[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] xysen0:
Hello,

I have a5 2017 phone from polish GSM network named "Play" (p4). I have it from unboxing. I always had stock rom, with operator bloatware.

After 2 years being powerfull phone - display started to being dark and darker. After few days it was totally dead. Warranty topic not important now, as warranty period is done.

I have tried to connect through usbc-hdmi adapter. Doesn't work.

Now I have tried to run it and it runs. Even I have started it using VOL+ , HOME and POWER and I could open menu. I taken factory reboot. Now the phone is in wizard mode, but I saw on youtube videos there is also possible to enter adb sideload mode.

I tried... and that was possible. But only adb sideload is possible on this step and scrcpy is not able to run

scrcpy 1.25 <https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy>
ERROR: Device could not be connected (state=sideload)
ERROR: Server connection failed

So, the main question is - is it possible to enable adb on adb sideload mode?

If not - is there any possibility to mirror screen from phone?

I am aware that phone without screen is totally unusable but wth scrcpy it can be usefull for testing. :)

regards,

Hi Guys.

My neighbor asked me to check his appliance.

The device is turning on, loading the Motorola Android logo, and after that it starts loading a logo in a circle written `Erasing`.

I already tried holding the ``Power`` button and volume down. But it still remains in bootloop.

I already pulled the battery and tried the process several times, with no solution.

@lunatikk

First link is Manila2D is "like" the Manila on Diamond, but 2D not 3D

Second link is a Rom with 3D Driver, you have to install Manila3D seperate. You can find Manila3D Port in Dev. Section of forum
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] bubittu:
this roms are developed to work with classic action 3d drivers.

after the rom updating you must install this 3 cabs

1)htc-ca-polaris drivers

2)touch flo 3d qvga

3)touch flo stand by

4)soft reset-disable touchflo-enable touch flo 3d

now you have a diamond interface

[Google Pixel 7] philosoraptor7:
Hello everyone, I recently got a Pixel 7!

I have yet to unlock my pixel, but I was wondering if relocking the bootloader would be as it was never unlocked.

Assuming that, possibly, I restore the stock rom and relock the bootloader will my pixel show the bootloader unlocked warning at boot?

Most importantly, the "OEM Unlock" settings under "Developer options" will be greyed out or forced on? Will it show something like "bootloader already unlocked"?

Or would it be exactly as if I never unlocked it?

Thanks for your replies :)
[Google Pixel 7] V0latyle:
Essentially yes

No, this screen only displays if the bootloader is unlocked

If you relock the bootloader, data will be wiped, which means that the OEM Unlock toggle is reset to Off.

Don't need to ask the same question twice

Happy to help

If you want to restore your device to stock and relock the bootloader in one go, use the Android Flash Tool

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vincent Foxx:
have this kids tablet pbskd7200, it looks like it's from 2020.

We bought it used as a gift to one of my nephews, it was complete, pretty much open box quality, but it's running a full fat Android 10 instead of Android go edition.

Judging from the specs this tablet should be able to run Android 10. Every app, game, including settings all crash and default to home screen (I disabled all pbs apps via adb, also all useless bloatware)

I tried everything to fix this, my last hope is to find a older version of Android, but I can't find any guides or roms to flash. Or a light weight one

Would be great if someone can send me a link to a rom or guide to do this. Oem is unlocked from the developers settings.

I would like to start by saying I have found this forum to be extremely helpful and THANK YOU! I have been able to find any tweak, program, cab, etc... by searching the web (usually ending up on this site), but I can not find a solution to this problem.

I no longer have the "flash" button on the camera software. The phone works fine, the camera works fine, it takes pics, I just have no "flash" option anymore. I'm sure it was due to some tweak I did...maybe trying a prog to use the camera led as a flashlight (not sure). My question is, is there a way to restore or a cab to reinstall the camera? led/flash? or both? I dont mind getting really technical if needed.

Thanks in advance,

[Introductions] duffsparky:
Hi to all and thanks to Contributor and Moderator Tom and Andrew for the welcome.

Not only am I a Noob to to XDA but also a Noob to Android, so I have a lot to learn and being older in years that should be interesting (not).

I was recently given a Motorola Moto G6 (ali xt1925-4, single SIM) to replace my older gas driven Lumia 610 Windows 7.5 Phone.

Much to my disgust I realised that Android devices typically have a rather short support life and with the device no longer being supported by OS or security updates, I decided to have a go at replacing its Android 9 (Pie) OS with something more recent.

After much trial and even more error I managed to install PixelExperience_Plus_ali-12.1 (Android 12) using TWRP 3.7 without bricking the phone, though I think I came close on a few occasions:D.

For the most part the install seems to have worked, however, there are a few glitches but I'll ask about these in the appropriate section(s) on the forum.
[Introductions] blackhawk:
Welcome to XDA.

Lol, you made a Android rookie mistake... in my opinion. I run 2 N10+'s, one on Pie the other 10. Both are running on what they came loaded with new. The oldest one hasn't been updated for over 3 years, deliberately.

It's current load is over 2 5 yo, still fast, stable and fulfilling its mission. No malware is all that time; security is not an issue. I prefer Pie over Android 10; more functional and easier to troubleshoot. I value my N10+'s and neither will be upgraded beyond their current firmware for the rest of their service lives more than likely. They run like bats out of hell... what's not to like?

Now for the really bad news🤣 CPU cycle sucking scoped storage is fully active on Android 11 and 12. You can likely roll back from 12 to 11 but not back to 10. Many have rolled back from 12, feel the wuv.

Samsung updates and firmware upgrades can and do break devices especially true near the end of the devices support cycle. Samsung has been do this for many years. Anything from Android 9 and up are relatively secure for real time use; security isn't a reason to upgrade.

In the future look before you leap. Again my opinion from what Samsung has taught me... Rule #1 - if the firmware is fast, stable and fulfilling its mission, let it be! You have little to gain and a lot to lose especially in terms of time.

Androids are easy to learn; just play with it and read about it as needed. A steep learning curve but playing makes perfect.

Always redundantly backup critical data to at least 2 hdds that are physically and electronically isolated from each other and the PC or eventually you will lose data. Write down your Google account password. Learn how Google FRP works so you don't get locked out of your device.
[Introductions] duffsparky:
Way over my head I'm afraid.

Motorola provide a rescue app that reinstalls the last official upgrade. I've already used this when I thought I had bricked the phone so all may not be lost if Android 12 proves to problematic. If all else fails I can always frame it and put on the wall :)

That's interesting but is contrary to much of what I've read; however a lot of what I've read has likely been biased to encourage buying a new device not extending the life of an old one.

No fun in that especially when it's cold and raining outside.

I'm retired

The main reason for the upgrade was to learn - rather than to use. Playing with it is the object of the exercise.
[Introductions] blackhawk:
Whatever gives you kicks. Personally I use whatever works best to fulfill the mission.

I want minimal downtime and zero critical data loss. I'm retired as well but don't enjoy chasing my tail for Google. Same games as MS. No.

My phone will either bleep for all events and notifications, or not make any noises at all. I want it to disallow noises for programs, disallow noises for hanging up, or errors in the OS. But bleep when I get a damn text message. All my settings indicate that this is what should happen, but it isn't what actually happens. Who in the world wants their phone to bleep all the time when they're using it? No-one is who. It serves no purpose and is inappropriate at work.

Enabling sound for programs and notifications enables sound for everything including SMS

Disabling sound for programs shuts everything up, but disables sound for notifications, muting the SMS alert.

Windows Mobile is just brilliant!
[XPERIA X1 General] tunnelrat:
Ahh, finally a solution. This has been driving me nuts for the past 3 hours..

Yes, it is crazy that you have to enable sound for programs to get a sound when a SMS arrives. Probably because WinMo considers SMS client to be a program.

Thanks at45 for the hint, now my X1 works again..
[XPERIA X1 General] fards:
Enable the programs and notifications, then go into the advanced and tick off the play sound for everything you dont want to sound.

My phone doesn't bleep all the time with errors, have you got "events" enabled or disabled, 'cos that's the one that makes the system noises.
[XPERIA X1 General] at45:
No, that's not the solution. There are no check boxes for things like 'hang up' or 'close pocket outlook'. They just bleep anyway. Events aren't enabled.

Edit: ...and don't beep for 'message sent' confirmation.

[Motorola Edge 30] navi7512:
Hi, i found that. However, the software in my phone is not enabled for dual sim.
[Motorola Edge 30] djdieg96:
I'm looking for the exact same thing. Maybe is a motorola manufacturing thing, a specific model of the motorolas, both, moto Z and moto z2 play used to have variants, specifically, I had the MX variant of the MZ2 Play, that was the exact hardware that the brazil variant was, long story short, I was able throug a guide to unlock the second sim (slot with plastic) that she software blocked, the same that the Brazil variant had unlocked out of the box.

I have been looking around, it hasnt been done on the Edge 30, but if we could find the original source of the tutorial of the other two models maybe a really good mod maker (fun name for a master hacker), could make a ooerative guide to achieve the same thing on this model.

In my research I've found two things: 1. my model XT 2203-1 is the exact one that the double sim has.

2. The single sim model (my phone) has the terminals inside the phone for the second sim and also, the sim tray is totally the same, besides that blocking plastic on the back.

If someome wants to, I'm up for a research, or even some tests. I've also read that flashing the dual sim rom, or rooting and changing a couple settings used to do the trick on the original moto z model.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] kosherpig:
This is a touch screen. It is not plain plastic, so I wouldn't use ANY kind of polishing tool, because it would probably damage touch sensor. Maybe just use a good screen protector which will mask current and protect you from next scratches.

[Redmi Note 10 Pro] flashernoob:
Ayo,

i got a new N10Pro EEA and tried to update it to the latest official ROM to play a bit with it.

Bootloader is unlocked since yesterday, and i tried to download the 13.0.15 and 13.0.16 from different sites. Checked CRCs and all are good.

Unpacked the TGZ file and added the necessary fastboot.exe and files. (Did it this way a lot of Redmi Note 8T times... ;) )

Got the device in fastboot mode, connected it and started the flash_all.bat

It goes through until it tries to flash part 7 of the super image, then it fails with a CRC error.

It does this on either the EEA version (13.0.16) and the global (13.0.15), and i've checked repeatedly that my files are ok and i'm positive they are.

I edited the super line out of the file and all the others go through flawlessly, but now my device just bootloops because the most of data is corrupt of course.

What did i do wrong?

I just had a SIM in there, registered the Mi account (i used it for all my RN8Ts), unlocked it with a week wait and nothing more.

No Wifi, no other accounts, just the minimum necessary to unlock it, then tried to flash....

Can't and won't activate USB debugging as phone is softbrick now. Didn't need to on my RN8Ts, either.

The ROM is Xiaomi stock, flashing instructions are "unpack tgz, connect phone in fastboot mode, start flash_all.bat", which is what i did (as with all the RN8Ts i have)

TWRP it is the next step, but first i need it to work with the latest official ROM...

I'd prefer OFox but i think there is no version for Android 12/MIUI 13. The beta has V11 in the name so it's for Android11, not?
