[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Accessories] pinoymutt:
I know there don't seem to be a lot of 3rd party chargers that are capable of "Super Fast Charging" on the S20, but just wanted to drop a quick note that I found one.

I travel (well usually..) a bit, and try to consolidate my chargers a bit so I'm always on the lookout for decent multi-port adapters. As everyone knows, there are a ton of high powered adapters out there that you would hope give us the juice, but if you have read a bit - Samsung not only requires a PD port, but also PPS - and there aren't a whole of lot of adapters that support them.

I was hoping to pick a new adapter up to try and keep my Surface Go and S20 Ultra charged up, and not be a huge brick and came across this 65W 3-port bad boy: https://amzn.to/2L5d2uf from a company called Baseus. I have a couple of cables from them and they also seem to be popular on Aliepxress as well as Amazon, so decided to give it a try.

Got it in last night and paired it with a new USB 3.1 Gen 2 100W cable that I also just picked up, and lo and behold - I plugged that sucker in and "SUPER FAST CHARGING 2.0" popped up on the screen when using the top USB - C port.

Interestingly enough the second power only registered "SUPER FAST CHARGING" (no 2.0) and the USB-A QC port registered as "FAST CHARGING." Reading through the documentation it's because the first port can give the whole 65W, the second tops at 30W, and of course USB-A is limited. I guess that makes sense since Super Fast 2.0 is 45W with the Samsung OEM charger.

Bottom line, if you are looking for a 3rd party multiport that supports the max charging on the S20 (and I assume Note 10) - this one does the trick. I got mine on Amazon (they had US stock so came relatively quick) - but if you are willing to wait, can probably pick it up on Aliexpress or other source for cheaper.

I bought it for my laptop 4 months ago now its the only charger I use .
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Accessories] pinoymutt:
Nice! -- my primary use was for my Surface, and I didn't think I'd get the highest charge with the S20U, but was a pleasant surprise.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Accessories] fsmeurinne:
I got an Ugreen USB C Charger 36W with 2 Type C ports that works as a Super Fast Charger
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Accessories] krogoth:
You can use any PPS PD charger like baseus 65W on aliexpress but super fast 2 will not be real.

Many chargers trigger Super Fast Charging 2.0 but before You will celebrate, please run battery charging monitor from play store. It will draw a charging curve. Almost all non samsung chargers will oscilate. You wil see around 6000ma and after 2-3s it will drop to 500, and again and again.

This can damage your device, and will take a long time to charge
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Accessories] pinoymutt:
Thanks for the heads up. I ran the app for a few minutes on the BaseUS charger and didn't see any of the dramatic dips as you mentioned above - so I'm hoping that's a good thing. Looks like a pretty consistent curve.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Accessories] Sleepycat3:
The charging current you are getting is not Super Fast Charging 2.0 even though it says so in your notification bar. This is mine with Super Fast Charging 2.0 using the Samsung charger and cable. Battery Charging Monitor will report a higher charging current.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Accessories] Sleepycat3:
Also wanted to add that the Xiaomi Powerbank 3 Pro with USB PD will charge the S20 Ultra at Super Fast Charging 2.0 and at 5A with the supplied samsung cable. And aftermarket Baseus USB C cable only gives 3A.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Accessories] pinoymutt:
Interesting -- well, I guess my takeaway is that it isn't TRUE 2.0 super fast - but also it hopefully won't fry my battery! :D (i.e. not as fast as I'd like, but at least not going to damage the battery).
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Accessories] pinoymutt:
I tried my test with a couple of 100W-rated USB 3.1 gen 2 cables - so it definitely wasn't the cables. But goes to show that cables are an important part of the equation too!
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Accessories] krogoth:
SFC 2.0 require e-marked cables to work, as well as compatible pps charger.

IMHO the best option is to get 45w samsung charger. Other brands are hit or miss.

Hi all!

I need to record calls due to professional reasons and I don't manage to acheive it.

My phone has it's original european rom and I don't want to root it.

Does any one knows any app that could allow me to record calls?

In my previous phone I used Total Recall that worked fine, but I dont managed to make it work with the A51.

Any help is appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy A51 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dornfinger4:
the acr call recording app

Hello,

you can try this app: ACR (Another Call Recorder)

It´s available in the play store and the free version should do all the things you need. For more specifications you can use the paid version.

As i read in the commends you should play a bit around with the microfon settings because of the volume of the incomming voice.
[Samsung Galaxy A51 Themes, Apps, and Mods] YOisuPU:
to get a record of calls from the line (high quality). you need to change the firmware region. There are three regions in which call recording and Samsung Pay work simultaneously. India, Thailand, Vietnam. If you need the Samsung Pay to work, you need to configure it before manipulating (I recommend that before these actions, configure everything that you use, for example, payment, biometrics, etc.). After setting up Samsung Pay & etc. (if you need it of course), download any of the firmware (India, Thailand, Vietnam), take only one file from the firmware - "HOME_CSC ....." Next, we need a computer with the Samsung driver installed and the program ODIN. run ODIN on the computer with administrator rights. connect the phone. insert the HOME_CSC file ... in the program one into the CSC window and flash it. !!!important. ODIN program and firmware file must be located in the root of the disk, otherwise there may be errors. SIM card should not be on the phone. !!! I also advise you to backup, just in case. but nothing should be lost. maybe after the firmware several regional applications will appear - disconnect or delete. Regional holidays may appear on the calendar - go to the phone menu - settings - applications - calendar - reset the application, clear the cache. for clarity, watch the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LzVksyLJH6U&t=1111s (start watching 8.25 minutes) video for example, there is too much that we don’t need. follow only my instructions, I repeat, there are inaccuracies in the video - it is just for a good example. good luck! Have a good mood! let it all work for you!

P.S.!!! You do not need to unlock anything. no need to put a tick anywhere and unlock the bootloader! You just need to turn off the phone, then enter boot mode and flash this file. all! :)

P.P.S. Your firmware should have an identical version of the bootloader. bootloader versions must match. an example is A515FXXU3ATC3 - the bootloader version is the fifth digit from the end, i.e. here in the example, the third bootloader. you can have any, you need the same firmware - download the appropriate one. If in the future you want to receive updates over the air, do the procedure in the opposite direction - flash the file back from your own firmware, update. then you can again flash a new file from India, Thailand or Vietnam. you can also flash the entire firmware of these countries, but there will be no updates by air until you return to your firmware and most importantly you will have to configure the phone. when flashing a single file, configuration is not required.

P.P.P.S. from programs that record from the microphone, the best recording is obtained from the Cube ACR program (you need to add an increase in clarity in the settings) the bad thing is that the recording quality is still worse and this is an extra application that has its own permissions.

Thank you. It works. But the issue I am facing the facial recognition not working, while registering the face it failed..
[Samsung Galaxy A51 Themes, Apps, and Mods] arseven:
Hi YOisuPU,

Thanks for your huge help.

Let me see if I understand well: once i flash the file "HOME_CSC ....." i will no longer get the OTA updates?

Where can I download the firmware (India, Thailand, Vietnam) ?
[Samsung Galaxy A51 Themes, Apps, and Mods] YOisuPU:
Until recently, it was believed that in order to receive updates by air, you need to repeat the operation in the reverse order, that is, flash your own HOME_CSC .. get updates .. and then flash HOME_CSC India, Thailand, Vietnam again. Now I get messages that updates are arriving to someone in this state, since most firmwares are inter-regional and differ only in the presence of local applications. I conclude - that everything happens on an individual basis, perhaps an update will arrive and the recording of calls will also remain in place or maybe not. but if the update doesn’t arrive for a very long time, we know what to do. we can download the firmware ourselves and update it all through odin. and then install HOME_CSC India, Thailand, Vietnam again. or we can install the full firmware of India, Thailand, Vietnam and download the updates each time independently. To save your data, make a backup or just flash HOME_CSC. In general, there are two files in the downloaded firmware, flash one of them 1) HOME_CSC - your data will remain in the phone 2) CSC - your data will be deleted - the phone will be like new from the store. firmware can be downloaded https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-a51/firmware/#SM-A515F

---------- Post added at 04:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:49 AM ----------

never encountered this. I will try to find the answer on the net. I can advise on my own - for any glitches and incomprehensible situations - try reset the application. settings - applications - show system apk - choose the apk you need - cache reset + data reset.

p.s. I recommend that before these actions, configure everything that you use, for example, payment, biometrics, etc.

[Moto G5S  Questions & Answers] Rush:
MTU? Whats that exactly? Im Not getting It :eek:
[Moto G5S  Questions & Answers] TidragonX:
I need to change the bluetoth MTU in my custom rom, because the standard MTU comes in 23kb, but I want to change the 512 stop, making it similar to a samsung device that has this MTU value, currently the only way I found was to recompile the rom, but wanted to find a more practical method, through some command or repository via magisck
[Moto G5S  Questions & Answers] Rush:
If you have to recompile to do this, I don't think there is a Magisk Method, also, I still don't quite get what "Bluetooth MTU" is...

I really miss having a small phone and this was the last of Sony's really small devices, is there a firmware available that supports Whatsapp, Facebook (with messenger) and Google maps? I really don't need anything else, well except the camera to take the odd snap and of course basic phone functions for making calls and texts etc.

Thanks,

Karl
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] roadtrip111:
Same here with my Xperia Active. I think this device is a gem. Unfortunately i doubt using it today safety wise :(. Would love to bring it back to life in 2020.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Karlos G:
Yeah basically the same phone isn't it mate?

I'm just pissed of with being forced to have large form factor phones, I've been using the Sony Compact range for the last few years and they were really good and at least not too big (by today's standards), Sony's current offerings are far too big as are other manufacturers.

I'm actually using a Galaxy S10 as my daily and it's always falling out of my pocket because of how big it is!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] temporary2010:
I have Android 4.0.4 in my Mini-Pro, and it's still supported by Whatsapp. I haven't tried/used the other two, though.

I still use it as my main phone, since it is very compact and has a physical keyboard. I basically use a mobile phone for text messaging and camera.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Karlos G:
Would you mind trying Google maps and Facebook messenger for me please? That would be so helpful and then I'll know whether to buy one or not!

Thanks

You can even install Android 7.1 yet with LinageOS 14. I have these devices: Xperia Mini, Xperia Pro SK17 and Xperia Play. All of them using Android 6 or Android 7.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Cryte-k:
please. It has a tutorial on how to install version 6 or 7? I have a SK17i currently.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] diejuse:
1) Download the ROM from here: https://archive.org/download/Legacy....0-20161109-UNOFFICIAL-LegacyXperia-mango.zip

2) Unzip and extract boot.img

3) Connect your device to PC.

4) Enter in fastboot mode in your XPERIA and type in your PC terminal: fastboot flash boot boot.img

4) Type in your PC: fastboot reboot

5) Enter in recovery mode in your XPERIA.

6) Choose wipes (factory reset, wipe cache, system wipe).

7) Choose sideload install and type in your PC: adb sideload cm-13.0-20161109-UNOFFICIAL-LegacyXperia-mango.zip

8) Wait, reboot and enjoy.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Cryte-k:
thanks for the steps.

Step 2 to the decompressing put the whole folder on my xperia sd card?

step 4 would be in the CMD mode or adb?

Step 5 have to disconnect the mobile to the start in recovery mode?

Step 7 is sideload?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] diejuse:
Step 2. Extract only boot.img file. You need the whole .zip file in step 7.

Step 4. Your phone in recovery mode and your PC in terminal with adb.

Step 5. To enter in recovery mode you must restart your phone and click volume - button many times.

Step 7. Sideload is a recovery mode option. It is the way to install .zip file.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] flameseewa:
That's really cool. How well do the phones perform? Working well, or laggy? I would appreciate a video of how it functions.

How to use fastboot drivers / usb drivers with SK17i on pc? ..

I am still just before step 1) :D

Are there some special USB drivers? .. or some special operation system needs?

Thankes :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Nautilus_:
I did the same with my Xperia Mini (upgraded it to Android 7.1.2, I used lineage-14.1-20170514-UNOFFICIAL-LegacyXperia-smultron ROM) and also upgraded Xperia Active (to Android 6.0.1, I tested both CM13 ROMs, cm-13.0-20160418-UNOFFICIAL-LegacyXperia-satsuma and cm-13.0-20160327-UNOFFICIAL-LegacyXperia-satsuma).

And here is the main problem I've been trying to fix for the last two weeks: on both of them I simply cannot get wired or bluetooth microphone working. E.g. if I plug in headphones (headset with microphone), upgraded Xperia doesn't switch internal microphone to the plugged in headset mic or bluetooth mic (sound is there on the headphones, but mic is not being switched from internal microphone to the mic on the headset). The headset works just fine on another Xperia Mini (with stock ROM, Android 4.1), and I have tested many other headsets with the same result. The same is with bluetooth headset, it simply won't switch to it on upgraded Xperia.

Same thing is on Xperia Active. On the stock ROM it works just fine, but after the upgrade to Android 6, headset or bluetooth microphone won't work.

If anyone knows the solution to this issue, please let me know how you managed to get microphone working on either wired headset or bluetooth headset on your upgraded Xperia Mini (or Xperia Active).

I've been trying to fix this for two weeks now and I still haven't found the solution :(

I mostly use my Xperia phones on bike rides, and I need to use handsfree for calls. Without internal mic switching to the headset mic, it's useless :(

If no one here knows the solution, I will perhaps open a new thread.

Many thanks in advance!!!

Forget to mention something, it is still possible to use google maps, the stock application that comes with 4.0.4 is used very well and gives you the exact location of where you are, obviously you must enable the location and gps in the settings, also if You have installed and done everything I put above, no application will be dependent on Google play services or Market, good luck!

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Mr Tool:
So, I created an account only to help because I recently purchased this phone in Mexico.

First, the phone had Android GB and when I tried to update it, the latest Flashtool was not allowing me to update it because it was not recognizing the ftf file. Had to look for another version of it, found it and worked: https://www.mediafire.com/file/2fz9z38zutq2hs5/flashtool-0.6.8.0-windows.exe/file

Second, the ftf that I used is the one found here (SK17a 4.0.4): http://ultimatepirate.weebly.com/ftf-flashing-filesstock-roms.html.

Now, I didn´t wanted to go into some more things to get a higher Android version but, I was able to install Messenger lite and Fb Lite in this Android version (4.0.4), more specifically the version Facebook Messenger Lite 139.0.0.2.118 beta (arm-v7a) (280-320dpi) (Android 4.0+) found here https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/faceb...-139-0-0-2-118-android-apk-download/download/ and is working with no issues.

I downloaded them in my other phone (s20) and transfer the APK via bluetooth to the Sony, then install them from it.

Talking about Whatsapp, I was not able to find a version that may work on it but I´ll keep trying.

I didn´t upgrade my phone to a higher version because it has the bootlader locked and I read that I needed to pay or go to the carrier to unlock wich is impossible because of how old this phone is.

My phone is telcel here in Mexico and the configuration is:

Name: Telcel

APN: internet.itelcel.com

Username (Nombre de usuario): webgprs

Password (Contraseña): webgprs2002

Please, if you have any questions ask me, maybe a was not that clear on some things but I tried
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] JoeCoctail:
Thats also my fear. I have ST15i and looking for a rebirth - with a custom ROM.

But which to take?

Most important for me:

- Google Maps

- Whatsapp

- Camera

But it should not be too slow with all this.

Any proposal for 2023 ?
