[General Questions and Answers] blueagent004:
I have an old SD-card from my broken Ainol Novo7 from 2012, containing a rare android 2.2 game called "Sylpheed Alternative", from the famed developer of sylpheed/Lunar/grandia.

Ive been able to get the game files installed onto my samsung j1 with android 4.4, its playable but always crashes before mission completion. On newer android phones, game does not even launch.

Question:

Did android 4.4 removed compatibility with android 2 games?

Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] khusika:
I'm not sure about this, but it doesn't seem like Android 4.4 is removing app compatibility on Android 2.2 but rather the opposite. The application you mentioned may not be updated regarding the required APIs on Android 4.4.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
You cannot run an app compiled for Android 2 (API level 5) on Android 4.4 (API level 19) because of incompatibility issues. The main reasons are

1. Android apps target specific API levels: Android apps are compiled to work with a specific version of the Android operating system, defined by an API level. This API level determines the libraries and resources the app can access.

2. Significant changes between Android 2 and 4.4: Android 4.4 (KitKat), released in 2013, is a much newer version than Android 2 (Eclair), released in 2009. During this time, the Android platform went through substantial changes, introducing new features, libraries, and functionalities.

3. Missing libraries or resources: An app compiled for Android 2 relies on libraries and resources that might not be present in Android 4.4. This lack of compatibility can lead to errors or crashes when you try to run the app on the newer platform.
[General Questions and Answers] blueagent004:
thanks for the detailed explanation on this everyone.

most used android phones here are android 4.4 and above, unfortunately.

Been trying to fix my S20 Ultra that just booted into a bootloop while I was using it on vacation. I normally backup my phone nightly but couldn't do it while out of country. I'm trying not to loose all my vacation photos. I've downloaded the current firmware for SM-G988U Tmobile and I used odin to upload BL, AP, CP and CSC_Home but still doing it but not sure the flash worked, it gave me sucess and rebooted but still doing it. I read on here not to download the firmware from Sammobile website but to get from general section but I couldn't find it. Maybe I have a hardware problem. I tried downloaded older version but now I get "sw rev check fail" Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Bought after M51 as daily driver

Deeply dissapointed. Nothing special about this phone. Completely boring and completely average.

-heavy

-average battery life

-cameras a little above average

-software is ok. no glitches. but this is samsung. You have seen one then you saw them all

I am going to get rid of it.

I don't need a better smartphone than this. I am satisfied with him.
[Samsung Galaxy A55] RiD123:
I'm in South Africa, bought this as an upgrade as I was upset with my Xiaomi Redmi Note 10S being ad-ridden and feeling like a toy.

I now have the Galaxy A55 5G for a full month and am glad to say this is definitely the last Samsung I'm going with - I'm going to have to be stuck with it for the next 3 years!

- For the overpriced price there's nothing extremely special about it

- The only plus for me with the A55 is the great camera quality over over my Xiaomi but having 3 round lenses stick out at the back is ugly

- It's extremely heavy, would make a great paperweight if it needs to one day

- Charges extremely fast but the battery is not wonderful at all, I ran the same apps with no battery restrictions on my Xiaomi Redmi Note 10s and my battery lasted longer on that phone

- The Galaxy A55 has not overheated so far

- It seems to be putting apps to sleep when i have specified they should stay awake

- The fingerprint reader is built into the screen, it's annoying as it is a mission to unlock, 80% of the time it refuses a finger

- Only allows 3 fingerprints to be stored

- Sound quality on the speaker is great though over any other device I've had previously.

- I don't know if this is how samsung is, but I have not seen or found a feature yet to turn off data/internet per-app ? the only one I found turns off data/internet for all apps at the same time.

It is a good phone, has no software issues as far as I can see.

Whether you want to buy it, is all up to your tastes and preferences.

Would I recommend it? nope...I'd recommend rather going with some cheaper alternative.
[Samsung Galaxy A55] MaxLub:
The battery is great for me. In the Settings, you should set that the applications do not run in the background, except for some, and that's it. The battery compared to the battery of the Samsung Galaxy S 10 is much, much better.

I reconfigured the fingerprints. Twice the thumb of the right hand and once the index finger of the left hand. It mostly works for me now. It rarely fails except when my hands are sweaty and after washing my hands even though I have wiped my hands.

Thanks for all the effort, I've been meaning to do something like this myself. It'd be great if we could come up with some sort of standard/script/tool/program to automate it all so new ROMS could be easily tested.

Anyways, very useful and appreciated. A few questions, what network are you on, what radio do you use, and how did you gauge the power drain? Thanks again. Good work.

Have you by any chance also measured wifi power consumption?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] swobnair:
New Results including WIFI/BLUETOOTH and PUSH EMAIL

Please find attached my new power consumption results.

The Radio ROM and OS ROM used are documented within the file itself.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] swobnair:
Standard Script Tools

Sorry no Standard script tools were used. I have to wait 5 to 15 minutes per test according to what I need to test using a program called acbPowermeter.

It is quite a difficult task, but I do not think that the ROMS etc... will do much difference.

The main difference is that you would be aware that things like PUSH EMAIL and WIFI will drain the power almost 10 times faster, so you avoid having these on all the time and put an OS or apps on your mobile to turn these on / off when you really need them.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] wallabyman:
Thank you very much, I found your results helpful and interesting.

Tey encourage me to switch from WiFi to Blootooth when in the office. Seems to be far more efficient.

YouTube consumption

YouTube over HSDPA on our faithful Hermes 100 is a great way to keep the kids quite at the back of your car, but beware it consumes at least 375ma (see attached PDF) and will drain the battery in approx 3 hours.

I'm looking into purchasing an s24(specifically the sm-s9210 so I can root it). Is it possible for it to the bands to be unlocked? If so does anyone know any carriers that would accept it on to their network(I'm in the US).
[Samsung Galaxy S24] benhidalgo:
S9210 is for Asia (mainly China, Hong Kong, Taiwan). I'm not sure who sells them in US. But you can order one from Amazon or any other shopping sources.

SM-S921U is the US version, which is sold through carriers like AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile. It features Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, which is not available in the international version.

SM-S921U1 is the unlocked US version, which is not tied to any specific carrier. It also features Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor.

[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] tnyynt:
Hey there!

User projection and I managed to find a working solution for the HTC Touch HD's video playback problem. Lack of video acceleration lead me to finding a perfect solution for playing back high quality videos that would take advantage of the high resolution on that device.

When I ended up my seek with a conclusion on video playback, projection came up with an idea to create a video converter that would take advantage of Touch HD's graphic acceleration (which exists) and put it to work for playing back real crystal clear 800x480 videos.

So far it is working as it should (with a few bumbs though, but working) and since X1 and Touch HD are similar as per hardware, I asked a friend to test a video for me on his X1.

Results are fabulous.

Here's the app.

I don't need any specific android version, I just want to try another firmware, because lately I often encounter screen flickering problem and I just want to try to reflash another firmware in case this is issue of the build. I checked my unit, all the wires etc. everything just looks fine, and that flickering is unpredictable, it could be at -10, +10, +30 outside, no matter when. And the other day, or just after couple of minutes/hours it starts working as it should again. So i just want to try another version if there is anything.
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] drtweak:
Hi Everyone,

TL;DR move to second paragraph.

So Phone bene acting up, haven't really updated it in over a year as it wouldn't take any updates, so decided today to start fresh. I actually just moved to Specturm mobile and actually did get a new Pixel 8 (Had to in order to activate SIM and figure it will be a backup for me or my wife who did get a pixel 8 and is using it). To the Pixel 8 is a fully working clone pretty much (The pixel data transfer utility much better than OOS). So I spent allll day using MSM (I always forget how to use it and spend an hour ripping my hair out) then all the updates. Went to 13 before I finally rooted. Then got stuck on the F67 Update (until i found the full and not incremental version of that and then it updated) and went alll the way to the currently release for 14 with zero issues. Then I finally transferred data etc.

So here I am on latest OOS14, and decided "Hey lets get rid of the boot loader message". I did it on 13 actually then reverted going to 14. Well i couldn't find anything saying I couldn't so I did, now boot loop. Not sure if anyone has a a ABL image? The two packages i have for OOS14 don't work with the unpacker so can't extract anything from there. I could try going back to 13.1? Also since I am on 14 now of course no customer recoveries work (Didn't bother installing. Not really worried about having a custom recovery anymore) but not sure if that is only for the user data or the whole storage system as I can see everyone else in OF V20. this was the command ran so of course doesn't matter what slot I use.

fastboot flash --slot=all abl KB200X_abl.img

Any help or guidance would be nice. If i got to start over, Well then I got to start over. Just going to toss my sim card back in the Pixel for the time being.

[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] drtweak:
Thanks Bill. Yea familiar with most of the boot/reboot combos and tired them all. Still nothing. Tried charging it (It was around 50% though) and nothing when plugging it in. Need one of those USB C Volt/Amp checkers.

Debating about taking back off and disconnecting batteries. Might wait till tomorrow to do that though. Look slike with some heat and a utility knife it can come off pretty easy. i also have replacement adhesive as well. Feel like maybe it is stuck in some kind of weird state. I do IT for a living and started with the Droid X back in 2010 back when you could remove the battery. Miss those days. Like hardware still acts up. Sometimes its not replacing the battery but just needing to remove all power to reset a phone or PC. Hope that fixes it. Now i'm glad i got the Pixel 8 and not the Moto G5 or something (again Specturm wouldn't activate a sim with the oneplus). Stuck using the pixel which all in all isn't bad. I still like the 3 year old 8t way better. Better life on this new Pixel 8 is the same as my 3 year old 8t sadly. I hoped to have used the 8t for another few years honestly an then get a new OnePlus.

If i do get it up and running. IDK if i will bother with root. Not sure how much you know about Titanium backup, but the backups will not restore any app data from the backups sadly. On the Pixel I was surprised at how much app data it transferred. it was almost all of it during the process but when I had to 8t back up and did it the other way around no app data was transferred.

But yea I'll keep ya updated.
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] drtweak:
IT LIVEEESSSS!!!

I probably could have waited till battery died, but couldn't wait. Couldn't get it to do anything to popped the back off (Wasn't that hard, but the back glass is already broken so there were a few new cracks now getting it open, disconnected the battery while at work, and then it detected it once i disconnected the battery. Didn't have proper drivers at my office PC so came home, got it on, loaded MSM, factory reset it and its back baby. I think I'll just go to 13.1 and stop there. Using 14 on the pixel and I'm not a fan. I mean I'm not a fan of the Pixel either. no joke I hate this phone haha. SO many things i love about my 8t. Last phone I loved this much was the Motorola Turbo, and then my first android phone the Droid X. I miss the days of dirty flashing, no wiping of data to root, etc.

Thanks for responding tho bill. I'm going to wait to put the back on until i'm all where I want to be haha

As far as i remember you can't get rid of yellow "bootloader unlocked" message on OOS14.
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] drtweak:
Yea I know that now lol it was just weird the phone got locked up to the point i had to crack it open and disconnect the battery. I had tired OOS14 and I didnt like it so I will just stick with 13.1 thr last update (583) for now. I got my phone back so im good.
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] Rootk1t:
As i read from user replies, OOS14 is not polished on 8T and still has unresolved issues, where OOS13.1 is obviously older, but in a very good/polished state.

So it's quite reasonable to stick to OOS13.1 until all bugs are fixed on OOS14 by OnePlus (if they plan to fix them at all).
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] drtweak:
Yea I test drove 14 for a day. yea no i started all over and stopped at the last update for 13.1. I just hate that they never released a recovery for the tool for 12 and 13. Got to go all the way back to 11, and update, update, update haha
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] BillGoss:
There are custom recoveries for OOS 12 and 13. See section A.2 in https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-root-and-keeping-root-options.4387977/ for links.

The problem I have at the moment is that it is impossible to find my device in bootloader mode under either Windows or Linux.

I've tried different versions of fastboot (and the other platform tools) to make sure it's not just the version I'm using that's causing the problem (35.0.1, 33.0.3).

I boot into bootloader/fastbootd using ADB so no issue there, drivers should be installed, and I tried detecting fastboot in bootloader mode using multiple devices (like my Linux laptop and my Windows pc).

I'll start from the top, I broke my phone's screen so I had it replaced by HTC. I shipped the phone (without a battery) to HTC like they wanted and got a new phone back. I installed "HD_III_BlackStone WWE" rom, and it worked fine for about 4 days or so. but eventually it wouldn't charge, I figured my battery was finally shot so I bought a new one, it worked fine for awhile but now it won't charge at all.

my computer doesn't even recognize my tilt, never says anything is connected. it does have the checkbox unchecked for computer charging, so that should be fine.

and I've tried 2 different computers with 3 different cables, as well as my car charger and 2 wall chargers =/

I've searched around but I haven't found any information regarding this, I have a feeling my car charger might've some how killed my USB port on my phone.

can anyone point me in the right direction on this? I am pretty tech savvy but I just don't know where to start troubleshooting this any deeper.

any help will be greatly appreciated, i'll be checking this frequently.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Flying Kiwi:
Some options

Maybe this stickied WARNING: Active Brodit Carkit thread in the Kaiser accessories forum may be of some assistance. What car charger kit have you got? Of course your replacement Kaiser should have a warranty as long as it has an official configuration. Without a working USB port you'll have difficulty restoring the original configuration as not all required steps can be done with the microSD card method - one of the risks with running custimised ROMs on devices still under warranty. If you have that particular car charger then maybe you can get some comeback from that company and a cheap Kaiser battery charging cradle will keep you going in the mean time - it just means swapping batteries to charge them. You can still use bluetooth for activesync (buying a dongle for the PC if reqd).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] greggsauce:
Thank you so much for the reply... I'll have to do the MicroSD way then, thankfully i have one finally.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] greggsauce:
what kind of cradle will charge just the battery?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Flying Kiwi:
Clarification

My point about that is you WONT be able to fully restore everything via the microSD card method - the SPL reversion has to be done using the USB connection.

Well whatever version you are using, if you check your port for physical damage as maxblaster linked to and thats all clear then hopefully your car kit supplier will be some help. At least the methods I suggested (battery charge cradle and bluetooth activesync) are cheap workarounds that can keep you going in the mean time. Good luck:cool:
