[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] picitup:
Hi All

I have a Mi 11 Ultra and installed Noroot Firewall from Grey Shirts some time ago. When checking the logs, I noticed an Internet request from Always On Display. The list of information it transmits is huge (see pic) Of course, I blocked it.

It attempted to contact 20.157.18.58 on the secure port 443. A quick whois search revealed this as Microsoft. A tracert revealed the name:

microsoftirelandoperationslimited-ic-368022.ip.twelve99-cust.net

I'm hoping this is a cloud service, rented by Xiaomi, but I guess it's possible Xiaomi is selling detailed usage data to Microsoft?

Anyway I thought the easiest thing to do was to stop the apps's Internet access, but you can't.

If you go to Settings/Apps/ Manage Apps/Always-on Display/Data Usage, you can disable mobile data, but the Wifi option is turned on and greyed out. Thank heavens for firewalls!

I really like Xiaomi phones, but they really are nosey, with multiple apps attempting to contact multiple sites every few minutes.

What's more, this is my phone I've paid for and my mobile data when I'm out and about. So basically I'm funding Xiaomi's data research.

Anyway, I thought I'd report this in case someone else might benefit.

Cheers

Steve

I have now been trying to join the Galaxy watch one UI 5 beta for around three weeks now, I know people that do not even have Galaxy watches and are getting the banner to update the watch to the beta. I talked to someone from Samsung, and they said the beta is a third party program and Samsung is not actually offering one (which is not true). If any body and get their hands on a image file of the beta that I could flash to my watch, link it to the comments below. (Also, I posted about this in the Samsung members app and they took down my post.)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Jezwick:
A new ROM for the HTC Touch HD has been been released in Hong Kong. The update seems to address minor issues, but who knows what other goodies HTC slipped in there.

HTC says the update brings the ROM version up to 1.19.831.0 and the Radio version up to 1.09.25.14 and fixes:

* Resolves the following CSL Real-time Stock Quote & Foreign Exchange Service issues:

1. The last input box in Edit Stock cannot be selected by touch screen.

2. The stock ticker on top sometimes does not start from right to left.

3. After entering the stock symbol in the instant stock lookup, the Back button may not show on the right side.

* Fixes the font size display problem in Opera.

* Resolves the issue of getting an error when downloading songs from CSL WAP site with .m4a format.

The update is not available in other international sites yet. To see if it applies to your HD see the download page here. http://www.htc.com/hk-en/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=179&cat=2&dl_id=453

I'm having a lot of trouble with my android. I fell asleep on the couch around half an hour ago and I woke up, and it was dead, so I put it on the charger. But the screen flashed this cyan screen saying broken cable. I put it on every single charger in the house and still nothing worked. I even put other phones and tablet on these chargers to make sure they worked and they did. So I don't know why my phone isn't charging 10.0.0.0.1 192.168.1.254 . Whenever I do put it on a charger it just turns in but is an all black screen then immediately turns off. It keep doing this and I'm scared it'll mess up my phone. I noticed in the top corner it said "(timeout) Normal booting" so I'm wondering what is going on and what can I do to fix it. Is this one of those red rings of death moments or am I just exaggerating???

[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] gadgetman04:
Waiting on delivery of my new 23 Ultra (should be here tomorrow) I've also got the "Spigen Tough Armor Case" coming today.

Wanted to know what's the best screen protector to use with this case? i did buy the official Samsung film too as it was cheap. But ideally I'd like something more robust like glass protector. But iv'e heard using the Spigen Tough Armor Case it may affect the screen protect and push it off after a while.

Any recommendation from people who have the Spigen Tough Armor Case and a good glass protector?

Also looking for a film type proctor for the back. As I have another galaxy phone, and it has a spigeon case on it, but the back of the phone has so many scuff marks on it due to the case rubbing on the back over the years. Ideally, ant to avoid this on the ultra.

i'm in the UK by the way.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] borijess:
I have been using this one (IMBZBK)

for months and it's still flawless. Don't buy Whitestone dome or Amfilm. They always start to peel on the edges. Plus Amfilm is using a very weak glue that doesnt last pass a day without the glass coming off.

Did you search for imbzbk
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] oVeRdOsE.:
glass are pretty similar no matter the brand. My bro and I got s22/s23 and we tested few glass protector, and they all are +/- same size and same glue strength.

Some case fit, but the moment it has an impact, it will deform to the glass and lift it.

we tested otterbox, caseology and spigen. It all touches the glass.

However, yesterday I tried a new one, since I was tire to have bubble, and so far so good, it very far from the glass edge. Tocol brand case.

Not the perfect case, since it's slippery, the transparent back is not so transparent and you can not feel the vol/power button .

But this is the one, that Ill keep until the end , pretty sure. Which will be 5-6 years.

I feel like I didn't gain anything by switching from my old A11 Redmi Note 5 to my new A13 RN11. Feels bad.

[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] gentano:
Android 11 is imho WAY better for 4GB phones, so it is also way better for Spes/Spesn as the memory managment and memory usage beginning with Android 12 is just garbage and again imho 4gb is not enough for Android 12+

Unfortunately I couldnt find any maintained Lineage 18 or any alternative maintained Android 11 AOSP rom for Spes/Spesn, so ye... it really sucks.. but better be on Lineage 20 then on Miui 13, cause Miui 13 is the worst...

But in case anyone knows about any maintained Android 11 AOSP rom, PLEASE feel free and get the info out here - cause we really would like to try out.

By ROM u mean AOSP rom? Cause there are tons of XIAOMI Android 11 roms and even these are MUCH better (in terms of memory managment) then all Android 12+ Lineage/AOSP roms. My spesn came stock with Miui 13 basen on Android 11 and memory managment was very good/expected as it should

yes its a shame and all its purpose is to force into buying new phones

Maybe you have to switch back to older firmware?! Would be cool if anybody confirm this.

I tried installing Lineage 18.1 GSI, but nothing would work. I guess I didn't get enough luck (but it probably would work now, idk)

I installed Nusantara and it seems to work well (I just had a very, very hard time installing it, I feel like my phone is capricious, tell me if you need some guide and I will do my best to help you); I also got root access and twrp 12-13 ramdisk (decryption works)

Things related to charging seems a little broken (charging time estimation, fast charging). I will see if I get to solve this. No idea how, but it now works (I think it was linked to the settings not working ****)

Bluetooth seems also broken (it was when settings were broken)

Settings app is half-broken (it was fine at the beginning) (I wiped data in twrp. Solved issue.)

I am currently restoring my apps and will see if the stability is there ! My priority rn is to restore settings app (I can access submenus but not the settings app. Not convenient)

Double tap to wake not working when in deep sleep (sad)

No negociated charging speed on lock screen

So yeah this rom looks solid. I recommend.

[Touch HD General] owenand:
Hi Folks,

I know there are several threads here around apps that either don't scale or just die the death on the HD, and I'm watching the list closely...

But I just wanted to know generally what happens with the HD in terms of scaling? Does it attempt to scale QVGA and VGA apps to fit the screen, or does it run them 1:1, or does it vary by app?

Clearly there are several lower res apps that work fine on the device so I wondered how it was handled but I've not seen a explanation of scaling on the device and why its an issue for some apps and not others?

I'm torn between a Raphael and a Blackstone for my next handset - I'm almost at the point of convincing myself I can live without my Kaiser's keyboard...

But given the high number of random apps I've got clogging up my Kaiser, I'm worried that incompatibility with that huge screen might be the one reason to make me steer clear of the Touch HD....much as I like the idea of all that real estate.

Thanks for any info, and apologies if I've missed a thread that gives this info already.
[Touch HD General] owenand:
No thoughts then!?

I have to say I think I'm swinging back towards the Raphael now just to err on the side of caution with presumably a higher number of compatible apps!

I'd have settled for a diamond but need more storage!
[Touch HD General] SiliconS:
I guess there are lots of people who don't know the answer to your questions. I'm one of them. :)

However, it might help if you clarify which apps you're particularly interested in. The scaling/resizing seems to be application-specific, rather than something that the HD manages. A badly-written app might not scale or expand whereas an application that was written to take account of any reasonable screen resolution would look fine.

As an example even Total Commander, which must have been written months (if not years) ago, looks fine on my HD because it expands to fill the full screen. Yet TomTom is much more sensitive to the screen resolution and many versions refuse to start up at all. (That's not to imply that TomTom is badly written, BTW.)

There are only a handful of threads in these forums about apps that don't work, so I guess that most are fine. But it'd help if you were specific about which ones of yours would be deal-breakers if they didn't scale.
[Touch HD General] owenand:
Thanks for the response, my list of apps is pretty random but among others I've collected over the last couple of years and use are:

- a few astronomy apps (Asto Navigator, Astromist, PocketStars)...

- SPB Mobile Shell/diary (presume they'll be fine?!)

- Games (Age of Empires, Orions)

- Slingplayer Mobile

- Memory Map (overland GPS navigation on OS maps)

- WebCamera Plus

- I've already read a lot of the SatNav woes here and elsewhere so I'm comfortable that will be resolved anyway!

Cheers for any further thoughts or experience!
[Touch HD General] SiliconS:
You can bet your left nut that if current apps aren't compatible then they will be soon, with both the HD and the Xperia having this resolution and becoming more and more popular. Do the websites for those apps report any kind of compatibility issues with specific devices?

If you're desperate then an email to those apps' developers might yield some answers. :)
[Touch HD General] johnpatcher:
Yeah, thats the way it works.

Most applications run just fine, you have more place and this place is filled with content. Other applications won't run, because they are hardcoded on (Q)VGA resolutions. One solution is the WVGA fix, so you will loose a few pixels and "simulating" a VGA screen, another solution is to play with the configurations of the applications.

However I haven't found a program that doesn't run on my HD so far, and I have already installed a lot of them.
[Touch HD General] owenand:
Thanks for the positive commentary - looked at WVGA fix and it seems very encouraging!

Do you know whether it has any significant impact on application performance or is it very skinny?

Also I note that SlingMedia have updated Slingplayer with 800x480 support so that's another tick on the list!
[Touch HD General] johnpatcher:
I don't think that its significant. Even iGO8 runs with the WVGA fix.
[Motorola Edge 30 Ultra / Motorola Moto X30 Pro] haow17:
Hi everyone, I ask this question here because

I got a China retail version Razr 40 Ultra, XT2321-2, which is actually with same CPU as X30pro/Edge 30 Ultra

My OEM Unlocking is toggleable, but the moto bootloader site said 'Your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking'

The China retail rom, believe me, is not the same level as its global peer. Let's say the Nearby Sharing is not available because Google services are not by default. More worse is too many tricky Chinese apps keep asking you if they can read your Contacts...

So I want to convert my Razr 40 Ultra to global version, e.g. reteu

Since the bootloader cannot be unlocked, I am thinking if the blank flash way can bypass it, and flash a bootloader from global version to overwrite the factory shipped one? Any comments or suggestion will be appreciated. I know there is risk, and I will take it for 'FREEDOM'

We just posted a substantial upgrade v2.01. It is so far a BETA only, but it was tested on many devices.

http://www.resco.net/pocketpc/backup/downloads.asp

The final release should be soon. (We still have some improvements in mind for the Unpack Tool.)

The news in brief:

PDA:

* Upload/download to FTP server

* Multi-level log of backup activities

* PIN code restore after auto-backup

* Registry Diff tool (allows tracing of Registry changes!)

* Higher speed and a number of other improvements

Desktop Unpack Tool

* Explorer-like interface

* Browse the contents of the backup set

* Files, contacts, e-mails, SMS, Registry etc.

* Selective extraction of specified data

* Export into csv and other formats

I know that several of you had problems with Stopping Apps feature. I have to bring down this is a controversial feature and there does not exist a 100% reliable solution. Whether you take Spb or Resco or Sprite etc. - the best thing these apps can do is to skip over an application that causes the problems.

(The explanation for programmers: If an app is waiting on a kernel object and another app is trying to terminate it, the result is a deadlock.)

I mentioned this because the new version contains very good log. If you get a freeze problem and switch on to the detailed log, there is a fair chance that the log will point to the culprit. If this is the case, we would appreciate if you told us what you saw in the log. (Or send the log to palm@resco.net.)

BUT: If you switch on the detailed log, don't forget to switch it off later as the amount of the logged information is really large.
