Flashing this tablet is surprisingly easy, just use ResearchDownload tool.

1. Download the driver, Unisoc Research Download 27.23.1902 or newer version and firmware from following links:

Tool: https://spdflashtool.com/research-tool/spd-research-tool-r27-23-1902

Driver: https://androiddatahost.com/dsa6h

Firmware packages: TBA

These 2 firmware files are still under further testing. Once they're fully tested, they'll be uploaded.

2. Install the driver.

3. Load the desired firmware package with ResearchDownload by clicking the first button.

RDD-128D-0-00WW-B01 is the global firmware.

RDD-1210-0-00CN-B01 is the Chinese open market firmware. Chinese education edition firmware will be added later.

4. DO NOT CONNECT THIS TABLET. Then click the third button to start flashing.

5. Power off the tablet, connect the powered off tablet to PC with both volume keys pressed. If you did it correctly, "Checking baudrate" prompt will appear immediately in ResearchDownload.

6. Wait for the procedure completes. If it's done, disconnect and power on the tablet.

[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] occupytheweb:
Hi all,

Nokia G10 TA-1334

Android 12 - not sure of exact version

Device comes up in fastboot

fasbootd screen:

fastbootd
Android Fastboot
Product name - ROGA_sprot
Bootloader version - unknown
Baseband version -0
Serial number - PT99652AA...
Secure boot - yes
HW version - 0
Use volume up/down and power.
---
Reboot system now
Reboot to bootloader
Power off

Constant bootloop

`fastboot restart recovery` brings up `no command`.

How do I fix the bootloop one way or another? It's constantly looping and with no recovery partition (?), I can't figure out what to do for the life of me.

Ideally would like to recover my data as a last resort, even if the device is now hard-bricked.

Appreciate all and any help, and thank you for your time.
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] mvikrant97:
Has the problem fixed?
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] occupytheweb:
No, not fixed!
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] mvikrant97:
Can you connect the device in BROM mode?

To detect the device in BROM mode turn off your phone completely.

Please note that I have tested this on Nokia G20 and G10 with Android 11 June Security patch and this method works however Nokia has

patched the BROM mode access using key combination in later Android Versions. Give it a try and let me know if the device shows up as

MediaTek USB Port in your PC and if it does not shows up then you have to use the test point to boot into BROM mode.

1. Install Mediatek Drivers on your computer.

2. Open device Manager on your computer.

3. Then press and hold both volume keys and google assistant key at the same time and plug the cable into the phone.

4. Once you plug the USB cable look for any changes in PORTS and COM section in device manager.

Let me know if this works for you.
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] Eliximbo:
If the "No Command" screen faced, you press power bottom one time then volume up one time this should make your phone boot to recovery mode then you can enter bootloader or do factory reset to fix your phone.

Please tell me if that worked for you.
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] occupytheweb:
Will try this ASAP and report back.

This doesn’t work on Android 12 sadly.
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] Eliximbo:
Maybe the best solution is to flash the stock firmware or at least flashing your phone stock recovery.img file in the recovery partition .
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] mvikrant97:
You cannot flash any partition on a Nokia Device with locked bootloader.
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] Eliximbo:
I don't know if occupytheweb said that his phone bootloader is unlocked or not but if it's unlocked so that method may work.​

Sorry maybe for this misunderstanding.
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] mvikrant97:
No problem my friend. I was just letting you know about it because you use Infinix HOT 30 Play and it may have worked on your device.

We all are here to share to knowledge.

[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] PiotrLobo6780:
Hey! I used on my Spesn custom ROMs like Paranoid Android, Pixel Experience, Superior OS, CrDroid and now SparkOS 13.8 every ROM (apart from Paranoid) has problem with apps reloading, like I'm listening to music on spotify, I go to e.g. Sync for Lemmy scroll, click link in it Firefox opens and then my music cuts, I go back to Sync and it's reloaded. I tried making zram, 4GB 8GB 15GB nothing helps. Apps are still reloading (I have 4GB/128GB model) even AccuBattery is getting closed in the background (even after disabling optimization for it). Anyone from you have the same problem, it's getting so bad that I can't have to tabs opened in browser because these two tabs are reloaded.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] appendicitis:
maybe background process limit?
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] gentano:
4gb aint enough for Android 12+ ... fact

original xiaomi roms are the worst (even after tweaks).. using LOS 20 on my SPESN since months and Im pretty 'happy' with apps background processing... but ye.. eg. running a ram intensive game still almost always "kills" all other apps running in the background..

get 8gb ram phone to fix this.. at least for the next 1..2 years... prolly 16gb required then... cuz google is garbage

the one and only good solution for 4gb ram phones is downgrade to Android 11 or even better 10...
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Samuel Ladziansky:
I using android 14 on 4gb ram and I have no problems, with apps I have problem with music app (music stop playing) only when I delete it from recent apps, but this is happening on every rom and even on my old phone so in my case my music app is maded like that, I dont know about spotify much because Im oldschool and I still download mp3

but yeah it can be process limit, go to developer option and set it to default

and after all that if you have magisk, maybe some module causing this so try one module after another disabling and you see if something change
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] gentano:
sure, cuz it depends on HOW you use your phone and HOW you define "problems"
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Samuel Ladziansky:
yeah you right, Im not arguing

My 911u1 is restricting accessibility permission for user apps. Is this normal, and can I override the systems restrictions ?

There is no " more " option available in settings, as the attached image shows, nor is there any other setting that I can find that is related to this issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] junglism93:
Hi,

Give this a try, copied from Googles site re restricted setting and allowing manually.

On your Android device, open the Settings app.

Tap Apps.

Tap the app that you want to turn on a restricted setting for.

Tip: If you can't find it, first tap See all apps or App info.

Tap More Allow restricted settings.

Follow the on-screen instructions

[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] Clamor:
Greetings! As you all know P1988 version of Tegra Note 7 does NOT have APX recovery images and thus cannot be recovered in case of brick.

I can happily announce that those is not the case anymore, at least partially. Recently there were developed APX tools allowing to use NvFlash without need of vendor provided payload key (blob.bin). These tools are based on bootrom exploit called fusee gelee (same which older Nintendo Switch versions use).

Unfortunately, there still are no APX dumps of tegratab p1988. This is why I am opening this thread at the first place. Anyone with a fully working Tegra Note 7 (P1988) please contact me, since vendors did not provide a factory APX image, the only way to get one is to dump it from a working device.

Known P1988 devices are from:

- Cherry Mobile

- Etuline
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] DieSkaarj:
Good luck, I revisted my bricked device tonight hoping for something. I found a .bct for the p1988 but without a blob.bin it's still b0rked.
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] Clamor:
Maybe it is not so broken. If you have linux on PC we may try to unbrick it.

If your has only bootloader/bct broken, it can be easily restored.
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] DieSkaarj:
Thank you. But, I think it's more than just the bootloader. I installed the final OTA update and it bricked the device. It only appears in APX mode now.
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] Clamor:
Still worth trying
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] DieSkaarj:
Sure is! How do we begin?
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] Clamor:
Do you have telegram/matrix/irc?
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] DieSkaarj:
I can set up an irc client.
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] Clamor:
Join tegra irc and ping me (clamor)
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] LordLeman:
Hello! So, the problem has been solved? Can we unbrick P1988 now?
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] Clamor:
Yesn't, method of unbricking exists but in order to unbrick apx dumps are needed.
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] NotADev1:
I have a Tegra Note 7

I don't know how to get the APX dump on it though

It is P1988

I somehow installed TWRP recovery and stock p1640 lollipop it even if the twrp recovery was intended for p1640

Can your device take apx operations from a p1988w image?
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] Clamor:
Not sure, but would be nice to have backups. Do you have matrix/telegram for quicker responses?
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] NotADev1:
Sorry, but I don't have it

Hiw do you make backups anyway

You might be able to use a dump that includes a P1640 rom because it somehow works on my p1988

It runs P1640 stock Lollipop

Recovery: P1640 TWRP

Flashed stuff: opengapps (for no reason), LiveBoot (made twrp backup before installing that), Shaky's custom kernel for Lollipop
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] Oswald Boelcke:
Hello and good morning, @Clamor.

We'd appreciate if you refrain from pushing XDA users to Telegram. Thanks for your cooperation.

There is t114 version of fusee gelee exploit which allows using of apx/rcm without proper authorization

hi i have an issue that is likely typical but im new here so bear with me. its a s6 lite tablet and a few weeks ago a friend tried to help me root it as he did with his S7. It didnt work and now when i turn it on it just says partition boot: reason boot hash of partition does not match digest in descriptor.

he was trying to install the custom rom i believe and root it through odin eventually but after doing the typical steps it just doing that samsung loop thing. is there a way it can just be fully reset to factory settings or is there maybe someone here who knows how to get out of download mode and go from there.

hi david, how could i check. thats what i think happened though.

i do remember there being something he said regarding it was unlocked but not fully or there being a way to reset it back

[Vivo X70 Pro+] Antor84:
Hi guys, after the terrible experience of a Vivo x80 Pro (defective product), I recently purchased a Vivo x70 Pro+. In your opinion, there are many differences in terms of camera between

the x80 Pro and the 70 Pro+?

Has the 70Pro+ improved over time with updates?
[Vivo X70 Pro+] minhklam78:
I love my X70 Pro plus. I ditched the Ultra S22 because I wanted a better camera.

The Vivo wins at night for me for photos and videos

The CPU and graphics are great for gaming.

I love its features .

Unfortunately I cant use Android Auto so Im waiting for a dongle to test on head unit in the car and naturally its a chinese phone so 1 percent of stuff are chinese that I cannot use.

Rest is in english.

I do miss Samsung voice commands but thats okay.

Vivo is great in every other way. Cheaper than samsung too.

The fast charge is awesome.

The screen is amazing.

The stereo speakers arent as loud. But thats okay

[Google Pixel 8 Pro] madphone:
In its current state, Google Photos on the Pixel 8 pro can only be used to view photos. It is completely useless for editing. Somehow, nobody seems to be interested in this and it is not mentioned in any review. It's about the following points:

1. No subsequent reduction of the Portrait Mode effect: the mode does not allow to adjust the effect before taking the photo by default. Unfortunately, this effect is almost always far too strong. Firstly, it makes the mistakes much more noticeable and secondly, it simply looks weak. That's why I've always tried to reduce the effect in Google Photos afterwards. Now, however, you can only intensify the effect because Google Photos no longer recognizes the portrait as a portrait and simply adds a new effect.

2. Editing with Google Photos destroys the image quality: this error has been there for a while and nobody seems to notice it. Apparently Youtubers use photos only as thumbnails. But especially with 50mp photos, everyone should see it. Add sharpness and compare after zooming. The image becomes blurrier instead of sharper and loses a lot of detail.

[Google Pixel 8 Pro] madphone:
Nobody else annoyed by this? I test on several devices so it can't be just me.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] CHH2:
For point #1, I never ever use portrait mode. If I need that kind of portrait, I pull out a real camera and do all the work pre-production. (Composing elements in the frame and choosing the right lens and aperture.) Portrait mode is lipstick on a pig at best. If you are wanting to use portrait mode and want control over it, I'd suggest shooting the photos without using portrait mode and applying it in Google Photos but still realize it's a bandaid at best. It's not going to look natural because it's not.

Point #2, I'm just not seeing it when I try this with some test photos I took previously. The only thing I notice is that the UltraHDR tag gets stripped if I sharpen in Google Photos but it doesn't if I do it in Snapseed. (I prefer editing in Snapseed anyway.) I don't understand what is happening for you to get images that are sharpened that are coming out that much blurrier than the originals? If I take in a photo to either Google Photos or Snapseed and apply sharpening then save, it's not getting blurrier. I even tried just applying 100% denoise to a night photo and couldn't get it to blur like that.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Spookymyo:
Same thing for me. Google Photos is working great. I don't get anything like what you're getting when I test it.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] madphone:
1. Applying Portrait Mode afterwards isn't the same: the depth map is generated using machine learning only. Proper Portrait mode makes us of dual pixel and dual cameras + machine learning.

Improvements to Portrait Mode on the Google Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL

Posted by Neal Wadhwa, Software Engineer and Yinda Zhang, Research Scientist, Google Research Portrait Mode on Pixel phones is a camera feature t...

blog.research.google

I know, it's still not natural but recent flagship phones improved the bokeh effect a lot. On pixels the development seems to have stopped since Marc Levoy left Google. But decreasing the bokeh to a minimal level made pictures look at least less like a smartphone picture.

Anyways, it's something the Pixel 2 could do already. They should fix it.

2. Have you tested 50mp pictures? Edit a picture. Zoom in as far as you can on the original and the edited picture, take a screenshot and compare them.

thanks for reminding me about snapseed, I'll give it a try. It used to be my go to editing app for years but unfortunately they stopped development years ago.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] wangdaning:
Isn't portrait mode supposed to be for close up images? Example below, it seems pretty good to me.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] K1nsey6:
I dont think you are sure what portrait mode is used for, its not for full screen landscape shots like your examples. Its to create a bokah effect around the subject you are taking a pic of, a focused subject.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] madphone:
The second point is not about portrait mode!
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] MrBelter:
Given the aperture of the lenses you should get shallow depth of field if you're close enough to your subject without using portrait mode.

Not the best photo on the planet but it demonstrates my point.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] thacounty:
I did some editing and zoomed way in on a wide angle photo. I have a P8P and unless I use sharpen, pop, and or denoise they all look altered, but I don't lose anywhere near the resolution you are showing above. If I use one or all of those 3, they get really blurry when you zoom.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] CHH2:
Yup, I was testing with 50mp pictures. When you say zoom in and take a screenshot, is this a screenshot of the photo after you have saved it and it's back in the gallery view or are you talking about while you are still in editing mode and zooming in?

And yes, Snapseed stopped dev most likely because any dev left from that team probably got moved over to Google Photos. I still prefer Snapseed though because it just does more stuff that I'll actually use. Google Photos editing tools up until recently were more for the "OMG! Filters!" crowd. No idea when sharpening showed up in GP but I know it wasn't there on my P6P when it came out.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] HipKat:
Google Photos is only a place I know my pics get backed up. I use A+ Gallery for everything else
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Iven321:
I haven’t used portrait mode in a long time, it’s been a mess since Pixel 5. Google seems obsessed only with catching up on new features, resulting in countless outdated and broken old features that have not been updated.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] lilhaiti:
Fake bokeh on any phone really sucks, it doesn't look natural and the transition in depth is usually too abrupt. The aperture of our lenses enable you to get natural bokeh if you get close enough to the subject,

For editing, I feel that Google Photos is fine for quick edit for sharing photos, but if I really want to edit, I use Snapseed or Lightroom (or any other dedicated editing app). Google Photos is meant to be a smart gallery, and that's it, all of the editing features are thrown in for good measure.
