Has anyone achieved any progress with this tablet? Well, I fell for the scam and now I'm here racking my brain but I couldn't even back up the tablet because I can't root it! I couldn't even physically see the right processor because it has a heatsink.

Could you share stock rom of this device?
[Realme 8i / Narzo 50] baconkingroblox:
I've decided to use the universal Android debloater to remove some bloatware. The phone had 2 issues: quick settings panel didn't scale properly on landscape mode, search feature in settings and other apps shows a text box which covers most of the screen. I thought rebooting will fix this issue but I was wrong. My phone bootlooped and rebooted to recovery mode and showed a "kindly reminder": "system error, after select language, please select Online update(keep data) to reovery systsm, thanks!", so I selected online update and it didn't detect any updates (I'm on the latest version of Realme UI 2.0). It's my main phone and I don't want to lose all of my data!

I flashed the stock firmware (A32 Global for the Realme 8i) using the unbrick guide, I followed all the steps, installed all the drivers and stuff, and the phone booted, but it said "No network coverage". So i checked the IMEI using the *#06# code and it didn't show. So I checked device info and turns out the imei and baseband is unknown. I've tried formatting data again, flashing the A44 Global firmware (via stock recovery, SP flash tool), SP flash tool didn't want to flash the firmware, not even the A32 firmware. I've used the unbrick guide and reinstalled everything (I switched to a different windows version because my laptop was slow) and it gave me an error 0xc0010001, no hints. I've set the baud rate to 921600, still no luck. I tried using some IMEI tools but they didn't detect my phone in brom mode (I also used the brom.bat mentioned in the unbrick guide above). I want my phone to be fully usable. All help, advice and support will be appreciated.

If you're experiencing the same issue, flash this firmware via SP flash tool without oplusreserve2 and cdt_engineering, you can flash the firmware without userdata to flash the firmware without losing your data. The firmware is global (EUEX).

Hello,

There is a way to add more than 15 favorite contacts ?

It is a great feature but is limited to 15 contacts.

Many Thanks
[Touch HD General] Traasje:
This would be great if it's possible.
[Touch HD General] Vinski-:
I have another question. How can i change the order of the favorite contacts?
[Touch HD General] Eboz:
Yeah, would also like to have more than 15 favorites. But maybe they made the limit because it would be too laggy otherwise ? Don't know really :)
[Touch HD General] xponline:
Order of the contacts on people tab

I am also interested in changing the order of the contacts on my people tab. I have searched the site and this is the only reference found. Any update to this out there?

Thanks.
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
As far as I'm aware your favourite contacts appear alphabetically and this order cannot be changed.

If I am wrong, I apologize. But to be honest I don't see a need for this anyway as the time taken to scroll to any of your favourite is Minuscule anyway
[Touch HD General] xponline:
thanks for reply. Just wanted to have the wife at the top of the pile - keeps her happy:)

AAAJessica Alba

:D:D
[Touch HD General] Ducati1979cc:
I have numbered the beginning of the name of my favorite contacts from 01 to 15. This way you can reorder them in the TouchFlo 3D tab.
[Touch HD General] g2tl:
This trick works for the all programs tab, but not sure for the people tab

Since--if--the order is alphabetical, try putting a space before the name, e.g. " Jessica Alba" instead of "Jessica Alba."
[Touch HD General] Swarvey:
Any news or updates on this one?

Hi guys, anyone out there had any luck with adding more favourite contacts? Any knowledge to share about the people tab that might help us out?

I'm running Sense 2.5 from Leo 2.02, seems pretty quick on my own WM 6.5 28014 build, but would absolutely LOVE to have more than the standard allowance for favourite contacts

P.S In all the Sense 2.5 versions i've used I've been able to manually rearrange my favourite contacts - guess it's a 2.5 thing, but it is doable.
[Touch HD General] w0nz3r:
UP!

Any news for add more then 15 favorite contacts on HD2 ?

Thanks!
[Touch HD General] perchera:
I'm also looking for that, not easy to decide which friends should be the unlucky 16th, 17th contacts

thanks
[Touch HD General] Z80-Man:
LOL :D

Absolutely not.

They simply appear in the order they were created, and when you restore them after a ROM flash (what I do often these days :p), they obviously appear in the order they were historically created in the main contacts list (still not using alphabetical order).

This is ABSOLUTE CERTAINTY, is reproduced after each flash, and bears no discussion whatosever.

If I could find where they are stored (I think I'll ask people who wrote favorite contacts backup programs - though I'm a bit worried, as Zenyee's Back FavPeople Up seems to save and restore actually NOTHING ! :D), then maybe I should be able to write some utility to do that...

I don't even know if they are stored in a database, an xml file... The only thing I'm sure of is they are not stored in the registry ! :p

The only way now is to delete them then restart from scratch ! :p

It does't take any time actually if you use the 4x4 mod, as you even don't have to scroll. ;)

But they're still messy anyway, making them not straightforward to click on.

I initially created them sorting professional and personal favorites... But, well, this nice order doesn't survive a ROM flash ! :p

You must just be aware of the fact people just like their contacts to be sorted the way they want. In other words, they think THEY are the boss, not their phone ! :D LOL :p

Anyway, it's not forbidden to search for a way to change that, ask for help, and hopefully, find a solution. ;)

I actually found this thread because I was precisely looking for that. ;)

But it has no effect at all for the reason I explained before. ;)

Same punishment ! :D
[Touch HD General] Z80-Man:
OK, now I've managed to have Zenyee Back FavPeople Up actually saving something... :p

There is a very easy and simple way to sort the favorites using this tool.

Just edit the produced HTCcontact-backup.xml file, change the positions between the <FavoriteOrder> and </FavoriteOrder> tags, then restore it, and you're done ! :p

Position numbers begin at 0, so the last one should numbered 14.

I'll now try to restore a modified xml file with a contact position modified to 15... ;)

I'm also searching the registry for the key values enclosed between the tags <FavoriteContext> and </FavoriteContext> : will I be lucky ? ;)

Edit : I'm not ! :p

And trying to renumber a contact beyons the limit doesn't work either. ;)
[Touch HD General] pirecrompir:
how did you manage to do that? i have an htc diamond2/topaz with the energy rom and back favpeople up! doesn't find any favourite contacts from my people tab :-(... i don't know why. it just says: backup completed; 0 contacts saved. it's really annoying having to add favourite contacts manually after each rom update.

Thanks for any suggestions!
[Touch HD General] colossus_r:
What i do to have my Fav contacts in tact after flash....

Before flash

Backup my contacts with pim backup

Backup fav contacts with Zenyee Back FavPeople (sense 2.5 checked)

Then after flash

Restore from pimbackup

Restore from Zenyee Back FavPeople and Reset when it will ask you (Importand).

This method is allways working for me in NRG roms
[Touch HD General] Z80-Man:
Yes, it works great, but there are some limits to what it can do :

1) If you already imported your saved favorites and let them in the order they came, saving and restoring them back with most probably keep this order.

However, if you rearrange them and save them again, then they'll be restored in the previous order.

Apparently, they are always restored in the chronological order they were created in the main list - something like that.

When they are saved, it's obvioulsy in this order. Zenyee actually scans the whole contacts database from top to bottom and saves the necessary information from the ones that are marked as belonging to group "1" while he encounters them. That's how it's done. ;)

2) It will sometimes miss some contacts at restoration (and will display the warning). Don't ask me why. Maybe the ones I imported from the "Favorite People" tabs, as opposed to the ones I choosed in the main list, then use "Add to favorite" menu, since they might not have all the necessary information ? It actually looks like that.

In other words, Microsoft method seems to be more reliable than HTC method.

3) Beware if like me you're using 2 PCs, at work and at home, sharing the same Outlook information (information synchronized by ActiveSync, with new contacts added or deleted on one site, then synchronized with the HD, then synhronized again with the other PC, and not everyday, nor each time a change is made. So finally two somewhat different databases !)

Zenyee saves index numbers that refer to the current contacts database. That's the only way he actually links the saved data to the previously restored full contacts list.

If you happen to flash your ROM and restore your contacts from a different PC, restoring your favorites will then do a mess of them ! :p

So I won't be so affirmative saying it will all restore to identical each time. ;)

I could just say "it depends"... :p

Anyway, the method I explained above still relies on using Zenyee Back FavPeople Up! to restore your favorite in the first place (they'll be just in an incorrect order - or not : it depends, as I said above - with the spare icons at the end), as it's responsible for creating the registry keys. ;)

It also requires you're NOT in case #3, or it won't work either ! ;)

Then you can import your previously saved registry data (taking care to fill in unused icons data with "0", or the previously restored favorite will still show in double).

After soft resetting, your favorite will then show in the exact order you saved them, including spare icons in the middle if you had any. :)

My suggestion doesn't replace what's already existing : it just completes it, ok ? ;)
[Nothing Phone 1] Chaotick:
I updated my NP1 to NOS 1.1.7( with fix) and today to 1.5 beta. My device is not rooted with locked bootloader and still is not google certified and fails CTS. Any ideas on how to fix this?
[Nothing Phone 1] MarcoReckless:
I tried the default Universal SafetyNet Fix and it didn't work, I also tried using a custom fingerprint but it would break my fingerprint scanner, I ended up using a modded version of the fix it CTS is passing for me.
[Nothing Phone 1] Chaotick:
My device is not rooted and the bootloader is still locked. I just installed NOS 1.5 beta by downloading the update zip for EEA and installing it with *#*#682#*#* etc. I tried to certify my device with google and see if anything can be done....
[Nothing Phone 1] MarcoReckless:
I'm afraid you can't do anything while locked, we were warned that bank apps would break.
[Nothing Phone 1] Exodusnick:
it is normal for SafetyNet to fail in beta

in the mail from nothing it also says that netflix and googel pay / wallet does not work.

as soon as it is official A13 everything works again
[Nothing Phone 1] dreas74:
Thanks, the modded version works very well.
[Android Head-Units] DankFred:
Hi all,

I'm having an issue with my Joying 8.8" Android Unit. The unit supports Android Auto using the pre-installed "CarLink 2.0" app.

I usually use Wireless Android Auto and it works just fine. However, the head unit does not have any buttons, neither does the steering wheel (Audi TT mk1). To solve this, I have added a USB volume dial (Digispark ATtiny85 paired with a rotary encoder) which I have used on another car running a eonon unit with ZLink where it works very well.

The problem is that, everytime I connect the volume knob to this unit's usb, CarLink seems to think it is a mobile phone, so it interrupts my wireless android auto session and attempts to connect to the usb volume dial. When this happens, the volume dial stops working. This only happens when the CarLink app is running.

Thinking this is an issue with the CarLink App, I tried to install ZLink instead, but It won't run due to "channel error". Do I have to install it as a system app?

Another possible solution: Is there a way to disable USB for CarLink?

Thank You
[Android Head-Units] marchnz:
What did the reseller suggest when contacted for support? What else has been tried?
[Android Head-Units] DankFred:
I contacted Joying with no answer yet (It's the weekend, they might reply next week).

I tried using different USB ports, USB hubs, USB adapters, changing available configuration.

Interestingly enough, using USB A -> USB C -> USB A adapters made the knob continue working even after CarLink tries to connect to it, but still interrupts an ongoing Android Auto session.
[Android Head-Units] DankFred:
I ended up figuring out the problem. Turns out that certain USB class/subclass identifiers are not properly handled by CarLink. Making the microcontroller report a different combination of usb class/subclass did the trick.
[Android Head-Units] n9yty:
Interesting problem. I just installed a 9" Joying radio into my 2019 Honda Civic Hatchback EX, and I forgot I had an iPod plugged into the USB in the middle storage area. I could not get Wireless CarPlay to work reliably (if at all).

I know the radio does not talk to an iPod, so I moved all the music to an SSD drive on USB3 in the glove box. However, if the drive is connected, Wireless CarPlay will not connect unless I disable and re-enable Bluetooth and reconnect manually, but then it disconnects the USB hard drive.

I don't have the option of changing VID/PID values. I am waiting to hear back from Joying, but thought I would add this to the thread as it is somewhat related behavior with CarLink 2.0.
[Android Head-Units] C5 FRC:
Hey Fred, I know this thread is a little old but wanted to ask you for some help. I sent you a message. I'm having the same problems with my Joying 8.8 head unit and what you said makes sense - however I don't have the tools to reclass my volume dial. Could you help me out?

[General Questions and Answers] Feenix0:
I've recently set up a Canon ImageClass MF3010 on my home network, using an Ethernet-to-USB print server to connect it to my router. I can print to it from my PC (still haven't figured out how to scan back to my PC). I've installed the Canon print service on my phone (OP 7T). There's an option to search for a printer via IP address in the print service, but the service fails to find the printer there. How do I make it visible? The print server is an IOGear GPSU21. Router is an Xfinity CGM4140COM. Thank you in advance!

Error

I'd really like to use your application, but I keep getting this error. I have the latest NET CF and I am connected to the internet.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mobilecriss:
Hello, AthenaLod!

Several other people have had problems like that and it seems there are other applications that have this problem as well.

I've been looking into it, but with no results so far. When I find something out I'll surely let you know.

I seems to me like a corrupt installation of .Net CF 3.5; maybe you can try to reinstall it and let us know whether this solves the problem or not. The error you are getting is when the application is trying to set a textbox as readonly. shadowmike, for instance, has a similar problem because of the instantiation of a splitter control. These are pretty common operations and I don't know why they would throw any exceptions.

I've found some threads posted by several guys on msdn.com, but there are no answers yet
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] respider:
nice app, thanks for that!

Anyone know anything about data traffic?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mobilecriss:
The data traffic is very close to the size of the text you enter to be translated and to the translated text.

For example, if you translate the text:

Welcome to xda-developers.com
This site is about certain PDA-phones, made by a firm called HTC in Taiwan.
Their makers named them 'Wallaby', 'Himalaya', 'Blue Angel', 'Wizard' and
'TyTN', but almost nobody knows them by those names. The mobile provider
O2 sells them under the brand-name 'XDA', and that's what we had in our
hands first. They're also known as Qtek, MDA, SX-56, Hermes and many,
many other names.

from English to French, you will make an upload of about 0.4 kB and a download of about 0.5 kB.

This is an approximation, since I'm at work right now and I don't have the actual sources.

If people find it useful, maybe I can include a feature to show the size of the data which is sent/received, but I don't think there's anything to worry about, because in order to make some serious traffic with it you have to be Shakespeare; I seriously don't think there's anyone who will write a 1MB text on the mobile phone. :p
[OnePlus 9] Malicious_CT:
Hello all,

I rooted & unlocked my TMO OP9 using magisk and flashed a stock image.

I'm now trying to install a A13 mod from Pixel Experience. I patched the boot image after running the payload dumper tool. Now I have the patched boot image from magisk copied to my PC. I"m not sure what commands to run now once I reboot into fastboot. Maybe I'm not in the right fastboot (like fastbootd or something)

PS C:\Users\cterr\OneDrive\Desktop\OnePlus9-December2022> adb devices -l

List of devices attached

6bf0a351 device product:OnePlus9 model:LE2117 device:OnePlus9

PS C:\Users\cterr\OneDrive\Desktop\OnePlus9-December2022> adb reboot fastboot

<reboots>

<select fastboot from menu, reboots>

PS C:\Users\cterr\OneDrive\Desktop\OnePlus9-December2022> .\fastboot.exe flash boot .\magisk_patched-25200_aAy2x.img

< waiting for any device >

This fails as fastboot doesn't see my phone. I'm not even sure if I'm supposed to flash to <boot> or recovery.

I remember running this command below for disable-verity in the past but it fails as well. Probably due to a typo. If anyone can confirm that would be great. Do I use fastboot to flash to the boot? Like #fastboot flash boot <magisk_image>. I'm nervous that once I get the fastboot to flash i'll flash it to the wrong place.

PS C:\Users\cterr\OneDrive\Desktop\OnePlus9-December2022> fastboot flash vbmeta --disable-verity --disable-verification vbmeta.img

C:\Android\fastboot.exe: unknown option -- disable-verity

Thanks!
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] johnnobts:
OK, so not happy. After failing to flash the new MIUI 14, then could not go back to the original 13, could not flash via fastboot at all, kept failing. Modified the flash_all.bat thinking that would fix the phone (was stuck with red fastboot logo on phone perpetually), only to find the phone screen now appears to stay completely off. PC no longer recognizes the phone when trying to enter fastboot mode (tried all the hold volume and power combinations). Only sign of life for the phone is holding down the power and volume + for maybe 40 second there's a brief green flicker. All this said, also can't get the PC to recognize it in EDL mode. This may in part be a lack of a USB 2.0 port, gonna try and get a hub to test it. BUt otherwise, really hard bricked Mix Fold 2 here, gents. This thing doeesn't have easily accessible touch points. And those aren't indicated online anyway. Wondering if a deep flash cable might be worth an $10 investment? Anybody have any suggestions? If I can get it in EDL mode I'll pay somebody to restore it but as it stands, its a $1500 brick.

Good news is my Fold 4 is my daily driver and even have a Flip 4 for fun. Still...
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] NOSS8:
I sent you a P.M.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] okanaltan:
Sorry about that. I was the same situation two days ago. Please use the "fastboot enhance" program and get into the "fastbootD" mode via this program. Then you will see your phone partitions and logical parts. Erase and resize each part as 1000 bytes. But do not touch the phone's "... _b" parts. Then switch again from fastbootd to fastboot mode into the program but never reboot the device or unplug the cable. Leave the program open background. And then download the Mi flash tool (vers. 2021.2.26.0) and do not use any other or newer version. Into the Mi flash configuration, delete checkpoint writings and leave it blank. Then tick "Erase all" box. After that, download this: https://hugeota.d.miui.com/V14.0.22...2.0000.00_13.0_cn_chinatelecom_f79146cd66.tgz

Flash the image via mi flash program. That s it.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] johnnobts:
so again, i only have all black screen, can't tell when or if its even on. any button combinations when plugging phone into usb cable? screen doesn't even give me fastboot or anything....
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] okanaltan:
Do you see the blank screen on only front screen or both screens are blank?
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] johnnobts:
Both sadly
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] okanaltan:
Although there is no image, try to enter fastboot mode with the cable plugged in. In the meantime, keep the "fastboot enhance" program open. Because the program is showing the connections moment by moment. In case of you see any port connection, you can immediately start the recovery.
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] johnnobts:
Well appreciate the instructions but can't seem to find any button combo to get into fb mode. I'll try the deep flash cable I bought later but really not looking good.
