[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Jawcrusher:
Servus @ all,

end of the week i have my xda diamond :)

I have read many Threats about the Diamond in this Great Forum.

My Favorit Audio Codec is FLAC and my simple question it is Possible to Play FLAC Audio Files with my Diamond ? :confused:

No Windows Mobile 6 Version of Foobar or VLC exist, only a FLAC Codec for Windows CE.

Regards
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Davey101:
Conduits Pocket Player has a FLAC plugin. It's a nice player too, probably worth the money.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] johanromijn:
CorePlayer plays FLAC too.

Built-in Media Player doesn't. (of course)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] tommm:
I play FLAC with Core player but the sound isn´t so good I think there´s something with decoding..and I tryied different files with same results. When I converted these files to wma the sound was better:confused:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] heartwork:
i guess both chipset and audio-driver of the diamond aren't worth the wasted space with FLACs. even mp3s sound a lot (!) worse than on my 5 year old ipod mini.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] tommm:
Got no problem with sound quality of mp3s or wma..and don´t think that ipod is better;) And about FLAC still hope that it´s an issue of codec and not HW:)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Davey101:
I haven't done a blind test yet but I think FLAC sounds better than mp3 in Pocket Player. :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] tommm:
Naturally it should sound better:D I tryied only Coreplayer n there is some little distorsion:confused: will try pocket player
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Jawcrusher:
Servus @ all,

THX for the Informations, about FLAC and the diamond. :)

Soundquality

I think the secret of FLAC is the higher Bitrate MP3 Bitrates are even lower.

This can be the Problem why the Audioquality by Playing FLAC with the Diamond

is not so good.

CPU Power has the diamond but i think it is a codec problem.

When i get my diamond this week i try this self

Best Regards @ all
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] tommm:
So now I tryied Pocket player with Flac pocket player plugin 1.24 n it seems that it plays clear:p Now I only played one file so will testing more, but this one seems good for now;)

edited: I´m pretty sure that HW in Diamond is capable of flac decoding!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] johanromijn:
Hmm. Strange. I always use CorePlayer on my Raphael, and FLAC seems to play fine for me.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] tommm:
CorePlayer with what codec or plugin?? And when You compare the sound with 320kbs/48KHz mp3 ripped from orig audio?:)

[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Medomish:
Hi everyone.

Been using F3 for 3-4 months, but few weeks after moving to Iceland I started experiencing problems with SIM cards and the inability to dial/receive a call/connect to network. I've been using two cards, one from home country, other from Iceland. Problem is that often I cannot make a call (lingers in dialing mode, then just drops) or receive one (caller gets unavailable note) but the internet connections is ok, or I can't connect to network at all (greyed out signal bars).

I've tried cards in older phone, they are working.

I've tried resetting network settings as described on the net, but with no success. I've tried factory reset, but nothing changed.

Anyone having any idea what to do? Send it to service?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Medomish:
UPDATE: Phone was inspected by Mi Service, and their conclusion was a hardware isuue.

I'm sending it to China for warranty. Bought it through official Poco AliExpress shop, so no international warranty there.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] Mike830:
Hi

I bought an s10+ from ebay little did I know it was a USA phone I'm in the UK. It seems to work OK.

It does have t-mobile app and branding I'd like to remove.

Am I right thinking a stock fw for USA (U1) is the only option I have?

Any advice appreciated. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] GrayNova25:
Hi bud, Flashing the whole firmware through Odin

SAVE YOUR DATA, All content will be erased.

I´m not responsably to any damage to your device.

- DOWNLOAD the firmware through FRIJA app (WINDOWS). I´m using the code USC for example

- In odin app load ONLY the 4 firmware archives:

-BL

-AP

-CP

-CSC

DON´T load USERDATA (It has bloatware and configs from US operator)

Note: I use to flash updates by hand monthly sometimes, I think this method doesn´t allow to update OTA. If you want to update OTA you should flash the U1 version through a modded odin.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] Mike830:
Thanks Mate. I will be wanting OTA if possible

With CSC would I be better off looking at XAA for the unbranded USA default stock rom?

Everything is working on the phone I just want rid of the T mobile stuff.

Pardon my ignorance, I haven't done anything on samsung phones.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] GrayNova25:
In that case you should go for the U1 firmware CSC code XAA, unbranded US models.

Download through frija and then use the patched Odin modded for flashing.

Edit: OTG fixed in Dec21 release

I can't get my USB camera's to work on Pixel 6 Pro, plug in endoscope or Logitech Web Cam and receive error "UVC device error! -256 I/O error".

My other Pixel devices on Android 12 all work OK.

After trying a bunch of Camera APP's, USB Camera Pro by ShenYao has worked well on all my other devices.

Wondering if anyone else is having the same problem, or if not what APP, and camera are working?

Thanks,
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
Maybe this has something to do with the new Tensor core, it might be worth a try to contact Google about this.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Izy:
??

No its literally an arm cpu it should work fine theres nothing special stopping it working
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] miravision:
Drivers are needed for OTG accessories to work. A custom kernel can add those modules and drivers if the default kernel doesn't support external device drivers
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
There is. As miravision started explaining, just because Google uses ARM modules, doesn't mean they magically summon drivers out of thin air. It's up to each and every manufacturer to make sure that the necessary drivers are on board. Some are pre-baked into Android, some others need to be manually added by the manufacturer.

So if this new chipset doesn't support a certain application/accessory, contacting Google is definitely worth a try.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] prohibido_por_la_ley:
Why would you need an external camera? Defeats the purpose of a Pixel.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] DanielF50:
Pretty sure the Pixel 6 Pro doesnt have a endoscope function.

I have issues with OTG cables and usb-c ethernet adapters that work fine on my pixel 4 xl but don't work on my pixel 6 pro.

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] dev_willis:
I have an old Fire and I want to install a custom ROM on it but I need some help figuring out how to proceed. I've been reading a lot of threads around here (primarily this one, this one, this one, and this one) and I've successfully unlocked the bootloader but I'm hesitant to start flashing things without knowing what's current and correct. I've seen a lot of different approaches and different files and commands in various threads and some of those commands don't work anymore (e.g. any fastboot command with -i flag) and some of the links to files are dead (both goo.im and teamw.in seem to be defunct and pretty much all the links here are broken) and just the sheer volume of information here is a bit overwhelming. I also read somewhere that TWRP v. 2.7 would be better for this device than 2.8 but now it's in version 3.5 I think and I'm not sure if I should still try to find 2.7 or not?

So, I guess the main thing I'm trying to figure out is what versions of FFF and TWRP I should be using and where I can get them. It would also be great if someone could point me to the guide or guides that will be most current and relevant for my device.

Thanks!

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] ushilives:
I would install latest TWRP:-

https://xdaforums.com/t/recovery-unlocked-bl-twrp-3-5-0_9-1.3322547/

Best 2 custom Roms in my opinion are LineageOS 14.1 & Divest OS, both are based on Android 7.1.2

Divest OS i think has bit better battery life and performance but you wont be able to use some apps that require google. LineageOS can have root if you want and install google playstore.

I use DivestOS and installed Aurora Services to go with Aurora Store (great alternative to google playstore, i think this is way better). And i have F-droid. Slight glitch with DivestOS is you cant switch it off via power button and tapping on power off, you have to press down on power button for about 20 seconds so its not an issue really.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] ushilives:
The creator of LineageOS 14.1 is apparantly going to continue with it with some updates. DivestOS has monthly updates.

[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] maddin1980:
Hello,

I have a P20 Pro with a broken display. I tryed to use a USB C to HDMI + USB hub so that I can see on my TV the image and I can use a mouse to enter the lock-code. That should work and I can see the lock-screen but when I try to login the TV goes black and I can't enter the PIN.

I tryed also to enter it blind with a keyboard but that also didn't work.

Is is not possible to unlock the phone that way? Or should I try another USB C hub/adapter?

I know I can replace the screen but I don't need the phone anymore so I would like to avoid doing that...
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] istvanb:
Hi,

I bought an X3 pro with a global rom, but as I really need a call recorder I have installed the xiaomi 12.5.1 rom. I'm really not an expert on phones but somehow I managed to do it. Also for whatever reasons I had the magisk manager installed as well which I have never really wanted to use.

I was pretty happy with the phone when on one day (ironically a day after I have just checked if my phone is rooted) my phone said I can't use NFC payments anymore. So I have decided to try some magic and fix the problem myself. Again, I'm not an expert but as far as I understood I have a problem with safety-net which I have managed to solve by installing magisk and setting up modules as I have seen on youtube.

Now my phone passes the safety-net check and my phone in the play app says its certified but I still can't pay with NFC and some of the banking apps are not working anymore which is pretty bad for me.

So the question I have in escence: how can I really restore my phone to the factory default 12.5.1 eu rom? I mean I dont need TWRP or anything unlocked, I'd just like to be a regular joe without superuser rights.

Thanks a lot for your help.

ps: not sure if that matters, but if I hit the update button or I'd like to perform a factory reset on my phone then it boots into TWRP.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Ice Candy:
Uninstall Magisk or Use Magiskhide also your Banking app hide it on the Magiskhide and playstore,
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] k3lcior:
Just MiFlash stock ROM.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] istvanb:
Thanks for responding. I have tried hiding Magisk, but that didnt help me with my banking apps. Then I have uninstalled it which made things even worse cause some other programs started to complain. As the phone was not rooted anymore (I guess) I thought it can't be anything except the unlocked bootloader so I had the genius idea to type something like 'adb oem lock' which immediately bricked my phone saying 'the system is destroyed'.

I was very lucky that I remembered that xiaomi unlocker tool which opened the bootloader and that magically still worked and my phone booted to TWRP. From there I just installed an EU ROM and now everything works perfectly fine.

So overall I spent about 20h with unlocking, intalling a new ROM, rooting etc and then another 10 with reinstalling the original ROM plus reinstalling my apps again! Kudos to me going back to square one :)

Hello all!

I'm running dcd 3.2.6 with 3.42.40 radio and a Titan on Verizon. The GPS was working with Google Maps with the Verizon 6.1 update, but the phone was so slow to use (and no BT ICS), so I went to dcd. Since then, I get BT ICS, and the phone is much faster, but the GPS cannot lock on any sats. Any ideas?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Panth:
I'd check to make sure all your aGPS settings are correct using QPST.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] eclipse5302:
Already did that, but I checked them again to confirm.

What next? Is there a CAB I need to install? Should it just work out of the box?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] shield001:
it should work fine. Makesure it's set for com4 in google.

Actually I got my gf a touch and it was working fine til earlier this week now its back to the slow non aGPS where we have to wait 15 mins to get a lock. and i just got a new titan and cannot get gps working on the nuerompre3 rom. Maybe they blocked it?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] kdj67f:
did you make sure the location setting was set to on and not to 911 only?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] eclipse5302:
It is on COM4, and it is set for Location Only. It was working with the Verizon MR1 release...
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] BillThyCat:
Did you reflash back to a pre 6.1 Verizon rom first? You have to do that or MR1 breaks the GPS. Once you flash back to an older rom, then the normal update flashes for custom roms works fine.

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] eclipse5302:
That was it! I re-locked and flashed with a stock Verizon rom, and then installed SPL 2.47, dcd 3.2.6, and radio 3.42.40 and everything works perfectly! GPS, BT tethering / internet sharing, and it's quite responsive. Thanks for the tip!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] drnoir:
No verizon ROM, but still the same problem

Well, I've never used a Verizon ROM (I'm in Mexico city, my carrier's IUSACELL), but I have the same problem. I got GPS working with DCD 3.2.5 and after upgrading to Radio 3.42.30 and DCD 3.2.6 (same day, one after the other), I've been unable to lock onto a satellite in spite of leaving the unit in the open for over half an hour and prepping the unit with toggleGPS.

I've tried flashing back the radio and ROM to the working versions and even cooked several ROMS using PPCKitchen, to no avail. The system can open the port, does read up to 7 satellites, but cannot lock onto them.

I tried setting the GPS up with the QPST tool and Verizon settings, and got nowhere.

I'll try and relock and unlock tip that eclipse used, but maybe I'm missing something here...

any help will be mucho appreciated.

Thanks
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] drnoir:
Hey there. I found the aGPS settings for IUSACELL here (site is in spanish and the info is on post 27 of this thread). I'll reproduce them here for quick reference:

PDE Port: 8888

PDE Transport: IP

I've tested them using dcd radio 3.42.50 and they work like a charm

Anyone know if/how we can get them listed in the tutorial and/or included in the Iusacell carrier cab?

I know I'm a senior member..and as a senior member I should know better than to ask something nooby like this: so please excuse my noobness and help me out! :)

I'm considering on flashing to dcd's 3.2.6 ROM but I had a couple of questions in mind first:

1) I'm on Sprint running on Evdo Rev. A speeds, I was wondering if I'd still have these speeds after flashing to dcd

2) I read about several GPS problems after flashing to dcd..but most of them came from Verizon devices..will this happen to me if I did the same?

3) Does it have MS Office Mobile in it as well?

Thanks a lot to whoever answers me! I really appreciate it!! :D:D
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] drnoir:
Answers for you:

a) yes, EVDO-A is supported

b) The problem stems from the official Verizon update. There is now an entire section in the Titan wiki related to fixing those problems.

c) Yes, it does have Office 6.1 in it.

Hope that helps.

After the 14mb update yesterday, my P6P's battery life is bad. In 7 hours since full charge and the phone is at 47%. Maybe 5 photos, no more than an hour of screen time and an hour of youtube streaming with the screen off (listening while exercising).

Keep going back and forth about returning it and getting the iPhone 13 Max.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] freeflyer:
Do i need to install an app to do that?

Nothing makes sense with the 6. In the battery estimation in the phones setting (may not be accurate) at 90% the non pro 6 states over 2 days usage. The 6 pro states 19 hours at similar battery level. Using accubattery, the non pro 6 says i'll get 12h SOT (i doubt this) but the 6 pro states 5h.

Battery levels are now levelling off however, the non pro 6 is at 90%, the 6 pro is at 85%.

My battery was solid on my 128gb and the same is true on my 256gb. Today is my first day on it, and it's giving me the same type of battery life. Best of all, it hasn't had time to learn my pattern. Even so, I got over 17 hours of battery with over 6 hours of talk time and over 3.5 hours of screen.

I took the phone off the charger around 6am, used GPS, listened to podcasts for hours, talked on the phone for hours, did some web browsing, played a game a little bit, and did more GPS and never touched a charger today.
