[General Questions and Answers] Renate:
Years ago I had about 150 CDs that I had ripped.

I wrote a utility so that I could copy a few albums at a time to my (limited memory) phone.

Your scenario is a few orders of magnitude bigger than mine was and correspondingly more complex.

There are desktop music organizers that use MTP to sync devices.

You could rely on ID3v1&2 and having the MediaScanner scan the files you dump on your device.

You could export databases from the desktop to the device to obviate the scanning.

I sync my ebooks to my devices and let a custom app scan for metadata.

I sync my guitar transcriptions and copy a database to my device.

Two approaches.

I just think that using a standard file explorer to handle a problem of this magnitude is a bit cumbersome.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] DarkKronicle:
I've been running rooted the past 6 months, but when updating to A14 the normal OTA update method didn't work, and I ended up losing root. (The update was applied by the android system, and not another tool). So right now I'm running stock A14 with unlocked bootloader. I have successfully live booted a rooted A14 boot image using PixelFlasher. I'm just a bit hesitant to flash the image. Just checking that I haven't missed any steps it's safe to flash the image without needing a factory reset.

I've read that verity needs to be disabled, but I did that when first rooting. Do I need to do that again when flashing?

Thanks!
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Lughnasadh:
You should be fine just direct installing in Magisk. In the early days, verity needed to be disabled to flash custom kernels. Later on it wasn't needed. Not sure what the status is of A14 custom kernels for this device. Other than that, verity being disabled isn't required.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] DarkKronicle:
Ok, so would you recommend live booting to root, then using Magisk to install, or flashing the already patched Magisk image?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] simplepinoi177:
As I understand it, it doesn't look like there's much difference between the two methods (but then again, I've never used or knew about Magisk Direct Install from temp booting a rooted boot.img).....

One you do manually while the other Magisk simply does what you would do manually but from within the app....
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Lughnasadh:
You said you already successfully live booted an A14 rooted boot image via Pixel Flasher, so if that's the case all you need to do is direct install in the Magisk app.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] DarkKronicle:
It seemed to work! Thank you for your help!

[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] Galoso:
So,

I'm facing an issue with this Evert device:

Bootloader says "flashing locked"

If I run the command "flashing unlock" on fastboot, it says to tootle oem unlock, but this is grayed out and I cannot turn it on or off, it's like unable to run for me.

Basically, what I've trying to do:

Fastboot flashing unlock, but I got OEM check advise;

I also did try a blankflash solution, but Lolinet has an unmatched version (OPW27.188)

lolinet mirrors - firmware, software, iso etc.

lolinet mirrors - powered by h5ai

mirrors-obs-2.lolinet.com

I've tried both, even for Pie;

I cannot upgrade to pie, even from official lenovo app;

Ran "Motorola Unbrick Tool"

I have not wifi, I can only have tether connection or ethernet (by using a usb c)

If I run boot commands from fastboot, I'll be stuck at untrusted and I cannot proceed;

I cannot flash anything;

I also had no joy at sideload from adb, even trying to update a official zip (ota, I belive) that I found.

I have no idea what I can to survive this mobile.

Hey all, what fun or useful applications have you found for the Pixel Thermometer?

I was definitely in the useless-feature camp but I found it really useful and accurate in figuring out where cool air was leaking into our house and insulation issues with our crawl space by testing the floor temperature in different places, around the vents, around the windows and siding doors, different walls interior/exterior facing, etc. I was going to buy an IR gun on Amazon but the phone worked great. Actually glad I have it now.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Santi3598:
Classic case if a "gimmick" being useful to someone. That's why you never take for granted these special unique features. That's like the perfect case scenario.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] wilpang:
That's an interesting use I may look into that.

I use it regularly to measure aquarium water & how cold my beer is at different places
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] srt54558:
The feature helped me taking out a charger that was at 70°C. Could explode
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] A.Priori:
I actually used it to test HVAC system (see if vent matched intake for AC).
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] TambourineMan:
I thought I had found a use (to check the temp of the contents of a perishable item) usually delivered by FedEx 1day, but the VA chose to use USPS ??? !!! However it gave me an outlier result: it and the ice pack were cool to the touch, but the reading was 80 degrees.

I think the problem is that I have a screen protector on my camera lenses and it extends to cover the temperature sensor, so it may be completely useless
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Face_Plant:
This has also been my experience with a protector on the camera lens. I tried to check the temperature of a freshly brewed cup of coffee and it was 76.8°, so I checked a glass of ice water in case the sensor wasn't close enough to the coffee to get an accurate reading, and it was also 76.8°.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] TambourineMan:
I'd rather protect my cameras than have a working thermometer. At some point someone may make a protector that does not cover it.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] srt54558:
Your camera quality also gets a little bit worse and gets flare.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] TambourineMan:
Good point. I didn't get it because of it's picture taking or editing capabilities (but rather to escape Samsung) and haven't even tried zoom or magic eraser, etal. I've only taken about two pictures so far so I do not know if my protector will be an issue for me or not.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Mrowkarz123:
My previous phone was Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 pro and I had it for over 3 years without lens protector and haven't got a single scratch on any lens. I work as welder and I often have some metal shavings in my pockets, so that tells me that there is no point in using lens protector (tho the metal shavings kinda ruined the speaker so I'm now putting my P8Pro in plastic bag when I'm at work).
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] TambourineMan:
Yeah. I have not had screen protectors on prior cellphones and have not noticed scratches if there were any. However on my Nikons I always have filters on the lenses, but my telescopes only temporarily for special needs. For equipment or cases that have protectors on the other ports such as the USB, they are a huge PITA although I sometimes got warning on my Note 9 that there was moisture in the port. I am surprised that metal shavings ruined your speakers.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Face_Plant:
I used a camera protector on my Pixel 6 Pro and the pictures looked more than good enough to me. That isn't to say that they would've been better without it, but I never noticed an obvious reduction in quality or flare. My friend does photography for a living, so if I need professional photos I'll call them. The Pixel 8 camera with protector is good enough for sending Snapchats to my buddies.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Mrowkarz123:
Oh, I can't tell the same about the screen tho, it is full of scratches (on the RN10P). I don't have screen protector yet but I do consider buying one for my P8Pro (tho I prefer the foil over tempered glass). But yeah, not a single scratch on camera lens.

I do not use plain UV filters on my camera lenses too. With astro gear it's kind of a different story because we use filters to filter certain wavelenghts of light, not for scratch protection.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Spookymyo:
They already make one. I use it and the thermometer works fine and is accurate when compared to my laser thermometer.

Good night guys, i need a help to flash and mantain the rom and the recovery flashed on my Galaxy S20+ G985F/DS (BTS Edition) currently running One Ui 5.1 Android 13 Binary 18 (Stock) but with several software issues on touch screen that appeared after a system update for October Security Patch.

The problem is.... Every time i flash a TWRP or a Pitch Black Recovery this custom binary will boot for one time only and if i reboot my recovery returns to the stock one from AOSP and every custom rom i flash on this device results in a freezing on Samsung Screen (tried every single one, no one even try to appear the Custom OS boot logo). Actually my device only haves roms based on Android 12, i didn´t know if i will need to do a forced rollback to One Ui 4 Android 12 to fix this issue, my bootloader is already unlocked.

[Google Pixel 8 Pro] 4343:
Hi, I recently received my P8P and I noticed that the phone is trying to charge my wired headphones over my USB-C to 3.5 converter. I'm trying to disable this charging as it makes my phone very warm and almost uncomfortable to hold. I've searched Google but nothing comes up, the settings say it is charging my headphones but I see no way of disabling it. Thanks, any help is appreciated!
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] cd993:
When connected, can you see the following option and then try disable charging that way?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] 4343:
While connected my settings say that the USB is controlled by the connected device and I can't switch to being controlled by my phone. I have no buttons that I can use on my headphones.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] cd993:
Ah I see!

Hmm in this case I'm all out of ideas I'm afraid....
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] blackhawk:
See if the 3rd party device has settings to control this. Try disabling background battery usage although this might kill the sound with the display off.

See if a firmware upgrade is available for the device.

You missing the 3.5mm jack yet? I am. It's a nice option to have that caused no harm.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] 4343:
No worries! Thanks for your help.

Yeah I have no settings or anything I can do with my headphones. I think I'll just have to live with this quirk. Thanks!
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] blackhawk:
You're welcome.

So the headphones have a battery? Are the bt as well? Only the converter DAC normally needs power and it's not much.

In any case it shouldn't be draining enough current to warm up the phone. That's ragging the battery.

You could try a pair of Koss porta pros, they've been around for decades. Open air though, pretty good sound.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] 4343:
They are Corsair HS60's, so they aren't Bluetooth powered nor have a battery. I used the same headphones and converter on my old phone and nothing happened.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] blackhawk:
Is it the DAC converter that is incompatible or failed? Seems more likely.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] 4343:
I doubt it's the converter but I think I can live with it. I don't believe it is draining my battery in any significant way. Thanks for your assistance!
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] blackhawk:
If the display is off and it's playing music from internal/external storage it should be running near room temp unless charging.

Use some battery monitor apps to track down the drain. Lol, probably Google backup Transport; on my N10+ I disable all cloud backup because of this behavior. Typically it wants to run when the display is off like at night.

Introduction:

Team Win Recovery Project or TWRP for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. We started from the ground up by taking AOSP recovery and loading it with the standard recovery options, then added a lot of our own features. It's a fully touch driven user interface , no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.
