if you cleared the regHive and storage between flashes as the guides tell you to

then the issue maybe else where then the rom

and that you use tmobile should not make any difference as contacts and calender should work even without a sim card in
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] kinderenh:
Do Contacts and Calendar REALLY not work, or are the buttons of your MDA II "at the end of their life"?

Additionally, have you used the ExtROM unlocking tools to release the (otherwise hidden) ExtROM space? WM5 may work on your MDA II without doing this, but WM6 almost certainly will not.

Hey, maybe being really stupid, but i managed to get twrp installed (and it doesnt have a blank screen)... I can't figure out how to install magisk

The primary reason for this is this is my old device for the kids to play Pokemon Go - but Go seemed to detect it as unsupported (assumed because it was bootloader unlocked, but not rooted)

I've installed Magisk manager and hit install but it errors from twrp, not sure what I'm doing wrong - some of the instructions say I need a boot.img so i started getting lost!

Thanks in advance

Hi there,

I have seen that there is a update for my car stereo on this link:joyingauto.eu/blog/post/joying-intel-airmont-sc9853i-car-stereo-latest-update

I have downloaded the file "9853i 1024X600 or 800X480 Google 2019.5.15.zip" using the first link on that page to my mac.

I have upzipped the file.

I have copied all(5 files, 1 folder) the files to usb drive(fat32).

I connected the usb drive to each of the usb ports of joying JY-VO131N4.

But joying doesn't start anything. It's not picking the update automatically.

Do you have any idea what I am doing wrong?

Link to my system:aliexpress.com/item/32870185927.html

Model Name: JY-VO131N4

CPU: Intel SC9853i Octa Core 1.8GHZ

Thanks in advance,

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Delgoth:
So I'm looking into a bunch of the firmware builds and OTA updates. And what I've found, is that I have a 5DSC1 kernel signed with test keys. And I also have this same kernel signed with release keys.

Same actual debug kernel, but two copies signed with two different keys. Something seems different with the 5DSC1 build.

And it isn't even the first 5D BL rev. Those pie betas were the first builds to use the 5D BL back in December. But they kept putting out 5C BL builds to the public until March.

Anyone else have some insights here while I continue diving down this rabbit hole?

Because while we can't directly access our recovery logs, you can still view them in recovery mode. And looking at the log when OTA updating to 5DSC1 gives a lot of information for using the FOTA tools.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] LGGuy83:
I'm hoping someone with a pixel 3a on sprint can help. When I am in airplane mode with wifi calling on, I am draining battery under "mobile network standby". This is an issue since I live in a poor cell area. I downloaded the GSAM app and it shows that the phone is searching for a phone signal when airplane mode/wifi calling is on. I talked to google and they said the phone should be replaced, but I don't really want to get it replaced because the phone is great other than this issue and I already have a screen protector on it.

I am still wondering if this may just be how Sprint wifi calling works with the Pixel 3a. Can anyone else try the above test on GSAM and let me know if they are having similar results with the phone searching phone signal in airplane mode with wifi calling on?
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] 12paq:
Sorry I am on AT&T not Sprint but just a thought, have you tried turning off Developer Options > Networking > Mobile Network Always Active ?

Edit: this probably won't work with Airplane Mode active, but it's worth a quick test.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] LGGuy83:
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I already have this set as off, so no luck there.

Even though you are on AT&T and not Sprint, if you have some free time and don't mind trying out the test, let me know if your phone is different than mine. I'm not sure if its just my phone specifically, if its a Sprint issue, or its a pixel 3a across the board issue.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] 12paq:
Here ya go. Not sure if 2hrs is enough time for the test, but this is what I have.

Also I too live in a poor reception area and use wifi calling heavily. I keep my data and voice on and just have wifi calling toggled on all the time. I get incredible battery life.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] LGGuy83:
Thanks, I really appreciate you doing that! Interesting, the app also shows your phone radio being on in airplane mode, with a % of battery drain, albeit small. I'm now thinking this may be a universal issue with the phone. I bet that if you put your phone in airplane mode with wifi on but wifi-calling off, your phone radio on GSAM would be zero (not be active).
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] 12paq:
Happy to help ??

That app is cool too. I might have to keep that one. ?
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] LGGuy83:
Absolutely, you should also give it full access through ADB, so "app usage" shows all of your apps instead of just lumping them into one bucket.

The script (br549) works as expected when ran directly so nothing is wrong with the script. Permissions are set to 0700 like the other two working scripts in the same directory, one that binds /system/init.d to /system/su.d I assume it was created by Magisk with 00 in front of it and one that Link2SD uses to bind the second partition on my sd card with 11 in front of the name which was created by that app, both work on boot, mine is 12br549, again the script works but will not run on boot, I even tried using a simple script in /system/su.d to run br549.sh from /root but it still doesn,t run at boot.

[Nokia 2.1 Guides, News, & Discussion] hikari_calyx:
The overall procedure is too simple, let me tell you how.

UPDATE: Looks like it's also applicable on Nokia 2.1 V by analyzing aboot. So previous NB1-Collision reserved as reference of EDL method, in case HMD may block it soon.

Please let me know if it doesn't work on your current firmware version. I'm working on make the overall procedure much more stable.

UPDATE: Looks like NB1-Collision is the only way to unlock the bootloader. Please read this topic to acquire the tool and attempt to unlock it: https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=79825293

If Android 9 firmware installed, phone disassembly and wire trick required.

So we recommend users unlock the phone immediately once bought.

Following procedure is archived.

Step 1: Download firmware which consists the service bootloader file

You can download it from https://fih-firmware.hikaricalyx.com/hmd_en.html#e2m

Please download E2M-0390-0-00WW-B02 one in this case. If you're using Android 9, download E2M-108C-0-00WW-B01.

Then, extract E2M-0-0390-00WW-1-2-emmc_appsboot_service.zip to get service bootloader file, and the extract password is "WLBGFIH123".

Step 2: Boot your phone to Download mode (Fastboot mode)

You can execute following command then connect your phone when powered off, or use any other method you're familiar with:

fastboot oem alive

Step 3: Flash service bootloader

fastboot oem dm-verity (md5_of_serial_number)

Surprised huh? This command is still usable on Nokia 2.1, even on Android 9 basis, not sure why.

For example, if your Serial Number is E2MGAHIKARICALYX, the md5 checksum is 0ab1b1e9f3aacc85849341cd5fb21412, then command will be:

fastboot oem dm-verity 0ab1b1e9f3aacc85849341cd5fb21412

You can simply Google a website to calculate md5 checksum of a string.

And flash service bootloader:

fastboot flash aboot /path/to/E2M-0-0390-00WW-1-2-emmc_appsboot_service.mbn
fastboot reboot-bootloader

Step 4: Unlock the bootloader

Your phone will reboot to service bootloader. Then grant unlock permission with following commands:

fastboot oem dm-verity (md5_of_serial_number)
fastboot oem fih on
fastboot oem devlock allow_unlock

Then unlock the bootloader:

fastboot oem flashing unlock_critical

When your phone is erasing userdata, then:

fastboot oem alive
(wait for triggering to download mode)
fastboot oem dm-verity (md5_of_serial_number)
fastboot oem fih on
fastboot oem devlock allow_unlock
fastboot oem unlock-go

All done. Your phone has unlocked bootloader.

Then reboot your phone to Download mode again and restore deviceinfo:

That wraps up the overall unlock procedure.

In case HMD will block this method, you can use EDL method to downgrade aboot partition from this article: https://xdaforums.com/nokia-2-1/how-to/nb1-collision-how-to-unlock-bootloader-t3938072/

Hello,

So I have a Huawei PRA-LA1C185B221 (GR3 2017), EMUI version 5.0.2 and Android 7.0

At first I tried to root my phone using apps like Kingroot and Kingo root, from the phone and from the laptop but without success,

After that, reading on the net I found that to root a Huawei phone I need to unlock the Bootloader, and since Huawei stoped this service I did not manage to do that.

And because I'm loosing hope to root my phone, I'm thinking about Line Age OS,

1. Do I need to unlock the bootloader in order to install the Line age OS?

2. Since the main goal is to get access to the root (I want to install and fully use apps like Termux and to manage the space by removing the vendor default apps), what's the best thing to do? Looking again for root or the change the os?

Knowing that I do not have any experience on rooting or os changing on the phones.
