[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Kleerkastje:
I got a question. On my old Gear S3 when i enabled auto workout detection and started running, after 10 minutes my watch said "Keep it up!" And i could track how long i was running and stuff. Is there a way to have this on my Watch 4? Cause it does auto track my workouts but i cannot track em trough my watch and it does not pop up after running for 30minuted and stuff while i'm exercising. Thanks for the help!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Kleerkastje:
Nobody?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] gumka1:
I was using this option long time ago. If I remember well you can switch on Auto detect Activities in Settings - Samsung Health . Watch detects only walking and running, after ~10 minutes. Tracking screen should pop up or there will be small Activiti icon at screen bottom. Just touch it to see full tracking.

Hi, I have a Scishion V88 plus 4k box. Current firmware is Android 6.0. I have found a 7.1 firmware but it is in multiple *.img format such as boot.bin kernel.img misc.img recovery.img

I'm tried factory tool batch tool etc. but they are looking for single img file.

How can I burn this firmware. SD card ?
[Sony Xperia 5 II Guides, News, & Discussion] legzd2010:
This is a flashable stock kernel (boot.img) for Xperia 5 II XQ-AS52 patched with magisk to enable root features

I pulled this kernel from XQ-AS52_Customized UK_58.2.A.10.84 and patched with Magisk Manager

I used XperiFirm to download the firmware, then i used Unsin to convert the kernel

I have also included the original kernel as a boot image which can be flashed to recover from bootloop issues with modules

Please note, due to the limitations of the stock kernel, many modules and features may not work. Please use at your own risk.

Flashing the boot.img will not wipe userdata

How to Flash

Make sure the phone is switched off then hold VOL UP and insert USB cable via your computer [BLUE LED]

Then issue the comand for patched kernel;

fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img

To flash the original;

Fastboot flash boot boot.img

reboot phone;

Hello all I am planning to put a custom rom in my poco X3 pro.can you suggest some good roms or should I wait for MIUI 13 update with Android 12 ..also when it is released?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] aurocha:
There's already a MIUI 13 on top of Android 12, which I used, from xiaomi.eu. But I would recommend ArrowOS12.1. Couldn't be happier. Battery back up as a must.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] sherw_sam:
How much is the battery life on arrow os ? And how much time is it good compared to MIUI 13?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] aurocha:
Significantly better, for my usage pattern. Miui drains battery much faster. And Xiaomi.eu's is debloated and is easier on the battery.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] sherw_sam:
Thanks for the reply mate .I will be using my phone mostly ..I need juice to last up to a day ..will it hold (arrow) and how is stability of the camera ?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] few__:
If you are dissatisfied with the battery life in ArrowOS, try to install No Gravity Kernel

The GPU voltage is reduced by default and there is a dedicated app for it that is easy to use
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] interferometry4:
which one is better? arrow OS 12.1 or 13?
[Android Head-Units] Sound777:
Hello everyone, I’m and audio engineer and not a developer, but I thought you guys might be able to help me with something.

This is posted in Q&A but now I'm realizing I should have posted here. I've been searching the forum and can't find an answer, so I figured I'd ask you guys.

I purchased a android unit for my car (2016 Range Rover), it uses the cars factory audio system, it can mirror the stock screen to the new android screen (for access to settings and cameras), and it feeds its audio output to the Aux input of the car or Bluetooth from the android to the cars factory Bluetooth.

Everything functions beautifully, however the sound quality is terrible. There is a “DSP” screen in their GUI, when adjusting any of the parameters I can tell the DSP / EQ is possibly the cause of the issue. It sounds like its filtering off everything below 50-60hz and the audio is compressed. Whenever adjusting EQ in the Android GUI that compression sound gets worse, leading me to suspect it might be the cause of the issue.

I downloaded an app that shows hidden apps and found “MagicEQ” installed, I disabled it but the audio continues to sound the same.

I’m wanting to disable any processing of the audio and simply send an unmodified audio signal out of the android via it’s analog output and/or it’s Bluetooth connection.

My questions are:

-Is there anywhere else I can look to see if there are any other hidden EQ settings?

-any tips on how to find any other apps or processes that could be tampering with the audio signal?

-are there any apps that could be installed that would override any audio processing that’s currently happening?
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
I think you already checked power and ground of the speaker?

I fear you just bought one of those cheap units. The picture you show is just some sort of EQ, that has nothing to do with a DSP and the built in sound chip is just not able to provide signals below 60hz.

Just show us the specs of this unit, incl MCU and used firmware. Otherwise no one is able to dive in deeper.
[Android Head-Units] Sound777:
The speaker and amplification is all being done from the stock car system, this android unit just sends out a line level signal into the Auxilary port of the car or Bluetooth to the car. It’s basically an android tablet except that it also mirrors the factory car screen.

This is all I could find for specs. Does this help at all?

Unfortunately it wasn’t cheap either at $1100 USD, I’m aware that doesn’t mean it’s not made cheap though.

As someone who manipulates audio for a living, I really do think it’s that EQ that might be causing the issues.

Each process in audio tends to have a unique characteristic to the sound, and when I adjust any of those parameters I hear those same artifacts exaggerated.

I don’t know much about android systems though, so I’m wondering if there a way to “look under the hood” and see if it’s possible to take that EQ out of the processing path of the audio signal.
[Android Head-Units] blackhawk:
First off the Android should be coupled to the car by toshlink ie the C port in the digital realm unless it's a amp only with no preamp processing.

Bluetooth will degrade the audio if it's SBC or LDAC.

Files should .wav, HDCD or higher in resolution.
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
At least your complete system is no common one.

First of all you would need to get it rooted, to have a chance to get deeper into the system.

As I never have seen this system combination with this MCU and You even don´t find anything about it in here, there is a very low chance that you get help with rooting... sorry to say.
[Android Head-Units] Sound777:
For this particular vehicle (2016 Range Rover sport) the only systems I’ve been able to find feed audio via Aux or Bluetooth into the OEM system.
[Android Head-Units] Sound777:
Yeah, I’m not surprised unfortunately. Thank you for looking into that more though!
[Android Head-Units] blackhawk:
Is your grounding correct? All devices, head and amp should be grounded to a common point with heavy gauge wire. No daisy stringing.

V+ should be heavy gauge coming off the battery if possible. Running a dedicated circuit for ground and V+ off the battery as a twisted pair is a good option.
[Android Head-Units] Sound777:
Ok so I have confirmed it's some hidden EQ or processing that's happening in the unit and not a problem with the chipset.

II installed an app called poweramp EQ that when enabled I bypasses the hidden EQ / audio processing and sounds instantly like it should (poweamp EQ is flat). The problem is it takes a while to boot, and you have to play audio from only a few specific apps, then the EQ is bypass across all apps. So I need to figure out how to find and remove that hidden EQ.

The Chinese supplier sent me all of the installers they use, is that something that could be opened and modified?

here is a link to those installers

Range Rover Android Installers
[Android Head-Units] blackhawk:
I would just use Poweramp as the player especially in a car. It's graphic equalizer is excellent. Very low distortion. That all I use to play my 240gb collection of .wav albums on my N10+. Zero issues or complaints... simply the best for music.
[Android Head-Units] Sound777:
I don't want to just play files though, I want to use the unit with CarPlay, Tidal, Dropbox, etc.

It's frustrating because this system would do everything I need it to do if I could just remove that damn EQ they have hidden in there.
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
You just got the latest greatest MCU and this zip file is the newest firmware.

There is nothing you can modify at least not if you are no developer and are able to create a new firmware afterwards.

Use the manual the supplier sent and get your unit updated. May be that changes something, who knows... Be aware, that your unit might be reset during update.
[Android Head-Units] Sound777:
Yeah that makes sense, The supplier of course didn't not supply a manual to update, just sent those files.

As far as modifying, is that something an outside developer could do? If so, I wouldn't mind hiring someone to do it.

As a profesional Audio engineer, I really want to utilize the amazing sound system in the Range Rover, something we can listen to what we're working on during lunch breaks or show colleagues what we've been working on in the studio when out on the town.

Unfortunately, this was the best system I could find for my specific vehicle.
[Android Head-Units] blackhawk:
A very large personal music library of high res albums/songs is the way to go. Poweramp plays whole albums or create extensive playlists that can be completely backed up along with settings. Coming from the days of 8tracks and cassettes... you have no clue how lucky you are, at least in this regard.
[Android Head-Units] Sound777:
As a professional mastering engineer, I'm aware of the benefits of hires files, but unfortunately that's not what I'm looking for with this system.
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
The MCU.zip needs to get unpacked and the content of this zip needs to get stored on a fresh formatted SD card (FAT32) If you have, use the smallest SD card you have. I prefer to use a 8GB SD card which I only use for updates.

Put it into the unit and the system should recognize the new MCU file and asks for set up.

This is the first step. If you get new MCU and firmware, always install the MCU first.

After reboot is done, you should format the SD card again (just for being safe) on you laptop/pc, what ever which is able to format FAT32 cards.

Most probably the firmware file needs to get renamed as update.zip.

Don´t unpack that zip file, just rename it and copy it onto this fresh formatted SD card.

Stick it into the unit and you may or may not get a notification that an update has been found. Choose install.

Note: All personal apps, files and folders are deleted most probably. Before you do anything, make sure you have all data stored externally. All partitions of the unit are updated as far as I could see in the firmware.

Have fun and report back if that was successful. If not, the naming of the firmware seems to be different. You need to ask the seller in this case.
[Android Head-Units] Sound777:
Thank you for the detailed instructions! The supplier said they're going to ask the developer to do an update, I might wait on that and only go though this once since they said the firmware / MCU they sent is the same as what's already on it.
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
In this case... Wait for any update.

BTW: It´s always tricky to get an OEM sound system working flawlessly with any aftermarket radio. You need to know that the OEM radio and the sound system are built to work perfect together.

I don´t think that you would be able to remove the integrated EQ.

BTW: To enable any external DEV to build a new firmware means, that he needs also exactly the same headunit for testing any changes or adaptations. It´s unfortunately not done with providing the firmware.

FThe firmware of the unit is just some sort of "messenger" for the MCU, so the radio itself. The Android is more or less just set on to provide the UI, and the handling of the main board itself. The EQ is not on Android, it´s on the mainboard itself.

The combination you are running is really error prone because of the mix.

Don´t expect too much I fear.
[Android Head-Units] lantoine:
Hello, did the supplier ever send you an updated firmware and MCU that addresses the issue? I have the same head unit as you and I would really like to disable/get rid of the built-in SW EQ so that the full dynamic range of the sound goes out to the Meridian Amp. If you've found a way of disabling/removing the SW EQ without having to do a firmware update, please do share as well.

What is the app that shows you hidden apps?
[Android Head-Units] McFred1974:
@Sound777, even when ur "Android Head Unit" is not a common one, but well custom made for the rover, I am not really sure why u cannot phisically connect ALL the audio components (the audio System) of ur Range Rover that was originally connected to the head unit u replaced. Why are u forced to either connect thru BT or thru AUX (and when u mentioned AUX I came to realize perhaps u haven't replaced the original car stereo and u have now two units)...

I love pure sound... so I haven't touched my two new cars audio systems (Volvo XC60 comes with 16 Bower and WIlkins amplifier, speakers and other components and MINI Countryman comes with a not the best version of Harman/Kardon)... now, my Jeep didnt even have CarPlay and I jumped to switch the horrible infotainment unit for a "generic" Android unit. There's this component called CANBUS which makes it not so generic, and that makes it custom to the brand and made of ur vehicle... like enabling the sensors to show messages and alerts to the Android HU, the controls of the steering wheel work all perfectly and so - in my case - without cable patching I was also able to plug the original whole audio system to the android tablet... since the tablet was "homologated" for my Jeep made and model... so the source (the tablet) goes directly to the amplifier of my Jeep, etc, etc.. and I didnt even move any setup on the amplifier but I had to adjust the damn DSP which has awful pre setup modes and a zillion bands to handle... At least the connection is direct without any BT, Wifi or AUX connector in between

So, bottoline is, why is it that u can not connect the Android tablet physically with ur car audio system? Doesn't the tablet bring a jack to plug it in compatible with all the audio wire harness of ur Range Rover?
[Android Head-Units] ArmitQ5:
Hey, the android sound output goes in to company audio via aux in. On the company harness, there is a aux in socket, extract it out from the main socket and plug it in to the main unit. You would have understood that, the T harness is bringing in aux input in to the main unit. I hope you got what I am saying. At the end, the android aux output goes no where. The company aux in goes back in the main unit and you should have your original sound back and the android screen should work as a display only. Write back if you got this right.

Hello, I am trying to use my old Google Pixel 2 XL as a webcam. I want to take advantage of the very good (especially compared to typical webcam) camera that the phone has. I have seen a few YT videos and want to know if there's anything specific to this phone/pixels in general to make the most out of it.

[Redmi Note 9 Pro (International Model) General and] AkilisUi:
Hi there,

I recently bricked my Redmi Note 9 Pro trying to reflash the original rom under TWRP. It was a Global version (joyeuse) originally.

It simply is stuck on a bootloop (Redmi logo showing up for 1sec then rebooting) so can't access fastboot or recovery mode.

After many hours of research, I kinda came to the conclusion that there is no way of flashing the rom in EDL mode without an authorized MI account for MI Flash Tool.

I'm still asking though : is there any trick to bypass it or flash the original rom without using an authorized account on a Qualcomm-based device ?

Cheers !
[Redmi Note 9 Pro (International Model) General and] gfchhhh:
There's no trick and it cannot be unbrick as of now even mi service center can't flash fw through edl. Your only option are: 1.)Mi Service Center (they'll replace the board it'll cost you $120 USD like you bought a second hand of the same unit). 2.) Sell the parts to make profit and buy a new phone. 3.) Set aside and wait for available unbrick solution. You cannot avail services from indian and russian guys almost all their services are scam. That's all you can do and I can share.
[Redmi Note 9 Pro (International Model) General and] JakePeralta99:
Facing s similar issue. Looking forward to a solution..

I'm able to access both recovery and fastboot. Only issue is that i accidentally locked the bootloader while tinkering with it on mi flash unlock.

Apparently accessing EDL mode is the only way to get past this (based on hours of extensive google research, lol).
[Redmi Note 9 Pro (International Model) General and] gfchhhh:
As of now I couldn't find any solution.

In my theory it can be unbrick in two methods:

1st method is bypassing authentication (server hack or modified mi flashtool).

2nd method is modified firehose programmer file.

We can use other flashtool programs like (Xiaomi Fire Tool, Chimera, and other paid apps to flash) but we need a modified firehose for that.

If someone else has the solution please help us unbrick our phones. May be we can donate instead of buying from someone else we don't even trust and letting them access our computer that's too risky.

Moreover, I asked xiaomi support, In our case they won't help us for them our bricked phones are trash. We are helpless.

In case someone has time to help patch these files for us. I got these files from latest firmware: (Joyeuse Global). I will donate my money instead of availing service.

[Redmi Note 9 Pro (International Model) General and] gfchhhh:
Hello, I have my redmi note 9 pro (joyeuse) working again. After days of deep searching in the web for fix I almost got out of my mind.

If you have no other choice you can pay someone for authorized flash just make sure your phone can enter into edl mode stably. I was very skeptical and have trust issues but my only choice is: give it a try.
[Redmi Note 9 Pro (International Model) General and] Mumi32:
Hi, have you tried holding lower volume button and power button at the same time, that will make the phone go to fastboot mode. After that download XiaomiAdbFastbootTools and open it. It should automatically point you to Fastboot tab. In Fastboot tab under Image: 1. select ROM folder( oh forgot to mention to download FASTBOOT image for your phone's model before this) and for method put clean install and then just click on flash ROM and done.

Good luck from someone who has bricked a phone like you for at least 20 times lmao
[Redmi Note 9 Pro (International Model) General and] AkilisUi:
Hey,

My phone is hard bricked, meaning that I don't have access to fastboot or recovery anymore. My only option was getting rid of the back cover, unplug the battery and short-circuit the pins with a pair of tweezers to access edl mode (which I did), then install the original rom with an authorized account (don't have + cannot find) or bypass the authorization or mayber with a modified firehose (I tried to find one, but didn't succeed as mentionned by gfchhhh earlier).

So I my brother gave me a spare phone that will clompetely do (redmi note 10 pro actually) !

Thanks for your time tho !
[Redmi Note 9 Pro (International Model) General and] Limoster:
This happened to me in 2020 when I bought the phone after the release and I tried to install the Curtana ROM on a Joyeuse device, so I bricked the phone by mistake! :D

Thankfully, I found some shady Telegram group with people that offered EDL service from India (I think...) with official MI Flash tool from authorized service provider (supposedly they were the owners of the account). At first, I was skeptical and I tried different ways to service the phone, but couldn't find any so I delved into the shady realm of a remote service provider. 😓

From my experience, the dude in question that offered the service seemed very rude because he probably didn't speak English very well. I paid him 30€ through PayPal beforehand, which I know it was a risky move. 😰 We agreed on a date to fix the phone remotely, but he wasn't punctual and I had to wait a couple of days for him to respond. 😮‍💨

He connected via TeamViewer, he asked to download the MI Flash Tool (I don't remember the name fully), and asked me to put the phone in EDL with a paperclip or tweezers. Then I remember him logging in his Mi service account, sending a repair request (i think), and after a couple of minutes, he copied and pasted what looked to be a very long 2FA single use code (two factor authentication) to begin the flashing.

The process took about 30~60 min or so, of which I didn't remove my eyes from the computer at any moment to check if he was going to do pesky things through the remote access. After the long wait, the phone booted and I got my phone working. 😁

I have never again tried to root the phone until today, because I have a severe problem with the audio interface and I need to modify some system files.

Wish me luck!
[OnePlus 9 Pro] User NiNaNo:
I bought an OP9Pro Tmobile variant this week, and I want to flash another custom ROM than OOS, but I realized that I need to unlock the sim to unlock the bootloader. Is there eligibility or a requirement to unlock the network sim?

If it's too long I'm planning to return it.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] SaintZ93:
1. Pay off device if it isn't already or convince someone on TMO chat to perm sim unlock you

2. Get your unlock code from bootloader and send into oneplus and wait about 7 to 14 days to get the unlock.bin file

3. Unlock device once you get the bin file

4. Flash a custom rom

Edit: this will always be like that when buying a device from TMO

Yes, I bought the device fully paid from the official OnePlus US store.

Have you tried going into bootloader and unlocking. I could be wrong but since you bought it from the OnePlus store you shouldn't have to go through the unlock.bin process
