I have created bundle where using MSM tool you can convert TMO to Global NA KB2005, but my 8t from Tmobile is on the way to me and don't have TMO version to test it out. Here is the link https://mega.nz/file/11dEAK5T#zpHHazY0npl29BCXFa04R9eHiJLVG15CyDuPZiuEqAo

if someone will test this and provide feedback I will be very grateful.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] darko454:
Hey thanks! I'm a bit confused...

Do I have to worry about what DDR type 0 or DDR type 1?

Also do I have to be on the latest Global NA KB2005 on both slots A/B to flash any custom ROM?

Thanks
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] ITMASTER:
Do exactly the same as you did when converting from tmo to eu. It does not require to be on specific firmware.

[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] Jarlys:
Since I started installing unofficial roms, I can't connect to wifi with any, only with the global official one.

I have tried viperOS, LineageOS, Pixel Experience, etc ...

With no connection to wifi

But if I install the latest official global (miui_MI5SGlobal_V10.2.3.0.OAGMIXM_638b1fbbd3_8.0) or the EU (xiaomi.eu_multi_MI5S_V11.0.2.0.OAGCNXM_v11-8.0) it connects to wifi without problem, but only with these

In addition, the proximity detector does not work in any rom, in settings I have it activated, nor in the latter, and when I open the hidden menu of xiaomi, not even the proximity sensor option appears, it seems as if it did not have it.

Is there any way to configure it?

Thank you
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shadeclan:
I'm trying to move away from Google stuff. I've installed /e/OS on my phone and replaced Google-dependent apps. However, I can't install the PRO key for Titanium Backup because it needs to contact the play store to work. I understand there is some sort of license text file that, when placed in the appropriate folder, will unlock the app. However, the developer seems to have gone AWOL. He won't answer emails either through the Titanium Backup website, the app or the donate page.

In desperation, I've tried some alternative backup solutions

OAndBackup - doesn't use ROOT access so it can't backup information in the DATA partition.

OAndBackupX - won't load on my phone

No other backup app that I have found uses ROOT so they will not do the trick.

I need one of the following:

a way to download the license text file (that doesn't depend on Google Play).

a backup app that will do the same job as Titanium Backup.

Instructions on how to manually backup data for a particular app (I can find or download the APK if I need to)

Thanks for your help in advance.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 1890170:
TB Pro Key app neither creates a license-key file nor relies on such one: this apk patches an already installed TB Free apk.

Both the TB Pro Key app and the TB Free app depend on com.android.google.vending package. what is the Googe Play Store app.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shadeclan:
Titanium Backup Free runs fine without Google Play. However, when I install the license key, Titanium Backup tries to verify the license - but it can't because it does so through com.android.google.vending, as you mentioned. Since I don't have Google Play installed, the PRO key can't do the verification, so your reply doesn't really help unless you mean to say that the license text file needs com.android.google.vending also. In that case, scratch the first option and say if you know of an app that can do what Titanium Backup does or say where the application data is so that I can back up things manually.

Slightly Off-Topic:

Recently, I found a cool way to "freeze" a system app. If you have ROOT access, you can go into /system/app/ and change the name of the target package from *.apk to *.bak and reboot - that disables the app and it won't load on reboot. If you don't have ROOT but the bootloader is unlocked, you can go into [TWRP] recovery, mount the system partition and do it that way - I got rid of the stock calendaring and tasks app that way with no adverse issues. The only caveat is that you have a replacement app loaded BEFORE you "freeze" the app - especially if you are going to freeze apps like the messaging app or the launcher!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 1890170:
:confused:

If you'ld decompile the TB Pro Key apk - as I did - then you can notice that a license text file - what you always mention - IS NOT USED at all.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shadeclan:
Open Titanium Backup. If you are using the free version, you will see a button at the lower right side of the screen in green that says "PRO version: $5.99" (it may be nation-sensitive and may be using your currency rather than US dollars but I doubt it). Click on the button and it asks you "Can you buy apps on the Android Market?". If you hit "NO", it brings up the following information: " To turn Titanium Backup into the Donate version branded to your name, please donate the amount you want (from USD$5.99) by PayPal and you will get your key file by e-mail. .. you can visit the donation page or use the Copy e-mail address button below and then paste it where needed. .. Upgrading gives you high speed ... "

If you close that window and go to the Titanium Backup "Menu" you will see at the top-right hand side a collapsed menu called "HELP / LICENSING". If you expand that menu and choose "Manage license" you will see the following message if you are running the free version: "You're running the free version of Titanium Backup. .. *No PRO key was detected. .. *No license file was detected. .. Supported locations for the license file are: */storage/emulated/0/TitaniumBackup_License.txt [Not found]"

The Titanium Backup license file is what I'm trying to get from the Titanium Track folks. I got back an automated message yesterday from one of my attempts to contact them. It was not encouraging.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heintosz:
I bought the Donate Version without Google Play (running MicroG). Did just as they said in the free app. You just need to follow the process.

After donating i got an email with the text file. Put the text file in the right folder and it was recognized. I have Titatium Backup Pro running perfectly now. No problems at all.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shadeclan:
Did you do that recently, like in the past 3 - 6 months? Because, if you did, I'll follow suit.

Perhaps they have some sort of automation set up...
[HTC Excalibur] Pig Vomit:
Today I upgraded my OS to Kavana 6.1 release. I love it.

I hardly ever (read: pretty much never) use the internet on the phone, but with the old T-Mobile official Dash 6.0 system (not hacked), I used to be able to access the internet and I thought I was charged on a per usage basis (but never really checked). In any case, I know for a fact I could access the internet on the old OS and I don't pay a monthly charge for it and it's not part of my plan.

So after I upgraded today, I could not get access to the internet at all. Checked the settings in the phone, checked T-Mobile's website, everything was set up right, but kept getting an error.

So I flashed back to the T-Mobile official release, and once again, I could access the internet. Checked all the settings, wrote them down, flashed back to Kavana. No internet.

Called T-Mobile. Didn't tell them I flashed to Kavana, but told them I suddenly didn't have internet access and asked for help. They said I don't have internet access because I don't pay for it, and T-Mobile does not have per data usage access, and there was nothing they could do unless I wanted to pay $20/month.

Can anyone tell me why this might have been and how I can get back the access I used to have?

As an aside....any way to get T-Zones working without paying for internet access (don't have time to search right now, yes I'm lazy, too!)

Thanks in advance for responses.
[HTC Excalibur] pfunkside:
Jesus Gixxum, is it that time of the month for newbs. I've heard of this before at Howard Forums when I first got my dash. It's kinda an error on Tmobiles Part. It worked for some in the past like almost a tease when they first got there Dash's. The people eventually lost the free internet. It's like in Office Space when they fire Milton. They fixed the glitch at payroll. So, in either case be happy your weren't charged per kb. No there is no free way to get Internet even with Tzones. The cheaper way is the 5.99 Hack. (USE THE SEARCH) But personally if you want weather and newsfeeds etc. constantly updating. Pay the 19.99 or miss out.

Good luck in your decision or oh I don't have your Swingline stapler.

:D
[HTC Excalibur] uansari1:
The $5.99 Tzones plus the proxy hack is the best option.
[HTC Excalibur] taylor_b92:
Yeah back in 07 when I first got my Dash for about 2 months I had free internet too. But that was when I was still using 5.0 Wow. 5.0. That was a year ago. Lol. It sucks how I meet people with the Dash that don't know what they can do with it. I knew this guy that had his phone for months and didn't know he had WiFi. We were on a college campus with free wifi everywhere.
[HTC Excalibur] Pig Vomit:
It was more than 2 months. It was pretty much the entire time I've owned the phone (about 15 months), but like I said, I never use the net through my phone (I work in a car and it's got a mounted laptop with HSDPA internet connectivity). So it's not worth 5.99 to me, much less 19.99. I don't frequent the forums much since I switched to Dash from MPx220 so wasn't sure if this had been brought up before. Seems like since I can flash back to T-Mo 6.0 and have free access there should be some way to hack it, but that's not something I'm capable of myself. Just thought I'd throw it out there for discussion in case people weren't aware.
[HTC Excalibur] taylor_b92:
It's either like this: Keep the faster ROM and pay 6 bux a month or go back to the T-Mobile branded ROM for free net. Dude I know you can afford 6 dollars a month. If it's really that serious I'll send it to you... PSYCHE! But seriously you can easily scrape that up in 30 days. Either way you'll be stealing from the provider but I guess it wouldn't be as bad if you paid a little. I've never had the 20 dollar a month one but I think it's faster. That's what some people say.
[HTC Excalibur] Pig Vomit:
Ok, here's my address:

Cheap Bastard

Munsterville, Transylvania, 66666

Nah, I like the sliding screen and faster ROM. Besides, it's not about me! Just trying to help. :rolleyes:
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
Nope not true, its the same speed whether you use the T-Zones plan and do the proxy configuration or instead use the 20 dollar plan, you will not notice any difference in speed.
[HTC Excalibur] taylor_b92:
Well then what would be the point in paying the 20 dollars?
[HTC Excalibur] Pig Vomit:
You're all kinda missing the point of this thread, not that your posts aren't appreciated. It's not how or whether to use the T-Zones hack, it's that the official T-Mobile 6.0 OS 1.22.531.4 allows free internet, and by reinstalling that OS I get it back. Just wondering if anyone can shed any light on why that is, and perhaps figure out how to get it to work with 6.1. I suspect it DID have something to do with T-Zones, as I could access T-Zones to check my minutes, etc., with the old system, but not with 6.1.

I don't care enough about internet on the phone to pay for it, but it was nice to know that it was there and available in an emergency just in case....

BTW, I'm in Southern California.
[HTC Excalibur] nhung:
You were not getting FREE internet. You were geing charge per KB. T-Mobile has a page showing the configuration needed to get MMS and internet to work. jdoggraz has a link to the page in his sig.
[HTC Excalibur] Pig Vomit:
Tried them, don't work. T-Mobile says they don't have a per KB charge for data.
[HTC Excalibur] Ravok:
Don't know how or why, but I am on flexpay, had internet for the first 3 months (the full 19.99 one) only for the rebate, cancelled it as I don't use it that much. They don't charge me anymore and it still works. Going on my 4th full month of all internet working without being charged for it, I called them multiple times to make sure I wasn't being charged and it wasn't activated and they insisted I must have been on a free wi-fi signal. Despite me knowing how to turn wifi on and off, and being in the dead center of a call center that blocks wifi and has no residences or other businesses within 4-500 meters...

I'm also on my 2nd rom, was on WM6 from here, think it was the HTC one, now using one of Kavanas, just using the regular settings. I really think it's a glitch in their billing/provisioning system.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:
Hi all,

Few people have mentioned OnePlus for being aggressive with their app killing.

I hadn't noticed it personally until recently.

I have energy ring installed which I'm sure many of you guys have too, other apps seem to be fine and seem to be running normally but I could be wrong.

Energy ring if you didn't know is a ring that goes round the camera lens, visually showing what percentage you're roughly at.

Things I've tried:

Set to don't optimise in apps/settings

Locked it into the launcher to keep it alive

It is set to active in accessibility options

Running:

11.0.1.1 EU phone 2022BA with xXx installed and elemental X kernel.

There's not much else I can do without a secondary app so just thought I'd ask.

How are you keeping your apps alive when needed?

Cheers

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] silmium:
if you have a Android 9 rom i guess you have an old firmware too (one for android 9)

so you should flash firmware for android 10 (no fw is labeled android 11 yet)

i guess (i did not try) firmware V11.0.1.0.QFGMIXM should work (just like for crdroid v6.11)

https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/firmware/lavender/stable/V11.0.1.0.QFGMIXM/

or you can flash the lastest V12.0.1.0.QFGMIXM like i did but you need to edit the updater file to install the rom

flash also the last recovery !

Thanks men, I didn't read the rom firmware required sentence in the bottom.

So, I can download V12.0.1.0.QFGMIXM, but how do I have to change the updater file? What do I need to put in there?

Also another doubt, the xiaomi.eu latest rom would work and provide the required firmware to later install this crdroid? Or should I better install the chinese one?

One more doubt (maybe not the last): do I have to do all the installs from recovery? Or the firmware is better to do it from the compute with XiaoMiFlash?

eu global chinese fw are the same (except language i guess) i never saw any difference

go for the global firmware cause...it is "global" :eek:

you should ! easier faster less trouble

you never know what could go wrong when you do it with comp (drivers link or else)

but xiaomiflash should"flash xiaomi"s phone (if not what is the point ??)

you have to wipe everything to make a clean install

i don't know if your flash tool dirty flash or clean everything first

with recovery you format the partition or wipe it all and you know you are good to go for a clean intall

same thing !

so yes !
