[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] EeZeEpEe:
Older OLED screens, like the ones you mentioned, for sure had blue shift as bad as the Pixel 2 XL. But when you compared other $850+ phones with OLED screens from the the year before and same year as the Pixel 2 XL, the shift was definitely not as bad on those. It's actually kind of sad that a phone in 2017 still had the same bad blue shift as phones from 2013 and 2014.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
The point is that all OLED screens have it, regardless of vintage. It's a consequence of the screen manufacturers trying to cut their expenses by having displays share blue subpixels between adjacent pixels. Expecting there to be little to no blue shift on an OLED screen is like tilting at a windmill. Thus, the complaints are totally overblown.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] EeZeEpEe:
I'm not saying there's no shift in any other OLED screens. It was just still way more noticeable on the Pixel than any other OLED at the time. Hence, why it was such a big downside in the reviews. I'm looking at an S9+ and there's a red shift but it's a lot less than the blue shift in my Pixel 2 XL.[emoji2371]
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Watercycle:
In case you haven't decided yet, I was also contemplating between these two phones (among others) and decided on the Pixel 2 XL recently. It ended up being better in regards to price, speed, number of supported bands, waterproofing, etc.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] lil_ith:
Regarding the discussion about the blue, go check eBay and you will definitely notice that some of the phones have it glaringly bad compared to others. Yes OLED has it, but my first one had it really bad. My latest has a very light version of it so I am happy.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CasualDroider:
Hello,

I have an MTK device (Ixion MS155, with MT6737 chipset, to be pricese) that I flashed with a custom ROM. Unfortunately, being new to flashing, I carelessly didn't backup the NVRAM with the IMEI numbers, which got reset to Null. I know that this problem can be addressed through the MTK Engineer Mode. But to activate the right menu option, I need an auxiliary package usually called CDS_INFO.apk, which was not included in the ROM. I found some versions of that package online, but they don't seem compatible with my specific device and/or ROM combination (one version almost works, but it seems that it was compiled against a different Android API/ABI version). This is not a very popular device model, so there are not many ROMs available for it, and I've not yet found one that is capable of running Engineering Mode with the right menu options.

Now, my main question is this: I did find a repository on GitHub (can't post a direct link: user Danile71, repository android_kernel_zte_run4g_mod, path /tree/master/mediatek/packages/apps/CdsInfo) with the source code for CDS_INFO.apk (as well as other low level packages like EngineerMode.apk itself). What could really help me is compiling these packages against the Android 7.1 API/ABI (which I believe would be API version 25). Now, I don't have any direct experience building APK packages from source. Could some kind soul help me out and build an appropriate version of these packages? CDS_INFO.apk and EngineerMode.apk would be sufficient for my purposes, but they might have some other internal dependencies.

Please let me know if there's a better subforum where to direct this request. Thank you in advance for any help!

Hi all,

I tried searching xda forums but didn't find a place to ask the question. I have Verizon Palm phone 2018 model, but since Palm released this phone as standalone and sells on their website.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bensdeals:
There seems to be very little discussion on the Palm Phone PVG100 here on XDA. We should start to see a lot more people on here looking to customize it, since it's a bargain (1/4 retail) as a refurb on eBay. I just picked one up and am curious if anyone has unlocked the bootloader, loaded TWRP, and rooted this thing.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] protocol6v:
I too am looking for a rom for this. I picked one of these up from verizon, and have been using it on tmobile with no problem, but want to get rid of the Verizon apps and branding.

Also, there seems to be MUCH room for improvement on battery life if the ROM is cleaned up.

It's a really nifty little device, just needs some TLC.

I was able to get to the bootloader via typical ADB commands, but can't locate any kind of ROM dump for these. I'm really surprised there isn't more discussion about these little buggers.

Palm PVG100

Hi everyone

I'm trying to modify my Palm too and it's curious to see that no information nor material is available online anywhere :confused:

I've started a new thread:

https://xdaforums.com/android/help/palm-pvg100-pepito-development-t3971141

I was able to do something, but I still need help with what i say in my thread.

Basically I would like to take a full backup image of the device before starting tinkering with it, but I can't figure out how to make QPST software (Qualcomm Product Support Tool) show the content of the eMMC memory...

Anyone's help or collaboration for this project would be appreciated a lot!

Thanks!

We're you actually in the bootloader or recovery? I haven't been able to get into bootloader on mine. Any success unlocking bootloader?

---------- Post added at 06:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:00 PM ----------

Are you sure you want to use QPST. I have used it before to unlock LTE bands on a watch, but not for anything with the images / backups. I think the progression is unlocked bootloader, twrp compiled and loaded, then root. I also haven't seen the Pepito source code anywhere. Without that I'm not sure you will get far. I think the biggest hurdle right now is unlocking bootloader.

I've tried many root tools, nothing works.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bensdeals:
If you do boot into recovery, do not run Emergency Download Mode. You'll have to let the battery slowly die before you can do anything with your device.

Clarifications

Ok, thank you for your comments, guys, I really appreciate it.

Please feel free to correct me at any time, because I might make mistakes.

Just to make things clear:

I don't know exactly what you mean by "getting into the bootloader"; what I can tell you is that I was able to get into recovery and that in Settings->System->Developer Options (I'm sure you know that they are unlocked by tapping many times on the buid number), the Palm PVG100 (Pepito) has a switch that says "OEM Unlocking (Allow the boot loader to be unlocked)"; can you please comment on this?

It's not mandatory to use QPST, any solution is good for me (by the way, ONE OF THE PURPOSES FOR WHICH I WANT TO HACK INTO THE PHONE IS TO UNLOCK ITALIAN BANDS LIKE YOU!), but, as you say, no ROM exists on the web, so we have to find a way to extract the phone ROM and to decompile it (do you agree?).

TWRP doesn't exist for this phone, but, to compile it we need to extract protected files from the phone, right? (Please let me know if you know of a method to compile it without root access, nor ROM files)

In my opinion FIRST STEP IS TO HAVE A BACKUP IN CASE OF A BRICK, BEFORE STARTING TINKERING WITH RECOVERY, BOOTLOADER, PARTITIONS, ROM, FLASHERS AND ROOTING! (No?)

About EDL mode the problem is non-existent, I found out that, while in EDL mode, the Pepito can be restarted 100% of the time keeping the power button pressed for 2 minutes (120 seconds) (you can use a tight rubber band for this or any other trick), please test it ;)

I've just had an idea, which requires strong reverse engineering skills. I have 2 Pepito phones; the first one has the most recent version of the software (1AGN), while the second one has the PREVIOUS ONE (1AGL) (see following link: https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-221025/ )

This update must be doing something at an elevated privilege level. What if one sniffs what tnis update is doing when I force the update or reverse engineers the package obtained from the mother company as soon as it gets downloaded? Might it have information on how to sign software to make stock recovery ADB sideload fuction accept them? Or maybe provide us with information on how to enable write operation on protected partitions?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bensdeals:
Ok. I can answer some of your questions here.

1. You haven't been in the bootloader, I'm not sure if there is one.

2. The OEM unlock bootloader in Dev options doesn't do anything but allow your phone to function (from that image) if you do unlock it. It's a security thing.

3. You unlock bootloader using fastboot commands, but Verizon is known for really locking down the bootloader.

4. I also have 2 phones on the different os versions as you have for a similar reason. I was hoping the root tools (kingroot, kingoroot, etc..) would be able to root one of them. Not the case. Both are solid from the standpoint of using standard root tools. I haven't seen many of them succeed after Android 7.1 anyhow.

5. Are you sure your bands are not already unlocked? Even if you get QPST to unlock the bands, it may not contain any data. So you will need to find another device with those bands unlocked to copy the data from (and that still may not work well). At this point I stopped my unlocking of bands project, as I'd didn't want to make a mistake and cook my brain. There has been very little success with band unlocking unless those bands already contained the data to function. Be careful with QPST.

6. I'm not a developer, so I can't really help with anything you are looking to do, but this is an amazing device and deserves the attention it needs to be rooted for at the very least better power management. Maybe underclocking.

How can I achieve this?

Please tell me all steps in detail

Thank you very much in advance!

They gave me a list of useless suggestions:

If you are a WhatsApp user and would like to sync your WhatsApp messages between your Palm and another device, you can use WhatsApp Web on one of your devices. WhatsApp allows an account to be signed into the mobile app on one device and another device on WhatsApp Web simultaneously. To setup WhatsApp Web, visit web.whatsapp.com to get started.

Sep 22, 23:42 PDT

Hi Francisco,

I'm sorry for my unclear response. Are you using WhatsApp on another mobile device, in addition to your Palm?

Have you tried whitelisting the app in the Life Mode advanced menu? Try this out: https://palmsupport.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360021806871-I-am-having-issues-with-notifications

Then I sent them various screenshots showing the settings under which the problem still occurs; I attach a zip file with all the screenshots to this message, can you please have a look at it and help me with your experience, since Palm is not responding?

The behavior is like Whatsapp service gets killed from the background or notifications are held, because notifications come in if they come some seconds after I lock the screen, but if I wait, nothing comes in
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bensdeals:
When lifemode is on and screen is off, my assumption is everything is off. If you read the 'whitelisting' in lifemode only allows notifications to work in those apps when the screen is on.

the snapdragon chip will always have all the bands! The only limitation for enabling a disabled band I've seen is 'lack of antennas' no clue exactly what that means, I guess there can be different antenna lengths for different bands. Also as I've seen the lack of data for the bands to operate in qpst

Last time I used it it had to be flashed after ROM and gapps and after you had first booted into system at least once, not sure on the safety test bit as it don't bother me but there are magisk modules or edits to the buildprop that can get round that.
