[General Questions and Answers] Reaper-Nam:
Disclaimer: So its not a stolen phone, prior owner was just being nasty. I bought the phone from a 2nd hand shop (Cash Crusaders, Kathu, South Africa), where they told me that a lady sold the phone to them, came back after 3 months and wanted to buy it back for the same price (they guarantee buybacks for 1 month), they refused to sell it back to her at selling price, so she went and had the phone blocked. They went through the process of unbricking it through the ISPs, but in the meantime also got repair shops to try and fix it... They changed the IMEI number... So I bought the phone, fully functional, did a factory reset, saw that it had OEM unlocked and figured it was the cause for the biometrics not working, turned that on and thats where my mission started. OEM locked, custom firmware detected... Used Odin to flash on stock firmware (from Frija), got the phone functional, but emergency calls only and no cellular. I have tried rooting and using console, I have tried changing it in the EFS file, I have tried changing it via ADB Fastboot, via dialer (does nothing even with Google Dialer Framework V5)) no dice, it keeps the incorrect IMEI. I have looked up the IMEI on IMEI.info and its clean, so I take it they managed to get it unblacklisted, which is why I want to get the original IMEI back.

What I would like help with is does anyone know how exactly I can change the IMEI number on my phone (Rooted with Magisk and TWRP, but eXposed framework is finnicky and doesnt register properly, even through I installed the RIRU (V23) and RIRU EdXposed (Canary, both Sandhook and YAHFA on seperate occasions) packages via Magisk (V21.1 and V8.0.3 for manager) as per instructions.

P.S. I am a student on a tight budget, so I would prefer to do it on the cheap/free and I live in Namibia, so sending it to Samsung isnt quite an option.
[General Questions and Answers] Reaper-Nam:
Also please let me know if there is any info, logs, etc. I can attach that might help.
[General Questions and Answers] Reaper-Nam:
I have my receipt and they have theirs. So by all means verify the IMEI yourself 356630093456642.

[General Questions and Answers] Reaper-Nam:
Thing is phone got cleared. Original IMEI is clean, which is why I wanna reset it back to it, only problem is they seem to have used a flash-kit to change it in the recovery partitions too (bricked the damn thing when I recovered it (accidentally turned OEM lock on...), I've tried everything down to loading the engineering combination file (interesting though, its android 8.1, which shouldn't actually be possible to do from Android 10) on it and trying through there, no dice. Also asked local repair shops if any of them have a flash kit, none have 1... So I'm stuck at this point, cant even do the normal 'pay a repair shop to fix it for you' method.
[Moto G7 Plus Questions & Answers] papperlapapp:
Hi, I´ll soon get a G7 plus and want to install LineageOS.

The install howto mentions "slot a/b" and a copy-partitions zip file.

Is slot a and slot b just another term for partition? Are these slots just 2 partitions on that device?

Thanks

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Giegl:
Hi all,

I managed to get VoLTE working on the latest stock rom making some changes to the build.prop. Unfortunately it has problems negotiating the correct codec with my carrier O2/Telefonica Germany, so the caller sounds like a robot. (see https://hilfe.o2online.de/mobilfunk...te-mit-xiaomi-a1-seit-dem-4-9-gestoert-543567 )This only happens for some calls, depending on the counterpart device.

I tried changing the modem profile with Qualcomm's PDC tool. Using VoLTE_CU I can properly use VoLTE with my carrier:

View attachment 5159627

Unfortunately this disables VoWifi for me. I've had another look and many people uploaded their .mbn modem profiles for Telefonica Germany. How can I inject this using PDC? When clicking "Load", I can select the .mbn but it won't appear in the list.

Thanks

Giegl

[Nook Touch General] gfaza:
Hi !

After a three months of not using my Nook Glowlight Plus (not rooted, it's standard), i turned it on, and tried to connect it to my Windows 10 PC.

Nothing appeared as USB Drive as expected. In fact, there's no device in the Device Manager list.

I tried in two other PCs with Windows 10, and in a fourth one with Windows 7, and the same behaviour.

I went to update the firmware, and it completed the process. Also, in About Menu i see:

Model: BNRV10

App Version: 52.0.78 / 5.2.4.27

After this, i tried to connect it again in the PCs, and same behaviour, no USB drive.

I called B&N, and the operator told me to load the update.zip file and complete the update, but i tried to explain her if i'm not seeing any USB drive, it will be very difficult. :)

After researching some internet, i discovered if i press in the Nook icon in the About Menu, i can enter in a kind of System Settings Menu, and i checked in the Android Development Settings, the USB Debugging option is enabled.

But the question is... I don't want to root it, i just want the Nook to be seen by Windows...

Any suggestion, please?

Thanks!
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
Just using the "USB Debugging" is not the same as rooting.

You're not necessarily modifying any of the system.

In fact, I would recommend against using the "USB drive" style interface.

You would need to install ADB on your desktop.

Then you could just:

C:\>adb push update.zip /sdcard

I do have a little but annoying problem concerning Wisbar Advance and HTC Home!

Every time I click the start button so that the start menu pops up, the other

Today Screen plugins I have (Battery Status and Tasks) disappear (or hide behind the HTC plugin..).

I tried preventing Wisbar to skin shell32, but that didn't work at all.

Hi, i just recieved an 8525 i ordered....however i've got a weird problem with the keyboard. already searched but couldnt find any info on this. wheneever i push certain keys they correspond to another key also. resulting in a double click.

b is like with M and vice versa, the same with y & i, h & k, enter and O,left & right are linked to eachother and some others that i havnt noticed probably. this is a stock rom, could this be a keyboard wiring issue or what?

thanks guys
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
I have seen this come up before. What I don't recall is a particularly good answer - though I could be wrong.

I don't believe this is anything to do with the ROM or software.

In my view it is likely to be either a key which is sticking (not releasing fully) or the keyboard multiconnector.

Is this a new or used phone and do you have a warranty?

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] knk1990:
hey thanks for the reply. umm its new, but bought over the net (ebay), i can ship it back to hongkong from aus but its a pain in the ass, wanted to see if i could solve it myself. anyway i've contacted him about it and im awaiting a reply. i upgraded to the latest 8235 rom rather than using a cooked on for the time being. warranty issues etc and no luck so you were right on that account lol.

i dont think its a key sticking id be more confident its with the keyboard controller or something similar. as pushing the M key does exactly the same thing as B in the same order. and same with all others.

hoping for a simple fix lol :(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] knk1990:

no i'm not, im getting a refund. this guy seems shifty....and the phone didnt seem brand new. no evident signs of it...but it wasnt packaged properly and as i think i mentioned the slide mechanism seemed very loose. ill probably go for something else now.

[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] revanmj:
What apps? Because some time ago Google made changes to how this works and apps must ask user to grant them permission to draw over other apps.

When upgraded to a newer version of Android, permission was not removed for already installed apps. But on new device, you most likely have to grant this permission after reinstalling your apps (and if you used old apps that do not check it this permission is granted, they will crash when trying to use it).

You can manage this permission in Settings > Apps > Special access (I other language on the phone, so can't say what exactly this section is called in English)

Hi All

hoping you can give some advice here, I'm currently with vodafone Australia and looking at buying a diamond.

Currently they are available locally as the Telstra HTC touch diamond (competing network) or via grey import models.

I understand through numerous threads that there is no quad band model as yet and that telstra uses 3g on the 850mhz band, i think but am not sure that vodafone uses 2100mhz for 3g.

I'm confused as to which handset im better off with the telstra one or a grey import.

To make it more confusing I'm going to USA and Sth America, shortly and want to make sure it roams on 3g.

HELP!!!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] 7lucky:
no-one even has an opinion?!?

After scouring the rest of the 'net it appears that;

telstra uses 850mhz hsdpa,

vodafone and optus uses 2100mhz umts,

optus will launch 900mhz hsdpa in the near future.

I gather from this that no matter which australian carrier network i use i will not be able to use one carrier or another does someone have any further insight on this?
