Sorry to doublepost but as it seems, wifi still isn't working. Back then it just reloaded from memory when it was connected to pc.

In IE it writes "locating" so it really may be bad dns servers... but even if try to acces direct google IP. It stuck on locating and then write an error(connection lost..) I also tried to set up dns servers manually but it didn't work either.

Anything else I can try?
[XPERIA X1 General] Rudegar:
try

[XPERIA X1 General] Adanriel:
Well, ping is full of timeouts(95% bad).. tracert also, but it can found ip from hostname so dns works... Same with pinging my desktop or gateway. It can't be signal i'm sitting next to my router with full signal on pocket pc.

btw: i used vxUtil for this, i couldn't download network tools.
[XPERIA X1 General] Rudegar:
is the gateway and ip of the device

set to be on the same subnet as

other wifi devices connected?
[XPERIA X1 General] Adanriel:
I'm using dhcp.. only pc got static ip. Mobile got the next available ip. I can't find subnet on mobile but there is no reason for it to use different than standart(/24).

I think that than it wouldn't ping anything... but it did.. only 5% but it did.

edit: yes other wifi devices(notebooks) can connect.
[XPERIA X1 General] SomeoneSimple:
Keep in mind that the antenna of the X1 is very ****ty, when i am 1mtr removed from my router I get only mediocre reception, 2 'bars' according to Windows Mobile.

When I go to another room, the reception is lost, although WM says its still connected.

Does standing next to the router help anything? (ping)
[XPERIA X1 General] Adanriel:
Well I though so also... but even if i was less than a feet from antenna ping didn't change. I tried to look at it from other side, i mean what if problem is with router. So I updated firmware... and now it's working.. i can be nearly 10 meters away from router (between is atleast 1m wide stone wall). And with 1 bar I'm connected with real speed of 1Mb(1.5 is max). I got old notebook with also don't have n type wifi. And it's about the same distance. So it's nt bad.

Thank you all for help. And if anyone have similar problem with ZyXel wifi router, try firmware upgrade.

Hi guys, I'm currently waiting for 7days for Xiaomi to Unlock my phone, Redmi Note 10 Pro, I want to change the ROM to Pixel experience Rom cos I'm tired of the MiUI bugs.

Is the current pixel experience ROM stable? Would I get fast charging?

Has the battery drain issues been solved?

Also can I at least get a good camera experience?

Any valuable insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hello, I have car launcher pro and I want to put an animated gif in the background with several images, passing the images with a JPG works according to the image but with gif it doesn't work, does anyone know how to do it and is it possible to have an animation in the background???
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] newhere1993:
Hi there folks,

I've got a question about an amedia auto system.

The car in which the system is mounted belongs to the son of a friend of mine which unfortunately passed a way very unexpected.

The guy provided the amedia auto system with a pincode and they dont knoe what the pincode is. Off course its now hard to sell the car without the pincode since nobody wants a car without a using radio system.

Is there anyway to delete this pincode for my friends?

I hope anyone can help me

Grtz Ronny
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] jlbooth:
Condolences to your friend for loss of his son.

I would suggest researching how to get into the recovery menus on the head unit. Does the unit have a RST (aka reset button on the front)? If you can get into the recovery menus, you should be able to do a factory reset which should clear out the PIN. Usually this involves pressing the reset button using a toothpick or paperclip while powering on the head unit which will get you into the hidden menus where a factory reset can be done.

Otherwise suggest replacing the head unit with another unit before selling.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] newhere1993:
Thanks!

Yes I was hoping to find someone to help me get into the recovery menu. I tried to google it but I am not very formilliar with this brands make en models. Like: is Amedia a brand? All we could find is Amedia Auto. Is there any models known?

Gtz Ronny
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] jlbooth:
Where did you come up with the "A Media" brand? Labels on the unit? This has me wondering just how locked down is the unit? If you can get into the Android menus to show the About page, please post a screenshot here.

I'm pretty sure there is a YT video showing how to get into recovery mode for Dasaita branded units and I know it works on several other brands. While it might not be the exact brand/model you have, the process should be similar, you could perhaps give the technique shown in this video a try:

Hope this helps. Without the about page screenshot, it's going to be nearly impossible to figure out exactly what brand/model you have.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] newhere1993:
The guy had a printed usermanual in the car and amedia is the best I could find.

In this manual we saw this picture which included a QR code.

If my pictures work I included some. You see some kind of menu(picture) but if you touch anything you get asked to enter a pincode(picture)
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] jlbooth:
It appears this is an MTCD based XTrons branded unit.

I got that information based on the MTCD_GS designation from the picture. The letters following MTCD - "GS" in this case normally designates a given manufacturer identifier. I just did a little research and found some others here on XDA who have XTrons branded units that have MCU identifier MTCD_GS.

You should be able to get into the recovery menu by pressing and holding the RES button with a paperclip until the lights blink on the buttons below the screen.

View attachment 6016957
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] newhere1993:
Is there any special way how to do this? First time I tried I saw the buttonlights flash a few times so I let go the RES button. It didnt work though. System just started. When I wanted to try again I never got the lights flashing again. Tried 3 or 4 times
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Pavel-71:
Here are instructions for entering recovery MTCD GS 5.1.1 rk3188, try the power button or RST #7
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] newhere1993:
Doesnt seem to work at my unit. It did with the reset button. But only once, couldnt get it to work twice
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] newhere1993:
When I hold power button it shifts to the clock. Not a black screen, is that normal?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Pavel-71:
The previous owner probably remapped the buttons, the change is only possible from the factory settings and you don't have access there. If RST doesn't work, I don't know, maybe try looking for another way, everyone has it differently, here are some tips I found:

-To enter the recovery, we use the "Reset" button. Hold the "Reset" button for 5-7 seconds, release and immediately press again for 3 seconds, release. The device will boot into "Recovery" mode.

-Press reset for 5-10 seconds, quickly release and press again for 3 seconds.

-Press and hold RST, press and hold volume + house button for 2 seconds. While holding the house, press the volume button 2 times and immediately hold it a second time. Immediately in the pressed state, click on the house twice. We release it and the reboot starts.

-I press and hold the POWER button, the backlight of the button starts to flash and a click is heard from the speakers. I release the power and press and hold the MENU button, the backlight of the button starts flashing and the speakers click. I release it and press the POWER button twice (briefly).

-Long press "Back" on the radio that is on. The LEDs will start flashing, then briefly press "Back" again, maybe twice. Loading into recovery.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] newhere1993:
Where did you get this information about how to get in the recovery menu. I think you are right and this should be the way. I once made it to make the buttonlights blink but that didnt yet open the recovery menu. But now I cant seem to get the buttons blink again.

I think I am doing something wrong so perhaps a more specific explanation would be the solution
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] newhere1993:
I think you are right and this should be the way. They blinked once by doing this, cant seem to get them blink again though. Is it necessary to have a specific screen in front when pressing the RES button? Or can it be done at any screen?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] jlbooth:
Once the headunit is fully booted up, using a paperclip press and hold the RES button for about 10 seconds until you see the lights flash 3 times. This should cause it to power cycle. Immediately after the lights flash, start tapping the RES button once per second while the unit is coming back up. It should go into recovery mode. I just tried this with the SYGAV/Dasaita head unit in my car and I was successful at getting into recovery mode 3 times in a row.

Be sure that you are pressing the RES button as it should feel like a button being pressed when the paperclip is in the hole in the screen. I suggest you practice tapping the RES button to know for sure you're pressing it as it has a distinct tactile feel when pressed. The thing is the timing of the RES button press in the boot sequence.

To navigate the recovery screen short tap the screen to cycle through the selections, then once you're on the desired selection, long touch the screen to activate your selection. You should find selections to factory reset in the recovery mode menu.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] newhere1993:
Does it matter what screen is showing when I press the RES? I can feel/hear the RES click when I press it so I am 100% sure I am doing it right.

Does it make difference if I press it when the pincode request is showing or the normal screen?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] jlbooth:
I would think it wouldn't matter what screen is showing. However I will say that when I was tapping the RES during the first few seconds of seeing the initial splash screen/logo the unit entered recovery.

You did say you managed to get the lights to flash at least once before? That suggests to me that the pin code thing isn't overly secure.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] newhere1993:
Yeah I managed it once to get them flash. It truely is a strange device. Radio is playing but I cant press anything on the screen.

I will make a small video ASAP perhaps that can clear something up

When you pressed the RES button, did u wait until it was done booting?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] jlbooth:
"Did I wait until it was done booting"? No, it goes into recovery seconds after showing the logo screen when tapping the RES button. If done correctly, it should not boot into Android but go straight into the recovery menu.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] newhere1993:
I made a small video to show it doesnt do nothing.

The logos whoch come up first are the VW logo than android logo
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] newhere1993:
Made some pictures hoping it could help identify
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] marchnz:
The.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] newhere1993:
The?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] jlbooth:
The moment you see that VW logo, maybe even just a second before, start tapping the reset button. The object is to catch it before it starts booting into Android to get into the recovery menu.
[General Questions and Answers] SpecialTricks:
Hi everyone,

I recently started using Obsidian, and I'm really enjoying it. I'm also planning to set up a digital garden, which is a way of organizing your notes and ideas in a visual way.

I'm using Syncthing to sync my notes between my phone and computer. I wanted to do this for free, and Syncthing is a great option.

However, I'm getting an error when I try to create a vault on my phone.

The error message is "Error:

Imgsh: fast, simple image sharing service

imgsh.net

Failed to choose folder: NoActivity found to handle Intent {act=android.intent.action.OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE flg=Oxc3..."

I've searched the Obsidian forums, and I've seen that this error is related to custom ROMs. I'm using a custom ROM on my phone, so that's probably the cause of the problem.

Unable to access storage on android

Steps to reproduce I just installed the app Expected result The app works as usual Actual result The app opens, but you are unable to create/select a vault. The error is “Error: Failed to choose folder: NoActivity found to handle Intent {act=android.intent.action.OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE flg=Oxc3...

forum.obsidian.md

I'm not sure if there's a solution to this problem. I've tried searching for a solution, but I haven't found anything yet.

I'm also not sure if other syncing apps, such as GDrive, Autosync, Foldersync, or Resillio Sync, will work with custom ROMs.

I'm really frustrated with this problem. I was excited to use Obsidian, but now I'm not sure what to do.

If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Hello all

I have a problem with my Oppo for 2-3 weeks now. The battery life is a disaster. I have also completely reset the device. Currently I am at 28% at 2 hrs DOT. Consumption via app inconspicuous:

I have BetterBatteryStats installed (rights granted via ADB). But can not decipher it exactly. I attached the Logfile.

On the measurements of yesterday (time after I disconnected the device from the ladegert) I exported a log file after 4 h 41 m. I have almost not used the device. What I notice in the logs is that the device was awake for 57 min. But I do not see which app or which process sucks the battery.

Can someone help me?

Thanks a lot.

[General Questions and Answers] dome8802:

[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Battery life is determined by a number of factors, including

Screen brightness:

The brighter the screen, the more battery power it consumes.

Display type:

OLED displays are more energy-efficient than LCD displays.

Device performance:

More powerful devices with faster processors tend to consume more battery power.

App usage:

Some apps are more battery-intensive than others. For example, gaming apps and apps that use GPS or Bluetooth tend to consume more battery power.

Network connectivity:

Connecting to Wi-Fi or cellular networks consumes more battery power than being in airplane mode.

Ambient temperature:

Extreme temperatures, both hot and cold, can reduce battery life.

Other factors that can affect battery life include

Battery age:

Batteries degrade over time, so an older battery will not hold its charge as well as a new battery.

Battery capacity:

Devices with larger batteries will have longer battery life than devices with smaller batteries.

Operating system:

Newer versions of Android are typically more energy-efficient than older versions.
[General Questions and Answers] TNSMANI:
BT seems to have been on. Anything like a watch connected?

There was no data connection for nearly 6 hours though you had a great mobile signal as per the stats. But the great signal was not enough to avoid wakelocks/alarms connected to poor signal. Plus the signal seemed to be fluctuating. Something seems to be wrong with your provider.

Hotspot seems to be on and that is a drainer.

Facebook, Heytap, all drained heavily. In addition, location/scanning seems to be on which also drains.

The most curious thing is that all the background uploads/downloads happened on mobile data. Not a single byte via wifi which was on the whole time. More than 60 MB downloads/uploads happened. That is another huge drainer. So something is wrong with your wifi too.

So first investigate and set right your modem/router issue. Then take care of BT, Hotspot, Facebook, Heytap etc. Then switch off Location/scanning. After completing these, provide another idle dump file so that we see the drain as well as investigate your mobile signal.
[General Questions and Answers] TNSMANI:
These have no role while we are investigating idle drain.

This is not universally true and differs with the implementation by the OEMs. For example, in my own experience, A11 is better than A13 for OP 9 Pro (I am talking about stock ROMs). And this user is running A13 though not on an OP device.
[General Questions and Answers] dome8802:
thanks for your quick reply

what do you mean exactly? what can i check?

hotspot was off

Facebook i have deactivated the permission for background activity but what is heytap? i found anything

should i switch it completely off?

wifi was also off in the night

i have a second SIM that i don't use and is deactivated. should i remove it?
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
The post you referred to was of general nature. :)

Anyways, IIRC these are factors that can shrink battery life when an Android device - it does not matter what brand & model - is in idle mode

Background apps:

Even when you are not using them, some apps continue to run in the background and consume battery power.

Network connectivity:

Connecting to Wi-Fi or cellular networks consumes battery power, even when the device is idle.

Location services:

Location services use GPS or other technologies to track your location. This can be useful for apps like maps and navigation, but it can also consume battery power, even when the device is idle.

Push notifications:

Push notifications allow apps to send you alerts and updates even when you are not using them. This can be convenient, but it can also consume battery power.

Screen brightness:

Even when the screen is turned off, it still consumes a small amount of battery power.

Ambient temperature:

Extreme temperatures, both hot and cold, can reduce battery life.

You may feel free to delete this post if you rate it OFF-TOPIC. :D
[General Questions and Answers] TNSMANI:
For the moment leave it and concentrate on the other issues. We will come back to it once the next dump file is available, if necessary.

Heytap is a cloud service used by OP, OPPO and its sister concerns. It collects data in the background but I don't know what it is used for. If possible, freeze any mention of Heytap, if you are not using it. You can check THIS.

Location/scanning are not required always and certainly not during sleep. They only collect data and send it out. So it is advisable to switch them off when not actively using them.

That is surprising because of this:

Check again because normally when BBS says something, it tends to be correct.

Regarding the second SIM, if it is deactivated, it is better to remove it.

And what about BT? Even that is not required while sleeping.

While taking the next measurement, enable both wifi and mobile data.
[General Questions and Answers] dome8802:
here is the new file with location off, bluetooth off, wifi and mobile data on

i don't know why it shows Wifi On 1 h 34 m 9 s. i have switched on wifi an than locked the screen and went to sleep

could it be a hardware problem? or an app that turns on and off wifi?
[General Questions and Answers] dome8802:
if it indicates a hardware problem, i can still send the device in under warranty
[General Questions and Answers] TNSMANI:
This is not a proper idle dump file. The screen was on for more than 2 minutes before the file was saved. Please post a proper file.

Wifi will be shown as on for the time it was actually on (being used). Rest of the time wifi also goes to sleep. So it is correct.

As I suspected and commented earlier, you have mobile signal issues. Unless it is "Great' for most of the time atleast, you will have heavy drain. As you can see, it was never 'Great', only 'Moderate' for some of the time and no signal at all for more than 7 hours! No wonder your phone drains like crazy.

If you have better signal in any place at your home, place the phone there the whole time while you are running BBS. If not, still post a new proper file but your drain may not be under control unless you change to a provider whose signal is much better at your home.

Still the location/scanning issue is there. Did you switch them off? They are two different things, one is 'Location' and the other is 'Wifi and bluetooth scanning' under Settings and both should be off.

Please post a fresh file.
[General Questions and Answers] dome8802:
but the operator is one of the best in switzerland and i have always full signal strenght...and the battery drain i have it everywhere, not only at home

on the last night the file before, i had Great Signal (): 8 h 50 m 44 s 100.0%

can it maybe be a hardware issue? or sim card (i can also switch to e-sim)
[General Questions and Answers] TNSMANI:
The operator may be the best but coverage may not be 100%.

Now it is a question of your full signal strength vs BBS showing different results on different days. May be uninstall BBS, reboot and reinstall the latest version of BBS from the Play Store before running the test (if you are now running the XDA version). If you are running the Play Store version now, install the XDA version.

It can be hardware or software, at the moment, I am not able to say anything with certainty. If your warranty will last atleast for a month or more, you can wait for these test results. Otherwise return it and we can run the tests on the new device. :D
