Coz Xioami choose to use Miracast for it's mirroring protocol instead of Chromecast.

Those two are different protocol.

Try updating "security" app manually from apkmirror, (not sure if this is the one that added the option for me, or having Android 10 11.0.4), after you do one of these options, or both, go to:

Settings>special features>video toolbox>manage video app>add your desired app to cast.

Now whenever you open the app you will see a small line in one of the edges, you can swipe it and you will see many options, one of them is cast
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] GabiTM:
Hi,

I am the latest idiot that got a P40 Pro and wants to use google stuff.

I had problems with apps going to sleep and not working any more (ACR, daily cloud backup, even WhatsApp) so I removed powergenie with command adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.huawei.powergenie.

Apps are now running but I don't have any power stats for software in setting - battery.

Is it related to powergenie or other stuff I did during setup?

Is the normal android power management still works or all apps are now running until force manual close ?

Thank you!
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] mahdibassam:
I just enable manual launch on the apps I need notifications from and that does the job. Why do u remove power genie?
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] GabiTM:
Even with manual launch, WhatsApp was going to sleep, and the desktop version - web.whatsapp stopped working due to lack of connection with phone.

Is there a way to edit the whitelist of powergenie?
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] mahdibassam:
I have never had that issue with whatsapp with any of my Huawei phones including p40. Are u running in power saving mode or something maybe?
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] GabiTM:
Hmmm...

I will restore powergenie and try again, I had problems with that app even with my old phone P20 Pro, Titanium backup and Call Recorder ACR stopped running after a few days if I didn't open the app.

Edit: The second I restored powergenie, battery usage for software started working even with history for apps (the data is still stored somewhere)
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] mahdibassam:
If u set to manual launch and allow to run in background, that should do the trick. Make sure u aren't running any sort of power saving mode as well .
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] GabiTM:
I've got used to Huawei and aggressive power management, the first thing I do is set it to manual for mail and other apps that I want to run and receive notification fast, I even pin some apps.

Hello

I downloaded some movies to my phone and then transferred them to my external HD. Now the memory in my phonr is showing like there is some data which is the same amount of data as the movies are even though I transferred them and they are not on the phone. I used an called DiskUsage and its showing 200gb in system data. I cannot access or delete this. I don't want to factory reset my phone, so please can someone help me on how to clear this data?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 1890170:
The term System data is absolutely errleading: Downloads never go to Android's /system partition but always to Android's /data partition.

So you just need to look for files in /data that take up the huge amount of space - if any.

The real way to check Android's storage is to go to Settings -> Storage

Example:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mpuljko:
Thank you for your answer but I have found the solution to this problem. You see there is something called File Guardian which is a part of Galaxy Labs on Samsung phones. Now the thing is I know exactly where all my files are stored on my phone since I like to keep it tidy ? but since I moved all the downloaded movies to external HD these files were nowhere to be found. Going into storage analyser was showing 283gb in "other storage". This app File Guardian serves as a possibility to restore moved/deleted files but even when I went to search for apps which might be taking much space as I thought there could be some temp/cache data left over from the transfer I could find nothing. Then I remembered to check this File Guardian and there was 512 files there. As I said you cannot find these anywhere except in this app. I deleted it from there permanently and voila the memory is OK now. What's really strange is that I looked all over internet and couldn't find solution to this problem, I was already getting afraid I would have to factory reset my phone. It might be really useful for some people to know about this though.

That's just the OIS in the camera lens. Every phone that have OIS do that. The lens needs to move to compensate the hand shaking. If you search for "JerryRigEverything teardown" on youtube he usually test the camera and you can see the movement of the lens. For example with this p40 pro teardown

[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] u8ububu:
Hi all,

Since I haven't seen a kernel tree on XDA that had the mediatek drivers (the ones xiaomi has put in a separate git repo), I thought I'll put them back into the tree.

The drivers have been taken out of the tree from drivers/misc/mediatek. To make them work at all, the makefiles need some changes.

1) In the connectivity folder, to build more than just the wifi drivers, the others folders must be added back into the build (at least, obj-y += {folders}/).

2) The include directives must be changed to include from $(srctree)/drivers/misc/mediatek/... instead of $(TOP)/vendor/.../kernel_modules/...

Besides that, there are some minor changes here and there to get them working properly.

I've managed to get it to boot correctly after disabling stock modules (by moving the folder, otherwise they seem to get inserted even if the drivers are already in the kernel). However, even if the connac device appears in the /sys/devices/platform, wifi still fails to turn on. GNSS turns on, but it is very slow. Only some gps and glonass sats show up, much fewer than normally should, and I could not get a fix (this might be either because there's some firmware problem preventing beidou and galileo from showing up, or the system is too slow and hasn't yet loaded beidou and galileo data - can't tell because I've been indoors and even on stock kernel, cold TTFF is quite long).

Care to share some thoughts? Some resources, maybe?

P.S.: I've not published the merged tree because I've poked it a lot and it's a mess.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] u8ububu:
I've dug more into this. It's quite likely that the drivers released by Xiaomi don't match the shipped kernel (or the hardware on the device).

It looks like the released wifi driver has trouble accessing the hardware registers and ports on the wifi block. Also, the firmware binary specified in the driver source doesn't match those on vendor (it's searching for WIFI_RAM_CODE_soc1_0_1_1, while stock uses WIFI_RAM_CODE_soc1_0_2a_1; these are hardcoded in the driver). I've searched through the sources for the file loaded by the stock kernel and it's not mentioned anywhere in the source.

Edit: Actually it does match, it's the flavoured firmware branch. I was confused by the comments above the code.

Edit2: Everything boils down to a missing definition in the Makefiles/build options. See below.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] u8ububu:
Ok, finally found the problem. The modules need to be built with WIFI_IP_SET=2. This flag changes both the name of the firmware and some padding in the structures. That's why it failed so hard.

AAAArgh...

If this works ok, I'll try to post a working tree next couple of days.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] u8ububu:
I've put the sources on github. Wifi, GPS, NFC, Bluetooth work built-in.

That said, there still seems to be some problems (I'm seeing reboots every 15 mins or so).

I know for a thing that there's a problem with the embedded secure element (somewhere along the TEE/NFC stack), and I think that's what causes the reboots.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] u8ububu:
Couldn't get the eSE to work; if anyone's interested, the error looks like this:

[ 197.239862] -(0)[240:teei_switch_thr][TZ_LOG] ESE-S | [phNxpEsePal_spi.cc:171/spiread_dma] <err> dma read nad over time.\x0d
[ 197.241310] -(0)[240:teei_switch_thr][TZ_LOG] ESE-S | \x0d

Which sounds like the eSE server in the TEE can't talk properly to the eSE chip over the spi bus.

However, I've disabled the secure element in Android, and it seems like the problems are gone (though secure card wallets, like Google Pay will have to use a software implementation).

I've disabled the secure element in Android by (replace removal by moving to a backup location at your discretion)

rm /vendor/etc/init/android.hardware.secure_element@1.0-service-mediatek.rc
rm /vendor/etc/init/vendor.microtrust.hardware.se@1.0-service.rc
rm /bin/hw/android.hardware.secure_element@1.0-service-mediatek
rm /bin/hw/vendor.microtrust.hardware.se@1.0-service
pm hide com.android.se

It might be that only the last command is necessary though (if you do test this, please reply - I only went up on the chain of dependencies).

Hi,

I want to create a bin file with my dumped rom (HHC2 FR), with the Samsung i780 kitchen 0.2 beta, but there is a connection issue.

Like famusc wrote in his post, the problem can be fixed by use another bin with the same language for the conversion. But all the bin I found has this problem.

Does anyone have an old french rom which works fine ?

If not, do you know how to fix this issue ?

Is it possible to fix it with the use of another rom language for the conversion ?

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] EFN:
I am inclined to port my WM6.1 release to "some" euro locales (Germania, Italino, French etc) I have ideas on how to do that but I don't think I have the time to selectively port the required MUIs.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mievalt:
I understand that, but maybe you can give us hints on how start filtering the MUIs or what you think we have to do. Just replacing the zylonite_keypad_Us.dll and the S00x files brings the result that the layout changes but the mouse and the touchscreen seem to not get along with it...

What do you think???
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] EFN:
Changing the keyboard driver alone will not be sufficient. You need to have supporting MUIs to make them work in harmony. The MUIs need to be salvaged from pure Fr (for example) rom which runs on the desired DPI. IE, the MUIs must be extracted carefully out from the donor rom and then placed in the kitchen with the proper rgus that correspond to the Lang ID. But finding intact MUIs can be a problem in itself. Was there any official release for i780 Rom in Fr?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mievalt:
I don't know if there was in France, but in Germany we have an official release and I have the dumped files extracted from the clear german rom too...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] EFN:
So I assume that Germanic keyboard is applicable to Fr as well?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mievalt:
No don't think so because in France they got azerty and we here in germany have the qwertz layout. We just have to change the Y and Z... I don't know if it makes that easier... So you think that replacing the zylonite_keypad_Us.dll or editing it is not he right beginning...?????
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] EFN:
I think you are on the right track, just that you can't rely 100% on that alone. If you are familar with rom cooking, then you can explore with sourcing out for MUI files from other roms (not necessarily i780) and do trial and error in cooking them.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mievalt:

Since few days ago, I started to experience somo problem with the USB DAB+ adapter. Sometimes it was not detected at both cold or hot startup. Then, since yesterday the DAB adapter is not detected anymore by the HU. It was correctly working before I switched off the car. After few minutes, I started again but no more connection to the adapter is performed.

I know that some GS units, has problem with USB at low outside temperatures. This is my case during winter, but now we have more than 25°C and, when it happens, I found that all USB are not working.

The adapter is connected to the rear of the HU (OTG) USB port. In this case, all the other USB are working, thus it could be the adapter or a bad connection.

Any ideas ?

Found the issue. All 4 pins on the usb were disconnected. Probably vibration and temperature variations caused it. Resoldered and it is working again.

I discovered another interesting thing. When the radio screen is off the signal is max but when is on, then the signal is attenuated a lot. Probably the screen controller is generating interferences on the same DAB frequency. One solution could be to move the dongle far from the head unit and to use some metal sheet as shield. I will test better the issue, switching off the screen in the few places were in my city il loss the signal. The screenshot below are taken from my Note 10 running dab app inside the car.

You can see from the pictures below that with the screen light at max the signal strength is low and the opposite with the screen light at minimum.

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] DrRobin:
I moved my DAB dongle to the boot, rapped it in copper tape and earthed it really well. I also added ferrites to the lead, this helped, but didn’t fix the problem.

I then used a spectrum analyser and found a strong signal at DAB frequencies coming out of the front of the head unit when the screen was on, same as you found. THe noise is then picked up by the antenna.

Wrapping copper tape round the head unit on the metal part just near the front and connecting to the metal of the car cut the noise out of the head unit, see my earlier post for details.

I have two different Xtrons units in different cars, one is noisy (fixed with the copper tape) and the other is clean, it must be the backlight circuit.
