[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Artimis:
Does this update prevent you from KDZ'ing back to 11A using Uppercut + LG UP?

If not, then in theory, if you were to purchase or replace your V20 that had 13A pre-installed then you could KDZ back to 11A and then use dirtysanta from there.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] jccspeed:
with

I don't think it's possible for it to stop the uppercut restore method unless you manage to delete your bootloader or something like that
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] me2151:
It is possible. If 13A has ARB enabled then you will be unable to install 11A KDZ. Since this update most likely breaks dirtycow then I would not be even remotely surprised if they have ARB enabled.(ARB is AntiRollBack)
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] jccspeed:
I don't think ARB is enabled because I was able to flash 11A after the 13A update when I wanted to reattempt root
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] gordec:
Since I needed MobileIron for work, I can never root or unlock bootloader. It's actually kind of relaxing. You just use the phone and let it be. Nothing I really miss.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Datblkbro:
Yea
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Emilicious:
It has been a few days since the last post to this thread so I felt inclined to ask if anyone and any updated information on this.

Is the update unavoidable and what does that mean for my fiances LG V20?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] s2kpdx:
Anyone try to downgrade from 13a yet in order to root?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] me2151:
Yes. possible.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] bond32:
You don't need to downgrade to root. If you're on 13a you can still do the exploit successfully.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] FinisAeternum:
[MENTION=4591212]me2151[/MENTION] is this true? Or do we need to downgrade?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] me2151:
You can try to root on 13A but there have been reports of it not working. It is downgradable to 12A and rootable for a fact though
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] FinisAeternum:
To anyone who is curious, I was on VS99513A and was able to run right through the DirtySanta process without a hitch. All set and running now.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] jameslapc2:
Now if only T-Mobile could make a new update. I'm not really worried about rooting on T-Mobile as they've always been pretty developer friendly.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] bond32:
I have seriously done this back and forth multiple times. I don't know who spread it around that 13a wouldn't allow the exploit to work. Again, do whatever you want - try it or not, if you still don't believe me then downgrade to 12a which takes like 10 minutes then do the exploit.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] NegativeX:
Just to add to this... because I spent the last day trying to get my new Verizon LG V20 rooted/unlocked w/ the Dirta Santa method mentioned here:

https://xdaforums.com/v20/development/ls997vs995h910-dirtysanta-bootloader-t3519410

(I was going to post this in the thread above, but apparently I don't have enough posts yet)

13A does work, but I ran into an issue on step three of the guide, where it would reboot and just sit there vibrating endlessly on the Verizon logo. Read through the entire 100+ page thread trying to find a solution and even LGUP'd my way back to 12A and still, couldn't get past that point.

What I did to fix the problem is on step 3, after you run the step3.bat and your phone reboots, once you you see the Verizon Logo, pull up the device manager in Windows and wait til you see your LG v20 pop up under Android Devices. (should only take a minute)

At this point, if after about 5 minutes, if you still just see the Verizon logo, pull up ADB via command prompt and type in 'adb reboot recovery' (I think it's important to wait a bit on this screen first before running this command... doing it right away, I kept getting adb: closed error messages)

And that's pretty much it.

It'll reboot into TWRP and you can continue with the rest of the guide. What screwed me up, is in the guide at step 3, it says wait til you get to the lock screen, then type in 'adb reboot recovery' but it never got to that point for me, for whatever reason.

Hope this helps anyone else who may run into this issue.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] FinisAeternum:
I think I did get the same hang in mine when I was running as well, but I'm not positive. Already forgotten. Glad you got it to work though.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] bond32:
There's a spot in the guide that talks about specifically the verizon version and the long boot time after step 3...
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] NegativeX:
Unless I misunderstood the guide, that's after you're able to get to TWRP and install SuperSU/Format/Wipe... then you get the long boot time. Was never able to get that far, even after leaving my phone on the Verizon logo for almost an hour. Even tried flashing the boot2.img (long boot time fix) before getting to TWRP just to see if it would help and it only softbricked my phone, requiring to LGUP back to stock and try again.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] je2854:
Root should work no matter what with DirtySanta, no?

Testing this theory now.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] livinin82:
Got results yet?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] je2854:
doesnt't work..

took a downgrade back to 13A and re-rooted!

you can actually downgrade without losing data as well!
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Artimis:
I had the exact same issue happen to me yesterday! My first phone came preloaded with 11A and I had no problem at all. Got a warranty replacement the other day (preloaded with 13A) and had the same experience.

I did the same thing as you and tried continuing with the rest of the guide and it did not fix the issue for me. At the point in the guide where it says "JUST WAIT" for the long boot up time, the results were the same (and so were the logcat errors I was watching via adb the whole time). After 30 minutes of no-luck, I moved to the step below for VZW users experiencing an abnormally long bootup, rebooted back into the bootloader and flashed my backup boot image.

This allowed me to boot up (with static screen) but both root and recovery were gone. Rebooting back into the bootloader to manually flash twrp would not stick upon reboot.

What I ended up doing was:

1) Rebooting into the bootloader and flashing TWRP again.

2) Pulling the battery after the flash

3) Using the Hardware keys (Vol - & Power) to boot into recovery (selecting "yes" on format data)

4) Flashing the restocked 1.2 kernel

5) The followed the steps outlined in #8 of the post to reflash superuser and wipe cache/dalvik.

This got me back up and running.

It was a very nerve racking experience though considering the hell I went through the night before when my original v20 bit the dust. The original one played so nicely with Dirty Santa too.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] gordec:
I have 13a there is another today now. I keep trying to shut it off in developer mode but I can't. Anyone knows how to stop getting reminders?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Artimis:
You have to disable both System update apks. One can be done through the application manager. The other will require Titanium Backup to freeze or you can use the ADB/shell command "pm disable com.lge.lgdmsclient"

[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] aznboix:
hi guys, does this phone support VR?
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] Coolbananas:
Only the Porsche Design and the Mate 9 Pro are Daydream ready. Mate 9 doesnt have the AMOLED screen required for VR.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] aznboix:
But, in the setting, there is something call "daydream", it can be turn on/off...?
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] Coolbananas:
I'm afraid that's just a feature that displays pictures/photos whilst your phone charges. Like a digital photo frame if you like.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] albertobom:
I tried the other day with son glasses and it worked for me...
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] sledgie:
AMOLED isn't required for Daydream.

This Mate 9 is supposed to be one of the first US phones Daydream capable, from a 2nd or 3rd party.

Pretty sure it just needs an update

I'm going to edit this as it seems the Mate 9 Pro is the one for Daydream VR. Not 100% confirmation though
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] zuz242:
Not AMOLED, but i read about latency requirements which are a problem for LCD displays.

Gesendet von meinem MHA-L29 mit Tapatalk
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] sledgie:
True. However it's interesting because the Daydream ready devices are all 1440p so far, that may hold it back.

Most reports I'm reading are that the Huawei Mate 9 pro is the one that will be supported out of the box. Processor and GPU are not what are called into question.

Google released their hardware requirements but the weren't specifications for <ms latency. I agree though AMOLED would have nailed it probably.

Not sure I want a high end display anymore after seeing how well this one runs on 1080p. That being said, I know the Pro has 6 GB RAM. Seeing what 6GB RAM did to OnePlus 3/T , I'm sure it would be phenomenal
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] Lodix:
Amoled is a must right now because latency and infinite contrast, if dark colour in a LCD is alredy greenish imagine having the screen in front of your eyes. There would be no immersion. The Mate 9 Pro and the Porsche design are certified by Google.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Manok98:
I write a new thread because the others don't work.

So,

I have an LG-E975 and, for error, I've flashed a bad zip file. I bricked the phone (HARD brick), because all in the phone is inaccessible: No system, No download mode, No recovery, No nothing. The screen is alaway black. I've tried to restore the phone by flashing the stock kdz firmware, but naturally the phone isn't detected by Pc (Drivers are installed). Is there a way to restore this phone? Please I need of it!:crying:
[LG Optimus G (International)] MasterFURQAN:
The only way is to flash a stock kdz. To enter into download mode , you need to turn the phone off and then press the volume up and down buttons at the same time and connecting it to usb while keeping the buttons pressed.

It doesn't matter if it shows download mode or not as long as you can flash a stock KDZ.

Hello,

I've got a Q2 smartwatch from IQI (launch q2 or call it the way you want). I've successfully dumped the ROM from it (see attached ZIP file). The ROM is also seperated into bootloader(s) and OS (the OS is the FILE_01_MTK). When I run binwalk on this file, I get alot of false positives. All the image files are real, but there are alot (to the point I need to pipe the command with more) of LZMA compressed data (see http://pastebin.com/rdfBRLxe)

When I try to extract the LZMA archive starting from the first bit of reported data, it simply says that it is a corrupted lzma archive.

Also, there is a reported Linux EXT filesystem at 0x8D3803 (9254915), but it is reported as unclean and can't be mounted when I extract it (see file extfs in ZIP).

Can someone help me figure out how I can extract all this data in order to make some changes to the OS? I have experience in hacking other firmware, but never saw so much false positives.

Thanks,

Sprite Archie Beta 3…Available Now…

Sprite Software is releasing the Beta 3 Version of Sprite Archie. Sprite Archie is an archiving utility that allows users to archive the SMS and Phone events of Windows Mobile5 and Windows Mobile 6 Devices. Sprite Archie monitors the traffic of your SMS messages and call history of Windows Mobile Devices. While monitoring your phone traffic Sprite Archie creates reports and send them to an specified e-mail account for archiving purposes.

This Beta 3 version fixes a number of issues found in our Beta 2 and also adds the following:

• New graphical version of the status screen. On a touch screen device tapping the status icons changes the Archive destination (currently Email or None).

• Remove the concept of archiving to Digest. Now when you choose archive to Email you have a choice of when to archive (Immediate or Daily).

• Schedule time can now be set per Event Type (SMS Sent, SMS Received and Call Log)

• Call Log events are now sent in the initial digest on installation (Beta 2 only sent SMS Received and SMS Sent).

My auto brightness does not adjust the screen brightness with respect to the ambient light. The option is enabled and always keeps the screen on high brightness. Moving the slider bar while auto brightness enabled does not lower/higher the brightness.

With auto brightness disabled, the slider bar can lower/higher the brightness.

Things Tried:

1) Factory reset through settings->backup and reset-> factory data reset

2) Factory reset through press and hold volume down + power button. Then selecting factory reset option

3) Clearing cache: power down -> press and hold volume up+power button + home key. Then selecting Wipe cache partition.

4) Went to Samsung tech support at Best Buy to have the phone's firmware re-flashed. This was recommended when I was transferred to Samsung Tech Support at Verizon help.

Hardware Tests:

1) Used the CPU Z app to check the senors. When covering and uncovering the sensor, the values rise and fall accordingly.

2) Used Sensor Sense to double check values.
