Well, i just bought a htc s620 / excalibur yesterday. (i think, i'm going to receive it within this week, maybe).

I still got two questions :

1. is there a nameable difference between the official wm6 (offered from thc, already upgraded on the one i bought) ad wm 6.1 (except, that wm6.1 now has the home-panel?) - so, is there a NEED to upgrade to wm6.1?

and:

2. how can i create themes for this one? can i simply create wm6-qvga-landscape-themes for windows mobile ppc (using theme maker x) or is there any better program out, which supports qvga smartphones? or does the theme-style (sp-qvga / ppc-qvga) even matter anyway?
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
To answer the first question, i would upgrade to the new 6.1, its really awesome. Also, it includes many nice features like threaded texting, etc. And regarding the second question, i never really tried creating themes because the new 6.1 is loaded with nice themes.
[HTC Excalibur] AbsoluteDesignz:
ppc themes as far as I know won't work with a landscape device..they either won't load or will come out distorted...a good program with a lot of custom landscape themes is Facade from SBSH...they have a trial (14 day i believe) and a pay version (not too expensive) and before I upgraded to 6.1 I use to use it a lot...it'll work with 6.1.
[HTC Excalibur] GJSmith3rd:
Yep - you will definitely want to upgrade to the WM6.1 ROM. No matter what cooked ROM you use, the basic improvements to 6.1 over 6 are numerous with things like PIE copy & paste and zoom in and out and customizable home page. I personally don't use the sliding panel home screen but many love it.
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
Oh yah the copy and paste feature is awesome :)
[HTC Excalibur] satani:
well, i will keep thinking of a possible upgrade to 6.1 (but, i think, i will keep the pre-installed WM6, because it is shipped in german, and i already have an english x50v with 6.1, and as it's a smartphone, i'd like to keep it my native language).

And as for themes : is the theming still divided in color-theme and bakground-image (which can be put sinlge in as well to any existing theme, as it was in SP2003SE) - i was using a voq professional for now.

if that's the way, SP-Themes work, i may "only" have to create qvga-landscape-images and that's all.

but only, if i can still edit the internal colors / colorsheme with V2R home screen editor. (i think, it's nearly the same app, as homeEdit is, which i used for theming on the voq.).

And as i also have the mentionned Dell Axim x50v (mostly always near me, as i use it as mp3-player), i have a pda, with which i go online, if there's a free spot around. So there may be no real need to go online whith this SP, so I may use it only the way it is - as a phone, for appointments/reminders and a few games.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Vivek Macha:
I am on binary 10.:(

Is there any possibility to revert back to oreo.

I hate everything about one UI Pie.

Soo this is my last try, never buying samsung phone ever again.

The question is, Why is it impossible to downgrade?

Is is encrypted or is it that there are not many developers to work on samsung devices?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] stonedpsycho:
Simple answer, no.

I believe you can't downgrade due to security policy updates.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] BluePhnx:
No you can't!

Bootloader will check the version number and if it is 9 and below it will tell Odin to show FAIL CHECK Binary message and it won't continue to flash anything.

Even if you root your phone you can not downgrade your bootloader!

No one has found the keys or the info needed to make it downgrade. Samsung added self checks so that it doesn't downgrade due to security concerns!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Googleme35:
How about if you flash a different firmware like Verizon firmware and your T-Mobile /MetroPCS for unlocking bootloader.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] BluePhnx:
On SM-N950U/U1/W You CAN NOT UNLOCKED your bootloader period!

Doesn't matter what firmware from which Carrier it won't unlock bootloader since they are all the same firmware just with different CSC'S and No changing CSC'S won't unlock bootloader either so don't ask.

The ONLY note 8 phones that can be UNLOCKED are SM-N950F/ N/ F/DS exynos models and SM-N9500 Chinese snapdragon models and no you can not use SM-N9500 firmwares on SM-N950U/U1/W Samsung made enough changes that it would brick your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Vivek Macha:
Finally managed to get Android Oreo back on my samsung Note 8 N950F.

My device Info:- Samsung Galaxy note 8 SM-N950F

Unlocked the boot loader and flashed TWRP recovery, then installed OREO S9+ LIGHT ROM(LOV THIS ROM).

WOW I never thought i could run Oreo on a boot loader binary version 10.

Got my old camera back, & the device is fast just like new.

Only thing is tripped e-fuse and Warranty void= 1, which means Samsung pay and secure folder will not work forever.

Anyways did not use samsung pay or secure folder, So im not really bothered.

Link for custom ROM click here https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-note-8/development/rom-lightrom-t3768385
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] BluePhnx:
Read this thread to get secure folder working:

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-note-8/development/secure-folder-patch-custom-rom-t3949878

Hopefully it was added to lightrom but if not you can do it.

Good luck!

I have a question, do you think that camera it's better on Oreo? I think that samsung with updates just destroied our camera!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Vivek Macha:
Taking photos is quicker than my brother's Note 9.

The camera is very snappy now,Much cleaner photos ,Sharper, Quality of the photos is amazing, Just the way it was when i first got the phone. I even compared it with my brother's Samsung galaxy note 9 running on Android 10 One UI 2.0, My Note 8 is taking photos quicker than the Note 9 now(My bro was shocked). Samsung is deliberately slowing down phones via updates & even blocking ways to downgrade to previous stock official OS, just to keep us upgrading to their new phones.

I just downgraded to oreo because of the shutter button zoom feature, The feature which is not found in any phones currently.

Back to awesome photography again.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] zyxw-androidiani:
That's great thank you for your answer. I just saw some old photos that I taked with my note 8 on Oreo and thay was great and now on Pie i treid to take same photos but it's like impossibile.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] MystaMagoo:
So that's all you needed to do?

What version is the camera?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Vivek Macha:
Camera version is 7.6.78.

Yes that's all I did to go back to oreo.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] w4-u6r:
Since I've updated to Android 10, I note that whenver I connect to Wi-Fi, my S10e will connect to hao123, taobao, qq and baidu in China, even if I've done factory reset and disbaled many bloatwares.

If I block access to these domains, the phone will show the Wi-Fi as "Connected without internet" even though I can access webpages (but Google Play and GMail will not work).

Just wonder if anyone has similar issues and how these may be solved? BTW I'm using a THL firmware.

Thanks!

Are you using a china version rom? Use Hongkong version instead.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion] veryniceworld:
My Samsung Tab S6 got similar issue. I got that tablet from HK. At first, I thought that it would be caused by some 3rd party apps. However, those traffic are still there after I reset the tablet to factory default setting ...

I try to use netguard to check which app(s) generate those traffic but failed. Likely, those traffic caused by system apps. For now, I blocked those traffic via Pihole.

I have made some Boot Animations for Motorola phones and would like to share them with the community.

All Boot Animations have been posted on SOURCEFORGE and more would be added in the coming future. The designs have been separated into two folders and further organized inside each folder by version numbers starting with V1.

But you do know that Montana doesn't have stable android Q yet? Whatever

Still nice tho!
[Moto G5S  Themes, Apps, and Mods] PratyushJayachandran:
Actually I didn't know. The project was for Potter originally. Since it's for Full HD display, I made post for all Full HD moto phones. The files can be extracted and applied on Android Pie and below too. Just that the installer I made won't work. I had to pretty much make the installer from scratch and I'm not familiar with edify scripts. Android 10 has system as root so the location was different from all older Androids.

Let's see... I'll update if I can and post here.

Thanks for bringing to notice. I thought everyone was on 10 by now.
[Moto G5S  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Rush:
Well technically we Have Q, it's just not very good (Gsi Roms), still usable, but nothing in comparison (especially with bugs) to lineage or something, also, System as root development is actually main focus for Montana right now, thought I might mention that
[Moto G5S  Themes, Apps, and Mods] PratyushJayachandran:
The mounting of system partition is different for Android 10 and all the versions before it. The code was already convoluted to address the different locations of boot animation by different ROMs. I'll try. I guess some other Moto phones are also on Pie.
[Moto G5S  Themes, Apps, and Mods] PratyushJayachandran:
Files updated and now supports all custom ROMs regardless of Android version.

Thanks for helping me test it out :o
