Hi!

I'm Tejas. I've been around XDA a long time and just created an account.

I have some experience with custom ROMs, but I'd always like to learn more.

My ROM journey started with an old Galaxy S3.....

[Xiaomi 12T Pro / Redmi K50 Ultra] hoanvu1100:
I just switched to K50 Ultra, is there anyway to fix camera crashes on Global ROM (very helpful if u post a link for GCam or something) - or unlock FPS for games in EU ROM? I notice its locked on 30FPS in almost every games.

Does EliteROM a good ROM for daily use?

Thanks for your help, have a nice day!

(Sorry for my bad English, not my tongue language)
[Xiaomi 12T Pro / Redmi K50 Ultra] uvzen:
Use Xiaomi.eu or Elite ROM. I don't know why you flashed Global ROM from Xiaomi 12T Pro, because these devices have completely different cameras, so camera will not work in Global ROM. Plenty of games have an option to unlock more than 30fps in settings, have you checked?
[Xiaomi 12T Pro / Redmi K50 Ultra] hoanvu1100:
I did check, but most of the game like PUBG, AOV all locked at 60FPS...
[Xiaomi 12T Pro / Redmi K50 Ultra] uvzen:
Unlocked more than 60 fps in games offers "gaming" phones like ASUS ROG or Redmagic, Xiaomi doesn't have this feature. You need to use magisk modules which can unlock more fps in games or use Elite ROM which has built in unlocking 90 fps in PUBG and CODM, (you can find it here) but I don't know if AOV does too.

[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Jatamanes:
Hi guys,

I'm from Brazil and I'm having the same issue on my S23 ultra.

I use 1 eSIM from Vivo and a SIM from TIM.

When I'm using the mobile data, sometimes it doesn't work even the 4G or 5G are on.

I tried switch between carrier (Tim and Vivo) and both show 4G sign and doesn't work.

There are two ways to restore the mobile data, restart the phone or turn off and turn on the airplane mode. But after some minutes the problem continues.

I went to a Samsung Store and they put a new and clean OS, but after 1 day the problem started again.

I searched about it and I couldn't find a fix to this problem.

I will try to use only SIM and not use eSIM. I read some articles that the T-Mobile was having same issues.

I think it is a chronic problem. Maybe they need a recall or a new update to fix this issue.

Does any know how to fix this problem?

I have 2 SIMs because there are some places that I work that only 1 carrier works
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] raul6:
Is that s23 for Brazilian market or imported?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] DamienTx:
Hey Jata,

I'm having the same issue with the S23 in Brazil. TIM doesn't connect to mobile data at all and on Vivo only WhatsApp is working. Did you find a solution?

Thanks in advance!

Here is a 8GB microSDHC for $15 USD with free shipping worldwide. Just found it on the website and looks like a good deal to me. Any comments?

And a 4GB microSDHC for $7 USD including free shipping worldwide.

Seems like cheap options available to many worldwide to me.

dont buy from them. Buy from newegg very reliable and always awesome

4 gig for 5.75

8 gig for 16.99
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] galfert:
I agree with johnny13oi. But get either the A-Data or Transcend Class 6 cards. They are the fastest.

I got the A-Data Class 6 for 17.99 free shipping from New Egg.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] lynxy:
I have 6 gig SD, but need a bit more of speed and space, so I listen to to you and ordered A-data for 17.99 from newegg.com

Another vote for Newegg! I got a little bigger card for my Fuze though, a Sandisk 16 GB card from Amazon for 55 bucks- http://www.amazon.com/Sandisk-micro...1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1228883056&sr=8-1

I've bought a lot from Amazon as well, and had only good experiences. I had a 6 GB class 4 card before this, and while the 16 GB card is class 2 it seems just as fast and performs perfectly.

Would a Kingston 8GB Card work, or is it not compatible? And if it is compatible, are there better cards, or cards that perform better?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] johnny13oi:
Yeah I buy from this site all the time. It just takes a while to get to you depending on where you live. There is a forum on there to ask questions about products and stuff. I usually buy my flashlights from there, they are really dirtcheap for what they are.

http://www.dealextreme.com/
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] Pantaloonie:
Dealextreme are excellent, I have bought from them several times - insanely bright torches and fire starting lasers. They have some great gadgets at low prices. They also have a lot of crappy stuff, also at low prices. They have an active forum where you can ask before buying. Delivery can take a while, if you want it quick, buy elsewhere.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] aceofspades1217:
I'm a HUUUUUGE dealextreme fan and often use volume rate but frankly certain stuff dealextreme doesn't do well. Deal extreme is better at doing gadgets and stuff like that with massive markups and profit margins. But with commidities like memory, hard drives, CD/DVDs, etc. its not a good ideas.

You will wait a minimum of 2 weeks (I've waited 4 weeks before) and you won't really save much money. Deal extreme has decent product quality but its not gonna be top-notch quality. Don't get something your going to rely on and that integrity and build quality is super important.

DX may have excellent products and have great value but they have always lacked in build quality, which is a trade off you don't want to make just to save a couple bucks on something you'll use so extensively and rely on.

I have bought a lot of stuff from volumerate and dealextreme (PS: Its the same company, dealextreme owns volumerate, it is just fully hosted in china and is always cheaper, although they only have select items) but I know where to draw the line and I haven't always been happy with what I have bought.

With this kind of stuff you can usually get better deals on newegg or, my favorite, tigerdirect.

Was going to buy 8gb A-Data from Newegg but bought Transcend instead. Same class, one buck cheaper :). but i payed for rush shipping so it made up for it anyways. Some people were giving bad reviews about A-Data so i went with Transcend. Im guessing it was bs and they are both the same. My card should get here in a few days then i will be happy with my class 6 :D

[Huawei P9 Plus Questions & Answers] jeanbono67:
Hello everyone,

I have this P9 Plus laying around that I wanted to use as a backup phone in case my main dies suddenly but when I turned it on, I was faced with a ton of unprecended events.

It was unlocked and a custom rom was flashed a couple of years back. But now when I turnt it on, I'm facing these messages:

1 - After this message, the screen freezes

2 - After this message, it boots into eRecovery

It then connects to the Wifi and greets me with

3 - When completely shutdown, I press down on the Vol down key and plug it into the comptuer, triggers Fastboot with this on screen

I can flash TWRP recovery (twrp-3.7.0_9-0-vienna.img) but it doesn't want to boot on it after I flash it, it goes back to message #1.

I really cannot wrap my head around this. I really don't know where could be the problem from ? What's preventing everything to compute correctly ? If you have any leads on this I'd be more than happy to try them !

Thanks a lot y'all !

Cheers !
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gcarter:
A decade or so ago, was a frequent visitor to XDA Forums to custom mod my HTC phones.

Fast forward to late last year, long story short, picked up a fake Samsung s22 ultra which was a cheap Chinese knockoff with whatever generic android version it has installed

It reports its using Android 12 and that's about it.

In its current state, the performance is very very slow, and can take a couple of seconds to navigate between screens, launch apps etc.

Is there any generic custom roms I could throw at this thing?

EDIT - here's some relevant screenshots

[General Questions and Answers] Jens6489:
So about a day ago, I did a software mod to my Lenovo Smart Clock 2, and installed an Android Launcher on it so I can use it like a normal Android. Fast forward like an hour later, I unplug it and move it to another room. When I plug it back in, everything seems to be normal, but the clock doesn't go past the Lenovo Boot Animation and just stays at that screen. Did I somehow brick it by unplugging it while it was still running? Is there a way to reflash/reinstall the OG Android AOSP on it? If not, can I get it traded out under Lenovo's warranty?
[Google Pixel 6] choder:
I bought a refurbished phone on amazon. (pixel 6). It is a Tmobile variant verified through store.googe.com/us/repair. Can the bootloader be unlocked. In the developer options is says OEM Unlocking "unavailable on carrier-locked devices". I have tried factory resetting and loading the latest image. from google.
[Google Pixel 6] webhook:
You might need to pay off the device first then unlock it using the T-Mobile App to unlock it.
[Google Pixel 6] choder:
I'm just assuming that device was paid off to be sold through Amazon as a refurbished device?

There is an application to unlock the phone from T-Mobile? Do you have to have a T-Mobile SIM and service to do that?
[Google Pixel 6] webhook:
T-Mobile Device Unlock (Pixel) - Apps on Google Play

Request a Mobile Device Unlock from T-Mobile without calling Customer Service

play.google.com

You might need a T-Mobile account connected to the phone - I'm not sure because the last time I've done this method was like 2014.

If that doesn't work, you can try to call T-Mobile to manually unlock the phone.
[Google Pixel 6] choder:
I ended up contacting T-Mobile support. They said that it was locked due to non-payment or something similar. I don't know why a seller on Amazon would sell a phone like this.
[Google Pixel 6] webhook:
The phone is probably not paid off yet.
[Google Pixel 6] Jaitsu:
That definitely sounds like grounds for a return/getting that seller banned.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus] liberalswine:
Hey all! I smartswitched from my s20 to my new s23 plus. Everything was fine, but I noticed that none of my "hey google" reminders notified me. However, they do show up on my old s20 which I use as a secondary device at home.

On the s23, I've quadruple checked every single notification setting ensuring I should see the notification. If I look in the reminders section of Google on my s23, I see all the reminders that were set, and how dare they say I missed it! The nerve!

So what gives? Why am I only getting my new reminders on my old device instead of my new one? Must I sign out of Google services on my old device? (I don't recall having to do this when i had my s20 and s7 edge working together). If I set an appointment for my Google calendar, that does in fact notify me on my new Samsung, just not reminders. Frustrating!

Help! I need real google reminders, and not the crappy samsung reminders.

2. I connected my Redmi 9C to that VPN server using VPN client provided by android (setting -> VPN)

3. Status is connected but I could not access any website

4. I tried to ping 8.8.8.8 from my Redmi 9c but request timeout

Yes, I have. I am currently using radio from build 19949. I can definitely say it has better reception in my area. I tried them out before posting them up. However refer to the post http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=455353&page=3 posts: 33-41 for more info.

Here's the link to the radios. I flashed my xperia x1i successfully, but the radio info on the device never changed despite the fact that all the radios had different size and origination: http://www.4shared.com/file/75157477/41406b1f/Radio_ROMs_for_xperia.html
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] ell82:
I have already flashed few differents radios from Raphael and Touch HD, they working without any problem. You only need to make NBH file with NBHUtil and make sure in XML of this program there is 0x300 for Xperia radio (orginally Olipro/Cmonex adds 0x301 but it's wrong). If in xml is 0x301 device shoudn't be bricked (if its hardspl) but it will not change the radio.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] ianl8888:
Thank you for this post - I can see it's significant, but as a lesser mortal I cannot grasp the full meaning, so:

1) Olipro/Cmonex wrongly added 0x301 to ... WHAT, please ?

2) we need to edit the XML of the radio nbh file to 0x300 ? Or some other XML file, or ... WHAT, please ?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] xmoo:
Could someone start a radio thread. And make these rádio's for Xperia???
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] mffu:
Thank you very much! You answered my question about why after flashing different radio's the version in device info never changed. Now after the xml was corrected, I bricked my device two times soon after flashing the prototype Radio and ATT Fuze one. It tells me that American Rom, supporting the 850 UMTS in ATT Fuze did not like the guts of the x1i. So it very much could be the lack of hardware for it? If only we could try the prototype radio for the same evaluation purposes. How come we cannot flash the prototype rom back on x1i?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] fards:
Cmonex said they were signed in a particular way in the hardspl thread, maybe they need hex editing to allow them to flash.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] mffu:
Thank you, fards!

Could anybody help on this, please. We would all like to test the prototype radio. It could be a software switch that enables 850 UMTS if there is hardware for it. In prototype Rom there were all UMTS bands listed. After flashing the Att Fuze radio onto my x1i I had to go through the "unbricking" process. It did not like the american radio for some reason.

If anyone knows how to edit and flash the prototype Radio portion on x1i, please give us a hint. The device ID does not match when attempting to flash with radio b19949.

Any suggestions would be very helpful. Thank you.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] ianl8888:
The murk seems to deepen.

I still have a simpleton question above unanswered, but now we seem to have people who do know the answer to that question bricking their device, with evidence pointing to a hardware difference.

Perhaps when we have a genuine X1a radio file to compare with an X1i radio file, we may advance.

For sure, Qualcomm's greed is now stuffing up half the globe.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] fards:
I'd leave it for a bit if you don't know, as it could get messy. When it's sorted then start playing :D

However from what I understand (can't help myself I like to play)

the xml referred to is the nbhutil.xml in most of the kitchens (including the kovsky)

Sure I'll be corrected if I'm wrong, but it looks like it allows you to "resign" the radio much the same way as hex editing it does. I linked to the discussion thread on that one earlier.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] mffu:
Guys it isn't a problem to modify 0x300, but to change the device ID to be able to flash the prototype at least. Some folks flashed with the similar band Radio's from Diamond or Raphael successfully.

I was not able to flash any American (with 850 UMTS support) Radio yet, nor the prototype radio. We need an expertise on further guidance.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] ianl8888:
Thank you for the reply. I can easily hexedit a file, but I needed to know which file of course.

I have an X1a on order - supposed to be delivered in maybe 2 weeks. I'm in Aus in an area serviced by the 850Mhz frequency, so I'll be able to give a definitive. When the thing does arrive and everything works out of the box, I'll do a "pcoread" and upload the raw ROM files here.

SE have stated to me in an email that there is no X1a, X1i etc, only an X1. At this point, I'll suspend disbelief. Also the UK retailer I am purchasing from (who has in the past proved reliable and honest) is doing the "funky chicken" about actual supply date, although they say they have stock. I made it very clear to them that if the 850Mhz is crippled, the thing goes straight back for an instant refund ... so we'll see.

Anyway to convert it to Xperia??
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] chalid:
Ok guys, just flashed my Radio. At first I did edit the hex value to 0x300, like described here. I flashed using the default ruu update tool and I got an error, which bricked my device. So I moved to the SD-Card method and flashed directly from it. Same problem - update goes up to 100% and then quits with an error. The device is unusable.

However, when changing just the Raphael value in the nbh file - from RAPH***** to KOVS***** the update worked perfectly fine. I flashed back to the default radio version and now to the newest Touch Pro radio. The new version is not shown in the device information panel, but I can say for sure that it worked. When reception is lost its back in 1 second - before that it took 5-10 seconds. I will report back after using the device outside ... ;)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] romeo0119:
This is indeed good news, even if it doesnt unlock anymore band, the improve signal would be great.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] ianl8888:
No radio cab will "unlock" the UMTS 850Mhz frequency in the X1i, in my view.

I've posted on this in the 850Mhz thread - the X1i and X1a have differing hardware (likely the radio crystals cured to specific but differing frequencies) and HTC as assembler have separate production runs, as they did for the Touch HD ... my source for this is a very disgruntled retailer.

It's one on-going result of the Qualcomm patent theft US Court decision, of course.

Improved phone reception however is a big plus though, so I will try it, but the post should have listed the radio version number for the Touch Pro cab he installed. Not doing this just adds to the confusion unecessarily.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] gtrab:
Anyway, HTC Touch Pro (Raphael) is UMTS 900/2100 only. UMTS 850MHz is not lised (source: HTC.com and pdadb.net).

Regarding UMTS 850, I guess the HTC Touch Diamond 110's radio (North american version) should be "the one" to try.

Curiously enough, Touch Pro and Diamond 110 have the same Qualcomm MSM7201A chip... but different bands ?? :confused::confused:

If somebody can provide that radio (from the north american diamond OR even better,FROM THE X1A) then I am willing to try it on my Xperia.

This is the only way to find out if the "european" X1i Xperia is UMTS 850 capable or not.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] tjex:
My X1 is security unlocked, will that allow me to just flash the rom without having to change anything? (I'm a little confused at the difference between locked and unlocked.)
