Have a good one.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] (Sir):
im using poco f1 beryllium

It's running lineage os 20. Working fine

I want to install NGK Kernel

I've heard that NGK kernel is not stable with lineage os

Should i change the rom ?

Or i should just take boot img backup

If anything goes wrong?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Abdel1993:
Hey bro, I think your question is in the wrong topic, and this should be transferred to NGK Kernel topic.

But to answer your question: To this day, NGK kernel doesn't work on encrypted ROMs (exceptions aside) and the developer doesn't know how to solve it.

I recommend that you stick with the current LineageOS kernel (like I do) or use Rockstar kernel/ SilverCore kernel, which do work on encrypted ROMs.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] (Sir):
oh sorry, i will look into it if the question isn't already transferred to the correct topic.

yes i am looking for how to install silverCore kernel. Still have no idea what to do but ill figure it out.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Retrial:
As mentioned above, NGK doesn't work on encrypted ROMs except crDroid (at least in A13 - idk about A14).

If you want to install Silvercore kernel, you just download the .zip file and flash it TWRP or if you are in Los Recovery you just sideload it.

Why you want to change kernel? If you are casual user the stock kernel of lineageos is more than enough. You won't see huge differences.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] DenisEhm:
Hi. This has probably been said somewhere, but I can't find it...

I called Telus (Canada) and they told me, believe it or not, I was the first to complain about this, yet they tried it on several units themselves and they all did it:

When I try to rotate the phone in Opera, unless I am EXACTLY perpendicular to the ground, it will crash and boot me out of Opera - minimize it that is. I updated the phone with the G-Sensor app to make it better, but it didn't help.

Is this something we know how to fix by any chance??

Thanks

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] grahamkdt:
Opera issue...

Try updating to a newer version of Opera. There are a number of different versions in this forum, one of them should solve the issue... search away ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] chumbagen:
opera

the landscape mode is bugged, say's so on the opera website.

If you download the latest beta for touchscreens, the documentatoin states that landscape has been disabled. get it anyway, its way fast and shares bandwidth with wifi
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] DenisEhm:
Sweet, thanks guys!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] chumbagen:
Don't know what telus did, but the rom update also fixed this problem. Opera no longer crashes when switching.

I don't know if it is the best subforum to ask this question, but here it goes.

On an Android unit where I connect a camera via USB and the image is seen correctly, if I restart the computer the image is no longer visible, but I have to disconnect and reconnect the camera.

This is a problem since it is a car camera and I cannot reconnect the USB every time I start the car.

I think I have Android 10 although it says Android 12, I posted a question in another subforum today to find out what I have.

Is there any solution via app or patch that can solve this?

thank you.
[General Questions and Answers] krbjmpr:
I have a similar problem with video capture on a Tab Active3 tablet. Realized that capture device was unresponsive after a restart, but worked just fine after shutdown and turn on of the tablet. Hmm.

My solution was to use an OTG adapter to charge the tablet with. It also provided power to the hub portion of the adapter. USB power came from a power source that was switched on/off with key. So, even though tablet may have been in standby, the USB devices connected were still power cycled and recognized as expected.

Problem solved.
[General Questions and Answers] amrres:
Thanks for the response, finally what I'm trying is to connect the camera with an automatic timer a few seconds after the device starts

[Redmi Note 12 4G] afaqahmed43:
I had the same issue. flashing vbmeta will probably cause more issues. read this guide thoroughly and it'll fix your problem and also teach you alot about recoveries

Installing a Custom Recovery

All custom recoveries come in the format of an IMG file (some are released as a flashable ZIP, like OrangeFox, but there's still an IMG inside). However, installation method will differ, depending on where the recovery ramdisk resides on your device specifically. Failing to install the custom...

in short, use the command, fastboot erase misc and then use fastboot set_active a

after that install the recovery properly using fastboot flash recovery_ab recovery.img and then using fastboot reboot recovery.

hope it helps!
[Redmi Note 12 4G] Icarusz7:
could you please uplodad the Tapas global version fastboot version to any server so I can donwload it. I can't download it directly from xioami.
[Redmi Note 12 4G] afaqahmed43:

Can't find working one. Maybe someone can help?

Using greenify from playstore cause freeze of a system
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
haven't used this in years.

I use an app called App Manager, you can grab it on GitHub, remove trackers and crap from your system..

Battery life is already pretty amazing so not sure if it's overkill to use Greenify anyway..
[Nothing Phone 2] PhantomApollyon:
Out of curiosity are you referring to this one? https://github.com/MuntashirAkon/AppManager/
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
Yes I am.. superb app.

Click an app then check trackers, you can disable them all..

Uninstall anything and a tonne more, one of the best apps I've ever used.
[Nothing Phone 2] PhantomApollyon:
I'll have to check it out, appreciate the insight!
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
Use the like button buddy 👍🏼

You'll love the app, you'll also be shocked by the sheer amount of trackers on certain apps, I've disabled every one of them with no detrimental impact.

Betting apps and free games are the worst.

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] sovrce:
I have Core Player and love it's steaming capabilities. Doesn't skip and has plenty of feature to customize. The problem I'm running into is playing videos from my SD card. I have two TV show episodes loaded onto my microSD, 640x480. For some reason, Core Player skips a frame or two, sometimes, and freezes/lags for a solid 5-7 seconds other times.

I'm wondering if there are any fixes for this? What settings work best for the Core Player for the smoothest possible feedback?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] dogyo01:
Unfortunately...

This is not the answer that you want to hear (and I hope someone can prove me wrong) but you will probably will have to reencode those videos to a more CorePlayer friendly format if you want to use CorePlayer on your Raphael to play those files.

CorePlayer doesn't play nicely with H264 files yet on our Qualcomm chips. You can reencode to something like divx/xvid or wait until CorePlayer 2.0 to release sometime in 2009. They claim better hardware support will come with that version. Or you can reencode for WMP. Yeah, I know, kind of a bummer. =/

More info can be found on xda and fuzemobility. I think there is an xda thread started by k9tim regarding this issue if you want to read up on it.

One thing that helped for non H264 files was to increase the buffer size tenfold and decrease video quality to Medium or Low for better framerates. Didn't help me for H264 files but it did help me with some mpegs. I hope someone can prove me wrong.

Posted from my Fuze
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] joeh4x:
I watch movies and tv shows in xvid and divx with 1.25, default settings, high quality, with absolutey no slow downs at all. What exactly are you trying to play?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] sovrce:
Well, you're right - It's certainly not good news. But the bold'd part made it that much better, so it evens out :D

As far as the info goes, I really appreciate it. It's really no problem for me to leave my computer on overnight with a whole queue of files to re-encode. It'd suck if I was trying to get other things done too, but a fan on high and a few solid hours overnight should (hopefully) take care of these issues. Thanks again.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] sovrce:
You, or anyone else who reads this and has zero issues with playback, wouldn't happen to have drivers from this post installed, would you?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2892184&postcount=357

I'm wondering if that's the issue - different drivers on different phones. I have a stock ROM Alltel HTC Touch Pro, with no real desire to upgrade/flash/change the PRL. I ***LOVE*** it the way it is and probably won't be getting a different phone for 3-4 years. 99.8% perfect in my book (with potential factored in, too) :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] 10332007:
I have a stock Fuze and can get good playback.

Again it all depends on the source files your trying to play. Some of my trilinear and high quality audio encoded files chop / lag every 60th frame or so but at high quality its worth it. Medium quality it does not slow down too much. Most play smoothly till high action in which case they will slow a little.

Increasing the buffer and playing with the method of drawing can increase your quality. If I was not half asleep and my phone in the other room (wife asleep) I would check my settings. If I remember I will post them in the morning. Most of them have not been changed though.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] dr g:
I have those drivers installed AND playback issues. But you should install them anyway.

I'm working out some methods of encoding at the moment and will get back to you. I tried to fight the transcoding, but am starting to give in. The device just doesn't have a lot of headroom as far as playing videos, with currently available players.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] sovrce:
Any other thoughts on this or are we all just waiting on the next Core Player update?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] dr g:
Did installing the drivers help you at all?
[General Questions and Answers] Senthilkumar@86:
Hello, Can anyone suggest a solution to my issue?.

I couldn't register WhatsApp for a particular number. I have been using that number for more than 9 years. When I try to install and register my old number, it says, "You need the official WhatsApp to use this account." But I could register other numbers on the same mobile. I raised tickets and mailed them to the support team, but nothing worked. any solution kidly suggest.
[General Questions and Answers] ZG_DEV:
Well, i gotta ask you one question : Do you use official Whatsapp from Google Play?
[General Questions and Answers] Senthilkumar@86:
Yes, I am using official WhatsApp, which I downloaded from the link provided by the WhatsApp team. The problem here is that I can use WhatsApp on the same mobile with different mobile numbers, but I cannot use the number I used for the last nine years.
[General Questions and Answers] Senthilkumar@86:
Kindly let me know the solution for this. I really miss my friends and colleagues.
[General Questions and Answers] Chuadhry Ayaz:
I hope you are fine. Did you find any solution till now because I'm also facing same problem today kindly reply even if you did not find till
[General Questions and Answers] Taha_Huneineh:
Hey brother , have you found a solution because i got the exact same problem
[General Questions and Answers] Senliast:
I have the same problem. I was using modded WhatsApp for 8 years without any problem, now i am using the official one. But this message comes anyway. I already reinstalled WhatsApp from Play Store, deleted all WhatsApp folders, but the message comes anyway. I as well wrote to support@support.whatsapp.com and android@support.whatsapp.com , but always get an automatic responce, that i should download official app. Already since 1 month, and i am unable to solve it. Its just impossible to reach their support.

I think, the last resort would be to delete my WhatsApp account and try te create it again. If it doesnt work - well, i will be unable to use WhatsApp until i change number. Because i tried to login with another number on the same phone, in the same app - and it worked.

So, actually, the message is missleading. It means, that your number is banned.
[General Questions and Answers] vishwas vishu:
Even I've the same issue not I need to use my WhatsApp from playstore official one. Unable to use modded. Anyone finds a solution please let us know
[General Questions and Answers] passionicon:
Have you solved problem yet?
[General Questions and Answers] Senliast:
No. I was never able to login into WhatsApp, since i got this message. I am not using WhatsApp anymore, it's trash messenger anyway.
[General Questions and Answers] passionicon:
Did you try to delete account and reregister number?
[General Questions and Answers] Senliast:
Yes
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
To whoever is having this problem:

WhatsApp has most likely banned your number for one or more violations of their T&C, which includes but not limited to, use of unofficial apps, forwarding too many messages (which can be interpreted as spamming), etc.

Just move on to Signal or other more privacy respecting messengers, or use a different number if you must use WhatsApp.
[General Questions and Answers] SammyF76:
This happend to me once, i have no idea how to solve this, mailed this guys like 10 times, 3 times they mailed me and there's no way to make this work.

Same number works in other phones, but in the phone i'm using it isn't, soooo, i guess this is like a "hardware ban" or something like that.

btw, you can use other sim card with the same phone and still use whatsapp

-

In this case, i've never used an unofficial whatsapp client nor done anything that vioaltes they T&C
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
Quite strange when WhatsApp works with other numbers on the same device (which means there is nothing like hardware ban) and same number works on other devices (which means no ban on the account).
[General Questions and Answers] zeeshanonlyme:
If I'm getting the error 'You need to install official WhatsApp' while being on the official app, does it mean it's a permanent ban?
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
That is what I think is the most probable cause.

But I would expect WhatsApp to notify users if their account has been banned, AND also a warning before actually banning, to give the user an opportunity to stop violating T&C.
[General Questions and Answers] zeeshanonlyme:
Isn't there a different error message which explicitly says 'This number has been banned from using WhatsApp' in the actual ban case? Anyway to actually talk to a human support or submit a review?
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Getting the error "You need to install official WhatsApp" while using the official app doesn't necessarily mean a permanent ban. There are several reasons why you might encounter this message, and not all of them indicate a ban. Here are the possibilities:

1. Using a modded version of WhatsApp: This is the most common reason for this error. If you're using a modified version of WhatsApp (like WhatsApp++, GB WhatsApp etc.), it's incompatible with the official app and you'll need to uninstall it and switch to the official version from the App Store or Google Play Store.

2. Temporary glitch: Sometimes, the app can experience temporary glitches that cause this error. Try restarting your phone, clearing the app cache and data, or reinstalling the app to see if that fixes the issue.

3. Account flagged for suspicious activity: If you've been using the app in a way that violates WhatsApp's terms of service (e.g., sending spam messages, using automated tools), your account might be temporarily flagged. Check your email or the WhatsApp app for any notifications about your account status.
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
I know of one case in my personal experience. My elderly aunt was part of several whatsapp groups and she would keep forwarding messages (forwarded to her) to several of her groups. After a point, her account (phone number) got banned. But she was notified of the same.

You can check out WhatsApp Help & Support section to see what to do in case if a ban. I don't use WhatsApp anymore.
[General Questions and Answers] zeeshanonlyme:
I'm only guilty of point 1. I've deleted all the modded stuff. And clean installed the latest from playstore. However I'm getting the 'You need to install the official WhatsApp'.

Contacting support just gives me bot replies.
[General Questions and Answers] zeeshanonlyme:
At the end of the day, did she get her account back?

Contact sup only gives bot replies
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Uninstalling WhatsApp might leave some files and folders behind, depending on your device and how you uninstall it. Typically users use the "Clear data" option before uninstalling: this will remove these residual files as well as the chat database.
[General Questions and Answers] zeeshanonlyme:
I'll try doing that. But i also tried logging in from a fresh new phone, unmodded full stock and there also i got the same error message.
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
No. She got another number and started forwarding again. :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Just joking. She didn't get her account back.
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
It is a server side message. Clearing local data won't help. His account (phone number) has been blocked.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
The error message "You need to install official WhatsApp" may be server-side generated by WhatsApp, but it's not entirely confirmed. If you can prove your claim at 100%, then it will be so. For me it is most likely, error messages are embedded within the app's code and displayed when triggered by certain conditions.
[General Questions and Answers] zeeshanonlyme:
Update : Got back the a/c with some very funky hacky methods. This might /might not work for you but it did for me. You need to have a second phone for this that is unrooted and stock.

Download and install WhatsApp v2.24.2.71(apkmirror) on the second phone. If it asks that 'This version has expired on so and so date' adjust the phone's date before that.

Enter the number. Ideally it should send a verification text message to your phone. DO NOT ENTER THE CORRECT CODE. Enter some random code for first 3 times. You'll get a time penalty. Wait it out. Then enter the correct 6 digit code. You should now have WhatsApp working for you.

The old phone that I have is MotoG5SPlus.

Android version 8.1.0

Try it out.

P. S. Emailing them didn't work me. Every single reply was a bot generated one. In total i had sent more than 50 emails from atleast 5 diff mails.
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
Did you update your system time after that? And did you update the app? And did you try this on your first phone?
[General Questions and Answers] zeeshanonlyme:
Yes. After "Verification complete" message, i updated the date /time. One thing though, it takes quite a bit of time to open the first time after entering the verification code. It will seem as if it's stuck on 'Initializing'. But it does eventually open and then it asks if you have a backup and what name to set.
[General Questions and Answers] memocatcher:
So that basically means you have to switch phones permanently to get your banned account back?
[General Questions and Answers] zeeshanonlyme:
Nope. Using it in the same phone as i always was.
[General Questions and Answers] memocatcher:
I dont really get for what exactly you need the secondary phone then?
[General Questions and Answers] zeeshanonlyme:
Just to login the first time when the 'You are not using the official Whatsapp error' despite using the official app.
[General Questions and Answers] memocatcher:
So as soon as you logged in to the account on the secondary phone, the ban should be lifted and you can login to whatsapp on the main phone again?

Also do you have to put the sim card from the banned account into the secondary phone or can you leave it inside the main phone?
[General Questions and Answers] zeeshanonlyme:
After logging in the secondary phone (hopefully without error), i stayed on it for 24 hours post which i fresh logind in my main phone with the same number. After that using the official version normally.

If you have the same issue i can help you out by logging in from the phone.
[General Questions and Answers] memocatcher:
Tried it out, sadly didnt work for me. Now OTP has gone up to 48 hours... Rip my account I guess.

I'm glad it worked for you though.
[General Questions and Answers] zeeshanonlyme:
Connect with me after 48 hrs. I can give it a try for you.
[General Questions and Answers] memocatcher:
Got it to work.

What I did:

1. Upgraded my OS from Android 13 to Android 14 (some people on reddit recommended this)

2. Register a completely new phone number and sim card on WhatsApp (just use a prepaid one)

3. Then from within the WhatsApp setting, click on "Add Account"

4. Now add your main account which is currently banned

5. Finish
[General Questions and Answers] SineS3tro:
Ae you sure it worked?

Wont it not still ask to verify phone number when u add account(main account)?

Am using Samsung Galaxy S8+ android 9
[General Questions and Answers] memocatcher:
Yes it worked for me. Well ofc it asked to verify but it went through with no issues. I can just get it to work when adding the account from a different number though
