Android 9 Pie for the Honor View 10, Huawei Mate 10 Pro

The new official ports of Android 9 Pie just keep rolling in and so far we don’t see any end in sight. Today, we wanted to highlight a couple of ports for the Xiaomi family with a port of CarbonROM for the Xiaomi Redmi 5A and a port of Nitrogen OS for the Xiaomi Mi 6 .

Xiaomi Redmi 5A Android Pie Port

So first let’s discuss the Xiaomi 5A, a low-end device that was released in November of last year that can now run the latest version of Android’s software. As these are unofficial, and this one being labeled a CarbonBeta, some things work and some things do not. We would like to thank XDA Senior Member sunnyraj84348 , XDA Recognized Developer riteshsaxena , XDA Member tr , and XDA Recognized Developer erfanoabdi for the work they put into making this port of CarbonROM for Android 9 Pie for the Redmi 5A.

What’s working :

  • Boots
  • RIL (Calls, SMS, Data)
  • Wi-Fi
  • Bluetooth
  • Camera
  • Camcorder
  • Video Playback
  • Audio
  • Sensors
  • Flash
  • LED
  • GPS
  • Volte

Known issues:

  • IR Blaster
  • Hardware encryption
  • For mtp go to developer option and set default usb configuration to file transfer.

Check out this port of CarbonROM in our Redmi 5A forums

Xiaomi Mi 6 Android Pie Port

Now, there’s another Xiaomi smartphone that just received an unofficial port of Android 9 Pie as well, and it happens to be the Xiaomi Mi 6, thanks to Nitrogen OS. Unlike with the custom ROM listed above, the developers haven’t listed anything about what works or doesn’t work. They do have a section labeled Known Bugs, but it just lists “bugs-bugs” under it. So it’s possible that this port is much more stable than the Redmi 5A port. This Android 9 Pie port comes to us thanks to the work of XDA Senior Member wloot , XDA Senior Member xyyx , XDA Senior Member ezio84 , XDA Recognized Developer and Contributor BeansTown106 , XDA Senior Member maxwen , and XDA Senior Member SyCreed .

How to change the PIM of a VeraCrypt volume

The developers of VeraCrypt introduced Personal Iterations Multiplier (PIM) functionality in the encryption program in version 1.12 . PIM stands for "Personal Iterations Multiplier". It is a parameter that was introduced in VeraCrypt 1.12 and whose value controls the number of iterations used by the header key derivation function. PIM is used by volumes even if the creator of the volume did not specify a value. It is an optional component that improves security: it adds another step to the authentication process similarly to two-factor authentication. The main difference is that the PIM value is fixed and not generated on the fly when requested. An attacker needs to know the master password and the PIM, if not set to default, to breach the encryption successfully and access the content of the drive or partition. A couple of good reasons exist to change the PIM value: It was leaked or stolen. The default value is used and that is not as secure as using a custom PIM. Yo...

Realme U1 with MediaTek Helio P70 launched in India for ₹11,999

Realme is an emerging smartphone brand in India, with a focus on budget and early mid-range segments. Realme started off as an online-only sub-brand of OPPO, but then later on, became its own separate brand . Realme devices ar seen to undercut the competition on their price value, and hence, coming up as viable alternatives despite the infancy of the brand. To keep up the pressure, Realme has now launched the Realme U1, the first smartphone with MediaTek’s Helio P70 SoC , in India. Realme U1 is the first smartphone in the company’s U series, which in-turn is the lineup that will be focused on photography. The rest of the company’s lineup includes the C series, the numbered series and the Pro series. The Realme U1 is being touted as “India’s Selfie Pro”, mainly because of its front camera — a single 25MP Sony IMX576 sensor with an f/2.0 aperture and 1.8-micron pixels. There’s software features like an AI Beauty+ mode that is optimized for Indian complexions, a Smarter Groupie featur...

The 5 Best Free IPTV Apps to Watch Live TV on Android

It’s easier than ever to watch on-demand TV shows and movies on your Android device. But what about live TV? Yes, there are services like Sling and PlayStation Vue. However, if you know where to look, you don’t need to subscribe to their expensive plans. You can use free IPTV instead; you just need an IPTV app and an IPTV source. What Is an IPTV App? IPTV apps are a bit like Kodi; they are empty shells that can’t stream any content without some user input. You have the responsibility for adding channels, playlists, and other sources. Typically, you cannot use the apps to watch Netflix, Hulu, or direct content from other third-party providers. Here, we’re not interested in the best on-demand streaming apps or places to watch TV online. We are only looking at the IPTV apps themselves. Specifically, we want to know what the best IPTV apps on Android are. 1. Lazy IPTV Our first pick is Lazy IPTV. It supports M3U playlists in open-view, ZIP, and GZ formats.
