[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] Stepland:
It reached the setup assistant you are presented with the first time you power on a phone, without crashing

Unfortunately no :

Wi-Fi doesn't work

I can access the Wi-Fi menu in the settings, I can "turn it on" but it never finds any network. My other phone is doing just fine on my home wi-fi so it's not just that there's no network reachable​

my SIM card is not recognized

Not much to say, I placed it in and the phone says it has no SIM card inserted, even after I reboot​

it takes many attempts to successfully boot the phone

Last reboot took 8 tries​

Surprisingly, Bluetooth seems to be working just fine ? I was able to connect to a bluetooth speaker and play some sounds

Tried blu_spark, exact same problems :

Takes many attempts before a "successful" boot

Wi-Fi broken

Can't detect my SIM card

That worked almost perfectly !

fastboot was refusing to flash radio when the phone was on fastboot

d

, regular fastboot worked just fine, I also flashed with --slot all because ... why not ?

After that the phone booted just fine on the FIRST TRY ! Wifi and mobile data both work !

Unfortunately it's still a bit unstable, after the first boot the phone shut down after about 10 minutes (while I was playing back a youtube video, if that's of any importance ?). It rebooted just fine without crashing even once, and it's now been running for half an hour without a problem.

Well actually it was 13, so I tried flashing 13. it all went fine ! The phone rebooted fine on the first try, wifi and mobile data both work ... I'm speechless, I don't even understand what I did that made it work ... but it works !

I'll try using the phone for a few days and report back any problems if I don't forget about it.

Thank you so much for your help ! I owe you big time
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] Stepland:
Well uh, the joy was short-lived. The phone lasted a couple hours before shuting down and going back into a short series of failed boot attemps, but now every failed boot attempt gets noticeably "further" in the boot animation than they did at the time of my initial post.

The phone managed to boot yet again, wifi + data + bluetooth still work.

Keeping an eye on it for now
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
I honestly don't have any experience with custom ROMs on Pixels, but if you want to return to bone stock, you can use the Android Flash Tool. Since you've been using custom firmware, make sure you check the Force flash all partitions option.

Otherwise, you can refer to my guide to flash the factory firmware and root using Magisk.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] Stepland:
Yup, that's what I did to get it to its current state.

The phone is still unstable, it rebooted itself twice just this morning.

If this is a hardware issue, how do I diagnose it ?
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] hammered58:
If you tried a stock rom, a custom ROM , with all the same results it's probably a hardware issue, have you noticed excessive heat coming from the phone? You could always trade it in for a 6a and get 300.00 credit as long as the screens good and it turns on.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] Stepland:
Yes in fact I have ?! How did you guess that, that's weirdly specific ?

It was heating up a bit, at least enough to be noticeable and to feel abnormal but not uncomfortable. I can't remember if it got warm while it was doing its updates or before. I would have guessed it was just working pretty hard if it had been happening during some updates. Weirdly enough now that it's doing nothing it's not warm anymore

Hmm, that's good to know. I think I'll pass tho, I chose the 4a specifically because it's small and lightweight while not being a completely out-dated phone, the 6a would take me back to more or less the same size and weight as my current phone (xiaomi vince) which I find too big and heavy. Oh the things I'd do for a flagship phone that's like, actually small :rolleyes:
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] Lada333:
As the others have pointed out as well, it is likely a hardware malfunction. Your radio partition (?) was likely corrupt, so we got rid of that, but if random reboots still happen PLUS your device overheats, it's 99% not a software issue.

Not sure about the RMA process, since you imported the device from overseas. Try contacting your POS?
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] hammered58:
Your right though,, it's the size and weight of the 4a that brought me here in the first place so I can see your point in not switching, good luck!!
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] Stepland:
You seem really ticked off, I'm sorry if my answer came out as snarky or something ? that really wasn't the intent

Nevermind, completely misread your answer, non-native english speaker moment
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] Stepland:
Hm, just when I was about to post that the phone seemed to be working fine because it hadn't rebooted for 30+hours ... it just rebooted again.

And yeah it also got warm again while I was installing some apps ... so uh ... no luck
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] Lada333:
That's not necessarily an issue. Installing apps uses the CPU, which, in term, generates heat.

What we and hammerhead meant by 'the phone heating up' is it randomly becoming inexplicably hot.

Like for example when it's just sitting on your desk, not doing anything. No notifications popping up constantly, no music/video playback, nothing. Just when it's supposed to be in deep sleep.

This app is rather outdated and you need to type in 3 adb commands for the advanced stats to show up, but it still works perfectly for finding out if any apps are draining the battery in the background and to see if you have any wakelocks.

You could give it a shot, install it, enable in settings -> general "App Usage," "Device Usage Access" and "Record History," and wait a few days, see if you have any apps misbehaving.

Again, I'm still leaning toward it being a hardware issue, but hey, worth a try.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] Stepland:
I give up, it just has to be a hardware defect.

Since with stock 13 it looked like the phone was almost stable (it would only reboot every 10 hours or so) I tried using it for a day, unfortunately it quickly went back to the exact same state it was in when I created this thread : the phone won't boot, it crashes two seconds into the boot animation.

Still, massive thanks to everyone who helped me through this !

I ordered a replacement.

If anyone wants the broken one my DMs are open
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Fatmonk8:
S22 Ultra still pushing Beta 13 update after withdrawing from Beta Program and downgrading

I have withdrew from the program and reinstalled thru Odin multiple times, but I keep getting an update for Android 13.

Anyone know how to stop it from downloading the Beta?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] fronz:
Since you cant stop it how about trying to capture that beta download and uploading it to xda.. Which S22 do you have?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] butchieboy:
Use ADBapp Control to disable the update
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] mentalpositivity:
I searched on reddit a guy recommended via ADB to change but not sure how it works and need more insight. He recommended "adb shell wm size 1080x1920".

How will this work and will it make content viewing experience better?

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] the_ape:
It will make it significantly worse, as its not the native resolution, that's a 16x9 res, the screen is 4x3. If it fits the whole screen everything will be stretched to heck
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] mentalpositivity:
But is it possible to do? How would I do it only for inner screen? And if it's bad how to revert? I want to try for experiment purpose
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] the_ape:
Wouldn't really know off the top of my head but the inside screen is native 2176x1812 so at 1080p it would look terrible

Why would you possibly want to change the resolution to a non-native one? No non-native resolution will look good on it, as the pixel grid is just not setup for it.

It would be something like

adb shell wm density DPI (where DPI is a DPI)

adb shell wm size 1920x1080 (where 1920x1080 is resolution)

Not 100% sure how to target a specific display though, so you may need to fiddle about

But to run that command your going to need to root the device anyhow

Could have a fiddle in dev options to see if it helps too

View attachment 5702087
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] mentalpositivity:
The dev options min width changed the phone width but not the content.

My intention is to get better video size as sometimes black bars are too big, 50% of the video are black bars
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] imanony:
Do you guys know if the inner screen's resolution as good as the outer screen? the icons and fonts look much bigger on the inner screen compared to the outer screen and outer screen is looking much better compared to inner. I would want to see same level of clarity on the inner screen as outer one.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] the_ape:
Inside screen is 374ppi and outside is 402ppi, so technically the outside is higher "HD Ness"

But on mine seems pretty consistent size wise etc, but I've set the zoom to zero

View attachment 5702151
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] mentalpositivity:
If I want to have videos bigger and less black bars would changing resolution help? Yes would be stretched
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] the_ape:
You won't, and cannot get rid of the bars? Your watching 16x9 formatted content, on a 4x3 screen? There is literally nothing you can do about it.

If you want it filli g, then you need some playback software that will do pan-and-scan lime the old tv's used to do (but the other way around, putting old 4x3 content onto 16x9 screens without the side black bars)

Just deal with it, it is what it is. Wide-screen content will always have black bars on square screens.

After all its still a bigger 'virtual' screen than an s22! Even a s22 Pro, it's only 7mm smaller than the ultra at the end of the day (height of screen so viewing Co tent on its side)
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] ggrant3876:
Don't have to be rooted to run adb commands on any android. I have 2 rooted apps I'm using on my Fold 4 that I always use by simply running

a couple of adb commands. You can Uninstalle bloat on the F4 too but if you don't know what you're doing you may end up with a brick.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] the_ape:
Here's example of different fitting

Best you can do.. But honestly, just live with it, at least the screen is oled so the black bars aren't using energy
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] the_ape:
True you don't need root for a lot of stuff (I've debloared etc) but AFAIK or remember screen res is root only, I may be wrong, but I've not had need to do it since the s3 days..

Hi, has a solution been found in the meantime? I'm on MIUI 13 (A12) too, but have been for a few months now. The smartphone just shut down in my hands and shows no signs of life.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperUserWilliam:
I recently acquired an asus tf101 that was rooted running katkiss and twrp. I changed it to cm10 and now it wont boot on its own or load twrp it just hangs on "Booting recovery kernal image" i have tried everything i could find online such as EasyFlasher and the twrp app but the app wont let me flash the image for some reason (it does havce rooting permitions btw). If anyone could help find out whats going on it would be helpful. I atached some images if that helps.

Thanks in advance.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] va3jlf:
HI SuperUserWilliam

I have the exact same problem you are having and also my tf101 was rooted with katkiss and since I changed it to cm, I cannot boot into recovery or bootloader. Please let me know if you find a way out of this because I am going to have to trash my tf101 otherwise. Thanks.

These are the plugins i've managed to run on my ipaq , which were not intended to run on it:

All of them were downloaded from this forum, so many many thanks to the developers. For now i'll be providing feedback as i don't have paypal so can't donate anything else...

-Touch Flo (Manila) 2d

-Samsung Touch Wiz - with the limitations of the non WQVGA screen - cannot minimize the side bar.

-Fe Widgets - working very stable, axcept for the weather plugin - frameworks reports error. It's due to the ROM i'm using - the russian one with manila in it v1.6.

I think there won't be problems with the original hp rom.

Throttle launcher with touchflo 3d-ish interface - just installed it. Feedback later.

I'll be posting screenshots and detailed feedback later.

[OnePlus 10 Pro] dannytgt:
Hi guys, I've read almost all a of the post avalaible about converting the Chinese NE2210 to NE2215 or NE2213, but I've seen a lot of bricked devices around there.

So I want to ask to all the people that make successful the conversion, if there so risky at it appears, it worth the price?

I'm very pleased with Color OS, but the WhatsApp notification problem it's driving me crazy, something it works sometimes not.

Thanks in advance for your response guys.
[OnePlus 10 Pro] unsafe8989:
So I converted from NE2215 to NE2213, easy enough I'll tell you exactly how I did it. First and foremost you want to factory reset your device and if you where rooted make sure you're not anymore. Then you'll want to get one of the Rollback ZIPs from here:

OnePlus Community

Introducing our new OnePlus Community experience, with a completely revamped structure, built from the ground-up.

community.oneplus.com

You'll want to follow the instructions on how to flash the rollback with your desired rom.

That's it, your phone will boot up on A.12 of whichever version you rollback too and you can update OTA normally from there. If you need anymore help just ask!
[OnePlus 10 Pro] dannytgt:
Thanks for your answer, but i'm ny case it will be from NE2210 to NE2213 or any similar oxygen os model, coming from the chinese Color OS, i don't know if that's posible, i've tried with the enhanced fast boot tool múltiple times but was unsuccessful.
[OnePlus 10 Pro] abdulhamid1978:
I have a NE2210 which the seller converted to NE2215 using the same method. I then converted it from NE2215 to NE2213 using this method as well.
[OnePlus 10 Pro] dannytgt:
I've tried this method right now; but definitely doesn't worked, i guess it will work when you roll back from any Oxygen model version; but not from Color OS.
[OnePlus 10 Pro] abdulhamid1978:
Did you use this method? If so, what exactly happened? There are 2 methods below. Also which version of Color Os are you on?

OBT to MP rollback guide - via Local OTA update (NA ONLY)

Note: This downgrade method only works for NA version, IN and EU users please refer to the rollback guide above.

Note: This rollback method will erase all the contents of the phone, please be sure to backup first. Some applications may be lost after upgrading, you can restore the lost applications by installing the packages below.

Install this apk . You'll need it to rollback. Then, open the app -> tap the top right gear icon -> find the downgrade package and tap it -> wait to finish the installation -> tap reboot

After the rollback is complete, click Restart.

Rollback successful.

Please note that if you are not able to click "Local install", you can try the following step to fix it:

Disconnect all Wi-Fi and Mobile data

[OnePlus 10 Pro] dannytgt:
Thanks for yoour interest and help, I've tried the second method you quoted trought the system updater, but i try on "local install" I get a "Verification failed" message.

After your answer I've tried the listed apk method , but doesn't happen, i've got : "move installation package into roor directory", tried your recommendations, but doesn't work either.

I'm actually on Color OS 13.0.0 NE2210_11_C.18, i dont know if that has some influence.
[OnePlus 10 Pro] abdulhamid1978:
See if there is a rollback package to go from Color OS 13 to 12, and then try again. I have no idea if neither method worked.

After your answer I've tried the listed apk method , but doesn't happen, i've got : "move installation package into roor directory", tried your recommendations, but doesn't work either.

Did you save the rollback package on the root of the internal storage?
[OnePlus 10 Pro] dannytgt:
That's exactly what i´m doing right now, i can´t find a rollback package but i guess and old Color 12.1 version will work as well.

Yes, i've moved the file into the root folder and delete the .jar extension on the name.
[OnePlus 10 Pro] abdulhamid1978:
This was the rollback package file I downloaded:

OnePlus 10 Pro EU Version

2354_sign_NE2213_11_A_OTA_0120_all_9f570f_01000100.zip

I did not have to rename it at all, just saved the above file in the root. Mine did not have a .jar extension.

Used this apk to install from root

I then installed this the same way:

Here are the latest packages of OxygenOS 12 to help you restore the lost applications after rollback to Android 12:

OnePlus 10 Pro EU Version (A.15)

NE2213_11_A_OTA_0150_all_90846a_01000100.zip

Hope you find a solution
[OnePlus 10 Pro] dannytgt:
I've tried with the Color OS 12.1 package, al least get recognized by the "local upgrade app" but it gives me this error:

"The version of your selected package is lower than that of the current systema. To avoid booting failure, downgrading is not allowed".

So Im stuck at Color OS 13 i guess, i dont know if there is an especific Color Os 13 rollback package, i've search it , but cand find anyone, onle the same you quoted me.

I would asume the only avalible method is to flash trought enhanced fastboot, however since I've tried multiple times and can't delete de .cow files at partition, better to get familar with Color OS.
[OnePlus 10 Pro] Yaj00j:
just discovered i have the same phone.. 2210 12gb256 converted to 2215 out of the box (bootloader was locked)..

may i ask what are the advantages, if any, of shifting to 2213 over the 2215?

i just found that rooting a 2210 converted to 2215 causes the ram extension feature to break. (phone is on android 13 c26 jan update)

is yous rooted on 2213? does anything break or are there any major bugs? does the ram extension work (does it show 12gb+xgb in about device)?
[OnePlus 10 Pro] abdulhamid1978:
I have not rooted the phone. One benefit for 2213 is OTA updates are received faster.
