[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] JBriZzeL:
Title says all, i have already re-flashed and checked the md5 to make sure it wasn't a bad flash...

I wish i would have backed up my original BL ever since i flashed the OA1 BL i have had screen flickering issues and have to push my power button 5 to 12 times in a row to tun the screen ON from waking up..

The screen will flicker really bad when i set it to low dim but bump it up and it works fine.. When i'm actually using the phone it works flawless no screen issues but run into trouble every single times when i try to turn the screen ON from a wake.

That's why i believe it's not a hardware issue. it's something in the firmware not working correctly in my revision model of the g900a.

Can i please get some new boot loaders to try out that someone might have???

I will try anything at this point i really need some help!

Bootloader Version:

G900AUCU2AOA1

Specs: G900A / Kit Kat 4.4.2 Stock

Thank you a lot,

Version numbers for h60 LL releases are X.Y.Z, where:

X is the last digit of the release year (i.e. 6 for 2016)

Y is the month (i.e. 1 for January)

Z is the day number

So 6.1.1 is the first of January 2016 release.

As they feature a bi-weekly release cycle, next one is to be expected tomorrow, 16th January, and will be release 6.1.16.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tele_jas:
I had two, fairly recent, Nandroid backups on my phone that I copied to my computer.. Over the weekend I "jacked up" my phone and ended up having to format it, which means I lost everything... I wasn't worried because I had those 2 Nandroids, so I did a reset and then copied those to my phone and tried to restore them, but they didn't show up?? Here's what I did: I opened up the TWRP folder on my computer and copied the folder (and all it's contents) over to the TWRP folder already established on my phone.

I then flashed a ROM and tried restoring just the data in TWRP, but it didn't see the backups.... I let the phone reboot, downloaded Nandroid Manager and it found the backups with no problem, so I rebooted and tried to restore just the data again, TWRP still didn't find any backups.

How can I make this work for future reference, because I know I'll jack it up again.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 83097markcynt:
Just to be sure you put the backup in the right place: TWRP folder which contains>BACKUPS folder which contains> Folder with random numbers and letters which contains the actual backup folder with the date stamp which contains the backup files.

I don't know if all that is necessary but maybe TWRP does look in that order. In the past when I've done that kind of restore I always save the folder with the random numbers and letters to my PC and then after wiping my phone and reinstalling TWRP I create a new BACKUPS folder in TWRP to put the folder with the random numbers and letters in. My restores done that way always worked for me.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] matt sb:
I'm trying to do 2 things on my new Tytn II and I'm wondering if anyone knows how.

First, and mostly simple, I want to somehow enable the date to show on the top bar of all screens, sort of how you can enable the clock to show on all applications. Any ideas?

Also, I manage all of my contacts through Goodlink so that it is sync'd with work. However, this prevents me from using certain features that are in the device. For example, you can't set a voice dial to a contact in Good unless it's in the Outlook mobile client that comes with the device. Is there any way to automatically sync all Good contacts with the Outlook client so the two are always up to date?

Thanks!

For the first issue, click on the clock, then on the "more" tab, there is only 1 option in this window, which does what you want :D

[Windows 10 Mobile] _AndyAndy_:
Hi all!

Although everything that affects mobile data usage is switched off on my Lumia (still running 8.1 , waiting for an official update), the device keeps consuming hundreds of mB of mobile traffic (mobile data, not wi-fi). Data Sense app reports that it is caused by the "system" app, so I suppose the reason are updates. As long I can't disable this behaviour, I consider the device as unusable.

Does W10M offer better mobile data management or is there a hack/an app? For W10 Desktop there is "O&O Shut Up!" that provides for deactivating or reactivating every update and privacy setting. Would be nice to see such an app for W10M.
[Windows 10 Mobile] Dirty_Frank:
Not sure, as long as I can remember-I had an option to update system only through wifi.
[Windows 10 Mobile] _AndyAndy_:
Sure there is an option, but the system keeps sucking some data through the cellular connection...

(BTW iPhones have the same problem, Apple admitted that there are some updates who ignore the setting and it is done on purpose. That's why I am testing a Windows Phone hoping that the don't do like that.)
[Windows 10 Mobile] malvo26:
Have you tried Settings>Network & wireless>Data usage? There you get Overview and from there tap edit. You should see Data plan and beneath you should see Restrict background data. There you can choose "Never" or "When I'm near my limit" or "Always". Click on "Always" and that should do it. Hope it helps.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rk2612:
I couldn't get partitions.py to work and my guess is that this occurs because partitions of my LG-G3-D858HK are perhaps different from D855 for which this is written.

Nonetheless, I was able to use the following to try and install TWRP:

1. Copied TWRP to internal SD Card

2. Once connected in download mode:

$ python lglaf.py

LGLAF.py by Peter Wu (https://lekensteyn.nl/lglaf)

Type a shell command to execute or "exit" to leave.

# dd if=/data/media/0/[name_of_your_recovery].img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery

27540+1 records in

27540+1 records out

14100496 bytes transferred in 1.152 secs (12240013 bytes/sec)

# exit​

​

That's it. TWRP installed without a fuss.

Sounds too good to be true but I am wondering if this can be used on all LG / Qualcomm devices. Anyone willing to try?

PS: Make sure that you've got Python 2.7 or 3 and pyusb installed (https://github.com/walac/pyusb) installed. I tried it on Ubuntu 16.04.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] steadfasterX:
Yes it works fine for the LG G4 and is my preferred choice because I have linux boxes only. it is integrated in the next version of FWUL as well .
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rk2612:
Great! FWUL sounds good like what a lot of people on this forum could use.

Any idea if LG has patched lglaf now like they did patch the bump on LG G3 in subsequent upgrades? Wondering if it works only on LG lglaf partitions that most of us may have if we've manually upgraded system and boot partitions from the KDZ. E.g. when I upgraded from LP to MM, I extracted the system and boot images and then flashed them from TWRP (...hope that your FWUL has KDZ tools and boot / ramdisk pack & unpack tools integrated in it).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] steadfasterX:
Well I don't think so. Keep in mind that those both are total different things and the lglaf communication is needed by their own flashing tools as well.

Bump instead was ..afaik.. a method to unlock/trick the bootloader.

Added your suggestions to the roadmap ;) Thx for the idea!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rk2612:
And since your FWUL is based on Arch, will the ISO be bootable from a grub menu entry? If so, what will that be?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] steadfasterX:
I dont get u sorry. FWUL is an ISO booted from an USB stick or CD/DVD and the idea is to give windows users the option to have a just-working environment for Android end-user tasks.

but we better discuss that in the FWUL thread I think ;)

Excellent idea! Unfortunately I get a timeout on both my windows and linux box :(

It is definitely making communication in linux - if the device isn't plugged in, it gives me that error. Also, certain commands will cause the screen on the phone to change, but not fully as expected. Rats. Any ideas? (I installed the rules.d) Also, I am on BBQ Linux (which is Arch based)

Fix for reading/writing partitions!!

If you know your block mapping (you have a rooted device and can dump the partition table outside of download mode (with real root you would do ls -l /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name) you can use something like my patch here to get things working:

https://github.com/blastagator/lglaf/commit/6397f3ad88cc9729ff671351991499523e37dfe6

THIS IS ONLY FOR G3 VS985!!! YOUR BLOCK MAPPING MIGHT BE DIFFERENT, DONT JUST COPY MINE!!!

Once you do this, commands like

python partitions.py --dump boot.img boot

will work fine.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] steadfasterX:
Have you tried the argument unlock? The name for this argument is totally misleading a better name would be auth because it does not unlock your device but uses a challenge and response method to communicate. Atm it is available with the shell only
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] blastagator:
Ya, it didn't work for me (I also tried the key that was in the comments as something to try if the first didn't work). I'm not too worried about this personally, my main goal was read/write partitions, which is still easily done with my workaround. Certainly things may change down the line though, if they make the unlock nonsense needed for read/write commands. Not sure they would do that though, considering things like the VZW PC update app would need to be able to unlock, and the key could probably be fished out of that communication. *shrug*

Hope my workaround helps someone :)

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hergen66:
I'm getting this error, too. I was able to fix it by doing two small changes to partitions.py, function "get_partitions":

1. Change the line starting with "name_cmd" into:

name_cmd = 'ls -l /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name'

2. Insert the following line after "for line in output.strip()...":

if line[0]=="l":

Make sure, the indentation is correct (more the the preceding "for" line, less than the following line with "label,arrow,path").

Probably someone by whom the original implementation works can check, whether this is a more generic solution?

Hey everyone at XDA, I was wondering if by any chance someone has been able to calculate Kilometer given the 4 byte Kilocent?

If so please advise, will appreciate it deeply! Thanks :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] BiduBR:
Can you explain a bit more?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] F_X:
Sure, LG LAF on 7.0 devices now come encrypted, providing a 4 byte response when sending KILOCENT to the LG Port.

Given this 4 byte response, there is a algorithm in calculating this response (if you're familiar with AKSEEDNO calculation on Samsung devices, the concept is similar), your response must be a 16 byte response to the LG LAF Port, this being correct, the LG Port will open & provide corresponding permissions :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] BiduBR:
This may explain why I cant open or mount an extracted partition from LG K10

I trying to help but I learning with you, very nice explanation. ty.

If you found a way, please le us know.

BR
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] F_X:
Well if you're trying to do it via adb this will require root, well that is to extract partitions.

Now if you're trying to do it in LAF mode then yes you will need to calculate Kilocent.

Once port is opened & partition directories is determined, you may wipe persistent off of the LG K10 & lower variants, newer variants like LG Aristro & others will require you to tamper with userdata partition, persistent won't remove it anymore :)

Of course, if anyone has an insight or would like to help feel free to post here or pm me!

"USB Device not found" Runtime Error

I am on Fedora 25. When I initially executed the commands like "./lglaf.py" or "./partitions.py --list" while being in the lglaf installed directory, I got the error that PyUSB was not installed, as was also expected.

So from the PyUSB guide, I got to know that I needed to have python, libusb and pip installed to actually install PyUSB. Python was already installed, so I installed only the rest of the two packages. And then installed PyUSB using the following command:

$ sudo pip install pyusb --pre

And it was installed successfully. Now when I execute the commands like "./lglaf.py" or "./partitions.py --list", it gives the RuntimeError that "USB device not found". However, my LG Nexus 5 (hammerhead) is already in Bootloader/Download mode and connected to my laptop and is also detectable with the "fastboot devices" command (correct serial number also shows up in its output). Also plugged and unplugged the USB again., but without success.
