Media Monkey for PC - Google it - it is free and pretty easy to use

Even if you do this though, not all album art will appear on your Device while playing and I really don't understand Why some does and others do not yet. the easiest way to have album art show up on your device is to have your music devided into folders and have the album art saved in the folder in .jpg format and call the .jpg either "folder" or "cover" You album art will appear in WMP, s2p, mortplayer, tcpmp using this method. TCPMP will show some embedded album art and apparently so will s2p but s2p does not show all embedded album art for some reason - especially in cover flow mode.

I have 3 phones:: I have 2 Samsung S8+ and 1 Samsung S8

1 Samsung S8+ is my daily phone the other is a Backup S8+ incase i needed it, which at the time i did. I currently can connect to my wifi and surfe the net and also use as a camera. it is what is I suppose is called "unlocked."

The S8 is i suppose what is called "locked"

my question or questions are::

1. can i take the sim card out of my Daily S8+ and install it in the 2nd S8+ and use it as a phone and do a factory reset and wipe the phone...and all will go well?

2. can i put the S8+ sim in my S8 and use that as a phone and do a factory reset? right now I did a factory reset and it keeps asking for the previous phone number or possibly google account to finish. it was a previous family member phone and we do not remember the phone number or anything about the phone

[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
You can select between these

LineageOS

CrDroid

Evolution X

Pixel Experience

Paranoid Android

I would opt Paranoid Android because it s a custom ROM that is known for its focus on security and privacy. It includes a number of privacy-enhancing features, such as a built-in firewall and a VPN. Paranoid Android also has a number of customization options, including a custom theme engine and a custom kernel.

[General Questions and Answers] liquibyte:
I'll preface this by saying I've been running Linux since around '96 or so. I have run just about every distro out there, including doing several iterations of LFS and BLFS and am no stranger to the command line. I've written code in C using the API for xlib so I'm no stranger to the technical aspects of Linux in general and have found that writing your own toolkit is no small feat. I design electronics for fun and am no stranger to a datasheet and have been doing so for decades. I'm not saying this to impress anyone, I'm trying to impart the fact that you can get technical and I will be able to follow along for the most part. Hopefully.

I'm going down a huge rabbit hole with trying to root a particular device and the deeper I go, the more questions I have. I'm not trying to get help with that, I'll figure it out eventually. In doing so, I've read post after post trying to understand the ins and outs of how the hardware works and how Android differs in meaningful ways from my operating system and my hardware but most posts are just what files to use on a particular device and how to achieve the flash etc. There are posts about rom hacking and such but I'm not trying to do that either.

Generally I see that a particular device needs a particular set of files to flash to the hardware in order to work and that even a different device with the same underlying hardware may or may not work. I don't understand why this would be other than the partition scheme would be different based on how the manufacturer did their OS setup and maybe moved some files around. Why is it that we can't repartition our device given the same hardware to run the firmware we want? Is the partitioning scheme from the OEM just their way to lock things down and they use a bit of hard coded hardware to check that? In general, a computer is just a computer as long as you understand the arcitechture right or am I way off base with how this works?

I guess I'm asking for a deep dive into the vagaries of how the hardware and OS go together for everything to work and since I've never really gotten into the Android ecosystem, I'm hoping someone can point me to a detailed reading list. I don't want to hack my device, I want to code for it. I want to build my own Android to unlock the full potential of the hardware of anything I want to in the future, I just don't really know where to start.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
To my understanding there are a number of key differences between the hardware of an Android device and that of a personal computer (PC).

Processing Power:

Android Devices: Most Android devices use ARM-based processors, which are more energy-efficient than x86-based processors found in PCs. This is a major advantage for Android devices, as they are typically used on the go and need to conserve battery life.

Personal Computers: PCs typically use x86-based processors, which are more powerful than ARM-based processors. This is because x86 processors are designed to handle complex tasks such as running demanding software applications and playing high-end games.

Graphics Processing Unit (GPU):

Android Devices: Most Android devices have integrated GPUs, which are not as powerful as dedicated GPUs found in PCs. This is because Android devices are primarily used for consuming content, such as watching videos and playing casual games, rather than creating content.

Personal Computers: PCs typically have dedicated GPUs, which are much more powerful than integrated GPUs. This is because PCs are used for a wider range of tasks, including creating content, such as photo editing and video editing, and playing demanding games.

Display Technology:

Android Devices: Most Android devices have touchscreen displays, which allow users to interact with the device using their fingers or a stylus. Touchscreen displays are becoming increasingly common on PCs, but they are not yet as ubiquitous as they are on Android devices.

Personal Computers: PCs typically have traditional displays, which are not touchscreen-enabled. This is because traditional displays are more widely available and offer better image quality than touchscreen displays.

Storage:

Android Devices: Android devices typically have solid-state drives (SSDs), which are more compact and reliable than traditional hard disk drives (HDDs). This is because SSDs are not as susceptible to shocks and vibrations as HDDs, which is important for portable devices.

Personal Computers: PCs typically have HDDs or hybrid drives, which combine an SSD with an HDD. This combination offers the best of both worlds, as it provides fast boot times and data access with the capacity of an HDD.

Battery:

Android Devices: Android devices typically have smaller batteries than PCs. This is because Android devices are more portable and need to conserve battery life.

Personal Computers: PCs typically have larger batteries than Android devices. This is because PCs are not as portable and are typically used in a fixed location, such as a home or office.

Overall, Android devices and PCs have different hardware configurations that are tailored to their specific use cases. Android devices are designed for portability and efficiency, while PCs are designed for power and versatility.
[General Questions and Answers] mfessler:
Hello everyone,

as far as I know, a ROM update can (but does not have to) also update the WebView.

How can I update it otherwise, for example because there are no longer any ROM updates for the device?

I'm mainly asking because I want to keep WebView up to date since it is (also) used by the LineageOS Jelly browser.

Is it enough to always keep Chrome up to date?

Or is installing and keeping "com.google.android.webview" up to date (via google play store) the right way?

Thanks and greetings,

[OnePlus 11] eldonly:
Hi everyone,

I was on 201 before which was already rooted.

today i saw 304 version available and from the forum i know that it has no issue now, so when the phone told me to update, i just clicked "install".

i thought it would start to install the firmware and prompt to reboot, and i planed to install magisk to other slot after installation completed and before i reboot the phone.

But it just rebooted directly and i knew i messed it up.

i started to search for full firmware, which i can extract boot and init_boot.img from, but i got no luck.

The link of this site is dead: https://yun.daxiaamu.com/OnePlus_Roms, and i failed to download the firmware with oxygen updater app.

i googled everywhere but failed to find a link.

could someone kindly share your firmware, or your boot.img and init_boot.img from this latest version, please?

Thank you so much!

[OnePlus 11] eldonly:
thank you very much man.

however, i ended up with EDL flashing my device, i guess i really got bad luck.

after flashing this init_boot, i can reboot and enter system at first.

but magisk prompted that i need patch some files and reboot again, so i did that.

then i got endless boot loop, i can't even boot to bootloader or recovery..

so EDL is the last thing i can do, and lot's of work after that, sign...

anyway, thank you again for your help.

and a reminder to others: back up your data and download full firmware in case anything unexpected happens...

[Realme GT 2 Pro] tvhuy83:
There is an issue with the System UI app on your phone. I also experienced a similar situation after updating to Android 14. The solution is to clear the data or clear the cache for System UI. Note: After clearing the data/cache, your settings for the home screen, lock screen, etc., will revert to default, and you'll need to set them again. Please try this method; hopefully, it will improve the battery drain issue.

[Android Head-Units] pdkreitler:
I have an MTCH PX6 unit running Android 11. I have been hunting for a solution to route calls to the bluetooth application. For example, I click on a call hyperlink and it sends the number to the bluetooth app. I know there were apps created for past Android versions, like MTCDialer and CallsToBT, but they no longer work.

I would like to find either an APP or a Macro that automates this process.

Does anyone know of an application that can do this? Or a Macrodroid Macro?

In Macrodroid, I'm thinking if I can get MD to transfer the hyperlink phone number to the bluetooth app, it would be perfect. I'm just not sure what action to monitor.

You're on the right track as far as needing low level hardware flashing tools to fix this.

However...Most OEMs never made the files available that are needed to do this. The best you can do is replace the mainboard, but for a device this old, it probably isn't worth the money or the trouble.

Hi, i wanted to change Rom on my Pixel 6 pro for better performance, better battery performance and a UI personalizable and beautiful.

Can someone help me and give me an advice?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] junglism93:
Hello,

Without knowing your level of competence I would suggest the following (if it's below your level, no offence intended)

Search the 6 pro forum for one of the very informative 'How to guides' for unlocking the bootloader all the way to restoring your device to stock and get comfortable with the tools you require to get that done.

Once you're comfortable with the above have a read through the ROM threads and see which one offers what you want to achieve (it's all usually listed in the Opening Post). Some will be more battery friendly, others will be more customisable and others a mix of both. You may have to flash a couple to find one that suits your needs, and if you do, make sure to use the ROM for at least a week to get a true reflection of how it runs (unless it's unusable)

Feel free to ask for help/info or give feedback in the ROM thread should you flash one and if you get in a jam be clear on what you did that lead to the situation you require assistance with.

Evo X would probably be a good starting point for a solid customisable ROM as I have used them in the past and they have always been pretty solid.

Good luck

[Android Head-Units] can-opy:
Hello,

sorry, the unit I use i almost quite old but it works still ok for me.

I brought my Erisin ES4028A (from 2016) to new life, when I installed Head Unit Reloaded. Android Auto was the only thing I was missing.

It runs quite smoothly on the device.

The question is about can bus settings for using the steering wheel controls:

In the factory settings the can but type is set to "none" by default, I have never changed it, because the steering wheel key are working with the "normal" head unit apps as expected. Volume control, next title, phone call etc.

Using AA I would like to re-define some keys. E.g. the Phone key to Google Assistant, which can do the rest. Pressing this key opens the bulky Phone app of the head unit :confused:.

I tried almost all types of can-bus in the factory settings, nothing works, except "none".

There is a "SteeringWheel Controls" app which is meant to redefine the keys. It never shows any key press, regardless of the can bus setting. Even when it is set to none, where the key are working.

Does anyone knows how to change the settings and the connected actions?

Thanks
