[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] kieran_buffet:
i checked TheMuppets github page and looked at the blobs for the OnePlus 7/7T and i saw similarities between what i had extracted from the vendor.img using 7zip, but there seems to be a lot more data in the vendor img i extracted (1GB) than what is on the github page. i feel like i have no choice but to go ahead with what i have got, and hope it works..

i checked out the video you linked in full and the way he does it is with vendor file extract shell scripts through adb. he admits that because its not for the same specific phone (or something similar) not all files will be included but that it'll be close. i want to ensure the phone is going to work completely so i have taken that video and what im going to do is match my extracted vendor.img files to the content on the phone, and find a way to adb pull everything to see if i can find exact similarity. then hopefully i can move forward with inputting the kernal and getting a beautiful build. if i cannot adb pull everything then i will tediously go through the directories.

i withhold giving advice to other people until my own success can be measured, but i dont seem like the only individual to have issues and i will report instructions and the level of success if and when reached. thank you for your help!
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] kieran_buffet:
okay so i obtained a root adb instance, and i copied the vendor folder on there and everything else for the sake of learning that was pullable. i came across 2 vendor folders, /vendor, and /system/vendor. They both were the same size, but much, much bigger than the vendor.img i pulled from a system update. i want to double check, should i use the vendor files that were on my phone versus the OTA update vendor.img extraction?
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] Scott:
/vendor is vendor.img and the size discrepancy is normal. The IMG can be quite a bit larger than the actual data itself. I would use the ones that you pull from the device. Make sure you look at the other GitHub mentioned because there may be files outside of /vendor that are required for the system to work.
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] kieran_buffet:
hello Scott! thank you for taking your time to reply to me in this thread. i will go ahead with the /vendor folder found on the phone itself. i looked at the github link again and went through the repositories and "vendor" and "opensource" are repeated regularly, yet i dont know how i am to know if i need those files. any ideas?
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] Scott:
I would look for the script extract_files.sh. Is that what you are using or are you trying to pull them one by one?
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] kieran_buffet:
no, i do not know where this is. i used a rooted adb instance and pulled everything that didnt give me some kind of error
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] vitalyb:
Hello everyone,

I know it is might not be the perfect forum to post such questions, still it is the most serious forum I found. Here is what I have most issues about:

1) Ability to use as mp3 player (I intend to use it instead of my iPod). Diamond worries me in this aspect as it lacks both the expandable memory (though I have no problem using partial syncing) and the complains I heard about battery life. How long does the battery holds when you play songs (screen is mostly off)?

2) Strong community. Now, it is maybe a conflicting questions to ask here, but is there any forum like that for the Samsung Omnia community? Because I couldn't find one and I thought it to be quite suspicious.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] NYRican:
1) if you are looking for the mp3 player avoid the diamond since it only has the 4gb of internal harddrive space and is nonexpandable plus it might strain the small battery. but the omnia and pro are still good options. the omnia for it internal harddrive and the pro for the expandable memory and touchflo 3d interface if that is what youre into. i also read somewhere that the sprint version of the diamond might have expandable memory and a bigger battery so you might want to wait and see how that turns out.

2) the pro and diamond have obvious strong communities but the omnia has a few forum sites of its own and has official threads on other sites (not xda)

Hey there! I'm, not any kinda professional with rooting and things like that, once before few years rooted device successful and that's it... Wanted to ask if someone can suggest to me a firmware that works with my device, don't want to brick my phone. You might ask - what is the reason why I want to root my phone? Because of one reason, that is I want my android to run in 64-bit mode, not in 32-bit mode ( My device has a 64-bit CPU but its running in 32-bit mode).

Install magisk.apk

is it true ?
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] cultofluna:
Theoretically should work...

You can try it..

You can also boot the twrp (11) and flash latest magisk canary zip from there , it should also theoretically work...

May be why.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Imprezzion:
I build my own patched boot.img with the latest canary and did a full clean install of DP4 and it works perfectly fine so far. 2 days in now. No reboots and root works fine.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:
.yep that's how you do it.

I think the reboots have to be from dirty upgrades, there may be left over files causing issues

[Android Auto General] pieces of cake:
I'm not sure if this has to do with recent updates to Android Auto or if it's specific to the make and model of my device (I got the new phone around the same time as the latest AA updates were released), but I'm now experiencing endless frustrations with constant connection failures between my phone and my Jeep's Uconnect 8.4 head unit again. I went through a similar thing, as did many others, around this time last year and the year before. It's infuriating.

Most of the time, when I plug my phone into the vehicle's USB port, the Android auto icon appears on the display of the head unit for a moment or two and then disappears. There's a notification in the shade on my phone that says something like "Connecting to Android Auto" or "Starting Android Auto." But then it never really starts.

Occasionally I try clearing the data, storage and cache from the Android Auto app and sometimes Google Play Services. Sometimes I'll also have to go into the Uconnect settings menu and tell my head unit to "Forget device." Every so often, as long as I then turn off the ignition and then restart the vehicle and then reboot my phone, this will bring me back to the Android auto setup screen and I'll be able to use Android auto for a single drive cycle. as soon as I cut the engine and unplug my phone, it's over. When I get back into the vehicle I'm back where I started: with the head unit seemingly able to recognize that an Android Auto device is connected for a moment and then Android Auto just quits out.

It's insane. Seems like Google can't just get this right. As soon as they release a build that works, they follow up with an update that completely breaks functionality.

Anyone else have a similar experience and, hopefully, have suggestions and how to resolve this nonsense?

I have Google and WLS installed on my tilt, and i do like them. However, what options do i have for a GPS software that provides voice directions?

Not wanting to spend a bunch of money here, but if my options are limited, i would still like to hear them.

Thanks!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] sinning:
I use Tom Tom. It gives rather good turn by turn directions.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] AshleySear:
Hi,

I have tried TomTom V6 and V7 and also I-Go8.

All 3 are good products and these are my own 'key points':

TT6=Legal,out of date maps and won't get better.

TT7=Legally grey for the app ,but you can buy legal maps-which is what TomTom have always charged for-modern maps (01.08 if V7.20) and is likely to be so for a while yet.

I-Go8=Legal (but you may have to import it as it still is like hens teeth here)

,modern maps (01.08),likely to be supported.

TomTom (both)-basic interface,runs fast on older PDA (WM2003+),good routing.Instruction format=in 100m turn lef,turn left (at exactly the correct time),instructions at roundabouts are concise.

I-Go-'prettier' interface and possibly a little more powerful,3d landscape can be of use but 3d buildings are in my opinion a gimmick,a little slow on less powerful PDA,sound routing,shows the next 2 manoevers,with 3rd party skins easy to modify options.Instuction format=in 100m take the 3rd left,take the 3rd left about 30m from turn (this is the last instruction),display lags by about 1 second so this is logical.Instructions as you approach roundabouts are in my opinion a little verbose

Choices-I keep swapping between the two as they are both strong products and I can't really decide which is 'better'

Do they work-Yes

Are they up to date-tt6,no-tt7 yes,and I-go yes

Cheapest-TomTom

Nobody can give you a definitive answer on the 'best' software,so pay your money and learn to live with the foibles these programs all have.

Clear as mud?

Ashley
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] ebayork:
do you get the tomtom software if you buy an actual tomtom? I assume you cjust buy the disc, but does it come with the actual gps unit? My dad bought one ways back, and wondering if he got the software with it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] AshleySear:
I think the s/w is hard wired into the TomTom devices,but can be updated by official downloads

Ashley
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] ebayork:
okay, i don't have a cd, but i do have North America maps which is what i want. So, that leads me to my question, is there some generic installer that gets the tomtom shell on the tilt phone?

I tried a few on the wiki page, and when i truy to install the exe, i get a message on the phone saying Incorrect Rom. So, i assume i need a cooked ROM on my phone to install the ones on the wiki.

I checked tomtom website, and see nothing.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Arda A.:
Hello guys.

My friend was trying to inject TWRP from Odin to his S8. But as guessed it is failed and now the phone is stuck on Logo and doesn't boot. So, as you see from the title,frp and oem locks are in position "on". What should i do? Since FRP lock is on everything i tried on Odin failed as i expected.

[IMG="Here is the download mode page."]https://i.imgur.com/JooFbI9.jpg[/IMG]

I'm currently desperate and need some advice how do i fix the phone. Since he doesn't have any backup phone i'm trying my best. Thanks already!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] PoochyX:
Dude first off did you activated oem unlock in developer settings (does this Samsung even have a unlocked bootloader) Since you messed up patching twrp to the recovery you need to reflash stock firmware run the setup wizard after its done go in developer settings and make sure oem unlock is activated or more important is the option even present?

(alright its thier I didn't see the F in your model number)

([emoji88]Chaos GSI[emoji88])
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Arda A.:
First of all, my friend did nothing about unlocking oem (you can see from the picture i uploaded, both oem and frp locks are active). He didn't even searched about it :D. I don't think the bootloader also unlocked. So its pretty messed up right now. I actually tried flashing both android 8 and 9 with different variations, odin always failed. If at least oem was unlocked i think i would do something but, i have no idea waht to do.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] PoochyX:
Is thier a android 10 option......

([emoji88]Chaos GSI[emoji88])
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Arda A.:
Galaxy S8 didn't get android 10 update unfortunately. I'm still thinking that the problem that causes failed flashes comes from probably the roms i have. But i'm downloading from samdb, when it is downloaded i'll try that and it will probably work i assume.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] PoochyX:
Alright let me know the progress your friend shouldn't tinker without the proper knowledge cause now that expensive phone just a piece of metal once he has twrrp installed he should be protected from this happening again cause then again twrp is a modders best friend

([emoji88]Chaos GSI[emoji88])
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Arda A.:
You are completely right sir. Personally, every phone i had for 5 years were all modded and i always do my search before doing anything. What he did was a really big mistake and he could've asked me. At least he took a lesson from happened to him :laugh:

I just took his phone to my home and connected to my pc, i flashed the stock rom without any problem. I decided to root his phone by myself. I don't think he should attempt to do this kind of critical operations alone :p. Thanks for the help!

I also have another question; he had a backup of his files and apps using Smart Switch. If i root his phone, i know kies and smart switch doesn't work with updating phones. But can it restore the backup on a rooted phone?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] PoochyX:
I don't believe so... Hope he learned his lesson from this

Looks great spec wise: microSD, no notch garbage, headphone jack.

I need something to replace my OP5 and need a headphone jack and microSD slot.

How is linageOS and flashing? Fairly simple or is it one of those really complicated phones?
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers] Locklear308:
Hot damn this was an excellent read. I will say I'm deathly afraid of this new A/B partition nonsense. I swear google did it just to screw with us modders. I don't mind putting some work in but I hate when it feels like I'm flying blind in a volcano lol.

I debated the OP7 Pro, but not having and SD card slot or a 3.5mm jack is just unacceptable at this point honestly.

I do prefer IPS, but I would hate to miss out on 66+71 ...dang that stinks

So it looks like this phone is a strong maybe, might just be the best I guess as I can't find any other better options. Though maybe I should look at the ROG Phone II?

Let me know how LOS16 goes if you don't mind, especially if it fixes the camera.

[Android Head-Units] techy101:
This is one of my first posts, but I just installed this Joying Android head unit and wanted to share my (overly detailed) thoughts. I purchased the Joying JY-BO124N3N head unit the other week and finally got my review video finished. This unit differs from many of the others (Eonon, etc…) out there in that it runs an Intel based 1.8GHz octa-core SoC. It’s also got a reasonably snazzy DSP chip, SPIDF out, Dongle-free Android Auto and Apple Carplay, LTE, and a gorgeous 1280x720 IPS LCD that works fine with polarized sunglasses. But by far my favorite thing is that it has a physical volume knob! Call me old, but I like a volume knob and all the other units out there seem to have either a tiny screen with a knob or a giant screen with capacitive volume buttons. This was the weird middle child which is the reason I pulled the trigger.

Overall I’ve been very impressed by it with one or two bugs that give me pause (I go into one that causes trip computer units to reset in the video at 23:16). The video is long because I go deep into all of its features, settings, pros/cons, hiccups, and specs. It’s broken into chapters in the description, so you don’t have to sit through the whole thing for just one part.

[Thinkpad Tablet General] R-v-E:
Hi,

I have a Tab M10 tablet. It's a fine and cheap tablet that I will use to control my Smart Home system.

I want to mount the tablet on the wall. I wil use some kind of custom built mounting frame for the tablet.

For permanent power, I want to use the Pogo Pins at the bottom if possible. (the same pins are used in smart docks)

Does anyone know if I just can put 5Vdc on the pins and what is the polarity.

Greetings,

Remko

Edit:

Here are some pictures of the dock connectors
[Thinkpad Tablet General] R-v-E:
No one knows how to use those pins without a docking station?
[Thinkpad Tablet General] stan69b:
Hi, I have the same plans as you, same tablet, same purpose..... bought a 2 pin usb cable for smart watch, same dimensions, the tablet seems to know something is happening as it vibrates a little. but then it does not seem to charge :/ If you ever found a solution, i would be happy to hear it. in the meantime, i'll try to have a look, maybe there a security switch that disables the connector if the tablet is not "locked" in the dock though the two holes on the sides of the pin connectors.

Sorry for not having a solution but rather leaving more questions.

link to the cable just in case : https://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B08SJBK6ZC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Have a nice day :)

EDIT : It actually does work out of the box, the positioning was wrong (and the pins have to be in the right position, you can't invert the pins so don't forget to try both sides, i got it wrong and the tablet does not seem to suffer from this mistake) as I was trying to hold it in place. So from what I can tell, you should be good to go with this cable or an other (I could hardly find any so i posted a link but feel free to use any as long as the space between the 2 pins is the same as the one in the link :) )
[Thinkpad Tablet General] Rus023:
I am looking for a similar cable for probably a slightly different purpose. I also want to mount it on the wall but at the same time want to use the tablet as Alexa Echo Show. I have not managed to get the Alexa Echo Show mode on my M10 FHD tablet. On enquiring from Lenovo I was told that it works only when it is docked but the tablet did not come with a docking stating.

Are you using Alexa on your tablet? Does echo show works for you when charing using this cable with pogo pins?
[Thinkpad Tablet General] chw9999:
TWIMC: If you stumble over an old Pebble Classic SmartWatch charger cable: the pins fit! After removal of the magnets I implemented it into a wooden mini-easel as a stand, used tooth picks for alignment, works nicely! But (BIG BUT) I wanted it to be charging my Lenovo M10 while using OTG - THAT DOES NOT WORK! If you insert the OTG cable, it switches off the Pogo pin charging. Some idiot engineer thought himself clever...

Alternative is looking for OTG adapters being able to charge simutaneously. rare, but available.
