Hi, I need to turn of the duty cycling of the GNSS (GPS) chip on my mate 20 pro. I was under the impression that it should be an option in the developer settings in Android Pie, as it is in other phones, but there is no such option for Mate 20 Pro.
Does anyone know why and better yet how to solve it? I must turn off the duty cycling for my research project. Thanks!
hey do you find the way to turn off?

hey do you find the way to turn off the duty cycle on mate 20 pro? i cant find the option in the developer option either. but i can find the option in S10 .
Huawei P30 Pro EMUI 9.1
Hello did you find a solution to your problem? I am an owner of the Huawei P30 Pro with the latest release of EMUI 9.1. I can’t find how to disable the duty circle on GNSS raw data measurement (there is no option under the android developer settings on my Huawei Device). In some smartphones duty circle can automatically disabled when you call android GNSS raw data API. Does the Huawei supports this feature or we can not disable duty circle on Huawei smartphones at all? Thanking you in advance.

hello I communicated with the engineer of huawei only to know the EMUI doesnt support disabling the duty cycle. Are you trying to use the carrier-phase for RTK or PPP ?
Duty Cycle
Yes I am trying to develop an app using the kernel of the RTKLIB open source library for PPP and RTK purposes. I have already tested this with XIAOMI MI8. I am also interesting in buying the new Xiaomi Mi 9 with Qualcomm 855 in build gps chip. Did you ever test the Xiaomi Mi phones? I also have already test the mate 20 pro for dual frequency carrier phase measurement. In order to implement the L5 frequency on this model, you have to update to EMUI 9.1. But this issue with duty cycle is critical so I can not support this model also with the P30 Pro.

hello. Thanks for reply. I wonder how you turn off duty cycle of mate 20 pro? My mate 20 pro has already been updated to EMUI 9.1 But I still cant find the option:"Force full GNSS measurement" .

Hello,
I know, it's an old post !
Finally, is there a way to avoid duty cycling on P30 and othe huawai phones ?
I recently bought a Pocophone with the idea of installing LineageOS. Actually, I was looking for models where I could install it, since I want to remove google and vendor bloat apps.
Just after unboxing it, I went to check how to unlock the bootloader, and I faced a really cumbersome process:
- Register an account, providing email, phone and wait an SMS to confirm.
- Login your phone and wait 72h with the phone powered on and Synced with MI cloud (wtf?)
- Download an unlock tool that only works in Windows. I'm a Linux user so I had to setup a VirtualBox VM to proceed.
I didn't want to use my brand new phone and add all my contacts and stuff and then Sync everything to Xiaomi servers. To me this looks like a data collection policy to get as much as they can from Google et al. forcing users to Sync with a long enough wait time window.
Why don't use a more user friendly process like Motorola and others do???
I totally regret choosing Xiaomi, and now I'm going to try to sell it just because of this.

Just use a 3rd party app to sync your data or just backup them. There are tons of apps on the PlayStore.
And about the unlocking procedure, this is just a standard procedure and it is for safety measures. Like confirming that your Xiaomi Model has bounded to its real model number because there are tons of fake and clone Mi Phones on the market and registering your phone on their servers that your phone model is unlocked. Good thing though that the unlocking for Poco is only for 3 Days, other models I heard is about 1-3 months.

To start with, even for Poco F1, the wait time was 3 months. Then they shortened that step by step and it is now 72 hours. The official explanation was that since the phone was not launched simultaneously in all the countries, some retail vendors (in countries where it was not then launched) bought the phone in bulk, unlocked the bootloader and installed various apps (in addition to the pre-installed bloatware) including malware and then sold them in retail. It was to avoid this and to ensure that a genuine owner is using the phone before allowing the unlock that they devised this method.
These all sound so horrible but I am still using my phone because motorola which you champion cannot build a decent phone like pocophone offers.
oppo and vivo didnt have ubl , asus and samsung void waranty, huawei not cheap to ubl.. thank god poco only have to wait 72h, you gibe ip ur privacy when usinh android, if u dont want data colection from vendor, use apple..
The Xiaomi Redmi Note 9s was my top choice for phone to buy until I today read the Forbes article about Xiaomi spywware (different from bloatware… it's send user behaviour data to Chinese servers about not just web use but even music, folders, status bar, app use…
Questions:
1. Do European firmware also have this problem?
2. Will community ROMs like LineageOS solve this problem?
3. Can modified hosts file solve this problem?
The problem is with Xiaomi browser, you can use another browser you trust (Firefox, Chrome, etc.) and forget the concerns. However, Xiaomi released an statement two weeks ago explaining the data collected and a way to disable it. (https://blog.mi.com/en/2020/05/02/l...onse-to-media-coverage-on-our-privacy-policy/)
If you are very concerned about your privacy, yes, a custom ROM will help, because most customs ROMs are built over open source projects and focused on protect your data and privacy. Note that the Redmi Note 9S is new on the market, so the community development isn't mature enough. Maybe you can choose the Redmi Note 8, with more time on the market and with more community development available. Another alternative are Xiaomi Mi A2 or Mi A3, they have the advantage to have Android One, so you get rid of Xiaomi Services -and possible spying- out of the box.

Hi,
I'm looking a way to enable AHSA protocol to device that are on official Android 10 with official updates from manufacturer
Last year Google has annouced Android 10 will support Hearing Aids with ASHA Protocol, specification are open, but i think integration to Android 10 phone is not mandatory
I have a Oneplus 5 and recently Android 10 has been released out to this device by OnePlus
Sadly, i can't stream music directly to my hearing aids.
As far i know Pixel 3 and Samsung devices are compatible, i've tested with a Samsung S10e and this is working great.
Google provide a technical specification for ASHA Protocol, i dont know if this for dev or something ? https://source.android.com/devices/bluetooth/asha
So what i've found so far when playing around with my OnePlus 5 :
- I've decompilled the bluetooth apk from my OnePlus 5 phone and there some files related to hearing aids in the bluetooth apk bluetooth.app/sources/com/android/bluetooth/hearingaid
- Found a file text in /System/etc/bluetooth/
in bt_profile.conf at the end of the file
Code:
#Hearing Aid profile and its configurable features
# hearing_aid_support with default value false
[HEARING_AID]
[B]hearing_aid_support = false[/B]
I've rooted my device with Magisk and i've tried to change to "true" and reboot but changes are reverted back maybe because /system is read-only ?
i want to know if someone can dump the file from a pixel 3 or a Samsung S10/S20 device and share here ?
@johnstinks
Only to have mentioned it:
Android's hearing-aid setting is stored in Android's settings.db under System: It's either 0 or 1.
https://android.googlesource.com/pl...e/+/master/core/res/res/values/config.xml#131
Try setting this to true using an overlay?
sorry .., i've no idea how to do, i've never compiled a rom or anthing
my message is a bottle sent to the sea, sharing idea to enable / force the support for hearing aids for phones on Android 10.
I would also be interested in a way to activate this in custom roms. I'm waiting until it's more widely available before I get my next phone
Bumping up this thread. My dad just received his new hearing aid, and initially the audiologist told us direct streaming is only supported on iPhone, but upon closer checking, I found that selected Android phone models are also supported. Sadly, his Huawei P30 Pro is not on the list.
I tried pairing his hearing aids with my sister's Samsung S10 and it worked like a charm, it even has the hearing aid icon beside the bluetooth device. Although the P30 Pro supports Bluetooth 5 and has Android 10, it doesn't recognise the hearing aid.
Hoping that some experts here can share if it's as simple as rooting and enabling the setting, or is there something in the bluetooth APK that needs rework in order for the hearing aid function to work?
Hello,
I need this feature really, too.
Does someone got a way to enable it on a rooted smartphone?
Best regards
bump !
any idea, maybe with magisk module we can enable the feature ?
Best Regards.
Trying to find the solution for my son with his Xiaomi Black Shark 3, anyway so far I didnt find any ASHA solution, so I am going to check Phonak hearing aid which should support BT connection via A2DP and HFP, so it could be temoporary workaround without ASHA support on phone (seems to just on few Samsung and Google models at the moment). Anyway ASHA is final solution of course, all advices would be really appriciated.
On my OnePlus 5 i tried a custom rom called "ArrowOS" this rom does have a experimental flag "settings_bluetooth_hearing_aid" i enabled this flag and i have hearing aids support !
Now i have to found what actually does this flag when i enable it. ( what file is modified)
here some link from the android source code where the flag is found:
if we understand how to enable the feature we can maybe create a magisk module that enable ASHA for any phone on Android 10-11

Hi I just came across this post as I also want to enable ASHA on an 5t. Does it still work for you with ArrowOS?
know how to enable this feature???
I'm adding my name to the list of folks that want to do this as well (I have an Umidigi A9, but it sounds like the same basic issue applies).

Following. Thix is really interesting
As ASHA is mainly enabled on the software side (given your hardware matches the requirements), does this mean that custom ROMs on Android >= 10 supports hearing aids streaming ?
As soon as I received my Widex Moment headset, I have been using a hearing aid since I was a child, I feel very sad living in a world where technology was for everyone, adding walls for the sake of money, back to top, I also use the Redmi Note 9 Pro which uses Android 10 and BLE but doesn't pair, I tried a lot of things. Why should I have to buy a new phone instead of fixing it, 2 years have passed and they have not fix it or update about this. I have spoken with Widex & Xiaomi support, the 1st one told me that will add more mobile devices to his list, the 2nd one seems not to be so interested since he does not reply to my email. Once again I feel so bad, I hope someone will can give a solution to that.
I will try Service and Feedback from my phone also

In the same boat here, with same phone. I am about to get cochlear implant activated.
The problem with P30Pro afaik is that Huawei have disabled unlocking of our phones meaning we will never get custom roms or install 'hacks' which is pretty ****.
One would think after all these years of ASHA protocol spec being available it would be implemented more, but no. Outside Pixel, Samsung and Apple its pretty dead in the water and I don't know why since it appears to be just editing one or two lines of code to activate it.
At this stage we can only petition to Huawei to enable this feature.

Please, if you can help me for my hearing aid.

Hello there, i live in Turkey and i m planning to buy Vivo X80 from Taobao.com
Seems like its Chinese version and i couldn't find any answer if i buy this version will i have bear tons of problems such as connection mobile network, installing banking apps etc. ?
And according to vivo official website, there is no way to install global rom to chinese version. is this true or there are someway as unofficial way?
is there any experiance have you got before such like this?
I have the Vivo X Note, which was released a few weeks before the Vivo X80. They both have the same Chinese Origin OS operating system. Some developers on this forum are working on a method to unlock the bootloader and flash the global FunTouch operating system on the Vivo X70. Once they have finished their work the method should work for other devices using the Origin OS Ocean operating system. As for using the Chinese Origin OS operating system, I'm in Canada where the working language is English, and I haven't had any problems. I connect to the local 5G network and my banking apps and Google Pay work fine. My carrier would not enable VoLTE functions on the phone, but that is because of their policy to only enable VoLTE on devices purchased from them. Most European carriers allow VoLTE on these phones, but if VoLTE is important to you (you need it if you travel to the United States where they have shut down 3G networks) then you should check with your carrier before purchasing the phone. Almost all Google services work on the phone - ie Gmail, Google Maps, YouTube, etc., but although you can tap the microphone icon in Google Assistant and then issue it voice commands, it won't respond to "OK Google" voice activation because the phone has its own Chinese voice assistant built-in, which can be disabled, but not replaced. Google Backup, and Google Maps Timeline won't work, but those were the only limitations I've run into. I also found that if you replace the default Vivo Messages app with Google Messages you won't receive notifications when the phone is in dark mode. I replaced the default app with Next SMS and it does receive notifications in dark mode.
I got vivo x fold in the US
And I can tell you almost everything works under CN version ROM
except Android Auto which requires root, currently there is no good solution for rooting VIVO. just let it be I think
I'm thinking of buying the x80 pro but Chinese version ..
tell me android auto does it work for you? for me it is very important that works!
Android Auto, Google Maps history/timeline, Google backup won't work, and although you can tap on the microphone icon and use voice commands in Google Assistant, you can't open it by voice (OK Google). Google Messages notifications don't work in system wide dark mode. Make sure your carrier will enable VoLTE on the phone, some won't.

Whenever the system-wide dark mode is activated, Google Messages notifications stop functioning. Check with your service provider to make sure the phone can use VoLTE, as not all of them do.

So glad I found your answer! So regarding the Google map timeline. Since Google map still works on vivo, can I still view the current map timeline if I log in from another platform, like a laptop web browser?

Buying a Chinese version of the Vivo X80 from Taobao may cause problems with mobile network connections and installing banking apps. It's true that there is no official way to install a global ROM on a Chinese version, but there may be unofficial methods. It's important to research and consider the risks before making a purchase.
