after patching w/UI fixer still no PDM mode? how to get PDM in LGup??
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] CXZa:
The options comes from the LGUP_Common.dll and are device based. If you're using the newest dll that supports your device and the option is missing then it's likely that it's not supported.

What you could try is to find a UI_Config.lgl file for some newer device that has PDM option, but it probably just gives some error message... also the dll must work with your device...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] CXZa:
Overdoing options a bit...

Image is fake, but only because the LGUP has a bug in it.

There is possibility for 25 options, but not enough room for them in the GUI. They overlap each other if more than 15.

And, oh yeah, there are few other options that are not mentioned in GUI files - encrypted or not.

Tested some, and they gave just some error messages.

Like the dll or laf didn't support them for my device...

LG-Kdz Download Tool

Started to make a GUI version just for fun. Supports IMEI downloads, but needs some adjusting and cleaning up.

Again making a GUI is not my thing... maybe I'll just add IMEI downloads to the original batch version eventually...

edit: The IMEI is only sent to the LG, like LG Bridge does. (I might add possibility to send the download links found to my website for sharing, but that will be asked beforehand... )
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] CXZa:
Same as above but added IMEI downloads to the old batch version. Had to update the small wget to make it work. Nowadays it is huge. Don't like at all. Have to make some smaller one myself...

Hi @CXZa ! Is it possible for the LG-Kdz-downloader tool to d/l older KDZ versions? It appears to only give the option for the latest Nougat and Oreo KDZs. I'll admit I don't truly understand how the tool works, but does LG only send an xml with the latest KDZ versions, or does the tool only ask for the latest and build an xml from the info LG sends?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] CXZa:
This.

If it doesn't work named as LGUP_common.dll, then you might have to use the reg file edited for your device. Still the cross flashing is a long shot...

@CXZa THANK You for this post, Since upgrading to Android 12 it's been a nightmare. I want to thank You for the LGUp tool Menu Update.

from reverting back to Android 9 and updating to Android 11 - The Lg g8x 850 constantly lost the use of the Fingerprint Reader and every scam artist out there tried to convince me they can remotely assist for a price.

So a little rundown of how I fixed it.

I used your LG-KDZ-dll-Tool_[cxz] tool to add the additional menu settings. from Android 10 I selected the .kdz for Android 12 package A,

Ran administrator LgUp v1.16.0.3 Dll version 1.0.40.2

Selected : Dump - sdaved all partions additional to the QFIL backup I had.

Selected : Partition Download, Android G850EM40b_00_0110.kdz package into Bin

Nowa special note on battling with Second display's - its hardwareon mine and clipping the lop teft corner out got me to reflashthe second screen.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] MechaNarutoSucks:
Hi again.

This time I'll touch into a very frustrating matter for the new users of poco f1. because of how the hardware test app on the new miui versions don't show the manufacturer of the lcd panel.

From what I've asked my friends it seems that the global versions ship with low quality displays such as ebbg panels and the models which got launched at first have the better tianma panels.

Its been like this for 3 of my friends 2 of them had the tianma panel because they were using the initial models and one of them had the global version.

So if you were thinking of overclocking your lcd you should choose the 65 hz option if you have the global version because ebbg panels and others are not that good in terms of quality.

To be honest ive tried the 65hz even then it had some weird glitch artifacts on the screen so i would advise you to stay at 60hz.

And if you are using the global version you should stay updated in terms of touch drivers and if you are not using the global try to use the old drivers.

Hope this helped you.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] D1stRU3T0R:
I have NVT screen and i never had problems even with 70hz, batch from 11

Also never use old driver cuz that's ruining your screen
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] mastermoon:
my pocophone F1 Global is a 2018/10 Lot and use Tienma fhd nt36672a display... never heard of other display type...
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] deathnoise:
Pocophones have been supplied with 3 LCD panels - EBBG, BOE and Tianma.

From what I've gathered so far- Tianma are superior since these are most likely LTPS IPS panels, while BOE/EBBG are regular IPS panels. Meaning - Tianma panels are consuming much less energy.

This is why some of the Pocophone users can easily surpass even 16 hours of SOT (without gaming, just watching youtube, movies, listening to the music, etc. with Wifi AND LTE data always enabled) while others can't get even past 8-12 hours (BOE/EBBG panels) in pretty much the same use-case scenarios.

You can find some Pocophone panel comparisons on youtube. In these videos EBBG has a yellowish tint (whites are yellow/brownish) and is overall darker, while BOE and Tianma are much brighter and also have much better color reproduction. Also - on these videos Tianma panels have no issues when it comes to touch detection on the edges, while BOE have some issues near top/bottom of the screen.

That's also why you can find conflicting opinions when it comes to the screen of Pocophone, in different reviews that are available on the internet. Some of them say that the screen of the Pocophone is mediocre at best, while other say that it's very good in its class, for the price. There are also different numbers when it comes to the measured brightness.

These reviewers got different Pocophones with different panels.

By going through the kernel notes of different custom kernels on XDA forums you can gather that Tianma screens can be overclocked up to 70 Hz, while BOE/EBBG are more limited (up to 65 Hz).

You've said that Tianma panels have been supplied initially and are not being supplied anymore. I can't confirm that information. My Pocophone (with Tianma panel) was manufactured in 2018-10. You can find the date at the bottom right side of the sticker which is located at the back of the original phone box.

When it comes to checking the panel model - you should be able to do that by going into: Settings->About phone->Full specification. Then touch the "kernel version" several times.. It should get you into the diagnostic mode.

There you should be able to pick the first available option - "Check version info". Next - just scroll down at the bottom and there you will find "LCM Information", in my case it says: "dsi tianma fhd nt36672a video display"
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] SIRKRA:
Just to add more recent infos My poco 6/128 Global Version manufactured 01/2019 have Tianma panel, perfect backlight but I can say sometimes fails when trying to type fast, it's not a problem with edges but seems more a problem with touch input recognition that is not uniform among the panel
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] MechaNarutoSucks:
In the new versions of the miui the option to see it is gone the only way to figure it out is by using root

And when it comes to your answer I've never said anything like

" this is the truth "

So this is just a conclusion I've came up with to help others who insist on not rooting.

From the results of my investigation this was the conclusion I've ended up with.

And if you've read it carefully you can see that i've said that me and my friends all had the global version. So this is just a conclusion based on me and my friend's experience.

Edit: mine was manufactured in 2019.01 just you let you know.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] D1stRU3T0R:
So you have 2019.01 and have problems? What screen you have? I have 2018.11 and never had problems even with 70hz
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] deathnoise:
I haven't said that you did. Just that I can't confirm that Tianma panels have been used only initially (Tianma panels are also being used in the new Redmi Note 7) .

And I agree - it's good to exchange the information, by having more of these comments coming from different Pocophone users, we can get a better view on how Xiaomi is operating when it comes to using very different phone components in the same phone model.

I'm not trying to discourage that, it's just the opposite.

The other phones, like Xiaomi Redmi 6 are also using different panels from EBBG, BOE and Tianma.

You can also try to enter: *#*#64663#*#* using your dial pad. It should bring up the same QC test menu. Check it out.

Like i said in the new versions of the miui specifically beta versions the qc test menu doesn't show the display info like i said I've rooted my device and loaded pe for my taste and have a custom kernel I've just wanted to give my opinions on it for the users who want their devices to stay unrooted like you said. And I've said it before but I'll say it again i have the ebbg panel it's not like I'm not satisfied. For the price I'm more than satisfied with the poco.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] MechaNarutoSucks:
For the unrooted users the app doesn't show the panel info.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] MechaNarutoSucks:
Like you said the touch problems are software related some users reported that the new versions of the miui/firmware with the new touch drivers had problems such as touch lag multi touch not working and recent reports from the users are good poco team has kept their promise and fixed the issues so it should be okay for the users to flash the new firmware/miui updates without worrying.

And from what you are saying my conclusion got stronger the ones from launch mostly have the tianma panels and I'm gonna say it again this is not going to be true for every launch manufactured poco but if you are frustrated you can probably rest relieved because most likely you have one of the best panels poco f1 has shipped with.

[MENTION=1844875]CosmicDan[/MENTION] And thx for the reply I'm happy that users got what they wanted.

Edit: New reports from my friends show that the newly manufactured ones mostly have the nvt panels instead of tianma especially for the 64gb versions all the low quality panels stay the same.

[Samsung Gear Live] GuestX01055:
So I just recently came across this watch and have been fiddling with it. I managed to twrp it, unpack the 5.1.1 boot img other day and patch it with magisk and flashed it successfully. There was a little error in magisk manager you could slide by when you first opened it but it showed installed could grant superuser permissions.

The newest updates (6.0.1) and above I guess are using this squashfs scheme for system so it's not mountable. I noticed on the lg watch there was a squashfs doryimg, does anyone have squashfs sprat compatible twrp already anywhere, or can create one quicker than me? Or lead me in the right direction to compile it myself? An update installed on me unrooted me and failed to install, ideas on easiest way to freeze them prefferably adb shell pm uninstall -0 type command? Managed to also magisk patch 6.0.1boot img and flash it successfully get superuser permissions but its not proper doesnt have system permission to change anything much because of squashfs.

Tried DPI Changer is nice. Google Keyboard is good but wish it had an enter button so I can fiully type in jackpal terminal spaces that require an enter key. Will maybe try hackers keyboard(tried swype, gboard, minuum on 5.1.1 no dice). Google Analog draw keyboard zip kind of nice but annoying to type with. Es File Explorer pro size render disallowed looking at others app menu beside users. Es File Explorer worked to uninstall on 6.0.1 but not 5.1.1 had to go to go to data/ app to uninstall on 5.1.1. Could not install apk from device. Have been having to use adb install and push commands to get most files on the watch. Chrome apk latest works. I'd like to stay at 5.1.1 to maintain proper magisk/ twrp solely because of lack of squashfs support. Anyway to update google play service (1.1 to android 1.3 or 1.5) without updating version or install real playstore? Tried remote desktop/ gmail but only thing stopping me was I am unable to login to a google account on device because there is no account section in settings. Tried several app versions, shortcuts, workarounds no luck but lmk if you were able to.

Used rootjunky restore tool v2 to restore stock 4.4 it works well. V3 wouldn't recognize my almost bricked device but V2 would. OTA back from 4.4 is super annoying tho adb doesnt work says unauthorized until 5.1.1 doesnt give key doesnt pop up. Adb sideload is friend. There is not another boot img until 6.0.1 so had to apply patch updates then unpack/ repack. Had issues with backups not restoring root somehow. https://xdaforums.com/wiki/Samsung_Gear_Live couldnt find anything newer besides one reddit post. first 6.0.1 update is twrp flashable.

well thats about all for now when I reupgrade I'll try and upload 5.1.1 magisk root if nothing changes. Thank you kindly Feel free to chime in if you still have this device, what worked for you., any tips, :good:
