Hi,

I'm having in the \windows directory a huge file of 16MB "mxip_initdb.vol".

Can anybody tell me what it is for and why we need it for.

Thanks

Lambert
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] ericsson68:
I understood this held stuff like your numbers, call entires, calendar, tasks etc so deleting it probably isn't a good idea.

It's 16mb on mine too.

I'm sure there used to be a process to shrink it involving backing up, changing the file name and re-synching but I don't have the detail so I wouldn't try that!

Perhaps it's now a fixed size?

Hi,

I am using a Tewee device and currently uninstalled every bloatware using link2sd apk. only using few apps which are required. but the device performance is very poor and videos hangs a lot.

i want to upgrade my device with new kernel and Android (the max it can handle). the device is currently rooted and SU installed, also using swapper and a 512mb swap memory on sd card.

the device info is attached for reference.

any developer can help with a rom file and a new kernel.

thanks in advance
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] macromicr0:
Hello all, I am researching this series of samsung tablets & i want to know if it would be possible to install a LineageOS + MicroG services?

I see that the device has multiple LineageOS Roms up & running already, but in particular I need MicroG..

Has anyone tested this device series with MicroG?

I do not want google on my devices, hence the questions..

I appreciate any feedback,

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] bubsy1976:
I'm using los16 and I've got microg working with YouTube vanced but that's as far I've gone as I've got gapps installed too.

I've tried and failed to completely replace gapps with microg in the past but that wasn't on my tabs2.

I'd be interested to hear if you manage it though.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] ericcl:
I have this exact combo. Tab S2 with LineageOS 16 official + microG. I didn't install GApps, but I did install the Aurora store client to get a couple paid apps from Google Play. With Magisk, I can run all the streaming services that I use (netflix, hulu, prime, disney).

[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] MrFrizzy:
Ever since updating to A10 on my OnePlus 5t, I can no longer access the "SIM & network" menu within "Wi-Fi & internet". Each time I do, it loads a white page briefly with com.android.phone.oneplusOPMSimActivity as text across the top before kicking back to the previous page. If I try more than once, then the popup for "com.android.phone keeps stopping" comes up with the options for "App info" or "Close app". Each time I try to open this menu, the cell network drops and then reconnects. All of the other options in the "Wi-Fi & internet" menu work as expected.

Yesterday is when I started this whole process. I initially had my phone on the OOS version from late December 2019 (I don't recall the exact version number) with TWRP 3.3.1-0 for recovery and Magisk 20.4. I went into recovery, flashed the A10 OTA full zip, flashed the TWRP 3.3.1-x blu_spark v9.110 recovery, flashed Magisk 20.4, then booted like normal but had no cell connectivity at all (no baseband, IMEI was unknown, etc). After a lot of troubleshooting and reflashing several times, it turns out the one Magisk module that I had installed was not compatible as once I removed it and rebooted, the cell connectivity worked fine.

Fast forward to today and I noticed that I could not access the "SIM & network" menu. I have tried reflashing everything again; removing Magisk and leaving TWRP; going back to full stock without root; booting into safe mode; flashing back to TWRP, wiping Dalvik / ART cache, Cache, and System, then flashing OTA, Magisk, and blu_spark kernel 199; booting into TWRP and wiping Dalvik / ART Cache, Cache, and System, then flashing the OTA without TRWP or Magisk; etc. I could not access the "SIM & network" menu without the app crash at any point, even in safe mode on the factory ROM without root or custom recovery. I also tried clearing the cache and data for com.android.phone, SIM Toolkit, and Phone without any change.

I have not yet tried to take my device completely back to factory state yet (wipe all partitions and start from scratch) as that will take an eternity to restore from. If I have to I will, but I will try every option available to me before I do.

I did a logcat through adb and reproduced the problem. I'm not an Android dev so the logs are of questionable use to me but may point me to something to look at.

Any thoughts on what I should do? Is this something having to do with the previous recovery or root? Is this something caused by existing files on my phone? Is this something broken in the factory OTA and I need to contact OnePlus? The phone is functional otherwise, but man it is annoying not being able to access this menu.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] nguyenlucky:
Have you tried wiping data while on "full stock" state? (you will not lose /sdcard)

If that doesn't work, I would suggest that you use Unbrick tool 9.0.11 (which wipes everything including /sdcard) and OTA to OOS 10 (and reunlock).

I had the same problem, dirty flashing the ETA from this xda post has fixed the issue for me for now: https://www.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5-5t-stable-android-10-oxygenos-10-update/
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] MrFrizzy:
So, I hadn't messed with this for a while and just put it on the back burner. That was until I realized that I could not make calls as I would just get a bunch of chirping, garbled, chipmunk like sound which made the call useless. It worked fine if I answered a call, but not if I made one. I figured it was related to this issue so I went through the process of trying to get things working again. I tried just flashing the A10 OTA again with the blu_spark TWRP and Magisk 20.4, but that didn't fix it. I then proceeded to try and do a full backup of my phone as I was going to try the full wipe and start over fresh, but trying to backup everything is a joke through the USB2.0 connection on this phone let alone trying to get everything just in case I wanted to roll back to how the phone was working prior to the wipe.

At some point I gave up on the backup stuff and just got my user data. Then I got the idea to try going back to the previous working version of Android Pie. I don't recall what my thought process was, but it didn't end up working. For whatever reason, the 53 update was doing the same thing the 54 update did where it would boot up and immediately power off once the lock screen came up. It worked fine before with update 53, but now it wasn't so I flashed back to A10. Now, suddenly, I've noticed that I can access the "Network & SIM" section of the menu without that error from before. I don't know when or what fixed that issue, but it works every time now. Mind you, I did wipe the Dalvik/ART cache, cache, system, and vendor partitions at various points in my attempt to get things working, some of them more than once. I also played around with what partitions were mounted within TWRP though I really did not know what I was doing.

The chipmunk, chirping, garbled thing is still there, but it sounds like many people have had that issue with A10 on other phones. So luckily enough, just turning on and off speaker phone fixes the issue immediately (but I believe for just that call). That is an easy enough work around for me. As much as I want to leave my phone alone, I still have an issue where the phone always boots into recovery first and I have to select reboot > system through TWRP for the phone to boot up normally. I tried reflashing things multiple times, wiping the various partitions, and even some commands from a Nokia forum, but nothing worked. I imagine this is because I messed with the mounted partitions within TWRP and did a flash, but I am not sure on that. I think it could be that the system is booting into recovery because it thinks that is the "normal" partition with the whole A/B partition system, but again, I am not sure on that. I may post again if I end up figuring that all out.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] Kotakbundar:
Hey guys,

Okay so long story short, i went through a lot of reinstalling magisk modules and battery twrp mods, one time the reboot took longer than usual, so i wiped caches and rebooted and its fixed. Later on, i decided to uninstall a magisk module, so i rebooted, and now im stuck.

Thats not the problem tho, the huge problem is that twrp is failing to wipe partitions, it says that partitions are successfully wiped, but theyre not. Because of this issue i cant reflash my rom and fix the problem.

I tried rebooting from twrp and it booted, but then it immediately reboots again and its back to bootlooping.

I tried changing to a different twrp, the twrp install is successfull, but still not able to wipe partitions.

I alr tried reflashing my rom, but no luck, i need to wipe my partitions but my phone just cant do it,

Pls help

When I call my girlfriend/friends I like to read the news and search things up as we talk. As you can imagine, I prefer using VOICE SEARCH as opposed to TYPING.

Well what do you know... ANDROID made it where if I'm on a phone call, I cannot use my VOICE SEARCH feature. I was always able to do this on my Samsung S8+. I bought a OnePlus 7T and now I am not able to do this.

I was about to return my phone for that reason but when I went to the Verizon store and tested out the new SAMSUNG S20 ULTRA, it's the same thing. It seems the "geniuses" at Google disabled this feature for whatever reason. Please tell me there is a way around this.

I have already deleted and disabled Google Chrome and Google Search widget because I can't watch videos while I'm on a phone call. I've confirmed this is the case with all the recent Android phones out. I found a fix around that though: FIREFOX and FIREFOX SEARCH WIDGET.

I'm losing my mind I am starting to hate Android more and more they keep making our lives more difficult. Please help me before I switch to an Apple device!

Hey,

I experimented a bit and found 2 ways to reuse the Photochrome filter. :)

[ROOT]

1. Download the Magisk Module from the Attachment.

2. Install the Module using Magisk Manager.

3. Reboot.

4. Open Phone App and type *#808#

5. Go to the Camera tab and click to "fourth back camera preview".

6. Now you can screenshot objects.

Screens:

[NON-ROOT]

1. Download this Package: Download

2. Open the zip and install the "GoogleCamera.apk"

3. Copy the "GCam" folder on the internal memory.

4. Open GCam and Restore the "Urnyx 7.3 Hooolm v8 (OP8 Pro).xml" Profile.

5. Now you can click on the "C" logo and can use the Photochrome filter again.

Screen:
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Macusercom:
Does the non-root variant work without Magisk? Because you can't change the cameras if you don't use the Aux Magisk Module that patches SELinux.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Themes, Apps, and Mods] jamal2367:
Works without Module :)

The AUX module is only needed for some GCam features like slow motion etc.

But for the Photochrome filter the module is not needed.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Macusercom:

If you want to use everything else, you need the AUX module, but you need root.

The non root method doesn't work. App just crashes.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Themes, Apps, and Mods] GizModio:
The link you have provided is for version 4.0.279. The same version which 'ships' with the 10.5.10/10.5.11 update (Where the capability was adjusted.) With that being said, installing the older version 4.0.267 (From 10.5.8/10.5.9) doesn't bring back the original capability of the filter either.

For some reason, when the application is closed, and then reopened, the version will revert back to 4.0.279. (That's even with installing the application through adb with -r -d flags)

As above, there is no risk in you installing apk in the link. It is exactly the same version as the one on your phone (4.0.279.) The older version (4.0.267) however will return an Install failed message. (As there is a newer version already installed.)

If you do manage to install it, and the only foreseeable way I've found was manually through adb using '-r' and '-d' flags. As soon as the app is closed and then reopened, it will revert back to the newest version (4.0.279)

It looks as though OnePlus have really thought this one through, and obviously have changed a number of system lib files. And sorry to burst your bubble here... A simple APK downgrade is not the answer. :(
