[Xiaomi 13 Ultra] jaimehd:
Hi guys, I have been using 13 Ultra for a while now. Before this 13 Ultra, I'd been using iPhone and Samsung (S8-S9-S21Ultra), all stock. I had a hard time finding which ROMs support 13 Ultra, because many popular ROMs (e.g., LineageOS, crDroid, hentaiOS) don't support this device, including Paranoid AOSPA until recently. The normal Mi 13/13 Pro, Redmi Note series, or K- series are far more supported. So, I'm sharing my personal comparisons for the custom ROMs that I have used so far.

My preferences are:

Signed ROMs, able to use Banking/Wallet/GGPay apps

Popular, big community, bugs fixed quickly

Some customizations and builtin tweaks are plus points

Below is a table that quickly summarizes available options:

​

Based	Signed	Debloated + Remove Tracking	Community/Dev responsiveness/Update Frequency	Additional
Stock	MIUI	Yes	No	-	Lots of bloatware
Xiaomi.EU	MIUI	Yes	Yes	Good	-
HyperTN	MIUI China	Yes	Partial	Average	Unlimited GGPhotos
EliteRom (Lite)	MIUI China/Global	Yes	Yes	Great	Unlimited GGPhotos
AOSPA (Paranoid)	AOSP	Yes	Yes	Average/Good

Pixel-like​

Here are the details:

Stock ROM (China): china based, bloatware + tracking, well optimized because built from source. There are some restrictions that need to turn off "System optimization". Gapps partial compatible, e.g. Maps don't have compass (don't show pointing direction)

Xiaomi.EU: more or less debloated stock ROM + Gapps package. Automated build bots, not device-specific optimized. If you can debloat/remove tracking yourself, not that worth unlocking bootloader because it breaks device integrity.

HyperTN: China MIUI-based, partially debloated. Low update frequency, mostly Vietnamese-based community. Not optimized, I personally encountered a bit of touch delay. Unlimited ggphotos.

EliteROM (lite version is free): overall better than the above HyperTN. Currently only China-based, weekly dev for 13 Ultra, update every 2 weeks. Debloat + remove tracking, smooth, unlimited ggphotos, lots of customizations, can change Theme store region. Best MIUI-based custom ROM in my opinion. The paid versions (NG/Gaming) are not worth it in my opinion, unless you want to support the developer.

AOSPA Paranoid: AOSPA is.. well, AOSPA. Clean UI/UX. If you like something simple (Pixel-like) with more customizations, this is the best for you. I compare it with my mate's Pixel 8 Pro, this ROM has more customization than the real Pixel. There are the official and unofficial versions (there are two threads for them). The official version seems to have fewer minor bugs, update frequency is good so far, but the maintainer developer doesn't seem to be very responsive. Unofficial has unlimited ggphotos. Overall, this has some minor bugs compared to MIUI-based ROM, hope they fix in more updates to come.

All the details are my opinions after using them. Currently I'm using Paranoid. You can share your opinion and correct me if I'm wrong.

Thank you. I updated the hyperlink to the website instead of telegram channel.
[Xiaomi 13 Ultra] NOSS8:
Why no link to stock roms and Xiaomi EU rom?

And Xiaomi EU ROM is based on CN firmware for this device.

For Rom stocks for Europe, it is EEA.
[Xiaomi 13 Ultra] jaimehd:
Thought it's too popular and everyone knows already. Updated.

Ah I see. I'm talking about the China model where the stock ROM is for China region. For EEA, Global, Taiwan, I think they're similar to Xiaomi.EU
[Xiaomi 13 Ultra] NOSS8:
Elite rom is based on Xiaomi Eu rom

And this is false:

Xiaomi.EU/Taiwan/Global MIUI

Since the first line of the table concerns stock roms, this one refers to Xiaomi Eu rom (custom rom).
[Xiaomi 13 Ultra] jaimehd:
Yeah. You're correct. But for me, Taiwan/Global/EEA/etc are only half-stock ROM. We need to unlock bootloader to install them. And there's another thread saying that if you re-lock the bootloader with Global ROM, the device will be hard-bricked.
[Xiaomi 13 Ultra] NOSS8:
But all the roms you mention require unlocking the bootloader.

Indeed, you must not lock the bootloader with a stock ROM other than Cn with a CN device, otherwise it's a brick.

The alternative is to root and use Magisk modules.

BTW:

I forgot:

Xiaomi.EU/HyperTN/EliteRom are HyperOS not Miui.
[Xiaomi 13 Ultra] jaimehd:
That's why I did put Global/EEA/EU/Taiwan together with Xiaomi.EU but not Stock. Because the features are similar, and bootloader unlocking is required.

Rooting is too risky and vulnerable for non-tech-savvy people. The effort needed to maintain a device against bootloader unlock detection and PIF is high.

LOL, you're talking like HyperOS is a whole new OS. It's more or less MIUI with newer android version and new theme. Those ROMs are also available in MIUI.
[Xiaomi 13 Ultra] NOSS8:
MIUI is over, no more updates, only to HyperOS.
[Xiaomi 13 Ultra] Realizeyes:
You can also try greeshan custom ROM.

Which one was the best for battery in your opinion? I feel like every hyperos I've tried it gives less sot compared to miui14.
[Xiaomi 13 Ultra] crazymika:
Thanks for your sharing, do you feel the less optimization for modified hyperos rom like eu or elite comparing with stock rom?

Some developer said stock is better than those modified, thinking change to stock and modified by kernel su modules
[Xiaomi 13 Ultra] jaimehd:
Honestly Idk. I just know the battery can last a full day, from morning to evening. However, stock ROM will likely give the best battery time (especially after debloating). AOSPA battery is good but is likely not as good as stock.

It's a fact. Stock ROM is built from source and is well optimized, while the MIUI-based modified ROMs are not. AOSPA is built from source but not as well optimized as stock for each specific device.

If rooting is not a problem with you, I think that's a good idea.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JanMacicka:
Hello,

today, when I woke up, I looked at my phone and I was shocked. The only thing I was able to see was LG splash screen.

Okay, enough introduction, now some facts. I have been using this phone (LG LM-X525) for at least 4 years and over that time my storage has got almost full (64 GB). I periodically remove some unneccessary files but I think now it has reached its limit. Yesterday was the storage almost full but the phone could function normally. But I think that during night my storage became completely full and therefore the phone cannot boot. To be exact, it boots but then it is stuck on LG splash screen. I can enter factory reset menu but hard reset is definitely not a thing, since I have there important (unfortunately not backed-up) data and also 2FA tokens which I could not back-up and need for my work etc.

The phone has USB debugging enabled, so maybe that could help. I tried connecting it to ADB but it could not recognize my device. But Windows showed some signs of my phone being connected but was not able to communicate (obviously because of the phone not completely booted up).

I think the best idea is to somehow remove my files (move them to computer, for instance) to free up the storage and hopefully it may boot normally.

I would really appreciate any help with this issue and I hope the data will be recoverable (and in the best case my phone normally usable :))

Thanks a lot.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DretoTech23:
You can try to use LG bridge application on your laptop/desktop if u have one.

Next, Open the application and go to the software update tab

Now, connect your phone to your desktop using a usb cable.

Next click on update error recovery at the bottom right.

Click yes and allow if shown on screen

Next,wait………..

Finally the system should boot

However, there is 20% chance of data getting wiped
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JanMacicka:
Thanks. Are there any alternatives where would the risk of data getting wiped be lower? I am deciding whether I should try using LG Bridge.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DretoTech23:
There’s another application called Tenoshare reiboot android this might detect your device and this doesn’t wipe data
[Xiaomi Poco F6 / Redmi Turbo 3] Superbia_:
Is it worth it? I love my X3 Pro, it's still in good condition but I kinda want to upgrade to an AMOLED screen. Chose the F6 over the X6 pro because it has higher chances of getting custom roms but I haven't seen any. When can we expect them? Thanks.
[Xiaomi Poco F6 / Redmi Turbo 3] iPusak Gaoq™:
I'm using F6 now (upgrading from X3 Pro) and yes it is worth it... didn't really cared about custom rom as i haven't used any custom rom for over 5 years now...
[Xiaomi Poco F6 / Redmi Turbo 3] abelkov:
Coming from Poco X3 pro I think it's a reasonable upgrade. Have just bought F6v2 days ago and am pretty pleased.

My X3 Pro is still running strong and probably will keep it for a second phone.
[Xiaomi Poco F6 / Redmi Turbo 3] Superbia_:
Already ordered mine. Hoping we get custom roms soon. 🙏
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 5] Alex161rnd:
Please tell me how I can change the region on the watch R920 R920XUU1AWD6(CSC R920OXM1AWD6). I tried to do it through *#272* but nothing happens. I also tried to change the region using ADB by replacing the mps_code.dat file, but this method did not work due to the fact that the FW version of my watch was released after March 2023 and this method has already been fixed. I do not know how else to do this?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OM karsli:
after 30 hours of searching I will try to tell you what I have found maybe I can help someone else

------------------

if I understood right

the file called wificond in

/system/bin/wificond

seems like it content so many files between them one called

server.cpp

server.cpp - platform/system/connectivity/wificond - Git at Google

in this file "server.cpp"

you can find these lines :

android::binder::Status Server::notifyCountryCodeChanged() {

LOG(INFO) << "Receive notifyCountryCodeChanged";

handleCountryCodeChanged();

return Status::ok();

}

if I understood right .. this is what detect which country my sim card work in and change bassband or somthing

------

what do I need ?

I need some why to unzip wificond

or somehow edit this file "server.cpp" to remove these lines
[General Accessories] adhoc125:
I think the iPhone handsfree microphone is very compact and is just in the right position. There is also a brand of quality handsfree/earphones called AIAIAI Swirl which uses the similar iPhone type 3.5mm plug where there are 3 slits instead of the normal 2. I am wondering if anyone knows whether this 3.5mm plug can be used for Pocket PC phones through a USB-to-3.5mm adaptor. If it is possible, I think it will open the Pocket PC to a vast variety of quality, stylish and compact handsfree headsets (think Etymotic Research and Shure).
[Samsung Galaxy A55] FunThomas76:
Hi,

i had an S10e with it it worked perfect for long time, now i switched to A55 but the samsung calender does not show birthdays :-(

the steps i made till now:

i have a samsung and google account on the a55 and both are synced. in the google account under privacy & data protection the point linked google services calendar is actived to be shared within google

the apps have the permissions to access each others data

in the calendar app the birthdays are activated from the google account

but it will not show up in the calendar :-(

the only way it works is with exporting all contacts and importing manually in the samsung contacts and the the birthdays will show in the calendar :(

is there a way to have all google contact birthdays shown in samsung calender without manually import/exporting contacts from google?

best regards,

Thomas

As my Bluetooth headsets mic doesn't support me well while I'm in a call, so I was trying to figure out a way to use my phone's microphone while the device is connected to a Bluetooth headset. But I was unable to findout any solution. I tried some apps for microphone switch, but it doesn't work. Also I saw some phones settings in old android versions, But those options are not available in android 14.

So how can I use phones microphone while connected to a Bluetooth headset in android 14?

Hi everyone,

I successfully developed a Windows UEFI image for LENOVO xiaoxin pad pro 12.7 and are running Windows on this tablet.

However, I'm struggling with a lack of drivers for Windows 11...

It is understood that this tablet has a built-in Technexion tfa98xx audio device, so I'm asking for anyone's help.

I would appreciate it if anyone could provide me with a Windows 11 ARM drivers or provide me with the source code that I need to develop the Windows drivers for this audio device...
[Windows 11] xXx yYy:
Why not contact Technexion Support?

IIRC, UEFI does not directly load audio device drivers.

Hi,

I have multiple issues with the device including bugs, slowness and especially whatsapp slowness. reinstalling the app didnt help. I think this is the rom version I have, as it links to this page when upgrading (https://doc.samsungmobile.com/SM-S911B/EUX/doc.html). Can I find a better rom for this device? will it help my problems?

Thanks!

[General Questions and Answers] Johnn78:
Hello. Until MIUI 13 the below ADB Commands you can dicable the Camera & Navigation indication:

adb shell cmd device_config put privacy camera_mic_icons_enabled false default

adb shell device_config set_sync_disabled_for_tests persistent

adb shell cmd device_config put privacy location_indicators_enabled false default

but on HyperOS by making these as false, do NOT disable the Camera & Navigation indication. How to make it ?

What ADB Command should give ?
[Android TV General] Techie-Oses:
Hey there I have a sansui jsw40asfhd tv what button combination I have to press to remove no command screen and get recovery mode because I booted my android TV to recovery mode and when I press power and volume up together it don't work so anyone knows how to remove no command screen by button combination on remote and see recovery mode
[Android TV General] Renate:
That "no command" thing is the stupidest thing ever seen in Android.

The recovery init service can take a command in the BCB in /misc.

If there is nothing there it should do something intelligent, but it may not.

When you see that screen there is nothing to do but reset.

A custom recovery will act more intelligently.
[Android TV General] Techie-Oses:
J

Just tell me I want to see how it looks it would have features that phones don't have I know that and also I didn't opened my tv my tv is mounted on wall I just rebooted to recovery mode using wireless debugging and rebooted to recovery mode also is it safe yo reboot to bootloader? I want to see the bootloader too because I will see the android open source project bootloader but some people say that rebooting to bootloader causes there tv to stuck in logo until they connect pc and then reboot by fastboot reboot command
[Android TV General] Renate:
Going to bootloader by itself won't break anything.

Unlocking bootloader will erase all user data.
[Android TV General] Techie-Oses:
You sure? I will not need to connect pc to my tv to exit bootloader? Also how can I exit bootloader by remote after that
[Android TV General] Renate:
Unless you have your PC connected over USB there is no point in going to the bootloader.
[Android TV General] weskerty:
On some phones you can skip by pressing lock and volume up several times. then the normal recovery appears.

I don't know if that could be done on a tvbox
[Android TV General] Techie-Oses:
I have android TV not TV box
[Android TV General] MaddoxJarvis:
Well, the combination can vary for your Sansui TV, usually to access recovery mode or remove the "No Command" screen. Have you tried pressing and holding the Power button along with the Volume Down button? Sometimes, this combination works for Android TVs to enter recovery mode or clear the screen. If that doesn't work, checking the TV's manual or contacting Sansui support might provide specific instructions.
[Android TV General] Techie-Oses:
I will try holding the Power and volume down button.
[Android Head-Units] chubsgrila:
Hi colleagues.

I tried to find this topic in the XDA forum, I´m searching about 30 days and I cannot find. So, I did a upgrade of a firware "new" but this firmware don´t have a lot of funcionality missing.

I need to do a downgrade in the firmware, but I don´t know how.

Also I´d like to update the Android version. It was informed that the Head unit had an Android 11 (but it´s fake). in fact the Android is 7.1.. some apps don´t have update enymore.

Model: K2001n_NWD

Thanks guys.
[Android Head-Units] AbdulRehmann:
Hey chubsgrila, downgrading firmware can be tricky. Have you searched the forums for your specific head unit model, K2001n_NWD? There might be a guide out there for it.

As for the Android version, that's a bummer it's stuck on 7.1. Upgrading the OS itself might be difficult, but you could try finding alternative app stores that support older versions of Android. There's also a chance someone might be working on a custom ROM for your unit, but that would depend on the development community around it.
[Android Head-Units] chubsgrila:
Hi Abdul. Thanks for you answer.

Unfortunetly I find the firware to this specific head unit and installed. but it seems that are beta to test. And the firware date is 2024. So, I cannot install any firwmware before that. if I cannot downgrade I will need to wait a new firmware complete.

This is my life experience with my phone Samsung Galaxy A13 4G Edition. Its code model - A135F. It's a 6GB/128GB variant of mine. Cost around 200$ in my country(2023). Though as for Samsung's budget, it's called low end smartphone. I've experienced laggy and slowness from the first day of buying this phone. Then I started rooting and modding it to max level. Tried every single reviews and guides out there but nothing worked like charmed. Some mods feel good at first, then, after using a day or two, same laggy and slow experience. Those are just either placebo effect or minor smoothie. I've invested a year on this smartphone and seems like now I've finally reached at the end of modding. So now I've decided to post it here for the sake of other victims of Scamsung. I'll be editing and adding info to this thread randomly when I have time.

Post 1 - is this overview.

Post 2 - Bootloader Unlocking.

Post 3 - The perfect rooting guide for this phone on One UI 6.

Post 4 - My Mods (which contains selection of other developer mods and some collected from internet randomly. And most of them are tested by me in perfect condition).

Post 5 - Explanation of my mods.

Post 6 - Some Q/A.

I'll be giving detailed explanation of most of it in this thread.
