[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] wojtaszz:
ehhh,,

>Checking device compatibility

This ROM only supports G530X variants.

I'm on g530fz
[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] katruisya:
X means all variants so fz is supported
[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] wojtaszz:

Also do u know how to fix camera? Replacing libs doesnt work, but i need a proper boot.img and idk how to make one
[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] wojtaszz:
I think that's a kernel issue.
[General Questions and Answers] hansknec:
Rekkie smart snow goggles can display speed, altitude, and location of buddies through a heads up display (HUD). They cost $350. I have an old Amazfit smartwatch that can display Altitude and I stuck it up on my helmet and held a lens in front of it and found that I can see the watch clearly if I look up and to the right. It isn't really a HUD, but close enough. This is 2017 technology and I'm wondering if there is a newer "cheap" smartwatch that has a GPS inside that can be customized to create a screen that would only show GPS ground speed and altitude. The custom ROM would also need to be able to keep the backlight on indefinitely for about 2 hours. It is true that I could do all of this with discrete components of Microcontroller, OLED display, and GPS module, but it is probably cheaper to do it with a cheap smartwatch if there is one that has code that is open.

i was alerted that this rom was not visible to pixel 7 pro cheetah users. i have one thread that takes care of both pixel 7 and pixel pro, panther and cheetah respectively so im not wasting forum space.

Passkey. Being brought to you by the biggest data miners and trackers (after the CCP) on the planet. What could go wrong?

No thanks.
[Off-topic] ethical_haquer:
Same here. You use Epoch Times?
[Off-topic] blackhawk:
Among others. Fox died in Nov 2000 right before my eyes.

Gmail and Gmaps are the only google apps I voluntarily use. May have to fix that. Both are a pain.

Give Google enough time and they will either discontinue the app or "improve" it until it's near useless. Gmail's zenith was 12 years ago. Look at Android... it's more Apple than Android at this point. Still running Android 9 and 10, still use expandable storage. Google is following the MS role model as well, cloud everything. You'll own nothing and be happy, etc.
[Off-topic] ethical_haquer:
I was just wondering because I use Epoch Times as well. But really, you still use Gmail and Gmaps? :) I used to use Gmail, but switched to Proton. As for Gmaps, I am currently using Organic Maps, which I have found to be the best open-source alternative. It works great, but is only really missing traffic.

Well, at it's core Google is an advertising company. So they don't really need to really improve their "free" services, they just need to be the most popular choice. I mean, how do people even make themselves believe that Google's services are really free. No, they make money off your data, which they use for advertisements (among other things). As for Android, it's really a clever idea. Make an "open-source" OS to compete with iOS, and then make sure that your proprietary apps come pre-installed and are un-removable. Although I will say that compared to Apple, Android is way better. I know because I used to use Apple devices before coming to Android. My profile banner shows the checkra1n logo

as it jailbreaks an iPad. I could go on and on about Apple... :)

Yes, that's what all Big Tech are doing, making it so you rely on them to access stuff you "own". Just like DRM.

If your interested in privacy I've invited you to a conversation I just started with @Privacydroid. Nice talking with you!
[Off-topic] TheMystic:
This is an incorrect way of presenting facts in this case.

If they are providing cloud services, you have a choice to use/ not use them. They have setup the required infrastructure to provide the service you need. Relying on them for stuff you own is entirely your decision.

But when it comes to the kind of stuff that Apple does with its hardware (for which an absurd bill like Right to Repair is being formulated; absurdity here refers to the need for such a bill), your statement is totally applicable. This is true for pretty much all large corporations that make just about anything from electronics, cars, farm equipment, etc.

When it comes to physical stuff that you have paid for, no maker has the right to determine how you use it and what you do to it, once sold. But that's not what is happening.

When it comes to data collection, it is not just the corporations that are collecting data. They are just an intermediary working for a much larger, sinister, state sponsored entity, which certainly isn't the CCP.
[Touch HD General] dcoales:
I recently installed GPRS Traffic monitor which shows me how much traffic is passing over my HSDPA connection and I noticed something strange.

Sometimes when I have a solid wifi connection my HSDPA traffic figures shoot up while I'm browsing. I discover that the reason for this is that in settings->connections->connections advanced->networks the default connection for applications has been set to be "Contract WAP" even though I had previously specifically set it to "My Work Network".

OK, so I change this setting back to be "My work network" and Opera starts using the wifi in preference to HSDPA and only switches to HSDPA when the wifi is no longer available. Perfect.

Except that a few hours later I notice that the HSDPA traffic is shooting up again even though I have a strong wifi connection. I go back and check the settings and the default connection has reverted to "Contract WAP". I didn't do this - it happened automatically.

This has been happening for a while now and I think the cause may be the crappy cell reception where i live. Occasionally the phone loses the signal from Vodafone but a few seconds later gets it again and re-registers with the network automatically (I know this happens because if I turn off auto-network-selection I keep getting asked to select my network). My suspicion is that this re-registering is resetting my default network connection.

This may also be why occasionally I seem to lose my 3G connection settings and have to run the connection setup wizard again.

This is really annoying me because I have to keep checking the settings before any major browsing session to ensure I don't blow my monthly 3G bandwith.

Does anyone have any experience of this problem or advice on how to fix it.

Cheers,

David
[Magisk] n0stycat:
I recently installed magisk and everything was working fine.

However after enabling Zygisk phone bootloads and i dont know how to fix it / uninstall?

I tried "adb wait-for-device shell magisk --remove-modules" but it didnt help. I also tried renaming magisk.zip into uninstall.zip and installing it, however i get an error saying "cant access /data, please uninstall with the Magisk app".

Can someone point me in the right direction.

I have Xiaomi Redmi note 9, M2003J15SC, v13.0.2.0.sjomixm, android 12, miui 13 + installed Magisk Manager (last version), but Magisk itself is 25.0 (couldnt update it through manager), i have access to twrp, fastboot, adb.
[Magisk] surajpai524:
Just boot to safe mode one and do a normal boot and it will disable Magisk.
[Magisk] n0stycat:
Safe mode didn't help. I guess it wasnt just a problem with Magisk / Zygisk, since i had troubles with twrp backup (createtarfork() process ended with error 255).

And in the end it corrupted my restore and only fastboot was working.

After that (and a lot of hours of googling and trying different methods) i followed how to fix a bricked Redmi note 9 and its now working fine.

(labeled r aux in and l aux in). Audio from aux isn’t playing. Dont have any app, that says mp3 player, I tried AVIN app and also not playing. I red smh about switching off my front camera, but i don’t even have this feature on my unit. Need to solve this, im always playing song thru phone, im not really radio or SD card guy. I’ve been also looking to buy newer unit or some 3rd party carplay box, bcs feel like my unit is really old. Attaching some specs photos. (Car - Passat b6). Thx in advance guys :)
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] jaizzie1337:
UPDATE: I have camera mode, but i have just CAN DIP switch off/on for switching between unit media and camera video. (Turned off, but doesnt work also) When I open AVIN app there is just black screen with exclamation mark in yellow triangle. Nothing happening, nor audio playing.

[Android General] gkarkala:
Today I got red X Fold 2 from Giztop. Ordered on Apr 29, Shipped on May 3, received via DHL to California May 5. Very satisfied with the shipping.

Unboxing: Nice box, it came up with 120w charger, type C cable and the back protector (color matched). I am not sure why the front screen case is not included. First I thought it is missing for me, then I checked YouTube and every unboxing videos show only the back protector case.

Phone was nicely packaged.

Software/Initial install: Box was opened to install Play Store I guess. Unfortunately I was not able to login to google account. So I decided to a complete reset. After the reset, I moved all the apps/data from Samsung Fold 3 to Vivo using the inbuilt transfer tool. I am pleasantly surprised on how smooth that process was. Within few minutes, i transferred 29GB worth of apps/data. So far so good. Also updated to the latest firmware: PD2266_A_13.0.12.3.W1 with April security update.

After the initial setup, I installed my USMoible (Verizon MVNO) sim card. Phone complained that the SIM is not from China and 5G will not work! I picked one of the predefined APN and up and running on 4G HD. Had problem receiving and making phone calls. Rebooted phone few times and now I am able to make calls and getting SMS.

Registered for Vivo account using my US number. Opened the Vivo app, installed Gmail app. This installed all the google services and I was able to access play store. I uninstalled most of the pre installed china apps using the Vivo store app. No problems so far, as I left anything that says Vivo.

I was able to modify battery management settings to get notifications to work for most of my applications. I cannot find auto start settings, but so far I am getting the notifications even though phone screen is turned off. Will see how it goes.

I have not tested the camera yet as I am still figuring out all the settings of the phone.

Hardware: Sold, much better than Samsung Fold 3. I was so frustrated with the narrow cover screen of Fold 3. Very painful to type. Vivo is so nice. Nice cover and inner screens. Both screens have screen protectors, and I DO see the crease when I see the inner screen at an angle. Not as bad as Fold 3 though. Speakerphone is okay, and not great.

Also this phone has the slider button to mute the phone. I did not expect this. This is my first Vivo phone.

I will update my post once I use the phone more. Let me know if you want to me test/verify anything.
[Android General] Dalecious1:
I'm just really curious if there's a way that I can still use the outer screen even when it's unfolded? Can I open and run apps on the outer screen when it's unfolded?

On the Samsung Fold it has a work around and I can do that. I was wondering if it's the same on the Vivo Fold.

Thanks.
[Android General] gkarkala:
Just tried and it does not work.
[Android General] cleverpro:
You can, there's an option called "lock secondary screen display" in the drop down menu. It's a stock function, no need to install anything

I do not see that option. Nice to have that feature though.

[Android General] gkarkala:
Also, I was able to setup Nova as the default launcher!!! I created the vivo account, and then I can use Nova. All gestures work perfectly.

I also needed to change the font to an another installed one, as the default font has issues displaying English chars. Long space after apostrophe shows up.
[Android General] lawtq:
We have it. Also had the vivo X fold plus in the past.

Feels slightly thinner and slightly lighter. Not by much at all unfortunately, it's still too damn heavy, that weight is a pain in the rear!

Looks much better and that inner screen is noticeably better and brighter. Build quality definitely improved.

Ordered Friday from wondaMobile and it was delivered on Monday. 3 says to UK, well done dhl express and amazing as always from wondaMobile!

Battery life immediately better, noticeable straight away, but that external screen annoyingly only goes as low as 60Hz, would have loved a proper LTPO external screen to save battery. Sigh. Inner screen will go down to 1Hz depending on what brightness level it's on and it's just amazing, really is!

Nothing needs to be said about the 8 gen 2, it's a resounding success.

To summarize if you've come from a X fold plus it's just not a big enough upgrade to bother with. Both screens are really lovely though, battery life is OK, should have been better, bigger battery and LTPO external screen needed! That's always more important than 120w fast charging which will just age that battery faster.

Torn, will we keep it? might not 🤔 but if you've never had a fold, this is the best from any company so far, I'm my opinion, after having the honor magic V, z fold 4, mix fold 1&2,
[Android General] d.cortez:
Any stylus support? Also, did you have to create a Vivo account in order to get the okay store to work? In on the fence, and after 3 Fold devices with a narrow front screen, I'm ready for a change. Thanks for taking time to read and respond to my post.
[Android General] gkarkala:
No pen support. I tried fold 3 pen on both the inner and outer screens but no go.

I created the vivo account using my US phone number during the initial setup and it worked just fine. I get the SMS couple of times during this setup.

While changing the launcher, it asks you to enter the Vivo account password to confirm. Once done I was able to able use Nova without any issues. Note that Nova does not support inner screen properly. It just blows up the icons and widgets of the home screen to fit the inner screen and it looks ugly. I may try a different launcher or go back to the Vivo one.

Outstanding issues:

1. MMS not working with USMobile. Tried different APNs but still no go.

2. Whatsapp audio calls cuts out every min for about 5-6 seconds. This is with ear speaker, speakerphone and Bluetooth. This is also with screen on. I had similar issues with OnePlus 9/10 US versions, but had no issues with Samsung. Very annoying.

3. Google timeline does not work, but it is not a big deal for me.

Very nice hardware compared to Samsung Fold 3, but software is not polished.
[Android General] ycats:
I have a ZFold4 (T-Mobile)..............if I were to get the Vivo X Fold 2, what initial issues would or should I expect?
[Android General] gkarkala:
Almost the same as mine! check my review comments. I came from Fold 3. Love the Vivo hardware, but on the software side, need to spend lots of time tweaking the settings/applications to make it work the way US phones work. Getting notifications consistently from apps is challenging. Google maps timeline does not work as well as Android Auto. TMobile 5G works.

No case available anywhere in US. The one included with the phone only has the back plate and the front screen/sides are fully exposed. I ordered one from China via ebay.

Can uninstall most of the preinstalled apps, but the V-Store (Vivo's version of app store) is completely Chinese. Also some pop up message are completely in Chinese including the button labels.

If you do not want to tinker or do not have time to spend to do the tweaks, I do not recommend this.
[Android General] ycats:
ugh about Android Auto, since I got a new car three months ago that uses it
[Android General] CarlnTheCity:
I received my x fold 2 today and I set up nova, but it constantly keeps reverting to the original launcher...any ideas?
[Android General] gkarkala:
Did you setup vivo account?

under settings look for "Allow the launcher to be replaced" option and select it. If you have the Nova account, it will ask you for the password. After this...

open Nova. There will be a red banner at the top of the nova app asking you to set it as default. Follow the directions.
[Android General] CarlnTheCity:
Yes did all that set nova as the default and when you hit home it keeps going back to the system launcher

Set up my vivo account

Allow the launcher to be replaced

Opened nova and set as default

Keeps going back to the system launcher 😞
[Android General] Sanparuzu:
how is multi tasking on the device? I generally like to play a game and have a video in the corner. Can you see how small you are able to shrink a YouTube window. And if clicking the button to make YouTube video while floating full screen makes it turn into a mini video player

[Android General] gkarkala:
Multi tasking works great. I have the same use case. You tube floating window can be placed anywhere but cannot shrink the window. If I click the button on the floating window, it just opens YouTube app in full screen.
[Android General] Sanparuzu:
that's good to know! Mine gets in Wednesday so excited!

Are you able to use icon packs on the default launcher?

And change the multi tasking spacing like Samsung but not as extreme
[Android General] gkarkala:
I resolved Whatsapp call cutting off every few mins. I excluded Whatsapp app from Adguard and it resolved the issue for now.

The new update is pretty stable and I am getting great battery perf.

Now if Nova can fix the inner screen icon blowing up issue, this will be a keeper.

I am an unable to remove com.vivo.pem via adb. Now it is a system app. With the earlier fold, please fixed the notifications issue by removing this app.
[Android General] gkarkala:
I changed icons with the default launcher without any issues. There are too many customizations with icons, but all instructions are in Chinese! That is why I switched to Nova.

Multi tasking is similar to Samsung. Sometimes better (3 finger swipe to open multiple windows), sometimes painful (floating screen).

you have the T-Mobile SIM and the one of the MVNOs? If so, Vivo automatically shows the list of "popular" APNs and picks one.

If you still have issues, use this
