[Samsung Galaxy A20 Questions & Answers] Jaydee<3:
Hello,

I have a Samsung A20s, which is a hand-me-down from my aunt. Unfortunately, the volume down button isn't working. The main issue I'm facing right now is that the screen has gone black, and it's been this way for the entire day. When I woke up, the screen was functioning perfectly, but at some point, it just stopped turning on.

Every time I plug it in or press the power button, it vibrates repeatedly until it seems to stop. Fast forward to the time I'm typing this, it has stopped vibrating when I press the power button, but the screen remains black. I'm at a loss about what to do. I need my phone for school, and I'd really like to attempt a DIY solution before considering professional help.

Any advice or suggestions you could provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Please be aware that we have device specific sections on this forum. As a courtesy we will move your post to the Galaxy A20 section but in the future we expect you to use the Search function before posting.

As for your volume button, you have two choices. Either take it to a shop and have it repaired, or get a new phone. Smartphones are complicated devices, and unless you happen to be professionally trained and have the required specialty tools, any attempt at DIY repair will just damage the phone.

Hi, I used to make watch faces for my Gear S3 watch, but since I was robbed recently I want to buy a new one.

I kinda regret buying the Gear S3 because of it's high price, so this time I'm looking to buy one of these cheap Chinese watches. Haylou, IWO etc.

I wish to make some watch faces and maybe some apps for it but I cannot find a SDK and I'm not sure I understand the info I find on the internet and here.

Is it too hard compared to Tizen and Wear OS? when talking about the cheaper ones, is there any of these cheap smartwatch that's relatively easy to do what I want?

Sorry if it was already answered here, I'm just not understanding it properly.
[Other SmartWatches] vxsw:
you'll not find. also you'll get a lot of limitations, such as 1mb wf size, hw performance, no alpha gradient, etc. also you can not make any apps for this watches. only watch faces. and all of it, if you'll find a way to upload custom stuff. by default it's not allowed.

if you still want to try, I'll recomed you to look at watches with tbui wf format support. it have a fine enough abilities to compare with other (gradient alpha, buttons, switchable or configurable regions, animations, duplicating of elements, etc.). also you'll get an ability to get a lot of resources from few additional incompatible wf formats.
[Other SmartWatches] Ikelaiho:
I have a cheap chinese smart watch L21plus. With the Fitpro app. I would love to port additional watch faces. Can you help
[Other SmartWatches] vxsw:
depends of level of help you want.

I can:

- try to decode wf format for reading at least resources

- try to sniff servers api to get wf lists (required some actions from your side)

I will not:

- analyze wf structure for writing (just required a lot of tests with device and have a chances to brick it), but still may give you some hints

- make an wf editor

if you fine enough with it and accept it, we can try.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] jrg67:
Sorry for the long post.

TL;DR - screen seems to have a odd color calibration. Sometimes feels a bit too cool but at the same time, reddish/pinkish hue. Sometimes it looks fine! I compare to my 7 pro but always seems to look identical at the time. Am I going nuts? Anyone else?

Full story -

I got my 8 pro and during set up, I thought the screen looked a little off from what I'm used to on the 7 pro. It immediately reminded me of my original 7 pro that I had Google replace because the calibration was messed up causing everything to have a greenish hue.

Now my 8 pro feels like it has a reddish/pinkish hue, but only sometimes! That's the part that is making me nuts! Every time I think I've got a great example of the calibration being screwy, I power on my 7 pro and pull up the exact same image from the exact same app and guess what... they look identical sitting right next to each other.

I think my replacement 7 pro's screen color calibration was as close to perfect as it gets and every time I have both phone right next to each other looking at the same exact images, they look identical but for some weird reason, when it's just my 8 pro, I feel like something is off just a bit.

Another thing I have noticed between my 7 and 8 pros is that the adaptive brightness is more aggressive on the 8 and I have to keep bumping it up to match the 7 when comparing. I've also noticed that dark mode scrolling through the Google feed when swiping the home screen is lighter than the 7. Not sure about other apps but that one is very noticeable. I also tested at really low brightness on both as well as jacked up to 100% on both phones. Incidentally, the 8 pro is supposed to be brighter than the 7 but I think my two phones look about the same at 100% so maybe that super brightness only works in direct sunlight?

I can only hold on to my 7 pro for about another week or so before I have to send it in for trade. I bought the 8 pro through Best Buy and have no clue what their policy/procedure is for warranty exchanges/defective phone.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] jrg67:
Well, sucks that apparently nobody else has experienced the same issue as me but I went ahead and contacted Best Buy and they replaced the phone. Here's the fun part, the replacement I got has the pinkish hue on the AOD that has been making its rounds on Reddit and the android news sites.

I contacted Best Buy again and they refused to send me another, said if this one is defective then I have to bring it to the store for a full refund return. I then contacted Google support and they refused to send me a replacement too citing its a new purchase from a 3rd party retailer and told me either I can mail them the phone for repair or I can bring it to an authorized repair shop.

I have until the 26th on the original phone to just return everything and be done with it. I'm not sure if I should though. Anyone have any advice? Anyone think this pinkish AOD issue can and will be fixed via software?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] robbbzilla:
Return the phone.

Buy another but if possible, directly from Google.

Or get something else.

Best Buy gave you two new devices and both were unsatisfactory. Google will refer you to where you purchased the device and offer repairs only.

So your only option if you are unsatisfied with what you have is to return it.

Then you have the power to choose what you want to do. Sucks if you lose out on the pre order deals but I don't see any other options.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] jrg67:
Thanks for the advice. One thing that sucks is if I keep my 7 pro, I'll have to factory reset it because the battery has been draining quicker than it should. So either way, I'm not saving any time on that end. I just don't know if it's me being unreasonable and it's my eyes being screwy.

You are right though, I should have just bought it direct from Google but the extra $130 on the trade is what lured me over to BB. If I'm honest, I'm not really all that impressed with the pixel watch 2 so I guess I don't mind going back to my galaxy watch 4 except the downside is that if I return everything, I probably could have sold the PW2 for $300 "used" for 10 days.

We'll see. I'll sleep on it and decide what to do in the next day or 2. I guess the other option is to go and waste an hour or 2 at best buy, tell them the story and see what they have to say.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] HipKat:
I guess I got lost on the part where side by side, the same image on both phones looked identical, but one thing you're right about for sure is the Adaptive Brightness on the P8P. I have to bump mine up too.

Look, you're matrixing this whole thing, most likely
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] jrg67:
Trust me, you're not the only one to be lost by that. That's the exact reason why I asked if I'm going nuts haha
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] robbbzilla:
I don't know if you have tried resetting the phone? Or even using the Pixel flash tool from Google to flash and restore the phone. Set up as a new device and set up manually everything except phone and messages. Then you will know if the issue persists that it is a hardware issue or not. There is also a chance that it resolves the issue and is some software bug or corruption.

I would at least back up and reset and see if there is any changes.

Alternatively since you got a good deal is to let Google repair it. If they can't repair it properly then they will send you a refurbished unit. A refurbished unit might be better as any flaws should theoretically be fixed assuring you a good device. I do believe in the US you also have a lemon law. After you repair it so many times and it doesn't work you can get a new replacement.

If you go the repair route through Google might be your best option at this point and could save you a lot of money.

I have a question: Can i install the stock CN Rom and then, add the magisk app ? and with magisk app, its true that i can install android auto and multilanguage support?

Its son frustrating the issue with the network connection
[Xiaomi Poco F5 / Redmi Note 12 Turbo (China)] V0latyle:
Magisk is a root manager. If the features you want can be added with Magisk modules or require root, then sure it can help, but it sounds to me like what you actually need is a ROM with those features baked in.

Pixel phones can only cast to Chromecast devices, which is why your fire stick wont show up.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] NewDaveMo:
Hello all, I have been trying to figure this out. My note 10+ 5G is unlocked. My model is N976u. For whatever reason, whoever unlocked this phone installed n975u firmware. I am trying to flash it so it works on ATT. I already paid the plan and I have no option for updating unless I buy the phone outright. I searched the forums so I apologize if this has been answered already. Texts and data work fine, I live in the US if that makes a difference
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Welcome to XDA

Unless I'm mistaken if you slam a AT&T sim card for that phone in it, it should come online.

I have an unlocked N975U1 and a AT&T N975U, the card from my original N10+ works in the newer one too.

Call AT&T advanced tech support or go to a corporate store.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nuthingtolose:
Hi everyone in the community. I have been looking for some kind of a preset maker or a macro that will give instructions to set certain options on or off.

It will be easier giving a example:

I want to open a app and it automatically:

*Turns off Wi-Fi

*Turns off Mobile data

*Clears history of chrome browser

*Turns Ringtone on Silent

Is there such a thing?

And if not is it possible to make such a app?

I have been searching for something like this for the past 2 weeks.

If you can point me in the right direction or give any ideas about how this would be possible are highly appreciated.

Thank you in advanced.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sawdoctor:
Macrodroid or tasker should be able to do it. Macrodroid droid is easier to use
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ballzak:
Try Automate (free) with an automation flow something like:

Flow beginning

App in foreground: Package=<pick the app>

Wi-Fi set state

Mobile data set state

Shell command privileged: content delete --uri content://com.android.chrome.browser/history

Ringer mode set or Interruption set depending on Android version

(loop back to #2)

However, #5 clearing browser history probably wont work since apps can't access data of other apps, neither can ADB nowadays.

KB2005_13.1.0.581(EX01). Rooted with Magisk 26300, zygisk enabled.

Hey all, strange problem I've got here.

When an app tries to pull up a file opening dialogue, for some reason, the app crashes, or just fails. So for example, I can't attach files to the gmail app, or open a rom in myboy etc. Far as I can tell this is happening with all apps.

What seems to be the issue is handling https://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Intent.html#ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE() and also just ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT

Here's an example of the exact error taken from logcat.

notifyUnstableAppInfo: Bundle[{unstableTime=1697596562427, reason=crash, userId=0, exceptionMsg=No Activity found to handle Intent { act=android.intent.action.OPEN_DOCUMENT cat=[android.intent.category.OPENABLE] typ=*/* (has extras) }, exceptionClass=android.content.ActivityNotFoundException, app_channel_type=unstable, packageName=com.fastemulator.gba, unstable_restrict_switch=true}]

This seems to suggest there's no app I have which supports this particular activity, but I have like 5 different file managers (including the "default" google one), so one of them _should have_ worked.

I'm not sure if this has anything to do with rooting (done using magisk). I wasn't actually able to find anyone else online with this specific issue. Was hoping someone might be able to shed some light on what might be up here, or help me further investigate.
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] Rootk1t:

[Xiaomi 13 Pro] khusika:
Hi @Ikurina

Welcome to XDA!

It seems like you wipe every partition before flashing the ROM. Just do Format Data instead of Wipe every partition. Re-flash stock ROM using fastboot methods (without locked bootloader) to restore your partition problem. And then you can start to install any custom MIUI ROM only with Format Data before flashing.

Oh! Thanks. It worked

Hello

Please, if anyone can help me

I rooted my phone with twrp and then turned on developer options. then I reset the phone and got the message that FRP is locked.

Then I tried to setup original framework android 8.

After installing the framework , no command page will appear. I try to enter recovery mode page by holding the power button and pressing the volume up button, but recovery mode message does not work.

I tried to flash the phone with combination file, but binary error appears.

The current binary of the phone is 8, and there is no compatible with the binary 8.

I also put the file in this post ( https://xdaforums.com/t/solved-need-a-combination-file-with-binary-8-on-g935f.4356027/ )on the phone, but there was no difference. I even tried HOME_CSC.

i try to install twrp again but FRP blocket.

My phone is s7 edge SM-935FD.

Thanks for the help
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Eggleston11:
Welcome to the forums spoker. That is a pickle that you are in. Based on ur description, I suspect you relocked the bootloader in developer settings after having rooted the phone (and as such unloked the bootloader). I dont recall the exact name of the setting but it was "OEM unlock" or something like that. I am on a ROM on my S7 edge and that option was removed from developer settings so that it wouldnt have that issue. I dont know any other way to save your phone's function other than this:

I hope you made a nandroid backup.

1 - go to sammobile and download an appropriate firmware - usually latest is fine. I assume you were on android 8.

Latest Samsung Galaxy S7 edge firmware

Download the latest Samsung firmware for Galaxy S7 edge with model code SM-G935F. Check out our free download or super fast premium options.

www.sammobile.com

2 - ensure that you have drivers for samsung phone on ur pc (usually if you have rooted then you would have that step already done)

3 - use odin to flash the firmware onto the phone

How to Use Odin to Flash Samsung Galaxy Stock Firmware

If you own a Samsung phone and enjoy rooting or modding your device, flashing official firmware can be very useful. Odin is Samsung's own internal program for loading such updates for testing purposes, and it's quite easy to use for your own custom modification needs.

android.gadgethacks.com

You should now have at least a working phone.

Options for a rooted phone if you still want to root:

You can flash ur nandroid that you have through TWRP to get back what you had before

you can then root it again and never change that setting in developer options again.

Or you can just start from scratch and download and flash a rom +/- kernel of ur liking through TWRP.

I'm currently on superman ROM with notorious kernel and it's still working for me flawlessly literally 6-7 years later.

The disclaimer is that it has been a while since I have given advice on XDA and I am not responsible for ur device.

Good luck, feel free to ask if any clarification or help needed otherwise.
