[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] GarlicBreadFox:
Do you guys think it will be possible to support the pen on custom ROMs? How does that work normally, is it some drivers that need to be installed, or would functionality be at a very low level such that with custom ROMs it wouldn't be possible or...?

By custom ROMs I mean Pixel Experience etc, not the Xiaomi EU MIUI crap.
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] tmuehlha:
There isnt any custom ROM for this device
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] chr0nic_flashr:
The smart pen nor keyboard cover work with Treble GSI ROMs. The smart pen can be paired to a tablet running GSI, but no response from the tablet's display when using the pen. I'm guessing there is something in the MIUI ROMs for this tablet that allow allow the tablet and pen to work together (may be in all MIUI ROMS).
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] lamjiidii1:
Hi, it's possible
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] neil_r:
I was wondering the same thing as well...

Really hope good ROMs are coming soon, the software experience is awful rn

Oh wow that's exactly the one I was waiting for, I just thought lt wasn't available yet since it wasn't listed on the pixel experience website !

Does it work well with this device ?
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] mikefnz:
Daily driver for me. I tried PE12 but it was too buggy. Follow instructions to fix sound stutter, Bluetooth and 120 Hz.

Did you manage to get the pen working ? :D

I don't have a pen, yet.
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] UmiCat:
No, the pen doesn't work on PE11 GSI or any other GSIs I tried. It's a real shame. Still for me PE11 is much better than MIUI.

Hi

If anyone here is really interested in getting custom ROMs for this tablet, I can try with you guys and hopefully I can get at least TWRP running.

[Shield Android Development] itsjoots:
Hello! I've recently just snagged a fully functioning Tegra X1-Powered Nvidia Shield Portable 2 that's rooted. I'm trying to extract the partitions so that I can make backups of the bootloader (to flash with nvflash), system, boot, recovery, etc images for other X1-Powered Shield 2 owners for unbricking purposes, as there aren't any recovery images posted online.

Does anyone know which fastboot/adb commands could achieve this? Here is what the partition scheme looks like but I have no clue which partition is which. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!
[Shield Android Development] itsjoots:
so i just made an interesting find as to which partition is which

i ran

ls -l /dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/

and then ran

cat fstab.loki_e_lte

and now i think i know which partition needs to be extracted for each image. refer to screenshot for context

so it seems

mmcblk0p19 > system.img

mmcblk0p20 > cache.img

mmcblk0p18 > boot.img

mmcblk0p22 > misc.img

mmcblk0p23 > staging.img

mmcblk0p16 > recovery.img
[Shield Android Development] itsjoots:
i have extracted the images for recovery but i have not tested these. also currently working on figuring out how to extract the bootloader so i can have a *complete* system recovery for those even without a bootloader; if anyone knows how, i'm all ears.

i do not recommend flashing these on a non-bricked shield but someone with a bricked X1 powered shield feel free to test and let me know how it goes <3 flashing instructions are included in the folder too.

[Touch Cruise ROM Development] silalaval:
Hi!

Has anyone tried both? Which is is better? Syrius has some bugs which I can live with...

Thank you for the feedback
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] ady_uaic:
nice topic. we shall se bad things and good things for each rom.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] dwaradzyn:
Why don't you try them both - you will have the best answer you can get. Asking which ROM is better is a nasty way to pollute this forum. Please read HELP for NEW GUYS.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] itje:
thx

was planning to write the same, but decided not to :)
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] silalaval:
It is not my intention to pollute anything. I just though it could be useful to read to good and the bad of each ROM by informed people like you.

Personally I like to read reviews and also to add things to them...

Syrius is a GREAT ROM but has some bugs. Wouldnt you be happy to read if the alternative ROM has the same bugs before you loose one hour of your time flashing the ROM, uploading stufff etc?
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] dwaradzyn:
If you do not want to pollute you should read threads related each of these ROMs and make up your mind.

If you decide to try some ROM you could leave your opinion (if you have something new to say) about it in appropriate thread. That way if someone will want to know pros and cons about those ROMs they will easily find it.

I don't want to be harsh but if we keep these forums as clean as possible they will be more useful for everyone.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] silalaval:
Ok.. Syrius R0 has about 90 pages of posts.. and you speak to me about pollution?

Your advice is for reader who barely know how to flash their devices to read 90 pages of posts, some of them being just " :-) " "Great" etc... and you feel uncorfortable with a topic were people compare real bugs.

Opal doesnt even have a feature list...

Anyway, please close this topic... I have read most of the 90 pages of the Syrius posts and am well aware of its bugs.

I also would like for keeping this forum up and let us use all the information provided. I truly thank you all! :-):):)
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] dwaradzyn:
Think about it a second. You could not reach the info you wanted because of polluted thread. You tried to solve your problem by creating one more unnecessary thread. Is this the correct way to make the information easily accessible? Is this the way you would like this forum to look like? It is already in horrible state now, please do not make it even worse for all of us.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] silalaval:
I Agree.. can some Admin close or delete this topic?
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] silalaval:
BTW.. has anyone knows the answer to my question in

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=433416

Thanks
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] mano42:
Actually @silaval is right, why should we read hundreds of "great" and "thanx" postings to find out some real oppinions, instead of creating a new thread , a tehnical one? I don't say it is a good ideea to open new threads when a previous one gets polluted with nonsense posts, but forum amins should give more moderating rights for the ones who really contribute to those threads (chefs, rom makers, SERIOUS beta testers like @batista70, @NeoS2007, @ravest etc) to keep clean this forum. I am moderator in some gsm repairing related forums and the thing I hate most is the pollution with nonsense "thanx" messages. Posters, if you wanna contribute with feedback, do it, if you can't than donate, othervise shut up, but don't post just for the sake of posting, or to increase post count, it doesn't helps!

BR

mano

ps: maybe admins should consider to update forum's vbb script, and give us a "THANX" button, this way threads would be much clearer.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] m.schmidler:
silaval is absolutely right, its not the same thing if a board is polluted or a thread. Just think further guys, the REALLY important topics are either sticky or are nearly always on top of the first page, cause people post into them so much. So, I agree with you, avoiding unnecessary threads is a good thing - but the problem with "thank you" posts is a MUCH bigger problem.

@mano42: I second that, hopefully admins will integrate that feature, would save aprox. 50 posts / ROM thread.

regards,

Martin
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] HardRoc:
Way to kill a possibly informative thread guys...he asked a very practical question. Both of these ROMs come from different sources and have pretty different pros and cons and both release posts have a ton of filler so it's difficult to see possible bugs in the ROM. Instead of berating him for 4 or 5 posts, how about you just weigh in on the topic at hand? The only other alternative should be to ignore the post and let it drop down the list of posts.

To answer his question, I find the bugs in Syrius R0 to not be too bad and the things added make it one of the fastest/lightest ROMs I've used on a HTC device. Since R1 was just released, it should be a moot point now as most of those bugs have been quashed.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] Nehel:
Guess you'll have to wait a bit for any answers since R1 just came out :O
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] Merel469:
I can't find how to export all contacts to PC. The user manual is just childish stupid !

This must include all data (Name, phone numbers, etc)

Must I connect the device to a usb port or wifi and upload to cloud ?

Are they located on simcard or somewhere inside the device ?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] Alrich:
1: Open Contacts app separately. (Not through dialer.)

2: Press 3 dots top right.

3: Select All

4: Click the share button.

5: From there you can choose to share it or save it locally on your phone which can then be copied to PC.

All contacts will be condensed into one .vcf file which is recognised by all phones.

All the best.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] Merel469:
Thank you Alrich

After creating the vcf file:

I see the share icon. The wanted choice for me would be to send that file to the PC.

The Poco X3 NFC is usb connected to my pc with function file transfer allowed.

On the Poco screen I assume that the 'monitor' icon is the symbol for local pc ?

Clicking that option opens right away the app Casten which is asking access (3 options shown).

This app seems to be mandatory. I would have expected instantaneous copy operation instead of again another app authorization.

So far so good. But what to do with issue ‘Casten' ?

Even when going in this application settings and allowing 'location' I keep turning in a loop.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] Noter2017:
Can't you simply send the file to your email account and then download it on your PC?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] Merel469:
I now try #4 (sharing with my gmail account).

The process shows a large spinning wheel and above a text Informatie controleren ... (Dutch). This seems to spin for ever.

By the way, I will change the language to English, for the purpose of reporting exactly what appears on screen..
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] Merel469:
At #3

I made a faulty assumption. The 'screen' icon is not for pc sharing. It seems to be for sharing the vcf file on screens ! What the hell has "exporting contacts" to do with sharing screens. Very confusing.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] Noter2017:
No idea what that might be. Maybe you have many contacts.

You can also try this:

Contacts - Share

And then select a file manager app. That way you can simply save the vcf file on your phone.

Then connect your phone to your PC and then copy the vcf file over
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] Merel469:
Meanwhile I managed to store Contacts on my PC.

But first, let me tell what NOT to do : Exporting to merged CSV file would be ok, if Excel would open that in a usual view. That however is not the case because Excel shows a useless scrambled view mixing all commas and data.

I found a free software that converts the csv file to another file that shows a normal view in Excel. Download from SourceForge https://sourceforge.net/projects/bulkvcftocsv/

Using that software Excel opens all Contacts as a normal sheet. This is easy to edit.

I assume that it can be used to import in iPhone devices.

No need to export contacts to pc via Google account, but you might like to do that also.

I do not know if there is any other easier method. Eventually why make things too simple if there is a more difficult way ? :mad:
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] Merel469:
#7 came was read after my fix described in #8. I might like to try it later
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] pnin:
Possible cause: CSV standard is Comma Separated Values; in my experience and unless properly configured, Excel expects Colon Separated Values...

Are you using any Safetynet Fixes? I'm assuming you are.. As September + this MOD works great for me. As I mentioned to your previous post in his thread though I did remove the SN stuff from Typhus_ MOD..

The MOD from Typhus_ has an old SN fix baked in and will most likely be causing the bootloop.

Or you can always grab a logcat and Typhus_ may be kind enough to look at it.

Did anyone else get overcharged by the amount of their trade-in devices by Verizon when pre-ordering? My wife and I both pre-ordered fold 3's and traded in our devices. I was charged a certain amount in store, but then when I was emailed my receipt and checked my bank draft it was $1,000 more than I was charged in store. I've called numerous times and made numerous complaints with no help. Anyone else had to go through this?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] KOLIOSIS:
IDK if the terms of the trade-in offer have changed since you made your purchase, but, it appears that any trade-in value is paid out via bill credits over a 24 or 30 month span.

That's how T-Mobile's trade-in program works & I'm guessing VZW is no different in that regard.

[MTCD Android Head Units General] dunne’d:
Hi there,

I purchased a PX6 for my 2009 Honda Civic last June and I’ve been having issues ever since I bought it.

The screen is generally heavily distorted, making the graphics look washed out and strangely warped. Occasionally, it will correct itself and look normal but it usually takes a bit of warming up/driving to correct it. Audio through CarPlay will frequently stop playing which only returns when I switch to the radio for an extended period of time. My back camera is also intermittent.

I’m starting to think it may be a power issue? I’ve also noticed certain lights in my car often don’t light up. The gearstick, AC buttons etc. I tested the battery I installed in my car, which came to 12.86 volts. Since updating the HMC a couple days back, I noticed it now displays the battery output in the menu bar. In the image attached, it’s showing 14 volts in the menu bar and when the screen randomly works correctly, the voltage is at around 13 volts. However, this is not conclusive evidence - as I’ve only just updated the software.

If anyone could please advise, I’d greatly appreciate your help.

Thanks,

Danny.

Hi Guys! Developer of Energy Ring and Access Dots here, here to release a brand new App I have been working on - Media Bar!​

You can now quickly jump to a specific segment or forward/backward in steps of your song/podcast/video. Watching a long movie/podcast? Media Bar can be color coded to tell you the progress of the playback. Example:- Green Media Bar till 75% of the podcast, and it turns red till 100%.

Media Bar also has 3 invisible buttons that can be assigned to perform specific actions upon single tap, double tap and long press. The buttons touch regions can be customized as well.

Accessibility Service Requirement:

Android requires Energy Bar to run as an Accessibility Service, to be able to display on Lock Screen. It does not read/monitor any data, whatsoever. This is especially useful for people who have disability to read numbers and work better with visual data.

No charging animation? Solution for Samsung devices

Settings > Accessibility > Visibility enhancements > Remove Animations > uncheck if it's checked.

Does anyone know of a solution where I can plug my phone in, play music on the car stereo and then make/take calls?

Would be nice if it was all integrated - i.e. that the stereo would pause or so when I'm on the phone, and the phone goes through the stereo speakers etc.

Need to get a new stereo anyway, so need the whole lot!

This is not a new stereo but works perfect for me. look up the Motorola t505. It is bluetooth handsfree and transmits wirelessly to your car stereo with built in fm transmitter. very strong fm transmitter. Music streamed to car stereo will paus when you make or get a call and the call even comes through the car stereo. Battery is very good too. Google it
[General Accessories] fergusstrachan:
That looks quite a decent solution, thanks hotrod.

I'm a little suspicious of BT though generally, not least because of my succession of HTC devices. I wonder if there's anything that just plugs in using old fashioned wires. :-)
