You also seem to flashed the wrong TWRP it should be the 3.7."1" may be a typo

[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Brain789:
Hello all,

I am wondering if it's only my perception or real that the charging takes longer than on LOS 17.1.

At least that's my feeling on BTV-W09.

Looking forward to read what you think or know.

Cheers!
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] l1ll3l:
Because I switch from stock nougat to 14 directly I can't say about this but while charging some times I checked the logs and there were many errors occuring the battery stats or so trying to access to logs but can't or no entry found . But today I couldn't see only 4 or 7 error messages. If I encounter it again i try to post the logs because I am waiting for sir surdu s release I didn't post it, I also deleted a view system apps that were responsible for cellular data like phone.apk telephony.apk or so. Battery consumption feel really better now.

Update: I found that if I open a popup window even keyboard this floods the logs

CompositionEngine : [Dim Layer for - Task=258#3112] Invalid device requested composition type change: SolidColor (3) --> Device (2)

Update2 : found while charging this error repeating. Maybe it's useful

[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] surdu_petru:
it does not affect our device in any way, it is just some logs from the kernel (as far as I know, our device does not use USB Type C)
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] surdu_petru:
Ok, I tried today a new build of LOS 21 and the device restart after bootanimation started !

LOS 21 was massively updated with QPR2, currently the source code of LOS 21 cannot be compiled (I had to add some future patches to compile LOS 21 successfully)

also in the logcat there are some fatal errors ( that's why the device can't successfully boot ) and I don't know exactly if they are LOS source related or if I need to update my own source for beethoven

as soon as the LOS source will be stable enought and I'll manage to fix the issues that appeared in logcat, I'll come back with a new update, unfortunately I cannot give an exact day when the next release will be out (may be after a day, a week or even a month)

Thank you for the understanding !
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] l1ll3l:
How about your new system, did you set it up ? How does the performance compare to your old one?
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] l1ll3l:
I found while looking for a custom ROM to another device this message about boot loops on qpr2

This update breaks compatibility with previous custom kernels, including 912 and older NoName versions. Attempting to flash these kernels will lead to a bootloop. This issue stems from our kernel being deprecated by Google in QPR2, requiring backports from newer kernel versions to boot.

Maybe our device has a similar circumstance
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] surdu_petru:
Thanks .... it looks good now and it's runs amazingly fast (there is a huge difference between the ssd nvme m.2 Gen 3 wich I had before and the current Gen 5, not to talk about the older i7 7820x vs i9 14900k )

the build time ( for the whole LOS 21 source code ) before upgrade it was about 1h and 15 minutes, right now I'm able to build in only 23/24 minutes.

xda has a separate section where you can share your own desktop configuration, so I posted there as well !

Yes, I guess that a kernel update is needed (I suspected this from the beginning, but I wasn't sure) - I'll carefully follow what changes other older kernels bring (like ours) to be able to run the new LOS 21 and as soon as I find the new patches I'll come back with a new update

Can I confirm , Bluetooth audio is working on the DL09? I don't need recording but I do need media and call audio.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] surdu_petru:
bluetooth media audio it's working , bt audio call not yet tested ...
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] bejam:
Oh dear, I think I have royally screwed myself.

I upgraded to Lineage 21 from 17.1 which required resizing back from 5GB to 2GB. I followed your useful guide this successfully and installed 21. All was working except bluetooth was connecting to the audio device then disconnecting. No sound! Then I read about product.img flashing after deleting and recreating the partitions - and our note that if in doubt reflash the stock firmware. I wondered if a missing product.img could impact Bluetooth (although bluetooth was working fine on 17.1 with a resixe and associated delete there).

So here is where I screwed myself.... I managed to use dload method to restore stock (BTV-DL09C100B311). All good.... went back to fastboot and the bootloader is now locked! I unlocked so long ago I have lost the unlock key. Probably not for this thread but is there anything I can do?? I tried DC-Unlocker and it wont read the phone on this firmware. Now stuck in the very last version of stock.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] surdu_petru:
Yes, DC-Unlocker it's working well on Android 7 ( EMUI 5.x ) - I already unlocked bootloader for two BTV-DL09 devices with DC Unlocker ... most likely there is a driver problem if it fails to read the device.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] bejam:
ok after many hours I managed to get DC-Locker working. I ended up downgrading to Marshmallow and I managed to get the code. Flashed bac to B311 and all working, then unlocked. The only strange error I get now in TWRP is lack of 'cust' partition.

Back to LOS 21, and I'm afraid I am having the same issue. Bluetooth pairs then disconnects and switches off. I have tried with a number of different BT audio speakers. I am also noticing very poor LTE signal compared to stock (same location).
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] surdu_petru:
yes, it seems that BT still doesn't work 100%, I have some older Sony headphones (Sony DR-BT101) and I can listen to music in them, I also have a newer generation JBL speaker (and it works correctly via BT)

as for the SIM signal, you should not worry because it is not displayed 100% correctly.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] bejam:
Ah ok, thanks good tip of the signal.. I did a speed test and it eas at least connected ! Am wondering if the BT is a codec issue. For my media device it is only showing SBC available in dev options. Bluetooth crashes and the speaker disconnects.

But if I disable media and select phone in the Bluetooth settings it remains more stable and I can receive calls (all options except 'default' are greyed out in dev codecs). Is for in car use so needs both but media more. Let me know if you want me to send any logs etc.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] surdu_petru:
yes, I remember that someone told me that in order to connect BT to the car, some patches must be added to the BT part of LOS which is not extraordinary, there is another custom ROM where BT works much better because there are several developers very good who take care of the BT part, now that I have upgraded the SSD part, I think I'll release another custom ROM besides LOS !

no, don't send me any log related to BT because I certainly won't be able to solve anything special as long as the problems are not strictly related to our device (of course there are some directly related to our device but not entirely)

if you want better functionality for BT, you should wait a bit until I release a new custom ROM
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] bejam:
Yes Bluetooth is such a pain. Just annoying that it is a must for my use case.

If you are releasing a ROM that is known to be more Bluetooth friendly , that would be great !
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] surdu_petru:
Yes, this one has the best BT compatibility ! when I'll have time I'll release a new custom ROM

I just got the opportunity to upgrade to the latest version. I did the following.

I installed the new TWRP 3.7.1

I then wiped then wiped everything except the micro SD card and Internal storage.

I then installed : lineage-21.0-20240210-RELEASE-beethoven.zip

Installed boot_w09.img as boot partition

Installed BitGapps - arm64 - 14 Core

I wiped cache/Dalvik the where indicated.

BTV-W09 was the rebooted.

The tablet started to boot to LinageOS. The blue arc with the circle moving through was displayed for a short while. The the system rebooted. It would proceed through the same order again and again. The tablet never gets to operational state.

I tried reinstalling several times in slightly different order all with the same results.

What do I have to do to get the system working correctly?

Thanks
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] l1ll3l:
Format data Partion in TWRP the rom should be on the SD card with the boot.img. all your data will be erased do a backup if desired. Than wipe Than flash the rom and proceed with the steps. Don't touch anything like vendor cust...
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Brain789:
Did you wipe/vendor and /product as well?

I think at least those are partitions that should be left untouched. Can you confirm this, @surdu_petru ?
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] surdu_petru:
LOS use only system and vendor partition apart boot & recovery .. so the rest of partitions shouldn't be touched
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] harrisc:
After the above resulted in the tablet going to a rebooting loop I tried in TWRP formatting the data". I did nothing else and version 21 is up and running.

BTW in the initial instructions on page 1 it would be useful to add the step of installing boot_w09.img for btw-w09

Is VoLTE supported on our device? I couldn't find any info but possibly too old for that feature. In the UK they are switching off 3G networks this year which will likely restrict ability to make calls without VoLTE. Of course data calls (skype etc) will still work but in remote areas tricky.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] surdu_petru:
Yes, VoLTE unfortunately it doesn't work ... I tried to fix this issue a few months ago but without success
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] bejam:
O well. At least data will still work. To be honest I'm amazed mine is still working given using it in the car , switching on and off all the time with variable temperatures. Great little device !
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] hedoras:
Hello guys, first of all thank you for your work! it's incredible !

I have a problem, it seems the stereo speaker is not working. I tried to find something about this in the option, but couldn't find anything. is there an option to activate? or is it build related?

thanks!
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] harrisc:
LineageOS 21 is a great success on my BTV-W09. Thanks

Does anyone know of equivalent for the MediaPad M5 8.4 (SHT-W09)?

Cheers
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Brain789:
It's a known build related issue and the developer, surdu_petru, is working on it.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] surdu_petru:
Yes, LOS 20/21 on MediaPad M5 will be released soon !

EDIT : The new QPR2 of LOS 21 doesn't seem to boot on my BTV-DL09 ... if I don't manage to fix the issue by next month, I'll return to LOS 20 (unfortunately )
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Brain789:
Thanks for your hard work to keep our device alive with an up to date system.

If it's not LOS 21, then LOS 20 would also be very good. Actually, I was quite happy with it already! :-)
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] surdu_petru:
Yes, right now managed to boot on the last LOS 21 !

I would have been sorry to have taken a step back to LOS 20 after all the work done...

I'll prepare for next weekend a new update promised some time ago, I'm sorry for the delay !
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] harrisc:
Thanks, all your efforts are appreciated.

Many thanks for all the hard work!!

PS: Great to read that you've just cracked the nut. :)
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] l1ll3l:
For us not knowing how it's like magic :) if it would be not rude could you tell why it wasn't booting I will probably not understand it but if it's long no need to waste your time on me. But moreover

Thank you for your incredible hard work. Stay healthy 🤧
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] surdu_petru:
yes, sure, it was because of my source, it had to be somewhat updated to be compatible with the LOS 21 QPR2 version ... unfortunately at the moment the bluetooth and the SIM do not work, I hope to fix them by next weekend to be able to offer you a new update
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] l1ll3l:
On the home screen change the apps bellow this should change the apps on the taskbar as well. You can also use the taskbar with gestures.
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] harrisc:
Thanks. I tried again with no success. The tablet locked up.

Part of the problem is that I am using Nova Launcher and it may be in conflict with the Taskbar.

I will not use the Taskbar and keep Nova Launcher .

Thanks for all the input

Need some help with a probably simple fix, but brain is not fuctioning now.

I went ahead and unlocked bootloader, installed TWRP and intalled rom and gapps, no error messages.

When it tries to boots it goes to the device has been unlocked screen and then booting now, but it just restarts and never fully boots up. It ends up at Huawei eRecovery every couple of restarts.

What did i do wrong?

Thanks!
[Huawei Mediapad M3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] harrisc:
I had the same a problem. I tried many things including formatting the data and suddenly the program booted correctly.

So, I got a car which only supports MirrorLink (Passat B8 MY2015), and the unit doesn't support Android auto.

I am wondering if there is some sort of an android auto box, which would connect to car using USB and MirrorLink interface to display content on the car screen, and would be able to connect to the phone by cable or wireless and activate its android auto which would then be on displayed on the car.

I hope I managed to explain clearly what I am looking for.

Thanks.

I can turn my device on normally. But then I don't have root.

When I try to boot into recovery, which enables root, I get into a boot loop.

I can't delete the module without getting root, I cannot get root without activating that module also.

Any suggestions?
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
Connect device to PC

Open ADB terminal

Use this command:

adb wait-for-device shell magisk --remove-modules

Let device boot. As soon as ADB connects, it will disable modules.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] xdauser1620:
reboot using safe mode and delete the module. Safe mode disable modules.

I just rebooted in safe mode, this disables magisk too, and I can't delete anything.

If i want root, then I need to reboot in recovery mode, which doesn't boot at all so I can't turn on safe mode in Recovery mode.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] Quidney:
I've already read that :/

shell gives me magisk is inaccessible or not found

Booting into safe mode, powering off, and then booting into recovery/magisk mode once again causes boot loop.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] Quidney:
I can't. Booting in Magisk mode (what i called recovery mode) doesn't work. It gets stuck in the "Samsung" splash screen, then boots to normal mode.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] xdauser1620:
You can uninstall magisk app i think just not run it. What happens if you uninstall it?

Modules will load without magisk manager? I don't think modules will load its worth a try.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
Nope, they won't.

However...

Uninstalling Magisk won't remove the modules from /data/adb

@Quidney that could be something to try, use a file explorer to go to /data/adb/modules and delete the contents. Not sure if this is possible without root
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] xdauser1620:
I would uninstall magisk and use kernelsu, apatch whatever root method and remove the modules from the folder.

Other root methood use other folder for modules so it won't load and modules can be removed.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] Quidney:
Nope not possible. I tried it before posting here, I get access denied...
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] Quidney:
I uninstalled Magisk, but I still can't boot to "Magisk Mode", it gets stuck in the "Samsung" splash screen for around 30 seconds to a minute and then reboots again to normal mode.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
Well...

The alternative is to uninstall Magisk, then install a different root manager, boot into Magisk mode, and use the root permissions to remove the folder I mentioned.

I have installed WIN 10 and ChromeOS (Dual boot) on my Lenovo M93P and was working fine. Recently the up and down arrow keys on my keyboard broke and I could not select OS on the GRub2win OS selection menu. I search the internet and the results indicate that GRub2win has no mouse support. Any suggestion on how I can get around this?

I think I can switch to a bootloader that has mouse support. But I don't know which one to pick. I don't mind booting into one OS first by setting it as the default and then running a command or a program to restart into the other. But I need some help.

Could be the YouTube API having backend compatibility issues with OneUI 6.1 or something else happening in the background.

Hello guys, so basically the thing is I have a full android smart watch named (TK6 Ultra) it's a Chinese smart watch with android 8.1 and comes with 4GB RAM so the thing is that it has a launcher which has some clock faces but sometimes I would notice (1% chance) that the launcher would load some other clock faces that I had never seen so that's why I became curious and using apk editor got inside the apk file and found out that the launcher has literally more than 30+ watch faces installed yet it load only 10 at a time so I extracted the apk of the launcher through my watch and tried to modify it and get it to install back into my watch but unfortunately that apk file is not installable either on my phone nor on the watch even the base launcher (non modified) won't install on the watch and so bcz of that I understood it's impossible to get it to work but then I got an idea since I have the whole launcher apk file maybe I can somewhat make an identical launcher with it and install it to my smart watch but Idk how I can send you guys the link of the launcher apk too if you want I rlly wanna change my clock face it's gotten so boring
