[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] toshiuser:
Hi,

after installing MIUI 12 on my Poco F2 Pro, I experience a weird problem with google chrome.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Switch off Auto Brightness (just to make sure, that the screen brightness stays constant) and manually set the brightness slider to a brighter setting and leave it there.

2. Disable Dark Mode (that's at least my setting)

3. Open chrome and go to e.g. google.com (or any other page with a bright background).

4. Wait a couple of seconds (scrolling and clicking is fine, but do not use the on-screen keyboard just for now) and observe the screen brightness. It's getting gradually dimmer and dimmer. It is not the screen time-out dimming (time-out is set to 2 min in my case).

5. Go to home screen and the screen suddenly gets brighter, i.e. it returns to it's normal brightness

6. Something similar can be achieved by opening the on-screen keyboard (google keyboard in my case) while in "chrome's dimmed state". The screen returns to it's normal brightness.

This problem seems to only exist with chrome. I googled and found a similar problem with huawei devices some years ago. But no working solution back then.

And strangely enough, I saw no post for Xiaomi or MIUI. Is it only my device or do you experience the same?

Do you have an idea what I should try in order to solve? I already did the usual stuff (delete cache/data, reinstall).

Thanks.

Nope. Does not do it for me
[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] toshiuser:
Thank you for trying it out. That's weird, though.

I will try ADB Fastboot Tools this weekend to delete the system app and reinstall as user app. Hope that makes a difference in my particular case.
[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] Wimdel:
Yes! I have the same problem. Really annoying, googled a bit for a fix but nothing worked. Ended up using Firefox browser for now. Hopefully there will be a fix in the future.
[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] toshiuser:
So, I deleted chrome (and some other apps and services that I do not need) via Szaki's ADB Fastboot Tools. After rebooting the phone, they were all gone, fine.

However, when I reinstall Chrome via Playstore, it reinstalls as system app (and shows the same dimming problem).

Is there any way to install Chrome as a User App (of course after deleting it via ADB Fastboot Tools)?
[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] Burs:
Closely related to screen dimming.. just a simple question: when screen dims just before the lock, can a tap be configured to just brighten the screen, and not actual tapping on something on the screen, like the button, or an option, or something that react to tapping? I just want to brighten the screen so it doesn't go off completely. Is that possible with MIUI itself, or by installing some 3rd party app, or xposed module, or whatever? Sorry for off topic. Thanks.
[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] yvessparks:
I have exactly the same problem, and as you stated, only with Chrome...any other app works fine. :( Thanks for starting this thread and trying to fix it...
[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] toshiuser:
I now use google chrome beta from play store. It does not show the dimming since it installs as user app. However, I would be very happy if this issue with the "original" chrome could be addressed soon by Xiaomi...

HI there guys, That is my problem, I am from Chile, my rog phone 2 got wet, the USB charging pins are burned, the phone does not turn on.

Where can I quote a motherboard?

I have not yet brought the phone to the Asus support, but already told me that they only change the complete component so I think that a motherboard repair is unattainable for me :(

[Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 Plus Questions & Answers] DonKyjote:
Good morning.

I would need help; wifi in the 5 Ghz band has not worked for a long time,

I have the LTE + Wifi tablet. ROM MIUI V10.3.2.0.ODJCNXM Stable

I can't get wifi to work on this band; it only works in 2.4 Ghz.

I have tried changing the frequency channel to 36, 44, etc; I have also changed the router frequencies from 80Mhz to 40Mhz and 20Mhz with no result. It does not occur to me what else can be done; install multiple ROMs; Chinese original and other EU versions; but all without result,

The wifi connects in low bands but without Internet access; it always keeps getting IP address and when it connects; you do not have Internet access; tested with various routers and different companies; I am starting to think that it could be a hadware problem; some help?

At the beginning of buying the tablet it worked well.

Did you even read anything?

If your decrypted already just wipe to factory reset flash xiaomi.eu and dfe.

Really not cool not doing the smallest research at all. Xiaomi.eu even says on their own site how to flash.

I have seen this many times now, and im relatively new to the site, to where some ppl seemed to be concerned and sometimes complain of cabs or roms installed on their phones....

Im sure that most of us understand the consequences when installing cabs and roms and make due.

Im proposing (if it doesn't not yet exist) a standard XDA disclaimer statement that can be linked to (a post somewhere on this forum) whenever a cab or rom is put up.

Thoughts?
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] Red_Acid:
Hi, all! :)

Saw this XDA article and decided to try these new Nord's live wallpapers on my OnePlus 7T.

It worked and I've liked these a lot, so I decided to create a Magisk module to use them instead of having to overwrite my original wallpapers. Since it works for me I thought that I should share it with the community.

Download : https://mega.nz/file/a0oShD5L#RFrOmut6Yezjuup75-quwf71dHz5gK8NrXe8ELd9jGQ

It works on OnePlus 7T but should also work on OP7, OP7Pro, OP7TPro, OP8 and OP8Pro. Try it out and let us know!
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] MrGimpGrumble:
Thanks for the effort but this did not work for me....
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] Red_Acid:
Does any error appear when you install the module in Magisk Manager?
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] MrGimpGrumble:
nope, it looked successful but after a reboot i still have older wallpapers. I even selected each one and set them as previous wallpapers just in case and still not working
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] Recoba20:
thanks bro
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] grandpajiver:
I did get them to apply but it only animates on the lock screen, not in the home screen when I swipe between pages. Is that normal? Using nova launcher.
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] Red_Acid:
Can't really understand why. Do they show up on the wallpaper customization instead of the previous ones - like in the image in the first post?

You're right, it doesn't animate in home screen, only on lock screen and on the transition from lock screen to home screen. I'm a user of Nova Launcher too so I went ahead and tested it with OnePlus Launcher and it also doesn't animate on home screen. Maybe it's the current behaviour (and even in a OnePlus Nord it doesn't animate) or it's a bug that occurs only in this context but I can't really tell since I don't have a device to test it.
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] Thebear j koss:
I believe these animate during unlocking of device then stop to be a static wallpaper like the miui animated planet walls that start in space and zoom into a static location background.

Sent from my OnePlus 7T using Thebear Blue XDA Labs
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] jsgraphicart:
Working perfectly for me. And yeah, it's just a short animation then locks into a static wallpaper when it's done animating. But that's probably how it's supposed to be.
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] donjamal:
works very well on OP7T, thanks!
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] jsgraphicart:
So I watched some videos of the Nord with the live wallpaper applied and the way it's SUPPOSED to work is the wallpaper is static on the lock screen and doesn't animate until the phone is unlocked. I don't know if that can be tweaked with this mod but that's how it's supposed to work.
[OnePlus 7T Themes, Apps, and Mods] Thebear j koss:
Yes, like the miui 12 wallpapers. They animate then zoom into a static image again.

If after using the magisk module, it doesn't work, go to the zip filer and find the OnePlus wallpaper resources apk and install it. It'll show up updated

Update instructions

If you want to update this app to a newer version, uninstall the old version and then install the latest using ADB!

Detailed info about the app

Every 5 minutes a the app will get the pressure from the sensor and store the data.

The weather notification is sent if 4 hPa are dropped in the past three hours.

The trend seen in the barometer is calculated in the past 6 hours.

For the first 6 hours the trend is going to be inaccurate because it doesn't have real data to compare.

Altitude is measured using the barometric formula, considering standard the pressure of 1013.25 hPa.

Issues

Automatic calibration not working on Samsung watches. I don't have a watch to test and I can't fix this bug unfortunally.

Auto calibration of altitude - explanation of the physics

I think this is cool to share :)

Air pressure depends on your altitude, but since air pressure changes normally, the readings are not accurate if the instrument is not correctly calibrated.

Manual calibration can be done... but it's just not practical! Automatic calibration is instead much better.

Let's start with the barometric formula:

Ph = P0 × e^(-α × h)

with constant α = (M × g) / (R × T)

The app gets your location, then finds thanks to the weather API the pressure P0 at sea level.

Once found P0, I can substitute it in the same formula to finally find the actual calibrated altitude

h = ln(Ph / P0) / - α

Ph is now the reading from the sensor and h is the current altitude

The calibration of the altitude highly depends on how accurate are the weather forecast provided...

From my testing I had a +- 10 m which is considerably good, but it depends from place to place.

ADB Tutorial

1) You will need to install ADB drivers to your computer. Suggested tutorial --> [OFFICIAL][TOOL][WINDOWS] ADB, Fastboot and Drivers - 15 seconds ADB Installer v1.4.3 | XDA Developers Forums (xda-developers.com)

Assuming you are using Windows, you should find a folder named "adb" inside the C drive with some files in it.

2) Place inside this folder the apk you want to install.

3) Enable "USB Debugging" on the device you want to install the apk on. This setting is hidden inside the "Developer Settings", that you can enable by pressing 7 times on the "Build Number" under "Device Info". There are many videos that show this.

4) Open the command prompt inside the "adb" folder. To do so using Windows, just press Shift + Right Click of the mouse and then select "Open PowerShell Window".

5) Connect your smartwatch to the PC with the usb cable.

6) On the PowerShell type "adb devices" without quotes and confirm with enter. Make sure the android device shows a message.

7) On the device press "Allow always" (or something like that).

8) On the PowerShell type "adb install Alti-Barometer1.15.apk" without quotes and confirm with enter.

DONE!

Thank you so much! I'd appreciate a little review here in the comments after you test it so I know if there are some areas that can be improved :D

Especially the thing i'm most concerned is battery life so if you find problems you know what to do!

Can shows get lococation access icon (status) and beep sound in Altimeter and Tile page ?

Thanks
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] calugj:
This project's purpose is to replicate almost identically both in terms of UI and functionality the Samsung Alti-barometer app, which is preinstalled on Samsung smartwatches.

This is the app I'm talking about -> https://galaxystore.samsung.com/geardetail/com.samsung.alti-barometer

I don't understand what you mean by beep sound (what's the beep for?) and location icon (you mean that the app should display an icon when it gets the location?), especially because I don't think the original app has these features.
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] calugj:
Final Update

The latest update features a new UI for the tile.
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] tom.android:
Thanks for your work, Can we access the app from tile and the full app can keep alive (not close itself till we close it.)

from my Suunto 7

and the last quest why altitude num from tile not the same as app itself. (from my picture --3m & --1m)
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] calugj:
1) Click on tile added

2) I managed to fix that.

NOTE: Your issue might also be related to always on. If you have always on disabled, after some seconds the display will lock. With this fix, if you turn your wrist (or click a button, or touch the screen), the app will return visible instead of showing the clock.

If you have always on enabled... No issues either because always on is supported and the app will keep open.

3) That's because the tile does not show real time data, while the app does.

This app collects data in the background every five minutes. This data serves for: pressure trend, notification alert and graphs. The value you see in the altimeter and barometer page are instead real time data, polled and computed instantly.

The tile shows the last collected data from the background service so what you see in the tile is at worst five minutes old.

It's not beneficial for battery life to have high refresh rate tiles... and for that there's the application! :)

Why v1.7 is not calibrated? please help. (After installed 24 hrs.) THANKS
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] calugj:
This is strange cause I didn't change anything on the background service from last update.

If you followed the installation instructions from original post I'll suggest try checking again these things:

1) Go to "Settings" > "Apps & Notifications" > "App info" > "Alti-Barometer" > "Permissions" and make sure that "Location" is enabled

2) watch has to be connected to the internet, it doesn't matter if through WiFi, through 4G or trough your phone's bluetooth (so no airplane mode)

3) watch's location can depend on phone's location. Try checking if both are active in the settings (but I assume they both are because it worked for you yesterday)

4) as a last step I'll suggest to reboot... Most of the times that solves any issues :)

Keep in mind calibration is set every 4 hours so if one of these actually solved your problem you'll notice it after some time!

If it still doesn't work let me know because it is strange :confused:

Storm Warning Notification is OK.

we have 7 day Weather Forecast,

During 3 – 5 Aug, people in the whole country should beware of severe conditions and stay tuned for the weather update. All ships should proceed with caution and should keep ashore including keeping away from thundershower bra bra bra...

and I 've trid to clean new installation hope auto calibration work again.

[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] calugj:
I'll definitely have to check what's going on... However one thing that bothers me is that from the weather provider portal I can see that today were made 2 API requests... So somebody has this feature working. I'll dig more and update you if I find something. Also the fact that currently I don't have a phisical watch to test it apart from the emulator doesn't help :confused:
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] tom.android:
finally calibrated by V1.7 , after 4 hrs of Clean install . But don't known why minus altitude value.
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] calugj:
Last calibrated was at 18:10 and the altitude +8 m should be more or less correct I guess. What happened in your case is that air pressure in your location increased as happens naturally during the day, tricking the altimeter to think that you went lower on altitude. Probably what's going to happen at 22:10 is a new calibration that should show accurate altitude. From my side I can't do anything about this, It has to do on how accurate the weather API are in your location and on how the pressure changes throughout the day. In days where air pressure is pretty stationary you won't notice it :)

Consider the altimeter value with a precision of 10 meters on raw value. Delta value (like if you want to measure how tall a building is) are precise instead!
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] calugj:
News on the automatic calibration bug

I tested the app with the emulator and managed to fix that issue.

I'll try to explain what the problem was.

This app doesn't use real time GPS for location, it uses instead the so called "coarse location", that is based on cellular towers. The reasons are simple: the app doesn't need the metric precision given by the GPS, and "coarse location" is much less energy consuming.

Right after every reboot, the system location is a "null" value, meaning it is not usable for my app. At this stage the app couldn't calibrate the altimeter.

Then after approximately half an hour, the system location started giving usable values for the app and after that moment the calibration worked every single time.

So in conclusion, after a reboot, the app wants to calibrate the altimeter, but until the system location is not "null", it won't and there's no guarantee that the system will update it soon.

Solving this issue was pretty easy: I had to manually refresh the location right when needed.

Now it

should

work as expected. :)

By the way I moved the download link directly to xda attachments

At the time of the edit of this post I just reuploaded ver 1.8... I forgot to replace one thing I used on the debugging phase
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] calugj:
I have found another bug. If the location takes a lot of time to be collected (which might happen), the background service will lock, showing a constant notification that is impossible to dismiss... This is not a normal behaviour and I will make a fix hoping that it will be the last. :)

EDIT: Updated

[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] tom.android:
But Auto Calibrate Time show delay ....about one hour.
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] calugj:
I didn’t notice this in my testings... the time shown should be synced with the clock so it should consider timezones.. At the moment I’m unable to check again. I’ll check it in a week time.
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] calugj:
I tested it on the emulator and I didn't find any issues on the 4 hours between calibrations.

I'll try to assume what might have happened to you.

The calibrations are set every 4 exact hours.

The calibration needs an internet connection and a valid location, so if for whatever reason one of those cannot be acquired, the calibration is set to pending and will complete once the requirements are met.

You said the calibration was done after 6 hours... That's probably because after 4 hours either the internet connection or the location were not available and the calibration was set to pending.

Once the requirements were met the calibration finally happened and that's why it was done at a non precise 4 hours dealy.

That's my explanation based on my testing, let me know if you had more of these issues during this past week!
