[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] lack93:
My POCO F3 was running the latest build (28.05.2024) of CrDroid custom ROM. While watching a YouTube video, the phone froze and crashed to a black screen. The power button became unresponsive.

I booted into TWRP recovery and reflashed the CrDroid ROM. The installation completed successfully without errors. However, upon rebooting, the phone got stuck on the POCO logo boot screen (not a boot loop).

I could still access TWRP. I tried flashing the Pixel OS ROM, and again, the installation went smoothly. But rebooting resulted in the same issue - stuck on the POCO boot screen. I left it overnight, and the next day, the screen was black, and the power button was unresponsive. Upon connecting the charger, I saw the Pixel OS charging animation.

Holding the power button booted the phone back to the POCO boot screen, still not reaching the OS.

Suspecting a TWRP issue, I flashed the stock ROM (V14.0.11.0.TKHEUXM) using MiFlash tool (2017.4.25.0). The flashing process was successful, but unfortunately, the phone remained stuck on the POCO boot screen.

I then successfully flashed TWRP again and attempted installing both CrDroid and Pixel OS custom ROMs, but the problem persisted. Finally, I reflashed the stock ROM again, and the phone is still stuck on the POCO boot screen.

Note: At the time of the initial crash, the device had no Google account linked; only fingerprint and lockscreen were set up.

Is the phone bricked, or is a partition corrupted? Any advice or solutions would be greatly appreciated.

[Xiaomi Mi 10T / 10T Pro Questions & Answers] lowik2:
Hey quick question on android security updates,

My Xiaomi mi 10t pro is showing last security update on 2023 03 01

When I did some research I found this

latest security update for the Xiaomi Mi 10T Pro was released on July 25, 2023, with the MIUI version 14.0.4.0.SJDMIXM for the Global variant1. Since your device is showing the last update from March 1, 2023, it appears that there is a newer update available.

My device is showing 14.0.1.0.SJDEUXM, but when I check for updates there aren't any, from what I understand Xiaomi switched off update servers for these devices, any way of updating it to a later security update manually ? But maybe without custom ROM ? I'm on stock and would rather not reinstall the whole firmware.

Hello! Anyone knows if it's possible to install Touch Flo (or cube) without flashing the device again? If it's possible, what version do you recomend?

I have the Shekhar WM 6.1 Professional (build 19209).

Thanks for all the input.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] Jadel:
Hey Champion,

I use the same ROM as you, and I have been using a version called SCLPF_1-62-FTOUCHFLO-FlashLite_setup_FINAL.CAB. There may be newer, better free versions of it available, but this one works perfectly for my needs. TouchFlo is restricted to the cube as well as opening and closing from memory. I don't think it works as Touchflo outside of that (IE in contacts) though I could be wrong. Been a while since I used it.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] Bruno Rodrigues:

[Motorola Razr 40 Ultra / Razr+ / Razr 2023] gorei23:
To be clear, it's not dailyable. Almost everything works.... except cellular. Though to be honest I didn't try that hard to fix that.

View attachment 6117095View attachment 6117098View attachment 6117100

The outer screen doesn't really work either. It just displays a clock anytime the main screen is on (and the clock won't refresh until you turn the screen off and on again. However the device does lock when folded! (The clock is upside down when open.)

View attachment 6117096

Fingerprint works, WiFi, Bluetooth, Flashlight, GPS, volume buttons, gyroscope, speakers/mic all work. Screen seems to be running at 120hz, lower than the 165hz native. I think only one of the outside cameras works but again I haven't really messed with it too much I'm not very expereinced with GSI ROMs. Performance seems to be pretty much perfect and I didn't experience any glitches in my short time playing with it.

Graphics intensive games work fine.

View attachment 6117097

Again I don't recommend using this, or flashing it if you don't know what you're doing. My Razr got a grain of sand under the screen that's making me nervous so I'm going to trade it in (picked up a OnePlus 12, great phone) while it's still working. So I thought I'd give this a shot anyhow.

You'll need:

An unlocked bootloader (congrats your warranty is now void, in some countries)

https://en-us.support.motorola.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/87215/~/what-devices-are-supported-by-the-bootloader-unlock-program?

The latest LineageOS 21 GSI build by Andy Yan, the one that ends with "arm64_bgN.img.xz" (You can grab bvN if you don't want GAPPs or bvS if you want prerooted. No option for root+GAPPS though I'm sure this would be easy enough to root manually.):

https://sourceforge.net/projects/andyyan-gsi/files/lineage-21-td/

A stock VBMETA partition image (vbmeta.img). You can extract one from any firmware file such as those the RSA Tool downloads or at this site (honestly not 100% sure it's REQUIRED but I did it):

https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/lenomola/zeekr/official/

Then just follow this guide, except for the part where it tells you to get a GSI image from Google, those usually don't work or work poorly on anything but Pixels. The GSI image I linked you has been community patched to increase compatibility.
[Motorola Razr 40 Ultra / Razr+ / Razr 2023] zpunout:

It's really hard to photograph but that distortion near the right hinge is it. Much more evident IRL, and can feel it.
[Motorola Razr 40 Ultra / Razr+ / Razr 2023] zpunout:
Looks like an extra wrinkle that shouldn't be there.
[Motorola Razr 40 Ultra / Razr+ / Razr 2023] nicksons28:
for those of you looking to try this risk free, download dsu sideloader and run it as a dsu. runs just as well and without beginners risk of bricking. cellular worked on my device just not 5g.
[Motorola Razr 40 Ultra / Razr+ / Razr 2023] Veiranx:
I imagine with a compatibility module/plugin, compatibility could be enhanced. If I recall correctly, this was done on the Xiaomi 13 before it got custom ROMs. It actually worked quite well for that device, and it seems like out-of-the-box for the Razr 40 family is better. That should make such a thing even easier, should it be needed.
[Motorola Razr 40 Ultra / Razr+ / Razr 2023] nicksons28:
Note: cellular working 100% even 5g! after messing with it a few minutes I found if you open settings the very top option find the option that enables 5g preferred toggle, and go back to carrier settings set 5g as preferred, enable mobile data and your good to go. However texts and calls seemingly do not work although mobile data does. I'll update if I find a way to fix.

Its under misc under the phh settings.

Only problems I've noticed as of now.....

--- the external display remains on always as well, until screen is turned off. Also is non-functional, only displays current time.

--- calls & texts don't work (mobile data works however)
[Motorola Razr 40 Ultra / Razr+ / Razr 2023] AyyyMOTO:
Interesting development. I was finally able to get the phone rooted and custom recovery installed (shout out to nicksons28 for the help). But I haven't used it much cuz I realized I wanted a "fresh start" with a degoogled OS to run on the Razr, so it would be brilliant if any devs could take on the challenge of finally making a workable functional Lineage build for the Razr+. At that point it would be as close to perfect as the Razr can get, modding-wise.
[Motorola Razr 40 Ultra / Razr+ / Razr 2023] nicksons28:
Tbh with you, this version is pretty much 90% the only thing is the external display, if you can part with it not working then you'd be good it's just a matter of the external display because it would have to ported into the rom manually. Well and calls and texts of course but that wouldn't be difficult I believe it has something to do with the modem partitions being incorrect however I havent had time to really take a look
[Motorola Razr 40 Ultra / Razr+ / Razr 2023] AyyyMOTO:
I mean yeah that would be kinda critical. But ofc the external display is part of what makes this phone pretty awesome. Also wouldn't be a bad idea if some of the Moto gesture controls were implemented. Might be worth getting a crowdfund going to see if others would hop on board with this idea cuz I do think it's a great device.
[Motorola Razr 40 Ultra / Razr+ / Razr 2023] nicksons28:
The thing is I am confident I could port the external display functionality from stock rom at the very least, the problem is I don't have any tools that are capable of unpacking an entire rom completely only boot and recovery images.

Hi, I have an unrooted p7p. I accidentally deleted a full message thread in Google messages. My Google one backup is over a month old. My bootloader is locked. Is there any way at all to recover these messages? Would a days recovery service be a waste of money?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Locoman_:
I don't have an answer but you likely have "Backup by Google One" on. I know it backs up sms & mms messages. The answer might be there? I suggest more Googling :)

Going forward, I'd use a 3rd party app to save your messages periodically.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] neverclever:
Hi thanks for the reply.. I mentioned my Google one backup is over a month old and it's important that I fill that gap. Thanks
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] simplepinoi177:
as i understand it, the only way to even restore data from a Google Backup (i believe this should include ONE, but I'm not certain), is during the "initial setup" after coming from the factory or a factory wipe.

so it's not usually viable as a efficient backup option as the restore function is very conditional. that's why most of us use Swift Backup or Neo Backup -- even have it set up to backup on a schedule so you wouldn't run into that problem of not having a backup more recent than a month...

I recently updated the firmware on my Android head unit (built on AC8257V chipset) to a version designed for 1280x720 screens, but my unit has a 1024x768 resolution. As a result, the right side of the screen is cut off. I tried changing the resolution/DPI using Remote ADB, but this caused the reverse camera screen to become squashed.

Could anyone provide guidance on adjusting the resolution without affecting the reverse camera display? Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

So he hot aired the SOC?

If it's solder joints were fractured it may have more extensive damage including internal traces.

Successful reworking requires an excellent skillset, experience and the proper equipment.

Even than some things can't be readily fixed.

Impossible to say if he fubar it unless you were watching him. You could examine the corpse to see if he ripped up the solder pads if the chipset is off or by removing it with heat.

Hello everyone,

I have an interesting piece of hardware. A DIW362 TV box locked by my internet-tv provider. It is fairly powerful with 4K support, thus I wish to use it as a sort of Linux computer. Problem is, I do not exactly know how to approach unlocking the device. I thought about using Armbian, yet there are no visible SD card slots, although there appear to be traces for one, the photos of the internals are attached below.

DIW362-V2 SET TOP BOX Teardown Internal Photos without Shielding Case SAGEMCOM BROADBAND SAS

Any recommendation about how I should approach this? Can I somehow potentially get it to boot from a USB or from the Ethernet port? I have access to the internals of the device if a modification of sorts were to become necessary.

Although there are photos of the chipset, I couldn't figure out what type of architecture it uses.

To be clear, the device definitely runs android, it seems to be programmed to boot into a specific app (which is also available in Play Store, which is how I figured it is android), I wish to somehow bypass that.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackhawk:
Probably about 145-160F for cpu.

However max battery temperature is 104F, under 100F is better. 108F will likely trigger a shutdown.

If the cpu is running full bore it will eventually heat the battery into its red zone and cause a throttle back or shutdown.

Running near the upper limits of both the chipset or battery can cause an unpredictable failure even with the normal safeguards in place. Without them this will likely become an issue.

That's showing the temperature of where the sensors are located. In the battery hot spots can form and the heat is not detected fast enough to prevent Li plating. Same can happen in the SOC, etc with a single or group of semiconductor junctions; they can go way over temperature before it registers.

The shutdown and throttling limits are set to a value to prevent any part of that whole system from being damage from excessive temperature with this in mind.
[Google Pixel tablet] FullMetalGlicoz:
Hi there,

I've got my Pixel tablet for a month, and it's great and works perfectly.

Last week I decided to buy a Penoval Stylus that I found online as a good stylus for the tablet, and overall the stylus works perfectly.

The only, VERY BIG, problem is that when I use the pen for drawing or in other conditions where I have to use the pen with my hand on the screen, it's almost sure that the tablet completely crashes and reboots.

This happened most of the time using drawing apps (Infinite Painter and HiPaint), but sometimes drawing with Keep and after "understanding" hot to trigger the problem, also with the System UI.

Triggering the problem with the tablet connected to Logcat, I found that it's all triggered after this error:

Abort message: 'Expected ACTION_HOVER_MOVE instead of MotionEvent'

I'm struggling to understand if it's my unit's fault, it's the stylus, or if it's a bug in the Android build of the Pixel Tablet.

I find it hard to believe it's a system bug and no one in Google ever noticed this kind of behavior.

Does someone have the same find the same problems using any stylus?
