Can you give me that rom please?

I've installed android 11 successfully but not android 12
[General Topics] juancrod68:
Hello everybody and this time I need some help because I can't install Whatsapp from Playstore or any other source (even downloading the apk file from the official site). I was using a WhatsApp MOD without any problem (MBios Mod) until this week when my account was banned from Whatsapp because I violated spam rules. I know it has happened to a lot of people who use MODs and I uninstalled the app and tried to install the official apk from Playstore but it didn't installed. So I reinstall FMWHATSAPP and works fine but I keep banned, uninstalled it and the problem began again, I can't install the official app and I have tried a lot of times. I don't know what the problem could be and therefore I need any help.

I own a OnePlus Nord N100 running Android 11 and with enough space on it.

Any help? Thanks

I've been meaning to root my phone for a long time and I did try once before however I can't ever seem to get past the step of unlocking the bootloader. The USB unlock toggle in developer options doesn't appear to me AT ALL nor the phone will ever reboot into bootloader. It's carrier unlocked too! What am i doing wrong, i feel like ive tried everything.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] ervisii:
impossible afaik
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] AcE2DuCe:
Bootloaders have been locked down for years. The carrier don't allow it on their network so the manufacturers locked it. It's been like this for years. If we as customer could ban together and sue them for our right to do want we want with our devices. Just like we do with our computers, imagine your local service provider telling you want you can have on your private PC

And how I know my ban was lifted if I don't have WhatsApp installed? jejeje it's a vicious cycle ... thank you very much for your answer
[General Questions and Answers] juancrod68:
I think it wasn't permanently because I could enter yesterday but I was banned again. Anyway that's I'm thinking to do... thank you again
[General Questions and Answers] runs:
try to use adb force install it
[General Questions and Answers] Fooking Rekt:
His issue is not that he is banned...

His issue is that for whatever reason Whatsapp fails to install.
[General Questions and Answers] icantlogin:
You need to be more specific. What do you see when you try to install Whatsapp, what error message do you get?
[General Questions and Answers] Fooking Rekt:
I did read his post, but it seems like you did not.

He is able to install modded versions of Whatsapp, but not the original whether through the Play Store or through an APK.
[General Questions and Answers] Fooking Rekt:
That's quite a useless suggestion if 99% of people use Whatsapp, unless you like to install 10 different apps just to communicate with a few people
[General Questions and Answers] juancrod68:
Thanks to everybody and maybe I wasn't very clear in my initial post (my english is not so good)... I was using FMWhatsapp until past monday when I tried to enter and received a message about my account has been banned due to SPAM... I reclaimed and next day I could enter normally once, at the second intent my account was banned again... so I uninstall FMWhatsapp and tried installing the offical from Playstore but the app didn't install... I download the apk from APKMirror with the same result... but I could install YoWhatsapp without any problem although I can't use my account for the same reason. The problem es about the official apk, it doesn't install and I think it's because the account is banned... it's annoying... I will try using another phone number... thanks again
[General Questions and Answers] simplepinoi177:
I know what I'm about to suggest is probably very obvious and I apologize if you might find it insulting to even bring up, but what architecture version are you downloading/installing? It doesn't make sense that you can't even install the .apk -- I can understand not being able to launch or login in the app, but for them to implement code for it to check if your phone identification is on their blacklist just to stop installation?! I know some Windows programs do this, wasn't aware any Android apps do... I come from a Pixel 7 Pro and that's the first Pixel device that stopped support of 32-bit apps, so I'm cognizant of apps not installing with that possibility. This wouldn't explain it not installing from the Play Store though....but it just might explain why the ones from APK Mirror isn't...

interestingly enough, according to APK Mirror, the betas state "Universal" under Architecture, but stable has the various versions -- maybe you are under their beta program and they didn't implement it properly the app being workable under all devices with all the various architectures...
[General Questions and Answers] juancrod68:
I know what do you refer and I use the APKMirror version for the structure (arm7 64bits) of my smartphone, but I know if you install from Playstore it chooses the right version for your mobile and I can't install neither. I will try installing using another new phone number line or the business whatsapp... but it's really annoying, thank you for the comment
[General Questions and Answers] icantlogin:
Well if you refuse to tell us what happens when you try to install Whatsapp it's difficult to help you. Surely you get an error message? Or does it just say "can't install"?

I get the message "the app doesn't install" every time I try to do it, from Playstore or APKmirror

[General Questions and Answers] Daniel.dlugi:
Hi there. Guess I have found someone with the exact same problem. I simply can't install that Whatsapp anymore, neither Whatsapp Business. Getting the same answer - can't install. Screenshot attached. Does anyone know that to do?

There is over 3GB free on the phone, every other app works fine and install with no problem, I have cleaned play store cache and data, removed updates, also connected my phone to PC and removed all whatsapp leftover files and folders.. I don't know what to do anymore. I can easily install any other alternative like GB Whatsapp etc, but I am getting a message that I need the official app to activate account.

Well good news guys, I have fixed the thing. No reset needed, everything works fine like new.. :) All you need to do is to install GB Whatsapp Pro. It does install with no problem, then you uninstall it, and then it's done. All is clear and ready to install original Whatsapp from play store :) you're welcome :)
[General Questions and Answers] juancrod68:
Hi man, I tried to install GB WhatsApp early and didn't work, because I was using Yowhatsapp instead of GB... But I will try using GB WhatsApp Pro this time, meanwhile I'm out of whatsapp world and don't miss it at all jejeje

I have the simplest fix.

just use ADB on your system(computer)

* YOU are choosing to make these modifications, don't point fingers at me if something goes wrong

*/

Ladies and gentlemen,

A small modification for you with great and HOT results.

Changes I made to the thermal configuration:

-The default Virtual-SKIN-based throttling threshold for the SOC (CPU+GPU) was starting at 37 Celsius (Pixel 8 series), which was removed and the first throttling threshold value is now 52 Celsius.

Keep in mind that SOC will throttle regardless of when it hits its own TjMax values so you don't need to worry about any "meltdown". lol

- This also affects display, so the display won't switch to 60Hz anymore and neither will the maximal possible brightness be reduced as it is normally happening with stock throttling thresholds.

It also affects the charging and some other parts, so, they won't throttle that early.

Should work on most ROMs since they include the default thermal configuration files from Google's sources.

Pros:

- Throttling thresholds are drastically increased, meaning if you experienced any HIGH FPS drops while playing any "heavy" games, this will prevent that from happening to an extent and time.

- Any apps that rely on high processing power, will have more space and time to work without being affected by thermal throttling

Cons:

- Depending on your usage and what exactly you do on your phone, the device could get uncomfortably warm in your hands, and battery temperature will rise MORE than you got used to it since the SOC won't be throttled that fast as it does on the stock. Keep in mind that high battery temps are not healthy, and they will cause faster degradation. Degradation occurs anyway, the question is only how fast based on the temps the battery is being exposed to. Many OEMs allow such temps, so, the Pixel 8 series with this mod isn't anything different compared to them.

- If you're a heavy "gamer" and play some games like Genshin, TOF, COD (at 120fps), etc... (you'll have a smoother experience (less FPS drops) based on slower/weaker throttling) but I recommend always using a Peltier cooler to keep that battery and the device as cool as possible (regardless if this phone or another).

Have fun frying eggs on your "efficient" Tensor G3. :giggle:

Installation

- Flash via Magisk

- Reboot your device

- Enjoy

NOTICE: I don't own the Pixel 8 Pro device, I own the Pixel 7 Pro, the throttling mechanism is basically the "same" between these devices so this mod should work fine, but feedback would be nice regardless.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Gilg@mesh:
if I don't game at all, is it still "worth" using this? thanks
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] JohnTheFarm3r:
To be honest, if you just use your device as an "Average", you don't need this.

This is mainly affecting people who use their devices for apps or games that require more processing power since due to the horrible cooling implementation in Pixel devices, they hit the default thresholds REALLY fast and they throttle hard.

Tensor is an inefficient SOC combined with basically no proper cooling design.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Gilg@mesh:
I still flashed it, thanks, haha.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Tracker31:
just flashed it without problems. going to test how it will affect phone
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] JohnTheFarm3r:
The "best" way to test is to run for example a CPU throttling test for 15 minutes BEFORE this MOD and after this MOD. That's the "simplest" way I can tell you if you're not an advanced user and can observe the throttling behavior otherwise.

If you do this test, make sure that in BOTH tests the battery has the "same" temperature, otherwise, the results aren't accurate or consistent.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Tracker31:
I just start my phone and saw temps around 100 degrees on cores temp, as before it was around 60.. so my phone definietly will not meltdown?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] JohnTheFarm3r:
Stock hits 100c on CPU too, not sure how you measure it and how you observe those temps and WHEN.

CPU has the same TJMax values in both cases (I don't change the TJMax values)

What changes here is WHEN the CPU/GPU gets throttled down BASED ON THE "Battery" (Virtual SKIN) temperature.

So, with or without MY MOD, your SOC can still hit 100c since that's the default SOC TJMax set by Google.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Tracker31:
thanks for reply now I understand how it works now. Do you research maybe how costly and how difficult is battery replacement on pixel 8 pro?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] JohnTheFarm3r:
No idea, but I doubt it's expensive. If you take it to a service center, probably be between 50-120$ for a replacement including the service fees.

Otherwise, a battery itself isn't that expensive if you know how to replace it.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Samuel Holland:
Wow, thanks for sharing! 👍👍
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] tserv95:
Does this result in any higher results for benchmarks such as Antutu, Geekbench, 3dmark etc? Curious if anyone who does this can compare stock and see if the difference is significant?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] pixel8kid:
Would this work on the regular Pixel 8?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] JohnTheFarm3r:
It should be fine. But you can post the Thermal_info_config.json file so I can double-check.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Israafil:
Can you release a version with the Thermal modifier somewhere in the middle like 45c?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] brownursidae:
modify at 45C， should work fine
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] AhmedRehan98:
This is how it looks on my regular pixel 8.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Agenesis:
I notice when fast charging the battery hits 37 then the charge rate falls off a cliff. But I think 45c is still a little too high.

Can you make one 40c?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Israafil:
The 45c version he posted causes bootloop for some reason.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Israafil:
The 45c version he posted causes bootloop for some reason

Do I just delete the hot threshold value above 45 if I want a 45c version? In the Jason file of course. Would be thankfull for your answer.

Is there an undervolt module available for the Tensor G3? The power consumption is too high，thanks
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] wuyue778:
When I was charging and gaming at the same time, the temperature reached 42 degrees Celsius, at which point it started throttling. Is it possible to remove the thermal threshold during charging in the file?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] srt54558:
I have no overheating at all with this Magisk module, but it's charging VERY slow. It's charging with like default USB rates (5v a2 ot something)! Why won't it change at 30w with this module?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] rsk_kelkar:
How to make this to work in a way that throttling starts much earlier at like 32-35 Celsius?

I'm from India (hot summers) and apart from photography I don't use any intensive apps. But I hate it when the phone (Pixel 8 non-pro) gets uncomfortably warm (40C) while just watching YouTube

I don't mind the lower performance as much as I do the heat
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] 聂海康:
是的 Yes, I just flashed this module, causing the second screen of the mobile phone card to restart infinitely
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Iven321:
I love the pixel's haptic feedback, especially when typing with the gboard, but I usually have power saving mode on when I'm out and about, and there's no haptic feedback in power saving mode, is there any way to force it on? I've rooted it.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anjarys:
Hi,

Help to ID this chip, what kind of chip is this? Its temp raises as soon as battery connected to mainboard.

At first it thought the battery is aged and doesnt hold a charge very long. Bought new one, same thing happens.

Then one time i accidentally put my palm on far left side of screen, while the tablet is off, feels hotter on the surface. Opened it, and found the heat source.

Unplugged the battery connector, it cools down. Plug it again and its temp suddenly raises.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] lewmur:
Does anyone have any de-bloating suggestions after rooting the tablet? I'd particularly like to get rid of One UI.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE] Village_Idiot:
You're not getting rid of OneUI. You don't have to use it as a launcher. There are other options like Nova Launcher or Microsoft Launcher. You can't get rid of it though. It is baked into the OS.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soldiaz:
Dear folks,

I am facing weired issues on Android TV S905x3, Android 9 regular stock...

The rom came with Playstore preinstalled and working.

Last week it started crashing. Then I tried updateing by sideload which failed.

Uninstall and new sideload installation failed too, so I wondered why.

The previously working package which came with stock is v 20 xxxx and named Com.google.android.finsky.application.classicProdApplication.

Weired:

The only way I could get working Store again was by grabbing the apk from APKmirror and move it to priv-app/phonesky and rename it to phoneksy.apk.

The one which works is com.android.vending_25.0.31-16_0_PR_369248054-82503100_minAPI16(armeabi-v7a,x86,x86_64)(nodpi).apk

I even tried others but the either wont show up at all OR the just show pending....

Anyone any idea?

There is a problem with all Pixel Experience Android 11, 12, 13 roms to date. During video calls in applications such as Whatsapp etc., the microphone sound is very low. Also, my own voice echoes back to me. There is no problem with my microphone, when I go back to stock MIUI software, it works fine. I hope the microphone problem has been solved with this Android 14.

Thank You for your tremendous effort regarding this excellent ROM.

I am facing this status bar issue (probably others also facing too) from earlier versions and hoped this would fix in 14. But status bar still not showing properly in 14 too. Could you please fix it in upcoming/stable version? This status bar situation occurs for dual sim and when I turn on both wifi and mobile data and lock the device.

[Nothing Phone 2] ImjustSaiyan92:
Hey all, Got my NP2 last night, unlocked and rooted it with Magisk, flashing TWRP as the recovery

Everything works fine and I'm loving it, however it wants to update to 2.0.3 from 2.0.1 and it ends with an error.

Factory reset and didn't root, still same issue.

I tried the manual download of the updates, and the only one that took was the full 2.0.1 image.

I'm hesitant to try anything more drastic as I'm reading about the crashdump requiring an RMA.

Anyone else have this issue? I'm wondering if it has something to do with Magisk (which isn't a huge issue, as I can always re-root after update.)

Thanks!
[Nothing Phone 2] bLack_Q:
You should get the stock boot.img on the device and then try again. OTA Updates wont work if youre rooted or any mods are active.
[Nothing Phone 2] ImjustSaiyan92:
Yeah, read another post for the NP1 where they disabled their mods and reverted to stock boot to update and then re enabled everything.

I'll try that when I'm off shift and report back. So far I'm loving this phone, it's giving me Oneplus 3T vibes.

Thanks!
