Make sure you have Telenav installed on your tilt if you're using at&t. Just in case if it ever gets stolen, at&t can track it down via gps through telenav ONLY. I got my tilt stolen today :( Didn't have anti-theft/telenav installed on it so I can't get it back. So I'm just warning you guys.

what if the thief throws it into a lake?
[General Topics] kareeem:
What idiot would do that?

I got my 8525 stolen as well (February) and didn't have any software to retrieve it.
[General Topics] Kraize:
I just learned. Get some good software though. I know most idiots in my town wouldn't know how to use WinMo and uninstall software, but these are programs that can be uninstalled, but can easily track your phone:

TeleNav

VitoFindMe

They work, very well so, but they can be easily uninstalled. TeleNav can even let you see your phone's location via their website.

I do recommend something like:

RemoteAntitheft

Sprite Terminator

These will work very well. I regret not installing remote antitheft after I flashed a new rom to my tilt :( But things happen. I just hope whoever stole it feels guilty about what he did at some point in his life. I'll be fine >.> I'll get a new one (I didn't get insurance though since in Feb. we weren't allowed insurance on tilts)
[General Topics] Black93300ZX:
Ouch, sorry to hear that Kraize. Hopefully things go better, especially after you get the Fuze. I presume you still plan on that, are you going to get a temporary phone and then the Fuze or get a Tilt for the meantime?
[General Topics] Zaiaku:
Sorry but maybe its jus me but dont think it would work all to well. Seriously if I got someone's phone, first thing I would do is bacc up any dat that I could off the phone and then just flash it. Especially since I have a notebook could do that anywhere. It's a nice idea but can't see it being really all that useul in my opinion.
[General Topics] Black93300ZX:
You're forgetting, most people who would steal a cell phone don't even know what "flashing a ROM" is.
[General Topics] Zaiaku:
OK Yes that is true, so atleast have to give that too some consideration in it.
[General Topics] Kraize:
Lol yeah, most people in my town don't even know what WM is.

Mhm. I'll be getting a tilt for the meantime and then upgrade later to the fuze if I can.
[General Topics] Kraize:
UPDATE: I mean wow. Really. I just got my phone back :) I feel really relieved. But to all of you at&t users. Make sure you have telenav on it!

[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] -]AF[-Death:
Hello,

I bought a V50 LMV500EM the days. Now I have looked at all the root instructions, but nowhere is this version mentioned.

Can I now assume that for the V500EM no root and TWRP is available or is there still something coming ?

If I have overlooked the corresponding thread, please link times.

And another question. The phone should be able to 5G, n78 band, my sim card can 5G, but have not yet 5G on the display, and in the mobile settings is also only GSM/UMTS and LTE to choose from. No 5G

Or does that come only with the update to Android10 ? I have not yet made any updates and therefore still installed Android9.

Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] granazias:
As far as i know,in order to be able to connect with 5g,your device must be certified from your gsm carrier,even if it is capable.

Better come in contact with your carrier and they will give you directions on how to do it.

For example in my country,even if you get a 5g capable device,you have to send a message to the carrier from your 5g device,and they send you back some kind of carrier settings in order to be able to connect to 5g.

Just give it a try.
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] lnt976:
Hello,

I don't know if you found your answers : regarding the 5G connection, it's a kind of joke in V50, there's only one band so if isn't the one supported by your carrier don't wait too long for 5G. concerning the root and trwp, I assume that you didn't go deeper on the various threads because you maybe saw this one talking about rooting and bootloader unlocking. As you have the V500EM you don't need the parts of the thread explaining how to unlock the bootloader, just go through the official way with the LG code. And at last, regarding the updates you can install updates by yourself using kdz files and lg up software, currently we are at android 11, to find kdz files and how to use lg up go through this site or this one and look for your model.

Hope these little tips will help you.
[LG V50 ThinQ Questions & Answers] -]AF[-Death:
@Int976

Hi,

thanks for your support, but I returned the smartphone and am now waiting for the Xperia 5 iii.

The 5G on the V50 was really a joke and have tested it with 2 different providers, so in 2 different networks. But neither in the one nor in the other network 5G had although n78 is supported. However, the battery life did not convince me either. It may be that the battery was no longer the freshest due to storage.

I knew that the V500EM can be officially unlocked by LG, but that's no use if the TWRP is not adapted for the 500EM. Because the threads I had all through. But in the TWRP threads was only the Korean model the speech.

Well now it's too late. But thanks anyway that you wanted to help me.

[Sony Xperia 1 III] elwuero:
I have the spigen rugged armor case. it is protective but slippery. i like the protection and the fact that it has holes for a lanyard, which i use a dsptch quick release wrist strap that i actually use as a neck strap when i'm on a photo outing. but i'm just not happy with it being slippery. i wonder why neither sony or their suppliers here in the us sell the sony style cover. i would be willing to try it.

anyways, any recommendations for a case? i'd actually like to go caseless but am too afraid of scratching the camera lens or cracking the screen. here in the us sony isn't a popular smartphone brand and getting repairs done i imagine won’t be easy.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] tardis_42:
I got the Caseology Vault case because it was the only thing I could get next day when my phone came in, didn't expect to like it but it's actually really nice. Good "sandstone" texture on the bottom 2/3 of it, pretty grippy and pleasant to hold.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] SonySteve:
I personally am used to this Japan brand design, as I generally held my phone around the edge.

Top: G10 Choro

Bottom: Aluminum

These 2 are essentially different in materials, design wise is similar. They added texture on slanted surface to help grip, only the outerst vertical face is smooth flat.

G10 Chrono material is new to me, feels a lot friction when fingers come in contact, and it's also lighter then aluminum version.

So, at the end I'm giving G10 Chrono version a try as of current useage.

I do still apply a glass protector on the front, and soft film on the back to get my phone fully covered.

(drop protection wise, this design of bumper, as long as dropping on flat surface, it'll always the bumper come in contact first, never the phone. If there is object / pointy rocks / etc. then yes there are probability that phone would be come in contact then)

Phone in G10 Chrono, fits perfectly, and its case button is easy to press also.

I just got a spigen rugged armor. It's good so far. But it generates dust on top, and the sides are raised, so it's not great for gestures. Can anyone recommend a good tempered glass screen protector? I figure it could raise the screen so edges will not be such a problem..

Ultra-Thin and Lightweight Carbon Fiber Shell for Sony Xperia 1 III Phone Protective Case (Black) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B096K8GM9...abc_B3WXGZ5WR2YQSGM4HCKT?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

I'm using this one with a supershieldz screen protector. Didn't add any bulk, feels very sturdy and added a nice feel to the phone.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] soundslike1981:
Came to post the very same case, which is the one I got.

I hate cases--ruins the svelt size and premium feel of a good phone. I doubt they provide a ton of protection, but these carbon fiber cases are genuinely thin and add no perceptible bulk, and actually feel quite nice in the hand.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] schn1tt3r:
From my experience, cases damage the phone more than they protect it if you take good care of them. I gave up using cases because dirt always finds a way to get in and scuff the metal sides. If you never drop the phone or place it over rough surface, the phone stays pristine.

Removing the case to clean it often also rubs and scratches the paint on the sides, so I don't understand why so many people use cases and I don't understand why cases with cloth on the inside aren't more popular.

Edit: not to mention how much I hate giving up the premium feel of metal when holding the phone instead of feeling cheap plastic all over the phone.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] richard1226:
Chiming in to say I have both the Spigen Rugged Armor and Caseology Vault case and have used them for a short period of time, both feels nice in the hand. Can't conclusively say which is better, so I'll still need to try it for some time

One thing i noticed (or maybe it's just me), is that the Spigen case have a slightly higher depth for the camera bump (presumably to protect the lens from accidental scratching)
[Sony Xperia 1 III] largo2:
Does it work with this wireless charging case?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] soundslike1981:
Haven't tested wireless charging, sorry. Probably the manufacturer has specified if it does, and/or someone has asked/answered that question on the product page on Amaazon? That said, I thought these sort of cases generally work with wireless charging--again though, haven't tried it myself.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] kintwofan:
Yes it works with wireless charging. I have used 3 different wireless charging pads with it and they've all worked perfectly
[Sony Xperia 1 III] kintwofan:
I'm with you. I've ran my last several phones without a case because I could never find one I liked. I wasn't even sure when I ordered this one, but so far I absolutely love it. Kept the phone light and small and really like the texture
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Mangoon:
Bought a few clear TPU cases, one Aioria leather. But then I also ordered a carbon fiber skin case from Ali Express a couple of months back that just showed up. Keeps the slim design and premium look. Less than $25, but will take at least a couple of months to arrive.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] christopherwoods:
I bought the Spigen Rugged Amor and the CYRILL by Spigen 'Stone' colour, knowing that they're both essentially Spigen. They obviously use the same moulds so the fit is identical for each. No problem with the power button recess or a loose fit.

The CYRILL has a slightly raised bump around the camera hole and the side grips are vertical, so run the length of the phone. It's a lighter slate grey colour, but the back is all one matte shade, instead of the Rugged Armor with its tacky fake carbon fibre effect patches. I hate how they do that. However, the matte effect finish of the main part of the back panel on the Rugged Armor feels really nice, and the side grips are a nice diagonal hatched effect which feels very nice.

Personally, I wish Spigen had already brought a Liquid Air case to market for the X1M3, I love the subtle back panel design and I have them on all my other phones. Hopefully in due course. The Caseology looked nearly identical to the Rugged Armor for even more money, so I skipped that.

I fitted the Spigen AlignMaster (GLAStR) screen protector this evening - like all protectors, the curse of tiny dust particles and a few small hairs, but this time the included adhesive "dust removal" stickers was an absolute blessing. It took about a dozen minor dust removals after applying the main protector, but it's now on and perfect.

I'm mixed about the Spigen's black panels top and bottom, I don't really see why they're there as they add nothing to the design and require a totally aligned fit to avoid cutting off screen edges. However, the alignment frame which comes with the protector makes it so simple to place the glass on to the screen and get it 100% aligned, I wasn't that bothered.

I also bought the 3 pack of PULEN protectors; they're much more basic, standard "tempered glass 9H" style affairs. Slightly sharper edges than the Spigen protector, though the Spigen one isn't totally bevelled either. You would want to use a case. to avoid catching an edge and lifting the protector off the screen.

The Spigen protector fits snugly into a Spigen case, as expected. If you're aligning by hand and using a TPU case, you may want to apply the glass with the phone in the case.

[Sony Xperia 5 II Guides, News, & Discussion] patrickt:
I need a cell phone and I thoroughly enjoy taking photos with my phone. The Sony Xperia 5 II, and other Experia with Photo Pro, are unique in the world of camera phones. Yesterday, around 2 o'clock, my Xperia 5 II bricked. It wouldn't turn on. Connected to a charger the red LED light didn't come on and the phone didn't charge. I panicked at the thought of no cell phone and started thinking of alternatives. They're all pretty much the same for me until we get to the camera.

I don't do social media, I've never zoomed, I don't play games but Calendar, Keep, Maps, Photos, GMail, and messages are used by me every single day. My phone tells me when your birthday is, when my phone bill is due to be paid, and when it's time to take my pills. First thing in the morning I read the headlines on my phone. Depressing.

All cell phones do all these thing pretty much the same.

But, the cameras are different. I am hooked on the shutter button on my Xperia 5 II and the volume button used to do digital zoom. I love Photo Pro which moves the operation to something other than excellent point-and-shoot. I've had Pixels and Xiaomi and Huawei but I'm hooked on Sony Xperia with Photo Pro.

I don't know why my Sony Xperia 5 II bricked and I don't know why it came back to life. I've been checking frequently to see if an app or an update is draining the battery and that's negative. So, life goes on. I'm hoping the Xperia 5 III comes out soon enough that my sister can bring me one.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Guides, News, & Discussion] blackhawk:
What OS version?

Any other odd behavior?
[Sony Xperia 5 II Guides, News, & Discussion] patrickt:
Version 92.0.4515.157 (Official Build) (64-bit)

No other oddities. I've been checking frequently to see if something is draining the battery and so far it's not.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Guides, News, & Discussion] patrickt:
Wait, wrong version.

Android 11

Build Number 58.1.A.5.280
[Sony Xperia 5 II Guides, News, & Discussion] blackhawk:
Any chance it could have got infected by a rootkit?

If so factory reset.

Otherwise probably hardware.

The reset will sort it out more than likely if not hardware.

Regardless backup all critical data redundantly to at least 2 hdds now... while you still can.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Guides, News, & Discussion] patrickt:
Okay, my guess now that the panic has passed. My normal routine is to charge my phone to 80% before bed and then to power down. In the morning, I turn on the phone. Perhaps once a month I forget my routine. If I forgot and the phone had power it could have downloaded an update that somehow drained the battery. That would have made the battery drain to zero around mid-morning.

I downloaded and read the manual for the 5 II and it said that if the battery drains to zero, plugging it in will not do anything for around ten minutes. That would explain the LED not lighting up when I plugged in the phone. Then, when it sat idle for the next night the battery percolated a bit and got enough power to show the "Battery Zero" icon when I picked it up and pressed the power button. But, as the manual said, the LED didn't come on for a while.

Whatever it was, everyone is working fine now. I wish all hysterical panics could be solved so easily.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Guides, News, & Discussion] blackhawk:
Yay!

Consider disabling auto updates before it does toast your phone...
[Sony Xperia 5 II Guides, News, & Discussion] patrickt:
I will when I read the manual again and find out where that is. I did a search in "settings" for "auto" and got nothing that gives an option of auto-update or manual.
[Sony Xperia 5 II Guides, News, & Discussion] blackhawk:
I use Package Disabler. Carrier phones don't give you that options. It can be killed with a adb edit but it's a pain to reenable then if you want it.

Package Disabler lets you easily disable apks on the fly. Useful for troubleshooting too. It will also completely clear apk data leaving no null marks unlike doing it in settings.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] mbarvian:
I know this has been posted close to a million times, but I really think that it deserves a poll and a new thread. Mods, if you disagree with me, please close or delete this thread. I will probably get flamed for even starting this, but I can live with it.

OK, here's the situation:

As very few of you know, I am working very hard on my next ROM release. I have come to a point to actually consider starting over and using Windows Mobile 6, which I have NEVER had any bugs with, unlike Windows Mobile 6.1.

So, let's say that:

1. I cooked in threaded SMS (possible)

2. I somewhat made startup time speedier (disabling the startup animation)

Here's the big question:

Would you use a Windows Mobile 6 ROM?

I look forward to your feedback ;)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] kareeem:
I'm one of those people who always wants the newest (which isn't good at times). I probably would not go back to WM6. I do agree that it was less buggier and all, but it's just a bit outdated in my book.

Great work on the new ROM ;)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ashuzzz:
WM6.1 gives me a better battery life, which is my biggest +
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] cbass:
If you cook in M2D, I will use it. I may not stay with it for a long time, but I will at least give it a try.

I just hate that long ass install process with 39 cabs and 700 soft resets.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] kareeem:
Didn't realize that for my Tilt. I had a defective battery and it would run out pretty fast so i got a replacement from ATT and the battery has been perfect ever since. Would be nice to see a benchmark to compare battery life under the same circumstances on both OSs.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] the_passenger:
my vote for WM6.0
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] kwickone:
I would seriously consider going back. I do think I get better battery life with 6.1, but yeah, you are right....lots of random, odd issues with 6.1.

I would give it a whirl!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] -888-:
WM6.1 has quite few nice enhancements to WM6, so my answer to your poll (where is the poll?) is probably no, I wouldn't "go back" to WM6.

IMHO, and in my experience, most of the bugs in WM6.1 anyways come with other software (that was actually designed for WM6, like some HTC apps).

Battery life

is

better with WM6.1, no doubt (all users of the devices that got WM6.1 facelift said that). Thats a major fact to consider.

Having said that: if you would cook a WM 2003 SE for Kaiser, I would have jump on it as if it was some hot girl ;)

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] -888-:
WM6.0 isn't bug-free either ;)

The least amount of bugs in any of WinMo OSes (IMHO) were in WM 2003 SE... but then it was much limited in some function compared to later WinMo OSes...

Actually I think each one is apples and oranges, all of them have their different and distinct bugs, features and pros & cons ;)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] mcmexican:
If I could get the battery life from wm6.1 in wm6.0 I would love to use one of Alexs roms :).

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] deputynl:
WM 6.1

For me, the biggest reason to use WM6.1 is the improved bluetooth support. I use my phone with a carkit (Parrot) every day and the WM6 (and I have tried quite a lot), always gave me trouble with dropped calls, the carkit thinking that a call was going on when nothing was happening, low volume.

All of these things are solved with 6.1, so I would not go back.

Good luck with the new Rom,
