[Moto G7 Play Questions & Answers] BobbyBlunt:
So I have been keeping up with everything. Twrp, root, GSIs, etc. I am currently stock rooted. One of the most useful tools for me at work is DriveDroid. It makes it easy to carry a few different bootable images on my phone instead of trying to stash a bunch of USB drives at work and hope they dont get moved. As it stands DriveDroid is not working for me. I've read it could be the kernel, and I've read that it could be the rom. Can anyone currently running a GSI that is rooted tell me if DriveDroid works? Make sure it works and doesn't just run (boot a distro or even the test drivedroid gives you). If it does work, then I can rule out the kernel and blame it on the stock rom.

I would just install a GSI myself and test it, but seeing as so many of you are already running a GSI, I assumed it would be easier to ask the nice people in the community as opposed to having to redo my phone yet again.

Thank you in advance. Any input is much appreciated

Edit: I bit the bullet and flashed a GSI. There were other things I wanted to play with. Drivedroid does not work :(

[Nokia 6.1 (2018) Themes, Apps, and Mods] taalojarvi:
Information

HMD Global ships Android with the stock MusicFX equalizer app which is pretty limited in terms of functionality. This guide aims to assist you to install AudioFX equalizer sourced from LineageOS 16.1 on your Nokia 6.1/7 Plus/ 6.1 Plus which will provide you with slightly better control over how your music sounds.

Disclaimer

AudioFX is meant to be distributed with LineageOS and not meant to be used with other configurations. Since this is so, the functionality of the app is unpredictable and may be rendered broken after a future OS update. There is little that I can do to mitigate these failures. However, I encourage users to experiment and figure things out for themselves if the app does break. Certain Custom ROMS and Audio players ship with their Equalizers and these may interfere with the functioning of AudioFX. Therefore I encourage users to test using close-to-stock ROMs or Audio players without built-in equalizers.

Prerequisites

Android Version 9.0

Few minutes of your spare time

Instructions

Force Stop all audio playback apps.

Go to settings -> Apps & Notifications -> See all apps -> Toggle "Show System" in the three-button menu

Locate "MusicFX"

Clear storage, cache and then force stop and disable the MusicFX app.

Download and Install the AudioFX app linked with this post.

Open up a music app of your choice. I'll be using Spotify here.

Go to Spotify Settings -> Equalizer. You will be greeted with a small pop up asking to select default equalizer. Select "AudioFX" and set to always open.

(OPTIONAL) Disable Battery Optimization for AudioFX.

Reboot your phone.

Test if your EQ is functional by toggling the EQ On/Off switch within AudioFX and observing if the audio sounds different.

Bugs

Sometimes there are multiple entries for AudioFX in the prompt that asks you select default EQ. Select the first option in this case.

Other times, EQ doesn't function at all. I do not know how to fix this. Feel free to experiment and report your findings on this thread.

Contributers

AudioFX is part of LineageOS Source

This port was developed by @GchildT

His support thread is available here

Hit thanks if this post helped you!

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Empgamer:
Well, I thought I'd done everything right here. Obviously not.

I have a HTC TyTn II which I downloaded the 6.1 ROM for from the site. Prior ro upgrading I did a back up using Sprite. I have the back ups on noth PC and Storage card.

After I did the upgrade I restored using Sprite back up and got a message saying the back up was made on a different system and could cause problems. I went ahead and really messed up. The device locked at the boot stage after the restore but luckily binned all its data and started again but was wiped.

While I could enter all the info/settings again it willl be a pain and I am wondering if there is a way to now restore from the back up (which i only did earlier using the same Sprite and everything)?? I have looked all over the place for some answers but seem to be getting more confused???

Also my sprite was on the HTC disc and is WM 2005 version. Shouls I get/be using 6.2.2????
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] anoano:
A search found this:

http://xdaforums.com/search.php?searchid=14582521

I tried the same with Sprite ROM upgrade option (full version) but I had to reinstall my apps manually.

Hope it helps and good luck.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Empgamer:
Believe me I did loads of searches :-( That link doesn't go to a post? I'm 90% certain that I should have gone through a process of getting an upgrade file made BEFORE I did the ROM upgrade. Case of RTFM!!! God knows why I didn't RTFM in this case!! So engrossed on installing this, creating that etc I just asssumed that, having a back up on Sprite, I could just Restore after a ROM upgrade. WRONG!!!!!

No major problems as all the Outlook stuff will synch from there and luckily I did back ups of all my data in SPB Wallet, Phat Notes and List Pro. Just a bit of a pain wityh going through all the settings etc again with e-mail, Bluetooth, wifi and preferences. Still, at least it'll be a clean system (ish).

I'm still pondering if it's worth upgrading to Sprite 6.2.2 instead of the freebie WM 2005 version that came with the HTC.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] frankz22:
I would recommend upgrading, had nothing but problems with the free one.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] balanga1:
Hi,

Not sure if I'm in the correct forum, so apologies if this is the wrong one. Please redirect me as necessary.

I've never really delved into smartphones, but was trying to undelete some SMS msgs, but found I need to run a deep scan to see if they could be retrieved. To do a deep scan I was told I need to root the device. Tried KingoROOT but that was unable to because I believe I have a locked bootloader. Not sure if that is true because I do

not use a SIM from THREE. There is no OEM unlock option in the developer options, so don't know if it's possible to unlock the bootloader.

Any advice on rooting would be appreciated, although I do not want to wipe the device as that would prevent me from recovering the deleted SMS as I understand it.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] nevertechdose:
If I'm not mistaken, all Galaxy devices come with a locked bootloader since 2017 but can eventually be unlocked with the OEM option you mention. For that to happen though, certain requirements need to be met.

I know you said you own a Galaxy A3 but all these devices are so similar, so even though I have a Galaxy A7 you could still give these steps a try to get the OEM unlock option on your device:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=82049513&postcount=6

Be aware that you may want to follow the steps starting from the 2nd point, as flashing a firmware via Odin will delete all your data and that might defeat the purpose of your rooting needs.

If the trick does not work for you, give it a day or two as stated in the post and try again (starting from the 2nd bullet point, of course)

I hope this helps! If you have any questions let me know :)
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] balanga1:
Does this depend on which Android version is being used? I have 6.0.1 with Android security patch level 1 August 2017.

I tried to follow the steps in the link but the steps 6 & 7 are a little unclear. Not sure about date and time after the reboot at the end of step 6.

It says:-

After the phone has rebooted, your date and time should be reset to the current time

Does this mean the reset is done automatically by the system, or should it be done manually?
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] Fire1511:
nothing changes should work with all versions of Android
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] nevertechdose:
As Fire58 stated, the steps should work even if you are on Android Marshmallow (6).

Also yeah sorry, I'll edit that. The date and time should be reset automatically by the system to the current time after the reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] balanga1:
This is how I iterpreted the instructions:-

Not sure if my interpretation is correct... but I didn't manage to get the correct time reset after the restart marked above.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] nevertechdose:
Yes, seems about right. Also, are you using a SIM card on your phone?
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] balanga1:
Not at the moment. Also, I have Flight mode set on if that makes any difference...
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] nevertechdose:
Oh I see... So date stuff can only be reset to current time if you have cellular service available, so having no SIM card is causing your time to not be automatically set by the system after the first restart; also I'd suggest not using airplane mode once you manage to get a SIM card to try the steps.

I'm positive these will work for you once you insert a SIM card, so try getting one if it's possible at all.

I'll be around if you need any help! :)
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] balanga1:
I installed a SIM and switched off Flight mode but the Date did not get reset after putting it back 10 days and rebooting...

Would it depend on the SIM being used? Maybe I'll try a different one... My device was provided by Three and the Three logo comes up, although I am able to use different SIMs even though the phone has never needed to be unlocked.

[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] Monti1811:
Hey,

I wanted to root my XZ1 compact, unfortunaly I realized that my bootloader is unable to be unlocked.

I am a bit confused, as I thought the unlocking is not allowed if your phone is blocked by your carrier, but this phone doesn't have a branding and has no simlock.

Are there other reasons why a bootloader unlocking isn't allowed?

I got this phone as a display model from I think it was UK, perhaps this could be why.

If someone has an idea if there could be a way to unlock, I would be very grateful, even though I know that it doesn't seem possible.

Edit: Ok I think the bootloader is still blocked by the carrier MyEE, their app is on the phone. So it's probably because of them that the phone is blocked, even though I can use other SIM cards...

If somebody knows what I could do to unblock the bootloader, please tell me.

Thank you!
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] SXUsr:
If the phone came from EE or any other carrier the BL will be locked, getting a code to unlock the sim won't unlock the BL, so unfortunately you're stuck with a BL locked phone.

I've tried quite a number of launchers, but none of the third-party ones is compatible with the quick switch at the bottom. A workaround is to use Fluid navigation gesture, which allows you to tweak the size, position, and thickness of the "bottom" region. No adb needed.

Hello all,

I have my note 9 since 2 years now, i was used to root my phone before but the benefit of root at the beginning of Note 9 was not so cool, so i didnt root it.

Now that my warranty is over, and also because i see that secure folder and spay are working on some custom rom (right no?) i'm thinking of rooting.

WHat do you think about that? is it worth ?

what is for you the better feature of rooting?

thanks :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rosli59564:
Rooted mine after 3 weeks. I know I'm not going to use spay and secure folder. Although now spay works with samsung gear only, not with the phone itself. Secure folder worked well.

I don't like stock rom, lack of customization as opposed to rom control. The ability to reposition status bar icons, dual status bar and many other options + a few rooted apps such as viper4android.

I'm quite a flashaholic too back then.

Each on his own. People view things differently.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] koragg97:
I've rooted both my S3 Mini and S5 the day I got them (or really close to it, don't remember). For me rooting the Note9 is pointless when many root-only features from the past are now put into the stock ROM. Also we have Good Lock and all its modules if we need anything more. If it's not working in your country use NiceLock or FineLock and install the modules from apkmirror. Also the Dolby Atmos is pretty impressive as I don't need V4A anymore - something I couldn't live without on my old phones.

[MTCD Android Head Units General] ILikeMyBike:
Hi,

I am using a PX5 head unit:

Android 9

Model: RK3368

Build Number: rk3368 userdebug 9 PQ2A.190305.002 eng.hct.20190509.101541 test keys

Kernerl version: 4.4.167

MCU Version: MTCE_KSP_V3.07_1

CPU: Octa Core cortex A53@1.5G

Memory 3940 MB

I'd like to pair a Garmin GPS sensor via Bluetooth. The sensor's firmware is at the latest release.

The Head unit is paired with my Note 10+. I can pair the sensor with Samsung Note or Ipad, but I can't do that with the PX5

there is no message, it just doesn't connect. Is there anyway to diagnose what's happening, or things I could try to make that work?

Thanks a lot

Chris
[MTCD Android Head Units General] Tbizzness:
Hi Chris

Bluetooth seems to be very limited when it comes to Android head units. You will see around the forums of people complaining about it. I have 5 OBD II dongles and out of the 5 only 2 work via Bluetooth on the unit yet all work with Bluetooth on my phones.

Problem being also you can't use an external Bluetooth dongle to compensate.

The only suggestion I can give is to connect you GPS to your phone and then tether your phone via mirroring it to your unit so you use the mirrored image from your phone. Other than that you will need to just go with what GPS the unit already has.

My PX6 unit has a good GPS unit that works flawlessly. Speed from GPS is exactly the same as my Speedo and also my phone.
