[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] tico_ssa:
I managed to lock hard reset trough mdm block using package disabler pro. But can't lock the odin install... If there's a way to put a password to enter recovery or odin...this will lock and secury the phone for good....but there isn't.

I managed to lock odin install

I managed to lock odin install with a program called surelock. they give me access to knox options. in there i can lock hard reset and download mode. After doing that i try to flash the last pie version but i get the error FRP blocked the download in red letters.

Now the phone is completely secured!

Don't know/cant find a way that works to bypass the frp lock on recovery and on odin.

I think my phone is finally safe from thieves right now. If it get's stolen it will be useless for him/her.

is there any other way to bypass this security measures that i adopt?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] TheMadScientist:
Not that I know of
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] tico_ssa:
Now the only way to unlock a phone with those security measures is with a box to change de boot chip.

Hi,

I'm not a developer so sorry if my questions sound basic but I much appreciate your help.

I have a big issue with my GT-i9000 (which works well until now).

It gets into boot loop - when trying to start up it doesn't get through the screen GT-i9000 (every time goes black screen and so on).

I read various discussions here that indicate it could be a bootloop issue that I can fix with Odin and certain fix file that I can't find active source to download it (most of the posts were a few years back).

Also I'm not familiar at all with Odin, adb and other similar softwares and terms, and certain explanations here sound very complicated to me.

I don't want to go through such fix process and to found out later that all of the media files were deleted.

Can you please instruct me how can I fix it at the most simple way (again, I'm not an expert)?

Also, is there a possibility to copy the media files that I have in the phone to my computer and to somehow bypass the loop issue? (without going through Odin etc.)

Anyway I have another phone so if this one will stop working but still I can save all the files I can live with that (of course I prefer this phone will also work).

Thanks a lot in advance!

Thomas

Mirror black TMO variant and midnight black unlocked variant. Had red OP6 so if they release a red 6T I'll grab it via selling one of my 2. Purple I don't care for.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] GloomySVT:
Was going to wait for Thunder Purple, but when I saw it was more lavender than an electric purple, I went with the Midnight Black. Zero regrets. The Midnight black is extremely classy and minimal. It makes the device look and feel like something special. The texture is so silky, and cold to the touch, like high quality brushed metal.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] LA_vision:
Got the Mirror black because it was the only color for the 6gb/128 option. In all honesty, I don't really care about color on a phone like this because there is no way I wouldn't use a case on a phone this fragile.

i was on cosmic os since march 2018

but since monday 29/10/2018

phone needed much more time than usual to start (2-3 minute instead of 15s)

phone app freeze when i try to make a call, wich lead to an automated reboot 1-2 minute later

can't listen music on high speaker, works fine on headset and bluetooth

So I am seeing all these wm 6.1 with very low amounts or ram in them. Is low ram the norm with 6.1? How do people get their ppc's to run properly with only 20 mb's of ram to start?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] zim2dive:
I'll follow with a really ignorant question.. is there any way to shift the memory to program RAM vs storage? ie. I've got a 6G SDHC card.. I don't care about "bigstorage".. I'd rather see "bigRAM" builds.. but since I've never seen a single one, I'm guessing that isn't possible.. I suppose the flash ROM wouldn't have the write cycles to act as a RAM...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] bartybet:
Not that i know of past 2003 ppc's. But i find it odd that the cooked 6.0 roms all have close to 30 mb's of storage and these new ones cant crack 22 mb's. Odd.

For an in-depth discussion on this topic, you can start out with this thread. Don't be afraid to click on the links within for a very complete understanding of why Program Memory and Storage Space cannot be resized (unfortunately).

-pvs
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] JamesAllen:
Don't get it.

I really don't understand at all the drive for larger and larger storage. So what if you have 58MB of "Big Storage" on the device. With SDHC cards growing ever larger at lower costs, the issue, it seems to me, is not device storage as much as Free Program Memory.

I have looked with interest at the new 6.1 ROMs until I search through the posts and find that, at startup, the more desirable ones (with the features I would like), have Free Program Memory in the very low 20MB range. Just load PIE and another memory hog like an audio player and watch your memory drop to less than 4MB and your PIE freeze.

Sorry, I am running a 6.0 ROM with everything I like on it and have about 24MB at startup. I use FreeUp RAM a couple times a day to recover Program Memory and everything is fine. I don't like running this lean and am considering upgrading to a Tytn II (AT&T 8925) with roughly double the memory of the Hermes so I don't have to worry about memory any longer. For me, the 6.1 ROMS with anything worth running and the current memory on the Hermes just doesn't make it. And I love the 8525.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] McTell:
You are damn right!! Thats my opinion too!

I've the same setting like you, I am running a clean WM6 with my costum apps and I am also about 25 mb Ram (only with Sk Tools Ram tuning).

So, our future cooking motto is: " We Love SuperBigRam-Builds "

This might help you guys out,

http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/upx4ppc.shtml

"Absolutely essential program for PPCs with limited space (my 64MB model has only a 20MB ramdisk). I have been able to install twice as many programs thanks to UPX4PPC. Tips: (1) Make sure you untick "compress icons" (ticked by default). (2) Use maximum compression: it doesn't take long and occasionally makes a significant difference. (3) Compressing TCPMP: if you rename all the .plg files to .dll you can upx them (then rename them back!) I reduced the install from 1600KB to 923KB this way!"
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CRCinAU:
Keep in mind that if you do this, the DLL files etc cannot be loaded in shared memory - so your applications have to load their own instance of compressed DLLs. This can make things VERY RAM hungry on your devices...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Mrjasjam:
I run Pays 6.1 rom and i get about 25 megs at start up with Activesync connected to my exchange server.

I notice some roms have a total program memory of 50 megs and some only 48 megs. Does this mean that the rom can be tweaked to get more than 50 megs of Program memory?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] zim2dive:
Does this save Program RAM? Or Storage space?

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] JamesAllen:
Free Program Memory

I understand the preoccupation with maximizing Storage Memory. It is the only memory that apparently can be manipulated. But, the exercise seems rather academic to me with the advent of SDHC cards. It isn't storage memory that has ever been a problem for me, it is Program Memory. And Program Memory cannot be expanded (my understanding) so the only solution is to execute fewer or smaller programs if you want to maximize free Program Memory.

Unless we can get someone to develop a "virtual memory" feature that uses an allocated portion of SDHC memory as Program Memory, the only way we can maximize free program memory is by loading fewer applications, normally through a clean and lean ROM. If it could be accomplished, it would still pose speed issues in that the pipe to the SDHC card has to be far slower than the internal memory pipeline.

My 2 cents worth.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] bartybet:
Don't understand it either. Do the base 6.1 roms come with that little ram built in? Maybe that's why there isnt an official version released yet. They cant get it to run more then 3 things at a time.

friends,,, set file cache (pagepool) to auto mode, zero! when I used schaps wm6 4.31 my hermes had 32mb of free program (ram)..

:)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mmick:
Yeah but slow as hell! Pagepool is made exactly to speed up the PDA by caching some data.

The problem is:

- 26-30Mb of RAM are far from enough for a web browser with flash content

- SD card bus is so slow on latency that can hardly be used as a virtual memory for active programs

- No pagepool or no cache is not an option

Perhaps someone could build ASAP an application that would transfer non-active drivers/apps or less demanding apps to a virtual RAM on the SD and keep the active ones (HTC Home, phone app, Web browsers/games) on the real RAM

One of the best apps for a mobile is OXIO stuff that will free RAM but perhaps the best option is an app that *in case of very low memory* would free non-used ram and would compress the demanding app data on RAM (usually I only run out of memory if I surf on the web with opera or netfront). Of course it would slow down a bit the PDA at that point but at least the app wouldn´t stop and would run until nothing could be really done.

Does anyone knows an app that does this on-the-fly? (auto-free and compress RAM)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sebastianmc:
mmick, I dont realize difference between with 4mb ppoll or without ppool.. I made benchs with and without ppool.. and to me, it doesnt make difference in performance... and sometimes I use msn, i.e, e mail, coreplayer. word... without pagepool or file cache, and my device is fast!! I dont believe pagepool.. lol

sorry for my english :)

regards
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pvs:
Curious ... did you ever test a ROM with a 6 or 8MB PP? That is where the difference is supposed to be notable.

I've toyed with these settings. These ROMs seemed faster at first, but I'm not so sure if there's a significant difference in the long run. As these were my own home-cooked ROMs I was experimenting with, I never kept them for any length of time.

I'd like to know your experiences with large PagePools, rather than the 4MB default.

Thanks!

I tried the Kaiser and found it slower than the Hermes even though it had more memory. The thing was laggy. They need to put more powerful processors into these things.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Mrjasjam:
One more thing id like to add and that is although the 6.1 roms appear to take a little more memory they seem to run better at lower memory than 6.0 roms. Just something that i have noticed.

Does anyone else tend to agree?

Cheers.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] st3v3:
Errm no?

The current 6.1 rom im running is basically the same as the telstra/imate wm6 rom as far as the memory goes. The few advantages with the 6.1 im running is i can turn some of the animation off so that the UI is more responsive.

Really like the SMS threading in 6.1.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] SDWolf:
The problem with the Kaiser isn't the ram or the processor, it's a problem with hardware acceleration, or the complete lack thereof because they didn't bother to write drivers to take advantage of it. There's a huge thread in the Kaiser section of the forum about this issue.

Back on-topic, I have 24MB free on startup using Schap's 4.31, with most cache settings set to the minimum (though not disabled). I haven't noticed a performance hit when compared to the defaults, and having the extra RAM helps a bit.

Hello everyone!

I ran into some trouble while I tried to flash a new Firmware for my A6+ (SM-A605FN/DS)

I think I accedantily tried to flash the wrong build. Now it sayes:

Subsystem Crashed: MODEM!

Normal Poweroff=1

last_ns:0xbf

Wait..

Done!

upload mode !!

I'm not sure which build I need. Its an Vodafone Phone in Germany.

Everytime I try to flash another build now it says: "unsupport dev_type". I had this working before: COMBINATION_FAC_FA80_A605FNXXU1ARE2_FAC_CL13562291 _QB18276891 (from Hardwarereset . info. I can't post links yet..)

But if I flash this it goes through and Odin says : "Pass" but after the restart I'm back in upload mode. I think if I get this working again I could find the right CSC and download the correct Firmware.

Could it be that the bootloader is somhow messed up?

is there any way to fix this?

Thank you all in advance!

Hi everyone.

Just for your information. There is an issue with the next updates of EMUI (at least in chinese version), in builds 8.1.0.171, 8.1.0.181, and 9.0.0.120, you can not use a third-party launcher. In 9.0.0.120 build there is a note: "You will be unable to use third-party launchers if you install this update. This issue will be resolved in the next system update.", but I have that problem since 2 previous versions.

I saw a thread in Huawei P20 pro's forum with the same issue but just presenting it in 9.0.0.120.

If anyone has seen more information, I'll be glad to read it, because this is kind of a deal breaker for me. Maybe I'll switch to Pixel 3.
