[Introductions] Skaaaq:
I started tinkering my phone since 2014 with my live with Walkman from sony erricson. it still work but battery is weak.

I bought a xiaomi mi5 in 2017 because I saw that it was officialy supported by lineage.

During shipping I saw a video from jerryrigeverything was concerned by the durability of the phone.

First thing I do is remove the boot locker to install custom rom.

It still my daily phone and I dragged the thing in my pocket under the car many time, had to replace the battery once.

While I never post before today, this community help me a lot with my phones.

Thank you very much.

[Google Chromecast] DCMojo:
Hello! Today I'm going to do a basic write-up to explain how to disable Google's stock launcher on the 2023 version of the chromecast and use any custom 3rd party launcher.

Thing's Needed

1x Google Chromecast (Normal or 4k) 2023

1x Android Phone

Or

1x Computer.

Step One.

Setup Your Chromecast as normal, until you reach the home screen.

Navigate to Settings, System, About,

Highlight Android TV OS Build and click it 5-7 time's until you see "You are now a developer"

Go back to System, Scroll down until you see Developer Settings, Go to USB Debugging and Enable it.

Next

Go to Network Tab and Highlight your wifi, Take note of the I.P Address listed.

On Phone or Computer.

Download ADB Toolkit (Computer: Adb) (Android: ADB Shell)

Run the command

Adb connect 1.1.1.1

Replace the 1.1.1.1 with the ip listed on your Chrome TV

Example: Adb connect 192.168.1.24

A Prompt should appear on your TV asking to allow debugging, Check the always allow box and then click allow, Run the command again.

To make sure your connected,

Run the Command

adb devices

You should see the IP of your chrome cast.

Now the fun part. Find a 3rd party launcher. I will put a few you can download from the play store directly on your Chromecast.

FLauncher (Google Playstore)

ATVLauncher (Google PlayStore

Now here is the important part, If you want to use something such as Wolf Launcher or Leanback, You need to install it via adb. Download it to either your PC or Android and Run the command

adb install example.apk

Important, Make sure your adb prompt is running in the directory of the location the apk is located, To do this simply run the command

cd C:\Users\REDACTED\Downloads

Then run the command.

Disabling Stock Google Launcher,

Now that we have a 3rd party launcher installed, The fun part to making it your primary launcher is easy, Simply run these 2 adb commands

adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.google.android.apps.tv.launcherx

adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.google.android.tungsten.setupwraith

That's it, Now pressing the home button should open a menu to select your new launcher,

Simply Profit.
[Google Chromecast] DCMojo:
If you browse the XDA forums you find multiple thread's like this, Aswell as misinformation about the post 2021 models having adb disabled, I simply was trying to help.
[Google Chromecast] SnuggP:
@DCMojo Thank You
[Google Chromecast] Roelosaurus:
With LM (ATV) you can do this with just the Chromecast.
[Google Chromecast] Ajayssahu:
Incase you need to enable Stock Launcher Again use below

1. adb shell pm enable com.google.android.apps.tv.launcherx

2. adb shell pm enable com.google.android.apps.tv.launcherx

Restart the device

Thanks for this, just bought two Chromecasts and was able to seamlessly install a custom launcher using your guide.
[Google Chromecast] DMaglaras:
ONE. SOCIAL REMARK:

I too find PuckBass's comment less than appropriate. It may be that this HOWTO is holding a newby's hand and has been told many times before. But given the state of Android/Android TV where Google constantly moves the goalposts --sometimes the whole field!-- so that what you used to know is often no longer valid, it makes sense to reiterate old knowns, and rewrite them in succint and understandable language.

TWO. MY ACTUAL QUESTIONS:

(1) I have an Android TV (m7632) manufactured on August 2022 with Android TV 11 and default launcher Android TV. Supposing that Google TV Home is better insofar as it aggregates content from all apps and reorganizes it based on thematic categorizations (news, documentaries, films, series, etc) I tried to replace my default launcher with launcherx (katniss is already installed). Now I read that launcherx is not worth the trouble?

(2) Whenever I tried to replace Android TV with launcherx I ended up with a loop. Apparently the replacement went OK, but then launcher proved incompatible with my OS. I have taken care to match the dpi (320), and of course architecture is armeabi-v7a. Have I hit an undocumented incompatibility?
[Google Chromecast] alexito_dev:
hello guys

I wanted to install the androidtv launcher but in adb I get the following error:

Is there any way to install it? The launcher of Google TV I do not like much ...
[Google Chromecast] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
dont listen to that jackalope, he is obviously a newb to XDA and has no clue but this is a huge help to us XDA'ers!!!

this is flippin awesome, thank you!!!
[Google Chromecast] DCMojo:
Thank you!. I simply wanted to put together a simple guide.

Ofcourse! If yall need any help il try my best to offer it
[Google Chromecast] GROOVYJOSHCLARK:
This is awesome, I personally appreciate it!

I help in the dev section (pixel custom ROMs) and have been since ICS. Trust me when I say "how to" posts with step by step write-ups are what xda exists for (basically the entire reason xda was created). It is by these step by step write-ups that we learn and achieve the desired goal, so that guy is a moron and please do not be swayed by future posts such as this one!

Unfortunately you can't help stupidity and there's always an idiot that just has to say something (like the jackalope telling you this isn't reddit). He's a complete moron and would be better off sticking to reddit and leave the development to us developers.

[General Questions and Answers] Alps2:
I have an bricked Alps X5 tablet. And I can not find a stock rom for it.

But I have searched a rom for the mothercard K1008 and the cpu mt6592.

And I found a tablet Wintouch K11, and I installed the stock rom for it.

The Tablet boots with a sound and the backlight turns on.

But the display is just gray, with no image.

What file or files might be incompatible with the hardware?
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
IMO flashing a non-stock ROM can lead to software instability, compatibility issues, or even bricking your device. It is important to thoroughly research and understand the process before attempting to flash a ROM that is not the stock ROM.
[General Questions and Answers] Alps2:
It is useless anyway, so I dont have much to lose.

To find the right rom for "tablet Alps X5 " seames to be impossible.

[General Questions and Answers] ArroganceComplex:
So I'm new here and just have been having this dilemma. I've been scouring the web for the ROM for my OS so I can root, sadly the newly updated ones aren't out even on the official vivo website. So I wanted to ask what I should do? Is there a way to extract the files directly from my device?

For reference, here's the version of my current OS.View attachment 5944403

And also I'd like to ask if there's any updated tools for unlocking the bootloader for a vivo phones? Found a lot but most of them aren't updated, thing is fastboot doesn't recognize my device there unlike in the official Android sdk platform tools, but the vivo unlocking commands aren't present there.

If you'd like more information then just write it down and I'll reply when possible. Thank you.

And also my phone is the 1938 variant? Or so I've seen.

EDIT 1: I'm wondering if I could just flash a custom ROM like lineage OS in my phone without yet unlocking the bootloader and use that to unlock the bootloader without needing to use vivo specific unlocking commands and at the same time, root it in case I can't really get the files needed on vivo to root it.

[Samsung Galaxy S22] MohicanoPolako:
Hi,

i got s22 and is it possible to show or combine calls by phone number in Android 13, and not separately by time? In Miui, each phone number was shown separately, and only when you entered it, you knew what the calls were. I'm asking because if I don't answer the phone from several people, and the same number will ring several times, I have a missed call separately instead of grouping them together :-)

Regards
[Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers] zack0221:
I have a VOG-L29 C636. It stuck at EMUI 9.1, and my bank app not support anymore on Android 9.1. So i must take the risk to flash the frameware. By follow the tutorial i manage to use Hisuite and Hisuite Proxy for the update, but at the end it make my phone softbricked in

VOG-LGRP2-OVS 11.0.0.180

VOG-L29-PRELOAD 11.0.0.4(C636R1)

VOG-L29-CUST 11.0.0.7(C636)

After that i try to unbrick it with OTG but accidently flash the wrong frameware VOG-L29C 10.1.0.179(C431E23R2P5) and it cause my phone not working on OTG update and Hisuite also not recognized my phone even in fastboot.

Please help me if anyone have any solution. I really need help now.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] vuko125:
Hi all

The screen does not turn on or respond to touch. Abd in unauthorised, I tried connecting a mouse or a keyboard and a monitor via HDMI, but the mouse and keyboard are ignored I cannot get to the pin screen. Are there any other options ?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Renate:
Do you see anything on the monitor? What?

Disconnect the monitor and try the keyboard on a simple OTG adapter.

Reconnect the monitor.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] vuko125:
Grey screen with padlock. I tried mouse and a keyboard on their own but upon reconnecting to the monitor I'm back at the grey screen with padlock. I can't find my original OTG adaptor, could it be the aftermarket one that prevents me from swiping on it with the mouse ?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Renate:
Does the keyboard have any LEDs (for caps, scroll, num lock)?

Can you get the LEDs to turn on and off when connected?

Does the mouse glow red when connected?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] vuko125:
Yes, both the keyboard and the mouse light up when connected, but I can't seem to swipe or do anything by pressing any key on the keyboard.

Also for a brief moment after I turn the screen on it responds to the double tap which turns the screen off, but not enough to do a full swipe.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Renate:
Oh, you need a swipe to start things? A swipe up?

Hmm, and I guess neither swiping on the screen (the touch could still be working even if the screen doesn't glow) or the mouse?

You don't have a digitizer (like a Wacom) or a friend who has one?

I have a way to turn a 2nd Android into a swiper/keyer/tapper for your Android, but it's a bit complicated and I don't know if it's worth bothering.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] vuko125:
It's a swipe from left to right up might work as well. I tried swiping on the screen since Friday without luck. Same goes for the mouse, it's either not reading the input or I cannot get the swipe right. I'll get a second android phone tomorrow as well as the original OTG adapter. It definitely is worth bothering if it means I'll get access to the files on the internal storage. Any particular cables that I'll need to use another android as a swiper ?

I remember unlocking my previous s10 with the same mouse I'm using now, but the screen was turning on and I was using the original adapter.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Renate:
No, the second Android is just being a keyboard/digitizer.

Something that is rooted and has the HID gadget would be good..

Unfortunately, you can't directly query if somthing supports hidg.

If you have a rooted device just:

# echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict
# cat /proc/kallsyms|grep hidg_

If you get 30 lines it has it.

A Bluetooth keyboard paired with the second Android is required too. (The USB is being used to talk to the first Android.)
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] vuko125:
The second device is definitely not going to be rooted. Sounds like my only option is to go to the repair centre, ask them to temporarily put a new display on so that the data can be copied and then take it off and put the broken back on.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Renate:
Ok, I clearly have have more junk at my fingertips.

I've got enough microcontrollers that I could make swipe in a 1/2 hour of coding.

The rooted 2nd Android is basically doing that.

There is also the possibility that they disable all external devices until there is a finger swipe on the screen.

So that asks the question how you destroyed the screen and how bad it is.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] vuko125:
It's cracked in multiple places, one spot was bad enough that you could see the illumination (a permanent white patch). It got hit with a metal plate from a decent height. It was still working and I was going to copy all data after work but the screen winked out of life before I got home. I spoke to a nearby repair centre they said they can put a temporary screen on in for long enough to copy the internal storage and then I can get it replaced on insurance. If I had a spare android phone lying around I'd root it just to get this done but I'll be borrowing it from a colleague. Currently using a dreadful Iphone 4 just to make calls and get messages, nothing else is supported on it.

The screen is responsive for few seconds after pressing the power button, enough for the double tap but not to get the swipe in specially that the swipe has the quite lengthy to get to the pin code.

I tried having someone call me while I'm connected to the monitor to see if this will get me somewhere but the lock screen didn't budge.

I also tried restarting the phone with power button and volume down button but that did nothing either. I don't know if booting it in safe mode would work even I could manage that without being able seeing anything. I definitely don't want to start pressing random keys.

Once the replacement arrives first two things I'll do is enabling remote unlock and authorise my pc for adb.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] lbhocky19:
so pim backup will save them and let you restore but when you do they go out of order in threaded and all incoming first then sent

has anyone found a program that will put them back in order after a restore?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] overhaulengines:
used to have this problem to, try this, before you restore after a flash, use advanced configuration to disable threaded messaging, the soft reset, now restore from pim back up, once done, go back to advanced config and set messaging back to threaded, soft reset when done, once the device boots back up, go to your messages and you can see them restore, give it time, some times it will first restore on the messages you received, but wait a little while longer and then it will start to put your responses in there to, it takes time.. good luck

lupe
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] lbhocky19:
alright givin it a shot later today

thanks
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Dramacydle:
I constantly have that problem, but I also noticed that if you perform another restore (or 2 or 3) and overwrite the previously restored messages, eventually they come back in their reverse chronological order that they were in originally. Try it out and see if it works for you. I can't reproduce it consistently and I try different things, like going into the Inbox and watching the threads populate from there.

Thanks and sorry if this is a repeat thread, just want to be safe.

Software version: VS99520c

Android Security Patch Level: October 1, 2018

Android Version 8.0.0

Kernel Version (idk if this matters lol): 3.18.71-perf+
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] dextructor:
Probably and most certainly is a repeated question. I'm also new to the V20 community and a little search using the XDA search and google showed few answers.

The AIO VS995 Thread it's more specific to your variant and would cover anything that other general should not apply.

The LG V20 Bootloader Unlock Walkthrough video would provide more visual aid if you can't understand some of the steps of downgrading/unlocking your device.

So take your time to read, watch. Take notes, download the files, follow carefully the instructions and all should be fine.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] hautwata:
Hey, so just an update because i did this today: on the fastboot reboot command (after step 3 and the other commands), i accidentally held the power button too long and there was static everywhere on my phone. it eventually went to the white factory data reset screen after i ran fastboot reboot a couple more times (no static there), but then after that it went to static again. To solve this I simply took the battery out and back in, connected cable to computer and held volume down, getting into fastboot mode, then reran the previous three fastboot commands over again before fastboot reboot. I got into twrp but then when i tried to install the recovery twrp img it didnt work without step 3 (or because i rebooted system instead of pressing back and then rebooting to recovery?) so i redid with step 3 this time + fastboot commands the next time and after getting into twrp again the reboot worked! Was scary with that static but maybe someone else will have a similar problem and this will save them some time.

[Xiaomi Poco F5 / Redmi Note 12 Turbo (China)] mike_san:
Hello guys!,

I wanted to update my phone and was checking this phone and the F5 pro, from which what I saw the F5 was better I'm camera than the pro.

Here I'm Spain the F5 is around 375€ and the pro is 435€ so there is no big difference in price.

But was wondering if it is worth the price difference.

From your own hands how well the F5 is with the battery? And overall, I'm coming from a Realme X2 pro.

Happy weekend!
[Xiaomi Poco F5 / Redmi Note 12 Turbo (China)] NOSS8:
The camera is the same, the difference is rather at the level of the soc and the screen.

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen1 allows 8k video and slow motion video at 1920 fps.

the screen is WQHD+ versus FHD+.

And the 5160 mHa battery.

See the comparisons here.

Thanks!

Sadly these pages only show hardware comparison, I wanted an opinion from an user directly.

Specially since there are updates that improves the phone, and not always the same when they launch.
[Xiaomi Poco F5 / Redmi Note 12 Turbo (China)] NOSS8:
On paper the poco pro is better and in general it's fair and the poco f5 is limited because of the soc and will never have the performance of the pro even with the updates.

The only difference could be located at the level of autonomy.
