Perfect, thanks. Installed VLC and set it to OpenSL ES. mp3 playback is crackling. Will investigate. I haven't used my device much yet. Still need to get my carrier to figure out the voice call issue.

You obviously don't play any games or you'd have noticed it by now! I was referring to the audio crackle that is present in pretty much every game. This is a stock problem too I first reported in december (here on forum) and included a recording of the 'ding in solitaire express from play store which was the only game I had installed at the time. When I made the video playing mario kart under dolphin emu that I recently shared, I used the trick of plugging in the power cable to fix the sound which seems to only work on lineage, not stock. It doesn't seem to affect video playback/m

Oh, and I found another hack to temporarily fix the audio...receive a text message. Or send one to yourself and QUICKLY go back in to the app with the problem. No need for a plug now. 🙂 Clearly this has nothing to do with power. I see this in the logs: audio_hw_primary: start_output_stream: enter: stream(0xe6d71000)usecase(1: low-latency-playback) devices(0x2) and other various things surrounding this. Where as when I start apps that have the issue, I don't see this. So this leads me to think it is indeed related to buffering. Though my attempts to adjust different buffer settin

That was me. I don't know if this will help you, but it is an easy thing to test if you have someone else to send a WhatsApp message to. I just sent someone a 10 second "testing 1 2 3" type message. It crackles at certain points in the audio. However, if I cover the proximity sensor, then the screen goes off and the audio is paused at its current location. After uncovering the sensor, the screen comes back and *usually* I can hit play to resume the audio and the audio crackling is gone. It remains gone for that and other audio messages. What is also interesting is that if it

No I don't really play games on my phones... or anywhere really. That's what happens when you have kids and an android hobby. 😉 Interesting to know that it's also in stock, thanks. That will surely help.

Thanks for sharing. 😉

Audio crackling can easily be reproduced by running an application using OpenSL ES. As for examples, VLC can be set to use in the settings, mpv for Android uses it by default. AAudio also crackles iirc, but I can't name an example app from the top of my head right now. Supposedly related to Snapdragon audio power saving stuff. And apparently plugging something into USB does remove the crackle somehow, but I haven't had the chance to confirm this on my own unit yet. Question is if this is worth getting into since the last OTA (the "next" before pulled one) was supposed to have this

Maybe you were matched with other people on smartphone but the keyboard gave you an edge over them?

I'd say fixing this stupid crackling/echo audio problem...still no joy here trying to resolve. If you want to reproduce, there are certain apps that ALWAYS do it. For example - Fishdom. But my experience so far is that most games do this. Even RetroArch emulator.

Print finished, but it was a bit to small and stiff so it cracked in the top. But here are some images. It is very hard to get a good print with thin walls (about 0.5 mm thick), I think next time I will print with thicker walls to make it more robust.

I tried to simplify the flashing process so I did not need to fiddle with the devices buttons, and remember/read as much If I do this at the bootloader fastboot reboot recovery the response looks sensible Rebooting into recovery OKAY [ 0.001s] Finished. Total time: 0.003s BUT despite saying otherwise it boots into normal and not recovery, so can not simplify that step So now my script for lineage+gapps is like this @ECHO off if %1.==. goto :EOF ECHO * Wait for boot to bootloader to finish (or do manually holding VolDown+Power) adb reboot

I tried that one before I sent my unit to Fx. It kinda worked, but I got constant clicking noises over the headphone port from that instead, regardless of the app or even in silence. Maybe speakers too but I couldn't hear them there at the very least. Probably could've been configured to work fine or maybe I did something wrong, not sure.

Thanks, I'll review the pdf, and if I feel confident I'll break out my little tools, if not, I'll show the pdf to the mall phone fixer.

Take it apart ASAP and disconnect the battery! First under the stickers on the back of screen there are screws (only under the 5 stickers that are accessible by screwdriver) then take off the screen but careful because you have to disconnect the big ribbon cable while doing that. Then there are 3 screws to take loose the hinge parts, then the whole screen side part of the phone should come off and reveal more stickers under which are screws (also two corners of the keyboard have stickers), after taking thouse out you should be able to remove the top of the keyboard part including the keyboard,

I'm not on LOS yet, but I think the fingerprint reader itself is just bad. Also on stock It fails very often to identify the fingerprint, even if you save multiple "versions" of the same finger.

AFAIK they are electrically wired in parallel, so the 66 physical keys represents 64 'logical' keys.

Supertuxkart is fun. But it seems you gotta leave the steering wheel on the screen for keyboard controls to fully work. Most other games I've tried there is some way to turn off the screen controls/overlay stuff except this one.

For me, to deal with crackling sound, I have to install Magisk 'Audio Compatibility Patch', and I suppose the key is increasing audio buffer, but that is just a guess.

In other threads someone have reported that this issue on other devices is often linked to buffer under-runs. But of course there can be many reasons for that, but a buffer increase would be a place to start, if it is not a problem with pulling data faster than it fetches it.

I am a weirdo. I turn on bluetooth, data or wi-fi when actively doing something. Bluetooth is on when paired to a speaker or my car (which is in essence a big giant speaker). I turn data on to check mail, browse while waiting for food to be prepared, look something up. Then I turn it off when I am done. I do the same thing with Location (which is only on when I am in the car using GPS or Maps). I only use wi-fi when I am in a known secured environment (my home, somebody I know's home). I don't have any burning need to be constantly connected to the universe. I also don't have any

Okay I've spent several hours trying to get TWRP to decrypt userdata and still no joy. I am going to put that aside for now and focus on other things. So as I recall, the top 3 things people wanted were display margin, fingerprint mitigations, and TWRP. What's next on the list? I believe the only things blocking official builds are FM radio and selinux. And I could probably fudge on FM radio if nobody cares about it. Though I really should get it working soon.

I just tried PUBG first Time and won. There must be some magic on Pro1.

Well, the non-black stickers just arrived from Japan. So if anyone else from the USA wants to order the wrong stickers, plan on 15 days delivery time. :-)

A quick update. Received my warranty replacement phone today. It has a different serial number. The stability issues I had before are now gone, so it seems likely that the particular unit I had before was faulty somehow.

Okay. That's getting weird. I don't know what I've done but not only I fixed the issues with performance with my unit (Mario Kart was working much slower than you showed on the movie @Craig), I also found a way how to speed them up significantly! You need to select overclocking option and instead to go over 100%, just select something below. Now emulation will be much smoother at cost of fps (when emulation can't keep up game runs slower than it should so its better to keep it run normally when fps are a bit lower). Now all the games runs just fluently. Slowdown at the end

He said MI6 was asking questions. I told him to send them to @EskeRahn.

I figured, for the extra 81 cents, I would get the extra stickers, since I would be paying 10 times the price with the service fee and shipping fees. 😁 I'll be prepared, in case I find a crate of Pro1s on the side of the road. Or I open a repair business. Or if they fall off often. Or if it takes me hundreds of attempts to cut the non-circular ones at the corners of the keyboards.

Lucky me. I was adding water to my fish tanks, and when I lifted the 5 gallon bucket of dechlorinated water, it caught my phone holster, dropping it directly inside. I swiped it onto the couch before it even sank, then ripped it out of the holster. Of course, this caused me to hit the wake button; I saw the screen flash. Gripping the phone by the corners at the charge port end, I snapped it like a whip until the droplets stopped. To no avail, it is unresponsive. I've put it in a baggie of rice, in my oven heated to about 110F. I have little hope to see it work again. It was good while it laste

My fingerprint sensor broke just two weeks after I got the phone. I've sent them an email asking when they would have replacement parts and devices and waited until 20.01.2020 before I sent it in for repairs. The phone arrived a couple of days before the 29. Since then I've gotten no updates, but a couple of replies after asking about it. I've been waiting for six weeks now and had to buy another phone.
