[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] Ronju Khan:
Its been 2 years 6 months that I bought Huawei P40 pro and not getting a suitable new phone from Huawei yet. P40 pro still running superb after installing the GMS. I tried to go without google service but had to install GMS due to poor availability of apps in Apps Gallery such as banking apps, mobile wallets etc.

Am waiting to see a rich Apps Gallery customised based on region and country so that customers can comfortably use Huawei's fantastic phones they bring in. If not then I strongly suggest to have google services to satisfy customers like me🤨

Hi,

I don't know if this is the right place to ask this question and don't know if it has been convered before.

I have sold an old contract mobile on ebay and the guy who bought it has received it and is now asking for the mobile number and the name of the original contract holder - sounds a bit odd too me. He claims this is needed so he can register the phone to his number and to avoid scams.

Any thoughts anyone?

Thanks.
[General Topics] the-equinoxe:
sounds odd to me..

hummmm

don't sound right to me too :confused:

Hi,

Do I have to reset the head unit running with the K4811 firmware if I want to use another canbus, or is it enough to replace it? If necessary, how? Thank you for your answers!
[General Questions and Answers] husoyo:
Is it possible? I have a Wanbo T6R Max projector and there are not many options for display and the built-in os is bad.
[General Questions and Answers] Qwerty_in_me:
maybe, if someone hasn't allready done that you're in for a wild ride!

look up how to port android to closed source platforms with binary blobs; start with postmarketOS, they have most of the things you'd need to install an aftermarket OS 😉😉

I cant seem to detect my pendrive, nor do i have any options for adjusting and updating my OS
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Samuël_Fab:
Hello everyone.

I bought a japanese Xperia 1 III (Softbank version A101SO) with Android 12 and I've searched for the 13 update but it turns out Softbank didn't release Android 13 on this phone yet.

So I decided to flash the KDDI version to it (with newflasher) and it worked.

But the problem is I got a very weak signal, a battery drain and the 4G rarely appears (always H or H+)

I tried to come back to the old original firmware but the phone won't boot after the flashing process (rollback protection)

The phone has a locked bootloader and it says it can't be unlocked so I wonder if you have a solution for me because I lost all hope right know.

If I can just go back to its original firmware (Android 12 from Softbank) that's all that I need right know.

Thak you for your answers.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] FiDra:
Unless you unlock your bootloader, otherwise, you cannot go back to Android 12 again. If your phone's config name 'Bootloader unlock allow' is No, then you have to stick around with KDDI Android 13 fw.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Samuël_Fab:
Thanks for your reply! I'll have to stick with it then...

But can I flash the Softbank modem to it to have a better signal coverage?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] FiDra:
I think cross flashing is okay but you need to do some search to make sure you flash all needed files to prevent boot loop.

🤞
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Samuël_Fab:
crossflashing works but the problem is the Signal and the battery drain.

is there a way to flash other modem files to the phone?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] FiDra:
Try newflasher, you can search the forum for the guide.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Samuël_Fab:
Newflasher is the tool to flash the roms.

I know how to use it since I've crossflashed my Xperia 1 III with another region FW using it.

My question is: is there a way to flash different modem files (and other important files) to the phone with a different region rom to fix the signal and battery drain issues?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] bentree:
Yes just keep the .Sin files that you fish to flash and remove the rest from the rom folder. And make sure when prompted by Newflasher to "keep user data".
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Samuël_Fab:
ohh! thanks for your tip!

I want to ask you:

do you know the name of the modem files that control the network?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] bentree:
Modem.Sin is the file you are after.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Samuël_Fab:
So I've successfully flashed the modem sin file but there's a problem with the camera.

It refuses to launch and the Telephoto lenses are moving all the time (with the noise of the lens moving).

But the signal is back at 4G.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] bentree:
no idea with that one... sorry
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Samuël_Fab:
I guess flashing it with other modem sin files don't resolve the issue.

I need to wait for the Softbank Android 13 (if it will be released one day...)
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Bachtran24:
Thanks to you and people on this post, I've been able to flash fw 61.1.E.5.215 into my A101SO and fix mobile connection and camera by flash .sin file from A101SO android 12 fw. If you still struggle with the camera, let me know. I've seen improvement with battery life and mobile signal, the only let down is netflix wont install from playstore nor playback at full fidelity if I install with apk
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
what file did you flash for the Camera?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Bachtran24:
View attachment 5922171

After I succesfully flashed a bootable fw (XQ-BC72_Customized SEA_61.2.A.0.447 for me), I flash these .sin files from A101SO_SoftBank JP_61.1.E.5.215 right after. The camera problem only rise if you also flash modem_X-FLASH-ALL-4BA8.sin
[Sony Xperia 1 III] crazycolor786:
Hi @Bachtran24 if i understood you correctly then you have installed a Dual XQ-BC72 to your single SIM A101so version and then flashed the modem files and it worked for you?.

Can you please exactly tell which modem files you flashed? in the ROM folder there are 3 modem files.sin.

When you flashed modem.sin filers which ROM folder did you use BC-72 or A101so.

I have the same issues i have updated to global Dual ROM and now my A101so is not getting any signals. looking for your help
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Bachtran24:
Did you see the picture, just flash those 4 from A101SO_SoftBank JP_61.1.E.5.215 folder, delete other. Reply if you cant see the pic, i'll put it in context
[Sony Xperia 1 III] crazycolor786:
thank you for your reply. i can see the picture and got the answer that i should use A101SO folder for secondary flashing. thanks!
[Sony Xperia 1 III] crazycolor786:
Just a short question where did you download A101SO_SoftBank JP_61.1.E.5.215 ROM? as now the updated version is available on xperiafirm.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Shuaib_Ahsan:
is your phone dual sim now ?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Bachtran24:
nah, no hardware for that i think
[Sony Xperia 1 III] FarooqAzam.PK:
Any updates so far as I wanna install dual Sim Android 13 to my SoftBank single Sim A101SO device is it working fine?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] crazycolor786:
yes it works if you cross flash the A101SO modem files correctly. I installed XQ-BC42 Dual SIM Customized Japan on my phone followed by cross flashing with A101SO modem file mentioned earlier in the thread and the single sim works
[Sony Xperia 1 III] FarooqAzam.PK:
So is it worth to upgrade to 13 ?

Can U share your WhatsApp if you don't mind
[Sony Xperia 1 III] crazycolor786:
i would not recommend upgrading. I had android 12 but accidently i installed the Custom UK ROM 13 and the problem started there as i had no way of going back. i had to face many troubles and finally found this solution that is why its is not recommended as it can cause a mess.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] fire310w:
I had the same thing, But I have noticed 4G+ and 5G are not working after even cross flashing. Is that a thing or just for me?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] techyrock:
Greetings folks, for those who have tried this are you experiencing better signals after cross flash? Although I think signals are going to be the same given you are flashing SoftBank files, the upside would be getting rid of bloatware and android 13 what other stuff do you guys appreciate from the crossflash and which things make you miss the old stock android 12
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Garrsett:
Can you make full tutorial? Seems interesting.

NFC still work after cross flashing?
[Samsung Galaxy A54 5G] magikarp288:
I've noticed all images from my new galaxy A54 are blue-ish.

The white balance seems to be off for 300-400K on the cold side.

I haven't seen this being discussed in reviews so I'm wondering if there might be an issue with my unit.

Has anyone else noticed this?
[Samsung Galaxy A54 5G] naXa!:
Green becomes blue in night photos made with my wife's Galaxy A54. I suppose it's caused by the same wrong white balance setting.
[Samsung Galaxy A54 5G] magikarp288:
I noticed its partly because the white balance of the screen itself is a bit on the cold side too and not just because the photos themselves are cold.

Bringing the white balance of the screen a notch to the warm side in settings helps.
[Touch HD General] winwiz:
Hi guys,

I am having some difficulty installing windows media player skins. I have tried a few and when loading them in wmp, I cannot select. Any ideas?
[Touch HD General] TP-Power:
Same problem here.... Any Help? --> Solved

The HTC Touch HD has a WVGA screen. Therefore skins in QVGA or VGA format can not be installed. I installed the Iphone WVGA skin ( http://mylostblog.altervista.org/sk...inal-skins/wmp-skin-005-iphoneipod-touch-wide )..

Extract the rar file and put it in Program Files\Windows Media Player\Foldername\filesyouextracted

You can also use NO folder to load the skin. Just drop them in your WMP folder and it's alright...

Am I right about this? (WVGA skins only)
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Schroeder09:
Is there a way to enable immersive mode on the Pixel 7 pro? Is there any root or Xposed option to do so? I want to enable immersive mode on a per app basis through tasker. This functionality seems to have been lost in Android 13.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] synesthete:
I use the Xposed module "None Display Cutout". After installing it, go to Settings > Developer Options > Display Cutout and set it to "No Display Cutout".

Then I use XposedEdgePro to creat shortcuts to turn it off and on. You can trigger it by gesture, quicksettings or activity shortcut.

I'm not sure what the best way is to set it on a per-app basis.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] innit:
Magisk with LSPosed and App Settings Reborn.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Schroeder09:
Thanks. In the app settings reborn thread here on XDA they're saying it's not compatible with A13 tho.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Schroeder09:
I don't understand the utility in Xposed edge pro. Doesn't it make an annoying half moon circle with different buttons pop out? Each having its own customized function? You're making it execute a small script that is to go into settings tho and activate immersive mode after installing the display cutout option. Is that correct?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] synesthete:
Well, the None Display Cutout module doesn't actually give you immersive mode by itself. It basically just makes your phone ignore the hole-punch camera. Without it, you will have a black section of unused space above the app and camera if you go into immersive mode. So, it just let's you use the full screen.

I just use Xposed Edge Pro, because it offers a working way to go into immersive mode, but you don't actually need to open it after setting it up. You don't need the pie/halfmooon menu. It has an activity that can be called. I have a different custom menu that I set up with another app that calls the XposedEdge Pro shortcut to put the phone into immersive mode. Xposed Edge also lets you add quick settings buttons to hide the status or nav bars.

You could also just set up gestures through Xposed Edge to trigger immersive mode
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Schroeder09:
And this is while using the gesture navigation or are you using the nav bar?

Is this the Xposed module you're using?

NoDisplayCutout

强制应用在刘海/挖控区域中呈现. 主要用于小米Mix4这种挖了孔但又没挖孔的屏下摄像头手机.

modules.lsposed.org

Is it functioning on lsposed 1.8.7, magisk stable 25.2, and android 13? It hasn't had an update since 2021.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] synesthete:
This is the None Display Cutout module that I am using:

https://xdaforums.com/t/module-none-display-cutout-v2.4227537/

Sorry, it is a Magisk module, not an Xposed module.

I use the gesture navigation, but I don't use the XposeEdge gestures. I was just saying that there are different ways of triggering it. There might be some other apps that still, work, but the other old apps that put the device in immersive mode just didn't seem to work anymore. So, Xposed Edge was the only way I could get it working. If all you care about is getting rid of of the gesture pill at the bottom, and don't want to hide the status bar, there is a mod you can use with Substratum Lite.

You mentioned using Tasker. Well, I just looked in Tasker and it does give you the option to call an App Shortcut from Xposed Edge Pro. I sort of got per-app immersive working with Tasker.

To test it try this:

1. Press the + button to add new profile and select "Application"

2. Select all apps that you want to be in immersive mode

3. For you task, select App > Shortcut > Xposed Edge Pro > Hide Status Bar > Turn On.

4. Do the same thing as above, but select Hide Navigation Bar.

At this point it should trigger it when you open one of those apps that you specified. The main issue is that it persists if you go to any other app. So then you might need to create an inverse version of the profile and tasks above, to turn it off for every other app, including your launcher. There is about a quarter second delay for the immersive to turn on when you switch to a new app, though.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] innit:
It works on A13. I've been using it since day one on Pixel 7 Pro. Immersive mode, custom dpi and font size work. Only few apps are incompatible (Google Photos, Files, Recorder).

Screenshots:

1. Chrome with immersive mode enabled.

2. ES File Explorer with immersive mode and custom dpi.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Bxperiaz3:
I flashed a zip that makes my status bar 1px so the notification pull-down gesture still works but the screen is basically stretched to the top of the phone. Works perfectly
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Schroeder09:
Is it a magisk module?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Bxperiaz3:
Yes,someone made it for me
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] JonnyG1980:
Hi, a bit late to the party here but I've just fallen into the trap of no more immersive mode after getting an upgraded A12 car headunit after my old A10 had some issues.

I'm interested in trying to solve the problem with XposedEdgePro (after failing with numerous other apps and modules).

I'm unsure if it's changed since the last post in this thread but I'm now seeing that purchasing XEP via Playstore isn't advised (see below link) but I can't seem to find another option.

Could you give me some advice on where to find and whether it is just a module rather than an APK these day please?

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] aiueo_waon:
As stated above, I just finished installing lineageOS using TWRP on my S10+, but I got too hasty since I said yes when TWRP asked me to install the app after it finished.

Now my phone is stuck on the TWRP splash screen, and I can't enter recovery mode or download mode.(I can turn if off briefly when I hold the power and volume down button, but that's it)

Did I just brick my phone?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Rouvster:
I j stalled APKure and always get an annoying notification saying this app sucks and need to be uninstalled.

I disabled play Protect but still got the warnings...

Anyone has an idea on how to create exceptions for that bloody thing ?

Google only indicates to disable okay Protect (which I did but still getting the notifications...)

Thx
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] blackhawk:
Disable Playstore. Turning off Google play Services may also work as Playstore is a dependency.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Rouvster:
Thanx, I disabled all notifications, guess this might do the trick as well since I use play store for everything except the apps you need to pay
[Nothing Phone 1] rogerrulez:
Okay so, I did root and downgraded to acquire call recording and root. Then I upgrading using the fastboot method. Locked up the critical partition but left the bootloader unlocked.

There is an update for the 2.5.3 I'm on but I cannot apply it through the official update method or the dialer method !

I've flashed both partitions with the same ROM. It is the global version I have.

What am I missing here ?

Thanks in advance.
[Nothing Phone 1] xtcislove:
Try adb sideload

Try to remove root before update
[Nothing Phone 1] rogerrulez:
So like, no one knows ?
[Nothing Phone 1] rogerrulez:
I don't have root and all partitions are locked.

I can try adb sideload again but I have my doubts.

I need a way to completely flash and start over I think. This phone is weird.

"I need a way to completely flash and start over I think. This phone is weird."

https://xdaforums.com/t/how-to-unbrick-nothing-phone-1-fastboot-bootloop.4501439/

Follow this guide and in the end relock the bootloader if you like. I did this several times and i get normal otas after this.

[Nothing Phone 1] xtcislove:
Which two batch files? They will flash the super.img and ALL other partitions. The code i posted will flash BOTH slots.

You need a way to completely flash and start over. This is the way.
[Nothing Phone 1] rogerrulez:
Correct. I need to start over.
[Nothing Phone 1] xtcislove:
So whats the problem now?

1. Unlock Bootloader

2. Flash super.img

3. Flash fastboot rom to both slots.

4. Relockk bootloader or boot to android.
[Nothing Phone 1] rogerrulez:
Thanks. Done that. many times actually. lol
[Nothing Phone 1] xtcislove:
And you installed all updates normaly with system updates or did you install anything manually?
[Nothing Phone 1] rogerrulez:
Okay. Thanks man.
[Nothing Phone 1] rogerrulez:
No ! My phone is turned off. I can't do any updates.
[Nothing Phone 1] xtcislove:

[Nothing Phone 1] rogerrulez:
Well dude. I'm flashing fast boot images. And I can't update from there.So yeah, wtf do I do ! ?
[Nothing Phone 1] fackstrot:
I flashed everything as described above, but I still have an error installing OTA, "installation problem" I don’t know what to do anymore, I first flashed super.img then flashed the firmware in both slots, then blocked the bootloader, then turned off the factory unlock and made a wipe , did not help
[Nothing Phone 1] rogerrulez:
Me too I think the phone is a dud..

Case closed.
[Nothing Phone 1] xtcislove:
You flashed 1.1.4 and updated to 1.5.3 if i read right. So you did some updates.

You did them manually or from system?
[Nothing Phone 1] fackstrot:
I tried all the methods that I found here, nothing helps, OTA gives an error ... nonsense .. stay on the custom for now?
[Nothing Phone 1] xtcislove:
You could install 1.5.3 as fastboot rom. That would be the latest update.

If you sideload the ota via adb in recovery it gives you the error it produces.

The fastboot roms with super.img are the saving grace for nothing 1 users.

You could try to reboot to edl and use the edl tool too but i dont see the difference to a fastboot rom.

OTA fails usually happen from wrong downloads on this phone.
[Nothing Phone 1] fackstrot:
I understand that I can flash the latest version into a fastboot, but I would like to get working OTA updates so that they come as expected and installed
[Nothing Phone 1] xtcislove:
And if you go back to for example 1.1.3 or 1.1.4 you dont get updates?

Do you try ot install them manually?

You are the first 2 people who dont get ota updates and i need to shoot in the dark because you only say "it does not work". You are not specific, you dont tell what errors you get.

This problem is fixable but not like this.
[Nothing Phone 1] fackstrot:
I tried rolling back to 1.1.7, the update is of course displayed, but during installation it gives an error, if you put 1.5 beta in manual mode, it will give error 20 at the end.
[Nothing Phone 1] fackstrot:
Now I have installed 1.5.3 in fastboot, but I think when the next update will be, it will also be downloaded but not installed ....
[Nothing Phone 1] xtcislove:
You tried rolling back? This means you not rolled back?

Which error? Did you try to update from 1.1.7 via adb sideload from recovery? (because the recovery gives you a better idea of what is not working)

So you really went back to 1.1.4 or 1.1.3 with super.img and fastboot rom as i described above?

"I tried rolling back to 1.1.7" This means to me, you did not rollback like described above.
[Nothing Phone 1] fackstrot:
Yes, I rolled back to 1.1.7, I write through a translator and apparently sometimes it misfires. I installed 1.1.7, an update arrived, downloaded but not installed, installation error. Then I decided to install through the dialer, it took a long time but at the end there was an error 20. Simply put, after returning from custom, I lost the opportunity to use OTA ... although I installed the stock according to the rules and closed the boot
[Nothing Phone 1] xtcislove:
You rolled back with an super.img to 1.1.7 on BOTH slots?

Because the ota usually installs in the not active slot and if not both slots are one the same version you maybe get errors. So i would suggest to go back to 1.1.3 or 1.1.4 with the according super.img on BOTH slots (you only need to install the super.img once because it does not work otherwise). And after this i bet you get everything working as expected.
[Nothing Phone 1] fackstrot:
I flashed super.img simply, and then the firmware in each of the slots in A and B
[Nothing Phone 1] xtcislove:
with 1.1.7 or with the latest 1.5.3?

You made sure to flash the right region? Global or EEA?
[Nothing Phone 1] fackstrot:
I installed all the firmware I tried using this method. I took the firmware on reindex, we don’t already have division into regions. I first flashed the super img file, then the firmware in both slots, then the bootloader block and the critical block, then the boot block, start, turn off the factory unlock and wipe, the OTA result arrives immediately when setting up the device but is not installed
[Nothing Phone 1] xtcislove:
You can try to download the ota and sideload it in recovery, the recovery gives you a better understanding of what went wrong. You dont need bootloader unlock or root for this to work.

Do you get the error on every ota? So you cant update from 1.1.7 upwards?
