[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] Trebor76:
My A5 (2017) is running on magisk rooted stock android 8.

I've been messing around trying to get better audio from this phone, and have found a method to... at very least make it look like I'm using LDAC.. at best actually use it.

I'm unsure if I truly am using LDAC, or if there is any difference to the audio quality at all.

(im the master of the placebo effect 😎)

I use SetEdit w/ Feature Pack to keep a few Global settings set to 1 (true) . After a certain event involving the headphone, or a random amount of time (idk) the "_supports_ldac" settings I've changed go back to 0 (false). SetEdit keeps my changes persistent.

Sidenote, this little tweak FEELS like it has an effect on the audio.

& I can do something similar with my A51 (non-rooted, One UI 4.1) & the UHQ upscaling/bit ajustment built into the settings that is usually grey-ed out.. and dedicated for wired devices?

also works with different audio devices.. like my Skull Candy Uproar, and cheap BlueHive earbuds (035-7309-4)

Now thats all fine and dandy.. but......

but I cannot set the "Bluetooth Audio Codec" in dev settings to LDAC, when clicked it returns back to SBC. my only supported codec :(

same goes for sample rate, bit rate and sort of the LDAC Playback Quality. My A51 behaves the same.

I can change the playback quality from Best Effort, and it sticks.

But if I click the option, the selector is back to Best Effort... AND MY SELECTION of Optimized for Audio Quality still sticks. weird.

If I launch the android shortcut "com.sec.android.app.soundalive.activity.UHQUpscalerActivity" the page below opens, and I can freely change the settings and they stick as long as SetEdit is doing its thing.

I can't figure out how to access this page without launching the activity...

To sum it all up, I have some nooby questions.

Am I actually getting LDAC & UHQ upscaling with unsupported devices?

Is there a way to test the truth of what I'm seeing and "hearing"?

Is this weirdly specific "hack" and my curiosity confusing enough? or am I insane?

I wanted to know if anyone had any good or bad experiences with clear cases like this one

http://www.amazon.com/AT-Fuze-Activ..._75?ie=UTF8&s=wireless&qid=1227055029&sr=1-75

I want to get a case that will protect the fuze from drops. I drop my previous phone the 8525 twice and because I'm in a city the first drop was on one of those metal grates and the phones edges got scratched up more than I would have liked and the second time was on a concrete side walk. Both times I was pulling out my phone from my case on my hip and lost grip. I was interested in getting a case that I can pull my phone from the top. That may help prevent me losing grip. But I still want to put something on the phone incase I loss grip again and drop the phone. And I was looking for something that will not put that much bulk or take away from the looks of the phone. If anyone has any suggestions or experence with cases or skins that I can put on the phone to try and protect it from a drop I would like to read about it
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] ManM:
I had the boxwave clear case for my 8525, and it saved my phone several times. There were a couple problems though. For starters, the gaps between the plastic and the phone get covered in dirt, and you have to remove the case to clean it out. The case snaps on to your phone will little plastic tabs. If one of those breaks, part of your case will be loose.

However, I will certainly give the case full marks for protecting my phone. It survived drops, throws, smashes, and just about everything else you can imagine would happen if a 1 year old got a hold of your phone. So, if you don't really care about the phone getting dirty and whatnot, the boxwave case provides some good protection while adding a minimal amount of bulk to the phone.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] brandirena86:
I had a case similar for my HTC Tilt and I loved it, it saved my phone several times too and it has a belt clip which I loved! Also if you get that case they have it on eBay for cheaper... I believe it was $9.99 or something like that, I was looking earlier today and saw it on there but I bought a Hot Pink Rubberized one instead. But I like the cases, of course it's your own personal preference though. Hope I'm not too late with the eBay info though lol. Here's my search link, there are a couple cases for it.

[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] Praygo:
Search for the body glove case. It is rubberized, not the best looking of cases, but might protect it the best. I bought mine on ebay.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] NotATreoFan:
I bought the official AT&T 2-piece case for $29.99 (-30% FAN discount).

It fits, but tabs that hold it on make the phone seem like it's going to get stuck in a half open position.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] rrider77:
I wanted to thank everyone for there suggestions.

NotATreoFan is this the case you bought at ATT

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=446555

Because thats one of the options I was thinking of or the crystal case. I'm going to The ATT store to check it out.

How do you like your case?

Thanks
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] NotATreoFan:
That's the case.

HTC Touch Pro Case Protection

For those of you who have a Touch Pro and have the Sprint included HTC brand case, you probably have the same gripe about it as I do. There is very little protection to the side of the phone as the OEM case has several gaps in it. Also using the case for a few weeks, the velcro begins to lose its hold and the case may not shut properly. I have customized my case to fix these problems and would encourage others to do the same. Here is what you will need:

-Small elastic material (available at any craft store or Wal-Mart!)

-3M double sided tape

-Velcro strips

-5 minute epoxy (Wal-Mart)

Directions: Cut a piece of elastic the same length as the open portion of the side of the case. Cut out small pieces of double sided tape and apply to the black cross sections of the case. Apply the elastic and cut to size. For the the velcro fix on the front of the phone, cut a strip of the velcro and fit to size on the front of the case. Mix the 5 minute epoxy and apply to the back of the velcro strip you just cut. Apply the velcro to the case and allow to dry (apply pressure to ensure a tight fit). Enjoy your case!

Hello. As the title says, if I install, for example, an new module like "universal doze" and I see that I have problems with some apps or I see that the phone is slower, just uninstalling should return the settings to how they were before?

[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Sepepe_GCL:
My RN10Pro is experiencing a rather serious issue. I was about to open a game (Fate Grand Order), it freeze then crashed. Then no sound was playing at all on any apps (youtube, music ,etc). It also cant record audio from mic. No audio from calls. Can someone help?

Other Symptoms:

- Dolby Atmos is stuck in Toggle ON. I cant turn it off. I always left it OFF before the problem. I havent turned it on before.

- Going into sound effects in settings result in crash and error.

- Poweramp music player reports "No Audio Device"

-ALL APPS dont have any audio.

- No audio comes out even if I plug in my Earphones with a mic.

- Plugging my phone to charger doesnt create the Charge sound that it usually do.

METHODS THAT I HAVE ALREADY TRIED.

- Factory Reset - I have tried 2 factory resets already. Both didnt work

- Restarted phone multiple times - Still no sound

- Tried Safe Mode - No luck

- Cleared cache from Boot Screen. No luck

Any help pls T_T

Which ROM? TWRP, rooted unrooted?
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Sepepe_GCL:
MIUI 13 Global 13.0.8, No TWRP, Unrooted.

Edit: Im going to bed, I will be replying tomorrow. For anyone who tries to help, thanks in advance. I hope you guys can help me with this T_T
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] runtime64:
As long as you are on seller's OS, try also to give them a call or write to them. This way you'll get both "official" assistance there and FOSS here.

If the official does not help, you may always try to unlock the bootloader and to install the same (but debloated) Miui OS or try a free one.

Hope you manage to resolve the issue. We all know how time and mind consuming are all these troubles. Good luck!
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Sepepe_GCL:
Generally speaking, which custom ROM is the most bug free or stable one? I have a feeling that this is a software/OS problem due to how the nature it occurred.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] runtime64:
There is no one and sole answer to your question. It depends on the hardware components, on how you use your phone and even on the sequence of installations.

For example, I unlocked bootloader on my Redmi and installed CrDroid which had a very good battery run time. A couple of months later I had to reinstall the OS because after OTA update I lost root and could not regain it via usual tricks. So, clean installed the same CrDroid. And now the battery consumption is visibly higher. Why? No answer. I have to search for new tricks.

So, even if you found an OS which fits your needs, you are not guaranteed to pass next years in a small country house contemplating roses.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] la98kraja:
Hello!

Having the exact same problems. Phone became defective on its own. Never rooted or flashed. All of a sudden Adobe Audio is stuck on and no audio, no recording or playing videos and no mic function. I can only write and browse with the phone. If anyone found a solution other than a motherboard swap let me know.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Mattfun:
Same here , every application that use sound , voice , it will freeze n not responding. Guess it cause by miui update ..ahh... Do u solve it, it been 72 hours now...this phone might fly into the wall soon
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Sepepe_GCL:
Nope bro, still havent solve it. Based on some research I have done, the root cause might be a faulty mainboard. :( . I just reverted to using my old Samsung A50 for the meantime.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] pavan nayak:
same is happening with me from yesterday
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] pavan nayak:
Did anyone found fix or visited service centre? Also how and when did your device having audio issues @Mattfun @Sepepe_GCL @la98kraja
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] KhabiyaAditya:
Same with me...

The front cam stopped working on 1st July,

Since last 4 days (29th September), the mic and speakers are not working.

In fact, the phone doesn't even boot normally, only safe mode works.

In safe mode too, cam, mic and speakers don't work.

I took a bug report and sent to Feedback team. No response since 2 days...

How effed up am I?
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] pavan nayak:
Did anyone try qfil rom ?
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] la98kraja:
I emailed xiaomi italy. i had bought the phone 1.5 years ago and this is obviously a factory defect. Since moving houses and everything i have lost the original box of the phone with the bill in it and i dont have proof of insurance even though xiaomi told me through emails that my imei shows that the phone is under warranty but they wont take it in without a bill from the shop i got it from. the shop now post covid has closed bcs of the general crisis Italy is in.

i believe it strongly to be a motherboard or speaker problem. a redmi note 10 pro now flies around 150-200 euros new and a motherboard costs 100 euros. i can fix it myself because i am technically able but i dont think it is worth it. i bought an iphone 11 pro max and im keeping this audioless phone that i cant do much with either until someone finds another fix for it or its battery swells and damages the frame hahahah. might work well as a tinder only phone to hide from your gfs too ahahahahha.

my phone just did the audio thing on its own. one day it was working fine then the other day:

Dolby atmos stuck on

no audio from anything

every video or app that uses audio freezes. only rear camera works but sometimes decides it doesnt want to and only for taking pictures.

reboots became instantly no joke 10 minutes long. like to the point i was worrying it was never going to boot. all this 2-3 weeks before i did my first comment on this thread.

i feel like this is a disservice. xiaomi should aknowledge this problem and maybe take back all the defective redmi note 10 pros and even if they ask me to pay extra for a redmi note 11 pro or 12 i will but take at face value what i paid for their phone already and offer me a solution. i was able to take care of it but what about people who this is their only phone and have no possibility of bying another one a snap of their fingers just because their main is broken. i always used xiaomi products. love their phones and everything and i understand this is a factory defect that might happen to 0.01% of all redmi note 10s but still own up to it as a company.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] egesenkaya:
I have the same problem and when I sent it to the service they said that the motherboard needs to be changed. It's really silly. A phone should not break where it stands!
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Mattfun:
Yeah ...so do i ... An update cause faulty mainboard ... And it our problem cause we updated it... Damnnn .. almost a month without sound now ... Fork
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Laptapper:
Did you've tried a clean flash with fw and another ROM? For example los 19
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] RAMBO29:
It could be the driver in update as well. Try another ROM like @Laptapper said
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Mattfun:
Since 26/9 , still not fixed yet.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Mattfun:
They said it might be causes by motherboard and they want to change it , it cost the price of the phone tho . Ah , all this happened by an update..no more xiaomi .. thank you all
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Funniest:
Same with mine too. Have you found any solution?

Please any solution... My Remi note 10 pro just behaved same what's the way out please.. this isnt funny
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Laptapper:
Did you've tried a clean flash with first flashing fw ?
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] vicck34:
Not really... Dont think it will work
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Laptapper:
But which other options?

Not working means trash, so you have to try something what didn't before....
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] abidbz99:
Funny you mention. i have had the exact same issue in a very similar timeline as well.

Front can stopped working first. The mic and speaker stopped working since yesterday.

Ran the update today, and only runs on safe mode.

Disappointed. Have been a redmi user for 8 years now.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] KhabiyaAditya:
Update on that situation,

I went to the official service centre, they said it was due to a bad update ( miui 13.0.5 ig ) and said they will repair for free, even tho it was out of warranty.

Took them 4 days and they replaced the MoBo, got it back on 23rd Oct.

No problems since then.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] vicck34:
So how do we send ours to them.. the agent i met is saying 75k....
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] vicck34:
How do we follow suit please
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Sha2312:
Did your phone ever boot normally again? if so which method did you use?

A colleague of mine faced a same issue with front cam not working after a update.

After that " system UI not working" started popped up and now it does random reboots.

The only solutions i have found so far on the net is the one from desoldering the Qualcom chipset and soldering it back.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] abidbz99:
Tbh I have been using it now in safe mode. That is the only option that seems to be working for me.

I am still exploring other options before factory reset (apparently does nothing) and flashing the stock firmware (which apparently has helped some). But like you said I have seen some youtube videos claiming that reballing the cpu works.

Nevertheless, I am trying to back up as much data as possible and try and buy another phone, obviously something other than Xiaomi.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] KhabiyaAditya:
Avoid sending it via some third party. If possible take it to the service centre yourself. Insist that the problem(s) arose after the update. Here in India, most people weren't charged for the repair, although I found an article where they said it would cost INR 12k.

Edit: Xiaomi saying they'd do it for free
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Hemant Ramani:
I have the same issue, Let me know if u got any solution, i will update here , if i can find something helpful. Thanks.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Hemant Ramani:
I face the same issue. since couple of days. Mic and Sound not working any how.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Salahmello:
Did you fix it ???
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Sepepe_GCL:
I never thought that this thread will gain a little bit of traction. Seems like the issue is more widespread than I thought. For those who were curious about my situation. I'll quote my reply to a DM

My main guess is that its a BGA/ soldering ball defect similar to the ones seen in the X3 NFC and X3 Pro phones. Thus the processor slowly lost proper contact with the mainboard, resulting in loss of function like sound, performance, camera, etc. The update was probably unrelated with the phone failing and just is most likely a mere coincidence. Xiaomi needs to improve their quality inspection. For now, I'm eyeing the Pixel 8 as my next phone while trying to hold on to my old Samsung A50 and using my Narzo 50 as my daily driver.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] kykrishan:
Do you have any bill/receipt/repair invoice that they give you, so that we can inform them. What did you tell them ,how they agree to repair it for free.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] khanrooman:
Same Problem. In my Redmi note 10 pro max

No sound at all - Mic doesnt work. After update in stable MIUI 14 OTA 🥲​

Please help guy's ❣️
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] orratyas:
At this point I think they are just trying to milk it. A recall would be an apt response. Just got hit with the same issue. And the service centre have very specific response. "If the front camera and audio have stopped working then it is covered under extended warranty" clearly a lot of the people are facing this issue after using it for some 1.5 years. They know that this can cause issues with front camera and audio and know that this is an issue with update and motherboard but the response it that it has to comply to certain conditions to be fixed.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Hemant Ramani:
I researched a bit on the issue and found one more option but not sure if it will work. Here is the link to the USB adaptor that directly connect headphones to the CPU, Let me know if anyone had tried this out . https://www.amazon.in/Shop-Reals-Xiaomi-Redmi-Note/dp/B0BZYR4QJH
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] orratyas:
Most people get success only if the camera has issues. My audio is bricked and somehow camera is still working. Service center says it's not covered. But they accept motherboard issue

I have kind of the same problem, but kinda more severe since even the wifi is not working as well as all of the phone's sensors, has anyone found any solution yet? the most I found was doing a cpu reball but local repair shops are demanding a very high price for it ( almost same as price for swapping in another motherboard), did anyone find any other solution?
