First off, I want to thank everybody who helped me decide to take the leap to the HTC 1.33 ROM...got an 8GB Sandisk memory card and it works beautifully...but now the AlphaNumeric display I got from Surreal Networks won't show...I've searched the forums but nobody's got any answers...anybody?
[HTC Excalibur] pfunkside:
I use this one with no problems.
[HTC Excalibur] naars90:
thank you!

thanks, man....appreciate it...!
[HTC Excalibur] bratz:
excuse me for my ignorance but for what i can use this software
[HTC Excalibur] rydr1:
it just adds the number/letter bar on top of the screen when you are dialing out or in a call. it is used for when you need to call a number like 1800-tmobile.
[HTC Excalibur] bratz:
ah ok, thank you

hi

my little brother made a pattern lock and forgot the pattern, after many tries the phone erased everything

he doesn't know the email he used it on phone or the password

now it boots welcome screen and asks for the old email, i did tried make new but it doesn't works.

so i figured i should just wipe everything with hard reset

from what i read and saw some videos, i should turn off and then connect to power then wait a little, then press power and vol up for 10 seconds then release my finger from the power button.

i tried it many many times but it doesn't works.

any help?
[Nokia 6 Questions & Answers] Marius.Petran:
Switch off your phone,then connect the charger to your phone and quickly press and hold volume up and power buttons,after the screen is blinking a bit release power button,but hold volume up until you are in recovery mode.
[Nokia 6 Questions & Answers] aos10:
it doesn't works, it's like the vol up doesn't work when the phone is switched off, but when i power on the phone and finish booting i can vol up.

i can enter download mode (vol down + power) but it doesn't do anything.
[Nokia 6 Questions & Answers] aos10:
it doesn't works, is there other way for hard reset?
[Nokia 6 Questions & Answers] aos10:
ok, managed boot to recovery mode, did wibe out data, after i restarted, it asked me the email that been used on the same device before format, however my little brother can't even remember the email he used.

[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] ray.understood:
I'd like to use a third party music app (preferably Vanilla) but when I connect with my car by bluetooth the stock music player always auto starts playback. If I force quit the app the music sometimes continues playing even though the app isn't visible in the app list anymore. In rare cases I managed to force quit the stock player and get the third party player running (while my car system's display still showing the track from the stock player). Is that behaviour caused by my car system or is it the generic music app? Is there a way to disable the stock music app? The main reason to switch players is that I want one that has more features like integrated equalizer, swipe function and screen stay awake features. I know that eq and stay awake can be added by separate apps but thet's not what I call good usability.

Since this update, I get no cell reception. It's fine when it first boots, then 4g flashes on and nearly instantly it drops to disconnected.

I've tried safe mode, thinking it was that. Nope.

Uninstalled digits. Nope.

Anyone else? Any ideas short of hard reset?

If it was a simpler process and wasn't risking tripping anything then yeah its good to try but lets not forget this version was never meant to be in the hands of consumers.

[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
I had to return mine within return period because of some build issues. The rep from Essential advised me to return the device and then re-purchase another one, so I did. The thing is that I just got the new phone and it wouldn't turn on(help power for long time), seems that battery is completely depleted. Has anyone received a new phone with battery without any juice?
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] creeater:
Yes, mine was completely dead. Had to charge it up.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
It took about 10 minutes for the phone to even turn the display on after I plugged it in. Just strange that phone had no battery power out of the box.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] GrandStar:
This happen sometimes, you shouldn't worry about it.

As for it taking 10 minutes to turn on, that's how rapid charging battery works. If its nearly drained out of power, it will prep it first by charging slowly up to 5 - 15% depending on how it was setup before it will do the rapid charging. Don't worry about it, enjoy your phone!

After charging it, the phone seems to be working fine, thanks!

Hey guys hope somebody can help me

My Moto g is unlocked but I can't make it to read another SIM, I don´t know if it is because I´m using an adapter for the micro sim but only reads one sim that I have. It doesn't ask me to introduce unlock code or anything.

Already flashed another modem and a custom rom without change. Is there something I can do or test?

Hello.

I just bought a brand new Ulefone S8 Pro from Gearbest.

While connecting to my company's wifi an alarm from their security service (Esentire) picked up a trojan signature hash: Triada.aw

Anyone had this problem before?

How can I root this phone and which ROM should I flash?

Thank you.
[Security Discussion] IronRoo:
Don't know about your phone specifically but you should be able to find a way to disable that app (others too maybe) their are many tutorials on web eg

https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/

Or maybe apps like Package Disabler or Debloater etc will work for you. But if you can find a root method & custom ROM, that may be better (best to use a well known one from a trusted dev here on XDA)
[Security Discussion] mfonemaello:
same problem with ulefone

Hello, I have the same problem and I have sent several emails to the company to eliminate the Trojan of the sound recorder ... but they still do not answer.

I'll keep sending more emails, but ... if some developer does twrp for our phone, we can root it and delete it.
[Security Discussion] r1kkman:
Workaround

Yes, Ulefone just doesn't care. You can try ADB, then uninstall that app. The apk stays on the phone but inactive. That's what I have done.

Trojan in recorder of ulefone s8 pro

The problem of the Trojan of my ULEFONE S8 PRO is the sound recorder, and it is installed in the system part, so if I do not root or install TWRP I can not delete it. If any developer can help us and give us some solution ... I sent several emails to ULEFONE and they do not answer. The Trojan was detected by ESET NOD 32 MOBILE.

Thank you:(
[Security Discussion] IronRoo:
They will not remove it it's what they built into system & it is working exactly as it was designed to work, I believe. It's just that most people would probably class it as a Trojan due to it's behavior.

you should freeze it like [MENTION=8803098]r1kkman[/MENTION].
[Security Discussion] r1kkman:
freeze it

Yes, with TWRP or CWM we could root it and delete the apk, but with ADB you can uninstall it. Then just the apk package sits in the priv-apps folder, without harming the OS.

Hi there!

Thanks for the help regarding Ulefone S8 Pro Tojan.

Just received my brand new S8 Pro yesterday 14.02.2018.

Shipped from the "Ulefone Official Store" at Aliexpress.

However, so far everything fine, beside the fact that they still ship out devices with the Trojan in the ROM.

Checking with ESET, IKARUS and Malwarebytes confirms the result.

Build Number: F9G62C.GQU.Ulefone.HB.H.SSXSJS5MH.0718.V3.01

However I could successfully remove the soundrecorder.apk by using ADB shell.

Nethertheless Ulefone doesn't offer FOTA update after 3 months of detecting the virus in the firmware.

Best regards
[Security Discussion] IronRoo:
I believe they are unlikely to change the trojan app as they do not regard it as such, it's working as they intended, .... one man's Trojan is another man's feature :silly:

I have just updated to V3.03

Found on needrom.com

And there are no hidden Spy Apps like on V3.01
[Security Discussion] Korin67:
I tried but no success

I found it in needrom.com. I used MP MDT. It contains everything including device driver. I followed all the steps as

the author said. First of all, my OS 's (tried Win10 and Win8) do not detect my Ulefone. I checked device manager but

no port appears. Needless to say, SP_MDT does not detect anything in step 9).

What version of OS did you use? You used device driver included in the SP_MDT package?

Please describe (briefly) about your success story.

Thanks.
[Security Discussion] Korin67:
Solved

After posting my problem, I kept trying and solved. The solution is easy. Use the newest version of SP_Flash_Tool.

The version is 5..1804 at this moment. Everything was smooth on this tool. I tried with my Win8. Drivers seems successfully installed with the installer on needrom.com. Only the point I found is that when you plug Ulefone S8 pro

after click 'Download' button on Flash_Tool, better detection is expected if you keep pressing the Vol Down button

of the smartphone then connect the USB plug.

I am now V3.02, yes you can go to V3.03 but a post on needrom.com says there is some problem with V3.03. If the

problem will be solved, I will go to V3.03 (or V3.04 at that time?).
[Security Discussion] Napfgeist:
OK, good to see that you solved the problem by using latest version of flashtool.

What I am facing on both versions is following.

Scheduled On/Off does not work when the phone is connected at charger.

I am using this feature with the phone is connected at the charger to automatically switch on/off during night.

On all my old Android 6.0 devices this works great. However in the Ulefone S8 Pro the scheduled On/Off does work only when the timer is set at arround 1h. Setting up to 8h and connecting to the charger, the phone does not wake up and switch on.

It seems to be a problem of the Doze, battery mode of Android 7.0.

Can someone try this feature?

Thank you.

Hello Diomorgan

Where did you get v3.05 from?

I searched in needrom.com and they only have v3.02 & 3.03...

Official site has only v3.01.

[Security Discussion] Diomorgan:
Just search software info->software update in settings.I'm on 304 (will post screenshoot if I can) I've been asked to upgrade to 305, but I was able to root the phone (and maybe it's even a bootloader check, since there is no custom recovery, if only magisk would hide the root to the updater, but it's not in the list).On 19 I have another update with final 305, and I was pretty bothered not to be able to update even if I have the stock recovery, but somehow the update app found I'm rooted.I'm pretty sure it was 305, since I'm on 304, but now it says I'm rooted and has last update...(maybe they removed the 305 due to bugs?)

the circle says "sistem is up to date", and under the firmware version: etcetcetcetc... 3.04.

Maybe I was drunk (I'm joking I don't drink alchool at all...) but for a few days and the 19th that I wrote the post the update says there were a 3.05 but after download it says "phone roted can't upgrade"...

By the way is really sad we have not a working TWRP for this phone (all the article refer to S9Plus then they post other versione, or version that bootloop...), otherwise we can make flashable .zip and do TWRP backup.

For me is a nice ultra-inexpensive phone with 4 batteries bought, 2 sims and micro SD all separated.Nice for summer (not for picture:( ) as backup phone and a nice hotspot, cheaper then the big branded ones.

Plz help me im begging you
[Security Discussion] IronRoo:
I don't have this phone but think they may update system apps silently in the background, so you may have new version which passes AV check.

You can use the following app to check against multiple AV engines via virustotal and submit the new file for analysis if it has not already been submitted.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.funnycat.virustotal

(it's NOT a realtime antivirus app, so does not run in the background like a normal anti virus, it is manual activated each time)
[Security Discussion] wasp09:
Ah, it's not a realtime check. It looks like it is pulling reports from a database somewhere. There are no reports on the sound recorder. However it shows reports on many apps including google. Yes, google is definitely spying on us. :)

Not sure who to believe anymore. Thanks anyway.

Because Microsoft sopped paying attention.

I think there may be no other way than playing with DeviceTargetingInfo registrys.

I have an idea [I don't know whether it works and never tried nor it may be a good idea, ;) try at your own risk] - Deleting the This PC\Windows phone\Phone\Data\PROGRAMDATA\SOFTWAREDISTRIBUTION\ Download folder so that updates don't even get downloaded on device. Also you may not even get cumulative updates or will be able to install language packs as they go through Windows Update path.

Or you may manually delete the files inside that download folder.

Moreover, I have 2 emails accounts, the first one on the Exchange server of my company and le second one on Yahoo (imap protocol). In booth cases, there is no synchronization between folders "sent" on the servers and on the device. Is it normal or is it a problem on Active Sync or on the servers?

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Szkirp:
Hello, I am traveling internationally and have decided to use Wifi Calling to avoid getting charged for international calls.

I turned on wifi calling in the settings and went through the automated setup, and in settings it shows that wifi calling is on, however the wifi calling symbol in the top notification/pull down bar shows that wifi calling is off.

Obviously this makes things very confusing, and I don't know how to tell if calls being made are being made on wifi or if I am being charged per minute on the calls that I make?

Thank you for any help you can provide.

Notes: so far I have restarted the phone, used Sprint's reset to factory settings, updated PRL and Profile multiple times, however the symbol still shows that wifi calling is off while settings state wifi calling is on.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] smegger2:
You'll get a little telephone icon in the bar across the top of the screen to the right hand side. When you see that, wifi calling is active and calls are going through that.

The thing with wifi calling is that it can be enabled, but it'll only fully turn on when signal drops below a set point. On earlier firmwares you could just go into airplane mode and enable wifi to force it over, but the latest firmware broke that workaround.
