[Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers] gene95:
Hello,

is it possible to change keyboard layout while using external (hardware) keyboard in EMUI desktop mode? I am planning to buy NexDock 2 and connect my P30 Pro to it. However, they only have US keyboard layout available.

Is it somehow possible to change the layout of the external keyboard (like on Windows) so you can type foreign language characters, for example German letters like ä, ö, ü...?
[Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers] gene95:
SOLVED

You can change the keyboard layout using External Keyboard Helper app. You are able to set a certain keyboard combination in order to quickly switch languages. For example, you can set Alt+Space or Shift+Space combinations to instantly change external keyboard language. Alternatively, changing the keyboard language on your phone using the keyboard app also changes the layout of your external keyboard. However, using External Keyboard Helper app seems like a better solution because you can change languages quickly with shortcuts without touching your phone.

Greetings

I got myself a galaxy note 10 plus and I am having issues in aptx Bleutooth as I am using my Noble Audio Falcon True wireless iems which supports aptx

I went to developer options and chose aptx, and once I leave that setting screen and go back to it . I see that its not aptx but SBC why does this keep changing

How can I ensure I have best bluetooth playback with my falcon and galaxy note 10 plus

Developer Options menu backout problem is that The other codecs and their options are there, but they don't "stick" when you leave that menu screen (always reverts/defaults to SBC / 16-bit / 44.1 Khz)

How can i get the highest quality of bluetooth playback from my Note 10 Plus

Kindly please help

so, my phone was MIUI 10 , i decided to go 11, so i downloaded and installed via recovery.

thing is, when i rebooted and tried to flash magisk the recovery - TWRP - asked for a password, which i didn't put..

why is that?

is any ROM installation does that? is it the recovery's fault?

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] arik100:
i guess you meant for this?

11. If you experience a situation where you have set a PIN, but the recovery asks for a password (or vice versa, etc), then you must ask your ROM devs to fix their ROM by applying this patch. This is not a recovery issue, so please do not ask us to "fix" it. Alternatively, you can always open a terminal in the recovery (or via "adb shell") and run "twrp decrypt password".

1. thank you.

2. i dont have orangeFox though i guess it's the same
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] DarthJabba9:
No, I am sure he was referring to points #6, #7, and #8.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] arik100:
i was at stock rooted miui, with custom recovery.

just flashed the eu miui via recovery , of course i did format data and got to this state.

now i just did format data, and instead of installing rom rebooting and then root, i did install rom and root in the same session.

probably if i enter the recovery it will still give me the encrypt message? dunno, maybe because i didn't re-install the recovery..
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] mr.badman:
Same happened with me. Whatever you do your recovery is not gonna decrypt, i tried everything that i can found but nothing worked.

This is only when you flash 10.0 roms no 9.0 rom is gonna cause problem, still searching for a fix. Dont even know what causing this, maybe because it is indian variant or i dont know. Anybody....???
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] Roster42:
Same issue with an Android 10 Rom.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] DarthJabba9:
Really! Which OrangeFox version did you try, which did not decrypt?

---------- Post added at 10:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:37 AM ----------

Did you use OrangeFox recovery?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] arik100:
i used TWRP

why?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] DarthJabba9:
Because OrangeFox recovery can decrypt quite fine.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] Roster42:
I have tried everything, si yes I have tried with orangeFox
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] DarthJabba9:
I should like to see the OrangeFox logs (they will be in the /sdcard/Fox/logs/ folder), because I am yet to see a single situation where OrangeFox cannot decrypt (especially if you formatted data).
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] Roster42:
Thank you for your answer. I will provide this tonight sir.

The thing is, if I format /data of course I can use my internal storage, but if I re flash the ROM, it will encrypt again. It's like a loop.

I heard it's an issue with android 10, recovery don't know how to manage it.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] DarthJabba9:
Yes, the ROM will encrypt again, unless you disable forced-encryption before flashing it (there is a setting in OrangeFox for that). However, lavender has serious issues if it is not encrypted (pin/password/fingerprint will not work). So I do not recommend disabling forced-encryption.

The point is that OrangeFox will automatically decrypt when you boot it up, so that the recovery has full access to internal storage and the data partition. Since 99.9% of lavender devices are encrypted, there is absolutely no problem running OrangeFox on them. This is the best you can hope for. What else would you want?

But if you really insist on running the device unencrypted (you will be running your device with absolutely no security if you do this), then you need to do the following;

1. Format (not just wipe) the data partition;

2. Reboot OrangeFox;

3. Go to the OTA settings, and tick "Disable Forced-Encryption";

4. Flash the ROM;

5. Boot the ROM.

All things being equal, the ROM will remain unencrypted - but you can kiss goodbye to any possibility of having any security on your ROM. If anybody gets a hold of your phone, he will have full access to everything on it, without any restriction of any kind. Clearly, you really don't want this situation, so I am not sure why you would want the phone to be unencrytped.

Note: some ROMs will simply ignore all efforts to disable forced-encryption, and will happily encrypt anyway. If you have such a ROM, then I would add "4A" to the above list - "Flash magisk before booting the ROM"
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] Roster42:
I just saw the option OTA -*> disable forced-encryption. I will try that if I have some time this week, if I don't find other work around.

And just to be clear, yes I want my phone encrypted. Yes I know security is important.

But what I prefer is to have up to date ROM with security patchs and new features.

Because my recovery (OrangeFox and TWP) wasn't able to decrypt my phone I wasn't able to wipe cache and delvik and to do updates.

The thing is there is a unknown password asked when I boot in recovery (I tried every operations I have found on every forums).

Will give some updates later on this thread.

Again, thanks for your answers.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] DarthJabba9:
As I have said, OrangeFox is most definitely able to decrypt. I am yet to come across a single lavender ROM where OrangeFox has not been able to decrypt (and I have tested on virtually all Q ROMs out there) - unless there is something that you are doing (or not doing) , or (which would be very strange indeed) there is something about your own specific phone that makes it particularly impervious to OrangeFox decryption in a way that the phones of several thousands of OrangeFox lavender users are not.

I tried yesturday a clean install, still having the same issue with this ROM : https://xdaforums.com/redmi-note-7/development/rom-havoc-os-2-6-t3938288

I have tried to :

- Format data

- Reboot Recovery

- Wipe all

- Reboot Recovery

- Flash ROM

- Boot ROM (encryption done)

- Reboot recovery OrangeFox : Still asking a password

I tried also to disable forced-encryption with the same step and it's not changing anything.

Is that an issue with the ROM (HavocOS 3.0) ?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] DarthJabba9:
Did do you anything else between these two steps ;

- Boot ROM (encryption done)

[ ??? ]

- Reboot recovery OrangeFox : Still asking a password

If you did nothing in-between those two steps, then I would imagine that the issue is with the ROM (probably its device tree).

BTW: I should also like to see the recovery logs.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] Roster42:
When ROM boot for the first time it get encrypted, when the encryption process is finished the phone reboot to system and then the android startup process is starting like a new fresh phone. So I just press volume up + shutdown to go in recovery mode and then it asking me a password.

So no I havn't done anything more, I think.

Thank you anyway for your answers.

I think I will go on others ROM, this one seems broken.

I am not the only one havn't this issue.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] DarthJabba9:
Ok, I have now flashed this ROM (Havoc-OS-v3.2-20200213-lavender-Official.zip) and I have encountered absolutely no problem with it.

Indeed, I first of all dirty-flashed it over Lineage 17.1 unofficial (by AmulyaX). I expected that I would be forced to format at that point. But the ROM booted fine, remained rooted, updated some stuff from the Play Store, etc. I then rebooted to recovery, and everything was fine - not asked for password, or anything. And, of course, the device was still encrypted, as expected.

Next, I formatted data, and wiped dalvik/cache, and booted the ROM again. It booted quite fine, and encrypted the device, as expected. I then rebooted to recovery, and everything was perfectly fine - not asked for password, or anything, and OrangeFox decrypted fine.

In short, everything is behaving precisely as expected. I am quite unable to reproduce your problem.

Conclusion: I can find nothing wrong with the ROM - and the logs show no evidence of any problem.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] mr.badman:
Still, not able to decrypt recovery. Maybe i am doing something wrong about decrypting. But, i am stuck. Attaching the logs. Please help.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] DarthJabba9:
Yes, you are doing something wrong.

You are using an obsolete version of OrangeFox

- "[OrangeFox Version]: R10.0-1", built on "Mon Jul 22 07:03:53 BST 2019".

This has been superseded by at least 3 releases.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] mr.badman:
Same with me. No problem with rom, because happened with me on every 10.0 rom (9.0 does fine) even on xiaomi.eu and mi globe, both latest version.

Same here.

I have passed so much time for a wrong version, that's crazy and sad ...

I saw you have tested the ROM, thank for you time, seeing you trying to help me made me tried one more time :)

Hi fellow XDA members.

My radio GS MCU died due to hardware issues (broken and in not reparable state lanes due my own fault) and i'm searching for a replacement mainboard. Not the SoM with the CPU/MEM/EMMC

It's a VW DVD GS model which i upgraded from PX3 to PX30 to PX5. (Android 5.1, 6.0, 8.0, 9.0) I have contacted several sellers in China but they all reply they cannot deliver me a replacement part due to the age of the hardware. When trying to figure out i noticed that GS still creates mainboards but with an updated layout and chips but the connection ports are still the same. Not sure why they wont deliver me a replacement part.

Does anyone of you have a broken unit but the mainboard OK that i can buy?

Or let me know how i can in contact with the GS Factory. I tried to contact them using their address on the website of the factory but never received a reply.

The pictures included show you the board which is defective.

FlatcablePort layout:

2 ports for the SDcards

1 port for the LCD and its buttons

1 port for the DVD drive.

Thank you for who can help me out in my quest to fix the radio :).

Compatible boards:

GS, CHG, XRC-602-MAIN

I'm from the Netherlands/Belgium.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] marchnz:
Looks like a GS board :) Have you had a look on aliexpress, I see there are a number of resellers selling main boards.

The other option is to try Xtrons, you'll need their model code however. I was able to get a GS board out of xtrons quoting their model number a couple of years ago.

Also, consider an HA board from Dasaita - as long as the rear connector layout is the same, you should be ok.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] d5stick:
That it is a GS board, that i already knew :P It was delivered with a PX3 5.1 board and i updated the MCU in the past.

The seller who sent me the device was contacted but he blocked me off with the message: They dont make that radio anymore so no repair parts. Which i think is a BS story but hey who can blame them. Why selling parts when you can sell a complete unit..

I tried several resellers but almost all denied or didnt answer. They only sell complete sets. I'm only able to find the board from the Dasaita, which is not compatible with my system due to the missing ports for the second SD and DVD player. (The one i found on Aliexpress)

Xtrons was the first and only one to reply willing to help but due to Corona i only get an confirmation around march.

I do not have a model number of their device which is the same as the one i have. I did sent all the info i had with some hope they can hook me up.

I found the same system but the reseller sees my messages (Aliexpress lets you know) but did not respond.

Link: https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/4000175298519.html

It's the same radio with the Android 5.1 manual, the seller only replaced the SoM's and selling them for the price of the newer systems.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] marchnz:
Here's one that might be close enough https://a.aliexpress.com/_snm0Pb

Over priced though, you might be able to negotiate.

What happened with the mainboard, possibly repairable?
[MTCD Android Head Units General] d5stick:
The board is beyond repairable, i made a screw up and its damaged badly.

A response was received by the seller of the same device stating that they do not sell parts.

I found this one, which meets the requirements and contacted the seller.

https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/32879522002.html

This one also denied.

Update 12-02-2020.

I figured out that a CHG board is also compatible.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] d5stick:
Nobody has a board available? I contacted several resellers but all did reply that they did not sent out parts and even the seller where i did get the unit from denied to sent a repair part and wanted me to order a complete new unit..

dears, please, post which partitions to backup in twrp to get fullly restored system and data?
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] ktmom:
The default TWRP settings under "Backup" will give you a nandroid that should allow you to restore when changing roms or a failed "something" install. Generally "Boot," "System," and "Data" are what you should backup. A more comprehensive device backup might include other partitions.
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] dimdimdim:
Okay, thanks! That is pretty basic.

whether there are other important partitions to backup at least once?

And why system image partition is checked for backup by default? Do we need it at all? - at least for me backup even can't be finished with that system image checked. So, I unchecked it to succeed with the backup.
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] ktmom:
Take a look at team TWRP's What should I back up in TWRP?
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] dimdimdim:
if that system image backup reason applies to the custom-to-custom restore for moto z? -

I know that for other devices twrp (or custom versions of it) disables dm-verity check by default.

so, the question also is if that applies to moto z too?
