[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] pococo3:
Is running Android 14 a good thing? What advantages does it have compared to older versions?

On the phone I broke I had Android 13 and it had several disadvantages compared to Android 10 on this phone:

It's impossible to take screenshots in certain screens and they don't show anything within "scrcpy" (for instance in the lock screen).

"scrcpy --turn-screen-off" doesn't work: the display is always on when I use scrcpy (and I use it quite a lot).

The status bar only shows 4 buttons instead of 6 and I find that so much less practical.

I haven't noticed any other differences in the way I use my phone. So I'd prefer to stay on Android 10, unless newer Androids have objective advantages.

Do newer Androids offer better battery life, better stability or anything of the sort?

Otherwise why would I want to upgrade?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Flipz77:
No need to overthink it, stock A13 is bes if you want stability.

Otherwise, Matrixx A14 is a good ROM, fast and smooth with a promising future but I wouldn't say it's a daily driver yet.

Moreover, if your use of GApps includes Wallet, unlocked bootloaders are fukt for the time being.

Just stay on latest stock is my 2 cents.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 (2017) Questions & Answers] mutaqinmi:
Hello everyone, I here have a problem related to my cellphone namely Samsung Galaxy J7 Pro (J730G)

The cellphone suddenly experienced a blue screen. This happened when I woke up and saw a smartphone with a blue screen standing by. even though previously I played the cellphone smoothly and even played games with it.

I tried to enter recovery mode and download mode but it didn't work. Moreover, the buttons on my cellphone are damaged, making it difficult for me to press them, even to the point of pain.

I then tried using the Samsung 300k tools to enter download mode without buttons. in the application it was detected that the cellphone was connected, and when I tried turning on download mode on the tool and it turned out it worked. but the problem is the screen is still blue.

I assume maybe it's running but not showing. then I tried flashing using Odin as usual. but something unexpected happened, apparently a file message appeared with the words "re-partition error" and I also saw small writing on the smartphone, namely "Secure Check Fail: (PIT)".

I tried various methods on the internet but they didn't work.

so, can anyone help me? I would be very grateful for that :D

Thank You.

Hi

My s10e running OneUI4.1 (Android12)

Is it worth the time to update it to a newer Android version?

What are the benefits?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] krbjmpr:
Worth It? That is a question only you can answer. Look at the changes / advantages of newer Android version, and make the comparison with what you are running at the moment.

In my case, I don't think it is for most of my devices.

If you are able to identify an advantage that cannot be recreated with an app in Android 12, then MAYBE it should be considered. Otherwise, I wouldn't bother.

To upgrade for the sake of upgrading is something that I wont do.

[LineageOS Questions & Answers] _Rägnar_:
Hi all.

I've compiled a custom rom for supported device a year ago. It was Mi A1 device from xiaomi. So the reason why i'm intresing into building ROM for Honor 8 is simple - i'd like to compile another custom os - SailfishOS. For building it i've read that i need an android custom ROM with sources for building HADK. On my device i've unlocked the Bootloader using testpoint method. So bootloader now is unlocked and i can to flash custom rom.

When i've tried to search Lineage website i didn't found any information about huawei/honor devices. Also i found a lot of posts with custom lineage ROM for this device. So... how can i build it fom scratch if i have no official device tree? Also i dont know can i obitain source code for the kernel or not. I found something on GitHub but i dont know is it what i need or not.

Thanks for replying.

Hey guys, I got a HTC P3300 (Artemis thingy)

When I got it, it was ****ed up, had to hardreset it, and then got WM6 on it.

It worked a few, then just got really ****ed up.

Nothing is workin as it should, when I try to call someone, it freezes like a piece of crap, wifi can just connect, nothing more, WMP freezes all the time, it lags like crap, even when OC, I just dunno what the **** is wrong with this thing.

I really need help guys thanks

[Google Pixel 6] denzelle24:
If i root my pixel 6 can i still update it like a normal phone?
[Google Pixel 6] Zaxx32:
yes but you'll have to use this work around or you'll lose root and have to reroot after the update.

Before you take the OTA...

- Open Magisk, tap Uninstall, then Restore Images.

= If you have any Magisk modules that modify system, uninstall them now.

- Take the OTA update when prompted. To check for updates manually, go to Settings > System > System Update > Check for Update

- Allow the update to download and install. DO NOT REBOOT WHEN PROMPTED!!!

- Open Magisk, tap Install at the top, then Install to inactive slot.

Magisk will then reboot your device.

You should now be updated with root.
[Google Pixel 6] Jaitsu:
There seems to be something strange going on with OTAs and rooted phones; usually the OTA won't come through and will say you're already up to date even when there's an update out. This December was different, though, I did actually have the OTA automatically download and install on its own, and all I had to do was remember to have Magisk patch the other (now updated) slot before rebooting, and I kept root with no issues.

If you DON'T get an OTA, you can use PixelFlasher to patch and install an updated factory image from here, which will get you the same result - an updated, rooted phone with no data loss, assuming you select Keep Data. Full instructions here. Just takes a bit more time and effort.

[Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 Questions & Answers] dasrum:
I used Mi Pad 4 and Plus. I installed pixel experience plus ROM to 5 mi pad 4 and plus.

But, just only one pad 4 doesn't work rotate function. So, I tried to use EU rom (MIUI 10). It is working well. And then, I reinstall the pixel rom into pad 4. But, it didn't changed.

I don't know what is the problem. The other left 4 devices has no problem.

Could you help me ? How to fix this?

I used cpu-z app for checking the sensor output. But, there has no sensor data.

It is very strange. Additinally, during netflix watching, it turns automatically to longitude. After the watching, it fixed longitude only.

Could I fix this problem using something tools?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 FE] Ahmed_Essam:

I tried to reset the phone, downgrade to android 13 (One UI 5.1) but nothing works. I tried to disable battery optimization, wifi intelligent labs Everything I found on the internet. I can't solve it. wifi and bluetooth disconnected when I was playing yt on the background or downloading something. not disconnected when the screen is on or I'm active on the phone. I don't know what to do. I know it's not a serious problem cause wifi and bluetooth is working if I didn't play yt on the background or download some thing on my phone. there is no problem when playing spotify.

Is there any diference to eu?

[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Elinx:
imho the hardware is identical, but Miui is in accordance with the specific EU regulations.

For example the EU version has no call recording and the earbud volume will be limited.

Also it could be that the data collection is more strict.

Install the purchased HU. Audio is output through the mini phone jack and converted to MMI plug to output HU audio.

However, the audio quality is poor and the sound is distorted. So here are the questions.

1.I thought the problem would be solved by connecting to MMI via bluetooth and outputting sound, but there is no bluetooth connection setting on Android HU in the first place. Do you think it is possible to make it appear?

2.If Bluetooth connection is not possible, is there any way to improve the sound quality? (Place an amplifier in between)

Thank you.

That's the tablet I have here.. under LOS 19.1 I have frequent, random crashes of the fingerprint sensor driver.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] surdu_petru:
Yes and No ....

I hoped that what I found wrong in the kernel was also related to the fingerprint (unfortunately it was an error - which I also fixed) but it was not directly related to the fingerprint part

however, compared to LOS 19.1, there is a small difference in how I thought about implementing the fingerprint (if it works better or worse than in LOS 19.1), please let me know! For the moment on my BTV-DL09 tablet, fps it works without issues !
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] friedsonjm:
I found 19.1 to be slow and unstable; so far, 20 is a big improvement. No fingerprint issue so far. Yes, it is a W09

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rodken:
Some devices allow reinstalling pre-installed apps through system settings. Maybe, searching for "system apps" or "pre-installed apps" in your settings and look for MusicFX or your equalizer app.

You can try Viper4Android FX, Equalizer FX Pro, and Poweramp Equalizer as alternatives.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] missy0950843:
does poweramp can be used in spotify ?

No, Poweramp itself cannot directly stream music from Spotify. Poweramp is a music player app designed for playing local audio files on your device, but you can download songs to your device for offline listening.

Dear community,

I am in search of a new smartphone that is "degoogled," meaning it operates without Google services. I have been using a Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro with e-Foundation OS. Unfortunately, the device is now defective and economically irreparable, so repairing it is not worthwhile.

I am now on the lookout for a good smartphone that supports a "degoogled OS." Currently, I am considering the Nothing Phone (2), Fairphone 5, or Xiaomi 13T Pro.

Of course, I am also open to suggestions from other brands and alternative "degoogled" OS options. My budget for the new smartphone is 700,00 - 800,00€.

I have a aliexpress android head unit for a ram 1500. I can not seem to get the back up camera to work. I bought a factory style tailgate camera to make it seem like the truck came “stock” with back up camera etc. when I go into reverse the screen changes to the back up view even before I ran the wire for the camera. Once I ran the wire for the camera “Note- I did not hook up 12v of power to the the reverse light” I used the trailer lights plug. Now with that being said I could get the camera that came with the head unit to come on a work using the wire provided as well. However I ran the wire that came with factory style camera from Amazon. I also had tried to use the wire that came with the head unit for the Amazon camera still doesn’t show an image. I’ve cut connecters a done this a that trying to get this camera to show an image. Any help would be awesome I just don’t understand how this is not working. I have hooked it up any way I possibly could find even used the canbus trigger wire an still nothing.

You might also need to cycle the power on your unit after you make the changes

Next time, always back up at least EFS on TWRP. EFS can never be recovered otherwise if it is lost or corrupted. I hope that is not the case. Ideally do a full backup before flashing ROM. How did you flash stock ROM? Was it with Odin? When you go to about phone, is there an IMEI number? Which variant of S7 do you have? Which variant of stock ROM did you flash? What is your country and telecom provider? Does the CSC of the stock ROM you flashed match this?
