[Sony Xperia 5 IV] WalterCool:
Yay! Please let us know how it works!

I'm still waiting for the CQ72
[Sony Xperia 5 IV] opticron:
Still not available on my CQ62 :/
[Sony Xperia 5 IV] piskr:
In the morning I received update Android 13 No 64.1.A.0.857 on my XQ-CQ54. So far, I can tell that there is no major visual upgrade, but my phone feels snappier and smoother. Screens and fonts are slightly more polished, deeper improvements might be found later with use, if any. Anyway, I'm satisfied with the existing configuration.
[Sony Xperia 5 IV] viper.:
As said wifi is fixed that was major issue for me at least, wifi number icon is removed and there are some minor ui changes . Thats all so far.

My compass sensor is acting wierd...wont calibrate at all.

Try to restart , re insert sim card (wierd but heard that helps sometimes)
[Sony Xperia 5 IV] piskr:
I don't think that this phone has a compass at all. When I install the app, it doesn't move if I move the phone, it's always still. But magnetic field value changes, though. Really weird.
[Sony Xperia 5 IV] viper.:
I dont know i thought all phones have "compass" because of magnetic field sensor.

Open google maps tap on your location few times and press calibrate tell me if anything happens.

I ve noticed also it doesnt count steps ,tested one app which had that" step sensor"
[Sony Xperia 5 IV] piskr:
Now I see. I've changed the compass app and the position is starting to move. But every time I open it, I must calibrate the compass again. It even shows me that the calibration is needed. If I skip it, the compass is totally disoriented.
[Sony Xperia 5 IV] jackxperiap:
Yes i too received a week before the same android 13 for my xperia XQ-CQ54 (UK) ..

In android 12 i had two issues

1. system ui stopping msg comes very rare

2. the default wallpaper i set from the sony , will be changed automatically sometimes to another one

and these two issues didnt come back in android 13 as of now and android 13 has no major improvements but what i feel is

1. battery with wifi is good compared to android 12 (i always charge to 80 and i get one day power)

2. super smooth without 120hts

3. bit more improved animations that looks cool.

overall i am fully satisfied
[Sony Xperia 5 IV] sisqoboy:
Hi all,

I have mine in the UK from GiffGaff (unlocked device) and will no OTA since android 12 64.0.h.9.35

Can I manually download an android 13 system update and if yes which one shouldn't have a problem with mine (xq-cq54) and how can I do that?

?

So as of today, 12/14/22, when I open the play store page for pixel live wallpapers, it's now showing up as "unsupported by your device". .

I'm 100% stock, no MAGISK, no root, nothing. Unlocked us pixel 4a, Android 13. Did the most recent update about a week ago, (version 2.0), and now I'm met with this...

Anyone else? Anybody have any ideas??

[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] Maheshmahe:
i don't understand these current flow, voltages, etc... but i am sure it's not possible to charging battery in 3min the values are higher. is this ok ?.

just worried about my battery.

*Custom rom : { Havoc-os v4.19 }.

*Advanced charging controller : { magisk module }>

....... don't know why ?. but. if i use this module charging stops at 70%. and if i remove it will charging 100%. and after 50% the W goes down like 2.0 or 0.1 like that. and time also increase after 50% to 60%.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] _raydroid:
ACC works by stopping charging at 75% by default to prevent battery wear. If you do not like how ACC stops charging at 75% by default, you can either adjust the charge level to 80 or 85%. Or you can disable and deactivate ACC.

@amn1987 might have better ACC settings for our 3s.

Your "3 minutes until full" might be due to both using a fast charger and the battery wear of your 3s.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] amn1987:
I am not using ACC as usually after sometime I experience some issue or the other. The GUI frontends are especially buggy and I am not a fan of using commands to tweak stuff. I am using Termux commands in Tasker to automate this. Best thing with the upgrade to 4.9 kernel was the ability to limit the maximum battery charging voltage which is the one of the best ways to prolong battery longevity. Thankfully even in A12 and A13 ROMs it continues to work. Some charging switch or the other should enable limiting voltage in ACC I think.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] Maheshmahe:
How to do that ?. ( by commands ? ). i want to limit it at 95%.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s Questions & Answers] amn1987:
Root is necessary of course and use only ROMs based on kernel version 4.9.

In any proper file manager like Solid Explorer or Mixplorer etc. simply navigate to sys/class/power_supply/battery/voltage_max which is located in the root partition and open it as a text file after changing the file permissions to rw-rw-rw from the default read-only.

By default the max. charging voltage is set at 4.4V. It’s in milli Volts. So 4400. 4.05V corresponds to 75% battery charge. 4.15V to ~85% and 4.3V ~95%. I wouldn’t recommend going above 4.2V (which corresponds to 90%) as the battery will be at a constantly high voltage (as battery percentage won’t ever decline as long as it’s plugged in) all the time otherwise. Ideal range is 30-80%(15-90% in newer models). If the device will be used plugged in a lot shoot for 60% (3.95V).

su

echo 4300 > /sys/class/power_supply/battery/voltage_max

I kept the battery at around 80% for the first 3 years when it was used as a primary device and afterwards at 60% as it's plugged in most of the time. Probably that's why battery health is still above 80%, 6 years later. Still lasts almost 10 hours during offline video playback (indoors).

P.S. The voltage under voltage_max resets at every boot. That's where Tasker or Macrodroid or even a script comes in handy.

[Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers] bubleman_2:
I have rooted my phone and I wanna overclock my gpu, but I don't know what app to use. I also wanna oc my CPU, if you know how, please tell me
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
As a phone doesn't have active cooling, this is generally unwise, as you'll rarely get significant performance gain while dealing with increased heat, which can be damaging. Custom kernels generally allow fine grained CPU and sometimes GPU control, but it's typically the opposite of overclocking - developers try to use the lowest voltages possible on the smallest cores while still maintaining decent performance, to reduce power consumption and extend battery life.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers] bubleman_2:
Yes, but I just want to maximize performance, I have two phones, and I want to overclock this one, so it's faster. I will take care of cooling. I don't care much about battery life, since it's not my daily driver. So what app should I use ?
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
You can't just use an app. You have to use a custom kernel, and the app used to control kernel parameters depends on the kernel.

"Stock" kernels are not modifiable via app.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers] bubleman_2:
Do you know a kernel that is overclocked? I tried Ryzen kernel and I still can't overclock it.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
I am not familiar with Redmi devices, so no. I would suggest looking through the various custom kernels here, and if the description of the kernel doesn't answer your question, ask in the threads. However, pursuant to Forum Rule #5, please don't post your questions more than once.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers] bubleman_2:
So what kernel and app should I use to oc it?

[Realme C12 Guides, News, & Discussion] HemanthJabalpuri:
- Why downgrade?

If you found that UI 2.0 is performing poor than UI 1.0 then it is better to downgrade for long run

- Is it safe to use UI 1.0?

Yes and No, if you use carefully then UI 1.0 is safe.

Since UI 2.0 has 5th July 2022 Security(for C.13) patch comapred to 5th June 2021 (A.95) in UI 1.0, so more security is provided.

- Can able to update to UI 2.0 after downgrade?

Yes, we can get update to UI 2.0.

Rollback package is A.83, so you get A.95 update first.

When we are in A.95, we will get C.05 (UI 2.0) update.

After updating to C.05, we will get C.13 update which is the last update

Steps:

Make sure that you are in C.13 update, since I only tested this in C.13.

Download Rollback package from Realme Community post. This guide is extended version of that guide.

Rollback package is 3.10 GiB in size and it is resumable, so not a issue if you have less Internet. You can stop and resume in Download Manager(like 1DM) whenever you have Internet. Direct Download link is here

SHA256 sum of Rollback package RMX2189_11_OTA_0830_all_nii0ZtX4H67e.ozip is 3a2a5f0fb40621271240d3c3b31350916560616337fe58304af4056c8147672f

Put the downloaded package in Micro SD Card, since Internal Storage is wiped after flashing, so Rollback package will be deleted if you put in Internal Storage.

Backup your data in apps and Internal Storage to Micro SD Card or other places, since all of these are wiped in process

Charge the device upto 60% to be on safe side

Power OFF the device and hold Volume Down + Power keys together to boot to Recovery Mode

Choose Language English

Select Install from Storage -> From SD card -> RMX2189_11_OTA_0830_all_nii0ZtX4H67e.ozip

It will show a alert window to proceed or not. Choose OK.

Now, it will show a progress screen. Wait for upto 10 minutes

At the end of flashing it will show, Wiping, please wait and a prompt window showing Installation Successful will appear, Choose OK.

Goto Wipe data -> Format data. Enter verification code given there. An alert window telling, All user data will be reset will appear. Choose Format.

A popup window showing Wiped successfully will appear. Tap on OK. It will Reboot automatically.

Wait upto 2 minutes and setup your Realme UI 1.0 A.83.

You may get NVRAM Warning Err: 0x10 in WiFi, it is not a issue. You can ignore it.

Enjoy!

[Realme C12 Guides, News, & Discussion] HemanthJabalpuri:
I think so. Actually I am a Realme UI 1.0 user with locked bootloader. So can't suggest any of this things since I didn't used them much.
[Realme C12 Guides, News, & Discussion] RehanRashid:
Edit: Well I won't recommend it to anyone. I think the Realme UI 1 interface is the best so don't bother flashing custom rom.

I got the nvram warning = 0x10 in wifi and it is very annoying can anyone tell me.how can i fix it without rooting and if it requires rooting how to do it in proper way
[Realme C12 Guides, News, & Discussion] HemanthJabalpuri:
it's is not a issue, but as you said it may be annoying. Instead unlocking bootloader rooting and stuff to remove that specific thing, I suggest you to keep your device like that.

If you really want to remove, you have 2 options

- restore nvdata partition (only if you have taken backup in UI1)

- unlock bootloader, root and flash the zip (available here) as Magisk module and you can now remove root and relock bootloader

Thanks
[Realme C12 Guides, News, & Discussion] yuvraj123f:
Sir please reply and give me instruction to unlock bootloader and root by magisk and after that how can i unroot and relock bootloader

Does it work for Fold 4. Want to change CSC from Korean Region to INU (India). Please guide
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] srikanth.addala:
Sorry, haven't tried it on Fold 4. Logically it shud work, I guess. There is no harm in connecting n checking what CSCs does ur model supports using the tool IMO.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] jsbutran:
Tried out but it does not work. It shows only the Korean csc. Even that seems to be not changing
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] srikanth.addala:
Oh k. I think the tool works, else u wudnt b seeing the CSC which ur phone supports.

I have checked sources in the web as well on this and looks like Fold 3 or 4 with Korean CSC supports only CSC from Korea.

I guess u can still force a CSC on to it replacing the Korean one but thats too risky as u will b missing OTA updates and im not aure wat all things it will mess up.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] BlueTR:
Awesome! It works and it doesn't wipe the device. I just switched from G975U VZW to CCT without any issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] srikanth.addala:
Happy to hear that. BTW I also got samsung pay/wallet to work as well by installing its apk file today after changing the system language to a local one specific to the changed CSC i.e., English (India) for INU CSC in my case.

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] thomste:
Hello, can somebody please briefly summerise the options for switching the CSC/Firmware?

I read other threads and this one and now am confused which method actually would work for me.

My situation: i have a Samsung A52s 5G purchased from Deutsche Telekom in Germany, sold separately, not bundled with a contract.

And i am having a contract with a different carrier on a different network, but a german SIM card.

My phone is configured all english, and i need to keep that.

Because of assumed network optimisations and the problem of delayed updates of "branded" phones, i would like to convert the phone from the current CSC of DTM to the DBT using fimrware (A528BXXS1DVL2/A528BOXM1DVK5/A528BXXU1DVK5/A528BXXS1DVL2), which i hope would link me to updates directly provided by Samsung.

I found "https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-how-to-update-to-latest-official-firmware-all-samsung-device.2697238/" and "https://xdaforums.com/t/changing-cs...-multi-csc-codes.4436853/page-5#post-87485577 ", but i am not sure whther the methods described there only apply for UPDATING (within the same CSC) the phone with non-OTA methods, or whether that also covers SWITCHING the CSC?

In the end i have two questions:

1) So far i believed that "simply" putting an official stock Samsung firmware (multi CSC in my case, containing the DBT, but apparently NOT containing the DTM) would bring me there.

But then i read that this might not be suffficient. Instead i also would have to switch the CSC in my Phone's config, which apparently would require purchasing a license for a Samkey unlock code.

Because otherwise i would not receive any OTA updates once i switched just the firmware.

Is that actually true?

I would prefer not to have to buy a Samkey...

And to make the confusion even bigger: now i read, SamFw Tool would also be an option?

But: is that trustworthy? And: from posts of some of you: this might even obsolete to switch the firmware, do i understand that right?

2) If switching firmware still is required: would using Odin/Heimdall be the only option to switch the firmware, or would adb sideloading do the same job as well? I am asking because i don't have access to a windows machine.

Would be so great if someone of you could untangle my confusion a bit, thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] srikanth.addala:
Did not automatically receive the OTA updates with the recent DVL9 update. However, tried a work around to change the CSC back to EUX via the same tool (which is a 2 min task) to check if I can get OTA again.

And yes it worked! immediately after changing the OTA to its home CSC, was able to see OTA in the updates section of the phone. So, I updated the phone to the latest version (DVL9) and then changed the CSC back to INU after the update ;). All is well and quick! ;).
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] burc ugur:
very nice i changed sfr to tur but netflix and always on display app not shown google play so unsupported why idk
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] srikanth.addala:
May be TUR csc has restricted options/features. In my example after I changed to INU csc (India one) all the India related options got automatically activated like call recording, spam filter, samsung pay using cards etc etc. which weren't available with the EUX csc before the change.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] sawdoctor:
Any potential issues using INU csc in the UK? I use Samsung pay already but native call recoding would be really useful for me
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] burc ugur:
edit: excuse me you have play protect certificate? i changed csc samfw topl but now i don't have play protect certificate. Therefore not shown Netflix.

you have this? if you have how can i fix certificate.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] sawdoctor:
Might be worth clearing cache and data from Google play services see if that helps. Having the same device with 2 different cscs might have confused Google

Edit

Any reason your Google play store is out of date or is it connected to your original issue

Hello,

my mother has been using SGP321 since 2014.

The device has a SIM card to connect to internet.

The PIN code is stored somewhere in the memory of the tablet and is already forgotten by us.

Is there a tool/app that could display the PIN code of the SIM card?

Please help, my mother (and I) would be grateful :)

We need to transfer the SIM card to another tablet (also SGP321 - brand new, old stock) because the old one is failing

(problems with charging battery - replacing battery and charging port did not help).

Involving the GSM operator to send a new SIM card may take many days where I live, especially now before Christmas

I use xiaomis music app to listen to music, recent it's been happening the following constantly, I use earphones and the app stops the song on it's own or starts forwarding songs without me doing anything, while I'm using the phone, I use the regular social apps etc like Instagram messenger and so forth, should I just do a factory reset and that's it? Is it the earphones? I used headphones and it does the same, one time I wasnt using either earphones or headphones and this happened too.
