Try lowering minimum width. Enable developer option and scroll down to it, I don't know if you can go below 300dp, that's gonna be very tiny anyways.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] scoobiesnacks:
I raised the width setting from 384 to 500. That's seems to have worked. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] jutley:
Go into developer mode then set smallest width DPI to 511 default is 411 bingo looks great now :)
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Questions & Answers] TheMadcapl:
I recently bought Mi note 10 lite and its on miui 11 right now. Since I won't be able to roll back the firmware I wanted to ask which one should I use to update. Should I update to lates official rom from ota? Is there any complaints about the updates?
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Questions & Answers] :
Wait until MIUI 12.5 as MIUI 12.0, 12.1 and 12.2 drains battery crazy.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Questions & Answers] TheMadcapl:
how do we know that 12.5 will battery optimized?
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Questions & Answers] leinadagisiaol:
If it can be reversed, at least I did it from Android 11 (miui 12.1.1), I was in global miui 12.0.3 and also tried miui eu, however I ended up going back to the factory ROM.

The best ROM for the mi note 10 Lite is miui 11.0.8 in performance and battery.

regards
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Questions & Answers] :
This can be concluded as 'Do not update.'

The main concern now is about the old security patch, which may risk the data in the device from hacking. An alternative attempt to fix security problems is to install trusty ( I mean famous and good rated) antimalware app(s), which may take a little bit of storage and use a little bit of battery.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Questions & Answers] :
AOSP or debloated roms can be also nice battery-wise and speed-wise, but there are stability concerns, bugs and can also affect security.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Questions & Answers] leinadagisiaol:
The issue of security is relative in the devices because it will depend on the type of use you give it, personally I still do not think there is a stable and secure ROM better than Miui 11.0.8 (at the moment).

As I discussed earlier, I have tested all the official ROMs on this device and none will be better in fluidity and battery management than the factory ROM.

We'll see what happens to miui 12.5, but for now I'm staying where I am.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Questions & Answers] leinadagisiaol:
You are absolutely right, it is better to wait a few months while we see how the official and custom ROMs evolve because at the moment there is nothing stable.

Greetings.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Questions & Answers] :
It may be worth mentioning that it is rumored that MIUI 12.5 is fluid but battery is still kind of, bad. The MIUI 12.5 is still in alpha state (China devloper version) though, hope that the battery drain is fixed in the final stable build.

We might need to wait for MIUI 13 and probably battery life will get better...
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Questions & Answers] TheMadcapl:
Unfortunately, because of warranty concerns, I don't want to unlock BL. This breaks the warranty. Hence I dont have chance roll back.

Right now my rom is 11.0.4 and I found a problem where I am not able to use slow motion recording. Camera just stops responding.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Questions & Answers] leinadagisiaol:
Hello friend ..

I found the performance and battery problems in the global versions 12.0.3 and 12.1.1, in the same way in the custom ROM of miui.eu 12.0.3.

I understand that Xiaomi does not remove the warranty for unlocking the bootloader, but still, I think you can try updating to the version of miui 11.0.8 because it runs very smoothly for me and is the best.

Regards.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Questions & Answers] :
flash in updater by manual update? link for.11.0.8 zip pls?
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Questions & Answers] leinadagisiaol:
Por supuesto

Link: https://xiaomifirmware.com/download/15842/

Download the Zip and move it to the downloaded_rom folder.

Then go to settings, About the Phone, then update system and on the miui 11 logo, touch several times to activate the advanced installation options.

Go to the 3 points on the top right and select package to update. Select the package saved in the downloaded_rom folder.

The download link is from miui 11.0.8 global, if you need the miui EEA tell me.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Questions & Answers] TheMadcapl:
Although Xiaomi does ot care about BL, distributor in my country does. So in my case I wont unlock until warranty time is over.

[Samsung Galaxy A71 Themes, Apps, and Mods] droidzer1:
Now that there is a bootloader unlock for formerly unlockable bootloaders ( see this thread: [Android][UNSAMLOCK] Bootloader Unlock for Samsung US/Canada Devices )

and if you are rooted I found the old way of customizing the Samsung boot animation no longer applied.

However it is not difficult to have a custom boot animation and shutdown animation. You still need to use Samsung .qmg files although there may be a way to use the more generic bootanimation.zip files but I haven't tried this ( Flashable Boot animation Zip support ) You can create your own .qmg files for there are quite a few floating around XDA and elsewhere.

The big difference on the A71 and I assume Android 10 and other new models is that replacing the .qmg files in /system/media no longer works. I tried that and it made no difference - still was seeing the crappy little AT&T boot animation.

All you need to know is the files you want to use now need to go here:

for bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg : /prism/media/carriers/single/ATT/media/

for shutdown.qmg : /prism/media/carriers/single/ATT/media/video/shutdown/

I suggest renaming your original files to something like orig.bootsamsung.qmg and so on and then copy your custom .qmg files into the appropriate folders as listed above.
[Samsung Galaxy A71 Themes, Apps, and Mods] droidzer1:
You may also want to visit this thread to convert bootanimation.zip to .qmg files:

[Huawei Developers] Mayism:
The HMS Core SDK plug-in provided by Cocos SDKHub is able to hide or display the floating window by API calls, which means you don’t need to call the showToolBar or hideToolBar method.

But you can also choose to use the APIs by yourself.

Display the floating window:

sdkhub.getUserPlugin().showToolBar();

Hide the floating window:

sdkhub.getUserPlugin().hideToolBar();

Note that if the floating window is not displayed on a device running EMUI 9.1 or later during the test, just go to Settings > Apps > AppAssistant > Game Space, tap Add games to add your game, and test it again.
[Huawei Developers] Mayism:
After an app is launched, the app update function checks whether there is a later version available on AppGallery. If so, a pop-up is displayed, asking the user whether to update the app.

After you have integrated Cocos SDKHub, the function will use the SDK to check for app updates.

If your joint operations game is rejected for not integrating the app update function, check this post.

Before you integrate the app update function, you need to integrate Cocos SDKHub. (Reference: Integrating HUAWEI Game Service Based on Cocos SDKHub — Integrating Cocos SDKHub)

After that, here’s how you integrate the function:

1.Add the following code by referring to the official document:

checkUpdate:function(){
var params = {
"showUpdateDialog": "1",
"forceUpdate": "0"
}

console.log("checkAppUpdate button pressed");
sdkhub.getUserPlugin().callFuncWithParam("checkAppUpdate",params);// Call the checkAppUpdate API.
}

2. Associate the code with a specified button and select the checkUpdate method as the tap event.

3. If you see the error information informing you that the callFuncWithParam method is not found during a simulator test, just test the packaged file on a real device.

4. If the following information is displayed,

the function is integrated.

D/jswrapper: JS: checkAppUpdate pressed
I/updatesdk: UpdateSDK version is: 2.0.6.302 ,flavor: envrelease ,pkgName: com.cocos2d.xxx
D/HwConnectivityServiceEx: set 10323 wlan0 value false
I/NetworkKit_a: 27569-28056|null|com.huawei.hms.framework.network.grs.a|a|22|get url from sp is not empty.
I/DeviceUtil: UpdateSDK Get url from GRS_SDK Success!https://store1.hispace.hicloud.com/hwmarket/api/
I/StoreTask: UpdateSDK call store responsecode: 200

If the function passes the real-device test, the error displayed in the simulator test may be caused by compatibility failure.

For a mobile game that needs to be forcibly updated, pay attention to:

1. Select Force update when editing information for the new game version in AppGallery Connect.

(See step 8 in the official document)

2. Set forceUpdate in the input parameters to 1.

This way, you have successfully integrated the app update function.

Hi all,

I'm currently benchmarking (the old fashioned way) the cpu power consumption on various mobile devices including an HTC Touch Diamond. I'm trying to find out what percentage of the battery energy is consumed by the cpu (while executing different apps). I found a great tool for Symbian OS (Nokia smart phones). It's called Nokia Energy Profiler (http://www.forum.nokia.com/info/sw....-ac53-01f0c392d40f/Nokia_Energy_Profiler.html). It does all the work one could do with test probes, power supplies and other hardware.

Do you have any knowledge of any similar tool for Windows Mobile? Did you happen to read lately any articles that focus on the power consumption/battery life of HTC smart phones?

Regards,

Horia

Location: Japan

Carrier: au KDDI and/or Docomo

Phone: OnePlus 7T Pro McLaren Edition (T-Mobile unlocked)

My phone that I bought through au KDDI broke and I wanted to get a new phone anyway, but I wanted to venture into the world of unlocked phones for the first time. I know there is complications with getting phones that are unlocked and compatible with carriers with regards to CDMA/GSM, frequency bands, etc. When I checked info on frequency bands for the OnePlus 7T Pro McLaren I bought it seemed like it would work but it didn't. Still doesn't work with a new carrier who seemed even more likely to work.

Timeline:

1. Using au KDDI

2. Buy this OnePlus 7T Pro McLaren Edition (T-Mobile unlocked)

3. Put in au KDDI sim card. "Emergency Calls only/No service"

4. Manually make APN settings. Still doesn't work

5. More research looks like au KDDI is maybe CDMA, and that phone only works on GSM. Docomo is GSM and many reports of Docomo being usable with many unlocked phones.

6. Buy this prepaid sim card that apparently uses Docomo's network as a test, per advice of anonymous online user.

7. Put in prepaid sim card; works immediately without any APN shenanigans or anything.

8. Go to Docomo, sign a contract with them and get a sim card.

9. Put in new Docomo sim card, and doesn't work ("Emergency Calls only/no service") regardless of which APN settings I select or make.

I give all the links to the exact products and companies I'm using in case someone can find the compatibility issue. Is there something I can do or do I just give up and return this OnePlus 7T Pro McLaren? I'd like to maintain my contact with both companies and try different unlocked phones until I find a phone/carrier combination that works, but do you think any unlocked phone would work? Am I stuck using the phones they carry? Also why would the prepaid card on Docomo's network work but not their actual sim card?

Hello XDA community! I need help putting this Tomate S905XQ box in bootloader mode so I can flash it using USB Burning tool.

I tried everything without luck.

What I have done so far:

Plugged the USB cable in the PC, hold the visible RESET then UPDATE buttons but unfortunelly, no dice. (Do I have to plug the ac adapter)

Also tried holding the "hidden inside" UPDATE button but also without any luck.

I want to flash Aidan's Custom ROM v9 on this box (1GB/8GB).

Any help is really appreciated, including how to backup this firmware because I haven't found any version on internet.

[LG V40 Questions & Answers] Moondroid:
Greetings. I'm looking to confirm if I should go with a 405QA7 or if 405UA will do. (Or...?)

My requirements:

- Phone needs to work on VZW for now (don't need WiFi calling or anything exotic);

- Maybe on T-Mobile later. It's a serious possibility.

-

MUST

be bootloader-unlockable and/or (at least) rootable.

- Might need to downgrade one I buy from 10 to Pie (or lower), understanding ofc that ARB is always a potential issue. (I'm familiar with LG V30, assume V40 is much the same.) I always ask sellers what Android version is on a particular phone; 9 out of 10 tell me they don't know, even on unboxed/used phones.

One reason I'm asking is because I see lots of 405UAs for sale, advertised as "unlocked! will work on everything but Sprint!" or whatever. Yes or no? Not nearly as many QA7s available, especially not "New In Box".

Any clarification will be greatly appreciated. T.I.A.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] AsItLies:
I guess for me it's fun to try to figure out what makes you think, or assume what, to ask this question.

So, the QA is the us open version. It's not tied to any carrier (no chance of it being locked to a carrier then, obviously).

The UA is the version that Sprint, at&t, Vzw (maybe more) use. They would certainly have a chance of being carrier locked. But, if you buy one and it say's not carrier locked... then... what's the difference?

Well, sure, it could actually be carrier locked, but if it was advertised as not, and it is, send it back?

It gets a little more complicated when you want to use it with a specific carrier, such as vzw (or sprint or at&t etc), then, you have to check with them what phones they will allow on their network and what capabilities it will have (for instance, at&t allows other (than their) phones, but only allows their phones to have capabilities like vowifi (and I think) volte).

Assuming it's a necessity you stay with vzw (at least for awhile), and you need the additional capabilities only allowed to their specific phones (determined by imei), then get a vzw UA phone. Vzw does make their kdz available (where sprint and at&t don't - but that's only really relevant if u were on vzw, crossflashed to something else, and wanted to go back - keep in mind, just crossflashing to the kdz isn't enough for carrier extra features, it has to be their phone / imei).

But, to answer your question, QA? UA? why do u think that matters? in your situation?

cheers
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] Moondroid:
Thanks for replying. First I want to reduce as much as possible the risk of having to send a phone back. As for ads, I see varying info especially for the UA, and I also know that quite a few sellers don't really know what they're selling. I've had my share of "wtf" transactions especially with phone buys, and I'm really tired of wasting time that way. The more I know about a particular model/variant up front, the better.

I simply don't want a branded phone, especially one filled with VZW (or any other) junk. Had my fill of those too. (I would not do custom ROM on this phone, so need relatively clean stock firmware.) I have tons of APN info for VZW and T-Mobile, can mod settings as I might need to... as long as the bands/etc are there. One thing I know from my V30 is that even crossflashing firmware is a relatively safe and sometimes even advisable thing to do. Like my carrier-unlocked US998 was actually born as a Sprint LS998 (or at least that's how it shows on imei-checker websites), but as it is, that means pretty much nothing to me.

There was one other question I probably should've included -- which variants have Android 10 OTAs out there, or not. If not for a particular variant (or brand), then I wouldn't have to worry about downgrading that variant.

Especially thanks for confirming that the QA is in fact the US wide-open version. Honestly, it seems to be getting harder and harder to find just simple statements of detail on various points, and even reading through XDA any more (I'm sorry to say) often has me turning in circles for hours and even days at a time, looking for simple, clearly and fully stated facts. But there are still (of course) a number of very expert (and willing) folks to assist and guide the rest us not-so-expert users (and players, and experimenters) in crunch times. XDA is still gold on that score. I've unlocked/rooted/ROM'd a big handful of phones and couldn't have done any of it, wouldn't have even known possibilties, without XDA.

Way too wordy I'm sure. I'll shut up now.

Cheers mate.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] AsItLies:
oh no, that's fine, it helps to be able to answer the questions. It *sounds* like yer not really tied to any carrier, but trying to avoid hassle / bad experiences.

I'd suggest this, go with a UA version and crossflash it to one of the 'open' variants. The US Open kdz is only 9, but 10 will hopefully come out. I personally have an at&t ua crossflashed to Korean Open 10 (30e). But after copying over my OP partition (from US Open 9), it now behaves much like us open 10. It's of course bootloader unlocked and magisk, etc.

My mvno is mint mobile, and that allows for, with slight mods to the device, volte and vowifi.

Also, swappa is a good place to look for a device. Many sellers (volume, not individual) have them new or even better, open box. And their guarantee they are unlocked can't be beat. They have a reputation and the ability to sell on swappa to protect.

I still have a v30 with us998 on it :) doesn't get any use anymore though...

cheers
