Notice on using MultiKeyHook

Hi All,

A small update on my post #131 above: I've noticed that whenever MultiKeyHook is active, the volume controls, which are to be remapped to the zoom function whilst using the camera, keep turning the volume up and down.

So, I've decided to deactvate MultiKeyHook and stick to the simple solution as of exiting PQzII whenever I want to take a picture or video, and starting it again right afterwards.

Cheers!

camera problem

hi,

can somebody guide me why my camera isn't working. I installed this rom it was working in the start but now its not. can it be fixed or I have to go back to the last ron. which I don't want. help needed.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] casouzaj:
Do you have PQzII (or any other keyboard remapping application) running? If so, just exit it. Your camera should work fine afterwards. You can reactivate your remapping software after using the camera.

However, if it is not your case, I'm sorry for not being able to help you any further.

Just my 2 cents...

Cheers!

camera problem

hi casouzaj,

thanks for that multikey thing. but now I m facing that volume key prolem. can u plz guide me how can I remove that keyboard thing. I don't think I ever installed any. if I have then tell me where can I go n remove it because I don't see it in remove programs.

thanks n sorry for the trouble.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] derawala:
ok I got ur point but can u tell me; how can I hunt that sotware down. I have icontact by burt, s2u2 n softrestart installed n ifonz which I m deleting but its not going away. other then that I havnt installed any.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] casouzaj:
I have PQzOII installed. It shows in "Remove Programs" setting as "Gzh PQzII for Kaiser" (the last version I have installed). As I don't know any other keyboard remapping application, I can't give you any advices on it.

I don't have to unistall it. Whenever I want to use the camera, I simply exit PQzII beforehand, and run it again after finishing taking pictures/videos.

But, as you've said you have not installed any of them, the only thing I have in mind is that you hard reset your device. Your device will return to the factory status. You'll lose all data and programs stored on your device. So, it is strongly adviseable to backup your relevant data beforehand.

To perform a hard reset, hold both the Fn (blue) and the call (green) keys, and press the reset pin with your stylus. As soon as you release the keys, you'll notice that a screen will come up asking for confirmation. Confirm with the correct soft key (the left one, if I'm not mistaken).

Cheers!

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] casouzaj:
If you have Telstra's 1.73 (WM6.1) beta ROM flashed into your device, a hard reset won't return it to the stock WM6 ROM. It will simply erase all your private data and settings.

Original rom from imate ultimate 9502

Hello everybody.

I really want to upgrade my imate ultimate 9502 to this beta rom from Telstra.

But before i do that i want to be sure that i can go back to the baked rom i have now. In case i should have any problem with my phone.

Can someone post the rom in exe file that first came with his phone?

I already found somewhere a bin file but i don't know how to convert that to a exe file.

Thanks to all the bright people of this forum.

Hard Recet:

well i did try to do the reset. i pushed the fn button and the green button but i couldnt find the reset button. and there is a button on the top of the phone i pressed it but it didnt work... //.well i need some more education my friend...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] casouzaj:
The reset pin is a small hole located at the upper right corner of the qwerty keyboard (at the right of the right soft key). You have to press it with the stylus pen, while keeping the Fn and the Call keys pressed. As soon as you press the reset pin, release the two keys. You should see a white screen asking for confirmation. "Yes" should appear in the left softkey.

Cheers!

Can u, please re post the link to Rapidshare or some other DL service as no matter what i do i can't DL this ROM version :(

Hi All,

I have a 8502 with 6.1. Since flashing I have found battery drain to be a lot more. I was wondering if its possible to get GPS on the communication screen again, and any other tips to improve battery life?

Also, any recommendations for GPS software? Am absolutely loving this phone, previous phone was the Jasjam and mini.

does anyone know a program or a way to backup my current ROM on my 9502 before i try the new 6.1 ROM ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] casouzaj:
I run SpriteBackup, to perform a full backup on a regular basis, because I have the bad habit of installing programs all the time, and some of them just freeze my device in a way that a hard reset is the only way I find to get it working again.

However, I think there is not much point in fully backing up your 9502 for the sole reason of flashing WM6.1 into it, because, as far as I know, there is no stock ROM image (WM6) available for reflashing it, in case you decided to roll back. If you flash WM6.1, it will be for good.

You could run PPCPimbackup to save your PIM data prior to flashing Telstra's ROM. It will restore them fine, afterwards.

SpriteBackup has a ROM upgrade backup & restore mode, but I just don't trust it much, because we're talking about heavy image changes (WM6 to WM6.1). I'm afraid you could experience laggings and hangings after restoring all your data and programs. Not very sure, though.

I'm getting old. As usual, I might be heavily wrong in all my postings... :)

Just my 2 cents...

Cheers!

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] umit_1:
thanks again Carlos

well its flashed to this Beta rom. had a bit of a scare half way through flashing, the virus scanner was re-enabled automaticlly and it crashed the update. nice red error message on screen :(

had to pull the battery out of the phone to reset it and try again and luckily it worked.

rom seems much better, although i haven't really played with it. definitely seems to leave you with more free ram and no signs of the memory leak i had with the original rom.

don't like the new sms conversation mode so ill do some reading so see if i can change it back to the old style.

so far so good, a definite improvement.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] casouzaj:
Glad that you are enjoying the beta ROM. I have never really tried the stock ROM. I flashed the beta one right after charging my device for the first time. I did it because, even before having received my machine, I read awful posts everywhere about the stock ROM: memory leaks, slow operation, no SDHC support, etc., etc., and I never regreted my decision, really.

Everything just works as they are supposed to !

Cheers!

8g SDHC

Can anyone confirm whether the new ROM upgrade can use 8G SDHC?

Thanks.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] casouzaj:
Yes, it can handle an 8GB mcroSDHC Card. I have a Sandisk one in its slot all the time without any problems!

If you have a normal microSD card inserted, remove it, insert the SDHC one in your 9502, and give it a soft reset.

Cheers!

Gotta tell ya that this phone - with 6.1 - has been better than any WM phone I have had.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Kipps:
I find it really hard to believe that the "service centres" have the new ROM.

My phone was away with the Telstra National Repair Centre in the past week, and it was yet again flashed to the same old WM6.0 ROM. Not sure which third party repairer it went to, but it definitely didn't get WM6.1.

I've had enough with the issues of this crap phone and I don't want to flash it to WM6.1 in fears they'll deem the warranty voided.

Fact is, if they have a working beta firmware that works better than the released firmware, why the hell not release it?

Imate is a lousy manufacturer. Stay clear of them.

Hi guys. I've searched every post about heating problems but I have a question about S20/S20+.

When I use it for basic stuff like Facebook and whatsapp, my phone battery temperature gets 35c after a few minutes. If I open intensive cpu apps, it raises to 39, 40. I am using Ampere app to monitor.

Is that normal? Do I have to worry about it? I live in Brazil and ambient temperature inside my house is 27c.

Can you share your battery temp here after using the device for a while?
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] Revontheus:
35c to 45c is well within the thermal limits of your device. Naturally if you live in a tropical area the ambient temperature is going to be higher and thus would have a negative impact on the device's temperature.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] goTouch:
Just realized that if device hits 40c Celsius, it automatically turns off 120hz. Just happened with me. If I use camera for more than 15 minutes, it hits 40
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] Revontheus:
That's normal. I'd be more worried if the device didn't do that automatically. Prolonged camera usage (esp 4k) causes a lot of devices to heat up regardless of the brand.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krzeszny:
Hi. Nobody could answer my Reddit thread, so I figured out I would ask here instead.

I'm using this guide: https://www.reddit.com/r/nexus5x/comments/5hj0r0/bootloop_after_lg_replaced_mainboard_bootloader/

My device is already rooted (on HavocOS - a big mistake because it's unstable and not fully functional), with the Big cluster disabled, TWRP 4-core recovery and the ElementalX kernel.

I want to install the latest stock, unrooted ROM because it's more secure (I suppose), stable and probably faster than any custom ROM. At the same time, I need ElementalX to underclock and 4-core TWRP in case of emergency.

I have 3 questions:

The guide tells me to install a modified boot.img that disables forced encryption. Why would I have to do it? I don't want to root it but at the same time, there's no RPMB - the bootloader locks itself with each restart. Do I need the modified boot.img anyway? Nobody explained thus far why it is needed.

As mentioned, the device locks its bootloader each time it's restarted (no RPMB). This guide https://xdaforums.com/nexus-5x/general/guides-how-to-guides-beginners-t3206930 says that locking the bootloader when custom recovery is installed can result in a brick. I have custom recovery installed right now. Should I flash stock recovery with a boot.img before rebooting to be safe?

Can custom kernels be flashed through TWRP with a locked bootloader or should I do it through fastboot?

Oh, and by the way, I've been using my Nexus 5X with occasional restarts but no bootloop for 2 years (after replacing the motherboard with a used one that I bought, but it doesn't have RPMB). When it restarted on its own, I panicked and disabled the Big cluster using the fix but I think the restarts are caused by the unstable HavocOS ROM with an incompatible (too recent) vendor image.

[Xiaomi Mi 10 Questions & Answers] tsongming:
Here is the Aliexpress link

The discount brings the phone down to $ 719.00 - 744.99 which while high, is better than the recent announcements that this phone was going to cost $999 or more!

Seriously, who would by a Xiaomi phone at that price? Especially when Xiaomi phones are always missing a lot of bands, and we already know that this one is missing bands. If Xiaomi expects premium prices then they should offer 100% of the same bands offered by Samsung, One Plus, iPhone, and Google. Because at those prices there is no excuse to short change customers on anything. Including IP ratings, HD streaming and locally available, and solid customer service. Since we know those things are not yet available, this phone will fail horribly at selling units, that is unless they drop the price.

It's disappointing to see Xiaomi, who have always been about building quality phones at a low price follow in the footsteps of Huawei and others by substantially marking up the prices.

I had planned on buying this unit but now will wait and see what happens. Keep in mind that a Snapdragon 865 is only 25 % more powerful that a Snapdragon 855. While the Snapdragon 855 is 45% more powerful than the Snapdragon 845.

Finally, there is no doubt that this is a fantastic phone. Congrats to Xiaomi for building their best phone yet. But as I mentioned it is missing the things needed to be eligible for top shelf status.

Something else to consider: The phones are definitely cheaper if ordering from China, here is the issue with that : Miui 12 will be released sooner rather than later, and the Global version of Miui has been rumored to be evolving into a very different experience from the traditional Miui.
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Questions & Answers] bigoliver:
Huge thanks for your reply, it has really helped me.

I didn't realise the global version would miss any bands (I thought that was just the Chinese version.)

I've now checked the official Xiaomi page and the global version of the mi 10 is missing 3400MHz (Band 42)

Band 42 is used by all the UK network for 5g. (Including my network 3uk)

I'm not going to spend extra money getting a 5g phone if it's got a 5g band missing.
