[Sony Xperia 1 IV] tomatoketchup:
Hey there, I wanted to know what's the proper and least issue ridden way / path of least resistance to adapt lineageos to a device that should run GSI builds just fine like this Xperia 1 IV. Now, phh backed out of making GSIs so that looks a bit bleak now, but then I wonder if the important bits are already part of LOS or if I shouldn't even take the GSI related stuff. I've not done ROM development before but I consider myself a competent general purpose software developer (and yes I have Android experience, in java, scala while Android dev in scala was trendy even with its messy proguard and multidex shenanigans right before kotlin, and then in kotlin, so I've got like 11 years of working on Android on and off)

If anyone has got helpful tips and link to articles about how to begin adapting a device (and if GSI lightens up the load how to use its infrastructure as much as possible) and what to extract/backup from the stock ROM etc I would greatly appreciate 🙏 blessings

As to why: Sony's ROM, while stockish enough, can be a bit buggy wrt ex. notification shade and Bluetooth A2DP codecs that are not SBC or LDAC, just to name a few. There seem to be no Xperia 1 IV custom ROMs at all so I don't even know who to ask for tips. I'd like to keep the fingerprint reader working, the shutter button and Sony's camera stack, but that can come later after I first get a booting build. Thanks!
[Sony Xperia 1 IV] Doom Slayer:
I think one should start with porting TWRP recovery, because it's includes creating what so called a device tree, which I believe might be useful for LOS and other roms.

I might be wrong, as I am more into kernels development rather then ROMs.
[Sony Xperia 1 IV] Damnationz:
I'm guessing this didn't go anywhere :( I'm kinda getting wound up with Sony's Rom it sucks big time. I've got no experience with development for Android but I'll give it a crack. Was there any movement for Twrp?
[Sony Xperia 1 IV] tomatoketchup:
loipuru just released a beta of twrp for the 1 IV
[Sony Xperia 1 IV] tomatoketchup:
super late reply but isn't this the device tree? I'm thinking of getting a 1 V and actually getting around into hacking away the 1 IV

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] xdaforo:
hello everyone,

I tried the custom rom crdroid (android 11) for this device. And even when I was quite happy with the smothness and stability for what I got to try, I started to experiment multple issues with gps posicition lock. I tried several fixes like the gps.conf metoth via file exchange, and via magisk but none seems to solve the fact that you need a third party app to lock gps position, and even so, locking seems not to work very well nor other apps are able to use location as they should.

Everything started when I enabled mock location app in developers settings and after using and uninstalling suck app. But for what I have read this is a common issue in all custom roms.

Is there any fix that I should check or revise. Is the stock rom the only solution to this?
[Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE] Varfolomei:
today my XIAOMI 11 lite 5g ne performed update by itself while being locked in my pocket. during update it also performed "data wipe", so when I took phone out of my pocket it was completely blank!!!!

anyways to restore it?

Seems that it is a known problem that Xiaomi is trying to hide, since when I try to report it on official Xiaomi community my post is removed in half a minute after I write it. Has anyone else experience it also?
[Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE] johnr64:
Hi,

I moved away from stock 14 days after buying my Poco F3,

I would suggest to put the phone into Fastboot mode, by holding the Power & volume down buttons and connect to a PC and check if your phone is recognized.

I put together a small program that i use when switching roms, this has Standalone fastboot commands and other goodies and can be found here:

https://xdaforums.com/t/has-anyone-...backup-since-android-13.4593521/post-88632535

if you have fastboot you can re-install Miui or even better switch to a great custom rom like Evo-X,

I hope you sort it.
[Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE] rashazad:
First thing I would have tried, is to change active slot. If you need more information about that, feel free to ask.

I hope ot helps.
[Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE] Varfolomei:
Hei,

Seems I have been unclear, since I was very pissed off when wrote the topic - my phone installed MIUI 14 normally, so it works, but all the data was erased, which should not have happened.
[Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE] johnr64:
I am glad your not bricked, I would still would suggest to ditch stock firmware as miui has limitations, I use Evo-X custom ROM and it's Amazing.

The only downside to this great phone is the official firmware.

If your bootloader is unlocked and you have a OTG adapter you could backup your Apps and there data to a USB stick using DataBackup.apk this is found in the "Temporary Recovery" file, the link is in my previous post
[Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE] zgfg:
Xiaomi.eu Stable is excellent - it's kind of debloated MIUI, and with Xiaomi.eu an intended update would never happen (and once you switch to Xiaomi.eu you would not need to Wipe Data for their updates)

Of course, you need to unlock Bootloader for the installation - instructions and download are here:

MIUI 14 - MIUI 14 STABLE RELEASE

Status: RELEASED RULES WHEN POSTING 1. If a ROM is not published DONT ASK ABOUT ITS ETA 2. If a ROM is not published DONT ASK why! 3. If a ROM is available, download it and use it 4. If a ROM has bugs, post the bug to the bug section if the BUG is not already listed 5. If you use any form of...

xiaomi.eu

----

Regarding to the Wiped Data you cannot recover if you didn't prepare backup before it was wiped

(Even if you would have backup of data.img you would not be able to decrypt Data bcs after the wipe, on the next boot, Android creates a new encryption with the new and different key)

Eg, Swift Backup from Playstore is excellent to backup apps with their settings and data, WiFi passwords, etc.

You can selectively backup and restore particular apps, etc

If you used Xiaomi cloud you could also recover from Xiaomi Cloud

Similarly with Google One
[Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE] zgfg:
Update on my previous post:

Today I had notification to update Xiaomi.eu from v14.08 to v14.0.10 and everything went smooth (and of course without Data wiping)
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Djuro89:
Hello, I noticed this bug after update Google Phone App version in latest version four momth ago.

When I open the application and call a number at this point, it is not seen time at the top of the screen on the left as well as the percentage of the battery on the right. And when I quit the conversation, then everything can be seen normally again. However, when I work in the dark theme on the phone, then everything is nice to see at the top of the screen. All information is only visable when i calling number from contact app, but from phone app problem is present.

I contacted Sony support and they told me to try to clear data and cache in aplication, and to start the phone in safe mode or if none of that works, to reset the phone to factory settings and see if the problem will be solved. As I immediately thought, the problem is not solved in any of these ways, the problem is obviously in the application itself (google phone app) and that problem appeared after one of the application updates. Since I couldn't find a direct email from Google customer support anywhere, I contacted the Sony company

White theme, all on the top screen is not visible.

Dark theme, all on the top screen is visible.

Thank you for reading this

EDIT 1:

You need to open the AndroidProducts.mk file and rename the lineage_jfltexx.mk line to aosp_jfltexx.mk.

You also need to change the lineage_jfltexx.mk file so it is called aosp_jfltexx.mk, and inside it you need to change any occurrences to aosp (basically you are rebranding the device tree to use the aosp versions rather than the lineage branded ones)

Credit: @ThePiGuy

To find what you need to rebrand your device tree to you have to do brunch (heres a cut down version of what you would see

279. aosp_violet-user
280. aosp_violet-userdebug
281. aosp_violet-eng
282. aosp_walleye-user
283. aosp_walleye-userdebug

and the first word you would see (aosp) you follow the steps above to fix the issue
[Nokia 8.3 5G (8V 5G UW) Questions & Answers] dch82:
Hello,

How do I unbrick a hard-bricked Nokia 8.3 5G (i.e. messed it up so badly it won't even respond to power button)?

Recently, I was trying to flash an update of an Android GSI to a bootloader-unlocked 8.3, then the process broke half-way. Somehow, it also destroyed fastbootd, then in trying to repair this, I reflashed the recovery to the stock recovery and boot.img to stock boot.img. Then in doing so, I somehow messed up the entire phone and now it won't even respond to power button.

The harder I try, the worse it gets.

Please help!

Thanks!

I have a strange issue on all GSI. Currently I'm using PE 13.

By default, Discord Audio works fine but volume control does not work. I do get sound but can't control it.

If I choose Alternate Audio Policy then I can control volume but Discord and other VoIP app sound will be high pitch. Choosing Disable Audio Effect (even the one that say might disable high pitch) doesn't fix it.

Does anyone know a fix?

[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Qwerty Uiop Keyboard:
-Context-

(Yes, this IS important, so please read!)

So I've been feeling a bit nostalgic lately! My first real phone (that, like, I used to make calls) was an iPhone 3gs, my second was a Samsung SGH-I577 (which wasn't very good tbh), my third was the 1st generation Moto E.

I LOVED that Moto E! What an excellent phone that was! Android kitkat (which was plenty modern and supported back in ~2015), excellent screen, fast and snappy, etc.

What WASN'T so nice was the fact it was registered on either tracfone or straight talk (pretty sure it was tracfone. Besides, I was 12 or 13 at the time and this was my first NEW mobile phone).

So being a massive android simp at the time, I wanted to root it! Guess what happened! Yep! "Your device is not eligible for unlocking"! Lets just say I'm quite a hot head and that phone experienced _kinetic energy._

(And... the cheap canned beef stew just detonated in the microwave and I now have to clean it up. EXCELLENT!)

----

"Your EVIL has claimed the lives of MANY good men! No longer!" -Viktor Reznov, Call of Duty Black Ops

----

Lets just say I eventually wised up to tracfone/straight talk's shenanigans over the years. They either needlessly remove features (in the case of their rebranded feature phones) and/or lock the phone down tighter then fort knox (especially in the case of their android phones). All in the name of preventing network unlocking! God forbid we lose $13 to people network unlocking our phones! Isn't capitalism just _lovely?_

Meanwhile the Mediatek Chinese Specials just _let you unlock the bootloader._ It's DEAD easy!

-The Question-

I'm looking to buy a 1st gen Moto E to add to my collection as it's the third phone I've ever had.

However, I like doing nerdy stuff like messing with root, flashing stuff, etc. But from past experience I know you need the "unlock key" to unlock the bootloader and that it's possible for a device to not be eligible for unlocking (Stupid capitalism thing).

So in case the specimen I pick up from ebay isn't eligible, have there been any developments in "unconventional" unlocking methods?

Basically, has someone figured out how to bootloader unlock an original Moto E without the unlock key?

If not, perhaps a new project?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ArvhFiend:
I have a Moto Edge 30 and I had issues with a custom rom and reverted back to the stock firmware. It worked and then I made the horrendous mistake of re-locking bootloader. It suddenly showed a pop-up of No Operating system detected and now my device is stuck in fastboot. Bootloader is locked and when I try to unlock it it just says enable OEM unlock in developer settings. I can't boot into recovery or the OS. Booting into recovery using fastboot reboot recovery just reboots the devices back into fastboot. Nothing happens. Please help I'm stuck in fastboot!!
[Introductions] CheapSweetLife:
First off lets start from the beginning I'm totally new to the whole rooting or not rooting side of things. And here is the issues I'm having: I own a fire tablet and it seems to work fine and the screen is not in that bad of shape. I also have a Onn tablet which I think is a 7" and the screen has some pretty bad scratches on it so I would not like to use it for something where I would need to look at the screen to have to watch or to have to read something. I also have a odd named off brand 10" tablet which also has some pretty bad scratches not so bad the scratches are in the screens deep but still kind of annoying.

I have been using my cellphone to read my manga and such online for awhile now do to these tablets being so scratched up.

I would like to be able to use these (3) tablets for something else.

Like weather station or police scanner and news tablet and such for my local area and such. And then use one for just voice recording notes and voice to text stuff with a proof reader. I want to use these (3) tablets since they are still good but not really nice to look at all the time so screen readers like for reading manga or digital magazines would be out of the question and there not really good for playing game either so simple apps that don't have advertisements would be great on these.

So I will be looking for advice on this forum for simple easy to use and setup apps as well as how to best setup these tablets if I had charged them and given them a fresh install and then tinkered with them.

Some of you might already have tinkered with a few cheap tablets and have some good pointers and advice and if you do can you please point me in the correct direction. Thank You!

[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] pxico:
First you need to download the package "the tools for falshing BENQ E72.zip" that is located on the same directory where you download the ROM. After that switch off your phone and after that press "0" and connect the usb cable. Windows detects a new driver, and you need to install it. The driver is also on the package that I describe above. After installed the driver you should do again the process to press "0" and connect usb cable, until you see the led blinking. Attention, you need to do this with the phone off. Now start P21DTDownloadTool_Crack.exe application do the following:

- ebootmdoc.nb0 as EBoot

- reserved.dio as BDTL0

- E72.DIO as OS

- OS after download not checked

- Click run and wait

[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] aeroflyluby:
I have made 6.1 rom with english and chinese support, You can download it from : http://www.e72.pl/forum/viewthread.php?thread_id=199

Direct link is : http://www.4shared.com/file/100637309/b42a13da/Benq_E72_WM61_V2.html

All files needed is in package

You also need flashing tool : http://www.4shared.com/file/93379838/1d04e8be/the_tools_for_falshing_BENQ_E72.html

You have to load files as:

ebootmdoc.nb0 as EBoot

reserved.dio as BDTL0

E72.DIO as OS

and then install driver in flashing tool package, after that press 0 at your benq and when 0 is pressed plugin benq to your USB cable. Hold 0 while red led starts flashing, when flashing pull off 0 and then click RUN in flashing tool

I have flashed it in XP, in vista and in 7, with no problems, also I have unplugged benq while flashing and then restarted it and flashed again, works, so it is very secure!

Enjoy
