[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] White T-Poison:
Hi. Thank you for the reply.

1 ) I have tried changing the region and it still was the same.

2) I don't have the option for disabling "Disable Absolute volume" in Bluetooth section paired device section, nor in the advanced settings, as shown in the screenshot below.

3) Mi Sound section is grayed out for me, even when the earbuds are connected.

I did notice that earbuds and phone are not synchronized. Volume of earbuds is adjusted separately to the volume of the phone. So how do I sync them? Please let me know.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Mr.SixSigma:
Hi,

To synchronize the volume of both devices, just enable absolute volume again, we already know that's not the problem, so do it.

MI 11T has atmos right? Change sound preset to video and try with the next set up in atmos settings.

Also, you can try disabling "sound enhancement" from game booster options.

If you have enabled absolute volume again, changed the preset to video, tried the setup in atmos settings, disabled the sound enhancement from game turbo, and the issue is not fixed, I can't help you, but I will be pretty sure that the problem will be the earbuds.

Edit: You could play with the sound codecs of developer settings as last resource.

[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] White T-Poison:
I enabled "Disable Absolute volume" as you said, and set the preset to Video as well. And this is as close as I could get with the equalizer settings (they're horrible to set). And there is a positive difference than before. But it still isn't as loud as before or with other devices.

And I couldn't find any "sound enhancements" in Game Turbo.

There is no option of Media Volume sync, as it is in Samsung. I tried looking it up and it said that it is now built-in Android 10 onwards? I don't know.

But I tried the earbuds with laptop, and they're so much better, just like before. And I change the Bluetooth codec to AAC, but it automatically reverts back to SBC. I don't know anything about audio or codecs. So any guessesView attachment 5565927View attachment 5565929View attachment 5565931
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] White T-Poison:
I think this option (Adjust sound to earphones) might help, since it looks like media sync option. But I don't know why Mi Sound is grayed out.View attachment 5565925
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Mr.SixSigma:
First, please resize the images you attached in the comments, are huge.

The "enhanced audio" option is in "Performance mode".

Now I remember MI Sound Option is only available for wire earphones.

Even if disabling Enhanced Audio from Gameturbo don't fix the issue , keep it disabled. If it is enabled, when you start some game or app that use game turbo, the sound turns to sht.

The absolute volume feature must be enabled to sync the volume of both devices.

Honestly, I have no idea what else could you try; well, yes, some equalizers have the option to artificially increase the volume, maybe that could solve the problem in some way.

In my experience, the loudness enhancer of Equalizer FX works very well.

If FX doesn't work, try the app "Boom" by GlobalDelight, It has a free trial, imo is the best app for music (super recommended for windows too), and when I use it, my head explodes if I turn up full volume.

[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] White T-Poison:
Sorry for the huge images. I new to posting threads, so I don't have much experience or etiquettes of threads.

I have turned off Enhanced audio and turned on "Disable Absolute volume", and still audio is not synced. And just increasing the volume isn't my goal. Rather I want it to work properly, as intended.

Anyways, do you think that the solution that I have linked in the original post, would work?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Mr.SixSigma:
Disable Absolute Volume has to be turned off, not on, I mean, you need to have absolute volume enabled.

Try with FX loudness enhancement, could work.

Idk if the post solution will work, but I think you need to try.

My wife has this phone as her hands are tiny and she can't quite hold and use any bigger phones. I've flashed some Lineage ROM waaay back and it seems she's having all kinds of weird troubles like freezing or complete UI mess-up.

[Samsung Galaxy S22] lirong:
Hi - I just got an S22 and am trying it and comparing to my S9 which I still love.

I was just using them side by side outdoors in direct sunlight and the S9 is MUCH easier to see. The S9 is totally viewable and the S22 is barely viewable. The S9 has much less reflection and everything is lighter and brighter on the screen.

Based purely on screen brightness I think this should not be the case? They are both on max brightness.

I am trying to see if there is perhaps a setting involved I am missing? Would be really disappointing as the S22 is almost not usable in the direct sunlight for me (granted I dont have the best eyesight).

Any suggestions? Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S22] blackhawk:
Try using auto brightness setting not manual.
[Samsung Galaxy S22] covfefe:
For what it's worth. I've compared my S21 and S22 side by side with the same settings, the S22 was much easier to see in direct sunlight.

I'd go through and make the settings are okay.

[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] vikram66778:
Hi.. Recently i debloated my brand new S22 Ultra of system apps via adb method. I think, since then, when i go into Accessibility settings and press on installed apps to give permission, it just backs out of that page or just pops a message saying "accessibility keeps stopping".. This happens when i press the following

Accessibility page :

talkback setting -- accessibility stops

visibility enhancements -- opens

hearing enhancements -- option opens but when i press sub divisions it forecloses

interaction & dexterity -- opens

advance settings -- opens but when i press options of side and volume keys, it forecloses

installed apps -- opens but when i press on apps, t closes

about accessibility and contact us options works fine..

Somewhere, in other posts, i read that removing samsung (via adb method) keyboard will cause this issue and will be resolved once u install it again but in my case it didn't help.

I did remove samsung keyboard accidentally, which i installed again but accessibility keeps foreclosing

If anybody has any idea, it will be greatly appreciated..

THANQ
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
Dependencies.

Many of the Samsung system apks just sit there, harmlessly, unless needed.

Be conservative with debloating, know what the apk does and what if any dependencies it has.

Post your list... see if anyone can spot it.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
Wow, you really went nutz. I can't spot the offender(s).

Some of those are complete junk but many others don't run unless needed.

One or more of those is a needed dependency... or it's a totally unrelated problem. Some of those Samsung apks I never have seen or altered. Names can be misleading or the apk may be dependent on a apk that seems totally unrelated.

I look closely at the disabled Samsung apks. That list will certainly destroy many Samsung features, some that are useful and that may have unknown dependencies.

Basically I go after the power hogs or junk that runs on start up. Some like Digital Wellbeing, the Kids stuff or the MS junk are a no brainer. Some of the Bixby apks aren't as straightforward. My list is about 76 apks and I'm using a package disabler so I can change them on the fly... or test them. One service I would kill is OTA updates, destroyer of worlds.

Try safe mode to rule out a buggy 3rd party app.

Clear system cache.

If that fails you'll need to make some hard choices. Factory reset and go with a more conservative list, doing small groups, checking before adding more.

Or painstakingly Google search each one and see if you can spot the one(s) causing this.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] vikram66778:
😟😞☹️

I always used package disabler apps but on Ultra, none off them worked properly. Thats y i had to go to adb method.. I think, i have to install all of them again and uninstall in small groups as u said..
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
This one has always worked. Been using it for over 3 years.

Even after 2.5 years I'm still exploring features I never used before on my N10+'s. Go after the obvious hogs and the apks you know are completely useless. Part of the fun of Samsung's is their feature rich environment.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] vikram66778:
I had to bite a bullet, did a factory reset.. Now everything is Peachy💩💩😇

now, is there any safe list of removable apps via adb method.!?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] vikram66778:
If somebody faces this issue, this is the culprit...

"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.samsung.SMT"

Don't uninstall this package on s ultra, or else ur accessibility stops working..
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
Yay! Good find! Oddly I have this disabled on my N10+'s but it doesn't behave exactly like your's does.

Hearing enhancements appears fully functional.

I'll probably leave mine disabled as I don't use speech to text at all. For my devices it may introduce vulnerabilities.

Best not to touch those little Samsung system apks. Starting with Android 10 many new ones were added as work arounds to the changes Google made to the OS. Many control the UI and appearance it seems.

My N10+'s Android 10 vs 9 variant has close to a hundred new small Samsung system apps added. I ignored them for now; they don't seem to interfere with battery usage. My disable list for both the N975U and the N975U1 are nearly identical in spite of the many new Samsung system apps.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] butchieboy:
You deserve major major thanks for this find. I always debloat with ADBappcontrol on all my devices. Did my usual on S22ultra my AODnotify stopped working and SMT was the issue. Thanks again, this was driving insane
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] vikram66778:
I don't understand why these apk's shd behave differently on different Samsung devices when the package name is same 🤔
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
Different Android versions. Scoped storage screwed up everything and degraded the functionality of many good apps.

Samsung may have modified the app itself because of this or for other insane reasons🤣 I've seen Samsung app updates and upgrades break and screw up perfectly good apps more than once*. Many of the Samsung and Google apps are still deliberately running on their factory load versions on my N10+/Pie phone.

*this happens all the time on Playstore for various reasons. My copy of WPS office is 6 yo and free. I use ApkExport to backup all my apps and don't use Playstore if I reload. Playstore updates are always disabled.

[General Questions and Answers] V0latyle:
I have a 9 yr old Alienware laptop that I bought long before the advent of m.2. It has a mSATA slot I'll be soon populating with a 512GB SSD. I currently have two 1TB HDDs installed; one of them is the OS drive. What I want to do is clone the Windows installation onto the SSD, then I can wipe the old OS drive and use it in RAID 0 with the other drive.

Can this be done while I'm running Windows from that drive? Or will I have to live boot something like GParted, which I'd rather not use because I don't know Linux commands?

Suggestions welcome.
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
Acronis is what I use.

However do not clone data like music databases or data drives, cut/copy them only.
[General Questions and Answers] V0latyle:

I don't have any media, just Windows.

Also, are you talking about Acronis True Image?
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
Just saying. Acronis will clone the whole OS disk including boot instructions like for Intel Matrix raid arrays flawlessly.

I never used it on a SDD... still in the stone age🤣
[General Questions and Answers] badabing2003:
Yes this can all be done in Windows and for free.

You can use Macrium Reflect.

Macrium Reflect Free Trials

Macrium Reflect - Incredibly powerful software that allows you to create and schedule effective backups

www.macrium.com

But I see that your current os drive is 1TB and you will be transferring that to 512 GB SSD.

I've done this and I know it can be done, it is a bit involved,

The easiest way is to install Macrium on your current system, make a partition backup of the OS partition

(I'm assuming that it is smaller than 512GB) preferably to an external drive

View attachment 5564799

Next create a windows install usb

unplug every drive and just plug the ssd. (this is required, otherwise windows installer will use the current drive's EFI partition and will not create one for the new install,)

Install windows

This process will create a similar partition structure as above image.

EFI System partition is what holds the boot info.

Now you have vanilla windows which we will replace with data from backed up partition.

The trick here is that you can't do it while you're running the vanilla OS

You would need to plug back the original OS, and do in there, however it is possible that if you plug back your drive, windows would still boot to the new drive.

bcdedit is your friend, to add / edit boot selections.

Once you boot to the old os, you run macrium and restore the backup as partition into the new drive's OS partition.

View attachment 5564805

lastly, you would want to run bcdedit to fix the windows bootloader info of the new drive, because the identifier will change and windows will not find it.

Yeah I know, I said it is involved, but it can be done.
[General Questions and Answers] V0latyle:
I was able to get ahold of a bootable Acronis image; that worked nicely. System is now running on the SSD. Thanks for the suggestion.

The problem I'm having now is, I want to extend the volume on Disk 1 (the other HDD) to the now-unallocated space on Disk 0. Both disks are dynamic; however for some reason every time I try to extend the volume it says not enough space is available. I can't even create a volume in the unallocated space so something somewhere must be mad at me.
[General Questions and Answers] badabing2003:
Can you post an image of your disks and their partitions / layout.

Just a screenshot of diskmanager or in acronis should do, so that it is clear to understand.
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
I wouldn't use dynamic disks.

I always use basic disks unless running something like Intel Matrix Raid. The data on those disks I consider expendable and is backed up as a clone in case of a crash.

Dynamic volumes are a legacy function in Windows.

Convert dynamic to basic.
[General Questions and Answers] V0latyle:
Spoiler content hidden.

is what I was trying to accomplish. Managed to break my boot configuration in the process. Nothing particularly important on those two drives, just games for the most part.

Spoiler content hidden.

is what the SSD partitions look like now. My OCD is bugging me. Sure, I could remove the last one and extend the OS partition to take up the space....but there is nothing I can do about the first one. Both used to be recovery partitions, which the boot configuration no longer recognized after cloning the disk.
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
Dynamic disks are trouble. I never use them.

Set up the fastest hdd (SSD in your case) as the OS drive only the OS and apps are loaded here, the other larger hdd as a data drive. Linking those drives as a dynamic disk would slow it down. I think you would use dynamic disks for multiple data drives. It's been 15 years since I looked at this and rejected using dynamic disks... so there's that🤣

To preserve the boot sector instruction set like for a Intel Matrix raid array you simple clone the whole disk with Acronis. This works on my Dell laptop; I'm running a cloned copy of the original hdd.

The problem maybe the SSD interface. I went with a hdd because it's an older Dell and there are interface issues I've experienced trying to integrate a hybrid SSD/hdd's. Just a guess as I haven't mucked with the setup in years.
[General Questions and Answers] V0latyle:
That's exactly what I'm doing. I have one SSD on which the OS is running. I also have two 1TB HDDs that now support a spanned volume. They're identical HGST 7200RPM drives. I'm not concerned with the drawbacks, I just wanted a convenient way to make both appear as one volume.

This wasn't really an option without resizing; the HDD that the OS was formerly on was one of the 1TB drives, and the SSD is 512GB. Cloning it don't break it though...

No...the problem was that after I used Acronis to clone the OS HDD to the SSD, I was then unable to remove the recovery and EFI partitions on the old drive. So, I booted Gparted, and just to be safe, copied them over again...which broke the boot configuration.

After I fixed it, I took a look in bcdedit and saw that I had somehow broken the path in the original boot configuration. So, until I deleted the original, I had two boot configurations for the same OS; the old one was just pointing to nowhere.

Now, the main issue I have (which isn't really an issue) is the recovery partitions, which Windows didn't recognize after the migration, and which are now gone. I could use Gparted to move things around so that there's only two partitions on the drive (EFI and OS) but I don't want to break things again. And, as far as I know, there is no way to recreate recovery partitions without reinstalling Windows.
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
I'm not sure why you want a spanned volume that large.

I always make the OS disk clone as small as possible If I can the OS partition to be cloned is 20gb to start with and make it 100-250gb on the destination drive. Then use the rest of the left over space after it's cloned to target drive to create another partition which I use as junk space.

I try to keep it rock stupid simple... less to go wrong. I need clones for backup but tired of making into rocket science. Just keeping track of my hdds is daunting enough.

With Androids I'm even worse which is one reason I avoid rooting. Fortunately an Android load is extremely long lived if you don't update/upgrade it🤣
