Hi Everyone,

I just got my new Touch Pro today here in Taiwan. It's all in Chinese and want to change the rom to English. I will be using RUU_Raphael_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.90.707.1_Radio_Signed_Raphael_52.33.25.17_1.02.25.19. I am a native English speaker and cannot read Chinese. I read thru many threads, but unsure what is the proper procedure. Can some help me on how to properly convert. I want to prevent bricking my new phone.. Lol.. Thanks Again !!!
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] monx®:
As a friend, my advise is pls read the wiki if u need info. if u cant find there, then pls search, if still cant find it, then its ok to start a new thread. i'm sorry if u will get mad but we bored :o
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] josan:
Hi Monx,

Yes.. I would feel the same way... I am excited to upgrade from my S710. I really tried reading all the different thread but it's coming confusing since it's seems not all threads about rom dumping is alike.. I don't get mad since I'm asking for help. That would be silly.

either

TWRP is unable to decrypt your internal storage. TWRP basically does not properly handle encrypted storage (n)

or

[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] yokonzo:
As I'm sure you all know, OnePlus 8 pro is a bit of a special case. We don't have twrp, so I can't partition that way, and we don't have parted in the terminal and I can't quite figure out how to install it. What I wanna do is add like 2gb to the system partition, does anyone know how?
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] superchilpil:
Add 2gb for what exactly? You can't extend the partitions on the device itself. Normally you want the system partition as small as possible to free up more storage, but put simply if you want to extend the partition you would have to flash a system.img that has been extended.

This however would be pointless because having extra free space in the system partition does nothing as nothing writes to system outside of a software update.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] yokonzo:
Flashing extra stuff my dude, there's plenty of reasons to extend your partition, and that's an extremely roundabout way to do it

Like i mentioned earlier, theres parted and fdisk, I'm just looking for usage commands or syntax, not reasons not to do it.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] jamescable:
Well you actually CAN extend system partition, my nexus 7 2013 and a lot of older devices have ways to do this. My nexus 7 2013 has 1.6gb of system partition so it can flash a11 ROMs.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] jamescable:
And we now have twrp
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] yokonzo:
Latest OnePlus 8 pro fork of twrp is not working for me, that's the first thing I tried but unfortunately i can't even seem to do adb commands or mount a partition
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
I would like to use this thread to specifically discuss the video camera performance against other phones.

Spread some reviews, video comparisons - voice your thoughts, your experiences, whatever bothers you or whatever you like.

I'm going to start with that one

Google Pixel 6 Pro vs Xiaomi 11T Pro​

- 4K 60

For some interesting reason, it seems that our P6 Pro swipes the floor with Xiaomi, HDR in video mode is spot on, whilst it's not that good in "normal" camera/stillshot mode. Google definitely has to improve upon still shot HDR/over sharpening (as discussed in other threads). Video performance though (at least in good lighting conditions) is very good.

Mind, of course, the camera limitations. Pixel 6 Pro only uses dedicated lenses (ultrawide/tele) when using 4K 30, they do not work in 4k 60. Hopefully Google can improve/ "fix" that in a future update.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] 96carboard:
Its not just the lens. Each lens has its own sensor, and they are not all the same sensor, nor are they attached using the same interface, so the hardware may not support higher framerate on the smaller sensors.
[General Questions and Answers] avalchanovski:
Hello everyone,

So recently I noticed that my storage is fuller than it should be. I made a little investigation and it seems like when I take a photo/video it somehow uses twice as much space. As seen in the screenshots, Images take nearly the same amount of storage as Media Storage App. And Media Storage is just an app that is needed when you view, download, play, and stream images, videos, audio files, and other media files. And usually, it doesn't use that much space. I took a long video to check whether it changes in both places - and yes it does.

So my question is: do my photos and videos duplicate? And how I can stop that because it uses a lot of memory?

My phone is Motorola edge 20 with Android 11.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bnm7bnm:
See the "E" icon is inverted

Don't know how it happened... didn't install anything to change it

Just saw it and took a screenshot

After soft reset its was back to normal...

How can it be done permanently?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] HiTouCh:

[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] MrFrizzy:
EDIT: Issue resolved! Thanks, Bill!

I am using my 8T with a stock ROM with an unlocked bootloader and Magisk. As I want to keep the systemless root, last time I did the OTA updates through Magisk so it can patch the boot image before rebooting into the newest update. I know this only works with the full ROM images and not the incremental ones thus I download the full update file through "Oxygen Updater" rather than the official system update. I went into Magisk, to the modules tab, selected "Install from storage", and selected the full OTA file. Once it finished I then installed Magisk again before rebooting. Everything worked great. This latest update, however, keeps failing to unzip in Magisk. All I get in the logs is:

- Copying zip to temp directory
! Unzip error

I haven't changed anything since the last time I had a successful update this way other than to update the ACC module. I don't really know how to proceed with this other than to wait for the next OTA update. Unfortunately, I didn't do the correct procedure the first time I updated and Magisk did not backup the stock boot image, so I can't really try that. Any thoughts?

Model: KB2005

Current version: 11.0.10.10.KB05AA

Update version: 11.0.11.11.KB05AA (file is ...15.O.29_OTA_0290_all_2110091944... [2.78GiB/2.84GB])

Magisk version: 23.0 (app is also v23.0)
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] BillGoss:
Here are three ways for keeping Magisk for an incremental OTA:

1. https://xdaforums.com/t/tools-zips-...ices-platforms.2239421/page-149#post-84764713

2. https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-how-t...00-kb2001-kb2003-kb2005.4178675/post-85801253

3. https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-rooting-oos-with-twrp.4327417/

And I would never try to install an OTA via Magisk. Simply put the OTA in the root of sdcard and then use the System Updates local upgrade option.
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] MrFrizzy:
Well, that was simple enough. I guess I got the process confused, somehow combining parts of the process with my old 5T using TWRP and the previous update I did on my 8T.

Thanks for taking the time to grab those links and make a reply! I appreciate it despite the fact that I had a case of the dumb and could have saved you the effort

In these lines you need to change 1 to 0

Magisk manager works without TWRP great

In TWRP recovery dos not work mtp

And big problem with TWRP is if you formating data then mobile can not recognize sim card (IMEI null,baseband unkown)

If anybody have solution thanks.

Small question....

I have my phone configured that after a minute or so the phone gets locked with a password. (standard windows mobile option)

but the back light stays off when i have to enter the code,

and after i entered the code the back light is turned on.

but when there is a bit to much light around me, i can hardly see the screen and the numbers to unlock my phone.

is there a way to get the back light to turn on when i have to enter the code ?

(on htc diamond and pro)

Thnx

It's the main reason I got the Pixel 6. I had the Pixel 5 but the under display earpiece was a deal breaker for me so I sold it on.

I have been wanting to de-Google my phone for some time now, but it seems having a Pixel is the best way due to the available ROMs. Can't wait to try it out.

Already on Proton, I'll consider graphene.

Unless Lineage can match the Pixel experience with a stock-like gapps, it's probably not worth it.

I'll definitely try it out
[Google Pixel 6] axelmasok:

What would be teh best secured one Calyxos or lineageOs or /e OS Foundation? Graphene is out of scope as it do not consider haveing microG

Calyx OS if you don't want Graphene. But FYI you can have sandboxed gapps on graphene which is even better.

LineageOS for sure.

That's the whole point for some of of us :D

So you mean that microG is not protecting from Google Services? i thought that it allow to get Google services working without sharing data, did i misunderstood? if the answear is yes, so Graphen is the best for privacy..... But what about /e/ OS based on LineageOS vs calyxos or Graphene?

[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] eddyxx:
Hi, I have a problem with a Honor 10.

Since August it started to restart randomly, I just replaced the battery and I just did two factory reset but the problem continues to manifest even in the configuration screen.

I would exclude the faulty power button, since before rebooting it usually froze on the activity I was performing.

Any ideas?

Thank you!
[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Test power button with ohm meter.

It was doing this after the reset with just it's factory load? No 3rd party apps loaded?

Try reflashing firmware.

Maybe be a mobo failure.
[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] eddyxx:
I really don't think is the power button because it reboot even in idle on the table, and i saw that if i put it on charge it reboot instantly.

I have this problem even in the configuration screens after the factory reset, indeed i've must configured two or three times because of that.

I'll try to reflash the firmware, then i'll wait for a new battery i ordered a month ago.

If it will be still broken i guess is a mobo failure.

I have a question: i didn't flashed a smartphone before, and i was asking myself if this reboot problem can mess up with flashing, bricking the phone. Can it be possible?
[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Yeah if it interrupts the flash that won't end well...
[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
If you can return it, do so... otherwise...

Before you go flashing nuts try to determine if it's a hardware issue. Check ribbon cable connectors... and that switch.

Firmware shouldn't become corrupted unless there's a flash memory failure or it was a bad flash to begin with.

Does it not do this is safe mode? 3rd party app if so.

If it does it when in the boot menu it's likely hardware.

If so it may be just a failed battery. Try with charger connected to see if this alters the behavior.

If you don't feel comfortable repairing it, let a good tech do it for you. I always remember my first mechanical alarm clock disassembly... it didn't go well🤣
[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] eddyxx:
It reboots even in safe mode!

It would seem a hardware problem, possible that I bought a new battery already damaged?

It’s been a few hours since it works good after charging it to 100%, it seems that it starts to reboot towards 50%.

I wanted to flash it also because before doing the factory reset, it automatically installed some "stock" apps by itself, I refer to some games that Honor automatically installs at each factory reset, every time I uninstalled them, after some restart they reinstalled themselves.

It was a weird issue but looks like fixed with the factory reset, so now i only have the reboot issue.

I am so desperate that I would like to try the battery of my Honor 10 (the one with problems is that of my girlfriend), I would not buy another battery since I have to be delivered the one I ordered from a month.
[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
It may be the battery, they can fail at any time.

It's rare for new ones to fail but it happens.

Use a firewall to block auto updates or installs.

Karma Firewall works well but its valuable logging feature doesn't work on Android 10 and higher, but it still will block apps.
[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] eddyxx:
Update: I just bought another battery and the problem persist.

Now im sure is not the battery so i will flash it very soon no matter what.
[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] citibatter:
I have been having the same problem as you guys have since last Christmas (2020), when my phone was 18 months old.

I switched phone and gave the Honor 10 to my wife for Coin Master and the problem persisted.

However, two months ago the battery started to swell and surprisingly the problem went away completely for about a month. But as it swelled to the extent of pushing out the screen the problem returned a month ago.

Thinking it was possibly a battery/battery connection related issue, I changed to a new Pisen battery last night. Sadly, the rebooting continued but only for 2-3 times today.

So it is probably an issue with the board itself.
[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
The battery failure may have damaged the mobo or perhaps it was preexisting.

Check ribbon connector pins for damage. Look around for visible solder cracks. Try pressing gently on the mobo with a pencil eraser with device powered on to try to find the area. Check ribbon cables too by gently moving them.

One of the most likely places for a failed solder joint are the BGA chipsets. The many solder pads are under the chipset, inaccessible.

Press gently on them to try and verify this. A hot air station (and skillset to use it) is the only way to repair this type of failure.

Any battery swelling is a failure, replace it asap.
[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] citibatter:
As I said, battery has been replaced with a brand new one. Therefore the swelling issue is fixed.

Don't have the skill set to use a hot air gun or to solder so this is it for me.

Quite disappointed by the QC of Huawei as this was my first Huawei phone. I have been using Xiaomi since my first smartphone and never had an issue like this before.
[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
My point was a mobo failure is generally a game over event.

I run strictly Samsung's as I like their UI and have become familiar with them. Of course in 2-3 years that could change if Samsung keeps dropping the ball.
[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] citibatter:
I understand.

That said, Huawei did replace the MBs for out of warranty customers in mainland China as a good will gesture.

Too bad that policy did not extend outside of China.
[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Maybe see if they'll discount a mobo for you.

Not free but it might sweeten the deal.

Or write it off and move on.

All my Samsung's have been long lived with replacement batteries being the only repairs.

Another reason I like them.

In my case it was sort of dumb luck especially when choosing the first Note 10+. In this case they did live up to their hype.

The S4+ lasted over 5 years and still boots up.
[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] exoronic:
I had the random reboots going on for weeks even at night, also bootloops sometimes .

It might be just pure luck but this is what i did last time:

Did a complete reset of the Phone ( everything gone )

I changed simcard to other simslot (i think this made the difference, atleast for my phone)

[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] eddyxx:
Hey guys, it seems that I solved the problem by bringing the phone to a Huawei service center, they performed an "operation on the motherboard".

Actually they changed the battery with an "original" one for 60€ (the one I had replaced cost 10€ :LOL:), then when the problem obviously came back they did the repair on the mobo at no extra cost.

I guess it went well.
[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] nomob:
Did you had any reboots after the motherboard change?

I got the same issue with my Honor 10. Tried every trick that I could think of, but nothing seems to help.

What I noticed, that sometimes when it restarts it does get very hot in the area near the camera. (not sure exactly what component it's there but it's something on the motherboard)

I'm thinking if it worth doing this motherboard change. (as it seems to be a design/component issue if there are so many that have this problem)
