I'd check the optical signal remains when the headlights are on. That will confirm it is nothing downstream of that.

I'd also be checking the voltage drop at the car battery when the lights are turned on. That will give an indication about the *possibility* of the head unit or a specific component of the HU going into a safety mode due to low juice.

Does the same thing happen when just the parking lights rather than the full headlights go on?

Report back on voltage and draw at the car battery if you can and go from there.
[Android Head-Units] dape16:
Thank you for your input.

I have checked the voltage drop when turning on the headlights, and it's just about 0,1 - 0, 2 V.

Just turning on the parking lights does not kill the sound.

When I start the car I have a much bigger drop, and it doesn't affect the sound, as long as the head lights are turned off.

Since I can hear the sound with really low volume when mute is on, I guess that means that the fiber optic converter works.
[Android Head-Units] ludditefornow:
You mentioned in your original post that you still had some sound on mute.. agreed with you - wine last night confused me.

You don't say was the voltage actually drops to, just the amount it drops by. But if the car starts, you may assume that it is not charge.

I'm guessing the wrong car is chosen via software for the Canbus. Maybe you can offer more details. That sort of info is free and can help others.

Actual voltage

Car type, model and year

Current canbus car choice in setup

Anything else non standard

Any non standard connections to the wiring looms.
[Android Head-Units] dape16:
Thanks for your suggestions!

I have done some more troubleshooting and now I am thinking that it's more likely to be some kind of grounding issue (or a bad mainboard) than a canbus problem. Because sometimes when I plug in an USB drive or an USB cable (not connected to anything) there is a "bang" and the sound dies, as it does when turning on the head lights.

I made a new grounding wire and mounted it directly to a ground point in the car chassis, instead of using the one from the OEM cable harness., but no difference. Car on or off does not matter and I also tried with an power supply connected to the car battery.

Should I try to ground the head unit better and where to put the wire then? Would the head unit chassis be enough or is it necessary to open it up and connect it somewhere on the mainboard?
[Android Head-Units] ludditefornow:
I'd be disconnecting as much as possible and just feeding a power ground and an ACC feed.

Hook up speakers only and see what the result is.

Add one component at a time and test again. Might be easier to check initially out of the car and using a constant 12v power source or even an old PC ATX PSU. They have 12v and 5v rails.

I don't think adding more ground will change much.
[Android Head-Units] dape16:
I tried this yesterday, but with the head unit still in the car. Disconnected everything but the fiber optics converter and power. I had no problems when turning on the head lights, I tried many times. Sound did not die. Still some weird sounds when using USB drive though.

I made an extra wire from the ground wire and mounted it at one of the screws at the back of the head unit. I connected everything back except the FM antenna connector. I suspected it could be interfering because the amplified OEM FM antenna is connected to a control unit in the car which is also managing car lights.

After this I had no problems at all for the rest of the evening. Tried turning on the head lights when driving and with the engine off. Plugged in USB drive and USB cable. Sound dit not die and no noise when using USB.

Today the problem with dying sound when turning on head lights was back.

My feeling is that this issue is much more likely to happen when the head unit (and the car) is cold. If the car has been driven so the temperature inside is around 20 degrees for a period of time, or if it has been standing in the sun so the interior is warm, it is very rare that turning on the head lights affects the sound.

[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] galo.pl:
Hey! So i got a Huawei P8 (on the phone was GRA-L09 on the back) phone from my family in another country. All was okey, all was working fast and the notification slide was working until i wanted to install some apps from my country (sweden) - i could not install local apps (f.ex. bank app). I downloaded update firmware (didn't make a backup - typicall me), run it...

Finally i could install all local apps i needed but i couldn't slide the upper notification bar... after a long tests and meny downloaded updates ..it looks like notification slide works sometimes, but most of the time it does not. To make the notification slide work i need to flip screen to the side and from the side it works fine.

Conclusion - i turned on the touch dot that i could see where i touch - i got shifted touch screen a few milimeters down, so the touch doesn't even come that much up on the screen (even if my screen works perfectly).

Is there a way to move the touch back up?

Phone Huawei P8 GRA-L09

HARDWARE: GRACE_UL_VN1

Bootloader: GRA-6_0-2016_0513_0300_FASTBOOT

Kernel V: GRA-C900B390_BOOT

What can i do to shift it back or just make it work? Can't find any firmware or anything else regarding the phone.

On the photo this is how high i can get, but it stops under the bar...

Best Regards,

P.

PS. The second picture is when it is stuck and at that point it works fine. Then it stops working again...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Litov:
in order to enable SPB smart scroll on my tilt WM6 (and disable touchflo) i have been following instructions to change a few registry settings. while most are easy i cannot figure out one of the steps:

2) Change HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\TOUCH\Driver Name to "PocketPlusTouch.dll"

i dont seem to have any "driver name" under the "touch" folder...

where do i find this?

btw- looking around i did notice a "driver name" under the "KEYBD" folder but i am guessing that isnt it.

under "touch" i have (Default), "Calibration Data" and "MaxCalError".

as to the "pocketPlusTouch.dll" file itself everything is allright i have the file and understand the steps, i just need help finding the aforementioned "driver name"

thank you.

the step is taken from here:

Try creating a new entry inside that key (not Dword, not binary. Text chain would be, wouldn´t it?). Must look somehow like this:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\TOUCH]

"drivername"="pocketplus touch.dll"

(You need a registry editor. Resco is the best. But even the one included in pocket commander will do)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Litov:
reg edit help

first off thanks for the speedy reply.

i understand from what you wrote that i need to create a new value in the touch folder (as oppose to a new key)?

when i try to create a new value it asks for the "type"...

i have no "text chain" in the drop down menu, only dword, reg_sz,reg_binary, and others.... what type do i put?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pppppp:

Good evening guys.

On android the preview of the mail on the lockscreen displays only two lines. The sender and the title of the mail. And with gmail app this also applies with outlook etc.

Is there a way for the mail app to preview the first lines of the text contained in the mail?

Basically I mean what iphone does on the lockscreen.

I have tried restarting my computer(linux) and running ./studio.sh but it is still not loading.

[General Questions and Answers] indestructible master:
first, glad to see you use programming on linux, i encourage you continue using it and learn it :)

that "WARN", is normal when starting studio from command line.

check in ~/HOME/AndroidStudioProjects directory, (if you allowed android studio to install location for projects in ~/HOME/AndroidStudioProjects, and in ~/HOME directory check if you have "Android" directory, there is located Sdk tools.

check permissions for directories, just check this website , cd (open directory, terminal command) to ~/HOME/AndroidStudioProjects;

~/HOME/AndroidStudioProjects

, and check permissions via

ls -l

, or

cd AndroidStudioProjects

to get deeper into, to list project directories you have, and check their permissions, they need to have write, and read permissions for owner at least

And replace ~/HOME, with your name you use in linux, if command don't work, so not to get confused there

My main problem with WMP is even though I edit the song/video name, it still syncs over the original file name. If I change the original file name for WMP then I have to rename it for iTunes cause when I go back to iTunes to play the song/video, it says the file is missing. It's a pain!!!

Is there another option so that I don't have to mess with WMP?

[General Questions and Answers] IODroids:
Last year got OTA update for 11.0.2.0 and since then mobile was lagging, replacing my broken display last month, mobile started lagging and huuge battery drain.

So decided to try PixelExperience Custom Rom.. Custom ROm is way too smooth and very less laggy,

Installation went smooth but was missing some important features available on stock rom.

1. Cannot block calls from unknown numbers (prefer to only accept calls from contacts list, due to nature of work). (important).

2. I have 2 sim card Jio and VI, only use VI for receiving banking related SMS verifications, (on stock rom it was possible to disable VI and actively use another which is JIO), On custom rom i have to physically remove the VI card no option to disable same.. (important)

3. And some small things, which can be ignored..

Problem 1: I am unable to install stock ROM via recovery and as well fastboot.

I have an unlocked bootloader.

While trying from TWRP recovery: (trying this miui_HMNote4XGlobal_V11.0.2.0.NCFMIXM_83170d3e3a_7.0.zip)

Getting following error:

unmount of firmware failed: no such volumemount: failed to mount /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/sec at /firmware: Invalid argument and then completes.

After rebooting, gets stuck on MI logo + unlocked bootloader screen.

Tried 10+ times (worked only once) then again tried after custom rom but now failing, unsure how it worked properly just once.

While trying via fastboot using MiFlashTool (trying this mido_global_images_V11.0.2.0.NCFMIXM_20191107.0000.00_7.0_global_91ed4d2a3f.tgz)

This process was working fine, until i clicked once on lock and flash option out of 3 options available at bottom. Now it wont work.

Getting following error:

Mi Flash Error error:Not catch checkpoint (\$fastboot -s .* lock),flash is not done

On removing \$fastboot -s .* lock from

Configuration Menu => Mi Flash Configuration => Checkpoint.

I get a success screen within 1 second and its stuck on fastboot screen..

Problem 2: Wifi Address 02:00:00:00:00:00 appears disabled. (disconnects) after installing Custom Rom.

Wifi Mac Address appears 02:00:00:00:00:00, while trying to connect to WiFi it automatically turns off after 2-3 seconds on stock rom now

I tried 2 custom roms, and wifi is running fine on those 2 ROMs, so its not a hardware issue.

What is the best possible way to get MAC address back ?

If I am able to install STOCK rom, I can root the device and fix wifi mac address with some play store tools, but unable to install stock rom.

Please guide and help, no replies from XDA, as most might have moved to new mobiles.

Can installing STOCK ROM can be issue becuase of PC issues too ?

Will try another PC tomorrow.
[General Topics] Deleted member 11506897:
So, Fire tablet are kind of trash (except for the price). FireFixer will pretty much do everything Fire Toolbox does, except you just press one button (the only button, actually) to completely fix most problem people have with Fire tablets. It removes ads from the lockscreen (optional, can potentially cause legal issues with Amazon), delete Amazon bloatware, install Google Play and Google Play Services, and install a few custom apps made specifically for FireFixer.

I want to make a few things clear and answer a few questions you might have:

1. It will be free and open source

2. The goal is to make it as easy as possible to use. Not everyone who has a problem with their Fire tablet knows what to do or even what to search. The goal is to make an app that can be installed and completely set up out of the box. No extra installations, nothing. The user should be able to launch the app, plug in their Fire tablet, and click the start button. Of course they will need to turn on developer options and ADB debugging, so instructions on how to do so will be in the app.

3. Help is wanted! There's a lot I want this to do, and I can't make it all on my own. The FireFixer app (the desktop app which makes all the changes to the device) will be written in C# and will use Windows Forms for the UI. The custom made (mobile) apps that come with FireFixer will be written in Java and possibly Kotlin. If you know C# (F# and VB.NET could be useful too) or Java/Kotlin, and want to help, then go to the GitHub repo and start contributing (I'm assuming you know how to use GitHub).

I can't wait to start working on this, I'll post here and possibly make another thread when it's done.

Got a 781u1 ...would updating ota make rooting potentially harder if a rom were to come out?

how about if I gain root THEN update? would it undo root?
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] 3mel:
first thing is to check is whether you can unlock your bootloader, up until now the subject of rooting is moot if you can't, unless you get it unlocked as a paid service.

I'm not sure if updates will come while rooted, they won't if you flash TWRP. assuming they did come the boot.img most likely would be flashed on a major update breaking root.

you'd just have to extract and patch the boot.img again from a downloaded copy of the update and then flash that via Odin.

The main camera in our phones might be more limited than you thought. If you use features like super slow motion and super steady, you are actually using the ultrawide camera, not the main camera. Seriously, test it out.
