Sorry about the possibly confusing title, but I couldn't think how to describe the problem! When trying to download an app, as part of the registration process it very often sends a once-only code to the phone. This code then has to be entered into the app. The problem to which I'm looking for an answer is - how do you get back to the home screen to check you messages without losing the original app and all the information you've already entered? I've tried this a few times, and every time I go back to the app (after accessing my messages) I have to start the registration procedure again, by which time the original once-only code is no longer valid! I really hope all this makes sense and I'll be very grateful for any help anyone can give.

Hi,

I've read before how those these aliases(i.e. :WMPLAYER, MSSOLITAIRE, etc) were discussed. I was wondering if the said aliases can be used/invoke programmatically? If yes, then how, what is the syntax? TIA. Btw, I could run it via sktools...

[General Questions and Answers] cjsegninir:
Hello everyone,

I know it has been mentioned in device-specific posts, but I wanted to address this from a wider perspective.

I own a Redmi K40 Gaming phone, for which there are no global ROMs available yet (Hopefully there will be with the Poco re-branding), which comes with MIUI 12.5 out of the box. As you would know, it doesn't support GMS, sames as with other models like Redmi K30 Ultra, Redmi 10X and basically any other MTK high end devices (As announced by Xiaomi).

Personally, I'm OK with surviving without Google. Providing that: 1) I can get the apps I need 2) said apps work "normally".

For point 1) we can always get apps from other sources: Aptoide, APKpure, FDroid, or even here in XDA! You may not find all, and some may depend on GMS themselves, but it is possible.

The problem I have encountered is with #2. Some of said apps doesn't work the same when installed from third-party repositories. And that is what gives me more troubles

One problem is that when I install an app from any other source, the notifications never work properly. I have Facebook open, all permissions are given, I get a notification in another device but it doesnt come here. Same happens with Whatsapp.

Another issue is that some apps, despite installing properly, just don't work. I have tried a few games (Marvel Strike Force, Injustice 2, Real Racer 3) all of them give one or another problem

So, the idea of this thread (If you help me please), is for users without GMS to share what workarounds they have used to survive the Google vs Chinese phones war.

For example, where do you get the apps? What apps sustitutions you have enjoyed? What things you had to do to get the apps to work properly? and so on...

Thanks all for your help!

Cheers

Thanks @jwoegerbauer I had heard about this project, but never really digged into it.

Question about this "signature spoofing". Does it work with MIUI?

There are still no custom roms for mine, so I can't move to one of the recommended ones.

[General Questions and Answers] cjsegninir:
So far I've been installing most, if not all, apps through Aurora store. Almost all work properly, but MIUI (Especially in its Chinese version) is a !@#$#@$ with notifications and killing apps in the background.

I think the hardest part is the crazy amount of apps that depend directly of GMS...

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coloneyescolon:
I wanted to learn about some best practices about working on more than one Custom ROM (for the same device), I already have a working LineageOS build environment for my device (kebab).

I want to get to see how building an other ROM differs from the LineageOS building process, if a ROM has any sketchy Google requirements I don't like, and how functional a ROM is when building it with the device trees and kernel sources provided by LineageOS. Don't worry, I don't want to create buggy binaries of 10 different ROMS, post them on XDA and abandon them after two days. I just want to get more experience and try to build other ROM's myself, and to see what modification are required for a ROM port.

Is it possible copying some source code from my working LineageOS building environment so that repo doesn't have to re-download everything?

Is it okay to use the same ccache for both ROM's, so that I don't to re-compile binaries these both ROM's share? (As of my understanding, ccache keeps my build times lower when re-building a ROM, is that right?)

Any other tips about managing multiple building environments are appreciated! Thanks!

Actually, I hate bloatware, and I want to root my C21 to get rid of them all!
[Realme C21] smiley.raver:
At this stage until realme releases the deep testing app it's hard to do

I am looking into a way and will let you know if I manage to do it
[Realme C21] tubabuyukustun:

[Realme C21] MrMiyamo:
Because there is no custom rom.

Check out this article - https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sou...cQFnoECB0QAQ&usg=AOvVaw1QCS6X9_tXOVed4fNKdHil
[Realme C21] STJ ANONYMOUS !:
Maybe It can help!?
[Realme C21] MrMiyamo:
It's a clickbait article.

Infact we cant even boot into fastboot mode without unlocking bootloader, and there is no "depth test" app for realme C21
[Realme C21] STJ ANONYMOUS !:
You ca

You can boot into fastboot mode of C21 by executing this command through PC or a laptop.

1)Download Adb and fastboot drivers. (Skip if done)

2)Go to your device and enable usb debugging.

Then do this-

Connect your phone to your computer using a USB cable.

Open CMD/Powershell on your computer.

Run the following command to make sure the computer recognizes your Realme C21:adb devices

Now you have two choices again:

If you want to boot your Realme C21 into Fastboot Mode, use the following command: adb reboot bootloader

If you want to boot your Realme C21 into Recovery Mode, use the following command: adb reboot recovery

Once you run the following commands, your Realme C21 will turn off and go into Fastboot/Recovery Mode. That is all you have to do. Now you can flash factory images, custom ROMs, unlock the bootloader, and much more.

Hey, just give it a try! Maybe it works!?
[Realme C21] MrMiyamo:
I don't know what you are striving for.

If I hadn't tried it, I wouldn't have said it wouldn't happen like this.

Finally, my device's bootloader is already unlocked by me and I've been using it as rooted for a month already.
[Realme C21] STJ ANONYMOUS !:
Well nice then!
[Realme C21] Nadavi:
How did you root it than?

What recovery did you used?

What bootloader?
[Realme C21] MrMiyamo:
No recovery needed.

For more info, check older mesages on other threads.
[Realme C21] Nadavi:
This method doesn't work on the C21Y, for some reason I couldn't get the "mtkutil" to recognize the device in any mode.

How did you do it?
[Realme C21] MrMiyamo:
Unplug USB cable, hold all 3 keys at the same time

While holding keys, plug usb cable when your device screen off.

Keep holding keys untill mtkclient detect your device.

Tip: Use a linux distro if mtkclient cant detect your device on windows.

Edit: Unfortunately, Realme C21Y not has same SOC as C21,

It has a Unisoc processor, mtkclient works with mediatek chipsets only.
[Realme C21] MrMiyamo:
@Nadavi
[Realme C21] smiley.raver:
as MrMiyamo has stated is correct - the only way to get access to the bootloader is to either use mtkclient (unofficial tool) which is not 100% or wait for realme to release and indepth test apk.

there are a few other work arounds, but requires to have at least a root device to be able to change the phone model and to trick and indepth test apk to install and request permissions to unlock bootloader via indepth apk

and i have tried the method mentioned above by

STJ ANONYMOUS !​

, and i can gaurantee that it will not work.
[Realme C21] Zartazor:
Sorry I thought it was real and I was setting up my devices and my pc to flash that recovery

It's my mistake that i didn't test before posting

I'm really sorry
[Realme C21] MrMiyamo:
We actually have work in progress recovery.

Is this for RUI2?

我的是港货，输入SN是提示不正确，可能地区不对！

1.一般是先打开

2.选择Support,然后选择Software Download选择ROMUpgrade类型的再输入S/N即可（有的则不需要输入SN）

像下面这个就不要输入SN:

We are very excited to announce the release of Paranoid Android Ruby, based on Android 11.

On the first launch, you’ll notice a clean setup with a beautiful wallpaper from Hampus Olsson, who teamed up with us again to create several beautiful pieces of artwork. Hampus is a multi-disciplinary artist whose design stands for itself and we’re glad to have him onboard. We also added further UI touches that we believe enhance the overall user experience. You can find all of the Paranoid Android wallpapers and many more in the Abstruct app, included in our builds.

Our builds are based on the Code Aurora Forum Android base, which is optimized for Qualcomm platforms and has a higher degree of performance, battery life, and functionality compared to the Android Open Source Project platform. The Paranoid Android team and contributors are focusing on squashing existing bugs, and implementing and improving features, performance, and stability. We are dedicated to providing a user experience with the stability that you can expect from stock ROMs with best-in-class performance and features to help you get the most out of your device.

[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) ROMs, Kernels, ] armixas777:
Sound is different, but not too bad (something with stereo imaging). Problems I've encountered:

1. Mobile data doesn't work and if it works, only for few seconds (EU provider, decent connection(some apps work fine when others keep on saying there's no internet connection))

This can be APN related.

2. Screen didn't auto flip for me.

For troubleshoot, I've done everything according to instructions + was using PA recovery.

GCam could also be preinstalled as open cam is a joke.

Problems aside, I loved the feel of the ROM and looking forward to it's updates.
[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) ROMs, Kernels, ] mickaelmendes50:
Thank you for our feedback. :)

About the mobile data not working, you're the first reporting this issue, can you attach a log here plz? So I can take a look at the issue.

But make sure you're not using any kind of modifiers (like Magisk or custom kernels).

What do you mean about "Screen didn't auto flip"?

GCam Go is the default camera app, it isn't too bad. Isn't a good idea do ship a GCam because people like different versions of it, and shipping it as system app will cause trouble for who wants to use another version than preinstalled one.

[Moto Z4 Questions & Answers] legendnexus:
Hi everyone,

I've been using Moto Z4 Verizon version with Visible about 1.5 years now, generally speaking without any issues with the stock ROM and no rooting or any other software changes etc.

For the past couple of weeks, I've notice the battery running out faster than the average times I've used before. For example almost %30 of the battery would drain overnight whereas it would only be %3-4 before.

When I check the system battery statistics there is no one specific installed app draining the battery, so I am not sure if the OS background is using the battery more than necessary.

Has anyone have experienced something similar? what would be good trouble shooting steps?

Thank you in advance!
[Moto Z4 Questions & Answers] sd_shadow:
Try putting it into safe mode overnight, if battery drain is reduced it's an app you installed.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] lordvoldmort:
Recently, I'm thinking to replace my S21 ultra with either Mi 11 or Mi 11 ultra. Since the price difference is pretty big between the two devices, My question is , specially for those who owned both devices, is the ultra worth spending that much bucks over the regular Mi 11? and what are the main things I will get if I buy the ultra over the regular one?

Thanks in advance
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] xNAPx:
I think the main difference is the camera and the second screen on the rear. I can't see any reason to get any of the two coming from an S21 ultra
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] jericho246:
If you value photography, go with the Mi 11 Ultra. It can rival with the S21 Ultra. The Mi 11 is decent in terms of photos, but significantly worse than the S21 Ultra and Mi 11 Ultra.

That's basically all there is to it. If you don't care about photos then get the vanilla Mi 11, although it would be a step down from your Samsung.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] lordvoldmort:
Well

Well I do not care a lot about photography. I do care much about battery life, charging speed and performance. So is mi 11 ultra any much better in these terms over the mi 11 or the s21 ultra? also is there any other sacrifices I will be making if I change to any of those?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] dhaern:
If you dont care about photography but you want a top phone buy the Mi 11 Pro not the Mi 11, it's almost the same than the Ultra but cheaper, Ultra is a bit more elitist and unique but the Pro is almost the same phone for around $200+ cheaper.
