[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] expat42451:
Recently purchased an X205 in Ecuador, CSC is COO, Colombia. Tab is on Android 12. I am using it to replace a heavy laptop and increase portability. Normally I would root it and play with different ROM's but I need it to be secure to do financials with..... banking, crypto. Talking with Samsung South America I am told that the X200/205 will be receiving both periodic security updates as well as Android 13--that being I am told, sometime around January. When I first turned the tablet on I got 3 updates in a row. Since then, no more and I show the last security update was dated September 1, 2022. While there are more recent security updates showing on the Samsung site...

Samsung Mobile Security

security.samsungmobile.com

the most recent Sammobile firmware for my tablet....and the CSC for my tablet is COO--Colombia, our northern neighbor, is the one I am running. There are no further updates either with OTA or with Samsung's tethering program for Windows. While I understand that part of this is sit and wait, there are later updates on Sammobile for different CSC's, the most recent for the X205 being in November. I also know its possible to change the CSC. So a couple of questions--

I read that Sammobile is reputable for providing Samsung signed firmware,true?

If I change the CSC and then use Odin to load a later firmware does that burn me from getting later OTA updates and hopefully Android 13?

One of the things I have done to make the tablet more responsive on various tasks is to enable developer mode and disable all animations which helped. I read elsewhere here that users who have Samsung phones that have received the update to 13, that response is quicker and its a smoother experience than on 12. Has anyone gotten 13 for the X200/X205 and what 's it like on this device?

Many thanks.

Alright so i was thinking today since i use my jogger bar for scrolling not volume what if there was an easyer way to control it like holding down FN then pressing up or down, and there isnt much of a screen brightness control so hold down fn and press left/right to lower and raise brightness. I dunno just a thought
[HTC Excalibur] 1Airborne1:
is it even possible? cause it would help me out alot
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
I think it could be possible however you would need to tweak the registry, which I am not familiar really with.
[HTC Excalibur] 1Airborne1:
ya it would be cool if someone could find a way to do this im sure im not the only one who could use this. Im a registry newby so i wont evern try to figure it out :)
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
I will see if my friend can figure this out and get back to you asap... :)
[HTC Excalibur] pudgedaddy:
there is a volume control option when using smarttoolkit. you just press your right softkey and it brings up 5 options... one of them is a volume control. As for the screen brightness.. i really dont know... maybe jdogg will figure it out.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
I doubt the Excalibur has the necessary drivers to control the screen brightness anymore than "LowLight" already does... which is either really dim or full bright :)
[HTC Excalibur] 1Airborne1:
Yeah Screen brightness was just and idea not a nessity but thanks jdoggraz

Hello, I recently flashed to eu rom, and I wanted to root my phone so I followed this tutorial.

HOW TO ROOT AND UNROOT POCO F3/REDMI K40 METHOD 1 (TAGALOG) | Najskie - YouTube

Followed it properly and did the last partition _b and rebooted.

Problem is it now started to bootloop, It just stops at the MIUI animation.

Can anyone help?

I can enter Fastboot and recovery mode just fine.

I need it to be working tomorrow as I have a long thesis presentation and I use my phone for everything.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Deleted member 12320397:
A quick solution to make the phone working would be to wipe from recovery and then flash any ROM.

I never rooted so I can't help with that one.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] DXPOHIHIHI:
Yes, I wiped from recovery but it is still on bootloop, how do you flash the rom again? I mean I know how to but my phone won't show up as device on ThisPC, it just makes the connect sound. I installed the adb driver while on fastboot but still doesnt show up on thispc.

Wait nevermind it showed up just now, ok ill try to flash a rom.

This is the method i use,

I hope you`ve sorted it.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] DXPOHIHIHI:
Thank you it worked, sadly all my data is gone because I accidentally wiped and flashed by accident.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] johnr64:
Hi,

I`m glad your working again, if you have Root then i would suggest to use a program called Migrate-GPE, (it`s in 3 parts) and found on the play store, it saves all your apps including there data into zip files, this is very useful for when your changing roms, you can re-install easily with out the need to download all your apps again and more importantly is saves there data, I.E: Google maps off-line, AccuBattery data, ect.

I hope this helps for the future.
[General Topics] v00x:
The device started boot looping i couldn't even get into stock recovery so i tried with fastboot commands that didn't work either.

USB debugging wasn't enabled, so i couldn't unlock the bootloader.

Then by mistake i flashed a firmware for the wrong chipset and now it's bricked.

When i search i can only find OTA updates, but not the whole stock firmware. So if someone has the device or the firmware and can post a link it'll be very helpful!

On a couple of pages i saw the device's chipset listed as - MT8735, but i found a scatter file for the same device model with MT6737M... I'm a bit confused now.

Hi everyone

I recently flashed the Dec 2022 DVKB update on my fold3. downloaded the Update using the EUY CSC using and Flashed using odin

My original CSC is INU and I have used EUY CSC for flashing updates in the past with zero issues

Initially there were no issues for a couple of hours but then suddenly there was no sound at all coming from the phone

no sound even if it was open or closed. no sound from notifications or media like spotify or netflix etc

then suddenly the sound came back on its own but there was a cracking noise before regular music or sound

then it disappeared again on its own after 5 to 10 mins.

The same appearance and disappearance happened again today randomly twice

I have checked hearing enhancements in accessibility settings -- all seems ok mono sound is off and mute all sounds is off

BUT if I am streaming to bluetooth device or on spotify to a connected device through the phone bluetooth sound is very much there on that device ..just not on my phone speaker

Steps I have taken already:

1. I have tried restarting the phone- didnt help

2. I tried the samsung members app for speaker testing.. it says contact service center

3. I have even reset the phone settings.. didnt help

4. I reset the phone to factory settings - didnt help

5. I have downgraded to DVK3 NOV 2022 firmware using odin - didnt help

6. Re upgraded to DVKB using odin and reset to factory settings again - didnt help

7. booted in safe mode to try system sounds - didnt help

Currently there is no sound but it comes and goes on its own but always accompanied by crackling sound when it comes

Can anyone please help or guide further

Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] AndrOmega:
try these:

install sound assistant and play with the settings

try some usbc headsets but before that clean usb port

seems the update broked the audio driver

maybe some sound boost apps may help you

please report back
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] darudedudedocta:
Thanks for the reply..

I tried the sound assistant app after your suggestion and tinkered with its settings - still no sound

Cleaned out the USB port and attached USB C headphones - getting both system and media sounds smoothly

And again streamed it to bluetooth devices - smooth sound

No sound through the phone speaker at present still.

I'm flummoxed.. just thinking of either taking it to samsung service center or waiting for the next software update which maybe will fix it
[HTC Desire C] A_matin12:
Hello friends

Past few days i've been trying everything to install the stock ROM on my HTC Desire C

Since it's worth a lot for me, I really need the phone to be working

The problem began when I decided to install custom ROM on it

I unlocked the bootlocker and flash TWRP

But when I tried to install the cm-12.1-20150617-UNOFFICIAL-golfu.zip, it finished successfully but never booted up properly

So i thought it might be a problem with the version of the custom rom itself

Then I tried every version from 12 to 10, none of them worked

So i thought "Hell with these custom roms, I just want the stock rom"

And it was at that moment that I realized it's not like samsung phones in which you just put some files inside Odin and click install

There are some `exe` files. So I downloaded some of them from the internet (image below)

View attachment 5782503

So I relocked the bootlocker. The exe files went half on, then errored out with `[155] Unknown Error` and when I disconnect the cable, it's like this:

View attachment 5782509

What should I do now?

I appreciate any help
[HTC Desire C] Ulumia:
You didn't lock it.

It is still UNLOCKED.

Use RUU for your CID.

Can you upload RUU for HTC_Europe region somewhere and pass the link?

I saved the sections in img from my Russian Desire C and it's version 2.01.401.6

When I get home to the PC I can share them
[HTC Desire C] A_matin12:
Sorry for late reply

Can you describe more in details how i should lock it?

And i'll appreciate if you send me the version you have

Unfortunately I don't have those files anymore but I'm searching for them right now to send it for you
[HTC Desire C] Ulumia:
To lock the fastboot oem lock

For now, I am in the hospital and can't pass them on

There is a RUU for Asia

Installation as a normal RUU

And 2.01.401.6 which I gave to my Russian HTC Desire C without NFC red

They need to be installed with fastboot flash system name.img etc
[HTC Desire C] A_matin12:
Thanks I'll try it

I'm sorry to hear that

I'd appreciate if you send me those when you're free🙌
[HTC Desire C] A_matin12:
Now it's saying "Relocked"

I guess now the only thing i need is RUU
[HTC Desire C] Ulumia:
You have them.

You probably need HTC_Europe
[HTC Desire C] A_matin12:
As i said before, I didn't have access to them and didn't even know where I downloaded them

But now I've found them

Which one did you want me to share with you?

Still I have an issue

Since the phone doesn't boot, I have to keep it in fastboot but Windows doesn't recognize it. So when I run the RUU, it says the phone isn't recognized and gives me errors

I don't remember how i solved it before
[HTC Desire C] Ulumia:
HTC_Europe

Have you tried basic things like trying a different USB cable and/or a different USB port?

When the PC does recognize the smartphone can you copy the result of the

fastboot getvar all

command in its entirety?
[HTC Desire C] A_matin12:
File on MEGA

mega.nz

There you go

I installed htc drivers and now when i connect it to windows, it says `FASTBOOT USB`. So it recognizes it

But when i run the ruu, it says `USB Connection Error`

Windows still doesn't recognize the phone :/

it says `FASTBOOT USB` but when i run fastboot commands, it says `waiting...`

I ran all the fastboot commands from linux

Why is flashing stock roms so F hard on htc :/
[HTC Desire C] A_matin12:
It's because of S-On

To turn it off, i need to unlock bootloader again

Damn, is there another way?
[HTC Desire C] Ulumia:
Hmm you have a very strange CID for which I do not think there is a RUU

Try to unlock the bootloader again then

fastboot oem writecid HTC__A07

then lock again and install RUU for HTC_Europe

Instructions on how to do this are on htcdev.com, you will need an HTCDev account for this.

Select All Other Supported Models.

Maybe it worked and errors in the process are normal.

Can you tell me what it says at the very top of the boot loader and copy the output of fastboot getvar all again?

Hi guys,

I have a Seicane android 10 unit in my Honda.

There is no sound through my speakers once I'm connected via Bluetooth. I can see that I'm connected successfully, even displaying the track I'm playing from my phone. Also, I have no sound if I'm using the you tube app from my head unit. I have sound using my radio, also the Google maps navigation voice only works if I have the radio playing. Very strange.

Any help would be appreciated.
[Android Head-Units] j-5:
On my unit, whenever I switch sources, the volume defaults to zero. Check if that's the case with yours.
[Android Head-Units] Longstebe:
Cheers mate but unfortunately that's not the issue. One thing I did notice whenever I switch the Bluetooth on the sound actually works for a split second. Really frustrating.

That being said, if bluetooth turned off, it can auto connect as long as car's engine still on. That did not happen to miui 12.5 which rapidly auto-connect. Anybody has any idea how to fix this?

[Xiaomi Mi 10T / 10T Pro Questions & Answers] sanctitude888:
I managed to get it fixed by putting the car audio in bluetooth connection mode, go to bluetooth app then toggle allow fullscreen app. In connect state it will disconnect then reconnect. In our case, it'll force connect to nearby previously connected device. That leaves another issue, which is media info won't update. So we kinda stuck with first song info or podcast title, then it won't refresh. Probably due to xiaomi policy to limit data transfer or simply unresolved bug. Luckily I have Samsung device which I use most of the time in this regard.

[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] amirage:
Pixel 7 Pro is no different in terms of battery life especially since the chipset has Exynos DNA. I'd stay clear of Xiaomi and Oneplus as both are notorious when it comes to software updates. If you really want battery champions, you should look at mid-range devices. This is a segment that's been innovating a lot. You get most of the flagship features in mid-range phones today whilst having long-lasting battery life. However much I'd hate to say it, if you are looking for a flagship with the best battery life, the iPhone 14 Pro Max is the only one out there.
