[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] GriFolle:
Thanks to yours/panosha suggestions I'm trying to cook my first rom...

I learned a lot from this thread/forum, but I don't know yet what can I do for emprove free ram at startup...

I've undertood that:

-It's better to cook roms "as clean as possible": more space into the rom memory will speedup all processes and then consequentially reduce ram memory usage.

-All apps really needed would be cook in the rom bacause any app, if installed via cab by the user, uses more ram than the same app cooked into the rom.

So: wich OEMs do you suggest to remove (in terms of ram use)? The utility of an app is something personal and I wouldn't discuss it here...I asking only if you know wich apps uses ram if installed in the rom...

i.e. I know that audiomanager running in background and drain memory, is the same for volume control, usbtopc, conn. setup, ecc..?

Moreover, are there other ways to reduce the memory drain when you cook a rom?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] alncool:
RAM is used by process loaded into memory so i guess you have to remove useless OEM that add services or background process on startup. You can make some registry tweak to choose what process you want to enable/disable but i don't know where is located the main registry file in the kitchen...

By the way how does the kichen work to compile whole package ? Is it compiled by name ?

If i make two package:

PACKAGE_A

-xxxx-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxxx.rgu

PACKAGE_B

-yyyy-yyy-yyy-yyy-yyyy.rgu

that add/modify the same key with their own value .. Which one at last will be written ? The B one ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Dpakrawal:
Hay could somebody tell me, what does the SQM package in the SYS folder refer to ???..

I cooked a ROM today... Everythin went as planned.. But am unable to connect to a WiFi network.. Whenever i try to connect, it hows as connecting and after sometime shows as the network isint available.. Any ideas !!??

is it cuz I removed the SQM package, or some other reason !!?

EDIT :

I also removed the BTFTP Folder.. Could that be the reason !!?

how can I cook a new version of radio in the ROM?

For instance, with a .05 ROM, can I dump it, change the radio to .08, then re-cook it into a ROM?

thanks a lot!

How can I disable/delete the customer feedback and the first steps??
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] GriFolle:
Mmm...that's ok: I simply used the last one panosha's rom os/xip/sys (so I haven't port anything) but now I don't know what I have to do:

-When I click "BUILD" and the program ask me to choose a system/radio/splash...file: usually I set just the system and for it I select "os-new.nb" that's in the kitchen folder (created by the "begin" process). I always do the same or now have I choose os.nb located into rom folder?

PS:last one thing..if I want to upgrade the sys folder too: have I to replace ALL folder or I can just update some of their contents?

Thank you.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] titipsx:
Hi all,

I'm trying to do a similar thing but for the

PACKAGE_Diamond_EzInput_HTC_ALL

after reading and learning a bit I was able to extract files from the rom image but I really can't figure out how i can go from the pain PACKAGE_Diamond_EzInput_HTC_ALL folder to create a cab to install it in the Diamond ( I have made a mistake a compromised the original keyboard installation on my Diamond :( )

thank you for any suggestion...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] GriFolle:
Anyone can help?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] alncool:
Of course you can with the kitchen. After running !COOK.bat file to create your own cooked rom, you'll have the application ROMBuild that you must configure with all the part of your choise :

-OS

-Splash screen

-Radio

-Hard spl

Can a chief tell me which folder in SYS can be safely removed ?

Or maybe it would be great to help me by updating information in my previous post, where i list all folders.

I'm wondering about :

-Enterprise* : maybe it's about VOIP dlls ?

-Catalog* : dunno what is it about yet ... no idea

-IPSECVPN* : same thing

-FWUPDATE* : same thing

Well thank's a lot

Please someone could help me on this as soon as possible ?

Thaking you in advance

Edit : Sorry I found the missing dll thank you

That works fine now ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Dpakrawal:
I'm also looking for these answers.. It would be great if someone could answer this.. Could somebody also explain what does the SQM folder in the SYS folder refer to !!??...

And hay could somebody provide me a link to the SQL 3.5 version !!??... Or could somebody just tell me whether just copying the SQL 3.5 folder after dumping one of the cooked roms (like swift, panosha, etc).. and pasting it in the sys folder of the ROM that I'm cooking would help !!??..

And could somebody also advice as to how do i remove the customer feedbacks ??.. I removec ceipui.exe.. this removes the program, but it does not remove the customer feedback links under settings...

Kindly help..

Can I use a already cooked rom for base rom ? 'cause i'm so lazy to create packages xD
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] suiller:
it depends... if the rom is a loked one like for ex from Bepe you can't... instead AlphaZero doesn't lock his romz

bye,

davide

ps: great tutorial, perhaps I've to restart cooking too :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Unchained:
I guess the new ROMs are locked.... But I prefer to use the latest HTC ROM as BaseROM
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] suiller:
me too, but the SYS is a bit outdated :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] suiller:
thx panosha, you are always a step in front :D

after many years without cooking, I've decided to begin again... even if my mind is a bit outdated (wm5) :cool:

I'll post here my "tricks" also because I'll use this kitchen, so they are adapted to this surface.

Bye,

Davide
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Htc86:
Very nice gesture, panosha! Thank you!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] salada2k:
Hey! Thanks a lot for sharing Panosha :) You are awesome, friend.

I find it funny though in an ironic kind of way, that one of the reasons I haven't started cooking is because your ROMS are so good and have everything I need so I never get round to starting to cook my own, and now here you are sharing what I need to cook my own ROMS! It's funny because I will probably still use yours anyway. Maybe I need a second device to start playing with as my main one needs to be working always!

Again, thanks again for sharing - the Diamond community OWES YOU!

[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] goodjuju:
Is it possible to relock the bootloader while keeping the build.prop edits for miracast and tether?
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] sd_shadow:
Sure possible but just as likely to soft brick.

Magisk should be able to hide the unlocked bootloader.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] goodjuju:
According to this article hiding bootloader is no longer possible.

https://www.xda-developers.com/safetynet-hardware-attestation-hide-root-magisk/

Am I missing anything?
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] sd_shadow:
Google cannot just throw a switch, and every Android device does this.

This requires Motorola to implement the changes to their updates.

It's possible that they have, but Motorola is normally very slow to make big changes like this.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] goodjuju:
There in lies the problem. Motorola has stopped its updates for G5 Plus, last update was Feb1, 2019. Planned obsolescence! IMO too soon.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rynak44:
Hi all,

for context: My grandparents (93) are happily using WhatsApp since a few years but using their tablets is becoming more difficult. They accidentally mess stuff up and don't find back without help. We locked all the settings (password protected with some 3rd party app) and removed most options from the quick settings (pull down menu) but we cannot get rid of the brightness slider. They frequently change the brightness to 0 and can't bring it back up again. They are currently using an Acepad A121 for which there seem to be no rooting possibilities; we would buy a new device if it helps.

Do you have any ideas or resources for this scenario? I found was a site by "konnekt" but that isn't helpful (good advice but nothing about brightness). I also read that it should be possible with GravityBox but I am not sure what device I need for that.

Best

Rynak
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rynak44:
Thanks! I'll just look for a tablet on the TWRP Devices (twrp.com/Devices) list and it should probably work? Or do I have to check a Magisk or GravityBox compatibility list too?

[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] jeffgojeff:
Hi all,

I've got an s20+ on AT&T in the US, I've noticed lately the speeds when I'm connected to 5g are horrendous, but on 4g LTE are significantly higher. I've done a bit of research to see what my options were, and most people are able to go to Settings > Connections > Network Mode and specify which modes to use, but my phone is completely missing the Network Mode option in the Connections menu. I've done a little digging through the developer options, but there doesn't seem to be a way to enable this option there either. I've also downloaded the 'Forced Network Mode' app, but I don't really understand the options available. I've played around with a few of those options, but haven't found a viable solution.

For clarity, i've been using Ookla's speed test to verify the significant speed changes from 5g to 4g LTE, and have yet to find a way to enable Network Mode on my device.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] tfuentebuena:
Hello. I have been using Xiaomi.eu 20.6.18 based on MIUI 12.1

In a few days I think that they will release MIUI 12.0 based stable release but my phone has ARP so I think that downgrading will brick it, don't it?

Anyway, this weekly ROM is working well at the moment but I would like to use the stable version someday. I have some doubts so I will put numbers in them:

1. Can I go back to MIUI 12.0 based ROM while using MIUI 12.1 based ROM or not? without triggering anti-rollback

2. Can I switch to Pixel Experience (for example) which is using Android 10? It is a newer version of Android but I don't know how MIUI ARP handles it

3. If the point 2 answer is 'yes', I suppose that ARP is gone (at least Xiaomi's one) so, can I install Xiaomi.eu MIUI 12.0 from Pixel Experience? (I will be downgrading I know)

Thanks all of you for your future answers, and sorry for the number of questions. Any doubt about my explanation or something just ask
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] haroonharish9:
Arb only matters if u go back to very old version of miui ie, 9 and some version of miui 10....it doesn't matter with custom ROMs also...u can also check ur current arb status
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] Sidgup1998:
No arb was implemented with miui 9.5.19 (global stable), so u can go till this version without bricking ur phone.

As u r on latest beta u have an index value of 4.

I'm currently on stable miui 11.0.3.0

I want to try xiaomi.eu miui 12 20.6.18 (latest build).But if I didn't like it,then can i return to stable miui 11 without bricking my device?

As i understand from previous comments,I won't brick my device as long as i'm returning to version 9.5.19 or after that.

But still i would want to confirm this.Please answer this question.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] umair42:
Anyone?Please.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] Sidgup1998:
Yes u can go easily.

I will recommend to go with fast boot method if u plan returning to miui 11

(I've used miui 12 20.6.18 eu build and successfully returned to miui 11 without bricking)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] umair42:
Thanks for the reply.Can I use recovery method to return to miui 11?

And how was miui 12 20.6.18?Was it better than miui 11?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] Sidgup1998:
Yes u can use the recovery method for returning back to miui 11.

Why i was recommending the fast boot method?

Bcoz I've seen if u flash global miui after flashing china based/eu roms, u cannot change ur region to other country other than china. Obviously this can be fixed by editing build.prop or flash region fix but u will have to root in the 1st case.

But u can try recovery method brother.

Yes miui 12 is better than 11 bcoz of new privacy features, ios style control center, no miui optimization api.

[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] scaredy-cat:
Have you noticed random web page freezes (around 10 seconds), when writing posts using Google Chrome with Samsung Keyboard, Spell Checking on? Not browser, just the web page.

I even noticed a couple of freezes when browsing through online stores, and I think it's related to a keyboard, because I brought it up when changing product quantity numbers.

Spell checking also appears to be broken. When word is underlined indicating there's spelling error, clicking word only shows empty box, this leads me to believe it's related to freezes.

If you experienced it, have you figured out a way to fix this?

When writing long posts, these occasional freezes can wreak chaos, because while page is frozen, any additional words you type and accidental edits you make, appear after page unfreezes. It also wastes time, because if you're editing something in the middle of the text, you can't continue writing, and have to wait for unfreeze.

Off-topic question:

When writing a long post, accidentally hitting back or home button can be upsetting - the post is gone. Can you make browser remember these posts, so you can return and continue writing? So far my solution is to select all and copy, which is tedious.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] scaredy-cat:
Update

I noticed Chrome freezes randomly even without opening Samsung keyboard, simply browsing the web and page freezes. I also thought it's not the browser but the web page, but opening tab switcher while the page is frozen and opening a new tab

sometimes

(when the page freezes randomly while browsing the web), freezes entire browser, after around 10 seconds browser unfreezes. Any fix suggestions or what can be causing this? Tried wiping cache, but didn't help, I don't think reinstall will help, but I'll try it after some backing up.

Try this test, browse, XDA for example, through Chrome on your S20 devices for a weak, no PC or other devices or apps, write posts, etc, and

report your results here

. I also don't have any ad-blocking/ad-free, so to reproduce this enable ads as well.

Also, try using it with Samsung keyboard to maybe make problem more reproducible. Enable spell checking in

keyboard settings

, so words become underlined. Also enable dark mode.

I'm worried maybe it's RAM? Or SSD?

Hope not.. * sigh *

Edit

Searched the web more thoroughly this time, and apparently this is a big issue. Google search:

s20 chrome freezing

.

Some think it's related to 120 Hz mode, but then report it's freezing on 60 Hz as well, so seems like not refresh rate related. People even report this freezing occurs on Android system WebView powered apps.

No fix yet.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] joranflores:
Hi guys, does charging the battery up to 80% only really prolong battery life? Does it also apply when fast charging our Oneplus 8 Pro? Because afaik, when fast charging from 15% to 80% it is where the battery is hot and when it reach 80% it will just switch to normal charging speed. Please enlighten me. Tia.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] travle:
That's what I've heard before. 80% is the cutoff for any fast charging/warp charge I believe. I thought in a review I seen that this phone cut off warp charging at 90%. It is to preserve battery life maybe by not overcharging. But not 100%. The phone has an option in settings called Optimized Charging to help prolong battery life based on your usage pattern. I think someone stated turning this on may hinder Warp Charging.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dracozny:
Apples to oranges but for Lithium batteries maybe not. Tesla's Battery management system restricts charging to 80% behind the scenes in order to extend battery service life. The ideal charging discharging for most Lithium based batteries from my experience is 80/20. outside of that range induces heating and cell shorting.

Hey guys im new and all to this site but I really need some help.

So I recently purchased the TD. But my question is, if it is possible to export my sms messages from my old HTC SPV C550 to my new TD? I've tried a lot of these smsbackup tools but none of them seem to work on my spv (never updated the rom on the spv nor wm upgrade).

thx in advance
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] sudsboy:
how about PIM backup. I use it for SMS and it work. MMS doesn't however.

Also try using backup software in TD box to backup from old phone and restore in new phone. I don't know if it'll install thought.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] qqqsd:
Yeah i tried PIM PPCPimBackupV2.8_wm2003se.zip

but when i try to boot it on my spv, nothing happens i see it running in task manager though. :/ the TD isn't the problem, the problem is getting my messages of my spv.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] mastah:
Maybe its u using a wm2003 Prog.

on a smartphone? i think u need a sm edition (at least wm5/6)

I dont think that it works on ur TD, coz of the different paths etc.

SMS arent made to transport to another device.

And i heard, thats a bad Idea to recover a backup on a different

device or rom

So i think the badest thing u can do, its from a sm to a ppc :-)
