Why you didn't shared before?
[General Questions and Answers] skeleton1911:
Because it's useless.

What do you want to do , after you unlock the bootloader?

It's not possible to have partitions permissions or root the device after bootloader is unlocked

I've read here

https://forums.androidcentral.com/h...oader-custom-recovery-root-flashing-roms.html

That you can only root and flash custom ROMs if the bootloader is unlocked.

May be you've more knowledge but then I'm wondering why you have unlocked the bootloader 2weeks ago?
[General Questions and Answers] skeleton1911:
Yes , I used the unlocked bootloader to try some things with adb.

For now it is useless because we don't have the firmware etc.

But unlock is true for most devices using Qualcomm .

I must admit that I am not sure if we have to unlock the bootloader to flash a custom recovery or a custom Rom.

But I know that elephone devices (in the past) didnt need it.

Maybe here it's the same for the first Qualcomm device.

It's how elephone made the bootloader security..

As we don't have root ,I can not check all these things.

By the way.

I tried to root the device with "dr.fone Wondershare" :D

This tool can root some 660 snapdragons.

I had to choose a motorrolla device with the same sdm660 .

Haha. But after the first reboot of the phone , I cancelled the root process. Because if something is different (and there must be something different) then i would have a bricked phone...

At the end there is nothing we can do without the firmware or the boot.img,

That boot.img would be enough to root it...

Hope they will release the stock base soon :)

someone know if with polararized sunglasses the screen is black or you're able to see it? For example on Huawey P10 or some honor device the screen became black if you see with polarized sunglassess

When i use this screen with polarized sunglasses there is rainbow affect but i think that is due to cheap screen protector that came with the phone. But it is visible.

it's the first time i see a "secondary brand" using snapgradon and a great amoled, but at the actual price meh...... the right price could be about 250usd not the actual 400/450usd
[General Questions and Answers] Laptapper:
I've searched to make a copy or backup of boot.img and I've found this possibility:

the simplest way is to log into adb shell and run

Quote:

dd if=/dev/mtd/mtd2 of=/sdcard/boot.img

and then exit adb and run

Quote:

adb pull /sdcard/boot.img boot.img

this assumes that your boot is on mtd2 (run: cat /proc/mtd on the device to determine right partition)

What do you think? Perhaps it's possible to get the boot.img?

I've never worked so deep in Android and I don't wanna brick it. May be you're able to get the solution?
[General Questions and Answers] skeleton1911:
Don't work

For "dd" we need root permissions. Because of the encryption . The system is closed , no matter what code we use.

I am very familiar with ADB and Android/Linux.

If it would be possible, I already made it.

Current Setup

1. Hard-SPL-240-MFG.exe

2. titan_radio_3.27.00.exe

3. dcd_titan_kitchen_2.3.2.rar

Everthing works with some data issues when downloading large files due to a but in the titan_radio_3.27.00.exe (I can live with it).

The problem is when I partnership the Titan with the Holux 240 GPS external Bluetooth GPS it does not connect. I can see the device but never can connect, Yes I use the standard 0000 passcode. Other Bluetooth devices ie my headset Moto N700 and car head unit Sony BT-2500, audio and hands free all work. I'll be travelling to an area with no Digital service and would like to use the GPS with Navigation software.

When I restore the original TELCOM ROM, I have no problems with Holux 240, Moto N700 and Sony BT-2500. When I connect I see a serial port as a list service.

Some threads talk about a fix for the Bluetooth stack? nueROM or Dogguy in PPCGeek.

Another item to be noted. With Bluethooth A2DP headsets, if I connect once do I have the reconnect to the device again? The Sony BT-2500 pairs with with Titan (any CE ROM) but I need to resave the audio everytime.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] drew826:
I haven't tried my Holux GPSlim 240 with any of the new ROMs yet, but I'll try to remember to give it a shot when I got off work.

I'm curious though - why would you want to use external GPS when you can use the one built into the phone? My Titan's GPS seems to be more accurate than my Holux 240. You don't need digital service to use the GPS, unless you're using Google Maps or some other program that downloads maps on the fly. If you already have a navigation program with maps, just use the built-in GPS.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] hlouie:
I thought the GPS chip in the Titan was a gpsOne that uses digital cellular signal from the towers to triangulates your position.

From phonenews.com

Installing this update will enable GPS to function inside your HTC Titan. It enables the gpsOne chipset in your device to function as a standard GPS device, compatible with Windows Mobile 5 & 6 GPS applications, including Google Maps, Windows Live for Mobile, and navigation software such as TomTom Navigator. Keep in mind that gpsOne is not autonomous GPS, you will need to have home network coverage in order to maintain a GPS lock.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] popdog54:
I posted about this same problem with my Holux 1200. The internal GPS always takes 5+ minutes to connect for me no matter where I am or what I use to juimp start it, so there are times when I'd want to use my external receiver for a quick connection. When setting up my receiver I set the outgoing COM port to 0. Then from the external GPS settings I try to set the GPS hardware port to 0 also, but the setting doesn't stick. It always reverts back to the default which is none. Some people have told me that they never set the GPS hardware port, but I always had to previously to use my GPS receiver. Now with the internal GPS enabled I can't.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] hlouie:
Found some more information

gpsOne can operate in 4 modes:

Standalone - Your handset has no connection to the network, and uses only the GPS satellite signals it can currently receive to try and establish a location.

MS Based - Your handset is connected to the network, and uses the GPS signals + a location signal from the network.

MS Assisted - Your handset is connected to the network, uses GPS signals + a location signal then relays its 'fix' to the server, which then uses the signal strength from your phone to the network towers to further plot your position. You can still maintain voice communication in this scenario, but not 'Internet/Network service' ie Web Browser, IM, streaming TV etc..

MS Assisted/Hybrid - Same as above, but network functionality remains. Normally only in areas with exceptional coverage.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ciaduck0:
I got a T-Mobile S6 from a friend, and I'm trying to do whatever I can to enable using it on AT&T. I think a custom ROM might be nice, but I'm stuck on this CSC business.

It was weirdly flashed before, so I flashed it back to stock using Odin and a recent image from sammobile.

The image was G920TUVU5FQG3_G920TTMB5FQG3_TMB

Device: SM-G920T

Android Verson: 7.0

Baseband: G920TUVU5FQG3

Kernel Version:

3.10.61-11187574

dpi@SWDG4706 #1

Any advice is appreciated. I'm confident enough to flash TWRP and other things on the phone. (I've done some NAND hacking in my day.)

I'm just lacking some concise instruction/direction.

I assume I need to

1) Flash TWRP using Odin

2) Root the phone by flashing SuperSU or Magisk

3) Flash AT&T compatible ROM using TWRP

What am I missing with the CSC stuff? Do I need files from somewhere? When I tried to go through the install for "Ultimate Nougat 2.0" I got stuck on the which CSC, because it didn't appear to have a CSC compatible with AT&T/USA.

The goal is to use this phone on AT&T, hopefully with a decent debloated ROM that is as close to native google android as possible and doesn't have any vendor nonsense.

Thank you for your time.

Some people said this mod worked, but it was unstable and unusable for my GS unit.

Another is to install Malaysk ROM.

https://xdaforums.com/android-auto/...-malaysk-roms-px5-2-4-gb-8-0-android-t3762724

This worked for my GS, but the cold startup time doubled, the overheating problem also got worse.

But I want you to remember. Our Chinese android unit was originally backdoor open.

Using the terminal emulator, enter the following command...

setprop persist.adb.tcp.port 5555
setprop sys.rkadb.root 1

Once restarted, you can delete, add, or change system files via wi-fi adb.

So I returned to stock ROM, deleted bloatware via adb, modified the build.prop add custom apk and used it.

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] warata:
No, only Wi-Fi adb can be used. I do not know how to USB debug.

By inputting the command with the terminal emulator and restarting it, you can make adb connection via wi-fi from the PC on the same network.

However, it may need to enable USB debugging for developer options.

If people need an instructions I will make it in a few days.

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] warata:
ADB via Wi-Fi You can edit system files with stock ROM

setprop persist.adb.tcp.port 5555
setprop sys.rkadb.root 1

Enter the above command with the terminal emulator. I learned this content at 4pda(Thanks to booroondooks).

But you may not be able to use virtual keyboard(AOSP) to enter the command.If so, please use another keyboard or connect a USB keyboard.

Restart and check the HU's IP address.

(Settings, Networks, Wi-Fi, and tap the connected network)

adb kill-server
adb connect ##.##.##.##

Open a command prompt as an administrator on a PC connected to the same network and enter the above command.(##.##.##.## is your HU's IP address)

If you see the message"connected to ##.##.##.##:5555", you are connected successfully.

If not, restart PC and HU and try again.

"ADB ROOT"

This command is necessary to run adb with administrator privileges.

adb root

"ADB REMOUNT"

This command is needed first to manipulate system files.

adb remount

"PULL"

You can download any files with this command.

adb pull

"PUSH"

You can upload any files with this command.

adb push

"CD"

Please change the directory before downloading the file. Android files should not be downloaded to the Windows system folder.

cd

"ADB SHELL"

You can operate the terminal emulator from the PC.

adb shell

"chmod"(emulator command)

This command can change the permissions of the system file.

chmod

***Very important***

The system file uploaded from the PC needs to give correct authority.

Most system apks require 644 privileges and will not work if they are missing.

Aiso build.prop needs 644. If you forget this, the system will be a brick.

"rm -rf "(emulator command)

You can delete system files with this command.

However, some system files may not work properly when deleted.

rm -rf

I am not an English speaker and I am not familiar with the unix commands. So from an advanced level I may be doing something useless or dangerous.But I tried all the contents introduced here with my own HU.I attached an example of command use as an image, so I want you to compensate for the missing explanation.

I would say I can't change to an boot animation in the setting

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] CaptShaft:
Mostly that is correct, there is a an option in the "factory settings" menu of the radio to change the boot animation to be one of any number of car manufacturer logos, or a static picture, as you said, but perhaps not a custom animation like you suggest.

Custom boot logos are touchy things, they have to be the proper size, proper resolution and cannot take up too much space. They have to be written to the system in the proper fashion, and if you overwrite into another part of the system you brick your unit and must recover.

You've heard of Project Treble, right?

https://www.xda-developers.com/project-treble-custom-rom-development/

https://www.xda-developers.com/how-project-treble-revolutionizes-custom-roms-android-oreo/

TWRP-type recovery with Project Treble currently allow you to flash a custom boot animation. Sadly, we don't have TWRP or Treble for these px5 units. Some people have gotten close, but no cigar, as we say.

Even with TWRP, I've heard of people bricking their phones after a custom bootanimation.zip flash, then they have to recover and re-flash the ROM. I had to restore one of these units after a failed root flashing attempt in Oreo and it took hours (sitting in a hot car, on a hot 38°C day) unit we were fully restored and back to where I wanted the OS to be. It can be done but if you screw up, or the animation isn't exactly perfect, you're in trouble.

So the short answer is, use the boot animations from that app or a similar app and be satisfied with that.
