Hi,

Check your serial number, if you can find anything interesting there. I don't think that there are specific versions for UK and US, if you ordered from AliExpress for example you received the global version, which supports most mobile networks in the world. Maybe you got a different charger, but that's it. I am not sure, if any ,,Chinese ROMs" exist or not.

Don't flood please. :)
[Android General] Cinephile 74:
Thanks for your reply. I purchased from Amazon I believe,; the first time I booted into fastboot the menu was ahh Chinese (thanks Translate); has since stopped. I've rooted several lG And Samsung Models,; am a bit rusty and wanted to make sure. Thanks again!
[Android General] Ed Haddon:
If the build number says Umidigi_S5_Pro.E_Vxxxxx then the E indicates that the build is the European version including the UK the latest version of which is at V1.2_20201130 on the Umidigi site. If the build number says Umidigi_S5_Pro_Vxxxxx then as it has no E in it then it is the International version the latest version of which is at V1.3 on the Umidigi site.

There is no different Soc chip between the European and the international models unlike Samsung, so you do not have to worry about that. I believe Umidigi had two versions when it was V1.1 because of legal requirements, but it stopped updating the European version at V1.2 and stopped updating the International version at V1.3, and does not intend to update either anymore. If you install the European V1.2 using local OTA install then it will not install the International V1.3 via local OTA install, as it goes through the motions and then boots back to V1.2. But you can happily use the International V1.3 on a UK phone, but to go from E_1.2 to V_1.3 you have to use the SP Flash Tool https://www.mediafire.com/file/3lvy9mlwmuhlkjf/SP_Flash_Tool_v5.2052.rar/file rather than local OTA.
[Android General] cyclick001:
atleast you are trying keep the good work up. i have no idea why there isnt much people working on twrp for this device. the device is decent and runs well. let me know if you are successful in finishing the project.
[Android General] Halwer:
Thank you for your kind words, I really appreciate it!

unfortunately it seems the only way to flash a ROM is through fastboot or SP Flash Tool after unpacking the super.img and replacing the system.img with a GSI. You can find more info and detailed descriptions in the mentioned thread.
[Android General] zy718:
My s5 pro can not edit or add APN. There is no "+" in the APN settings to create a new one, and all editing functions are greyed out. The APN for telus is wrong, so I can not connect to LTE. Anyone else come across this? Any obvious solutions?
[Android General] Halwer:
Hello,

I just checked and for me everything is working fine. A reboot can solve a lot of problems.
[Android General] zerosava:
Guys, just wanted to let you know that I no longer have an S5 Pro. I gave it to my girlfriend after hers broke so I can still answer some questions, but it's been unrooted and is now stock so no customizations or TWRP stuff will be done on it anymore. I wish you all lots of luck with your phones in the future. BTW, I kept my S3 Pro instead, I like it a lot more and it works better with Fi, which I am now on. I still have my F2, so you can ask me about it in this forum: Rooting the F2 Guide
[Android General] Paperweight Master:
Hello fellow root-ster I'm preparing to root my S5 Pro and was wondering what method you used if any, that differs from the thread found here on XDA (?)
[Android General] Paperweight Master:
Recommend a new USB cord. Sometimes its that simple.
[Android General] zerosava:
I used the method at the beginning of this thread. BTW, I wrote this thread :)
[Android General] Paperweight Master:
In that case, allow me to humbly say, YOU ROCK!

I tried to download the stock rom of my s5 pro from several places, even here, but the message I get when I try to open the file is: archive is either damaged or in unknown format. what am I doing wrong? i would like to root it and install the twrp to switch to a gsi rom but i'm having a lot of difficulty.

Sono riuscito a sbloccare il boot loader come da istruzioni ma non riesco ad aprire la rom stock s5proE

hmmmmmm it was my sw rar with bugs, all right I go on

hi, i unlocked my s5pro, i downloaded the stock rom of 7/01/2021. I patched the boot.img from the stock rom. I launch Sp_flash_tool I launch Scatter I deselect the files and select the boot item, I look for the patched boot, I open and load, download I connect the phone from the off part and the result is Herror .. I noticed that in the stock rom there are boot, magisk_patche and recovery that they all have the same size ie 32,768. any idea?
[Android General] Halwer:
I compiled a "beta" TWRP for the S5 Pro, use that instead, if you really need to.
[Android General] baggino:
after unlocking I can't root following the instructions on the first page, when I give the command: fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img it gives me partition error ... I know that I give up
[Android General] baggino:
I have installed a more recent stock rom with SP Flash tool and it gets stuck on "just a second" and it restarts with some yellow flashes and restarts in the boot loop. what can it depend on, how can I intervene?

The only way I have to shut it down is to boot into recovery and shut it down
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] bobbarker2:
Just setup my phone, including updates/security updates and I've found the NFC quicktile always shows disabled. If I long press the icon, it will take me to Connection preferences where I can turn it on or off there, but no matter the state it is in the NFC quicktile shows disabled.

Anyone else have this problem?
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] SerArris:
Yep. Mine is the same way. I also have a weird issue because I keep several apps in folders on my homepage. If I rearrange the apps within a folder, it leaves a copy of the app icon on the actual homepage itself. A reboot fixes it but it's odd.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] GoldElocks:
Strange, I don't even have the option to add NFC quick tile. I've tried toggling NFC both on and off and looking for the tile with no luck either.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] CoryCoolguy:
Mine is also disabled. I probably only have it because I transferred my settings from another phone that had the tile there already. I wonder if/why Google is phasing out the NFC toggle
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] DJesri13:
I also cannot use the quick tile toggle
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] klazyStrida:
My 4a also disabled.

I think that it is because the data/settings were migrated from the previous phone that has NFC icon in QS panel.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] CatThief:
The NFC toggle works fine for me, BUT... my phone is rooted.

I installed the Quick Settings app (by Simone Sestito) to get the NFC toggle, then granted it superuser permissions.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] CoryCoolguy:
My 4a is also rooted, yet the (previously) built-in quick toggle is disabled as previously described.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] CatThief:
To test this I just froze the Quick Settings app I installed and I don't even see NFC among the default choices. Only unfreezing the app adds it back, so maybe you're seeing something that was there from previous settings you restored? I think it's odd that Google didn't put it there by default, but it appears they didn't?
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] SerArris:
I actually factory reset mine last night and didn't restore from any backup. The NFC quick toggle is gone now.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] CoryCoolguy:
Yep, that's exactly the conclusion I came to earlier. Google definitely removed the tile for it. Seems like a strange decision to me, though.

I dropped superglue on my screen.

Can I use nail polish remover to clean it?

Or do you know any other chemical that would not damage my screen?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DarkDvr:
Oh jeez man..

You could try using the women's nail manicure removing liquid.. not sure what it's called, its sold in almost every store.. made to dissolve the nail polish - it's a pretty strong acid, but I doubt it's strong enough to damage the screen.... unless of course you will rub it in.. I'd just put it on and wait for it to dissolve the glue.

Of course, use at ur own risk =)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] RavenY2K3:
Jeez thats harsh...

Anyway, i use "Hammerite Metal Brush Thinners" for that sort of thing, its awesome stuff... im sure it'll even take your eyebrows off if you wanted to... ;)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] lifanus:
try Acetone or GooGone in an area close to corner of screen so to make sure it do not mess up the screen... if it don't mess up the screen, then you can try to rub either on the glue gently......

*I'm not responsible for damage though..
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Bjd223:
DO NOT use anything abrasive on your screen!

Take a damp rag and get the superglue wet. Once it is damp for a while start to rub it gently. Superglue is water soluble for safety purposes. It can take as long as 15 minutes of water exposure before it breaks down.

Too much water is bad, it will get into other parts of the device and possibly cause corrosion. Too little water will not break down the super glue.

I'd say less is more in this case. Take out the battery, clean the screen, let it dry well and then reinsert the battery.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jahrami:
no no no dont use acetone (nail polish) it will damage your screen more it will eat it (melt it down)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kilrah:
Haha, that's a good one. With cyano glue the only thing that ill have a chance is acetone. But as said above it might damage the screen even more (don't get any anywhere else like the front cover), and even if it does the glue will certainly leave stains.

Prepare yourself for a screen replacement...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] radoste:
Thanks for the advises. I will try the water first then the rest.

I will report back tonight.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jahrami:
take it easy brother - it will be resolved

use room temp. water (nothing else) as one of the boys said use little amount i advise using cotton it will hold the amont of water you want to apply

dude - not to get you worried but back up your data before procedure

[Huawei Mate 20 Guides, News, & Discussion] rhspooky:
Your best bet is to purchase a Chinese SIM off amazon (13 to 18$) and turn on the phone with it in place of your carrier sim. Then check for an update with your WiFi on... Its how I got mine to 10.1.0.248.

---------- Post added at 03:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:57 PM ----------

Mt Projects was awesome back in the day but the current MTProject doesn't work with EMUI 9 and above unless you want to go into your WiFi router and change settings and some other crap. There is simpler way... See my other post.

I have a (half?) bricked Mate 20. The system doesn't boot, but fastboot mode works, "fastboot devices" command recognized the device. I've downloaded the appropriate update_full_base.zip firmware file. How can I flash this?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] shocco:
I had to have my Tilt replaced because there is an issue with the sim card holder/contacts/whatever. Sim would lose contact with the phone as I moved it around, and randomly lose service and flash "no sim."

ANYWAY, the replacement they sent me has the full compliment of gear (charger, battery, spare stylus, etc)

Think I could get away with returning the original one, and keeping both batteries, or are they going to note that and charge me for it?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kareeem:
Whatever they give you, you must give back. I've been in the same case a couple times and i actually called the company and asked them. If i got an employee that said i can keep it, i'd keep it, if not return it. You're lucky they even sent you a whole package because they usually only send the Tilt with no back cover or battery and it's usually refurbished. Just do what's right.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kilrah:
I'd just send the device alone. If they moan, tell them you forgot about the rest and send it back... otherwise (likely), keep it :)

CalyxOS is available. It is very similar to GrapheneOS in that it doesn't include GApps and you can relock the bootloader. One big difference is you can choose to install MicoG during install.
