[Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers] tinpanalley:
I've got an S20 but will have to return it due to these ridiculous financing (leasing, let's be honest) plans that exist now. The price I'd have to pay to keep it or even an open box S20 or something is way more than what I can get a new P30 for. I've been studying the specs a lot, and it comes down to a few simple things, the question I have is quite simple...

In looking at the P30 or P30 Pro...

- Night mode or any effects based photography is of no use to me. I take photos at night to take photos at night, I don't want to see light where there isn't any.

- I'm a photographer and filmmaker and primarily use DSLRs and pro cameras so mobile phone trickery to create on the fly effects are truly pointless to me.

- If I've ever taken a photo with zoom over the last 15 years it's been to read something or see something a far distance away. Again, I'm old fashioned, but without glass, zoom isn't zoom, and 3x..5x.. we're not talking leaps and bounds here.

- I prefer a phone that shoots 24fps, that's the filmmaker in me talking, but again, I'm not doing any of my serious filmmaking projects with a phone so this is more pointless pickiness than necessity.

- I need smooth operations in the UI and OS. I don't like the OneUI look, feel, or immersion into the phone with Samsung's software everywhere, gallery is a nightmare of trendy effects and "story-telling" photo arrangement modes.

- I do like the latitude and just what the raw camera can do on the P30 vs the S20. Normal and manual mode is all I shoot and in those in specs and good samples, the P30 seems to do far better than the S20.

Questions:

1. Would you maybe just find a way to keep the S20?

2. For my needs, I don't really have any use for the far more expensive P30 Pro, do I?

Thanks to anyone who can help me out. Am I missing something? The P30 being better for MY needs given the financial and tech elements is what my research is telling me.

[Xiaomi Poco X2 Questions & Answers] araviind73:
After the MIUI 12.1.2 update, WiFi is not turning on in my Poco X2. When the service centre guys flashed it to MIUI 12.0.2, it started working properly. And they said that I can update to the 12.5 version when it arrives and there won't be a problem. But, after updating to the MIUI 12.5.1, again the WiFi feature stopped working. How can I resolve this issue ?

Can I flash it back to MIUI 12.0.2 without unlocking bootloader ?

I thought with an unlocked bootloader I could flash whatever I want as long as it worked for the phone (staying within 970f)

As a disclaimer: I do not own the sources/rights from Mokee rom dev team and its actual mantainer so in case is needed they have the right to down this post.

I`m not responsible for any nuclear explosion/dead devices/bricked/etc...,any modding you do is up to you.

As a lot of you know this device was born dead, the only possible way to get an actual android version was by installing CN rom or selling the device and get another, well, senior devs from china work very hard to get newer android versions ported to a lot of devices, as in this case MR Yang Cyborg has been pulling out some really impressive work.

This is my install/review doc from him/her/their rom version for this our NX609J.

ANDROID 9

REQUIREMENTS:

----A fully functional NX609J

----A windows/linux/macos device

INSTALL METHOD:

----Be in stock global rom, configure the device and program the fingerprint sensor, then delete the fingerprint and screen lock ,doing this avoids a bug when inside mokee you may not fingerprint

----Unlock bootloader and flash TWRP

----Boot into TWRP, flash Data, Dalvik and cache

----Flash mokee and gapps, in my case i use nikgapps

----Reboot into system

REVIEW (USED FOR 2-3 WEEKS, CLEAN FLASH UPDATED FROM RELEASE TO HISTORY)

As i get into my first impressions on the rom, i feel immediately the improvement from stock global and stock CN, every option works, no app bugs and seems to be fully stable but every day almost consistently i get a system reboot , believe is due to some watchdogs inside the system but it does not affect daily use, every bank app that i used works flawlessly, games, everything works.

The only downside is the random reboot, aside from that the rom is at least for me, perfect.

As 06/06/2021 with release 210730 the rom is pretty solid,but there are some bugs, especially the camera does not work at all, aside from it everything installs and run perfectly, any app that tries to use the app will FC.

I want to upgrade, using the nougat ROM from this forum, but it contains a bat file. what if i don't use bat file from zip, and instead of it, use cmd console with fastboot commands?

an .bat file is basically a list of commands. so this should do the work for you instead of manually typing by yourself. if you want to skip a command like me (skip oem lock) you have to go manual.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] linuxpauling:
I am in the process of installing LineageOS 18.1 onto a Pixel 3 XL (I have done a Pixel 3 before with no issues). I am following the instructions from lineageos.org (https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/crosshatch/install). It is specific instruction for the Pixel 3 XL. I have successfully completed the first number of steps but got stuck on the last one noted below:

Unlocking Bootloader (ALL COMPLETE)

enable OEM unlock

connect device to PC

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot devices

fastboot flashing unlock

reboot

re-enable usb debugging

Temporarily Booting a Custom Recovery

download a custom recover (lineage-18.1-20210803-recovery-crosshatch.img) - COMPLETE

connect device to PC - COMPLETE

adb reboot bootloader - COMPLETE

fastboot devices - COMPLETE

fastboot flash boot lineage-18.1-20210803-recover-crosshatch.img - COMPLETE (received msg that sending and writing to boot_a is okay)

reboot into recovery - INCOMPLETE

will not reboot into recovery, stays in fastboot mode

last line on fastboot mode screen says "no valid slot to boot" at one point it also said "error booting boot.img"

Any idea/suggestions on what would be the problem? I did try redoing the fastboot flash boot command an additional time and again it said it sent and wrote ok, however, still unable to reboot into recovery. I did not check the version of android on the phone before i flashed the lineage 18.1 recovery - could that be the problem? Might it be that the phone cannot run LIneage 18.1 because it is on android 10? (which I'm not sure how to check at this point). If this is the problem what would be the best solution - reflash with a lineage 17.1? Or, is there a way at this point to check and upgrade the android on the phone? Perhaps there is another problem entirely.
[MX Player] oneslaze:
Hello, so I'm having this issue with MX Player when playing files from my network because they load really slow, but the problem doesn't happen when I load them directly from MX Player, the problem happens when I load them from file explorers. I noticed that when I load them directly from MX Player their location is my network drive as in 192.168.1.50, but when I load the files from a file explorer the IP is 127.0.0.1, the port number depends on the file explorer I'm using, for example F-Stop port is 1235 and the ASUS explorer port is 2222.

So I found this thread and it seems to be a similar problem https://xdaforums.com/t/solved-how-to-stream-bluray-to-mx-player.2731461/#post-52331493 the packets "being delayed while begin dispatched".

The server is Libreelec (Kodi) with SMB2/3

But I wonder if there's any way to fix this issue without having to install a different file explorer?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] Sara-Ester:
Just like the title says, got a LG g7 eaw, it came with Android 9 and after upgrading to 10 with LG bridge I noticed this issue, I could no longer change the usb connection mode, it's stuck in charging.

I go to developers options, find the usb menu but when I tap it the popup menu flashes super fast and disappears before I can tap on a different mode. Looks like a bug but I don't know what to do to fix it, can't flash another rom because the computer won't see the stupid phone.

Any other way to change the connection mode? Taping the notification doesn't work either.

[General Questions and Answers] M5_42432:
Hi!

I have a MediaPad Pro M5

I have spent many hours on XDA following guides to install Google Service on Huawei.

Somehow neither of the method worked for me.

But I managed to install Google services by accident.

I almost gave up and decided to install at least a decent browser (Brave).

I found the browser on APKPure.

It is a kind of a third party package manager to my understanding.

To install Brave I needed to install the package manager first.

APKPure APK Downloader for Android Wear, Phones, Tablets, TV

Download and update the latest Android™ Apps apk in APKPure, the best free Android APK Downloader online right at apkpure.com. Come and join APKPure's clan.

m.apkpure.com

Brave got installed, no problem.

But to my surprise I could also find Youtube app on APKPure.

When I installed Youtube, APKPure package manager suggested to install Google Play Store as well !!!

I followed the suggestion and installed Google Play.

With Google Play I could install all the other apps, I needed.

* To moderators:

I have registered just to post this solution, because it might be a great relieve for people who are struggling like I did.

I guess I need to earn some points to post in the Huawei thread.

I have no time to earn these points, so if I'm breaking the forum rules, feel free to delete this post.

If you can move the post to the relevant thread, it would be even better.
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 1890170:
Great finding!
[General Questions and Answers] James_Watson:
In fact, it's known that on some well-known apk website such as apkmirror or apkpure, you can download apks for many free apps, including YouTube and Google Play Store.

But please note that either apkmirror or apkpure is a third-party apk distribution website.

On the other hand, if your Huawei phone, MediaPad Pro M5, does not have a built-in Google service framework, the Play Store will not work properly after you just download and install the Play Store. Does your Play Store work well?

Hey, new here and not necessarily new to rooting but haven't done so in some years...but...was just wondering if anyone can help me with a problem? Got a cheap Nuu Tab8 tablet yesterday and I'm trying to install it on my device but I'm not able to find the install option when I'm in recovery mode??

I download the manager for magisk, the zip filez I have the twrp app....but I can't figure out what to do?? Can anyone please help?I attached a pic to show my only options when in recovery.

Thanks!
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
That's the stock Android recovery. If you want to use a custom recovery you'll need to first install TWRP, if it's available for your device. Otherwise you'll need to get the boot image and patch that with the Magisk app before flashing it to your device.

https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html
[Magisk] NekroSlaughter:
I have the twrp app and it's still not showing up...I'm not sure what to do..?
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Not the TWRP app, the TWRP recovery image. For example, on my OnePlus 5T I'd download the image from the TWRP website and then flash with

fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

It's far from certain that TWRP is available for your device though.
[Magisk] NekroSlaughter:
I'm gonna check what I can do and my options here. I haven't rooted for years and I think I used that stupid kingoroot app before so I never got this deep. After I get the file, what would be my next step?
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Sounds like you need to read up a bit on the basics... Search the web a bit.

How to use fastboot would be a good start, and also how to get a copy of your boot image if TWRP isn't available for your device.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 007ace:
Ive followed the guide on how to install TWRP on my Firestick (Tank) and successfully rolled back to a pre-rooted version. I have installed Magisk, and blocked updates

Following this guide I have set my custom launcher to be the primary used, but they recommend running "pm disable com.amazon.tv.launcher"

After running this, my device works great. No issues with home buttons, or Amazons launcher taking over. However on restarting, I get 'rebuilding databases' or some such, 'please wait 10 minutes'. After this is finished, nothing happens. I reboot, it happens again. The bar stays on the screen and I have no access to any of my content.

I can ADB to my firestick at this point, but not before the bar fills, this tells me that the stick is waiting for something to run, and as soon as I enable com.amazon.tv.launcher everything is back up, I boot to Amazons launcher, then choose my own launcher via LaunchX. From then on, everything is as it should be.

I can reboot and go straight through my 'amazon' 'fireTVstick' logos and into the amazon launcher until my custom one takes over again. My home button uses my custom launcher. All good.

Long winded rant over. Now, did I miss something? This guide was from 5 years ago. Things may have changed. Is there some way to stop amazons tv launcher from being used at all? Save the RAM? Or is this just the way things are?

Thanks so much for coming along for this ride.
