[Redmi Note 9T] Rubz_Mod:
Hello,

About a week ago I updated to MIUI 13 (13.0.2.0.SJEMIXM). My phone (Redmi Note 9T) was rooted and I had a custom recovery (Orange Fox) installed. I flashed the stock recovery and was then able to update. I left the stock recovery on the phone to make it easier to update down the line but did root my phone again.

This morning I was informed that there is a new update (13.0.3.0.SJEMIXM) so I download and installed it. All went well and the phone booted successfully.

I then wanted to have my phone rooted again (magisk) so I just took the boot.img from the previous version (13.0.2.0.SJEMIXM) to be patched since I did not have the factory Rom for the new version (13.0.3.0.SJEMIXM) to retrieve the boot.img file.

I then flashed the patched boot.img via fastboot (fastboot flash boot magisk_pached.img) and my phone started to bootloop.

I also tried flashing the unpatched boot.img but it is still the old one.

I don't know if I did something wrong or if it is just the old boot.img that I need to replace, pls help.

Ps: I have downloaded the OTA update (13.0.3.0.SJEMIXM) but it only contains a boot.img.p file.
[Redmi Note 9T] NOSS8:
Flash the (13.0.3.0.SJEMIXM)boot.img with O.F .

Use Magisk app for rooting the phone.
[Redmi Note 9T] Rubz_Mod:
I fixed the problem.

All I had to do was find new the boot.img and flash it via fastboot.

I then patched the new boot.img file and then I flashed the patched.img via fastboot.

Thanks for your help

Hi,

Two weeks ago I made a post about my sm-t290's OEM Unlock not appearing (https://xdaforums.com/t/no-oem-unlock-appearing.4488199/#post-87385287). I thought waiting an actual week might help, nothing. Then I decided to give it one more week, and still nothing. I am desperate for solutions. If anyone knows anything relating to this I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks

Hello everyone! I need someone to help.

I know I need to root my Android boot animation to change it directly from the system file, but I can't get a reliable instructional video or article. Can someone explain how I can change the startup animation?

I don't even know what brand my robot is. This is my android info as follows:

My car is Lexus ES200 2021

The audio host comes from "Taobao"

[Android Head-Units] Renate:
This is the documentation on the format. Boot animations

Start simple until you get something working.

There are basically two types, windowed or full-screen.

Watch out for the "gotcha": nothing in the zip file can be compressed (the PNGs are already compressed).

Go and look at the bootanimation.zip that you already have.
[Android Head-Units] box119:
Hi Renate, thank you for your advise. I found my bootanimation.zip in system file, I have tried to save my new bootanimation.zip into system file, but it is not works, because I didn't get root rights.

I'm suffering from bad battery drain. Leaving the phone idle for 5-6 hours and the battery drains from 90% to 49%.

Battery usage nothing is happening. Really weird?
[Vivo X Fold] audscott:
Yes, that's strange and certainly different than my experience. I use the phone constantly day and into the evening, open and folded with from 5 to 8 hours on screen time and still have 40-50% battery. Every bit as good as my previous phone (Galaxy S20).

Have you gotten a system update. I've seen at least one post indicating battery life was improved.

Look a round and you'll find how to download and install manually, if you feel the need.

Best of luck.
[Vivo X Fold] yurushi:
What do you mean download and install manually? I think I might just do a factory reset and see how it goes!

I think SOC 3hrs max. I just check stocks and YouTube and etc... Video call probs drains the most for me
[Vivo X Fold] shoho80:
i don't see much difference in battery drain. last time i had bad battery drain was from google latest update. i had to reinstall the previous version to solve the issue.

[Touch HD General] Hamudi2000:
I have done this on friday. I really like my diamond but I must say allthough in relation to the diamond the HD is no quantum leap but there are many little thing that are improved on the HD:

The display is H U G E, brighter and seems to be more touch responsive.

Touchflo has been improved ( user definable tabs, stock tab, some minor improvements) and seems to be working a lot smoother, even smoother than the TouchFlo 3D from the "pimped" Diamond ROMS.

You´ve got quite a lot more RAM so no RAM shortage even at hungry apps like Igo8.

To be honest there are some things I miss on the HD in comparison to the diamond ie. the notification LED´s on the D-pad but all in all I am more than happy with my HD and don´t regret buying it, so if anyone would like to buy a Diamond, just PM me :)
[Touch HD General] nin2thevoid:
Bought the all powerful HD, sold the almost as powerful Diamond to my brother, never looked back.

The Diamond was 90% for me, the HD 99%... Blackberry Bold was 95% and iPhone was 85%, was comparing with those as well at the time. That one missing % is my ONLY gripe with the HD: the lack of superior screen *quality*, more on that later.

My reasons to buy HD and sell Diamond:

- The screen is now actually big enough to use as a touchscreen, even with WinMo.... Superior browsing and video watching to boot. Perfect!!

- 3.5" jack suddenly allows me to connect my Shures to the thing, despite the HD's mediocre audio quality just like the iPhone and any other non-SE phone

- SD card slot was actually a MUST for me, I want a 32GB card in there the day it comes out. I carry a lot of files with me and my Diamond was always full. Heck, I installed some nav software and it was full, forget movies.

- No more DPad... Shoot me here but the more software tweaks there were for the Diamond, the less I needed the DPad, I only remained to use it when typing, but now they put arrows on the softkeyboard so byebye DPad.

- MUCH FASTER SOFTWARE I am not kidding here the HD is out of the package lightning fast, I don't know what they did right or what they did wrong with the Diamond but on the Diamond I needed a hundred rom flashes to get it to be speedy, and still then, WINMO WAS DAMNED SLOW while my 5 year old PDA did the same things 100 times faster, not so with the HD, which just responds.

- The led on the top of the device to indicate status is a joke when looking at it objectively, such a led must always be on the face of the phone to be of any use. Personally I really want it on the top since I hate having constantly flashing leds drawing my attention, both the Diamond and the Blackberry Pearl annoyed the hell out of me in that regard, a little notification sound or vibrate is more than enough for me to remember I had to check my phone, especially when receiving mail at work every 5 minutes.

However, I am a multimedia addict/professional and so I was sold mostly on the huge screen.

The screen *quality* of the Diamond however, is better. Better viewing angle, better contrast ratio, better color temperature. Don't get me wrong, the HD has a GREAT screen, but compared to the Diamond it tends to look yellowish, bland, a tad cheaper I guess... the things that blow the Diamond screen out of the water are the size, touch layer and backlighting. The touch layer is a mile more responsive than the one on the Diamond screen, and the backlighting is stronger, resulting in a brighter screen.

Don't get me wrong the difference is not huge, but you will notice. Also, the iPhone is about the only TS phone with a good viewing angle, thats why it always looks good in videos when compared with HTC devices, but when viewing the HTCs from front you will not be able to tell the difference in quality other than that the HD screen is so much sharper than other phones.

Old Diamond, New HD

Hi Snoopy997,

I've done the jump.

This video is interesting to compare these 2 devices (even if it's a TP and not a Diamond) : http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=fSaW7U5tDXU

:cool:
[Touch HD General] darthbane2k:
I sold my Diamond for £340 on ebay, got the HD at cost price (due to a contact of mine) at £450. Total price £110.

I dont regret a damn thing, the Diamond had an awesome spec (Apart from its pitiful 4GB storage) but was too damn flawed. Battery was awful, truly awful to the point where I complained to HTC and they suggested I stop pushing email!!

Im glad I sold when I did because the value of the Diamond is falling day after day. The HD is an improvement in everyway. I was always jealous of my Wife's iphone screen - now her screen seem titchy compared to my glorious HD! Go for it, sell the Diamond now or else the value will plummet. I hear HTC want to release a 16GB diamond soon too.. that will depreciate the value of the original even more.
[Touch HD General] mwatson:
To be honest, the HD is just a Diamond with a big screen. ok, the specs are slightly better with HD, but you don't reaaly see that when you're using it. The screen is better on the diamond. Razor sharp with deep colour. The HD isn't quite so sharp and looks a little washed out in comparrison.

I think the diamond perfoms better with GPS. In google maps my location is quite off from where I really am. If i'm driving dorwn a road, the HD thinks i'm not on the road but walking through trees and houses. I can't use mine as a sat nav for that reason.

The HD is ok, but not for £500 when you already have a diamond.
[Touch HD General] Snoopy997s:
Thank you very much for all you responses! Actually, Im moving from an elf touch to a Diamond or Touch HD.

I have reasons for wanting both but haven't really settled on which one yet.

I like the diamond, because its smaller and can be used 1 handed for fone and some other stuff. the dpad helps.

I like the Touch HD, because the huge better res screen, expandable SD card and over all better specs. I'm hesitant because lack of dpad. Not sure how navigating file explorer would be with the touch only input...I guess I could use the stylus too.

can the touch be used 1 handed for opera mini browsing and other simple task, like checking text messages, etc?
[Touch HD General] tunppi:
getting HD next week and keeping my Diamond :> love my Diamond and it is lightning fast with new dutty 3.3.

Huge screen made me buy it and sdhc slot. But bigger screen is always weaker and you have to be more carefull with it, so i also have Nokia 5100 for rough situations :D
[Touch HD General] arfster:
They're totally different phones, simply because of the form factor. The Diamond is high res, but the screen is tiny - that extra inch means 85% more screen area.

As a result, web browsing and video simply isn't practical beyond a novelty. It's a very good phone if neither of those is particular important to you, and of course less screen area means less prone to damage.
[Touch HD General] crystal_clear:
diamond compared to HD....

In a few words.... JUST NO COMPARISON!

Battery life - (charging twice daily), Phone volume (extremely poor), Poor Signal Issues, extremely bad overheating, i actually bought a 2600mA battery bank to cure power issue, the diamond ate the HTC battery bank like jaws eating the back of the ORCA boat in the movie (bank supposed to hold 4 complete charges) and just wanted more and more! 3 Brand new handsets within a 3 month period, all suffering with the above issues, plus a few other issues killed the diamond.

RIP - HTC DIAMOND, i knew you for a short time, its not something i want to remember.... like a nightmare!
[Touch HD General] R3PUBL1K:
I want back to my Diamond and returned the HD. The HD was nice but I thought the screen was to big and the lack off LED notifications (apart from the little red one on the power button) for SMS etc... The ROM use to freeze a lot for upto 10 secs during TF3D navigation.

The HD for me was going to be my true multimedia device but the sound volume and quality did not reach my target.

I decided to get another contract worth £15 per month and a free 8GB touch ipod. :D:D
[Touch HD General] christonge:
Me too... returned and sticking with the Diamond, expected more and it isn´t such a big improvement. Plus it feels much bigger and for everyday use it´s just a bit to big for me. :rolleyes:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idipsum:
Sorry for the trivial question, but I cannot find a user setting to increase that.

Is there any on Android 11?

It should be hightlighted:

NOT the option - "Display / Screen timeout" which determines when the "Home screen" goes blank

But the unknown option which determines when the "Lock screen" goes blank,

On my Samsung with Android 11 the "Display / Screen timeout" is set to 30 s, however my "Lock screen" goes blank after 5 s . I want to increase that.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DavidxxxD:
Display
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idipsum:
Ticket.

There is no such an option in the Settings of Display nor "Home screen" nor "Lock screen".
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idipsum:
Ok, I have found the solution:

Open the Settings app.

Navigate to Lock screen > Secure lock settings.

Tap on “Auto lock when screen turns off.”

Set a longer time according to your preference.

BUT BUT BUT

when you have only "SWIPE" type of your Lock Screen Type, you dont have the "Secure lock settings" option.

In my opinion it is a bug?

But maybe there are some reasons that "Swipe" Lock screen MUST go blank in 5 secs only.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Guides, News, & D] NigrumTredecim:
So i just succeded in downgrading my A3 by flashing boot.img and system.img through OrangeFox recovery, theres not much more to it(and magic probably).

The phone initially didn't boot and just bootlooped not even showing the boot animation only the A3 screen then i let it sit in my backpack for at least a month or two and went to charge it to continue my testing, and to my suprise i got to see the Samsung boot animation just waited and let it boot and there it was succesfully downgraded.

downgraded from S9CTK1 to U1AQF7

internal storage was formatted beforehand

All apears normal so far

apps work

bluetooth works

wifi works

nfc untested

imei/mac all fine

modem untested but didnt get overwritten and is shown correctly so it should work
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Guides, News, & D] gone66:
Hello mate. Any tips on how to do it? Where did you get Boot and system.img from?
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Guides, News, & D] NigrumTredecim:
download the stock firmware (for example from here https://sfirmware.com/de/samsung-sm-a320fl/ ) then unzip them then open the contained tar.md5 files with 7zip and extract all the files in them.

(they may still be img.lz4 so download it from here https://github.com/lz4/lz4/releases and drag your files onto the exe)
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Guides, News, & D] gone66:
Good job mate! I got it working. Android 6. Cheers!

Why is this a good thing?
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Guides, News, & D] NigrumTredecim:
downgrading samsung phones was looked at to be impossible, some devices (note 7 for extreme example) lost functionality with newer software. downgrading like this can fix stuff like that.

the note 7 cant charge the battery anymore with the latest software even if the battery was swapped to a safe smaller battery so you can downgrade and still use it with stock firmware as it never really received any custom roms.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Guides, News, & D] Hubertos2002:
Is this works?
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Guides, News, & D] NigrumTredecim:
not guaranteed to work, as its pretty much just a janky workaround.

worked fine for my a320fl and a520f may not work on newer models

Hello xda. I'm thinking about rooting my note 9 pro.. I have the EEA firmware version latest Android 12 update.

V13.0.1.0.SJZEUXM

I'm thinking about grab the boot.img from the firmware, patch it via Magisk and flash it using fast boot. I mean without twrp. Will it be possible for this phone and this android version? I rooted my mi 8 lite this way and it work like a charm no twrp needed. Did you ever tryed this way to root your note 9?

I mean I can't find a stable twrp version.. Especially for Android 12 🙄.

So if i try the method mentioned above will it work? I don't really need twrp for anything. Only need root.
[Redmi Note 9 Pro (International Model) General and] crok.bic:
Yes, if you simply follow the official Magisk install guide by TopJohnWu (patching the boot.img with the latest Magisk app and flashing it via fastboot - no need for recovery) it will work. In case you have to use apps which need SafetyNet (running on the official ROM).. that's a whole different story.. then you will need USNF, too, etc..
[Redmi Note 9 Pro (International Model) General and] TovMachin:
On MIUI 12 (Android 11) my phone was rooted with Magisk, I updated MIUI and of course the phone got unrooted, I redid the whole boot.img Magisk patching thing and tried installing Magisk, but now it doesn't work, I went around trying a bunch of different TWRP, including unofficial ones, nothing seems to be working.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] DSF:
Let's talk about the Touch Pro performance.

I will post some quotes.

So what do you think? Are the qualcomm chipsets just junk or we got poor drivers? Personally, I was hoping that HTC did learn something after the HTC TyTN II issues..

Another prove of sh*ty graphics on touch pro: Touch Pro landscape redraw issue (videos included)

Furthermore I would like to make some recommendations to see the true performance of touch pro:

- Rats!! http://clickgamer.com/download.htm?pvid=15358

- Ubulis TSE http://www.ionfx.com/product_windows_mobile_obulisTSE.htm (note the req: "200Mhz CPU or higher"

- Spore

- Prince of Persia HD

- Assasin Creed HD

- etc.

Wonderfull, the graphics are so fluid... NOT.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] NuShrike:
How about GL benchmarks between the iPhone, Kaiser, Raphael, and Toshiba G810 Portege?

http://www.glbenchmark.com/compare....ser)&D3=HTC Touch Pro&D4=Toshiba G810 Portege

A lot of it is the quality of HTC's drivers since the Portege does better, but the rest is Qualcomm's fault because even the Protege is inferior compared to an iPhone, N95, etc etc.

However, I cannot find a better phone that has a decent 3D chip on it, has at&t 3G, touch screen, and isn't NDA locked.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] branko.savic:
If Qualcomm is such crap, then why oh why is HTC using it on all new devices? :mad::mad::mad:

Keep me wondering! :confused:
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] DSF:
NuShrike, Touch Pro has a newer CPU that the one found on Toshiba G810 Portege, however, the benchmarks are still unsatisfying.

Here's some interesting information

Full article: http://wmexperts.com/articles/editorials/qualcomm_htc_chipsets_and_feat.html

And here we've got a comparison between touch pro and dell axim v51v (a VGA PocketPC from year 2005).

http://www.glbenchmark.com/compare....whide=true&D1=HTC Touch Pro&D2=Dell Axim X51v

(I've bold the VGA because there are some users that are trying to find excuses of poor performance because of VGA resolution)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] 64QAM:
Because Qualcomm owns wcdma! Anyone developing chipsets will have to pay them royalties which in the end increases cost of the chips and handsets.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] NuShrike:
They probably make their hardware really cheap compared to other solutions.

There aren't many others (or at all) that package 3G WCDMA, asymmetric dual-core ARM11/ARM9, GPS, (WiFi?), BT?, and 3D GPU all into one at a pretty good power envelope.

The problem sounds like it's $$$ to access any of Q's advanced features, and they're not even that good.

Funny part is the CPU design was licensed from ARM in 2002 and is only hitting mainstream last year with the Kaiser/N95. However, it seems Qualcomm never licensed FPU capable ARM11 design, versus TI (N95 cpu) and Samsung (iPhone cpu) whom did.
