[Redmi 9A Questions & Answers] varignet:
Hi, I received a brand new Redmi 9A as a gift. It works well, except it's extremely slow and sluggish.

Could you point me to an up-to-date guide about how to debloat it to make it snappier to use? I hardly use any app.

I found this guide https://xdaforums.com/t/safe-debloat-with-xiaomiadbfastboottools.4100287/

however, XiaomiADBFastbootTools has been removed.

I then found https://github.com/0x192/universal-android-debloater

Is there an up to date list of apps that I could remove using universal-android-debloater?

Thanks!

I disable by using LADB app, without pc. If you setup it once you get adb rights just by connecting to a wifi. Then you can disable with many ways. For example app hail which need shizuku. If you have tasker you can automatice almost everything. Every time you reboot phone you need 10 sec to connect with wifi and run ladb again to get adb rights again.

Download that file you were linked to.

Extract the boot.img and copy it to your phone's internal storage.

Open Magisk and patch the boot.img

Copy the patched image back into the folder on your computer containing adb and fastboot.

Boot your phone into fastboot mode.

Open command prompt and navigate to your folder containing the boot.img and adb/fastboot files.

Run this command: fastboot flash boot boot.img

Reboot your phone with: fastboot reboot

Go into Magisk and make sure everything installed correctly.

Go to the Play Store and download root checker. If you did everything right, you'll see a prompt pop up to grant root permissions to Root Checker.

[Sony Xperia 5 IV] El Brillantinas:
Have you received this update yet? If so, what are your opinions?

I live in USA and I got my phone online, it's unlocked and the model is XQ-CQ72. Does anybody else have the same model and lives in the USA, too? Do you know ETA to get Android 14 here?

I tried to trick Sony by using a VPN and get the update faster, but I don't know if a specific country would work for this. I tried faking my connection in Germany, Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Finland and England with no results.

[Sony Xperia 5 IV] k_basara:
Okay so seems double-tapping to wake the phone is not working on AOD screen in A14. In order for it to work, the screen must be completely off. Makes me want to turn AOD completely off.
[Sony Xperia 5 IV] El Brillantinas:
I finally got this update last night.

Waving my hand over the phone when it's off doesn't activate Ambient display anymore. Too bad, I liked that feature.

Notifications changed in lockscreen, now you actually get full content of the notification at glance if you have Ambient display on, not just the app icon.

Everything else seems to be working normally, not big changes. I feel the phone snappier but this could be thanks to dalvik/ART cache being cleaned when updating.
[Sony Xperia 5 IV] El Brillantinas:
For me, this is still working but brightness goes to minimum in AOD, making hard to see it specially under the sun. This didn't happen in Android 13.

for those of you that dont know video share does not work on the htc fuze it your settings say wap.cingular. att has tried to fix this with no success still waiting on a call back from them. we know that the settings should say ims.cingular butmanually changing it does not work it has to come from htc like that. so it anyone has any suggestion please post. and yes i do have the service from att and it works on other video share phones.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] justpe8709:
I have had alot of issues with differant devices and VIDEO SHARE, to that i will say this; have them remove the soc code(feature) and then add it back to the account after a soft reset on your device. This has been the process that has corrected mine for many of my devices.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] tadevinney:
Any relief on this? curious if it is the ROM I am using or if it really isnt working.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] noellenchris:
strangely my phone sometimes says ims.cingular and I cannot connect and it asks for a password on boot up. Most of the time it is wap.cingular. Weird...

As for videoshare, you have to be on a 3g (H) connection to stream data and talk at the same time. I haven't tried the videoshare, but I will test and see what I get....any other ideas?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] iceberg1824:
vs is ok now

OK this is a miracle finally got my HTC fuze to do video share. When I started this thread I was so mad at ATT and htc. Well here is the deal I had tried just about every avenue to get this to work and after reading whitehawk82 post, one of his points stood out.

FIRST make sure you have the latest sim card from ATT and IMS APN Feature is activated, now be aware that ATT needs to reset your entire data service so the ims.cingular can kick in on the ATT fuze. To make sure this is working when you turn on your fuze it will automatically connect to ims.cingular as with all video share phones.

SECOND now that you are connected you would think it would work, well not quite that easy. Now you need to re-install original ATT fuze rom and finally when you go to contacts live video share call will no longer be grayed out. Put back all your info manually for best results sprite restore may put back some incorrect settings.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] GldRush98:
And this is why Video Share will NEVER take off. It's too ****ing complicated to get working on 2 devices, and it is completely USELESS. Seriously... I talk to people online and we both have webcams, but we don't get on cam just to talk. We just talk. Video is such an unnecessary part of every day communication.

2.) I have a conversation with a reminder thats been under it for some time. I have no idea what message the reminder is pegged to. Searching within the conversation for "reminder" only finds the word and not the actual reminder. How can I remove it?View attachment 6055933

Edit or delete a reminder

Open Google Messages .

On the right of the message or conversation, tap Reminder .

To edit the reminder, choose a new time.

To delete the reminder, tap Delete.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] pgrey2:
In regards to #1, uou can use the free version of SMS Backup & Restore (Play Store), back things up to an offboard location (OneDrive, GDrive, etc.), and restore after leaving the Beta (not sure if you're referring to an app or the OS Beta, but it's the same, at least in terms of backing up your SMS/MMS).

I've had near-perfect luck with this app,, enough so that I bought the paid version (to take scheduled snaps a couple times/week, handy stuff). I have zero affiliation or other, with the app or the owner.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Schroeder09:
Thanks but isn't that I. The conversation? This reminder could have been placed at any point in time. Whenever it was it was done accidentally. This means to find the message with the reminder I need to scroll through the conversation that's thousands of messages long and find the message first. I can't clear the reminder from outside the conversation. That's the problem.

I installed the newest TWRP, which didn't detect the .zips at all. I tried using fastboot to just at least get back to the stock ROM, but upon running flash_all.bat it worked for a second until spitting out this error:

Using Xiaomiflash yielded the same results - something about there being no tz_a partition. I cannot change the slot to A as one thread recommended (assuming it is not already A), as it spits out:

[General Questions and Answers] DMCalin:
Hello,

Today I decided to restart my phone as I usually do when it goes for weeks on end, however once it reboot the screen was dead.

Took me a while to realize it's just the backlight that's not working.

The weird part is that, if I restart the phone, the backlight works at the bootloader logos, but once the phone gets to the asus logo (guessing that's when it starts the OS boot), the backlight just goes off, and I can't do anything about it, I can navigate through the phone with no issue if I light up the screen with a flashlight.

A note about this phone, a while ago I broke it in half and had it fixed (new chassis with screen, all other components migrated into new chassis, but I never changed the back panel, I just had it slapped with some double sided tape on the back).

If anyone can help it would be much appreciated.

Thank you.
[General Questions and Answers] spiderpool27:
Soft Reset: Perform a soft reset by turning off the phone, removing the battery (if removable), waiting for a minute, and then turning it back on. This can sometimes help with minor glitches.Boot into Safe Mode: Boot the phone into Safe Mode to check if the issue persists. If the backlight works in Safe Mode, it could indicate a third-party app causing the problem.Check Display Settings: Go to the display settings on your phone and ensure that brightness settings are configured correctly. Also, check for any adaptive brightness settings that might be affecting the display.
[General Questions and Answers] DMCalin:
Thank you,

It happens in safe mode too, auto brightness is off and set to max, I guess my only option is to physically remove the proximity/light sensor, but I have no clue which ribbon it is and I can't seem to find a youtube video about it.
[General Questions and Answers] DMCalin:
update:

I removed the motherboard to gain access to the light sensor (from photos online I think it is that), the phone has the same symptoms without the sensor, backlight works only on the bootloader part, once OS starts booting the light goes off.

Hello Friends, I need a very urgent guide

My mobile restarts and restarts and restarts and ... does not come on at all. It just restarts every time.

I want to take it to safe mode to delete the app or at least make a backup but it won't work ( I Hold the Lower Volum key after powering on the phone )

Reason and what I do:

I wanted to install the painting program on my phone(infinite-painter-) cause my phone is Android version 4.5 then I went to site downzen and started downloading infinite-painter older version, so I downloaded the apks( I don't know what is apks ..and just changed the apks to apk ... :( ) , the file name was `infinite-painter-7020-x86_64-downzen.com.com.apks` after click on apk file ( cause i rename apks for apk ), .the application installer showed error message that the package is damaged and then the phone restarted and from that time ..phone now always restarted... that's it

1- I wanna know how to set My Samsung phone to Safe Mode ( cause I searched online and it says it's maybe because you installed x64 app on x86 architecture or something like that and this conflicts with the system itself or the app on the phone)

2- After going to safe mode I want to backup data and then factory reset the phone

What I do (Does not Work): SAfe Mode: after starting the phone click on power, holding volume key down ..but nothing happened (the phone not go to safe mode)

Thanks.

[Samsung Galaxy J2 Questions & Answers] spiderpool27:
I understand your situation. To boot your Samsung Galaxy J2 into Safe Mode, you can try the following steps power Off: Ensure your phone is powered off completely.Power On: Turn on your Samsung Galaxy J2 as you normally would.Safe Mode Activation: As soon as the Samsung logo appears on the screen, press and hold the Volume Down button until the device finishes restarting.If this method doesn't work, you can try an alternative power Off: Make sure the phone is powered off.Power On: Turn on your phone.Safe Mode Activation: Once the Samsung logo appears, press and hold both the Volume Down button and the Power button simultaneously. Keep holding them until the phone finishes restarting.If, after trying these steps, you still can't access Safe Mode, you may need to consider other options:Factory Reset via Recovery Mode: Boot your phone into Recovery Mode (usually by holding the Volume Up button + Home button (if applicable) + Power button simultaneously). From there, you can perform a factory reset
[Samsung Galaxy J2 Questions & Answers] M.Coder:

Other than factory reset..

Safe mode didn't work at all.

Last sunday i wanted to Change my Back Cover.

For what ist it? :-) everything works fine, it is only the antenna ?

And what cable i have to choose for fixing it?

Thx to everyone !
[Xiaomi 11T Pro] Renate:
I can't say without seeing it, but it's probably a "U.FL" cable.

It may be soldered at the antenna side.

My phone won't make calls on Xfinity Mobile. My wife's does and she has the same phone as me (Samsung Galaxy Note 8).

The Xfinity Tier 2 support confirmed my phone is...

Compatible to work on Xfinity network

Unlocked from AT&T

Activated on Xfinity

Communicating on Xfinity network

...however nobody at Xfinity can get my phone to make calls/texts. They tried a new SIM card but that didn't work either. They suggested I do a Factory Reset but they don't know that my phone is rooted. Could this be why? If this could be true, why does it work on AT&T with NO issues? I even went back to AT&T and it works fine! I tried porting my # back over to Xfinity and same issue, I still can't make calls.

I'm trying to avoid a Factory Reset if there is an easier way. Any ideas?

One more thing, I use a recording app (SKVALEX Call Recorder) and it works flawlessly on Nougat 7.1.1 but is there another recording app that works on any of the current OS's?

P.S. Xfinity's customer support is REALLY BAD btw! Especially their Corporate Executive Office. I would've thought trying to escalate my issue would help but it got worse along with the rep. :rolleyes:(n)

Is there a safe way to unroot my phone where I don't have to worry about viruses, etc. being installed trying to install KingRoot, etc.? I've read bad things...

...or should I simply give up?
