Wrong forum, device is not Android Automotive, looks like you missed the sticky.

Requested a moderator move your MTCD type unit post to MTCD forum.

Note there's not much improvement for px3 on MTCD

Hello, I am using Xiaomi 13 Pro running stock CN rom, and it is waiting for 7 days to unlock bootloader so I can flash global rom.

It's worth mentioning that I have updated my device to Android 14 while I have not found any version 14 of global rom

Can I flash the global rom with Android 13 for my phone while mine is running Android 14?

Tks you.!

p/s: Can you suggest me which rom you feel is the most efficient and convenient for me if I don't use CN rom?

[Xiaomi 13 Pro] masterssls1:
as far as i understand it is very risky to flash a new virsion with an old virsion . you might brick your phone .

however there is a solution for that but might not be what you are looking for .

after you unlock your bootloader, you can flash the android 13 EU rom , but please shied some light on the reasons why you wanna flash the global instead of the china ROM so i can let you know if there is a benefit for you to flash the EU ROM.
[Xiaomi 13 Pro] NOSS8:
As you will not be able to lock the bootloader with a Global stock ROM, everything regarding payments will not work.

You will need to root and use Magisk modules or use a Xiaomi EU rom.

In any case, your data will be deleted.
[Xiaomi 13 Pro] costixda:
Unlock bootloader (7 day)

Install TWRP

Format data

Download V14.0.5.0.UMBEUXM(EEA) Stable Beta or V14.0.5.0.UMBMIXM (Global) Stable Beta
[Xiaomi 13 Pro] NOSS8:
The version change is done with a Fastboot ROM..
[Xiaomi 13 Pro] victoria0206:
I'm from Vietnam, and CN stock rom doesn't support Vietnamese, and it doesn't have Google Service, it also miss noti.. I want flash rom TW, i think it's the best at this time
[Xiaomi 13 Pro] victoria0206:
Oh, tks you, how about TW rom?
[Xiaomi 13 Pro] NOSS8:
You can only lock the bootloader with a Chinese Rom.
[Xiaomi 13 Pro] victoria0206:
i think i don't need to lock, many payments app in my country is work fine with unlock. but It's been a while since I used a xiaomi product from China, so I don't remember the flashing rules clearly. All I can remember is that if I want to flash another rom, I must first unlock the bld.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] SDAndroid1:
Hello,

I'm having a hard time getting a ROM to load on my tablet. I've unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP, and flashed the ROM. When the tablet restarts, it dumps a kernel error and restarts. See attached.

Where did I go wrong? View attachment 6025918

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] lewmur:
What ROM are you trying to flash? Did you read the posts about replacing TWRP with stock recovery if you are flashing a large ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] windows4droid:
Send pic of download mode
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] SDAndroid1:
This isn't me.

OP model is SM-X200.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] lewmur:
You still didn't say what ROM you flashed or if you replaced TWRP with stock recovery before booting to system. Can't tell what you did wrong till we know what you did.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] SDAndroid1:
I tried this build of LineageOS because others have had success with it:

lineage-19.1-20220814-UNOFFICIAL-arm64_bgS.img.xz From this thread

I've also tried the latest build from Andy Yan as well as the build of SuperiorOS that you suggested (with gapps #2) in this thread.

I've redone the process several times and I believe I did try to replace with stock recovery once or twice. Maybe I didn't do that correctly. I extracted the recovery.img from a stock build on sammobile.com. When the ROM didn't install properly, I used the full image to reflash stock and the reboot the tablet with Odin, BL AP and CSC. Rebooted into stock fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] lewmur:
Try the bgN instead of the bgS. And why not the latest LOS 20 instead of 19.1? Of course, I'm assuming you extracted the .img from .img.xz and used fastboot to flash it. The 0814 version is quite old and may not still work with the latest Android 13 stock ROM. And you don't need to reflash stock recovery after flashing LOS 20. Only need that for the larger ROMs.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] SDAndroid1:
I probably tried the latest LOS 20, but when that failed I went back to one that others had tried with success.

Yes, I extracted it, renamed it system.img and used "fastboot flash system system.img"

Steps I used:

Flash TWRP, boot to recovery, wipe data, factory reset, reboot to fastboot, fastboot -w, fastboot flash system system.img, reboot.

Ill try it again with the latest LOS 20 and flash stock recovery before trying to reboot into the new ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] SDAndroid1:
So don't flash stock recovery? Let me try the latest w/o flashing stock then.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] lewmur:
FORMAT data and the Factory Reset wipe. fastboot -w isn't needed if you do the first two.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] SDAndroid1:
That's what I did. Sorry if I typed the wrong thing.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] lewmur:
I know this ROM works. lineage-20.0-20231017-UNOFFICIAL-arm64_bgN.img

edit: Sorry but I'm out for the rest of tonight. Can continue tomorrow.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] SDAndroid1:
Just downloaded that one.

Is this a problem in TWRP?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] SDAndroid1:
Thank you for the help so far.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] SDAndroid1:
I rebooted back into TWRP and formatted data and factory reset again. No error message.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] SDAndroid1:
Still getting the same error message. View attachment 6026553

View attachment 6026554

the boot sequence is below in two parts. View attachment 6026555View attachment 6026556

The error message is something about DMV corrupt. Is that DM verity?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] SDAndroid1:
It's working!

I flashed back to stock and started over. I also updated to the latest platform-tools. I think that was the problem, old version of fastboot.

In any event, thank you for the help.
[Google Pixel 7] hacked help:
So myself and my wife have the pixel 7 and 7a for her. We are needing some help with some questions like why would an app by the name of device health services when deleted cause a notification for the deletion of (vcast media manager) especially confusing is she didn't even have a vcast media manager?

Or what is Android x and why would it show up on our devices. Or why my 7 shows up in my Google account as Google pixel 7 but also there is a pixel 7 in the activity that is always looked at as a new device and will log in almost soon as I log in
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Wuast94:
I have a MagSafe case and have noticed very poor wireless charging performance. After digging a bit into this topic, I noticed that the coil seems to not be aligned with the G logo on the back. I think it's been on every Pixel phone so far.

So long story short, I took screenshots and tried to overlay the G logo on a teardown picture, sadly I couldn't find one that exposed the coil, so It's hard to spot it exactly, but even if I miss-aligned the pictures a few pixels, which I did, It's clear to see that they are not matching.

View attachment 6025921

Please take this information with care, my overlay isn't accurate.

Also, I removed the magnets from my case and put a ring on the case that is positioned more like what I see in my picture, and my charging performance went up a few watts and seemed to be more reliable. The charging was often interrupted and around 5 watts, now it doesn't get interrupted and charging goes up to 8 watts. So that confirms my findings, I think.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] woundman:
Thank you! I've been having issues. Once my new case arrives, I'll align my OhSnap puck like your picture. Thank you.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Wuast94:
It would be better to have the exact place of the coil to position rings correctly, dont forget that my picture is just a quick overlay of two aligned pictures and not that accurate
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Wuast94:
ok lets get "serious"

Here is the dbrand teardown back (hoping its accurate) and aligned very carufully with a picture of the back from the P8P:

View attachment 6025944

We can clearly see that the logo isnt centered with the coil.

but hey, when we have the dimension of the phone and the dbrand teardown picture, lets take some measurements 😂

View attachment 6025945

The measurements of intrests are the two right ones:

1. Bottom to middle coil: 72.964mm

2. Bottom camera bumb to middle coil: 51.806mm

If we assume the Dbrand one is accurate this measurements should be close to "perfect". Tried to get the exact dimensions from google support but they cant escelate this internally (thats more than sad for a company, shame on you google). they just forewarded me to a repair center, hopes are low that they can offer this but i will comment if they cover me.

Sadly it seems that all the case manufactures dont get this too because they all center the ring to the logo. will see when my RHINOSHIELD case arrives and if they got it wrong or right.

Again shame on google that they dont provide this information, at a minimum case manufactures should get this information in advance from google, so they dont produce waste.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Mrowkarz123:
Now the question is... Does the Dbrand cases have properly aligned magnets? I've ordered the Dbrang Ghost clear case.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Wuast94:
did a quick match and it looks close to perfekt 😊 so no worrys there i would say, and well, i know what case to buy now 😂
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Morgrain:
Seems we need teardowns of cases in the future to confirm proper placement , as "it kinda works" doesn't mean its actually properly aligned and using full speed (as OP reported above).
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Wuast94:
if i get top down pictures like mines a i can check a case for proper placerment. Hope this topic gets a push in tech blogs or so because many new owners are complaining about bad performance using magsafe. reaching out with this topic to google support is ending in factory reset and replacement afterwards which is unneccecerry if im right with my findings. Also all the case buyers are the ones with troble. it just overall a bad situation for everyone.

so im happy to confirm (or not) if a case have the right placement or not
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] rosso79:
I bought an off brand magsafe case from Amazon, (google logo is in the centre of the magnet) when I used it with my mag safe wireless charger in my car the phone got really really hot.

Apparently metal between the coils causes heat build up.

So I would advise everyone not to wireless charge if your magnet is in the wrong position.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Tomadock:
Is there any way to get this to actual scale to use as a template? Thanks!
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] cmh714:
2 pictures of cases, one with the correct placement, and one not so much.....if the G is centered, then that is not going to work well, if at all....

View attachment 6026108
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] mmafighter077:
I placed my own magsafe adapter on the Google case and it works perfectly fine on the charger. I haven't noticed slower charging speeds. But it would also bug me if it wasn't centered, so even if it was slower charging, I'd choose the centered look over faster wireless charging..

View attachment 6026183
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Wuast94:
then you have luck, on my chargers i get slow charging speeds that intercepts from time to time. in my car its not loading at all.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Siksyko:
@ cmh714: what brand is the second case with the correct allignment?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] cmh714:
It was this one, but now I dont see the clear case with the ring as an option....GL!

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CJTX6Z75?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1

My other comment on this case is if you have something like Whitestone glass on the phone, then if the phone is face down, the screen has virtually no protection as this thing has a very tiny lip around the edge.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Tomadock:
I just put this on my case and can confirm with the EZ-Fit Kit you can place the MagSafe plate with the 8 at the top and 4 at the bottom.

Amazon.com
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Rounin:
I got the QuadLock Pixel 8 Pro MAG case and two of their Wireless Chargers (the 'Wireless Chanrging Pand' and 'MAG Wireless Charging Head') and the pad errors out with the "Foreign object detection" and the head over heats and the phone will cycle through charging and not charging.

I took the magnetic ring out and moved the phone 10mm down on both chargers and it charged normally.

So there definitely is an issue with the early release cases due to the mis-alignment of the 'G' logo and coil.

I have asked the case manufacturer to look into it. So hopefully they will release a corrected version as will others.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] ol1ver:
I've taken my cheap wireless charger, and coupled it with one of those USB-C energy meters. Using that, I can see the current draw, and the location obviously affects the current draw. I moved it around a bit and managed to find the 'near optimal' location, which is as pointed out here, not in the center of the G logo. Obviously, this isn't Perfect, but i'd reccon, close enough to prove things are off.

The magnet of my case https://www.amazon.nl/dp/B0CJXFJLFY?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1 is also not properly aligned, which results in suboptimal charging (which I wouldn't even mind so much), but also additional/excessive? heat?

Feel free to remix this image and overlay it with the earlier pictures to obtain location information :p

P.S. it's a 15W charger, and I saw a difference of 1.1 Amps vs 1.6 Amps in terms of magnet, or optimal location. Without the magnet, around the G, it was even doing 0.6Amps only, no idea what the magnet would cause to trigger this, but poor alignment is of course poor.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Taebom:
I'm hoping the dbrand case solves this issue when it arrives.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Wuast94:
i didnt align your picture but it matches visually with my findings and i can confirm the charging behaviour you observed.

Thanks for testing 😊

Keep in mind that if you use a fake number, you will lose access to that account if Telegram ever asks you for confirmation (e.g if you switch devices).

This commonly happens on online numbers which others will try to use.

hey all, i usually don't participate in forums, since answers are most of the time one google search away. This time though, i am truly baffled as to what i should do with this usb-c audio issue.

giving some details:

- Phone is rooted and running a stock custom rom

- i've used audio modules with magisk in the past (aml, ainur, viper, jdsp)

issue description:

1. USB audio headset is recognized, but won't get any audio

2. USB audio works if playing an alarm sound from the soundpicker app, in this case it outputs sound from both the phone speakers and the earpiece.

3. issue persists even after clean install

i really am at my wits end with this one. any ideas? leaving some logs as well
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] D1stRU3T0R:

thank for this info, it's good news if the new update will fix this.

I don't really understand what a new device tree is, does this https://builds.crdroid.net/camellia/9.x/20231122/ is a new device tree ? I'd like to test this CRdroid but only if I can hope that usb-c audio is working...

Guys. I bought a US version F731U. The original Samsung keyboard app is not the same as it in Taiwan/China version(F7310).

The F7310 Samsung keyboard's Chinese Input Method contains many useful functions, while F731U/F731U1 Samsung keyboard's Chinese Input Method just offering some lightweight functions. I use Chinese as my primary language and typing a lot. Without those useful typing functions, typing in Chinese could be very slow. I've confirmed Taiwan/China version's firmware could not be flashed on US version phones.

Does anyone know how to extract the Samsung keyboard app in Taiwan/China version's firmware and flash it on US version? Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] jayjang:
I am using US version samsung phone. The original samsung keykboard app for US version phones doesn't have much Chinese Input Mehod functions. It just offering basic Chinese input functions.

If you are using a China/Taiwan/HK version phone with samsung stock firmware, could you help to extract to original samsung keyboard apk file and share it to me?

The path of the samsung keyboard app is: /system/app/HoneyBoard. There may be several files. I need them all. Thank you very much.

There are no risks involved in that. all you're doing is just making a copy of the app to your local machine. clean and simple

[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] yulexun:
The apk file is in the previous post, however there is one problem. The Chinese version of the app has a lower version number than the us version. As a result, you may not be able to downgrade the app. You may have to find a way of uninstalling the samsung keyboard first before you install the new one.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] jayjang:
Got that. I'll try to figure out if there's any way to install a lower version on my phone. Thank you very very very much.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] runs:
use adb force install or use these two app shizuku +installx to install lower version
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] jayjang:
It seems neither of them works.

adb force isntallation is forbidden by samsung, error message shows that adb force install -r command could not installer lower version than existing version. Even install higher version than system, it still comes to an error, no writeable permission.

Then, I tried shizuku+installerX. shizuku works fine, but installerX failed by showing downgrade failed. I tried uninstalling the system pre-installed apk and re-install via installerX and just got the same error. I guess that eventhough the pre-installed app is uninstall via adb command, there's still some config or log file has the info of original app. If any installer trying to install any app other than the original one, it will fail installation.

Any way. Thanks for new info for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5] runs:
see https://xdaforums.com/t/exploit-shi...rite-your-own-system-app-with-an-api.4561879/

SMTshell downgrade failed, too. For now, all of my actions trying to downgrade the system pre-installed app are failed. I'm gona give up it...it is too hard to accomplish...
