[General Questions and Answers] chris_on_linux:
Hello everyone,

I wonder why you can't listen to any FM Radio station with the latest phones when connecting some headphones (I personally use the Realme 8i) but you can with older phones. I love listening to my favourite radio station and I was able to do that with my old Samsung S3 GT-I9300 (2012). I don't understand why I need an app that requires an Internet connection to listen to my favourite radio station while I could do that with a pair of headphones. Can you please explain why I can't listen to the radio by using my headphones with modern phones, and tell me if there is a way to do that?

Thanks,

Chris

Why do most smartphones not have FM radio anymore?

Mashable is a global, multi-platform media and entertainment company.

[General Questions and Answers] chris_on_linux:
That's just sad...
[General Questions and Answers] James_Watson:
More and more manufacturers no longer include the hardware chip in their new smartphones due to cost reduction considerations. In some other cases, various carriers even disable the functionality of the FM radio hardware to force users to use more mobile data.

I have to keep mine at 90% or above to read the display. At 10% the screen is nearly pitch black. Is everyone else experiencing the same, or do I have a bad display?
[Motorola Edge+ (2022)] LA Beach Geek:
I can use mine outside in the sun. I usually stop in shade if I can, but that's because of glare and it's hot down here. 😎

I actually turn on "Extra Dim" at night.

Any chance Extra Dim is on?
[Motorola Edge+ (2022)] nortnil:
It wasn't, but I actually like the color contrast better with it on. I'll leave this on and see if it helps with battery life.
[Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Questions & Answers] MaxxLyFe:
EDIT MODERATION - Post translated by moderator

I changed the board of my Xiaomi Mi note 10 and when trying to register the Biometrics an error appears stating 'It was not possible to add the fingerprint, try again'.

I started the 'CIT' and tested the 'Fingerprint sensor Check' and the result was 'Pass'. When testing the 'Fod Fingerprint input test' the screen is black with a white circle in the location of the sensor and does not give any result.

I covered the white circle with paper, with my finger, with a black cloth, with a black bag... no result.

The technician said that the sensor is linked to the board and when changing the board the sensor stops working forever, I found this very strange, it makes no sense.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] golcheck:
I've had my phone for over a year now. Never had issues with anything.

Recently when I tried to unlock the screen with my finger it didn't recognise it. It was vibrating but saying that fingerprint is not recognised. I thought the screen is dirty so I wiped it - didn't work. Then I thought I have cuts on my finger so I tried to add new fingers but it doesn't work... Fingerprint sensor lights up but it's not vibrating and not scanning my finger.

I've tried resetting my phone and still couldn't register fingerprint. I've reset it again and it worked! But only for 2 days... Now again the fingerprint sensor doesn't work.

I'm on LE2123_11_F.75

Has anyone experienced something similar? Just wondering whether it is software or hardware issue?
[OnePlus 9 Pro] AndyC76:
Depending on where you bought your phone, it usually comes with a warranty 2 or 3 years.

Try log a case with OnePlus directly.

Hey guys, hoping you are well.

Has anyone tried to flashing the USA unlocked version firmware to (SM-S908U1) to another region phone, I have a SM-S908E, and would like to try a bloatware free version?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] V0latyle:
You can flash a different CSC, but it must be for the same model number. If you try to flash S908U/S908U1 firmware on your S908E, you will probably brick it

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] GIRATOR:
/* excuse windows person in advance for poor grammar */

TL;DR:

LG V20 H918

bootloader unlocked

bootable LOS19.1

no fastboot available

no recovery available

Goal: setup magisk using adb root shell

Is it possible?

What happend:

On stock LG V20 H918 no flashing was available in fastboot, probably done by manufacturer.

No stock recovery available as well.

I was able to unlock bootloader and install TWRP using "lafsploit".

Then I installed LOS 18.1 and Magisk with TWRP.

Everything worked perfectly.

Later I decieded to update to LOS 19.1, and probably forgot some step in the process.

LOS 19.1 boots and works OK, but without root/magisk. TWRP now stucks in splash screen.

I unable to install Magisk or restore backup without TWRP.

I unable to reflash TWRP without fastboot.

But I have acces to adb root shell!!!

So I thought it should be possible to repeat all changes Magisk does when patches boot.img, right?

I examined boot_patch.sh from magisk.akp, then compared original and patched img-s.

Waht I concluded magisk does:

1: create ".backup" folder in root

put there original "init" file

put there ".rmlist" file with what to remove on uninstall

put there ".magisk" file with checksum and other variables

2: create "overlay.d" folder in root

create "sbin" folder in "overlay.d"

put there same ".xz" files mentiond in ".rmlist"

3: perform some modifications to "init" file in root

Will it work if i repeat all this changes through shell?

Or do i need to do something else, like changing that checksum somwhere?

I have all this files from patched "boot.img", including that "init" file.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] V0latyle:
Is this a guide, or a question?

If this is a guide, you need to write it in such a way that others can easily follow it.

I don't know enough about LG devices to tell you whether you can accomplish what you're trying to do. From what I can see, rooting is extremely complicated. This is why I have a Pixel.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] GIRATOR:
This is a question, I just atempted to give as much information as possible.

IMHO this sitiation should not be specific to this particular device.

In other words, is it possible to install magisk by "patching files" on booted system? (without re-flashing boot.img?)
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] mmsp15:
I had to flash the lineage recovery to replace twrp when i installed the 19.1 rom. You can still install magisk using the lineage recovery.

If I recall however you can also patch the bootloader to install magisk through the installed magisk app itself aswell. As for the specifics of your question of installing it without patching of some way to the bootloader... ive no clue.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] GIRATOR:
I was unable to install recovery, and there was no recovery when I got this phone with "stock ROM". thought it was done this way by oem.

Atempting to boot into recovery results in "brocken android icon" with "no command" text.

Yes, this is how I installed magisk first time: install app -> patch boot image in app -> then re-flash patched image with twrp.

My idea is to do all reqired changes manually, as we have root acces from adb shell:

As for now I mimicked difference betwen patched and original 'boot.img', which coresponds to "Ramdisk Patches" section of Magisk's "boot_patch.sh":

'.backup' and 'root/overlay.d/sbin' folders and their contents, init file and all permissions

Phone boots but no changes in magisk

Also added '99-magisk.sh' to /system/addon.d

It seem to launch, but no changes in magisk too.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] GIRATOR:
Posting in case somebody will search for this.

For magisk to work some changes in kernel may be reqired. If kernel in patched boot image is different from original, then there is no solution this way.

Wiping cache and userdata can possibly fix TWRP bootloop, but If your fastboot unable to flash anything, then it probably also will be unable erase/format cache and userdata.

>>>!!! Backup first if you can, this will erase all your files and apps !!!<<<

Try to do hard factory reset this way, it helped in my case:

- Turn the phone off.

- Press and hold "Vol. down" + "Power btn"

- When LG logo appears, release "Power btn" for ~0.5sec. then push again

- Hold "Vol. down" + "Power btn" until hard reset menu appears.
[Samsung Galaxy A8+ (2018) Guides, News, & Discussi] V0latyle:
Is this a GSI? If not, you MUST provide the source you used for your kernel, as required by the GPL Policy.

Further, did you base this on someone else's work? You MUST give credit where due, per the Forum Rules.
[Samsung Galaxy A8+ (2018) Guides, News, & Discussi] BernoO:
Yes. It's a GSI from @phhusson. All vanilla, no modification whatsoever. Kernel is included on Vendor_Quack, a SaR posted here too, from @prashantp01 . All is based on guides and files from this same forum (and all files and sources are linked here), except the steps.

No problem. I'll quote everyone involved for making this 👍🏻Done :D

As for the steps, as i said, it was trial and error. There was no guides or something that i know of (FOR ANDROID 13). I just take a leap of faith based on last good know version working (Android 11) and use that, since Android 12 was no good in some details.
[Samsung Galaxy A8+ (2018) Guides, News, & Discussi] V0latyle:
A GSI does not include a kernel, but since you linked to an established project that already has a published source, everything is good.

Thank you for adding credits.

I don't know if you saw this, but the Magisk installation instructions include details on how to defeat KG/Vaultkeeper.
[Samsung Galaxy A8+ (2018) Guides, News, & Discussi] AlphaMaster08:
Did Android 13 worked for you , and did you try setting lock as that seems to cause a bootloop .

If it worked can you tell me how you did it as my phone's seems to bootloop after trying to set a lock (pin,etc) on Android 12 and 13 and I have already tried PixelExperience and LineageOs .
[Samsung Galaxy A8+ (2018) Guides, News, & Discussi] chrisssj2:
NVM wrong topic
[Samsung Galaxy A8+ (2018) Guides, News, & Discussi] BernoO:
Can confirm. Since i was just testing, didnt need to lock it. After trying to set a pattern or pin lock (and systemUI crashes), ive reboot and then a soft bootloop (for 3 seconds i can see lock screen, then android boot screen, 3 sec lock screen and so...).

After another reboot, bootloop.

I dont have this issue since lock screen was just sliding.

Another issue: bluetooth is working, but when wireless speakers are on sync, no sound whatsoever. A common fault on several android 13 installations as i can tell.

Remember that @phhusson is adding exynos updates on TrebleDroid, so we should expect (or beg, cant tell :p) that more fixes are on the way?
[Samsung Galaxy A8+ (2018) Guides, News, & Discussi] AlphaMaster08:
And BTW if Someone needs it the best Roms/GSI for A8+ are TreeUi(S20 Port) , PixelExperience (11) and FusionX(10,maybe) and Don't try Android 12 /13Gsi as they don't work currently.
[Samsung Galaxy A8+ (2018) Guides, News, & Discussi] BernoO:
Thanks!

This guide most of all was because a couple of users were asking if there's a way to run Android 13 on their A8s. So there's an answer for that now. Almost.

[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] ssnova:
Hi everyone. I was looking into getting an LG V50. Huge fan of the V-series from LG. Being the flagship, they integrated decent cameras, latest/greatest SOC's for it's time, decent screen, and one of the most appealing features to me: a 3.5mm with a quad DAC. It's essentially a great walk around device as far as I see it. Some may argue to just get a Walkman DAC, but an LG V50 is fully featured, including the camera+multimedia+ web browsing experience, etc.

Also, from what I gather, using the V50 as an actual phone is a no-go once it's flashed to a custom rom like LOS due to VOLTE not being unlocked, still holds true for today? Either way, I'd probably still plan on using it as a "walkman+" device.

Any how, with all this said, there's still abunch of "new" V50's on ebay these days(I doubt they are actually new, more like refurbished), is there a preferred variant I should be considering, especially if I want to go with a custom rom down the road?

What else is there to know/consider when going down the V50 road?

TIA.
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] ssnova:
I went ahead and picked up a V450, seemed to be the most abundant. I saw that you can cross flash, so I suppose for the V50 it doesn't matter what variant you get?
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] m0byn:
Hi everyone,

I am using Andy Yan's LineageOS 20 GSI. It works well on the Samsung Galaxy A50. The only thing which does not work, however, is the fingerprint reader. Whenever I try to register a fingerprint, settings just crashes. In the respective LineageOS 20 GSI thread several other people reported this behavior for the S22. Strangely, the fingerprint reader works perfectly fine on my Samsung Galaxy Tab S6. So, I thought maybere there is someone skilled enough to have a look why it does not work on the A50?

Side note: the A50 has an overlay, whereas the Tab S6 does not have an overlay...so it might be related to that?

Unfortunately, I am not skilled enough to play around with overlays, nor to figure out why the reader does not work on the A50. Maybe someone is interested in using the GSI and wants to get the fingerprint reader up and going??

I am happy to assist wherever I can!!

Please let me know if anyone is out there!

what a phone do you have. if you have a xiaomi you must unlock the bootloader. MAKE SURE: Unlocking erase your data. so make a backup first if you are sure
[Moto G62 5G] synakszymon09:
I made a post on Moto g62 so it's probably logical that I use Moto g62 I'm quite skeptical about magisk unless it's the only method because the last time I used it I broke my phone and spent PLN 80 (about $20) on a service center that still didn't fix it
[Moto G62 5G] ABC00012345:
is there a other method
[Moto G62 5G] smiley.raver:
its extremaly simple :)

unlock bootloader

download the firmware for phone

extract boot.img and copy to phone /sdcard

install magisk

open magisk and flash magisk to image file

copy /download/magisk_boot.img to pc

restart phone to fastboot

flash magisk_boot.img to both boot_a & boot_b

flash vbmeta --disable verification & verity

flash vbmeta_system --disable verification & verity *not mandatory

flash vbmeta_boot --disable verification & verity *not mandatory

restart phone
[Moto G62 5G] smiley.raver:
please see my comment - it is extremely basic - as an added messure as i have had magisc not be completely functional ( and this is frrom reasearching but there is a slight difference between flashing the device directly and flashing the boot.img file and then having to flash thatt via fastboot) but as I say it is just an added measure

re-flash the device from magisk after it has been booted just to cement the root processes - and you shouldnt have any issues at all.
[Moto G62 5G] synakszymon09:
I have a problem even with the first step because my computer does not see the phone in fastboot mode (adb works as it should) and when I try to install the drivers, the progress bar stops at some point
[Moto G62 5G] smiley.raver:
place your phone into fastboot mode - power and volume down or enter abd command to adb reboot bootloader

did you get it to work?

unfortunately not, but I'll try to install these drivers again because I have another computer and now I'm using linux (I'm going to install them via wine HQ)

[Google Pixel 7] SmilingPeace:
Good evening,

I have been using the Google Pixel 6 for more than a year and am basically satisfied with it. However, I think that an upgrade is necessary. Would the Pixel 7(a) be recommendable here? The only thing that has bothered me about Pixel 6 is dark scenes in videos. Black pixels are lit up in a funny way and yet you can't see much in the videos. Otherwise, I am also open to other brands with good price-performance ratio.

I am grateful for any advice and opinion!
[Google Pixel 7] blackhawk:
Welcome to XDA.

In general the improvements from year to year aren't that much; not much bang for the buck unless you get a really good trade-in deal.

I'm still using my Note 10+ and in many ways it's superior to the newest Samsung's and not much slower in actual normal usage. Nitpicking over a couple pixels for a cam upgrade isn't worth all that trouble. Pro cam shooters rarely upgrade their cam every year or two...

Bottom line; depends how deep your pockets are.

If you don't upgrade expect to replace the battery soon, routine maintenance, no big deal.
[Google Pixel 7] SmilingPeace:
Thank you very much for your opinion!

In the Google Telegram channel I got recommended that I wait until October for the Pixel 8. Let's see what that brings, except for the unnecessary built-in fever thermometer.
[Google Pixel 7] poit:
I replaced my P6 with a P7 after it was accidentally damaged beyond repair. I can barely tell the differance. The phones seem to drop in price quite a bit about 3 or 4 months after their release, so if you can wait til the end of January most of the early bugs will have been worked out and the price will have dropped by at least $100.
[Google Pixel 7] blackhawk:
You benefit by waiting not only in a reduced price but by seeing if any unsolvable hardware bugs are present. I would give it 6 months. Use independent reviews here, on utube and Reddit to better guage the actual performance and any issues that crop up with the device.

Look at the mess some of the S23U owners are having with the banana shaped optical blurring with their main cam. It's not just Samsung, both Android hardware and firmware are more shake & bake then ever. When people are in a big bad hurry... mistakes happen. Sit back, observe then pick the device that will best fullfill your mission if you have that luxury. A good flagship should last you many years.
[Google Pixel 7] PuffinNugz:
Just upgraded to the Pixel 7 from the 4xl. Only real improvements I see is less bezel, updates install faster, and slightly better camera. May return the 7 and stick with the 4xl a bit longer.
[Google Pixel 7] blackhawk:
Do the Google phone vs phone vid search. A 2019 flagship can hold up well to the newer phones. Replace battery as needed and keep rollin.
[Google Pixel 7] manjaroid:
I've never used the 4xl but I like its lens spec. With newer Pixels I'd rather not resort to digital zoom for avoiding distortion. 7 Pro answers that but only if prices drop enough.
[Google Pixel 7] GaryFe:
I had a Pixel 6 since they were announced and was very happy with it except for the fingerprint reader. I work with wood a lot and it seems to screw up my fingerprint mightily. I basically abandoned the fingerprint reader and just used a PIN. When the Pixel 7 arrived, I traded-in my Pixel 6 and got a Pixel 7. I am very happy with face unlock and that I don't have to deal with the fingerprint reader anymore. I can't say anything about the 7A, but the Pixel 7 screen is very much like the Pixel 6. In fact, I think of my Pixel 7 as a "Pixel 6, refined." There might not be enough difference in the screen to make it worth it. Same with the cameras. Again, this relates only to the Pixel 7, not the Pixel 7A.
[Google Pixel 7] LLStarks:
I went from the 6 to 7. It was a lateral but very needed upgrade. Much more stable.
