[Google Pixel Watch 2] Ducter:
Pixel watch 2 LTE version, been working with T-Mobile for several days now trying to get everything working. Last communication with them was 3 days ago where they told me they'll have their engineers go over it. My issue is phone calls do not work without being paired over bt to the phone (stock unlocked p8p) Everything else seems to work, text, navigation etc but no phone. Placing a call simply says call ended without connecting and calling it just gets me my phone's voicemail.

Looks like they set it up as a digits number, has that been others experiences? Thanks
[Google Pixel Watch 2] nafonja:
I have exactly the same problem but I'm in an unsupported country so had to do a lot of steps to even add an eSIM to the watch.

I also spoke to my provider in a hope to fix it. They say they can see me trying to place calls but the watch tries to connect to 3G for the calls and since they no longer have a 3G network they just don't work. I don't know how much truth there is in that explanation.

@Ducter have you managed to make it work?
[Google Pixel Watch 2] Ducter:
Honestly, I gave up. T-Mobile was of no help, Google of no help so I sold the watch. Wish I had something better to offer you but it frustrated me so bad at the end I just couldn't be bothered anymore. Several times it seemed to be working then out the blue, poof, no more.

Contact names not displayed on Audi S3 RNS-E Navigation Plus bluetooth but only numbers.

The problem occurs only with my Pixel 8 Pro (both October & November update) and works fine with all previous Nexus/Pixel phones I had, latest being the Pixel 7 Pro with Android 14.

The Phone-book has been successfully downloaded and when I call from the car unit the names are shown on the display but not when I receive a call. I have allowed all permissions.

any ideas highly appreciated.

thnx
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] danw_oz:
I would, delete it from your car and forget the connection on your phone, and re add the bluetooth and re-accept the pop up to access to phone. I am not sure about your car but mine syncs the contacts to the car audio system at this point. You should be able to search for them in the car after
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] derausgewanderte:
I'd also suggest clearing cache and possibly data on Android Auto on the phone (Settings, Apps, Android Auto, Storage and Cache). While in there also check Permissions of the app and ensure access to contacts.

cheers
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] armaki:
Thank you guys, I have done a reset on both the car unit and phone BT a few times, then allowing to read contacts while pairing but problem persists. The only other option would be factory resetting the phone.

Cheers

Edit: Factory reset of the phone but the problem persists.
[General Questions and Answers] fuiyohtanay:
I tried flashing a clean os with a locked bootloader but stalkerware still persists so should i unlock the bootloader to flash it?

Android: By default, most Android devices ship with a locked bootloader, meaning that users can't flash the bootloader or device partitions. If needed, you (and device users with Developer options enabled) can unlock the bootloader to flash new images.

Quora:No, It is not possible! Because bootloader is the software which is responsible for your device to Boot into the system, a locked bootloader will only Boot your device into the system when it has all the required files which is Already Specified by the manufacturer of the device.

So technically i have to unlock the bootloader to flash properly/fully right

Which parts are usually not included when flashing with locked bootloader?

So why didn't you just reset the device to factory settings? What kind of device is it?

[Motorola Moto G32] killerbees19:
The 8/256 variant comes without a charger. Do you know which charger is compatible with 30W TurboPower? :unsure:

No luck so far with the Motorola MC-302 charger (SJMC302ET1-CC), charging is limited to around 5V/3A (15W). According to the USB-PD specs that's the regular limit for 5V? Or should it use a different standard/voltage?
[Motorola Moto G32] shutdown-h_now:
I use the Ugreen Nexode mini 30W Charger (Model CD319). With a capable USB C cable it delivers TurboPower charging for Moto G32.
[Motorola Moto G32] amm0nium:
i'm going crazy for this.

i tried like 4 different chargers rated for 5/10/12/15/20v from 15w to 65w, i've tried 4-5 cables, no luck with ANYTHING.

at most i got 15w for a few seconds. "TurboPower" always shows up but it averages 12w.

i have NO idea why.

the only thing i can tell you, is that it jumps up to 10v while charging with the original charger! see attached video
[Motorola Moto G32] amm0nium:
have you checked if the voltage is 30 or like 12/15?
[Motorola Moto G32] shutdown-h_now:
No, I don't own a USB multimeter. In my opinion the charging process is fast enough.
[Motorola Moto G32] Vinifera:
AFAIK moto G32 doesn't even support fast charge even tho they promote it in specs and show that Turbo Power

in fact someone measured (think it was on gsm arena), and G32 doesn't even draw ~30W but some 14W
[Motorola Moto G32] blackhawk:
The easiest way to see if fast charging is active is to time and watch the charge percentage with the display off (AOD ok to use). When new do this so you can determine the nominal behavior of a healthy Li battery in your model. As the battery ages and capacity decreases it will fast charge quicker say 1% in 20 seconds vs the nominal 1% in 30 seconds*. Lol, faster isn't always a good sign.

If you're getting around 2%@minute or so from 20-70%** at 82-95°F battery temperature it's definitely fast charging. If closer to 1% a minute fast charging is not engaged.

Fast charging is temperature dependent; too low or high a battery temperature at the start of the charging cycle will cause it not to engage. 82-95F is ideal. At around 103F fast charging will disengage; use cooling to keep below 100F if needed. Never charge with the display on as it will skew the charging curve and fast charging.

If all parameters are met and it's fast charging erratically or doesn't engage when it was working well before it indicates a possible Li failure in progress. Any battery swelling is a failure; don't charge and replace asap.

^Fast charging.^

View attachment 6060611

Slow charging; fast charging failed to engage because cell voltage was too high and/or cool.

*These values apply to a Note 10+ using a 25w brick with 4300 mAh battery. Yours will likely be slightly different but you get the idea.

**The fast charging rate will slow at 70-80% then again at 90% as the battery voltage increases to protect the cell. Between 20-70% it should fast charge at its maximum rate.
[Motorola Moto G32] shutdown-h_now:
Thanks for your good idea and insight views. I will check this the next days and report back.
[Motorola Moto G32] Vinifera:
actually fast charging would charge ~90% your battery within 30-35 minutes

i timed my g32 with 2 different charges. both 30W

one has "qualcomm fast charge" green port, other has ordinary C port

they both charge approx 1% per minute

so from 1% to 100% takes about 95 minutes

and it is rooted with minimal porcesses working
[Motorola Moto G32] shutdown-h_now:
A few charging cycles with the moto g32 the last 2 weeks show:

Temperature of battery was up to ~30 °C (~85 °F) until ~70 % load.

Room temperature was about ~19-20 °C (~67 °F).

Charging speed between 20 % and 70 % was about 1 % per minute, so no fast charging.

App-indicated power was about ~11 to 11,5 W.

Thanks once more for your explanations!
[Motorola Moto G32] blackhawk:
You're welcome. That's Qualcomm technology I referred too. I never had to get into the nuts and bolt more fast and loose.

If the brick your using is compatible with the protocol that system uses, make sure the cable is. Generally all parameters must be met for fast charging to engage, safety feature.

Try toggling the software fast charging switch on/off 3 times, a Samsung trick. Try with the phone powered off completely too.

Try temporarily disabling Developer options too.

You may need to try a known good brick & cable if you're still having issues to narrow the culprit down. A small local repair shop can help if you get stuck on that.

From experience I can tell you if all the fast charging conditions are met but fast charging fails to engage or is erratic it indicates a battery failure. Li batteries can fail at any time... just like *that*. Generally they are a year or older when they fail but not always. The mobo power controller monitors battery parameters continuously and will flag fast charging if any are out of range.

Troubleshooting fast charging issues can be a bit of a witch. Any time the battery is degraded to 80% or less of its original capacity it is the prime suspect and should be replace anyway. If it has a charge port daughter board these sometime fail as well and can cause many different symptoms including no fast charging.

Generally these failures are rare. A ESD (static electricity) can fry the daughter board. Sometimes multiple events over time or even just one.

Make sure the Cport contacts are clean and undamaged by visual inspection. Clean carefully with a soft bristle toothbrush if needed. They can get a lot of lint buildup especially in cotton lined pockets.

edit, it's 80% not 89%
[Redmi 9 / Poco M2 Questions & Answers] neahahul:
Greetings XDA people,

I hope this thread finds you digitally well.

I've been trying to root my Redmi 9 Lancelot device for a few days now, I'm stuck at trying to flash a custom recovery.

Each time I flash a custom recovery and reboot to recovery mode, whether it was done by the key combinaiton or by adb in command line, I still find myself in Miui's recovery.

+ Another question: what's the difference between fastboot and fastbootd ? I only got fastbootd with blue color once right after unlocking the bootloader, and it returned to fastboot with orange color since then. In both cases the flashing was marked as successful by fastboot on both my terminal and my phone.

What do you guys think?

Looks like using MTKclient to unlock xiaomi's bootloader is not working as it should be.

I went to a technician who uses a paid program to root and unlock phones, and he told me that the phone said it's unlocked but it wasn't fully unlocked. So now I'm temporarily on a rooted chinese version of miui.

Until I figure out something else.

Its not true. MTK client unlocks the Bootloader correctly.

To have a hands-on I'll buy a Redmi 9 Prime by this Monday and let you know how to root it correctly.

The standard procedure I would follow is as follows

1. Unlock bootloader using mtk client and then erase userdata using mtk client itself.

2. Extract boot and vbemeta of my currently installed rom using mtk client.

3. Patch boot.img using Magisk.

4. Patch vbemeta using fastboot and flash it to phone using fastboot

5. Flash the patched boot.img using fastboot.

This shall successfully root the phone. Then install the custom recovery to the phone using fastboot.

I couldn't do it before because according to the guy in the phoneshop: "The MTK tool doesn't grant complete permissions to the device and thus, the bootloader wasn't fully unlocked" and ofc every time I try to flash the /e/OS, the phone keeps on restarting or taking me back to recovery menu.

The phoneshop guy unlocked the phone using some tools he has, and then temporarily flashed the chinese rom of xiaomi until I figure out what's going to happen with /e/OS.

[Xiaomi Mi 11] tsp12 haha:
Hi! My mi 11 fried itself a while ago (a relatively common issue I hear) and I wanted to replace the mobo, in my country, I found out that shops would take around 180 euros for repair, and basically I know how to do it myself it's really not that difficult and I've already disassembled everything so its not a matter of if I know how to, it's more of a matter of where can I find the parts, most official sites i've seen sell motherboards for almost the same price, while when I checked on aliexpress its literally only about 50-60 euros, and while there weren't too many reviews of course literally 99% of them were positive, the only ones I saw in different sales are:

1. the motherboard doesn't work well (didn't say how)

2. Fingerprint needs calibration (i have the calibrator already and i know this is just the person being dumb)

3. something about sound

Anyways I saw that these are really cheap but when compared to say the Mi 11 Ultra or even the lite, they all cost more, but I literally could not find any expensive sales of the mi 11 motherboard and only cheap ones.

Also based on the photos in the reviews it literally looks the same as the motherboard I have.

So I want to know, are all of these somehow scams, or is the Mi 11 motherboard just really cheap?

TL;DR: Mi 11 needs motherboard repair and motherboard cheap in aliexpress with so many positive reviews and photos in the reviews look the same as real motherboard but other phones are so much more expensive even including the 11 lite
[Xiaomi Mi 11] XL3N7:
I bought a motherboard off AliExpress. I went for the same as my old one (12/256) for a bit over 100€. Everything works as it should but fingerprint calibration was a pain to achieve. In the end I put it on max brightness and when it failed I would lower the brightness a notch until eventually after 15-20 tries it succeded.

The motherboards are clearly used though and probably faulty ones that were repaired and sold, so your mileage may vary.
[Xiaomi Mi 11] tsp12 haha:
Really? Thats interesting, personally i've already had to go through the pain of calibrating the sensor twice, its really annoying but i managed to do it. Interesting though about these used/faulty, as long as everything works I literally couldn't care but its interesting since I do not find any listings that cost more than say 60 euros, so I don't know how that works. Honestly as long as I get a working one its better than nothing, I'm using an S10 Plus right now but no 120hz and the incredibly slow charging speeds + battery life being horrible really make the experience worse.
[Xiaomi Mi 11] XL3N7:
View attachment 6030246View attachment 6030247View attachment 6030248

For some reason everything is more expensive when shipped to Cyprus and the cheaper ones are not available. Replacing the motherboard and the rear camera cost me nearly 200€.

I'm experimenting with a Note 20 Ultra 5G, with the Qualcomm processor but it's not for me. After the 11 I will be upgrading to the 14 Pro or Ultra if the new HyperOS is comparable to MIUI.

These the ones for meView attachment 6030252
[Xiaomi Mi 11] tsp12 haha:
Actually no tbf you did order the 12+256GB i'm ordering the 8g 256 which for some reason is so much cheaper
[Xiaomi Mi 11] XL3N7:
Yes, you have to open them and choose the proper variant to see the actual price. Some sellers sell the calibration tool as well and the lower price is for that, whilst the motherboard is well over that price.

I would be tempted to get the 12/256 version as well if I were you. The eu rom works well with Gapps, as also the few AOSP roms here.
[Xiaomi Mi 11] tsp12 haha:
Nah, I do not need so much ram plus its really so much more like you said (50 vs 100), also btw the 11.11 sale is soon so I will probably buy it then, does save a good 10 euros or so
