[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rigerp:
So i was just following the instructions from this page https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/flox/install, was able to unlock the bootloader of my nexus 7 device. Now at this point i didnt know my device codename, i thought it was flox but i just noticed on the bootloader page it says deb. [Im a noob..guilty]

Now the 2nd step was no biggie either, i was able to flash twrp recovery, but somehow it was not working as i was keep getting error 1 and vendor invalid argument when i tried to flash the lineage 18.1 zip.

The recovery img i tried were

lineage-18.1-20211018-recovery-flox.img

twrp-3.4.0-0-deb.img

twrp-3.5.0_9-0-flox.img

twrp-3.5.2_9-0-flo.img

twrp-3.5.2_9-0-flo_followmsi.img

Now after flashing twrp recoveries i was getting the problem of not able to flash the LOS 18.1 rom file, plus if i would format the device and then try to reboot the device back to recovery i would get an error with android logo collapsed [check the image]

what am i doing wrong? plz help.

I sense its repartitioning process? also i am not sure if i did an EFS Persists back up.

so if someone can give a walkthrough. would be very greatful _/\_

thanks again
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ev-olution_net:
Was your device rooted? Start it in to recovery mode, go to "Mount". And see if you could chose system directory. If not, that means TWRP can't access system directory and will not be able to flash any custom ROM until you sort root permissions.

Edit: Sorry just now noticed that you can't get in to recovery mode anymore. Connect your device to computer and use Nexus Root Toolkit to flash TWRP recovery.

hello i was installing a new rom to my mobile (prophet) and after it finished i found my memory card had been stopped to work properly i found

1 when i open my storage card from file explorer it open the card but i donot find the files which there was on it

2 when i try to see how is the memory available on it ,i found the same memory which it was before i install the rom and i see that the card has a very big memory used which it was on it before but no files can be seen

3 i tried to even format the card but i cudnot do that and i read want to the files which was on it

plz i know that there r many experts here who gonna tell me wat to do

i used the program called pocket mechanic but it didnot do anything new

Don't post new threads demanding a quick answer!

Your files are encrypted!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] MAZAR SCIENTIST:
i;m soo sry

i didnot encrypted my files but that appears when i installed the new rom
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Jadel:
TheCHAMPJT is correct, you"re files have been encrypted by the built in program in the rom. You should be able to unlock it again using the same program (under settings) provided you haven't and DON'T reflash your rom on your phone. That will make problems much worse.

Hello, is there any comparison of ROMs for Note 7 somewhere?

I'm currently using Pixel Experience, however with the last update, somehow I lost RAMDisk, so I can't install Magisk from OS itself. Apparently, I am forced to reinstall ROM again, but I would like to find a ROM which is good on battery, pre-rooted and minimal.

Thanks.

E-Bay. Look for 8125 housing, or HTC wizard housing, or somethin' along those lines.

Of course if it's a G4, you'll need to get the T-Mobile XDA housing (I believe it's the XDA)

You'll see the differences.

An hour ago, somehow I managed to open its download mode. To test how it got opened, I restarted my device, but unfortunately, I couldnt go back to download mode. Is there any way to solve this problem? I want to go back to download mode

[Samsung Galaxy A20 Questions & Answers] sarthak.whenever:
Yes, it just looks like it is bricked but it is not yet completely bricked.

The solution was simple.

First, completely power off device (don't restart, just turn off). After that, by certain keys combination, go to download mode.

It seems it doesn't work while restarting but works if it is completely turned off.(At least in my case it had been so)

Project Name: Polaris 2D Driver Project

Driver Name: P3D 2D Driver (Working title)

Development and Testing Team: SEE Post #2

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ANNOUNCEMENT:

The P3D team would like to extend an OPEN INVITATION to all developers and programmers from all forums of EVERY device to come forward and help us create the 2D driver which, as it is being developed from scratch will require much development work with many dll files created from scratch.

If you are interested in helping, please post your interest in this forum and we will add your name to the developers list. If you would like to help but own a different device to which the 3D driver is yet to be ported to, we would also like to hear from you and hopefully assist you with the knowledge we have gained in return for your efforts here. (actually we'll help you anyway but.. we do want your help! :) )

[Touch Cruise ROM Development] bally3:
It started with a few simple questions:

"Can the Polaris be hardware accelerated?"

"Why doesnt the CA Kaiser 3D driver work on the Polaris?"

That was a month ago..since then, thanks to the help and support of NikMel, NeoS2007, Rogro82 and NuShrike to name a few, we now have a working 3D driver which is currently in a version 1 state and with the release of the cab version through CA last night, we can now concentrate on improving speed and compatibility to make better use of the graphic chips capabilities.

My intention then was never to start a 2D driver or work on a 2D driver until I was satisfied no more could be done to improve it and a "final" release was in the cards, but through my own testing and various posts and conversations, I now find myself wondering whether the improvements with 3D is linked to the 2D driver?

From day 1, before we released the 3d driver and after, users have expressed faster speeds in 2d as well as 3d - though many have explained it to be a "placebo" effect, we naturally attributed this to the gpu sharing the workload with the cpu which makes sense in a common sense way - itje posted a humorous answer on his thread explaining this very thing as worth a read just to put a smile on your face, but on a serious note a question has to be asked - Does improvement on 3D really effect 2D and if that is the case, would a 2D driver help improve the 3D drivers perfornance?

So why start a 2D thread when the 3D driver still needs refining?

Well, apart from the question above, the overwhelming requests for 2D support on both Polaris and Kaiser forums (it should work on both in theory), we now have a dump of the long awaited Toshiba G810 rom to get us started- A BIG THANK YOU TO BIGKVAK - welcome to the team! :)

It is inevitable then that work needs to start on this project. We also need to preserve the 3D thread for future 3D driver developments and defer 2D driver related posts from it, for these reasons, this new thread has been opened for all to start working with the P3D team in bringing 2D greatness to our devices.

Lets share our knowledge and have fun doing it like we did with the 3D driver!

PS: Although I have named the project Polaris 3D driver project, I would like to extend an invitation to users of all devices that could benefit from the 2D drivers creation, after all through CA Kaiser development, we have now ported the 3D driver to the Polaris AND the NIKE and hopefully to many more devices :)

Let our devices not make us divisive - whats is the point?

It is common knowledge that files from newer devices are used to help create the drivers we need for our devices - so why should we gloat and mock other less supported devices, should we not help them and share our knowledge and in the words of a good friend here "Pay it Forward?"

This is not the spirit of XDA Developers and it is certainly not the ethos of Team P3D - We have and pledge tol share all knowledge with users of all devices.

Besides, its so much more fun when we all work together! :)

reading it now.. some of it we know.. let see what we can learn..
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] NeoS:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa925824.aspx

Here we go:

"Applications direct output to a specified device by creating a device context for the device. The device context is a GDI-managed structure containing information about the device. An application creates a device context by calling device context functions. GDI returns a device context handle used to identify the device.

Applications can direct output to a physical device, such as a display or printer, or to a logical device, such as a memory device.

A device context also contains attributes that determine how GDI functions interact with a device. These attributes eliminate the need to specify every piece of information Windows Embedded CE requires to display an object on a device. If you want to change an attribute, you can use attribute functions to change current device settings and operating modes. Operating modes include text and background colors and the mixing mode that specifies how colors in a pen or brush combine with colors already on a display surface."

GDI is the source of 2D on our devices. Maybe we need to look out for GDI tweaks in the registry?
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] NeoS:
BPP (Bits Per Pixel) explained

I also found this blog about the colors used on a mobile device. It's said that if you have a colordepth of 18 instead of the usual 8, 16, 32 bits, it's more cpu intensive. Isn't there a registry key for colordepth?

http://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/archive/2005/09/07/462187.aspx

"The next thing to understand is how the bits turn into colors on the screen. Say you've got a typical PocketPC with a resolution of 240x320 and 65536 colors. That means you've got 320 rows of 240 pixels (dots), each of which has 16 bits of data representing its color. All of that information is stored in a chunk of memory known as the "Frame Buffer." The LCD hardware takes whatever is in the Frame Buffer and converts it directly to what's on the screen. Want to change what's on the screen? Change what's in the Frame Buffer and the screen will update.

Okay, so we need 16 bits for every pixel, and we've got 240 times 320 dots. 16 bits is two bytes, so that's a total of 153600 bytes, or 150K of RAM used to hold what's on the screen."
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] NeoS:
Maybe a good thing to mention: we're hoping that the Toshiba g810 Portege has the files we need to develop a 2D driver. We're currently trying to extract a dump we got. Anyone have experience in extracting Toshiba's .Bin files?
