Go to settings, app management, app list, press the 2 dots in the top right corner, press show system, scroll down to OplusGpudriver, it should now show as version 0.0474.0 instead of 0.1
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] MeTheRebel:
Yeah the app updates but the driver is still at version 444
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] TheInfiniteAndroid:
No idea, I was at 0.1 & went to 0.0474.0
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] MeTheRebel:
What I'm trying to clarify is that the apk version doesn't matter if it doesn't do it's job and actually update the opengl driver to 474.
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] TheInfiniteAndroid:
Oh my apologies so it shows as 474 on your app list but shows as 444 on device info apps?
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] MeTheRebel:
Yeah so basically the apk does nothing. I guess the update process just isn't executing on the global versions
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kevinireland11:
My actual phones adreno gpu driver is still on 0.1, installing that oplus app does nothing
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] TheInfiniteAndroid:
Yeah it seems the the .apk is working on the global variants, it displays that it has updated when in fact it hasn't, if I'm understanding correctly
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kevinireland11:
Yeah I'm not actually to sure what way it works to be honest but I'll try read into it a bit more, if you have any more updates on this just drop a post lol
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kevinireland11:
How does the app update itself?
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] MeTheRebel:
The downloaded application (.apk file on recent pages) is updating the version of system application OplusGpudriver from 0.1 to 0.0474 version when it is installed, as it should, as it is doing on the chinese version of this phone. This does not matter. It is just an application, maybe just a shell left over after the application has executed. On the Chinese versions of the phones(I assume) the Chinese marketplace triggers the application to run after it downloads and installs just like on a windows machine when you click and install an .exe file. What we are doing by installing the application is just updating an empty shell without it executing. The whole point of the update is to update the opengl driver version from the release version of 444 to the current stable and optimized opengl version of 474. Download AIDA64 app from google play store and check under Display options if that number has changed. (I already posted a screenshot in the thread)

Also "ADRENO GRAPHICS DRIVERS" system application is still at 0.1 and it hasn't been touched from the current reports. Ignore it. What we currently need is a way to trigger the application to upgrade the driver - not, and I repeat, not some stupid placeholder system application.

[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Texan1:
So... are we saying this GPU driver update apk works or not?!
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kevinireland11:
Lol I don't think people actually no
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] TheInfiniteAndroid:
The .apk is doing what it's supposed to, installing, however it's not executing, so the driver isn't actually updating as it's just sat there with files that aren't being used.

But basically no, it isn't working

I downloaded the file on my european phone, so far everything seems fine. The screen seems to be more responsive, but this might be superstition.

I ran a post benchmark... Not a pre, sorry

Just delete Update, or Go on deinstall and the original file will be installed.

1.install the apk

2.active developer mode

3.open settings->additional setting->developer options->game driver preference-> tap on apps list->set to prerelease driver

4.done

Selamat mencoba
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] MeTheRebel:
Let's make one thing perfectly clear before you all start going ape**** since you can't read the rest of the thread:

The .apk has nothing to do with these options. I don't have the apk installed and I still have these options - Why? Because (I assume since I didn't notice it last update) they're a part of the latest phone update.

The prerelease driver does the following:

"(It) Only matters for developers who wants to check their games for compatibility during testing." (Google search "Prerelease driver android")

This doesn't even mean it is a new set of drivers and it could even be a 444 prerelease version which is slower because all of the developer releated options are turned on like for example extensive logging which is used for debugging and slows down the performance.

I don't know how to check the prerelease driver version since AIDA64 gives me the same version number.

Please stop spreading misinformation. Either someone figures out how to force an install or we wait until Oppo incorporates the latest update on global versions. (Which is most likely going to be on Android 11 release in October/November)
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] goodburner:
I chose the game driver option in developer settings and Aida shows 474.

When u use HEIC files format in the camera the photos won't get backup to Google photos. Anyone having the same problem?
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro  Questions & Answers] ted presley:
That's Google Photo problem, it doesn't support HEIC format.
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro  Questions & Answers] skw5115:
I have the same issue. Alternatively, you can go to the gallery app and upload photos to Google Photos in bulk. They'll be converted to .Jpg though. Else you can just change the format that pictures are taken in by default
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro  Questions & Answers] Lesiuk:
HEIC photos from xiaomi don't have exif data and that's why Google photos don't like them. Xiaomi knows about issue for few months.

Google's closed the loophole and apparently blocks HEIF though Android 10 offers it

hello all

i have a gigaset GS 270 plus, and everything i try to do on it fails

i backed up the data on my sd card using the recovery , but on restoring on an identical phone (trait for trait) it says "the backup file is out of date please rebackup your data

on the source phone i tried the same process and it went on smoothly but i cant risk formating, rooting , enabling adb, restoring and removing pasword because of the above problem.

i have 13 backup files of up to 25 gigabytes which i am unable to recover or decrypt on a pc even following the commands given on linux from this thread

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2408788&page=2

the phone connects in fastboot mode but not in adb mode

Fortunately it is a mediatek device and i have tried to back up the rom using this tutorial

https://android.stackexchange.com/q...nd-full-rom-without-root-for-mediatek-devices

but all to no avail

i tried a readback of my rom using help from [MENTION=4646731]Alecxs[/MENTION] using WwR MTK v2.51 from Ilya Aleksandrovich

but upon creating the scatter file it gives an error

https://ibb.co/Sd3HTfM

please i need anyhelp whatsoever to recover the files from the phone either by a readback or by unlocking the phone or any other method which i have not thought of

Thank you in advance!!!

Maybe that device has secure boot preventing SP Flash Tool from readback, try another download agent

we can help you porting TWRP but we can't help on readback, you are the only one who has physical access. if you follow the tutorial and it fails, maybe the tutorial is not working for this device

if you are using windows 10, try another PC with Windows 7 or try SP Flash Tool for Linux

edit: there are other methods for creating scatter file. post the output of fastboot getvar all
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alecxs:
you have two devices of same model? great, let's root the spare phone!

take away the source phone for now (the important one)

Do on the target phone only:

WARNING: factory reset - all data lost!

1) unlock the bootloader

- enable developer options by tapping build number seven (7x) times (in settings - about phone)

- enable OEM unlocking in developer options

- install platform-tools and connect device to PC in fastboot mode (Volume Down + Power)

- install usb drivers and check usb connection (from platform-tools directory in cmd.exe)

- unlock bootloader and confirm with Volume Up (factory reset)

fastboot devices
fastboot flashing unlock
fastboot reboot

2

) temporary root device

- enable developer options

- enable usb-debugging

- connect to PC and install usb drivers

- check adb devices (from platform-tools directory in cmd.exe)

- on the phone display permanently authorize the incoming RSA key

- download mtk-su to PC

- adb push binary to /data/local/tmp

- chmod executing permissions

- run the binary until you see # prompt (multiple times)

adb push mtk-su /data/local/tmp
adb shell
cd /data/local/tmp
chmod 0755 mtk-su
./mtk-su

3) backup boot.img / recovery.img

- get list of partitions

- dump partitions into files (in # shell)

- copy files to Internal storage

- copy files to PC (via MTP)

ls -d $(find /dev/block -name by-name)/*
cat /dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/11120000.msdc0/by-name/boot > boot.img
cat /dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/11120000.msdc0/by-name/recovery > recovery.img
cp -v *.img /sdcard

4) root device with Magisk Manager

- install Magisk Manager

- open the app

- advanced settings - preserve force encryption

- keep avb/dm-verity

- tap install (2x) times

- select and patch a file - boot.img

- copy magisk_patched.img to PC

- reboot into fastboot

- flash the patched boot

fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
fastboot reboot

5) create your own TWRP recovery

... to be continued

(send me recovery.img will try to make TWRP and you can test)

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] :
Suddenly, Chrome forces all my websites to be rendered dark (Chrome 84 on Google Pixel 2 XL running Android 11 Beta 2.5) while the browser frame still stays in "daylight mode".

Neither the system is in dark mode, nor is "force dark mode" enabled in developer settings. "force dark mode for webcontents" is set to default in Chrome flags (as well as all other "dark mode" related flags).

Now I ran out of ideas how to fix this behaviour. I suppose this has something todo with either any recent Chrome update or any Android update. Please help!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] :
I solved this by deleting both app cache and app data. After a fresh clean start, Chrome was back to normal. Dunno what it was, maybe an retired Chrome flag that was active but no longer displayed.

Hello, I am currently using Bliss rom 12.9. Perfect it is when I am using the vendor 11.0.8 version,but when I flash the latest miui vendor 12.0.2, rom can be flashed ,but in this vendor FOD is not working at all. All the updated version of custom roms based on the latest vendor,so I am not able to flash those. Please help me out. I am using the redmi k20 pro(raphael) chinese version phone.

TIA

I have cleared dalvik,cache,system,vendor ,data and then flashed vendor 12.0.2 and then flashed evo x 4.5, havoc os 3.7 and also force decryption,but all the same,the FOD is not working. When I change the vendor to version 11.0.8 ,all is working. But the the latest version of evox,havoc os ,bliss rom are only working when vendor 12.0.2 been flashed,not working when vendor 11.0.8 been flashed. That is okay,but the problem is in vendor 12.0.2 ,the FOD is not working,but in vendor 11.0.8 ,the fod is working perfectly
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Robbo.5000:
If nothing else seems to be working, then try flashing the official 12.0.2 China fastboot ROM. Boot into that and see if you have working FOD. If everything is OK, then flash the ROM you want over MIUI. At this point you won't need to flash vendor and firmware files, as will you already have the correct versions installed.

I've got a Chinese phone too, and am using LOS with no problems. When the LOS requirements changed from 11.0.8 to 12.0.2 vendor and firmware, I actually decided to flash the MIUI fastboot ROM first, instead of flashing just the vendor and firmware, because I thought there was a greater chance of problems with the jump in MIUI major version.

hello everyone, i m interested in if i can flash 10 on g7 sprint.

but i have converted this to lg710ulm 9.0 pie

so. now i have lg g7 sprint with usaunlocked firmware 9.0

and what if i flash canadian android 10 firmware right now?

Exactly my thoughts too. I have a unlocked sprint(G710PM) running USA unlocked Android 9 (G7-GM710ULM). I am from Canada. I see Canadian Android 10 in the firmware site. Is it okay to flash the device with it? Will it work?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] manuhuelva:
Ive tried it and its fine. U can debloat it with Pie commands (i've posted on last comments of Evolution X thread) and root with magisk. "XD-Kernel 2.0.2-Custom" can be flashed too by Franco Kernel Manager or SmartPack Kernel manager (twrp not available for Android Q partition system yet).

Overall, very good experience, but i missed the XD-Kernel 1.7 in Pie and his features, and rolled back to 20k firmware.

[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] prmbasheer:
Thanks for the reply/info.

I am downloading it now. Mostly likely will flash tonight. Just have one question though. When you say debloat, are you referring to any carrier specific apps?. My guess is that G710AWM30b_00_OPEN_CA_OP_0605.kdz is a bloat-free firmware for unlocked devices. Let me know. I won't be flashing it if it going to be carrier specific ROM with their apps and functionalities.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] manuhuelva:
Is carrier free, but i hate some things from lg, like update center, lg bridge, my places, gapps, telemetry services, lg_drm_service.... these are bloatware for me.

thanks in advance.

EDIT: i just flashed as u guys saidhttps://drive.google.com/file/d/14nAAE-ZA2jEnGAhTl20bdkv9Y-LvJ2N1/view?usp=sharing

this, with LGUP refurbish and seems like just working fine. ill post update if something goes wrong..

If not working, u can try this dll for android10:

https://www.mylgphones.com/lg-up-dll-ver-2-1-0-19-for-lg-g7-with-android-10.html

If not working, u can always to do the same process with normal .dll it provides, and rollback to pie.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] Felix255:

everything working like before.

Confirmed: LG g710pm converted to lg g710ulm20e

and next converted to awm30b

but it shows ulm30b :laugh:

here is screenshot: [IMG="android 10"]https://i.imgur.com/2OELoIm.png[/IMG]

Nice bro

For me was showing 710em30b with awm .kdz
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] prmbasheer:
I did the exact same thing except I did a partition dl flash and mine also shows as ULM30B! Doesn't matter as long as it works fine.

Signal wasn't great earlier, looks the same now. However I see VOLTE and Wifi-Calling.

The most important for me is the battery. The previous firmware was good with battery. I will be watching closely for the next few days.

Introduction

Pitch Black Recovery is a fork of TWRP with many improvements to make your experience better. It's more flexible & easy to use.

This particular build is based on the amazing work done by the PBRP team and Joyeuse devs with some little changes to get it working on Curtana.

This build is really experimental so flash at your own risk.

However, the main use cases are fully covered as the most important functions of the recovery are working correctly.

Working

Data decryption

Flash

Wipe and format data

Backup and restore

Bugs

ADB sideload

Flashing Magisk results in bootloop: if you want to use Magisk you can patch a "boot.img" file from Magisk Manager and then flash that img to the Boot partition from recovery.

The recovery always asks for encryption password, even if the device is not encrypted: if your device is not encrypted just press cancel and it will work just fine.

Error 7 when flashing a ROM: check that System, Vendor and Product partitions are not mounted in the Mount section of the recovery before flashing a ROM.

Hey,

great work!

thanks!

I saw on github you changed that version from joyeuse to curtana.

Would you be able to compile a joyeuse version too for all the joyeuse owners?

Add it here too and change the title [curtana-joyeuse]? ;)

I've unpacked your version and changed build.prop and repacked.

It's working beautifully on my joyeuse_eea device.

It is the only version that:

- does not lock touch after wake up

- can decrypt

- is not closed source as LR-twrp

- backup works

So great work!

PS: have no clue howto compile myself, otherwise I would have tried that path :)
