Flicker Vertigo, observed in helicopters with overhead view ports. That's why you seem some painted over.

Flicker vertigo - Wikipedia

en.m.wikipedia.org

To eliminate the flicker designers use current modulation. Some of newer phones give you that option.

So this apk is "back filling" the dimmer areas or vice versa?

Hi, its been a month since started using Miui. My poco x3 pro has audio issues which some times plays audio louder and sometimes very low .. this variation happens frequently .. this happens even in call on speaker phone... don't know what is the problem . Someone please help me
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] eharada:
Sound Assistant for individual apps is on?

Open Settings and go to Sound & Vibration.

Tap on Sound Assistant and make sure it's turned on for individual apps

To trigger Sound Assistant, press volume up/down button

A round blue music icon will appear on the left side, tap on it, and adjust the volume for each individual app

It looks like this ... I think
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] nan1712:
Thanks for your reply @eharada ! But I have Audio level variation within the same app..
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] trambolique:
I had a similar problem. I was listening to music and suddenly the audio was louder so I had to lower the volume and sometimes I had to increase the volume. It was very annoying

I realized the problem was triggered by the app Telegram, when you send a message it has a sound effect and that sound effect made the volume to go up and down.

Anyways I resolved the problem by going to settings - sound & vibration - sound assistant - and check "multiple audio sources"
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] xAxB:
I am looking for a phone to replace my rooted S5. One of the candidate is a second hand S10.

It is crucial that I am able to root the phone, and I was wondering how tricky the process is on this phone, and whether there are models where it might be impossible (perhaps Snapdragon based?), or if the baseband is above a certain version, or anything there are anything else that might impede the process I should pay attention to.

If anyone has successfully rooted their device in 2021 (ideally recently), please let me know.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] schwinn8:
A few fellow XDAers have done this recently. I assume you're speaking about a Snapdragon phone, which is where it gets tricky. The process requires payment to someone to perform the actual unlock... there are two providers (that I know of) that offer this service.

For the device, the bootloader revision is what's important - it needs to be old enough to allow this to work. In addition, once unlocked, it must REMAIN on this older bootloader otherwise you lose root. I believe you must be on BLv4 or older, which means it cannot be updated past Februrary of this year. The 5th character in the PDA/Phone build number (a number) from the right is what shows this version. For example, the March update for Verizon on the SM-G975U is G975USQU5GUBH, so that "5" means it's BL5.

My recent purchased phones were 5 and 6. I'm giving up on getting root, as I don't need it anymore. Sure, I'd prefer to have it, but it's getting too difficult and expensive to get it and I don't NEED it...

The two unlock providers I know about can be seen here (I have used neither myself, of course):

[CLOSED][Android][UNSAMLOCK] Bootloader Unlock for Samsung US/Canada Devices

Important notice: If you are already updated post February 2021, do not update to April 2023 security update (XXXXXXXXXXWCX) or later. Examples: G998USQS6EWCA, N986USQU4HWD1. Samsung has patched the bootloader unlock again on those updates...

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] xAxB:
Thanks. Does the Bootloader 5 restriction also applies on Exynos devices? I am uessing that might be why I had difficulties my recently purchased Tab S4.

Another question, can a bootloader be updated while the OS stays on an older version, or do they usually get updated together? For instance, if I find a phone that is still on Pie, is it likely be on an older baseband, or can a phone be on Pie AND be on a new baseband?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] schwinn8:
I don't know much about Exynos systems, but from what I gather they may be "normally rootable"... I don't believe there are as many restrictions on that platform (it seems to be a USA/EU thing to prevent rooting, primarily).

BL and OS seem to get upgraded together, generally speaking.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] supertac:
nope- those can be unlocked whenever

they still can't be downgraded though damn...

I have both phones...snapdragon IS slightly better
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sensboston:
Fire OS doesn't support Russian (or any Cyrillic-based language), and Amazon, for the strange reason, used stripped/limited "standard" Android fonts shipped with Fire HD.

My favorite ebook reader (FBReader) renders Russian ebooks using some weird Cyrillic font (not a standard Serif).

So, my question is: how to install my own/custom fonts on Fire HD 10?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AmznUser444 Dev:

Thanks! But that was my mistake, sorry. Fire OS fonts do support Cyrillic (it's a full featured fonts, my assumptions was wrong), but the book I reading was in epub format (not fb2), and FBReader has different settings for epub reading. After adjusting settings, I've achieve my goals :D

I have question, Can I relock bootloader after flash Global rom? There any problem? as like stuck in boot or brick device.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] LR7875:
No. If you have a china rom and you flashed global rom or xiaomi.eu rom, you will find yourself in a screen 'System is destroyed' and only service centers are able to fix that.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] himuscientist:
I mean after successfully flash unable to relock? Leave its unlock forever?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] chistery:
If you have a global phone with different global firmware, yes. if you have a China phone with a Global firmware, no.

So what firmware was originally on your phone?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] himuscientist:
Thanks for clarification and replied. My phone CN origin and CN rom but I want to flash its global rom and relock agian bootloader for safety .
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] chistery:
Then no, you have to leave it unlocked or you will brick it. Good luck!

Last one question please If I flash via official global rom do I get update automatically ?

Hi ccl2003,

It is not depending on the global or mi11. This 'feature' I had already under lineage and my mi6. I have two way authentication via sms on many services and you are right it's annoying but I have no solution, I Always wait and after timeout resend.

Take care

Thanks for the reply. Couldn't open my Facebook account now because the two-factor authentication is tied up with my Mobile number. Too bad this has become such an issue when I never had the same issue on my previous phone, Poco F3.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Helhound0:
I'm looking to upgrade to the Note 10 Pro from my Note 8 Pro.

One of the main reasons why i don't like running a custom ROM in my Begonia (Note 8 Pro) is the fact that i loose a bunch of Camera features and even the ability to use the macro lens.

The devs in the Begonia thread and us Beta testers have risked our devices and had spent an unreasonable amount of time on getting custom ROM's running and to make much of the features functional in that device. But i know since this one has a Snapdragon processor, much of the resources needed to port features from other devices to this is already there.

I know the advantages of running a custom ROM. But i would like it if someone explains to me

what device-specific OEM features that you are not able to use once you flash a custom ROM in the Note 10 Pro?

Appreciate the feedback!
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] LeDiable:
1) cRDroid (has Mi CAM too)

2) ArrowOS

3) DroidOnTime

what device-specific OEM features that you are not able to use once you flash a custom ROM in the Note 10 Pro?

Not sure, don't use too many frills that it has. For 1, I think the IR blaster might not work. Not sure though.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] spacexgen:
In RN10Pro, I have tested stock rom and other AOSP based custom rom, i found MIUI camera app capabilities is missing feature in all other custom ROM, I missed turbo charging feature in some custom rom also.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] spacexgen:
You can download Mi Remote controller app from Play Store for IR blaster and its working fine
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] sarychev.rescue:
Don't take adventure on your ass.

Indonesia ROM and you will be happy.

In terms of speed, smoothness and lack of problems, nothing beats this firmware.

And the camera is pretty good. Well, if it is infused correctly. ;)

Good luck.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] dnana9:
This is my first MIUI based phone and I bought it as a secondary device to only to flash a custom ROM.

I tried the latest Pixel Experience Plus (Aug 22 initial OSS build) and it I couldn't be happier (Well, maybe a bit if I could get a 108MP mode in GCam). The performance and battery life are fantastic. Not crash or moments of lag, stutters. So snappy, way better than MIUI.

GCam is working for Regular 12MP, wide angle, tele macro and portrait. The night shots are better than on stock. In case you need a 108MP mode, there is ANX camera. The quality might not match the stock 108MP, but it's a usable option. The selfies are also bright unlike GCam, though GCam has way more detail in the selfies than ANX or even stock.

I'm going to test Crdoid or dotOS soon to see what a degoogled experience is like, but I reckon it is going to be similar to PE+. PE+ has set a benchmark for me.

Also, a couple of bugs I've noticed on PE+ which might or might not stay with other ROMs is:

1. Auto brightness is a bit off and goes lower or higher than it should at times.

2. The front cam was crashing when I turned on face unlock. But because I prefer the fingerprint scanner, turned it off and no issues since then.

3. Features like AOD and Pocket mode have been known to be battery hogs, but I don't use them anyway.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Kirasu2080:
Give you some information. Xiaomi released A11 kernel for begonia a few days and camera problems (maybe) can be fixed, wait for next custom rom A11 based before get new rmn10p.

And custom use ANX and Gcam, some problems maybe same with other device not only rmn8p.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] lubo777:

[Redmi Note 10 Pro] kadimatr:

[Redmi Note 10 Pro] lubo777:
Right now I'm testing few different Camera apps, ANXCamera + many differenet GCam MODS.

I'm looking for the best GCam MOD ... I think that I have found it! :)

The ANX Camera quality is the same as the stock MIUI camera ... have made a lot of test of both and have to say that ANX isn't bad at all!

You can see all my test and findings in this GCam Mods for Redmi Note 10 Pro tread here.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] dnana9:
I'm on it since yesterday :)
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] kadimatr:
Thank you, i will try :)
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Helhound0:
I decided to buy the phone and see after reading all your thoughts. I specially want to see if the high refresh rate works well with an AOSP ROM too because that's one of the main parts of the phone that i want to take advantage of. And I would be happy as @dnana9 mentioned if there's options for me to take advantage of all the lenses. Lets see how it goes.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] dnana9:
You won't regret it. I have been hopping from stock to Pixel Experience to Xiaomi.EU to AOSP Extended, and every ROM has minor quirks, but overall better than stock MIUI. And beteeen the 5-10 options you have, you should find the sweet spot.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] lubo777:
Haven't tested other AOSP ROMs than the AOSP Extended but have tested few MIUI based one and have to say that AOSP Extended is super truper fast! :)

I'm using the same ROM on my other phone Redmi Note 7 and the ROM there is also so fast and smooth as a pretty new car from Tesla ... :) :) :)
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] opg2000:
....I also like the Indonesia ROM. But what do you mean "...if it is infused correctly..."
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ssndk:
So it's been a month since I got my HTC Touch pro and all the problems I have with it, I've had with the HTC TYTN II. To list them:

- Volume is too low during conversations, it has to be fairly quiet around to be able to hear the other person (even with the volume turned way up)

- There's a 2-3 ring delay on incoming calls.. which means people hang up before you get a chance to answer.

- Sometimes trying to call a number, the phone will just display the Calling Number screen and you hear no sound at all in the speaker.. then after 10 seconds it will end with 3 beeps.. Like it couldn't get a signal or something, even though there's plenty of signal on the signal gauge. You try again 2-3 times before it works.. REALLY annoying (Never had a phone that did that, other than the TYTN II!)

- Answers calls in pocket. You go for the phone, but the touch screen is on and you answer or hang up (in my case apparently almost always hangs up) while the phone is still in your pocket. Also VERY annoying.

- Alarm or snooze malfunctions. This happens rarely for me, but since I use it everyday as my alarm for waking up, I notice! It's not because I sleep past the alarm. I've been lying awake listening for it to ring... the vibrator works, but no sound is played. This means that I can't trust my phone to wake me up if I'm going to catch a plane or other important stuff. It's very rare, but it happens.. it also did on my TYTN II, except that didn't even vibrate! My guess is windows is busy doing something else .. then doesn't play the sound properly.

- Then there's the slowdowns.. not really a fault, but like windows 95 it can become very slow or unresponsive for a short period for unknown reasons. A phone has to work when you need it... not delay you for 30 secs while it thinks things over. I've had to reset my phone a couple of times this month. (No I didn't run 10 apps at the same time while trying to use TF3D to look at pictures)

- It takes 4 seconds to lock the phone (So that it doesn't also MAKE calls in your pocket) .. is there a way to tweak this? Like only pressing the off-hook button for 1-2 seconds instead?

These problems are the reasons that I'm considering selling my phone to some other unfortunate person. They are BASIC functions that just have to work! I love the HTC touch pro for it's PDA functionality and my Tom Tom maps etc. but I'm really starting to hate it for these basic functionalities that work very poorly!

I know other people have experience the same problems.. couldn't we make a sticky with problems and possible solutions for it? I also really hate that fact that I have to hack my phone in able to make it function properly!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] joeltje:
Tweaks enough around

I don't have that problem?

never had that either

try this solution

Did you try a different alarm already?

Don't have that problem

Now you mention it, yes, that is annoying... Would love to see a tweak for that as well!!

Have you considerd a custom Rom yet? I am currently running the DCS Rom, and don't have the problems you mention above. It made my TP much more responsive!

A lot of these problems though, are mentioned throughout this forum, and can be solved. Either by ROM updating, or tweaks... What Rom are you running?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] th1nm1nt:
I understand completely. I feel differently though. My TP is the best phone ever. The issues I have were seen on my previous devices (HTC devices for the US). The faster processor, increased storage, and TF3D make me happy. Don't get me wrong, I have cussed at this phone, missed inportant business calls, and missed a flight thanks to the alarm. I soft reset 1 - 5 times a day to proactively minimize these issues. But overall, the TP is a huge improvement over my Wing. So long as my new devices are improvements to the one before, I am happy. I can't live with a standard cell phone, and love my Raphael.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ssndk:
Try calling your phone from a land line phone.. how long does it take before your cell actually start ringing?

Yes, but it happens so rarely I can't say if its the sound. Besides, it's the rooster sound that came with phone. No matter what it should never happen. It happened on my TYTN II too.. So I guess it's probably a windows thing.

Hmm.. I might try that.. but I often see people start having entirely different problems with their phone then (lock ups and strange behaviour). If there is a stable ROM that fixes these issues and doesn't break down hard once every week. I'm all for it!

I'm running the standard ROM that came with the phone. Ver.: 1.90.403.6 DAN (Danish) ROM date 08/23/08, Radio: 1.02.25.19, Protocol: 52.33.25.17U
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] joeltje:
If I call my cellnr. from the home phone, it starts ringning as quickly as all my other mobile phones... So no, I really don't have that problem, thoughj I did just see another topic from somebody with exactly you problem: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=432415

You might want to follow that.

On the alarm, I have 2 kids, so I don't use an electrical alarm :D Sorry...

The different ROM may be something you can test at least. It fixed a lot of annoyances for me anyway. Look in the Wiki for different Custom Roms, there are a couple out there, and for me, DCS worked best. You can always go back to original, should you not like the ROM. I'm running DCS now for three days, no resets, and it is still fast....
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] willbeh:
The issue above really annoying. Normally that will cause my TP to go mute and can't hear each other. Have to soft reset. This issue is discuss in another thread here. Since I'm overseas for at the moment, can't go complain to my vendor.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ssndk:
Using the registry hack for the touch diamond I'm now using the "lock on backlight turned off" fix.. it works, and my phone locks when I press the screen off button. Way less annoying than waiting 4 seconds for it to lock.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\BackLight\AutoDevic eLockEnable from 0 to 1 and everytime your backlight goes off the device is locked
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] joeltje:
Nice, 1 Question though; What happens if you make a call? The display goes of as well then, will the keyboard then lock as well? Cause that's not handy, to say the least :p
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ssndk:
The touch screen locks, but the keyboard (Off-hook etc.) button doesn't..
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] joeltje:
So if I'm listning to my voicemail, and need to press "3" for deletion, I can't? Or will it disable after I extract my stylo?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] topspeclt:
you can extract the stylus but the you have to juggle around with it OR you can press the standby button on top to unlock it. It's a pain I know but the problem is that it is a touch screen so pressing a button to unlock is less worse than without it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] joeltje:
So functionality actually remains as it is now... That's good, I'll give it a try!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ssndk:
It unlocks when the stylus is extracted..
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] justin0679@gmail.com:
Sounds like you are using a ringtone from your microSD card. This will cause a delay. Your ringtones need to be copies to your device and activated by holding the stylus over your selection & hit set as ringtone.

Hope this helps,

Rgs,

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] hopper13:
Try SensorLock. It's a great little utility that unfortunately has stopped working for me. Must be something I poked somewhere. lol

As for the alarm, mine works fine... but I do notice the ringing a couple of times on the sending end before the phone starts to ring. I'd sort of passed that off to a network thing, not a phone thing.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] bugsykoosh:
The 3 second ringtone delay is a WM issue. Look at the postings for VAlert in the general hacking section. The only known fix is http://www.tweaks2k2.com/portal/staticpages/index.php?page=20050224182009983

but no one seems to have figured out their registry setting change...

TRY G-Alarm. It works well for me.

Klaxon (sp?) alarm looked cool and would have also been practical, but it would crash - totally unreliable.
