Im in that recovery, sideload mode, but dont works
[OnePlus 9] TheSayaMan:
The last version you used is outdated. You need to flash the firmware first then reboot to recovery and sideload. The current version is 9.9 Also, you need to be on latest stock firmware. If your not, then you need to go back and update to it.

Updated included Gapps

Not much activity here. This more than likely will be the last build I maintain for this device.
[OnePlus 9] zborn:
But, why?
[OnePlus 9] TheSayaMan:
Because if I'm only getting one or two downloads, it makes no sense to maintain this device. It's not easy work and I have other devices that I maintain also.
[OnePlus 9] TheSayaMan:
If you experience slow download speeds with sourceforge, click on problems downloading? then choose the direct link option, that seems to be much faster or try another mirror.
[OnePlus 9] zborn:
But... I'm one of those... That's sad, man. I'm really happy with watchdogs. I have no bidding environment at the moment, but I could prepare it again to keep on using it
[OnePlus 9] perez6991:
Is the Camera UI meant to stay stationary when changing aspect ratios? The capture button looks odd in aspect ratios other than 4:3. "Full" leaves the capture button 1/4 up the screen.

Also, sorry to see this ROM will be discontinued. Your work is much appreciated.
[OnePlus 9] TheSayaMan:
Thanks everyone. Whether you like my ROM or not, please go here to voice your opinion. Every vote counts.
[OnePlus 9] TheSayaMan:
I have my own recovery now. You can use my firmware flasher updated in the OP. If you already used the other one in the past, its fine, it will automatically overwrite with mine after flashing this ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] godmode1970:
I want to remove the camera shuter sound and some other UI sounds.

On my last rooted device Galaxy Note8 with Android 7-9 I removed or renamed the *.ogg files in /system/media/audio/UI folder.

This worked all the time.

Since I am rooted an have RW ROM from Dr.Ketan installed I did the same procedure as described above.

First i added extension .bak to the files, but as it didn't work I moved the renamed files to a different folder. But the shutter sound is still active.

I assume there is a second folder which contains the same files.

Any ideas where the releavant files are located?

@yakapa40

I confirm the folder is not there on my S918B.

That's why I prefer the old way with renameing files, that usually works for all UI sounds.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] mateusz3112:
In last few days I noticed battery drain. And as well I think it started same time I noticed screen flickering when in battery settings. Video explaining attached. As you can see its fine until I get deeper into settings then "system operacyjny Android" starts flashing slightly and screen flickers and it's laggy. It stops and then starts again Anyone else has similar problem?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] krakout:
XDA allows 200+MB attachments? 😁

It'd be easier to describe (in English?) the settings path you took.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] mateusz3112:
I was surprised too 😂 sorry it's in battery settings and that's what's flashing "android os"
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Anonymouze:
Hi mate, I do have the same problem with the battery settings view. But no solution so far.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] mateusz3112:
Looks like a small glitch then. What app can you suggest to have a proper look into battery usage? Like idle etc with details. Something is draining my battery. I have accu battery now but I don't see any details there
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Anonymouze:
I've rooted all android phone since I bought my pixel 7 pro a few days ago. Don't want to root again because of magisk hide etc. But there a a few things, like the battery section or the missing nfc quick tile, that makes me to want to flash a custom Rom. But so far I stay strong and keep the stock Rom.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] krakout:
I don't have that glitch... Rooted here.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] HipKat:
I don't have that glitch, either
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] NippleSauce:
Perhaps a full device wipe is needed.

If I continually update and re-root my phone each month without the "wipe' parameter, I eventually run into some not-super-noticeable OS issues. But, of course, once that occurs I just make a Google Drive backup and re-image my phone with the same factory image. However, I just leave the wipe parameter in the flash-all batch file when I do this and any OS or root problems seem to be resolved after doing so.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] krakout:
You don't need to re-root with every release. Just use Pixel Flasher.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] NippleSauce:
If I remember correctly, Pixel Flasher is re-rooting after full system images are flashed. Or perhaps it updates over the OTA method? Regardless, I have never used it as I have never needed to, haha =P. Re-rooting only takes me a a few seconds =)

So, it is re-rooting after the updated system image is flashed, haha =D.

Just for clarification, rooting a Pixel is done in the act of patching the stock init_boot.img and then flashing it. When the system is updated, the entire factory image is flashed, and thus, the previously patched init_boot.img is replaced with a stock, unpatched init_boot.img. At this point in time, the phone is no longer rooted. But that is why users like us re-root our phones afterwards =). The Pixel Flasher is just incorporating that re-rooting process into its convenient, ease-of-use application experience - which is a very good thing to provide an option for.

Every day is a new day to learn something different =).
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] krakout:
Nope, it patches and flashes the image automatically itself.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] mateusz3112:
The thing is that that drain started on Friday I think. Didn't install any new apps etc. I have around 30% phone iddle - is that normal?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] krakout:
What do you mean 30% idle?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] mateusz3112:
Like that
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] krakout:
Ehhh when idle apps are still running in the background checking for stuff etc... It'd be better if you used some other battery analyzer like GSAM for more details.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] mateusz3112:
Ok so looks it's back to previous battery performance after yesterday's update. Definitely flickering problem is fixed and that's my today's battery result. And the phone idle seems gone down from 25-30 to 15%
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] ericDraven77:
I have the same issue since the last update from I think Monday evening.

Since then my battery drains a lot faster then before. I have a loss of 30% during a night without doing anything within these 7 hours. Before the update it had around 6-8% less in the morning. And it drains a lot fast during the day too. I have 100% after charge in the morning, go to work and when I come back it is down to ~30%. Last week it was on ~60% or more when I came home.

No new apps, nothing changed except the update.

This is really annoying me!

Don't want to wipe the hole phone as I don't use any Cloud on my ohones and would have to backup via MyPhoneExplorer and set up all by hand again.

Or is there any backup solution to backup everything on a phone all at once without root?

Oh and my Idle has around 30% battery usage, before the update it was on maybe 10% during a day.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] HipKat:
I've been through this. For no reason, it's an insane battery drain. I ended up wiping and reflashing the newest firmware, staying on Stock Kernel and restoring my Swift backup - user apps/data only - and only logged into the apps I actually use and it got better. Not perfect, but better. After I week I reflashed the Kira Kernel and it's been back to pretty stellar again, like you said, only dropping a few percentage points at night
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] mateusz3112:
It was exactly the same with me but so far it looks like march update somehow fixed it. I didn't do factory reset or anything else. Just after march update battery is back to its usual performance (ish) I'm still in the process of testing it. It's just very frustrating that battery drain started just like that.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] jwalker:
Dear All,

I've a strange problem (I have TT6 and IGO8 on my Diamond + FULL EUROPE maps):

*in my city/area (Milan-Italy) the GPS signal is fast and perfect and the navigation is totally ok.

*When I move to other regions or nations (e.g. to Rome which is 500km from me, but I've tried also abroad, in Belgium, Holland, Denmark, Romania, etc.) I never get enough satellites, I never get GPS signal. I mean NEVER. I waited for minimum 30 mins each time, and no signal.

It sounds very strange to me, are there any settings to change?

PS: I always download the GPS ephemeris when I'm in my city, before to travel. Do you think this is the problem? Should I download the GPS ephemeris every time I am in a new location to make it work?

Thank you
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] peterc10:
Downloading the ephemeris data for where you actually are should help speed things up, but you should still get a lock after a while.

Last month I flew from UK to South Africa. Switched TT on in the taxi from the airport, changed to Southern Africa maps and within 5 or 10 minutes I had a lock and the map was showing me where I was.

Cannot understand why this is not working for you though
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] jwalker:
Thank you, I think I'll hard reset again, and I'll install only the navigation softwares to see if there are other applications causing this problem, otherwise I'll bring the device on warranty repairing.

Many thanks

[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] OrionBG:
Hey everybody,

Have you noticed that at a certain angle there is a clearly visible camera hole on the inner screen of the Fold 2?

Look at the upper right part of the screen where usually the signal bars are displayed.

Perfect camera sized opening under the pixels... I guess they initially designed the screen with an under-dsplay camera in mind, but for some reason decided not to do it at the end...
[Xiaomi Mix Fold 2] Goronok:
Ambient light sensor. Cover the hole with your finger and the screen will dim.

How to add the Repository to the Ex Kernel Manager application - is it needed to download the modified Android Kernel.

I'm having performance issues with my G4 H815. I am using LineageOS Android 18.1. Here is Linux Kernel version 3.10.108-g199b5c5a1 (nobody@android-build) (gcc version 4.9.x 20150123 (prerelease) (GCC) ) #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Aug 11 16:51:21 CEST 2022 support. I need to know how to get support for 6 cores for the CPU in LG G4 H815 - if I don't use Smartphone Games, and how to get support for boosting performance parameters for reading and writing a 128 GB MicroSD card. It informs that for this version of the Kernel the performance of reading and writing the Micro SD Memory Card 128 GB is low. I need to know how to install Modified Kernel - add newer drivers - which support faster reading and writing performance of 128GB Micro SD card. I am asking for quick support. Dear Community, I am a beginner in the subject of learning about Android Mods.

I urgently need to get a Modified Kernel install on LineageOS. I need to achieve newer drivers - primarily MicroSD card read support drivers - because the current driver, the current drivers do not allow efficient reading and writing for my 128GB MicroSD card. My card is class 10 - here read and write for this card is very low. I urgently need to change this quickly by adding newer drivers. I know that you can improve the reading and writing performance of the MicroSD card by adding / compiling additional drivers - newer ones - that have faster reading and writing parameters for the MicroSD card.

I kindly ask for help. I urgently need to get higher performance for me.

The Kernel I provided does not allow the Pixel Experience system to boot successfully - I confirm that I tried to run Pixel Experience as an img.xz file - via DSU Loader. At the moment DSU Loader - won't install successfully. I get a message saying failed to install. It states that this Kernel does not allow to successfully obtain many of the facilities it needs.

I'm going to edit this kernel, or install/add a modified kernel.

I kindly ask for help.

I am a beginner when it comes to Programming.

But with the guide I am able to get good knowledge and learning.

My Smartphone LG G4 H815 - is the device on which I have to learn all this.

[Vivo X Fold] Koysii:
I've been trying to connect to the free version in Google play ladb connect on my Vivo X fold plus but all I receive is the starting server message for more than 5 minutes and then it just hangs up sometimes or nothing happens. My Vivo is on android 13 btw on latest updates and I have enabled high battery consumption for the app and enabled wireless debugging, usb debug, allow screen overlays (also tried it with split screen, but works easier with screen overlay/floating window for settings app) I also tried enabling an option that said allow adb terminal or something similar.

Tried reinstalling the app, rebooting phone. Is there anything else I can try? Last resort is my laptop but this would so much more convenient.

It's worked on my Xiaomi Mi 9 on android 11 with the same setup screen overlay etc

[Intel] patel8786:
My child uses a Diabetes Device (Dexcom G7 CGM) that connects to my phone via bluetooth.

If I'm out of range (6 meters) it disconnects and I can't get any info or alerts. It also can only connect to the one device that it's paired with and cannot be repaired to another device.

I'm aware that with Wifi we can have multiple "repeaters" that allow us to connect to one SSID but switch between the closest router.

Is there something that I can keep close to her that will identify as my phones bluetooth and repeat that bluetooth signal more than 6 meters but if I'm out of the house with her and only have my phone with me it should still be able to connect to my phone and not always have to connect to the device?

A normal range extender would not work because it wouldn't identify as my device.

Any help is appreciated.
[Intel] anawilliam850:
One solution could be to use a Bluetooth range extender or repeater. These devices can receive Bluetooth signals and then rebroadcast them at a higher power, effectively extending the range of the signal. There are several Bluetooth range extenders available on the market that may work for your situation.

One option is the "Wireless Bluetooth Transmitter" by Avantree, which is designed specifically to extend the range of Bluetooth devices like your Dexcom G7 CGM. Another option is the "Bluetooth Extender" by Cricut, which can extend the range of Bluetooth signals up to 100 meters.

Another possible solution is to use a Raspberry Pi or similar device as a Bluetooth repeater. This would require some technical expertise, but there are tutorials available online that can guide you through the process. Essentially, you would use the Raspberry Pi to receive the Bluetooth signal from your Dexcom device and then rebroadcast it at a higher power.

Keep in mind that while these solutions may work to extend the range of your Bluetooth signal, they may also introduce some latency or delay in the data transmission. It's important to test any new devices thoroughly to ensure that they are working reliably and providing accurate data.
[Intel] patel8786:
Thanks but I believe that the range extender would appear to the device with it's own ID, this would mean that the device would not pair with it because it needs to also have the app. Also I need to be able to leave the house with just my cellphone and no repeater.

That's why I need a device that will appear to the dexcom as my phone and relay the data to my phone further away. Exactly the way it's done with a Wifi repeater that has the same SSID and the main router.

Hello. I own a Xiaomi 12 and would like to buy a Xiaomi 13 later. I have a problem in TWRP on my phone, can't backup the whole phone. A yellow message will appear there that it is not possible to back up the internal storage, including apk, video, music. What is your experience with backing up Xiaomi13 in TWRP. Is there also a backup issue? Thanks for the answers.
[Xiaomi 13] TheNewHEROBRINE:
I believe you can backup the internal storage (/sdcard) manually.
[Xiaomi 13] Benoni1:
Hello. But I don't know how to manually. Any guidance. Thanks
[Xiaomi 13] TheNewHEROBRINE:
You can just connect your phone to the computer and copy the files.
[Xiaomi 13] alecxs:
Hello @Benoni1

kindly read the manual for TWRP and understand that Internal Storage /sdcard is not included in TWRP backup. That is especially important for phones with no MicroSD Card slot, where the backup files are stored in Internal Storage. This is done intentionally and no misconception, therefore no TWRP developer will change that for you.

https://twrp.me/faq/backupexclusions.html

After backup is created, you can always copy files to PC as suggested.

adb pull -a /sdcard

Please do not cross-post the same question multiple times, this is against the forum rules you have been already warned.

I have moved your new post to the other thread.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers] ZugTheDragon:
I've installed the Evolution X ROM (A12) on my Redmi Note 5 a while ago. The ROM worked well, it would only start bootlooping when the storage is full, which I always was able to fix by deleting Telegram cache (it grows to 1GB in a single day) and moving my photos to the PC

This morning I've found it bootlooping again, but it was too quick to get to settings to delete cache, so I put it in recovery mode and deleted cache from there, however the phone still only manages to boot to my lock screen and bootloops again after a few seconds. Even does it in safe mode. I've tried to move all my photos again from recovery mode, I freed up 16GB but it still does not boot.

Any non data destructive suggestions would be very welcome

Anyone has a compatible rooted boot image for Pixel 6a?

Same problem on Pixel 7 Pro

[Google Pixel 6a] blackroseMD1:
Has anyone tried with the new Magisk 26.0 yet? I just installed the 14 preview, so I'll give it a shot and report back, if not.

Edit: Sucessfully rooted with the 6a boot image from the latest dev preview and Magisk 26001.
[Google Pixel 6a] kamote_sa_ulap:
Are you patching the init_boot.img or the just the boot.img
[Google Pixel 6a] Lughnasadh:
The Pixel 6a (or any of the PIxel 6 series devices) doesn't have an init_boot.img.
[Google Pixel 6a] kamote_sa_ulap:
Oh so I guess for the 7 it should really be the init_boot.img

I tried with the new 14 public beta patching the init boot with Magisk 26 and it's still not rooted.

I wonder if I patch the boot.img instead for the 7, will it brick my phone?
[Google Pixel 6a] Lughnasadh:
That's because the Pixel 6 series doesn't have an init_boot.img. You are patching an image that your phone doesn't have.

Patching the Pixel 6a boot.img with Stable 26.1 or Canary 26101 should work. It did for me on my Pixel 6 Pro running A14 Beta 1.
[Google Pixel 6a] kamote_sa_ulap:
Im sorry, but im not using a Pixel 6a I'm using a Pixel 7 which have both the init_boot.img and the boot.img
[Google Pixel 6a] Lughnasadh:
Ok. I figured you had a PIxel 6a since this is a Pixel 6a forum and thread.
[Google Pixel 6a] kamote_sa_ulap:
yeah unfortunately, so far this the only thread that talks about rooting a pixel on android 14, nothing on the pixel 7 forum yet. Well it was worth the shot. Thanks.
[Google Pixel 6a] Lughnasadh:
Try here. Patching the init_boot.img with Stable 26.1 or Canary 26101 should work for you.
[Google Pixel 6a] kamote_sa_ulap:
Alright, i'll try the Canary 26101 since I already tried the Stable 26.1 and it still doesn't work. Hopefully that will do the trick.
