[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] LemoN_PL:
Hi

Yeasterday a friend gave me his phone (Xiaomi redmi note 7 codename lavender) and knowing i work with custom roms, he asked me to open bootloader and instal twrp and PixelExperience as rom.

I brought his phone home, inserted my SIM card, logged into my MI and added account.

I launched fastboot using ADB, activated MiUnlocker and it unlocked just fine. The phone wiped and i cofigured it, opened programmer options and clicked USB debug etc.

Again using ADV I launched fastboot and type „fastboot flash recovery twrp.img” (for reference twrp was from orange foxy)

Everything showed up, I wiped memory and inserted SD memory card with Pixel Experience, and instaled the ZIP, everything was allright so I started rebooting the system. And here is the issue, phone got stuck in a bootloop (I gave him one hour to load but it didn't).

I thought allright, let's restart that bad boy, i gave him another 15 minutes to load and still nothing.

I decided to reinstal, so I activated recovery, wiped memory and flashed zip again, waited another 15 minutes and still nothing. I thought maby the rom was corrupted so I downloaded AOSP, wiped memory, flashed rom and waited aditional 30 minutes and still nothing. I browsed Reddit and XDA and found out that is better to use „classic” TWRP not orange foxy. Once again fastbooted and flashed TWRP and it worked but requested password for memory (there was no password to begin with). I downloaded mi flash, downloaded tgz from xiaomi website and flashed it. It loaded, i made config once again and decided to instal TWRP „classic”, and again twrp „classic” asked me about password to memory despite having no password to begin with, i tried his old passwords, my old MiCloud password, even logged into MiUi and created password 1234 and password was still incorect.

I instaled twrp orange foxy and it didn't asked for password, so i tried instaling PixelExperience, but again bootloop. After 6 hours of trying i gave up, so i ask for help. My friend realy wants this.

Thanks in advance for all advices and sorry for terrible english, its my second language.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] vlouis:
Instead of trying 6 hours, you should read carefully first few posts at orangefox thread: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=79771468&postcount=2 especially about encryption... Use latest orangefox recovery and Format data partition (wipe not enough!).

Hi!

I just upgraded to android 11. On Android 10 I used Vivid NG for gestures but because overscan has been disabled on Android 11 it's not working.

Has anyone found a way to get around it? I want to keep using gestures but I don't care for goggles side swipe too go back - it interferes too much with the apps I use

Peter
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Thaiban:
Only in root you can use the gestures untill now
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] peter_dk01:
Hi Thaiban,

Thanks for the reply! I am rooted - that should I do? I tried a module for fullscreen navigation but it was still goggles gestures.

Peter
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Thaiban:
When you install the module you can choose from up or down volume witch gestures you want, yesterday last update for module
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] peter_dk01:
I can't get it to work. I'm using "Fullscreen/Immersive Gestures (Q-R) V7.2 by DanGLES3" have tried both fullscreen and immersive but it's still google's gestures and not vivid

Peter
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Thaiban:
First time i hear that , try with 3 button in your system change to fullscreen maybe they change
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] peter_dk01:
If I change to 3 button the navbar is still visible both in immersive and fullscreen. Also chrome keeps closing a few seconds after opening. I guess I'll just have to do with google's gestures for now ?

Thanks for the help anyway ?

Peter
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] eg1122:
In my thread I have a mod available via substratum to remove/hide 3 button navigation bar. You just need to have a 3rd party gestures app already setup before enabling the overlay. If you don't care to mod the pixel launcher (the purpose of my mod), then just install the apk in the second post and just build the top overlay. The last post on the thread has a picture showing what it is.

[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] peter_dk01:
Thanks! Just tried it but I get a build error when I try to compile. If I select a grid size I can build the overlay but the overlay overview is still empty. What am I doing wrong?

I'm using nova launcher
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] eg1122:
I've always had issues with the regular substratum in Android 10 and have since been using Substratum Lite. That's what I recommend my users to use. Give substratum lite a try.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] peter_dk01:
Brilliant!! It's working - thank you so much! ?

Do you know if there's any way to keep the collapse/switch keyboard button?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] eg1122:
Not yet, I've been trying to figure that one out.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] peter_dk01:
No problem. I'm used to not having it anyways. This is great - thanks for the help ?

[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] Nim78:
Hi All,

So i have a awesome S20 plus, within a week it dropped and got scratched, luckily Samsung provided a preinstalled screen protector!

So i wanted to buy the same and called Samsung twice and they said they dont sell it but can offer 3rd party alternatives, but have to call the store, called store and they only have the Zagg ones, i wanted the OEM one but cant find it. :(

So managed to get a great bubble free one and it look good, however i noticed compared to the original this gets finger print marks instantly and i have to keep wiping, the previous factory one was somehow soo resistant to finger printer, not completely but this one is driving me crazy.

SO my question to you amazing people, what protector would you recommend thats easy to install and fingerprint resistant, or ideally is there a spray, solution or something i can apply to mine to help with this problem?

I have read up briefly about Oleophobic coating so may try that but open for any tried and tested or just heard about suggestions. Thanks!!

Regards,

Fellow Android loving Nim :)
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] Klopers33:
Same happened to me, new screen protector ( tpu ) got yellow within time... so i got upset today morning and decided to use my phone without screen protector - so far it feels great and seems like a great decision - although i do use spigen case and that stays forever
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] digitaljeff:
I've been using the LK film protectors and they work pretty good with a decent oleophobic coating. Not as good as the straight glass in terms of not showing fingerprints, but pretty darn close. I've had mine on for 2 months with only minimal scratching you can't see when screen on , and no yellowing .
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] Nim78:
Thanks mate I may check that out! Trying to find the right one without going through several crap ones is well annoying.

Changing font won't help. Since its the length that mather, if it overides a specific amount of letters then it will push next letter down.

So you will have to rename the app if you can.

[Android Head-Units] bea5t:
Hey guys,

I just finally installed Avin Avant4 unit in my E39 M5 and I am SO disappointed with the sound quality.

I got the dsp chip with it. (Yes, I've adjusted it, but its the unit components/build quality itself)

I previously had an old Pioneer Avic Z130BT - and have MB Quart components up front powered by JL 300/4 for cabin and a sub with JL 500/1. It sounded great.

I have a feeling the unit may be defective, but not sure if all of them are like this. In which case it is extremely disappointing.

I hear interference at random times, like when using the touchscreen. The carplay adapter sounds a TAD better, but not by much. The highs are just terrible and sound as if it is a poor connection (it is not).

Has anyone compared the PX6 with DSP chip to a Pioneer/Alpine/etc.

I love having the ibus functionality and carplay in one, but the audio quality is just terrible.

Perhaps there are some options? Otherwise I may have to resort to going back to regular double din, and I really don't want to because this one looks 100%.
[Android Head-Units] Bob_Sanders:
Not the px6 yet. I have it but haven't installed yet. My px5 is still in there though.

I had a pioneer NEX4200 in my jeep which got replaced with a Kenwood 9903s, which got replaced by my present px5.

If you're strictly concerned with audio quality (out of the box) then you should go to kenwood or pioneer (I don't like Alpine... you pay too much for the name) because the audio quality is most definitely better. Now I say "out of the box" because you CAN make the sound better in these Chinese machines with external amps and sound processors (which I have done).

But I choose to spend additional money making the sound better on my Dasaita px5 because these machines offer FAR more flexibility than my pioneer or kenwood ever could be.

Hopefully I will have my px6 installed next week for further comparison but I can already pretty much tell you that my pioneer nex4200 or Kenwood will sound better. It's tough to beat the sound quality of today's traditional hardware based head units with a Chinese android unit.
[Android Head-Units] bea5t:
I have JL 300/4 going to MB Quart (old school made in germany) components. The minute I plugged in the android and turned on some audio, even before touching ANY settings, I was already disappointed.

The "alive" sound is just gone. You can tweak the highs and EQ and loudness all you want, but its still polishing a turd.

Wondering if anyone has connected a proper DAC to these (but how would it work with front/rear/sub outputs?)
[Android Head-Units] Bob_Sanders:
Yeah.... I was pretty disappointed in the beginning too. The sound was nowhere near as good as my kenwood, but I was determined to make it fly because of everything else these things can do.

I don't use the onboard amp. I use the front and rear rca outputs to a crossover which CREATES a new subwoofer channel which all (front, rear and new sub) is then fed to a signal processor (Axxess AX-DSP-X Digital Signal Processor) and then on to front, rear, and subwoofer amps.

I still get the odd screen noise to the speakers every so often but it's livable. The sound however is back up to par with my Kenwood.

I think that the big difference between the cheap chinese units and the more expensive ones is not so much the sound output. It's pretty much the same shallow audio across all these units. The difference is in how much processor and screen noise gets passed on to the audio. Some of these machines are just shielded better, with better pc board layouts so that noisy chips aren't near the audio preamps.

I would just absolutely love it if pioneer or kenwood built one of these android machines. It would be a killer machine. Pioneer/Kenwood audio quality mixed with the power of what is essentially an android tablet.
[Android Head-Units] bea5t:
I pulled it out and put a new pioneer instead. The android is just not reliable and has its own quirks. No matter what the audio quality was just not there. Pioneer is levels beyond.

I put a android media player and running ibusapp off that with hdmi into the pioneer - anyone know how I can power the android media player using 12V constant, + ACC? - having the accessory wire send a signal to turn on/off so the android doesnt lose time settings?

It absolutely does my head in when i find all these apps running in the background sucking up battery paower when i thought i had closed them off.

there must be a way to re-map one of the hard keys that kills all running apps in ONE HIT!

sorry guys if there a post asking for this already but I have searched & searched for what would, in my mind anyway, appear to be soething really simple & definitely a necessary tweak.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] kien:
I have it so the X button closes the app rather than minimizes them, not had a problem with apps not closing with this other than the photo Album not closing.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] gtpete:
i would prefer a hard key... i fat fingers & that tiny little icon in the top ight hand corner is just too bloody small!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] wilfmoralee:
Without the use of a task manager program there would be no way of doing this. I've used magic button and SPB Pocket Plus before and both of these will allow you to do this.

To be honest tho the quick list (top right) in TF3D has a big X button that closes all current buttons, so in my opinion no point bogging phone down installing big programs like SPB Pocket Plus if you are only going to use that one feature.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] uniqueboy:
There is a small app called "close all" which I had on my old artemis mapped to a HW button with AEButton plus, you could also use HButton for the mapping. I can't find a link to "close all" at the moment, you will have to google it unless some kind person can post it. However I find the built in x button works well enough for me.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] bigruss:
If you assign a button to Oxios CloseApps it will do exactly what you want, and compact your RAM too. Also on the page is Oxios Hibernate which will compact (reclaim) your RAM without closing any open apps. These are essential!

HI. I posted this over on the oneplus 7 forum and then I read about the nord.

There is a big difference in price and it looks like I might go for the NORD but

same questions as below please.

Someone replied xxxnolimits module. Would that work on the NORD?

-------------

I have owned a oneplus3t and a 5t both running freedomOS. Sadly this is no longer being made.

I have been offered a one plus 7 pro for a good price but before I went ahead and got it, can anyone suggest a similar OS to FreedomOS?

Basically something reliable, debloated and minimal.

Hello, my V20 boots into download mode and the only way to get the system started is to plug the USB port in and restart the phone using the volume keys+power.

Also I noticed that the the phone is not detected by the pc I connect to in the file transfer mode.

I don't know if both the issues are related to a problem in the USB port. I even opened the phone and gave it a cleanup with no result.

Thanks for helping me.

You might want to try a kdz, who knows?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] r@di@n:
The problem is it is AT&T and there is not kdz available for that version. Also it is not detected in any flash tool. I assume there is something wrong with the board. BTW I have never owned an LG with no major issue in its hardware especially in their board. That's a shame for a giant company like LG. Even cheap Chinese ones make flawless hardware.

The ROM works, but after 12 hours the phone restarts and enters TWRP recovery. The only way to resolve is to restore the factory ROM. To install Magisk see
