Any known bugs with this build, guys? FOD working good?

What camera is this ROM using? Can MIUI camera be installed?
[Xiaomi Mi 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] newbieP9:
Want to say thanks to the Dev team, great work!

This rom is brilliant, I installed it yesterday and haven't encountered any bugs so far. I'm not using magisk so can't comment on that. The FOD works fast with no issues for me and the camera, I think, is URNYX gcam.

Keep up the outstanding work!

Regards

Also, is there a gcam xml for Mi9? i used the one provided on an other thread but it crashes the app
[Xiaomi Mi 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] antykat:
Try Urnyx's 7.3 v2.5 and this (below) xml. Best combo in my opinion.

Thank you so much.. i will try it
[Xiaomi Mi 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] xanthos.ath:
I havent stopped asking questions, but i will ask a very basic one. What is the process of installing magisk?.

I installed the classic magisk debug and then the magisk manager , but the security check fails. Also there is this flashable DFE that many people talk about, but when i flash it, system never boots, it stucks.

Dows any of you installed magisk successfully with this Rom?

Could you share instructions and maybe links ?

thank you in advance!!
[Xiaomi Mi 9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Laptapper:
I think magisk debug or modded is no more necessary since 21.4

Try to uninstall magisk complete and reinstall magisk 21.4 zip

[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] batfink1:
I'm coming from an Exynos Note 9 with a bixby button remapped to an ultra bright torch that works with screen off or on, I find it incredibly useful. I'm already losing a true notification led, I really don't want to give up my torch button.

Does anybody know if button mapper works with the silent/dnd slider on the Oneplus 8 pro, does button mapper see it as a retargetable torch button, and does the hardware support the extra bright option.

Lux light meter registers my normal torch as 580 somethings (haha I'm uncertain if it's lumens or candles) and my extra bright as 1500, so the over burn mode is considerably brighter.

If I knew someone with the phone I'd test, the only other way is ask here or take a leap of faith and buy a $1200 to $1300 AU phone.

Also does the Xray camera filter still have the Xray functionality, I can't think of many uses for it, but still... WHO doesn't want an Xray filter on their phone.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] addsfsds:
I never used a button remapper but you can set a gesture to open the torch. Hope this helps.

About "xray" camera there are fine guides that explain how to reactivate it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GBAFan:
I was recently gifted a lovely Lenovo Tab M8 FHD tabled, and while the hardware and overall design is very spiffy, Android 10 is absolutely horrible on it. Android 10 is using up massive amount of resources, has some real bad optimization issues and it's just bad in general. I checked the official Lenovo forums and there are tons of threads about how the Android 10 OTA update that was not announced or anything has caused issues with their devices. I read both on there multiple times, and in a thread on here that it's possible to use the Lenovo rescue and recovery tool to install Android 9 through putting the old rom in a folder that has the name of the most up to date rom. I found two separate roms with the same name, if slightly different file sizes while I was combing through the internet, and while I tried to use both to get Android 9 on my device, neither worked. So, I am hoping and praying that someone on xda can give me some badly needed help with a link or even vague directions toward where I can get the firmware I so seek. I am rambling on a bit and I do apologize for that, but I can sincerely say that it would be a big weight off my metaphorical chest if I could get some help with this. Thanks for reading my post. Also, I apologize if I mixed up rom and firmware at times.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xaforib:
Just got Tab M8 FHD and decided to give Android 9 a try since tablet is more laggy than I though.

I got rom from https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/lenovo/Tab_M8_FHD/TB-8705F/

Flashed it with SP_Flash_Tool, using the Download agent MTK_AllInOne_DA_6765.bin (found in the archive with the ROM) (I disabled "Check LIB DA match" in Flash tool options).

Rom TB-8705F_S100099_200706_BMP.zip is Android 9. Got Magisk and EdXposed running.

Maybe it's just in my mind but it does seem faster than Android 10 - well at least when scrolling through menus or browsing Play Store. Overall performance is probably the same so downgrading won't make games / apps run smoother.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zero_Shadow:
After you installed Android 9, did you have to use the disbale vbmeta method like they did in Android 10 to get root or did you have to use another method?

HI , friends i been trying to sim unlock my new tytn2 which is in uk orange network now.

I tried to install hard spl, i m new to this technical worlds like cooked rom, new hard spl etc ,.any one please tell me how to do this step by step,

When i tried to install hard spl, there comes a tricolor screen first white screen with progress bar 0% , and after some time it stucks and in pc shows error message. tried with jump spl method described by some one, in the kaiser section, what is the meaning of wm6 and wm6.1

Following are the details of my phone

R 1.27.12.29

G 22.45.88.07H

D 1.81.00.00

KAIS130

SPL-1.81.0000

CPLD-8

What should i do to get my phone unlocked, plz help i assure 5 pounds to the one who has time to help me in this. cheers friends.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DaveShaw:
WM6 and WM6.1 are Versions of Windows Mobile, see Settings, About on your phone.

Looking at the Radio version, you are a WM6.0 user still.

To install Hard SPL read here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=334679

If you get a white screen, read here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=354061

Once you have Hard SPL complete, you can SIM Unlock, read here: http://xdaforums.com/newreply.php?do=newreply&noquote=1&p=2572785

I suggest you read here Getting Started and on the XDA Wiki, there is lots of information on the HTC Kaiser page that covers the basics.

It is appreciated to search and read before posting new threads when the information is already available. If you get stuck with one part, re-read the thread, search for your problem, and then (and only then) post in

the thread

you are trying to follow.

Thanks

Dave
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pappoos4u:
thanks dave.but i tried it, i couldnt even install hard spl, i dont know what happens when i run jumpspl also it shows white screen no further actions takes place. i dont know what to do now.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DaveShaw:
Try SSPL First, then JumpSPL 1.56, then JumpSPL 1.93. one should work.

[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] BurnsMotorCycle:
Happy new year! I was hoping to bring in the new year with root, but strangely with this version when ever I boot into "bootloader" from the recovery menu, the device screen is blank, and adb does not detect anything.

Would someone be gracious enough to provide a step by step root for this particular US variant? I can send you a gift card if you get me running with just root!

Thank You!
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] BurnsMotorCycle:
It's a $100 USD Gift card btw. I would send it to you via a direct message, or I can send you some crypto if you provide me your wallet should the root prove successful (for same amount). Thank you and have a happy new year!
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] PPGX5II:
On other thread you mentioned that `fastboot devices` gives nothing. I suspect that you are missing drivers for your device so try installing drivers first. Try these: Xperia 5 II driver - Sony Developer World ?
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] BurnsMotorCycle:
I saw that link before, but my device was not specifically listed. I'll try it anyway and hope that it works.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] BurnsMotorCycle:
I boot into the "Fastbootd" menu on the phone, and then plug the device into my machine. when I run the "fastboot device" command I get:

fastboot: usage: unknown command device

When I then try the second method of connecting to fastboot (by holding down the volume up button while at the same time plugging the device in as per the instructions here: https://developer.sony.com/develop/...der/how-to-unlock-bootloader/#tutorial-step-2), the phone screen is blank.

I then try running the command "fastboot device" and I just get a "waiting for any device". Thanks for taking a look and let me know what else needs to be done!

Also I tried installing the drivers, and that did not work either. I still get the error "fastboot: usage: unknown command device"
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] PPGX5II:
Did you follow: Install OEM USB drivers | Android Developers ?

If so Can you see if device is detected properly in Device Manager?
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] BurnsMotorCycle:
I see the issue now, I've been typing "Fastboot device" instead of "fastboot devices". I managed to successfully unlock the bootloader! Now how do I go about achieving root access?

btw the screen is still blank when I plug in the phone via the "Volume Up + USB connect" way of getting access to fastboot, if that makes a difference.

Also as

A WARNING

for anyone following this thread, unlocking the bootloader immediately initiates a wipe of the device. I had no problem with that since this is a brand new phone that I just got and am trying to unlock. Also, I am on:

Android 10

Build #: 58.0.A.22.21
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] PPGX5II:
Follow this guide to get root access: [GUIDE][WIN10] Bootloader Unlock/Re-Lock, Rooting with Magisk and flashing Firmwares | XDA Developers Forums (xda-developers.com)

As you have unlocked bootloader I believe you only need steps 25-27 to get root access.

Note: Read thread completely so that you can take backup if needed and also make sure you install all required things.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] BurnsMotorCycle:
I'll try this out when I get back to my house. If it works, ill send you the gift card information. Please note that the gift card that I have works only in the US, so if you want to make some other arrangement, let me know.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] PPGX5II:
Thanks! But I just wanted to help you out. I won't be taking any gift cards in return! :)

If you want you can donate it to some of these developers so that they can work on supporting more!

Cheers and Happy New Year! (y)
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] BurnsMotorCycle:
It Worked! I appreciate your help, but I mostly just followed the link you provided from

Miustone. Thank you to him and you both! That Thread should definitely be pinned in the

"Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe" section too!

Ill donate to Miustone, and have a happy new year!

EDIT: Darn looks like Miustone only takes paypal, which I don't have (I have crypto). Thanks again for the help everyone!

Hi to participants of this thread,

can you tell me how you backed up the DRM keys before rooting?
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] Mackay53:
No because you can't
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] momba5:
I also have Sony Xperia 5 II XQ-AS62 and I've found myself in a similar situation as burnsmotorcycle but I think it's because I have TWRP installed. More specifically, I see my device when I run "adb devices", I get nothing when I run "fastboot devices", and I get TWRP when I run "adb reboot recovery".

Does anyone know how I can uninstall TWRP? Please note, my device still has the bootloader unlocked, fastboot commands are unresponsive now that TWRP is present, and ADB and Magisk seems to be the only tools available to me right now.

Thanks for support
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] hammered58:
You could try installing twrp ,formating , wipe data by typing yes, then try the sd card ruu method again or a backup if you have one, you could also place a "ota" on your sd card go into your stock recovery via bootloader , once at the red x symbol press both the power and volume up ,release , you should get a menu,, pick your "ota" from the list. You can also try factory reset from this list. Hth ,,Good luck. OTA are here

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] penfold:
This must be a bug with the last update to android 11 and one ui 3.

I have the exact same problem.

My battery usage just stopped showing any app usage whatsoever.

As per the suggestion above, if i set the date back to December 31 the app usage shows, and still shows if you switch the date forward again, but as soon as you reboot the phone the app usage no longer show.

Evidently there is a bug that starts with the date change from 2020 to 2021.

Also wether it is related or not, looking through the settings I saw the 'data usage access' for 'device care' was off...i tried toggling it on but it made no difference.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] spring80:
For me,the problem is fix by factory reset , but this was too much annoying to reinstall from scratch

Descendant is a customised Android ROM that focuses on enhancing UX and UI

over stock Android along useful features.

Downloads

Head to the download page.

Github

Same as any ROM.

Do the necessary wipes and flash the ROM.

No wipes are needed between updates from Descendant itself, unless specified.

If you're having problem with SafetyNet, please, install Magisk along the following modules:

SafetyPatcher, Magisk Hide Props or similar modules.

But please, mind, we won't support any issue arising from Magisk nor relative modules.

Listing all the additions would be a huge wall of text, that you wouldn't even read.

So, head over the Telegram group and feel free to lurk.

Preloaded applications

Google Apps are included along Kiwi Browser and Metro.

Only Wi-Fi Display.

Having a bug or not booting for whatever reason?

Look for "How to report bugs" on this post.
