[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
It was moved to correct section because you were asking a question. It doesn't matter if you didn't put a question mark in the "title." ;) The section you posted is only for Development releases: V30 ROMS, KERNELS, RECOVERIES, & OTHER DEVELOPMENT. You weren't posting a release. You posted a question.

You can ask a question IN one of the Development threads (if it's relevant to that release), but you cannot create a new thread based on a question. That's what this Questions and Answers (Q&A) section is for.

Yes, that's a mod posted in the LG V30 Themes, Apps, and Mods Section.

Have you read that thread? Read all the comments. You can try if you wish, but most of the comments said it may work for recording only and not for playback on the phone. And some said even that didn't work. Feel free to try it and post your experiences and any questions about the mod in that thread.

I can confirm this.

SD835 has hardware limit to record 4K@60fps and HDR video. That's why stock can record only with LUT and only with 30fps.

BUT there is some nuance.

We can unlock 60fps in software mode (but not by way linked here: https://xdaforums.com/lg-v30/help/lg-v30-4k-video-60fps-mod-t3761934.

The quality of the recorded video will directly depend on the complexity of the scene in the frame, the load on the processor and some other factors.

In reality, Fps will be about 45-50 frames per second, with a maximum of 60fps. but this is under ideal conditions. Even lowering the bitrate won't help much. It will be very difficult for the processor codec to encode such a video format.

Actually, I unlocked these modes in the AiS / AiX firmware, but as an experiment, because, to put it mildly, there is little practical utility from it.

Some of you will be tempted to reply in a rude and arrogant way and say something "this app is syncing contacts, bla-bla", but let's all take a breath of air and focus on the reason why i am asking: many apps can have misleading names.

So, as I do not know that this app is doing precisely, I would like to know in what way removing it would impact my phone and my contacts list. Is this app ONLY syncing contacts with my google account, or it has other functionalities too? Because I prefer to keep my contacts on the phone, not on the google account and also I don't use gmail anymore, except as the google account for android.

On my phone there are two more contacts-related apps: com.oneplus.contacts (called Contacts) and com.android.providers.contacts (Called Contacts Storage), which I assume are in charge with contacts list storage.

So, bottom line, what that app com.google.android.syncadapters.contacts does and how would it impact my phone if I remove it?

Thanks.
[OnePlus 7 Questions & Answers] daitalos:
Almost the same question was asked some time ago in Reddit,here : (com.google.android.syncadapters.contacts included)

https://www.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/feplos/is_it_safe_or_beneficial_to_remove_the_following/

Ok...We know "com.google.android.syncadapters.contacts" definitely concerns the Google Contacts sync.But the problem is: We do not know for sure if it is related to any other Google application :(

_ Google, perhaps using "scripts", interconnects applications.I mean,you delete one application and there is a problem with other applications.For example,there may be a problem with Google Photos,Google Calendar & more Google apps,maybe even with Log in & Google account (?)....Really IDK

Some phone manufacturers are adding their app with different package name, such as "com". Maybe this application, apart from the synchronization, is even related to other Google apps...So, probably no one knows for sure "100%" the answer in this question...

_ But If you want,you can "delete" this app,with this way (of course first take back up your data, & your contacts mainly).This "deletes" the application for the user.If you delete an app by mistake, you can bring it back simply performing "factory reset" in your device(ofcourse,data is deleted as you know)...

It is the safest method, without the need for root, only via ADB...

https://beebom.com/how-remove-bloatware-android-without-root/

_ And this list is also interesting,with oneplus bloatware & Google Bloatware on OnePlus devices & OOS : https://technastic.com/oneplus-bloatware-list-oxygen-os-debloater/

("com.google.android.syncadapters.contacts" is not mentioned in this list)

The "com.google.android.syncadapters.contacts" is on the route : /system/product/app/GoogleContactsSyncAdapter/GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk

Yes correctly,the "com.android.providers.contacts" is the "contacts list storage" in : /data/app/com.android.providers.contacts-xxxxxxSNxxxxxxx-NxxDxQ==/base.apk

and "com.oneplus.contacts" - called as "Contacts" in : /system/priv-app/Contacts/Contacts.apk

*(I think you have the wrong impression for the XDA users.Here any user simply helps the other if he can of course)

[OnePlus 7 Questions & Answers] derei:
Thank you for your complex answer. It almost makes me switch to LineageOS (I had it before on my huawei phone, but i got seduced by OOS, so i found it hard to listen to the voice of reason :cyclops:).

What mainly concerns me about all this "bloatware lists" is they are mainly a list of apps, no description whatsoever. Is basically asking one to trust that list blindly. I feel uncomfortable with that. So, I am trying to know at least the minimum about what an app does before taking it down. What one may consider bloatware, I may see it as a desired feature.

And you are correct, most users here on XDA are great people, however it happened that I've seen some answers which I didn't approve. Never happened to me so far though...

I guess I won't take down com.google.android.syncadapters.contacts . If I want to walk that route, I'll switch to Lineage.
[OnePlus 7 Questions & Answers] daitalos:
Yes,a custom rom is a solution sometimes

Maybe you can find some interesting things. Go to Playstore & download the "App Inspector" app...Open it,and click on whatever interests you

[OnePlus 7 Questions & Answers] derei:
I looked over the app. There are two main concerns here:

1. app requires a lot of permissions (understandable, due to the nature of the app)

2. app is not open source. Combined with the previous point, it gives a slight sense of incertitude. For such intrusive apps, I prefer fully transparent ones. And although I am not qualified enough to fully inspect an app's code, there are other people which do it and then they share their thoughts about.

I would remove the xiaomi account only from this new phone without never logging in on it....but I don't want to permanently delete my xiaomi account because it is used on other 2 devices: a xiaomi MI5 still used, and a MI8 Bricked

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] antoine21:
Hi All,

A few days ago, a client of mine brought me back his diamond saying that the music player was not working.

After more than 8 hours of trying to fix this issue by trying everything I could find on this forum and every possible solution my imagination could think of, I'm left no other choice than asking the community for help.

When ever I put a large amount of files on the storage card (around 3Gb) and use the TF3D interface to play the music, Audiomanger_eng.exe crashes (sometime other files crash but I forgot the names).

Now, I have tried pretty much everything:

1. I tried both WMP 11 to transfer the files and the direct copy/paste of the files to the storage card.

2. I tried putting another set of songs coming from a different PC

3. I tried having all the songs together in the same folder (that caused even more issues as album arts were overlapping) and I tried the WMP function to get each songs in its correct subfolder (ie: artist... Album...).

4. I tried deleting the database file of the AudioManager (which causes it to rescan all the files which it does but then crashes as it tries to play certain songs)

5. I tried on two different Diamonds, using 1.93 in English (HK), 1.93 in French, TOM_DiamondProject_v3.2, Dutty's latest rom. Through this I tried the original HARD SPL of HTC and also Olinex and another guy's one. (All the test I did using these various ROM created approximatively the same error though varied slightly from one ROM to the other)

6. I have also tried a million soft reset and hard resets.

7. I have tried loading the music in Windows Media Player Mobile which works perfectly but does not change anything to the problem I have with the TF3D player.

8. Following stevedpl7's comment, I went in the file explorer, created a new folder called My Music, then I cut and paste all the music from Storage/Music to Storage/My Music, went to the application data/HTC/AudioManager_eng/ and deleted the database file: AudioManager_Eng.vol, then I did a soft reset. When I now go to the music Tab, it crashes before I even get a chance to play a song. In the music list, I can see all the transferred files.

9. And many other small things....

Any idea or suggestions?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] stevedpl7:
Just a quick question about where you are putting the music files?

I have exactly the same problem if i save my music foldes to Internal Storage\Music (which is where WMP saves them by default)

However when i created a 'My Music' folder in the Internal Storage\My Documents All worked fine. So Try....

Internal Storage\My Documents\My Music\''your music here''

As i said you may well have to create the 'My Music' folder, on my Diamond only My Pictures and My Videos were there by default.

Hope this helps.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] wilfmoralee:
I have the same problem, the only thing I can put it down to is the new 1.93 ROM from HTC, as it was working fine until I flashed the phone with this ROM.

I have tried the solutions above and it still isn't working, so if anybody else has further ideas please let me know, if not I'll wait for the official word back from HTC and post their solutions up here also.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] antoine21:
Sadly, it didn't work either for me

Thanks you Stevedpl7 for the info, sadly I have tried and the problem even got worse :(

I went in the file explorer, created a new folder called My Music, then I cut and paste all the music from Storage/Music to Storage/My Music, went to the application data/HTC/AudioManager_eng/ and deleted the database file: AudioManager_Eng.vol, then I did a soft reset.

When I now go to the music Tab, it crashes before I even get a chance to play a song. I the music list, I can see all the transfered files.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Lost_in_translation:
Are those files made from scratch on your or the customer's PC, or were they downloaded from the Internet? I know that some downloaded MP3s are defective, furthermore some players do not understand all variations of the MP3-format like VBR, joint stereo et al. There is no strict "standard" for MP3, the technology has developed over the years and no one has made an attempt to define "levels" as they did with MPG-2 or with DivX. So there is always a level of uncertainty whether a player is able to play all files. A resampling with a MP3-software or even converting them from MP3 to WMA might help.

It's always a good idea to use WMP on the PC to create MP3 or WMA. Not because it excels in quality, but because it uses very standard features in the format.

Have fun!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] antoine21:
They are mainly downloaded MP3s and a few WMAs. When I transfer the files using WMP, some are converted. The thing is that all these files work fine in Windows Media Player on the Phone.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] ziggy76:
I just realised that there is a possibility that if your MP3's has the album artwork embedded into the files. the audio manager would crash.

currently i'm doing a trial and error of it and have yet to fully test everything out just yet.

would anyone like to comment or verify if the embedded artwork might be the cause of crashes?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] antoine21:
I think you are right. I have tried putting one song with the artwork embeded and it crashes the software!!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] ziggy76:
erm. and yet. i did manage to sneak in one album with an embedded artwork. :\

but that was 1. i tried it with another album with the embedded artwork and had a crash.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] antoine21:
I'm now thinking about giving up and installing TF3D config tool to hide the music tab and then install the old audio manager to play the music :(

Note even the original demo tunes work

Audiomanager worked fine before (1.37 ROM), but when I updated to 1.93.413.3 SVE not even the "built in" demo tunes work. It just hangs on the first tune... Removing the .vol file does not solve the problem. Windows Media player can play the tunes without problems.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] coredump:
Use MP3Tag to mass delete all coveralbum info from your MP3 files on the PC side and then resync everything back using WMP. This solved all freezing problems with the TF Audio Manager for me. MP3Tag can be found here: http://www.mp3tag.de/
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] kdeezy:
Confirmed that this method does work
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Sil3ncer:
Works but people embed album art coz they want it to show up in the AudioManager in the first place. Now the only way to do is, is to extract the album art, rename it to folder.jpg and put it in the song's album folder. This is a really huge hassle especially if u've got tons of files embedded with album art....
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] cornwall:
Did you find a solution in the end ?

This issue is not tolerable for such a ppc... .

So if I happen to copy too many albums or mp3 files, my phone would crash and won't be the music ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Sil3ncer:
U have to remove your embedded album art from your mp3 first before transferring, and then extract that album art and put it in the same folder as the mp3 with the name folder.jpg. A huge hassle for people who have a huge collection of mp3s with embedded artwork.

Anyways, I've written to HTC Tech Support about this and "strongly suggested" to them a ROM update for this issue.

For anybody reading this in the future, this is actually caused by invalid decryption keys. It's possible to have Android boot but not successfully decrypt data. In this state the phone will boot but no applications will install and saving files won't work correctly.

Simply wiping data should fix the issue, but there's always the MSM tool for when things go really wrong.

Next time you want to roll back to OOS from a custom rom:

Boot twrp

Flash OOS 10.3.5 global from that link ☝️

Flash twrp installer zip

Flash finalize zip

Format data (remember this wipes everything)

Reboot system.

You will not have this issue if you install that way.

Then if you want root boot twrp and flash magisk , reboot system.

Also if you ever have to use Msm tool again you can use the last Android 9/pie twrp by mauronofrio. The twrp he compiled just before Android 10/Q twrp started.. You can use that twrp and just flash OOS 10.3.5 global rom after you run Msm tool. That way updating won't take so long. That's what I did and had no issues. Just don't ever downgrade OOS via TWRP or you'll brick.
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Questions & Answers] captainbirdseye86:
Hi all

So I eventually got fed up of Samsung fobbing off far inferior Exynos chips to European markets. I have no regrets moving away from my Note 9 but have wondered if there is a solution on two things I really miss.

Folder shortcuts to Homescreen? This was very easy to do using the native file app on the note 9, I have tried several third party file management apps but none I tried have this feature

Streaming video to a Samsung TV without having to keep the screen on? I used to be able to just stream a video file without actually having it playing on my phone.

Does anyone have any ideas or solutions to these two annoyances ?
