Hello,

I have a Vodafone SIM which works happily in several Windows Mobile devices and other basic feature phones.

However, I have a Tatung M1 from China which refuses to recognise the SIM. This WM5 Smartphone works fine in the UK with O2, T-Mobile and Orange SIMs.

I had also seen this problem on an unbranded Chinese Windows Mobile 6 Pocket PC. All SIMs apart from Vodafone work well. The Vodafone SIM worked only intermittently, and once signal was lost was never acquired - to the point that the device then decided the SIM was missing.

Does anyone know if there is something specific about Vodafone SIMs which might cause this?

Conversely, has anyone seen this sort of SIM-selectivity in any other Chinese phones before?

Some working theories I'm trying to dismiss:

1. Vodafone UK SIMs are thinner than average.

2. My Voda UK SIM is bent out of shape

I don't think either of these is likely because in at least 20 other phone models the same SIM has no problem being recognised.

Apologies if this has been asked and dealt with before. A search for vodafone, tatung, SIM, and Chinese didn't come up with anything I could recognise as useful.

Thanks in advance.

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] johnhux7:
I'm using the beta N on my honor 8.

When I'm using Netflix or Amazon I don't get the cast sign on the apps.

I can cast via the Google home app so the phone can detect the chrome cast then but no other way.

Is this a bug in the beta N program ?

Does anybody else have this issue ?

Or any solutions ?

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] DarkGuyver:
This is probably due to the fact that you are using a beta of Nougat. So it doesn't have all the features yet.

I think it's just a bug in beta, I casted YouTube directly on TV (on MM)

Thanks for taking the time to answer
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] hachamacha:
I'm using b320, and casting works in all the ways I'm aware of, netflix, full screen, etc. I guess I'm not aware of any other way to cast. Is there some built in applet for this and if so, where is it?

NM: I see "mirrorshare" which works for me fine in nougat with only Roku, not chromecast. It doesn't sound as if it's meant to work with chromecast from reading the docs online.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] johnhux7:
What I'm taking is the cast sign that is ment to appear on the top right hand of the screen when using Netflix.

I found out that Amazon doesn't include the option to cast as it wonts u to use of fire stick but with Netflix there is the option with the other phones that I use just not this Honor 8

I'm putting it down to it being a beta.

I can cast with the Google home so I will survive.

Well, that "zip" definitely isn't a zip ... if you look at any real zip in a text editor, the first 2 characters in the header are "PK".

(I think that's where "apk" comes from ... "Android PK).

The file is clearly data that the application decrypts.

I installed the program in Sandboxie & will poke around a little when I have time.

It might be slow going since it's all in Chinese.

There was a suggestion that I was a little overly concerned by the "intrusive" nature of Kingroot ... ha! We'll see ...

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arture Le Coiffeur:
Hi!

I'm new here, so please forgive me possibly flattened toes...

My Galaxy S5 has been a little neglected, it still runs CM 13.0 from January. When I tried to update it, I found I had to upgrade to CM 14.1. Well, no problem, I thought. But when I had installed CM 14.1, the Gapps installation ran into the dreaded Error 70.

Even though I searched high and low, I could not find all pieces to make space in /system. I found RePIT which does not know the G900F, and some instructions how to load a PIT file to destructively change the partition layout. When you can find a suitable PIT file! :(

Maybe I just did not find the magic search phrase that locates such a PIT file, maybe nobody made one yet. I looked at a sample PIT file, but it's binary, and while I found some instructions for extracting a PIT file from the phone, I found no tool to edit it.

Can somebody please point me in the right direction?

Hello everybody!

I was surfing through the web when i found this file uploaded on 4shared claiming to be an Engboot for SM-G930F.

Naturally, I was sceptical about this file, as I am completely uneducated about the nuts and bolts of Android, I could neither confirm or deny that this is a valid file or not, so I decided to post the link to XDA , so much more knowledgeable people can take a look at it and see if it is a valid file or not. I don't want to flash this file on (bought yesterday) my S7 Edge, so here I am!

If anybody is feeling brave enough to try this on their phone, please go ahead and tell if this worked or not

Disclaimer: I am not responsible in any way for bricked devices, this file is completely untested.

Alright, I just stumbled upon this. I'm assuming no one has tested this. From what I've read in post 8, is it safe to say that this file is *supposed* to fix the IMEI issue coming up as 000000000?

This might be what I need because my phone is giving me the following error in recovery

"dm-verity verification failed...

Need to check DRK first..."

Also as I mentioned above my IMEI is all 0's, which I'm assuming is caused by a faulty EFS partition.

No matter how many times I try to flash stock firmware through ODIN, I always end up in the same spot.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Random04:
Hi,

This file is probably going to make your situation worse, you should follow this guide: https://xdaforums.com/s7-edge/how-to/guide-how-to-fix-check-drk-imei-issues-t3379516 or alternatively make a new thread so people can properly help you.

Best of luck!:good:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] m0d hipp¥:
Thanks for the response. I have came across that thread and tried those steps, but it didn't help unfortunately. I have also tried several other things such as hex editing the EFS partition and using 3rd party tools to try and change the IMEI, but nothing seems to be working. My last resort might have to be going through Samsung Service Center.

The odd thing is that I have a SM-G930T, however according to my IMEI on here: http://www.imei.info, it's showing as SM-G930F which is confusing. IMEI is 357752072430049
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Random04:
That IMEI checker will tell you your model number and then your exact variant in the brackets.

By the way, which third party tools/other methods have you tried?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] m0d hipp¥:
The thing that's confusing is that SM-G930F and SM-G930T are 2 different models.

My phone, is a tmobile version, which should be SM-930T (snapdragon chipset), according to the IMEI checked with my IMEI it shows that it's SM-G930F which is an exynos chipset. This is what's confusin to me...

I tried flashing twrp on there using herolte, heroqltechn and heroqlte and none of them worked. I tried it through ODIN, I tried it through flashfire, I tried it through adbshell using the DD command and none of those methods worked.

As far as what I have tried regarding the DRK and IMEI fixes...

I have tried flashing the SM-G930T PK1 and PIA stock firmware and nothing fixed it.

I have tried restoring full backups I made (prior to having these issues) with flashfire, and I got it to boot, but then I got a error with it being able to decrypt my storage so it forced me to go into the stock recovery and wipe data\factory restore and wipe cache, after I did that the DRK and IMEI issue came back.

From what I've read it seems I need a custom kernel (which apparently isn't an option right now) for me to bypass the IMEI and DRK issue.

The other option I read was to write the certificate back to my phone. I asked if I am able to pull the cert from an old backup that I made, but was told that it's not possible to pull it from a backup.

I also tried taking the EFS.img file from an old backup (prior to these issues) and tried restoring it, and this didn't fix anything.

I tried taking EFS and hex editing the value into it, still nadda.

When I was desperate, someone mentioned using the PIT file from a stock tmobile firmware and using that to re-partition the phone as well as doing a NAND erase on the phone as well as an EFS clear and bootloader update, so I tried that and still nothing.

If anyone can provide any assistance it would be greatly appreciated, but I'm not sure what else to try. Unfortunately my options are somewhat limited by a locked bootloader.

Hello,

I need help with rooting my new device - myPhone l-line. This is typical Chinese phone rebranded by Polish company myPhone. It runs Android 5.1 on MediaTek MT6735M with 1 gigabyte of RAM and 3000mAh battery. I tried everything: oneclickroot, Kingroot (PC and APK), Kingoroot (PC and APK), framaroot (device not supported), towelroot (not vunerable to exploit), 360root, Baiduroot, rootkhp and many other metods and my device seems to have very good security background (i am simply amazed by the way, because this device is low-budget phone, about 80$ in my country) and there is no custom recovery to download. I have Oneplus 2 (previously Oneplus One and Nexus 5) phone as my second device and i am really into changing ROMs, recoveries, rooting and modding Android, but i don't know how to crack this myPhone. If there is no option to root this device, i will be very grateful if someone can tell me how can i remove bloatware without root, because this fone is full of uneccessary aplications, which occupy memory and slow down the phone. This is the only reason i want to root this smartphone. Please help me with rooting or if someone know how to compile custom recovery for this phone, i will be very grateful if someone could post it here, i will probably know how to change stock recovery in this phone to custom one (this device seems to have unlockable bootloader, thus i think that custom recovery can be sent to phone via fastboot). Thank You very much for any help and please forgive me if i make any mistake in this post, English is not my mother language. Below You can find full specs of this phone:
