[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bing gordon:
I have a SM-G920F and one day the imei went 3500000000006. This made the phone go "No Network" and no sim would work in it. I then proceeded to repair (not change) the imei to its original imei as stamped on the back with numerous files and fixes to the point I am now abit lost.

The phone is now on Factory Binary bband vers G920FXXU6ERC1 BUILD NUMBER LRX22.FA50_G920FXXU6ARC1 and after reseting the EFS the imei is back to 350000000000006 / 02.

I have tried to "repair" the imei to back to its original imei but which I could do before but now I just get:-

Waiting ADB device... OK

Reading phone info...

Model: SM-G920F

Android version: 5.0.2

Checking Super user right... true

Reading NV data... OK

Checking NV data... error

Security damaged (1)

The imei above is not mine that just appears when I try to repair the phone but *#06# says 350000000000005 / 02 and no S/N. The only FW the phone will flash with is

G920FXXU6ERF5_G920FDBT6ERF1_G920FXXU6ERF6_HOME.tar (BTU) using samfirm and the factory binary thats on it at the mo , all the rest fail in Odin.

Is the phone bricked or is it sw repairable ?. If it is repairable could someone please point me to the correct files that I would need and which program/s do I use and the order I flash the phone with the files ?. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. I have spent the best part of a week reading up and flashing the phone but I'm now at the point were I honestly don't know which files , programs to use and in which order. Any help files or links, guides would be greatly appreciated.

P.S. just to make it clear the phone is not blocked it seems it just got corrupted somewere along the line and I am trying to restore the imei back to it's original imei not change it in any way shape or form and hopefully fix the "No Network" which is stopping any sim from been used.

Thanks for that , I did try it but still the same. I think mines a deeper problem , something to do with a corrupt EFS or NV_DATA.bin. which files and how you repair it I think is my problem

Hi, I'm really intersted in buying the Xiaomi Mi 8. The only thing that bothers me is the pretty low speaker volume.

I noticed that there is a mod to increase the speaker volume:

https://xdaforums.com/mi-8/themes/mod-speaker-headphones-volume-boost-t3828314

Does it really work? Is it really louder and noticeable?

I thougt about buying he pocophone f1 instead which has a louder skpeaker but I afraid that the IPS screen instead of AMOLED is not good enough.

Thanks!

Once you leave the range that Bluetooth works you will get a vibration on your watch and if you look at it, it will show that it's disconnected. That should be enough unless you just have numb wrists and can't feel anything.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] vsamadi:
My Xperia C6802 stuck in boot loop so I decided to flash it using Flash Tool.

I've downloaded official ROM files using XperiFirm and then I've made an .FTF file out of that image file.

However when trying to flash my phone it prompts and fsc file is required to complete flashing.

Looking around the net, I understood to create fsc script, I need to repair same phone model using official Sony PC Companion and log its USB transactions to extract fsc file.

This will lead to loss of all data on my phone so I want to know:

1-Does any one have .fsc script for Xperia Z Ultra C6802?

2- Besides, how can I flash my phone without losing my data?

Greetings!

Newbie here. Having some problems with my O2 XDA IIi trying to use Activesync with my laptop and desktop through USB. I got it traded with my other phone. Anyway, I connected my XDA with both my desktop and laptop but it doesn't recognize it. Its saying "Unknown Device" and Window XP cannot find a driver for it or something like that. Although, it has an icon of a "Mobile Device" both on my PC but I can't explore it. Anyway here are the steps I have taken so far.

Steps Taken:

- Already did try different USB ports from both Laptop and Desktop all running on USB 2.0 several times - no good;

- Uninstalled and reinstalled Activsync 4.5 and 4.1 and hard reset XDA several times - no good;

- I borrowed my fiancee's O2 XDA IIi and used her cradle and it worked with both my Laptop and Desktop;

- Used my cradle with her O2 XDA IIi and it worked as well on both pc;

- Now that I have isolated the issues from desktop, laptop and cable; I know its my XDA; :(

Here are some info about my O2 XDA IIi:

- ROM Version: 2.06.00WWE

- ROM Date: 06/14/04

- Radio Version: 1.18.00

- Protocol Version: 1337.38

- ExtROM Version: Xda2JoJo.v3.2zS

I know Alpine's are good Pocket PC and I just need to know how to troubleshoot it. It can be my powerful device to date if I just can sync it with my PC in order to have those unwanted programs from the ExtROM. I got the procedures to Flash the ROM and everything from this site and I know you guys are the best people to help me with this issue. It has something to do with my XDA. Its working fine but I just need to sync it with my PC in order for me to sync information between them. It maybe just a file or a driver for it to work. Tried several sites but no info about my issue.

I hope I have given you all the info you need. Please I'm desperate to ask for any assistance from you guys.

Thanks in advance!
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] Frank Versloot:
i don't think rom version 2.06.00 is an Alpine ROM

As far as I Know the Alpine is at version 1.11.000 WWW and the radio is at most 1.04.00
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] Stone-Cold Angel:
I'm not sure if its an Alpine or a Himalaya. But it should be an Alpine if its an O2 XDA IIi, is it? Or do I have a Himalaya. Either way, can it be the issue I'm having because of the wrong ROM version.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] Frank Versloot:
i think it's a Himalaya running Windows Mobile 5, 6 or 6.1

Yup. its the pins alright! Got it fixed already by a local XDA technician. He got it resolved. Upgrading it to WM5 already. Sorry for the wrong post mine's an XDA II or a himalaya.

Hi I'm interested in buying the Xiaomi Mi 8 or the Pocophone F1. The Xiaomi Mi 8 has a low volume speaker which bothers me. Instead the pocophone has an IPS screen and not AMOLED as the Mi 8 does. How is the Pocophone screen? Is it that bad at daylight?

Thanks!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] WingXBlade:
Personally it's manageable even under bright daylight.

If compare it to amoled screens, the poco f1 definitely falls short in terms of saturation and videos don't look as pleasing to the eye on the poco f1.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] CosmicDan:
Don't spread rumors.

The kernel source is incomplete, Wifi and Sound needs to be fixed. It will take time, and people are working on it. I already fixed wifi on my kernel fork but fixing sound is a whole other problem.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] rob!n:
That's great. Thank you. But why did poco bragg about releasing sources.. whats the point of releasing them incomplete. So much for supporting custom community.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Dharmik Jain:
Just wait for some months & the custom rom development will be great. I mean it will be similar to zenfone max pro m1, note 5 pro etc. Bcz of the popularity of the device. The more people will buy the phone, the more developers want to make official custom roms for the device.

Xiaomi, Oneplus & premium phones of different companies get custom roms bcz of their popularity. So poco f1 will have a big custom rom development community with almost every official custom rom. Peace.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] CosmicDan:
It's basically how it has always been for custom kernels from everyone. Linux kernel itself is free and open, yes, but the DRIVERS for the Wifi and DAC/DSP stuff may not be.

I'd sooner blame Qualcomm than Xiaomi tbh, sure they make good hardware but Qcom are notoriously shady with business practices.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] shailendra1993:
Because those drivers are proprietary codes, most companies don't want their sources to be released/leaked in public, so you need to fix it by your own. Torvalds had even shown Nvidia a middle finger for that in public but they are not alone. The bigger a company, more they are away from FSF (except few).

Xiaomi released what it could and they always release half codes, sometimes they gobble up camera, sometimes wifi or whatever they feel like. Most of the Xiaomi phones will not have the same camera output as it were in MIUI because of this.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] rob!n:
Oh. So behind every custom rom for any device, dev has to work a lot to make it stable or even to get the rom into existence.

Respect...

Hey,

I didn't updated my phone for quite some time and today I had some free time and I decided to update it to the latest version. I performed the first OTA update, and the process wen't really smooth. The phone booted after a few minutes, however it told me there's another system updated so I installed it as well.

However, after installing the second OTA update, my phone never booted again. it stucks in bootloop for a few minutes and then just boots to recovery.

I don't really know what to do, and although most of my data is backed up I really want to avoid wiping all the data.

The phone was never rooted and has stock recovery. How can I make it boot without wiping all the data? I did try to wipe cache already and it didn't help.

I see that there is a method called 'adb sideload' but I want to be sure it doesn't wipe data and to know which zip I should give it... Thanks!
