[LG V30 Questions & Answers] hellodmo:
I originally tried 20h, and it locked the phone up when trying to load the camera. Originally, I had all sorts of LG IMS has stopped errors after using the standard TWRP restore, AND the camera didn't load, so I decided to restore 20h. I tried that, and the LG IMS issue went away, but the camera didn't work. So now I'm doing 20a->20f->20h in order to see if that restores. I'll be done with that in a few minutes.

I have no idea why this would have happened, and why the TWRP restore didn't work immediately. The TWRP install of LOS17 changed something that doesn't seem to be recoverable, and I have no clue how....
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] hellodmo:
Still not working. Just freezes. Every. Single. Time.

20a->20f->20h with master resets all around, etc. I'm stumped.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
You updated to Pie blobs and now are trying to downgrade back to Oreo.

Are you trying to use TWRP flashable zips?

You need to use Refurbish mode KDZ. Then Master Reset. You can use 20h.

Which dev patched LGUP are you using? Use the newer one from the Pie KDZ threads, like here:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=79971595&postcount=3

You will still have unlocked bootloader, but you'll lose TWRP. You'll need to then reinstall TWRP and the three root files. For that go by these instructions, even though you are back on Oreo. Ignore that it says you are on Pie. Use those newer encryption disabler files and the newer root check files.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] hellodmo:
Still doesnt work. Wondering if the rom somehow fried the hardware....
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Then try Partition DL with all partitions.

Please answer the question -- are you using the new Dev Patched LGUP?

Don't try to reinstall TWRP and root yet. Make sure the camera is back working on full stock firmware first.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] hellodmo:
Yes. Patched LGUP. Got some company over, but ill try the DL partitions later
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] hellodmo:
Okay, did the DL Partitions (our low-maintenance friends are awesome), but it still didn't do much. I'll hook it up to ADB soon. Looks like there may be a problem accessing some SQLite Log database, and I'm wondering if it's related....

If you have any other ideas at the moment, let me know. The same behavior persisted. The camera won't open and load.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] hellodmo:
Should I master reset after doing DL partitions?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] hellodmo:
[MENTION=3475147]SGCMarkus[/MENTION] Curious if you have any clue what's going on here. Did a search for one of the issues I was having and came across your github.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
Doesn't hurt, may help.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] hellodmo:
It seems like there's some kind of vendor file that might be corrupted. I may be asking for a file or two in a bit. I'll likely root it so I can access the file system properly in a non-readonly mode. Can't hurt it any worse at this point, unfortunately.

A master reset following Partition DL didn't do anything.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] hellodmo:
Okay, managed to get it working again. My guess is that there's something in the Nougat KDZ that sets up the camera, that might have been affected by something in the LOS17 ROM. tldr; I had to restore the US99810c KDZ file to get the camera to work again, and then I finished the rest of the steps to get everything in order again. Here's the complete breakdown of what I did, step by step. Some of these may be redundant to fix the issue, but I'm including them anyways.

Flash US99810C through Patched LGUP. <-- This is what gave me the camera back. The camera worked in Nougat, so I started flashing the oreo roms.

Flashed US99820A through Patched LGUP. <-- Did this for unlock and TWRP install.

Boot into system. Unlock developer tools. Turn on USB Debugging, and start debugging.

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img

fastboot boot TWRP.img

Swipe to allow modifications.

Wipe/Format.

Reboot to Recovery.

Restore previous working backup.

Boot to system - No sound. (I've been here before.)

Flash US99820F to fix sound.

Wipe.

Boot to system. Go through the setup. Verify sound capabilities.

Restore to previous working backup.

Clear Cache and Dalvik.

Boot into system. Verify camera and sound. Rock and Roll.

Say I'll never install another custom ROM again, but know I'm lying to myself, and I'll probably take this not as a warning, but as a confidence builder, which explains why I'm a software developer to begin with.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TOVOT:
I state that I am really new in smartphone modding, I am in Linux Arch (I could also use Windows, but I would prefer to use Linux); I have installed Heimdall, the device is not detected by my system, so if you can tell me some good guide for Android and Linux I would be grateful.

anyway: what are the ROMs you recommend me? should I also backup the system as it is? do you also advise me to change the kernel? What steps should I take before starting these procedures? It is possible to find a simple, up-to-date and active Custom ROM, which improves the use of the battery (which is a bit old but still working) and which eliminates all those factory app fastening (mostly useless (or replaces the necessary ones). with better and open-source apps)

moreover: is there a way to install Google in the smartphone without all the real connections, but only with: Play, Gmail, Search, YouTube? :rolleyes:

Since it is now complicated and expensive to get Bootloader code for Huawei devices with EMUI 9 or newer (even EMUI 8 firmwares from July 2018 and onwards), let's discuss tips for useful modding without root:

Ads and analitycs can be blocked by dns66 app:

https://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/app-dns66-source-host-ad-blocker-root-t3487497

Some configurational properties can be also modified without root:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=79249421&postcount=3

Again, you need adb and then SetEdit app (install from Playstore).

Give write permissions to SetEdit by adb:

adb shell pm grant by4a.setedit22 android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS

Open SetEdit, and therefrom Secure Table,

change Hide_Pocket_Mode value from 1 to 0

I've similarly enabled setting for Virtual HD sound in calls, see screenshots

Regarding to playing YouTube in background and blocking it ads, I've tried YouTube Vanced app, two versions v12.32.59 and the latest v14.21.54:

https://vanced.app/

YT Vanced can play in background and block ars (most important for me) and it comes with practically the same interface as standard YT applicatioon

It works almost the same as Magisk module YT Vanced, but the app does not require root and (unlike the Magisk module) it requires an additional MicroG app if you want to sign to your YT accoount.

Unfortunately, I was unable to makle it sign with MicroG 0.2.6.17455:

- If I try to Sign in from YT Vanced v14.21.54, it calls MicroG but MicroG was unable to sign to my existing YT account(s), popping out: Please Check your Network Connection, Tap to retry

(I've tested also with DNS66 switched off, to make sure it does not interfere)

- With MicroG installed, YT Vanced v12.32.59 crashes for me right away on starting (with MicroG not installed, it works fine)

There are few other replacements for the YT app like OGYouTube, TubeMate, iTube, or NewPipe, allowing download and/or playing in the background.

E.g., with iTube I was able to play in the background but also to login to the YT account (but interface is somewhat strange, user must get accustommed to)

However, ATM, I will stick with this latest YT Vanced v12.32.59, since I'm used to the very similar Vanced module on rooted phones

Logcat can be also enabled without root, install Logcat 4U from Google Play:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sam.logcat

and enable it Read Logs permission:

PIN can be also unlocked with ADB, if it e.g. happens that you by mistake remove/disable virtual keyboards (replace XXXX with your PIN):

Free of charge method for updating to Approved firmwares (not received yet by OTA) by HiSuite and Firmware Finder - no root, TWRP or unlocked boot loader required.

Original XDA post:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=78850439&postcount=1334

More details (Chrome can automatically translate from German):

https://www.android-hilfe.de/forum/...s-mit-hisuite-und-firmware-finder.930081.html

Note:

This method is similar in concept to HSTool (originating from FunkyHuawei) + HiSuite method:

https://xdaforums.com/mate-20-pro/how-to/manual-upgrading-mate-20-pro-bl-locked-t3905924

https://xdaforums.com/honor-view-20/how-to/hstool-upgrading-firmware-bl-locked-t3948040

https://xdaforums.com/huawei-p30-pro/how-to/guide-how-to-ota-update-p30-pro-wipe-t3953138

Both methods don't require unlocked Bootloader, both use patched, particular versions of HiSuite and trick the HiSuite to download/install a stock firmware but not from the Huawei server.

Differences:

- In the method here, phone must be running Firmware Finder, and FF triggers the Team MT server to provide download of selected firmware for HiSuite.

- In the HSTool method, HSTool provides the firmware to HiSuite.

Interesting:

MiXPlorer is able to read e.g. /system, /vendor and /proc partitions.

You can browse through, read textual files, copy to Internal memory.

Of course, cannot write to (delete, change, create new files, etc)

Also, it cannot read /data partition

Tested also with Terminal Emulator, it can do similar - see screenshots

Btw, even if the phone was rooted (again, it isn't, BL is locked), /system and /vendor partitions would still be read only (EMUI 9.1, EROFS) - but nevertheless, Magisk would supposedly be able to provide systemless hosts access to AdAway

Eg, Equilizer - Bass Booster is free.and does not require root:

There is even an easier way to substitute AdAway on a non-rooted device. Just define dns.adguard.com for your private DNS server - see a screenshot below

However, compared to AdAway or DNS66, here you cannot add your own blacklist and whitelist, and you have no freedom to choose between (or use several of them) hosts sources.

Be aware, I have encountered a WiFi hotspot where DNS requests outside were blocked, and as result, I was unable to resolve any domain name to IP address, and therefore unable to eg open any site in the browser - I had to disable private DNS as long as staying on that WiFi hotspot

The following way you can unlock the screen by ADB, but:

- ADB must be already enabled on the phone

- PC you are using must be already granted ADB usage

(Otherwise it would pop-up on the still locked screen where you cannot confirm)

First, verify ADB and enter the shell

adb wait-for-device devices
adb shell

At this point press Power button (if screen is ok, it would light up).

By the first command you swipe the screen (if screen is ok, you would see popup to enter the unlock pin/pass)

By the second command you enter your unlock pin/password:

input touchscreen swipe 930 880 930 380
input text <your-screen-unlock-pin-password>

At the end, exit the shell:

exit

So, I have two SIM cards (both locked by pin) and lock screen (all the same pins).

Keyevent 66 means Ok.

The following worked for me to unlock the phone on reboot - but you MUST wait to start until the MTP pops up on the PC:

adb devices
adb shell
input text 1234
input keyevent 66
input text 1234
input keyevent 66
input touchscreen swipe 930 880 930 380
input text 1234
exit

As said, on Huawei it works without root.

---

Note:

On Xiaomi, phone must be rooted and ADB must be already given root access, hence instead of

adb shell

start with

adb shell
su

Also, on Xiaomi I didn't need to wait for MTP to pop-up on the PC upon rebooting the phone - I can start right away with ADB

I wish I would have known that WiFi calling wasn't supported on unlocked Note 10 + before purchase. I need WiFi calling and so I am trying to flash the T-Mobile firmware onto my Unlocked Note 10 +. The problem is that I am not getting any of the T-Mobile branding or features after flashing. I think this is because it doesn't recognize my SIM as being a T-Mobile SIM. I use Mint Mobile which is a MVNO running off the T-Mobile network. If I would have just kept my Google Pixel I would have all the features that I need that T-Mobile offers such as the WiFi calling and HD voice.

Is there any way for force the device to enable the T-Mobile specific features available in the firmware? I am thinking about going and pickup a prepaid T-Mobile SIM to see if it will activate the features with that.
