[OnePlus Nord Questions & Answers] Stround:
I manged to fix my phone after a full day of failed attempts!

My situations was as follows:

An incompatible boot.img was flashed to my phone. I did not have a backup :( .

Followed by that, other images were flashed which made things even worse.

Only "fastboot" is accessible.

Booting into EDL did not work. Not sure if the OS being 11+ had an impact.

Booting into "fastbootd" was not possible (you get an error saying the image is corrupt)

How I managed to fix it:

I got the relevant ROM from this post (under the section Signed flashable zips)

If you have access to "fastbootd", skip to #5.

Tried to flash all the boot images using "FastbootEnhance"

You will encounter a plethora of errors but after this run "fastbootd" will start to work again.

Now you can boot into "fastbootd"

Again using "FastbootEnhance" flash the payload to your device.

If the tool, asks you clean up partitions, go ahead and delete the referenced partitions.

When you are in "fastbootd", the tool will resize partitions and will flash them accordingly.

Reboot et Voila!

I highly advice the usage of the FastbootEnhance tool (It made my life much easier).

Perks:

This tool can dump a payload which will give you all the img files. No need to use a standalone payload dumper.

This tool can also flash several .img files and knows automatically the target partition.

This is much faster than manually running each fastboot command.

1 How do I open URL's with Opera Browser by DEFAULT

2 I went into Total Commander and deleted the file association for URLs in attempt to make it work for Opera Browser on the Xperia.

Well, it doesn't work, and when I set it to iexplorer.exe the Xperia gives me infinite loops and freezes on me.

Can someone just give me the default association settings when they click on properties, I am sure this will fix my URL opening problem.
[XPERIA X1 General] Angelusz:
Download and install Xperiatweak, it has an option to set your default browser.
[XPERIA X1 General] poetryrocksalot:
That doesn't apply to Total Commander or File Browser....

Dude you should try it. Save a URL on a real computer, transfer it into your phone, and then open it via any file browser.

It will open in Internet Explorer.

LISTEN PEOPLE, instead of giving suggestions that will not work, can someone just please follow these steps in Total Commander and tell me what is on the screen?

Step 0: Upload a .URL file into your storage card

Step 1: Click on Program Menus

Step 2: Click on Total Commander

Step 3: Press and hold on a URL file inside your memory card

Step 4: Click on properties

Step 5: Click on the Associate tab

Step 6: Click on the Associate button

Step 7: tell me exactly what is shown on the following fields: Command, Parameter, Icon File, and Index

I thank any angel that helps me out on this.
[XPERIA X1 General] poetryrocksalot:
Someone please help me, I know one of you has total commander, can make URLs, and has windows mobile 6.1.
[XPERIA X1 General] Kevlah:
i had this problem also and have fixed most of the links to opera except for emails. the screenshots below show the associations for .html and .url which are different. i'm guessing .html is probably the one you want to copy but i have provided both just in case. i ended up using a cab as there are registry settings for others and i had problems with rss hub links. if i find the cab i'll post it but i got it from xda-devs general section i think, try a search for opera associations, opera rss or something like that.

EDIT: my email links do work, i'm sure there is something that still opens PIE but i can't remember. check the reg key HKLM> Software> microsoft> shell> rai> : DEFBROWSER

0=Opera Browser

1="\windows\OperaL.exe"
[XPERIA X1 General] poetryrocksalot:
Thank you dear sir, I'll also look into searching the words: Opera and association

I didn't know about html associations. I'll see if your solution works (soon)!
[XPERIA X1 General] poetryrocksalot:
All I get is a blank page, even thought I can still browse the internet and all, the URLs still dont open!!!!!!!!

The file I am trying to open is URL because when I save a bookmark or website url, I want to open it via Total Commander, exactly the way I open Microsoft Word Documents.

I have no idea what the heck .html files are, but anyways, your method and your registry cab does not work...

What am I doing wrong? And what exactly are .html files?
[XPERIA X1 General] poetryrocksalot:
Please help me, I find it very inconvenient to be forced to go to Opera Browser and then open links from there.

It would be much easier to click a saved link and then open via opera browser.

I used PHM Registry Editor

and

ab 0 = Opera Browser

ab 1 = "\Windows\OperaL.exe

D 2 = 1 (0X000001)

D 3 = 0 (00000000)

It still doesnt work

1. Ok...what are HTML files?

2. What the heck does it mean to open Email links? Does it mean to open a URL like "www.hotmail.com"?

3. How do I open a website link from my Windows Vista that is transferred into Windows Mobile?

I tried your advice and it doesn't work. When I open www.google.com via a .URL file... this is what I get in the address bar in opera:

file:/Storage%20Card/My%Stuff/Google.url

I want to see this in the Opera address bar:

http://www.google.com/

I am basically talking about opening bookmarks in the form as URL. because bookmarks can only be saved in URL format via Internet Explorer or Mozilla firefox on my computer, so how do I open these bookmarks when transferred?

Hello, I created this post to ask how I can revert from OS 8 to OS6.

This latest update has removed many features that it considers important and is never reported.

I would like some kind soul to inform me and more people how to revert this update.

There are a few of us in the forum who are asking to be able to recover OS6.

If anyone has a guide with the files and programs to revert to the previous OS, or is kind enough to share it with me, I would greatly appreciate it.

There are a couple of guides for other things that may be useful but apparently I and others make mistakes.

Sorry for my translation, I am Spanish and my English is not perfect.

Thank you.

Somos unos cuantos los que en el foro estamos pidiendo poder recuperar OS6.

Si alguien tiene una guía con los archivos y programas para volver al SO anterior, o tiene la amabilidad de compartirla conmigo, se lo agradecería mucho.

Hi!

Any suggestions as to what to debloat in Chinese HyperOS via ADB - safely? I don't mean just superflous Chinese bloatware apps (that's easy), but the Xiaomi apps, incl. maybe core apps (e.g., AI etc.).

Hi All,

I need your expert advice...I am debating which one to get the Fuze or the HD. The problem is I prefer the HD but because I live in Canada I will only get EDGE data speed and not 3G. Unlike others I actually prefer no keyboard and a slimmer device. I guess the compromise is the 3G...what does everyone else think because the Fuze has everything but the 3.8" screen?

Thanks.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] FrankMajid:
Hello everyone,

Long time follower, first time participating. I love T-Mobile V30 plus and its starting to fail on me after many years of serving me well. I have other phones but I like some of the older apps that work on my LG V30 and never updated past Android 9.0.These apps are mostly communication and productivity apps and the new Android above 9 don't allow them to work. I was able to recently find a Brand NEW Unlocked LG V30 US 998 64GB but unfortunately it is not updating either over the air or via LG Bridge past the stock Android 7.1.2 that came with it as apparently LG has stopped software update support for over the air and LG Bridge. As with some unlocked phones that update to T-Mobile updates once a T-Mobile sim is inserted, this hasn't happened. I know that T-Mobile is still allowing Android 9 updates on it's own LG V30 phones but not the unlocked versions even if a T-Mobile sim is inserted. How can I get my LG V30 US 998 Android 7.1.2 updated to T-Mobile Android 9 so that I can also use my apps and other T-Mobile features like WiFi calling and Band 71 from what I've been reading on here? I'd be grateful if I can get step by step instructions. Thank you all.

[Android Auto General] osmandeha:
Hello. I'm using an altbeacon device that turns on when my vehicle starts and turns off when it turns off. By using the macrodroid application on my phone, I switch my phone to airplane mode with the altbeacon device when I get in the car. Instead, my second phone in the car goes out of airplane mode and becomes active.

I set Bluetooth to remain on in airplane mode for both phones via adb.

Since the phone in the vehicle is connected to Android Auto, it stays awake all the time and can keep the airplane mode off until the beacon device is deactivated.

However, when my first phone's screen turns off, it soon stops tracking the signals of the Bluetooth beacon device and airplane mode is disabled even though I am in the car. How can I prevent this?

In a simpler way, how can I ensure that the phone continues to detect beacon signals after the screen is turned off?

This is my first post on the forum. sorry if there is any mistake
[Android Auto General] Sheist!:
Lots of BT optional items in Developer Options.
[Android Auto General] Cutprods:
I'm totally lost as to what you're trying to achieve. If you're trying to ensure Android Auto only connects to your phone in the car and not the one you carry, then why not simply switch on Mobile Hotspot and Tethering, on the 2nd phone? This is what I do when I don't want Android Auto to fire up. Alternatively why not use a 4G dongle with Sim, apologies if I'm totally missing something but AA is designed to work one way, not with a sleeper in the car.
[Android Auto General] osmandeha:
Thank you very much for your reply.

In summary: I'm trying to set up an android phone that offers more features and usability rather than a wireless android auto device like carlinkit.

Here's the detailed situation:

I have two phones, one always in the car and one on me. Since twin SIM cards are installed, both cannot access the network at the same time. (two identical sim cards)

While one is active, the other must be in airplane mode or off.

For the security of banking and crypto wallets, I do not want to use my primary phone with Android Auto. Because many features that are not allowed in Android Auto can only be used with rooted or non-Play Store applications (such as watching videos). I can do these on my phone which is in the car. Also, connecting and removing cables is not comfortable.

I first purchased carlinkit 5.0 to solve the cable issue but I'm trying to set up my old android phone instead for more features and usability. As a solution, I leave my old phone connected to the car at all times for navigation, calls and music.

What I need to set is that when I get in the car, my primary phone goes to airplane mode and my secondary phone is active. When I get out of the car, they return to their previous state.

I'm looking for a way to do this automatically instead of manually adjusting it every time I get in and out of the car.

(two phones have macrodroid pro. I already have bluetooth beacon device that turns on/off with my car. have carlinkit5.0 too)

If you have any other suggestions, I will gladly try them. Thank you again.
[Android Auto General] SOFO888:
Install Tasker on both phones and make a script with the Bluetooth beacon as entry and exit.

But leave Bluetooth on on both phones in your script. As soon as the beacon is off (you exit the car) you will run the script on your car phone.
[Android Auto General] Cutprods:
I really don't know why on earth drivers want to watch videos in cars, on screens the best and biggest of which are still smaller than a laptop; You can't or shouldn't do it while driving obviously; and I'm never waiting in a car for no-one long enough to watch a movie and if I was, it would be either engine running (not socially acceptable and illegal here) or a flat battery. You can have it though YT works when stationery and AAAD and Fermata get round the restrictions. I paid for AAAD, great app but I never flipping need it, to be honest.

Too many people miss the point of AA/Carplay, to my mind - the best of car simplified UX form and voice functionality for safe driving with all the apps you should ever need, when driving - they all look cluttered pants on non-driving mode Android.

Security, crypto and banking?? Why on earth would you need that with AA? The whole point of it is all on your personal phone, in your pocket with wireless - nothing left on, logged in to your HU. You are trying to do something for which AA was never designed - fair enough, there are no rules, if you really want to.

And, having said all that, if you really need to SOFO888's answer is probably the best avenue for you. Good luck.
[Android Auto General] osmandeha:
Thank you for taking the time to write at length. Android auto is not yet advanced enough for the vehicle's entire integrated multimedia system. It does not contain any usage scenarios for passengers, especially on long journeys that can last 7-8 hours. I would like to say; Just because something is sufficient for you does not mean that it is sufficient for every user under all circumstances. For this purpose, many companies produce and sell additional devices (such as ottocast aibox, carlinkit t box...). However, despite their relatively high prices, these devices are not more advanced than an Android phone. What I am trying to do is to perform the functions of these devices with an Android phone that is more capable in terms of system and hardware.

It is natural that security-requiring applications on the phone pose a risk by rooting the device or applications that do not meet Playstore criteria. The antivirus application does not allow them to be installed normally anyway.
[Android Auto General] osmandeha:
thank you. I'll try
