[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] spheraprod:
Hi,

Samsung has given each of its smartphones, including the Samsung Galaxy Alpha, a so-called test-menu, which is also called service or secret menu. This menu can be used to test the functions of hardware components independently of the Android operating system .

To display the test menu on the Samsung Galaxy Alpha, you must follow this step by step guide:

Open from your Home screen the phone app. Switch within this app to the "Keypad" and then enter the following code on the keyboard:

*#0*#

When you enter this code, a new menu with different gray tiles on a white background will be displayed. Each of the tiles represents a hardware test. For example all sensors that are integrated in the Samsung Galaxy Alpha, can be tested under "sensor".

To exit the test menu, tap quickly twice on the Samsung Galaxy Alpha back button.

You now know where you can find and open the Test menu on your Samsung Galaxy Alpha.

[HTC Desire 510] LarryLightning:
Hi All, this is from my other thread but i thought i would post a new thread now everything is confirmed working

If anyone has bricked their 64 bit Desire 510 by trying to load 32 bit roms as i did this is a stock ROM (bloatware and all) to get you back up and running

https://www.dropbox.com/s/yg4q8dy3g4vwhlu/Stock_rom_20150519_082814.zip?dl=0

Instructions: Flash with Philz Touch CWRM

I am on EE and the ROM is S-ON i dont think it will but not entirely sure if it will work on other networks as i have nothing to test it against

Disclaimer: Please use with caution i hold no responsibility for bricked handsets etc.

lastly i may look into making a slimmed down diet version if anyone would be interested
[HTC Desire 510] nikbeee:
trying it

Going to try it now seeing as only option lol !! I got it unlocked was running in root and just out interest tried encrypting the phone after all done

Stupidly .... cause now its bricked .... i got stuck on a lock screen to get back in after encryption with a text box for code entry but no enter button.

Seriously unlucky - no fix i can find .. so need an ruu .. this is my best option i think so far .. notin on HTC Dev but may email them i think .. i am on an unlocked vodaphone PayG that died with USB debugging enabled but was both network and software unlocked (now relocked for flash) ... So who knows ! ill let you know.

Thanks .. you are a legend for being the only person who has posted one on this radio no. ... much appreciated - worth a try
[HTC Desire 510] nikbeee:
OO

Well thats worked i now have an enter button and a fixed phone .. takes up less space than vodofone .. time to wreck it again ..thanks a lot!!
[HTC Desire 510] LarryLightning:
Glad it worked on Vodafone I may make a slimmed down version so watch this space
[HTC Desire 510] nikbeee:
Thanks again !! saved my bones .. Been stripping bits out the system i won't use - cluelessly but all good so far !

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] falloutphil:
Hi all,

My screen is playing up on my Nexus.

Basically I fell asleep on it like an idiot, and when I woke up the screen was having a bit of a crazy pixel party. No noticable physical damage to the screen tho. The device was running hot.

I had originally thought it might be a dead battery issues as the symtoms match this problem, and have tried the various resetting instruction for that, since I was struggling to get it to reboot turn on.

However I have since managed to get it to boot - but the screen is totally blank - not even a flicker.

I know it has booted because I can send it an email and hear the e-mail chime a few moments later.

I've had the back off but it doesn't look overly user serviceable.

I'm close to giving up, buth thought before I go and spend on a new tablet see if anyone had seen something similar or had any ideas?

I've found videos suggesting that the screen connector for the Nexus 7 is unreliable, but the layout of the back shown in the video of the tablet is different to mine, so I'm assuming this is a Nexus 7 2012 problem?

Any advice much appreciated!

EDIT: Apologies noticed the sticky saying this should go in Q&A not General. If mods can move it?

Thanks,

Phil.

You said it yourself you broke the screen. There's a bunch of guides and videos to show you how to replace it. It's not hard just takes a little time.

Hi guys, been searching the forum but have not found a thread with similar issue.

I updated to Lollipop and i frequent the S Planner widget.

After some usage (few days) my widget goes missing. But when I hold my finger on that page long enough, it allows me to edit/move/remove my widget.

It only can be solved by removing and re-adding the widget. It will disappear again in a couple of days time.

clear cache before. factory reset before as well. didnt solve my prob.

So, it's been a while since I had this issue and I know I'm not alone. :mad:

That issue being that metro lines number does not appear anymore on the google maps mobile application, where it used to appear. And it still works on the desktop version as you can see on the following screenshots :

This is a patched SPL for HTC Artemis devices (HTC P3300 / T-Mobile MDA compact III / O2 XDA Orbit / Dopod P800W / Dopod P800 / Dopod M700 / Orange SPV M650).

This SPL is based on original Artemis 1.11 SPL but includes 3 patches:

SuperCID / SecLevel=0 (set 32)

Does not check Model ID

Does not check signature*

(*) code must be formally signed i.e. contain properly-formated signatures on their places, however no checking are performed against them.

This means you can flash ANY ROM to your Artemis after flashing USPL on it, no need to pay for CID unlock anymore!

Disclaimer:

This is free to use but at your own risk, I take no responsibility for any conflict, fault, or damage caused to your phone by this unlocking procedure. No warranties of any kind are given. Any commercial usage prohibited.

Instructions:

1. Unzip

2. Connect your phone to computer, make sure activesync is enabled (green icon)

3. Run start_uspl.exe on your computer and wait until process finishes

4. See Artemis_USPL_Manual.zip (PDF) for more detailed instructions!

Thanks to:

arc, fdp24, itsme, machinagod, Des, Olipro, and all others who I forget!

everyone else in xda-developers.com :)

[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] Shand359:
Thank you for those kind words. I do not doubt pof's credibility. I also do not doubt that he has tested this program. I am just the unlucky person who would try this and get the thing all wrong and end up with a brick. I am quite good this way.

Please, it would appear my last message was doubting pof's abilities. That is definately not the case.

POF, I apologize to you, please though understand where I am coming from. Thank you.
[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] walshieau:
i do understand where you come from... but as you can see 4 other people have downloaded the program and tested it... if there was an issue im sure they would have voiced it...
[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] planeta:
Possible any changes in start_uspl.exe?

As first many thanks for your help and for the many time that you invest in the development some tools.

Now my question:

It is possible that you make a update for your developed tool "start_uspl" so that the updater function even if the phone are connected in bootloader modus?

I think that is the solution for some bricked phones after updates with locked CID.

Greets from Liechtenstein, planeta
[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] tupisdin:
Ooops :) They did it again!
[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] pof:
Sorry but not possible, it first transfers patched SPL through activesync and places it on phone memory, and needs WinCE for that. If you already have a brick that tool will not help you.

USPL vs. other methods.

USPL vs. other methods.

One of the key benefit of USPL compared to other methods, is that USPL enables you to flash any ROM version, regardless of your device model ID.

To minimise a risk it is recommended to have USPL installed before flashing device with modified WM6 ROM or any other constructed ROMs.

In case of failure, you will be able to re-flash your device with any desired ROM version for ARTEMIS.

[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] SNL:
A very big thanks to all you guys involved making this wonderfull tool!

Because im using WinXP 64bit on my desktop, i had to figure out a way for patching my Artemis:

From within WinXP 64bit, the DOS-box comes up a second and then disappears again. Nothing was executed.

Now i read here a post about using VMware to make a WinXP 32bit system. I did so and i was able to run the USPL tool. The screen of my Artemis faded out and the RUU tool started. When executing i got the 260 error. I pulled out my USB cable and reconnected it. Then ran the RUU tool manually. Too bad... again a 260 error. (i read about this method in this topic) I suggested that VMware was the cause of the 260 error. So i closed my virtual 32bit system and executed the RUU utility from my x64 desktop. !!! Still had my Artemis with a faded out screen !!! mentioning that step 1 was executed correctly. When i ran the RUU utility from WinXP 64bit, it completed without any problems!!!

So in a nutshell:

- executed USPL from within a virtual WinXP 32bit machine

- closed the RUU utility and checked if my Artemis had a blank screen

- closed my virtual machine

- ran the RUU utility from my WinXP 64bit system

I hope this can be helpfull for u guys having errors.
[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] DannyBoy:
Just wanted to thank you for this great software. I'm now running the B&B v2 WM6 sucessfully on my uk orbit. :D

I had the exact same connection problems previously mentioned on all three of my pc's. All of which run XP (so its not just a Vista problem) one had activesync 4.2 the other 2 had 4.5. I tried all the previous posts about changing/updating drivers but nothing worked on any of them. Finally in desperation I dug out my old laptop which had XP and AS 4.5 and it worked first time???

No idea whats causing this problem but my advice is to just try as many pc's as you can lay your hands on (luckily I had a few :D).

Also just for the noob's when you've downloaded your ROM put it in the same folder as all the USPL stuff before running anything. Took me a while to work that one out ;)

Dear Pof...

I can not thank you enough!!!

I've been bugging my network provider to have my ROM changed so i can have an english version (got mine from France) eversince i got my phone last march. but they told me they couldn't do anyting about it at that time. then just this last month, i went to a celfone shop and asked about it and they're asking me to pay 80 euros to have my ROM changed!

then i came across this site just last night, i found your post, signed up to be a member, browsed through the forums for 6 straight hours and most of the time i didn't understand what everybody was talking about, but i was so desperate that i was willing to learn and try anything... and what do you know??? i got what i've been wishing for for 3 months in just 6 hours in this forum!!!

i followed your instructions, then found an english ROM for another post and voila!!!!

thanks so much, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

0 to 100 in DOS mode worked, ActiveSync then turned grey but I could continue. The process that should need 10 mins takes about 10 secs, then the PC says "Congratulations", Artemis reboots and everything looks like before. Is this possible? Is there a way to check if it worked? Can I try updating with another ROM or is this risky?

Thank's a lot and sorry - haven't read all the 18 pages.
[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] mhuhn:
Couldn't wait, just tried it, worked perfectly :) Obviously the "10 min" information is for complete ROMs, not for the USPL itself.

to rvbcrs

errr.... just wanna let you know i'm a girl. hehehe....

and also, just to share another experience i had... people, before doing or following any instructions from any posts (not just from xda developers), make sure you've read EVERYTHING carefully. just coz i was able to flash my device with an english ROM, i thought i could do almost anything with it. i found another site that gave instructions to upgrade my wm5 to wm6. i didn't know i had to flash USPL again if i wanted to flash another rom. so being ignorant about this.... i bricked my phone. for anybody who doesn't know what's happening it could just be a matter of asking yourself, "what's wrong with this thing?". but for those of us who've heard the words "bricked," "sent back to the manufacturer for repair," this could be a nightmare!

luckily despite my panic, i had the sense to stay up and dig through the forums from this site again to find any solution. i didn't even know what bootloader mode is, nor even what the "soft keys" are (my phone came in with a french manual, which i can't read. fortunately, i found an english manual in .pdf from this site) but this forum has it ALL! i even found a link to download the original ROM of my device! not only was i able to solve my problem in TWO hours, but i also got to know my phone a little bit more!

this site RULES! please, let me know how i can donate. you guys have saved me a lot of money, as i'm sure you have other people with itchy fingers like mine, too.

Hi guys,

Slight issue, following the initial steps for USPL patching, the wizard pops up ready to flash the rom, but at that point due to the orbit going 'white screen', active sync drops the connection making it unable to actually flash with a new rom.

[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] w4llsb4lls:
Exactly the same for me, managed to get through to the update rom part, but as you say mine flies from 0 to 100% in around 4 seconds.

After the reboot I am on the same old rom :(
[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] pvdhelm:
Thats because this isn't a rom but this tool is for cid unlocking your device. after this you are able to flash an other rom like Black&blue V3 rom. or you can flash a radio update rom to your device.
[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] redski:
if it said completed, then it must be, especially if there was a message that said "congratulations... etc."

otherwise, you may just have to try it again. the first time i tried to flash my device with this i got everything right in one go, but second time i did it to flash another rom, it took me like five tries to get it right.
[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] w4llsb4lls:
I was under the impression that this way took you through to the rom flash wizard after the cid was patched, and you simply made sure the rom was in the root folder of the applications.

However, as pvdhelm stated this is not the way to do things.

Once you have used the uspl patcher and you have a white screen etc then launch the PDAVIET_Black&Blue_v3_WWE_Full installer, and it should be fine.

Following several hours of messing around, I now have WM6 running smoothly. A big thanks to pvdhelm for pointing me in the right direction, and I must say also that this rom is absolutely marvellous.

Smoother, faster, more useable, more detailed modification options, and looks way better which is always nice too. The wifi seems to be more stable, and the launcher and task bar applications are a god send.

Highly recommended, and no need for me to keep checking the carriers website for this long awaited official release, to be honest I dont see it being as good as this one. Infact it will more than likely be bogged down with their branded skin and other craps...

[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] Tamagochi:
Your SPL is 1.11, It means that you have successfully flashed USPL.

Note that USPL does not unlock CID. It only bypasses the CID and Signature checking procedures. With USPL you can flash any Artermis ROM, but the CID remains intact. Thus, you should flash only OS in order to keep USPL, or you have to flash USPL again after any full flash. Hope it helps
