[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] megabouda:
Hi there ! I have several s10e. I've used one for years and it got the android 12 update (TMB/XAA/TMB). As the battery is dying, I am switching to another s10e. This one is XAA/XAA/ATT and when trying to update it to Android 12, it tells me that The software is already up to date. I tried with a third phone (XAA/XAA/SPR) and similarily it can't update to Android 12 neither. As a matter of fact the last Android security patch level updates are from 2021...

I do not live in the USA. All those phones are not rooted. I am trying to update them via auto update on the phone software update settings menu.

Do you know why those two phones are not updating to 12? How to fix it? Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] PhoneRepairHUB:
Try manual update go to SamFw

Download the firmware

Download Odin

And use YouTube for reference
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] megabouda:
Yes that's the route i'm taking... I tried with Frija but all downloads stop midway.. it's very frustrating. Trying with SamFw as we speak. Thanks for the advice !

[MX Player] xceedPR1:
Is there a way to make it so that in the case of opening an MKV file, all subtitle tracks are enabled by default? I was watching a series, the downloaded episodes were mkv format, there are 2 subtitle tracks (one is for signs & songs, and the other one is for the dialogue), both of which are English. I am using MX Player Pro and in its settings I have set preferred subtitle language to English, but in the case of what I was watching, there are 2 sub tracks which are both English and MX player chooses only one which it opts to enable the signs & songs only, leaving me to have to manually enable the dialogue subtitles for each time I get to the next episode.

I have tried as far as to edit the metadata of the MKVs, setting both dialogue and signs&songs sub tracks as default subtitle as well as setting them both as "forced", using MkvEdit app (this is a free and working app from playstore btw), however, MX player still only chooses one of the 2 sub tracks (even when I have cleared English as default sub in its settings cos it might affect the forced metadata flags of both tracks), is there any way for me to make it so that both subtitle tracks are automatically enabled by default? I get it that MX player can remember which sub tracks were on when you've streamed a vid, but what if its a vid that is being streamed for the first time, I want it to happen that when opening the next episode it automatically enables both tracks.

Hello everyone 😉 I need your help 🤷‍♂️ I've had a China radio for 2 years...lately it's been crashing a lot and is slow... That's why I wrote to the dealer and he sent me a 1.4gb zip file. I unzipped it onto a USB stick and plugged it into the radio. The radio recognizes the stick. But how do I install the files now? I think I have to get the radio to access the USB stick when starting. But how does that work? I have a reset button that I press with a needle... no matter whether long or short... the radio always starts up in normal mode afterwards😞. Can someone explain to me step by step what I have to do?🙏. I'm a newbie when it comes to this 🤷‍♂️ I'm already desperate🤷‍♂️ Many thanks for your help LG Christian

[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] vjrx88:
Hi

I have Mi A3 running Android 11 with last Aug 2022 update. I recently rooted my device back in August 2023 using Magisk due to some technical requirements. After running for some days I unrooted it using Magisk uninstall and it unrooted safely but after that I started experiencing a constant UI crashes and hanging of device.

What is the issue and how to resolve it? I even factory reset my device but still the issue persists. Installing any other ROM will solve the problem or not?

Hi I've tried to find the section where to ask about the 13 ultra but can't seem to see it, feel free to move this there if there's a section for it.

I'm trying to flash the Global ROM to my device. I've got as far as unlocking the bootloader. However, when on the mi flash tool and I try to install drivers the app will seem like it's loading then it will crash and close itself . Before it was giving me the path can't be found for log error but I made the folder and now this . I'm abit confused and unsure how to sort such issues.

I'm on windows 8 I think .

If anyone has any ideas at all I'd appreciate it.

so im on the miui 14.0.17.0 TMACNXM at the moment what am i to do from here to get to global rom? do i need the install twrp above?

Then how is it installed? This is zip, with multiple img files? Fastboot?

Sideload the rom or use OTG

[Xiaomi 13 Pro] RimmoPal:
Any idea why it would be doing this? Just sideload flashed the global ROM.
[Xiaomi 13 Pro] NOSS8:
The problem is that you are using a recovery rom since Miflash does not work on your PC and the recovery roms are used to update or restore the rom, they only contain anything to troubleshoot, unlike the fastboot rom which has all the system imgs.
[Xiaomi 13 Pro] RimmoPal:
So. Can I not get rid of this?
[Xiaomi 13 Pro] NOSS8:
Without Miflash, no and even with miflash it is not 100% certain, the solution is flash in EDL mode but if Miflash does not work on your PC it is excluded.

Install the Xiaomi Eu rom and sell it with it since you have to root for banking apps to work with a global rom.
[Xiaomi 13 Pro] :
That's not right. Flashing fastboot ROM fixes that issue. Had it too
[Xiaomi 13 Pro] NOSS8:
Maybe if you had followed the thread, you would have seen that neither miflash nor fastboot (even with Platform Tools) work on his PC
[Xiaomi 13 Pro] :
Yeah I know. But I was referring to EDL. It's not needed to get rid of this problem.
[Xiaomi 13 Pro] NOSS8:
There is certainly a part of user responsibility and as the EDL mode is done by remote assistance, this part would be eliminated, that is why.
[Xiaomi 13 Pro] :
Yes you're definitely right here. Sometimes it's better to keep the phone like it is. Especially when important things doesn't work on the computer. 😉

[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] zurikpazurik:
So the question is I have a SM-A505F with twrp 3.7.0 with unofficial lineageOS 20 flashed from the xda forum here. Also rooted with the following method:

The question is when my phone is connected to a charger but my electricity goes off the phone does not automatically boot but rather is in the "charging screen" and I have to hold the power button to turn it on. I would want the phone to automatically boot when the electricity comes back on, without the need of holding down the button. As there is no fastboot present, I did not even try the command "fastboot oem off-mode-charge 0". So is there a way? I tried searching through the boot.img that I backed up from the device, but I believe there is nothing useful. Any advice would be appreciated.

[HTC Tornado] markanthonypr:
With phone off, press and hold CAM button and plug in your USB Cable. As long as you see USB like on lower left of screen, as you have posted, you are good to flash. You might be using wrong ROM or wrong procedure. Make sure you follow Karhoe's guide for TORNADO. Under worse situation, flash with ShipRom which you can find on FTP and you'll be back to OEM state. Good Luck!

[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Guides, News, & Discussion] tonsofquestions:
This is great, much appreciated for all future readers (and the next time I wipe).

Out of curiosity, why pick one MicroG installer over another? I recall the last time I used Nanolx which had some nice options/builtins.

Same question about the different Xposed versions, though feel free to point me to another thread if there's a good reference for that one.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Guides, News, & Discussion] Arcline:
I use microg installer revived since it's just plain simple microg install, nice and simple. Other installers change/add other things as well.

Lsposed is the modern emplementation of Xposed and you should go for that unless I believe you're android 8 or 7.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Guides, News, & Discussion] tonsofquestions:
Got it, that makes sense. I liked a number of the additional apps (configurable) from Nanolx, and it auto installed Aurora services (if selected), but you're right that in the end you can just do it manually.

Thanks!
