Welcome to the Lenovo Z6 Pro community!

To make it short, this phone has great hardware, but not so good software and support from Lenovo, hence the low price. If you recently received it, here is in a nutshell what you should know about ROMs :

- There are 2 type of official Stock roms which are subject to official OTA. They can always be flashed to upgrade or reset phone by using Qfil even with locked bootloader ; making the Z6 Pro virtually unbrickable :

o Chinese Rom: the most up to date (11.1.105 is Android P; 11.5.x is Android Q). High performance and stable, kept up to date; but only English available for system; need to use apps for more languages and bypass notification restrictions.

o Global or RoW (rest of the world) 11.0.405: Considered a cheap initiative outsourced to a third party to sell phones internationally. It has not been updated for a while and possibly won’t be anymore. It is Android P based, but stable and includes many languages.

- Then there are now very good custom roms thanks to Lucchetto! First really good and stable of them is RevengeOS. Obviously, they require unlocking BL and installing TWRP. Many guides available to help doing that. More custom roms are available: Havoc, AICP, CRdroid, LineageOS, Pixel experience plus… available here + and on telegram group.

All have all hardware features working including all 5 lenses thank to stock Cam app ported to Custom roms also by Lucchetto!

For more info, read threads here, join Telegram group or ask question here.

Enjoy, be grateful and stay safe!

Hi!

I am looking feedbacks on good glass protection for Z6pro.

I bought one from Aliexpress but the shape for the front cam was a small hole. Hard to place exactly well and in strong light condition it adds a halo to the photos.

Anyone happy with a good item?
[Lenovo Z6 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] benjieb:
Along with a few other Z6Pro owners I have tested many Gcam versions for Zui 11.5.x or custom roms (Android 10).

So far we have spotted 2 very decent options that can use all 5 lenses of the phone:

- UltraCVM_v4 : UltraCam by UltraM8

- HC-7.3.018-v1.1 : HyperCam by rz_end

None of these are specifically designed for Z6pro but they do the job.

Please share feedbacks / best settings / other Gcam for Z6pro here!

Thanks

[Redmi Note 8 Accessories] gohan456:
hi, for some reason this redmi logo / font on the bottom of the screen really annoys me. I'm looking for a tempered glass with black borders which could hide this. most got a thin border or cut out which still shows the logo.
[Redmi Note 8 Accessories] mrmazak:
Is it possible to just cover the cutout with .... Nail polish or paint?
[Redmi Note 8 Accessories] gohan456:
I tried permanent marker under the tempered glass but it's like writing on on greasy surface. small black piece of paper but it lifted the tempered glass and made a bubble. I think paint under glass will get also a bubble, paint on glass proably wash out over time.

now I ordered this one: https://aliexpress.com/item/4000339283735.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.794b4c4dVtRKYE

if you check the feedback there are some photos of not applied tempered glass for note 8, which has black border which looks like 2mm thicker than my glass, I think that might hide it.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mronezc:
Hi guys,Have a nice weekend, I would like to ask you a question, our team is maintaining some old model projects, and we want to make the most of these devices, so our team created the ROM provided for a fee, but these ROMs are very bad Frequent leaks prevent our team members from continuing maintenance. I want to ask you how to encrypt the ROM. Once again, I have learned about this. The first one uses the doVerify method. The verification logic is to read serialno from / proc / cmdline. Then pass the formatted format of serialno and current time (accurate to hour) into the encrypt method for encryption. The second one is to put the motherboard id into the verdon partition for encryption. I do n’t know how to implement these two methods. If someone will teach me, of course I can pay the fee within my ability,thank you all

Question about websites asking for my location. We have two Note 10+ phones and anytime a website asks for the location the pop-up appears asking for the ok but the phone never allows either option to be picked. I always have to use the back button to clear the pop-up off the screen. We've had both Note 10+'s for months and it's never allowed us to select an option. How do I make the thing work? Using Chrome as the browser and everything is fully updated. I checked the feature in the default Samsung browser and it works fine, but I want to issue Chrome. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've done that too and still doesn't allow me to pick either option in the pop-up.

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] windomearle:
Hi guys!!!

I have a rooted first generation Pixel running stock Android 10. I would like to take a physical image of the device using ADB.

If I command "mount" in ADB shell, I get for example the following line:

/dev/block/sda35 on /data type ext4

If I image /dev/block/sda35 with dd and netcat, I get an image but the file based encryption comes in the way and the files are useless.

So if I would like to take a clear text (physical) image of this device, what should I image? Or maybe the other way of asking this is, what is the best image I can expect through ADB with root privileges?

Thanks!!!
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] NZedPred:
Any particular reason you don't want to backup through TWRP?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] windomearle:
The main reason is that I am interested to know how this is done manually through ADB.

I am also interested how the file based encryption works and what kind of information I can get out from the device with a best possible image.

So for me this is only an experiment, I dont have any valuable data on the device :)
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] NZedPred:
dd allows you to get a bit-perfect copy of the partition. You are seeing the contents exactly as they are. For Android to view the actual files (well, those that are encrypted, not necessarily everything is encrypted with FBE) it has to decrypt them, which requires the key. Additionally, as you can have multiple users on a device, each of the user's files have a separate key.

In the old days of encrypted partitions, there was a metadata partition or similar that you could get the key from. Under FBE, I'm not sure how to do it, but the principle would be similar. So the only way to get a clear text copy of the files using dd is to decrypt.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] windomearle:
Do have any knowledge how Android does this decryption in practise?

When I imaged /dev/block/sda, which should be the ”raw” memory device, my phone was open (passcode was entered to gain access to the phone) and the device remained in this state through the imaging.

Still this raw device is FBE, as I would expect actually. So Android does the decryption somehow to the mounted partition, but I dont know how.

Actually I can see that my root directory / comes from a device /dev/root, but in ADB shell I cannot find this device.

Maybe the next thing I will try is to use ADB when my phone is booted to TWRP and TWRP does the decryption...

In any case, Thanks for your answer!
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] NZedPred:
I don't know the details, but one key point about decrypting is that it does not change the actual content on disk. Think of decrypting as a translation service. There is something on disk you want to read, so the translator turns it into the plain text view. Similarly if you want to store some data, the translation service converts it into the encrypted view to be stored on disk. This is all done as the files are requested, and is transparent to any app. (Otherwise if you decrypted the disk and 'pulled the plug', you could go in and get the plain text content, which would defeat the purpose of encryption).

So doing this in TWRP won't make any difference.

Can you recommend a head unit for my 2014 Kia Soul? It's double DIN.

What I'm hoping for is something that I can plug my phone into and it will show an Android interface, like what you'd find in newer cars that show you apps on the screen once you plug in. Sirius XM support is a plus.

I know there's a lot of crap on eBay so I'd like to avoid that and ask here instead what's worthwhile.

Thank.
[Android Head-Units] matrixx1:
Hi if you want the best experience choose something with px6 4gb of ram, and dsp for better sound and 64gb storage.

It comes with Easyconnect preloaded which can mirror you android/iphone to the screen, but you can download the app.

You can use android auto and carplay both wired and wireless on this device as well. For android auto buy HeadUnit Reloaded app, which works wireless and wired but only android auto, for carplay you need to buy a dongle for 30 USD if only wired, or~75 USD if wireless carplay. The dongle also supports android auto but only wired.

I sent you a link in PM about a product which i would recommend. look around, but only on aliexpress, forget about ebay/amazon as they sell devices with much lower specs for a higher price mostly

ok it was just a suggestion sometimes aliexpress language is in russianbc of 4pda froum, but my google translate does it job and i dont realize its originally in russian, sorry.

Anyways you should choose whatever you find suitable for you. I live in EU to us delivery is approx 6-12 days max. I have ordered already 2 of the chinese devices and they work without any issue. Of course you can go for kenwood or some branded stuff for more than double the price and bad display quality in terms of resolution. If you choose something from ali i would go for something with at least 4gb and px6 cpu

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] danielfrancisarthurs:
Currently from what I have seen and experienced there is no fully functioning TWRP for latest One UI 2.1 yet that successfully boots custom GSI/ROMs without tampering with the TWRP. The latest TWRP on xda is not updated for latest firmware yet so if you was to flash and use it you will run into many problems when booting custom firmware e.g broken camera. Your best bet is to wait until further news has been updated on xda for a newer TWRP.

I've had my galaxy s9 from new and have noticed issues with the sound that have recently manifested.

It is to do with using my music player,whatever music I listen to now plays with the volume increasing and decreasing. It's not extreme but I can hear it and it ruins my listening experience.

I've cleared all my cache,deleted apps that may be effecting it and rebooted. I even did a factory reset as a last resort but the problem continues.
