[General Questions and Answers] Raiz:
Hi,

Nice to hear from you :).

I'm sorry that you bought something that didn't pleased you. Some people aren't bothered at all by all the restrictions and all the stuff you said above, but IMO you made the right decision. Samsung are all about making you buy, from the in-OS ads to the short support (which has been a bit lengthened recently). But I think once you get a taste of what Google has to offer with its own OS, you can't get back to the previous experience and don't feel a downgrade.

It's all specs and power now, but I think that if UI, support and features aren't here, your phone won't be good. If I knew that the Pixel 5 would have a battery this large (rumored at 4000 mhA), I would've waited before buying my OP8.

I hope you still enjoy your Pixel 3 tho, and I hope it will last :)

Have a great day

g530, using android 5.0.2

i wanted a simple lockscrren app, as all i want to customize is to remove the carrier logo and the phone shortcut

but playstore just has some fancy ones with lots of useless features to me

and the really good ones on xda are no longer developed and/or compatible with my device

it should be free, or cost very little

thanks!

Hey guys i know there are many forums that discuss this but do you really see a difference in battery life between the two? (60hz both) for me the battery life is the same...
[OnePlus 7T Pro (Regular & McLaren) Q & A] alexkalicharan:
I left mine on 1440p 90Hz since day one and I have never depleted the battery on my day to day use. Usually by the end of the day I have anywhere between 50% to 30% left before I plug it in to charge.

Battery life is great using 60 or 90 but mines set to auto using auto90 app. I use fhd to. I lose 7.63 percent a hour screen on currently.

Hello everyone, first a greeting

and then I wanted to ask for information, having just bought an android car radio for my dacia sandero, and I found some problems:

1) bluetooth connects me ONLY to apple android phones but to no ODBII devices, I have tried 2 without success.

From here they go into settings I can't understand which car radio model is mine, Android 10 MCU STx, 8-inch display I try to attach some photos, if someone can help me with bluetooth or even flash the rom.

Asking sellers until now is unable to help me.

Thank you in advance.

Looks like you're looking for support for a new purchase or recent purchase. In the first instance, what does the seller suggest when requesting support?

If the seller is unable to help you with your purchase, take some time to read through the forums, you might find a number of answers to your questions, with a little effort. Be prepared to give back, contributing - writing about your finds to help others.

I noticed your original post in Android auto has changed from this duplicate post, but that doesn't change your involvement to do some ground work and using the search function.

XDA isn't paid support, if your seller isn't providing you what you need, you have to make some effort - like searching.
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
It´s always the same issue...

Pull out the OBD dongle

Switch off BT on any smartphones you are connected with the head unit

Delete the BT connection to the head unit on all phones.

Delete all BT connections from your head unit.

Do a cold boot

Connect the OBD dongle to the car

Connect AT FIRST the OBD dongle and test the connection.

After the connection is established reboot the unit

Wait until OBD is connected

Connect NOW your smartphone by activating BT on your phone and search from the head unit.
[Android Head-Units] kalamot1962:
no success

HI.

I tried the suggestion without success, deleted the cell phones also restored the network settings at the time of the BT search (made from cellular settings) the ODBII device is found, but at the time of the connection it disappears and returns to the main search screen.
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
Did you set the PIN correctly? Mostly for these OBD devices is 1234 or 0000.
[Android Head-Units] kalamot1962:
no success

yes in car radio bt (phone) setting is presetted 1234, maybe better change in 0000?

time ago, i try to connect with my cell phone if isn't in mistake the pin is 1234.

cell with odbII
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
That depends on the BT dongle.
[Android Head-Units] kalamot1962:
BT problems

I try to connect again with the mobile phone to verify the PIN of the ODBII, after I try again with the car radio,

or if better i can download/use another application to setup the BT

I would like to try other ROM if possible, since there are other problems

1) the cell phone usb dongle is recognized, but it connects ONLY in 2G / 3G despite being a 4G with reduced speeds of course.

2) the BT menu is very brainy compared to that of a mobile phone, I don't understand the reason to put it under the TELEPHONE menu instead of elsewhere.

PS. if u can do we can connect with messanger cam or whatsapp to see the situation in realtime.

(i'm italian)
[Android Head-Units] kalamot1962:
I try with BT cellphone, and the password / pin is 1234 not 0000 the same as that set on the car radio but in the latter it does not connect
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
All Android radios have a reduced BT setup.

You won´t find any other implementations.... and no, you can´t change the BT app, this is dependent of the hardware.

Check the Alwinner threads with MCU: STM*** for any updates regarding your unit. I don´t know if there are custom ROM available.

...and no, no support via PN/Messanger... sorry.
[Android Head-Units] kalamot1962:
No problem for support its only not important chance, for MCU i don't know where i can find upgrade.

but a bit question, ROM Custom or Not i know what mean, but MCU what do? that dont understand it.

Custom rom? yes if possible but for me if work fine i do downgrade, somethime the ROM downgrade its better than

upper version.
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
MCU: This is the controller for your main unit where the SOC is mounted on. You need to stay on STM*** what is mentioned in the system settings. May be there is a newer one, but to be honest... Please ask in the related threads. We don´t need tons of threads about one and the same units.

Firmware: This is the Android and customer software which is installed on your unit. Please read the related threads...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] novicefedora:
Is it possible to access moden through Android API? If not, how can I do it?

I want to make a signal jamming app, for that I need to send a noise signal at any of the uplink and/or downlink GSM, etc frequencies. As an Android phone operates on these frequencies, it could be possible, but it's range might be only few centimetres. I've searched Android API, but they don't seem to allow this control over the modem.

How can I access the modem or how can I create this signal jamming app?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheExploitedOne:
The modem partition is usually located as /firmware and a symlink to /firmware-modem. You can find many tutorials to help get started with the Android SDK, etc to develop an app
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] novicefedora:
Will those directories have binary files or source files? Will having access to them and knowing how to develop an app with Android SDK allow me to develop a signal jamming app?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheExploitedOne:
The modem partition is read-only (write protected) so a simple remount to read-write may fail. They do contain binaries and data to communicate with cell towers, sim, etc..

To develop and app may work with lots of research to better understand what your doing

Got a MECOOL KI Pro S905 that was lying around after I did many firmware flashes, from Android to Android TV to OpenELEC.

One day I flashed it and the remote stopped working so I left it. I've come back to it wanting to fix it but I'm lost.

The remote is a IR one, the batteries are fine and I can see the IR sensor on the remote flash, but for some reason the box doesn't react to any of the button presses. I've tried using Amlogic burn tool to flash the original stock firmware but the remote doesn't work, even after a few flashes to some ATV roms and still nothing.

I tried to play a movie (.avi file) with windows media player on the diamond but it doesnt work. Which format must the movie have to play with windows media player? Is there other good programs beside coreplayer mobile? I dont want to buy coreplayer, do i have to install a codec on the diamond?

Do i have to convert to a special format, i transfered a movie sample file (.avi) from my computer to the diamonds internal memory but when i try to open the movie with windows media player, it doesnt work, what should i do?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] batalyaws:
Try the previous version of Coreplayer, TCPMP. It's freeware.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] keyz86:
use TCPMP, theres a speical version of it for WM6.1 devices, plays any file format you throw at it and super smooth with more options than you can shake a stick at!

oh, and its FREE!

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Sergio PC:
Agree. Hands down best media player. Smooth as it gets!:)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] raptorgt:
Thanks for your help :) i will try TCPMP, but should i just transfer the movie to diamond and then open it with TCPMP?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] raptorgt:
Yes it works now, how do i zoom in with TCPMP to remove the two black lines that are often in movies or do i have to somehow change the resoultion of the movie so it fits the screen?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] keyz86:
when you install TCPMP you can set file assosiations so you can just click on the file itself to play, but of corse you can also go the long way around and open TCPMP first :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] keyz86:
yes, i use ImTOO Mpeg encoder to change resoloutions, i personally find that encoding files to .mpeg at 500 bit rate and 320x240 does a perfect job for me, doesnt take up much space on the internal storage and you dont notice any loss of quality playing it at full screen
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Zekee:
i tried the TCPMP player.. although its good and convinent but it still can't play some .flv files downloaded from the internet, and the interface wasn't as perfect/ pretty.

I took on a more hassle approach. Downloaded PSPVC (a freeware that is able to convert most types of movie files into mp4 format) converted my movie files into mp4 format and then play them using the default windows media player 10. Works perfectly!

Did you tried to install miui 12 on redmi note 7? Because i am going to try it
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] Z750z:
Unlock bootloader , install custom recovery and than you will be able to flash it. Or in the stock updater click 5 times on 11 and than three dots in the corner you will see the option to choose update package.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] N1ck474:
You can't install MIUI 12 packages from Stock Recovery, you're using the EEA version of the ROM and the packages on XDA are China Builds (and Closed Beta, you don't have the permission to flash it), you have two ways: You can unlock your bootloader, install a custom Recovery that support all MIUI stuff (like OrangeFox) and flash the .zip from the custom Recovery OR just wait for the OTA update (it will take some time, at least 2/3 weeks).

As far as i know, there is not actually possible to install any custom rom on SPRD head units.

- You can use Joying Extra Tools App

- Modify some systen apps and internal software modding (Not too much)

[Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers] secondhand2:
Hi

I apologise if this is already answered elsewhere but from what I read answers vary.

If a used unlocked pixel is bought and a different carrier is used than the one originally used, do ota updates still occur automatically or do they need to be done manually?

If ota updates do work with a different carrier does that mean the updates come from google or the carrier for this phone?

Thanks!
[Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers] secondhand2:
Hi

Well updates come from google directly and I didn't have any issues switching carriers so all good. Quite a departure from my lg v20 which I like too...but things much simpler with pixel 3a, 3a xl.

None of the waiting around for infrequent updates/upgrades. I'm assuming with time a simple root procedure will be available also, it's probably already simple but haven't tried looking at that yet.

Still like my v20 hardware but the grass looks greener over here (despite no replaceable battery).

The pixel 3a xl is very nice to use so far! Hope google keeps these kinds of mid range phones (in price only) in it's future product offerings. Seems you get good hardware AND software support but everybody on this forum already knows that already, lol, I'm just catching up and finding out - hopefully no arm twisting curve balls come up when rooting and modding if I ever go that way.

Cheers
