Hello everybody!

I made up a new version of pof's USPL, which is explicitly for the ELFIN 128/256 MB devices. So now you can flash SPL in step three without bricking your ELFIN, as USPL for ELF used to do.

This version is based on the ELFIN 2.20.0000 SPL and was patched the same way as USPL for ELF.

Download here:

http://rapidshare.com/files/94753943/ELFIN_USPL.rar

It has been tested by various users including myself and was verified to work without any problems.

Even though, I take no responsibility for any damages on your devices.

Thanks to pof for his great work!

If it doesn't work for you right away, follow the instructions in this file to enable RAPI prior to using USPL:

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=46098&d=1186268099

EDIT:

SOME PEOPLE GIVE THE INSTRUCTION ON MY ELFIN USPL TO CANCEL STEP THREE. WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU THINKING WHAT THIS STEP IS? WITHOUT THIS STEP, THERE IS NO (!!!!!) SENSE IN ELFIN USPL.

So please stop giving tutorials on things you don't understand.

STEP 3 IS THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP! RUN IT, DON'T CANCEL.

is this working for

IPL 2.24.0002

SPL 2.24.0000????
[Touch GSM ROM Development] jackliu:
i have the same question.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] giants2k:
I received a "corrupt image error" at step 3, i rebooted the device and is working fine like nothing has happened, any clues?

I have this ROM installed:

RUU_Elfin_CHT_OPEN_2.20.753.1B_4.1.13.51_03.07.90_BLUE_Ship_Reduced.exe

IPL 2.20.0002 and SPL 2.20.0000 both remain unchanged after running elfin-uspl.exe
[Touch GSM ROM Development] nik_for_you:
what is difference from pof's USPL?

as i used it to update my ELFIN without any problem
[Touch GSM ROM Development] djvw:
With pof's ELF USPL you are able to proceed till the end step 2 and then flash the ROM you want. If the ROM is not okay, your device is bricked.

Also, for like 99 percent of our ELFIN users, flashing USPL in step three used to brick the device.

With my USPL, ELFIN users can run step three without bricking the device.

-> Why flash USPL in step 3?

Because only then you will be able to flash any ROM from bootloader, not only from a running OS.

@giants2k

Please make sure your device is RAPI enabled. You can find the necessary files including a manual on how to unlock RAPI here:

Nice, very nice tool ... no more brick then

Thanks for the work
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Taninpv:
Can someone please clarify this for me.

I bought my cellphone from Vietnam, and it is unlocked. It is windows 6 prof, and I am very serious about flashing my baby to 6.1. When I was in Vietnam, I was using VietTel, t-Mobile, and in Mexico using Telcel.

BUT I bricked my iMate Sp3i before, and didn't want(CAN'T afford) to brick another one.

The question would be.

Because it is unlocked. Do I need to CID Unlock my Elfin P3452 before upgrading to 6.1? Thanks in advance.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] nik_for_you:
somemore questions..

after runnig 2 steps successfully in pof's app, if rom update fails then i think it does not brick all the time.. atleast not 99% !!

is SPL temporary updated means after some update again CID is locked?

or it is permanent?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] ciberus:
Excelent work djvw !! many thanks, I can confirm that works fine, three users in our spanish forum flashed this USPL and it works in all cases... no more white screen to flash roms.....
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Ameet:
my problem is that my elfin gets stucks with that stupid penguin and 75% on my pc in step 2... doesnt move ahead at all.. did install the rapi cabs too.. did reset too.. any help or tips or guidance would be really helpful
[Touch GSM ROM Development] ciberus:
Try with a hard-reset, some users get white screen after hard-reseting the device.

and remove SDHC memory card if you have it.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] giants2k:
ok, i will try this.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Ameet:
so u mean.. first i should remove the memory card, then do hard reset, do the screen alignment and all tht stuff and then use this uspl software?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Ameet:
ok.. so it is done on my elfin... so i think.. didnt show me any errors... the ruu worked like a chram too and at last it showed me "Congratulations" :D but my question is how do i confirm if the cid is really unlocked... i dont wanna flash a good rom and get my touch bricked :(

Edit: it worked finally and i think my elfin should now be unlocked
[Touch GSM ROM Development] LeoArg:
Please, tell me the instructions.

I don´t Understand :(

I have an ELF touch with 2.20.0000 SPL, should I use this ELFIN version or use the 1.11 ?
[General Topics] EXA Lab:
Long time ago, when I am just start having an Android device with root, I am trying to use an app that need me to have sqlite3 binary, but my device doesnt come with it pre-installed, so I have to download the installer from Play Store.

However after some day I factory reset my device, I found that app have disappeared from Play Store, also the new SQLite installer in the play store only support armv6 and armv7 device, and I can't find any other binary other than armv6 and armv7 on the web, but I need x86 binary for my android emulator.

So I have compiled some binary with multiple device support using Android NDK, these binary are all with PIE (Position Independent Executables), since PIE support are added in Android JellyBean (4.1), these binary will only work for Android 4.1+ , these binary are amalgamation (combined into a single file).

I've created a github, for those whose want to compile themself:

https://github.com/EXALAB/sqlite3-android

The binary are at the attachment below, you can also find it on github

Binary version: 3.21.0

Binary

Supported Device:

armeabi (armv5 and armv6)

armeabi-v7a (armv7)

arm64-v8a (aarch64)

x86

x86_64

Since manually copying the binary to device may need extra work for some people, I've created an installer too on Play Store, it will automatically installed the binary based on your device's architecture, root access is required.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] bchliu:
I havent found any info on this directly on any of the forums.. But anyone tried using USB-C headphones/buds with their Note 8? My Xiaomi USB-C (with NC) ones just rocked up and tried it on the Note 8. Works fine with music and NC is working.. But no sound for voice calls? Tried VOIP calls too and depending on the method of VOIP, it may or may not work. Just seems Call does not route it to the USB-C as such but Media does.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] d_mac77:
I have the same issue as you bchliu. I own a pair of JBL Reflect Aware C usb-c headphones and they too work great while playing music, but voice calls are played through the internal speaker.

I wonder what we can do to resolve this?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Nick216ohio:
Could be the model of headphone you got. I know some companies that where doing USB-C headphone would only work with certain phones. And some features wouldn't work either. I doubt JBL would do that, but you never know. Google a lil bit might find answer.

That's what kept me away from USB-C headphones. Sticking to jack and bluetooth. But I think USB-C may be the future for is multiple uses.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Shadow Assassin:
Why USB C Audio and /or calls do not work.

Its all about Digital vs Analog.

A phone either...

1. Converts both audio and voice to analog.

2. Converts only audio.

3. Converts neither.

Most phones only either do 2 or 3.

Now apparently, you can use a dongle for audio if your phone falls under #3, but idk why they have usb c voice disabled on the phone itself. Apparently the note 10 and newer ones support it though. They fall under #1
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] TDragovich94:
So I bought my Galaxy s6 edge from a friend and first thing I did was hard reset it. I turned it on afterwords and connected it to WiFi. After that it said that"Due to an abnormal factory reset, you must enter the Samsung account information that was saved on this phone." I tried getting ahold of my friend and asking him, but he said he didn't remember the info as he hadn't used in in over a year. Can anyone help me?

This worked for me, at least the flashing of the factory image was successful. Still had a bootlooping Nexus 6P, though.

For those asking about the -w flag, you have to edit the flash-all.bat file with a text editor and just delete the -w towards the end. Save, rinse, repeat.

I've noticed that in a group chat, when I receive messages as part of a group, that anyone who sends something will show up as only messaging me directly. For example, if I am in a group chat, and I ask Bob what he'd like to do, and he replies to the group chat, it will show up on my end as him directly contacting me, and will not show up in that ongoing group chat.

[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] razzrmaxx:
Hi everyone!

Has anyone been able to do a bypass on this phone to do the hot spot on the Grand Father veeizon unlimited plan? Thanks
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Bobcus Leper:
It works out of the box. No tweaks are necessary.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] mtncat:
I'm curious if unlocked X4 hotspot still works with Verizon OG/GUDP after Oreo update. I've done a thorough search, and haven't found an answer. I suppose I should ask the same about Pie, if anyone knows. Thanks.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] mtncat:
Turns out the native hotspot does continue to work with Verizon OG/GUDP after Oreo update. I don't imagine anything would change with Pie, but who knows?
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] smt0222:
Native Hotspot works on Pie as well!

O...M...G.... Everywhere I read when trying to keep grandfathered truly unlimited Verizon data hotspot required unlocking bootloader, root, and using Magisk to disable carrier check. Since Moto X4 (Android One 64GB version - running Pie w/Jan 2019 patch) was one of the few that could still have its bootloader unlocked (and cheap), I went with this phone, planning to unlock and root. After doing some testing on the phone I was ready to go through the unlock bootloader process but found this post. So I just tapped the Hotspot button and viola, it worked! No pop-ups or warnings to subscribe to hotspot. It works just like my Moto XPE (or other phones prior to Oreo using Xposed/Moto Tether), hotspot right out of the box. Thank you so much for this post!!!! :good: So my question is, what newer phones still have this capability (native hotspot works without root)? It seems like the Pixel 3s do carrier check and you'd have to unlock bootloader and root. What about other Android One phones?
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] mtncat:
I was hoping someone would find this helpful, as I was coming up empty on anything recent regarding newer phones with native hotspot working with Verizon. I suppose there just isn't that many folk still on the old Verizon grandfathered unlimited. I should have followed up after my X4 received Pie and continued to work.

I held onto my rooted Droid Turbo for way to long and decided to take a chance on the X4 and was happy I did.

I couldn't tell you what other phones still work, but the last time I looked into it, the consensus was that non carrier specific unlocked Samsung phones would still allow native hotspot. I can't verify that, and not sure if that would have changed. Let us know if you find any, and I'll do the same.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] SR3TLAW:
Just the thread I'm looking for.

Also rooted with unlocked bootloader on Verizon grandfathered unlimited data plan.

Hotspot works fine as expected but for some reason I can't take a call and use hotspot simultaneously? I remember on the Moto X Pure there was some caveat regarding VoLTE or modifying the build prop?
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] smt0222:
Like I said, I'm stock Moto X Android One 64GB with a locked bootloader. I can do the native hotspot and can still make a call. I didn't change any phone settings so it would be the default setup.

---------- Post added at 11:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:01 PM ----------

Extremely helpful, a lifesaver, cause I was dreading not only unlocking and root but then trying to find an official Moto X4 image (and if I couldn't wait, try one of the Pie mods) and then trying Magisk to try to make sure I could still do Netflix, Android Pay, etc. as well as hotspot. I do hope Vz just leaves us "few" OG unlimited folks alone now (the last $30 to $50 monthly increase is still worth it to me as I use more than 50GB tethering a month anyway (and is not a hit on the battery at all) with two kids in the car using Netflix/Youtube etc and using my iPad as a second device at all times). I was prepared in 2013 to lose it, and so far, still have it :fingers-crossed:
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] SR3TLAW:
Been searching for a fix for the past hour with no joy.

Still running unlocked and rooted stock, the hotpot does work but cuts over to 1xRTT when a phone call is in session.

Ensured that "HD Voice" (what Verizon calls VoLTE) was enabled. Simultaneous voice/data is supported by XT1900-1.

Do you have any "advanced calling" or some other similar option?
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] smt0222:
Nope

Nope, just stock default options.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] SR3TLAW:
solved

Downloaded an app called "Network Mode" from the Play Store. Sure enough "VoLTE Provisioned" was not enabled. After toggling this setting I have an "Enhanced 4G LTE Mode" option that is enabled.

HD Voice and simultaneous phone calls / hotspots are all now functioning.

Hello,

still relatively new here and have been having a good experience in general (other than wife complaining i am spending too much time on the forum :) )

I have a Orange Kaiser, using DCS 1.5 and a 1.64 radio. So far so good,...but tonight is a nightmare:

- My SD card, a 8GB model, is showing NO FILES on file explorer, other than a ttom file: I hard reset, and still nothing. But the memory programm is showing 3.5GB is used on the card. I browsed the card on my PC...same thing! I used to have maps, photos, cab files,... I tried scanning the card on my pc, and it did find a lot of lost files, but not usable. I basically am reformating the card since I have most on my PC, except for a few pictures. Did that happen to anyone before? I hope it does not happen too often, but a good lesson learnt on backup!

- The most annoying thing is that after hardware reset the Kaiser I still cannot connect the Kaiser to my PC! When I connect through a USB cable, I would see the carging led lit, but no connection. I have vista and upgraded to the latest 6.1 windows mobile device center, and still nothing. THis is really annoying as I cannot even flash a new ROM! I tried on my wife PC, tried several USB cables, and still the same.. Any idea? Should I jsut go to bed :)

Hopefully I can solve this one as I can't do much without it!

Thanks for any tip.

SD CARD not showing any files

I had to basically reformat it and lost all my files (4.5G worth). Fortunately I have 99% on my PC. Backing up the PC as we speak!

Lesson learnt

: Backup your SD cards often!

Kaiser would not connect through USB

So, after trying XP, USB to PC options, bootloader mode (would do a 260 error), ...

I discovered my mini USB connector inside the Kaiser looked like it was not right (showing 4 pins higher than the other 2 in the middle). One of the engineers at work used his swiss army knife and straightened the inside of the connector, and... it worked. He did say it may not last long, so I may have to exchange the phone, but for now I am connected.

Lesson learnt

: Beware when connecting and disconnecting, those connectors are fragile.

Thanks all for your help, and sorry to bother you with my problems.
