So I've been encountering this problem whenever I'm trying to do anything to the Modem Partitions on the Essential Phone:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot devices

C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot erase modemst1

And... flashing the img file using

fastboot flash modem_a or modem_b

didn't provide the result I wanted.

If anyone have some inputs would be really appreciated. Thanks...

Did you unlock critical? I don't remember the exact commands but it's similar to unlocking the bootloader.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ph1_user:
I did. I've done both

fastboot flashing unlock

and

fastboot flashing unlock_critical

I'll be trying to flash older essential fastboot.img(s) to see wether that would change anything. Because from the r/essential on reddit, people actually were able to flash onto the modemst partitions.

reddit*com/r/essential/comments/9e9to8/invalid_sim_network_locked_fix_for_the_september/

I was doing the automatic steps, but the phone literally doesn't respond to .bat file provided. So I tried doing it manually, and it was when I hit this partition problem.

If it's not asking to much, would someone confirm wether or not flashing onto this partition is possible? Thanks
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] veisen:
You must unlock and downgrade bootloader (old android 7 rom) on last android 7 and 8,9 roms you cannot flash modemst part bcs security patches

flash NMK24B factory image first and after unlock_critical you can flash modemst parts

download rom from here https://www.essential.com/developer/current-builds

and after flash modemst parts you can flash android 8.1 rom and check if is it unlocked bcs after flash modemst parts phone stay in locked state on android 7
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ph1_user:
So I've been trying to flash the NMK24B, I hadn't been successful these previous days, but I found a trick from this youtube video;

youtube*com/watch?v=RrMLqSXcxjI

So I'll proceed to flash the modemst partitions, and give you guys update.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ph1_user:
Phone is Sim Unocked Now

So this is the manual process to do all this, if your phone isn't responding to the automatic procedure according to https://www*reddit*com/r/essential/comments/9e9to8/invalid_sim_network_locked_fix_for_the_september/.

Flash NMK24B on fastboot by running flashall.bat. If it's not sending package to the phone, then install Minimal ADB and copy fastboot.exe from Minimal ADB directory to NMK24B directory, the run the flashall.bat.

After the above procedure you will boot into adroid, re-enable usb debugging, then go to fastboot again. Open cmd from Minimal ADB and flash modemst, which you can find from reddit post above on Essential Unlock>Data>Modemst:

fastboot flash modemst1 modemst1.img
fastboot flash modemst2 modemst2.img

Resources are from the reddit post above. Credits goes to the creator of this trick (in which I do not know who).

Need your help. I just accidently selected radioband USA settings on my htc one m8. Now the network is completely gone. I saw on the internet to erase my modemst1 and modemst2 using fastboot. But it says that "failed (remote:not allowed). What does this mean? And how it'll allow me?

I also have s off. Bootloader unlocked. And device rooted.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] davidstreams:
Yesterday I dropped my wall adapter, I think that it wasn't damaged because it's still charging. However, I shaked it to check if any part was broken or something like that and I felt something inside, it was like sand inside, I have to put the adapter too close to me to hear it. Is it normal? Do your wall adapters sound too when shaking them?

Sorry if I'm a little paranoid :confused:

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 (2017) Questions & Answers] nitrorat1:
I have tried ADB/Fastboot but it does not work --- Drivers are loaded correctly.

I type in adb devices and it displays the device.

I then type in adb reboot bootloader and it the device goes into bootloader mode.

I then type in fastboot devices and no devices show.

If I type in fastboot oem unlock it just goes to "waiting of device" message.

Any suggestions would be appreciated...thanks...
[Samsung Galaxy J7 (2017) Questions & Answers] fretwork13:
I'm guessing your carrier is Verizon?

Do you know what makes me say that? It's because Verizon gets in the way and puts an oem bootloader unlock code on your phone that should be able to turn on and off through the developer options but Verizon has hidden the ability to toggle the OEM bootloader settings! Causing alot of angry folks. Including me being one of them.

for the past two weeks I have searched far and wide to try to find any kind of information as if to anyone has successfully unlocked this phone's bootloader and was able to get in and route it because I know all those crappy third party app (kingo root...etc .) Wouldnt work at all and kept freezing my phone up. I quit before the app had a chance to mess up anything on the phone like majorly important.

I dunno man, I usually just give up on whatever phone it is I'm trying to work on if the XDA site has nothing at all spread out across the entire site. So many people wants to know the same thing your asking, but I'm taking you a step further and just telling you why we can't do anything productive on these galaxy J7's. Anywho... We should keep in contact with one another if we find out anything we can let one another know. I'll make a post as soon as I find anything successful at all!

May the force be with us all! Have a good day dude.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DrGero:
Hello XDA,

I thought I'd reach out to tell you all more about the ClangBuiltLinux [0] project. Compiling the Linux kernel with LLVM has been something folks have been working on for around a decade [1]. It's something that we're making use of in Android, particularly on Pixel phones (but you can expect to see more soon).

Particularly, if folks hit what they think are compiler related bugs affecting their custom kernels (or missing kernel LTS backports, or w/e), we'd like to know about them so we can fix them. We have a public issue tracker [2], mailing list [3], wiki [4], hangout on IRC (#clangbuiltlinux on chat.freenode.net), and meet once every two weeks on a public video call (see [0]).

Also, it's personally important to me to help folks out that are looking to get started w/ upstream kernel development (or LLVM), so if that's something that interests you, find a way to reach out to me.

I'm happy to answer general questions folks might have.

(Big shoutout to [MENTION=6842057]nathanchance[/MENTION] who's been instrumental to building the Linux kernel w/ Clang, and keeping it building)

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Questions & Answers] raymerjacque:
Has anyone found any third party Camera app that actually has Image Stabilization working ? It works on the default Camera, but this cam is full of bugs ( one major one being it drops frames ). Third party apps like Open Cam and GCam dont have the frame drop issue but they don't support Image Stabilization on Redmi note 7 pro....

Has anyone found any camera app that has Image Stabilization working for Videos ?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Questions & Answers] TigerKing:
Try GCam port.

Here you go, link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UW69AQComQk98eDM3GWSy_zmgroEbRHi/view

but remember, this will encrypt your system partition on reboot. If you want decrypted system partition, you need to flash decrypt.zip for pie.

Warning: Flash that zip on your own risk, users are reporting that their MAC ID got corrupted after flashing decrypt.zip
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] Godspeed123:
so since there is sound going out of the screen of the lg g8, does putting a screen protector effect the sound output?
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] phillymade:
Not at all. I have a Pure Gear glass with a Spigen clear case and it sounds the same as when I had it naked out of the box.
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] Arcanen:
Two interesting things:

a) It has a sort of bone conduction effect, which makes it very easy to hear in crowed places

b) When used as a loud speaker, it becomes MUCH louder if laid down flat on a surface (as opposed to being held in the hand, or propped up leaning against something).
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] RaggyD:
I've got an otterbox type case/cover, the screen cover is a plastic..the difference in audio is negligible.
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] bdithug:
How does the pure gear glass fit? Is it full adhesive? And is it cut to the correct size? It seems almost impossible to find a quality glass screen protector for this device.
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] phillymade:
It is not full adhesive, and is slightly narrower than the device. It's not my ideal fit, but it's not not bad.
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] bdithug:
Thanks for the info. I was debating between the pure gear and the ishieldz tempered glass which I'm going to check out tomorrow. Does the gap under the screen protector bother you at all?
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] phillymade:
No. However, in sunlight it's hard to see as the glass has a texture to it that gives it a tiny for lack of a better word
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] bdithug:
I tend to be picky about my screen, so I think I'd almost rather have a smaller protector that doesn't cover the curve, so long as it's tempered glass and full adhesive
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] wilpang:
I have tempered glass on mine and the screen still sounds fine

[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] caztricum:
Hi there. After (an attempt) to unlock the bootloader of my A50 and installing TWRP Recovery (TWRP_A50_Magisk_Prepatched) i find myself in an orange bootstate. I can't get it into recovery, download or fastboot mode. It seems like a full brick. I can't even power off the device. Only Volume up, Volume down and Power button let's the device reboot but then the same boot problems appear. Is there anything i can do to recover my phone?

Text of first screen when booting up:

"The phone's bootloader is unlocked and it's software integrity can't be verified. Andy data on this phone may be vulnerable to attackers. Don't store any important or sensitive information on this phone". Press power key to continue"

Text of second screen when booting up:

"The phone is not running Samsung's official software. You may have problems with features or security and you won't be able to install software updates"

Any ideas!?

flash stock via odin
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] RestrictedPower:
I have the same problem described as above. To use odin you need access to the download menu. Personally, i can not even access the download menu using any cobination of volume up-down & power combination... :(
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] jtanhw:
Try connecting your phone to your PC with the USB Type C cable, and do VolDown + Power to reboot the phone, and the moment the screen turns black, press VolUp + VolDown. It'll bring you to a different screen where you can press VolUp to go into download mode for flashing the stock firmware via Odin. I got my stock firmware from https://samfrew.com/all/page/2/#t (you'll need to search for your Model Number - SM-A505F/SM-A505FN/SM-A505FM, and select the correct Region. Also, select the correct Modem Version (the last 4 letters/number of the item to download). Then, follow the "Flashing Guide" at the bottom of the Samfrew page where you downloaded your firmware.

This did it for me! Many thanks...

You can find answers in the S10 forum. But I think the steps will be the same (this is A8 device/forum).

[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] SleepingAran:
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 9, Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 and iPhone 6S, and I can't help but notice that Asus GPS initialization is significantly slower than the other 2 device.

Samsung tooks about 5 second to complete the GPS initialization after I opened Google Map and Waze.

Apple's iPhone 6S GPS initialize successfully immediately when I open the Map application

Asus is more like a hit or miss. Sometimes it tooks 10 seconds to complete the GPS initialization, sometimes it tooks more than 5 minutes.

Waze would stuck at a "No GPS Signal. Providing approximated location" for more than 5 minutes sometimes.

I never had these problem with Samsung and Apple.

Anyone has a solution for this?

I am using ZFMPM1 3G/32GB with Pixel Experience-CAF latest ROM and PBHv14.
