[Shift General] doni:
I personally think the Shift is better looking than the UX and more functional (at least for my use), but that's a personal preference. I never considered the UX and not because of money considerations (as a matter of fact, I never considered UMPC, and still wouldn't if it wasn't for the Shift, so yeah, it has notable features and a form factor that works for me better than most out there).

On XP, the Shift runs fast and with no issues. I wouldn't watch a bluray disk on it even if I could. There's no point. I wouldn't care for a bluray on anything less than 46in, whoever sees the difference on such a small screen is just buying in the hype.

As for DivX on the Shift with XP, it plays smooth and with zero issues. I tested a few ones, one of them was the Incredible Hulk, avg bitrate of 1400kbps video and ac3 5.1. Watched a few high action scenes (here the bitrate would be well over the average) and it played as smooth as anything out there. And I had running evertyhing at the same time, e.g. turecrypt (full hdd encryption), eset security (antivirus and firewall), o&o defrag (in stealth mode), even google desktop (which btw on vista was enough to cripple the shift) and a few other things.

You don't need a hardware decoder for DivX/XviD with even a processor like on the Shift, it wouldn't make sense to (besides, hardware decoders have limitations and would have issues with some encoding settings used). MPEG-2 decoder, maybe. The processor is absolutely no issue for divx/xvid, whoever says otherwise doesn't know what they are talking about. There would be issues because of other non-efficient programs that might be running or OS like Vista. If you would have issues with it, it won't be for playback, but for encoding which would take a long time (but why would you do that on the Shift anyway). I'm still playing XviD movies on my 7 year old machine with no issues.

However, I'm using a rather effecient (if not the best) decoder, ffdshow and also mplayer classic (the best one imho), both of which should perform well in

slower machines.

P.S. I'm not saying the Shift is perfect, it ain't by a mile and with just a little more effort it could've been much better. I would've paid even more for SSD, better and more efficient processor and better battery life. But when it comes to form and features, that's what I needed, too bad HTC's execution wasn't very good.

Hi everyone, i'm new here and my friend recommended that i ask for help before i brick my new box that i bought (X96 Mate 4gb/64gb H616 CPU)

i would like to change the basic launcher that comes with it with the original Android TV 10 or 11

if it's possible someone could give me a link for Android TV 10 or 11 ROM or a custom ROM for that particular device and the necessary tools to flash it and maybe couple steps to walk me through on how the process should go, if you please

thank you so much and have a delightful day

Hi,

Kind of an odd question, but I'm just wondering does anyone know if there's any other protective plastic I need to remove from the phone after removing it from the box other than the large white film on the screen? From what I see it doesn't look like it, but just want to confirm. Thanks!

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 / S7 Plus Questions & Answer] multim366:
Hello, since the Android 12 OneUI 4 update, when connecting Tab S7 to external display, the option to use your tablet as touchpad is no longer available (the notification doesn't appear). Anyone else encountered this?

You can see it's happening to everyone here on Reddit too.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] TDP95:
Hi,

I noticed with Android 12 there's a new feature to block camera and microphone access. I like to keep these blocks enabled unless I'm using an app that explicitly needs to use the camera or microphone. I noticed though that when receiving a call I had to unlock my device to unblock the microphone. I am wondering what happens if someone needed to use my phone to make an emergency call? Would the microphone be stuck blocked as they wouldn't know my password to unlock the device? Or, for emergency calls is the microphone automatically unblocked?

If anyone knows what would occur it's appreciated! Thanks!
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I would guess that yes, the microphone would be blocked unless it was unlocked. I doubt if the permissions given pays attention or makes any difference what kind of call you're making. I could be wrong, though. Occasionally they set things up in a smarter way.

It's unfortunate that we don't have a way to test such things without breaking the law.

I'm not clear on where you changed the permission that causes that. Could you show a screenshot of the proper place? These are where I looked. The second screenshot is of where I got to when I searched in Android Settings for "microphone". I haven't changed them from the default settings. I know the microphone works with anyone I talk to from the lockscreen (such as incoming callers). It's set, of course, to allow the microphone for the Phone app only when the Phone app is in use.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Lughnasadh:
Apparently you can still make emergency calls with it toggled off.

"Now that you can turn off the camera and microphone entirely in Android 12, there are two toggle switches that you can add to the Quick Settings menu, which you access by swiping down from the top of your phone's screen.

Toggling these settings on will not grant all apps access to your microphone or camera, but only those apps to which you have already granted individual permission. Emergency calls will be able to override toggled-off microphone and camera switches."

Hello guys,

Is anyone facing the problem to move and transfer from Android phone to computer system? Does anyone solve this issue? I am also facing the same problem. I want to transfer large size files (movies) from my Android mobile to my laptop. Give me some solutions to move data between phone and laptop without USB cable.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:

[General Questions and Answers] kellystams:
Will it require internet? Is it safe app?

Edit: I don't think any free app are working. You may need to use USB cable to transfer data.
[General Questions and Answers] nazhai:
Can't you do that via USB cable in MTP mode? If no, try to ask for help from a third-party program. Usually, such tool can help us to access videos and other data on the Android phone and transfer them to the computer easily. My suggestion is Coolmuster Android Backup Manager. Its backup function can help us do that easily and for free. About the details, please search online. Hope this will be your help.
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
You need to load the Windows driver to do that.

Windows may already have a driver.

Example, if you have a Samsung installing SmartSwitch loads the driver. After the driver is loaded...

go to Disk Management, and scan for new devices. If the Android drive(s) are shown access them directly in this window. You can transfer files and folders.
[General Questions and Answers] ciyan38284:
It's an paid program. But I need a free program.
[General Questions and Answers] nazhai:
The backup function is free to use.
[General Questions and Answers] bobii:
Upload the data to your Google Account to then use them on your computer.

Use a chat app that’s accessible on your computer to transfer file.

Or use some 3rd party tool, such as AirDroid,.MobiKin, Xender...
[General Questions and Answers] innocent546:
If MTP transfers (Typical USB transfers) are unstable, you can try using FTP over a local network (Your home WiFi router, USB tethering). This method is way more stable than MTP. Once configured, it can be easily used.

For security, use this guide only on home networks. Otherwise, take security precautions

Install an FTP app on phone - install Amaze File Viewer (free, lightweight, FTP available with a good file viewer)

Connect both mobile and PC into the same network. (For example, You can either follow step 2 or step 3. Otherwise, you can use any other method to connect these devices to a network such as wifi-direct)

Connect the phone to the PC using a USB

Connect phone and PC using a cable

Enable the "USB tethering" option in phone settings. (Usually faster)

Connect both phone and PC to the same router using WiFi or cables. (Fast with a good router and a good phone)

Connect the phone to the router

Connect the PC to that router

This method doesn't consume your internet quota even if your connection is limited.

Open FTP Server from your FTP app on your phone -

Open the Amaze app

Open the left pane by clicking the menu icon on the top left corner

Select "FTP Server"

Configure FTP server settings

Click the options icon on the top right of the FTP server page of the Amaze app

Disable secure connections, Read only access, etc...

Click logins and disable anonymous login

fill in some user detail (eg: username="abc", password="bcd")

Click start to start the FPS server.

It should display an URL address like "URL - ftp://192.168.42.129" and a port (such as port- 21).

The link should have "ftp" instead of "ftps"

Otherwise, disable the "secure connections" option in settings and restart the server (stop then start again).

View files from windows explorer

Open windows explorer

Type or paste the link you obtained in step 6 in the address bar

Windows explorer will then ask you for login details

Fill in the details you configured in step 5

If everything went fine, you will be able to browse your files using the familiar windows explorer view. It might take some time to load. You can copy, delete, rename or move files as you wish.

Make sure you recheck the login details and link every time you change the connection or settings. After changing any setting on the Amaze app, try stopping and starting the FTP server again. You can also change the "shared path" of your phone in the Amaze FTP server settings.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tulving:
Hi guys,

I bought a brand new Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G and sent all data via direct usb cable and SmartSwitch app, from my old LG V30+.

The SmartSwitch gave an alert, that WhatsApp data cannot be sent, and I have to use the builtin WhatsApp restore feature from the Google backup.

So I did, and everything seems perfect.

But now, I see that the WhatsApp media folders on the new device, are duplicated. They are not only on the root of internal memory, but also on the Android/media/com.whatsapp subfolder, for example the "WhatsApp Images" folder for images is both on:

/storage/emulated/0/WhatsApp/Media/WhatsApp Images/

and

/storage/emulated/0/Android/media/com.whatsapp/WhatsApp/Media/WhatsApp Images/

If I compare them, the numbers of files is not the same, and I can't understand if I have to mantain both, or if I can delete one without losing files.

Thanks a lot!

First I ask for excuse for my bad English. I have a problem with my XDA. Whenever a phone call comes, an appointment(date) reminds, or an SMS, then the touchscreen intervenes, and find it, before I get it from the belt pocket, unintentional actions instead of.

I have the AnswerkeysDisablerv0.5 already on it, and now with phone calls it is completely OK, but by the other actions it is bad.

Is there a programme(program) what closes the touchscreen always, until the key is pressed on top the device?

All the same which action happens?

Maybe infers with the AnswerkeysDisabler, can be accepted(assumed) thus the phone calls?

Many thanks for the help.

Hi, I recently was moving stuff from my parents house and I found my old S4 in the closet.

Now I wanted to ask, how can I install an Android 11/12 GSI firmware via TWRP on that phone.

I heard that you have to install some Android 10 AOSP firmware first and after this flash the GSI ROM but I got stuck in the Samsung logo and got thrown into Download or Recovery mode after 4 minutes.

Does anyone know how to flash such an Generic System Image on a S4?

I'm not sure but I think my S4 might have a Exynos CPU and maybe this is causing that issue.. idk...

Hi, have been reading posts here, but I'm trying to get a grasp on all involved to root my phone. I am pc literate but this is all new.

One site I got instructions on, https://www.thenextdroid.com/root-motorola-moto-g-play-2021-pc-via-magisk/, does not mention unlocking Bootloader with magisk~ just run magisk. Zip, Android it's rooted.

So my question, is that does the magisk v23 unlock Bootloader for you, or was that nugget just left out of this article?

I am obviously not new to this so would appreciate any counsel on this~ it does seem too easy 2 be right, but would appreciate some verification.

Thanks in advance

Thanks in advance
[Treble-Enabled Device Questions and Answers] Skippy12359:
If you are referring to GSI's and your A-only device support's SAR (system as root) then you should be able to flash A/B GSI's. I've read A-only builds have been discontinued with release of A12. I think of ROMs as a full OS build made for a specific device where as GSI's are a generic system image that can be flashed on any compatible device.

Hello everyone, I bought a bricked TicWatch Pro 4G couple of days ago in the hope of fixing it.

I didn't know the exact model but it seemed to be of the Chinese variant and the bootloader was unlocked by the previous owner, I did manage to install a US Stock ROM and it did work, the watch work normally now except that the heartrate sensor is not working neither on tic pulse app nor on third party apps and the other thing is the battery indicator which always show 50% no matter how many hours I charge the watch or how many hours I used it.

View attachment 5508165

This is a screen shot from the Wear OS app that showing a constant 50% over night and it's also showing the same in the watch as well

View attachment 5508167

The watch continue to work until the battery dead and the watch shut down without a warning because it's always showing 50%.

Any suggestions and does anyone else encountered such a problem, the watch model is WF11026 and it's currently running version 2.33 of Wear OS with November 2020 patch.

[Xiaomi Mi 11] steve1221:
Hi everyone,

I've just flashed a new Mi 11 with the EU rom running MIUI 12 & android 11.

I've installed Nova and now I can't remove it!

The normal method of long press in the icon gives the menu 'share /app info/uninstall' but hitting uninstall just removes the icon for second and then it's back.

In settings I've force stopped it and cleared all data but there's no uninstall option.

I've gone the Store route and that just says is has to be deactivated but the option isn't in settings!

I've checked under Security > Authorization and Nova not listed (if that's the right place to look?)

I've tried to uninstall it with adb and that fails with 'Delete_failed_device_policy_manager'.

The main problem I have with it, is it's dock won't disable. The toggle to switch it on/off in setting doesn't do anything, so it's there on every launcher I install and on the stock launcher.

can anyone please suggest how I get rid of it?

Many thanks.
