[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Sebring57:
Good morning,

Having purchased a Pixel 7 Pro, I would like to know if I should let the battery recharge up to 100%.

I always did 20% to 80% to preserve it with my other phones.

And I noticed that with the phone plugged in, it was working slowly, oddly enough?

ps: My best wishes for this new year
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] simplepinoi177:
One of the biggest criticisms of the Pixel 7 & Pixel 8 line is that, compared to other devices, it still charges significantly slowly comparatively -- the Pixel 7 I believe maxes out at 22W and the Pixel 8 is around or under 30W.

Then there's a setting called "adaptive charging" -- where it will take an alarm or a history of when you unplug it in the morning and will trickle charge it to 100% only by that time (unless you disable it for the night or the setting completely). This is most likely happening to you as well.

But there are veteran Pixel users here that have held the practice of that 20%/80% to preserve the longevity of the battery; like you. They use an app called ACC that seems to work very well -- I imagine there's a good chance you employ the app already.
[Google Pixel 4a 5G Questions & Answers] harri2cool:
Hello everyone,

My Pixel 4A 5G G025E, which I purchased from eBay USA in a used state, shows four different IMEIs while my sister's Pixel 4A 5G G025E (also from ebay USA but a different seller) shows only two IMEIs separated by a forward slash. Which IMEI corresponds to what? I need to get them registered in Pakistan and I need to know the exact specifics as I need to tell the telecom authorities that X IMEI belongs to the physical SIM and Y IMEI belongs to E-SIM. and I cant do a trial and error thing as registering an IMEI of an imported phone to be used in Pakistan is very costly. I need to get it right the first and only time.

Check the attachment and kindly guide.

Thanks in advance.

Ignore everything just see IMEI 1 and IMEI 2
[Google Pixel 4a 5G Questions & Answers] harri2cool:
So... do you mean, we shall ignore the two digits of the second IMEI after the "/" for both IMEI 1 and IMEI 2?

I take that IMEI1 is the physical SIM card and IMEI2 is the Embeded-SIM than.... am I right?

For security reasons you can try GrapheneOS or DivestOS. But they're deprecated for lack of community interest. So you won't get any official support.

Hello everyone! I wanted to share with you a video I made on how to flash the Chinese stock ROM to our Lenovo Y700 2022 as apparently there is not much information on the internet on video.

Does anyone know is this issue with 10seconds AOD limitation can be solved somehow?

[Redmi Note 12 Pro / Pro Plus 5G] rv7416:
It's under developer option.

Turn off MIUI optimization.

If it is not avilable then tap "Reset to default values" under autofill 3-4 times it will be avilable.
[Redmi Note 12 Pro / Pro Plus 5G] rv7416:

Thanks rv7416,

I've tried that, but it's brings FHET.

Without optimisation you cannot change some other things, like icons, custom sounds.

If I'm wrong please correct me.
[Android Head-Units] gonzo0o:
Hi,

The unit I have is with a MT8163 SoC(Mediatek) and it has 2Gb ram.

Manufacturer: Alps

Build number : AJ_2022.11.15.18_3_2214

MCU: CVD1810-WJ_22.10.24_399

Kernelversion: 4.9.117+

API: 28

The unit show it is with android 12, but clearly it is android 9

I have succesfully managed to create a readback of the stock ROM and BOOT1 with SP flashtool, and then used Wwr to create a scatterfile / preloader + split the ROM into the different partitions. See attached scatterfile.

The device is not detected by my PC running windows 11 and therefor not susceptible for ADB and Fastboot via USB nor wifi. both have been tried but the device is never to be found.

Only momentarely when the device boots up I am able to initiate, I believe, its preloadermode with SP flashtool by starting a process.

My intention is to change some of the configurations in the build.prop and/or other configuration files from eg. 0 to 1 or visa versa, in order to get ADB capability + see if I can do something with the bluetooth connection and be able to pair my bluetooth headset(it recognizes my headset without any problems in the android settings menu, but something is blocking it in establishing a connection with audio -> profiles turned off maybe..?).

I have managed to unpack the stock "partition".img, but whenever I repack and flash it to the device, it causes a boot loop (no changes was made to the files within the .img yet).

If I then flash the original "partition".img (used for unpacking), the device works fine again.

I have also tried to format the corresponding partition prior flashing - but still same boot loop result.

It seems like either data is lost or something is being indexed incorrectly during the unpack/repack process. I have tried several tools to unpack/repack, but always the same boot loop result.

I hope someone could point me in a direction of a tool used with success for a unpack/repack process and/or if I need to do this on a linux based setup instead.

Also, if what I intend to do in regards to changing the parameters in the configuration files is not even possible to do or will have no effect and therefore needs to be changed at a deeper level.

"For info, the device will only be used as a media screen for the back seats, and will therefor not be used with canbus etc. and besides that, only for feeding my interest :)

Best regards

Michael
[Android Head-Units] Renate:
I'm confused. Are you transferring 32 GB to and from your device? Why?

Have you tried the normal ways to enable ADB?

Sometimes you might want to change default.prop (or prop.default), less so build.prop
[Android Head-Units] gonzo0o:
No, I only flash the partition I intend to make changes to.

I did the unpacking followed by repacking on the stock vendor.img, to test if the process works before going forward making changes to the configuration files within the vendor.img - I tried same procedure on system.img with same result and with recovery.img I got a red alert related to verification.

For all above cases, when I flash my backup partitions the device works fine again.

Meaning there is a difference between my eg. backup vendor.img and my backup vendor.img which I have unpacked and then repacked.

Yes I have enabled USB debugging inside developer settings on the device but the device does not show up with adb devices in cmd - if this is what you means?
[Android Head-Units] Renate:
You've unpacked /vendor to discrete files?

Is there AVB on /vendor? Is there FEC on /vendor?

Magisk may be whimping out, but it's easier.
[Android Head-Units] gonzo0o:
OK, so this is not possible to come past unless the partition I want to unpack is decrypted first ?

There is a vbmeta partition so AVB yes also see below from the unpacking process (AVBv2)

How about just getting ADB to work first?

Can you load apks over WiFi?

Can you load a terminal app?

$ getprop | grep usb

Have you looked carefully to see if USB is presenting anything?

Does Device Manager (devmgmt.msc) do a refresh when you plug the HU in?
[Android Head-Units] Renate:
You're giving me a kink in my neck!

Ok, it says that everything is normal, but it's using the VID for Mediatek.

Use this (on your PC) and see if there is any change when you plug in the HU.
[Android Head-Units] gonzo0o:
My bad :)

Your link directs me to several programs but if it is Microsoft USBView my device does not show up
[Android Head-Units] Renate:
So, it doesn't go "bong" at all when you plug in the HU, like a normal device would?

Try in your terminal window:

setprop sys.usb.config mtp
getprop sys.usb.state

Or

setprop sys.usb.config adb
getprop sys.usb.state
[Android Head-Units] gonzo0o:
No it does not, definately not a normal device - A cheap android system with a crippled firmware :-D

I tried both and both "failed to set property"
[Android Head-Units] gonzo0o:
I patched the stock boot.img with magisk and flashed it to the device with sp flash tool. With root access I was able to set the properties as suggested but it did not solve the connection problem.
[Android Head-Units] Renate:
But does the "state" change when you change the "config"?

That indicates it's at least trying to configure.
[Android Head-Units] llllboredllll:
So you was able to obtain "root"?

[Tasker Tips & Tricks] Prydateer:
Hi guys,

I m using the payed version of Tasker for my Xiaomi Fold 2 device so I can have a split keyboard when unfolded and a normal keyboard when my device is folded. https://xdaforums.com/t/keyboard-app.4496115/#post-87543293.

I m using this tool to grant all permissions for Tasker and it always worked like a charm https://github.com/joaomgcd/Tasker-Permissions/releases/tag/v0.1.0

But since Xiaomi released HyperOS for my device I m running into a problem: I need to run the tool again from time to time because somehow my device "forgets" the Write System Settings permission. So then I have to connect my device to my laptop, run the permissions tool again and after this it works again. Sometimes for a few days, sometimes only for a few hours.

Any thought what might trigger my phone that it needs the permission again?

[General Questions and Answers] lm8lm8:
hello

here is something who freaks me a bit :

on a lienageos i received a MMS today. Just a pic.

thing is : my cellular data wasnt enabled. hasnt been since a while, days. I use mainly wifi.

i received the mms anyway. Normally, from another phone, eg iphone, i MUST enable cell data to receive MMS.

android's phone is in volte, without any google app, volte enabled.

the sender have a common samsung phone with stock rom system.

question : why then, from an iphone, the mms are well transmitted through cellular carrier,

as on android, it looks like to be coming from wifi (or something else?) if it must go through my carrier?

thank you

[Android TV General] Parduz:
I bought that TV Box about a year ago and installed KODI, but the internal storage is small and i want it to use the external drive for folders like thumbnails, etc.

Problem is that i have not write permissions on the external drives: no apps can do that (X-Plore, Kodi, whatever).

Now Telesystem updated it to Android TV 12 and i was hoping to get some results.

I searched a lot in this time and

found someone posting examples on how to modify /system/etc/platform.xml but as usual with linux and android that post is now old and the file is no more the same as it was, and i fear to modify it.

found someone else talking about /data/system/packages.xml and adding the permission to each app need it, but i can't acces that folder (the explorer tells me to pick that folder in the next window, but then instead of the permission question that appears on my phone, i get a message like "You don't have a suitable application for this")

So, as an android noob, i'm pretty lost.

Should i root that device? if yes, how?

There's another way to get WRITE_EXTERNALS_STORAGE permission?

I'm a programmer so i'm not scared by using ADB or whatever is needed, but linux/android are not my field of expertise so i'd need some step-by-step tips.

Thanks
[Android TV General] Parduz:
Thanks.

So it is impossible to set the permissions globally or per-app even with the right .... rights?
[Android TV General] bernarbernuli:
My device is Chromecast with Google TV, it is also Android 12. In my case I have granted write permissions to external devices in apps that require it like file explorers, VLC player or Kodi.

I know how to do it in 3 ways:

Through ADB:

adb shell pm revoke <packagename> android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE

.

Through your TV device settings, (on my device it allows it to do), I guess in your case it doesn't allow it because it is quite obvious, however go to settings > applications > select the app to grant permission and select "always allow". The other option "allow while using" grants a level of permissions that is not sufficient to access and save content on an external memory

Install by sideload in TV device, free version of Permission Manager X, enable ADB mode on that app and grant the permission for the app that needs it. Here is the link.

Release v1.24 · mirfatif/PermissionManagerX

2. Loading the img file onto a Fat32 USB stick and starting the TV with the power button pressed, trying three different USB sticks with no change.

3. TCL Support but no answer since 3 weeks.

Hello friends. I have recently switched to MIUI14 and I am facing a lot of laginess in the UI. I wanted to install a custom ROM and I tried to unlock the bootloader.

Is there any workaround to skip the wait time of 15 days?

Hi everyone, just got a new NP2 phone for the New Year, really enjoying it so far :)

I was wondering if it's possible to debloat the stock NothingOS by removing Google Services and replacing them with microG. Do I need to allow signature spoofing? How do I delete Google APKs (MiXplorer throws an error "No item deleted")? . I'm a total noob in this, so any help is appreciated!
[Nothing Phone 2] Binarybard:
If want to degoogle your device, you better move to a custom ROM (like LineageOS, Crdroid).

But you can try uninstalling any application using adb command.

Download a adb shell application (like bugjaeger) and connect it to you device via wireless debugging ( for that go to developer options and you'll find wireless debugging option).

Or you can download the application on another Android phone and connect it by OTG ( USB debugging must turn on from developer options again)

Then you'll need the package name of that app that you wan to delete. You can find the package name in app info or you can use application below-

Package Name Viewer - Apps on Google Play

This app show you package name and launcher class of all apps in your device.

play.google.com

For uninstalling app, after connecting bugjaeger to you device run command

pm uninstall -k --user 0 <package name>

And enter. That's it.

Now I use this method to debloat my device. You can try.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 12S] mate200:
Hi Everyone!

It has been a long time since I last visited the XDA forum, but the time has come. I'm planning to buy a new smartphone to flash and play around. My current bet is "Xiaomi Redmi Note 12S".

It is an MTK-based device, and I don't see any specific device page or any custom ROMs for it, though I see in general MTK ROMs availability.

What is the situation with MTK devices in general? Are they harder to flash/develop than those with snapdragon?

If I would buy this one, where should I start, try to adapt TWRP's recovery?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 12S] xXx yYy:
IMO flashing MediaTek (MTK) devices can be more difficult than for Qualcomm Snapdragon devices. This is because MTK devices are often more closed-source and have less documentation available. Additionally, the MTK bootloader is often more difficult to unlock, and the flashing process can be more complex.
