I don’t know why last time, but I was able to enter Android 13 and the WiFi was normal. Then yesterday I swiped the gsi again and now I can’t get in. But I found that I can enter the gsi of Android 13 by flashing the boot of lineage OS, but the WiFi cannot be used.

I have suddenly got connection problems with my Oneplus Buds 2 pro. The left bud is not working, and the right one is stuttering. The left one is appearing and disappearing in the settings menu. It pairs with the buds without problem, but I can't use them anymore for music... I tried the following things.

- Disconnect, unpair, pair again

- Reset network/bluetooth settings on my Oneplus11

- Reset the buds in the budcase, by pressing 10 seconds on the button untill blinking red lights

It still does not work on my Oneplus11

But the strange thing the Buds are still working fine on my laptop...., so it seems to be a problem with my Oneplus11.

What else can I do?
[OnePlus 11] surajpai524:
Mine works fine... check if there is any firmware update for buds. Also check which codec is being used for playback. Update OnePlus Buds app if present.
[OnePlus 11] dumbl3:
Mine were working fine. I was running the latest firmware, but i factory resetted it. Now I am not able to upgrade to the latest firmware, because as I said before the left buds keeps connecting and losing connection. So everytime I try to upgrade the firmware it fails. But it is not the firmware problem because it happened before I did the factory reset when I was still running on the latest firmware. For the codec I have selected 'use system selection (default)'. Here is a video, of the left bud losing connection. The right bud is playing music, but it is stuttering. Strange thing is, the buds work fine on my laptop. My sony headphone wh1000xm4 also don't have any problems on my oneplus11.. I am at a loss, what it could it be?
[OnePlus 11] 105abs:
how do you connect the buds to google devices?

Only the phone is showing up.
[OnePlus 11] surajpai524:
Looks like hardware issue.
[OnePlus 11] surajpai524:
It happens automatically when you pair.

Try:-

Settings -> Google -> Devices and Sharing -> Devices -> Saved Devices -> Automatically Save devices.

Then unpair and pair again
[OnePlus 11] 105abs:
Nothing is there, I reset the buds.

but now no popup appears.

and nothing appear in nearby devices.
[OnePlus 11] surajpai524:
Did you click saved devices? Is there anything ?
[OnePlus 11] dumbl3:
Looks like someone's hijacking my thread, anyways.

@surajpai524

You say it look like a hardware issue, I agree but it is still strange. The buds work fine on my laptop. But they don't work on my Oneplus11, and I also have the exact same issues when I tested them on my girlfriends Xiaomi12T Pro. How come it only seems to have issues with android phones and not with my windows laptop?
[OnePlus 11] surajpai524:
It could be the laptop is considering a delay during disconnections to actually verify. Within that if it's gets connected again, it might continue to work. Just a guess.

Try different bluetooth earphones with OnePlus 11 and test it.
[OnePlus 11] dumbl3:
Interesting thought, although I don't think that's it because I have tested it. My Sony Bluetooth headphones 🎧 work just fine on my OP11, my girlfriends Xiaomi12T (and my laptop..)
[OnePlus 11] 105abs:
yes
[Touch HD General] pla_y:
I just had my HTC Touch HD T8282 with MW version 1.14.403.3(22273) WWE. I have several questions and hope to find answers here.

1. Google maps were not already installed, I installed it by myself from mobile.google.com. The program works fine but it does not find any satellite. Is it normal ? I am living in Turkey.

2. Should I upgrade my OS to 1.19... by using the OliNex ? I mean are there any big differences between those two versions ? I don't see any lag on my device currently. Are there so many new properties coming with the new version ? I am using my pda mainly for business.

3. This is my biggest problem. From Start>Programs>Messenger I open Windows Live Messenger. I choose sign in as Busy, Online or Away, etc. Then I click sign in and proceed to mail&password screen. But at that screen I cannot write my e-mail !! I can write my password thus I cannot click the sign in button because the mail is not written. Its the 2 of the 5 steps. What should I do? If the upgrade will fix this issue I will do it immediately. Messenger is a must for me in pda.

4. What is the best source for downloading .cab game files. :)

Thanks.
[Touch HD General] dedypmi:
google maps no need any satellite you just take data from the google server, all u need is an active internet connection.

u can try IM+ messenger or ebuddy java.

for games u can try some arcade emulator for classic gb, snes or megasis. its really fun 4 me
[Touch HD General] pla_y:
Please someone help at least about messenger problem !!
[Touch HD General] johnpatcher:
Maybe you should try a cooked rom, with some newer sources.
[Touch HD General] Coude:
By default, Google Maps doesn't use GPS, since you don't need GPS to show an address on the map, you just need an internet connection.

GPS is useful is you want to locate precisely your current position on the map. In this case, you can force Google Maps to use GPS by going to Menu > Use GPS. (Note that if GPS is not activated, Google Maps will still be able to locate you on the map. I will use your GSM cellular location and show map the area covered by this cellular and in which you are supposed to be)
[Touch HD General] pla_y:
Okay I understand but using googlemaps via GPRS outside is not free obviously, that's why I ask if GPS works on googlemaps so that it can be free. But it does not either find any satellite, I think this is because of I am in Turkey. What is the best free GPS program just using satellites not any kind of other conneciton. Thanks.

By the way I figured out the messenger problem !! :)
[Touch HD General] johnpatcher:
As long as your maps aren't cached already Google Maps will have to download it. Therefore Google Maps isn't a good solution for outdoor navigation with GPRS (3g), if you have no special data flatrate.

GPS is avaible on the whole globe, even in Turkey :p.

VisualGPSce is free. A better solution (based on the source of VisualGPSce is BeeLineGPS, which you can try for free 30 days long.

Maybe you should describe what you have done, so others can make profit out of it.
[Touch HD General] pla_y:
How I solved the messenger problem;

I opened the windows live program. From the options I selected the ''Switch Windows ID''. After that I had the ability of entering my mail adress !!

Can you also say something about: :)

2. Should I upgrade my OS to 1.19... by using the OliNex ? I mean are there any big differences between those two versions ? I don't see any lag on my device currently. Are there so many new properties coming with the new version ? I am using my pda mainly for business.

Thank you!!
[Touch HD General] johnpatcher:
I think its up to you, but if there is nothing you are unhappy with and you don't need some of the functionalities provided with the cooked roms you shouldn't do it at all.

Flashing the HardSPL means that you could use your warranty. Even if there is a way backwards, it could get tricky, so at any rate you will have to read through the various topics, so you know what you are doing.

There is also a USPL, which don't changes your SPL, but your device could get bricked, if you try to flash a non-working rom.
[Touch HD General] pla_y:
what functionalities are provided with the cooked roms ?? I really have no idea about that..

[Redmi Note 12 4G] asterios2000:
It's a general question but it has to do with my sister's Redmi note 12 4g.

She was getting a lot of ads and slow screens so decided to go to a local vodafone store. There the employee asked hew if she knew her google account. She said ok (she thought she remembered it).

Long story sort the employee did a factory reset (i think from mi recovery because she mentioned a black screen with blue buttons). After the phone restarted it showed the First Google Account screen (basically frp lock). But my sister couldn't remember her password and she hadn't registered her gmail with her phone number. She did have another mail registered but it was closed.

After lots of tries and youtube watching I managed to Bypass FRP and now her phone is working like a charm (with a new google account though).

So my questions are:

If she need again at some point to do a factory reset (through settings this time). Will the FRP come back asking her to log in by using the first account ? Or with the new one?

Bypassing the FRP once makes the device vulnerable?

And if she wants to give the phone to her kid, is there a safe way / guide to remove FRP and/or her google account before factory reset.

Thank you all in advance for your time.
[Redmi Note 12 4G] chickendrop89:
--- (1) ----

- It will prompt you to login to the primary account added before the factory reset.

--- (2) ---

- Probably not ..?

--- (3) ---

- I don't understand what do you mean by this question, but if you simply log out of all google accounts before doing the factory reset, you will not be prompted to log in (no FRP) after the first boot 🤷.
[Redmi Note 12 4G] asterios2000:
(1) Which one is supposed to be the 'primary' account?

a) The one that she first installed when she got the device (which does not remember the password), or

b) the new one (the one that I created myself? )

(3) This question is more like the first one. The thing is that I'm afraid to go to settings again to do a full factory reset because if I do it will ask to login to the forgotten account (or so I believe). But you already answered my question. To sum up, just by deleting the 'new' google account FIRST and THEN performing a full factory reset will not ask for an account and the phone will be exactly like when she bought it, right? asking to set up everything from the start?! Do i get it right?!
[Redmi Note 12 4G] SFAZ38:
Take a look at this discussion. In my opinion, you need to delete first account that you used when setting up your device to be able to successfully factory reset your device.
[General Questions and Answers] Snow_fox:
I have been installing custom roms for over 10 years now, but I am really beginning to question what I am doing and the nature of android altogether. My basic understanding of android is when you buy a specific device the manufacturer is suppose to update it ideally a few times. Google itself issues some security patches through google play updates. So, both google and Manufacturer will update the phones security for a given time then the phone will simply receive monthly patches from google.

So, once the device is EOL it will no longer receive updates from the manufacturer, but receive the monthly google provided android security patches. This opens up your device to attacks and exploits because while android itself is getting updates, your firmware and everything one step under the OS is still the same. Is this correct so far? if so, it then leads me to degoogled roms and if play services aren't on the phone, then does this introduce an even larger attack surface because they no longer get manufacturer or google updates? In trying to keep up with android versions does unlocking the bootloader and installing roms to try and keep up with recent android updates, then immediately gut the safety you were trying to get in the first place by installing a more up to date version? I've been mulling over all of this for a day or two and it' giving me a headache.
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
I run stock N10+'s. As far as I'm concerned anything from Android 9 up is relatively secure without updates* unless you do stupid things.

This N10+ hasn't been undated since 11.2019, last factory reset was over 3 years ago. It's never had malware on this load. I don't baby it either but use a few safeguards and common sense if I get on a bad site. This is what Android is capable of. Part of my safeguards are having a locked bootloader, two firewalls and not allowing firmware upgrades or updates that can damage it. I'm careful about any installs and don't sample apps. Most my apps have been used for years and any that don't implicitly need internet access are firewall including app updates. Playstore is disabled.

Rule #1- if the firmware is fast, stable and fulfilling its mission, let it be! Upgrades/updates can and do break devices for various reasons including non standardized hardware. Samsung is notorious for this. Every time you mess the firmware you changed the playing field for better or worse. Invariably it will require time and energy to find work arounds (if they exist) and troubleshoot.

*12 I think it was had a huge hole that needed patched; newest isn't always the safest🤣
[General Questions and Answers] Snow_fox:
If that is the case, why then do security experts recommend buying a new phone when your current model goes EoL?
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
Money honey and save the dumb bunnies... of course there is no saving dumb bunnies.

If the holes were as big as they claim I been dead meat long by now.

I disable wifi; I don't use it. Hole closed.

I watch the download folder like a hawk and nothing leaves it unless vetted. Even more strict with app installation (no updates), the number #1 infection vector. The system is locked down to prohibit installation of apps. I rarely download anything from Gmail or texts. Delete when in doubt...

I will back out of bad sites (most are automatically blocked by nextdns), close the browser or tab if that fails, clear browser cache, cookies and if all that fails clear the data.

Brave is pretty bullet proof. Karma firewall is also running so I can see and block any app or service accessing the internet. It's rather basic but works well and uses little battery.

Like I said anything from Android 9 up is relatively secure unless you do stupid things.

It's a bit of an experiment as the worst I would have to do is a factory reset. Change passwords.

Critical data is redundantly backed up as well as being stored on the SD card. I tracked down any abnormal behaviors stat. Zero tolerance for any malware. If not eliminated in 2 hours, factory reset.

So with minimal time and maintenance this OS load has run for over 3 years now, soon to be 3.5 years. The OS remains fast and stable on this heavily used device.
[General Questions and Answers] Snow_fox:
What money do third party security experts stand to make exactly?

You keep talking about what you do, but I didn't ask anything at all about what people do, I asked why certain things are the way they are. You also contradict yourself. You say it's secure unless you do stupid things, but then you say if there was a hole you'd have been screwed by now implying you do things which would result in a risk of malware. Where ever you stand and whatever you do is tertiary irrelevant to what I want to know.
[Touch GSM General] blackplatypus:
Hi, i broke my Elfin display (T-mobile unlocked) my screen looks like this: (touchscreen is still working): . I think i need the entire screen+digitizer thing and not only the digitizer? therefore this ? http://cnn.cn/shop/touch-screen-p-1900.html
[Touch GSM General] scorpion66:
Unlucky

The touch screen has 2 parts. The plastic outer screen is the digitizer and the lcd screen is the one underneath. When you take it appart the digitizer stays in the top of the housing and the lcd is attached to the middle bit.

Looks like you broke the LCD for sure but maybe the digitzer is ok - you will see as soon as you take it apart. The post here about how to disasemble a touch has clear pictures so check it out its quite easy to take apart if you follow the guide.
[Touch GSM General] Imyman:
Yeah that definitely looks like you broke the LCD which is underneath the digitizer. Either take it to a service rep...or if you think you're up to it.....you can attempt to take the phone apart and replace the LCD yourself.

[Touch HD General] attig:
Hi everyone,

I have a peculiar problem. Somehow something (probably a tiny piece of cloth) is stuck at the very end of the stylus holder hole/sleeve. Now the stylus doesn’t get completely in anymore and I don’t think such small tweezers exist to extract this object.

I am considering opening the device up but the upper right screw has a sticker saying “void” on it, and I really wouldn’t want to void the warranty.

Has anyone had this problem before? If so how did you resolve it?

Thanks
[Touch HD General] johnpatcher:
I think opening up the whole device should be the last option, as you will loose your warranty probably.

What have you tried so far? Maybe you can go into the sleeve with something like a conductor and try to pull this tiny piece of cloth out.
[Touch HD General] attig:
I've tried with a toothpick but it was too small. I am thinking of buying a disposable medical syringe that should be longer and provide some suction to ge the thing out, but I am a bit scared of damaging something by "going to deep"

[Touch HD General] attig:
Thanks for the advice everyone. I've tried an uncurled paperclip. Even managed to make a tiny hook at the end of it but nothing. whatever is in there is well stuck to the bottom.

I am thinking of sending it back to htc under warranty. I'll play dumb and say I have no clue why I can't get my sylus completely in (which is not too false). I am hoping they'll open it up to check whether there is some fault, and, if they really find something stuck in there they might just take it off.

What do you guys think?
[Touch HD General] Parg:
You should try something like that:

[General Questions and Answers] t00namix:
Hi!

I've been contemplating the idea of buying a new SIM card for my dual SIM phone to establish a dedicated professional number. The purpose of this new number would be exclusive communication within my professional network while keeping my personal number confidential. The primary intent is to utilize this new number for WhatsApp calls and WhatsApp messages, with minimal reliance on the standard cellular network.

So, It appears that I can manage two WhatsApp accounts concurrently, one being the standard version and the other the Business version, which seems to provide a solution to my initial dilemma.

However, as I ventured to insert a second SIM card into my phone, I encountered a minor setback. My intention was to keep the second SIM card almost permanently in "airplane mode" to conserve battery life and avoid incurring data charges or making calls, given its pay-as-you-go nature. I planned to activate it (by disabling airplane mode) only during "critical" moments when I needed to use the regular phone line. Unfortunately, it appears that I cannot place a single SIM card in airplane mode while keeping the other one active.

Am I missing a potential solution here? Are there any viable alternatives that won't detrimentally impact my battery life?

I'm eager to hear your insights and recommendations.

Thank you all!

Hi out there,

I'm using XDA forum for a long time to inform myself about possibilites to flash and get tools and roms for flashing.

I flashed a few devices with custom roms and luckly did not brick a device yet.

I'm a pretty experienced Linux user because Windows sucks xD.

I started to use Linux in 2009, and since 2018 a hobby is my free Proxmox Server running a several containers.
