ce/10

- Go to your /data/ folder in root explorer (or equiv):

- Do an ls */10 to find out all the places the 10 user occurs or you'll then get the error on the next 10 file. For me it was 5 other dirs.

- All you should have for user number directories in those places is 0 (unless you use multiple users and then I don't know).

- delete each one. I did it all from adb on a booted op5. so like this: "rm -r /data/{folder}/xx" where {folder} is where you found the 10 11 whatever, and xx is user-numbers other than 0

- when you've got them all gone, reboot directly into recovery so you have no chance of the system recreating them (so for me: adb reboot recovery)

- Backup. Mine worked no errors and was actually faster too because the errors take time to timeout.

- reboot system

Careful when using 'rm -r' that you only delete what you want to or you can mess up your phone. - cheers.

I used this one but when I compare the photos of the OEM app and this Gcam the processing is identical so I think there is something wrong with this one, the photos from it look identical with the same over-processed look. see photo attached showing OEM crop vs GCam crop (comp1) OEM camera left, GCam stark5.1.018_24_v4.2t3 on right. Then see comp2, OEM camera left and a different LG G6 camera port from GCam on the right, where you can see a nice improvement in IQ with less processing etc. more natural looking detail.

Cstark on hdr+ is better than stock g6 cam. I like the little over processed look. Even hdr is greater than g6 cam....heck any ported cam is better than the g6 stock cam. Ctsark's own is stable and no configs are needed. Night mode is a gimmick so leave 6.1 alone.

Using QCom Clang To Compile Kernel [Xiaomi's Guide]

Step 1 : Setup Build Environment

Open the terminal and enter the following :

sudo apt-get install git ccache automake flex lzop bison \
gperf build-essential zip curl zlib1g-dev zlib1g-dev:i386 \
g++-multilib python-networkx libxml2-utils bzip2 libbz2-dev \
libbz2-1.0 libghc-bzlib-dev squashfs-tools pngcrush \
schedtool dpkg-dev liblz4-tool make optipng maven libssl-dev \
pwgen libswitch-perl policycoreutils minicom libxml-sax-base-perl \
libxml-simple-perl bc libc6-dev-i386 lib32ncurses5-dev \
x11proto-core-dev libx11-dev lib32z-dev libgl1-mesa-dev xsltproc unzip

Step 2 : Download Required Files

Download device source :

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/MiCode/Xiaomi_Kernel_OpenSource.git -b davinci-p-oss davinci-p-oss

Download a compatible GCC toolchain (Using AOSP's GCC for this guide) :

cd davinci-p-oss
git clone https://android.googlesource.com/platform/prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/aarch64/aarch64-linux-android-4.9 toolchain

Download the Qcom CLANG : Download

Move the downloaded file in the davinci-p-oss folder manually and then extract using the following command :

tar vxzf snapdragon-llvm-compiler-android-linux64-609.tar.gz

Download the device-tree-compiler attached below and place it in /usr/bin

Step 3 : Make device specific changes

Make these changes in the /kernel/module.c file.

If you are not familiar with github, you can check out many github guides available on XDA, for now you can just download the module.c file attached to this thread and replace the one in /kernel folder with the downloaded one!

Now, browse back to davinci-p-oss directory, and open the davinci_user_defconfig located in \arch\arm64\configs

Add the following lines :

CONFIG_BUILD_ARM64_DT_OVERLAY=y
CONFIG_MODULE_FORCE_LOAD=y

WIFI & Audio won't work if you don't make these changes, apparently Xiaomi decided to skip wlan & audio drivers in pie sources.

Step 4 : Building The Kernel

cd davinci-p-oss
rm -rf out
mkdir out
export ARCH=arm64
export SUBARCH=arm64
export DTC_EXT=dtc
export CROSS_COMPILE=${PWD}/toolchain/bin/aarch64-linux-android-

make O=out REAL_CC=${PWD}/toolchains/llvm-Snapdragon_LLVM_for_Android_6.0/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin/clang CLANG_TRIPLE=aarch64-linux-gnu- davinci_user_defconfig
make -j$(nproc) O=out REAL_CC=${PWD}/toolchains/llvm-Snapdragon_LLVM_for_Android_6.0/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin/clang CLANG_TRIPLE=aarch64-linux-gnu- 2>&1 | tee kernel.log

Step 5 : How To Get Help If You Encounter Errors

A kernel.log file will be generated in davinci-p-oss folder, find the line which says error.

If you can't figure out the solution, attach the kernel.log in your reply to this thread.

Step 6 : Booting The Kernel

Once you're done with Step 4, browse to /out/arch/arm64/boot & you'll find the Image.gz-dtb file (compiled zImage)

Download the anykernel template for davinci from attachments and add your Image.gz-dtb file to the archive.

Boot in TWRP, backup your stock kernel & flash the anykernel zip.

This method is mentioned in Xiaomi's Wiki, you can choose any according to your preference!

How To Compile Custom DTBO

DTBO files have been used on our device primarily to change the refresh rates.

Pre-requisites :

Compiled kernel without any errors

Step 1 : Download Required Files

Download libufdt utils from this link.

Open the terminal in the downloaded file's location.

tar vxzf libufdt-master-utils.tar.gz

Step 2 : Compile dtbo.img

cd /libufdt-master-utils/src
python mkdtboimg.py create /home/user/davinci-p-oss/out/arch/arm64/boot/dtbo.img /home/user/davinci-p-oss/out/arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/*.dtbo

Step 3 : Flash The Compiled dtbo.img

The compiled dtbo.img file will be located in /davinci-p-oss/out/arch/arm64/boot/ (same output folder of zImage)

Hi! Can you please tell me where do i find the files for GPU and CPU frequencies? Thanks!
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Guides, News, & Discussio] BLUuuE83:
Just another question if you don't mind.

What happens if I set too low display timings? I know with a computer monitor it'll just black screen but Windows will reset to defaults after 15 seconds if you don't do anything.

Will I just get a black screen meaning I brick my phone?
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Guides, News, & Discussio] acervenky:
You can't change the CPU frequencies, however to edit GPU frequencies you can edit these files:

arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/sm8150-gpu-v2.dtsi
arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/sm8150-v2.dtsi

If you set the timings too low/high they'll reset to the default values.
