You can find them in developer options if you have Miui android 10. There was this clickbait website claiming it doubled performance but as we can see it does increase it by little bit but not much.

Values in Vulcan nearly doubles, switching from default drivers to game drivers/pre-released drivers

That's not true

Well I tested it from miui 11 pie to miui 11 Q. They have different values. Pie has around 700 and Q has around 1600 in vulcan

I am trying to root a samsung Galaxy s8+ phone SM-G955U with the latest security patch. At this time I really only want to change the /system/etc/hosts file to add more security to the phone. the security patch level is Jan 1, 2020.

Is this still possible to root? Which rom versions do people recommend?

Root is only achievable on a 7.0 system. No root on 8 or 9. No custom ROMs other than stock based the method for this will be in the development section

Can anyone teach me how to make custom made folder icons just like garmin did and the other cookers out there? thanks ^_^
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] vickoy:
you need a tool like "reshacker" to change the resources of IconRes.dll (file wherein the folder icon stored) :D
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] pak kamchan:
how to do it,brother? tell me step by step please.:rolleyes:
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] vickoy:
- download the reshacker Here!

- extract RESOURCE_HACKER.zip in any folder you like.

- get the IconRes.dll from your \device\windows folder

- go to folder wherein you extracted reshacker. run reshacker.exe

- open IconRes.dll, you will see a "tree map" on the left side panel. click the folder named "icon" then select the icon you wish to change. after that, click "Action" from pull down menu then "replace icon". as easy as that.... :D

- dont forget to save your work and bring it back again to \device\windows folder.
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] gh0st-:
thanks so much for this. :)
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] vickoy:

[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] pak kamchan:
thank you very much, it's very useful tutorial.

regard.

edit; in my xda o2 atom that run on PDAVIET 19965, it only has Icon_batterry and Icon_AC. I can't see IconRes.dll in device>windows. help me please!!
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] mykolor:
ShellRes.dll or IconRes.dll
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] pak kamchan:
Again please!

ShellRes.dll is as same as ShellRes.dll0409mui isn't it?
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] Tna:
It seems that is impossible to copy the Shellres.dll from windows folder to the pc. Using totalcommander it doesn't allow me to copy it to anywhere.

Any ideas?

(running stock wm6)
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development] joannaex:
I don't see why anyone should go to all this trouble. All you need to do to change a folder's icon is to create an icon.lnk file (make it hidden so it doesn't show up) and change the shortcut to whatever path your icon is located. For example, \windows\niceicon.ico or \my documents\myshellres.dll -654

Hacking of course does make a nice hobby :D
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Guides, News, & Discu] droident:
A small PSA for anyone having issues with the touchpanel on Redmi 5 Plus:

This isn't a bug (though some of you may already know this); it's related to copper oxides forming on the connector of the touchpanel. The fix is surprisingly easy - the most difficult part is popping off the metal back panel which is kept in place by little notches. A pry tool or the side of a pill blister pack can be used (or anything thin like a guitar pick). You need to eject the SIM tray, then start at either bottom corner and get something lodged between the trim (the usb port is a good place to start). Then gradually use something else to work your way up the sides of the device until it pops off. Do not use anything with too much surface hardness or you could damage the chassis materials.

The touchscreen connector is the one left of the fingerprint sensor and immediately above the battery. It's a wide rectangle and identical to one across from it on the right (the connector for the battery). You can either pop it off and reseat it back down (which is what I did) or clean the pins with some isopropyl (do NOT use water). You probably won't notice anything amiss with the pins; the oxides are largely invisible and will have built up as the copper pins oxidise with the air. Just re-seating the connector may disturb the surface oxides enough to fix the issue completely. It did for me but you're best cleaning it with a minute amount of isopropyl on a new toothbrush; allow it to evaporate and seat it back in place.

After doing this my Redmi 5 Plus behaves like it did brand new. No intermittent input freezes; no keyboard taps missed, no mis-registered swipes. It's back to normal. 24 hours and counting; the difference is unmistakable, night and day.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Guides, News, & Discu] ash549k:
I did it man and at first i thought it improved the touch screen but after a while i noticed touch screen non responsiveness all over so i think this is merely a placebo effect.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Guides, News, & Discu] droident:
Did you seat the connector fully down? Sometimes it appears like it's clicked into place but it hasn't.

The guy who posted the YouTube video for this said you need to clean the connector with alcohol (i.e isopropyl). I didn't, I think it's pot-luck that reseating the connector worked for me. Supposedly you do need to clean it. I'd suggest re-attempting with some isopropyl if you didn't already but I can say without a doubt it's worked for me. The screen is back to normal responsiveness here and it was a right pain the a- to use before. Not had even a hint of the old unresponsiveness; I can say with certainty it's not placebo now it's been 24 hours. I was getting tons of input freezes before; now not a single instance.

Guys does this method of unlock without losing data https://xdaforums.com/redmi-note-5/how-to/unlock-bootloader-losing-data-t3864667/amp/

still works for our device with MIUI 11?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] Skake:
honestly ... i have serious doubts that this method ever worked, when you unlock the bootloader the phone is automatically formatted and even if you find a way to skip formatting on boot, you won't be able to access the system. There is a reason if MIUI imposes date formatting and is mainly related to data encryption and device "security" now I don't understand what problems you have in formatting the device ... applications to reinstall the data that are present in the Xiaomi Cloud can be restored or downloaded via the website mi.com and then of course all Google-related data is restored ... now of course you will have your reasons but I don't see the problem, this formatting thing has always existed. clearly one unlocks the phone or to put a custom rom or to change the MIUI system ...
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] lorepingas:
Thanks for you response ?,I mainly need to take intact data partition because i didn't wanted to format everything (since I disabled MIUI services) just because i have some modded apps(like AeroWhatsapp that has buggy buckup service),but if it doesn't work I'll just reset it,thanks again

[Android Head-Units] elnarci:
Hi everyone.

I have a device (https://es.aliexpress.com/item/32911415845.html?spm=a219c.12010612.8148356.5.2a2aebeaOYrP6U) installed in my car running practically well except for a problem with radar warning applications that I can't hit sort out . I will describe the problem below:

When I listen to the radio, although the warnings of the radar application appear on the screen, the audio corresponding to that warning is not heard at all. However, if I listen to any other audio source, such as from an SD, from bluetooth or even from internet radio (TuneIn or others) the warning sounds of the radars are heard perfectly, and if I put the radio back on already I don't hear any until I turn it off.

I tried to download the radar applications (Radardroid and others) on the device to eliminate that it could be a problem on my mobile but nothing is solved. The same happens from the mobile, whether Android Auto is connected to the car screen or not, even when I want to share music from the mobile and in the music player of the phone I give it to share and if the car is active the Radio does not allow me to send anything.

It is as if the radio had preference over any other incoming sound, and curiously, only the audio of the radio is attenuated with the browser.

I think this behavior is quite strange and I don't know if it is due to a bad installation by the workshop or a device defect.

I don't know if someone has happened to him and if he could solve it.

Thanks in advance

hmm.. i have downloaded asus file manager, sandisk memory zone, and use inbuild rom file manager.

only sandisk memory zone can read it, but its show 1.8MB capacity. (mine 64GB)

so i began searching some article, and found some clue, they said it might caused by partition format (exfat,ntfs etc)

is that true?
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] kaem84:
I also confirm - there is a problem with sd card support. The phone wants to format it. When I connect the phone to the computer, it also does not show the card but only the internal memory of the phone.

-edit-

So I formatted the sd card over the phone and now there is the FAT32 file system - this is unacceptable because there is a limit of 4GB per file.

Kernel does not support the exFAT file system.

On the GENOM kernel, the sd card works without problems on exFAT
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] ZhuoFan:
try vfat

Thanks for the log btw

1. Installing the EdXposed library in three different recent versions for Xposed causes continuous interface restarts.

2. The phone starts with a very bright screen set, you need to dim manually, it is in autmatic mode - adjustment between the darkest and lightest screen settings looks like 25-75%.

3. Every time when the Gmail application checks for new e-mails, the phone plays the notification sound, even if there are no new messages. Sometimes the notification sound can be heard as nothing happens.

4. The flashlight shines VERY bright, much brighter as in MIUI, much brighter as in camera application. I'm afraid it might get damaged at the hardware level.

5. There is no way to set the BACK button to force applications to close. In general, I miss gesture for buttons.

6. There is no possibility to set older applications to fill the entire screen, to adjust to the screen aspect ratio, they work in 16: 9

7. It seems to me that the volume of the multimedia phone and the ringer is set too high.

8. Camera and other applications only record videos in 30fps, 4k is not available, the sound in the recordings is MONO. This is the fault of the settings in the file: media_profiles_V1_0.xml

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Kingjack479:
Hi all,

I have been trying to root my phone since this last saturday and have been unable to do it successfully. I am using TWRP recovery to install Magisk. I have tried it with the RMM bypass and the no verify too. I have tried it with RMM and no verify flashed and I have tried it without. I also tried Dr. Magens package and still the same issue. I noticed my device was running really slow and got extremely hot when I tried this way.

On one of my attempts I got, "Only official binaries are allowed to be flashed" When I went into download mode it said KGG state prenormal and my warranty was void, I think I tripped Knox. I did the RMM flash and these messages went away and I reflashed to stock android now I am looking to start over again

I flashed back to stock andriod and some people say you have to wait 7 days but I still have the OEM unlock option ticked. I would really like to root my phone.

I have an Imgur link but i have a new account so i cant post links. Please pm me or I will see if I can put it in the comments.

Any links or tips or anything is greatly appreciated.

Device info since i cant post links:

Model: SM-N960F

Android Version 10

Kernel Version 4.9.118-17594460

Knox Version 3.4.1 API level 30

Hello everybody!

I have some problems regarding the Moto G5s Plus xt1802 Brazilian version.

A while ago I used a havoc OS rom, and when trying to update, I had some complications because the rom didn't work very well, so I tried to go back to stock rom and block the bootloader again, only once again I had a problem and it was with the usb cable, in the middle of the process the cell phone was disconnected and with that, it didn’t block and I had a problem with it, because now I can’t block the bootloader or even unlock it because of that. And in the developer settings, the bootloader option is disabled, but in gray, I can't move it, and when I put the phone in bootloader mode, the cmd on the screen says that the bootloader is already unlocked.

Nor can I install any kind of customized rom, in any of them the same error.

If anyone can help me with this problem I will be very grateful.;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Neel:
Hi all

I am thinking of getting this phone when it is released in the uk. but i really only have one issue which i want your opinions on, and that is whats the typing like on the screen (i use a iphone at the mo and its really good) has anyone used both, if so are they the same.

any help on this would be great

Many thanks

Neel
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] omegaz:
No, they're not the same. With diamond it's quite pointless to type without stylus, because you'll make too many mistakes. I use full qwerty keyboard and stylus, works well.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] _Nomad_:
I to have both an iPhone and a Diamond and I can confirm that they're definitly not the same. The iphone is a lot better when typing, part of that comes from the larger screen but also the sensitivity. If you require typing a lot, I'd stick with the iphone or get a device that has a HW keyboard. Such as the upcoming touch pro.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] 205_lacoste:
I type without the styles, using full qwerty and that works fine for me. It also helps to do some registry tweaks on pressure settings of the touch screen. The iphone's touch interface is more responsive though.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] zetxek:
I use the compact qwerty with T9 activated and I find it quicker than using my previous phone (Nokia N73).

I have the ipod touch and I am not able to write with just one hand on it, and that bugs me... but with the diamond I can type with just one hand and the compact qwerty (2 letters per buttom). I think it's just a personal preference...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Spawn12:
First of all the Diamond has been officially released in the UK for about a good week or so....i have one.

Secondly i use the full qwerty keyboard and have absolutely no trouble typing withmy fingers...in fact its great. I use the stylus as well and it works well too.

I have an ipod touch and i find typing on that to be a chore, i make way too many mistakes on the ipod touch compared to the Diamond.

If you buy the phone then make sure you do the tweaks listed in the tweak thread or better still flash to the TLR rom and all thos tweaks above are enabled.

Typing on the Diamond is a joy, typing on the ipod touch isnt in my opinion.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] p3eps:
I have to agree - coming from an iPhone to a Diamond, I find the Diamond much better. I NEVER use the stylus at all and type with the full QUERTY. Its much quicker as all the symbols and numbers can be typed by holding another key for a few seconds rather than entering a new menu to do it.

I haven't adjusted the sensitivity at all, but I do find the Diamond needs a slightly harder touch... however it does work with a pair of gloves on (unlike the iPhone).

The only dissapointing thing with the Diamond typing that Apple have nailed is that if you're typing a word and press the key next to the one you want by mistake it doesnt auto correct it. If you press the wrong key on the Diamond, you just get the wrong word!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] s1rl4ncel0t:
I guess it will be just a metter of time until someone will figure out a software with the same capabilities as the one from iphone ;)
