    Post system update, fully bricked

    I eventually fixed it using adb following a set of unbricking instructions on XDA. Sorry for not updating the thread.

    Thread system update, fully bricked

    I've been using the stock rom on my phone for years, until after one update my wifi went incredibly choppy, so I tried rooting and LineageOS but experienced lots of other issues, so I reverted to the original stock rom. I've stuck with 6.0 for over a year, unrooted, unspoilt, but I was...

    Thread Can an X96 Mini power a 240gb SSD without additional power source?

    I use my X96 Mini plugged into a spare USB port on my TV without any additional power. I don't know for certain but I think the USB port on the TV is a standard USB2.0 outputting at 5V 500ma. The X96 Mini can handle any USB stick I've got without fail, but 2.5" portable HDD's don't work without...

    Thread Receiving and transmitting IR signals via headphone AUX of smartphone.

    There's lots of discussion board threads about IR transmitter AUX adapters (IR Blasters), but for some reason I can find barely any mention of IR Receivers using the AUX mic input on my phone. My phone has a TRRS AUX input and I have a 3.5mm TRS IR receiver. I bodged together a TRRS to TRS...

    Post [ROM][S905W] atvXperience - The Ultimate AndroidTV experience!

    I've just installed LibreELEC on an SDCard and am booting from that now. It runs in full 1080p, 1080p HEVC videos look great and run very smoothly. CPU and GPU are getting pretty hot mind, but apart from a slight bit of bottlenecking in the menus (I think due to a crumby SD Card) everything...

    Post [ROM][S905W] atvXperience - The Ultimate AndroidTV experience!

    Really? I've read accounts of people running 30fps 1080p h265 encoded video without an issue. Are you saying this is not possible? Every ad or description for the box states otherwise.

    Post [ROM][S905W] atvXperience - The Ultimate AndroidTV experience!

    I've just been trying this out on my x96 Mini, and just like the original stock firmware and the Tx3 firmware, everything appears to be in 720p. When I go to the android settings, it says 1920x1080, however every app seems to run in 720p. Kodi is the only one I can verify, as it shows this in...

    500 MB, when it should be 580MB. I'm using Chrome btw.

    Post [ROM][S905W] atvXperience - The Ultimate AndroidTV experience!

    Every rar I've downloaded upon extraction says: Checksum error in ATVXperience-vxx.img. The file is corrupt Unexpected end of archive I've used 7Zip and WinRar and I've tried downloading multiple times, checksums are identical. There's an issue on your end I think.

    Post [ROM] [7.1.x] LineageOS 14.1 Official (All variants) [NO VoLTE]

    I installed lineage for the first time about a week ago so I've got a different build, but battery life for my moto 4g depletes waaay faster than my stock ROM. It's terrible, barely get a day's usage from a single charge. Also noticed it getting quite hot in my pocket when not in use. Will be...

    Post [Q] XT1039 no signal anymore

    I should mention that setting the preferred network type on the *#*#4636#*#* menu does nothing for me, and will quickly revert to LTE/GSM Auto (PRL) Since I lost the ability to make or receive calls, I have not noticed a flicker of life of the radio transceiver. On the same menu mentioned above...

    Post [Q] XT1039 no signal anymore

    No matter what I do - tried every option from *#*#4636#*#* (among other things) - I only get 3G and 4G show as options for my network type, so I can't even try this :/

    Post [Q] XT1039 no signal anymore

    I had this problem a few months ago with my XT1039. All the same symptoms. Eventually I managed to get it working after enough tinkering. I don't even remember what it was that got it working again, but I did plenty of flashing, wiping, rebooting etc. It then worked perfectly for another 6...
