No, not directly , anyway. You can flash boot

Img, recovery.imf, and super.img.

You could use lpmake and unpack your super.img and repack with the gsi-system.img on your pc and flash that new super.img

There are people using similar tools on the recovery, but I have not tried it.

There is one that cought my attention "system swapper". Unfortunatly I have not tried it yet.

If all you want is to try gsi, stock fastbootD can flash it

Can you please tell me how to do it?

I've tried flashing DotOs 5.2, I extracted it then compressed it back into a zip file then tried to flash it using FastboodD (selecting The option "apply update from Sd Card") but it always gives me the same error "Footer is wrong, Signature verification failed, error 21, Fota installation aborted, Bad file descriptor" Pls help what should I do?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mrmazak:
Your process is not correct. And not along the outline I mentioned in the quoted post.

You cannot flash zip file in fastbootd.

There are more detailed guides here on xda. I do not have a link at the moment. But try and search for "flash gsi with fastbootd" I'm sure you can find guide available.

Hello mrmazak, how are you?

I finally managed to flash a GSI on the Umidigi A7 pro. Flashed PHH's GSI AOSP, version 411 - Android 12.

The problem is that when flashing your TWRP, I can't boot, it's in a loop.

I flashed like this:

Can you give me an idea how to fix the problem?

Now, after writing this message, which I called myself, that this version of TWRP is for Android 10. Do you have any predictions to launch for Android 12?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] double b26:
Umidigi A7 Pro

So ive been out of the loop for several years. I did manage to get root on stock rom finally, now that magisk has been fixed. Been impressed with the ease of use with magisk modules. Its nice to have access to root apps too.

Of course, im still running stock recovery, but am interested in getting custom recovery in there to have the ability to backup/restore, and possibly flash a rom, if any were available.

Thats not really a priority tho, and im wondering if, at this point, if its worth bothering spending the time to change recovery? For a layman, and fairly avg user, would it be beneficial, or would you all say best to just wait and enjoy rooted stock rom for the time being?

Thanks for the effort in developing for this device. Its a solid phone for the money. Only issue ive had is with it not notifying of message push notices in certain apps. Seems to be the rom, cause i can tether to it and get notices on time with every other device

[Android Head-Units] ExtremeMOD:
Hi guys,

After couple of weeks research I was lucky enough to find a simple way of making my steering wheel controls work with my aftermarket Android head unit.

There are 3 white connectors - see pic 1.

The one in the background is a 16 pin connector and this is where we do the following - from the cable that came with your aftermarket unit (see pic2):

1. Connect GROUND to Green/Black cable

2. Connect KEY1 to Green/White cable

3. Connect KEY2 to Green or Lime cable

4. Start the car and configure steering wheel controls inside your settings.

Voila, you now have steering wheel controls. I know this works on European models (all gen1).

Enjoy!

I am having an issue with my G4 HTC wizard in that when I flash a new rom I am left with a multi-colored bar above the Start button running across the top of the lcd screen (a few pixels wide).

On some roms it disappears for instance 6.1 Diamond, but the TNT's it is always there however many times I flash. I have tried both 19213 and 20723 and most of the other roms with still the same issue.

Does any one have a fix or explanation for this as it looks stupid and is irritating on a Black wallpaper?

[Microsoft Surface Duo Questions & Answers] Mr_Sinist3r:
Greeting all. Has anyone been successful using a SD card reader with the Surface Duo? I posted this question on the Microsoft community and received the following reply:

"A USB-C accessory that indicates to Surface Duo that it needs more then 600mA of power or draws more than 600mA of power will not be enumerated by Surface Duo. Additionally, if you are using a USB-C hub that meets these power requirements, the hub will be disconnected if a device attached draws more than the maximum power declared by the hub."

Your thoughts?

Maybe try a Factory Reset .

Could it be ,that when switching from /old backups from N10 + /re installing apps /setting /Smart switch ...etc something got corrupted ...?

I know it's a hassle, to factory reset , but as i see it

You can "stress " and look for the "culprit " , that causes the battery drain or

maybe try a factory reset ...it might help ??

Good luck
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
•Try to find the issues of this load otherwise doing a hard reset may only land you in the same situation.

Lot of junk running... do you need it?

A package blocker like PD MDM can be used to turn off bloatware.

Cloud services and Goggle backup tend to be habitual offenders.

Turn off Google, Samsung and carrier feedback.

I had a lot of trouble with ARcore, disable it if you aren't using augmented reality applications.

Clear data on Goggle Backup Transport, Goggle Framework and google.android.gms.policy.

Clear system cache and log files with a cleaner.

SD Maid does a good job.

I use the old version of Device Care to clean the cache when it used 360° however I block internet access when it runs then package block it because of the Chinese junk in it. It's a good cache cleaner:(

•Turn off 3rd party power management apks and like Adroid manage its self. Don't set apps to sleep.

•Clear system cache on the boot menu.

In Developer options in Running Services, see what's running. In Stand By Apps all buckets should show as active, if not power management is being used. Android will power them down when not in use even if shown as active.

•Monitor your battery milliamp draw in realtime; at idle it should go down as low as 60 ma at times and average about 180-300 ma at idle. Frequent or sustained spikes in the 400-1000+ range indicate excessive cpu activity; find what's doing it. Examine what was recently opened or cache when the drain starts in Running Services in Developer Options.

•Before doing a hard reset try resetting Settings; it's less drastic and time consuming.

•If you do a hard reset be more careful during setup.

Avoid loading a bunch of junk 3rd party apps... keep it clean. Test new 3rd party apps before the reload if you can.

Play with it... observe and play some more... you will find it.

Go through all the settings, poke around, see what's there and learn what it does. Unlike playing in the Windows Registry it's relatively safe to do and fun:)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] aarick:
appreciate the suggestion. Considering I had all the same apps on my note 10 and didn't have similar issue. Am incline to believe issue is related to restoring with smart switch. So will consider doing a reset when I have the time to set everything up manually.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
I don't like smart switch or trust it. This type of Samsung apk has failed me miserably before... bugware.

The 10+ between Goggle, Samsung and carrier apks can be witchy. Lots of junk that does nothing for you and creates conflicts that suck resources/power/internet bandwidth are all too common.

Since each configuration is different you need to play with it.

Without root you lack advanced diagnostic tools which makes it more difficult as if Google wants it that way... effective real time monitors I can use in Windows are completely missing in Android.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Scotman1410:
Note 20 ultra user here myself, by chance have you got mobile hotspot active? Or the auto hotspot running? Just done a Google search for the service and found this thread. For me turning off the hotspot and auto hotspot stopped the battery drain for this service in its tracks. I have also noticed the phone getting alarmingly hot 50c to 55c when it is switched on and in use, though saying that I'm finding general use makes the phone uncomfortably hot to hold :mad:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] mbilalc:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] blackhawk:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] xenofont:
have DevCheck installed. Does the Pro version allow to keep it running in the background collecting data for analysis later? I specifically want to understand how much is the drain in standby mode and whether T-mobile 5G could also be the culprit here?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] xenofont:
Looks like DevCheck won't collect data silently in the background. So any recommendations for a reliable app to measure standby drain would be very welcome.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Don't know.

Goggle system apks are more likely to blame.

Try blocking suspects with Karma Firewall and see what it does.

Turn off auto sync for Gmail and look hard at 3rd party apps including Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Limeybastard:
Use GSAM after enabling permissions via adb. Make sure the app is also not set to be optimized or restricted in background usage .

Tried all of that already. Did you get accurate readings?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Limeybastard:
Accurate enough for me to determine what is using my battery and make necessary adjustments, yes.

So when you tried that already, what did you come up with? You see MDE Framework in there?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] jack lamters:
The mde service framework is a system service that enables media playback on Android devices. It provides APIs to support the following media playback operations:

- playing audio and video files

- streaming audio and video content

- recording audio and video

- managing playback queue

- managing media player settings

The mde service framework is implemented in the media server process and uses the MediaDrm API to support DRM-protected content. See also https://grouphowto.com/mde-service-framework/
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Excessiveidling:
So I may have come across something that may help someone else out as well...

Recently (as in less than 15 days) purchased a oneplus 8 pro from oneplus.com. When I first got it it was on android 10 and I was not able to connect to either my 2.4ghz wifi or my 5ghz wifi using WPA2. I had a oneplus 7 pro previously that still connects without issue. I had read elsewhere that the open beta was better so I tried that and it indeed was better but sometimes though I was connected to the wifi, no traffic would travel over the network and it would stall to the point that the only way I could do anything internet or network related was to go to my cellular data. I did the 'device mac' as opposed to random mac and that helped for a brief time however that even cause the same stall/lack of response issues.

Since I don't have much for 5g cellular where I am, I changed it to only look for 4g....still no improvement. On a whim, I disabled any and all security on my 5ghz wifi and low and behold I could connect. I wasn't about to leave either of my wifi networks wide open but also remembered the network I connect at work is also not wpa or any sort of protection so theres a hint as to how to 'fix' these issues. I then read someone about the possibility of having special characters in your wifi password can cause issues. I removed the ! in my old wifi password so it is now alpha numeric and have had no issues with my 5ghz wifi network. I have been able to stay connected with my 5ghz wifi WHILE bluetooth has also been abled and the speeds are roughly normal.

Try at your own risk but in summary:

1. upgrade to the open beta 2

2. disable 5g cellular connections

3. connect to your 5g wifi and make sure the password has no special characters in it as well as use device mac NOT randomized mac

4. perhaps success

With all the above being said, I do still intend on sending this phone back in hopes that I got a dud unit but I'll admit seeing these results makes me feel like its more of a software issue and certain incompatibilities with certain routers.

Just dropping what info I have discovered in hopes it helps someone out there...I would not normally endorse using NO password on wifi or a weak password, but for this phone it may be a requirement at least until the updates can come into play.

Thanks,

E|
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] MetroWestMA:
I am backing everything up to go to Android 11 tonight, and I switched to a new WPA2/WPA3 router here, but my password has no special characters.

On Android 10, complete nogo, as using WiFi calling with a BT headset on 5ghz slows the network down so much, the other person can't hear you (no upload bandwidth).

I'll let you know how Android 11, OB2 works out for me.

If there are issues, I am going back to the OnePlus 7 Pro and selling the OP8 Pro.

Since I have not been using WiFi, I blew through 55Gb of data this month already so am subject to throttling, thanks OP8 Pro :)
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] aygul12345:
You could try om a different router of someone else to pin point out if it's your router yes or no.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] MetroWestMA:
I did upgrade to OB2 a few days ago and wifi is generally better. But VOWiFi never works with a bluetooth headset - the other person can never hear me.

Also when streaming over WiFi the connection drops or stalls and causes rebuffering. I have confirmed these behaviors with 3 different routers.

Can anyone on TMobile (USA) confirm working VOWiFi while using a bluetooth headset?

Also 4G and 5G speeds slow down when on a call using bluetooth.

Maybe this is all due to qualcomm 865 chipset issues as the galaxy S20 users are having similar issues?

I had faced lots of stability and speed issues on the 5gz band. Received the OS11 update today and my issues seem to be resolved. So far the 5gz connection has been very stable, lightening fast speeds.
