Screen shots from my V30 and it's ability to change resolution. Now granted I know little of phone screens but it seems like something that can be done. I was just looking to see if a app or hidden setting existed. Was LG able to do it because of different screen tech?

[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] predict9:
is that stretched?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] nate600:
In windows on a desktop if you go to System, Display, Display Resolution, you can adjust the resolution to fit your connected display. On my Old LG V30 you could do the same thing to improve performance / save battery. With the principle being the lower the resolution the easier it is for the GPU to draw. Like dropping a First person shooter from 4K to 1440p to get higher frame rate.

But instead of being one app on the LG V30 it was the

whole phone

, all apps and video's, etc.. would run at the adjusted resolution. Why cant it be done on the Poco F3?

Btw this si wrong you can use Adb
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] nate600:
Thanks 👍. I thought it should be easy.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] 3zozHashim:
if you changed resolution even with adb the notch becomes weirdly stretched, the statusbar becomes weirdly big, letters get weirdly cut
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] predict9:
can it be stretched like pc
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] 3zozHashim:
what do you mean? fill the screen instead of a small screen in the middle?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] predict9:
yes instead of black bars filled
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] 3zozHashim:
yeah fullscreen

for adb:

for terminal:

to reset to normal:
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] predict9:
no i get black bars on the bottom and top of screen pocof3 i have root btw
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] 3zozHashim:
are you sure about that? because im not getting any...
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] predict9:
yes if i put for example 1150x1950 i get black bars on top and bottom i would like it to be stretched do you have a poco f3 or?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] 3zozHashim:
you cant just change resolution and be done with it. you need to change density as well

use wm density and wm resolution to know the stock values then use ratio to set resolution and density
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] predict9:
bro you know that density doenst change scaling of your screen right it changes only the size of letters apps etc i want basically fill to fit screen and make it like pc
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] 3zozHashim:
oh... you are trying to change the aspect ratio...

and why are you using a higher resolution than the one that came with the phone? 1150... 1080...
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] predict9:
s you dont know how to change aspect ratio?

i am mobile gamer so would like to see it stretched
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] 3zozHashim:
no, idk how to change aspect ratio
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Ravindrasan:
If someone Wants to save battery by using less pixels that is lowering the resolution in a sense, there are some roms that include this feature as "Smart Pixels". I'm using EvolutionX in my Mi 11x and this feature is included here.

hi,

i have the last official rom 3.13 of HTC and when i tray to install TomTom 7 he find the map but do't find the GPS. When i run GPSRapide he update the position of the gps. Someone can help me please ?:)
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] luigug:
Check that GPS is setted to "Built-in GPS receiver".

For this operation you must tap in TomTom 7 main menù: Change preference>Show GPS status>Configure

;)
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] pahalwan-ji:
you may also try trying to connect COM PORT 4 . or atleast trying connect each of them .. as soon as that black and yellow circule starts moving.. this is where you are connected.. but tomtom 7 has it's own builtin GPS configuration .. which should connect as luigug explained.

Hi, i have Mi 9T with lineageOS 17.1, that i deleted accidentally a folder with pictures, but as precaution, i have a few data recovering apps that use root and can do a proper "full" scan for recovery, instead of just "deleted" recovery.

they use root, but they don't see the partition where the user data is, and find nothing after scan. tried 3 apps that use root for a proper recovery, all result the same. nothing is found to recover. some don't let select where to scan, but the ones that have this option, only show this:

View attachment 5375167

Don't know if is a magisk problem, or if the "list" of partitions that is show to an root app is configurable, or i need to mount something to make it able to see the user data (i think /storage)

any help appreciated
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] pipar:
So i rooted my 5 for the first time today and it all worked good. ( I used Magisk 23.0 and twrp-3.4.0-10-cheeseburger-dumpling-mauronofrio )

Now that I try to install apps or update them I get an error notification which says that it cant be downloaded and I should insert and sd card or usb storage with sufficent storage.

Some very small apps seem to be downloadable like terminal emulator.

So I tried lots of things to fix this but non worked or some step in the fix doesn't work for example tried this this and it seems to not work since some commands dont seem to work, but one command said that cache is read only which that fix is supposed to make read and write. I also tried this where i used the app and the first fix doesn't work but the second says it does but it doesn't work anyways, also the manual one fix 1 says there is no folder and fix2 seems to work but it has no output or doesn't help.

I also notice if i turn on file transfer when connected to pc and i try to check files on the phone nothing gets shown or am able to put something in it.

Hi, for those who doesn't know what's charge separation, it's a feature that directly pulls the charging power to the screen, limiting the heat on your battery and it will prolonged the battery life.

So I'm just wondering is there any app out there can achieve this "charge separation" for s21 ultra? Can it be done by software or it is something only can be done on hardware?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] enigmaamit:
That is not what charge separation means. It was misused as a marketing term by the RedMagic 6 phone. i think what you're talking about is called bypass charging. AFAIK, it's a feature which has to be built into the phone by the manufacturer. Usually seen in gaming phones where phone is used heavily while plugged in, like the Redmagic, ROG phone, etc. The S21U does not have bypass charging enabled on stock firmware.

Have read some reports online that it can be enabled on some devices with special factory cables or modified kernels, but haven't heard of it being done successfully on a Samsung. Need some developers to comment on this. Maybe @dr.ketan can shed some light.

Found this link claiming a workaround for bypass charging on an unsupported device : https://android.stackexchange.com/q...tery-but-use-connected-power-to-run-the-phone

EDIT: new info updated
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] daniel_loft:
It is also called battery idle charging. But it has to be built into the kernel.

Advanced Charging Controller can help you activate it (if the kernel supports it) or give you a functionality that is similar (by heavily limiting the charging current), but you need a rooted phone and a 3rd party kernel that supports it.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] kelv_awesome:
Thanks for the info. I think this is a great feature that every smartphone should have implement it.

if your battery is 2-3 years old, try changing it with new one.. mine was struck in bootloop, tried flashing but didn't worked out.

it got fixed by changing the battery
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] esgrovio:
So...sorry for forgetting...if it helps anyone:

i left the phone for about a week...then i decided to try again the "tricks" because i really like this phone..

i removed the PIN from my sim card, inserted it in the simtray and tried to call my nuber from my girlfriend's phone. i tried it like about seven times ... nothing...

then i went to make dinner and suddenly remembered i was waiting for a call and rushed to take the sim to my working phone...and when i ejected the sim....voilá... it started working again...so i deactivated the poco launcher and now i'm using the nova launcher and it's working fine...

Anyway thanks for the concern to all that answered...
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] lockhrt999:
For me, the phone boots fine if I remove SIM card. Once booted, you can clear data of poco launcher and it'll work fine for few days.
[General Topics] EasiStudio:
I have a task to collect the Google Map co-ordinates of hotels and guest houses located in a region of the UK.

My idea is to purchase a GPS receiver to use with a Pocket PC handheld device (that I bought years ago), visit the hotels and by utilising the GPS, enter the latitude and longitude co-ordinates into a database application I have installed on this PDA. This database already has the address details of each hotel so my task in the field (well on the street to be more accurate) is to verify the existing information is correct and adding the co-ordinates. Once back in my office, I will then synchronise the PDA database with an Access database on a PC.

However as I do more research I have found there are many applications already in this field although I am not sure which would be suitable for my needs. Are there any that you could paste in a list of 300 hotel names, then walk to a location and simply click a button to store the GPS co-ordinates for a particular hotel?

Facilities at my disposal

Mobile Phone: LG Viewty with unlimited mobile internet @ £1.00 per day

PDA: iPAQ 3850 (no Bluetooth)

OS: Microsoft Pocket PC Version 4.2.xxx

Database: Data On The Run

512Mb SD card installed

iPAQ external battery jacket with available CF slot

I have yet to purchase a GPS or any mapping software.

Therefore I would be extremely grateful for any advice on the best way to approach this (what to buy etc). I should add that I have no need for navigational features.

[Android TV General] deadman96385:
Yes it can be unlocked with the standard bootloader unlocking instructions for pixels. We are working on LineageOS for it, currently the repos have already been forked to the primary organization. We are just doing the finishing touches to it before it will go official.

[Android TV General] deadman96385:
To expand on this there are a few devices that are very similar so they share the common device tree. Google ADT-3 (Deadpool) and Dynalink TV box (Wade) are using the same board. Onn box is a variant of the board used on those with a few features and hardware removed to cut cost presumably. Everything is sharing a common kernel because amlogic has a unified kernel that supports all their soc's.
[Android TV General] eagledipesh:
Unified kernel means this can be easily ported to s912?

Hey folks - I've installed Lineage OS "dopinder" for the Walmart Onn Android TV device. Can't run Netflix on it. Ultimately I want YouTube without ads.

Looks like I will need to run Magisk on this thing.

Can anybody help me run Magisk on the standard OS? It would be nice to have Netflix and also to be able to install some kind of ad-free YouTube. Has anybody done this yet? Anybody working on it?

I'm a noob to all this but if anybody would like to help me, I would love to try and get Magisk working.

For starters, does anybody know where I can get the stock/factory image? I erased mine when I installed Lineage OS on the Onn Android TV UHD device.

Do I need the stock recovery, too?
[Android TV General] Cheesethief:
No need for rooting or flashing a new ROM. You can easily have ad-free youtube with Smart Tube Next. All you *should* need is the SmartTubeNext apk from github, a USB OTG cable with power, a USB stick, and a file explorer from the play store. Navigate to the USB stick and install the apk. Allow sideloading when it asks you. Log in and enjoy. Netflix should be available on the stock ROM.

This is all assuming the USB port on the ONN is OTG capable, which most streaming sticks have.

[Android TV General] LedgendaryEpics:
Does this work for the onn tv stick?
[Android TV General] shinji257:
From my understanding the stick version (for $25) is not OTG capable. The box though (for $30) is OTG capable as I have checked it out myself. You have to use a FAT32 filesystem though otherwise the OS won't read the drive.

Development is pretty good on this thread: [UNOFFICIAL] LineageOS 18.1 for Amlogic G12*/SM1 Family Devices. It can get a little confusing due to the mixture of several devices, so you should read pretty much the whole thing.

I'm sticking with rooted stock on the 1st of 2 that I got until Lineage gets a bit more refined. Many thanks/kudos to those in that thread for all they have done and are still working on.

Second one is still pure stock OOB (never setup or connected to the Internet) that I am just experimenting with prior to actually flashing/modifying anything. It is still bootloader locked, yet I can still boot the Lineage recovery (odd). Actually flashing it w/o unlocking is doubtful, but still remains to be seen until I decide to bust it's cherry ;)

Time permitting, I'll post some Onn Walmart (aka dopinder) specific things here if anyone gets lost over there. Just ask.

dopinder (Walmart onn UHD Streaming Device 2021) - SC.20231117 - Firmware 2.01.04 - Security Nov 5 2023 - Kernel 4.9.269 (Nov 17 2023) - Android TV 12

https://android.googleapis.com/packages/ota-api/package/c045703970b1c7a21ec0f22ab00ea27976f975aa.zip

For me the OTA failed with the built in updater - I had to use recovery and do adb sideload.

This release also brings an update to the remote (V2.10)
[Android TV General] CrysisLTU:
Works fine for me. You should get a notification that the remote has an update - install it and see if it fixes your issues.

After the update to Android 12, I am also getting the "Use an original remote to set this up" if I am to configure the remote.

Is there any way to re-trigger to update to the remote? I have done a factory reset and re-pair the remote too.

Under the Remote/Accessories, the remote shows v1.99.
[Android TV General] ooftymcgoofty:
Hello-updated to 12 yesterday, took remote update, now remote does not work-only solid green light. remove batteries, put back in (fresh batts), only solid green light, can't get into pairing mode, can't pair by pressing side button on device. Same results whether device is on or off. Uninstalled update on device, no change. May be a stupid question, but does the remote update update the actual remote?

Anyone else seeing this? Someone on reddit has posted the same issue. Thanks.
[Android TV General] CrysisLTU:
I find it strange that for me the OTA failed (maybe because of unlocked bootloader and Magisk, but I tried uninstalling Magisk and then applying OTA, still failed)

Perhaps people with remote problems should try to adb sideload the update zip through recovery and see if that fixes things? As for me the remote updated successfully and had no issues at all with the remote not working properly.
[Android TV General] Functioner:
How did it fail?

Other than manually checking for the update, the automated ota installed ok here, with an unlocked bootloader status both before and after the ota. The build on the device before the ota was old:

Onn/sti6140d360/sti6140d360:10/QT/20210209:user/release-keys

There were multiple reboots, like 3 or 4 (would need to review the log to be sure).

For the final reboot of the ota, the new bootloader uses the file att.key (as some type of data input) from the ota to do some type of "factory_provision" of the "wvkey" keybox:

8771 bytes read in 5 ms (1.7 MiB/s)
Need to burn att key(factory_provision write wvkey 0x1080000 0x2243)...

8771 bytes written
[FACTORY-PROVISION] write keybox 'wvkey' success
Saving Environment to aml-storage...
mmc env offset: 0x39400000
Writing to MMC(1)... done

A downgrade back to 10 might not work after this.
[Android TV General] CrysisLTU:
Simply once the OTA downloaded, it installed for a bit and then rebooted into the recovery part of the upgrade process, and there it just showed Error! with the Android robot, and rebooted back into the OS.
[Android TV General] killer23d:
I've played around with the box and this is what I know after upgrade to Android 12:

- Bootloader is locked. It cannot be unlocked with previous command

- OEM Unlock option is greyed out in Developer Options

- Downgrading is not possible with both OTA or factory image (cannot unlock bootloader)

- Under Remotes and Accessories, my remote has a firmware version of 1.99. My remote works, just it can't learn IR and I am presented with Continue Setup with Original Remote message.

I reinstalled with the OTA update via ADB, did a factory reset, the remote problem still persists. I suspect it is an OS problem. I notice there is an app called Remote Update Service, I wonder if it's something Google pushed?

How would I go about reporting this problem to Onn? This is definitely worth looking into.
[Android TV General] CrysisLTU:
Ouch, locked bootloader is bad.. After updating I didn't bother checking and installing Magisk, so I missed this.
[Android TV General] Functioner:
The dev options toggle is just disabled in android settings. But it doesn't matter, because the userspace side code for this toggle isn't fully implemented.

As mentioned above, a dopinder device that was unlocked before the ota remained unlocked after the ota.

If your device can't be unlocked using fastboot, most likely the unlock_ability bit is 0. It can be changed to 1 using a "burn mode" connection and the command line host side tool.

I don't have a remote with firmware version lower than V2.18 in order to debug this.

com.google.android.tv.dfuservice is the app that provides the notification and updates the remote firmware. If a paired remote (that has a lower firmware version) is unpaired and repaired anew, the dfuservice app should provide an instant notification that a remote control firmware update is available. if it does not work this way, perhaps the version value that triggers the notification is higher than it should be.
[Android TV General] killer23d:
How about do I do this?

Also, how are you able to have a remote higher? I thought those are managed by the OTA firmware sent by the box?
[Android TV General] Functioner:
I just grabbed the closest onn remote that I had on my bench. It might be a remote that came with one of the new 2023 onn devices (YOC or XNA). But other users have reported that their original dopinder onn remote was updated after the ota was installed.

Post whatever error message that you're getting from fastboot in order to confirm that the unlock_ability bit is in fact the issue.
