[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] zgfg:
Don't you have like Settings / Privacy protection / Special permissions / Install unknown apps

Or if you search for e.g. word unknown in Settings, it should find the menu to manage rights for apps to Install from unknown sources

Othetwise, apk files can be installed from PC by:

adb install <apk>

If not a single apk but the so-called split application (like YT):

adb install-multiple <first apk> <second apk> <etc>

<apk> can include absolute or relative path on the PC that adb can find the apk file

Google for adb install and adb install-multiple (and for split apk) to learn more

It's better to boot it first, there is no risk that way.

Plus the "guide" by kalid is literally a copy of mine. It was closed for good reason

The reason why it's "complicated" is due to the fact that not only is it good practice to obtain your own boot.img it means the failure rate plummets.

Plus each step and alternative is explained and a step by step procedure documented.

Could I have shortened it? Sure.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] KRAZZIEBOY:

[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:
Why? Am I incorrect. How would you like to spend a tonne of time on a guide so it could be copied?

First I didn't copy your guide and I didn't want to. I just provided the boot img someone asked for. Also people do copy guides that's what they do if they don't have any knowledge and they still want to look techy so don't worry keep up with the good work and stay +ve.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:

[General Topics] Nasho23:
I have been given a Galaxy Note 10.1 GT N8010, which will not boot beyond the Samsung Logo and it will not go into the Recovery Menu, using Power + Volume Up Buttons, nor will it enter Safe Mode. It appears to be in a Boot Loop. It appears to be able to charge and currently the Battery Voltage is about 4.30v. I am using Genuine Charger for about 3 hours now and no difference with problem.

Unfortunately, others have tried to fix this problem, so may have created an unrecoverable problem.

I have attempted all info found on Google, with no change.

I was initially concerned that Battery may be Dead, that is why I have tried to Charge it, and because I cannot see any thing to show the level of charge, I have taken the Battery Voltage at the disconnected Battery Cable Terminal - Red to Black x 2 Both Voltages showed 4.30.

Thank You in anticipation, for your valued advice.

[Mogul, XV6800 General] JReb22:
I have found that the more messages I have in my in/out boxes for text messages, the more frequently I have to do a soft reset because WM froze. So, I periodically clear my boxes. However, I reciently got a replacement phone because of a bluetooth issue. Now, with the new phone, I cant get the messages to really delete. I have tried "Clear Text Messages," manually deleting the txts then deleting again from the deleted box, and using the "Empty Deleted Items." Each time the texts disapear, but when I do a soft reset, they return. WTF??

The phone is a stock Verizon VX6800 with no custom ROMs/Radios/etc. The only aftermarket software I have installed yet is ThemeMaster to switch my themes.

Does anyone know how to fix this?
[Mogul, XV6800 General] JReb22:
Anyone know what's going on with this?
[Mogul, XV6800 General] krnfrk6663:
Only thing I have to suggest is before you reset the device, make sure your text message app is shut off. Typically you'll lose new texts and such when you don't, works the same for everything deleted. Or just use the power button to shut it off. I heard it turns off everything for you when you do that.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] worwig:
I think this is a lot of poo myself. What does it matter if a message is setting in a file with no activity.

But yes, as mentioned, try shutting down your messaging in the running programs after you delete them. Then reset it.

[F(x)tec Pro1-X Questions & Answers] Shack01:
10 odd years ago, I bought my first Android phone. It was an HTC Evo. I discovered xda-developers, found all the CyanogenMOD ROMs, etc. for that Evo, and never looked back. In 2012/13, I 'upgraded' to a Samsung S4 and didn't bother to root it, and I've 'upgraded' hardware many times since then. There was always that; 'Why am I doing this?!?' thought, in the back of my mind...but, I needed a phone to get the job done.

So, here we are in 2020, I have a Samsung S9 that works, that I bought a little over 2 years ago, but...it has Android 10, with the Samsung embellishments, but won't see anything other than security updates going forward. About this time, 10 years ago, I bought an Asus laptop. I don't recall which version of M$ Windows was installed (according to the sticker, it was Windows 7 Home), but that's irrelevant because; A) Whichever version was installed is now obsolete, B) The day after I brought it home, it was running Gentoo Linux. This got me to wondering WHY I couldn't have a cellphone that 'just works' for more than 2.5-3 years, AND was 'current!'

I was all set to pull the trigger on a Pixel 5, through my carrier, reasoning that it was the 'flagship' of the Google line and, despite the ho-hum specs, would be supported longer than the <insert OEM here> phone. Then the ALL About ANDROID podcast (twit.tv) mentioned the Pro1-X phone in TWO consecutive podcasts! That piqued my interest! As of yesterday, I ordered a Pro1-X, with the LineageOS. This is MY way of giving back to those developers that provided me with the ROMS that I downloaded, installed, and used years ago...

ALL of my computers run a version of *nix! Hopefully, I'll be just as happy with my Pro1-X (I may upgrade to the Debian offering, if available) when the phone arrives! :fingers-crossed:
[F(x)tec Pro1-X Questions & Answers] DillonMenefee:
Completely agree with the sentiment here. I purchased my Pro1-X (XDA edition) with the hopes that instead of chasing the next flagship every year, I will finally have a phone that I can optimize and update myself, and , more importantly, a phone that is secure and can run Ubuntu Touch.

I just noticed that from the bottom speakers, only the right one fires while the left one seems dead or at least very quiet. Just up to a point, where I am suspicious if the left cut holes are only for the sake of a uniform design with no real speaker behind them.

Change

I bought the s730 for my wife and I have the Niki. They are two different phones s730 is a smartphone, no touch screen, and Niki a ppc. My wife doesn't like the Niki's keyboard and doesn't need all the flexibility of the ppc operating system. I wouldn't trade either, however, I like keypad on the front of the s730.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KotlinNoob:
ok i will try to explain as precise as possible :)

I made Android Kotlin app for learning chemical compounds. My app has a full UI where user can add his chem compounds( and they are stored in a file "compounds.txt" in the app's folder) and also app is kinda testing user by asking some questions. When you open that file "compounds.txt", it looks something like this:

Ethanol=C2H5OH

Methanol=CH3OH

Hydrogen Peroxide=H2O2

Baking Soda=NaHCO3

etc...

So... I made all this, and it works and is ok.

What I would like now?

I would like to make a home screen widget which will be like a "random test" (or "random reminder") for a user when he is not even using my app.

Example: I add my widget on my home screen next to a clock...My widget is sitting there on home screen... and I am like... I take my phone.. I make a phone call... finish the call.. and then i see on my widget written "H2SO4"..

If I know what is a H2SO4.. then cool.. I dont do anything... i just continue my life...

But... if i cant remember what is H2SO4 i would just like to click the button on my widget (or not even a button. I can click directly TextView field) and then instead of "H2SO4" will be written "Sulfuric acid"

But... I would not like when I click button on my widget, that appears main UI of my app. Simple click on a widget should just toggle text between "H2SO4" and "Sulfuric acid"

Now... the question is... How to do this?

If i have 2 KT files MainActivity.kt and Widget.kt, and if i am able somehow with Widget.kt to load file "compounds.txt" then excellent. That would be the easiest way i think. Just load file... Split lines... and every 30 min..just change the text on widget...

But... If widget.kt can't load "compounds.txt" then what would be the next best solution for me? :)

I am very sorry for my long text. English is not my native language, so it is difficult for me to express myself :)

[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] thesebastian:
Hi

I noticed that my Pixel 5, barely changes the brightness in low to medium light. (unlike my previous Pixel 4).

It changes the brightness when the light changes are big. Like jumping from a dark room, to a bright room.

But doesn't change the brightness when changes are small. Like, a dim room in the morning vs a dim room in the night. (scenarios like from 1% to 35%~ ).

So today I compared both light sensors and the Pixel 5 has different values. Then I opened "DevCheck", went to Sensors, then LIGHT and I started rotating both phones together and the Pixel 4 changes constantly but the Pixel 5 it just jumps abruptly (see below screenshots).

Is anybody having similar behavior with Adaptive Brightness?

Is your sensor behaving also like mine?

Pixel 4:

Pixel 5:

Edit: I also noticed that the Pixel 4 in a dark room reaches 0.0X (and different values between 0.0X and 1.0X) while the Pixel 5 in the same dark room reaches 1.0X.

I hope this is not a faulty sensor in my device. (So I don't have to go through RMA).

Thanks!
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] pemz82:
Mine also does this, although I havn't noticed too much of a change only coming from a Pixel 2XL.

Is it a limitation due to where the light sensor is placed?I'm assuming it's under the display (near the proximity sensor).
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] thesebastian:
I believe this is just another contra of having the stuff under the display.

However, maybe Google just needs to improve the drivers to make it work better in dark rooms.

Personally my issue is that when I need 1% brightness, phone is still like at 20%-30% brightness and vice versa.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] Andywhite321:
I don't think mine responds at all. Coming from a pixel 2xl which seemed loads better. Also my auto rotate has stopped working. Google are sending out a replacement, not good for a 2 week old phone. I'll see how the new one lasts but I'm already thinking about getting a refund and trying something else :(

[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] crazynapkinman:

So...

Local upgrade to ob3

DONT REBOOT

Magisk install direct active slot

DONT REBOOT

Magisk install inactive slot (ota)

Reboot.

Profit.
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] krakout:
You rock. So basically the classic re-installation method works, that's great :)

Though, isn't "install to active slot" redundant? I think that after the update you boot into the previously inactive slot so that's the one you must target, no?
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] crazynapkinman:
You are correct. But there's no harm in ensuring that all pathways to root are considered.

To be safe, a good practice is to flash both slots before rebooting to latest ota.

Especially for HTC home has small font like first and second screen.

Anyone can tell me how to adjust it. ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] EFN:
What font are u using now? looked like Korean to me. First of all u have to understand that in 96DPI most fonts will look really small, that's why I use Verdana for the system font because it is bigger. Also some fonts have the tendency to scale out of displayable windows.

Yes i am using korean font. brother you stay in KL.... im in SG....

initially it show normal size.

But there was problem on displaying korean font.

And i try a few way to make it work for korean. then this problem comes out.

:confused:
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] EFN:
Perhaps you can do a full export of your registry using Regedit tools (dont use PHM Regedit) and send them to me. And please also include the font itself. Maybe i can find out what's going on.

Hi ...

Just curious, i am not on this cooked ROM yet as i am still finding a way to backup the official ROM. Is the latest cooked ROM marked i780DXHE1 for both Phone and PDA ROMs?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] g00ndu:
co6ra,

i780DXHE1 is the official rom. The one which EFN cooked is only the PDA rom. There is one standard pda rom file available but if you want to do it yourself, it is relatively easy to do it. There some tools that make it easy for you.

By the way, how's your gps? Have you managed to find a fix?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] co6ra:
no....i have gave up trying...i think i have tried not less than 20 hrs..... :(

I have sent back the unit to the SSC thru my colleague. I am back to my old Benq P50. the screen looks so yellowish....:mad:

according to my colleague, when he sent the unit to SSC yesterdat, the front desk person claimed that it is the gps software issue. He said he will flash that unit with the latest ROM and test it again. If no luck, he is asking my friend to bring it to Agis support. I hate this kind of Tai-Chi service, troubling money paying customers...:mad:

guess u have backup your PDA ROM and make it flashable? Can u share with me?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] g00ndu:
That is crap! Your friend must really make noise. Don't forget that when we buy the device, it is clearly stated that Agis is bundled together with the phone. And if Agis software does not work well, it is their responsibility to make sure that the bundled software works well.

If WM 6.0 do not work well, can they say "Please take it to Microsoft?" If the ARM Cpu is faulty can they say "Please take it to XScale?"

Also, getting the signal is through the qualcomm gps chipset. You have prove that the signals are not captured (your log is the proof). This has nothing to do with the software at all.

Another thing is that there are plentiful of people who got their devices working, using the same software. If it is software issue, people would be first in line to file their complaint.

You have your rights, and it is only right (pardon the pun :D) of you to exercise them.

Tell your friend not to go to Agis, that would be pointless. If a trip need to be made, it has to be the Samsung Service Rep, not you, not your friend.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] co6ra:
ya..i know...but my friend has no knowledge in PDA at all. He does not know how to argue with the front desk personnel. I totally agree with you in the product service, we buy that unit as a bundle from Samsung, they have to make sure it works. If i were there, i sure argue with them.

Korean Fonts

Hey goodmaz,

Would like to know which font set are you using to display Korean? Did you install Diopen or SmartCJK (as asked by eunjea) or just changed the registries after installing a font set? Would like to get my i780 and wife's to display Korean.
