[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vistulack:
Hi,my first post on this forum, already with a problem of booting Win11 image from partition created on Mi 8 (NTFS partition).

I was guided by those three sources :

1) Original project Renage installation guide:

Renegade Project

Renegade Project

renegade-project.org

BTW Xiaomi Mi 8 is on supported decives list: https://renegade-project.org/#/en/windows/state-frame.html

2) this yt wideo about installing Win 11 on Mi 8 (unfortunately, in Russian and the youtuber is showing some tips too fast, so I had to slow it down to 0.25 in some parts)

3) yt tutorial about installing Win 11 on OnePlus 6T

So, I have manage to remove and create userdata partition, I have eacreated smaller userdata partion with 30 GB instead of 100-ish something GB,

I have created also \pe partition for WinPE boot (works from UEFI boot), \win (formatted in NTFS) with about 70-something GB, and ESP partition in FAT32.

The UEFI Boot for Mi 8 (device code: dipper) is not installed on the device, I am booting it by flashing it via fastboot (single time, the normal boot image on the device is still genuine boot.img from Xiaomi).

So, just like in the beforementioned guides / tutorials, I am able to boot WinPe (part English, part Chinese), able to start DISM+, able to open prepared Win11 disk (tried either on whole image or n single .wim file) and then:

1) I am asked for choosing a disk to install Win11;

2) I choose \win parttion in NTFS

3) I see window titled 'Bootmgr Repair-UEFI' with a message: 'Boot Partition: None Click more to specify it manually

4) If I choose NTFS partition, I see windwos titled "Tips" with message "If you boot with UEFI, it needs a FAT16/ FAT32 partition

5) I choose ESP Partition https://www.diskpart.com/articles/efi-system-partition-4348.html, install it, then install drivers; enabling Enable Test-Signing mode and reboot device with shutdown -s -t 0

After installation I reboot application -> no UEFI boot so i go to fastboot mode (by combinatin of buttons) from my PC i flash uefi dipper img i choose pption with Windws Bootloader from UEFI boot option, I am waiting and after a lot of time i see that there was a problem with installation of Windows.

What I am doing wrong here? Any thoughts?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h9419:
I know I'm late but I got past this point by running DISM++ on a computer instead of the device itself using mass storage mode described on https://wiki.renegade-project.cn/en/install. It was enabled for dipper in one of the RC of the uefi boot image.

I am however stuck at a blue screen where it just says my device ran into a problem and need to restart
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vistulack:
@h9419 hi, sorry for being late, but I've manage to go further steps with help on the Renegade Forum:

Open config '\simpleinit.static.uefi.cfg' failed. Not found. Config: load failed. device: Mi 8 dipper

Hi folks, I have installed win10 on my Mi 8 with drivers, but when I try to boot I see only K letter in a blue circle logo and message: main:initialize simple imp Open config ‘simpleinit.static.uefi.cfg’ failed. Not found Config: load failed and I’m going back to boot menu Besides of that I...

forum.renegade-project.tech

However, I have stuck now with blue screen and error:

"Your PC/Device needs to be repaired

The operating system couldn t be loaded because the digital signature of a file or of its dependencies couldn’t be verified

File:

\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\qcpil850.inf_arm64_51d4efc7c44baa30\qcpil.850.sys

Error code 0xc0000428

Press the Windows key for UEFI Firmware Settings"

I've received there some advice:"

If you flashed devcfg properly, you won’t get DRIVER_PNP_WATCHDOG anymore

If you successfully disabled testsigning and nointegritychecks using bcdedit, you won’t get 0xc0000428

Don’t use drivers from sdm845-drivers. They won’t work."

So I have checked testsigning and nointegritychecks using bcdedit:

Even after flashing fastboot flash devcfg_ab devcfg-dipper_FixTS.img

I still see “Open config ‘\simpleinit.static.uefi.cfg’ failed. Not found. Config: load failed”

DisableIntegrityChecks is set to True

and AllowPrereleaseSignatures also to True, but under BcdStore\Loaders\WindowsSetup

under {bootmgr} it’s only DisableIntegrityChecks, but without AllowPrereleaseSignatures

I’m a rookie regarding bcedit so I used Visual BCD Editor, should I add something in {bootmgr} or {bootloadersettings}? to the {bootloadersettings} I have no access from Visual BCD

I see structure of this partition like this:

BTW via Mass Storage mode I have access to the esp partition stored here via Windows64 as I:\ and with Visual BCD editor I have an option to ‘repair bcd’ but I don’t know what this can done, so I don’t touch it

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h9419:
@Vistulack I got it to work a few months ago after joining the telegram channel. My process is about as follows:

1. Dism++ clean install

2. Dism++ driver injection (I used dipper driver 1.1.1)

3. Dism++ disable

testsigning and nointegritychecks

4. Boot into fastboot to flash devcfg (re-flash it after every install, before trying to boot)

5. Flash boot image 1.1.1 (same version as driver) to recovery

6. Boot to recovery to boot windows, reboot to get android

Others have success with 2.0rc2 but I'm happy with 1.1.1. USB, cellular, wifi, Bluetooth screen brightness and touch screen works. Built in audio and accelerometer doesn't. USB C to 3.5mm DAC makes audio work and CH340 driver for Arduino knockoffs works.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vistulack:
Update:

thanks to @h9419 i have managed to succesfully install Win 11 on Mi 8 :)

To sum up:

This time I have install drivers in ver. 1.1.1 https://github.com/edk2-porting/WOA-Drivers/releases/tag/v1.1.1

and after installation of dism I have used not only:

bcdedit /store Y:\efi\microsoft\boot\bcd /set {Default} testsigning on

bcdedit /store Y:\efi\microsoft\boot\bcd /set {Default} nointegritychecks on

but also :

bcdedit /store Y:\efi\microsoft\boot\bcd /set {Default} recoveryenabled no

Also I wouldn't recommend using Windows 10 home, as screen keyboard wasn't working there; I came across error:

C:\Windows\system32\osk.exe

A referal was returned from the server

This error wasn't seen on Windows 11 Pro

During install, I had also a problem with WiFi connections, but after putting mobile in the near of router I was able to connect (this issue camu up only during setting account)

Anyways, now I have other problem.

If I press turn off while charging, either from Windows or bootloader level, I end up back in bootloader menu, without knowing what is the battery level is (in Windows is still shows 0%, which is odd, because phone is still running).

Now I need to check how to enable turning phone off when charging (or put it into charging mode, with only battery level shown).

EDIT: ok, it looks like the best mode to charge the phone is setting it to recovery mode.

If anyone was interested with installing some old apps build on Net Framework 2.0 or 3.5, it looks like it will not work on arm64 architectue.

After installing one of such apps, I saw and error

The following feature couldn't be installed:

.NET Framework 3.5 (includes .NET 2.0 and 3.0)

The changes couldn't be completed. Please reboot your computer and try again.

Error code: 0x80240023

I have tried to fix it using advices from this video

and managed to formally 'install' Net 3.5 by script in PowerShell from sxs folder copied into TEMP folder but now the app is showing message:

"An error occurred:

System.NullReferenceException: Object not set to an instance of an object."

So it looks like it won't work (or maybe on some Virtual Machine build on arm64 for i.e Win Xp or Win7, but it maybe an overkill...)

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Robrecht:
I just discovered -- accidentally -- that a standard mini USB plug not only fits in the Touch Pro's proprietary plug, but also charges and syncs normally!

To clarify (I hope):

* the Touch Pro's USB plug is shaped like this: l==/

* while a normal mini USB plug looks like this: \==/

Does this make sense? :-)

Like most people, I have lots of normal USB cables lying around, and only one HTC type thing... Can anyone tell if it's totally ok to use a standard mini USB cable instead of HTC's "special" one? It can't damage anything electronically?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] TomasNM:
Yes,that's normal thing it works. Different shape is present,because the same connector supplies also A/V signals. These pins are located opposite normal USB wires on the middle pin-plate(5 pins standard USB,6 pins Audio/Video). That's the difference and reason,why normal cable works with HTC devices.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] GaZ:
Also I think the reason it's shaped like that is to stop you plugging the HTC one into other devices. Could be wrong though
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Robrecht:
Thanks very much for this speedy answer!!

Cool, now I can use my collection of standard USB cables so I don't have to carry that one HTC cable around everywhere.

That makes sense. So HTC cable in normal USB plug: no, normal USB cable in HTC plug: yes.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] TomasNM:
Yes,the reason is that,you cannot use accessories(handset,adapters) on standart type models. Also all standart chargers are working,because charging pins are located on USB side.

Fuze Charging issues

Just to let eveyone know I originally tried to charge my Fuze using my old Tilt charger and the Fuze got hot and while it charged it took forever. I then switched to the charger supplied with the fuze and there was no heat and the devise charged very quickly. I don't know why but I thought eveyone should know
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Biglines:
the raphael charger is 1A, while most chargers are 300-500mA, hence the slower charging. The heat shouldn't be though... so check if you get a nice and clean voltage
[Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G] :
I've had this issue ever since I restored whatsapp backups, deleted everything regarding it. Now the phone heats up noticeably with NORMAL usage, and the battery drains way faster than normally. I have done a few factory resets, cleared cache then finally flashed stock rom with odin, using nand erase option.

But the issue still persists.?! Anybody more technical than me? Been through the whole internet searching about this issue and no avail, and visited service center 2 times where they claim it is an app when clearly it's not.
[Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G] koimr:
What does it say for your battery usage? Settings->Battery and device care->Battery->(tap on graph)

Also you said you've done some factory resets - it can take a few days for the adaptive battery usage to optimize itself after a reset.
[Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G] :
Yes, I installed whatsapp way back in march and this caused the problem to arise. Haven't touched it ever since.

Obviously TikTok using a lot of battery because I've been using it a lot. Installed or not, heating still occurs when using other apps. Neither is it microG, that has been using battery today unrelated to the draining issues.

And regards to the factory reset, they were done way back in march as well. I did wait until the optimization to sort itself out but nothing ever seemed to change. I had done a reflash through odin as well, making sure the storage gets completely wiped out.

The apps aren't at fault though. Before I had installed whatsapp, these apps you currently see did not have such massive draining or heating issues until installing wa. Neither did the issue go away after factory reseting or flashing the stock rom. All of this happens in safe mode too, I am not sure where to even begin with.
[Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G] koimr:
Ah ok, I see. Yes, that's more than enough time since your reset for the adaptive battery to figure things out.

How much is the drain overnight when you're sleeping?

Are you mainly on wifi or cell data? How strong are they for you?

Another thing you can try is dark mode and see if that helps at all as our screens use less power when showing black. I don't know how much of an effect that actually has though.

Also, if you haven't already, set your screen to 60Hz instead of 120Hz.
[Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G] :
Overnight drain is nonexistent. And I am typically on wifi when at home, outdoors using data. Both have full bars so I am sure it's not them.

Been on 60Hz the whole time, I dislike 120Hz :)

I've had this same problem on my previous S7 where it was more severe due to the exynos chip. I had a spare S7 edge not used by me, so I installed whatsapp and restored the backup, and the same issue I described began. That phone ran cool without lag, now suffering the same fate as my A52s. I flashed the stock rom on the edge as well and it didn't seem to fix the issue either.
[Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G] :
Sorry. I forgot to mention I had uninstalled whatsapp back in march, so the issue should be gone but it still persists.
[Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G] :
You don't need to be so aggressive to me. I know what I am here for and I am trying to get help after trying to fix this by going to the service center where they claim false stuff, and whatever I posted earlier. Read what I posted, TikTok is not causing it neither is any app causing it.
[Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G] :
Please read what I wrote above. Not tryying to start an argument here but sounds like you are trying to.

It does not matter if TikTok is installed or not. The same issue persists nevertheless and I already mentioned WhatsApp was not installed. Everything I mentioned above was tested by myself...

TikTok obviously is using a lot of battery because it has been on for a long time. Same thing, does not matter if it's installed the same heating and battery drain issue will occur in other apps. (Normal usage, not gaming or doing anything that stresses the phone)

What I am trying to gain here is advice to fix it, not asking for blaming on apps or useless advice because you never read my post.

https://www.reddit.com/r/galaxys10/comments/bfdbbz
This post is similar to what I am experiencing at the moment but for a different reason. Going to the service center isn't really an option anymore because they do not believe me and make up false reasons for this problem, and I am not a very confrontational person either.
[Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G] koimr:
I'm not a huge fan of these types of apps but one might point you in the right direction here - try and install something like AccuBattery and let it go for a few days. See what it says for battery usage.

It's been a while but I think there's an additional setting in the app (AccuBattery) that will enable the app to get more details, make sure you do that (was an ADB command if I recall).
[Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G] :
Absolutely, I will install it and let it run for a few days then report the results back here.

Did you try enrolling to Whatsapp's beta program or sideload the latest beta from apkmirror and compare the battery drain between the two versions (Stable vs Beta)?

Looking to find an adapter that will allow me to browse a jump/usb flash drive on my Kaiser. Have seen several 3 in 1's online, but none seemed to have a standard usb port and have also seen adapters that go from standard usb to mini but not the otherway.

Please let me know if what I am looking for just won't work (ie the Kaiser can't use an attached jump drive).

There is no way you can browse a flash drive with your kaiser (maybe using a redfly device) but the kaiser is not able to work as a usb host device.

I was afraid of that, but wasn't sure since it can use SD cards. Guess I need to do some reading to learn the difference between a USB drive and an SD card.

[General Questions and Answers] triangleBoi:
The phone I'll be talking about is Galaxy J7 Prime2 (SM-G611F). So, I had this for a long time; and when it came out, it was Android 7.1.1. Then it got a 8.0 update, after that, a 9.0 update. But 9.0 update is really bad for me, so I just wanted to downgrade it. The problem is, when I flash a 8.0 BL file, it gives the SW EV. CHECK FAIL(BOOTLOADER) DEVICE: 3 BINARY: 1 error. I looked up a little, and I got the information that the current bootloader version is greater than what's in the BL file. And appereantly, Samsung does not support the downgrading of the bootloader. So I'm asking this: Can I flash AP, CP and CSC images while the bootloader version is greater than what's in them.

[Amazfit] AladdinsDen:
what is a "normal watch" ? there are folk who suffer from Cardiac Arrhythmia and need to record there ECG every day so they can monitor their health and provide data to their physician. Watches with ECG are godsend to them as it gives them that extra security knowing and cardiac problems are detected before its too late (ie death)
[Amazfit] markitosd:
Considering this situation, in order to achieve an accurate record of ECG, your folk should get a better watch than this one. We're talking about serious health issues and not just recording ECG "for fun". There are better alternatives on the market for your friend's needs. If the Nexo watch is already bought, I would recommend selling it and buy something with ECG readings on point.
[Amazfit] AladdinsDen:
i suppose you must be a consultant cardiologist to make the assertion that its ecg monitoring is not good ? I have the chinese version and its accuracy is 2nd to none... my carialogist uses the data collected to monitor my heart.. and he attests to its accuracy... and considering the FDA is about to approve its ECG function.... i'll ignore your supposed wisdom
