[LG Optimus L3 II, L5 II, L7 II, L9 II] PetisoEOL:
Hello everyone :)

I have a Lg L3 II (exactly E430) and after install a custom rom, the button backlight doesn't work. When I turn on the phone, the lights works for a few seconds, but once the phone is ready to use the lights of the buttons doesn't work. I have checked the options on the phone and in "buttons" -> buttons backlights are selected the option with a time of 5 seconds.

The rom is this: http://xdaforums.com/optimus-l3-l5-l7-l9-ii/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-11-l1-ii-t3347860 but i have tried other roms and the lights doesn't work too

Why doesn't work the buttons backlight?

Thanks
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayman94fly:
Hmmmmm? I'm fairly certain that it would because it says on the design refresh site that the phone has to be in working condition, and they would know if the phone was replaced right? And the design refresh invalid or would we be given a code for a design refresh from Asurion? Thanks to anyone who could help!
[Milestone XT720 General] Giodude12:
So i have an LG tribute, actually a pretty good budget phone, but i have on major issue with it. 1.5gb of space. I can't deal with that, and no matter how big my sd card is, apps save to the phone itself. I decided to fix this by getting link2sd and creating a partition on my sd card. Once that was over, i booted up link2sd, and it gave me a choice of which partition i was using. No matter which one i put, when the phone rebooted, it gave me the same prompt. I can't get link2sd to mount my 16gb sd card's partition. Could anyone explain why this is happening. Im a bit new to the android scene, i'm rooted though if that helps.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unidentified0110:
Dear XDA Developers member,

So, I have this OPPO phone I had two years ago and a few months ago, it had a bootloop. Rather than fixing it, I just bought a new phone. So, a few weeks went by, my friend told me that I could actually fix the old bricked phone by myself so I got myself check it out.

Long story short, I did the 'flashing' thing using latest flash tool, though somewhat I ended up formatting the phone INCLUDING the bootloader.

So, now I assumed that my phone is all empty. Nothing is inside the phone now. It's kinda disappointing but I still have my new phone anyway.

However, I also wished that I could fix this old empty phone, so I am asking for any suggestion, what else can I do to save my phone?

My phone is OPPO Joy, and I still remember it showed up as MT6572 in the flash tool. I hope I have given enough information, so what now? Thank you.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] egoist6:
hi,

i am about to start my first developing project as i am looking for a way to either replace the complete today screen by startup with "cprog.exe" (which is the builtin phone-app) or embed the phone app's dialpad (3g kaiser style) as a plugin in the today screen.

before starting i was thinking as to why to develop a today-plugin and somehow rewriting the whole phone-app.

as the phone-app already exists i am thinking about kind of wrapping the exe so that it can be used as a plugin. or in other words, to write a plugin which runs the app in a specified frame within the today screen.

do you think that this would work?

do you have some more thoughts or other ideas on this?

does there already exists such a wrapper?

do you have a good source to start from as this would be my first project?

galaxys already sent me this link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=332800

but maybe there is for my purposes a more specific one.

thanksfor your help

[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aokehm:
Hello I have received my third pixel c.

I had to RMA the forst two, because the on/off button was broken, and the second one becase the sensons wre not working as expècted.

The three devices had a thing in common, a terrible purple blur when srolling, for example white text over a black background. I've wrote in this forum and it semms thta are devices that do not have this issue. Now i'm not sure if there is any pixel c arround the world without this screen issue.

Attached two pictures from a médium quality screen (galaxy tab A, 200 €) and the pixel C (500€). The pictures has been taken from testufo.com/#test=stutter&demo=smooth&foreground=FFFFFF&background=000000&max=12&pps=1920, with an LG G3,

where the purple Blur is obvious.

Could anyone test the link provided above and tell me if you could see the white/gray line instead of a white/purple?

I dont know if i should RMA the third pixel C or this is something bad with this screen.

[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dswansonsb:
The pixel c I ordered about 3 weeks ago had the same problem with the screen. I RMAed it and the replacement has the problem too. I've requested a replacement for that one too. My Nexus 10 is fine. The rep I talked with (John?) said he had not dealt with any other customer besides me that had the problem and assured me that it was indeed a defect. I'm not convinced...
[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brando56894:
I'm using the stutters and tearing test (I believe that's the one you're using, right?) and while the bars do look purple while moving, screenshots show that they are in fact white.
[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yadao:
So I tried that test and I do see a very slight purple tint, I recorded the screen with the 240fps slo-mo mode on my Nexus 6P and I see it there too.

It's so slight that I honestly don't care if it's actually a problem or not. Everything else about this screen impresses me enough.
[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aokehm:
Thanks for answering. I have talked again with google and they are going to send me another one. As i could not test the device in the first 15 days they are not going to give my money back. Again they answer me also that this issue was new for them and has never been reported by any customer.

Could anybody post an photo showing that a pixel c screen without this defect exists?

The is also a test i am doing and is the vsynctester dot com. The VSYNC letters should be grey and this screen shows them as light pink.

[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Termynat0r:
Because it's a screen related issue and not the gpu. You can only capture it, if you take a photo from the screen with another device

Because the the other old Dev thread is getting a bit messy i've created a new thread to continue development of a boot loader unlock for 11 series devices.

Dont post ANYTHING unrelated to development of a way to change toshiba chip's cid!!!

[MENTION=5414005]GeTex[/MENTION] says she may be able to get us the firmware / vendor cmds which would be awesome!

===================================JULY 30 UPDATE==================================

Trying to reprogram CID abandoned, looking at alternate methods of unlocking b/l (or getting a custom kernel past QSB/Knox) [MENTION=5414005]GeTex[/MENTION] working on writing to memory using the Futex(towelroot) exploit to load some kernel modules.

Relevant links:

http://blog.nativeflow.com/the-futex-vulnerability

http://blog.nativeflow.com/escalating-futex

http://blog.nativeflow.com/pwning-the-kernel-root

====================================Original post====================================

So far we know what Beaups did to get the 15 series chip exploit.

1) Get vendor cmds (we know its cmd26 to reprogram the cid but do not know the args for toshiba chips)

2) Dump eMMC firmware

3) Look through code for how it is programmed

4) Create a tool to use this info and reprogram the CID

We need to

1) Find the args for the command

2) dump toshiba emmc controler's firmware

3) Find how to program CID

4) Modify Beaups tool

Alternatively, If we know what the controller is and the pin map we could manually dump the firmware with existing SD card tools (Wouldn't count on it)

Not sure where you can find it but if you can dump the chip's firmware then we dont need the first step

Dumping emmc Ram, Not sure if that helps
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Legitsu:

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] GeTex:
I don't think I can dump the firmware using a JTAG box due to security, can i?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Legitsu:
it doesn't look good the JDEC spec says most of those registers are write once read only

what I wanna know is where in the boot process does it check the CID registers and is there anything we can do to manipulate it to read whatever value we feed it
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] autonomousperson:
I do not think you can jtag the eMMC chip. and [MENTION=5417447]Legitsu[/MENTION] that would involve modifying the bootloader or kernel which we would need an unlocked bl for.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Legitsu:
maby not what if you modified the locked bootloader.yes it would normally fail the SB and crc checks but its not entirely out

there is also some interesting bits in the cmds uses to read registers

and kernel mods can be done with modules
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] autonomousperson:
I think the CID check is before the kernel is even loaded.... Seems to be all with the bootloader
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Legitsu:
I would think so as well but may not stop us from doing some tricks such as chainloading exploits

where we boot from the locked aboot patch the cid and somehow make it reset and load the other aboot and feed it that CID

kexec is very very close to being working on the S4 [MENTION=4939386]Surge1223[/MENTION] how up2date is the source for that in your repo ?

honestly I think kexec is going to be the future for all devices its less effort and more viable then finding the rare exploits for actually unlocking the bootloader

I just don't have the time I once did and my skills are rusty AF
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] autonomousperson:
We can try to get it to go into rescue mode where it boots off sd. Idk how far that will get us as sd boot still needs to be signed (I think). Even if we try to chain load something its only temp and will need to be done every boot and could get messy. Chaining the CID directly is the best option.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Legitsu:
see I know the S4 the sdboot no longer works as of NK4 but it works on the S5 ?

recovery mode may show us more info

I wonder what would happen if you imaged a devedtion bootloader and then killed the aboot and let it try from the sdcard (would tell us what it checks when attempting recovery)

messy would be fine as it would provide more info
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] autonomousperson:
The dev edition BL on sd would work as its signed BUT it wont display as a dev editon as the CID doesnt match. I think as soon as you touch the sd card bl it will refuse to boot. Unfortunately I no longer have a vzw test device (pulled the samsung eMMC BGA off of it 0/10 would not recommend )
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Legitsu:
I wonder if there is a way to manipulate the CID while its in qualcom-recovery

once you boot it as a DEV edition that opens a lot of doors to do other things

I am still reading the JDEC spec pdf nothing so far
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] autonomousperson:
Renember that its just a general specification, toshiba has to follow all of it but they can change or add extra features. They said they had some extra security features or something.

http://toshiba.semicon-storage.com/ap-en/product/memory/nand-flash/mlc-nand/emmc.html

THGBMHG7C2LBAIL

Products which applied "Command Queuing" and "Secure Write Protection" functions standardized in JEDEC e・MMC™ Version 5.1 as optional features.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Legitsu:
yes but the JDEC spec exists for a reason ;) changing that spec opens you to creating other flaws :>

and neither of those have anything todo with the registers we are interested in
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] autonomousperson:
Idk what to do then. The stuff we want (cid) is managed by the eMMC firmware. The bl then reads and compares it to the aboot. We could try a man in the middle thing but we would need it to load before the check happens.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Legitsu:
read though page 28/29/30/ect of *B51 pdf

look at how they describe the alt operation mode

it says you can set the csd register I wonder what else you can set durning that time (ignore for the moment we don't have a way of setting any registers yet ..(
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] autonomousperson:
We would have to find a way to trick it into thinking it is booting. (I think it is first boot, not every boot)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Legitsu:
indeed but progress :D
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] autonomousperson:
BUT

We would still need to figure out how to get it to write a new CID (specifically what tf cmd 26 is)

OR

We can use vendor commands like Beaups (would need to find them)

Thank you. And you can run a Verizon ROM with TWRP and your eMMC is an 11? We may be onto something if GeTex and Autonomousperson can confirm this device would work. :)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] aromerblz:
Yeah any Verizon ROM I can flash via twrp. And yeah the eMMC is 11. So I believe if the aboot can be viewed on this model, their is a high similarity and may help to achieve unlock on a Verizon eMMC variant.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] al50:
Awesome! As i was just reading some forums and videos of the Straight Talk variant of the S5. I guess wait for GeTex and/or Autonomousperson to contact you with the steps needed to get the aboot from your device. Please do not post your aboot on the forum and if you can, block out the rest of your CID information. I believe they don't want that posted. Thank you for your help.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Omega Ra:
It is nice to at least see some progress here! MY poor 11 cid is begging for unlocking
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] autonomousperson:
That makes it easier when we do get vendor cmds working. I thought all dev edition devices had a samsung emmc chip. Changing a toshiba cid to a samsung cid may cause problems.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] CVertigo1:

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Coldblackice:
Just curious -- what's it going to take to figure out how to do it with those with an 11 CID? Does it require finding an entirely new/different exploit? Is it a matter of translation, sort of like different hardware "drivers"? Etc.

Just wondering what the feasibility is of something being discovered for the 11's, or if it's like trying to win the lottery twice in a row.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] GeTex:
Hi, we need vendor cmds and also a firmware dump. We are getting nowhere without either
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Coldblackice:
Gotcha. What tools are needed to do a firmware dump? Can it be done via JTAG?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] GeTex:

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] al50:
So nothing would be of help from the person that had posted having a StraightTalk version of the S5 that has the 11 eMMC chip? I saw a video of where a guy had made about it and it was basically a VZW S5. Just a thought if it may be of help. If so, maybe someone can help out with it.....
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] GeTex:
From what we understand, no it will not help
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] krazy_smokezalot:
So do you guys need a gs5 Verizon Toshiba or do you need gs5 Verizon DEVELOPER EDITION TOSHIBA!???
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] GeTex:
A Dev edition GS5 Toshiba would be ideal, if one exists
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] krazy_smokezalot:
It would be "IDEAL"... so your saying its does not need to be a dev edition!???
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] al50:
So if the StraightTalk S5, which has an 11 eMMC chip, you can install Verizon TW & CM based ROM's and some of the numbering on the labels under the battery, it can't provide us anything to pull from? Just throwing something out there to see if something may be able to be done....
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Coldblackice:
This is what I don't understand -- if that device can do it, shouldn't we be able to use the same vendor CMDs to do it on ours?

What about fuzzing for the vendor CMDs -- would that be possible?
