[Sony Xperia 1 III] Johnnycazh:
@Sakuu cool cool. And, one last question... :) Do you guys have ota updates for this? or have to flash a zip everytime from my laptop 🥲
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Sakuu:
No OTA is for official only, if someone wants to do that then yeah you could get OTA but for now every update you reboot into recovery and you sideload the new zip (and install magisk if you want)
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Johnnycazh:
:((( but i dont lose anything when i update via twrp, right? Sorry for all these (stupid maybe) questions
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Sakuu:
As I said above, depends on what's actually being updated if it's a major upgrade like 13 > 14 clean flash is required or if hardware repo is updated (the stuff that lets you enable creator mode and mess with battery care) then you need to clean flash since XperiaParts will get all messed up...
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Johnnycazh:
eh, good. Now i understood. Thanks a lot :) gonna flash it, cuz i want better battery and performance
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Johnnycazh:
@Sakuu what about the resolution? is it still 4K, or i can change it(w/out root)?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Sakuu:
Seems like that option is not in CherishOS only in riceDroid...
[Sony Xperia 1 III] k3lwin:
I installed it and found some minor bugs:

-Shutter button long press doesn't launch camera and I can't find any setting that could enable it. It works within Camera Pro though.

-Assistant button is hardwired, well, to Assistant, with no built-in way to change it. Could be remapped with this guide, but that's an extra step.

-Smart Pixels don't work. Not a big deal, it's more of a gimmick.

I'm yet to install my usual apps and copy my data, some more bugs might emerge further down the road. But overall seems like an enjoyable experience!
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Sakuu:
- Search for a "Buttons" section and you should be able to fix cam button and remap assistant button

- ROM issue, actual display supports it but Cherish source is very buggy (if you read what i posted in the 2nd post)
[Sony Xperia 1 III] k3lwin:
Found Buttons section in Cherish Settings, but there are no hardware buttons I can configure apart from volume rocker.

Spoiler content hidden.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] FiDra:
Camera buttons does not work on most custom roms, so live with it, you can activate photo pro by click power button twice. Camera button does work on RiceDroid, but it is not as what I expected, it launchs camera app everytime after you long press on it despite the camera is running.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] k3lwin:
Well, I solved it with an app. Come on, reading keycodes and performing actions is not that hard, I just wish it was handled with built-in rom tools rather than having to install an app and have its background service constantly running. Key Mapper even allows adding constraints so app would not launch again if it's already in foreground.

I understand we are not able to flash any custom kernel since there are none available with this device having limited dev support.

However, if rooted can we change settings with a kernel manager with the CPU and GPU? Installed EX Kernel Manger and set the CPU governor to "performance" but not seeing any speed or performance increases
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] fuzzychicken:
Hello folks,

In the market for a new phone from OnePlus 6. Lack of 5G is making me miss loads of calls, even though the phone is perfectly fine and I really like it, its time to move on.

My budget is around $300. I am considering pre-owned Pixel 6 pro. I know Pixel 6 series had issues when they came out. I don't know if they are fixed now and worth taking a look.

I would like to know what you do not like about Pixel 6 pro. Other than clean android, I would like best camera I can buy at $300 range.

I took a look at OnePlus 9 pro. Its good too, but leaning towards Pixel for camera.

Thanks in advance.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] NippleSauce:
Do you have a set date that you have to upgrade before? If not, then I would wait around for Google's next event in the beginning of May.

At that point in time, they'll presumably announce their upcoming phone(s) and may release their new Pixel 7A device (which is the more affordable Pixel variant that still has a good number of attractive features - like the photo processing to have it take great pictures)!

I forget what the starting price is for the Pixel A variant phones - but I think they generally start around $400-$450 USD.

Anyway, I would steer clear of the Pixel 6 series. The most applicable-to-your-scenario issue that the 6 series faced was poor phone service! Those model Pixel phones were using an older, known-to-be-problematic modem. Essentially, they would quickly chew through your phone's battery and would consistently cause phone service drops =/. But, I haven't had the same issue with my Pixel 7 Pro (since it has a new modem).

Of course, I'm not sure which features from the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro will be left out of the Pixel 7A. But, we'll just have to wait until that Google event occurs in May to find out!
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] mfinlay04:
Radio/modem is the only issues. It's legit terrible and deserves all the hate it gets. The rest of the phone is great.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
I admit I see the connection shuffling between 5G and LTE a bit more often than I like. Fortunately, as a Straight Talk customer I'm on Verizon's network. While Verizon's bootloader locking policy is absolute s*** and they deserve all the hate they get for that, their network is better than AT&T or T-Mobile. I tend to have signal where my roommates with their OnePlus and Samsung phones have none.

TL;DR: A good network can compensate for a bad radio/modem.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] mfinlay04:
My issue is the phone has great service, but I get an exclamation mark in the data icon and it refuses to connect. View attachment 5886273
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] AlDollaz:
My issue would be 5G eats an absurd amount of battery.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] spinoza23:
Wifi connection sucks...!!!

Battery life is bad

Signal strength is really poor
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] fuzzychicken:
THANK YOU, folks. You guys saved me from future headache. With these issues, I can not use Pixel 6 series. I am looking to buy ASAP. Maybe I will take a look at Galaxy S20 series.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] mfinlay04:
I would look at the OnePlus 9 pro. Great community support, and 1+1 phones are great. You can flash a pixel ROM, and get majority of the pixel exclusive features.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] w_tapper:
mine are: signal dropping (thanks vodafone), overheating and bad battery life
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] vip57:
Wifi connection sucks...!!!

Battery life is bad

Signal strength is really poor

the same as the person above mention

but the pixel 6 pro still a good phone i see it's better than s20 ultra and oneplus 9 for the price range
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] D0n Quix0te:
If i was in place of you i would go for the oneplus 9 pro right away. pixel 6 pro has a mediocre battery life complimented by its painfully slow charging time. oneplus 9 pro has 65w fast charging which is extremely useful in real life.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Fast charging also heats up the battery, reducing longevity. I'm still using my Pixel 2XL charger, which is only 18W, and even with beefier chargers available I still prefer it because it doesn't heat the battery while doing its job.
[Device Repair] Mr Pants:
Hi!

My Fairphone 4 sadly took a bath in a lake a few months back.

After drying it up power button still vibrates when turning it on/off but screen is dead.

I got it hooked up to a PC monitor using a usb-c cable and was able to login by entering pin using the PC keyboard attached to the monitor. After happily taking backups of pics of my kid that I thought were lost forever I thought to myself:

"Great! I'll just need to replace the display!"

Ordered a new display and replaced it (Kinda surprised by how easy it was). Pretty sure I was able to snap the cable in place correctly. However, display still won't turn on after replacement! (Tried twice)

Dear experts, am I screwed? :)

Or is there anything else I might try?
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
On one of my phones, I don't see the 'Hide keyboard' button. Does anyone know how to enable this?

View attachment 5885829
[General Questions and Answers] Dayuser:
You see it only if you are using gestures. You don't see it if you use navigation buttons.
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
I'm using Gestures only. But it is not showing up.
[General Questions and Answers] Dayuser:
What phone?
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
I found out the problem. There is the 'Hide bottom bar' option which was enabled. When I disable the option, the hide keyboard option shows up.

With the 'Hide bottom bar' disabled, there is empty space at the bottom which otherwise would be occupied by the navigation bar (if using navigation buttons).

I'm using iQOO Neo 6.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] willyy1991:
nah.. i think whe should wait for the windows 7 emulator for the HTC Touch Diamond!

Dosbox.

Try dosbox but I wouldn't waste your time you'll be waiting an age for windows 95 to load. Or cheat and run RDP on the phone through Wifi. It's as good as you'll get and you can run Vista and XP on your phone.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Martinhdk:

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] berndbb:
Hello,

for my S8 I found after a long search a ROM called "Hades", which was a mod of Samsung firmwares. Since Lineage & Co won't support VOLTE as far as I understood, I wondered if there is something similar for this device, meaning a custom (debloated) ROM which supports VOLTE?

It doesn't need to be the newest version of Android of course.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] TheMadScientist:
Searching in the S10 plus threads would be your best bet But most non stock based roms do not have support for volte could be different for exynos as I am used to qualcomm
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] berndbb:
Thanks for your reply.

My searches there led so far to nothing. I guess If I give that device a try, I stay with debloating it via adb and that's it.

Maybe in this section I'll find something. But I am still missing the great picture.

But your information is only for the XORO satelite receiver. Mine is cable-tv receiver (DVB-C).

You can ask them in the forum for DVB-T2 files. I think that I saw files for all Xoro models, but can not find them now for you (it is not easy to find things in other language even with google translator). :)

Yes, you can use any image for Xoro 260.

They are all the same, the difference is the TV application (one version TV for T/C and another for SAT).

I didn't try it yet, but it should be possible to copy that application from one version and paste it to another.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] DP FH:
Hello, my poco x3 nfc (surya) bootloops and i'm very desperate.

I tried MIUI 13.0.1.0, NitrogenOS and PixelOS but they all show the poco logo , phone vibrates, after a few seconds it reboots.

Yes I obviously did format data and MIUI is the fastboot ROM, which flashes all partitions.

What do I do? TWRP works.

[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] DP FH:
Luckily I had an EFS backup laying around
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] DP FH:
Ok so postmortem of the incident:

I restored a TWRP backup from a corrupted microSD without enabling digest verification. Obviously, this destroyed eveything on the phone, the most two important stuff being the bootloader and the EFS.

For the first one I had to pay a guy on Telegram to flash with EDL (thank you xiaomi for this very good policy).

For the second one I very luckily had, as written above, a working TWRP backup.

The only other way to restore the IMEIs is to use a Qualcomm tool, but you need to have a device-specific .qcn file (and the associated programs to change imeis in file and restore)

I couldn't find it on the Internet (for free - there are websites asking 40 USD for it!), so I decided to share my .qcn here for free.

Hai guys, My pixel 7 portrait mode doesn't blur background. It was working fine when i got it around 3-4 months ago but now it's not working. My camera app is updated to latest version 8.8.224.520435764.11.

Seems like camera is taking photos in normal mode even when portrait is selected as we can see hair separation is perfect. I have attached the images with red one not edit and taken as portrait one, green one is edited manually with background blur.

This is only happening on main rear camera. Selfie portrait works fine

Any idea on how to solve this?

Hello guys, As the title say I want to buy cheap 3d printer and found this one on aliexpress - https://aliexpress.com/e/_DBj9zF7

What do you think about quality? What about price? Thanks guys, every suggestion is wellcome!
[3D Printers] buenso80:
@Nikson4200 . Sorry for the late reply , but I did not realize that we´ve gotten a 3d printing section in here, untill now..

Okay, so I have this printer myself, and It´s a fabulous little printer, with direct drive .

The only drawback , is the limited size of the buildplate (180x180mm) . If you plan on printing covers for bigger phones, you will probably miss 5-10mm extra of build plate space.

Kingroon has a Pro model, where the buildplate is 200x200mm. It´s more expensive though.

So much depends on , how tight your budget is, and the size of items you plan on printing.

On the plus side: The smaller the bed/buildplate, the less power consumption

[3D Printers] Techyman3D:
Which Cheap 3D Printer there is many printers for Sale on the WWW. I didnt buy stuff on Ali because long delivery time to my Country.

Ive startet with my First Printer it was a ANET A8 DIY Kit for 99 Euro in 2020 from Amazon.

This printer was a learning session because i got it as wood Frame building not in Acryl Parts. It was very funny because it shakes arround the frame and the Print looking usable but not very good with the new Acryl parts a Year later they solved a issue with the shaking and print Quality. Its good to learn to mount a whole printer from Parts then you can easier figure out when later comes to problems =)

Now i have some more Printers and a self Build from Parts and did fix the Marlin firmware on my own with Arduino. Not every Printer is the same Settings even you have the same Model its all time to learn the Settings and test to get good results out of the print.If you change the Nozzle Size from 0.4 to 0.6 the prints are diffrent looking.

So you see you can make many possible but always work with a cheap Printer.Its up to you how many you spend for a good one.

My Printers:

Anet A8 99Euro (pla)

XVico X5 129Euro (pla,petg)

Geeetech A10M 169 euro (pla,petg)

Creality Ender 3 V2 Neo 199 Euro (pla,petg,asa)

Sunlu S8 279Euro (stay on standby)

Tronxy X5sa 599Euro (asa )

No Printer is perfect and its on you to handle issues and fix it and look maybe youtube videos to find out which printer Suits for the Jobs that they have to print =)
