[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active Questions & Answers] Chickenkillla81:
if you can turn on OEM unlock you should be able to unlock bootloader. you will need to install "adb\fastboot" onto your PC. you can find it with search. I suggest search "adb\fastboot, xda". then follow the directions for download and install onto your PC. then you need to boot your phone into fastboot mode. normally holding power button & volume + at the same time. connect phone to PC with USB cable and the normal command in your PC terminal is

fastboot flash OEM unlock

you will have to search xda for the exact process for your device because it varies per manufacturer. it is critical to follow the guide very carefully so you do not break your phone. OEM unlocking for the bootloader WILL wipe factory reset your phone so you need to make backup before doing that. rooting for the first time can be tedious and dangerous. also, not all phones can be rooted. for example my Verizon pixel 8 pro cannot be bootloader unlocked. so do your homework before attempting to modify your device.

Hello everyone! Lately I've been messing around with Termux and Termux X11 on both the Mi Pad 5 and my other tablet a Lenovo Legion Y700 installing a Linux environment.

The truth is that it works super well and since the Mi Pad 5 has no desktop mode or way to connect to external monitors is quite good to have a functional Linux desktop system.

I leave the video where I explain how to do it here (I do it on the Lenovo tablet but it works equally on the Mi Pad 5)

[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] DroidMaster0:
Hi try with this command inside the proot environment: sudo apt install dbus-x11
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] whiteallpe7:
thanks for reply. It was my first instinct to try that after posting question here. lol. anyhow, now its working like charm but how do I invoke the virtual keyboard in the Debian?
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] DroidMaster0:
In termux x11 in the botton part you should have an up row icon and a keyboard icon at the right (not sure if this only popup when you press the back button on your device, try it in case you don't see any icon). If you click one of those icons you should get the touch keyboard. Personally I don't use the touch keyboard but I think you can configure the behaviour in the Termux X11 preferences

I have an Android multimedia system for Audi and yesterday I kept going through the Android settings for text size and display after I changed it, it gave me a force close and reset. now when it starts, it enters recovery mode, the problem is that the system has no physical buttons to choose factory reset and restart the system...

how can I solve the problem, I tried with the keyboard (usb no wireless) it doesn't work

some help, some advice? Thx

[Xiaomi 11T] NOSS8:
Well, all of these posts are the same and the method you suggest doesn't work for everyone.

Unlocking with the Miui version, before updating to hyperOs, first avoids this problem.;)
[Xiaomi 11T] Doctet:
Yes ofc but for those who didn't unlock in miui can follow this one for hyperos
[Xiaomi 11T] NOSS8:
This is not the subject of my post, the subject is that the first two are the same and that the third post uses the instructions that we have on GitHub.

That's all.

Edit:

Also note that Médiatek soc devices do not necessarily need official Xiaomi tools to unlock or flash, unbrick, unlike Qualcomm soc devices.
[Xiaomi 11T] floast:
thanx bro it worked succesfully Mİ11T hyperOs unlocked succesfully
[Xiaomi 11T] matpack:
Hi everyone, if I well understood, Xiaomi 14 CN version with hyperOS cannot unlock the bootloader, except paying some third party able to do it.

What do you suggest:

1) wait until someone superclever will find the way to unlock the bootloader or bypass it or...

2) give up and forget to install another OS on it
[Xiaomi 11T] NOSS8:
Unlocking the bootloader must go through Xiaomi servers and as for your device it is a government decision, a free solution will never be provided.

To install another OS, the bootloader must be unlocked.

Hello everyone.

For a week or two every time I watch videos on Youtube, I can't remove the displays that overlap on the screen for the whole video.

I'm talking about the pause fast forward fast rewind icon and so on. I keep pressing the screen or waiting I always have these icons that appear on my video which prevents me from watching it properly.

Do you know where this problem can come from? I have a pixel 7 pro.

Thank you for your help.
[General Questions and Answers] EllieCat:
There is a feature on Youtube where you can “lock“ your screen to prevent it from doing that.

I never owned Red Magic / ZTE Nubia

Is it possible to add another software button to the navigation bar?

Thank you in advance
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] leveleyed:
OMG I'm so seriously, you guys! So super stoked right now that I waited 3 years to upgrade my phone to this super-kewl, newer, bigger, heavier, funkier, slower, glitchier, crashier phablet that totally makes me pull my hair out and wish I could just rip my own head off in an agonizingly-frustrated fit of blind rage like 2-3 times a day! ☺️

And the main reasons why...

1. the huge bump in pricing

2. the even bigger bump on the back for the camera (but to be fair, the 5x optical zoom lens is a pretty nice perk)

3. the fact that, 3 years & 3 AOSP versions later (from v11 on my P5, to v14 on the P8P), the performance of this brand-spanking-new "Pro" version of the Pixel is actually worse than the performance of my P5!

4. various new bugs and functionality issues I never experienced in the 3 years I was using the P5

and last but definitely not least...

5. these 𝘦𝘱𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺-𝘪𝘯𝘧𝘶𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 times when, seemingly at random, anywhere from 1-3 times per day, this demonically-possessed, overpriced chunk of Sa⸸an's $h¡⸸ 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙥𝙡𝙚𝙩𝙚𝙡𝙮 𝙘𝙝𝙤𝙠𝙚𝙨 - literally, just freezes up so bad that I 𝙘𝙖𝙣'𝙩 𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙣 𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙨𝙘𝙧𝙚𝙚𝙣 𝙤𝙛𝙛 - and even holding the power button in for 10 seconds (alone, or in conjunction with the volume-down button) fails to force restart the damn thing!!! (as if even the BIOS/firmware crashed), so all I can do is stare at it's frozen display, waiting for it to either reeeeeeally slowly unfreeze (as if it was literally frozen in time yet somehow my hands weren't, and it buffered all the screen touches I registered, and then gradually unfroze and displayed the UI feedback for all of the last input I entered when it froze until it had gotten back up to normal speed), or to just fully crash and restart itself after a minute or more.

I'm seriously at my wits end with this evil little demonic torture tool. In 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳 15 𝘺𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘴 of being an Android user/enthusiast, I've 𝘯𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 been as close as I am right now to getting a refund for a device and 𝘴𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘣𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘯 𝘪𝘗𝘩𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘶𝘴𝘦𝘳.😞🤦‍♂️😩😭

I seriously wish there was some kind of debug/troubleshooting app or tool I could check when this freezing/crashing thing occurs to see the system resource allocation the way one can with task manager or resource manager on a Windows PC. Maybe such a thing does exist for Android OS by now. Hopefully, if it does, someone reading this knows about it and can give me the info on how to get it/use it.

Thanks for taking the time and having the heart to read this diatribe of my troubled soul's lament. I'm sure this wouldn't be hitting me quite as hard as it is if I weren't simultaneously dealing with a nasty sinus infection, and undergoing diagnostic testing for some sort of neurological disorder that's been causing me some other really troubling medical issues over the past 1-2 years (the last time the freeze/slow-crash occurred, I was about 10 minutes into filling out a medical history questionnaire form for the advanced imaging clinic, and ended up needing to completely start it over after this POS phone rebooted). 😭

SPECS:

Pixel 8 Pro, 512GB

- AOSP 14, build UD1A.231105.004

- rooted w/ Magisk 26.4 (full OTA method)

2. Do a factory reset and set things up from scratch

be something he's set up....it

to be the phone itself, guys! I'm

SURE

all of these issues would still be here if he ran it locked bootloader and completely stock (no added apps) for 2 or 3 days.......

And in the case that it does, it's totally not like Google has warranty that could easily replace this under RMA and that's totally super complicated and not straightforward that this isn't a super big deal..........................

And for complaints on the camera bump, i'm sure it's not like he could go to a store and see a floor model or anything before spending the money on purchasing this "huge bump in pricing" (I'd understand if not in US, but post sure sounds American).......
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] fil3s:
I didn't read the post to be honest, I figured it was about the flaws of the p8pro. My 2 gripes are

- poor battery life

- low storage/no SD card slot.

Apart from that it's about what I'd expect for 2023
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] leveleyed:
Nope. you can check my history on the forums. been using exclusively Android mobile devices for over 15 years.

AFAIK, AOSP 14 is the stock OS on the P8P.

or maybe there's a difference between Android OS 14 and AOSP 14. sorry if I made an error there. I haven't been able to sleep very well because of the sinus infection, along with this noise in my head that is something like tinnitus, only more severe, louder, and fluctuating in pitch. It's seriously horrible. wouldn't wish it on anyone. It's like something between the high frequency whine of a dentist's drill, and cheap USB charger idling after a connected device reaches full charge.

seriously, I'm not bullshitting anyone here. I know it may sound that way because of the extreme nature of the problems I'm struggling with, and the eccentricity of my writing.

I'm really just trying to explain everything what's going on as clearly and in as much detail as possible in the hopes that there might be something I can do to figure out what could be causing it. I've had this phone less than a month. aside from rooting it and setting up my accounts and various apps on it, I haven't made any tweaks to any system files or anything like that. still using the stock OS.

I really can't imagine why the thing would just freeze up like this randomly, sometimes very slowly recovering from it, other times just crashing and rebooting.

maybe I just had the bad luck of receiving a device with some faulty internal components.i don't know. but there has to be something I can do other than completely wiping the phone and starting over, installing just one app at a time, waiting a few days between installing each app, waiting to see if it crashes again.

The Crash doesn't even occur consistently in the same app. sometimes it'll be when I'm trying to scroll down a web page, other times scrolling through photos in an album, other times a conversation thread in various different communications apps. It really seems impossible to predict when it will occur or what is causing it without being able to monitor running tasks and services to see if any of them are suddenly spiking the CPU or GPU, or maybe flooding the memory.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] fil3s:
I have, what I suspect is, cervical tinnitus, chronic pain, poor eyesight (I wear glasses) and a list of mental issues, depression, etc. so I understand how this can distract one from the pros, to just focus solely on the cons. I'm experiencing it now, as I'm in pain as well.

Strange how some days I appreciate tech more than other days
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] mulperi:
I suspect the issue is in your Magisk modules related to Play Integrity Fix. I experience same kind of freezing behavior in my otherwise super stable old Pixel 3a. What a pity that Google really tries to eliminate rooting by forcing Play updates.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] HipKat:
So are you admitting you don't know what you're doing or that you have a faulty device that needs to be replaced?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] HipKat:
We have this down to a very easy and non-impeding method now, using PF. Not to mention, Google seems to have backed off, for now, on killing fingerprints
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] erktheerk:
I've owned every google phone except the pixel 2 dating back to getting the HTC Dream (G1) on release day, and aside from form factor and the loss of the physical keyboard, they have all been better than the ones before it. I have none of the issues you're having, and if I did I would have some logcat dumps with verbose vender, wifi, and bluetooth turned on, winscope traces, and bug report or 12 to go alone with any of my issues, assuming I got stumped problem solving them myself.

Battery life is subjective based on your own personal use case and as to storage you can get up to 1TB if you are willing to pay for it and Pixels have never had SD card slots and probably never will.

Thank you, Bill, for posting a real response and potential solution, even though it may be time consuming and troublesome to implement.

I appreciate you taking my issue seriously, despite the fact that I expressed it comically and with a very exaggerated and aggravated tone of frustration (which is most likely a side effect of my current miserable neurological condition, or a result of being ADHD/ASD).

I haven't followed Telegram lately on that kernel (Because it's a pain to follow). How's that going?? on the P7P, it was by FAR the best kernel for my phone, so I'm hoping he has a solid version ready for the P8P

If you never used Odin before to go back to factory image then we'll just start from the beginning. I've had the same problem that you have with my last xperia and luckily there are way's out of the mess. But we'll just have to find out which one works.

[Samsung Galaxy A12] m4j0r4:
is that the same as the united Arab United Emirates?
[Samsung Galaxy A12] m4j0r4:
you did have the correct usb drivers installed before you went in to bootloop? just in case, you will need the ADB driver and regular device driver. Follow this link to get the ADB driver and read those instructions step by step and follow carefully. through this link you can download the regular driver. now, this is just a zip archive that you can extract and use the .exe file. I do think you would be best off if you uninstall any previous drivers from your phone to avoid conflict.
[Samsung Galaxy A12] m4j0r4:
now for the installation and restoring. first download the latest Odin from here (just unzip it, it doesn't need further installation)

2: make sure ADB and Fastboot are installed on your computer. follow this link to download.

3: download the right combination tool for your device firmware from here after download is completed open the zip file and extract the MD5 file that's located in the firmware map of the zip archive.

4: turn of your phone completely

The Galaxy A12 has a slightly different method for booting into download mode. Here’s how.

Press and hold the Power button. Tap on Power off to turn the phone off.

Connect a USB cable to the computer but not to your phone.

Press and hold the volume up and volume down buttons and at the same time connect the USB cable to your phone.

Release the buttons when you see that the phone has booted into Download Mode.

The phone will warn you of the risks of going into this mode. Press the volume up key once to confirm.

The phone will now say “Downloading”.

Once the phone says “Downloading”, it means the phone has successfully entered download mode. Now you can use Odin to flash stock ROMs and stock firmware.

Now that you're in Download mode, plug your phone into your PC with your USB cable. Odin should recognize the phone or at least a device. On the right of the Odin program, you will see 4 different buttons. Click on the ''AP'' and select the md5 file you extracted earlier. check the box to the left of the AP button and click start. the rest will be done by Odin
[Google Pixel 6] trueJP:
Hi folks,

I am currently trying to work out custom boot animations on my Pixel Phones. On several other phones I had no issues doing this, but my Pixels (6, 6 Pro and 6a) do things a bit different.

Here's what I found out (and tried so far):

Stock Boot Animations are located at /system/product/media and called bootanimation-dark.zip and bootanimation.zip

/system/.. is in a read only state (makes sense to prevent tampering I guess)

/system is not actually mounted, so I can't remount it to get it in a RW state

alternative location for an override on some devices is /data/local.

I can't even access /data/local/, permission denied (again, makes sense, as the phones local data partition should be encrypted anyway)

So I wonder if there is another way to achieve a custom boot screen on any recent Pixel with Android 13 or Android 14. Rooting would be an option obviously, but one I dislike because of security concerns. What I try to do is pretty much just doing the modification and afterwards reverting the phone to a locked, unrooted state where you can keep using Banking Apps, Social Media etc.

I have a couple of ideas, like doing it programmatically from an app that has a device admin receiver configured (maybe able to access the data/local path from within a user profile?), but I wanted to ask if it is possible anyway before starting to waste my time. I looked in XDA for any recent posts, but didnt find anything related. The older posts from the inital modding back at Froyo/Gingerbread times didnt help a whole lot either. And btw, I already tried unlocking the bootloader, didn't let me do the remounting/chmod afterwards either.
[Google Pixel 6] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
You can try creating a Magisk module to load the boot animation you want to use. To be honest however the boot times in most cases are fast enough now that custom boot animations aren't called for unless really simple.

That among other Pixel 6-related things are why I don't use my personal boot animations anymore.
