I have a regular S8 (950U), most FRP bypass for these devices require the ADB FRP.bat to be run between the combination firmware and the normal firmware are installed, at which part is the FRP actually being removed/bypassed here?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] giorgosperi:
I m trying also the same. I installed the combination. The frp is off now but i can't find the right stock rom. The phone has bootloader level 4. From where you got the stock rom? Whatever i tried i got an error binary 4>1.

I have the G955U AT&T.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] JeffDC:
If this process works smothly, it sure beats the method of http://www.techoxygen DOT COM /bypass-factory-reset-protection-on-samsung-galaxy-phone/

I found, for me with the above process, an easier method to get onto the internet by using a Bose headphone with a mic, and when at the initial login/setup page, which FRP then requires you knowing the login info, pressing a Bose headphone button brought up a prompt for voice command, and at that point say chrome or google and you are on the internet to get the two files you will need in the solution. After setting up the several apps, then you are able to enter the (your Google email) 'login', and on re-boot the FRP will be gone, using your initial 'login'. Done

The flashing method is more direct and less hassle.

SUCCESS on g930f. Thank you so much. By the way... I had the newest fw with september patch installed.

Flashed the G930FXXS3ERHD

Flashed Combination file COMBINATION_FA60_G930FXXU3ARI2_CL7964511_QB19635501_REV00_user_mid_noship

Let Boot up.

Perform a factory reset in Settings.

Flash G930FXXS3ERHD (AP, BL, CP) (got fail message after trying to flash CSC or HOME_CSC)

Worked like a charm. Thank you so much.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] charter3554:
So which did you flash, the regular CSC or home CSC?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] spittfire:
Just the AP, BL and CP.

After booting in Oreo i entered my gmail account, Flashed another time with AP, BL, CP, and CSC, made a cache wipe and a factory Reset.

Can you make a step-by-step howto for G930F?

I've flashed PHN-G930FXXS3ERHD completely, Oreo boots up

Then what?

When i set the COMBINATION file in AP and flash it. It shows a FAIL in Odin and (BOOTLOADER) on the S7 screen.

When i set the COMBINATION file in AP, the G930FXXS3ERHD BL and CP files it also shows a FAIL in Odin and (BOOTLOADER) on the S7 screen.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] aleph930623:
Usually, the part where the frp reset go to OFF is when you make the factory reset operation from inside the combination firmware.

Later that, you flash the stock rom and u get frp protection removed.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Letlive:
I keep getting the fuse 5 binary 1 issue...I downloaded the latest firmware with samfirm and used your combination file. now I cant flash anything at some point I was getting "UPLOAD MODE" where all of the screen was black...so this is what I did I used the combination file it gave me the binary factory I changed oem to unlock and put on debug mode I clicked erase it started and it stoppped and rebooted so I just went ahead with download mode anyways, I have been trying to get the latest ODIN to work past this step and I cant. I keep trying different firmware for my SNAP G955U but I get setupconnection for a while then it does something and fails.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] paulsonmcreilly:
FYI - This still works in 2022. You will need to find another source for the combination rom and factory rom (I used samfw). I used the search on IMEI function to be sure I downloaded the correct files. There was a handy youtube video about bypassing the FRP on the S8/S8+ that cleared up any uncertainty for me. The downloads and unzipping were the longest parts of the process.

Thanks to nitec0re for posting this tutorial!

[Huawei P10 Lite Questions & Answers] Azzureux:
Well. It's easy. You open every app and look in it for updates. Or you try to do a factory reset.

But you must keep in mind that apps updated for a device don't necessary update at same time on all devices.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] lassykk:
Hi

I bought a MDA Vario last week and installed Ftouchflo v4.1 and Slithers SCPLC++ Cube and it appears to have messed up my Start Menu.

I have a white start menu with just icons on it when I open up the start menu and no names beside the icons. Also the start menu is much longer than usual with icons repeated 3 or 4 times.

I uninstalled Ftouchflo and deleted the cube application, did numerous soft resets and still no joy. I also saw in another thread that installing the large start menu fixes the problem but it didn't for me as the links on the large start menu didn't work properly

Has anyone got a fix for this? can i replace the start menu with something else that will fix this problem?

also if i do a hard reset to eliminate the problem will my phone be simlocked again? it was originally locked to t-mobile and I don't want it to be simlocked to that again.

Any help would be greatly appreciated
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Audio:
Hard resets shouldn't lock your phone again. Especially if you've flashed to a different ROM.

As for your start menu problem, try Quick Menu (attached).

I always use this on any ROM I use, it's miles better than the start menu that comes with WM, and there's loads of options too. Give it a go, and see if this solves your start menu issue.

No install required, simply unzip the folder to your phone/SD card and run the .exe
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] lassykk:
thanks very much.

I am still running the original rom at the moment... i'm tenative about flashing a new rom as this is my first WM phone (coming from a SE W950) so its a big knowledge leap for me so i'm just installing apps one by one. I won't hard reset just yet

I'll try the alternative start menu you attached this evening as i can't use active sync on my office computer. thanks again for replying so quickly
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DaveShaw:
The White Start Menu is a bug in the cube 51 version, supposed to be fixed when 52 is released. It is because of the plus (+) symbols in the recent programs list.

Try clearing this (http://www.pocketpcfaq.com/raj/ClearRecent.html)

The enlarge start menu Cab will be in the Dev and Hacking forum in the extracted HTC cabs thread.

Thanks

Dave

Generic white Icons in start menu

I have a weird issue with the start menu on the Tilt, All the apps that I have installed to the memory card and have pinned to the start menu appear with the generic white icon. I never had this problem with the 8525.

I know some people say to never install apps to the memory card but the apps work fine just the start menu icon is the problem.

On occasion, the icons will show as normal then go back to generic white. I'm sure it all has something to do with being installed on the memory card.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Casey Walt:
Hello everyone. I have had my pixel 2 xl for about 3 weeks now. I love this phone except for one bug. At random times my phone would loose lte connectivity for no reason (while still showing full bars and lte). Digging deeper i have found that when my phone connects to aws band 4 i loose all internet connectivity. I used network signal guru to dissable band 4 and band 66 this "fixes" my issue. Obviously i would like that extra capacity band since it is in use in my area(Pittsburgh pa). Does anyone else have this issue? Is it tower related? Phone related? This also happend on stock and custom roms flashing the stock image both times. Thanks for any help!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] THEGAMEPLAY94:
Is this isolated to one area? Possibly connecting to the same tower? It sounds more like a network issue.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Casey Walt:
It does not seem isolated. It has happened in multiple places which is why i disabled the band entirely. If it was one tower wouldn't the whole tower be down and not just a certain band?
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Guides, News, & Discussion] Fahim Ferdoush:
Hello Mi fans,

Xiaomi is very concerned about the issue of upgrading Android O that everyone cares about at present.The MIUI developers have already sent R&D staff to the relevant adaptation team and they hope to help you solve the problems encountered at an early date.

The latest developments (7.18 update):

1. After nearly two weeks of efforts Mi 5s was able to upgrade Android O's ultrasonic fingerprint technology to find a feasible solution. At present Xiaomi R&D team cooperates with Qualcomm R&D experts to start intense development and adaptation work. During this period more underlying code changes are involved. To ensure stability related work may last for a period of time. The estimated upgrade time is November. MIUI developers are doing their utmost to complete this adaptation work as soon as possible.

2. After active communication, the technical difficulties of the Mi 5s Plus model dual camera module have found a feasible solution. The Xiaomi R&D team and the Qualcomm dual camera module teams are working overtime. Since the underlying code part needs more adjustments.It is expected that the upgrade time will be in early October and MIUI developers will speed up the progress to complete the adaptation work as soon as possible!

MIUI developers also understand the eagerness of everyone to upgrade Android O. Because the ultrasonic fingerprint module and the dual camera module are supported by Qualcomm.They actively researched the solution together with Qualcomm as originally planned. At present there are some progress but there is no final conclusion. After a clear conclusion, developers will announce the public in the forum for the first time.

There have been rumors that the Mi 5s/Mi 5s Plus is an ODM model recently! These two mobile phones are Mi self-developed models and they are not ODM models as well as will not allow other manufacturers to adapt.

bump, still no joy here.

I managed to get code using AlphaBlend to compile, but I can't seem to get it to work, I just get nothing.

Does anyone have an example of usage of AlphaBlend in native code? Does it do per-pixel alpha? I just want to be able to overlay PNG icons that have semitransparent pixels on a background...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] robp:
What exactly happens when you run your code?

I've successfully used AlphaBlend in managed code with P/Invoke so it should certainly work in unmanaged code. What parameters are you passing? The CE version of AlphaBlend doesn't support all of the flags that the desktop version supports. Could you paste the line of code where you call AlphaBlend?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] thenext1:
To achieve alpha blending, first I create a DC (device context), then create a DIB section and select it into the DC... this is the only way I know to directly edit a bitmap in memory:

BITMAPINFO bi;
DWORD *pimg;
HBITMAP bitmap;
HDC hdcout = CreateCompatibleDC(NULL);
ZeroMemory(&bi.bmiColors, 4);
bi.bmiHeader.biClrImportant=bi.bmiHeader.biClrUsed=0;
bi.bmiHeader.biBitCount = 32;
bi.bmiHeader.biCompression = BI_RGB;
bi.bmiHeader.biXPelsPerMeter = bi.bmiHeader.biYPelsPerMeter = 3780;
bi.bmiHeader.biSizeImage = 0;
bi.bmiHeader.biHeight = YourVerticalSize;
bi.bmiHeader.biWidth = YourHorizontalSize;
bi.bmiHeader.biPlanes = 1;
bi.bmiHeader.biSize = sizeof(BITMAPINFOHEADER);
bitmap = CreateDIBSection(hdcout, &bi, DIB_RGB_COLORS, (void**)&pimg, NULL, NULL);
SelectObject(hdcout, bitmap);

Then I have the pointer to the raw pixels in pimg, and I copy the pixels there in a 0xAABBGGRR ordering (or the inverse, I don't remember very well).

Then I use that DC with AlphaBlend, specifying the last parameter as follows:

BLENDFUNCTION alphaNormal = {AC_SRC_OVER, 0, 0xFF, AC_SRC_ALPHA};

thjis always worked for me, and doesn't require all that COM boilerplate floating around
