[LG V40 Questions & Answers] Tesseract!:
Great, so all should works fine? I've seen on other thread that someone crossflashed the korean version and had an issue with wifi.

I would like to buy v40 from US on eBay so wanted to ensure.

BTW. Is it any difference if i buy Sprint, Verizon or AT&T... or it doesn't matter?
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] AsItLies:
My at&t was crossflashed to uk ebw, everything worked fine for me. Be aware, the lte bands you'll have will be the ones the rom indicates it has (on lg firmware page). They are more or less specific to the region the rom was developed for, as one would expect.

Hi all,

I have developped a small plugin for TL 0.9.3 that will display the birthdays to come on any page.

There is no cab installer yet, I will try to find out how to make one if someone may ask for it.

It is my first try to developping in c#, so it may be bugged...

Please report any comment / error you may have ;)

[09/03] : No more ini file. All the configuration is made through params in xml file. See ReadMe.txt in zip file for details.

Congrats!! :)

Hi!!

First of all thank you for developing a plugin for throttle :). I've tested it and have a little issue:

- You're searching for the fixed path by using \Program Files\ThrottleLauncher\Plugins hardcoded... This has make plugin crash on my device as I have an Spanish ROM and path is "Archivos de Programa" instead of "Program Files". Also user's can have Throttle Installed on their SD card. The simplest alternative to take the path that will solve this two problems. Add a parameter to the throttleplugin:

<throttleplugin name="ThrottleBirthday" path="#$THROTTLE#\Plugins\ThrottleBirthday\ThrottleBirthday.dll" height="25" class="ThrottleBirthday.ThrottleBirthday">
<param name="path" value="#$THROTTLE#\Plugins\ThrottleBirthday\"/>
</throttleplugin>

Also you can get rid of the ini file by using params:

<throttleplugin name="ThrottleBirthday" path="#$THROTTLE#\Plugins\ThrottleBirthday\ThrottleBirthday.dll" height="25" class="ThrottleBirthday.ThrottleBirthday">
<param name="font" value="Arial"/>
<param name="size" value="10"/>
...
</throttleplugin>

That way people developing setups for throttle can parametrize your plugin so it can be configured through the main ConfigDialog of the setup by using:

<param name="font" value="#@ThrottleTodayFont#"/>

Now... as you are the first developer for plugins for throttlelauncher :) may I ask you how it was? Did you encounter any problems or lack of documentation?

thank you very much again!! :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] malrok37:
If I could do it...

Hi APBilbo,

First of all, thanks for the tips, I will do my best to apply them for the next version :)

Regarding the difficulties I had, I started from your HelloWorldPlugin and learned C# from scratch, and well, asides from the problem of getting Throttle directory, it was quite a piece of cake.

It was a pleasure (and a great fun !!!) to develop a plugin (as simple as it may be) for your Throttle, as this app is for me a good representation of what a pocket pc app should provide :D

I will be on vacation next week, but I was curious about developping a ThrottleCal.0.2...

Be sure you will have news from me ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] malrok37:
No more ini file

Hi all,

Thanks to APBilbo' advices ;), there is no more ini file, only params in the xml file, and it should work on any region ROM (no more hardcoded silly path :p).

You may check the Readme.txt in the provided zip file for details.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] APBilbo:
Thanks :). Keep up good work ;). And enjoy your vacations!!
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Questions & Answers] TheeWolf:
Hello,

I am trying to unlock my bootloader but I my computer (Windows 10) does not recognize fastboot.

When I connect to fastboot (holding volume up button + connecting my phone by USB when it's off, or using the adb reboot fastboot command), the computer does not recognize the phone. I then tried installing drivers (both from Google and Sony) by going into device manager but Windows just doesn't install the drivers.

I then saw this on Sony's website:

Fastboot driver - Sony Developer World

developer.sony.com

So I download the file and pasted it instead of the same file (android_winusb.inf) in the Google driver folder, and it somewhat worked, but Windows said something like unable to find drivers for ADB.

I also tried to install in Windows test mode but to no avail.

No matter what I tried, entering the command fastboot devices in fastboot mode does not give me any output (not even "waiting for device").

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you!
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Questions & Answers] saraththaliyil:
Hii. you go to device manager. find your phone in unknown device. Update the driver using i have a disk option. Then try again. it will work.

[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] systemcarrotpt:
Hello all,

I need to upgrade my current phone and I will probably be buying a OP8T, for my daily needs the 8/128 version is more then enough.

So i have a question about the differences between this version and the 12/256 regarding rooting/unlocking bootloaders/installing new roms.

Are the devices considered equal regarding the procedures for rooting/installing new roms, etc?

Im trying to find out if theres is more support for one version then the other so i can choose what to buy.

Thank you for the help.
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] Qnorsten:
There is no difference for rom support or unlocking/rooting between the 8/128 or 12/256 models from the same regions. Every device can easily be unlocked and converted between different rom versions as well.

Only difference is the TMobile locked version from USA that are more difficult to unlock and convert (need to be sim unlocked from T-Mobile first).

The only other hardware difference between models from various regions is that they support different LTE /5G bands and that can't be changed by the user in anyway. So might be worth looking into if you consider buying from another region. But for the same region there shouldn't be a difference between 8/128 or 12/256 versions the phones have the same hardware except ram and memory storage
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] systemcarrotpt:
Hi.

Thank you for the reply.

I was looking at the Chinese version 12/256 that is quite cheapper than the European version. But i found out about the LTE/5G bands as you say and i decided to go with the European version (or the version that Amazon sells in Europe).

I will be going with the 8/128 then.

Again, thank you for the help.
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] Qnorsten:
Glad to be of help.

I bought a 8/128 GB EU version directly from oneplus before Christmas and haven't regretted it.

Right version is probably a more safe choice but I know people that have bought Chinese versions as well and is very happy with that. The phone will still work but you probably won't get the same coverage and speed if all band your provider used isnt supported.

I would compare the bands and see what suits you best.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Bhaumikm_:
Hello guys.. My cousin lives in the US and he purchased an LG V60 recently - unlocked ofcourse. Now the thing is, the messaging service is totally off. The stock app isn't sending/receiving texts.

He has already tried using a lot of messaging apps (setting them to default), also inquired that the phone is unlocked, removing & reinstalling SIM and even getting the SIM card replaced. They even tried network reset and band changing stuff but it didn't help.

Even in Google Messages, He gets the msgs hours or days later 😨 & whenever he tries to send a msg, it shows either "Sending..." Or "Insert SIM card to avail this feature". But if he restarts the phone, since the app hasn't sent the text, it says "Tap to Resend". On tapping, it works fine but only for each and every msg - whether sent or received.

If you know a way, or have encountered this with any android, please help ! 🙏🏻
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] drago10029:
there's a lot of info missing here, fyi

- what's the carrier?

-are they on latest update?

-what us the exact model number, look into setting. this will tell us the variant of LG v60 your cousin has.

-did they attempt any tampering with bootloader or rooting?

-do they have good signal?

give us all the info to better help. add as much info to each answer as possible.

TRY THE FOLLOWING

factory reset the APN settings.

next if that fails, factory reset the phone.

I'M also in the US and have used many messaging apps and have had none of these issues.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Bhaumikm_:
I asked him about the questions and this is the exact reply :

1- My current carrier is Mint Mobile. (They use T-mobile's network)

2- My phone is on Latest update on everything (OS, messages, etc )

3- Exact Model number - LG V60 Thinq 5G LM-V600TM

4- I didn't tamper with bootloader or rooting.

5- Good signal ? Yes. I have full bars and it has been confirmed by Mint mobile customer service. They've checked it multiple times and made sure that that's not the reason I'm having problems with Messaging.

He has also done network settings reset upon request of the customer care from Mint mobile. They said sometimes that helps. Other than that, he hasn't done anything apart from changing the default app from LG's to Google's Messages.

He just noticed this [attached image] today from Settings - Network and Internet - Mobile networks - Network Unlock(View Current status and inquire Network Unlock Eligibility) But when he talked with T-Mobile Customer Care a few days ago, he gave them IMEI and they said it's unlocked & that he's free to use it anywhere.

P.S. He isn't into Custom ROMs & modding & I don't know much about Unlocked phones so I had nowhere else to go for help. Thanks for taking the time out to reply :)

[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] teedawgg:
Hello,

I live in the US but purchased the Hong Kong model S21 Ultra, model SM-G9980. This model is using the Snapdragon chip set, and supports dual physical SIM. It supports LTE bands 2,4,12 yet it has not been aggregating any of the LTE bands in areas which I know a US model would.

As far as I'm aware, there is no access to a hidden network menu that will allow you to toggle carrier aggregation options.

I wanted to attempt installing the T-Mobile USA CSC, but Sammobile doesn't have any US model S21 Ultra firmware yet.

Does anyone know of a way I can enable carrier aggregation?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] teedawgg:
Update: I found the T-Mobile S21 Ultra firmware. Using a cracked version of ODIN I tried to install just the HOME_CSC for the T-Mobile variant. It immediately failed and now my phone won't even allow me into download mode again without showing "error while downloading."

I was able to bypass that and this time I filled in all the Taiwan G9980 but used the US XAA Home_CSC. This appeared to be working until the very end of the installation process when it finally said FAIL!
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] teedawgg:
Update 2: I downloaded the Taiwan version of the firmware. Still not aggregating LTE. I also have a feeling 5G is not working because the phone won't aggregate the LTE anchor associated with N41 5G in my area. Really hoping to figure this out sooner than later!
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] teedawgg:
Update 3: On a forum discussing the G9880 found HERE someone noted that 5G only worked in the "SIM 2" slot on that model. I switched my SIM to SIM2 and now the 5G icon is appearing, although I have checked *#0011# and noticed that it does not show any NR band connected, only Band 2 LTE. Note the photo below...

[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] VICosPhi:
Samsung requires all binaries to match a signature for that specific firmware so you cannot flash US Home_CSC or other files on Taiwanese S21 even though it is Snapdragon.

So far only one person has figured out how to get CA and enable US bands on Asian Snapdragon model Galaxy series phone.

Their username is Mdyche82. Check their post here, sadly he lost the SSD before he could post a howto.

Hi @teedawgg! I work with website called cacombos.com where I have listed over 300 different devices and supported Carrier Aggregation combinations. I don't have any details from your device yet (you can contribute log to cacombos.com/contribute if you like) but I think your device doesn't have US CA combinations defined to modem firmware. Even switching firmware's doesn't change hardware combinations.

Seems second SIM slot activate 5G-support but it requires your device support 5G combinations (EN_DC) and I think HK model doesn't.

But please share QMDL log from your device to cacombos.com/contribute so then we know more what combinations your device modem support. I don't recommend buy device from other regions because this could be issue. Free to browse other devices on my site to learn more about Carrier Aggregation and Dual Connectivity supports.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Max128:
Hello ! I am in Canada and I am still not convinced if I change my device for this one. But if i take one is will be the same model like you the SM-G9980. Because you can have it cheaper than directly than the company with a dual sim , another big advantage is the unlocked bootloader.

So I know that this model is directly without doing anything compatible with the carriers from the USA and Canada too for the 3G and 4G. I know that 5G is not yet compatible with. I know that the 5g bands in canada is n66 (1700) i don't know which one is for USA?

I'm curious if you have found something that works for unlocking bands network? And also if you can flash a firmware from another country? With your message it does not seem like it is possible? and what does it really bring more finally to use the SIM2? And honestly I don't care about 5G, not a lot of zones available, consuming a lot on the battery and more.. the 4G is still a lot faster.. I'm just curious about this.

Make sure you have correct region device because different region device support different combinations. These are defined to modem firmware. Best way buy own region device. Help me to keep cacombos.com updated by sending your device log to cacombos.com/contribute.

Hello guys,

I might be able to help you guys out. I had this same issue with my S21 ultra bought from samsung us store but was able to find a work around. Not sure If this would work for you guys but you might as well give it a try. You will need to download QPST, QXDM and have samsung and qualcomm drivers installed.

1. Make sure to have usb debugging on

2. Connect phone to usb and open dialer type *#0808# and select RMNET+DM+MODEM+ADPL(MDM) and leave it there

3. Open QPST and add new port. ( you should see the phone showing up in one of the COM ports ) add this port.

4. Launch EFS Explorer (Start Clients menu)

5. Select phone port that shows an ESN. ( the one added before ) it should take a moment to load

6. Navigate to / nv / Item_files / modem / lte / rrc / cap folder

7. Backup the "prune_ca_combos" file to our computer

8. Delete this file from the phone and reboot.

You should be getting LTE+ after reboot. Let me know if this helped you guys out. @moksjm @FearLesS007 @teedawgg @Max128
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] varcor:
The SM-G9980 Hong Kong variant is a unique model. It's not possible to flash most firmware to this device, the only alternatives are CHC (China) and BRI (Taiwan). At this time regardless of the firmware you flash your device isn't capable of enabling CA or 5G services. If it were me I would flash the original CSC (TGY) as it much more user friendly than the Taiwan or China firmware.

Where I am my service provider uses B3, B20 and B28. The only thing I can't seem to be able to do is 3CA. It does 2CA with any of these 3 bands. A while back I tried making custom aggregation files and loading them with QPST. So far no luck. When I get another chance will try again.

i have similar problem, bought the phone from australia(sm-g998b), came to estonia(where im from) and i am only getting 4g, not even 4.5g and not even talking about 5g, i tried using 5g switch to get into the network menu to change bands but it says unsuccessful, does changing out the firmware help me or not?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] L!V3_4_XC3SS:
Has anyone made any recent progress on this issue? I would like to be up to date because I'm allocating some time to research and solve this problem of unlocking the 5g bands and enabling carrier agg to get a more worldwide flavor of the device. Seems like we should just be able to overwrite the configuration XML files to turn on all the bands like the device does in Emergency Calls Only mode- You can make an emergency call on the networks in Zimbabwe if you feel like it because the config turns on all the spectrum. The actual files themselves are so simple someone with no coding experience could probably figure it out in plain language, but getting the device to accept it - not so much. I want an XXX CSC or a WWD CSC type worldwide device - time to get this done. Please share current status if anyone's progressed. I've got all the QComm engineering tools and I'm ready to do this or brick a 1500 dollar device trying so if you all have suggestions that you didn't dare try on your own device, share and I'll do them on mine. The S22 is going to be out soon anyway right? LOL
