[Meizu MX6 Questions & Answers] LightningGogo:
OK! Thank you for the help. While doing some other things, I saw that the problem of the phone is not in the system. I am feeling stupid now. Let me xplain. Meizu phones have special FlyMe recovery which has the update option and this is why the partiotion recovery is there and is empty. Because you put your update files for example "update.zip" which is a stock ROM from internet and when you enable the update option from the recovery menu it updates from the files you put there. Watch this video VIDEO !!!!(SKIP TO 2:32)!!!, like he/she show it. SKIP TO 2:32 on the video. HE ALREADY PUT THE UPDATE FILE IN THE SYSTEM FROM THE PHONE, BUT YOU CAN ALSO DO IT FROM YOUR COMPUTER.

The interesting part is how I understood that the phone is working. Somehow in the normal system, I spammed buttons and was touching on the screen, when I accidentally opened camera and when spamming button VOL DOWN it was caputirng images. And I could hear the sound. Also when booting in the system for the first time, I heard the system boot sound (some wacky music).

Thank you for the help! I appreciate it a lot and apologize for losing your time!

[Meizu MX6 Questions & Answers] IsHacker:
It's Ok. Nice to see it's fixed. I actually never heard about it before but I did know about FlyMeOS (and recovery) but I thought it was a custom ROM. Now I know it's the stock ROM for meizu, and it was just ported for my phone. Thanks for the video!

I want to ask how to flash it. thanks

The oplusstankvbk can be extracted from the payload of an update, and it doesn't necessarily have to be the last update.

Hi, My Tecno Spark Go 2023 (BF7) Has Been Boot Looped by A Bootloader if I Have a Custom GSI Installed Because I Didn't Want to Wait 5 Seconds to Bootup It Took Like 15 Seconds to Bootup and I Thought Locking a Bootloader Would NOT Brick an Tecno Phone. By A Red State. Please Someone Help I Have Many Stuffs on It It Just Shows an BootLogo Powered by Android with a Red State Text.

is there a hero that can help my phone? or is there a firmware??
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
The reason why your TECNO-BF7 (Tecno Spark Go 2023) might be showing a "Red State" after locking the bootloader if a GSI (Generic System Image) is that when you install a GSI, it replaces the original system image on your device. This image is signed by the manufacturer (Tecno in this case) to ensure compatibility with the specific hardware. Re-locking the bootloader likely expects the original manufacturer's signature, but since the GSI has a different signature, it fails the verification process and triggers the "Red State."
[General Questions and Answers] IsHacker:
Wrong, wrong, wrong! Locking the bootloader WILL brick your device if your device isn't COMPLETELY in stock state. Let me explain how it works. The bootloader on android can be compared to the BIOS on a PC. The bootloader of a phone is locked by default. You can consider this "locked/unlocked" state as "secure boot" in a PC. If secure boot is enabled, and the computer came with Windows 11 on it, it will only be able to boot Windows 11 because the BIOS will perform a check if the OS is exactly same. The same happens in case of android. By unlocking the bootloader, you just turn off "secure boot" on your phone.

If you can enter fastboot, unlock your bootloader again, it will fix it!
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Disabling Secure Boot generally doesn't affect an already installed Windows 11 system.

It's even recommended to disable Secure Boot in a Windows 11 PC's UEFI settings if you want to install operating systems other than Windows 11 that might not be compatible with Secure Boot's security checks, e.g. if you want to dual-boot Linux or another OS alongside Windows 11.

Here's a table summarizing the pros and cons:

Feature	Secure Boot Enabled	Secure Boot Disabled
Compatible OS	Windows 11	Other OSes possible (Linux etc.)
Driver Installation	Signed drivers only	Unsigned drivers possible (not recommended)
Security	More secure	Less secure
Boot Functionality	More likely to boot	Might cause boot issues
TPM Functionality	Likely functional	Might be affected
[General Questions and Answers] IsHacker:
Yeah I actually meant to say this. It will only be able to boot Windows 11 if it's the compatible OS. Other OSes like Ubuntu won't boot with secure boot enabled. Let's not discuss this anymore as it's getting a bit off-topic.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hendrix7:
I thought this issue only affected me, but a friend of mine who also used a Note 4 had this happen to him on two occasions: the original battery and a replacement battery inflated. I would like to find out if it affects anyone else. If yes, Samsung made another big oopsie that flew under the radar.

Context​

It appears that Samsung implemented an unnoticed manufacturing error into the charging controller of the Galaxy Note 4: it slightly overcharges its battery.

The highest safe voltage for a Lithium-ion battery is 4.35 volts, and the Note 4 pushes it up to 4.40 volts. You might think "just 0.05 volts? That's no big deal, is it?" - 0.05 volts might seem a trivial difference, but these 0.05 volts are the straw that breaks the metaphorical camel's back.

It appears that these excessive 0.05 volts are what causes Galaxy Note 4 batteries to inflate.

Since the Note 4 gladly has no sealed design, the battery has some leeway to expand without causing physical damage to the device or itself, which is much preferred over what happened to the Note 7. Now, thankfully replacing the battery is easy on the Note 4. If a smartphone with a non-replaceable battery had this bug, it would be a disaster. Oh wait, it happened on the Note 7.

The Note 4 is the first Samsung smartphone to support any fast charging standard (in particular, Qualcomm Quick Charging 2.0, rebranded by Samsung as "Adaptive Fast Charging"), so Samsung wanted to exhaust the tolerance of the battery to maximize the charging speed. However, the voltage remains at 4.4 V after the phone is fully charged. If the phone is connected to a charger for a long time, remaining at 4.4V is unhealthy for the battery.

Why 4.4 volts are unnecessary​

Batteries behave like rubber bands. The same voltage gives you faster charging if the battery is less full. For example, 4.3 volts will give you very fast charging if your battery is empty, but only slow charging if your battery is already at 80 %. An empty battery can charge faster.

According to my tests, the battery doesn't even need 4.4 volts to reach its 15 watts of charging speed (impressive for a 2014 phone) at low percentages. It only needs 4.4 volts to maintain a high charging speed when the battery is more than half full, but fast charging is less needed if the battery already has some charge.

Samsung stuck its head too far out of the window with its 4.4 volts. They wanted to push against the limits, and they pushed too far.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dave678:
Mine hasn't inflated becasue I don't do fast charging.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hendrix7:
I see. Thank you for sharing your experience.

So Samsung might be pushing the voltage higher for fast charging, but if it charged at 4.35 volts, it would still be nearly as fast but would not inflate. Samsung pushed too far with 4.4 volts.

[General Questions and Answers] haldz:
Hei to all. I have work app i use to scan parcels. Bought new phone with scanner. Problem is it uses the 3rd camera and its not very good quality.

Should use back camera.

Is it possible to modify the apk or the phone?

Or can i modify android manifest ?

Link:

UPLOAD.EE - AndroidManifest.xml - Download

AndroidManifest.xml - Download. Upload.ee

www.upload.ee

Running android 12

Thanks alot
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
IMO directly modifying the app or your phone to force it to use the main (back) camera for parcel scanning most likely won't be a straightforward solution, Tis because the app is likely designed to use a specific camera, possibly due to factors like resolution, placement, or functionalities needed for parcel scanning (like barcode focus).

My recommendation: Reach out to the app developer and explain the situation. They might be aware of the issue and working on a solution to allow users to choose the camera.

[General Topics] Hendrix7:
MicroSD card support is essential because it gives you freedom and control over your data.

However, ideally, smartphones would have full-sized SD card slots for the following reasons:

More space​

SD card with 1 TB capacity.
​

Full-sized SD cards are physically larger, so there is more space for flash memory. Recently, a 4 TB card was announced and is scheduled for 2025.

Imagine you could record as much as you like in 4K 2160p. No worries about "no space left" errors. When you wake up, the answer to "how much storage do I have free?" is "yes" [sic.]. You don't have to think about how much you have left because you know have abundant capacity.

Affordability​

Given that there is more physical space, it takes less effort to manufacture an SD card than a MicroSD card with the same capacity, resulting in a lower price.

Reliability​

Given that the memory cells of a full-sized SD cards are larger, they are less likely to lose data over a long time of non-use, and also likely to sustain more rewrite cycles.

Speed​

UHS connectors of a high-end SD card.
​

SD cards have larger connectors and can even feature additional connectors with the UHS-II format, so they have a higher speed potential.

Larger flash storage devices can have faster speeds because more memory chips can work in parallel, as explained by TechQuickie:

(Why Are Larger SSDs Faster? - TechQuickie)

Insertion comfort​

Size of MicroSD cards compared to a full-sized SD card.
​

Inserting a MicroSD card into your phone takes fumbling around, which is less convenient than inserting the much larger SD cards.

Read-only switch​

Sometimes you want to read data on the card without the risk of some software unwantedly tampering with its content. Full-sized SD card slots have a read-only switch. However, it depends on the card reader to respect the setting. Some card readers ignore that switch.

I realize that full-sized SD card slots in smartphones are a distant dream, but if any phone vendor was gracious enough to make it a reality, they could take my money.

I hereby release this text under the Creative Commons 4.0 Attribution ShareAlike International license.
[General Topics] IsHacker:
Another point is Compatibility. For example, cameras use full-sized SD cards too. If phones had these slots, you could just directly transfer the photos to your phone. You can also insert these SD cards in laptops easily, so you can also easily transfer data between the phone and your laptop. It eliminates the need for adapters.
[General Topics] webhook:
I like the idea, but it would add more weight to the phone. Plus would we have a tray or a slot for the SD card?
[General Topics] IsHacker:
Yeah that's true, but atleast android based tablets should have it, if not phones. Because they are already big enough.
