[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] jfd3220:
I have 2 Poco F3s with the latest LineageOS nightly build installed (20230429). On one of them the fingerprint unlock stopped working after the update and when I go to the fingerprint settings it seems the fingerprints that were enrolled are gone and I am presented with the "Set up your fingerprint" page. When I click through, instead of enrolling fingerprints I get a popup that says "Enrollment was not completed. Fingerprint enrollment didn't work. Try again or use a different finger."

I have tried searching for other people reporting this problem, rebooting several times, and rebooting into safe mode. I am hoping that someone here can advise me what to try next. I am hoping to avoid wiping the phone. Is it safe to reflash the same build from LineageOS Recovery?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] cyanGalaxy:
LineageOS for our phone is still based on Android 12.1, right?

In that case, try flashing the last Poco F3 v13 Firmware for your specific region (EEA/Global/whatever). xiaomifirmwareupdater.com is a good source.

Not sure if LineageOS Recovery is capable of flashing Firmware, but OrangeFox Recovery (which I use) definitely works. TWRP too.

Also try removing Screenlock entirely.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] jfd3220:
Thanks for the reply. The baseband versions seem to be different on the 2 devices. I've downloaded the firmware for the device from the link you provided. I had installed LineageOS recovery because I had read about people having issues with TWRP on this device, and I didn't want to risk the hassle. Can I flash the firmware using adb or the Xiaomi flash tool and retain user data?

I don't believe the screen lock can be disabled because some Microsoft apps on the device require it.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] cyanGalaxy:
If you imported your phones, use the Original Region, and last v13 version of that.

The Firmware ZIP-file is a recovery-flashable ZIP, so only using Recovery, or ADB Sideloading inside Recovery ("adb sideload <firmware.zip>")

You will not lose user-data. The firmware-install only updates the firmware-related partitions on your phone. Unrelated to your ROM-related partitions and your data-partition.

You don't have to install OrangeFox Recovery or TWRP, you can simply boot it:

"fastboot boot twrp.img"

This is the Fastboot command to boot a Recovery-IMG file from your PC.

I use this Recovery: https://orangefox.download/device/alioth

You have to extract the "recovery.img" from OrangeFox.zip.

Or you can install OrangeFox Recovery by installing the ZIP itself.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] jfd3220:
Thanks for the detailed reply! I used TWRP on all of my past devices but I will try OrangeFox. I had not heard of it. I will update after flashing the firmware.

Update: I flashed the firmware for my device from here via adb sideload in LOS recovery and the fingerprint enrollment is working again. Thanks! OrangeFox recovery is going on both devices next.
[Android Auto General] jeroensky:
Hello all.

If I look on the internet for "Android auto alternative" then I get apps for on phone itselves, that use phone screen.

For unrooted android smartphone.

I want to know if their is a (prefer open source like f-droid apps) real alternative for android auto, that shows apps on the car entertainment system (in my case a Subaru from 2020).

I don't want android auto because:

- I need to install google apps, but I removed as much google and huawei apps as possible on my huawei mate 20x 5G.

- google decide what apps are accesssable/supported by android auto.

-with every android auto app update it is fingers crossed if the used apps are still available (for example Signal app suddenly gone from car screen).

So what none google app can I use to get my phone screen on my car multimedia system that supports android auto.
[Android Auto General] SOFO888:
You can try MirrorLink if supported. But there is no other alternative as far as I know.

Unfortunately.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus] Nikanor1:
Hello!

My friend just received his new Samsung S23+ and he has encountered several problems which he told me about, so today I hopped on a call with him so he could show me the issues and they are indeed as he says they are.

Issue #1: When he is calling someone, he can barely hear the other person, the volume is so faint even though all the volume sliders are maxed out. We have not checked the "Absolute Volume" and "Adaptive Volume" setting in the developer options yet. I digged around to see if other people have this problem and could only find this thread https://eu.community.samsung.com/t5...call-volume-too-low-on-s23-phone/td-p/7163399 which sounds like the same issue my friend has. Does anyone know how to fix this or is it indeed a hardware fault like the thread seems to suggest?

Issue #2: Whenever my friend plugs in his earbuds (they have no microphone) via a USB-C to 3.5mm adapter, the phone's internal microphone just shuts off, resulting in no one being able to hear him in a call or a voice message. Is there a way to not have the phone shut off its microphone automatically when he plugs in his earbuds?

Would be super duper cool is someone could help us with this issue, I checked issue-trackers for the phone, but they did not seem to list any volume issues.
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] Robilletjes:
So, i've been flashing custom ROMS on my android phones for many many years. Never really screwed up... Except now. Let me explain;

I was going to flash LineageOS on my OnePlus 8 phone. Nothing I haven't done before. I follow the guide as the maintainer described (for your reference, https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/instantnoodlep/install).

Towards the end of the process when I got to Installing LineageOS from recovery I'm asked to format data. Here something went horribly wrong. As the process of formatting finished. All that's left to do is reboot. And so I reboot. This was the last time I ever got any sign of life from my phone. Because after shutting down, it never started back up. No sign of life at all. No fastboot, no adb, not even a splash screen. I've tried to boot it with any combination of keys. But no matter which one (reset, boot to recovery, even boot to EDL). nothing. Not even a buzz or a battery indicator when I plug it into the charger either. Bricked beyond anything I've ever seen.

In the 3 days since it happened I've:

- Charged my phone for 20+ hours

- attempted rescue using fastboot/ adb

- followed the steps from about every comment in this thread: https://xdaforums.com/t/cannot-unbrick-cannot-enter-edl-mode.4148589/ (on USB3 and USB2, with the oneplus official cable and 3rd party cables)

- followed the steps this friendly youtuber explained:

- pressed any button and any combination of buttons on my phone for at least multiple minutes

- screamed at the phone really loud

Obviously none of these steps did the trick. My computer (I tried 3 computers actually, and both in Windows and Linux) just does not recognize the phone anymore. Nothing in device manager. Not even when i'm attempting to EDL.

Quite honestly I'm just stumped. It's not even recognized by device manager. If I didn't know any better I'd suspect the hardware itself failed at the exact same time as the software. I hope any of you can help me out.
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] Xryphon:
One option you can try is getting an EDL cable.
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] Robilletjes:
Hi Xryphon,

That's interesting actually. I didn't know there were specialized cables for this. I was just using regular USB C. I'll look into getting one.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeputyStankus:
I'm hoping I'll run into a merciful soul who can help me with some stupid questions. I'm trying to backup app data from my old phone (stock, unrooted Android 8.0) and restore it on my new phone (stock, unrootedAndroid 13).

I previously used Helium to do this, with this exact same model of Android 8.0 phone (LG V20) with no issues. That was several years ago, though. Now I'm encountering two problems:

1. Several apps, such as Candy Crush, are listed as "backup disallowed" in the Helium backup menu. I definitely backed these up in the past, so I'm not sure what's going on.

2. Even with the apps I can backup, I can't get them to restore on the new 13 phone, as the Helium app doesn't seem to see them. It does see my older backups from several years ago, and I can restore from those, but that's not very helpful in this case. The only thing I can guess is causing this is it looks like the newer backups (which are in the same \carbon folder as the old backups that still work) are .ab format while the older ones are all .json format.

I have been researching for days on how to fix this, but I usually end up in threads that go into fairly complex (for me) cmd commands, and I just can't seem to follow them. I'm sure they're written quite well for someone who has some familiarity doing that, but I just don't. I've only ever used cmd when getting specific, step-by-step, dummy-level instructions from tech support.

If anyone can help me surmount these issues, whether through Helium or some other (non-root required) method, I would be really grateful.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeputyStankus:
I really, really appreciate your response.

Do you know of any guides for doing this at:

1. Are written for complete idiots like myself? The ones I've found seem to presume a level of comfort with command line interfacing that I just don't have.

2. Go over backing up and restoring data for specific apps? The ones I've found focus on replicating the entire phone.

I'd be willing to root my old phone, but my understanding is that, since it's never been rooted before, this would delete all the app data I'm trying to save. Plus my new phone is a Samsung, and I've read that the newer Samsungs like mine simply cannot be rooted.

Edit: I probably should have mentioned that this is the thread I've found that has gotten me closest to understanding: https://xdaforums.com/t/backup-rest...me-between-phones-adb-shell-non-root.4378323/

The main issues I'm facing are:

It says to download the attached "adb.rar," but none of the other threads had mentioned any downloads, so I'm worried about doing that.

It talks about getting app info from "BS4/Pro," but there's no links. I have no idea what that is. So far as I can tell, I can just get the app name by looking at the folder name on my phone or from within the CMD adb commands, but I'm always worried about making assumptions when I already know I have no idea what I'm doing.

Also, I've seen some threads mention that even this method won't work with apps that have backup blocked, but I'm willing to try if I can figure out the other issues.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alecxs:
if the issue is with restoring helium backup, adb is worth a try. it's basically the same method, although helium backups aren't compressed.

if new phone is rooted, restoring backups is possible with more advanced methods.

for apps that have backup opted out, try phone clone apps.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] TheMystic:
In Samsung OneUI, the battery usage of an app can be controlled from 3 different Settings (which kind of overlap with their functions):

1. App Info page/ Battery

2. Device Care / Battery

3. Ignore Battery Optimization Setting

By default, the battery is set to 'Optimised' for all apps.

On the App Info page, if Battery is set to Unrestricted, the app will not appear in the list of apps under Never Sleeping Apps in Device Care. But, if an app is added to the Never Sleeping Apps list in Device Care, the battery setting remains at 'Optimised' in the App Info page.

It is not clear which option is better for apps that the user wants running all the time. For example, I use Netguard and want it to remain running without being killed. Although I have not seen Netguard getting killed with either option, I'm still not too clear on which is the better option between these two settings.

Likewise, if Battery is set to Restricted on the app info page, the app will not show up in the list of apps under Deep Sleeping Apps in Device Care. But, if an app is added to the Deep Sleeping Apps list in Device Care, the battery setting automatically changes to 'Restricted' in the App Info page.

The problem with adding apps to Deep Sleeping list is that they are delinked from Google Play Store (and probably blocked from setting alarms, accessing System Events, etc. too), and so would not receive any updates until the app is launched again. So Deep Sleeping Apps setting is likely the more aggressive setting to prevent apps from running in the background.

The other problem with Deep Sleeping list is that any app that is removed from it is automatically added to the Never Sleeping list. So one must remove the app from this list too to bring it back to the default setting.

Finally, we have the Ignore Battery Optimization Setting, where an app added to this list will automatically have it's battery setting changed to 'Unrestricted'.

If I have to list them in the order of most aggressive to most privileged, it would be like this:

1. Deep Sleeping Apps

2. Restricted Battery (without adding to Deep Sleeping list)

3. Never Sleeping Apps

4. Unrestricted Battery

5. Ignore Battery Optimization

Hopefully someone can clarify this.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] therock3181:
One is Android thing and the other is Samsung way. If you select restrict you won't find it through Samsung own app usage.

You can choose one of them or both. Samsung is easier to manage.

*EDIT* What the, you have over 600 apps ?!?!
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] TheMystic:
Do you agree with the conclusion in OP

😂

Actually over 1,000 if you count the System Apps. Even my Watch has over 300 apps and watchfaces. 🤣
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] kimiraikkonen85:
I wonder the answer of question same as OP. When you set battery setting of a particular app to "unrestricted", you can no longer add it to "never sleeping apps" list.

So which one is wiser to use, adding app to list of "never sleeping apps" or choosing "unrestricted" from battery setting of the app?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] TheMystic:
Unrestricted is the better option. It gives the most freedom to apps. I use this setting for apps that I want running all the time, e.g. Netguard, Macrodroid, etc.
[General Questions and Answers] vrracing:
I have been searching google and every forum I know for hours trying to find a solution. Maybe I am just too frantic to realize the answer but I ran elf-uspl and when it failed on the second step like the walkthrough said it might, it rebooted, but instead of rebooting it froze at the windows mobile logo screen. the walkthrough said it would just reboot and I could try again but its dead. I cant hard reset or even get to the boot loader screen. i really hope I just overlooked something.

If you saying that the device is getting stuck on Win logo that means it not dead yet :)

Hello forum,

is there anyone here who could unlock the OEM bootloader on a Nokia 6.1? I don't have Windows and can't use the much quoted software to unlock. If there is someone who can do it successfully, I would of course post the results of all my attempts so far on linux using adb, fastboot and mtk.

Also with an answer that it can NOT be done this way would be helpful to me, because then I would not search around further.

[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Zinnz:
You have to fastboot into recovery, and install recovery thru the recovery gui on your phone.

Fastboot boot recovery.img

You can't install recovery through fastboot, only boot into it.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] DarthJabba9:
I think you need to explain fully what you have done, which version of OrangeFox you tried to install, how you tried to install it, and which ROM you are running.

I can assure you that installing OrangeFox or TWRP or any other recovery can't prevent entering into the bootloader mode - unless you did something

very

wrong.

I cant enter on fastboot mode, when I press volume down my screen is black and then go back to the logo
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] DarthJabba9:
This is meaningless. Each release has a version number. Which version (supply the version number) did you try to install? Which recovery did you use to try to install it? Which version of Elixir were you running at the time?

It is important to state the

precise version numbers

of everything, because some ROMs use vendor_boot-as-recovery, and if you flash a standard recovery on them, you

will definitely

get a bootloop, and nobody can advise you unless it is clear what precisely you have done.

Any, by the way, none of this should prevent you from being able to enter the bootloader mode with the Power + Volume down combination.

[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] senseless1992:
Hello,

I wanted to do a full backup via TWRP and I'm not getting anywhere. Do not stone me even if there are already some threads, I do not find the right solution for me.

After I wanted to make a full backup, TWRP quit me the service with the error "Error 255 in createTarFork() process".

Then I tried the solution "rm /data/extm -Rf" here nothing seems to happen, except that I can enter a new command in the terminal again. Secound Space and Dual Apps are not in use or do they need to be uninstalled via ADB?

Beyond that, my technical skills and language comprehension are not sufficient to evaluate other solutions as suitable. Therefore, I hope someone can address my problem.

Is it normal that the log file is almost 10MB?

Also, is there any way to see if my Rom was installed cleanly? After about a year of use and just cleaning the cache, the phone was unbootable and had to be completely reset....

I would greatly appreciate any help/support!
