[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] KOLIOSIS:
I would get either a T-Mobile phone, or, an unlocked US model.

If you're using an international unlocked phone, you're going to be missing a band or two, most likely Band 71,at minimum. YMMV whether that's going to matter much.

If you have a 5G international phone, all but Band 41 will be missing.

What phone are you planning on using?

I have my second Xiaomi smartphone now. I've been with this brand for 7 years now. My father and brother also use Xiaomi phones. I am generally satisfied of how they work though I sometimes have connection problems (not sure whether it's me or the phone). Before Xiaomi I had Samsung back in 2012. I guess Samsung nowadays is getting better but I still don't really trust them after that experience

To be honest, for me Android-based phones are the best :highfive:

Well depends on the budget of course, I can name a $1,000 phone but I don't have the money.

I like the LG G7 ThinQ or a V40 they are a good bang for buck. I am tired of glass phones though they break too easy, so I would put it in a case. For the price this phone offer so much.

---------- Post added at 06:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:41 AM ----------

What'd be nice is another HTC M8 style phone but more modern hardware and design but still metal back and dual speakers but also all glass screen, put the speakers under the glass somehow make the chin appear smaller.

Galaxy Note 20 is the best for me
[General Topics] cannabiscure:
Sure, if we have an unlimited budget I also will go for the Note 20 :)

Myself I won't spend more than $200 on a phone and no post paid, not getting it from a carrier since I only use very few minutes and mostly just wifi. Like right now my plan is 250 minutes or text a month for free, so I haven't had to spend even $10 on my cell service in at least 3 months :) Hence why I just buy my phones used and not more than $200 budget, anything more is a waste for me.

But if I didn't have access to a PC with broadband cable internet 24 hours a day it might be different for me.

Also I would always be worrying about my phone if it were that expensive. You can buy a used car or motorcycle for the same price as a Samsung Note 20!

I tried everything to get TWRP going, but it always replaces my TWRP Recovery with it Xiaomis own. Is there any way i can get an presistent TWRP recovery installation?

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] diggy128:
Hi to everyone.

I've been searching the web for an app (or even better service) what would display cpu / memory / sd actitity overlayed on top of all windows but couldn't find one.

Since Diamond has no dedicated activity leds onboard (other than those on the Dpad), I think it would be great to have some kind of display showing whether the cpu / memory / sd are used/accessed.

I have come with some possible "flavours":

1) Animated windows flag. Each part of the windows flag would animate to show activity. eg

Red part - CPU activity

Blue part - memory / Sd activity

Green part - wifi data transmition

Yellow part - Phone modem (3g, hsdpa, gprs, gsm) activity

2) An icon sitting near the energy icon (among others) changing color or a color bar as above displaying activity.

3) Super duper stuff! (though maybe not possible). Having each of the four leds in the Dpad display different activity. eg

Left led - CPU

Top - Memory

Right - Wifi

Bottom - Phone Data

Could even one of the above become reality? I think it would be awesome to have an app like this.

Thanx in advance for your response.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Deleted member 368662:
It's fine to do that on a pc, but on a phone that doesnt exactly have unlimited resources it'll increase your CPU usage and decrease your battery light

[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] ZVNexus:
You're not flashing according to the instructions. The "fastboot reboot fastboot" part doesn't reboot back into bootloader, which is what you're doing. It reboots into "fastbootd" aka fastboot daemon which lives in recovery. You can only flash system/product from there.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] frankieuk:
EDIT. Nope its not working.. I know what i am doing.. I wouldn't install if anyone is considering. you will need MSMtool to restore your device, be careful.

crDroid is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device also attempting to bringing many of the best features existent today. We're mainly based on LineageOS so use custom kernels compatible with them!

​

Features

Click for feature list

Always Have a full functional Backup. Just in case!

DOWNLOAD ROM

GAPPS: DOWNLOAD GAPPS

First time installing crDroid to your athene, or coming from another ROM:

** Make sure you're running a proper working Recovery (CWM or TWRP)

1) Copy crDroid zip, gapps zip to your device

2) Boot into Recovery

3) Wipe cache, system, & data (or just cache & system for a dirty flash).

4) Flash ROM

8) Flash gapps

9) Boot up

For root, AFTER you boot into the ROM, you can go back to recovery and install Magisk.

Upgrading from earlier version of crDroid:

The only difference between clean flash as above and upgrading is you just wipe system & cache, leaving data. Everything else is the same. ***Remember to always clean flash before reporting problems. Clean flashing is always the best method of ROM install.

KNOWN ISSUES

• Any app that depends on libc.so will crash. (Example: Brawl Stars)

Don't expect any support if you:

- are not running the included kernel

- have installed any mods such as Xposed!

- have modified system files

[Moto G4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] yoless42:
I clean flashed the latest version yesterday (clean flash: not only wiped but formatted all partitions: system, data, cache) and after setting basic things up I'm experiencing a strange effect: I'm using just one SIM card and after reboot I have to enter the PIN for that SIM and it is registering after a few seconds with the network. Everything seems okay so far - but after a few seconds it looses the network connection and I have either to reboot or sometimes turning on/off airplane mode is reviving the network. I checked the APN setting - all okay so far. Also network settings (4G/3G/2G) seem okay to me. The SIM card in another phone is working, as well the same SIM with either stock ROM or an older crDroid version is also okay - did I miss something? Are there different HW revisions of the phone (like modem version or such) i.e. global <> EU so I can't use this rom not at all?
[Moto G4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] joefidler:
Same here - I have two SIMs installed & enabled and lost network connection after a couple of minutes - and have not been able to connect again. I have previously used this phone and same SIMs, with other ROMs, to connect to networks ok.
[Moto G4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] yoless42:
I also tried various combinations of SIM cards in either slot - or both slots without success.

May I ask which HW version you have? I found my device to be a XT1642 (which is EMEA I think) and maybe it's just the wrong modem firmware (few years ago I had trouble with other devices and could solve it by flashing the proper modem firmware). AFAIK there are at least two more HW versions: XT1643 and XT1644 (maybe even more) which have been sold as "Moto G4 plus".

As soon as I find the time I will flash the stock firmware (which is working in my case) and check if I can extract the modem part from it just to see what happens - in all cases I do have root access so cross-flashing should be no issue

Update: crDroid does not contain modem firmware at all (only stock firmware is flashing modem) - and the installer says it's compatible with a lot of differnent devices (about a dozen XT16xx)
[Moto G4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] bill88t:
xt1642 is fine for me. I haven't made any calls but I never saw any disconnections.
[Moto G4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] joefidler:
My G4 Plus is an XT1642 (M1B89). Slot 1 has a Telstra (Australia) SIM and slot 2 an AT&T (USA) SIM in it. With this ROM the Telstra SIM connected once and has never reconnected to the network since. The slot 2 SIM appears to connect but I am unable to test that fully ($$$). I am also unable to turn off/deactivate either SIM.

I flashed firmware and EFS partitions from an old ArrowOS 9 backup that I know works, but that didn't help. So I then installed a backup I have of ArrowOS10 from the same dev (abandoned?) , and it works fine - connect/calling and SMS are ok.
[Moto G4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] yoless42:
Gentlemen,

now it's beginning to become curious: I was operating the phone with stock firmware for about two weeks (just needed an operational phone and not special features). Now I prepared to flash crDroid again and was preparing some things like: saving modem partition plus some more just in case they get lost.

I was putting crDroid and gapps on SD and cleaning all partitions (at least system and data) and all of a sudden both SIM slots are working (either SIM1 or SIM2 or even both) after flashing and setting up the phone? Even restoring my TItanium backed up apps was an easy piece of cake so I was up&running in less than 2 hrs

There is no reasonable explanation for that - except operating the phone with stock firmware a while would have corrected things?

In any case I'm now happy my good old G4 plus is operating a modern OS with all the features I expect (my other phone all have crDroid)

Hi, how are you?

But someday it will arrive for sure . Beyond that, excellent equipment, supports any application and game without problems or lags. Great screen, perfect audio, beautiful design. I am quite satisfied except for the updates because I really like modifying the system (modding). I bought it in Argentina together with your LG W7 watch.
