Wow, those flashing led's are real annoying. Any way to completely disable them? Any application available besides a soldering iron? Dash / HTC s620

thanks!

There is an app called Don't Forget that lets you tweak their behaviour - not sure if it will allow you to turn them off altogether though.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Raptroller74:
Hello I am sorry for posting here it is not the correct place. Whoever is able to move this to the right place I thank you and it'd be much appreciated. I have a Galaxy Note 8 verizon N950U I believe, It us currently with straight talk. As of lately I have been suffering from hacking issues. Not entirely sure how or who but it is clear they are professional because apparently I may not be able to factory reset it. It appears as if the software or firmware rather has been replaced with a compromised version that behaves different. For instance, when I very first purchased this device when you would factory reset it you would have to custom put in straight talk APN settings to have access to data, sms/mms etc all at once. Now when I attempt to factory reset device, 4Glte connectivity remains. With use of netguard I was able to determine nonstop cell when mobile disconnected,connections would resume on home LAN. Anyways, can someone A. Point me in direction of recording necessary logs to report attacks and determine maybe who is responsible. B. How to Totally wipe device and reinstall the most current stock firmware for specific device. C. How to REALLY protect myself from future intrusion. Thank you. This is a most desperate situation for me. I have ALMOST 2 years in recovery all matters of substances that destroyed my life. This is driving me crazy. It puts my family and my health in jeopardy. Thanks guys.

[Android General] Rikj000:
After a long time of writing I'm proud to release my free e-book / extensive guide called:

"Build your own ultimate Android"

It'll cover A LOT of Android modding (23 pages) but it's really detailed and I hope it'll be a good starting point for newbies to the scene.

But I'm pretty sure even novice modders will still be able to get something out of this.

In the guide I'll be modding a OnePlus 3T from start to finish but it should also mostly be suitable for other brands as well since I described it pretty generally.

If you follow the book you should end up with a build running the Latest LineageOS, one of the most private android's that will be out there, that has zero advertisements and is really battery and resource friendly.

You can read/download it from here:

DropBox Download - Build your own Android

Up-doots are welcome if you learned something from it, took a long time to write all of this down.

This is the table of contents to give you a more in-depth overview:

Info on the Android system:

[Samsung Galaxy J4+ Questions & Answers] Soda-88:
Alright, here's the situation I'm in. My friend's WiFi wasn't turning on so I first thing I did was reset the network settings to factory defaults which didn't help.

Next, I upgraded his OS OTA through settings pane, again no cigar. I then went to check if BT was working and it did turn on with no problem, or so I thought. Despite it being on, it wasn't seeing any BT devices I could see with my own phone and PC.

As a last resort I backed up his phone with Smart Switch and went for a factory reset. Boy, was that a big mistake. You see, when the phone went through the resetting motions, it got stuck in a bootloop. First the Samsung J4+, secured by Knox screen would show up followed by Samsung logo which would run for few seconds and then the phone would reboot.

What I tried next was going to recovery mode by pressing Volume up + power button. There I went to clear cache and once again rebooted the phone to no avail. Same thing happened again.

Next I tried doing factory reset through recovery mode, again same thing.

After that I went to download latest firmware from sammobile with correct CSC and flashed it with Odin with no problem. The problem was though that the bootloop persisted through fw flash.

Next, I found PIT file for the phone and loaded it up in Odin so I could check NAND Erase and Repartition options alongside loading up all the firmware files. This went smoothly, flash was erased and reformatted/repartitioned, Odin did its thing, firmware was loaded up to the phone, but again, bootloop persisted.

I drained the battery by letting it loop until it died, charged it back but that didn't help either. I also tried flashing several different CSC firmwares to no avail. Tried all 3 available firmware versions with binary counter of 6 (BTG1, BTE1 and BRB3).

Video at x7 speed: streamable com/uhyzpm

Unfortunately, I didn't have the presence of mind to enable OEM unlock before doing the factory reset so loading the phone with TWRP is not an option. I can't even load older versions of stock firmware either because the binary check fails. Am I SOL on this one?
[Magisk] legitscoper:
Hello, I have a rooted smartwatch, Ticwatch Pro 4G, with a custom ROM. It has a NFC module, which I wanted to use with app called "NFC Card Emulator". It works on my phone, but NFC module on it broke, so I am forced to use it on my watch. That app tries to edit file

/vendor/etc/libnfc-hal-st.conf

but it has no RW permissions, app suggest reboot but it doesn't work. I cannot also manually mount /vendor.

So, here is where I need help:

I have no idea if this is possible, but how can I create a module, that will allow that app to edit that file? Is there a way that I can "route" it or something to a place where it can be edited by the app?

I have no experience with making magisk modules, or android programming.
[General Topics] Monty Burns:
Hey Guys

i'm going to get into C++ so I can program WinMob and having ordered Programing Windows by Petzold, I quickly realised this is not a "learn c++" book.

Can anyone recommend a book to take me from knowing nothing to genious please? I have assembler experience so not a total newbie but haven't done any for over 15 years!
[General Topics] zenkinz:
are you a C/C++ expert? I presume you are since you have assembly knowledge.

I can't say I'm a WM programmer expert, but I like to share with you my experience with Windows and Windows Mobile.

I started off in Windows programming, rather than Windows Mobile, and that helps me alot in adopting Windows Mobile programming. And when I first started Windows programming, there isn't a luxury like .NET or MFC (actually it was already there, but very preliminary) so Win32 programming was all I can cling on, but I am glad I'm 'force' to learn Win32 programming as it forces me to understand the foundation of Windows operation (messaging queue, windows message intercept, windows manipulation, etc). So when C# and .NET comes in, it took me very quickly to adopt (although I resist on such managed framework for awhile :P). Because of my background with Windows programming, it's easy for me to develop Windows Mobile application, although I can't say it's anywhere comparable to some of the wonderful codes you find in XDA developers.

So my personal advise is if you are into building good Windows code, knowing Win32 programming is important.
[General Topics] YongkiCA:
I would like to suggest Douglas Boling's "Programming Microsoft Windows CE .NET, Third Edition (Core Reference)" or its latest version. It was one of Windows Mobile C++ book that I bought that's still useful after many years.
[General Topics] Monty Burns:
HI GUys

thanks for the replies. :)

I've quickly found out that before I learn C++ for WinMob I need to learn it on the windows platform in general. As you say Zenkinz, it seems easy to migrate from Windows to WinMob. Sadly, I am far from advanced at c++, I used to know assembler (680x0) but that was over 15 years ago! Infact, i'm a complete newbie to C++ :D

I got that Douglas Boling book ... its mammoth! And also beyond my level at the moment as I'm a complete learner.

I've also booked myself on a local college course to start me on learning C++.

So again, thank you for the replies, very usefull!

JumpSPL193 worked. I must have done someting wrong that a missed the last two times.

I have completed the process sucessfully.

Did the following:

1a. download the 5 attached files

1b. pull out the battery, REMOVE SIM and SD CARDS !! and reinsert battery (this step *is* important)

1c. connect your PC to phone with a USB cable

2. copy JumpSPL1.56-KAIS.exe to your device and run it (make sure the USB cable is still connected). If you still get a white screen then reset your device and now try JumpSPL1.93-KAIS.exe

I get a white screen with JumpSPL1.93 now what? Is there a newer JumpSPL? I tried searching did not find but a I am a newbie. I have a new Tilt just got it on Thursday 8/07/07.

I did a search for sppl-kais and that took me to a theard told me to use Kaiser-HardSSPLv1 which I tried before my orginal post and got the white screen.

I tried kaiser-HardSPL.exe first. Got white screen had to remove battery. Sim card was in but no sd card.

Then I followed the directions in the start of this post. Both 1.56 and 1.93 gave me what screens. With no sim or sd as instructed.

After each attempt the only way out of the white screen was to rmove the battery once done phone seems fine.

[Motorola Razr 5G Real Life Review] LormaD:
Well, it's a far cry from today's Qualcomm 3.0 Fast charging technology found on 4500+mAh smartphones.

The Pros:

Less battery to charge (2850mAh)

Turbo Charging technology is somewhat fast, and doesn't feel like it's cooking the battery.

Can charge at 1100+mAh per hour, so short charges of 15 minutes can get you a quick 11-12% more battery life.

The Cons:

If you don't have access during the day to one of the three means of charging... a battery charger, an AC usb charger, a usb car charger, you may suffer from battery anxiety.

As the battery ages, you will have less reserve battery to get you through a day and you will feel it more in such a small battery.

You can use this program, but runs in Windows Mobile, I ran it on my HTC Mogul, you have to put the ESN (hex) of your shift and press the button, then you get the SPC Code.

But the EPST of the Shift only enables you to change the MDN and MSIL, not the PRL or another data :(

If you disable device health services... You can expect 3-5 hours of screen on time and 3+ hours of Chrome use to last you over 24 hours easily. That's with screen brightness at about 65% and a mix of WiFi and cell use.

Cell use will always give you a significant hit to battery usage so your mileage will improve if you stick to WiFi.

I measure around 200ma of battery use while the screen is on and the phone otherwise idle with WiFi,cell, bluetooth all on but connected to WiFi. Given a 2850mah battery that gives 14 hours of battery usage if you kept that up constantly.
