Hi, searching about Xcarlink in this forum i found your review. so that you had installed this device and i want to buy one can i ask you some question??

i thik to understand that the bluetooth module has also the function of wireless stereo speaker...that give all the sound of the PDA, it's correct? So calls and tomtom notes, right? So if i listen music from SD/USB at an incoming call music stop to answer the phone...but what succede if while i'm listen a SD song tomtom give me a note?? Stops music or tomtom voice speaks over or nothing? I'm intencioned to make a wired system to, but only to charge the acer, have calls and tomtom note on the car system via bluetooth, music via Xcarlink SD/USB so i can use steering Wheel control (touch screen it's not so practical to use to change track or else driving...imho).

Thanks if you have time to answer.sorry for the bad english.

[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] Lagarde:
Been in the ROM/kernel scene for waaaaaaay too long and have constantly been told that I should use LineageOS (and its predecessor), esp on the Pixel devices that are no longer supported officially. However, LineageOS consistently fails me on every device, despite my being able to get everything BUT LineageOS to work. I've got to be missing something. Going to go through my experiences below...maybe someone can advice how the heck they get LineageOS to work for them on pixel devices?

Round 1: Nexus 6 (CM)

- Installed great

- No initial issues

- Randomly, phone would report "no sim" and stop working

- Reboots sometimes fixed the SIM issue, but sometimes didn't

- Calls lost because the SIM vanished, phone dropped data during a long drive, thus losing GPS access

- Random "service stopped" errors, usually regarding bluetooth

- Never resolved, even over a dozen different versions of CM (this was before Lineage, but same base)

Round 2: Pixel 2 (LOS 16?)

- Installed great, but had to be careful which gapps to use, as most were larger than the system partition

- No SIM errors right away, but a few reboots cleared it up

- Project Fi issues nonstop, with the phone unregistering several times a day

- SIM errors came back, saying my SIM is missing or damaged

- Overheating problems with the CPU. Appears to be the known bug with the CPU, but only appears in LineageOS

- Random "service stopped" errors, usually about the launcher

- Never resolved over different versions of LineageOS (last version tried was I think 16)

Round 3: Pixel 3 (LOS 17.1)

- ROM installs fine, but the notes say you need the Super Gapps to use Project Fi...but that Gapps doesn't fit in system. This seems like an oversight. Installed with smaller Gapps for testing, knowing there may be some Project Fi issues later. Each "try" below is a fresh reformat.

- First try, it popped up an error that there was a SIM, but it was damaged and unreadable. Could not continue. Told me to order a new SIM (the SIM's fine...). Lots and lots of errors about services crashing.

- Second try, it popped up an error that there was no SIM at all. It offered to just use wifi, which I accepted for testing. After downloading updates, it said the wifi doesn't work. Reboots, retries, just wouldn't work...even though it obviously had up to that point.

- Third try, it said my SIM was damaged again. This time it offered to activate eSIM online. Not sure why it hadn't said that previously, but ok. I tell it to activate...and it says the wifi is down. But...it isn't. Wifi working great, but can't activate the phone.

Overall, super frustrating and I can't imagine others are getting these errors, or LOS would have died out looong ago. How are others getting around these?!?
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] nasch007:
I just did a brand new install of a Lineage OS 18.1 nightly on my Pixel 3. I used NikGapps core since it has support for Android 11. I don't use Project Fi so I can't attest to that. So far everything has been running perfectly, with the exception of a few missing features or bugs I cannot figure out (small quality of life issues- nothing major). I too had issues in the past with CyanogenMod and I killed my old Motorola that way (probably user error though). I know you said your SIM is fine, but being that it has happened on 3 different devices... is it actually the same exact SIM? Might be worth the $10 fee or whatever to replace it. I haven't had a single error about any services crashing or stopping, perhaps I'm just lucky? One of the roms or gapps packages I was reading the notes on said you could install it in 1 or 2 different partitions, essentially making the size a non-issue. Stupidly, I can't remember which item I read that on, but it is apparently out there if you're willing to look.

I set up all my apps and stuff over WiFi and got the phone how I want it before plugging in my SIM card. I'm on T-Mobile. When I plugged in the SIM I didn't have to do any configuration at all it just works, even has WiFi calling. I don't have any apps on autoupdate and was careful about what "System" apps I toggled or installed from the play store. I'm afraid I can't help you much other than to tell you the nightly from 05-18-2021 doesn't give me the issues it seems to give you. Sorry bud!
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] Lagarde:
Appreciate you looking at that. I haven't tried 18.1 yet, as I'm a bit gunshy after how bad 17.1 went for me. I'm strongly suspecting most of my issues go back to Project Fi...but it's not the SIM. I've actually bought 2 extra SIMs over the years trying to resolve this very issue. They all do the same thing on LOS.

Hadn't seen the splitting of gapps. That's news to me. Will look into that, as Project Fi requires the largest of the gapps...which is too big to fit into the system partition.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] shaunoleary:
I'm running LOS 18.1 on my P3 blueline, running it for ages. I use OpenGapps Pico, and haven't had any issues to speak of. It took me a bit to figure out how to flash ROMs etc. on my P3 when I first bought it about 12 months ago, but once I got the hang of it, haven't had any issues.

LOS 18.1 seems very fast and responsive. Rooting with Magisk 23, running LSPosed through Riru, and even have Google Pay working like a charm. Android Auto working perfectly (patched with AIO and Scren2Auto so I can run virtually any apps on my car display if I want to).

Updates are fairly smooth; the only catch is I have to be careful to reflash the Magisk-patched boot.img before rebooting into the system, otherwise I lose root, and by extension, GPay stops working. I just update the ROM using ADB instead of the on-device updater, flash in TWRP recovery, then flash the patched boot.img in Fastboot ... reboot ... and Bob's your uncle.

I also have an old Nexus 7 (2013), and run LOS 18.1 on that 8-year-old tablet very nicely. It can be a tad sluggish on occasion, but for the most part it runs perfectly. The N7 is mostly my games/play machine. I use WiFi hotspot from the P3 when out and about to give the N7 internet access when needed - no problems.

All that to say ... Don't be afraid to try LOS 18.1. It's a fantastic ROM. Can't wait until LOS 19 builds start cropping up.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] AsItLies:
Good info. Have 18.1 also and have it set up to allow OTA updates and keep magisk and my gapps. Have only done 1 update that way but works perfectly, keeps magisk modules also.

Curious, which twrp are u using? Didn't think there was one available?

cheers
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] shaunoleary:
Not using TWRP, I'm just using LOS recovery. Sadly, it doesn't allow for doing backups, but it does the job otherwise.

Just an update BTW - currently running into issues with Google Pay/SafetyNet, but it's due to Google playing silly buggers with GPay again, not the fault of LOS.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] johnp357:
So I am using Samsung's messages and phone because I need it to enable Call & Text on my Tablet. But samsung messages doesn't allow me to mark a spam text that doesn't have a phone number associated with it. it only deletes it. Verizon wants to charge $17 p/m which seems absurd. Any ideas? I can't be the only that has this problem right? Currently using stock software on VZ.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Misterxtc:
I'm on Verizon unlimited and I can block email messages for free. I forgot exactly where but if ypu log in to your account from a pc there are blocking options for this in your device settings.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] johnp357:
Thanks!! I hope this works. I wonder why they lied about charging for 17 for this service?? hate VZ..
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Misterxtc:
Because they suck lol. They charged me $40 because I bought a new phone from Samsung and activated it. I'll just stick with swapping sim cards next time. There are more options with the paid service but that's all I need anyway. Hopefully that did it for you.
[Magisk] Alexandrxxxxx:
Hi everybody!

I have a question!

How to use Magisk with it's modules in safe mode?

I understand that I can catch bootloop but I still need this feature.
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Change the code and build your own version of Magisk that has that feature disabled.
[Magisk] Alexandrxxxxx:
I have commented code block which detect safe mode and rebuilt the project, but it does not have any affect.

/*if (getprop("persist.sys.safemode", true) == "1" || check_key_combo()) {

//safe_mode = true;

// Disable all modules and magiskhide so next boot will be clean

//disable_modules();

// stop_magiskhide();

exec_common_scripts("post-fs-data");

auto_start_magiskhide(false);

handle_modules();

}*/

Any ideas/suggestions?
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
None... Even though I'm quite heavily involved in the Magisk project, I have very little knowledge of the nitty-gritty of the code.

I guess you're just gonna have to dig deeper.

Hi! So my v50 is on bootloop. Thought I could fix it by flashing the stock firmware through LGUP but I'm stuck with finding how can the v50 be connected to the computer.

I can go to download mode but it is not being detected by the computer.

I have tried to figure this out (through reading alot of threads) but still hav´nt the full picture...

I dumped the raw files as described in http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2577058&postcount=6

1. Is my version of the SPL included in the raw files above?

(If not, how can i dump my version of the SPL)

2. Is the raw files above enough to rebuild my Touch Pro to my originally state ?

(Warranty worries :-)

/Rgds, Hans
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] jcespi2005:
1. No, only OS and XIP are in part02 and part01 respect. You Can't, but you can get it from a shipped NBH file.

2. you need a RUU_Signed.NBH from a shipped ROM plus the two files in the first point.

I'll create a thread soon with the reconstruction process to help ppl in the proccess...

[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] rambo8987:
after alot of mixed info floating around I decided to take the risk, heres how I did it. Mi 11 Ultra 12/512 china varient

updated device to latest version via updater

unlocked bootloader via miFlash

Downloaded stable 12.5 rom https://sourceforge.net/projects/xi...files/xiaomi.eu/MIUI-STABLE-RELEASES/MIUIv12/

rebooted into fastboot and ran the windows bat file in the command promt

wait about 5-10mins for 1st boot

And magic!

been testing features and as i can see the rom is overall more smooth and polished, Im in th US on Tmobile and still getting 5g, banking apps work, google pay works, no more issues with needing to go into every app to enable notifications, any other questions let me know! now only waiting for root method and TWRP

Congrats, great to hear it worked out nicely for you ! May I ask which the latest CN version was ? Was ist 12.0.13 or 12.5.2 ?

no after reboot after unlocking bootloader since its unlocked it remains unlocked so no need to mess with debug
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] rambo8987:
i was surprised too, but i just ordered starbucks with gpay and it works flawless. not sure if unlocked BL it self triggers safetynet fail as there is no way far as i know to currentyl ROOT which i could see tripping it, but then there magisk which would solve that

[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] ds592:
Hi,

Is wi-fi calling supported on XQ-AS62, US Variant of this phone ? If so, which networks. I am specifically interested if the feature works on Tmobile or a Tmobile MVNO.

I see contradictory information on the forums and hope someone who owns the phone can give a definitive answer.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] PPGX5II:
As mentioned on other thread:

"Nope, I am using T-Mobile and Wi-Fi calling is not supported(no option in settings), even *#*#4636#*#* menu shows Wifi Calling Provisioned toggle disabled and Off (VoLTE Provisioned is disabled and On)"

I did some research and there is no definitive answer to why Wifi Calling doesn't work with T-Mobile but I suspect it has something to do with Certification from T-Mobile, Sony and T-Mobile should work like they did for VoLTE to enable Wifi Calling. (Not sure if rooting and adding some config will change this but out of Box Wifi Calling is not working with T-Mobile)
[Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers] ds592:
Thanks for the information. I assumed the North American variant meant it would support all network features of US carriers.

I see Sony Experia phones in the past that did support wi-fi calling on Tmobile, so its surprising they have dropped the support on their flagship phones.
[General Questions and Answers] UserCroft:
Helo! I'm new here at FORUM. In a desperate attempt I decided to create an account here and try to solve my problem with a Samsung device.

It all started when I received a Samsung Galaxy Core 2 device to fix. It is stuck on the Samsung screen and does not start the system. I first tried to install the original ROM of the device with the correct binary through the Sammobile website using the Odin3 program. I tested about 4 different ROMS, but none of them worked.

After unsuccessfully trying to install the ROM I decided to restore the device using Hard Reset mode by pressing the correct key combination. And this is where I came across a very worrying problem. The correct options would be to show the Recovery options on the device's screen, but on this device they do not appear. The only thing that appears is the Android symbol with a red exclamation symbol. This screen appears for 3 seconds only ... after that the system restarts and returns to the Samsung screen again.

I've been trying to find a solution to this problem for a week and so far I haven't found anything.

I installed several features through Download Mode, but none of them were recognized by the system (All features were compatible with the model). Some of these features were Custom Recovery ... TWRP ... CWM .. Custom ROMS ... etc. I installed all of them through Odin3, but after the process was over and the phone restarted it didn't install because it jumped straight to the Samsung screen again.

Since no option on the Hard Reset screen was showing up, I decided to press a few keys at random to try to access an option. After a few attempts I finally managed to see some information. Now I come across written information: '' E: failed to mount / efs (invalid argument) '' https://ibb.co/FmBtv10 (Error Image).

And this is where it gets worse, because I don't know what that means. The only things I have left on the device is that message and nothing more. There are no more options to access.

I hope this device has a solution. I would be very grateful if someone could help me with this. Thanks for reading.
[General Questions and Answers] Tab E:
When flashing your firmware using odin, try ticking nand erase. Nand erase erases boot

kernel

recovery

system

data

cache

.android_secure

datadata

wimax

efs

preload.

This should solve your mounting problem
[General Questions and Answers] UserCroft:
Thank you for your attention in answering my question.

I checked the box that says '' Nand Erase All ''. After the Firmware was installed the phone restarted to the Samsung screen again .... so I think it didn't work. Correct would be to restart with the Android logo, correct?

I tried to mark the other options as well ... such as '' Phone Bootloader Update '' ... '' Phone EFS Clear '', but none of them worked. The biggest problem is the reboot, because the files are not being loaded by the system to be installed .... when Odin restarts the cell phone it goes straight to the Samsung screen and from there it keeps loading forever.

Am I using the wrong USB cable or is a PC feature missing? I use a Samsung cable and the Drivers are installed on Windows. Samsung driver version is 1.5.61.0.

I'll be waiting for another suggestion.
[General Questions and Answers] Tab E:
When flashing TWRP through odin, untick auto reboot, hold power Volume down and home button. You will see a black screen. Then immediately press power volume up home button. Then flash a custom rom. You ticked the bootloader update option, but Samsung core 2 doesn't have bootloader. Hope the nand erase fixed the mounting
[General Questions and Answers] UserCroft:
Before I do this procedure I need to ask a few questions. Do I need any requirements to install TWRP? This phone has no ROOT and no other modifications.

Does the ROM that I am going to install need to be compatible with TWRP? I am trying to install an official Samsung ROM without modification.

I will try to use the version for the SM-G355H. The TWRP for this model is hard to find.

Just remembering that my recovery screen is dead, so I don't have access to anything in the device's Recovery options. I look forward to new answers so I can continue.
[General Questions and Answers] Tab E:
1. You need no requirements to flash twrp

2. Every rom for your device is compatible.

Just a few questions,

After nand erase and firmware flash, do you still have a corrupted recovery?

Does the firmware that you are flashing, and the model number in Odin mode match?
[General Questions and Answers] UserCroft:
I followed those instructions you sent me. I used a TWRP file for the model SM-G355H (I hope it is compatible with this model). The file is called '' recovery.tar.md5 ''. I opened Odin Version 3.0.9 and deactivated the '' Auto Reboot '' option. I passed the TWRP file to the cell phone and did the commands you sent me. The phone restarts with a brief Android screen for 3 seconds and disappears. There are no commands to do. It goes to the Samsung screen again. So I think it didn't work for me.

I hit the keys the same way you told me to (I hope Lol)

You told me to install the custom rom. Is this done after installing TWRP and the phone restarts?

Answering your first question: If you are referring to the error '' E: failed to mount / efs (invalid argument) '' yes. It appears after I press the volume button up or down as soon as the android screen appears (The recovery screen that appears only the symbol of the android lying with a red sign). I wish I could access this screen for a longer time, but it disappears quickly.

Answering your second question: I am using an official 4-part ROM. It corresponds to my country. SM-G355M G355MUBU0AQB1 ZTO G355MZTO0AQB1 OPEN BR ANDROID 4.4.2 FULL FLASH. The version of my Odin is 3.0.9. I heard that this version is the best for installing Android 4.4.2 KitKat systems, so I decided to use it.

Just one more question. Does the Cell Phone have to be 100% charged for this to work? I think I was at 60% when I tried the procedure.

Sorry for asking so many questions. I have little knowledge of the subject. If you can send me a tutorial on the internet in video or written so I can save your time feel free to send me. Thanks!
