I personally thought it would help folks see lesser known products. But it seems I'm not allowed to show my own videos even though I was not selling anything and even pointed out negative features like no lip protection so you could not lay it flat on a table...

Indeed. I used to watch your videos in the past on here, I don't recall no selling in them. But that was a while ago.

[Realme 6 Pro Questions & Answers] oxbowlarry:
You need to have the correct drivers installed on you computer. Does you computer recognize your phone when you plug it into computers USB port ? If it does then install the latest ADB Fastboot software into a folder on C: drive not inside of other folders or libraries like shown in the 1st picture.

Then go to that folder and in the address bar show with arrow in 2nd picture 2) click mouse where the red arrow is to highlight like shown in 3rd picture then press delete key then type --> cmd ,like shown in 4th picture and press enter. Plug your phone into the computer with USB and type in the command terminal --> adb devices ,and you phone should be listed. From there you can reboot fastboot to see if you phone is still connected type --> fastboot devices , your phone should be listed.

I am not sure but I think google uses its own RCS server/profile in google messages.

I used it previously and it's working great also. it's just that it drains too much battery. I can't use it also in my samsung smartwatch.

[HTC U Play Questions & Answers] choppedartisan:
I left my phone at a repair shop for battery change.

The guy tells me that he is charging me 20% more because of extra step he has to take. While the 80% is for the battery+labour, the 20% is aan extra cost for risking the removal of the screen prior to accessing the phone. According to him, there are screws right behind the screen, which he has to carefully remove, so that can unscrew to have access to the battery. I was sceptical. I already paid the sum requested, though.

Am I getting conned? I haven't seen such steps on any of the videos on YT. Can a real person who worked on this phone advise me? I am planning to call him out when I go collect my phone.

So i wrote to Dbrand because i couldn't find any Galaxy tab s7 skins and this is the answer i got.

Thanks for reaching out. Unfortunately, we have no plans to support the Galaxy Tab series, as there is simply not enough demand to justify adding it to our portfolio at this time. Sorry about that. Let us know if there is anything else we can help with, and have a great day!

We need more people to request it I guess.

[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] HyperEscape:
Hello,

I have the mobile with the following information

Android version
8.0.0

Android security patch level
November 1 , 2018

Baseband version
MPSS.AT.
4.0.c2.9-00045-5DM845_GEN.PACK-1 .160685.1 .163435.1

Kernel version
4.9.65

Build number
OPRI.170623.032

Software version
G710ULM11g

The OEM bootloader unlock option is enabled in the developer's settings.

I have been searching around , however wasn't able to find the required information in a coherent manner.

I would appreciate if someone can guide me in the right direction for the following:

1. To be able to load custom recovery and make a unrooted original stock backup of the current ROM - to be used in case I need to revert to stock.

2. To be able to root on the current ROM version, or if the higher versions are rootable can/do I need to upgrade the ROM, as I am getting the OTA upgrade message (haven't done it as yet).

3. Load Magisk and all sound enhancements , at minimum Viper4Android (and Dolby if working).

4. Load Sony Walkman Music Player

5. Which root hide to use with Magisk so the root is not detectable for finance/banking applications. Not sure if google pay or similar applications would work that way.

Thanks for reading and your suggestions.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] lefttobleed:
1. You can do this through edl. Guide is available.

2. Magisk root works on all the roms. Custom recovery does not work on stock 10, so you will have to extract boot partition and patch.

3. Viper4android works. Dolby no idea...

4. Don't use. Don't know.

5. I use magisk hide itself for some work and covid tracking apps. Banking apps no idea.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] Yeedatoy:
Man, you actually have the perfect model to root. The firmware you're on already gives you access to fastboot and you can unlock it, root it and install TWRP all through fastboot. Afterwards, you can upgrade to Pie using LGUP and still stay rooted with Magisk. I will link the thread. It's a bit confusing because somethings were deleted, but if you need help let me know.

---------- Post added at 02:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:13 PM ----------

After this you can install a custom kernel. Look up TNO Kernel in the G7 threads. Also, any audio mods will degrade the sound quality of the G7. Viper is not 64bit and it will resample all of your audio to 48k. Other mods will stop you from being able to output 24bit audio or interfere with how the Quad Dac is meant to operate. Just pay the 8 bucks for USB Audio Player Pro and you'll be good. It's a music player that can bypass androids upsampling and it is made to recognize your specific DAC and make initial adjustments accordingly. You can download a Magisk module that will allow you to change the fingerprint of your device to pass safety net and use banking apps. There is a Sony music Magisk module as well if you can't live without it, but USB Audio Player Pro can be used with Bubble Unpnp to stream from your Google drive folder, or use the Air Audio app and Magisk module to stream while avoiding too much degradation in audio quality. Then, when the official Android 10 ULM update comes out, you many need to use QFIL to update and keep root but until then you only need the modded LGUP.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] HyperEscape:
Thanks for info, I am not entirely sure but I understand using this method you have to load the bootloader of another mobile model from LG, will this have any effect on the remaining functionality of the mobile itself.

Thanks for the detailed information and post link. Will heed to your suggestions and will keep you posted for any queries once I try these , probably the call to action would happen in a week's time or so.

Has anyone got VPN connectivity working with DCD 3.2.5? I have been trying for hours with no luck. Every time I try to connect I just get the generic unable to connect message (VPN Server problems. Verify your username and password..... I do know its not a user name / password issue. I set the VPN up and administer it. Its a ClarkConnect Community Edition Firewall Router 4.3.

I can however use the phone with Internet Sharing and connect to the same VPN end point with my laptop. I know the VPN is working.

Any one have any experience with this?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] scrawnyb:
I'll be honest. I haven't really tried yet, but I am interested in getting this working myself, as I need to set it up; in addition to somehow getting this damn thing to connect to my school's network - which it has refused to for many weeks now.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] BillThyCat:
Did you try using the kitchen and enabling the Enterprise IPSEC checkbox? It's the first item on the list. I assumed this was for those who needed VPN connections, so have not used it myself personally.

BTC
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] dcd1182:
yep you need that for IPSEC vpn, but PPTP vpn would work without it.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Scott:
Yes. Im going to flash back to a stock ROM later today and test.

I'll post the results.

DCD have you ever got PPTP to work?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Scott:
Telus ROM can authenticate just fine. Hmmmm. DCD Any thoughts?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] N!njaDuck:
PPTP VPN works

Here is what I did:

Configured the VPN connection.

Create a nework exception for a valid DNS name or use wildcards:

*.myvpnconnection.com

Anything you go to in that domain will use the VPN. IE seems to be the only thing that will initiate the connection.

It sounds like you might have something wrong on the server side.

MM
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] bartlanz:
I just setup mine to use the vpn into my office and it worked slick as "stuff"... but we use a MS VPN server with AD...
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Protonus:
I'm able to use VPN on 3.2.5 (stock, not cooked in kitchen) It works, but often time I have to soft reset before it will let me connect. Windows even suggests it... I haven't figured out a way around this when it happens, other then to soft reset.

Also I'm having a problem where VPN locks up the phone if I leave it connected, and the phone goes into lower power mode. It won't wake up with power. I have to soft reset.

Lastly, I'm trying to figure out the fastest way to actually launch the connection. It seems horribly buried / inefficent, the way I'm doing it:

I'm going to Start -> Settings -> Connections Tab -> Connections Icon -> Under the VPN Connection hitting "Manage Existing Connections -> VPN Tab -> Selecting the VPN Connection and "right clicking (hold until context menu pops up) and hitting "Connect".

Anyone know of a faster way?

Thanks in advance!!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] that_kid:
PPTP and L2TP work fine here. I do have an issue where if I leave the connection live and the device goes to sleep it doesn't wake up and requires a soft reset. It's been like that for a number of revisions. Other than that it works fine.

So I just searching around for some hidden settings and I discovered that the Ambient Display and Dolby Atmos are there but those functions doesn't work but the question is why didn't they added in this port.

The Audio Settings doesn't have a equalizer (wich is strange because older models have that, I had an XA1) but in the settings shortcut has the "DolbyEffect" wich is the Dolby Enhancements but it's not functional.

ALSO there's an app called "Wireless playback quality" wich does nothing.(it's closing when openned)

The Ambient Display is there even has some settings turned on,again not functional it's set to when it's lifted but it doesn't work.

In the STAMINA setting says it should disable the Ambient Display but it's not existent.

Why did they pulled off,I don't know? Kinda sad because it's a mid range phone such as the Samsung A series.

This should be added in a software update.

About the Dolby stuffs, It could be the similar case to Xperia X. The Xpx originally not intended to take 4k video using the 4k recording (It's a part of the slow mo camera app package), but if I remove some apk file (not exactly remember where or the name of it) the 4k option will be available in the stock camera.

It is possible that some of feature is just somehow disable. We might be able to enable it. Of course you need root.

Hi,

I have a few questions about this TV, Skyworth 55UB7500

1- Where can I find a new firmware files for this TV to update it manually to latest Android TV update, I have April 2020 update.

2- There is something called "TV setting" under android tv settings menu, this option opens picture settings "brightness, saturation, Sharpness.. etc" the only problem with this option is it's hidden while you are using Android TV system, if you are in that main UI or any other build in apps (YouTube TV, Google play etc).

It's only available when you are using any external devices through HDMI ports, for example if I connect my PlayStation 4 and I choose its input, the "TV setting" options will be visible as it should, but if there's no active HDMI device, this option will not be accessible.. Is there any method to show it all the time using ADB commands or something else? I can access service menu but I didn't find anything useful there.

[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackhawk:
The hot Texas sun nailed my S4+ over a year ago.

My bad...

It faded out the display with moderately sever banding but was usable. Heat made it wash out more.

So I upgraded.

Strangely after the S4 got months of rest time the display improved a lot.

So what got blown, the liquid crystals or a driver?

I assume it's the crystals as semiconductors don't heal themselves.

Maybe a display driver capacitor?

Anyone know what got blown?
