[Sony Xperia 10 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Simonmicro:
"FIXED" IT! I was able to boot my device using an older kernel version (adf2926e25e2a7303256e6b4431244289fb09940) - it seems like newer kernel versions have a bug inside the EXT4 filesystem driver, which causes the system to panic during decryption! I'll try to recompile my engineering build as userdebug and push it ASAP. Again, I'm very sorry for your data loss, but I hope this saves others from experiencing the same pain.
[Sony Xperia 10 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] bamdadkhan:
i understand it would be hard to maintain. not to mention the available TWRP has some issues it seems (decryption, ADB sideload etc.)

no worries, at least this reminded me that i need a proper backup solution and set up a nextcloud instance on a VPS. : )

too bad i didn't have any other option but to lose all my data and go with a different ROM for the time being. never would have suspected the ext4 module as it's so mainstream..

this makes me wonder though.. do you know of any full nandroid(-like) backup solution with LOS recovery? that way i could take a snapshot of my current working setup, flash oem from SODP and try your debug build(s) without much hassle..

Hehe - this is also my solution :)

Well, recoveries are all not happy with the FBE of newer Androids... I personally use TitaniumBackup, as it may has an very old UI (it still works) BUT needs an running OS (either fresh or your current). As your files are all encrypted using a key only available inside the physical hardware "keystore" there is no real way of just copy-paste your data, either using the raw partition-images or using file-based solutions. Any new OS installation tends to wipe that keystore and install its own keys into it.

Maybe you could try to rsync all your files from /data/data and this way circumventing the encryption. Keep in mind there is a good chance, that the OS itself uses some sort of secret key to authenticate itself against the hardware keystore - if you restore this key you will basically wipe the keystore again and this way lock the encryption again :)
[Sony Xperia 10 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] bamdadkhan:
yeah i know all about those, but TiBackup is ooooold and doesn't really handle xapks properly. rsyncing is fine, but you need a running system *or* a non-limited recovery to have access to the decrypted partition. i'm also thinking of simply using fastboot to dump the partitions one by one with a script on my laptop.. might look into that.

this reminds me how easy it was to switch between systems before LOS crippled their recovery and before all this slot a/b nonsense.. : (((
[Sony Xperia 10 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Simonmicro:
Hey,

as you guys may have already noted, I have stopped the active development phase for this LOS port a while ago. This was caused by me just not having enough time to do everything and additionally maintain a LOS port.

Today I'll upload the last maintenance build to the OTA server and mirrors. Of course I somehow included a little bug, which causes the system to complain about "an internal problem", which seem to be caused by some interaction with the OpenGApps package installer. Now, it is a feature. 😄 I'll may post one more update, if I figure this one out.

Nevertheless, I'll shut down the OTA service at 2022-06-01 (see https://status.simonmicro.de) and will then archive all project data. It was a great time to learn many (new/nasty) things about Android and how everything works. I have to say "thank you" to everyone, who supported me and was on board with this project.

See you next time,

simonmicro
[Thinkpad Tablet General] puszcza:
Hello,

I had LOS 17.1 on my tablet (Lenovo X704F). It worked fine apart from microsd reader). I tried to flash stock FW from XDA - https://xdaforums.com/thinkpad-tabl...-verison-lenovo-tab4-10-t3921073/post79328701 but it keeps reboot all the the time. I cannot finish the basic configuration process. I found another version of stock FW, but to flash it I need to boot it in EDL mode:

https://www.magnetforensics.com/blog/qualcomm-phone-edl-mode/

So not having service cable, also cannot take it apart adb was my way last time. But now cannot enter usb debugging, so adb does not see my tablet connected to the PC.

Do you have any clues what else I could do?
[Thinkpad Tablet General] boomhaueruk:

[Xiaomi Mi 10T / 10T Pro Questions & Answers] albsat:
Coming from custom ROMs in my other phones I am really impressed by the Miui 12. So nice . However I miss 2 things:

1. Is there an option to unlink Ring volume from Notification volume like in lineage ?

2. Also is it possible to customise navigation bar buttons , like home button you will perform certain task like in lineage :) .?

Thanks
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] jljtgr:
Ever since I updated to coral-rp1a.201105.002, some time in the middle of the day I'll notice that my notifications no longer vibrate and I have no haptic feedback. Toggling the settings for feedback or asking Tasker to directly create a vibrate pattern do nothing. Restarting the phone fixes it... until maybe 12-24 hours later where it might happen again. It's hard to tell when it starts since I have to actively use the phone to know for sure. I feel like it happens about once a day, though it might have skipped a day somewhere.

Unfortunately, running rooted, with EdXposed gives a lot of additional vectors for where the issue could come from. I'm not sure I'm at the point where I want to disable things to figure it out. Doesn't seem to be A11 specific as it was fine before the November update. A11 just feels less polished than A10 in several ways and somehow it's getting worse with updates. I wonder if it's time for my phone's first full wipe since I got it.

Mostly I'm wondering if anyone else has seen this before... where it will happen almost daily. Next time it happens, I might look into logcat to see if something is mentioned somehow.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] v12xke:
There are several easy ways to rule out hardware. Why not start there? The update timing was just coincidence. If you used the OTA update method before, try flashing the full image.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] jljtgr:
I have never once used an OTA in any form.

You say coincidence, but it's still a strong one. Never happened before to happening every day just after updating...
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] jljtgr:
To be clear, when I say hardware issue... I don't mean a hardware defect. My assumptions, based on the logcat, is that a sequence of commands gets sent to the vibrator IC that the IC doesn't like and sets it into an invalid state where the error register needs to be reset to resume functionality. But the HAL doesn't have a code path for detecting this or resetting when an error is encountered. Resetting the phone may interrupt power on the microcontroller or, as part of setup, send a sequence of initialization commands that clears the error.

What causes the invalid state could be the update itself having code paths that are more likely to corrupt the IC's state when acting normally, or something like Xposed is hooking one of these functions but is randomly crashing which aborts one/many commands. Updates always carry the risk of upsetting Xposed in some weird way. I don't trust downgrading Android versions without full wipes, so I'm going to resist that until the end.

Or lastly, sure... it could be a coincidence and the vibrator IC is failing somehow where it self-inflicts the invalid state and needs to be reset where Android doesn't account for this possibility and restarting the phone is the only way to fix it.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Zetsubou Sensei:
Bumping this thread because this is still happening and it's driving me crazy. @jljtgr have you had any revelations as to what's causing this problem on your end?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] jljtgr:
Resuming what was said in the kernel thread... I don't use any System UI mods or substratum themes. At the moment, I'm not running any Xposed Framework or its prerequisites such as Riru Core.

I cleared EXKM's data before installing Kirisakura... but only got about 36 hours running before losing vibration. I completely uninstalled EXKM and I'm currently 145 hours running without issue. I have not tried installing the Clean Slate configuration apps yet.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Zetsubou Sensei:
Appreciate the feedback sir. I tried reinstalling everything and ran into the issue, so it's back to uninstalling EXKM :/
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] jljtgr:
After 360 hours, vibration failed... then 40 hours later it failed again. I was willing to overlook 15 days of no issues, but the 40 hours is more concerning.

January update with only Kirisakura installed, EXKM is not, Clean Slate etc was not.

Yes, the 3.5mm headphone jack is gone but I think the USB C port does audio.

This is the screen displayed when opening the NextRadio app on the Galaxy Note 20;

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Jake.S:
That's not how it works. When 3.5mm Jack was there the headphones had built in antenna inside them and from there it could connect the antenna to port so phone could use that antenna on FM radio.

But since its usb type c the antenna in the headphones are also gone which makes the FM radio no longer functioning.

So you would have to buy 3.5mm to usb type c and use that to hopefully get antenna back.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Airstream25:
The question of an antenna is an important one.

It is interesting to read the note from the NextRadio app, it suggests the issue is with the wireless carrier. In my case, Verizon.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
Its not a carrier issue. Its an antenna issue. Go break the antenna off your car and see how well your car radio works for FM.

Same here. The headphone wire itself acted as an antenna when plugged into the 3.5mm port. The USB C port may be able to send audio to your headphones, but it doesn't act like an antenna like the 3.5mm port did.

So i've finally unlocked the bootloader on my device and i was wondering which are the best custom roms for this phone. Thanks in advance.
[Xiaomi Mi CC9 / Mi 9 Lite Questions & Answers] eng.3aref:
Hello my fellow

I've tried a couple of custom roms and I settled on PixelExperience Plus Edition, been using it for a 6 weeks now, here is my opinion:

Pros:

Lovely ROM, beautiful and elegant, get the best of google pixel phones stuff on your mi 9 lite

Almost everything works with no issues, no freezes or error or restarts or whatsoever

The settings are easy to navigate and well-organized (Used to get lost in MIUI 12 settings)

Feels fast and responsive

Has a good degree of customizability (Very enough for me)

Cons:

Slightly more power-consuming than MIUI 12 (mot much bothered by that)

Bad camera, seriously the camera part is the worst and I couldn't port MIUI's camera of find a good alternative, and I lost hope on making the wide lens work

No music or video player by default (Using Frolomuse and VLC and got used to them)

Fingerprint and Face ID work but not as fast or as accurate as on MIUI 12.

Calculator app sucks, I installed Mi Calculator instead, works fine

Gonna keep using until it lets me down

Happy custom-roming!
[General Questions and Answers] 8bit_coder:
I've scoured through the deepest depths of the internet but still, I've been unable to find a working google camera port for this android version.

It's strange because:

1. This phone is running Android 10

2. It has level 3 support for the camera2 api(level 3 means FULLY supported)

3. It's running a snapdragon 450, which is also on the samsung a20s, which for some reason DOES have a google camera port

Every single app I've tried gives the generic "app not installed" error, even though I meet ALL the requirements. This phone is perfectly capable of running the Google Camera app, so why is it that none of the ports work? This is a fairly popular mid-range phone so I don't understand why nobody has ported it to this phone yet.

[General Questions and Answers] Fandroid Tech:
It does not work because samsung put a 32-bit (armhf/armv7l) version of android on the devices. The CPU is 64 bit but it is running a 32 bit OS. The explanation from samsung is that they did is because their low end devices have very little ram. Also the kernel uses the ondemand cpu governer, it is ****. Android 12 is said to run only on arm64 devices, so maybe when we get android 12 in a few months it will finally work.

Im using whatsapp groups for almost 1 year. I started joining and creating groups from my personal number. So firstly the problem is that whatsapp holds 66GB of storage and secondly the backup process is a nightmare. I don't have to mention the restore process witch is worst than backup. I also forgot Google drive backup that is also endless.. I have several questions.

1.can I transfer with some way groups to a new number?

2. Can I edit the crypt12 db of backup so I can remove some groups that I was banned or I exit from them? This is because I tryed deleting almost 200 groups with some conversations and the deleting process was about to take almost 1 month without letting me use the app in the same time..

3. Is there any other option so I can delete some groups or worthless conversations so I gain some space so the backup could me smaller?

Long story short: I have a new Poco X3 NFC on the way I want to extract the mail database from K-9 Mail on my aging Mi A2 Lite. I am still using POP3 (silly me) and I would somehwat hate to lose all my local mail copies on my phone. It's not possible to get to the database without root and my phone isn't rooted. Root can only be achived with unlocked bootloader but unlocking the bootloader will wipe all data.

I've read this super cool guide to evade the wipe by marstonpear but from the comments it seems that this doesn't work on Android Q (or 10) which my phone is at.

Can anyone confirm that this really doesn't work on Q?

Is there a way to downgrade without unlocking the bootloader or am I stuck?

You may be able to use adb backup without unlocking the bootloader to backup the k9 data and restore to the new phone?

The bootloader unlock without data wipe is possible but be very careful. Lots of people have lost data.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] mizi_:
You can try to activate a mailbox with a provider with IMAP service. You configure it on k9 and move the emails to the new account verifying that they are also copied to the server via imap service. After on the new mobile you can decide to move them back to the main account.

[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] LEECH666:
Thank you for the hints, but I think adb backup is exclusively not supported due to privacy concerns. All in all the backup / migration situation on Android is still extremely terrible.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers] LEECH666:
Thank you, that's an interesting approach. I will try to figure this out before trying to unlock the bootloader as this seems less prone to complete dataloss.

I know next to nothing about how IMAP works besides that all mail reside on the server and are centrally organized (and synced between clients?). I've always used POP3 and it works well enough for me. Thunderbird on the PC with POP3 is my main client so I never felt the need to switch, in fact IMAP wasn't even supported for a long time with my main email provider and space was scarce.
