[Nothing Phone 2] dahool:
what an amazing ROM!

The battery is great (but the phone is new) it's fast and snappy, no major bugs found...

what I find that could be improved:

the auto brightness is still kinda weird either

* too dark or too bright.. I prefer to keep it manual at this point.

* videos In apps sometime freeze.

* No glyphs (but apparently not yet reversed API yet)

* no face unlock

* further costumization would be nice like being able to use dot font..

thanks for this!!
[Nothing Phone 2] dfogelstrom:
Theoretically, if I have 2.0.4 rooted with Orange Fox, I could flash this .zip?
[Nothing Phone 2] bhammler:
Thanks for the ROM. Everything is working so far, expect receiving text messages.

For Camera I recommend BigKaka Gcam with enabled AW (the button is next to the Leica mode)

I'm able to receive SMS on this ROM, without any issues ..

No this is a fastboot package

Next builds will maybe include ota package too
[Nothing Phone 2] DylanAkp:
I'm working on Nothing Camera (I can't guarantee anything)

But the old Nothing Camera 12.0.00.98.03 is working except portrait mode

This version is older than NP2 but seems to work fine
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
This here, is great news. 👍🏼

One thing that always seemed to bother me with custom ROMs was the lack of the original camera app.

Gcam does work but there's always something sketchy about it.
[Lenovo Legion Y700] shiftroyal:
Hi guys!

I've been having this issue the past few days, whenever I try to make a call on Whatsapp the screen starts flickering as in the video, it was working fine last week, if the call connects it stays up for a few seconds and it either hangs up or the tablet restarts, I tried reinstalling the app, factory resetting and ultimately flashing the rom altogether but the issue is still there, any idea what could be causing it or how could I get a log to check what's happening behind this behavior?

Also, I noticed that after I hung up the call before it connects there's an Icon on the upper left corner (See image), which I have only seen in this scenario, I don't know if it has something to do with the issue at hand.
[Lenovo Legion Y700] JointStrikeFighter:
I have the same problem with WhatsApp and as you said it was working fine before, like Skype works fine. The icon that shows in the status bar is for the screen recorder i believe (or some recorder).

I think somehow WhatsApp is triggering it while trying to start the microphone. I haven't had the patience to look into this and I just use my phone instead. Still, is annoying as I rather use my tablet for longer videocalls.

A Google search shows some people have the same issue with the legion phones, but there is no fix as of yet.

Since I haven't had any updates from the tablet the only culprit is the app, I was wondering if we can install an older version of whatsapp, say from October, and not have any security issues.
[Lenovo Legion Y700] shiftroyal:
I found here on the forum the following thread which seems to have fixed the issue:

https://xdaforums.com/t/legion-y700.4418573/post-89153287

I flashed the android 13/ZUI 15 China Rom, Whatsapp seems to be working without any issues at all, also, pen and keyboard works as well, might want to look in to that.
[Lenovo Legion Y700] JointStrikeFighter:
Got it working with this tip, thanks!
[Lenovo Legion Y700] lesmanalds:
@shiftroyal I'm facing the same issue but in legion phone Y70 ROM 14.0.772

Can you help me?
[Lenovo Legion Y700] shiftroyal:
Sorry I can't be of much help as I don't have that phone, I could advise to follow the same procedure I did with my Y700, at the moment I posted the thread I was on global ROM and switched to Chinese ROM as it had an update from my current software at the time.

My advice would be, if you're on global ROM try flashing the China ROM and see if the issue persists, also check if China ROM has a newer update than the current OS you're using so you could update after the flashing process.

I have the sm-t505 with the lineageOS rom, I can't seem to get the zip to flash from the lineage os recovery, even if it states that it is successful. If i try to extract the recovery image and flash using Odin, I can't get the tablet to boot into recovery (I can still boot into system).

Though the title of this thread says this recovery includes the 500, when I tried to use this recovery to flash LOS 21, it falsely identified my tablet as an SM-T505 instead of SM-T500. I had to revert to TWRP to get it to install.
[MX Player] lenny73:
Hello everybody.

I've been using a MX Player on Android TV (MiBox) for a while but recently I've been trying to watch movies on 2160p UHD HDR quality. They look amazing but unfortunately, MX Player can't keep up with them: there's a stuttering every 2-3 minutes (noticeable missing frames in the picture) and if there's no stuttering, after some time (10 to 40 minutes depending on the version), the audio gets noticeably out of sync with the video, and it gets worse and worse as movie continues. If I do a fast rewind, the audio and video are in sync again but having to do that, it's really annoying. I tried all MX Player versions, modded, unmodded, lite, custom codecs, everything. The stuttering it's gone on HW+ mode, but the audio sound terrible, that's why I want to keep using HW mode. The less bad version I found it's a modded version 1.32.8: there's no stuttering at all but the audio gets out of sync after 30-40 minutes.

Is there a custom codec or modded version that could play this content correctly on Android TV??

Thanks.
[MX Player] ze7zez:
Check if you have a good enough network transfer to play UHD.

Compare with the performance of Kodi, which has playback optimization features. This will let you know if the problem is in the app, in MiBox, or your network.
[MX Player] lenny73:
I play video files from an external HDD.
[MX Player] ze7zez:
The way video is encoded also has a huge impact on playback performance.
[MX Player] lenny73:
I know. I tried different files. The stuttering is present in H265 UHD files and also in 1080p H264 files. Also I have the MiBox output on 4K 24 hz., so if I play videos on 25, 30 or more fps, there will be stuttering, of course. But the problem I have is with 24 fps videos, especially movies.

Last night I watched a H265 UHD HDR movie on MX Player version "AC3-DTS_NEON-ULTRA_Mod_Lite". I didn't noticed any stuttering or audio getting out of sync at any moment. I also watched 20 minutes of another H264 1080p movie, no stuttering either. But I need to keep testing it.

However if I try a different version of MX Player, there's noticeable stuttering every 2-3 minutes, and if there's no stuttering, the audio gets slowly out of sync. So, the player has definitely something to do with this.
[MX Player] Lalla1999:
Anyways, Mx player still can't produce or support HDR video's true color tuning like VLC,Kodi,svp,mpv etc. ,so why someone will choose Mx for play HDR files!!
[MX Player] ze7zez:
What is UHD and 4K video - Download 4K and UHD video

4K video resolution, also called 4K or Ultra HD or UHD, refers to a display device or content having a horizontal resolution on the order of 4,000 pixels.

[MTCD Android Head Units General] D3LTA9THC:
Hello everyone. I have a new Android Car Multimedia for Mercedes x156 2015 NTG5. I installed it myself. Everything worked except idrive. Trying to fix it, I changed the CAN BUS in factory settings, but nothing helped. For some reason, I decided to try changing it to NTG 6. After that, the system began returning to the home screen from all windows and applications. Now I can't go into settings to change it back to the home screen. It throws me back.

Is there any way to do a factory reset externally? USB drive, keyboard shortcut or any fingers tap, which could enter not the system but the boot menu.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renate:
Those apex modules are sure annoying.

The specific example that I mean is /apex/com.android.adbd/

This originates in /system/apex/com.android.adbd

The regular adbd service in /system/etc/init/hw/init.usb.rc has the option "updatable" that allows apex overloading.

Well, you Magisk that line out of the service declaration and apex still overloads.

The next step is Magisk'ing out some critical files in /system/apex/com.android.adbd

Kill the manifest and the pubkey with zero length files (verified) and apex still overloads.

Kill /system/apex/com.android.adbd/bin/adbd and it still overloads, tries to run, dies.

This is all on Android 11, but more generally has anyone found a way to deal with apex?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alecxs:
have you tried to add

$MODPATH/system/apex/com.android.adbd/.replace
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renate:
That's a good suggestion, but unfortunately it causes a boot animation loop without ADB.

More unfortunately, I don't have a Firehose loader for this, nor buttons that will take me to recovery or fastboot.

@Renate sighs and warms up the soldering iron.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alecxs:
that reminds me I always missed a magisk feature, booting in core-only mode after 30 unsuccessful boots
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renate:
It was a bit convoluted digging me out of this hole.

The first problem was getting to recovery or fastboot.

There are "button gymnastics" to do this, but the timing is really tough.

I had to solder into the UART to see when it wanted the power pushes.

Now that I've had practice, I might be able to do it without the UART.

PON Reason is 0xC5A41980 cold_boot[1] PON1[0] KPDPWR[1] CBLPWR[0] USB[0] DC[0] ChgPresent[1]. [6278 ms]

Recovery couldn't mount userdata.

So I went to fastboot:

fastboot flash boot_b stock.img
fastboot reboot
setprop persist.sys.safemode 1
reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot_b magisk.img
fastboot reboot
setprop persist.sys.safemode 0

Then fix my module, go to the Magisk app and re-enable the module, reboot.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alecxs:
another way would be creating file /cache/.disable_magisk but requires cache partition
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renate:
Oh, thanks! I was almost going to post an issue suggesting /cache/.pleasedontloadmodules since cache is easier to mount in recovery.

I did read https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/guides.html but there was no mention of that.

In any case, I would still have had to drag out the soldering iron.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alecxs:
What's your issue/goal with apex/com.android.adbd? I didn't understand what you're trying at all..
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renate:
I have a modded adbd without any minijail that I want to use.

It works fine in my custom recovery.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alecxs:
and $MODPATH/system/apex/com.android.adbd/files/adbd bootloops? on my android 10 it's simply /system/bin/adbd I don't have com.android.adbd or something.

Es mag etwas verwirrend aussehen für jemanden der neu ist. Jedoch ohne Fleiss kein Preis :D

Es ist einfach das immer wieder die gleichen Fragen auftauchen, welche jedoch mit einer kurzen Benutzung der Forensuche gelöst werden könnten. Irgendwann wirds halt einfach ein bißchen nervig immer wieder das gleiche zu beantworten. Also nicht eingeschnappt sein ;)

Auch wenn sichs manchmal ein bißchen genervt anhört :o

In meiner Signatur findest du Links zum aktuellen unverbastelten Originalen HTC WM6.1 Rom in Deutsch. Auch eine Anleitung (in deutsch) wie du SPL flasht (wichtig!). In der Anleitung ist zwar USpl beschrieben verhält sich jedoch mit HardSpl identisch. Welchen SPL du flasht bleibt dir überlassen. Unterschiede sind ebenfalls im verlinkten Thread beschrieben.

FRagen kannst du jeder Zeit stellen, allerdings wunder dich nicht wenn die antworten teilweise etwas rauh klingen, bei fragen die schon mehrfach benatwortet wurden. Ist nicht immer so "aggresiv" gemeint wie es sich anhört :p

Du musst erst dein Gerät mit Hard SPL oder USPL vorbereiten.

[Redmi Note 12 Pro / Pro Plus 5G] Xi12pro:
Hello.

I got this phone today and its probably the worst phone I ever have owned.

I have used the phone for 30 min and it has already dropped 15% in battery. Its gives me 3,5h of usage and its closely to my phone I have changed.

So the only possible solution I can se is to install costom rom, underclock cpu.

But I want bank, nfc payment, and som on to work.

So first if I dont like the new costom rom (os) is it possible to go back to stock?

Second: which rom is the best if my use is youtube, pods, photo/video record. No heavy gaming.

And how do i underclock.

Some of the ApS i have used has reakt om minsk manager and will not open and tells that it wont funktion with rooted device, whats the work around?

Help me...
[Redmi Note 12 Pro / Pro Plus 5G] Rares6567:
You can try lineage os. About apps that detects magisk manager.... did you tried hiding the root ? And about underclock, you need root and a kernel tweaker app.... Your phone battery may be damaged or the miui wants to eat some battery :D. Kindly check battery usage
[Redmi Note 12 Pro / Pro Plus 5G] Xi12pro:
But their isnt any officiel lineage os for Note 12 pro?

The thing was that the phone with magisk wasnt rooted. I had only downloaded the links app and directly when I deleted the app the other app started to work again.

Battery usage attached.

25% in 2h I think it drains to fast.
[Redmi Note 12 Pro / Pro Plus 5G] Rares6567:
Yeah, 25% in 2h it's pretty bad, depends on your usage tho. And about that magisk apk, there it's a setting to hide it ( the apk, not the entire root).

And no, there is no official lineage os or any custom ROM ( not miui ones). But the official it's just a tag yk? I started testing lineage os for a while, from the start when it got released, bugs were found, but we can easily report them to the dev and he fixes them. Now after a while the ROM it's pretty good, it's my daily driver ROM ( now I use modded miui cz other reasons, but you got it). So the lineage os it's pretty good and you should try it. If you don't know how to flash lineage os here it's a guide : https://telegra.ph/Installing-custom-ROMS-on-the-Redmi-Note-12-Pro-5G-07-29

I have had my Note 12 pro 8GB 5G sitting without sim card connected to wifi for 3 days and it is at 72% now. I do not think that is bad compared to Note 8 pro I have. Maybe yours has damaged battery in prolonged storage. I think there are apps that can estimate battery capacity.
