[Google Home] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I'm on the Pixel 7 Pro. The Home app claims that it's saving these clips that I tell it to, but I've told it multiple times - they don't show up in Google Photos, and they don't show up in a new folder that is available to have Google Photos backup. I manually looked in the DCIM, Pictures, Downloads, and even Documents folders and subfolders, but the video clips just don't exist.

I am technically in the Public Preview program for the Home app, but I haven't noticed any obvious changes in the Home app in months, so I don't know if this could be a beta bug, or not. I could leave the Public Preview and see if that does any good, but I wanted to see if anyone has any ideas for where the clips are supposed to be saving at.

I just checked AppInfo for the Home app, and there are no permissions denied.

Thanks in advance for any ideas!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mcgreygor:
Hello! i just bought a moto g13 from a TIM store (is an italian operator, sells phones and telephone numbers with connectivity)

I went home, i turned it on, set the wifi and try to get a software update and says it's all good! with a security patch of 5 november 2022 (is that a bit old? looks like "first release" right?) - see first attachment.

So i tried some googling and find out that probably my phone is TIM BRANDED, damn it! i thought it was something over years ago, not in 2023 still (if i knew it i probably wouldn't have bought it).

i checked on the box and found also the word "TIM" at the end of the model name - see second attachment

as you can see in the others attachment you can read "software channel" TIMIT (daaaaamn iiit).

i took some pictures of bootloader and recovery as well for more info.

so i was wondering if i can flash a different firmware, i have some modding experience (bootloader unlocks, flash roms, etc...)

i saw on google this https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/motorola/penangf/

but i don't know which one to use, any suggestion on what to do?

thanks so much!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EDIT: attachment removed .

I solved the problem using the rescue and smart assistant (RSA) from lenovo:

Rescue and Smart Assistant (RSA) - Lenovo Support US

support.lenovo.com

it won't debrand but at least i got the latest android version available (security patch 5 june 2023)

In my case, the RSA official tool downloaded the same firmware version as here:

lolinet mirrors - firmware, software, iso etc.

lolinet mirrors - powered by h5ai

mirrors.lolinet.com

1 - i had to update the official "device help" app in the playstore, first!

Device Help - Apps on Google Play

Device help provides you with a full spectrum of service resources.

play.google.com

2 - connect the phone to the computer with debug usb enable, open RSA program and click on "my device" section

3 - give all the permission you can on the device!

4 - go then to section "rescue" and now you can download latest version!

[FYT Android Head Units] Risuzaglis:
I want to get rid of the blue volume bar at the bottom ( I have buttons for those functions ). But there is no option to do that. I got launcher, but it doesn't change that part of the screen. It's permanently there.

Also there is a grey dot on the screen for quick access function ( its at the top left side ). I can't remove it either. It's on every screen and is super annoying.

Any way, I can get completely diferent type of android inferface?
[FYT Android Head Units] InElement:
I can't help you with the volume bar, but look under Factory Settings -> Original Car Agreement, it might be in there somewhere.

For the dot, go into your apps, there should be something called Touch Assistant there. It has options to turn itself off.
[FYT Android Head Units] Risuzaglis:
Great help, thanks! Unfortunately there is nothing in Original Car Agreement about the bar. :(
[FYT Android Head Units] Risuzaglis:
I found that if close fan process in developer settings it closes it. But that's only temporarily

I can't help with the blue bar, but that grey button, if it take you to the hvac controls try this. This was what the seller sent me to remove that button on my EKIY unit.

Hey guys,

Installed SCUMMVM onto my Touch HD and set in the options to go fullscreen 2x.

The problem now is the screen is left justified whereas the device thinks it's central. The upshot is that the stylus needs to be touched about quarter of an inch to the right of the deisngated area.

Anyone know how to solve this...

Thanks in advance
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] kyky1978:
Hi

You have to use WVGAFIX3
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] blackwalker:
where i can find SCUMMVM and the WVGAFIX3?

thx!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] paranoid2007:
The solution is to rotate the screen 180 degrees while a game is running (5th icon below the screen). Then the input is not shifted anymore.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ^Rook:
Hi,

Edit the file <scummvm.ini> and add this line:

landscape=2

This will make ScummVM start with the correct orientation. That way you wont have to rotate the screen manually everytime you're in a game :)

Regards,

Rolf
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] PelloG:
Hope, SCUMM will be full WVGA compatible soon.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Georgeous2008:
No need to apply the fix. Just tap twice on the monkey icon and everything will be ok (corresponds exactly to the landscape = 2 manipulation described here above). Even if you do it manually, ScummVM will be remember that setting for next time - you can configure that setting for every Scumm game and for ScummVM itself. With landscape = 1, the touch response does not work correctly. With landscape = 2, the touch response works properly. No way to centralize the screen though.

Regarding WVGA compatibility, from what I understand there will be no such compatibility. This does not have to do with ScummVM but rather with the games which run on the Scumm engine. In particular the older ones run on non-wide screen resolutions. Consequently, any WVGA scaling would result in stretching the images, unless you wanted to get rid of the ScummVM menu bar during the game. That would require reprogramming the interface with context menus to replace that menu bar.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] AntoCorsa:
I think the guy just wanted the game to be showed at the center of the screen, and not on the left.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Georgeous2008:
In the case you should re-read the first post. ;)

[Android Stick & Console Computers General] travelbug:
I got this little piece of box almost for free. Doing some research, it is not the best choice for a TV/Android box, but let’s get the most out of it 😊

Looking around it seems that all information is already out there but scattered around the place. So, see this just as a dummy’s guide to have all information in one single place.

The goal was to update the existing image as well as getting rid of Google related APKs.

I am using a mix of Windows and Unix and guess you can do everything more or less in Windows or Unix only. Tools needed:

Something for image un-/re-packing – I used Multi Image Kitchen (MIK)

Something for APK de-/re-compiling – I used APK Easy Tool

lpmake

I will first describe the basic steps and go into more detail for some steps later on.

ATTENTION: DO NOT USE AN IMAGE VERSIONED X29 or A29! Anything higher than version X22/A22 will burn the Security bit (eFUSE) inside the CPU preventing any modified firmware to be flashed into your TV box!​

Step 1

Get an image of your choice and unpack it by, e.g., using MIK – pay attention to unpack file super.fex inside that image. Inside folder ‘super’ you will get 3 subfolders: product, system and vendor.

Step 2

Modify whatever you want, e.g., add/remove APKs, implement TWRP, pre-patch the boot-partition, etc.

Step 3

Re-pack all 3 folders ‘product’, ‘system’ and ‘vendor’ into their separated images by, e.g., using MIK.

Step 4

Make these 3 images re-writable.

Step 5

Combine these 3 re-writable images into the ‘super’ image.

Step 6

Re-pack the whole image for your TV box by, e.g., using MIK.

Thanks to...

Hi Travelbug,

i have modify the 3 FOLDERS product,system and vendor

I REPACKED THEM only with MIK without doing STEP 4 and STEP5?? ONLY with WINDOWS??

IT apparently works Fine

But Only Google Store do not work , maybe the Google Services.apk not compatible

i have yet downloaded the last apks , i do not know :cowboy: will repacked them tonigth

Do you how to have the FULL PERMISSION RWXRW FOR ALL FILES in SYSTEM FOLDERS ??
[Android Stick & Console Computers General] travelbug:
@leleuchristophe

All modifications from 'step 2' can be done in Windows.

***************************

If you de-google the image as described by me in the modification section, you cannot start the Google PlayStore anymore => the purpose of the new APKs (microG) is to have some 'placeholders' because other APKs may require the Google apps being present (e.g. the German media streaming library "ZDF").

If you want to download any apps via a store, you will have to install a 3rd party app store, e.g. Aurora.

***************************

Another option is to not de-google and only increase the partition sizes. Doing so will provide some space inside the partitions, so that the PlayStore can update itself and also other (system) apps.

BUT: You will have to run through 'step 4' in order to gain write access! Otherwise the space is there but writing is denied. For whatever reason, the original write access is removed when unpacking and re-packing the image. It seems that the re-packing causes some corruption to the file system, which you can clean up via 'step 4'.
[Android Stick & Console Computers General] leleuchristophe:
Hi Travelb, i am actually replacing the originals files gms,framework and GoogleServices.apk , but i let the last GoogleStore.apk last Version 37 .

bUT I have already installed Aurora by STEP2 . I think i will erase all affiliate Google Store , gms, Google services, Framework and then i will INSTALL manually GoogleStore with AURORA (y)

LIKE YOU said, the best way is to INCREASE the SPACE from STEP 2:cowboy: I WILL try all your fabulous iideas :)

Thanks to your ideas, i have already resolve my first problem with the permission of PORTRAIT ROTATION in system DEFAULT PROP file.

About STEP 4, i think i must have LINUX system , is it IMPOSSIBLE TO DO STEP 4 from Windows ??
[Android Stick & Console Computers General] travelbug:
@leleuchristophe

I am not quite sure if the original GooglePlayStore works together with microG's gms, services and framework... I don't think so! Thus, I would leave also gms, services and framework as it is (untouched) if you want to use Google's original PlayStore.

On step 4, I am not aware of any direct resize2fs.exe-file for Windows. But instead of a virtual machine you could try and install WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) or Cygwin. I don't use either and do not know if the needed commands are available there. But if you try and are successful, please let me know and I will add a comment in the 1st post for this :)

so far much better. My phone is using T-Mobile but is unlocked with no carrier bloat.

2. G-Pay doesn't fail after having using Ready For or certain other apps.

3. Can finally wirelessly charge over 5W 🥳 . Charged @ 9 to 13.5W. Phone didn't get hot.

4. Smoother feel overall. Screen hanging, not scrolling, hasn't happened yet... shall see. (Stylus)

Hi all, I don't know if it's just me but I'm missing some stuff out of the keynote and promo videos. For example, widgets with animations were shown again and again, especially the weather. Not only in the launcher, but also on the AoD. In addition, a pedometer was shown in the keynote, it was a running stickman as a widget and then the number of steps were shown.

Carl has also addressed an API for the glyps, but I wasn't able to find it anywere.

However, I am very happy with the device. I hope a little for the August update, but at least the audio issues should be fixed.

I successfully unpacked my Garmin card to an 8GB Sandisk card I use in my phone. If you don't like switching cards all the time, there is a fairly simple procedure to copy the Garmin card to your own SD card. Google it. The software has worked perfectly since I implemented this work-around.

Here's my question for anybody who may know. It took about an hour to unpack my Garmin card to my Sandisk card. However, I just stepped up to a 16 GB Sandisk card. Will I have to go through that whole work-around procedure again to get Garmin to install on my new card due to its unique i.d. or is there some simpler method? I have looked for a thread on this subject. A link would be much appreciated if it exists.

[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] cm0002:
Unsure what happend, but I did a live boot of the latest TWRP to dump all the partitions for archival when it hung on the Fastboot Mode screen for a while and I had to force-shutdown and reissue the boot command and then TWRP booted fine.

But then it stopped booting to android and just keeps dropping to CrashDump (Also not a simple glitch, no matter how I try to reboot it back to system (From TWRP, from bootloader, Vol Up + power from CDM etc) it always goes back) no actions were performed in TWRP when it booted. I know to recover it with MSM, but I was curious if there was any way to recover data and dump the partitions like I was originally wanting to do (including /data)

If not, oh well, I already moved everything over to my Pixel Fold, this was more just for preservation of its current state (Well, before the brick anyways lmao)
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] BillGoss:
The phone can change slots if it had trouble booting. So try changing slots in bootloader mode and rebooting. This may get you back to where you were.

When in bootloader, run fastboot getvar current-slot to get the current slot. Then run fastboot set_active <the other slot: a or b>. You can also use fastboot --set-active=other to achieve the same result.

Did you download TWRP from the official website? Because that one is Android 11 only.
[Google Pixel Fold] cm0002:
For the past 3 or 4 phones i've had usually (and as i've advised others to do) going through T-Force on twitter they would unlock my phone as a courtesy after saying "I'm a devloper and I only want to unlock the bootloader and not take it to another network blah blah blah" even though it wasn't paid off and WAY less than 40 days the first go around (I think one time i had to ask again the next day, but that was it)

This time however, no matter what channel I used or who I got I was denied with "Per policy it must be 40days and paid off". Eventually, as a hail mary I emailed the CEO/Executive customer care and they actually unlocked it for me (YAY Root4Life!), but it doesn't bode well if I had to go that high up and it probably won't work for anyone else if you don't have a long established history with T-Mobile (For me I think the fact we've had them for 10+ years and have had numerous phones unlocked while on EIP and still remained on their network played a factor)

So yea, hopefully itll be better the next time around in 1-2 years lol
[Google Pixel Fold] cm0002:
Ngl, I had the thought of getting a CS job at TMO and then unlocking my phone as soon as I got access to the internal tool and then quit 😂
[Google Pixel Fold] cm0002:
Yea I figured as much. Although I doubt if all you did was you're own phone they would go that far, i think its more intended to go after people who try to sell unlock services themselves or be an "insider" for those unlock websites. Probably would still get blacklisted from ever working at TMO ever again though at the very least lmao
