[Android Head-Units] Anon_90:
Hello,

I have a CS15 of 2020. The head-unit model is 8227 and the android version is 6.0. I can’t find an update for the firmware and the headunit isn’t allowing me to operate apps. For example it says that the app is installed, but then notifies me that the app stopped working!

Is there a way to update the firmware or download useful and operating apps that are suitable with this head unit?

Please I would appreciate the help of anyone with some knowledge about this head unit.

i am not sure if it works and i need someome to test it for me since im using this phone as a daily driver. this is for project kebap 2.0. installation guide for it is on the kebap thread in the roms section. flash this after the kebap 2.0 zip and then flash the gsi you want.

if you want to know what i did, its in this thread at the bottom

Tried on J330FN, i have followed the guide to install kebab, and gsi (with your zip before)

The sound doesn't work, i only tested the sound.

What you've done is taken the blob and made a zip to put it in the right folder, right?

If you want, I can check which blobs are present in the original ROM, and which are present after installation.

i got the /system/vendor folder from the stock rom and im comparing the lib, etc and bin folders with the kebap zip. the kebap dev said that the audio HALs dont work on j3 so im trying to find where they are so i can replace them with stock HAL. did you check front speaker audio? it worked in radical quack. im asking around on how the vendor was ported from j6 2018 to exynos 7570 but no one is answering sadly.

in stock there is an android.hardware.audio@2.0-service in /vendor/bin/hw. i dont remember if its the same as the kebap one, will checksum later. heres the .rc for it

Has there been anything new in terms of a solution to the sound problem? In my opinion, the problem could be incorrectly entered tracks in the audio fix (after all, the author created them for a reason).

Hello XDA community!

I'm new to this forum, and to "android modding" in general. I'm seeking guidance on restoring my Poco X5 Pro 5G to stock firmware and recovery after having flashed EvolutionX's boot, vendor_boot, dtbo images as well as twrp-TheStrechh-R2 i downloaded from CrDroid in this post.

Did i mess up big time? I searched for the stock images to flash, to no avail. I did not check, but from the phone's behavior, i'm 99% sure that my phone has a fts_ts panel.

Any download links or guidance on where to find official stock firmware / solutions would be greatly appreciated.

If you've successfully restored a Poco X5 Pro 5G or have insights into the process, please share your knowledge. Your assistance will be invaluable in helping me get my device back to its original state.

Before flashing twrp-TheStrechh-R2, running fastboot reboot recovery would show the phone's name, then some white lines for a frame and then pitch black. After, running the same command will do the same thing, but it won't show any lines. Also, it vibrated briefly in both cases.

Please do ask if you need any more info about my current situation.

Thank you in advance for your support! ❤❤

Before i try anything risky, do i need to download something different to account for the fts_ts touchscreen?

I wouldn't want to download the wrong things, and get stuck again.

If anyone could walk me through the process of restoring my phone it would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks again :)
[Xiaomi Poco X5 Pro] NOSS8:
What do you mean by"download something different to account for the fts_ts touchscreen"?
[Xiaomi Poco X5 Pro] razzies:
Sorry for being so ignorant about this, i was reading around xda forums and i saw people say that if you have an fts_ts panel you couldn't flash some roms and whatnot... I thought i'd ask if i needed to download a different version of the rom and firmware specifically for this panel.
[Xiaomi Poco X5 Pro] NOSS8:
You have a Poco X5 pro (redwood) to return to the stock version, see my post above.

What you are talking about probably concerns AOSP Rom (not sure I understand).

Do you want to restore your phone or install an AOSP rom?
[Xiaomi Poco X5 Pro] razzies:
My concern right now is to restore my phone, then i'd also like to install EvolutionX on it if possible.

Mind that i flashed EvolutionX's boot, vendor_boot, dtbo images and crdroid's twrp by TheStrechh.

Would it be safer to do everything in one go, or to restore my phone first?
[Xiaomi Poco X5 Pro] NOSS8:
Flash the fastboot ROM (firmware requested for the EvolutionX) without locking the bootloader.

Its is safe to flash raw file directly? Or i need to unlock bootloader?
[Android Head-Units] BigD1976:
I have an Junsun android head unit with Z-Link (4.034). Up until 3 weeks ago it worked great. Now I have spotty bluetooth and get no responses from 'Hey Google' after it wakes up. I tried different USB cords, factory reset, software updates on all google application, and retrained the voice recognition feature for google assistant. Nothing has worked.

Not to mention, when connected to Bluetooth, it will randomly call people. After I disconnect the call, it calls them back again, and again, and again.

I did not update Z-link because the software says its up to date (update now button feature greyed out).

[General Questions and Answers] asdf2345:
I'm trying to copy some files into the /oem folder of my Xperia XA2, and I can't. TWRP can't mount the folder, I don't see it in the mount list and trying mount /oem results in some not found in fstab error or something. In OS, I've tried 3 different file managers and get non-descript errors. With adb shell and su I get permission denied. How do I copy files into this folder?
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
It requires root access on your Xperia to access the internal system partition /oem. If Android is rooted then use MiXplorer to access and copy files to the /oem folder.
[General Questions and Answers] asdf2345:
I have Magisk and I tried MiXplorer, it didn't work.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Weird.

IMO using ADB this must work:

adb devices
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /oem
:: You can now perform any operations on the /oem partition, e.g. copy files there to
cp C:\Users\<username>\myfile.txt /oem/myfile.txt
mount -o ro,remount /oem
exit
[General Questions and Answers] asdf2345:
H3223:/ $ su
H3223:/ # mount -o rw,remount /oem
H3223:/ # cp /sdcard/modem-config/ /oem
cp: Skipped dir '/oem/modem-config': No such file or directory
1|H3223:/ # cd oem
H3223:/oem # mkdir modem-config
mkdir: 'modem-config': Permission denied
1|H3223:/oem #
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
The error occurs because you are not aware of fact that mkdir command's default behavior is to inherit the permissions of the parent directory. This means that the new directory will have the same owner, group, and permissions as the parent directory.

You have to use the -m flag with the mkdir command to specify the permissions of the new directory explicitly. For example, the following command will create a directory named mydir with the permissions 0755 (owner can read, write, and execute; group can read and execute; others can read):

mkdir -m 0755 mydir
[General Questions and Answers] asdf2345:
H3223:/ $ su

H3223:/ # mkdir -m 0755 /oem/modem-config

mkdir: '/oem/modem-config': Read-only file system

1|H3223:/ # mount -o rw,remount /oem

H3223:/ # mkdir -m 0755 /oem/modem-config

mkdir: '/oem/modem-config': Permission denied

1|H3223:/ #
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Have you ever checked if the 'mount' command was successful? Take note that even after gaining root privileges, the 'mount' command may still fail due to various reasons, such as the device's security settings or the presence of custom software that is blocking access to the '/oem' partition.
[General Questions and Answers] asdf2345:
How do I check if the command works? Also would it be possible to mount it in TWRP?

I tried flashing a dm-verity disabler if that would help, but it didn't.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
I do NOT make use of TWRP because it is simply a GUI which executes all commands in the background that are also available / possible with the help of ADB and Fastboot when booted in recovery mode. :)

To answer your 1st question:

Run

mount | grep oem

This will display all mounted filesystems, including the /oem partition. If the oem partition is mounted as RW, it will show the filesystem type as ext4. If the /oem partition is mounted as RO, it will show the filesystem type as ext4 ro.

My last 2 cents here:

Here another example of mounting /oem partition as RW and there in create a subdir

adb devices
adb root
adb shell
setenforce 0
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/platform/soc/1e14000.ufs/by-name/oem /oem
mkdir -p -m 0755 /oem/modem-config

exit
[General Questions and Answers] asdf2345:
I guess setenforce 0 worked.

I tried adb root, and that seemingly broke the device, I had to reboot it.

The long mount -o command failed, but the short one works.

Now would you happen to know where I could find the /modem files? I have a mbn I want to add, but not sure where to put it.

This entire thing is me trying the Xperia 10 modem files on the Xperia XA2. There are some under /etc/customization, but those are a lot bigger than the mbns I ripped, not sure if they're what I replace or if I need to do something else.

I have tried with the offical rom image from Htc, and it worked out perfectly.

If anybody has tried with non official rom's, please let me know, as this would make it easier to flash our diamond.

This question might be around for some time already in XDA forums, but since I'm new to the Pixel game. I have just purchased a Pixel 6 Pro from a seller and apparently it is AT&T carrier bypassed. At least the seller has the courtesy of teaching me how to do the bypass, incl using what apps etc etc.. Now comes the real question, how can i unlock it officially / unofficially incl Paid ways? I have tried a few sites but when i tried to do the payment it always says insufficient funds but i did put in enough cash despite the currency rates. Btw, am located in Thailand, so please XDA gurus and experts, would require help on this issue.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
The only official way to have the carrier lock removed is by contacting AT&T. Most likely however they will NOT unlock it, given you are a) in Thailand and b) not the original purchaser. You won't know until you contact AT&T however.

You're already exploring unofficial options, but as you're finding out, those are hit and miss. The unofficial options I feel are your best bet despite their spotty track records, as I don't believe AT&T will deal with a gray market import like yours.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] gleesl:
Thank you so much for the advice. I have actually contacted AT&T via Twitter/X. Apparently this is what they replied though. I guess my only choice now is using those "unofficial" methods, sorry to say..

I think that the last build of matrixx it's already stable, or close to. Seems a good rom, according to feedback.

Also, crdroid has face unlock but it didn't work with my face at all, with other people it did work.

Curious to know how the face unlock is in matrixx too.
[Redmi Note 12 4G] lcparente:
Guys, I followed the step to install Alphadroid ROM; but I was not successful. So, here below are the steps that I did while in Recover Mode via OrangeFox:

.

1. Boot to TWRP or OrangeFOX pressing POWER + VOLUME UP;

2. Flash 'preflash.ZIP' before flash ROM;

3. Flash ROM build;

4. Flash *.ZIP from twrp/orangefox;

5. Reboot twrp/orangefox in Recovery Mode again;

6. Flash RO2RW DFE in caso you DO NOT HAVE Gapps installed;

7. Reboot twrp/orangefox again;

8. Flash Gapps (Recomended Using nikGapps) If needed;

9. Wipe data, metadata, dalvik, and cache;

10. 'Reboot System' and you should enjoy-it =)

.

So, after these steps (I DID NOT DO step 6, 7, and 8!!), the device does not go to Alphadroid system, yet it returns to OrangeFox.

.

I notice that all directories that I can see via OrangeFox, they changed! Then, after some research I could understand that I was in a different slot, which in my case was Slot_A (PS.: The original/primary slot is Slot_B).

.

Then, I thought in take all the necessary files from my laptop and transfer all of them to my smart internal store. But, when plugged on my laptop, Windows shows-it as a different device name, it appears in blank, and I cannot copy anything into it! So, my guess is that Windows cannot read the files because the device is in Linux file/partition mode of something alike.

.

Suming-up a bit, both Slot_A and Slot_B are like I said. I went to Fastboot mode to re-do the installation of OrangeFox via CMD using ADB commands; but, nothing has changed.

.

Do you guys have any suggestion?! =**(

During this changing ROM process I notice that some users go to 'Format Data' and spell 'yes'.

.

I did not do that 'cause I was afraid to lose OrangeFox access. I am not sure whether I can do this step without a SD Card.

.

By the way, thank you about this help and the clue about Telegram group! I will try something form there as well.
[Redmi Note 12 4G] magiko:
it is essential to run "format data" otherwise when you restart you will always find yourself in "recovery"
[Redmi Note 12 4G] lcparente:
.

Unfortunately during the process, it was not said in what moment you should "Format Data" and then spell "yes".

.

I just saw a vídeo where the guy flash Cherish ROM and he did de follwing steps:

.

1.wipe Dalvik, Cache;

2.flash "preflash.ZIP";

3.wipe Dalvick & Cache;

4.flash ROM;

5.wipe Dalvik & Cache;

6."Format Data" -> "yes";

7.Reboot System.

.

Well, now I have to find a way to make my OrangeFox recognize how the directories were before this mess that I did and then try this step.

.

When I be off my job, I will buy a SD Card and try what @Ronny Say thought me on post #2.
