[MENTION=7799420]Choose an username...[/MENTION]: Thanks for the clarification, but the exact meaning of FTM is really just semantics if you ask me. The important thing is that it allows rebooting into EDL in the event that other boot modes are inaccessible. I have heard that EDL can't be accessed on the A2017G via the hardware button combo, so 'adb reboot edl' from FTM is the only way if you are locked out of Android. I'll take your word that FTM won't work if you are DFU bricked, I couldn't access it either.

The whole point of this topic is to ask people who are *not bricked* if they can access FTM, as a means of getting elsewhere.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Predatorhaze:
You can acces EDL with button combo onthe G variant.Also you can boot in EDL if FTM works
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] raystef66:
Some time ago I had a serious problem by reverting back to A2017G stock B10 to achieve B12. I did something wrong in a hurry and afaik DFU bricked the phone.

There was only the QUSB when trying the button EDL combo and the hardwareID under QUSB was : (there was even a text 'DFU...'

USB\VID_19D2&PID_0112&REV_0000
USB\VID_19D2&PID_0112

My friend djkuz acknowlegded it was a DFU because values should look like :

USB\VID_05C6&PID_9008&REV_0000
USB\VID_05C6&PID_9008

But the good part was - and i dont know why - i COULD enter FTM with the 2 button combo.

But only the drivers were not installed the right way. There was 'adb interface' and 'android' with an exclamation sign.

I just reflashed drivers : https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120753806

And I could adb reboot EDL.

Im not an expert on this but I can only say that the symptons were DFU but there was that way to unbrick through FTM.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] AnonVendetta:
Nice info, but the real point of this thread is to establish whether FTM is only available if you are running a stock/stock-based ROM. Because when I have tried to access FTM on AOSP/Lineage/CM-based ROMs (or similar), I have never been able to access FTM. That's why I'm specifically asking whether others can test too, regardless of their specific configuration.
[Samsung Gear Fit] :(((:
I flashed a firmware for another watch onto a Gear Fit 2 out of curiosity to see if it would work, but it didn't. I tried to use NetOdin3 to flash the original firmware back via WiFi but the Gear Fit 2 didn't show up in the list of WiFi networks on my computer (I was on "AP Mode"). What am I supposed to do to get the original firmware back? :(

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] AngryDinosaur:
Say on stock I ticked it to unlock, flashed twrp, flashed rom, everything is great. Will it relock itself after the rom flash or will the option just disappear? Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] TheUndertaker21:
Don't do that

You might get oem jail if you do
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] AngryDinosaur:
Im not gonna touch it after it's turned on. Just want to check that it won't re-lock itself.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bober10113:
depends. once unlocked it would stay unlocked. but if that option was hidden for 7 days and then appeared, it might disappear if flashing a new rim or firmware or wipe and not allow you to boot and force you to flash back stock a d wait 7 more days before it appeared.

i believe rom devs are well aware of this issue and are 'baking' in the fix in their roms.

i know that back on the note 8, the famous OEM unlock issue was widespread. on the note 9 i am not sure if this is still problematic.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ExpertMC:
Hello, I have a galaxy s5 that I am trying to fix for my grandfather because it fell. So far I have installed TWRP but all ROMS have the same issue. Inside TWRP the device works flawlessly: screen, vibrator, touch, buttons, everything. The problem is that whenever I boot into any ROM, after the first 15 seconds or so it freezes. The weird thing is that it works perfectly up until the freeze. So far no ROM has worked. I have done a full wipe of all partitions, even formatted the data. Any suggestions to fix this?

EDIT: I was able to try using crDroid which has adb enabled by default which allowed me to get a logcat. Something very interesting was that I tried swiping the app drawer up and down without ever letting go and it kept working the whole time. Exactly as soon as I let my finger go and stopped touching the screen it froze and gave this error. It happened exactly when I let go, but I'm not sure how I could fix it.

EDIT2: I'm pretty sure that it is related to CPU throttling and thermal control/manager from the logs. I am able to keep it going by continuous swiping which probably is because of the touch input boost. Using that I was able to set the mode under battery to performance to stop the extreme throttling and it worked fine until I was messing with CPU hotplug and thermal in Kernel Adiutor. When I enabled and disabled MDP decision I think.

EDIT3: Seems like its related to the CPU cores. After turning on performance mode which locks all cores to max speed it works just fine. Lowering it to quick or balanced will automatically freeze the phone. I was able to get the minimum frequency to 1245mhz and it still works but setting minimum to 1190 instantly freezes again.

Just open with editor and search for "TOSHIBA\build\windowsCE".

Near this (a few characters right to it) you will find the codename and also the Version 5.0.

So, if anybody tried the G900 soft which is also available at the chinese site pls report and show us pics please, that would be really great.

The biggest problem now with patching and updating the firmware in Toshiba g500 is to extract radio rom.

There are some other versions of radio rom, but I could not find the way to extract the radio rom from the correct mobile and upload it to the new one.

One of the biggest disadvantages of WM6 and WM6.1 on almost all Polish Toshiba G500 is lack of GPRS/HDSPA connection. Therefore on WM6 it is not possible to connect to the internet, send/receive mms messages - these malfunctions makes the mobile not 100% a correct one.

Question:

- Is there a way to exract the radio rom from the WM6-branded G500 and upload to the differen G500?

[Galaxy S 4 General] droidfuture:
[Tips and Tutorial] [MIUI Resources Team] How to fix screen burn-in on your Android smartphone

Hello MIUIers,

Ghost image or screen/image burn-in are names given to a permanent discoloration of your smartphone’s screen caused by irregular pixel usage. The prolonged use of static images can create a permanent shadow or ghost of that image on the screen. This problem is more common than you think, and happens most often on AMOLED screens (although LCD displays aren’t completely free of this bug). Fortunately, there is a solution to restore the image quality of your device.

The screen ghost happens when phosphor compounds that emit light to produce images lose their intensity with prolonged use. Moreover, the irregular use can "burn" an image onto the screen which will be visible all the time. Many apps which are available in the Play Store promise to reduce or even stop the problem. One is the Screen Burn-in Tool.

The concept is simple: a sequence of primary colors is displayed on your device, restoring the "burnt" pixels. In fact, this was the original function of computer screen-savers: one dynamic image that appears when the screen is idle to makes the pixels "exercise" and ensure that the same area of display doesn’t remain constantly illuminated.

font: en.miui.com

Do it at your own risk!

Today I will teach you how to remove the famous burn.

White 80%

Blue 80%:

Green 90%:

Red 100%:

I can not guarantee it will work on other models, my cell phone had very strong shadows on the screen, I realize that almost everything has disappeared ... I'm still running the program, I'll keep you informed on this subject!

Yes, it works, although some report that this does not happen, but their effectiveness depends a lot on the severity of the recording.

If you have shadows from a keyboard or square or both you can remove everything or almost everything, I have the program running for a week at night, I restart the cell phone in the morning and normal use.

Download the Liquid Burn-in Wiper application and use one or four weeks at maximum brightness.

Restart the device once a day, you will have with some luck recovered 80% to 99% of the screen with shade or burn.

Mine at the moment recovered 80%.

Soon I will update the topic with new photos, please wait.

Update add apk:

[Galaxy S 4 General] 3mel:
did you mean to post this here ?
[Galaxy S 4 General] droidfuture:
the post is solely to help people who have burns on the screen and do not know what to do.
[Galaxy S 4 General] 3mel:
an admin must've moved your thread.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Buff99:
Is this the same app as LCD Burn-in Wiper 6.1 by AVAWorks on playstore?

Not saying it doesn't work, but an app targeted at AMOLED screens should be your first port of call...
[Galaxy S 4 General] droidfuture:
If you even repair the ones that say it is for OLED screen they use the basic color system (rgb) ... then any application that changes the default colors should work normal.

Yes, my friend, I do not know why they said no.

do the test yourself, let it run for a week and you will see the difference.

As soon as I finish the tests I will post new photos.
[Galaxy S 4 General] McXred:
Doesnt it just burn the rest screen out to even it out?
[Galaxy S 4 General] droidfuture:
The rest screen is toprevent it from appearing.

You can use it, but it will take much longer, since we do not have a refresh of colors quickly and evenly.

If you want to contribute to the community, you can do some tests. :good:
[Galaxy S 4 General] forfriends:
I think what he meant was:

Does it work by burning the not-already burnt out parts to make it appear less burnt out?
[Galaxy S 4 General] Tombab:
I have Galaxy S5 that has pretty noticeable burn-in. When I view completely white image I can see bright white bars at the top and bottom of the screen, top bar even has few icons visible such as warning triangle at the left, i (info) and home at the right so apparently previous owner was using a lot of some kind of web browser at high brightness levels. Center of the screen is slightly dimmer and yellowish so I assume pixels have been burnt more there.

Now I have read about this AMOLED problem and as far as I know you indeed need to burn better pixels causing the ghost image to same level with the rest of the pixels to make ghost image disappear. I planned to try treating the lower ghost bar first and I already created black image same shape as the screen (but a little larger) having white bar at the bottom. I can view this image on my phone, zoom in and align the white bar to match the white bar of the ghost image while the rest of the screen is black. Then turn brightness all the way up and hope that pixels at the bottom of the screen wear out enough and ghost bar disappears. But I guess it'll take very long time. I'll try few hours per day for a week and see if it makes any difference compared to top ghost bar.

It's very difficult to align the image so that it's pixel perfect so there might be a chance that line or two of the brighter screen portion is covered by black area of the image. But I suppose having slightly brighter 1-2 pixel wide line across the screen is better than noticeably brighter large section of the screen.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Tombab:
I have been keeping the better pixels on at full brightness for total of 24 hours now and I can't see any difference. To me it seems that fixing amoled burn-in isn't a quick process but needs tens or hundreds of hours of screen burning to wear better pixels down to same level so that ghost image disappears. And that's pretty logical as burn-in itself doesn't occur overnight but during months of phone usage. Maybe I'll leave it as it is, my eyes have gotten somewhat used to it anyway. Not worth the trouble.
