[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] yoghibawono:
Set all three, like in my screenshot of mi5 settings. It is mainly the LGD's fault but xiaomi should at least give custom setting for those with the LGD panels. But to be honest imo, LGD is actually sharper & the color is better than JDI. If only there was no image retention issue

& no, it doesnt affect brightness in general only affect the color which is nothing significant but helps alot on my mi5 horrendous image retention.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] TLxda-d:
I have the stock rom, but I still don't understand how dimming each of the 3 base colors by the same amount should change anything. That should do the equivalent of "reduce brightness by 10%".
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] yoghibawono:
Changing brightness and changing the color calibration is clearly two different thing.

you can even try;

1. Download the App Twilight on the Playstore

2. Give all Permissions

3. Use the following settings:

Color Temperature: 1500K

Intensity: 5%

Screen Dim: 0%

Filter Times: Always

Or use Color changer pro adjust the RGB values to 220-230.

Try then question, you won't get solution.
[Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers] TLxda-d:
Changing all RGB values by the same amount keeps their ratio the same, thus it should (theoretically) keep the same color tone. 1,500k is reddish.

Hello altruists!

Could anyone who owns a Fossil Q Explorist Gen 4 give me the result of running the command below, please?

Hi,

Does anybody have any of these files:

patch0.xml

rawprogram0.xml

I have the prog_emmc_firehose_8996_ddr.mbn but only need these 2 xml files.

Problem that is.... I flashed the phone selecting the wrong firmware with LG Tools downgrading the phone to 10j and got stuck in qualcomm mode 9008

Anybody?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] cnjax:
Just a word of caution using a firehouse will most likely leave your phone in an undesirable state.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Phoenix591:
You're SOL, one of our devs tried several months ago with someone else who was bricked and still had no luck. Plus whatever firehose you found almost certainly won't work on an H918, you need one explicitly for the H918, and not any random other msm8996 phone.

I created the XML file to root by bricking and then flashing TWRP and the engineering aboot, but I have not created the XML files needed to completely reflash a phone (which is what you will need to do).

Let me know if you want to give it a try, and I will send you a link.

-- Brian

Yes please... I tried to generate XML files with Qualcomm Premium Pool but always run into errors with the PrimaryGPT_0 file saying there's no gpt in it....
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] askermk2000:
Like Phoenix591 said; even with the xml files, what are you going to do? Can't do anything in 9008 mode without the signed firehose loader for H918.

In this post you can find some examples of these files generated for various LG G5 variants.

The firehose included in the rar-file is the same one mentioned by runningnak3d (but it won't work for H918). Just remove the Chinese characters from the link.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Jabbacks:
So it's a dead end eh.... Why are they making things so hard for the consumers..... SMH!
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] askermk2000:
I know right... Had the same "shock" myself a while back. I'd been dabbling a little with phones before I purchased an el'cheapo H918 on ebay to play with, but those where of a different breed, as I never expected there would be no way to recover from a brick.

I have lots of experience with computers and arm devices like tv-boxes. Been playing with firmware, bios modding etc... Now suddenly LG and Qualcomm tells me I can't even load the original firmware back onto the device.

Just to give an example of what talking about:

I have a fanless mini-pc I bought from Aliexpress 3-4 years ago. Recently it's been acting up with the later Win10 updates, I logically concluded I needed to update the bios, but... good luck finding a bios update for a no-name aliexpress pc.

So what I did was; I used some Intel specific tools to dump the bios and then modify it, updating vga rom, gop rom and cpu microcode. And now I can actually continue to use it. Previously I could not, as it was randomly restarting. Most ppl would have thrown it away at that point.

Now imagine if it was not possible to dump and/or flash a new bios to the motherboard, how ridiculous would that be.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] runningnak3d:
I will not stop harassing anyone I can until I can write my OWN RSA key into the CPU so I can have verified boot AND run my own firmware.

On PCs we can install our own SecureBoot keys -- that is EXACTLY what this is, SecureBoot for phones. We should have the exact same rights. The modem being the ONLY exception.

I understand the need to not have people messing with the modem firmware, since you could crank up transmission power, and do other nasty things.

Simple solution -- keep a separate RSA key just for modem firmware verification.

Ok.... I forgot to mention that I made a TOT backup of this device. (LGH918AT-01-V10t-310-260-MAR-06-2018-ARB01+0.tot) What are my chances of recovering from this TOT?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] runningnak3d:
No. You haven't been able to flash TOT files since MM.

-- Brian
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Jabbacks:
How about extracting the files and compile to make xml files out of this TOT?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Phoenix591:
The firehose you have is almost certainly not the correctly signed by LG firehose for the H918 (which is even different from the LG firehose for the other V20s), and even when a correct firehose was used (the firehose for the v20s except the H918 which IS a different key and was attempted in the post I quoted) it still wasn't able to unbrick a different model V20 (presumably judging by their public silence after the attempt).

You have spare parts unless you want to send to LG to give them a chance to fix it.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] askermk2000:
Can I ask how did you make this TOT, qualcomm premium tool, or something?

Probably it contains the needed files, yes.

If you hang onto it, and the phone, then perhaps eventually you'll be able to unbrick. But you don't really need a dump of *your* phone to accomplish that, unless you erased some important unique partitions.

Would be cool if we'd have a leak of LG factory tools/firehose soon :)
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Jabbacks:
I used Z3x LG to create TOT file.... the file is still the same..... haven't changed anything. I tried to extract this TOT but it's telling me the PrimaryGPT is around 40Gigs when extracted... I don't have that much space available in my laptop
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] askermk2000:
I'm sorry, it seems you have trouble absorbing the info that's been handed to you.

My last post was not to indicate that the TOT could help you in some way, simply that it contains the bootloader (just like any KDZ).

Read Phoenix591's post just above mine. He explains it well.

And here's my supplement: You told us you have this: "prog_emmc_firehose_8996_ddr.mbn"

That file will not work on any LG phone. That can be determined from the name itself - *emmc* and *mbn*. Those are wrong, the right ones are: *ufs* and *elf*.

Second, there exist no known firehose, publicly, that will work on a LG H918.

Your only hope is that eventually one will leak, or that the Z3x, Infinity, Octoplus etc... Team will be able flash in 9008 mode on H918.

Or send it to LG for repair.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] NotYetADev:
Can someone send me the firehose? I won't use it on my phone, i'm just curious how this all works.

[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Topdroid01:
Hi guys. So I've searched about everything I can and can not find a fix for this. At first, my Bluetooth headset wouldn't connect but I've recently fixed that. Now it seems that if I travel more than 2 feet from my phone, the music stops playing. Even if I hold my hand over my phone or put it in my pocket, the music stops and once I take it back out and hold it close to my phone, it works again. Is this a Pie thing or what? I've went to developer options and changed the AVRCP to 1.6 but it doesn't help that much. I love this phone but this is almost a deal breaker for me. Really thinking of returning it and getting a Pixel 2XL if there is no fix. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance!
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] gk1984:
Contact Essential support with this. They're aware of the issue but unsure if they can fix it. I don't know if this is new with Pie or not. I didn't get my Bluetooth headphones until late in the Pie beta.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Topdroid01:
Thanks. I emailed them. Hopefully this is something that can be patched up. How did your headphones do? Any issues? If not, what kind do you have?
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] gk1984:
I've been using Munitio NINES for like 5 years (they seriously are in awesome condition after all this time and sound amazing). But I've gotten frustrated a couple times not being able to charge while listening or forgetting the dongle at home. So I grabbed Marshall Major II's in June. These are my bluetooth headphones. They don't sound nearly as good as the Munitio's, but wireless is convenient.

So my experience? I was on Android Pie beta when I got them. Day 1 with the bluetooth headphones and on, if the phone is in my hand at waist level or higher, they work fine. Put it in my pocket or step away, it's like it's buffering constantly. Oddly, at home (suburb), the "buffering" is almost non-existent (key work "almost"). But I haven't tried stepping away from my phone with BT on. In the city where I work, it's almost unusable unless I hold my phone. I think it's interference with so much wifi since BT and most WiFi broadcast over 2.4 Ghz.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Koncrete:
I changed my default Bluetooth version in the developer options and it seems that pairing goes quicker as well as device pickup. Have you messed with that?
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Topdroid01:
Yeah. I changed it to 1.6, 1.5, 1.4, default, etc... With no luck. You said you have yours set on default? Is it working perfectly? It's not that mine won't connect, it the range. I just do get it. The more I research it, the more I think it's a Pie issue. I've got on some pixel forums and they have the same issue. I'm in touch with the essential support team so maybe they'll tell me they'll have a update out soon to fix this.

Good day! My Galaxy S4 randomly turns off even with 50-60% of charge. I've searched this issue and found the most common solution is to replace the battery, which I did.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wvcadle:
Hello. I have a recurring issue with a 6P I bought for my daughter. Twice her screen has stopped responding to taps or presses. The problem persists even after a factory reset. The first time, I fixed it by wiping the cache partition in stock recovery after the factory reset (I know, makes no sense, since the cache partition gets wiped during a factory reset). The second time it happened, I had to factory reset and wipe the cache independently 2-3 times, and luckily it started working again. I'm not sure whether the resets or wiping the cache did anything, or if just restarting the phone multiple times is what fixed it. Either way, I don't want to buy another phone for her if I can figure out what's happening with this one.

Her phone is a Google Nexus 6P, stock everything. Unrooted & locked.

Note: After happening the first time, and finally getting it to respond, I set her phone up from a cloud backup. This time, I set it up as new. I really don't see how it would matter, as the problem persisted after a reset, before setting up the phone again. I guess I'm leaning on multiple reboots solving the problem, but just don't know.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

I really don't think this would be possible or there would be bluetooth drivers for getting the SIXAXIS controller to work on the PC... there are drivers but you have to plug it in with the USB cable so obviously no one has found a way to dig into the bluetooth stack on the ps3.
