To all,

I guess you have all noticed how much spam we have been getting recently in this forum (especially in the D&H section). Most of us are all too familiar with the current events of the site to fall for scams of any kind. However, there is a tremendous influx of new members to the community who have no clue of what is going on, which makes them good targets for these. I have personally never clicked on any of them, but anything could be on the other side of those links.

It seems that spammers are getting a little smarter as of today. I have already seen two new threads being opened with titles of current events (the latest being "Manila 2D Customizer"). Most of us here at XDA are fast when it comes to reporting this kind of threads and the mods are fairly swift to take them out, but they keep on coming.

So, if you are uncertain of a thread (specifically if it has a link and barely any writing or posts), do not click as it is probably not from a trusted source. The best thing to do is to click on the red and white warning sign at the top right corner of the post and report it. This will help keep the forums clean (and you clean of possible viruses).

@Mods: I know it isn't exactly D&H material, but I figured we could make it a sticky to warn noobs. Maybe even copying this on other sections as well might not be a bad idea.

LONG LIVE XDA!!!

Currently, the best thing is to press located in the upper right of each post. By pressing this, you send an email to all moderators at which time, once recieved, we will respond as quickly as possible.

Thx Very Much

Thx Very Much
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Whosdaman:
Pfft....yea that's smart, call the people noobs that will make them read it

Why not put, Everyone MUST Read!!!?

Because I know senior members that spam as well, not just "noobs"
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] egzthunder1:
Why don't you read before talking??? This thread is about awareness of actual spam as in "people trying to do phishing in our forum" spam and not "people opening new threads spam"...

The reason why I directed this to new members (noobs) was because they are not so aware of which the real threads are and which ones aren't. Like I said, please read before complaining. Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Nerdino:
Ha ha ha hah! Says the man with the website link in his sig. ;)

Anyway, good post to bring to everyone's attention I think as we can all do our bit to help eliminate the spamming - by reporting it the moment we see it. Good work moderators, hope it doesn't take up too much of your precious time!

It is never too much to get people attention to these matters,

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Stroker396:
I don't recall when I registered if you have the "no spam" set up or not. But I have a Vbulletin forum and once the spammers found it I started getting all kinds of junk, as soon as I instituted that they disappeared.

Or are you talking about spam of the human kind (as opposed to bots)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] egzthunder1:
It seems that it has been gradually disappearing, but here is the run down. Spammers (I believe human) were opening threads all over the forum with links to God only know what (never clicked on them for obvious reasons). The biggest problem is that the threads started becoming more ingenious with subjects such as "M2D New Version" or things that are related to the site. That is why I opened this thread, to raise awareness among new members of the forum to be careful and to let them know that they should check things twice to ensure that they are getting the real thing.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] witch1:
I fell for one a while back. The best thing is to use the search function, for me, and only click a link if its recommended by, at the least, by a member that most seem to know or a senior member.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mendhak:
I'm sure vBulletin comes with a moderation-queue feature... any new posts by members with 0-5 posts have to be read and validated by moderators before appearing to 'the public'. Worthwhile?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] egzthunder1:
Maybe, but the only problem is that you would need an army of mods monitoring at all times. This site gets too many new members each day. Besides, the spam posts that I was referring to were opened by "users" that posted the same thing so many times that they actually got about 6-10 posts under their belt.

Good suggestion though...

Hello Guys,

im searching a Android Head Unit for my Golf 7

Max. 400€

I need one that is mostly plug and play and works well with my Golf 7.

I am currently interested in the following:

- Teyes CC3

- Junsun V1 Pro/V3 Pro

- Dynavin DX-V-3B Flex

I hope you guys can help me.

[Android Head-Units] ExtremeMOD:
Might wanna read this before you buy:

https://extrememod.co.uk/blog/f/android-head-unit-vs-android-auto-vs-bluetooth-stereo
[Android Head-Units] mr.asmiai:
I swear I've read the whole article and still have no idea which device to buy.

Can you recommend one?

One that works best with VW Golf 7 and ist mostly plug and play?

PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEE
[Android Head-Units] ExtremeMOD:
Sorry to hear that. So let's start with some basic questions:

What are you going to use the Head Unit for primarily? Is it high quality music? Navigation? Handsfree calling? Internet? YouTube? Spotify? Put these things and any other areas of usage in priorities, starting from what is most important. Also are you planning to use Android Phone or iPhone in the car?

Do you have any external car audio equipment that you are planning to use or will the Head Unit be the all-in-one entertainment device in the car?

You mentioned "Plug'n'Play" - have you considered going with Android Auto instead? Android Head Units require tweaking to perform well

This should be a good start.
[Android Head-Units] mr.asmiai:
Thank you for wanting to help me.

I really appreciate that.

1.)

- Navigation

- Handsfree calling

- Spotify

- Music

- Youtube

- Internet

2.)

I have no external Audio Equipment.

I just use Bluetooth for Music.

3.)

The problem is that I would have to use my own mobile phone with Android Auto.

I want to be independent from my cell phone.
[Android Head-Units] ExtremeMOD:
Okay that helps. So then are you looking to have 4G support on the head unit so you can put a sim card in?

Also how good are your speakers? Do you have a subwoofer?
[Android Head-Units] mr.asmiai:
Yes that would me very nice.
[Android Head-Units] ExtremeMOD:
Okay, in that case I would recommend a Qualcomm SnapDragon unit as it requires little to no tweaking. Product link

Pick the one like in the picture:

View attachment 5426223
[Android Head-Units] mr.asmiai:
By the way i have no subwoofer just the oem speakers.

Is this unit better than the Teyes CC3?
[Android Head-Units] ExtremeMOD:
Teyes CC3 is a great unit, no doubt but you said you wanted "plug'n'play" so I took that into account. Teyes CC3 becomes great once you install modified firmware and perform quite a few tweaks that require more than average knowledge of Android.

Teyes CC3 is a great choice for audiophiles (i.e those with expensive car audio equipment) and those with high level of knowledge of modding Android systems.
[Android Head-Units] mr.asmiai:
Yes , plug and play is very importent for me.

I don't have the knowledge or the time to deal with the device a lot.

So is the Aainavi the best you would recommend?

Because then I would buy it.

I trust you :)
[Android Head-Units] ExtremeMOD:
I don't know the brand itself and would not recommend any specific sellers. I can only recommend what hardware to look for.

Knowing what hardware to get, it's easier to find the right product.

Before buying from AliExpress ‐ always ask to see the System Info screen.

On Qualcomm Snapdragon device, it'll look like this:

View attachment 5426621

Reason is that you don't want to end up with a fake product. Ask for this screenshot from whoever you plan to buy from and then share it here?
[Android Head-Units] mr.asmiai:
Do you maybe know another Qualcomm Device?

They only send from china and the taxes will kill me XD
[Android Head-Units] ExtremeMOD:
They will send it and put whatever value you tell them to avoid high taxes. Also it is well within your budget of €400, no? Where do you live?
[Android Head-Units] mr.asmiai:
I live in germany and i would pay easily more than 400€ for that device.
[Android Head-Units] ExtremeMOD:
I just checked. The total cost including 19% import tax would be €360.

View attachment 5426891
[Android Head-Units] mr.asmiai:
View attachment 5427011

I found a website that calculates the duty exactly.

It would cost almost € 400 with customs.

In terms of price, it would fit.

How do you actually like the Junsun V3 Pro?

It also has a Qualcomm processor.
[Android Head-Units] ExtremeMOD:
It's a good choice too.
[Android Head-Units] mr.asmiai:
For that amount of money i want the best choice

[Xiaomi Mi 10T / 10T Pro Questions & Answers] Klein.miqueias:
Hello Guys!

I'm having a problem after updating Mi 10t to the MIUI 12.5.5. The system don't let me to share files between apps anymore.

For example, when I try to send an audio from the original audio recorder of MIUI to WhatsApp It gives an error that's impossible to share the file.

The same happens with gallery an all other apps, I just can't share files between any apps, only with apps like Instagram or Telegram tha has its own files share interface.

I didn't find any thread about this error, so I'm thinking that this is happening only with me or with a small quantity of Mi 10t users.

I didn't want to reset my phone and I don't think it should sove the problem. Does anyone have any suggestions to solve this problem?

Remembering that my phone has the bootloader locked and isn't rooted.

Thanks!

[Moto G7 Plus Questions & Answers] Elrom:
Hello guys.

So, I recently bought a new phone and thought "let's try rooting my old one" and tried it on my G7+. I ended up not liking out it turned out (Netflix DRM, Vanced didn't work properly, etc).

So I reflashed the stock ROM and put the comand fastboot oem lock.

The thing is, after I boot the device again, all the messages still appear, like Your device has loaded a different operating system" and below that "ID: " (blank) and I also get "Verity mode is set to disable".

The thing is, every tutorial I come across to relock the bootloader(regular G7, G7 Power, G6, etc), says that when you enter the command "fastboot oem lock" two times, the message that you should only flash signed images, does not appear. I instantly get the state flashing_locked, and I can't continue flashing the stock firmware like every other tutorial shows.

In short, once you enter the command "fastboot oem lock", it's locked for good, and you can't do anything unless you unlock it again, starting the whole process again.

The problem is, even with the bootloader locked again, my device still shows as "insecure", Netflix is nowhere to be found on the app store, and the state of my device is not certified.

I wouldn't have unlocked If I knew it was going to be this difficult to get it back. Selling it now would be next to impossible.

Here are some examples of the errors I'm getting:

Does anyone know how to fix this?
[Moto G7 Plus Questions & Answers] MozzerW:
Did you ever get this sorted ? I have the same problem on my G7 Plus. I unlocked, then loaded Lineagos, but then decided to go back to stock, I used LMSA to rescue the phone, but still got the warning and boot time "Your phone has loaded a different OS" and I can't use GPay. I tried the fastboot OEM lock (worked) and fastboot flashing lock, but I still get the warning and I can't use GPay.

I think in my case the LMSA rescue didn't work because I was originally on Android 9 and the rescue took me straing to Android 10
[Moto G7 Plus Questions & Answers] Tiki Thorsen:
You can try downloading each versions from your region (RETUS, RETEU, etc) and retry the relock process until you find the correction version.

lolinet mirrors - firmware, software, iso etc.

[Moto G7 Plus Questions & Answers] goofdroid:
I have the same problem, I also tried different versions of the ROM from my region (EU).. Did you ever solve it?

I want to return my device (Moto G7 plus, lake) to stock OS and relock the bootloader, prior to giving it away (the person I'm giving will want banking apps to work without fiddling...)

I've reinstalled the stock OS using Motorola "Rescue and smart assistant". This works perfectly.

Now I want to re-lock the bootloader, to have banking apps work. But just running the command:

fastboot oem lock

...says it's locked, but now on boot there is a message "Your device has loaded a different operating system", followed by "verity mode is set to disabled", and the Safetynet test app reports "CTS profile match fail". All other permutations ("oem lock begin", "flashing lock") of the command command lead to the same thing. If I try fastboot flash the boot.img of the stock ROM after doing the "lock", I get "permission denied". And I can unlock again with "oem unlock" without needing the code from Motorola. On-screen it says "flashing_locked" whereas I believe it should say "oem_locked" (?)

How can I fully restore my device to stock, with properly locked bootloader, remove the message, and have banking apps work?
[Moto G7 Plus Questions & Answers] Tiki Thorsen:
As far as I know, you cannot properly lock the bootloader. I tried a couple of times but is futile, and you can brick the device if you are not careful.

The easist solution is to install the Custom ROM "Pixel Experience", which is very close to the stock android and it passes safety.net by out of the box, no fiddling needed. In other works, banking apps will work. (Tested it myself).

Hello dear community,

Unfortunately, my GTR 2e developed a strange "glitch" after I installed watchface themes from the zepp app. The "main screen" works normally, the setting and the quicksttingsbar work well, almost all other "views" are glitched and you can't see anything. I m posting pictures of it

I have already tried the following things without success:

1. Multiple factory reset

2. Hold the main button repeatedly for a long time and reboot

3. Uninstall the zepp app

4. All downloaded watch faces deleted

Can someone help me with the problem? Many thanks

[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] optimumpro:
The rom could be used on locked bootloader with ROOT (donate feature) with or without Gapps.

The benefits of LOCKED BOOTLOADER combined with WORKING AVB-2 protection are:

You get your DRM L1 back (one full stock update required). Many banking applications (tested several) will work even if Magisk is not hidden: you simply get a warning, your device is rooted, but can click 'don't show again' and proceed to login.

Nobody and nothing can modify Kernel, Recovery and Virtual Partitions without triggering a red screen of death with the message 'your device is corrupted and cannot boot'.

At that point, the only option is to unlock bootloader. But, if a user had previously disabled OEM unlock in Developer settings, then unlocking becomes unavailable, and so does flashing via fastboot. In other words, if your phone gets into the hands of an adversary, their only option is to use MSM tool to make the phone work again, but no access to your data or any other partition.

This is pretty much my thoughts on it too..

Before we got OOS ported it was a horrible situation jumping to custom ROMs, realising you're missing features then jumping back..

..I tried every single camera app out there.. none of them match up in regards to video and slow motion doesn't exist on any of them..

It's only annoying if you ever need it I suppose but when you do it'll stick with you.

But yea just having an option would be brilliant on any ROM tbh

[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] dlads:
I haven't installed this ROM yet mate..

But if there is indeed a system update option within the ROM then you can install that, don't reboot.

Open Magisk and click install after OTA.

Then reboot.

If there is not a system update option. Then I could only assume that you would have to use TWRP to dirty flash the ROM or perform a clean install by wiping data in TWRP then flashing the ROM.

If that fails then a format and installation although I would assume that the latter is overkill and only necessary if there's a major issue with your installation.
