[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] Shan8nu:
Hi everyone,

I got mi pad 5 in india few says back. And I'm facing below issue whenever I'm watching dark scene on Netflix or YouTube, even though my tablet brightness is max still that scene is very much dark that barely can see faces of characters. I'm not a tech guy but i know I've spent 23k on this for watching movies or tv shows and because of this issue I'm really frustrated.

Can anyone please help to how to resolve? or is this pad fault? Is it a software bug or hardware bug? or xiomi will fix this in upcoming updates?

Please help me here.

Screen comparing of same scene from lenovo tablet and mi pad 5(in white case with dark screen)

[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] Alecs91br:
Change the color scheme to standard, it helps a little with the contrast, another fix I didn't find, very frustrating as well with the hdr and dolby vision support you see very bad dark scenes
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] Shan8nu:
Yes sir, I've tried this but still not as expected.

Do you know is this a software bug or hardware? Means is it better to wait for xiomi to fix or to replace tab with other?
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] Alecs91br:
I don't think it will be fix, the tablet it's already on the market for almost a year and its not fixed, from what I saw if you have a download movie and you watch it with km player or mx player and choose the colours scheme to standard it's ok'ish but in Netflix app is terrible in dark scenes
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] vandal4e:
you get what you pay for folks, it ain't no Ipad / Samsung Tab quality hence the low price tag
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] Alecs91br:
If you use a player which you can control the brightness and the contrast you will have better results, so that means the tablet is capable of better results
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] skater96:
I wish HDR - Dolby could be deactivated. But it's impossible, even with root.
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] droid_junkie:
Do you have auto brightness turned on or off? Is this HDR content on Netflix?
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] Shan8nu:
My auto brightness is off and yer sir it's HDR content on Netflix.

I hope there should be fix for this in upcoming updates :(
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] skater96:
We must push feedback
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] Wasim_Bu:
Yes the brightness is a little low so I have to watch Netflix in a dark room!
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] AssumedDiz:
SDR content is fine for me, so definetly HDR/Dolby Vision is the reason

you can try downgrading your netflix plan to Standard which removes HDR/Dolby Vision support

but of course this may not be practical for you

another solution is to use Kodi + Netflix plugin, it has the ability to disable HDR/Dolby Vision even if you are on a premium plan

It's a shame because the screen is actually really good, I don't think its a hardware problem

But I also doubt it will be changed/fixed, maybe if we throw enough report at them
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] afrin101:
So the fix for this would be to go to special features and then sidebar inside which you have a video toolkit

Enable it for Netflix

And then whilst playing Netflix videos open the sidebar and enable the vision booster option in the sidebar if it shows
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] AssumedDiz:
this issue has been reported to the official xiaomi forums

feel free to write a reply there that you have the same issue, so it gets more attention from xiaomi

also you can report it on your device from settings -> feedback and provide the Report Id to the feedback team at the forum

It from a post in galaxy s2 forum to active hd in unsupported l1 device.
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] TheMrN1ko1:
The Display are to dark for HDR Content. 500 nits are not enough
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] xchamelionz:
I tried this. Enabled video toolkit for Netflix and selected "Outdoor" as style. The dark scenes became immediately much brighter
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] afrin101:
But sadly we don't have a fix for custom roms

If anyone has any inputs on this then pls share
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] vuoshinotizy:
I use this on every video and mutlimedia app. The image is brightness and visible. I use in combination with tasker. I made a fuction that increase the brightness on the video and multimedia app and decrease it when i exit. Anywyay i think anyone must to active the outdoor mode. Is like the video enhancher form samsung top device.
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] xchamelionz:
Can you use Tasker to activate outdoor style as well?
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] vuoshinotizy:
You can choose the app from the video toolbox settings.

Hello. Songs from YouTube or Amazon, etc, won't play in Stereo anymore. It just plays in mono.

I've put in a new sim card, as well as every fix it my cell company ( US Cellular ) suggested. Tried different earbuds, Bluetooth and wired, no go.

It used to work perfectly.

Can anyone help me with this?

Thank you,

Dirt Nelson
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
When did this begin? Any new apps or updates?

Check all sound settings.

Check accessibility settings.

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

Network reset, although this doesn't address wired buds.

Try a different source ie play a stereo vid or song downloaded on phone. Stereo?

Is it limited to only specific a app(s) or everything?

Less likely by order:

It's possible a hidden user settings was altered by a buggy 3rd party app. Unless you can correct it using that same app a factory reset maybe needed. Possible firmware corruption or hardware.

Any other problems or strange behaviors? Malware is always suspect if no reason can be found. Go full nuke and factory reset, reload.

Test for functionality right after the reset!

Be careful what you install. It's always better to find the cause rather than factory reset as if the issue reoccurs... you get it.

Unless there's a strong suspicion of malware a factory reset is always the last option.

Play with it... and do some different Google searches for the same issue for that model or related models.
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] Dirt Nelson:
Thanks Blackhawk for all the info! I appreciate all the input.

I figured out what the problem was. An audio setting was turned on probably as you said by some dumbass third party big.

Thank you,

Dirt
[Moto G7 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Yay! You're welcome.

I track down all my problems by mostly "playing" with it, using the tools available to see what's running etc, and Google searches for similar problems. Many issues span multiple devices and OS versions.

Sometimes it can be difficult but as long as it's not malware or a boot loop you can take your time.

The only factory resets I had to do where almost 2 years ago, 2 back to back boot loops caused by a buggy 3rd party launcher🤣 My bad for installing it. Poorly coded 3rd party apps can cause a lot of trouble. Playstore doesn't save you from that.

The Piel Frama cases are excellent.

Looking at the link you mention, Piel Frama do several other cases for the HTC Touch HD including the 'Crocodile' leather case.

[Touch HD Accessories] rinobed:

be careful it is about the same sizeour HD is slightly bigger and won't fit in a Iphone case!!
[Touch HD Accessories] dainys:
Yes, I have an iPhone cover and my Touch HD does not fit to it because of iPhone has rounded borders. Be carefull.
[Touch HD Accessories] LaPank:
Different cases for pocket and jacket

The best solution I found for my Tilt (I have yet to order a HD) was to permanently put it into a Seidio rubberized case. I read reviews where other users mentioned that the protection is very good and I can confirm this. I accidently dropped the Tilt when riding a bike and nothing happened to it. There was only a barely visible scratch on the external case, the Tilt was healthy as ever. So I guess I'll be another one as soon as it's available from Seidio (I hope they plan to release one)

For attaching it to my belt and put it into the pockets of my jacket I use the Crumpler John Thursday 70 pocket. It absorbs pushes really well, it has a velcro flap and protects a little against humidity. It might be a little to big for the Touch HD, so I wonder if someone saw a case with similar specs for a rather slim device like the Touch HD?
[Touch HD Accessories] gervasius:
well, great...

didn't receive my HD yet, so not sense to order case before...

but, tell me how is it when you receive...

thank you very much

[Touch HD Accessories] david-v:
I have ordered this one. It is only $28 and at the current Euro / dollar rate that is very cheap :). Besides, free shipping!!!. I like this case than the one mentioned in the first post more since it looks better with the white stitch.
[Touch HD Accessories] copualt3:
i ordered this on ebay for 12$ shipped.
[Touch HD Accessories] AndyCr15:
Oooh, that certainly looks a nice case. Do you have a link?

I would be a little worried about the swivel clip perhaps?

I just ordered one of these -

[Touch HD Accessories] marcel808:
To answer gervasius's original question, the ebay case (D1 EASECASE Custom-Made Leather case for HTC Touch HD).

I have one.

Plus points: its very well made. Looks nice. Protects the phone very well.

Minus points: its not designed for the HD. So if you have headphones in, it won't fit the case. Its a pig to get out of the case; you have to slide it out and hope you catch it! There is no hole to allow you to push the phone out of the case.

I ordered and received the Krusell Hector pouch for my brand spanking new HD. Got both today. The Hector in large is Iphone 3G-sized officially but it fits the Touch HD like a glove, and is nice and slim and high quality both in materials and design.

I'm a big fan of Krusell cases, have bought a number of them.

Any Iphone case should fit the Touch HD unless it's made to fit the iPhone very exactly, as in following its more rounded contours etc. So an iPhone pouch-style case should usually be fine, and other more custom cases probably not so much.
[Touch HD Accessories] esackbauer:
I got mine today. Really good quality. I asked the guy before i bought it if I can use ExtUSB or headphones and he said no. I bought in anyway because I wanted my precious phone properly protected.

It takes a little excercise to get it out the pouch, I think it will get easier the more you have wear and tear.
[Touch HD Accessories] thepando:
Custom leather case - very impressed by quality

I also bought one of these cases, just arrived yesterday. I am very impressed by the quality, it is incredibly well made. It's quite sturdy and offers good protection for my HD. I had it custom made with hidden magnetic fasteners and no belt clip, Nappa cowhide black A outer and Microfiber suede black inner, and custom stamped with a name (which was centred rather than left or right aligned on the flap which was good). It came very well packaged in a soft bag inside a box inside the outer packaging!

It's a snug fit for the HD which gives a feeling of confidence that the phone isn't going to fall out, but does mean it's slightly hard to get out. I'm expecting this to ease with use.

You can't have anything plugged in (headphones, usb, etc) whist the phone is in the case which could be limting, but this is fine for what I wanted: i.e. protection in pockets, bags, etc.
[Touch HD Accessories] twilsens:
I bought the A2 case from Easecase on Ebay. Will arrive this week I hope. On ebay itself I saw a lot of very positive feedback remarks for the cases of this shop.

I am very excited to receive the case ;)

The material is very high class and the leather is real. The HTC fit's perfect.

Is this pouch in terms of holding the phone, like the official ones from Diamond and Touch Pro??

[Touch HD Accessories] SaP1:
but...does the magnet ruin the capacitive display in the long time? the sensibility
[Touch HD Accessories] Liquizen:
Well, considering the whole of one side of the unit has a magnet in it, to hold and retract the stylus, I wouldnt have thought the case magnet would do anything..
[Touch HD Accessories] Liquizen:
I have just ordered the C7 easecase.

And I emailed the guy before to ask if he could do the stitching in a different colour. He said yes, so I am having the black leather exterior, microfibre black interior, all finished with a grey stitching..

Cant wait.
[Touch HD Accessories] twilsens:
Sounds nice!

About the magnet I don't know, my case doesn't has a magnet at all.

I have a problem with my Stratos2 last months. The gps fix is very slow and when it finally locks it is very inaccurate. I have made factory reset and have tried many of the firmware versions with the same results. The watch is like new, never dropped it and never used it in water.

I think something goes wrong with the AGPS.

This is a today logcat when the watch waiting for GPS:

I/HmSport ( 1043): com.huami.watch.newsport.sportcenter.utils.AGPSManager -- agps info: 2022-05-11T00:00:00Z,2

Hey

i don't know if someone of you might be able to help me (i hope someone know), but 99% of the time when I am using CarPlay it works perfectly except for one thing : when Siri talk / read a message or a notification the audio quality of Siri voice is really bad (and it's the same when i call someone, the voice from the one that i talk to is really bad in term of audio quality.

I don’t know why, especially that the music in the background is still played with a good audio quality :/

Maybe someone has a software update for my Junsun V1 Pro 8+128gb using a Mediatek MT6768 SoC ?

(I've tried with IOS 15, 15.2 and 15.4 and it does the same problem)

Thanks in advance :/

I have the same unit as yours. What car is yours installed in? Mine plays excellent audio with music but no sound at all when in phone calls.

And yes, I've turned the volume up all the way.

So I was trying to roll bcak my device and it got bricked to the point wher it's only detected by Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 and it wont boot into fastboot/recovery/sys/bootloader.

I understand how I can flash the firmware with QFIL but QPST won't recognize my device as a phone even when the port was defined by me and by proxy I cannot get my hands on the .mbn or .elf file needed.

So I'm looking for help either getting the files themselves or a way to make QPST recognize my device so I can grab them myself.

Hello

I have been trying different ROMs with Android 12. (CrDroid, PE, Pixel Plus, Evolution X, etc.) And with all of them I find a lag in the slide to home. It sticks or takes me into multitasking that resembles swiping between apps.

I currently use "Pixel Experience" and have the same problem. So I use the navigation buttons which do not present such a problem.

I currently use a POCO F3. I wanted to ask you. Has the problem occurred to you? Is there a magisk mod to fix this?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] formeriphoneuser:
Hisense just released a new device called the A9. Since this phone has Snapdragon 662 I was wondering how easy it would be to root this device. I know there is an EDL for this CPU. The Hisense A5 series was also rootable. Not sure what method was used.

The Onyx Boox Note Air 2 (a 10.3" tablet), which I have, also runs on the same Snapdragon 662 and can be rooted via Magisk. I used the EDL to dump the boot.img on the Note Air 2 to root it via Magisk.

Disclaimer: I'm not a developer or super technical guy, but have rooted a few devices by following guides.

Does anyone know how easy or fast a root would be available? I'm assuming they didn't lock the bootloader on this device as most Chinese devices.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RunnyYolk:
I recently good a Hisense A9, and I've been trying to extract the boot.img and / or recovery.img from it (since I can't find either of those online yet). So far I've been trying to get boot.img from EDL mode using this EDL tool. I can boot into EDL mode fine, but when I try to run an EDL command there are lots of errors. It's possible I'm using the wrong Firehose file, but I think it's right. (I'll post a link to the logs below). I've been following this guide mainly. Is anyone else working on this?

*Edit* the firehose file I'm using is 0014d0e100000000_d40eee56f3194665_FHPRG.bin.

Anyway, OP - hopefully I, or someone, can get the boot image or recovery image soon, then we should be able to patch it with Magisk fairly easily and install Google Services etc.

A word of warning to anyone who wants to try working on this - every time I restart after being in EDL mode, the phone goes into a boot loop of sorts. I enter the 6-digit pin at boot-up, and the phone says something in Chinese (which Google translates as something like "optimising the system, please wait", from memory), and then keeps showing the desktop screen for a second, then looping back to the pin code input, then showing the message, and then repeat. If you hold down volume down, it'll go into safe mode, but then the same thing happens when you restart. I've always managed to get out of it, but I'm not 100% sure how! Something like holding the power key down for about 10 seconds while it's looping... The phone vibrates, but doesn't turn off, and then the loop stops and you can enter your 6-digit pin again and it's back to normal. If that doesn't work, then try turning the phone off, then back on again, but holding the power key down so it keeps restarting without fully booting. Last time I made it restart ~5 times, and then it was back to normal. Maybe it cleared some kind of system cache...?

These are the errors I get from the EDL tool when I try to extract the boot image.
