WARNING: ONLY DO THAT IF YOU ARE REALLY SURE AND DO BE CAREFULLY. I recommend you: do it not.

By downgrading to an older software, the bootloader in many cases can be destroyed, so your phone is completly bricked!

I write this from EXPERIENCE. My amazon fire is completed bricked, when i have flash a older SYSTEM. It can't turn on, no fastboot, no recovery!
[Moto G 5G Questions & Answers] RETIEF:
I suspect, but don't know, that all phones with unlocked bootloaders are blocked from 5g from AT&T. I know my kiev (RETUS) is.
[Moto G 5G Questions & Answers] whitedavidp:
Thanks. Yet another reason to dislike ATT, I guess. Sadly, in my area TM coverage stinks. And this phone will not work on Verizon (unclear why but they reject the IMEI). And getting the Verizon variant will preclude ever rooting the thing. So I really feel trapped!
[Moto G 5G Questions & Answers] RETIEF:
Likewise

I always figured it was this

as my IMEI SV on the Metro/TMO variant is 05 rather than 07. Never tested with a locked bootloader though.

Bootloader unlocked Pixels work fine on ATT 5G, don't know about OnePlus.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite Questions & Answers] Samkapimuni:
Hello Good People

I have Galaxy s10 lite snapdragon version. Pretty expensive one. I love my phone.

Sadly, there are ghost touches at the middle of Screen as yellow circle. No warranty period. I tried apps to disable that portion of screen by overscan but no way.

Is there any way to disable that portion by changing screen resolution like this:

"adb shell wm overscan left,top,right,bottom where left, top, right and bottom are the coordinates upto which screen works.

For example, phone resolution of 480px × 854px, would have had this problem, adb shell wm overscan 0,0,0,839 to disable 15px at the bottom of the screen.

Or adb shell wm size 480x839

"

i got this code from net. It disables at bottom but i need the disabled portion placed at the middle of Screen, which i don't know. Would you please help me with correct code or any other way so that i can use the screen without being bothered by ghost touches. Please please. Help a little.

Minimum width 400 dp

Size	6.7 inches, 107.8 cm2 (~87.8% screen-to-body ratio)

Clear system cache, hard reboot, and try in safe mode.

Could someone with an original Oneplus 11R (CPH2487) with root access help extract and share their ocdt.img

Using ADB:

adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/ocdt of=/sdcard/ocdt.img
exit

EDIT: CPH2487 ocdt.img #1 added (not working, need another img for byte comparison)

Thanks for the help🙏, just wanted to make sure you have the original Indian variant of 11R?
[OnePlus 11R (Ace 2)] Rastatorba:
dump made from original 11r indian version , not ace2 with Oxygen.

unsubscribe about the result after flashing ocdt img

before flashing the new ocdt.img, do not forget to backup your old one on Ace2
[OnePlus 11R (Ace 2)] simima30:
Yep. Noted with thanks.

What do you mean by unsubscribe?
[OnePlus 11R (Ace 2)] Rastatorba:
about the result, whether it helped or not.

Ah okay, sure. I'll try to get it done within 3 weeks. Meanwhile, anyone who attempts it beforehand please let us know the results. 🙂

waiting for the solution 🥺
[OnePlus 11R (Ace 2)] jopac84:
Dude, what you guys need is that same file but from Color OS, because it could be hardware difference too... And it works normally on Color OS for this model, so it should technically work, if it is compatible with Oxygen OS
[OnePlus 11R (Ace 2)] simima30:
We need the odct.img file of original 11R OxygenOS devices. We can obtain the ColorOS IMG already.
[OnePlus 11R (Ace 2)] leo52307:
I thought the issue is caused by ODCT not flashing when we flash Color OS to Oxygen OS.
[OnePlus 11R (Ace 2)] simima30:
Which is why we need the OxygenOS OCDT file.
[OnePlus 11R (Ace 2)] leo52307:
But I'm wondering why @Rastatorba OCDT not working
[OnePlus 11R (Ace 2)] jopac84:
Oh, sorry i did not know what the actuall problem is... If it is because it's not flashed during flashing oxygen OS, then i guess you need from oxygen OS
[OnePlus 11R (Ace 2)] Rastatorba:
a man with firmware a08 made a backup ocdt.img ,this device has not even been updated

I had same problem change my rom from oxygen os to color os and now fixed and works smothly. Its oxygen os bugs hope color Os 14 will fix it
[OnePlus 11R (Ace 2)] Agret:
If you guys have ColorOS14 decrypted try and flash the my_product.img to your OxygenOS14. I have an Ace2pro and messing around cross-flashing firmware imgs from other phones and the my_product.img has an xml file with brightness values for the auto brightness. If I flash the file from a OnePlus 11 onto my phone the auto brightness keeps making the screen too dark.

In theory you can get that file from ColorOS and create a Magisk module to override the OxygenOS brightness levels xml and this might fix the issue.
[OnePlus 11R (Ace 2)] Agret:
Connect your phone to your PC and run command

adb reboot fastboot

You can also run this command

adb wait-for-device reboot fastboot

And instead of going to recovery just start your phone normally and adb should kick in during the boot animation and then reboot your phone to fastbootd

Both of these assume you had previously enabled USB debugging and told the phone to always trust device with your PC.
[OnePlus 11R (Ace 2)] hamadali329:
here is the solution post by a youtuber
[OnePlus 11R (Ace 2)] Rastatorba:
His video is a hoax, he just updates the Android firmware to 14 Oxygen But this will not give anything, the screen will also flicker and, in addition, the screen refresh rate will drop to 15Hz! Only flashing the OS color gives results. Ac2 for oxygen OS does not work normally.

Hi everyone,

I have bloatware app installed on my android head unit. I want upgrade it to newer version but it fails.

I tried to uninstall it by using different methods. All fails. Then I used universal android debloater it finally uninstalled. But seems not uninstalled completely. When I tried to install the same app manually fails. I tried (adb install file.apk) command and got:

Package signatures do not match the previously installed version.

When I go to apps> system apps, I can see the app there but it’s greyed out and got (not installed on this user)

I tried : adb uninstall [PACKAGE_NAME]

Also failed. Error ( deleted failed internal error)

Please help me to solve my problem. I really need to install the new version of the app.

[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Phil232:
Unfortunately my Redmi Note 10 Pro fell in the bath last night. The water had bath salts in it, which was unfortunate. I took the phone out immediately, so about 4 seconds immersion.

The screen has been flickering every 40 minutes or so, apart from that it works normally.

I've turned the phone off, and have it by a dehumidifier for a couple of days.

If anyone could answer the following, that would be greatly appreciated.

- Will water damage be covered in the warranty? Does the phone have Liquid Contact Indicators?

-If I open the phone up to have a look, will that void the warranty?

-If the screen is still flickering after a couple of days drying with the dehumidifer, what are my options?

Thanks for your help.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Sheist!:
Put the phone fully immersed in a bowl of rice. It did not help me but maybe it will you.
[Moto G Power (2021)] GeoffUK:
Hi

My G9 Power is stock ROM and is just over 2 years old, It's running fairly standard stuff and isn't rooted. . Last night I was responding to a message when it shut down. It had plenty of charge, at least 60%.

Rebooting it just results in the boot looping - splash screen for a few minutes, then blank, then restart. I deliberately left it doing that all night to exhaust the battery, which happened earlier.

It is recognising a cable is plugged in but my memory tells me that a light comes on the say it's charging, which isn't happening now - but that may be because of the stage it's in in booting (though it doesn't come on when the phone is off either). There is no haptic feedback when I plug in the cable, or sound.

So while I'm no expert I have previously replaced ROMs on an old phone, so I thought of Recovery. I can get to the menu which includes recovery, which is headed (in red bold) AP Fastboot Flash mode (Secure). The options are Restart, Bootloader, Barcodes, Recovery and Start. Barcode shows me barcodes and start goes back into the loop but Recovery doesn't do anything at all.

How can I get round this as I can't use ADP unless it's in the recovery menu can I?

Or is it dead, terminally?

Any ideas appreciated...)
[Moto G Power (2021)] Kaziwazee:
Your best bet might be to follow Post #3 in this thread. You will likely lose anything that wasn't backed up. But it might be useful in salvaging your phone.

Instead of the link in that thread, you probably need the newest firmware from this: https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/motorola/cebu/official/RETGB/ (I'm guessing you're in the UK, based on your username and the spelling of "recognising"). Extract the file and then run the commands from the first link.

You will need to have platform-tools installed.

Hope it helps.
[Moto G Power (2021)] WoKoschekk:
no, always take the flash commands out of flashfile.xml from insode the firmware zip.

@GeoffUK That would be my advice, too. Download the firmware and flash it. A bootloop is mostly related to a corrupt /data partition and flaahing the firmware will erase /data.

If you have any questions about it just ask.
[Moto G Power (2021)] WoKoschekk:
or try this tool

Rescue and Smart Assistant (RSA) - Lenovo Support DE

support.lenovo.com
[Moto G Power (2021)] Kaziwazee:
Thanks for this important correction.
[Moto G Power (2021)] GeoffUK:
Thanks for the prompt and useful reply.

I'd have quite happily tried the suggestion but I can't identify the correct file in the link https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/motorola/borneo/

Also, when I plug the phone into the PC there is not a glimmer of recognition on the PC (though the phone knows it's been connected) so I don't think it is sufficiently connected to do anything with - don't forget I cant boot to any menu, recovery or otherwise. I've tried different cables etc.

Lastly, I ran it down to zero battery yesterday. I don't think it is even charging as it was plugged in overnight and on the occasion I can get a display the battery state is showing 0% (i,e, when I first plug in the cable).

I'm not about to spend a lot of time or money trying to fix it but I have just ordered a new charging port dock as that was cheap enough and seems reasonably easy to replace.

I'll report back once that is done, meantime would appreciate any more thoughts people may have.

Thanks again.
[Moto G Power (2021)] WoKoschekk:
But you can see a screen like this?

View attachment 5914465
[Moto G Power (2021)] GeoffUK:
Yes (sometimes)
[Moto G Power (2021)] WoKoschekk:
This is the 'bootloader screen' or 'fastboot mode'. To open that screen:

device is powered off:

hold Power+Vol- to boot into fastboot mode

device is powered on (but bootloops):

hold Power+Vol- for 10-15 sec. to boot into fastboot mode

In that mode you can use the LMSA to flash a new firmware. In case it won't work you have the option to flash the firmware manually (with my help).
[Moto G Power (2021)] GeoffUK:
Hi, thanks for your patience.

I can get it to boot to the exact screen you show but it won't go any further, on any button press on the phone. I can scroll up and down from Start and see the other options but selecting any of them doesn't look like it does much. The PC doesn't seem to see the phone.

But I'd be happy trying anything!! :-) I realise the phone contents are probably lost.
[Moto G Power (2021)] Kaziwazee:
Once you're getting to that screen, that's a good sign. You need to leave it at that screen and then use Rescue and Smart Assistant (RSA) on your Windows computer to reinstall the firmware on your phone.
[Moto G Power (2021)] WoKoschekk:
In fastboot mode you are able to flash a new firmware. Download the tool linked above and install it. You get instructions by the tool. Try it and for any questions write a post here.
[Moto G Power (2021)] GeoffUK:
RSA is running and I am logged in but it needs the IMEI which I don't have.

It does say if you know your phone supports Fastboot you can connect directly via Fastboot mode but it doesn't explain how.

Will the tool also link me to the right firmware?
[Moto G Power (2021)] GeoffUK:
OK, I found the original box which has the IMEI on.

I'm now downloading the firmware.
[Moto G Power (2021)] GeoffUK:
Well that completed successfully but I'm afraid it didn't fix the problem....

I don't think the phone is holding charge. It was still looping at the boot screen though it has now stopped doing that and is just blank. I'll leave it on charge overnight but I'm not expecting much!

I have the charge port part arriving in the next few days so I guess that's the next step.

Thanks for your help, I'm really grateful!
[Moto G Power (2021)] WoKoschekk:
Still looping?
[Moto G Power (2021)] GeoffUK:
No, it's just dead. I think if I plugged it in it'd still be looping
[Moto G Power (2021)] WoKoschekk:
sounds like a hardware issue...
[Moto G Power (2021)] GeoffUK:
Yep, new phone. I'll try this part I've ordered before giving up.

Thanks for all your help though.
[Moto G Power (2021)] WoKoschekk:
no problem! I hope you will manage to fix the issue. (y)

[Google Pixel 5a] Spec_tech:
Hi everyone. I'm looking to get some input if it's possible to connect multiple bluetooth devices to a Pixel 5a.

I want to be able to connect to both a third party bluetooth audio receiver for my car as well as a possible radar detector that I may be considering buying. Specifically the Valentine One Gen 2.

From this Pixel phone help thread i found, it doesn't sound like it's possible. But I want to be absolutely sure that something like this wouldn't be possible.

Multiple Bluetooth devices - Google Pixel Community

I figured that as long as it's not two audio devices i'm connecting it to that it would be fine, but i'm not sure.

Anybody have any more educated ideas?
[Google Pixel 5a] lightuser:
I tried an experiment for you. I connected my Pixel 5a to my car and streamed audio from a video playing in my phone browser and then also connected my Garmin watch to the phone. I was able to perform a 'sync' operation on the watch which reported success, and I also saw an email notification from the phone appear on the watch, while music continued streaming.

I don't have any radar detector so don't know how that kind of device might work. The watch is pretty low-powered itself and so isn't very demanding of the bluetooth link.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] random123456789o:
Hello everyone, I'm experiencing some strange issues with my phone and was wondering if anyone could help me out.

My phone keeps cutting off calls automatically after a few seconds. When I make a call, the dialer opens with the loudspeaker turned on.

Additionally, I've noticed that my phone's speakers and microphone are not working properly, as I can't hear anything when I play audio or try to record a voice message on WhatsApp.

On youtube app, website twitter or any where video is playing but i can't here anything.

When I set an alarm, the phone only vibrates instead of ringing.

On every app that uses mic or speaker either crashes or behaves strangely

I was using pixel experience android 11 and orangefox recovery when it happened so i flashed cherishOS and twrp but the same issue is there. My device is Xiaomi Redmi note 10 pro (sweet)

How are you using to transfer the files? Activesync? WMDC? Total Commander?

Are you manually applying the theme or using M2D Customizer?

its a tmobile wing/ htc herald I put the files on my sd card throu activesync and then tryed to copy them to the windows folder on my phone memory. Not sure on how to do this at all I have figured out alot of other stuff just not the theme stuff
[General Questions and Answers] Corpsegrinder:
You shouldn't have to drop the XML on your SD card. Just browse for the windows folder on your device and drop it in there right away. If it doesn't let you drop it in the Win folder, then I would drop it on my SD card and use software called ''Total Commander''. TM is pretty much a file explorer but will let you change system files that would normally error.

Being I dont know all your circumstances, this is what I would do and how I have it setup on my phone. Works flawless as well. I can change themes in seconds.

If that XML file didn't cure your problems then I'm assuming you have issues elsewhere as well.

First I would remove M2D and reinstall it. Once you have that working again, download and install Manilla 2D Customizer...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=427392

Create a new folder on your storage card and name it ''M2d Themes''. M2D customizer works with a file extension of ''.mtdct'' Some skinners will create there theme's file with this extension for you. It is nothing more then a zip file with the extension renamed.

If the theme's files your trying to install is compressed into zip format, just rename the file from ''.zip'' to ''.m2dct''. Drop the file into your new ''M2D Themes'' folder on your storage card, open up M2D Customizer and browse for the themes ''m2dct'' file you wish to install. Click ''Apply Theme'' and it does all the work for you.

I must have 30 themes in my M2D Themes folder and as I feel the need for a change, I'll load M2D Customizer and switch themes. It's a piece of cake!

Hope this helps.
