[Fire TV General] Skel40:
Should I upgrade?

If you own a Max (kara) there's no reason to. You can still add external storage via USB 2.0 otg for more storage space as internal or external, however you prefer. The performance is still the same if not a bit faster, not by a lot, due to Android 9.0 being it's operating system on Android as Fire OS 7. Only upgrade if you need to. Your specs are immediately the same as the Gen 2 (karat) and the extra 100 mhz is not worth the price.

What to expect

This device runs smooth. There little to no lag while streaming and launching applications. I've heard people having issues with Wi-Fi 6E which I don't own. I only have a standard 5 GHZ router. No concern for me, I do notice the Wi-Fi bar does drop and this is on Fire OS 8.1.0.1, give this device time. It just released. All the bugs you experience are a fresh version of Fire OS 8 Android 11. There's never been a Fire TV OS of this.

In general, I love the new device. The added 11 GB of space is a step up to all the other Fire TV Stick devices. It's a great upgrade over any other older Fire TV Stick device you have and it's on par with the Cube 3 in a way with it's added memory and same ram as the (kara) 2 GB. It's kind of annoying to see the ambience mode on the long press of the home button without the apps button being there. Still pretty cool that the feature has been added for those type of setups and the it's the only device that even has an ambience mode. The no icon bug will be fixed when a new update comes.

If anyone has any questions about what else this device has to offer, please let me know and I'll respond if available. Thanks for the understanding and happy streaming!
[Fire TV General] :
Pretty positive amazon reviews on the karat so far. Watch--the 2nd gen will become rootable/unlockable b4 the 1st gen, hahah.:LOL:...........:cry:
[Fire TV General] Skel40:
We'll see. The specs are the same and anything can happen with this and the newer 4K 2nd Gen as well. 😅
[Fire TV General] Skel40:
I also want to mention file management. Its broken unfortunately. I've tried different versions of Total Commander and still shows that I need to give Total Commander full access to all files and folders which is a very strange bug. The "Files" app (using Total Commander) listed as 11 meaning Android OS 11 has no good TV support with the Alexa Voice remote so scrolling to find a "directory" doesn't allow me to select it and use the directory. The mouse has no cursor to show any selections. It clicks on the contents of the directory which is challenging to deal with. I also tried ZArchiver and that strangely shows all the folders of the /storage/emulated/0 directory and doesn't show the files anywhere from the Downloader folder and Download folders. There's also issues with deleting too.
[Fire TV General] Skel40:
Update: 8.1.0.1/1854 fixes permissions with Kodi, Total Commander, file management applications.

"Ambient Experience" mode is still the selection while long pressing the home button on the remote so no "apps" for the time being.
[Fire TV General] mite_jan:
you can read all permissions with app ops , at least i am able to when i share screen to pc and click on things
[Fire TV General] Skel40:
Rebooting into fastboot via adb reboot fastboot goes straight to the screen here. "Reboot system now", "Enter recovery", "Reboot to bootloader", and "Power off. Using the USB otg with a keyboard doesn't select the options listed, no factory reset option is present. fastboot flashing won't work on locked hw, the Fire TV remote doesn't respond to the given cycles highlight and this applies to the CEC TV features.

The firestick 4k max 16 will do audio passthru of the following formats" tested with kodi alpha build 21, it passes thru dolby digital, dolby digital plus, DTS, dolby true HD, DTDHDMA... itswill do LPCM 8 channel but not as passthru...overall, it is on a similiar playing field in these regards as the nvidia shield but at a fraction of the cost... Recent downsides are the amazon updates that have ruined the prime video apk experience, injecting ads into the streams and disabling atmos sound ...those who blocked updates prior to jan 29th 2024 will have avoided this misfortune..if you didnt, no way I can see to revert back without root ...

Updated the 8.1.0.1/1854 diff. Unfortunately this new update still doesn't fix the "apps" icon when long pressing the home button and still shows ambient mode as the selection.
[Fire TV General] bibikalka:
Are there any full updates? I want to pull the home app, and update it via sideload on top of my 8.1.0.0

I am not sure how to pull that from the diff file ...
[Fire TV General] Skel40:
I was only able to get the differential updates, no full updates
[Fire TV General] Skel40:
@bibikalka Try adb logcat as the update downloads and adb shell, pm clear com.amazon.device.software.ota to clear. Getting full .bin updates on stock is rare. The 1st Gen Max (kara) had a full 7.2.7.3 when I did a logcat. Nothing for 2nd Gen yet. I'll give it a try for 8.1.0.3 if lucky
[Fire TV General] bibikalka:
Mine auto-updated to 8.1.0.3 today despite my best efforts to block it. Looks like Amazon figured out how to bypass the blocks we discuss here.

I guess catching a different home version now is not that relevant anymore for me :(
[Fire TV General] Skel40:
That's not good.....they've blocked it...8.1.0.3 is an early update, get an exchange with 8.1.0.1 and lower if possible....a different home version isn't possible because of blocked adb. I'm sorry to hear the bad news 🙁
[Fire TV General] Skel40:
There's no luck with reversing this blocked feature. I updated the OP with 8.1.0.3 diff. Still no full .bin
[Fire TV General] wolf45801:

[LineageOS Questions & Answers] droidkeyboardfan12:
Hello,

I bought an a73 5g because I saw it had a LOS build available. Sadly, this build has not been maintained for months now and is no longer compatible with the current binary update.

I've messed around with custom roms since the g1 but i've never built lineageos.

Is there some information on how i could use this existing base and update LOS to be compatible. I know that the hardware is shared by other samsung phones which are currently supported. I asked one of the devs and he said it was easy to cherry pick from his build in order to update LOS for the current binary version.

I would really appreciate any help on this. I've had this phone for months now and haven't been able to switch over due to the lack of a working rom.
[OnePlus 11] Ćwirek:
Hello everyone.

As in the thread title, I am looking for a solution for battery drain of our phone that occurs on custom ROMs and therefore I would like to start a discussion on this subject.

Recently I started recording working time on a single charge on Lineage OS and so far I have managed to get 24 hours of the phone working on a single charge (mixed usage: YouTube Revanced, GBWhatsApp, Chrome, calls, Galaxy Watch 4 connected via Bluetooth, a little bit of PUBG Mobile) but I just want more, it would be great to achieve a similar operating time on single charge to that of the stock ROM (about 36 hours). Nameless ROM and crDroid will be checked in the future.

This module: https://github.com/Magisk-Modules-Alt-Repo/smallbattery (downloaded and installed via Fox's Magisk Module Manager) doesn't seem to work, but maybe it need to adjust itself or something to function properly, I don't know. I will let you all know later if something will change.

I've read somewhere that this Module might work: https://github.com/gloeyisk/universal-gms-doze/releases but I've almost given up hope on that without checking because I feel like I'm ruining the battery by flashing random things.

There is also Greenify, praised by many, which I also did not checked yet.

How do you deal with short battery life? Do you use any Magisk modules or (root) apps that you can recommend because you have tested them on this phone? Anything?
[OnePlus 11] kpirnie:
I use gms doze 1.9, and my own module. im pushing 3 days on one charge... granted thats only 4-6hr sot... but still
[OnePlus 11] Ćwirek:
Have you noticed that WhatsApp/GBWhatsApp or other applications stopped working after flashing GMS Doze? Is there any way to remedy this?
[OnePlus 11] kpirnie:
Sorry, I dont use those.
[OnePlus 11] Ćwirek:
I see. So I've flashed your module and GMS Doze and I will let you know in your thread about results. Maybe issue with GBWhatsApp was not related
[OnePlus 11] alicheusz:
I play on lots of customs roms on different phones and all gimic magisk modules, or supper optimizing apps didn't fix poor battery life. There simply must be well made ROM and that's it. There can't be any mismatched libraries, useless apps, divers that wasn't properly implemented with ROM. Only thing that made little difference for me was thinkering with CPU governor. But every time it worked properly was when ROM worked form the start.

Hi,

I've got TomTom Navigator 6 in my HTC Wizard (SPV M3000), and it can't connect via bluetooth with Navibe GB732. My settings:

GPS in GoogleMaps works perfectly, but in TomTom in doesn't work. (Configuration: Change preferences -> Show GPS status -> Configure -> Other Bluetooth GPS receiver -> COM7 (any port doesn't work))

Anyone knows how to make it working correctly?

Thanks in advance
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] Nirak:
I think you shouldn't use the external GPS application; better put it back in default state = programs tab: none, hardware tab: none, (baudrate doesn't matter then); acces tab: uncheck the 'manage GPS automatically' box.

From the other settings screens above i can see your BT GPS is already connected to com6.

Start up TomTom and go to 'Show GPS status' in Preferences, choose Configure, choose Other BT GPS receiver, choose Continue, choose com6.

Things should be OK now. if not, delete the existing connection between your Wizard and BT GPS and make a new one; either using com6 or com7

Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] blackhawk:
I recommend you do not use SmartSwitch for any critical data. I clean hand reload is best on stock Samsung's. SmartSwitch can fail miserably.

Copy/paste then verify for size and readability. Use at least 2 hdds that are isolated physically and electronically from each other and the PC.

Never encrypt data drives.

Never clone data drives; copy/paste only especially if they contain media files ie .wav etc.
