Hi

I rooted my phone and then flash official rom for my Samsung galaxy s8+ the status is official but I tripped Knox, so I can't open Samsung health Samsung pay Samsung pass Samsung internet with secret mode and etc

the solution is to edit build.prop file so I have to install TWRP recovery to mount system and edit it with ABD or root my phone which means the status won't be official any more so I decided to edit build.prop on MD5 rom files then flash the md5 file to my phone then the status is official and Samsung apps will work with tripped Knox

but how can I edit MD5 rom file?

[Sony Xperia 5 Questions & Answers] twelveways1:
I just bought an Xperia 5 in China. As it didn't come with Google services, I didn't get the option to restore from my old phone. There doesn't seem to be an option to do that except during Setup. If I do a factory reset then I will lose Google again, so that won't work.

The only option I can think of is to install a custom rom, is that even possible with this model? If so, could someone please point me in the right direction, I'm a bit of a noob

Thank you

Did you solve your issue? I was having the same, except it starts every 3 seconds now, and it doesn't even show the lenovo logo any more.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus Questions & Answers] rosset:
Could you be more specific? What are you doing? What software are you using? etc...
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus Questions & Answers] DaBixx:
Ah I'm sorry I wasn't clear, I just wanted to say that at first I had the same exact issue described here, but then it started to try to boot (it just gave a slight vibration and the power button lit up) every 3 seconds.

Turns out it wasn't because of my wrong doing: the device is my father's, and he tells me it does this often. The battery doesn't hold charge any more, in fact it turns off at 50%.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus Questions & Answers] rosset:
Then .... Have you tried to do a factory reset? You can do by pressing volume down and power button simultaneously to enter to recovery mode. Navigate thru the options with volume up and down keys and power to confirm. Search for the "Factory reset" option. This will erase all the data in the main memory of the tablet but not in the SD card.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] maor23:
Hey guys, first i want to apolgize about my english.

I got new multimedia in my car today, joying android 8.1 and i tried to install from ApkMirror the Android auto apk, but when i installed it, it was install as administrator app(i think.. i can only activate or disable the app). i cant open the app and cant uninstall it.

i'm unrooted.

there is way to uninstall it?

and if i already made a thread, i want to get some recommended apps for my multimedia joying in my car
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] jrobbom5:
I'm not sure how you would uninstall it, but in any case, you install Android Auto on your phone, not on the head unit. On the head unit side, you either need a dongle (your head unit manufacturer will sell one as an accessory) into which you plug in your phone via a USB cable, or you install an app called "HeadUnit reloaded" on the head unit. Although I have Android Auto and Headunit Reloaded, I don't really use them. I find AA too restrictive, the only real benefit it gives me as access to messages (SMS, Whatsapp) from my phone.

I've only had my head unit for a few weeks now, but have installed the Hal9k ROM, and FCC Launcher. I also installed PowerAmp for music. It's really easy to configure it all to work together so that the interface is as easy to use as Android Auto
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] BluishJoe:
Hello everybody,

on my Mi A2, after Android 10 update, it messed up with dual SIM. I removed second SIM because it was obsolete, but main SIM could not connect anymore to mobile network...

I also updated to the March 1th update but nothing changed.

I solved putting on a second SIM and checking that main SIM was the default one for mobile network (I noticed it was not set!). Then I removed the second SIM.

Now my problem is that mobile network works only with 3G protocol and not 4G, even if 4G is the preferred one.

Have you experienced something similar? What can I try?

Thank you in advance!

Hi Cendaryn,

NO, you are not blind.

There is absolutely no german WM6.1 for the Athena!:(

There are a number of ways to change the behavior of the english roms to german, for example the soft keyboard and the hard keyboard.

Generally, RealVGA has a feature to switch the Athena to german but this feature didn't work or has no effect on my german T-Mobile Ameo.

Hi!

I'm new here and I'm developer. Unfortunately, I can't post my app to XDA: DEVDB yet. But I can ask the community something at least.

I'm working on the app for Digital Wellbeing. The goal of the app the same as for all digital wellbeing apps. To reduce mindless smartphone usage.

So, my questions are:

1. Do you use any Digital Wellbeing apps?

2. What are these apps? App Blockers? Screen time stats?

3. Do you think screen time and all that Digital Wellbeing stuff are important?

Thanks,

The concept is very good!!!

Implementation is a bit disappointing...

Saw some reviews on ps...

App doesn't always start by itself,, sometimes late,,,

That dismiss option..... ?

But keeping in mind it is still in early stages,,, it is doing its job well

Lastly keeping the app open in background, how much battery does it consume...

N if possible, make a root version too for force implementation...

Nice work though

Keep it up

[Android General] BenjyTec:
Hey Developers, I am interested in your opinions.

I have an app published on Google Play. Its minSDK currently is set to API 16, which is Android 4.1. To ensure compatibility, I left off some of newer design features that are not included in the androidx packages. In the past few days, I read about some apps that are dropping their support for Android Kitkat with API 19. I personally have been looking forward to this for a few months now, knowing that I can get rid of ensuring compatibility with these old devices, as there several times were unexpected problems, and my testing capacities are quite limited.

I checked out my Developer Console to see how the Android versions of my app users are distributed, and the installations on devices with Android from API 16 to API 19 in the past 180 days made 8% of the total installations number. As I am rather new to app development, I'm highly interested about your opinions, how long I should keep supporting pre Lollipop Android?

Regarding monetarization, I use in app purchases. So only a small amount of the users pays for the app.

Thanks in advance!

Hi there!

So, anybody who updated to android 10 knows about the annoying suggestions appearing in settings, which at the moment can't be dismissed or swiped away. Clearing the data of Settings Suggestions app can "fix" the issue momentarily but it'll come back again. Seems like the issue is about suggestions.xml file (/data/data/com.android.settings.intelligence/shared_prefs/suggestions.xml) not updating the boolean values correctly.

Examples:

<boolean name="com.android.settings/com.android.settings.wallpaper.StyleSuggestionActivity_is_dismissed" value="false" />

<boolean name="com.android.settings/com.android.settings.wallpaper.WallpaperSuggestionActivity_is_dismissed" value="false" />

The above lines must be changed from "false" to "true" in order for the suggestions to be dismissed but root is required to access and edit the suggestions.xml file i mentioned above. However, i managed to discover a rootless way of doing that by creating an adb data only backup of Settings Suggestions app. I used adb backup extractor to extract the backup file and edit suggestions.xml, restored the edited backup file via adb restore and the suggestions were gone. I've tried the method twice just to be sure and it's working.

I'm attaching the zip containing the edited backup file that you guys can restore using "adb restore data.ab" command.

NOTE: The restore process won't work on old adb drivers so make sure you use the latest platform tools before trying.

2 - Extract the attached zip and put "data.ab" in the same folder were the adb executable is.

4 - Connect the device and execute "adb restore data.ab" in adb

So here is the deal. I see the font and display size as 'big' on the lockscreen, when I have kept settings of both to 'small'.

[Xiaomi Mi A3 Guides, News, & Discussion] eltonb:
[MENTION=4269226]amnher[/MENTION] Nope, only adb

[MENTION=6281505]tejas1903[/MENTION] In my case, when i change the display size, certain elements like the power menu revert back to their original size after locking the phone (lock screen isn't affected though). I noticed it only happens when i use fingerprint unlock, which means getting rid of the fingerprints and keeping pin/password/pattern only as a method of unlocking fixes the issue in my case. I don't know if we are affected by the same bug, you can test it by removing the fingerprint and see for yourself. It's a pitty, when the first android 10 update came i thought the suggestion bug would be fixed by the 2nd update, yet here we are on the 4th one. Xiaomi really takes it's time in fixing the bugs however i still hope for a future bug free release....
