Hi guys .

I downloaded this version of Gcam it work fine then others but I really only needed it for the slow motion and it doesn't work the 1/8x

and 1/4x same they record normal video not slow motion and for the 1/4 when I chose the 1.0 lens it freeze and if I start recording it will stop after 4 second and say ((video not saved , recording time too short)) I did many things that many people suggest but it didn't work I want to use it as I said before for slow motion on 0.6 lens but I didn't get any luck , and I tried many others Gcam with same problem .

my device is mi 10t pro . I hope someone out there know how to fix it or find way to make it work .

Hello,

my phone needs a new battery. After looking around i have seen that the 9T has a 4000mAh (BP41) battery. Is it possible to use it in my mi9?
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] AcmE85:
This is what you want:

https://www.aliexpress.com/i/1005002939926667.html

LEHEHE BM3L 4000 mAh​

I'm using it for several months now without issues. I've got it due to multiple recommendations on telegram.

So far I didn't see any negative feedback for it.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] Qidamin:
You can just replace your battery with a compatible one. The one from the 9T shouldn't be compatible. Also I suspect all other batteries with higher capacities than the official one are just fake advertising. I have actually one 7000mAh and it is no more than 3300. But working ok though.

The mentioned battery by me isn't fake advertising, it's actually slightly thicker than the original battery. But thinking that a 7000 mAh battery would fit in the same space... lol

I have a rooted Oneplus 7 pro with android 11, but it has been lagging a lot lately, so I thought I might just unroot it and see if it helps. But, I don't have any access to a windows pc, I have a Mac.. So, I went searching the internet for a tutorial but I couldn't find any for Mac, but many guys mentioned that it could be done via Magisk by just uninstalling it. After doing so, my phone is now booting into fastboot mode only, showing the following :

Fastboot Mode

[Sony Xperia 1 II Questions & Answers] rudolf.s:
I just changed from Xperia 1 to Xperia 1 II, and I had yet another surprise from Sony: the contacts app is missing, and the Google Contacts app replacing it, is, well, crap. I tried installing the Sony Contacts apk both from apkmirror and also an extracted version from my old Xperia 1 (v. 1.7.31), but when trying to call a number, I get a message saying there is no app to make the call. The Sony Caller app works great, the Google Contacts app uses it as default, but I can't get the Sony Contacts app to work with it. What am I doing wrong? Is there any fix for that?

I would not like to use other Contacts apps, if possible.

Please help! :)

Thanks in advance!

Same issue on Xperia 5 IV. I installed Sony contacts apk, so much better than Google Contacts. The app works well, emails, sms, WhatsApp all work well but when trying to place a call I get the message: "No app found to handle this action". I also installed Sony Phone 23.0 apk (which works on its own) but I still get the same message from Sony Contacts.

Any solution?

[Samsung Galaxy S21 Questions] rkolech:
Hello,

I recently received a new company phone (Galaxy S21 5G SM-G991W)

It has the Google "Device Policy" and "Knox Enrollment Service" admin apps installed. The Play Store and most apps are locked out and cannot be installed.

I have tried the following:

Reset back to factory settings. Downloaded firmware from SAMMobile for my carrier and I used Odin3 to successfully flash it onto the phone.

Unfortunately when I was going through the initial setup as soon as I connected to WiFi the phone was once again locked down by my company policy. I have also tried to disable and uninstall the "Device Policy" app but I don't have permission to do so.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to ease up on some of these restrictions?

Where is or how do you access what they were calling "compass mode" in the videos ?
[G1 General] Mikey:
Should be in maps.

Under settings or menu, it should be one of the options.
[G1 General] punkzanyj:
open maps.

click menu>>Map Mode>>Street View. It will need to process for a sec or two. You'll see the streets start lighting up with a light blue border. I think this indicates they have a street view picture for that street at that location.

Click somewhere on the map to get a Street View. Click on the street view balloon. Street View will load.

When it is done loading, hit menu>>Compass mode.

You can now move your phone around and the accelerometer will adjust the phone's view as if you were actually there.
[G1 General] Master Loon:
Cool BEans!
[G1 General] Ryanmo5:

[G1 General] dagentooboy:
Compass mode would be cool... how is it on 3G? I don't have 3G here and it works great at home (WiFi) but on EDGE it seems to slow to be usable.
[G1 General] benmyers2941:
It's as smooth as WiFi on 3G, at least it was when I tried it.
[G1 General] nickmgray:
I have it a spin on 3G and edge over lunch today. 3G is really fast, takes a second or two to load the iamges. Edge takes about 10 seconds to load the images, but once loaded the spin around just fine when you move your phone.
[G1 General] theonlynickleft:
Never mind .. I found it. It is not called compass mode .. it is street view . . Great .. nice.
[G1 General] punkzanyj:
There is a compass mode, you just have to be in street view first to have it work.

With just plain street view you have to use the touch screen or the trackball to move the view around.

But with compass mode....you just have to move the phone and the accelerometer knows which way you're facing, and adjusts the picture to match. Tilt the phone up, and you see the sky and tops of buildings, tilt it down, and you see the road.

Hi, as the title suggests and I think most of us know who have a S7. The default BLF is dog shait. I was wondering if there's a fix for this mess that might not require root (as I'm using it as a work device). I've seen that there is a android native 'night mode' that's implemented in play books. Back in the days, toggling that would toggle the night mode globally.

Is there maybe a way to exploit this? just wondering.

[Mogul, XV6800 General] jambrose:
Have you tried to run the update again with it connected? That screen is the bootloader screen. You might check to see if someone made a NBH file for the VZW update. You can usually put that on a SD card and if it is named correctly the bootloader will install that ROM file.

U can take that file, extracts the contents to a folder using WinRAR, and then run the Rom Update utility. It'll be an exe, maybe RUU.exe. I forget right now. But If you're phone is in the tri-color screen and connected to your PC it should work.

[General Questions and Answers] valdonta:
I have a Samsung Galaxy A7 (T500) on fw BUJ1 which I rooted using magisk. It all seemed to work fine except a cpl of weeks later, there was an error of 'Enrolled knox guard prevent flashing factory binary(vbmeta)' in red, with a message of 'security error This phone has been flashed with unauthorised software & is locked'

I then re-flashed the stock version of this fw back on it and it boots as normal.

Problem is that I can no longer flash anything via odin. When I go to download mode and flash the patched fw, when the flashing process is almost complete it fails and the error 'enrolled knox guard prevent flashing factory binary(vbmeta) ' is displayed on the download mode screen and odin fails.

I also no longer have the oem unlock option in dev options, tho in download mode it does have 'oem lock off (u)' and 'kg status normal'.

How I can get past this error and how to get oem unlock to re-appear? (the date change stuff hasnt worked)
[General Questions and Answers] PresFox:
Hello,

I am playing around with an .apk, an existing program where I have no control over. Planning to try my hand at reverse engineering for fun.

However, I run into the following problem:

When I download the app from the google play store, it works. No issues.

When I download the app from the google play store, then copy the .apk file from the emulator to my pc, and then reïnstall it on the emulator, it does not work and crashes. This is without any edits.

Same goes with an apk downloaded via Raccoon, same app, using the same google account. Download directly on the emulator via play store, it works. Download with raccoon then install the emulator, it doesnt work.

One thing I noticed is that when I install the app from the play store, it is 170MB (using app info).

When I install it from raccoon, or after extracting the apk from the emulator, its only 70MB.

Something else I noticed: When downloading from raccoon, it also downloads 2 config apk's, however, I cannot install those on the emulator...

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
[General Questions and Answers] James_Watson:
It may be because the apps installed from the Play Store are genuine and reliable.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
@PresFox

my guess is you try to install some so-called Split-APK ( read: apps that are distributed as app bundles ). Because Android provides no built-in way to install them from sources other than Google Play Store you have to install them via Google Play Store.
[General Questions and Answers] xdabookam:
Thanks to @PresFox for the explanation of what's occurring here.

I often install base.apk apps from backups of /data/app done in a recovery shell and find they crash.

Most of the time, this can be rectified by restoring the missing files

from /data/app/com.SOME.APP/oat & lib folders (from recovery adb shell).

Although it works for me, can't say if its 100% reliable.

Hi guys does anyone know how we can limit voltage when we charge ur phone?

What i use is rooted phone with ACC + AccA ront end but some bug you always have to check because most time AccA doesnt apply limit voltage as i ask.

Any better solution?
[Google Pixel 6] neptun2:
Why you need to limit the voltage? If you want to help battery to stay in good health for longer you should limit the charge current instead. Easiest way to do that is to use older charger with lower wattage. I usually charge my pixel 6 from my laptop which has type c ports with usb power delivery support and are limited to 12 watts so charge current never exceeds 2.1 ampers. I have also tested my old power bank and cable and there power is limited to even lower 7.5 watts or 1.5 ampers of current.
[Google Pixel 6] lavoie005:
On battery university they said, the voltage from the charge is the problem not the amp speed, for example when your phone is at 3.8v(30%) and you charge with a quick charge 3amp at 4.05v(not 4.25v) you quickly recharge until 60%(4v) and you slowly and you reach 4.05v(+-70%) and you can let your phone charging longer you want the voltage never go over 4.05v and at 4.05v the said atfter 2000 recharge cycle you still have 90% of brand new battery capacity.

Your phone said full charge at 4.25v but with lithium ion it overcharging and that really dommage you battery life.

So in real is not the % of capacity because when you charge your phone to 80% diring the charge process the voltage use to charge is 4.35v and that is bad for the battery

BU-808: How to Prolong Lithium-based Batteries

BU meta description needed...

batteryuniversity.com

"Every 0.10V drop below 4.20V/cell doubles the cycle but holds less capacity. Raising the voltage above 4.20V/cell would shorten the life. The readings reflect regular Li-ion charging to 4.20V/cell."

Download:

twrp-3.6.0_11-0-barbet.img

This is my unofficial built, fully working with A12 with some remarks:

- internal storage decryption works but you have to set Screen lock to None or Swipe in Android Settings -> Security. If Pattern, Pin or Password are set storage decryption and MTP will not work until TeamWin fixes the code for A12.

- nandroid backup/restore works but you might need to reboot Android a couple of times after restore until dalvic-cache fully rebuilds. Until then you will see black home screen background instead of your wallpaper... Just keep restarting until everything is back to normal.

- DON'T MESS(WIPE) WITH METADATA in TWRP Advanced Wipe!!! If you do you can't boot Android until formatting data = factory reset.

DO NOT FLASH THIS TWRP IMAGE IN FASTBOOT!!!

Install TWRP form within itself after boot with fastboot.

Not tested on A11 so might have some bugs...

recovery.log and logcat are helpful.

To boot it connect USB and run these commands:

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot boot twrp-3.6.0_11-0-barbet.img

While in recovery you can install it permanently on the boot partitions by going to Advanced and pressing Flash current TWRP. Root will be lost so after that you have to reboot to bootloader again, fastboot boot your magisk patched boot.img, direct patch boot with magisk to get root back and reboot. Done. You have root and TWRP on device. To get to TWRP:

adb reboot recovery

Big thanks to @bigbiff, @Captain_Throwback and the entire TeamWin for their work!

[Google Pixel 5a] nijel8:
Thanks for the log.

What ROM are you running? Lineage? Looks like the kernel is the problem:

Linux version 4.19.110-dirty (bigbiff@nas) (Android (6443078 based on r383902)
clang version 11.0.1 (https://android.googlesource.com/toolchain/llvm-project
b397f81060ce6d701042b782172ed13bee898b79)) #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Feb 24 18:49:40 EST 2021

and the touchscreen drivers doesn't load:

modprobe: LoadWithAliases was unable to load ftm5.ko
modprobe: LoadWithAliases was unable to load sec_touch

Sorry, can't do anything about it... Use recovery with fastboot boot.

Confirmed, will look at it... As a workaround go to Mount and toggle disable/enable MTP and it'll work again.

Must be the kernel again... Works fine here.
[Google Pixel 5a] eriklion:
I hadn't even flashed Lineage yet.
[Google Pixel 5a] nijel8:
Is the recovery flashed or fastbooted? Also you did not answer what android you have.

Log shows recovery is flashed and trying to load touchscreen drivers from vendor partition. If it is fastbooted then something else is wrong, device reports normal reboot to recovery, not boot from bootloader and touchscreen drivers are messed up.

I will need recovery.log too.
[Google Pixel 5a] eriklion:
That was just your TWRP flashed to boot via fastboot, then reboot-bootloader then select recovery. that was with latest A11 build freshly flashed.
[Google Pixel 5a] InfoSecREDD:
I also couldn't get the touchscreen to work. I flashed using:

adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot_b twrp-3.6.0_11-0-barbet.img
fastboot flash boot_a twrp-3.6.0_11-0-barbet.img

I was softlocked to the Recovery partition until I flashed back..
[Google Pixel 5a] kingofnice:
fastboot boot ≠ fastboot flash boot

Am I missing something here?

Boot TWRP and then flash TWRP through it's advanced settings.
[Google Pixel 5a] V0latyle:
Yep, you're on track.

fastboot flash boot overwrites the /boot partition, including the kernel, so all you'd be able to boot to would be TWRP. To fix this, download the factory image and reflash the stock boot image.

fastboot boot twrp.img forces a "live" boot of TWRP via USB; to install it, you'd have to patch the boot image through TWRP settings.
[Google Pixel 5a] kingofnice:
It wouldn't be the likely culprit of the touchscreen issues being brought up, would it?
[Google Pixel 5a] InfoSecREDD:
Yeah forgot and ran the install script I usually use to install my boot.img.. But Idk about it stopping touchscreen inputs tho.
[Google Pixel 5a] nijel8:
Updated... Please redownload from OP

- fixed touchscreen not working on A11 ROMs(not tested but should work), please report...

- fixed MTP on reconnecting

Do not flash twrp-3.6.0_11-0-barbet.img!!! Install it form its Advanced meny ones booted with fastboot...
