[LineageOS Questions & Answers] helloyello:
Hi folks,

I'm a happy owner of a Xiaomi Note 11 phone and a very unhappy user of the latest Android 13 based LOS20, due to the impossible color scheme introduced in Android 12.

I'm basically using the dark theme and I have a really hard time reading the usual (system font) text, which is small and has a really bad contrast being by default grey-blueish. I found no (documented) way to change that system font color and LOS20 has a series of basic colors (one dumber than the other) in the Wallpaper & Style settings, none of which having a white default color.

I enabled high contrast in the Display settings, the system font got really white, but if it gets displayed over a non-black background, then a stupid halo like shadow is displayed around it making the reading again very difficult.

Here I found more complaints about Google's UI colors choice since Android 12:

In Android 12 can you manually change text color without using themes or changing wallpaper? - Google Pixel Community

I tried that Repainter App and it didn't even start on my LOS without Google Apps subsystem (that's why I run LOS in the first place).

Repainter v1.2.0 brings new Material You theme styles for unrooted Android 13 and OneUI 4.x devices

Repainter v1.2.0 brings new Material You theme styles for unrooted Android 13 and OneUi 4.x devices, and you can learn about them here.

www.xda-developers.com

I'm wondering why the LOS devs didn't correct this UI design issue, since there are a lot of voices (plenty of links on goggle search) complaining about this poor UI/color design choice by Google since Android 12.

I'd be very happy if some of you more knowledgeable could point me to what file to edit/hack (phone is rooted) in order to set the system font on white.

Thanks in advance!
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Sheist!:
I have misplaced the solution for this problem. I am on A13 crDroid 9.3 so no ability to dump Dalvik or cache in the limited recovery. Here is a screenshot. (Plus, Mobile Network is almost always the top app despite not using mobile data)
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] PinguiNUX:
It's exactly the same for me. I am also with crdroid 9.3.

The excessive battery consumption problem happens because for some strange reason there is a wakelock related to the mobile data network, which causes the phone not to go into deepsleep when it is idle. In fact to me it literally marks 0% deepsleep. And perfectly in one night I can go 30% of the battery without doing absolutely nothing.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Sheist!:
Oddly, I always (and I mean always) see Mobile Network on A13 (or Cell Standby on A12) as the top battery app, and no suggestions worked for me. Saw in multiple custom ROMs, but not everyone sees it. I do not even use mobile data, only wifi. This "thousands" bug is sometimes part of it. Even putting the phone in airplane mode for a day does not change the battery stats at all for me.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] PinguiNUX:
I already found out what is the wakelock that causes this thanks to betterbatterystats. And the culprit seems to be IPA_WS or any other of the IPA family. These wakelocks indeed seem to be related to the mobile data network.

I just flashed crdroid build 9.5 on my phone. Despite being a nightly (beta) version, it fixes many bugs present in crdroid 9.3.

According to the developer the next stable version will be released soon. But in the meantime, I'm going to try a few days the 9.5 to see how it goes. And so check if they have corrected the failure of battery consumption.

In fact I have already checked that they have fixed some small bugs that were present in version 9.3. So so far so good.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Sheist!:
UPDATE: the latest MIUI firmware update seems to have helped me. I was on the .08, and this stable is .12. My battery percents are back in the tens. Good, since there is no known optional kernel yet.

Is there a way to flash just the kernel from the latest firmware? I don't want to reinstall everything again..

SPESN Global: https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/firmware/spesn/stable/V14.0.2.0.TGKMIXM/

flash via TWRP/Orangefox > done.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Sheist!:
That is firmware, not kernel. There are no kernel install options for spes yet. It even says "firmware" in the links.

I see the official crDroid site (https://crdroid.net/spes/9) now links to the A13 V14, which has updated in the last few days from the A12 V13 version. I'll install it myself.

My deep sleep has returned to the 90's again. (y)
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] gentano:
Oh lol, I misread your question.... but why you need to install everything again if You install the firmware only? the firmware is just the firmware and has nothing to do with data.. or do I miss something here?
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Sheist!:
I just flashed the firmware. You thought I rebuilt everything else from scratch too? :LOL:

I am installing the A13 firmware that just came out on the 6th of June now. (y)
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] gentano:
Hm, I still dont get you.

Why You need/ask for seperate kernel to flash when there is the firmware, which doesnt change any of your userdata?

Ye, thats what I linked and installing that firmware wont mess with Your userdata. So there is no need to reinstall any apps or whatever. Its the just the firmware (contains drivers and boot stuff) and not the whole rom image.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Sheist!:
RN10P has kernel downloads available to fix battery issues, etc like this, in ADDITION to firmware provided by MIUI. There are no kernels for the RN11 as of today. The RN11 firmware from MIUI just updated to A13 as of June 6, but had only the A12 version from April of this year before that on their "firmware" download link. Both files are just 1 zip files that get installed via recovery. I hope that clears it up.

Ignore any suggestions about removing/reinstalling anything else; I never asked about any of that.

(added P to RN10 to correct error and not confuse with any RN10 users)
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] mierdaseca:
So I can flash this, and I won't lose any data? For the naming of the firmware, I thought it was just a word for "official rom"
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Sheist!:
Just firmware. Firmware size is extremely small, while ROM size is extremely large. ROM and firmware are 2 different things. You could say the ROM is the house and the firmware is the land, but post-updatable land. No loss of data, except when something borks and the firmware has issues within it, causing you phone headaches.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] mierdaseca:
Thanks I just flashed it. But I still see the battery in thousands. How can I check the firmware version on phone?

BTW where can I download the nightly?

On https://crdroid.net/spes/9 I don't see anything besides the April b uild
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Sheist!:
Really? Hunh. Mine popped back to normal, but I did fully charge it and reboot it too. The deep sleep number (look under About Phone) jumped back into the upper 90's as well (good), and it had been stuck at 0.

I use Device Info HW which SHOULD (but does not even with root enabled on it!) show it on the 3rd tab, System, for the value of Description, but mine keeps showing just a dash! You'll have to locate an app that reveals the installed firmware.

Are you in India?
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] mierdaseca:
I just checked on about phone, and deep sleep still at 0%.

I also fully charged it, and rebooted and wiped battery usage data, but still shows thousands.

I also get a dash in that app.

No, I'm not from India.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Sheist!:
Look at the firmware link on crDroid again and try the A13 MIUI V14 firmware released on June 6. I installed it via adb sideload since my phone temporarily won't read my external SD card. I do not recall anything else to try. Good luck.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] mierdaseca:
I flashed again via adb sideload, but still nothing. I even updated to the latest crdroid 9.5 build and still nothing
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Sheist!:
Then you are not speaking about the RN11 spes. There is no 9.5 update for this phone. This forum is for RN11 spes. Look at Device Info HW again and find out what phone you are actually using.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] mierdaseca:
It's spesn, rn11 with nfc.

The 9.5 version is a beta from telegram, from the mantainet
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Sheist!:
Ask/research your question on the Telegram forum. Beyond the available firmware, and since the crDroid-installed recovery does not offer the ability to delete Davlik and cache, I am out of suggestions! I'm waiting for a different thread to provide the link to a "working" custom recovery on the spes. (i.e. TWRP 3.6.1 that he said he installed and is using successfully on spes, since 3.7.x variants all send me to fastboot). Good luck.

EDIT: I successfully installed TWRP 3.7.0_12-0.img via "install recovery ramdisk" after booting from it. This lets you dump Dalvik and cache whereas the installed crDroid recovery does not. Not sure if dumping them will help, but it did help me before when YASNAC kept failing on half my tests of root with Magisk. I was directed to the following source location: https://xdaforums.com/t/shared-unofficial-a12-a13-twrp-3-7-0-for-redmi-note-11-spes-spesn.4507819/
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] mierdaseca:
Thing is this happened on current 9.3 , updating to 9.5 was just another to try to fix this bug (alongside more annoying ones)

BTW is this your baseband version?
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Sheist!:
Solved - then came back! Deleted stats, recharged 100%, reboot - stats normal. Suddenly, changes to hundreds or thousands percent. Reinstalled MIUI V13 *.12 again, deleted Dalvik, like before. Same for MIUI V14 firmware. Seems to fix, but not for long.

What key fix have I missed? Since no kernels yet, no steps left to try.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] ThatAndroidUser:
How can i fix this? I'm using Paranoid Android and the battery usage is shown in thousands.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Sheist!:
So, I calibrated the battery (leaving it plugged in for hours after 100% full charge), deleting battery stats, rebooting... battery usage percents stayed in normal digits UNTIL 79% battery discharged when it changed to hundreds and thousands percent. Deep sleep promptly cratered from 90%+ to zero. Anyone suffer this condition and know the fix? Thanks for any suggestions.

crDroid 9.3 on A13. (latest MIUI v13 and v14 firmware tried but did not fix, and there is no kernel yet to try... is there?)
[Android Head-Units] openupitsdave:
I have a cheap 9212B head unit. Android 10, 4x1.3ghz, MCU 4.0.

Will the audio start clipping/distorting at higher volumes for you? If so, at which volume level does it start clipping?

I have tried using a 40hz tone to find the clipping point but I cant seem to find it. My car doors start resonating at higher volumes which makes it hard to hear...Or these units were built well enough that they don't clip, even at max volume..

Either way, it would be nice to get some confirmation so I could properly tune my amp gain level.

[OnePlus 7T Pro (Regular & McLaren) Q & A] sybradev:
After a recent OTA update, the notes field in the Contacts app is being limited to 1000 characters. Existing contacts are not affected, but if an existing contact is edited or a new contact is created on the mobile device, the NOTES field is truncated to just 1000 characters. After these contacts are synced, the same truncated content is displayed in the NOTES field online through the Google Contacts web app as well.

But contacts edited or newly created on the Google Contacts web app will maintain their NOTES content length without being truncated whatsoever. However, these are still displayed with the 1000-character truncation on the mobile device after they are synced. But the original is not affected when subsequently viewed online through the web app.

Anyone else experienced something similar?
[OnePlus 7T Pro (Regular & McLaren) Q & A] lukeoverhere:
My OnePlus 9 and 10T have consistently had this issue with truncated notes (it does not matter whether is it in Google Contacts or other contacts app btw) losing years of aggregated notes; for gods sake this is simple text, how could this possibly be an issue except for a patent item (a or churn characteristic); my notes are critical for contextual history of many thousands of family notes, events, and clients, this is a deal breaker for us.

[Realme GT Master Edition] DeeTox01:
So, I was in Android 13 when I installed a custom ROM. Today, I felt like trying to go back to RUI. I've successfully done it before during the Android 12 days, but this time seems like things changed. I used the same method I was using with OppoRealme-OFP-Flash_1.0.exe but this time the super.img file flashes very fast. When I attempt to update the current slot, it takes forever and then brings an error message (too many links). I have been trying everything the whole night. I also tried flashing the .img files one by one and almost hard-bricked the phone. Now, I am stuck in the bootloader. I can't power off the device or get into recovery. I am screwed and in need of your help.

My device is RMX3363
[Realme GT Master Edition] eliran0216:
Can you shut down the phone with the menu of the bootlader? scroll with volume buttons, if not remove the back cover of the phone and unplug and plug the battery connector and look on this guide carefully and it mandatory to do backup with the qfill app before the flashing
[Realme GT Master Edition] DeeTox01:
Thanks for replying. I could not shut it down so I waited for the battery to drain. I'll try this and tell you how it goes

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] maxiauer:
Hello All

TlDr; Has anybody replaced a PX5 (Rev 4, the ones with "fewer pins") with a PX6 (4 more pins) on their units? Which "Pins" you left unconnected, the 4 on the left or the 4 on the right? (@marchnz have you done this by chance?)

My old PX5 unit (Flash memory on core board) died and I am in the process of looking for a new unit. But I was thinking on "resurrecting" the old one for my dad's car or some other project, and got a used PX6 module. Problem is, seems my unit was older than what I thought, as the number of pins on the PX5-Rev 4 is lower than the PX6 (and "newer" PX5)

View attachment 5925395

I saw another post claiming that those modules are compatible anyway, so I checked the schematics of a similar unit and found that 5v VCC is provided in the pins 1 & 2 (the ones on the left, looking at the module from the top) while most of the last pins (7x) are either ground or WiFi related (and my MTC-D has an external WiFi/BT module)

But when trying to mount it, the screws work PERFECTLY if I leave the first 4 pins unconnected. And looking for a PX5 module in eBay I found one that seems to be the "transitional revision" that has 4 more pins but are left out of the connector...and those are on the left !!!

View attachment 5925399

I am at lost at what to do here. Does anybody has the pinout / schematics of the core boards itself? (either PX5 or PX6). Has anybody faced this isue before?

Thanks !!!

Max

Regards: Pubg Name Generator
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] maxiauer:
Well, I decided to take the risk, and indeed the schematics that are available are at least "confusing" (if not plainly wrong) as they show up a connector numbered with 76 pins (as if it were a real 76 pin connector) but the number of physical pins in the diagram is only 72 (you won't realize that if you do not really pay attention). So, old MCUs and old PX5 boards have VCC on pins 1 & 2 (left, looking at the top)

NEWER (76-pins based MCUs & PX5/PX6) have VCC on pins 5 & 6... meaning the FIRST 4 pins are either unused (or maybe used for features only available on MTC-E MCUs and PX6). So, the photo above is correct, when you are using a 76 pin PX5/6 on a 72-PIN MCU the first 4 pins are lef unconnected/floating and VCC is actually Pin 5 of the longer board.

I tested it and everything works (audio, video, wifi, touchscreen...)

Hope this helps somebody in the future
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Pavel-71:
These four pins are DSP (digital signal processor allowing advanced sound adjustment and enhancement). Nothing happens if they are not involved. You did a good job. The most common problem when replacing the board is non-functioning Bluetooth, the BT module must be replaced, but that is not your problem.

Just a little info. If you have a PX6 board. HCT-RK3399-REV12 with android 11, so they started putting the U-blox MAX-M10S (W10050-KB) gps chip on it, it doesn't show any satellites on android 10, just to clarify, if you wanted to downgrade to, android 10, for example on Hal9k mod 5.

Here's a wallpaper changer that will auto change at user set intervals with user's wallpaper. In options is the option to start it, stop it, set the number of wallpaper you want to include, the time interval in hours for the change, and which wallpaper directory to use.

You will need a folder(anyname) filled with your wallpapers you want to use. After WPC install, place this wallpaper folder inside the WPC folder. It should work with any number of backgrounds, they just have to be inside a folder within the WPC folder and numbered in order starting with 1.jpg up to your chosen number. There are zip files below with some random wallpapers I put together. With option 3(Set Number), you can also set them to change in order(linear) or randomly.

To install:

1- Download and run cab file. It can be installed to main memory or storage card, wherever is convenient. If you don't already have mortscript installed, then you will need to reboot now to register extentions.

2- It won't work using default background in Settings\Display\Homescreen, so choose any other background in that option now if your still using default wm background.

3- Go to Start Menu and choose WPCoptions

4- Set wallpaper directory to use. When selecting directory, number of wallpaper is set automatically, but can be changed to a different number using option 3.

5- Set the update interval in hours, can be from 1 to ?.

6- Choose option 1, Start Wallpaper Changer

7- Thats it, first change should happen immediately and changes take about 5 seconds, but they run in background.

I've added support for FeatherWeather with this version also. If anyone wants another weather app supported, post here or pm me.

For FeatherWeather users that want weather activated wallpaper, download the Feather.zip below. Unzip and place Feather folder into WPC folder. Take the Feather.mscr and overwrite the original in FeatherWeather folder.

Thanks to roloracer for this idea, and for extended testing on his device.

Ver .2 - Initial release.

Ver .3 - Added directory support

Added FeatherWeather support
