[LG V40 Questions & Answers] aw2a:
I was in a similar situation two days ago; I tried crossflashing my V405UA to T-Mobile and got stuck with no signs of life other than 9008 mode. After a few hours of panicking I was able to figure out how to use QFIL and got things back up and running. I did accidentally wipe my serial number and MAC address in the process from the looks of it, but my IMEI is still intact.

So, I know the V405TA is different from the V405UA and other variants, but I think you can probably get it back through 9008 mode. Feel free to send a PM if you'd like to talk more about it, just keep in mind that I'm far from an expert on any of this. The steps I took were basically:

- Get QFIL and the programmer from here: https://xdaforums.com/lg-v40/how-to/unlock-lg-v40-via-9008-root-t-mobile-t4042207

- Backup the necessary partitions (I didn't do this and now I don't have a S/N or MAC address although my IMEI is fine; I'm not sure which partitions you need to save but definitely look into that).

- Grab a copy of https://github.com/ANEP-ET/kdztools, it's a fork of kdztools that can generate rawprogram*.xml files.

- Get a KDZ from somewhere and use the tools to extract it and generate rawprogram*.xml files.

- You might need to edit rawprogram1.xml through rawprogram6.xml; IIRC I had to add "B." to the start of all of the filenames in rawprogram1.xml, "C." to the start of all of the files in rawprogram2.xml, and so on. I didn't have to change rawprogram0.xml.

- Add all of the rawprogram*.xml files in QFIL, I don't think you need a patch.xml (I clicked "Cancel" when asked for a patch file and everything still worked).

- Flash and you should hopefully be good to go.

Keep in mind that I don't really know what I'm doing so be careful and use common sense, this is just what worked for me. Feel free to PM if you want to discuss or have questions and good luck!

Why would you want to flash a T-Mobile stock ROM?
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] aw2a:
I'd really like to get Android 10 on my V40, but I don't seem to get OTA updates since AFAICT I have an ATT variant that has been crossflashed to US Cellular (I got it on eBay). Unfortunately the only (stock) Android 10 ROM I can find is for the T-Mobile variant, so I figure I'd give it a go; I know that the T-Mobile variant is a bit different from the others but I thought I'd try anyway since I was curious. In the end, aside from some panic (and a missing S/N and MAC address) no harm was done and I learned a lot, so that's nice. And, hopefully, I can use what I learned to help other people in a similar situation now (even though I'm far from an expert).

4. I am sure it will void warranty of the phone but still, if i use it with lite version will warranty be intact

5. Can i use usb wifi module with M31

Looking for the responses. Thank you in advance.
[Android Head-Units] thanito:
Hello,

I am looking for a replacement of my comand 2.0 dx in my w463 Mercedes. The unit is the same with Mercedes w203 comand units.

Although an android mobile user since it's launch, I haven't really dug into Android car stereos. What I have learned so far is that most of them are more or less the same, just rebranded with slightly different hardware.

As I see it, my first option would be a px6 unit, however I am not sure of the differences in performance between px6/px5/8227L.

Are there any aliexpress brands that people would recommend?

Any things I should pay attention at?

Any forum members done this upgrade in this particular unit?

Cheers,

What is StuffKeeper?

It's an app that makes storing and finding things easy - things that you don't use often, but that can come in handy at any moment.

For example: tools, seasonal clothes, various accessories, spare parts, household items, etc.

We often misplace such things because we don't remember where we put them or who we gave them to. The search for these things can take a long time, and sometimes we just buy the new ones.

Stuff Keeper not only helps you find and store your stuff - it also saves your money!

- French language was added.

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] copong:
Just first of all, not familiar at all with this phone as it's my missus', not mine - I have a Nexus 6P which I have rooted, rommed, magisk'd etc.

Anyway, the phone is full-on stock, bootloader is locked and it started bootlooping today. It turns on, goes into the google logo on white background for a minute, then reboots. Rinse and repeat. I can get into the bootloader, but not into recovery (it just goes again into the google logo and bootloops).

There has been no software updates for months (it is on the latest update, maybe Nov or Dec 2019?) and I factory-reset her phone a month ago and it was all fine.

Power button definitely not stuck.

I can't switch-a/switch-b using fastboot as the bootloader is locked. Nor can I sideload the factory image for the same reason.

Putting the phone on the fridge (if anyone has had a 6P knows why) lets the phone boot and function for a minute, then it crashes with screen corruption. It sure looks like a hardware issue - on the Nexus6P with the exact same symptoms disabling the four big cores with a patch works around the issue. But this is not a 6P.

Long story short: is it permanently bricked, or is there anything that can be done?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] djared704:
As far as I know if you boot recovery, which "booting recovery" reads off the ufs chip, to get you data (like phone storage, efs, etc), and if it doesn't find this so called "ufs" chip, it will restart, since all it's a Qualcomm device, all Qualcomm devices do that. You may try booting twrp (I know bout the issues on 10), and if it restarts even after many times of booting, this will finally signal your UFS chip dying out on you.

The only solution to this since it's a hardware problem is to dismantle the entire device, and check out the storage chip (on the back of the board), and you'll need to use multiple tools to take it off, and tools to put it back on. At this point I cannot assist you because I don't microsolder, maybe talk with a technician who specializes in that.

The reason this may of happened is, if you bought the device used and the seller didn't say where it came from, could've been abused in various ways (dropped in water, splashed, etc) and condensation got to the chip

Otherwise if this is not true, or you bought device brand new, then my theory on the UFS chip dying out could be correct.

If it's a 128GB model, then this is erratically known for the Toshiba chips for just dying out of the blue.

Glad if I could help.

[Wing, P4350 Accessories] ChrisGrundy:
Hello everyone,

I recently invested almost $100 in a blue-tooth GPS receiver, the i-gotU model GT-200

Manufacturers web site here:

http://www.i-gotu.com/product/BT_GPS.html

I can easily pair it to my Wing (ROM Aserg 12) but I have not been able to make any GPS enabled software work with it.

this is what I have done so far:

-Pair the device

-Use control panel to assign a com port to the serial service on the device

-Use external gps control panel to point applications to the new comm port

-Open google maps and try to get gps data

After a while I gave up with google maps and tried other applications such as GPS-Mission and eventually GPS autodetect, wich scans all ports and tries all baud rates

So far not a single application has worked.

Has anyone else had experience with this particular receiver, or any other GPS receivers that can be of help here?

Thanks,

Chris

PD: I have already used search in this site and google. Found nothing, this receiver may be too new.
[Wing, P4350 Accessories] Audiopro:
1) Go back to Control Panel and disable the external GPS.

2) Go to Settings\Connections\Bluetooth

3) Select the COM Ports tab, You should be able to create a COM port 6 with your GPS device.

4) Open Google Maps

5) Go to Menu\Options\GPS Settings

6) Select Set Manually, COM 6, 9600 Baud.

7) Enjoy GPS!

You'll Have to set up each GPS program manually. I've never gotten the automatic settings to work.
[Wing, P4350 Accessories] ChrisGrundy:
thanks

Thanks, Audiopro.

I'll try that as soon as I get out of work ;)

Hi,

I've had this tablet for years and it got to a point where it is just paperweight (even Skype is broken for the version of Android 4.2.2. that is running). I've looked through XDA and internet in general and could not find any information on how to run TWRP or Clockwork Recovery Mod on this device as it is not officially supported. I have also not been able to find a suitable Android ROM. I've been particularly looking for Android 7 Nougat.

I have rooted the tablet using Framaroot (verified with Root Checker).

I have tried to install Clockwork Recovery Mod using ROM Manager.

I have tried to install TWRP recovery using TWRP official app and TWRP Manager.

I am aware of threads like https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=44660171&postcount=417 (How to install CWM on most rooted mtk devices) and I have not tried it yet.

Tablet details:

Lenovo IdeaTab S6000-F

OS: Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean (Kernel 3.4.5)

Build number: S6000_A422_101_025_131017_WW_WiFi

SW version: S6000_130419

HW version: Lepad S6000-F

Chipset: Mediatek MT8125 (ARM Cortex-A7)

I have found some articles on the web describing how to perform the upgrade but they are all out-of-date, i.e. links don't work to ROMs and no information on how to install Clockwork or TWRP. Does anyone know how to go about this? Even getting Android 4.4 KitKat to run on this would be a big step-up.

Because phone is powered by a MediaTek chipset, I think SP Flash Tool is the correct tool to flash a new ROM onto the phone, in conjunction with matching USB-driver provided by Lenovo for this phone.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qumat:
Thank you for your suggestion. Eventually, I managed to make a full backup of the stock ROM. Hopefully that means I will also be able to flash the tablet with a custom ROM. However, I am unable to find any for this device. Are there any options left other than building a version of Android (LineageOS or OmniROM) for this device myself?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 1890170:
[MENTION=10874633]qumat[/MENTION]

I'm not a ROM cook ( developer ) but as far as I know you need the specific source code for that device to compile ROMs. What would require MediaTek / Lenovo has made it public.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qumat:
Does that mean that there is nothing that can be done in this case?

I have managed to install ClockworkMod Recovery. Also, I found the source code for this tablet on the official Lenovo support website. I have tried to unlock the bootloader but regardless of what I do nothing happens. It seems as if the bootloader was not locked in the first place, there is no status displayed when I fastboot and none of the show version fastboot PC commands work. The PC connects without any issues, I can see the device ID both using adb and fastboot but unlock-related commands do nothing.

I now have the source code and installed ClockworkMod Recovery. Do I have everything I need to build LineageOS or OmniRom for this device? What is the best way I should go about doing it?

Look inside Android's system file named build.prop for entry ro.oem_unlock_supported: This entry is set to "0" if flashing unlock is not supported on

There is no such entry in build.prop. In fact there are no entries that contain the word "oem".

I have not yet. I have a feeling that the bootloader is not locked in the first place on this device, there simply is no mention of any bootloader lock anywhere on it. I have not tried compiling the source code from the Lenovo support site yet. Mediatek seem to be utterly awful at providing their binaries/source code so it is an infamous platform to do anything with. I (or anyone else) will have to try to compile it and check that everything needed is in fact there. If there are binaries missing then probably nothing can be done.

First I need to figure out how to actually compile that Lenovo source code...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mohit1110:
Thanks for the reply qumat. I have always used the proprietary OS comes with the device itself and this is the first time I am looking for Custom OS. All the terms you used are jargon for me.

Request you to please keep posting here so that I and other users can also learn from your experience about the same.

Please share the links where have you downloaded the said software in your previous post about Flash,AWB and Source Code.

Additionally can't we build the latest android source code from the Android website, instead of taking from Lenovo. Is there any benefit of taking code from Lenovo?

In case somehow if I build the latest android code, would that work for the tablet? I have no clue, do you have any idea?

BTW, how can I check the Hardware used on the tablet, like you mentioned it is using Mediatek
