hi guys, im looking for a external antenna for my kaiser, for a better 3g reception since I have only 1 or 2 bars in my house, sometimes even change to gprs, so I would like to know if someone is selling one or where can I buy one, preferable with metod to pay by western union since I don't have paypal, any help would be great.

tks in advance greets

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] _DrG_:
I have an external gsm antenna that i bought for my SPV e100 and c500, used it a couple of times worked very well, but then orange stuck a antenna up a few roads away from me which sorted the problem, id have to see if it is the same fitment for the kaiser, i assume it is as they all seem to have the standard gsm antenna port in the kaiser its next to the gps one. Its still in the original bag it came in and it as new if you want to buy it off me... i paid £30 for it.... offers.... if your interested in it ill dig it out and test it on my kaiser.. let me know

*EDIT: After closer inspection, the antenna i have only fits the gps connection on the kaiser, it does improve the gps a hell of a lot but it does not fit the gsm connection, so ill withdraw my sale*

Does anybody know what type of connector HTC uses for their handsets? I have a Vox and am looking to buy a pigtail so I can use my external antenna.

Some close up pictures of the connector would be very useful, thanks.

would this help? The t-mob signal in my hizouse is CRAP! there is a RO with A Voda radio that will work on my Vario...would this potentialy increase my signal
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dskeeles:
There's a close-up here.

Can anyone advise for sure what kind of connector this is? I've bought a 11dB antenna on ebay (believe it has an SMB connector), and need to find an adapter to try to connect it to my Kaiser.

I've checked the FCC report, Wikipedia, HTC, etc. but no joy.

[General Paranoid Android Discussion] MTomic2003:
I am looking forward to flash some custom ROM (official and supported one) on my Xperia X Compact. I was surfing around the web what happened to Paranoid Android ROMs, because I remember seeing articles and XDA posts about them... I did hear there was a slowdown in development in 2015 or 2016, but there was no activity today in 2018 that I'm aware of...

So, what's the state of the project? Is it alive? Or dead?

Thanks in advance!

P.S. I'm sorry for a dramatic name of the thread... I'm just curious :)

I have Magisk installed and decided to try out some of the modules for it but could never get them to update it said on all that they would update on next reboot, well after several reboots nothing. I clicked on the little garbage can to delete and they wouldn't delete?? I ended up having to uninstall magisk to get rid of them and had to reinstall magisk to get root back.. Any one else have any problems with the modules??
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] skywalker-live:
I had a similar problem. It took multiple reinstalls of magisk to get it working, hang in there you'll get it working. That's just one of the issues with how this phone handles many different things. T-Mobile has had to issue updates to fix updates and that has potential to turn people away from an otherwise great piece of hardware. Hang in there you'll figure this phone out.

Out of curiosity, did you go through the full TWRP installation, or just use it to boot and install Magisk?

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] sparky_boi:
Hi guys,

Coming from a Google Pixel XL, I didn't bother rooting it because everything seemed to work right out of the box and being a stock android phone, I didn't feel the need to. Now that I have my v30, there seems to be so many customizable options (Android has come a long way with their software over the last few years!), which in the past few years would have needed root or custom rom to access.

My question is, since there are ports for things like the Google Camera app, substratum themes and other mods that work without root, what are the benefits of rooting this phone?

So far all I can think about is a better ad blocker and installing some speaker mods. Oh and F-droid was useful back in the day for Youtube Downloader - but don't need that since I have Youtube Red.

To me it doesn't seem worth it to void warranty for such small benefits, I could be wrong though, and I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts on other benefits of rooting/custom rom!
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] Saxithon:
I myself rooted my V30 in order to use Magisk and especially V4A, so if you like good sound then, you maybe should.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] bilbo60:
What's wrong with the sound without root?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Which V30 variant do you have? You seem to be from Australia. Do you have a V30 which can be rooted? Only two actual V30 can be rooted (European H930, North American open market US998); three if you're including the European "V30+" (H930G).

Yes, software has been optimized more since the early days of Android. Maybe there's less stuff that needs to be "fixed" -- and with Nova launcher/custom icon packs, etc, there's a lot that can be done without rooting. Also, Blokada for instance, is a good free ad blocker.

But TWRP custom recovery, Titanium Backup still give you power you don't have without root.

Some of the V30 custom ROMs do "fix" (or improve) the quad DAC, as well as some standalone audio mods (which require root). The ROMs may not "require" root, but they at least require unlocked bootloader and TWRP. So, you might as well root and get full benefit.

Nothing wrong with it, but v4a gives us the power to enhance the sound even further
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Well, nothing or possibly quite a lot -- depending on which model you have. [MENTION=9023361]Whiskeyomega[/MENTION] discovered some inconsistencies across V30/V30+ models that should not be there. But with root, you can fix it.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] sparky_boi:
Oh I had no idea that only a select few could be rooted. Mine is the dual sim variant (H930DS) which looks like it can't.

After reading the responses and doing a little bit more research, it seems to me there's not that many benefits for this phone except pushing the sound quality a little further. For me it's not worth losing warranty for just a few small improvements, so although it is quite saddening that I can't unlock the bootloader for the option to be able to root/custom rom - I think it's ok for this phone as it's already packed full of features and seems to check all the boxes.

Thanks heaps for the replies, I should've done my research to see if I could even root the phone before asking haha!
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] 20degrees:
Depends whom you might ask. Several of us have sound over Bluetooth issues. This has nothing to do with root though.

Do some serious research on this phone before you take the plunge. I'm not trying to hate, but in all honesty, my experience with this phone and its issues / lack of support / slow updates, makes me no longer a fan of LG.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] bilbo60:
I'm referring to wired sound with the DAC which I find to be fantastic. I have had no issues with the phone so far, but haven't tried Bluetooth for music. I'm also on Oreo.

Well, if you root, you can have Oreo right now. ;)

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] DLS123:
I thought about rooting it too but decided it's not worth bothering with. There's nothing to improve on the sound so V4a is useless. I don't use any EQ, good headphones don't need it.

All the bloat can be uninstalled and all other annoyances I had could be fixed without root. Like Android resampling 16 bit 44.1 KHz to 48 KHz. Can be bypassed by bit padding all the flacs to 24 bit.

Au contraire. There is something to improve the sound:

https://xdaforums.com/lg-v30/themes/whiskeyomegas-v30-sound-mods-t3757115

Besides these standalone mods, some of this is implemented in at least two stock-based ROMs.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] bilbo60:
Chazz,

Would you describe your experiences using that sound mod. Thanks
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] DLS123:
There isn't. I don't think what that dude says is accurate. The HiFi DAC is always on if toggled, it's not dependent on triggering high impedance mode.

I can turn it on with low impedance headphones, I can hear the difference, it's been measured and proven on Head-Fi too.

He probably broke something with the ROM he used then he had to fix.

The only case when forcefully enabling high impedance mode might be useful is when using low impedance inefficient IEMs that require lots of power. I'm not using such things.

Hello guys,

as the title says, I want to unlock my Redmi 5 Plus and load LineageOS, but I'm stuck.

I was approved and this morning I received the text message confirmation that says "Permissions have been granted ...", but when I go to "Mi Unlock Status" and touch "Add account and device" i receive this error code: 86006.

These are my iphone info

upload pictures

I tried with 5 different VPNs, and restarted many times but nothing worked.

I read around that probably i have to wait 72 hours in order to unlock my device, is this correct?

Anyway any kind of help is really appreciated.

Thanks

:)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers] aabenroi:
86006 is not connection issue, its a server issue...

VPN issue is error 10008 :)

try to flash developer rom, if the problem persist then welcome to the dead-end.

We're users from Indonesia, we've tried every possible method including tearing phone, short the circuit, test-point, etc...

It all end with either 86023 or 86006 error. We've got reply from official xiaomi Indonesia that stated the bootloader can't be unlocked anymore on official phone. It's weird because we're not bound to any specific carrier.

The only real solution is just to sell official phone and buy illegal unofficial phone from third-party reseller.

hopefully people at other countries still can unlock their phone :)

Sooo... I got into bootloop trying to install Xposed on rooted 8.1 Official. Aaand I have a pattern lock on.... oops

Is there a way to disable Xposed from ADB, or boot (tried the button press thing, I get the two vibes, but not the rest)?

OR

is there a way to decrypt /data with my pattern without being able to boot? (I can boot into twrp or stock recovery and run ADB commands)

OR

is a data wipe my only option?
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] tech_head:
Wipe is not your only option.

You should be able to flash the stock 8.1 boot image and start over.

Xposed and Magisk require a patched boot image.

Go to the ROM section and download the 8.1 official and flash the boot to both boot_a and boot_b.

It should boot normally just no rooted.

From the moment I saw it running on an Xperia (Which was designed for Android)I reaaaallly wanted to have it on my J320F.I started digging and saw that it is fairly easy to port..Then,I rememberd that i have Literally 0% Knowledge in Development.

Its easyer to use mr google to find a new GPS software then change the imei, and i dont think u can do that at all, the net is full of softwares... just pick one;)
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] schaggo:
No, the IMEI is not hardcoded into the device. It can be overwritten/changed but its a very dangerous process and if you're not an absolute pro you'll most likely brick your device. And this would be a final brick, not recoverable.

Appart from that: it's absolutely illegal in most countrys in the world. I actually don't know a single country where it isn't. In the countries I know the punishment wouldn't just be a fine but definitifely prison. And even if it's legal in your country, if you'd enter another country with a modded device you'd be guilty if caught at the border.

In the end it's easier to get a pirated copy of a GPS software including maps for your region, activators, keygens and cracks, all that USING GOOGLE ONLY, than changing your IMEI.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] Spamkit:
I've never programmed for WinCE but on WinNT I would go the following way:

1. Read MSDN to get an idea where from IMEI is to be obtained (I don't think every user space application reads hw registers, there should be some interfacing library (dll) which provides required functions).

2. Look for articles on dll injection (google for this trick) on WinCE.

3. Build custom dll providing all but IMEI query functions tunneled from original dll, IMEI retrival functions should be handled by your library, providing preprogrammed constants to user level app.

4. Program dll injector for putting hook into the specific app.
