[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nuc13us:
I happen to have some extra free time tonight, so I'll dig into this some more. I've never used any recovery software for these phones (QPST), but I've read there's a few different programs designed to extract the firmware. However, use caution when downloading any of them. From my brief time doing research thus far on them, I've noticed a lot of malware disguised as the real programs.

I'll post an update later after I've spent some more time digging.

Side note:. If you've never heard/used an application called "Bugjaeger" you should look into it. I used it often (free version) and was able to extract more information about this phone than I could using any other 'traditional' method. Also, it's a phenomenal way to root/debug phones on the fly considering you only need the 2 phones and an OTG cable...cheers.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lllexcin:
awesome, I'm using bugjaeger, from another phone, have fastboot

just recently acquired a unimax

good-luck
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ClaireCameron:
Yes I have the same problem.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lllexcin:
I'm probably going to wait for someone to post a back-up of the phone... but I noticed that the phone has project tremble where a different rom might be flashed 64 bit a

where this one has a lot of patches, that might make it difficult to root

it has vbmeta, which can be modified with a p.c

most people who flashed ended up with belt loops !!

because of the difficult modifications to the vbmeta file img ??

if anyone has any tips, greatly appreciated..
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nuc13us:
I've made a backup of the phone using the bugjaeger app. Will gladly upload after I scan through to make sure there's no personnfo on it. Also take notice of this screenshot. My boot.img files along with the associated naming for our phone. Sadly I cannot download either of them for whatever reason.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] llexcin:
have a p.c great download software, make a romdump

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androiderz:
This phone is treble compatible, so a GSI rom should work - problem is we need drivers for the SoC. As far as I can tell the QM215 is under the MSM8937. I haven't had time with testing this to be sure. As far as TWRP, it will have to be ported in using a phone with similar specs (CPU and GPU) there are a few out there but none of them had TWRP support either. Needless to say, it will be tough to get this phone rooted but I believe possible even without a native stock recovery and ROM.

Specs:

CPU: Qualcomm QM215 Snapdragon (Snapdragon 425 variant)

GPU: Adreno 308

Treble Compatible

SoC: MSM 8937

This EDL programmer should work: prog_emmc_firehose_8937_lite.mbn

Will also need Qualcomm USB drivers: Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008

TWRP: GSI recovery + twrp port from a device with similar specs

Ill update later with results and links if I can confirm working.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androiderz:
Update: Using QFIL, it might be possible to pull the entire partition data. However, I have not been able to find an EDL programmer that works for this chipset: MSM8937 (QM215). Without a working programmer, it is not possible to pull partition data nor flash firmware or recovery. Here is a list of the ones I have tried so far:

prog_emmc_ firehose_8937_alc.mbn

prog_emmc_ firehose_8937_ddr_004f0e1_hisen.mbn

prog_emmc_ firehose_8937_ddr_blu.mbn

prog_emmc_ firehose_8937_ddr_hisen.mbn

prog_emmc_ firehose_8937_ddr_lenovo.mbn

prog_emmc_ firehose_8937_ddr_xiaomi.mbn

prog_emmc_ firehose_8937_ddr_xiaomi1.mbn

prog_emmc_ firehose_8937_ddr_xiaomi2.mbn

I have tried programmers from other chipsets as well (just for kicks) but the bottom line is we are not going to be able to get root access without the correct programmer. Any help is appreciated.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nuc13us:
I've spoken with the phones tech support and was told that they will unlock the phone after one year. So at least we know there's some sort of hope in the future. I'll be getting some new equipment (UMT & NCK box) soon. Hopefully this does trick.

Root my u693cl
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Post #74
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disneytoy:
I have the Assurance Wireless U693CL with unlimited data through the T-Mobile network I mainly use this as a hotspot. I also have a Note 5 on regular Sprint/T Mobile network. So they both use the same LTE tower.

I find that using the U693 CL, some websites are slow or never load?

They work fine on the Note. Example I tried logging into my Autodesk account. and nothing ever loads. Sometimes I use a program Jdownloader to DL Youtube videos. On the Note 5, they "Parse" quickly and download lightning fast. On the U693, I've watched ot spin for an hour on Parsing the URL before I can Download the video. It does delay but downloading eventually works.

I could not find where to set the DNS to 1.1.1.1 (cloudflare) in the settings. But I think it is more than a DNS issue.

I even found going to Aliexpress or even Kohls the page never loads. Then I hotspot using my Note and all is well.

So same T-mobile network. Same tower. What can be in the settings causing this?

I want to put a custom ROM on this and see if that fixes things.

I don't know enough about internet protocols to diagnose what could be "blocking" or slowing these things?

Example, I have Nord VPN app installed. I can't even get it to connect.

Weird.

But as a free hotspot I have no complaints. I have Youtube running throughout the day on my PC connected to it.

Any thoughts.

Thanks!

Max

[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] RandomJazz:
Hello everyone,

I am not sure if this is the right subforum for this, so I would like to apologize in advance.

I recently updated my Exynos S20 Ultra to the latest update and I have been experiencing slugginess.

Apps used to launch immediately after tapping on them, after the update I get a "loading" screen (usually light/dark background with either the logo or not of the app launching).

Also, sometimes the phone gets a bit choppy while scrolling, on social media apps mostly. (not that much though)

Not super major issues, but it gets a bit annoying. Since the phone is a month old and before the update I wasn't experiencing anything like these, maybe some minor choppiness from time to time but that's acceptable.

Last but not least, it's the first time the phone would do an "optimizing apps" processing after installing the update and before booting up.

Anyone experiencing anything similar? Is the app loading thing normal? Or my OCD kicks too hard that I am noticing everything?

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] tokyoahead:
Hey guys, just wanted to share my WebIS support experience with you :-)

I bought WebIS PocketInformant some time ago, and now installed it on my Diamond. When you switch the software to full screen, the menu is gone, and its impossible to get it back even after a restart, or soft-reset.

I go on the web and search, check the manual, their support site and FAQ, but cannot find anything. The only things I found is that some of the buttons should switch it off, and a restart of the software, which is not the case on the diamond.

So since I was not able to switch off the full screen I send a support request to WebIS:

They answered quite quickly:

Strange. I thought I checked that one. I am going back there, and filter the search for PocketInformant and windows Mobile, and not one single question/Answer regarding the "Full Screen" mode.

So I write back:

And they reply, one day later:

Ok, let's see.... I do not have that software button however. and I did not hide the tabs, I just clicked on "Full screen" in the menu. And where is that FAQ entry now?

So I write back:

This time, the answer takes two days to reach me:

So I go to the advanced search and filter for Pocket Informant, windows Mobile and search for "Soft key" - nothing.

I write back:

Now, I get the following answer:

How is that supposed to help? Isn't that what I was asking for since the beginning? that they help me with the problem?

By now I did a hard reset and reinstalled the software.

Of course, I am not touching the full screen button again. And I am not contacting their support again for troubles either.

Clearly, the Diamond has a disadvantage in applications that rely on the soft buttons to work. There should be a tool to simulate the buttons with the volume buttons or else to fix that.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] marisa4755:
I've just had a look on their forum and this seems similar to your problem (and they recommend a reg edit solution)

see post 2 http://www.pocketinformant.com/Forums/index.php?showtopic=12917

Hope this works for you
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] tokyoahead:
thanks for the help and pointing this out to me.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] marisa4755:
Maybe you could post back here if the reg edit works? It might help someone else with the same problem or considering whether to buy the application.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] tokyoahead:
well... I fixed it before with a hard-reset and currently I do not plan to use the full screen anymore since only regedit can undo it, and thats simply too complicated. If I try it and it does not work, I have to hard-reset the device again.

But the thread you have from the WebIS the person had it fixed through it, so I assume it should work :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] wetroads:
I had this issue on my Touch Dual, using a hardware button (like camera) takes it out of fullscreen mode...

Their support was pretty useless for me also, I found the answer on another forum...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] allenf:
A solution for the Diamond is to assign your Send key (Button 1(hold)) as <Left Softkey>.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] akac:
Yeah, our support guy has been a bit flaky lately. Honestly I think he just got tired of things after seven years. Must be why he resigned at the end of July. I'm sorry that that happened - though. Unfortunately it doesn't make real-world sense to use other buttons like volume control to get out of full screen mode. The Diamond is just not a good full screen mode device without some sort of gestures or other method to get out of it.

I'll definitely be looking for a way to add a button or something as a way to get out of full screen.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Wizardous:
Reg edit

The regedit works on the Diamond.

I've exported the PI-registry, edited the "FullScreen"=dword:00000001

into "FullScreen"=dword:00000000

and imported the registry ==> problem solved :)
