Dear moderation team/Committee.

Take this as caveat, I want to say something about my fixed official version of app before it get nods for further cosmetic changes.

I am travelling, give me little time (not more than 24 hrs) to make some concern.

[About XDA developers] IronTechmonkey:
IMO, considering your previous posts in this thread I would say it might be humor playing off of your username, or case of mistaken identity.

[EDIT]Wait a minute...

You started it! :D OK, so humor, and it worked on me.

Also, I've experience similar download issues with XDA, technologically if not biologically, and also use browsers instead, again technologically rather than biologically.

[About XDA developers] Retrial:
Doc, is it possible to put back the titles at the navigation bar instead of just icons? Sometimes I am confused by just looking the icon 🤪
[About XDA developers] dr.ketan:
Check this

Same as previous (dark bottom bar) except showing title

Edit : Added White & Dark bottombar version.
[About XDA developers] Retrial:
It's showing the titles 👍 but the navigation bar is white.
[About XDA developers] dr.ketan:
Reuploaded and added dark bottombar (Named it accordingly), Kindly check again

My screen will turn off black light in 10 sec, if i tap anywhere on screen or press any buttons, it will not turn on.

I can only activate it using the power button

.. how can i modify it so that it will become active by any key press?

thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] veyka:
settings > system > keylock >

Try "lock buttons if device is locked"

or in settings > system > power > advanced

you can set how quickly the device will turn off.

settings > system > backlight < battery power

for the backlight off time.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ultramag69:
You could also pick "Do not lock buttons" in the key lock settings but that means ANY button gets pressed you're backlight is back on and you could be doing ANYTHING...

Unless you have a lock program - like S2U2 - then you might not like the results & be spending BIG $$ on phone calls and browsing you didn't mean to do...

Cheers...:D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] silicuda:
thanks for the replies

one more question, other than the S2U2... are there any programs/software for the hermes that when the black light turns off it can be reactivated if i slide open the phone (or press the power button)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] veyka:
This is a beta program then there is This, which is configed with an XML, tried this one, its good.

There will never be any software that allows actions based on sliding open/closed, unlike with the Kaiser. (something about it not being a software rotation but a hardware one)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] silicuda:
thanks veyka!

PS: i just noticed your benchmark post, helped me decide which rom i installed on my new phone (i just got the phone yesterday, and after a few hours of reading decided on the CRCs V12.10 WM6.1 rom :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] veyka:
Your more than welcome! And thats the aim, to help people chose without flashing everything under the sun like i did :D (ps good choice :p)

i'm happy with it so far, i installed HTC Home so I can have live weather, now playing with favorite people :) Runs fast as hell, awesome phone. :)

[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] sunNsnow:
For clarification because my unlocked 3XL OTAs never had separate carrier updates like this: the Verizon update is for ALL phones (unlocked and VZ locked) on the Verizon network?

If so, does this have to do with the mmwave 5G network configuration?

[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] klabit87:
This is ridiculous. On my unlocked Pixel 2 XL i never had to wait on vzw. I always got updates the same time all other pixels go them.

Yes, I believe I read that was the reason a few weeks ago.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] steejo:
On Visible, still no update yet.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] InfX:
Same, but what makes you think its carrier dependent? Visible phones are the same as ones sold by Google and/or Bestbuy as unlocked. I am thinking to download the "RQ1A.201205.011" from Google and ADB-sideload it via recovery, but kinda waiting to see if nobody has just done this and had nasty consequences, such as data wipe, bootloops, etc. I am not eager to hard-reset.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] KHANrad_SIN:
So I updated to the december security patch and after I flashed my magisk patched boot.img the battery icon in the status bar is acting weird. It looks empty with no white in the middle, anyone else getting this?

[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] SwimDrewid:
I'm a bit confused by the various carrier flavors of OTA -- I purchased my (unlocked) pixel 5 from the google store but I use ATT for carrier service.

Will flashing the ATT flavor lock my device in some capacity? Or is that just for radio?

Thank you!!
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] InfX:
Good question, i'd usually assume ROM doesn't affect SIM lock in any way or form, but i'd be reluctant to flash an update that contains a carrier junk in it, and possibly a locked bootloader i may end up being unable to reflash again.

I really don't think the ROM you flash should depend on the carrier you are currently on, and i wouldn't flash a carrier-customized one.

Why would you want to flash the ATT version on it?
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] corywf:
I have the VZW version and it sucks they aren't releasing the update till next week. What is in the build that's different from the non-vzw versions? Hate vzw but the black friday deal was too good to pass up.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] Deleted member 739586:
Anybody knows anything about any fixes and functional changes besides the feature drop? Each month, Google lists the Pixel specific fixes like this:

Google Android Pixel Security Update - November 2020 - Google Pixel Community

support.google.com

This month, the accoring page just talks about "several fixes and improvements across many areas including performance, stability, battery, and more":

Google Android Pixel Security Update - December 2020 - Google Pixel Community

support.google.com

I am really interested in knowing wether the infamous "GPay payments fail" issue was fixed for the P5.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] marc.ientilucci:
If I bought the unlocked Pixel 5 from the google store and have verizon as my carrier, which OTA should I sideload?
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] ulxerker:
The one that's coming on 14.12.2020. Verizon builds are always a week behind.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
What is the payment fail? I'd like to know if the 5G with dual sim (dsds) made it into the build.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] :
If you migrate from an older Pixel via cable (like I did), GPay payments fail with an unknown error. Neither does cleaning the app cache+storage and re-adding the cards fix it, nor does wiping and reinstalling (works only for some while it does not for others). Therefore I hesitate to wipe my device since it may cause a lot of work without fixing the issue.

Further information can be found here: https://support.google.com/pixelphone/thread/77996914?hl=en
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
Now I remember. Wow I thought that was fixed but I guess not. Why not take the hour and wipe it? I use it all the time so I'd have to but that depends on how much you need it. I think I would remove the cards you currently have first then do the wipe. Damn what a pain.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] :
Not everything is restored after wiping, lots of apps require to be reconfigured. I'd rather avoid this.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
I know. It will probably take you about an hour. Some apps will auto fill in credentials. Still a royal pain.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] :
And it is not 100% guaranteed it will work after a wipe. So I'd prefer a fix of the root cause.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
I don't believe they are acknowledging it, however. At least not yet. It's been a month since and no reply from Google as far as I can tell. So you think it's software and not hardware? Have you tried the new GP?
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] digger16309:
Super frustrating moving to a Pixel 5....

What does this mean? I use AT&T as my carrier but I bought my phone fully, globally unlocked from any carrier and the bootloader is also now unlocked after the November update.

Is the 010 image for AT&T-locked bootloaders only?

Is the 011 image inclusive of all unlocked devices, no matter the carrier?

Why is Verizon even noted if their bootloaders are locked?

11.0.0 (RQ1A.201205.010, Dec 2020, AT&T)

11.0.0 (RQ1A.201205.011, Dec 2020, All carriers except AT&T and Verizon)
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
@digger16309 Not all users on Verizon have locked bootloaders. You can use any unlocked device on Verizon. I'm on Verizon and can unlock my bl and flash any image I want. It's been a while but I think all full images are for bl unlocked phones and all OTA images are for locked ones.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] digger16309:
OK, fair enough on VZ. I should have thought of that. I'm still unclear though as to which image I'm supposed to flash to update my carrier-unlocked, bootloader-unlocked device if AT&T is my carrier (or if that matters).
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] InfX:
Locked bootloader doesn't mean you can't sideload ROMs. What it means is that you can't sideload UNSIGNED ROMs, and thats an important distinction. You CAN sideload an official stock image without unlocking the bootloader, and in fact, i actually did after not receiving the December updates for 1.5 days 😃
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] InfX:
As for what to flash on it - check if its currently running the previous generic build, and if it is, just flash the generic build.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] digger16309:
What is the generic build? I don't see one. I'm on RD1A.200105.003.C1 which is the generic build for the November patch. The only two options for December are:

11.0.0 (RQ1A.201205.010, Dec 2020, AT&T)

11.0.0 (RQ1A.201205.011, Dec 2020, All carriers except AT&T and Verizon)

So is .011 the generic build?
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] InfX:
Yep. The 010 is an AT&T customized one. And there should be one more, Verizon-customized, which isn't there yet. I had the same one on mine before flashing RQ1A.201205.011 as well. So far so good.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
I haven't bl unlocked in some time but don't you get an OTA when available even unlocked? If I see a specific build for my carrier I would certainly load that image even if I have to wait the week, which I do now and did last month. The thing about the November build you are on is that there was no ATT specific build like they have in December. Last month was odd because all VZW customers did not get the OTA until a week later and no one knew what was going on. Then it was announced it would be a week late whereas this month they specified every carrier and excepted Verizon.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
Really? Wow I've been out of the game for longer than I care to think about. I only thought you could sideload an OTA not a full image with a locked bl.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] uicnren:
You flash factory images, which require an unlocked bootloader, regardless of carrier.

Full OTA images are sideloaded via ADB/FASTBOOT without needing an unlocked bootloader.

They are equivalent, software wise, besides the requirement (or not) of an unlocked bootloader.

The main difference being that normally when during the process, you unlock/lock the bootloader the device is wiped, bringing it back to a factory state. Whereas, sideloading the OTA will not return it to a factory state.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] sunNsnow:
As an FYI for those thinking of sideloading the global OTA onto their unlocked (purchased from Google) Pixel 5 while on Verizon: I did that for November's update and did notice that I completely lost signal one day in an area that I normally would have signal. It was about five mile stretch of road in a town where I normally travel and has decent 4G signal. I've traveled this stretch of road before during the month and no issues except this one time.

I don't know if it has anything to do with sideloading the global version of November's update or Verizon having trouble that day (down detector was reporting complaints for Verizon Wireless that day, along with a bunch of services using AWS).

Otherwise, I had no issues with my wireless service. (Other than thinking it's b s that it says "5G" all the time, when I know I'm in a 4G area.)

Edit: I did not receive the December OTA despite being on the global version of OS. I think the Verizon SIM somehow prevents the global OTA.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
Yeah, that's what I thought. @InfX You might want to verify your experience. I didn't think you could flash a full image yet you said you did.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] digger16309:
I had a bad Magisk module corrupt my device and I had to factory reset today. When I did, I flashed the original image (October) then let it update itself to November, then update again to December. Google pushed out the AT&T 010 December update to me, not the global one 011. I had an AT&T Sim card inserted at the time, so I'm assuming there is good reason to be on that variant if your carrier is AT&T.
[Magisk] aviranx:
i know bigger font size per app can be done through app settings with exposed, and nsfw gboard as well. but i have android 10, and im not risking bootloop(again). are there modules for this goal?
[Magisk] toolhas4degrees:
Idk about font size per app but a module would do all not per app so I don't think you will see that. nsfw is only on exposed repo
[Magisk] allday5850:
The font size per app thing can't be done. You would need to restart your phone each time you wanted a different size. You can change the font size without a module with the System UI Tuner app. You don't even need root for that just grant through adb

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] whatseemstobetheproblem:
I have changed the motherboard, battery and the charging port, and the phone doesn't charge! How is that possible?

When I got the phone it had humidity error triangle, so i changed the port. After that I was only once able to charge the phone (with a new battery), over wireless charging.

Since that it didn't want to charge showing the exclamation mark in a triangle. So i changed the board, and still doesn't charge either way.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
Do a hard reboot.

It boots right? What's it's battery status when plugged in?

Clear system cache on boot menu.

Use known good* charger and cable.

If no joy...

Inspect internal connections; make sure none were damaged and are properly seated.

Carefully check that V+ and ground are indeed making it to the mobo when connected.

Ohming it out from the mobo through the port to cable end be safest though and would verify the cable as well.

*not the same as new; it's been proven to work!
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Ides:
(I should have posted this in the Artemis section)

Here's an oddity...

I have an O2 charger believed suitable for an O2 XDA Orbit (HTC3300). The label on the side is "Strax (E11) 10R-02 4018". It's maybe lucky the cable termination was faulty and when I broke the connector apart to examine, I found not just the outer 5V and -Ve but also their neighbouring contacts factory soldered together i.e. 1&2 to 5V and 4&5 to Gnd.

Very puzzling because that puts -Data to 5V and ID/Key to Gnd!

Can anyone cast some light on this please?
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] mirceasy:
Hi guys,

I have an unlocked AT&T LG V35, model LM-V350AWM, which has Android 8.0.0.

I'm using a different telecom operator than AT&T and I live in an Eastern European Country.

I've searched for a newer Android version on https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-lmv350awm-firmwares/, but only 8.x is available there.

Could you please help me update the phone to Android 9 or 10?
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] raitchison:
I'm in the same boat as you, supposedly you can install one of the Android 9 builds available at the site you linked. For example this one: https://lg-firmwares.com/downloads-file/19020/V350ULM10i_00_NAO_US_OP_0221

I haven't done it myself because I'm waiting for Android 10 to be released, but it's seeming less likely that will ever happen.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] JaySarreau:
I was given a Pixel 2 XL by a friend, and it had an unlocked bootloader, but I couldn't tell whether or not he tried to root it. And I couldn't use some GPay features, which I'd like to. So to be safe, I went through the process of flashing a stock image using Google's instructions: boot bootloader via ADB, didn't have to unlock my bootloader as it was already unlocked, and then used flash-all with the stock Android 11 image I had downloaded from Google. Didn't re-lock because I still wasn't sure that it was because of the unlocked bootloader that I couldn't use those features, but upon trying to use them I found it that it is. So now I'd like to lock the bootloader, which Google also has instructions for, but I'm concerned because everything I read makes re-locking sound like a toss-up that might end in a bricked phone.

Do I have need to be worried? Some things I read say to do a factory reset before flashing, some say to flash it more than once, before re-locking the bootloader; is that necessary? Should I factory reset before using ADB/Fastboot to re-lock it? Should I re-flash the stock image, just to be paranoid about it? Or was it sufficient the first time, with no need to reset beforehand because locking the bootloader will erase all my user data anyway?

I just really don't want to brick my phone trying to get it back to a normal, stock state.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Larzzzz82:
Download the latest update and install that. Doing that will wipe the phone and remove root. It'll be like taking it off of the box brand new.

BEFORE you relock it, reboot it and make sure it works. Once you're satisfied that it works, then relock it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] JaySarreau:
Awesome, thank you, that worked well for me.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] phineous:
Did you re-lock the bootloader yet? The old problem of no USB ADB/file access is showing up again for me on build RP1A.201005.004, Oct 2020 with Oct 5th security update.

There's a new factory image, RP1A.201005.004.A1, Dec 2020 that I hope is the fix, but I can't install it because my bootloader isn't unlocked and I can't get ADB to connect other than through wireless.

Double check your USB ADB/file transfer before you re-lock and turn off automatic updates.

[Moto Z2 Force  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] luizborges:
I flashed a stock firmware, but something went wrong, now I cannot unlock the bootloader because I can't get online using wifi or my sim card because the mobile doesn't detect them.

Is there a save?
[Moto Z2 Force  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] filthyfnj24:
Sounds like you flashed firmware containing the wrong baseband. Luckily it's an easy fix. You'll need to download the latest and CORRECT firmware for your specific device.

[Android Head-Units] huggy54:
Apologies if this has been asked before, but I have a Android joying headunit and having an issue in regards to satnav. Now I use Google maps and I can set a destination and the app knows my current location but once I'm driving the satnav app doesn't update my location (it still registers me at the initial starting location).

At first I thought could it be a GPS issue, but GPS always seems to know my current location once I start any app that needs my location, the problem only happens once I'm on the move it doesn't update it on the app. So baffled whether its a GPS issue or app issue?

Has anyone had a similar issue or know if a possible resolve?
