Can anyone tell me where can buy the login? My phone was hard bricked (total black screen) after software update on a rollback europe flashed version from original China variant rom.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hassanaliyeh:
Edit:

SOLVED!!!!

finally figured out the issue, will share just for information as unlikely to happen with anyone else.

When i installed xiaomi.eu, i cannot remember which partition it was installed at, was it slot A or B. and when i flashed back to official rom, i left it by default.

This has messed up my partitions when i was back to official rom. so whenever i update my system, it would just fail all the time because it is over writing the booted partition.

dont know how, and dont ask me how i fixed it, all i can explain is the following:

checked on fastboot the slot and it was A. so i tried to change it to B and it didnt work with all available commands. So, i used TWRP to boot into fastboot slot B and installed fresh ROM 12.5.4. bootloader unlocked just to be safe. then updated and it went through without any issues.

i cannot explain what exactly happened and if what i did was correct and if my theory is correct, but it worked!!!!.

Thanks to everyone contact me and gave me any idea. :)

Hi All,

"Couldn't update Miui"

"download rom and try updating again"

i have an issue with my device, it all started after i install eu rom and then flashed back original rom and locked bootloader.

i was on 12.5.2 when i unlocked bootloader the first time, and install eu. version. tried it for a week, and it was really bad. so i switched back to original rom 12.5.4 when it was released and locked bootloader, after that, since then, i was not able to update my device to the following roms. i tried the first time 12.5.6 and it didnt go through when device rebooted. as deviced auto restarted for a few times, (it boot to miui logo for 3 sec's then blink green then restart, happens for a few times like 6-10 times) then device reboots back to version before update but really really really slow.

in the begining, i thought it was faulty update, but i found that several people did it successfully,

Then i thought they have their bootloader unlock and 12.5.6 was a beta version, so that was the reason, until stable 12.5.7 showed up. so i've unlocked bootloader and updated, same issue.

Then i thought, maybe 12.5.4 version downloaded is corrupt somehow, so i've installed 12.5.2 and updated, failed again. same result.

all all cases above, i tried locked and unlocked bootloader and i still get green blinking a few times then a very slow version before update.

Anyone familiar with this case? i really need your help.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hungragezone:
Your device original rom is?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hassanaliyeh:
yes, just going with original global rom, my device is global MI version (global global)
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hassanaliyeh:
5th try now just failed again. i really need help please.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hungragezone:
I think u should reflash and lock your BL using fastboot method from beginning
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hassanaliyeh:
the problem is, i did that a few times now. doesnt work.

seems like there is something blocking in the update after reboot.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hassanaliyeh:
the error i am getting after every failure is the following:

"Couldn't update Miui"

"download rom and try updating again"
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hassanaliyeh:
could it be a reason of installing xiaomi.eu using twrp that the partition has changed and caused this problem? just a thought.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] xNAPx:
Are you trying to install it via the OTA? Because the problem can be the unlocked bootloader
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hassanaliyeh:
OTA and local upgrade through the 3 dots. any other way?

btw, just tried again with locked bootloader
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] xNAPx:
Well that's weird. I can push the installation with the 3 dots and everything goes well
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hassanaliyeh:
How large was your file?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] xNAPx:
3.2 I think
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hassanaliyeh:
Do you have an idea what would be the issue?

Any help would be great
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] speedtripler:
Where can you download 12.5.6 from ?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] speedtripler:
My gf have a unit on global 12.5.4 and it doesn't get ota updates either , very weird

Where did you get the 12.5.6 from?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hassanaliyeh:
here is your 12.5.6

https://bigota.d.miui.com/V12.5.6.0.RKAMIXM/miui_STARGlobal_V12.5.6.0.RKAMIXM_e0b20eed12_11.0.zip

could you please report if it goes through? also, is the bootloader locked and device not rooted?

Thanks
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] speedtripler:
Will try flash in 15 minutes and update
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] speedtripler:
Update file seems ok.....
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hassanaliyeh:
how will it go? after you finish update
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hassanaliyeh:
and, is your system bootloader unlock or device is rooted?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] speedtripler:
Yes, the bootloader is unlocked and also rooted

12.5.6 looks ok, kinda the same as 12.5.4 🤣

Do you have a link for the new 12.5.7 ?
[Google Pixel 5a] GrandAdmiral:
So I'm coming over from the Pixel 3 where 3-button navigation was the default. On the 5a, gesture navigation is. Still not sure how to work with it, especially when trying to move around apps like Root Explorer. So I wanted to gauge you guys thoughts and why. So, what's your go-to?
[Google Pixel 5a] dkryder:
i recently got a 5a. i've been using a 3a since they came out. on the 3a i had the option of 2-button nav as well as 3-button and gesture. on the 5a i just have 3-button and gesture. i'm using gesture right now but that could change. i miss the 2-button though because in practice is was sort of a hybrid between button and gesture.
[Google Pixel 5a] csheppard93:
I like using the gestures. Started using them on my OnePlus and it took some time to get use to but now on my 5a they work alot faster and smoother. I like having that little bit of extra space on my screen and able to go back without having to hit a back button, just swipe from the left or right edge to center.
[Google Pixel 5a] Locklear308:
Gestures = Oops, oops, oops. Way too janky.
[Google Pixel 5a] jeff@work:
I switched back to the 3 button navigation cause I just had too many issues with gesture based nav not working right
[Google Pixel 5a] Tulsadiver:
With root you should be able to get two button back.
[Google Pixel 5a] dkryder:
That was my thinking as well but it's not there and I am not aware of any utility app that would turn it on. My 5a does have root currently because it's new and I wanted to explore things. Maybe 12 will have it.
[Google Pixel 5a] Tulsadiver:
You could try flashing this.
[Google Pixel 5a] koreyb:
I recently switched to gesture. Took a bit to get used to but I feel like going back to 3 button would be like going back to tap typing from swiping. The size phones are now it's nice to swipe to go back from the middle of the screen instead of reaching to the bottom.
[Google Pixel 5a] dkryder:
Ok, thanks! I now have the 2-button option on 5a. I appreciate your input.
[Google Pixel 5a] lightuser:
I prefer 3-button and just realized that the recent apps button breaks after the OTA android 12 update, at least using Nova launcher. I hadn't thought about how often I use this to swap between a few screens, but it is really an impairment to lose it suddenly.
[Google Pixel 5a] mr2620:
I started using gestures on my 2XL. It took some getting used to, but I couldn't imagine going back at this point. It's so much easier to change between open apps and go back with gestures.
[Google Pixel 5a] pbanj:
i use fluid navigation gestures. it's like turning 3 button into gestures in their same location
[Google Pixel 5a] sailorcanfly:
do you know to swap back and recent key in 3-button navigation mode for 5a
[Google Pixel 5a] Tulsadiver:
For those rooted, yes.
[Google Pixel 5a] sailorcanfly:
could you share the method? I really would like prefer the back key in the right side.
[Google Pixel 5a] Tulsadiver:
Pull your SystemUIGoogle.apk.

Unzip

Take out res/layout/back.xml and recent_apps.xml. Switch the names and replace.
[Google Pixel 5a] sailorcanfly:
Thanks for your direction. I am in android 11 and Root. I used root explorer or solid explorer but could not modify or replace the systemuigoogle.apk at all.
[Google Pixel 5a] Tulsadiver:
You would have to use a Magisk module.
[Google Pixel 5a] sailorcanfly:
View attachment 5462197
[Google Pixel 5a] sailorcanfly:
You mean use the magisk module like above" install from storage"
[Google Pixel 5a] sailorcanfly:
Directly install modified systemUI.apk or I need to write something. I am an green hand. Thanks
[Google Pixel 5a] Tulsadiver:
Yes, after you put your modified apk in a Magisk module, you would flash it from there...

Edit: upload your systemuigoogle.apk....
[Google Pixel 5a] sailorcanfly:
I attached my systemUI.apk. could you modify it with back and recent key swapped and flashable by magisk module? Thanks a lot
[Google Pixel 5a] Tulsadiver:
Flash this
[Google Pixel 5a] sailorcanfly:
I flash it with magisk module. But the back key is still on the left.
[Google Pixel 5a] sailorcanfly:
I reboot the system after flash
[Google Pixel 5a] sailorcanfly:
I am using pixel 5a. What problem will it be. Thanks
[Google Pixel 5a] Tulsadiver:
You must have something already installed that is in conflict. Something that has already modified the systemui or is an overlay of the systemui.
[Google Pixel 5a] sailorcanfly:
Attached pictures are those magisk module and exposed module installed. Which one will probably have conflict with yours. Thanks a lot
[Google Pixel 5a] Tulsadiver:
I have no idea. You'll have to use trial and error.
[Google Pixel 5a] sailorcanfly:
Ok, thank a lot for your help. I will reset my phone to try
[Google Pixel 5a] sailorcanfly:
Thanks a lot for your help. I figured out. First the navigation gesture needed to be enabled and then flash your file. Reboot and then choose 3 button navigation. It swap the back and recent key flawless. Appreciate your help
[Google Pixel 5a] blackhawk:
You could trt using One Handed Operation plus (playstore) to set a fixed gesture box* of the side or side swipe gestures anywhere on the sides. I use this if I loose screen control to a 3rd party app.

It's a well behaved app that uses almost no battery.

*It's supported on Android 9/10, not sure about 11/12
[Google Pixel 5a] sailorcanfly:
Thanks. But I prefer 3 button navigation
[Google Pixel 5a] blackhawk:
Agreed!

This is, a 3rd party work around... if no overlay didn't kill it on 11/12.

My devices offer native button support... which I prefer.View attachment 5462373

I upgraded to 6.1 , luv it. Only issue or adjustment Id like too make is , when i send a text I dont get any notification its been sent . The previous version (6.0) would tell u . Is there any fix to this ?:D
[Touch CDMA General] wcnghj:
Are you with Verizon?

Verizon disabled txt receipt notification Sept. 20th.
[Touch CDMA General] TheChampJT:
Don't worry, your messages are being sent. Trust me, it's very annoying to send a message just have a new popup that you sent a message.

If you really want it, use Schap's config tool and turn it on.
[Touch CDMA General] hartlya:
THXS guys appreciate the suggestions. Worked great
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] teslap:
I've been looking for a phone casing with a S-pen holder but have not manage to find one that is minimalistic, slim and comes with a holder that doesn't add much to the overall width of the phone. So I decided to make a holder out of 48 pieces of block magnets (5mm x 2mm x 1mm) and I stick them to the phone casing and S-pen using double sided tapes.

Things to note :

1) The magnets should be strong but not too strong to cause issues with the screen.

2) Magnets should not be too near to the tip of S-pen to cause issues with the pen.

3) Double sided tapes must be strong enough to hold the magnets to prevent it from detaching from the Pen/Casing. Super glue may be better in this case.

Hope the above helps for anyone that is looking for a similar solution.

View attachment 5428243
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] daniel_loft:
I advise against super glue as it only binds plastic to plastic. Initially it gives the impression that it works with other materials but after a while it fails catastrophically.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] babyboy3265:
The dual sided tape is pretty thin so thats good. If however is starts falling, you should consider an alternative glue, NOT super glue.

Otherwise, acceptable creation.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] aldoru:
Why so crazy ideas boys? Just buy Nillkin Aoge Leather Case : 12 USD on Aliexpress + Pen from Note 8 (black version) which suits this case much, much better than the latest Samsung pen (and is way cheaper ofc). Case quality is really good. It holds the phone perfectly well, there are no problems with the screen protectors. It also protects camera section. Leather is also good quality. And it looks expensive ;) I do reccomend it. I have bought 2 pcs just in case.View attachment 5439105
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] JG96EVO:
What's the inside look like?is it hard plastic? Or TPU type of material?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] aldoru:
The frame is made from TPU (I think 2mm thick) - something between elastic TPU and a hard plastic. Back is from plastic, covered by leather.View attachment 5439439
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] RSGI:

I was really trying to find a way to carry my Note9 S-Pen with the S21 Ultra.

It arrived... Already with the my Note9 S-Pen... Just love it... Thanks for the suggestion
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] aldoru:
Very nice ! Congrats. I do reccomend also an alloy/metal cover for camera section (without glass). It protects from scratches. I did not buy it earlier and now have some of them. Why without the glass? It does not produce reflections

[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
Was prompted to install this app. Not even clear to me what it does that Samsung Health doesn't do, but one thing I do know - it drains battery like crazy - as much or more than the display, and it was killing my watch in under a day. Uninstalled, and battery life is back to normal.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] fliptwister:
Are you referring to this app?

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samsung.android.service.health

I have never been prompted to install this. Good to know so if I am I wont install. Did it prompt you on watch?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
Yup, that's the one - and no, I believe I got the prompt on my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blackhawk:
Uninstalled... long ago, no remorse🤣

Anything with the words "kids", "friends" or "wellness" too.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
Now I remember where I got the prompt (as I just got it again) - within Samsung Health. Shows up as a pop-up to sync data between apps, which then refers you to the Health Platform app.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blackhawk:
Device health?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
No, the Samsung Health app.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blackhawk:
I don't have that one. So this is for device health not human health?

Goofy Samsung...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] gerardo1000:
Which app is available that replaces the samsung healt app?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] brewston:
How did people uninstall health platform ? I only see an option to remove the updates. I'm seeing wicked battery drain on my GW4 too.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
Are you sure you're referring to the same app - Health Platform, not Samsung Health or Samsung Health Monitor?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] brewston:
Yes, definitely health platform.

￼
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blackhawk:
I wouldn't remove it unless you know exactly what it does.

Try clearing its data and clearing the system cache.

In Device Care (or whatever it's called on your device) clear system logs and turn off all power management.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
Strange - for me, that was an optional download, and so completely uninstalled. Where did you try uninstalling it from, the app drawer? Maybe try disabling it if you can't uninstall it?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] brewston:
Yeah, I was prompted to install it last week (week before?) I'd been looking in Play Store for uninstall but ended up disabling in Settings > Apps and it doesn't appear these any more. I'll reboot the watch and see how I get on (I've got a Samsung phone FWIW, not sure if that's affecting things)
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] JamesR913:
I dont really remember installing this app but had extremely bad battery drain the last few days, which brought me to this thread. When I followed the link to the app store I had the option to uninstall updates only yet the app doesn't show up anywhere on the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blackhawk:
If it has a "parent" app you may need to uninstall that to uninstall your problem app.

Joined at the hip...

I've seen Samsung daisy chain their apps together like this with Wearables.

They show as 2 separate apps but install/uninstall as one🤣
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] kbboykin:
That's strange. I have it installed and it IS NOT the battery hog
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
Interesting. Maybe it's a settings issue within the app.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] kbboykin:
Possibly as I have everything and the kitchen sink syncing. Only after the latest SH update did things get squirrelly as fast as syncing. But I've managed to get it back and a lot of things sync to SH without using their app, I e. Yunmai my smart scale used to sync with the app, but now won't pair with my phone through the app, but sync weight and BMI directly to SH. Go figure...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blackhawk:
Invariably when it's not running proper you need to play with it or find a work around.

Sometimes it's easy, sometimes it's a lot of fun... but doable.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Sheldor1967:
This was an issue for me a couple of days ago. I backed up and did a reset on the watch and it did better yesterday. I shows that the Health Platform app only used 0.2 % of battery yesterday.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] juniorrs5:
Yep, when I made a reset of it - it helped me as well. I wonder how long would we need to wait for a fix for it. Talking of that, do you how often healthcare related apps can be just a regular fraud? And how to resolve those jural issues? I've read a lot of pretty useful info here ( link: https://federal-lawyer.com/california/healthcare-fraud/medical-license/ ), about all kind of fraud actions, that may happen in the healthcare of US.

Hi guys, I've dug around the forums everywhere in the internet for very long time, and found out that there is actually custom roms which will work on our devices, with fingerprint working (the only reason why I'm still on stock rom)

So basically there is a cool guy called phhusson which does aosp treble in which he make fixes and patches for all kind of devices, and to our luck it looks like he already did a fix for our fingerprint half year ago

Here is an issue in which we can see that fingerprint specifically for our devices was already fixed

https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/issues/1370

Here is where you can get the original Phh aosp treble (his work)

Here is lineage os 18.1 based on his(Phh) aosp treble, which means fingerprint there should be working too

P.S: I'm not developer and did not take any part in development of roms in link above, also I do not take any responsibility for your device, shall something happen to it, I'm just a guy trying to people who has been stuck on stock rom (only because of God **** Fingerprint and uncertainty if custom rom from device forum will be receiving any update)
[Samsung Galaxy A71 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] raftomas88:
Let me know if anyone tries the lineage os in the link above and if everything is working
[Samsung Galaxy A71 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] 2344534574542433237923447:
It was a bit complicated but I got it working. I have not tested the fingerprint reader which is what you are concerned about but the ROM works without any obvious issues.

TWRP was flashed with Odin after I flashed stock firmware. I used ianmacd's TWRP to flash the GSI. I had to use faizauthar12's BUB5 kernel to get past the stuck LineageOS logo.

This thread for how to make the GSI usable for TWRP: https://xdaforums.com/t/how-to-make...ung-galaxy-a51-super-partition-image.4216083/

Adding system.img to the zip file instead of creating a new zip file seemed to work better. Multidisabler fork with encryption appears to work.

Hope that helps anyone.
[Samsung Galaxy A71 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] AirAustin:
After instaling the .img i ended up with a samsung bootloop

and installing the img using the zip method literally did nothing so yeah
[Samsung Galaxy A71 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] AirAustin:
can you specify how exactly did you install the gsi?
[Samsung Galaxy A71 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] 2344534574542433237923447:
I used the zip method. Renamed the GSI .img file to system.img and put it in the right directory in the zip file. You have to use the tool I linked for TWRP to read the GSI. I flashed the zip through TWRP.
[Samsung Galaxy A71 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] AirAustin:
I had to use another ZIP method with twrp to get lineage os to work. And the fingerprint isn't working properly. It's really bugged.
[Samsung Galaxy A71 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] 2344534574542433237923447:
There's a setting for Samsung in the Phh Treble Settings for the broken fingerprint reader. It might work
[Samsung Galaxy A71 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] AirAustin:
Can you send a screen shot of the settings and check if it works? I no longer have the GSI on my phone
[Samsung Galaxy A71 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] 2344534574542433237923447:
There seems to be no difference with it on or off. It's not working

its cool that you have fod fixed but does face unlock work as well. I have used a couple of gsis and roms that are not one ui based and i found that aosp face unlock works much better than one ui
