Thanks both of you for the answers.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] halah:
Are you sure this is possible?

I just got a new S7 (not Edge), updated to 7.0 while setting up. I cannot access the RAW setting in Pro mode. My phone camera is different from my friend's S7 Marshmallow camera. I'm about to take it back to the store for a new phone that I won't be updating unless someone has an idea of what I'm missing.

Never mind. Looked at the screenshot more closely. Found it.

Thank you!

I updated my honor 8 to B360 (OTA , I didnt do factory reset after update..)

I sometimes have bugs like text in notifications dissapears or gets glitched , also pull down for status bar gesture (on scanner) sometimes doesnt work ?

Is it because I didnt do factory reset or B360 is a bit buggy ... These are minor bugs but can be anoying

I m loving update :)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] whatlobster:
I accidentally discovered a "fix" for the notification panel bug. Sometimes it doesn't pull down with the finger eh? I set my smartkey to do nothing when pressed once. When the panel glitch occurs, I just press the smartkey once, and then the swipe down action will start working again.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Coolyou:
Well it's essentially recommended to do a factory reset after upgrade.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Sheldd:
I'm running it and i have no bugs, just do a factory reset from recovery. It's a major update so bugs like this appears sometimes if you dont do a factory reset.

The nifty tether without root hack is now patched.

In MM you pop the sim card out... Turn on tether... Pop the sim back in and presto tethering.... This worked great but 7.0 blocked it... Anyone found a work around without root
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] takichiman:
What happened to me on Nougat is when I receive like multiple consecutive WhatsApp messages, and I pull down the notifications (you know, to read the message without sending the read receipt ;) ), I only see the last message, not the ones before, so I'm obliged to open the whole convo...

This and other little things like battery life made me roll back to MM.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] asnachan:
is that real that on honor 8, the gyroscope stops working when you update to nougat and you have to roll back the previews update to use vr apps, pokèmon go and so on?

this can be my new device and this is the only thing that stops me becouse i use vr a lot.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] panel1:
I realized, when you leave huawei "Health" app installed, gyroscope is not freezing. Have you tried that?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] asnachan:
thx for reply

i don't have a honor 8, but i really want to buy one and this bug is the only thing that stops me, becouse i want a vr experience on my next phone.

does your gyroscope on honor 8 works on the last update? can you play pokèmon go with ar, using vr apps ecc.?

{GUIDE} {MSL/SPC UNLOCK} -->>Diag Mode: Use QPST - QXDM to Backup & Restore NV Memory

I know everyone is eager to unlock the Verizon Boot-Loader. :D

We are not quite there yet however this is another step in the right direction.:(

We are getting deeper and deeper into this so be FOR-WARNED.

If you decide to play around with these tools you do so at your own risk :crying:

I will help anyone who kills there device But I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Follow my instructions exactly and everything will be ok :eek:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lets Get Started Shall We :highfive:

PREREQUISITES

The ability to follow each step in order :good:

ADB installed ( Android Studio )

Install HTC Sync from the link below. Then uninstall it. This will load and leave the drivers.

Make sure you uninstall it. HTC Sync will interfere.

http://www.htc.com/us/support/software/htc-sync-manager.aspx

STEP 1)

Set Windows 7 or 8 or 10 into TEST MODE ! ( I Am Running Windows 10 )

You can read up on this process here if you have trouble with my instructions.

http://www.drivethelife.com/windows...e-enforcement-on-windows-10-8-7-xp-vista.html

http://www.howtogeek.com/167723/how...8.1-so-that-you-can-install-unsigned-drivers/

You’ll need to run a command from an Administrator Command Prompt to do this. To launch one, right-click the Start button or press Windows+X and select “Command Prompt (Admin)”.

Execute This Command

bcdedit /set testsigning on

If you did it correct you should see the following.

Reboot your computer.

If you did it correct you should see the following.

STEP 2) Install the Diag Driver in Windows.

Download the DIAG.zip here. It contains all of the files we need to work with at this point.

http://www.mediafire.com/file/3ta2ua4tkibn3lb/DIAG%282%29.zip

Unzip the file and install the drivers.

There are 2 drivers. 1 for diagnostic mode and one for Emergency Download Mode.

HTC CDMA LTE DIAG Modem Driver v3.0.2.0 (Diagnostic Driver)

Qualcomm_Diag_QD_Loader_2016_driver (Emergency Download Driver)

When you install the Qualcomm_Diag_QD_Loader_2016_driver you will want your screen to look like this.

The Diagnostic Driver install is pretty self explanatory.

I,m going to leave this section for setup details. More could be added later.

In the next post we will install the tools we need and get the phone connected in diagnostic mode.

Also please see here

https://xdaforums.com/desire-626/general/programming-modem-qpst-qxdm-boost-t3488993 [MENTION=7428782]anthonykb[/MENTION] deserves the credit for originally leading me to this idea.

We are using the process for different purpose but it all stems from the same idea.

REMEMBER THE DESIRE 526 AND THE DESIRE 626S AND THE DESIRE 530 ALL HAVE THE SAME CHIPSET.

What works for one of these devices should theoretically work on the others.
[HTC Desire 526] BigCountry907:
Checking Drivers + Setup Tools

I think it's time for us to set up some tools and see if our drivers are installed correctly. :D

There are 3 tools included in the zip.

QPST.2.7.438 ( Just install it. There is nothing special to do )

QXDM Pro 3.14.594 ( Read IMPORTANT text in the patch folder and follow the instructions )

RevSkills V 2.08.6 Pro Edition (Read the readme file)

Install all 3 and proceed to the next step

Set The device into DIAGNOSTIC MODE

My device is already s-off and unlocked. So this might take an extra step for you.

First try this.

Open up the phone dial-er on the phone.

Dial ##3424# and hit send.

I tested this on a fully locked 526 so you will get the DIAG Screen.

You should see this screen.

IF ##3424# isn't giving you that screen you will need the extra step

This might not be 100% necessary BUT I RECOMMEND IT

First you will have to get temp root.

Follow here. It will give you root in the shell only. Not root for apps.

https://xdaforums.com/desire-526/general/temp-root100-how-to-temp-root-desire-t3498969

*********************************************************************************************************

ONCE YOU HAVE ROOT ACCESS

Open up a administrator command window.

Execute these commands in the shell.

adb devices
adb shell
su
echo 1 > /sys/devices/virtual/android_usb/android0/f_diag/func_en

*********************************************************************************************************

IF YOU CAN'T GET ROOT THIS SHOULD STILL WORK !! :o

*********************************************************************************************************

Verify the Diagnostic Port is Available (ALL DRIVERS WORKING)

Open up the phone dial-er on the phone.

Dial ##3424# and hit send.

Connect the device to the computer.

Open up windows device manager.

With all nessessary drivers installed this is what you should see. :highfive:

If you didn't install and uninstall HTC Sync it will look like this

Some things work but this isn't right. DONT DO IT

The HTC Drivers and Diag Drivers are missing. REALLY DONT DO THIS
[HTC Desire 526] BigCountry907:
Time to do some Work

Lets fire up some tools and get down to business.

Go to QPST and open QPST Configuration

If you are greeted with this screen you are good to go.

Now minimize QPST Configuration

Open RevSkills ( Run as Administrator )

Click on Hardware then Port-Utils then click QC + AT-Cmd

You should see the same port you saw in QPST Config

Now Click On HTC : Unlock SPC

Then Click Change SPC

Then Click Send SPC

Then Click Send SP

You Should be good to go. If you got no errors in revskills.

You will notice there are a lot of READ buttons in Revskills.

You can Explore these if you want. It's a way to read the device.

DO NOT EVER HIT A WRITE BUTTON.

Unless you know why your doing it. :eek:

You could kill your device beyond repair.

Anyway if you followed this correctly you now know what you MSL/SPC is.

SPC=000000

Since we know that we can now use the QPST Tools. :cool:

more to come.......to be continued..........:crying:
[HTC Desire 526] BigCountry907:
Backup the entire nv ram

Ok lets get too it. Here we will backup the entire NV Ram.

After it is dumped to a file I believe the file can be edited.

It is easy to restore the backup to the device.

Lets get started.

#1) Dial ##3424# then send to get to diagnostic mode.

#2) Open QPST Configuration

#3) You Should See This Screen

#4) In QPST Configuration Click START CLIENTS ( EFS EXPLORER)

Select your device under phone selection

#5)EFS EXPLORER Reads the device

#6)The NV Items Look Like This

Notice the red circle ( We cant access those )

But we can fix NVM to get access using open sesame door

#7)Click File Then NEW then Directory

#7)Add open sesame door

Now reboot the device.

Dial ##3424# again.

Then open QPST Configuration and EFS Explorer again.

Make sure you have the open sesame door folder

Notice NVM is no longe a red circle. ITS UNLOCKED.

After reboot and restart qpst it should look like this.

OK were all done with that part. ( OPEN SESAME DOOR )

Lets dump our Embedded File System now.

Close the EFS File Explorer.

Go to the QPST Configuration and Start Clients -->>> Software Download.

Notice the MPSS Version ---->>>> This tells us what version of Source to USE.

#8)Click The BackupTab

On the backup tab where it says xQCNFile select a a location and name for the file.

#9)Click Start To make the backup.

Pay attention to all the files it creates.

Look at the images below.

TO FLASH A BACKUP EFS FILE

#9)Now Go To the Restore Tab

Select the backup file you want to restore.

Make sure Allow phone/file ESN mismatch is NOT Checked.

The backup you flash has to be from the device you created it from.

Or the backup file will need the ESN Edited to match your device. (DANGEROUS)

I need to find a way to use the ESN mismatch but right now it gives error.

Anyway lets flash our backup.

Select the file.

Click Start.

Restoring NV Memory

Restoring NV ITEM FILES

Restoring BREW FILES

Restoring COMPLETE

So there you have it. We can indeed use the QPST / QXDM tools to communicate and flash the device.

THIS BACKUP IS IMPORTANT.

IF YOU BRICK YOUR PHONE. YOU COULD NEED THIS BACKUP TO RESTORE IT COMPLETELY.

WE CAN EDIT THE BACKUP FILE USING A HEX EDITOR OR THE TOOL I WILL TALK ABOUT NEXT.

In light of all this Someone Who Knows What to Changecould help reduce the device security and help us to further customize the device.

Unfortunately this is fairly new to me so I DONT Know the best things to change.

Best I can think of is to compare the backup from my fully unlocked device. ( S-Off / Super CID )

Against the backup from a factory LOCKED State.

Make any necessary changes to the Locked NV Backup.

Know that the wrong mistake here will brick your device for sure.

Feel free to explore the tools and things that can be accomplished with them.

I recommend highly....DONT CHANGE ANYTHING UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR DOING.

Hitting some of the buttons in the tools can be dangerous.

Have Fun. The best thing is this device cost only $34.

So it's perfect for learning these tools and testing.

Then when you do this on your expensive device.

You won't brick it.

Wow, I am a newbie and when I seen all these instructions I almost gave up before I started. I can proudly say I successfully completed this tutorial. Does this mean my bootloader is now unlocked? What do I need to do next to root this thing. Once again, please forgive my ignorance, like I said this is all new to me. :cowboy:

I just went in to recovery mode and it still says locked. ???
[HTC Desire 526] BigCountry907:
[MENTION=6890202]blahforme[/MENTION]

I'm glad everything worked for you.

I try to write my guides so everyone can follow and get good results.

Unfortunately this is not a boot loader unlock.

So you can't root yet.

But you do have a backup of your NV Memory and you learned something.

Plus you have the drivers and whatnot installed.

So it was worth the effort.

I have build a device image that if it can be flashed will allow you to unlock the boot loader.

I'm working on the flashing part.

The rom build is here and you can learn a whole lot about htc devices in this thread.

Really it's not for a new bee so don't be surprised when you see the complexity of things.

https://xdaforums.com/desire-526/orig-development/wip-rom-msm8909-service-rom-source-qpst-t3544178

As soon as i have a way to unlock the boot loader you will all know. Hopefully soon.
[HTC Desire 526] BSuperfly:
Hi [MENTION=7006025]BigCountry907[/MENTION],

First and foremost, thank you for all of your hard work on the MSM8909 chipset. I've found your many posts to be extremely enlightening! I plan to attempt building your AOSP kernel at some point soon on my Desire 626s; I just need to setup my Linux dev box. I realize this is now an older device, but I'm enjoying learning & getting close to the metal on this one.

Pertaining to these instructions, I am encountering an issue and wanted to see if you might have any ideas.

Have QXDM drivers properly installed; diag port enabled via adb; QPST recognizes the phone (although ESN is blank). As I attempt RevSkills, HTC Unlock SPC = success "Done sending SuperSPC." As I click "Change SPC", I receive "Error writing NV value". However, after several attempts at it, I finally get success. Send SPC = I get a return "41 01 ¶ A" and after "Send SP" get a return of "46 01 ¶ F". I'm going to assume these are successful.

The issue presents itself when I enter ##3424# (DM Command- after writing SPC). It prompts me to enter the MSL. I attempt 000000 and the phone will either: reboot or will say incorrect MSL (and will not allow me into the menu). I'm unable to access DM Command.

While I've already enabled the diag port, I am interested in sending AT commands and going further into using qcdiag to monitor gsm/3g/lte packets. As I understand it, I need to enable serial com in order to send AT commands to the modem. I'd like to get my KC and use rtl-sdr to sniff and decrypt my own traffic to better understand... Currently, as I attempt Putty on COM3 (valid diag port) unable to connect.

To give some supporting information, I am using a Cricket Wireless Desire 626s device unlocked on Marshmallow 2.27.651.6 T-Mobile network (Sprint debloated ROM as Cricket did not update to MM). However, I've attempted this after using the Cricket RUU as well as a few other custom ROMs w/o success.

I've also looked into QXDM - NV Browser - Item 0085 after a supposedly successful SPC write, and get the return "No DIAG Response Received". I've tried to pack as much pertinent info into these screenshots as possible.

Ultimately, I'm interested in getting to packet level data using qxdm, and am hoping you might help steer me a bit. Osmo-qcdiag has some really cool stuff they are working towards and I'd like to use this device. Also, if you happen to have an idea of the NV values to open up additional 3g & LTE bands- that would be super helpful! (I'm on T-Mobile network currently).

Thank you so very much for all of your hard work on this device.

FYI, unfortunately unable to post my image as I"m a "new" member. However,

[T-Mobile LG G4] Armaghan Bashir:
i was using my phone this morning alright and it suddenly froze for 5 seconds and turned off. i tried opening again, but it was looping back to the LG splash screen. this was annoying enough because i wasn't doing any experiments or anything. i was using it like i usually do and it suddenly did this. i tried to reset it, same. went to TWRP to make a backup but even the recovery froze and turned off. moved a rom to the phone and tried flashing it, THE RECOVERY AGAIN FROZE AND PHONE TURNED OFF! i then considered flashing it to stock. i opened LG UP and put my phone into download mode, then started the flashing process. it completed all the way to 100 and then my phone turned to the lg screen and then to the TMOBILE screen and then again rebooted and got into a bootloop! what the hell is happening? flashing the stock is like the final solution. what should i do? Please please please help me i'll get into a lot of trouble if i dont fix my phone.
[T-Mobile LG G4] raptorddd:
infamous bootloop, a hardware issue. you need to send it back to LG or tmobile. relock the bootloader.
[T-Mobile LG G4] Armaghan Bashir:
Can't do both because i live in Pakistan and i Bought it second hand. So i do not have it's box amd neither the warranty. Wat should i do now?
[T-Mobile LG G4] raptorddd:
that sucks. well you can bake the board but its temporary sometimes. or you could make it boot freezing it and install kernele auditor and disable big cores. may need a custom kernel for that..

or buy a motherboard..
[T-Mobile LG G4] Armaghan Bashir:
Could you explain these methods in a bit detail? The baking and freezing
[T-Mobile LG G4] raptorddd:
do a search on how to fix LG G4 bootloop. the freezing its somewhere in here tmobile section. i know you have to put in plastic bag and have it in the freezer so it doesnt get hot and bootloop is just to keep it cold to point of no bootloop while you retrieve data. but you can disable big cores. and let it run on 4 cores.
