Hello there. I just got my RedMagic 5g and I planned to use it connected to my AverMedia Capture Card. Everything I read up to this point is that the HDMI works fine for this phone but when I connect it, my capture card only receives a 480p signal! When I connect the phone directly to my monitor, I get a full resolution picture. My capture card has been working with connecting my iPhone, iPad Pro and my Galaxy Note 8. Any ideas on how to make this work? Thanks in advance.

Google Maps is not showing speed traps anymore. It used to work just fine, but ever since I upgraded from Malaysk's A6 to A8 version, this feature has been missing. Maps is working fine otherwise.

[General Topics] TODOPt:
I know that this may sound stupid but

(just like you will travel around the world with one phone)I know that there is not much ,or none manufacturer that will make a phone like that,they need to keep people buying their accessories

to be like a PC

with USB for adding stuffs(like a: usb hub/splitter,cam,bluetooth,IR,speakers,WiFI,GPS,keyboard ....)

some standardized charger(like on laptops),

normal headphones/mic jack for use as handsfree

And if possible to be idiot/drop/water proof

maybe with builtin IR,bluetooth,WiFI,touchscreen,memory slot)

Something like the asus phones,they have a headphones jak,and a USBmini for charging and connecting to a PC

P.S.But for that you will need something like Win98 or DSLinux

it will be nice if it is something between Nokia N95 and 5500,and maybe Thuraya

P.P.S.My choice for a laptop like that would be XO they are like a cheap version of the though book and if you brake it it won't cost you 3000$

i was asking for something like HTC Shift(i haven't even heard of it,untill i read someone post here),but smaller

WOW this will be 1/2 the price of the Shift even with a solar panels

Thanks anyway

Thanks for any help
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] 1dopewrx05:
You are going to have to root to do the tethering bypass. Also, so you know user bigbiff has made TWRP work on our phones and it's completely functional in it's 5th beta now. It works great and you can flash any AOSP ROM with it.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] kushman:
Thanks I'm going to have to try although like I said in the twrp thread when he told me they are all side load idk what that mean to me that means put a apk on and card and install it lol this Is a bit more to it th b good ole htc 10 days. I also noticed there isn't really good instructions for people to root and "side load" ROMs. Either detailed steps in writing or detailed steps in a video on how to do all don't exist
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] 1dopewrx05:
Okay, so the "traditional" sideloading we used to have to do for a custom rom is extremely easy and only requires super basic ADB comprehension. As for installing a custom rom now, you don't even need to worry about sideloading, all you need to do is boot the TWRP.img that I told you about and once in TWRP you can install the custom rom right through there with just a tap or two.

I think you may be confused with how to get into TWRP, you Don't need to side load the TWRP image, you just need to fastboot boot the image. Ex: boot your device into the bootloader with the command: adb reboot bootloader

Then from bootloader use command: fastboot boot "location of TWRP.img you download on your computer"

Once running that command, you'll be in TWRP and can continue to flashing a custom rom.

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] DB126:
The claim is prior gen variants of 7" and 8" models (eg: 2018 HD8) will see an OTA upgrade to FireOS 7.

Last time Amazon attempted an OTA FireOS upgrade (vs update) was with the 3rd gen HDX line (FireOS v3 -> v4); lots of bricked devices in that debacle.

Seen these reports before. I have my doubts.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] MontysEvilTwin:
According to the Amazon developer site it is happening: https://developer.amazon.com/docs/fire-tablets/ft-identifying-tablet-devices.html. We'll have to wait and see, but this should be possible without re-partitioning the device. The bogus upgrade of some tablets from Fire OS 5 to 6 would have required a much larger system partition.

Hopefully it will be possible to upgrade and keep an unlocked bootloader and TWRP.

Fire OS 7.3.1.5 is now avaliable for download for the Karnak (HD 8, 2018) and Mustang (7, 2019) tablets on the Amazon software download page.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] MontysEvilTwin:
I tried to flash the new version through TWRP. To be on the safe side, as when I updated to OS 6.3.1.5 through TWRP my recovery was overwritten, I edited the updater script. Flashing seemed to go OK (I re-flashed Magisk afterwards) but it bootlooped on the Amazon logo after rebooting. I could not even turn the tablet off by holding down the power button. I opened the case, disconnected the battery and booted into TWRP recovery after reconnecting. I then wiped and restored the backup I made just before flashing. The tablet is working fine again but I now have a vendor partition. I hope will be possible to keep an unlocked bootloader/ TWRP and upgrade to OS 7/ Pie.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] joeldf:
My HD 8 is still mostly stock (just have Google's services and Play Store on it). So I downloaded the OS, and it's installing on its own right now.

It's a wait-and-see as to what it does. I know the UI is the same, but there are some notifications that the thing just would not show. I'm hoping this will work better.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] newnewcomputer:
thank you 4 trying n report! i dl the bin file but was too chicken to flash. i guess for a major update like this, Amazon may have to re-write the recovery, bootloader n everything else but my tin-foil hat is saying otherwise :laugh:

Pie will be nice on the HD8 but im not giving up TWRP or BL unlock 4 it! :eek:
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] MontysEvilTwin:
It would be good to know if anyone has got this to work. After getting a bootloop with the modified updater script, I flashed the original update, on its own and with GAPPS (arm 9.0 nano) and Magisk (20.4). There were no error messages in either case, but the same bootloop. I tried an adb sideload with the same result. I also used amonet to flash the OS 7.3.1.5 preloader and TZ files. This alone is enough to bootloop. I have not tried flashing the new LK but this would probably cause problems with the unlock as the necessary LK exploit is likely to have been blocked (it has been with OS 6 since version 6.3.0.1).

Hopefully if you have a stock tablet and the update downloads and installs this will proceed correctly and the upgrade problems are caused by some incompatibility with the unlock exploit. If not there are going to be a lot of bricked tablets out there.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] joeldf:
Mine updated just fine from stock setup. Even the added Google stuff still worked.

However, running through all the settings, I went to the factory reset page. As I was bringing my finger over to hit cancel, I was apparently too close to the screen, and it picked up the OK button instead. Did not know it would be THAT easy. It started wiping, and there was no stopping.

It did give me a chance to redo everything. Used the Fire Toolbox to install the Google Play stuff this time (manually did it before). That worked well.

Maybe it was the reset, but the whole UI seems a little smoother. Also, after a full day, the battery seems to be lasting longer than I expected given all the re-downloading and setting up I've been doing.

[MENTION=6066839]joeldf[/MENTION] - plz let us know if ur stock update to fire OS 7 works out okay. seems like it wont work w/ unlocked bootloader which would turn a lot of ppl away from install.

it is a good free major upgrade (a first for any fire device in recent years). i use fire OS 7 on my HD10 2019 n it is better than OS 5 n 6. u would think that it works out-of-box for a stock tablet but i remember reading about the last time Amazon did it, there WERE a lot of bricked tablets out there :rolleyes:

thanx again for ur tests! i will pass on this update. hopefully someone can extract some useful things from this Pie release for the LOS 16 custom ROM.

edit: [MENTION=6066839]joeldf[/MENTION] - thanks for the update! so the update works for stock ROM. since factory reset gave the same ROM, the update did rewrite the recovery. basically will have to give up BL unlock, TWRP n root for the OS 7 update. u MAY get 'em back by opening up the tablet (im not up-to-date on unlocking latest OS.) For me, I will pass.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] bibikalka:
Looks like there is a kernel patch required. It's possible the new TZ can work with the old LK, where the unlock sits. If you have yours open to do amonet, try replacing TZ as well! You can recover via contact shorting.

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] MontysEvilTwin:
I am having problems getting this version working at all. I tried downgrading the version of TWRP and flashed the new software with a modified updater script (to change the paths and make it work with this TWRP version). This also overwrites the PL, TZ and LK plus recovery. I didn't get a bootloop but it would not progress past the Amazon logo screen on boot.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] bibikalka:
You should probably just relock, restore the stock recovery, and apply the full update as Amazon intends. I think twrp may be trying to protect some key partitions, and this may be tricky to figure out. In amonet via contact shorting you could then replace LK and unlock, but keep the new TZ. Also, can flash twrp there too.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] AntiPhotonz:
I tried to do this by replacing the tz that the amonet script flashes but it bricked the device and cannot boot to recovery anymore.

---------- Post added at 12:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:07 AM ----------

All I can say is, keep trying. ;)

I applied Fire OS7 and ended up at the same bootloop on Amazon logo. No chance to get back into Recovery.

But then, some combination of key presses ended up working for me (after ~30 mins of trying) and I was able to hold the power button down long enough to have the unit power down. Once you get to that phase (or wait till battery dies), then you can boot back up into Recovery and you're good again.

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] joeldf:
I downloaded the OS from Amazon here:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=G2JXLC4L34GX73TE

Then copied it to internal memory, and when I went to "System update" it said an update was ready to install. Then I let it do it.

Of course, this is complete stock setup, besides the added Google Play stuff.

Thanks Joel, understood.

I did the same method with unlocked BL, along with all the other methods mentioned by other folks (sideload, extract the BIN repack as flashable ROM, etc.)... they all failed with bootloop. :)

If you attempt the Mediatek exploit, let us know. ;^)

---------- Post added at 02:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:00 PM ----------

Thanks. When you say, "Backup done before, factory reset" are you referring to Nandroid (TWRP) backup? And "factory reset" within TWRP?

I'm surprised you got that to work with a custom recovery. What ROM were you using before upgrading to FOS7? (Seeing you type "fire toolbox" leads me to believe you were on stock FOS6? Unrooted?) If so, I tried exactly your method but from a rooted FOS6 and ended up with bootloop after flash. Go figure. :)

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] MontysEvilTwin:
I have tried a few things. I reverted fully back to stock (OS6, no unlock, standard Amazon recovery with no patches to boot or recovery images) and updated (successfully) to OS 7.3.1.5. I then used amonet to unlock, keeping the OS 7.3.1.5 bootloaders (preloader, TZ and LK). This gave a bootloop. I thought this would not work as the necessary LK exploit was patched as far back as OS 6.3.0.1. I restored to stock and got the tablet working again with OS 7.3.1.5. I then used a modified version of amonet and flashed OS 7.3.1.5 preloader/ TZ and OS 6.3.0.0 LK without unlocking (boot and recovery images unmodified stock). This also gave a bootloop.

It seems that the OS 6.3.0.0 LK is incompatible with OS 7.3.1.5. FYI the preloader is OK: it is identical to the preloader flashed by amonet (version 3/ 3.01 for Karnak) when unlocking. It makes no difference, but the preloader flashed by amonet-v2 is slightly different.

I have my Fire HD 8 (2018). I blocked an OTA updates and I'm staying in Fire OS 6.3.0.1 because the newer firmware is too buggy, no security updates, and no improvements. My device is not rooted and unlocked, I just disabled all Amazon garbage (including OTA updates, and services) using ADB.

How do you know that the newer firmware is too buggy, no security updates, and no improvements?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] DB126:
He he doesn't know (yet another ignorant/ridiculous post). Base security level in Android 9 far exceeds Android 7 w/o patches. Buggy? Not what others are saying. In most cases a feature works slightly differently and thus becomes a "bug". Can't speak the native Amazon apps as I don't use them.

Would I upgrade? Yes if in stock clothing, no if unlocked. At least for now until upgrade path for FrankenFires is better understood.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] joeldf:
I found the update to Fire OS 7 is much better than 6. Kind of hard to describe, but it just seems smoother and seems to handle jumping from app to app better. Not lighting speed of course (it's still a cheap device with minimal memory so there is still delays), but seems to just flow better.

Battery life is noticably improved.

No bugs that I've noticed.

Lots more app control of notifications, data usage and background operations.

And, you think OS 6 IS getting security updates?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] AmznUser444 Dev:
After you update your Fire tablet and isn't changing the security patches.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General] joeldf:
That doesn't answer my question. Why do you think Fire OS 6 based on Android 7 (Nougat) is more secure than Fire OS 7 based on the two-year newer Android 9 (Pie) .

We don't really know what security patches any Fire OS gets. They've forked it so deeply that all system reporters only returns the initial security date from the AOSP that the OS was built from, and Amazon never says anything about security patches. Amazon does send out updates every so often, and I'll bet that they include security patches if Google still provides them - as they still currently do for Pie. I believe the last security patch for Nougat was Oct. 2019. So, your Fire OS 6 is done.
