[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] rituj_b:
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.

Notice

As we are growing on our list of supported devices in each release, we require of a stronger build environment so we can speed up the compilation process for releases. Based on the actual Quartz 4 list, we support over 30 devices, which takes between 2 and 3 days for all the builds to be completed without counting possible compilation issues or rebuild needs, based on our current specs.

We kindly ask all of you that are in position to donate anything, to help and support us so we can provide better and faster build releases, as well as increase the download speed of our servers, all looking for your enjoyment.

Thank you very much for this !

Everything works flawless !

Just one question : how can i disable battery charging light ?

I couldn't find it anywhere...
[Moto G5S Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] ronaxdevil:
Go to sertings > system > extra

In that you will get the option named as charging led put the slider to 0 to disable it

That's a really long post there my friend. You could have just flashed combination files then flashed the stock ROM and it will work...

But yeah, if you're really into paying for something that will not work as intended, installing possibly malicious stuff on both your PC and your Android and wasting half a day on the other steps that in the end may or may not work. You can probably do that.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] erucoco:
Unfortunatelly didn't worked for me. Even I managed to set a lock pattern, when I get to the step 16 and tap on "Apps", I get the message that the device was factory reset and I have to verify the account. Even though I have the original account, I can't have it working.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] coldspring22:
Thanks for sharing detailed steps on how to defeat frp on a more recent Samsng phone. Lucky for me I am only interested in ancient phones with removable battery. Looks like google really locked down the backdoors available to defeat frp. For really older phones like Galaxy Note 4 or LG G5 it's easy once you launch chrome then google map then driving where you can access google assistant.

Found out a quicker way which worked for my device "G950FXXUCDUD"

Flashed the "Samsung Galaxy S8 SM-G950F - DBT - G950FXXUCDUD1" ROM from the Link

with mentioned "patched odin 3.14.4".

Booted up to the screen with "emergerncy-call" and started the ***youfrp V1.15 app on my windows machine

https://xdaforums.com/t/tool-samsung-your-frp-frp-removal-tool-updated-5-5-2020.4439497/

Followed by these instruction this app enabled adb in the Diagnostic-Menu and the settings-page appeard. After that the FRP-Lock was gone.

Thank you!
[General Questions and Answers] Thomasz24:
I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 ( SM-T505), it worked fine for me a couple of months.

But after a short while ( I would say that Samsung forced me to update to the latest drivers/ firmware ink. Ul. I have 2.5 ), but as I know many updates make more harm than it's worth.

I even have a similar problem with my previous device.

Because however after Samsung forced me to update to the latest Ul ( OS)- from 9 to 10, the unit completly crashed ( stopped working for me).

So what my point is that if it's possibel to manualy download updates (to disable autoupdates permanently= never check and download any updates aut)?

But however as the newbe I'm in this world ( and try to contact Samsung Support seems usless, since they even won't take me seriously and just say that they either have no idea,or that I should do a factory reset).

Due to my own personal experiences is that an update wont change anything. It just replaces ( overlap an existing file,but won't eraise it)

But mostly that after every update it seems that every dev is trying to rewind the wheel every time,and that the unit works even worse after an update.

At the same time It also seems that Odinforum is down.

I myself have tryed to register but didn't get any confirnation mail.

But what's most positive is that I saw some articles about this,but since I'm a complete newbie I don't know where and how to start

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] cornwall:
Hi all!

I am a sometimes happy sometimes unhappy owner of a Diamond from France.

I have a question for you guys out there: today, I wanted to listen to music with having the phone set to "vibrate", just like I used to do with my beloved SE K800. End result: no music, nothing.

Can't it be possible to listen to music and set the phone to vibrate only (being in the street, walking, going into shops, peole don't need to listen to your dumb ringtones!).

For information, I use my Jabra BT-8010 as a music headset. Even with it, I couldn't listen to music when I set the phone to vibrate or silence... Music would stop instantly.

Any help would be greatly appreciated !

Cheers to all from South of France
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] 964rs777:
sounds like a question from an irish man.lol.

to be honest i cant see how you would do this

as you are muting all sounds by turning it to vibrate.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Rudegar:
guess you can set it to vibrate in the phone settings just not from the today sound icon

and that set everything to vibrate not just the phone
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] cornwall:
THX for your answers, but how do I do that ?

Is there any kind of "profile" (just like Sony Ericsson) where you can set the phone to vibrate but let the music flow ?

Thanks again !
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] uiuiuiui:
1. Coming from a Redmi Note 4 (RN4) I know Xiaomi/Poco likes to source components like camera sensors, diplay panels and fingerprint sensors from different manufacturers. If you bought a RN4 half a year after release you got a worse camera sensor (Samsung instead of Sony) and display. What can I expect buying an X3 NFC at this point? Did you hear of worse displays and camera sensors being used? I'd like to have a sony sensor.

2. Does the Gcam on Custom-ROMs perform worse than on Stock MIUI (becauses of worse drivers maybe, I've read this somewhere)?

3. Are there 100% stable Gcams for this phone out there? I've always had crashes in bright sunlight with Gcam on my RN4.

4. Can we expect official LOS for this device soon?

Thanks
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] Noter2017:
1. It's all the same hardware. From the very first reviews to the current point, nothing was changed.

2. I haven't heard that. GCam and ANXCam (stock MIUI camera for custom ROMs) have an own forum, so you may take a look.

3. GCams are pretty stable. If you had crashes in bright sunlight on your phone, you had the wrong version installed.

4. Looks like it. Take a look at the LOS thread.

I got a Poco X3 NFC myself 3 weeks ago to replace my Redmi Note 4X after 4 years or so:

Unlocking the bootloader is the same as for the Redmi Note 4X. Flashing a custom ROM for the first time was a little different than what I was used to but also very easy.

Currently I'm running ArrowOS with GApps pre-installed and I couldn't be happier. Super stable, everything works and has lots of features that are actually Pixel exclusive.

Running ArrowOS, you still get unlimited picture upload in Google Photos, for me example.

The last custom ROM I had on my Redmi Note 4X was AOSiP (Android 10) and ArrowOS feels exactly the same. It's pure Android with the addition of some Pixel features
