[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Questions & Answers] iulik17d:
Hello everyone! I have an Rog Phone 3 with an damaged connector for camera. I dont care about camera functionality but the device seem to perform an hardware check at boot and get stuck. I can enter in bootloader mode, the phone is shown as fastboot device, i can flash any stock raw rom (android 10 and 11), i can flash recovery but it wont boot in system or in recovery. if the phone is off ad i connect power from usb c port, it shows the charging circle with the thunder sign in the middle but no percentage number or any animation. It gets stuck.

What can i do besides hardware repair? As an analogy with PC world, i need an BIOS that doesnt perform an complete hardware check, or that can go over an hardware error.

Thank you and pardon my english :))
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Questions & Answers] Andrologic:
Have you removed the entire camera module and cheked that there are no shortciruiting connectors?
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Questions & Answers] iulik17d:
yes, the connector is entirely removed from pcb and pads are clean, no short between them.
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Questions & Answers] Andrologic:
Don't know any ways of bybassing the system check. In that case, I'd probably try putting in a new camera unit. Costs around $35-40 - feels worth it for saving a good device.
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Questions & Answers] iulik17d:
I soldered the camera and the phone wont boot up. Sometimes, after many restarts, the unlocked bootloader message dissapears and it enters directly in fastboot mode. No ROG logo. At this stage I need to reinstall an RAW image. Somehow the system gets corrupted.

One curious thing: I can find the phone in fastboot mode only on windows with some xiaomi drivers, otherwise it appears in device manager as Android Phone. I usualy use Debian linux and i cant find the phone in fastboot mode in terminal like before the problems. It isnt show up neither with lsusb command. The Debian system is unchanged, it worked every time before these problems.

Anybody some ideas?

hi,

even if i delete the sms status reports in the inbox folder the notification in the taskbar still stays.

that seems to be a bug since other users told me that they suffer the same problem.

anyone who knows a possible solution?

[Android Head-Units] HightronicDesign:
Hi all,

I have a problem with my JOYX Head Unit. I have it installed in my 2009 MItsubishi Pajero. When I start the car and drive away, almost every time when I press the Volume up button on the steering wheel it turns the display completely off (incl the side button lighting) and also mutes the volume. Pressing the same volume up button again turns the display back on, the unmutes the volume. After this, I can use the volume up button like it is should work. It is doing this annoying thing only once.

This is the head unit: https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B0C1BLG1XB/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Anyone experienced the same or has an idea how to solve this?

Thanks a lot

I was trying to lock the bootloader after change it to the china rom, the adb seems perfectly done as the tutorial say it, but the tablet then say that the device is not trusted and cannot be lockd again, give a link about google and the stuck pn this screen, if i press start, or turno off and start again it continue in this screen.

Bootloader is locked while custom firmware is loaded on the device (global rom or whatever) do unlock again (or you could say the firmware inside tablet is not 100% verified - i.e. not CN so it won't boot and you can't flash anything there)

[Red Magic 8 pro] Kolyasisan:
Rooted my device quite a bit ago. Everything works pretty nice, besides the selfie camera. The official camera app doesn't display the switch icon, while other apps either crash upon switching, or switch to a different camera on the main camera module. I don't remember what I did wrong...

Really would love to fix it, but I don't know how to approach this issue. Flashing a stock rom would probably fix it, but I don't really want to get rid of all my data or spend lots of time backing it up and then restoring, and I also kinda need root access.

What would be your suggestions? Thanks in advance
[Red Magic 8 pro] borygo77:
Flash stock rom or call ZTE and ask them what to do 😉
[Red Magic 8 pro] Kolyasisan:
Yeah, figured that flashing a stock would be the safest bet. Will be a bit of a pain getting all back together from backups after ensuring that both root and cameras work, and then waiting until something else breaks off, but still.
[Red Magic 8 pro] borygo77:
I'm using Swift backup for this.
[Red Magic 8 pro] Kolyasisan:
Huh... flashing a stock rom didn't help at all actually. The issue persists in the exact same way.

You got the hardware problem then 😉

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] monocle503:
Hello am wondering if this is possible? I would love to run the international firmware version instead of the preprovisioned ATT Carrier image.

I have both phones already.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] jshuler:
The device and target firmware MUST be a US variant (SM-F946U or SM-F946U1) and the phone needs to be carrier-unlocked.

The answer would probably be yes if we are only talking US devices and US firmware (I just converted a T-Mobile SM-F946U to an unbranded SM-F946U1, then to a Verizon SM-F946U), but the international dream is dead :P
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] monocle503:
I always assumed the unlocks were the International versions. Anyways, yes mine is a "US" unlocked, and I would like to do that to the ATT Fold 5. I figured that would have needed no further introduction with the mention of "ATT".

[Nothing Phone 2] Justingaribay7:
Hey @arter97 ,

I have found that once i flash the kernel boot.img provided ( non SU img ) . All boots up fine as long as i flash on both boot a/b partitions. I can even patch boot img with Magisk and boot/ restart normal . Its until I try to go back into TWRP recovery when the device freezes and gets stuck on recovery twrp logo. Even when trying to force restart and boot into system as normal its forcing boot into recovery ( Not letting you get back to normal system or into recovery ) .

Temp Fix : I have to flash stock boot img ( 2.0.3 ) to both slots and reboot to recovery ( which makes it work now then i can reflash patched kernel boot img of yours to get root / into system.

*** Question : am i doing something wrong that is making the recovery freeze? is there anything i can provide to help fix this issue so if there is anyone wanting to try to use this kernel - they wont have much problems as i do with recovery .

When flashing kernel boot img via twrp and or bootloader via PC - terminal i get same results

Thanks
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
Recovery can freeze for a while before it opens, can be considered normal...

How long are you talking? Seconds / minutes?
[Nothing Phone 2] Justingaribay7:
It will freeze for a few solid minutes .. even went into crash dump mode one time .. doesn't ever enter the recovery .
[Nothing Phone 2] PhatWalrus:

[Nothing Phone 2] Immortalis:
My data partition became corrupted on r1b1, device froze while enabling USB tethering and rebooted itself to recovery, so beware
[Nothing Phone 2] ffejy462:
Same boat here. Recovered by formatting and flashing arter rom and magisk patched arter kernel. Boots, go though setup, apps, etc, etc, but as soon opening magisk, it asks for reboot, which then sends device to recovery and indicates corrupted data. I'll try flashing stock kernel patched with magisk later..
[Nothing Phone 2] Immortalis:
That's what I've personally done, modded Arter stock ROM with Magisk patched stock kernel runs great so far :)
[Nothing Phone 2] MacTavishFR:
Thanks to both of you

Seems pretty obvious now
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
Latest kernel, slight underclock with zram off, small cluster on conservative, up threshold on 45 and down on 85.

Tournament on Wordscapes 😂

App list is a lot longer than I can show.

9 hours 10 minutes on 20%

3 days of usage.

I usually run to 10% so I would have put that over 10 hours SOT

Thanks @arter97

If I could make a suggestion it would be to allow 150MHz as the lowest frequency for GPU.
[Nothing Phone 2] pawelmiernik:
could you share how you got up_thershold 45 and down_threshold 85 in conservative governor settings to stay....as far as my experience goes, using fkm and ex kernel manager, up_treshold has to > down_threshold, otherwise the value gets reverted back
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
It's under governor parameters and no it doesn't revert back, just set on boot.

I actually got them the wrong way round

It's down 45

And up 85
[Nothing Phone 2] pawelmiernik:
Okay so yeah like I said the up_threshold has to be greater than down_threshold, in your original post you said you had up_threshold at 45 and down_threshold at 85 which can't be set, maybe edit it to reflect your settings.
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
Meh...I corrected it above... No need, my OCD isn't that bad.

Point being you can change these settings and it does stick... I've written about these settings before many times.
[Nothing Phone 2] MacTavishFR:
This @arter97
[Nothing Phone 2] MacTavishFR:
Dudes can I revert back to stock kernel without formating?

Went on bootloader mode, flashed stock boot.img with fastboot but then the phone wont start.

Had to reflash everything.

Did I do something wrong?

Why is this phone so complicated to custom, damn my xiaomi worked much better
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
The kernel is in the boot image..

So two ways, flash the boot image to the slot your phone is using.

Or ...

Much easier way, using Franco kernel manager before you flash a custom kernel just head to the back up section and back everything up (see screen shot)

You didn't have to wipe anything because you were literally modifying one part of the system which is the boot image.

You could have just flashed Arters kernel again using fastboot flash boot (name of boot image)

Learning curve 👍🏼
[Nothing Phone 2] MacTavishFR:
Thanks dude but I know all of this.

The thing is that I flashed the stock boot.img on the slot I was using, BUT THEN the phone didn't wanted to boot anymore. Stuck on start screen. I shouldn't happen but dude,

I simply get tired of searching for the problem so I simply used the script to flash everything back to stock, anyway I had almost no data since i wiped the day before
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
Could be the image was bad mate... I've got images in my thread should you need them, spike has them in his fastboot ROM thread... It can go wrong from time to time, it is what it is and the NP2 isn't unique to this issue either.

It's a ball ache I know .

Stick with Franco, it's fool proof and always works.
[Nothing Phone 2] MacTavishFR:
Thanks for you help dude.

But don't bother, I decided to go full stock for now, see how things goes.

Like I posted in an another topic I'm done with customizing this phone. Since day one it has been a real pain in the ass, always got issues, bricked it three times.

I never had that many issues with my previous phones, maybe I'm cursed.

And to be honest the stock rom is pretty clean compared to other oems
[Nothing Phone 2] zozo932:
Im on rom stock 2.6 in custom kernel. But that True that never see its so so conplicated fir root, install magisk and more... Im break fir 4 times too
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
I love the stock ROM it's superb..

You know how to use the fastboot ROM so you have a way back..

Personally i use arters kernel on stock, does everything I need it to and with a few tweaks I get 10 hours SOT...so I'm happy.

PA FE is my go to custom ROM though
[Nothing Phone 2] MacTavishFR:
And it will continue to get worse, as Google pushing more 'security feature' to Android
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
This has been talked about over and over again for years and yet here we are with dozens of custom ROMs, several recoveries, a flash tool and a tonne of devs.

I made the guide to root the day I got the phone, I've never had a single issue rooting, flashing with fastboot and custom ROMs sure but it's a learning curve.

If it ever gets locked down totally then people will just go to iOS because why not.

Anyway, don't want to hijack this thread..

Rant over 👍🏼

Hi,

@arter97 i found an issue with your kernel.

After installing my GameSir X2S Type-C Game Controller is not working. No input is working.

Flashed back to stock kernel, and it's working again.

I use your NothingMuch Rom and tested r18 and r19 Kernel.

Can I help hou with logs or something?

@gargashish0901

Installing a kernel works in Fastboot mode. With the command:

fastboot flash boot PathToKernel.img
[Nothing Phone 2] arter97:
Yes, please post the kernel log from stock kernel right after you've inserted the controller. Thanks.

[Nothing Phone 2] arter97:
r1b5 is up with new battery charging current limiting functionality.

It allows you to use limit charging current and battery percentage to prolong battery health.

To use this feature, the "Battery Charge Limit" app can be used:

Battery Charge Limit [ROOT] - Apps on Google Play

Stop charging at desired level to preserve battery health for most devices!

play.google.com

1. Go to the app's settings

2. Enable "Configurable CTRL File Data"

3. Enter "Configure Control Data"

4. Write the following in each order:

/sys/class/power_supply/battery/charge_control_limit
0
22

Details:

Existing methods break thermal-daemon's throttling behavior and may cause damage. A kernel patch implemented in r1b5 preserves thermal-daemon's behavior to work with Qualcomm PMIC's charge current limit functionality.

The number written in the control data is device-specific, and the Nothing Phone 2 has the index 22 set to 0 charging current, which effectively disables charging and work in power-passthrough mode.

If you want to limit the charging current itself, refer to the below table:

+-------+---------+
| Index | Watt |
+-------+---------+
| 0 | Nolimit |
| 1 | 45 |
| 2 | 42.5 |
| 3 | 40 |
| 4 | 37.5 |
| 5 | 35 |
| 6 | 32.5 |
| 7 | 30 |
| 8 | 27.5 |
| 9 | 25 |
| 10 | 22.5 |
| 11 | 20 |
| 12 | 17.5 |
| 13 | 15 |
| 14 | 12.5 |
| 15 | 12 |
| 16 | 10 |
| 17 | 8 |
| 18 | 7.5 |
| 19 | 6 |
| 20 | 5 |
| 21 | 2.5 |
| 22 | 0 |
+-------+---------+

I personally use 20 and 22 for daily driving, limiting the charging current to 5W and only allowing the battery to go up-to 80%.

Do note that Nothing Phone 2's on-device charge current monitoring is quite inaccurate. Do not rely on an app's readings to determine how much wattage is flowing to the device or the battery.

Can this be flashed using Franco kernel manager?
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
It is possible to flash using Franco, but I'd advise to patch it first if you're after root too.

Simply patched and booted it thereafter and all good..

Have noticed crappy battery on 2.5.1 (stock) same routine / habits as I used on 2.0.4 so fingers crossed that this kernel can cure all that...have heard good things from the PA Devs about your kernel @arter97

I should have installed this sooner 👍🏼

[Nothing Phone 2] whatsek:
Can confirm, my steps: (I am on rooted stock 2.5.1)

- Download the kernel without SuperSu

- Patch the IMG with your preferred Magisk (i use Alpha)

- Flash with FKM, select manual flash, and hit reboot.

I've a NP2 updated to 2.5.1A firmware. Just installed your r8 awesome kernel and changed to the new battery current limiting function. I'm probably doing something wrong, but the scenario_fcc file keeps reverting back to default value of 9000 even if i manually set it to 0 or -1. Is it correct?
[Nothing Phone 2] bsimpson1:
If we set it to 22, is this basically the same as running the device on AC power instead of the battery? In other words, could I theoretically have the phone plugged in 24/7 without affecting health of the battery?
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
Nah I don't think so, you're basically trickle charging which does add against the lithium's cycle.

For me charging at the rated speed is probably the best way to keep the battery in optimal shape, I don't charge overnight as I only lose 1-2% overnight anyway and my charger is 30w which charges it quick anyway.
