The created boot image is larger than the maximum size. You can solve it by doing a few things on BoardConfig.mk. For example, lifting things. Like uninstalling the TWRP app. Or different things. Flags starting with TW_EXCLUDE ensure this.

Examples;

Remove nano: TW_EXCLUDE_NANO := true

Remove TWRP app: TW_EXCLUDE_TWRPAPP := true

Remove Python: TW_EXCLUDE_PYTHON := true

Remove multi language: TW_EXTRA_LANGUAGES := false . If you are going to use this flag, do not forget to set the default language.

There are many such flags. But you should be careful when lifting things.

It seemed I had better results by removing the "out" directory and compiling it from scratch after setting those flags. Though it sounds somewhat unlikely in hindsight. Anyhow, the theme in `bootable/recovery/gui/theme/` and the corresponding flag `TW_THEME` also seems to have quite some influence on the final .img size.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] EPa:
Hello,

does anybody have hands free on a TCL 55P735 TV succesfully activated? I recently bought it and everything works, except that.

Voice recognition and google assistant work if I press the dedicated button on the 2nd remote. But it's not working hands free as advertised on the box and online.

I have switched on the on TV mic (the hardware button at the bottom center), the TV reports the mic's state correctly (TV microphone is on) and the 4 leds go white, then turn off.

Settings: google account ok, google assistant voice control on, quick start activated, screenless servive activated.

But, hands free voice recognition...

Anyone else has this problem?

Thanks

[Fairphone 3 / 3+] D00nad:
Hi,

I recently bought a fairphone off ebay. It was described as broken however I managed to get it working again by cleaning and slightly scratching the screen connector contacts. Sadly however although now it appears to be working perfectly it is linked to a previous owner’s google account which I don’t have the password to and so I can’t get past the factory reset protection which asks for the google account login. I’ve tried a system factory reset as described here but it doesn’t remove the FRP: Factory reset (erase all data) – Support (fairphone.com) 2

I’ve contacted the ebay seller but they say the person they bought it from reported they had removed the account link to the phone and have no way of contacting them.

Does anyone know a way around this? I am not that tech savvy but I’m up for learning!

Thanks in advance.

I find myself in a situation where I receive an incoming call that I am neither willing to accept nor decline. In such instances, I attempt to turn off the display by pressing the power button. However, the display reactivates almost instantly. Other phone models allow the user to turn off the display by pressing the power button, and the display remains off until the user presses the power button again

On a modRC30 G1, I've had no problems with "adb push", and "adb pull" works OK for smaller files (like Browser/Bugreport.apk). But when I try to pull a larger file (like Browser.apk) the local file is created but it does not appear that any data is transferred -- eventually I abort the process. Shell is fine, of course.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite Questions & Answers] ze7zez:
If you mean VoLTE, then yes, Galaxy S10 Lite includes this support. The open question, however, is whether your sim's carrier will allow the use of VoLTE on this phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite Questions & Answers] borisSweden:
Not VoLTE, its the media format the voice is broadcasted. VoLTE in many phones uses the old AMRWB like 3G and GSM voice calls. The bitrate sucks and people dont use their tech to thefullest because of BS patent fees. VoLTE only guarantees data during calls, not quality.

Would be nice with a screenshot. If it exist then porting it to other Snapdragon phones be possible
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite Questions & Answers] ze7zez:
For the sake of clarity what this discussion is about:

VoiceAge - Enhanced Voice Services (EVS) codec

he new codec for Enhanced Voice Services (EVS), successor of the current mobile HD voice codec AMR-WB, was standardized by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project

voiceage.com

Enhanced Voice Services - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite Questions & Answers] borisSweden:
Yes but was a simple question, do you have the phone can you check if the transcoder exists?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite Questions & Answers] ze7zez:
The name of the codec may not matter at all, because "The GSMA has nominated EVS as the mandatory audio codec for superwideband transmissions via VoLTE (please also see "Permanent Reference Dokument IR.92 - IMS Profile for Voice and SMS")."
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite Questions & Answers] borisSweden:
It's still not used, even if I force it though efs modding, I still don't get clear calling. So I zeroed in on the lack of transcoder module in the OS. Why I picked Samsung was because they get special treatment from Qualcomm so Exynos doesn't ge tused in the USA.

To get EVS, OEMs pay patent fee and many don't do that so porting it is. Here is my phone, asypu can see,no software transcoder for EVS.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite Questions & Answers] ze7zez:
I understand your dissatisfaction about the lack of EVS FB for your device. IPhone has had it for a long time. For the record, the EVS support standards used are highly variable for network operators.

EVS is available in four variants:

Narrowband (NB) - frequency response 300Hz - 3.4kHz. The quality of classic telephony, corresponding to the AMR-NB codec,

Wideband (WB) - frequency response of 50Hz - 7kHz. Quality corresponding to the AMR-WB codec, or classic HD Voice,

Super-wideband (SWB) - frequency response of 50Hz - 16kHz,

Fullband (FB) - frequency response of 20Hz - 20kHz. Full bandwidth of human audible frequencies.

Probably every 5G smartphone should support EVS FB, provided that the network operator implements it for a specific device model.

As of today, in my country no operator has implemented EVS FB for android phones. They only support EVS SWB.

Source
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite Questions & Answers] borisSweden:
Its a weird standard, even 23bit AMR-WB is hard to come by.

My OnePlus 7T calling iPhone XS and 11-14 does get EVS after the hack according to NSG.

But calling Iphone 8, 7, 6S gives me AMR-WB on the lower levels.

VoLTE is nearly snakeoil and I dont want to pay for 5G as coverage is null and carriers increase the price of the plans. I deliberately picked the 7T secondhand as I didn't believe in the 5g hype.

Like I said before, it's free for th carrier's to implement EVS while it costs money for OEM to enable it on the handset. It's like Bluetooth codec decoders.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] martymarty004:
Hello,

sometime ago, I tried to install a custom ROM (it required a repartitioning script) on my old Samsung Galaxy A3 (2017) - SM-A320FL, but after many attempts I wasn't able to install the OS through the custom recovery (OrangeFox R11.0) so I gave up.

Now I decided to go back at it and give it another shot, but first I wanted to return to Stock ROM to see if everything was okay.

After flashing everything with Odin, the installation of Oreo fails, and so I'm stuck in the Stock Recovery.

I tried to flash the phone many times, I even tried doing Nand Erase and Re-partition by using the PIT file that was in the ROM I downloaded, but the outcome is always the same

(On the first reboot I can see the Android updating page, the installation fails, it throws me in recovery - If I reboot the phone it remains stuck on the white Samsung screen).

The stock Recovery always shows this error:

View attachment 5857029

I downloaded the firmware files using Friya 1.4.4.0, with the Model set as SM-A320FL and the CSC as ITV (unbranded).

Maybe I choose the wrong CSC, and this is why it's not working, but I'm not sure. The other country codes for my country (IT) should be the following:

Honestly, I'm not sure on how this error can still persist after a complete re-flash of the device, so I'm here asking for your help. Thanks.

2. Performed soft reset by pressing volume down and power button(still went back to boot screen).

3. pressed tried to get to recovery mode by pressing power button and volume down after the screen went blank pressed volume up and power button to try get to recovery mode(went back to boot screen).

No attempts were made to unlock bootloader or flash custom rom.
[Samsung Galaxy F41 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Battery is known to be good right? No rear cover bulging? If any doubt, replace it. A fair amount of power is needed to boot.

Otherwise...

Try to get it to go into safe mode, if that fails...

Factory reset from recovery menu. If that works the data user partition was corrupted likely by a 3rd party app or malware.

If that fails reflashing the rom is the only thing left to try. If that fails it's a hardware failure.
[Samsung Galaxy F41 Questions & Answers] cheekyrascal:
First of all thanks for the response it really means a lot :)

The response to the points mentioned:

1. The device looks healthy with no rear cover bulging.

2. I am unable to get to the recovery mode at all, any combination of button I press gets me back to the boot screen.

3. my laptop is not recognizing the device so i am not sure how to go about reflashing the rom.
[Samsung Galaxy F41 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
You're welcome. Sorry to hear of all the trouble you're having.

If you can't access recovery mode ie boot menu you have big problems. Try to do it again plugged into the PC; the newer ones need this to access recovery mode on the Android I think.

Make sure the button sequence and timing are correct. Sometimes I goof it twice in a row🤣

Try removing SD and sim cards. Does charging show on the display? Make sure it's at 70% or more.

Otherwise could it be a failure on one of the buttons? A cable may loose? I don't think a C port failure would cause this but not sure if that's always true. Unless dropped or water damaged mobos rarely fail but this is a possibility.

Maybe someone here has a better plan...

I have a Samsung s22 Ultra device, my husband and I were trying out the parental control feature.

Even after stopping supervision, it's impossible to uninstall the parental control app and remove it's restrictions from my phone. This prevents me from using Developer Options/usb debugging, uninstalling Family Link as well as many restrictions. I cannot change my google email. (It won't allow additional email or removals)

Here are some things I tried:

1.. I've already tried age verification

Already stopped the supervision on my friend's phone, completely removed from family group

Tried clearing cache and storage of all Google apps

Removed myself from the family through Play Store

Tried resetting all settings, but factory reset is disabled

Tried disabling parental control as a device admin, it is greyed out

Unable to boot into safe mode

Can't enable developer mode (so no ADB)

Security certificate section is disabled

Deleting my Google account is not at all an option, it's my primary account

Tried changing the password of my Google account, and tried to force log out and reset using the Find My Device feature. That Didn't work( it says no device registered)

Tried transferring the app(family link) to the SD card, and removing the SD card. Didn't help, it still has restrictions

unable to reset the phone through Samsung find my device and through Google find my phone( both say my phone is not registered)

on my hubby's phone it says open parental control (by going to Google In settings) and set up again to start supervision.

On his phone shows no child, on my phone shows monitoring active

Tried meddling with my birthday in my google account, at some point it asked me to verify my age through card, which I did. And the age got verified.

Tried to install beta version of family link,by signing up through Google Play Store, hopping the beta has resolved the issue, but it didn't help

Tried restarting my phone several times, but no avail

Tried hard resetting(through recovery menu), the phone won’t go into recovery, it vibrates at point where it Was supposed to go into recovery menu, and boots normally and phone turns on

My problem is my phone has become laggy and I'm not able to add Google accounts.unable to reset my phone. Please help in removing malware of an app Family Link. I know this may not be the appropriate place to ask, but I am desperate. Thanks for any help.

You can disable it with ADB. Or even uninstall if you want.

pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.apps.kids.familylink

Edit: just read u cant enable dev options weird.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] TheMystic:
First of all, why did you add yourself as a child requiring supervision?

Anyways, Family Link app is just an interface to change settings and permissions. Switching to beta version or doing other things with the app will not make any difference. The problem is with the account settings. Your Google account is still being supervised. Until this restriction is removed, you won't be able to add other accounts or factory reset the device. Ideally, once you stop supervision, these restrictions must go away.

Here's what you can try:

1. Join the family group again.

2. Ask the 'parent' to remove your account from supervision. My guess is you have stopped supervision from the child account. So try stopping it using the parent account.

Over the last couple of years or so, Google and Microsoft seem to be heavily inspired by the design language usually seen in Apple products.

I find Apple UI quite cartoonish, and more suitable for products targeted at children. Android and Windows used to be have a very polished, executive and professional looking design language, and that unfortunately seems to be changing.

Have Apple designers moved to Google and Microsoft? Or are courses in designing now being heavily inspired by what Apple designers are doing? Neither of these is good news.
