[Vivo X70 Pro+] josecleocir:
Hi Everyone, I had bought mine X70 Pro + last month and it arrived yesterday. However, it is running with Origin OS instead of Funtouch OS system.

Is it possible to flash/switch to Funtouch OS?

I ask that, because Origin OS is very very terrible, it lacks a lot of personalization, misses most apps notifications, a lot of bugs.. Idk if I could consider this phone as my daily driver

On all videos I've watched on Youtube about X70 pro+, they were running Funtouch OS, so it exists for this phone, but can we flash it? Had anyone tried it?

Thank You,
[Vivo X70 Pro+] treoking:
You have this information in the other posts of this forum... Is not possible to open the bootloader, so for now there is not possible switch to Funtouch.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] josecleocir:
There is a user called razor07b7 from x60 Pro+ forum that could sucessfully switch from Origin OS to Funtouch OS, but that was on a x60 Pro+ device..

https://xdaforums.com/t/cn-rom-change-to-global-rom.4325185/page-2

We might be too early to expect this change for our x70 Pro+ since it has just launched a few months ago, but there is a high possibility in the future :D

I just looked quite a bit into the update_script and found this:

assert(getprop("ro.vivo.hardware.version") == "PD2145F_EXMA" || getprop("ro.hardware.bbk") == "PD2145F_EXMA");
ui_print("travel Verify operation begin");
getprop("ro.vivo.oem.name") == "" ||
getprop("ro.vivo.oem.name") == "PD2145F_EX_N_NULL_NULL" ||
getprop("ro.vivo.oem.name") == "PD2145F_EX_IN_NULL_NULL" ||
abort("Package expects oem name of or PD2145F_EX_N_NULL_NULL or PD2145F_EX_IN_NULL_NULL; this device has " + getprop("ro.vivo.oem.name") + ".");
if getprop("recovery.gui_mode") == "1" && getprop("recovery.repair_mode") == "0" then

The package is expecting : PD2145F_EXMA or PD2145F ...

The Origin OS is: PD2145_CN-ZH_FULL_SC_NULL

Chinese Hardware stamp is: PD2145MA

You can look yourself into with SetEdit aviable via Playstore.

I didn't try to change the script and test... But, if anyone wanna try, it is probably easy to change the "update_script"...

Maybee i need to mention that i'm not a programmer or any alike :p

Just my 2 cents
[Vivo X70 Pro+] josecleocir:
Looks like that if we change it, it might work :D

Can anyone give a try on this? I'm not an Android/developer expert 😅

Thanks!
[Vivo X70 Pro+] AMDFenics:
Hey again, sorry for the late reply, where a bit busy.

So i asked Vivo Support directly... What a surprise - it doesn't seem possible:

Sooo, i did a bit experiement with the Update_script

I added some lines, that equales to our chinese phone.

!!! First - I DIDN'T TEST THIS ROM - NOR THE SCRIPT !!!

!!! ALL YOU DO IS ON YOUR OWN !!! IM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY FAILURE !!!

!!! The phone could end in a bootloop or even worse !!!

LINK to the Testrom

Maybe worth a try... -> Link

Pictures of the changes are attached.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] josecleocir:
Hello, thank you again for you effort on this, it certainly would help several ppl that has the Chinese version.

Does anyone want to give a try to flash it and report back here on the thread? :p
[Vivo X70 Pro+] DJorgio:
@josecleocir Have you tried it yet? :)
[Vivo X70 Pro+] Killuminati91:
I dont have big enough balls to try it BUT if you dont break the recovery with that you can always download and flash the original ROM via WIFI in the recovery. Just need to understand chinese or a second phone with google translator.
[Vivo X70 Pro+] AMDFenics:
Still nobody tried yet :D
[Vivo X70 Pro+] AMDFenics:
Well i tried myselft, both official ways. While in System, it connects to vivo online database and recognize checksum error. Yeah, changed the script. So tried via recovery... same here - somehow it recognizes the same, without internet connection. Some text about third party update... :rolleyes:

well, thats what google translator told me :)

[Sony Xperia 1 III] Atilla6775:
Im getting around 8 hours sot which is great but i noticed that when it's on stand by, the battery drains with 2%/hour. On my note 10+ it was 0.5%/hour. So I tested a lot of things and I found out that when i turn on airplane mode (wifi on or off doesn't matter) that it drains only 0.4%/hour. It's even better than the note 10+. So it must be caused by the cellular but I don't know how to fix it. I didn't even use mobile data. Does anyone know what to do?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] ShinichiYao:
Try this. And force 4G mode

View attachment 5473489
[Sony Xperia 1 III] kevinmcmurtrie:
Welcome to the advertising and spyware driven wasteland of modern tech. I disabled background cellular data for a ton of apps that have no approved business using it, and that cut the drain significantly. Intermittent cellular data also consumes more power in NSA 5G mode.

I still can't block Sony's Game Engine and it's moving hundreds of MB without being turned on.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Mazellat:
I use naptime, I tested it to night. Phone spent %6 for 8.5 hour.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Atilla6775:
I found the solution. I have don't disturb option and data saving ON. In don't disturb option i exclude some apps and all calls and messages because I need them. So I only get notifications from apps i want to. The data saving app limits apps from using internet in the background. With this i get 0.4% battery drain on hour with cellular and wifi.

[Sony Xperia 1 III] Deleted member 1755208:
download ADB AppControl

and uninstal or disable whatever u need
[Sony Xperia 1 III] decomposed:
I remember few xperias ago it was taking 1-2% of battery for entire 8h night.

What is happening with new xperias now :(

Don't tell me 0.4%/h is good result with all those restrictions. This should be without restrictions.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] akitomartin:
With this latest update the battery drain got worse: 2% per hour. I have tried as they have commented here to use the data saver, now I am in 4G (5G, 120hz refresh off) but the only way to stop this drain is to activate Stamina mode (Which restricts the functions too much). In stamina mode the off screen general consumption is 0.3%. and I don't use games, only messages and occasionally Twitter.

I have also tried Factory reset and Repair from the Xperia companion but the results are the same.

What is the point of having all these functions: 120hz , 5G, if we cannot use them? We can't even leave the phone on standby because it consumes more than it should.

Thank you guys!
[Sony Xperia 1 III] JDC2389:
Root, debloat, and install Freaks custom kernel, greenify rogue apps that you still need etc. The drain will get better! ;)
[Treble-Enabled Device Questions and Answers] phhusson:
A-only/AB was used for historical reasons, because it was true on Oreo devices. But since then, Google calls Android 10 devices non-SAR (because they boot on initramfs, even though afterwards yes system is root), and sar property is set to false on those devices. So you can't just go around saying sar/non-sar, it'll a bit more correct, but still not correct. I could have switched to a "SAS" vs "SAR" naming convention (system-as-system VS system-as-root) but well I didn't have time

For your second question, yes that's the whole idea of "A-only GSI". No Android requirement is perfectly strict. Android requirements says you must have an x86 or an ARM, yet there are RISC-V Android. Android is opensource, you do whatever you want with it. Yes they are only meant for "method A" devices.

As for aosp_arm64 vs aosp_arm64_ab, the `_ab` refers to legacy ab devices, which have less requirements wrt properties
[Treble-Enabled Device Questions and Answers] Quigley:
Thanks that clears up a whole lot. Except for the _ab part, but I guess we just have to view that just as a suffix for a legacy build target.
[Treble-Enabled Device Questions and Answers] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
OP, this is an exceptional outline and analysis of SAR, the A/B partition scheme, A-only versus A/B, and their individual and collective relevance to GSI enabled devices. I have a question regarding Android 8.x Oreo and the applicability of A/B seamless updates. You stated that Android Oreo did not have seamless updates. I was of the understanding that the A/B seamless updates feature was first introduced with Android 7.0 Nougat, although at the time only Pixel devices actually had the A/B partition scheme. So, did Android 8 Oreo not include seamless updates for a particular reason? Thanks again for the great outline.
[Treble-Enabled Device Questions and Answers] Quigley:
@Viva La Android You're right, seamless updates were already there in Android 7. Still Treble started with Android 8 if I'm not mistaken, so GSIs were not relevant before then, so I guess I just went from there. But indeed, my statement that Android 8 did not have seamless updates was just wrong, and poorly worded by me. I changed that paragraph to clear it up. I also put some more "single slot" / "dual slot terminology" in there as well so as to have an alternative naming scheme from "A devices" / "A/B devices". I hope I didn't make a mistake. It's easy to make a mistake with such a confusing naming scheme. ;)

And thanks for the praise, I'm glad it's useful!
[Treble-Enabled Device Questions and Answers] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
You are quite welcome, and thanks again for the detailed and comprehensive outline of such a haphazard set of Android topics. Thank you for your clarification on my question.
[Treble-Enabled Device Questions and Answers] PayinIndiAzzTech:
Hi Seniors,

I came by this thread merely 2 years late :-/

I had a question I was wondering if you guys would oblige to guide me. Its kind of same A-AB partition related question so maybe I'm at the right place.

I picked up a 3 year old SM-A71F Samsung Galaxy A71 8/128 GB which originally came with Android 10 Out-Of-Box but since the seller upgraded it to July 2023 Android 13 Firmware, Only one Custom ROM Boots (NcX ROM) which is Stock based. So when I try to flash (Treble Github Phh GSI List ROMs ) A13_arm64_BvN_GSI using Chondoe Flasher its stuck on Samsung logo.

The TWRP Recovery provided for this model does not have the options to wipe System, Product, Vendor partitions. TWRP Full backups are able to restore perfectly though. When I try to wipe System partition using TWRP Terminal commands ># su ># wipe partition system, I get errors like- 'system' not in fstab & 'system' not in /proc/mounts.

I'm guessing the TWRP Developer afaneh92(xda account disabled) had made the system/vendor/product partitions non-modifiable which is kind of revealed in the file>/proc/mounts which mmentions that the file is modified and it is meant to be RO.

So my Question is will Treble A13_a64_BvN_GSI work instead of Treble A13_arm64_BvN_GSI?

Treble Check App shows the device is Treble compatible with an A-Partition scheme but Magisk 26.1 App does not show any SAR info only Ramdisk YES.

[Google Pixel 6] tmrmn:
I own the Pixel 6 now for a few days and day by day I'm more disappointed with my decision.

In general the phone is just too heavy and thick for a 'non pro' phone. I wish they stayed smaller like in previous generations.

But what really shocked me today is the video quality of the front camera in video chats (WhatsApp in my case).

It's just super zoomed in and blurry. I look like a bearded baby. Even my 4 year old OnePlus 5 performs way better. Did you make the same experiences? Do you think this can/will be fixed in future updates?

I'm seriously considering selling it again and getting a Pixel 4a or OnePlus 9 instead, also hoping for better battery life.

There is just so many little things, like the fingerprint reader, that make this phone feel half baked and not stand up to its price tag. Are you guys happy with the purchase?
[Google Pixel 6] Ves:
I'm happy but if you aren't just trade it for something else.

Don't hold on to something you don't like or have too many issues with.
[Google Pixel 6] 96carboard:
Does that software allow you to zoom out? A *lot* of camera software assumes that 1.0 is the minimum zoom level, but these cameras zoom out to 0.65 on the away-facing camera, or 0.9 on the at-you-facing camera.

That's really weird it seems to be only my TV in the living room, strange, must be whatever panel the TV is using

Edit: tried uploading a pic of my son's TV but it tells me my file size is to big :/

But this TV is fine
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] fonix232:
Have you tried rotating the phone (like, portrait, landscape, reverse landscape, etc.)?

The TV might be using a polarising layer that simply conflicts with the camera for some reason. My P6 Pro for example works fine for every screen I've tried shooting so far, EXCEPT the main info display in my building's lobby, which has different colours disappear at different angles. E.g. in portrait it doesn't have any green, in landscape (turning counter clockwise, power and volume buttons on top) it doesn't have any red, etc.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] kevinireland11:
I tried that there, I did see some colours come through the lens but then back to blue, it's weird because when I don't focus on the TV then point the camera back fast I see full colours but then the colours turn blue, I done this via landscape to, stays colourful for about about 3 seconds then goes all blue, strange, maybe it's a cheap panel with poor LEDs or more blue led pixels than red or green?

Edit: my son's tv is perfect, it's defo a cheaper panel then
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] KOLIOSIS:
I got the same thing when snapping a Pic on my desktop PC. I thought nothing of it at the time, as it wasn't for my personal use.

I'll try it again when the opportunity arises, see if I can repeat the effect.

@kevinireland11

Update on the blue screen effect.

My memory was a little fuzzy on that....

Turns out, I saw that when snapping a Pic of my other phone's IMEI/Serial number hidden menu.

Just tried it out w/both my Google Pixel 6 PRO & Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3, was able to replicate w/both, but only in that scenario with both in dark there.

Placed both phones in non-dark theme & I could not replicate while snapping pix of the same IMEI/Serial number hidden menus.

Snapping pix of my TV/PC also produced normal pix.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Shadeclan:
So, I've seen some posts concerning this and, at this point, I'm ready to purchase and replace the motherboard.

My daughter recently acquired a used Moto X4 (running Android 9 "pie") from a friend and she wants it de-Googled. I can get the unlock data to unlock the bootloader but Motorola says that the phone is unlockable - that would be because the phone had been purchased from Amazon (software variant / channel = "amz"). I think that if the ROM and bootloader could be replaced with stock (which, apparently could be done if the phone were on a lower Android version), I'd be in business but everywhere I've looked says that this is impossible - Motorola must do an amazing job of locking down their phones!

Since I'm just about ready to purchase a new motherboard ($60+ at cellspare), any "dangerous" suggestions are welcome since she refuses to use the phone as-is - can't say that I blame her.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Kilogrm:
You could try to flash the phone with the stock ROM of the google FI variant, but whether or not that works would be anybodys guess as I don't believe the IMEI would be changed. If you are planning to get a new device anyway, it couldn't hurt to try it and see before you buy another phone. I have the google Fi variant, and I know for a fact that the bootloader can be unlocked on it.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Shadeclan:
I have tried loading different ROMs onto a locked Motorola phone in the past - the bootloader will not permit itself to be overwritten without being unlocked. As I understand it, there's a hidden partition where a copy of the bootloader resides and, with the locked bit set, any attempt to overwrite the boot partition will trigger a check against the hidden partition and will prevent the overwrite.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tyguy:
I have a weird problem with my USB port (I assume it's PC related but...?).

I can connect and sync my kaiser with a std or the HTC USB cable but if I cradle it in the Seidio or connect the 3-1 adapter I get the response "unknown USB device". Strange enough is that NONE of the two is charging. At other PC's it sometimes works, sometimes not. I assume my USB drivers of my Dell Optiplex are toast but how to reinstall...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pyraxiate:
Well, start with checking to see if under settings------->connections-------->"usb to pc ", the usb to pc option doesnt have " enable advanced networking functionality" checked ( enabled ). That will most times cause issues with activesync connecting and especially prevent USB charging.

Next, check to see if actvesync is set to use USB as an active connection type under its settings.

Delete any previous activesync pairs you may have and try to reconnect. I somehow doubt its your drivers but the best way to check is to just go to Microsoft.com, navigate to their downloads section, and download a new copy of activesync.

One last thing to check. Some roms have a battery option (settings ----------> power-------> battery tab ) that doesnt allow charging when connected to a PC. Make sure that is NOT checked.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tyguy:
Thanks for your reply.

This can get achieved by

either

adding SU binary to Android's filesystem

or
