[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] linuxholgi:
I found some amazing homescreen++ (formerly BatteryStatus) themes which consuming abviously more space on the screen, as available on my Neo.

On screen shots I saw, that the bottom bar is not visible. So I think HomeScreen++ can override it. But not on my Neo :-(. Is there any option I have to set?

Btw, can I change the two button/functions in the bottom bar. In the last image I have used, I had "actions" and "contacts". Here I have "calendar" and "contacts". I found actions quite useful for me, no idea how to get this back.

Help :-)

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] linuxholgi:
The last one I was able to fix on my own :-). Found "Softkeys" at System Settins and installed the "Actions.cab" from HTC.

But still have no idea, why some themes are not able to use the space of the buttom bar on my Neo...

Can anyone else see if they can replicate this:

Connect a Bluetooth audio device, play some music, while the music is playing hold down the power button to activate the assistant, don't say anything and swipe back to dismiss it.

Does your music continue playing? Mine does not most of the time. The only way I have found to get audio to stream again was to either spam the assistant and randomly it would start again or reboot the phone.

Simply disconnecting the Bluetooth device and reconnecting it doesn't seem to help.

I've an infinix note 8i with following build number :

X683-H694EFGHIJUW-Q-OP-210831V351

I've unlocked the bootloader. But I can't find the firmware that matches my phones build number. The latest firmware that I found was :

Infinix_Note_8i_X683_MT6768_V332_210305

So obviously the build numbers are not the same. So I need solutions on what to do? Should I use this unmatched build version firmware to root my device? Or maybe I can extract my stock firmware somehow? And also another thing, some were saying I needed to flash empty vbmeta file before flashing patched boot image. So where would I get the empty vbmeta file?

Thanks In Advance.
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 1890170:
With regards to vbmeta.img:

It doesn't matter what kind of vbmeta is used, because fastboot only changes 2 bytes on a specfic address in it which are parsed by the botloader. But the vmeta must have at least a size of 4KB.

Have attached a blank vbmeta.

Thanks A Lot, Just finished rooting my device finally, though I experienced one bootloop but fixed it via SP Flash Tool. Guess I would post a detailed thread of how I did it cause there isn't much help on the internet about this model.
[General Questions and Answers] anthonymatar1:
Did you manage to root it with this build number or did you downgrade?
[General Questions and Answers] sharifrafid:
Well, first I tried with this build number and root was successful but then my Bluetooth and Wifi was not working at all. So then I had to downgrade to v332 and then root again. Now things are running perfectly.
[General Questions and Answers] anthonymatar1:
Did you try to update your device after rooting it?
[General Questions and Answers] sharifrafid:
@anthonymatar1 Nope, but I think there's a high chance that updating your device will result in a brick or something. I wouldn't suggest it.

[Redmi Note 10 Pro] TLxda-d:
Hey. I fixed the issue with my new 8gb/256gb Redmi Note 10 Pro from the previous thread, but now I noticed something else. Dark grey areas get tinted rather noticeably at low brightness, but also for some reason at a couple of additional brightness points along the brightness slider; it is more noticeable if 120hz is enabled, and at minimum if Standard color scheme and 60hz are used. Also, it seems the brightness dips about two thirds up the brightness slider, so the screen seems to flicker in brightness when manually adjusting across that brightness point; it's currently night here and I haven't checked if it also noticeably happens during auto brightness at daylight.

So regarding the tinting – I found other people mentioned it, some claiming it is "normal for AMOLED screens", but some RN 10 Pro users then said their screens don't do that and actually the AMOLED screen on my older 9T didn't seem to have this issue.

Regarding the "jumping brightness" – I'm not sure I've seen references to this, but either way it also seems a bit like a hardware issue with how the screen handles different currents.

What do you think? Does it sound like I should ask to replace the unit? I'll also mention I saw Netflix very occasionally stutters, although that would more likely be related to software optimization.

Hi,

I'm looking for adb for mips-linux. I want to execute adb commands from my mips based router over wifi and avoid having to run adb from pc.

Unfortunately I was unable to find a binary and any make files posted several years ago like here:

GitHub - karfield/adb: a standalone-built version of android adb

a standalone-built version of android adb. Contribute to karfield/adb development by creating an account on GitHub.

github.com

and

Build adb for Loongson(MIPS) – Hev's Blog

don't work on the current version anymore.

I need a adb version that is capable to work via adb wifi as the current version of the adb binaries for windows and Linux do.

Anyone has made an adb binary for mips and could release it? I want to avoid having to compile the whole android source code just to use 2 mb of files from it.

Thanks!

[Sony Xperia 1 III] mutilor:
Had the phone a week and was connected to Vodafone AU, connects to 4G but no VoLTE so it drops to 3G when making/receiving calls.

Yesterday it started to refuse to drop to 3G for calls and remained on 4G, internet on 4G was working fine, but because it refused to drop to 3G I was not having any luck with calls, manually trying to force it on 3G just ended up with no reception and no connection. Did a whole bunch of trouble shooting and reset network settings, even factory reset the phone and tried a different SIM from another provider, no luck... same issue, will not drop to 3G for making/receiving calls.

Once I used sim SLOT 2, everything was back to normal, I could manually force it on 3G, when making calls it will go from 4G to 3G as before and all is well.

Is the phone faulty and I need to get it replaced? is there something I can do to get sim SLOT 1 back working again?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Evil_Sephiroth:
It's really a problem where you need to just try and see if you find a fix.

If your provider offer no VoLTE try to do a software repair, no factory reset from inside the phone but a software repair with xperia companion. that will not reset the software on your phone but will download a new copy of the firmware (same then make a firmware reset with itunes and recovery mode compared to factory reset from iOS on iphone)
[Sony Xperia 1 III] mutilor:
Thanks, will try with Xperia companion and see if it fixes to he problem.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Hazzay88:
I have the Xperia 1 II and flashed SEA firmware and Volte works flawlessly.

If you can be bothered flash SEA firmware to see if it works
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Bofahad:
Root & enable VoLTE
[Sony Xperia 1 III] mutilor:
I've seen a few people mention the X1 ii can get VoLTE after flashing another region. Sadly no one with a X1 iii in AUS has confirmed they are able to get it working with any reflashed ROMs.

FYI my original issue with the 3G was resolved by doing a firmware repair using the Xperia companion.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Hazzay88:
Ohh good the problem was resolved with a software repair. However with Optus network 3G will be turned off April 2022 which I think in that situation anyone using the Xperia on Optus network with no volte wouldn't be able to place calls.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] mutilor:
Yeah I heard the same.

Glad i'm with Vodafone AU as they have said no plans yet to turn off 3G since they have so many customers still using.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Hazzay88:
I hope someone can verify by flashing SEA firmware if volte will work for you.

I only flashed SEA firmware for faster updates which also resulted in volte working.

It made the phone a better experience overall
[Sony Xperia 1 III] mutilor:
1 How can i tell what ROM i have (SEA,US,RU,HK etc)

2 I read in another forum that flashing non native ROM will cause OTA updates to fail and I would need to manually update via Xperia Companion (this is all for Xperia 1 iii)
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Hazzay88:
I can't remember off the top of my head where to check Firmware region however you should be able to Google it.

I have flashed mine close to year ago and have received every update since. OTA works flawless.

I don't know about the Xperia 1 III though
[Sony Xperia 1 III] spine6:
With the xperia 1 iii, if you flash different region it will not allow OTA. I use flasher to flash update manually and for me it's fine as I'm using SEA also for VOLTE.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Hazzay88:
Wooow that's interesting that it doesn't do OTA updates as don't see what the issue is. I flashed firmware on phone and after that didn't really have to do anything as updates came through OTA.

Now I'm hesitant in getting the Xperia 1 IV as it may not work if flashed. It's a gamble to get volte to work. Also I much prefer OTA updates.

Might consider S22 Ultra if it checks out good. Sony has to do something exceptional for me to consider it. Fix screen brightness, fix battery life, fix volte, fix WiFi calling etc.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] mutilor:
What country and carrier are you on?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] spine6:
I'm in malaysia, tried hotlink,celcom all working with VOLTE
[Sony Xperia 1 III] mutilor:
ahh nice

No such luck here in Australia :(
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Hazzay88:
Ohh that's so good. I think it's the modem configuration allows it to work in Malaysia
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Hazzay88:
Have you come across anyone anyone that got it to work in Australia
[Sony Xperia 1 III] mutilor:
Nope!

I just created a post today asking this question.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] spine6:
All asian version have the same bands, it only differs on the config. Since malaysia local xperia are SEA, then just flash the firmware then it will work. If xperia is not available locally, it will not be supported unless you root your phone and enable it.

it is a fair request, after all we have a similar Muslim thread do why not a JW thread?
[Off-topic] TheBundo:
Curious, what kind of issues? Frankly, I'd rather live in a neighborhood full of JW's than a neighborhood full of Muslims. It's just that I've never seen JW's cause any real problems for the world, and in law class, we learned that a huge number of freedoms we take for granted are because of Supreme Court rulings they took to the Supreme Court and won. For instance, say you're pissed at the government, and don't feel like saluting the flag one particular day. That used to get you in trouble, just like in Nazi Germany, but no longer. I think on balance, they've been a plus for society, even though annoying at times. I'd sure rather trust one of them with taking care of my house while I'm on vacation than a lot of my long-time "friends".

Mainly theological issues. They have a very control based rule system in their religion which I don't like. Like any religion people at the top get away with practically anything while the lowly JW's are brow beat for just watching the wrong kind of movie.

However I think the whole ,"they are morally better" is true and false. They have the same problems like anyone else. Child molestation and covering it up was a major problem as well as petty theft amongst the dubs. However I agree I would prefer to have some in my neighborhood as they are generally good people.
[Off-topic] Black93300ZX:
With no offense intended towards your parents, I hate Jehovah's Witnesses purely because they don't go away. I've had a Jehovah's Witness at my door, as is typical, trying to preach to me about what's right, so I told him to go away and shut the door. Half an hour later he was still there, ringing my doorbell non stop. If you believe in something that's fine, but keep it to yourself. These words not intended to "you" in particular of course, but the day I start telling people how to live their lives and what to believe in is the day I start changing my ways for those people who tell me the same. Whether you're Muslim, Jewish, Christian, or anything in between, live your life and let other people live theirs.
[Off-topic] burgertime:
Easy way to stop the JW's at your door:

1.Notify them that you do not want them ever coming back or you will call the police.

2.Tell them to write down your address and what you said on the paper they carry around marking houses.

3.Tell them you are going to call the Kingdom Hall and speak to an elder and inform them to be put on the "do not call" list. Yes many Kingdom Halls actually have these.

Problem solved!

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Guyinlaca:
By default, the Adaptive Connectivity option is on to sense and handoff between connections to supposedly improve battery life. That said, I've noticed with the feature on, the Pixel 6 Pro stays on LTE, instead of 5G a lot more often than Samsung devices. I also noticed that Wi-Fi signal would trail off a bit when not actively in use (maybe a low power sleep mode?). I'm testing it with that feature turned off now to see if it makes much difference. Granted, 5G quality varies heavily, so there are times when 4G would be better. What are your experiences with this feature?

Battery life has been outstanding on the Pixel 6 Pro by the way.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] EeZeEpEe:
It's going to be somewhat subjective people's carrier and location. I'm in Tampa on T-Mobile and pretty much 5G everywhere with and okay amount of 5G UC.

There's lots of discussion that turning off adaptive connectivity would help people's battery life especially in poor 5G reception areas.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Sneakyghost:
I'm wondering if this "adaptive connectivity" setting also sends the network to sleep altogether when the device is idle long enough. I've lately had issues with some smart home app (smartlife/tuya) not executing scheduled tasks while the phone is idle. The app itself reports to check the network, which is always fine when i do (when the device is awake). That got me to check all the power and network related controls and this adaptive connectivity is the only really new control where Google also doesn't give any insight on how it actually works. It would be helpful to get an idea of that. Just there's basically no real information on the net.

Oh and besides, i feel the battery life of the Pixel 6 pro is pretty lame actually. I guess that also pretty much depends on network availability - i work in a rural area where the network isn't great (Mobile and WiFi both not great). As long as the device is off, battery drops at an acceptable, yet not great rate. But when i activate the phone, already the screen burns down the battery so fast it's annoying me (I've already set it to 60Hz permanently). Videos, navigating, even music - all that really chews away capacity really fast. That's one reason I'd rather keep Adaptive Connectivity on. I don't want even more drain.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] hello00:
My 6 pro lasts me pretty much the entire day with heavy usage. Before I charge it which is at around 9ish, I still have 17% left.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] wolfeyes30:
When I had it on I had lots of issues with the handoff from 5g/LTE and vice versa. Been turned off for the last 3 weeks and I just use LTE as preferred network with no issues. I do some gig work on the side and I can't be caught in the No Data limbo cuz the phone doesn't know what to do.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] hello00:
this is irrelevant but im comparing my wifi signal to my s21 ultra and it is pretty much the same. Same goes with my network speed
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Sneakyghost:
I played with adaptive connectivity and power and network settings a little more and got my SmartLife/Tuya to execute in background. It wasn't killed by adaptive connectivity, that does not seem to interfere with apps in this way at least. Seems to really rather deal with better handoffs between networks and not much more.

I have a Joying headunit (11.6"), and the whites and greys in Google Maps via CarPlay are indistinguishable. Joying insists no one else has this problem. Can anyone else with a Joying headunit chime in? (Whether this identical headunit, or any of their headunits that use CarLink.)

I'm attaching a few pairs of photos to show the difference. In each pair, one is a photo of what the screen looks like; the other is a screenshot taken from the iPhone (so it shows what CarPlay should be showing).

Any feedback here can be helpful in going back to Joying, who for now are washing their hands of me.
