Bugs :

1. Due to high dpi, pixel launcher is buggy in every tablet, so u will see double gesture navigation, its bcz of taskbar, and u cant disable it, it best solution is change to mobile ui by adjusting the dispay dpi from display setting, set it at 590.

2. There are animation lags bcz of EvoX ROM just changing their base, overall ROM is fast, and mostly everything works

[Samsung Galaxy Watch 6] Melete:
Hello,

I just received my galaxy watch7 but I don't have Google services on my phone.

I use a custom rom, LineageOS with Microg, a Google service replacement suite. Turns out it doesn't work, it won't continue setting up the watch, it just gets stuck.

Is there a way to force the system? I mean something like an Xposed module or a Magisk addon?

[POCO M3 Questions & Answers] grg7:
I use my phone tethered to pc very much (for internet). so it unavoidably charges the phone to always 100% which is very detrimental to the battery. i recently had to replace the battery.

I saw the xiaomi's "optimized charging" AKA stop charging at 80% in the miui 14 update and decided to update and there are no option like they said. WTF! they said it is on any xiaomi device!

turns out even people with much newer and upper tier phones don't have this option. it is only for the super high end phones?!! big F U to xiaomi!

even samsung has this option on most phones now! with my poco m3 having deadboot issue recently and now this , I WILL NEVER BUY XIAOMI / POCO again!

is there any other way to stop charging at 80? (no i don't want accubattery / anyother alarm type apps)

It accepted the phone.and it is working'srarting recovery procedure.' I don't know what is going on.please help.I will send relative screen shot or video.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] drnightshadow:
You can try fastboot ROM and using bat file. Maybe it will boot.. I never used mi flash tools ever.. and i think people are using mi flash tool, I don't know about this v2 tool. Just try a pure fastboot procedure with fastboot ROM.

[Moto Z2 Play  Questions & Answers] aes7:
Hello everyone,

I have Motorola z2 play from china gifted to me by my brother

View attachment 6125211

So the notification doesn't show for most apps even if someone on Whatsapp or Instagram called me ,

I have seen someone posted a solution xda forums (although not from my exact same smartphone) ,

He said to disable the security app by root or for non rooted go in the app and allow auto start for the apps you want and disable battery optimization for them aswell ,

I've done that and still nothing ,

I've done the simple stuff like allowing notifications for the apps and also installed an app called missed notifications reminder still nothing,

At this point i want to install a new rom altogether ,

But i stopped because i changed the rom before ( i tried official android pie but returned to the original rom because the phone SIM modem stopped working) ,

I want to try lineageos but I'm afraid that the SIM modem will stop working ,

I do understand that this might be a special case of repair but please help me since i have no other options at the moment ( my country is on the news everyday , being bombed)
[Poco F5 Pro / Redmi K60 (China)] Pro-Fessional:
I am planning to root my Poco F5 Pro. This is my first time rooting a phone. I already know the procedure of rooting one but I would like to know more about it.

My questions are:

- Does rooting my phone can downgrade the widevine certifcation? Poco F5 Pro have L1

- A custom recovery is really needed to flash magisk? If so, what is the best to use that is compatible for the phone

For those who already rooted the phone, is there any issues have you encountered that I should be aware of before rooting?

I appreciate for those who can answer
[Poco F5 Pro / Redmi K60 (China)] NOSS8:

Nope

- A custom recovery is really needed to flash magisk? If so, what is the best to use that is compatible for the phone

Nope,but it's easier with TWRP.

📌 [Shared] OFFICIAL TWRP by skkk

POCO F5 Pro/ Redmi K60 (mondrian) A13/A14 REC VERSION Install with TWRP or fastboot*** flash recovery_ab twrp.img(cmd) or ./flash recovery_ab twrp.img(Power Shell) ***After flash used this command: ./fastboot reboot recovery (Power Shell)...

xdaforums.com

For those who already rooted the phone, is there any issues have you encountered that I should be aware of before rooting?

You may not receive updates and will have to install them manually.

You will also need to use Magisk modules for the device to be certified by Google.

Why root?
[General Topics] Hendrix7:
Some smartphones have cornered rear cameras, some have centered rear cameras.

photo credit: Android Central
​

History​

While iPhones always had cornered rear cameras, Samsung implemented centered rear cameras for around a decade (2011 - 2019). With the Note 10, released in late 2019, they switched back to cornered rear cameras.

HTC and LG (no longer producing phones) only had centered rear cameras. Sony switched inbetween. While the Xperia S, P, and V had a centered rear camera, the Z series had a cornered rear camera for many years.

My preference​

I clearly prefer cornered cameras. Since the lenses are at a higher position while holding the phone horizontally, there is more space to place the fingers of the left hand without covering the lenses, so a corner camera smartphone can be held more comfortably.

Corner cameras are also better for macro shots since you can get closer to the ground by holding the phone horizontally upside down.

Now I'd be curious to hear your opinion.

[G1 General] jmejiaa:
Hi all,

I have the original non rooted RC30, I was wondering if the DEV phone is rooted out of the box. I would like to go back to RC29, then convert my phone into a DEV phone. I am searching in the meantime but I was wondering if anyone could quickly answer this for me. I basicly want to know, will it be rooted? Would it be unlocked.

I'm guessing the phone will be exactly like a DEV phone after that(except the back cover).

Thanks
[G1 General] :
actually no, applying the dev update to your g1 does not make it a dev phone. The dev phone is sim unlocked and rooted (hence the name - Developer)
[G1 General] jashsu:
It will have root. However it will still be sim locked and use the G1 SPL. You'll have to take other actions to change those other two aspects.
[G1 General] jmejiaa:
Thank you for the responses. I still need to do more homework(I'm at work) but I guess this answers my question. Since both phones are the same hardware wise then after making those changes it should be a DEV phone?

The reason I'm asking is because of the updates, as Android grows, from what I have read T-mobile will not necesarilly push the updates. With a DEV phone I'm guessing I would be able to take full advantage of these updates?

I am a developer but probably won't be doing much with Android so basically I just want to be able to always be using Android in its full glory.

My last question would be, how do these DEV phones get official Google updates if they are not on T-mobile?

ok, I lied, one more. Will the Android updates always support the G1? or will it be up to T-mobile? I don't mean fave fives and all the other stuff, i mean the G12 drivers and making sure android plays nice with the G1.
[G1 General] :
the dev phones will not get ota (pushed) updates. yes they are both basically the same hardware, and if you put the dev boot loader and the adp software you will in essence have a adp1.

Android updates will be android updates - made to work on emulator and devices, if there is an android phone that is branded ie the g1 t-mobile will need to test first and add their software components before the ota is pushed to people on t-mobile network with G1s.
[OnePlus Nord N100 Questions & Answers] Moz3:
Hi, I'm new on this website so I'm sorry if I'm doing something wrong.

I have a old phone from a deceased family member (Oneplus Nord N100) whose pin I can't remember to unlock it and i would like at least to recover photo and data in it. The phone has not a custom recovery and it is not rooted. I have tried everything, software like Dr.Phone or using ADB but the main problem is that the USB debugging is not activated so it doesn't let me do anything. I am not aware that of the android version but i could screenshot the lock screen i suppose if someone could figure that out. I have tried bruteforcing by hand but im at 3820 seconds between attempts and it will probably not work in the long run.

I would be really happy if someone could at least help me to recover the data, or even more so to unlock the phone. Thanks

[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geezunless:
Hello,

I have kind of bricked my Nexus 5X, I've reformatted data and my volume down button doesn't work so I can't enter in fastboot mode for flash recovery.

The only mode I can reach is "download mode" when I plugin Nexus 5X to my PC and press power + volume up button.

Nexus 5X is reconized by Windows as :

OK Ports LGE Mobile USB Serial Port (COM6) USB\VID_1004...

OK Modem LGE Mobile USB Modem USB\VID_1004...

nothing with ADB and fastboot.

Question is: there is a way to go to fastboot mode from download mode ?

You can cut off the tail with the serial number if you like, but include VID, PID, MI.

[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] noohhw:
Device Details:

Device : Mi11x

Kernel Version: 4.19.157.perf

OS: MIUI CN (flashed 3-4 different versions using fastboot)

I've been encountering persistent modem subsystem failures on my phone, leading to frequent RAM dumps and occasional automatic reboots due to kernel panic errors. Recently, my IMEI number has also gone blank. Despite flashing different MIUI versions using fastboot, the issue persists.

Below are the specific failure messages from the RAM dump log file:

1. Modem Subsystem Failure Reason:ssr:AP:mhi_core.c:3931:--------------MHI system error

2. modem subsystem failure reason: ssr:MP:lte_LL1_rflm_drivers.c:602:RFLM :: WBEE read Failed! rxlmhandle

3. another is related to Qlink(0) detected (didn't have full log file)

I am seeking help from anyone who has experienced similar issues or has expertise in handling modem subsystem failures, particularly related to LTE drivers on MIUI. (@jcadduono tagging you becuase i read your past threads) Is that related to hardware or efs partition. Any insights, troubleshooting steps, or solutions would be greatly appreciated.

[Google Pixel 5a] holypaulie:
Is it worth to self replace cracked original screen for $122 on my Pixel 5a? Or should I consider get new phone. If yes any recommendation?
[Google Pixel 5a] blackhawk:
You could get a used one for slightly more.

The organic leds in the display are destroyed rapidly if exposed to any water including in the air ie humidity.

If you do replace it make sure the mobo wasn't damaged and is fully functional.

Your call; unless you upgrade to a newer phone it's going to be a pain to a greater or lesser extent.

but i cant see anything
[XPERIA X1 General] achmed20:
just wait. the windows directory is full of files (who the feck designed such a crap?). it takes ****load of time till u can see anything there. especialy when u have installed touchflo3d
[XPERIA X1 General] nawfalah:
i cant see the folder on my pc of windows on my x1

i dont have tf3d installed either
[XPERIA X1 General] axjiii:
Use activesync.

Settings -> Connections -tab -> USB to pc -> and pick ActiveSync
[XPERIA X1 General] nawfalah:
still not working... tried both those things
[XPERIA X1 General] scar45:
I believe that this is by design. Microsoft probably doesn't want everyone using ActiveSync to be able to muck around in the \Windows folder, so while you're connected to your PC via ActiveSync, Windows Explorer will ALWAYS hide the phone's \Windows folder.

You could just use Total Commander on the phone itself, and this will give you access to the \Windows dir with no problem. I usually just copy stuff to the \My Documents or \Storage Card folder while it's connected to my PC, then disconnect, open up Total Commander on the phone, and copy the files to \Windows.

Hope that helps!
[XPERIA X1 General] dhiru:
u need change view folder opiton and allow viewing system files.
[XPERIA X1 General] dogans:
Yes.

Go to folder options and allow viewing system/hidden files.

Then, go to My computer > Mobile Device > My Windows Mobile Device (or whatever it's called :P) and Windows should be there :)
[General Questions and Answers] BigLisy:
Hello,

I own a Realme 11 Pro+ running latest Android 14 / RUI 5. For quite a while now, it's as if the list of quick freeze apps is set and if I add or remove apps to it, they won't stick and reset back to the original list (from god knows when) it was set to, at every reboot.

For example as per screenshot, I untick the app Hue, so that it doesn't force stop itself every time I close it, and that works as intended, until I restart my phone and Hue is again set to Quick Freeze on its own.

Is this a known issue? Any solution that is not factory resetting the phone?
[General Questions and Answers] jauharikevin7:
hi, do you find any solution to this? i'm experiencing the same thing with GT6
[General Questions and Answers] marcussacana:
Devices such as Samsung and Xiaomi have a Game Booster feature. I am looking for a way to enable these tools to automatically recognize my app as a game. At present, I know of only two metadata entries that I can include in my app's manifest to achieve this, they are:

<application ... ... android:isGame="true" android:appCategory="game">

I'm seeking information on the methods, if any, that apps use to automatically recognize a game across various phone models.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
IMO there isn't a universally accepted method for apps to automatically recognize every game across different phone models.

FYI:

Game Booster apps might have a list of known game package names and check if the running app matches any on the list. This can be effective for popular games but might not work for lesser-known titles.

Game Booster apps might look for activities that are commonly associated with games, such as displaying full-screen graphics or high touch input rates.

Game Booster apps might leverage accessibility services to analyze on-screen content and running processes.

Game Booster apps might use machine learning models trained on data sets of known games. This allows for identifying games based on various factors like screen elements, touch patterns, and resource usage.

[Moto X Q&A] blackhawk:
Power it down NOW.

Pull the rear cover and disconnect the battery asap!!!

Use low pressure clean, dry compressed air to blow out any visible water, gently. Lay on it's side in a hot (80-110F) dry room with a strong fan on it for 2-3 days.

It must be completely dry before connecting the battery. Including the ribbon connector contacts and underneath the BGA chipsets.

If it was salt or brine water, it's already dead.

Fresh water; fate uncertain but not promising because you didn't power it off immediately and pull the battery. Even if you get it working 100% it may fail weeks or months latter. If all the water is removed and it caused no corrosion damage, it will be ok. That's a lot of if's...
[Moto X Q&A] minecraftplayer2937:
I think there's a misunderstanding. This water damage stuff happened 2 years ago, and I don't really care if it's dead.
