[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] kuba319:
I have read many topics about comparisons 8gb to 12gb e.g. oneplus 8 pro etc. It turned out that 8gb is perfectly fine if you are not using 15 applications at once. Do you think that for the SD 888 and three powerful cameras it will still be sufficient?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] babyboy3265:
The 6gb on my s9+ was more than enough for anything 2 weeks ago.

So realistically 8gb will also be more than enough. But if the price difference between 8 amd 12 isn't big, just go for the 12gb so that u can fullfill the placebo effect of a faster phone 😅
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] jericho246:
A few weeks ago I was still using the Pixel4a with its 6 Gigs of RAM and the so called "weakling" SD 730G chipset. It was enough for me...

8 GB is more than enough IMO. Anything more than 8 GB RAM on a phone, is a gimmick! For the casual user of course. Although not really sure what you'd have to be doing on your damn phone in order to fully utilize like 12GB of RAM hahaha.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] saisannihith:
8GB is more than enough. If you are a social butterfly and you use fb, instagram, whatsapp, snapchat, tiktok in parallel it will only consume less than 6GB. If you play any game it will still be less than 7GB
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] blackhawk:
The newer ram is about 20% more efficient. No such thing as too much.

My Note 10+ is running on 12 gb of the older generation ram with good battery life.

That said you can see what my current ram usage is right now with 7 gb free. With ram intensive apps that can change. That Android doesn't have to off load much or anything means less cpu cycles wasted and a snappier response.
[Touch Cruise General] whitealien:
topic says everything.

Just want to know how to map buttons.

cheers
[Touch Cruise General] d.cortez:
why not use the Buttons app to remap the buttons? Start->Settings->Buttons.
[Touch Cruise General] whitealien:
It is very limited, only 4 buttons. You can not remap with it roller buttons - up, down, left, right and middle.
[Touch Cruise General] gerald_s:
You can use Vito ButtonMapper

http://vitotechnology.com/products/buttonmapper.html

or

AE Button+

http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php

Sorry, I saw to late that you want to map the buttons through registry. I will dig into the registry to find the keys
[Touch Cruise General] lawrence750:
I've got an XDA Ignito (Touch Diamond), and it only shows one button (voice speed dial) in the buttons app.

When looking in the registry there is only the key: 40C6, which is the Voice Speed dial, but no other keys.

Is it possible to add a key, and map it to a hardware button, maybe the ones above the phone keys, without using other software like AE Button +?

I have already tried with the keys 40C1-10 and it doesn't seem to make any difference. :(

Any ideas?

Thanks for any replies!

Edit: sorry I just noticed this is in the Polaris forum (was searching for mapping buttons and didnt notice!)
[Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers] funshy:
Hi, I have a problem because before last software update I was using my P30 Pro in this bike holder

Spoiler content hidden.

and it was working fine when I turned off "touch disable mode", with enabled it was detecting TPU and screen was locked but with disabled I had no problem with unlocking by double click and see AOD. After last update I can't use phone in this holder because no matter if "touch disable mode" is enabled or disabled it's always locking screen and turning off AOD when something is close. The only difference between enabled and disabled is message after unlocking by button "to not cover upper display". It's uncomfortable to unlock phone in this case using button. Do you know what I can do? It's happening on both of my P30 Pro which are on EMUI 11.
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra Questions & Answers] Rovyo:
Hello,

I'm seeking for your help guys. Let met explain : each time my Mi10 ultra lost data connection (in the underground or parking or whatever) it cant get back 4g/5g until i restart the phone.

Turning data on/off doesn't help.

Turning airplane mode on/off doesn't help.

Only restart gives the phone data again.

Can any one help fix this ? Otherwise any app/workaround to get back data without restarting the phone.

Thanks a lot

[OnePlus 9 Pro] arsenal74:
Title says it all really, I just unboxed my 9 Pro and the pre-fitted protector feels really thick and makes swiping feel like it is through treacle.

Anybody else?
[OnePlus 9 Pro] ddizzy81:
The complaints with this phone just keep growing
[OnePlus 9 Pro] arsenal74:
Not really a complaint as I will just remove it, was just curious.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] ddizzy81:
Oh no man not saying you're complaining...it's just seeming like oneplus rushed this release a bit
[OnePlus 9 Pro] terlynn4:
If I decide to keep the phone, I'm removing the factory installed screen protector. I agree, swiping isn't great, and it seems to sometimes interfere with fingerprint detection and get me locked out of apps.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] dmarden:
Factory installed protector feels fine to me and I appreciate having it on there while available accessories fill and round out a bit.

I really have no complaints about the device. The single issue I have is that it wants me to install the latest update again, but it can't... so I just hid that notification for now.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] arsenal74:
I usually leave the factory fit protectors on but this one feels like it dulls the touch response a little, either that or it's fine and there is afault on the phone itself (doubtful)

Like the phone mostly so far, only negative is they removed DC dimming, when did that happen?
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Pvt WhoOkid:
Feels the same as oneplus 8 pro, but I hated that factory one. It peeled quick on the edges. My oneplus 7 pro never peeled. Overall this phone seems to work just fine. People will always complain. Don't like it? return it! You have options, it's a competitive market.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] chetly968:
If this is similar to the oneplus 8 pro, I kinda preferred it. It wasn't as bad as that atrocious z gold 2 screen protector and it is way more scratch resistant than other pre-installed ones. I haven't checked it out yet. Still waiting for my case before I take it out of the box, lol.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] 2015Ducatimulti:
Every oneplus I have had that came with the factory protector just sucks, its not slippery to allow your finger to glide across the screen, so I always remove it and use it as is.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] AbandonedTrolley:
Yep took mine off, with the smoothness and also the rather sharp edges catching all the time with edge swipes it was annoying. Bought the Spigen NeoFlex TPU protectors and they are junk too, edges don't stick down so will come off or get dirty quickly. (Sending them back)
[OnePlus 9 Pro] arsenal74:
Is the swiping and touch response better with it removed?
[OnePlus 9 Pro] AbandonedTrolley:
Yes it's as good as any other phone now, screen is nice and smooth with no mistouches or bad responses.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Burt Squirtz:
T-minus hours or days until the mysterious scratches start to appear...
[OnePlus 9 Pro] clairelara:
The stock screen protector was thick and peeling off for me, so I switched to Gadgetshieldz screen protector which I've been using for 3 months and I like it. Since It's a very thin film screen protector, so I can't feel it on my display and it gives good protection against scratches.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] AndyC76:
It maybe down to the individual and which batch your phone is from, I've still got the factory screen film on the phone and using it with a ringke fusion case. I'm glad I kept the screen protector on as it's had a few scratches, some are quite deep from where I've put the phone in a pocket with keys! I now make sure I avoid doing that.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] pyry666:
I dont agree with this. My first oneplus was 3 and it took some time to even realise that there was screen protector at all. And if you can look past that op is very lazy releasing sources its not a bad device at all. My op8p had terrble display and changed it was it like 3 times..
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Samuel Holland:
The whitestone dome feels like the original screen and is very nice if you can install it without any bubbles showing. I recommend installing it by hand without the little frame it comes with.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] netgar:
I can only agree with your statement.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] m3rmart:
I'm having the exact same setup xD Factory film and ringke fusion case is a sleek combo. Although the factory screen film is peeling off already it's protecting from scratches, thats what I need, as the case is covering the rest! Amazing setup bro!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] petard:
Is the keyboard on the Touch Pro similar to the Kaiser's keyboard or is it more similar to the 8525?

The 8525 had a nice, tactile keyboard and you could feel the keys clicking very well. My Kaiser has very soft keys and you can barely feel the click, and some of them have become so bad that I have to push pretty hard for it to register.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] 12aon:
Raphael Keyboard

I don't know about the 8525 But I do still own a kaiser, and the keyboards are very similar, tough the raphaels requires a bit more pressure.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] NLS:
I love Pro's keyboard. Nice "almost real" keyboard feel, I make the same (small) ratio of mistakes as with my desktop keyboard.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] petard:
MORE pressure? My god, they are making it almost useless to have a physical board!
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] YechiamTK:
I'm rocking my op3t with RR for about 3 years now with relatively the same setup - RR 7.1.2 rom (haven't touched twrp in about 2 years).

My phone sometimes gets stuck in camera apps then I do a quick reboot and it's all fine.

Earlier today I encountered the same issue, restarted and now I can't access qs tiles (I can't scroll the notif bar beyond the top row) and (perhaps more importantly) - no notifications are showing (although I see that there are on my home launcher).

Moreover, my recents and home buttons don't seem to function. The buttons themselves work (i.e. they light up and double tap functionality on my home button to screen off works just fine), just these functions don't work.

I tried to tweak in the settings - *specifically* the notification panel, home and recents functions doesn't work.

I'm reaching out for help before flashing the ROM again (I do not want to handle any more tweaks on this phone so I would rather a more simple fix).

Tried rebooting several times, haven't solved the issue.

I'm not sure what exactly is at fault here and I have no clue as to how to further investigate (beyond reflashing).

Any help would be much appreciated.

Edit: to be clear, the notifications don't show up to the point where they don't even show up in the lock screen.
[General Questions and Answers] DarkingDooM:
Hey,

In the latest Wi-Fi encryption standard WPA3(SAE) there is an option for "Password Identifiers" [search for "sae_password_id" in LINK] which is a label that indicates to the AP which password is being used, the required code do exist in the WPA Supplicant in the android tree [Android source code] but the issue that I can't see any option to enter this value when I am connecting to a network with WPA3 enabled using the Wi-Fi Manager[Based on Android 11 on Galaxy Tab s7 tablet].

So my question is where I can find the required field that can be used to fill this value in the Wi-Fi manager ?

[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] plepew:
Hey Guys,

Need a some expert advice please.

Long story short. I need to replace my OP 6T McLaren's battery as I have serious degradation in battery capacity (73% Serious Loss), meaning the battery is no longer charging to 3700mAh, max charging atm is around 2600mAh, which it drains very quickly. FYI Anything above 80% is the limit for average performance, >90% is best. You can use the OP Diagnostic App 1.0.0.9 to determine your own status. Does not work on all OP devices above 6 btw. Maybe other versions work. Anyway, will be getting OP to change the battery (no real local guys I can trust tbh, all Sammy & Apple guys...) and they want me to Factory Reset the device (complete wipe including internal storage (backed up already to PC)) before sending the device to the OP Repair Center for the obvious reasons of Privacy & Security.

On my device, I have a suite of apps that are no longer available to install with APK specially Signed, but won't be able to re-install (long story & can discuss in a PM more if there is an interest to help on this). These APK will not work any other way, I've tried! This being said, I know that TWRP Nandroids work well & have been doing these backups for yrs and have restored backups with these apps installed and it works!

But I have not had to restore any as of late and TWRP Backup has somewhat changed in regards to the partition selections available. See TWRP Options pic below.

When OP returns the device to me, it will mostly likely be on the latest release of 10.3.11 (Hopefully).

Here is the current setup and runs perfectly!

OOS 10.3.11

TWRP: twrp-3.5.2_9-0-fajita

Magisk 23

The last Nandroid done today (No PW for good measure, but secured locally offline), I selected all partitions. Is this the best way to insure I get my full device backup restored?

View attachment 5319753

I'm guessing that I will have to, Unlock the Bootloader, reinstall TWRP same version the Nandroid was created with in order to restore that backup.

Looking forward to hearing from you guys to make the best decision before proceed with the factory reset.

Thanking you all in advance for your time & assistance!

Cheers!

[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Extreme_Ninja2099:
Idk if u have read Mauronofrio's XDA thread on TWRP backups. BUT NEVER BACKUP OR RESTORE SYSTEM OR VENDOR! From my guide, you don't need to backup vendor.img or system.img or anything else that's not Boot or Data FOR OOS. Make sure you have everything like a copy of everything folder/file in your internal storage before u wipe it.

BUT because you're going to wipe your device. U should have a copy of everything in case but don't backup system or vendor as they're useless and will crash your system if u restore those!

After you've got your device from repair, follow my method to restore OOS TWRP backup on your device and YOU'LL only NEED TO RESTORE BOOT + DATA. Once you have booted back to your system, everything should be there like you never left, but transfer your internal storage stuff as some apps store files in your internal storage. Once that is done, that should be it and it would be like you've never left :)

If the TWRP backup restore doesn't work let me know, but from my experience with going back to OOS via my TWRP backup I only backed up and restored boot + data for OOS. Custom ROMs are different but isn't the case for you
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] plepew:
Wow, thanks for the quick reply!

I have not read Mauronofrio thread and will do!

I completely missed the system & vendor piece in your instructions....my bad! 😔

So just to confirm, my backup that I have done with all checked off is good, but only restore Boot & Data with an exact duplicate of the current Internal Storage...right?

Going forward, when creating the Backup, just select Boot & Data and I'm good to go? Or select all Except: System Image(only) & Vendor options (both)?

Also, just so I can understand a bit better, "System" is the actual OOS? Meaning, if I restore Boot & Data on any OOS, all my apps and data will be as I never left, or we should always restore on the OOS that was current at the moment of the Backup (which I have always done in the past).

PS. I may just do the backup again, just to make sure SYSTEM & VENDOR are not there for good measure! 😝
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Extreme_Ninja2099:
First off, I already posted everything you need in my last comment and that's what I usually do. Everything should be there and not like you need to pay or reply to get the extra stuff that you may need. No point in replying asking for more as I'll just be repeating myself over and over.

Just choose boot & data for TWRP backups for OOS specifically going forward and after you got your device from repair. System, vendor doesn't work in my experience and will crash your system. Only backup the .img variant which was stated by the dev (Mauronofrio) for TWRP for OP6/6T devices. Only backup system.img and vendor.img if u need to backup system+vendor, but YOU don't have to for OOS and I said this previously.

JUST DO A BACKUP OF EVERYTHING OTHER THAN SYSTEM AND VENDOR. YOU SHOULD ONLY BACKUP SYSTEM.IMG AND VENDOR.IMG NEVER SYSTEM OR VENDOR.

They never work and will increase the size of your backup and will take even longer to transfer to your storage device from your phone.

YES, to your new question. You should update/ be on the same OOS version as your TWRP backup before u restore data + boot. Restore OOS via fastboot or msm and update to get to the same version of OOS as your TWRP backup. YOU should only do this if your phone is in the wrong version of OOS as your backup after you've got it back from REPAIR.

ALWAYS BE ON THE SAME VERSION OF OOS AS YOUR TWRP BACKUP BEFORE YOU RESTORE YOUR TWRP BACKUP OF OOS!

Maybe take a copy of your wifi passwords, take a google backup in settings, take a copy of sms/call logs and contacts. Other stuff that you may not have stored just in case the TWRP backup fails, but it shouldn't. Good luck

This should be it and there isn't anything else that you'll need

Hey guys, for some reason I ended up on "Unmodified System Partitions", must have tapped the screen a few times in error while handling the phone I guess.

What should I do?

Unable to go back to TWRP main menu without selecting an option.

I am rooted, on stock OOS and not doing customs ROM at this time...

What should I do?

Select "Keep Read Only"? or Swipe to "Allow Modifications"?

[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Extreme_Ninja2099:
Swipe to allow modifications. But it seems that your internal storage corrupted. Not sure what you did and how you got into this situation.

After you swiped to allow modifications... If the internal storage files are a messed up, try to switch slots and reboot recovery
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] plepew:
I swiped and yeah, the IS was messed up in File Managfer(TWRP).

Selected Reboot then Selected the Slot I remembered I was on : "A"

Rebooted & Boom all good!

[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] jas84701:
Sorry, I'm a total noob, hopefully this is an easy question to answer. Is there any way that I can tell what version of OOS my TWRP Backup contains? I can't remember what version my phone was running when I did the TWRP backup and don't want to mess it up after I restore the phone from MSM. Thanks in advance for your help!
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Extreme_Ninja2099:
Well u posted this twice which isn't necessary and people will try and reply. But I'm not sure if there is a way to know and as long as u copied the whole TWRP folder for that backup, u should be fine restoring it with a newer version of TWRP. If it really matters to you, then maybe try and find the latest TWRP on the date you did the backup? I think just using a newer TWRP version should be fine
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Waynenolan92:
Should I use the same Gapps package I flashed during clean installing when updating custom rom?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Extreme_Ninja2099:
U don't have to use the same gapps package. Using a updated one would be better. But, u only have to for ROMs that don't include gapps (vanilla builds) AND the Restore script doesn't show up during installation. Opengapps doesn't have that script but nikgapps does. Using dirty flash/updating a ROM should show the restore script and if it doesn't then just reboot to recovery and flash the updated or same gapps package. This can also be the same for updating the base/vendor (use method 3 in that section of the guide). I hope this helps
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Waynenolan92:
Thanks for your replay)))it's my first using vanilla rom(without Gapps), so I flashed nikigapps Omni package, and my question is: should I always use the same package, or I can go with core package for example?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Extreme_Ninja2099:
U can... But it doesn't really matter as a updated package works fine and u only need to use it if the nikgapps restore script doesn't show up when updating the ROM or vendor/base (OOS underneath)
