[Other SmartWatches] rzolo:
Hello everyone, I'm here to ask for steps counter problem solution.

I have KW06 smartwatch device and my problem is that embeded steps counter has stopped detecting any step activity in both the embeded Health App and in Android onSensorChanged method in StepCounterListener class.

The pedometer service switch in setting is turned on.

I think that problem occurred after flashing modified ROM with SP Flash Tool. However after reflashing device with Stock ROM, the pedometer service still doesn't work.

And here is my question if you have any idea what could caused that problem.

I would be very grateful for any help! :)

PS: I've that problem on every KW06 device I have. ROM has been reflashed on every of them.

Hello everyone,

First of all, excuse my poor english. I'm going directly to the point: I've tried to flash the google GSI+GMS ("https://developer.android.com/topic/generic-system-image/releases"). Flashing vbmeta goes fine but, when I try to flash the system.img I receibe next message: "Invalind sparse image".

I've investigated and I found that the image is a raw image so I've converted to sparse image using "img2simg <input original image> <output sparse image>".

When I flashed the new sparse image everything looks fine (no sparse error and starts to copy first block) but flashing fails after a few seconds.

Here you can find the error messages:

For image in gsi+gms zip:

[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] arsenal74:
I have a 4XL and have noticed that it is not possible to change the Bluetooth settings under developer settings. For example I have Sony WH1000 M3s and whilst it connects using LDAC it defaults to ‘Best Effort’ for LDAC quality settings and cannot be changed. It also will not let me choose another codec such as APTX-HD.

My understanding is that on Pixels (well for the Pixel 3 at least) that best effort results in a lower bitrate than SBC? So this is potentially crippling thre audio quality.

Anybody else noticed this? If so, any solution?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Bologner:
Lucky you.

I just picked up a pair of V-Moda Crossfade 2 Wireless Codex cans, and I can't get any other codec besides SBC working via the Developer options.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] m+a+r+k:
Yes, I have same and noticed that.

Trying to use AptX HD also doesn't stick. You can do it in Developer Options by messing with other BlueTooth settings first to match what AptX HD would allow but the next time I connect my headphones it's gone back to LDAC.

I think the main problem is Sony's Headphones app which defaults to LDAC (of course as it's Sony's proprietary codec!) and lack of controls to use other codecs and settings.

In that app I have Sound Quality preference selected at the bottom which actually may be using a better quality setting, it just isn't reflected in what you see in the Developer Options settings.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] arsenal74:
Interesting, the LDAC issue might not be fixable but maybe removing the Sony app will allow aptx-hd to be selectable?

Btw, other droids are not much better. Samsung’s do let you change the setting but revert back to best effort every time you connect. Only the P30 pro seems to remember but then Huawei have put that option into the normal settings rather than leave it buried in developer settings.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] jah:
On the Samsung Note 10+ 5G now allows selection of best audio quality for LDAC, but the the connection quality between the Sony XM3s and the 10+ is very poor. All pointless.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] arsenal74:
Kind of begs the question as to how much the on paper advantage android has with LDAC and APTX-HD really counts in the real world.

Honestly, irrespective of codecs I actually think iPhones sound better over Bluetooth which is a massive shame and totally unnecessary.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] m+a+r+k:
Would the headphones even work without the app? I haven't tried.

Would they default to some built-in setting without the app to communicate with?

You go first! :)
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] arsenal74:
Headphones definitely work without the app, I have used them before on a previous phone and forgot to install it.

BTW everything works as it should the P30 pro, you do not even have to go into developer settings to change it.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] shaobocui:
I'm also unable to get my 4XL into 909/990 kbps mode, but I noticed that Pixel 4 XL seems to default to 606/660 kbps mode, which is more or less comparable to aptX HD(576 kbps). And I know for a fact that this is not an issue with the headphones or the app, since I get 909/990 when I connect the same headphones to Sony's Android devices with the app installed via LDAC Bluetooth connection.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] arsenal74:
Interesting, my 4xl defaults (and is stuck in) to best effort not 660 balanced mode.

I think on Pixels best effort is circa 330 kbps
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] m+a+r+k:
Always defaults to Best Effort here which is 330kbps for Pixel 3 according to https://www.soundguys.com/understanding-bluetooth-codecs-15352/

I can set it to something else and when I next go into Developer Options it's back to Best Effort! Same with setting the codec to something else.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] shaobocui:
Pixel 4's best effort seems to be 606/660, not 303/330. At least that's what the bug report says. If the 3 only connects at 303/330, that's gonna be a problem when using new BT5.0 stuff from Sony. They're using an MTK chip for BT5.0, so no aptX, only SBC, AAC and LDAC on BT5 stuff from Sony.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] m+a+r+k:
That's interesting and encouraging, thanks for that.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] arsenal74:
That is interesting, sound guys testing of the 3 and 3a indicated 330 for best effort.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] arsenal74:
Out of interest, how have you been able to tell the bitrate it used for best effort?

i was under the impression that this is relative to the device you connect.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Acbaines:
Hi All,

There is a fix. I have the Sony WH 1000mx3 headphones and the One Plus 7 pro 12/256 fully updated. Enable developer options in settings on your Android phone if you haven't already done so. Remove then reinstall the Sony connect app (your previous settings will remain after the reinstall). Follow the prompt from the Sony app to connect your headphones by bluetooth. When the headphones are connected go to settings, Bluetooth and Device connection, then Bluetooth. Under available media devices you should see your Sony WH 1000XM3 headphones active. Click the settings icon to the right. Turn off HE audio: LDAC.

Open your preferred music streaming application (Tidal) and play music, verify that the headphones are operating. Go to system, then Developer options. Under Networking scroll down to the Bluetooth settings. The Bluetooth audio LDAC Codec: playback quality has now defaulted to Streaming Optimized for Audio Quality. You can now adjust the Audio Codec, Sample rate, and Bits Per Sample to your preference. The settings will stay and won't need to be reapplied.

I hope this helps.

[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] clwclw:
bumping this thread, because I was looking for an answer, this was the closest to it.

I decided to dump the logs with adb, and found that my Pixel 4XL, latest and greatest updates as of May 2020, is negotiating 990 LDAC, with the 1000XM3s.

I can use the dev options to push it around to 330/660/990.

No matter what setting I use prior, if I go to auto, it will negotiate to 990, which is pretty awesome. I have not tested to see if it drops off if you walk away from the phone, but given the BT range I get with LDAC, I'm assuming not.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] m+a+r+k:
That's good news, thank you for that.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] nakedtoes:
How to know the bit rate is 990 using best adaptive?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] arsenal74:
I think some devices such as soundbars may show the link speed. Unless I am missing something there is no way to tell for your WH1000 M3s for example.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
Developer settings while listening to music with LDAC or dump log over ADB (like the previous guy wrote)
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] arsenal74:
Cannot comment on the dump as I've never done that but all Dev settings will show you is best effort and no rate?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
yea jsut noticed, that you can select best quality, if it doesn't change, it should be fine, otherwise it's easy to get logs even unrooted
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Kamilake:
On the Samsung S10 5G all bluetooth settings in developer options work fine,

but on my Z Fold 2 it doesn't work at all and I have the same problem as arsenal74

What's the difference between the two?

It looks like an Android issue, not a Pixel issue.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] arsenal74:
Bump. In just picked up some M4s to usae with my Note 20 Ultra and this issue still persists.

Selecting LDAC is fine but it is stuck on best effort still.

You can select the audio quality option but I do not think it actually changes as the audio does not pause when you change it. The only phone I have used where it does work is a Huawei and when you pick best quality the audio pauses briefly as it switches.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Volosity:
I had this problem for about a hour today. heres what i did. go update your apps in Samsung. Then go get Fun Devs - Video Mp3 Converter. I had a few lower bit songs. when they came on it was terrible on the speaker. it was from being a rawer audio file .m4a. i converted them to 320kbr but u can go slightly higher with that app to get back to crisp music. sony and there experiment with codexs caused this raw file being ass to process. :) other than that. my bit rat is still at its lowest in dev tools. but its 320 coming out and not 120kbr or less.View attachment 5211413
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
You can't. It uses the best bitrate that conditions permit. If it's 330 you'll hear it for sure on anything higher than a MP3.

My 10+ using the Buds+ when it uses SSC is auto set to best effort by default. No way to change it in Developer options. It's giving full bitrate thru put unless you move too far away.

After the lattest firmware update tonight for the Buds+ I'm good with the SSC codec. Doubt LDAC will give much more bang for the bt buck.

These little devils sound damn good for bt.

Bad news is there's only one SSC headphone set if you want that.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] arsenal74:
I picked up a P40 pro recently and LDAC works flawlessly. The LDAC settings are in the Bluetooth menu rather than developer settings, 990kbps works fine and the selection also sticks.

What is this madness??
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] martynas:
I use samsung z flip3. It was same problem that in developer options it is defaulting to optimized connection.

But when I have installed sony music center and in options selected audio quality prefered on device after restarting phone now in developer options it is 990kb streaming is a default when connected to sony xm2.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] vedamrw:
Thank you! This is the solution. After setting it in Sony Music, can see that it keeps at "prioritize sound quality (990kbps)" in developer tools now. Although it's so weird that Sony hides the LDAC bitrate setting in another app instead of the headphones app.

Hacked Beta

They are hacked, the source of the beta said as much on their site, they only way too get the official beta was to download the beta application (windows only) from LG and update your phone to the beta. Using their software to install the official beta also gives one the option to roll back to pie. If you install the beta this way you will also be able to get the final version OTA. It looks like the official Android 10 for Sprint has started to roll out to users, ahead of the other US carriers, which is quite a change for Sprint as they are usually last, the other carriers should follow fairly soon, with the unlocked and Amazon variants following lastly.
[LG G8 Guides, News, & Discussion] antintin:

[LG G8 Guides, News, & Discussion] falkon114:
So, my phone updated to this last night and I'm pretty pissed about it.

The theme I paid for is no longer compatible, so that's neat. The recents app switcher is now oriented horizontally instead of vertically apple style so you can only see 1 or 2 apps at a time while scrolling vs like 5+. And it also has frequently used app tiles in the switcher I guess? And you can't edit or change those at all which is ****ing annoying as all hell.

And if you press the back button from said screen, it takes you to the stock home launcher... Instead of nova which is my preferred, so then you have to hit the home button again to go to that one.

and the "new second screen" system setting that I could change before that now doesn't even open, despite still showing in settings.

Is there a way to roll back from this? These things literally are making me consider ditching the phone and moving back to my V30.
[LG G8 Guides, News, & Discussion] jaqual:
And there's no way to remove the "most used" apps from the recent apps screen, which includes a shortcut to the home launcher, as though we need it.

Annnnd they added a "call screener" app which you can't disable and gives me a notification every time I get a call.

Annnd the quick settings turned blue when "night mode" was enabled by default and now I can't change them

Annnd I turned on gestures so it would at least minimize the annoying white space at the bottom of the screen but it randomly reverts back to navigation bar and gives me a notification "gesture settings have changed" or something

Annnd the navigation bar stays white unless you're in night mode and I don't have the option to hide it anymore

[Honor 9 Lite Questions & Answers] neilw12345:
Hello,

After switching on my honor 9 lite this morning, after an update, when I enter my 4 digit pin nothing happens, it just sits there doing nothing waiting for input. If I leave it, it just goes to sleep.

It's as if this update is now not auto entering my pin after 4 digits and is waiting for me to press the tick/enter button on the phone. Except there is no tick/enter button of course. It lets me enter, I think, 8 or 10 digits, and will then auto accept the pin (saying 'incorrect pin'). Except my pin is 4 digits. Always has been. Never been an option to enter more digits.

Anyone else the same or got a solution? I can't really reset it because all my authenticators are on it and it'll take forever to rebuild - not to mention this will probably just happen again.

Thanks.
[Redmi 7A Questions & Answers] tremblotin:
Hello world.

I bought a Xiaomi Redmi 7A with Global ROM, direct from China, and I can't turn it on. The splash screen appears and the phone restarts in a loop. I tried to make a flash via Fastboot, but I can't do it. I also tried the MiFlash tool, but it doesn't work either.

I'm even ready to try very complex things if necessary, because I bought it directly from China, so it would be a nightmare to send back.

Using Fastboot, the software told me that the bootloader is locked.

I looked for tutorials on the internet, but each time I came across tutorials that could only be done if the phone started (in this case, it was to enable USB debugging). :(

Thank you by advice.
