[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] Pigmeaki:
Hey people,

I have been looking around on XDA for quite some time now but this will be my first post. I have a mi 9T that I replaced the broken AMOLED screen with a normal LCD one. The problem is that after the screen started working again my phone's battery discharges incredibly fast even when it is idle. I have tried pretty much everything (including the solutions suggested in previous threads). First I thought it might be a battery problem, so I swapped the battery. No difference. Second I flashed different roms (EvolutionX and CherishOS) but nothing changes. I can't think of anything else to try, but if someone has any suggestions of how to troubleshoot this I would greatly appreciate it!
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] yaro666:
Install just ROM,for example lineage and don't restore apps. Check if apps are the problem or hardware
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] Pigmeaki:
I am new to flashing etc so could you explain? You mean do what i did for my current rom but with LineageOS?
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] yaro666:
Install whatever you want, just don't restore apps. See if it's software related
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] Pigmeaki:
Every install I have been doing is without restoring anything, just the Gapps that the ROM has. Not even connecting to the internet. Still the same
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] top_banana123:
It's taking up much needed space and I'm not even using opera although I havent managed to uninstall it either.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Brendo:
you cant get rid of it becuase it is in the rom. youll need to flash with a rom that does not contain it

Hi there,

After

gem install xcode-install

It returned

ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::FilePermissionError)
You don't have write permissions for the /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.3.0 directory.

How to resolve this issue?

Thanks in advance.

[Android Head-Units] Johnralf:
Hello,

I would like to understand more about the canbus box, hope someone could share some knowledge.

I see the models for sell and is like, model 1 is for 3 cars of the Y brand, other is model 2 is for 10 cars for brand X brand and so on... And if i check for example RZN vs HiWorld is almost the same car list.

I think the data the canbus have is not specific to the type of car, but for the can version of the car correct?

So, if a box have information for the Sylphy and for the Tiida, i can select any of these in the car select of the car?

I ask this because i have a sentra/sylphy, my box is Raise and my unit have sylphy only on the hiworld box, i use X-Trail in Raise and i have the basic working fine, dash TFT with radio infos, clock etc... But the new unit that i don´t install yet, don´t have sylphy/sentra in any place (i already ask a update for the vendor).

Another question related but not so much, these boxes make the 6v for the backup camera too? My current box use a exterior 12v - 6v converter, but the new one don´t have any of these, only the box.

Thanks for all the replies! :)
[Android Head-Units] kommando:
I have seen both types, one where the 6V came out of the Canbus decoder directly to the camera and another Canbus decoder from the same maker where that same wire went into a 12V/6V converter before feeding the camera. Suggest you probe the camera voltage feed wire before trying to connect the camera, I did on the first Canbus decoder and found 6V.
[Android Head-Units] Johnralf:
Indeed, after i read your message i check the Upindo vendor in aliexpress, he share the pins layout, and i compare some boxes there, not only some have 6v output but some have 16pins and others 20pins.
[Google Pixel 7] hp420:
I've been plagued by fingerprint issues just like everyone else. But I've also been running an experiment. Every time my fingerprint won't unlock the phone I wash my hands. AND IT WORKS EVERY SINGLE TIME!! The sensor is EXTREMELY sensitive!! If you have even one speck of dust it could fail to unlock.

I promise you.... try it!! It will work every single time!!

I mean really, thanks Google!!! I probably should wash my hands more if they're dirty enough to keep the sensor from working.
[Google Pixel 7] V0latyle:
Helps to clean the sensor now and then, too. I have this issue on my Pixel 5 all the time.
[Google Pixel 7] 96carboard:
I actually find the opposite. If my fingers have any dampness at all, it won't read properly.
[Google Pixel 7] vkass:
I only wash my hands once a week and the sensor works fine
[Google Pixel 7] mohan_168:
Do you have any protection applied on the phone ?
[Google Pixel 7] t-ryder:
Wash my hands? I never had a device with in display fingerprint which needed washed hands.

I just added a new tempered glass screen protector, and that one is known for being awesome. I added all four fingerprints again, and it all worked like a charm for like five hours. 10/10 instant unlock. Today it does not work anymore. 3/10 unlock and slow. It's a software issue I guess and by now I'm totally fed up with the incompetence of the Google developers. It's a 750€ device, and even 200€ BBK phones got better working fingerprint readers.

I'm quite pi**ed.
[Google Pixel 7] bobby janow:
That happens to me too sometimes. Like perfect for a day or so then no matter what I do it's 3/10 just like you. I then reboot and it usually clears it up. One fail safe method it to rub your thumb (or whatever finger you use) across your forehead then try again. I've heard licking your finger but that is disgusting and I'd never do that. Try those 2 methods see if it helps. The March update also seems to make it quicker but it could be placebo.
[Google Pixel 7] manjaroid:
I've gone from being pissed to being amused at how bad it is. For me 7 is worse than 6 ever was. Hell, just getting a couple digits enrolled on 7 has been impossible, and for an extra rub it teases and craps out at the 11:55 mark every time.

To be fair, I work with lumber and my digits tend to be rough. But this never stopped me from using fingerprints with older and cheaper phones.
[Google Pixel 7] TheMystic:
What that means is the fingerprint sensor on your phone is of poor quality, just like some of the other components.

Google Pixel phones and their clean (read very basic with lack of features) software are both overrated and overpriced. You're essentially paying the premium to cover their marketing costs, and not for buying a better device.
[Google Pixel 7] poit:
I live in a dry environment, and I find that if my fingers are particularly dry the FPS doesn't work. Just breathing on my fingertip is usually enough to get the FPS to work. That being said, the March 2023 update seems to have improved the FPS significantly for me. Or it may be placibo effect.
[Google Pixel 7] t-ryder:
It's 2:00 AM here, I switched off the lights in my room, took my P7, removed all four fingerprints, added them again sitting in full darkness. Turned on lights again. Well... now the fingerprint reader has never been so fast, unlocking so snappy and even with a soft and short touch with the tip of my finger. Hilarious.

I hope the devs at Google optimize the software for this mess of a sensor. What a sh*tshow.
[Google Pixel 7] t-ryder:
And now at 10:30 AM it does not work anymore... LOL. No matter how I press the sensor, it forces me to put in my PIN to unlock.
[Google Pixel 7] New Folder:
This is weird that some people have problems with FPS while others don't.

I was initially afraid about this FPS issue reading all the bad experiences but it works basically 99% of times.

I still suspect it has more to do how you position your finger on the learning phase and is the finger dry or moist.

Because during learning phase it didn't ask to retouch the sensor with moist fingers but did ask to try again with dry finger. I suspect if you teach with moist finger it expects moist fingers but with dryer fingers it seems to not matter that much. On learning phase i pressed slightly harder compared to normal use.

I relearned finger 3 times because on the first two tries it would work about 50% of times. I remember i pressed quite gently on first tries since it looked like it registered it.

On the last try i had semi-dry fingers and tried to mimic normal unlocking position while giving the whole footprint. Even the very bottom part of thumb that normally don't touch the sensor.

Now it's pretty much like OnePlus6 experience with FPS with the exception that when the finger is super dry need to press slightly harder and it will register it.

If it matters i have screen film applied on screen. Not tempered glass.

Also with March 2023 update i haven't had a single fail yet with fingerprint detection.

Initially when received the phone i had October 2022 software and i didn't want to update. Then i exactly remember that it would stop working normally after a day or so. Like it forgot some areas of finger or expected very precise location.

I did buy phone in february and it could be that earlier batches had different FPS hardware revision. Smaller resolution/memory ... ?

I played around with FPS trying to get it to fail and when pressing too gently it fails so i would conclude the right pressure is quite important. Didn't find any difference in total darkness vs well lit room.
[Google Pixel 7] rekids:
It is a fairly well know thing after Google moved away from the ultrasonic finger print scanners last used on the Pixel 5s, it has not worked well for many people. If you did the research prior you would have seen this has been issue ever since. Easy solution is don't use it and go back to the old style of a pin or pattern.

Can't comment on the face recognition portion, since I haven't done any research on it, nor do I want to, since I don't have a desire to use it, but I am sure other here have extensive experience and knowledge about it. Just have to do the research before trying it if you want to know what may or may not come of it before trying.
[Google Pixel 7] TheMystic:
Even easier is to not use any protection at all. 🤣

Both are impractical suggestions.

Having been spoiled by Face Unlock, there is no going back for me. Fingerprint is used mostly in dark environments where Face Unlock struggles.
[Google Pixel 7] richb518:
and the darkness is where my fingerprint on Pixel 7 fails 100% of the time.

Pin is difficult while in motion. Pattern for me is easiest.

To OP, I wash my hands religiously. I won't touch a door knob and then touch my face, so washing alone is not the solution. I imagine it has to do with screen protectors installed since everyone uses different ones that have varying thicknesses and see-through visibility.
[Google Pixel 7] t-ryder:
I wonder what kind of special fingerprint sensor the Pixel 6 and 7 have then. My last few devices (Realme & OnePlus) with in-display fpr ... well you could have slapped a $2 or a $50 tgsp on it, and it did not matter in any way. They worked just like a charm. I had a Pixel 6 (yeah, f* that pos) and now a Pixel 7 (I really like it) and both fpr are the worst mess.
[Google Pixel 7] bobby janow:
You gotta figure out what is wrong. Not too many responses here because most are not having those issues any longer. Originally, yes for sure. But lately it's been working a good 90+ % of the time. Never can get an unlock after swimming though until I moisturize but that's excusable. Get rid of the silly screen protector which is useless unless you are in the sand/gravel business which I see you are not. (nice walls) If it still doesn't work perhaps an RMA would be in order. I've seen that happen and the replacement is way better. But you shouldn't live with a flawed device that is otherwise very good.
[Google Pixel 7] manjaroid:
All good points. I don't have opinions about which screen protector works best since my Pixel 7 sensor is a dud without one. If my 7 is worse than 6 then simple logic suggests there's a defect.

I bought a used Pixel 5 a few months ago as a backup, plus it helped verify my P7 problem isn't my fingers. My wife called the P5 "cute" so now she has it. I've never gone through Google's replacement process before but it should be a breeze compared to getting the P5 back.

One of the issues seems to be Tensor/Exynos versus Snapdragon. Apparently, the former can't use the latter's ultrasonic sensor tech without infringing on patents. But I think the overwhelming problem boils down to tolerances and inconsistencies in the manufacturing process, especially in the past couple years, and whether our Pixels were assembled during first shift Monday morning, hump day, payday...
[Google Pixel 7] bobby janow:
@manjaroid lol you have no idea what it took to get my wife to trade in her p5. The p7 cost $100 after so she went for it. Of the rumors of the p8 at 5.8 are true then Black Friday is looking really good. As for your device it does sound like a lemon. Try to get an rma of you can.

upon connecting the cable to the device (in a fastboot mode) the Unlock tool does NOT see it as being attached eventhough the bootloader drivers are there and shows that device is connected. when i type "fastboot devices" my device shows up as well

[Xiaomi Mi Pad Questions & Answers] NOSS8:
Have you enabled USB debugging?

Are you using a usb 2 port?

Is the Mi pad usb port 2 or 3?

The Mi Unlock folder must be at the root of the hard drive.

Try running Mi Unlock as administrator.

You can install a stock Global or other rom but without locking the bootloader and rooting to have a certified play store.
