i hope i choose the right place to post this....

looking for an easy way of installing my copilot (live 6) from a hard reset...

each time you install copilot, you need to enter your email and code from the software (these can be found in "install_path\prefences.cfg") which are easy to back up, and even import after a hard reset of a cooked rom, but is it possible you get it so don't have to active every time?

thanks you any comments

ps if this is posted twice, blame wi-fi connection, sorry guys

Hi all,

a little too late to the party maybe...hehehe

the build number is BLN-L24C900B300

I DON'T EVEN HAVE THE UPDATER BUTTON...THIS WAS A BIG SCREW-UP FROM HUAWEI TECH SUPPORT IN TEXAS...

1-) Update to OREO

2-) Update do Stock Android Oreo

Any help is greatly appreciated

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] cleverdicky:
I see there has been a few mentions of TMC here and there on xda that haven't amounted to much, but I came across an old article elsewhere that discussed the possible inclusion in android. Although several years old it has a link to a basic linux based software decoder.

Link - h**tp://linux.downloadatoz.com/simple-rds-tmc-decoder/

No special hardware required (UK anyway) as RDS data is received anyway by android head units radio. It just needs filtering and injected into appropriate nav. No special hardware necessary and no need for special mcu access.

I'm sure anyone born later than 2000 will never have heard of TMC and would cite google or waze as a better alternative of info / data received over an internet stream anyway.

While this is true, the cons are

1, needs permanent reliable data connection

2, reliance on google apps / services.

3, subject to google (and others) spyware, personal location tracking.

4, possible heavy data use costs.

5, not easy to implement in a head unit, and relies on a dongle or smartphone

6, may have in app costs associated.

RDS TMC has none of these disadvantages. It is always on provided FM radio is receivable. For basic info / data It is completely free, although some providers offer extra services and charge.

It has been around and used for years in win ce based systems (before android) yet it seems to have lost favour to android based manufacturers and users. Is that I wonder because of its advantages, and big companies want people to switch to more chargeable services with personal data harvesting??

What are peoples thoughts...?

Hi :),

I tried unsuccesfully to switch the original android emojis for the iphone ones on my Xioami Mi A2 Lite recently updated to official Android 10.

[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] idilos2:
Helo everyone,

I've been trying to flash my unlocked A505F device which I brought from ebay with A505U1 XAA firmware from samfirm as I live In the US and have been having trouble getting connected to my mobile network/ getting mobile data although I can call/text ( I didn't realize there were different models for different regions at the time of purchase). I was recommended this flash as it might add the LTE bands I need for my mobile carrier (Metro by tmobile). Unfortunately, despite having the Samsung drivers, the latest odin and A505U1 XAA firmware downloaded, the flash failed.

I was thus wondering if anyone has ever done this or if anyone has any tips on how to flash this firmware or any other advice on how to get the LTE bands for here in the US, as that's the only reason I'm doing this.

Thank you!

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] orangecrush:
I installed Dutty's ROM this weekend and it works fantastic. I was just wondering if any of you programming genius's (geniui?) had a chance to compare Dutty's ROM to HTC's 1.93 ROM.

I was just curious as to what differences are between the two. Typically, OEM manufacturer's end up making changes to match what the tweakers do first....

Curious....

Mark
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] adwinp:
Not really. You might find manufacturers keeping quite conservative settings. There's a reason behind everything (and that's called marketting).

For example: FAT / filter cache, which means you access your RAM more often AND keeping the gates alive at all times, at the cost of battery.

Tweaking isn't always what it seems, then again, sometimes you'd be better off not knowing all that stuff.

^.^
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] orangecrush:
At almost 46 years of age, it took me a LONG time to realize that manufacturers of anything usually take the conservative road soley because they have to appeal to a wide range of people and for the product to last.

It doesn't matter if it's cars, computers, RC cars or phones... Any manufacturer can make it faster, bigger or quicker... however, at what cost.

In terms of longevity and durabilty (whether it be how long an engine lasts or how long the battery in your phone lasts) it's much easier and much safer to keep a happy medium.

Then the rest of us depend on tweakers like you guys to tweak it.

Thanks,

Mark
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Sergio PC:
Very interesting thread may I say.

I agree, tweaking is forcing the engine. Thus, less efficiency.

And we even have tweakers looking at the possibility of overclocking the device.

Cheers!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] weenween:
I disagree on the less efficiency part. It was the wonderful work of the people here that made our Diamond performed as it should be and with much better battery life.

The engineers at HTC do not have the passion that our cooks have. For them it is a job, just get sufficient done.

For our wonderful cooks, it is passion to make The Perfect ROM.

We are the ones that get to enjoy the fruit.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] orangecrush:
But there is a give and take... for example, HTC could make it blazing fast. But the give part is they may have to remove some cool programs. TF3D for example.... or perhaps it has a heating problem, blah, blah, blah....

I don't think for a second that HTC can't do it, I imagine there is a reason why....

I mean, think about it.... If HTC could make a few tweaks and make the phone PERFECT with the PERFECT ROM, then EVERYONE would buy it.... more sales, right?

Surely their engineers are capable of doing so, but there's gotta to be a reason why they don't want to make their product better.

Actually, to answer my own question, it's not that they don't want to make it better.... they already think it's great. I think after the public getting their hands on it, they find all the flaws and thus new ROMs to cure it.

Yeah, that's it.... :)

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] rickblues:
So I'm trying to flash a Samsung SM-7387V Galaxy Tab A with new firmware as it currently has Knox / Mobicontrol

So it is locked down and you can't do a factory reset. I'm using Odin 3.13.1 and have the firmware which has the 4 files needed. I was able to initially get it to show up on Com6 is Odin but after a few min it complained it couldn't connect to the com port. After that any time I'm in Download mode windows complains it doesn't recognize the device. No amount of uninstalling / re-installing the Samsung USB Drivers, changing USB ports, windows reboots has fixed anything.

The only time I can get Winblows to detect the USB device properly is when booting it up normally.

So any suggestions on what gives? Also suggestions on if I'm on the right path to restore the device to remove Mobicontrol.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] rickblues:
Additional notes: I've tried on a second PC with a different USB cable, same results as soon as you connect it in the boot loader mode. Both systems complain it can't recognize the device. Windows 10 systems.

Blu G90 device shipped from factory with Android 10

as with other devices from blu they do not have a public download of there roms. So here is the stock rom pulled from the device with SP-Flash tool.

Both the shipped rom build fingerprint

ro.bootimage.build.fingerprint=BLU/G90/G0310WW:10/QP1A.190711.020/1585383273:user/release-keys

And the ota update from June fingerprint

ro.system.build.fingerprint=BLU/G90/G0310WW:10/QP1A.190711.020/1592848714:user/release-keys

are in android file host flash-able with spflash tool, if needed.

I know the first thing to have before modifying android is the method to recover from bad edits. So here they are.

Other works will be stored in this same folder.

Bootloader unlock is same as past devices.

1. enable develper options

2. enable OEM unlock , from inside developer options

3. Reboot to bootloader (adb reboot bootloader, or button combo)

4. fastboot flashing unlock

5. Select confirm on device

6. fastboot reboot (causes factory reset)

Flashing GSI

few more steps than Pie devices, but not too complicated.

You will need recent fastboot tools as tested these steps were done with V30.0.4

https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools

Verified boot is enabled on device. The verity key is stored into 3 section.

vbmeta.img

vbmeta_system.img

vbmeta_vendor.img

All found in stock rom. Shared in first post.

1. Unlock bootloader. (see last post)

2. Reboot to bootloader to disable verity

fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta_system vbmeta_system.img
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta_vendor vbmeta_vendor.img

3. Reboot from bootloader to fastboot(new interface for android 10)

fastboot reboot fastboot

4. flash sysem from "fastbootd"

fastboot flash system **gsi-system.img**

Use 64 bit AB GSI

5. Wipe data so the new system will work

Blu released kernel source today. 8-27. The tar.hz is dated April, eh, whatever.

I added the source files to the wip twrp tree, it compiles without error. (Not my normal experience , on first time out with Blu kernel).

But as mentioned before, the twrp will not pack the image correctly. Because of the need for new dtb commands that twrp 9.0 build environment does not accept.

And when building in the twrp 10.0-wip tree, the results have not booted for me yet. (I'm on build attempt 12, or so)

I'm rambling, sorry.

When I repack the twrp using the built kernel, twrp has only blank screen, and adb is active. So kernel is slightly off.

Build did not output separate dtb or dtbo.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mrmazak:
Well I confirmed it, the screen on this phone is not the one the kernel is building for.

I compared the defconfig from source, the one that matches the name in build prop, to the one I pulled from /proc. And they are different, and the kernel errors out during build when using right defconfig. So, waiting again for Blu to provide the files.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mrmazak:
There does not appear to be any interest in this phone, other than my own.

Well maybe it will catch on

then repacked the system.img
[Miscellaneous Android Development] DragonPitbull:
This is not entirely true.

Many Umidigi phones have been upgraded from 9 to 10. So the partitions would be very similar and considerably easy to root.

But for new phones coming with 10 the story changes. Read the last pages of your link's article. In addition, I know why and effect on Umidigi Power 3 still has limitations on root.

So this BLU G90 is not very different and depends on a lot of experimentation and tests. I believe that the OP is doing a great job mainly taking everything to github and trying to compile the kernel and firmware.
