[General Questions and Answers] QQWEE:
I was worried on rooting my brand new Realme c11, I just bought it a few weeks ago. And I was started on learning some technical stuff about computers, so this is my first time to learn about rooting an Android device. Through some digging, I learned about “bricking,” an android device as a result of rooting failure. I was frustrated, since I really wanted to root my phone. And I can’t get a hang of it, for how should I proceed for the best way possible with 100% success rate of rooting my phone. But where should I start? There are different methods out there but I’m afraid to try them, because of the anxiety of bricking it. And as the manual suggest: “If the user rooted the ROM system of any third party or modified the system file by cracking, it may lead to security risks (though, I am not bother about the security risk)...Realme will not provide any support or responsibility for the final use in these cases.” As my intuition suggest for these precautions I’m willing to take the risk of rooting it, If the outcome give better result for my satisfaction it is worth it to take the leap of faith.
[General Questions and Answers] :
You'll never have a 100% success rate: The risk of bricking the device is always given. :)

Is there a way to increase volume on custom rom (Sakura os, based on lineage) using root, so it's more efficient than other app running in the background, I can't hear anything from speakers and even from earpeice speakers, I tried editing the files, but I get that error "read-only system file, tried to mount system to read and write, but didn't have any luck, any help would be appreciated

I suggest you try Viper. You can send me a private message if you want me to send you the zip. I have a rootless one which works even better than one intended for rooted phones.

I finally released Postero to production - and even made a promo video (best I could manage!) to hopefully give a better idea of the gameplay.

It's a casual, turn-based gravity battle with multiplayer etc. There's no ads or anything, so please enjoy (or if not, let me know why!)

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zspeciman:
When I play a video on kodi streaming or local file, the play/pause button remote control button works as it should. However, when I run any voice command, such as "Alexa what time is it?" afterwards the play/pause button doesn't work. All other buttons work fine. If I exit kodi and run it again, it works again. There is always the option to use the select key to get the OSD (On Screen Display) for the Video Player during playback, but its not as convenient. Anyone else experience this issue and is there a way to solve it?

Running Kodi 19.1

Thank you.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antony.casamento:
I also have this problem.

Latest amazon fire cube, up to date. Kodi 19.1.

The voice command for play/pause does nothing.

Also pressing the play/pause button on the remote does nothing.

To get it to pause or play whilst a video is playing, I have to press select to bring up the on screen display/controls and manually select the pause button on screen.

As mentioned above, voice and the pause button on the remote seem to work at first, but after a while it stops.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tek420:
Anyone come up with a fix for this?

When I first got my Fire Cube I was able to say, "Alexa, pause" and, "Alexa, play" while in Kodi and it would pause and play as expected.

Now all of the sudden, nothing. I now have to use the remote to get to the player controls bar and select the pause button as the regular play/pause button does not work.

I thought my Kodi was corrupt for whatever reason so did a rebuild from scratch (uninstalled Kodi and factory reset the Cube) and for about a day I had Alexa voice commands in Kodi again but it stopped working again. I suspect some Amazon update to the Cube is breaking this.

Has anyone successfully connected their WM6.1 HTC S620 to Ubuntu?

Simple file transfer would be a good starting point.
[HTC Excalibur] gixxum:
ill try tonight...
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
I gave it a shot but ummm let me see what is going on.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
For simple file transfer could you use WM5torage and it gets recognized as a flash???
[HTC Excalibur] beartard:
WM5torage is your best bet for file transfer. Multisync with the SynCE plugin are supposed to work for contacts and calendar, but the gods would have to smile on you, the starts be aligned, and you'd have to hold your mouth just right to get it working.

Almost forgot....obex in ubuntu (but not kubuntu) works with the Dash over bluetooth. In kubuntu, I think it's a one-way trip, but I can't remember which (the PC or the phone) that can't receive.
[HTC Excalibur] johnambler41577:
Not to hijack this thread but has anyone had any luck getting the dash to work with the internet sharing with Ubuntu via usb. I was never able to get this to work unless I am having one of my dense moments. My only source of internet at home right now is the dash. (Perhaps there is a driver I can download through another computer with an internet connection and save to a flash drive). I've been meaning to ask this question a couple of weeks ago but have since been busy and forgot. I figured I would ask here first before hitting up the Ubuntu forums.
[HTC Excalibur] beartard:
I don't remember the results I got while playing with it, but as soon as you connect the Dash to Ubuntu via usb, it detects it as another network device. As far as the actual "tunnel" you need to set up to get tcp/ip over the link was always outside my realm of interest, so I never really messed with it.
[HTC Excalibur] ney frota:
to transfer file, i use bluetooth and ftp, no wm5storage

bluetooth is the best for ease use! works perfect in ubuntu 8.04. just right click file and send by bluetooth to phone.

ftp its good for complex transfer (multiple files, folders, etc). I use resco explorer on windows mobile and proftpd+gui on ubuntu

WM5torage unmount memory card from windows mobile to mont on usb. Because i use memory card to store emails/webcache, i got some freak errors using wm5storage. (like moving memory card to "\memory card 2" folder)

i do not sync anything (email, contacts, notes or whatever).. but i do backups (from time to time) using ppcpimbackup (not a smartphone app but works [bugy gui] )

I need test ogg sync or something to sync with my google account. did you try something like?
[HTC Excalibur] swyftmeister:
Thanks!

Thanks everyone. WM5storage works a treat over a USB connection.

Tried connecting over bluetooth but I got an OBEX error. Will take a longer look at it when I get chance.
[HTC Excalibur] acidd:
hi @all,

i use WM5Storage for filetransfer with UBUNTU.

Funambol for sync my KAISER over HSDPA works without problems. You only have to install the funambol-programm on your PPC and config the account on myFunambol.

http://my.funambol.com

http://www.funambol.com/

The Evolution-mailclient in UBUNTU can be synced with myFunambol too. you need to install this app:

https://launchpad.net/genesis-sync

If you flash your PPC 2x a week like me, funambol is the best, because it configures by installing automaticaly the mailaccount on the device. only need to put in username and password :-)
[HTC Excalibur] swyftmeister:
Thanks Acidd.

The pointer to funambol is a useful workaround for the 6.1 SMTP problem.

Where can i get a nice Wm5torage version?

The stuff i have does not want to work on my WM6 Samsung i600, i get some error?
[HTC Excalibur] acidd:
if you dont get a connection with wm5storage, you need to check the two points in the menu-->troubleshooting --> "disable concurrency" and "disable RNDIS on activate".

i dont know where i downloaded my version of wm5storage but its V1.8.

[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] KARTIK REDDY:
I've 3GB Indian Variant (ZB601KL). I'm currently on the same build 340 but I want to completely re-install the same Stock Rom build340 version, Factory reset won't work since it doesn't wipe system partition & root,recovery partition & similar things. Last year i used many modded 3rd party apps, gave few of them accessibilty permission also like to Forest app. Only now i realised it could've lead to few of those apps access to the system/root/recovery files or the if any malware gave itself root access . So i want to get rid of any such modification if any were made, or any virus/triojan if entered into phone's system. I want my device to be as it was purchased newly. Can anyone guide my how to do it ?
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] RMS16:
Flash custom recovery to clean the system, or you can simply do that by flashing a fastboot firmware. That will completely erase all the data and reinstall the stock firmware.
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] KARTIK REDDY:
can you share any guide for flashing custom recovery for my stock version. Also if i want to do the 2nd option should i use adb & flash the AFT version of stock rom available,will it work & completely erase system partition,etc... ?
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] RMS16:
316 firmware:

https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1YUAy1w2LsR4lEBHatjFnwgxV-xDFw4j6&export=download

Adb:

adb-setup-1.3.exe

drive.google.com

Steps:

1 install adb and asus usb drivers on your pc

2. Extract 316 firmware

3.reboot to fastboot mode

4.head towards extracted firmware

5. Look for flashall_AFT

6. Click on that and wait for the process to finish

If you cant flash by this method copy the firmware files into adb folder (located on c drive) and then use flashall command 😀

Hope this helps!

[Samsung Galaxy A20 Questions & Answers] dedq:
You can flash ROM from other country but you will most likely end up with error because your modem will not work due to different frequencies.

You will not be able to receive calls or call someone. Your mobile data won't work either.

You can give it a try but there is a risk that it doesn't work.

No. There is no way to get a working Android 5.0+ ROM on your Tab 4, thanks to the Marvell chipset which is not open source and developers cannot compile a ROM.

It has a heap of guides for the hardware. Also if you get stuck you can pm Mike as he is the MASTER of HTC hardware... He a great guy and helps where he can.

Cheers...:D

Found this too (another gem from Mike) - http://www.mikechannon.net/PDF Manuals/Hermes Fuse Location.pdf

thought it might help...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
Well eventnick has been in touch.

For general info though, I'm not convinced this is a fuse problem due to the fact that the red LED is showing. To the best of my knowledge, when the fuse is blown then the circuit is totally dead with no LEDs showing.

The only guidance I can suggest (other than sending to a repair centre for testing) is to persevere with some of the battery charging unblocking methods - it can take a lot of patience and even a few days in between!!

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
Continue it because the RLOD is not caused by a faulty battery but because the charging circuit gets stuck "in a manner of speaking"

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] eventnick:
well ive been trying for several days now and nothing.

can some one confirm that the Red light does not light when the fuse is blown?

:(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ultramag69:
A fuse allows power to travel through a circuit. Its like a doorway. When the door is open you can go through but if the door is closed you can't. A blown fuse would be the closed door. No power through hence, no lit up Led....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] tytn008:
My hermes as well will not power up. Phone fell from the couch and when I tried turning it on, nothing happened. I then plugged in the USB charger to see if that would do the trick. Phone still wasn't able to power on, however, I did see the right led light blinking red with the battery in and USB charger plugged in. With the battery out, the right led light stayed solid red without blinking.

If anyone is willing to helping me out, I'd greatly appreciate it. Hopefully it's my battery.

UPDATE:

Luckily I had an extra battery that I had purchased off eBay a while ago. The phone turned on with the new battery. :)

Cool, that would've been my advice, test with a different battery 1st. Easyto replace while hardware fault can be hard, if not impossible, to fix.

My phone will not charge either....The phone will not charge when using AC charger or USB, the red or amber light does not come on. works fine on battery power, but it is drained now. I took the phone apart and checked the fuse according to the link above, but it was fine.. are there any other suggestions?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ultramag69:
Try cleaning the usb connector on the phone with isopropyl alcohol and a cotton bud. Do it while the phone is off. Maybe a dirty connector, otherwise the battery connectors may have been broken in a drop.

Hi eventnick,

Sorry i am not willing to check this........

I just pepared a simple overview of some of the voltages on the hermes mainboard.

Take this without any warranty, just did some quick measurements :D

Insert battery and press power button for a minimum of 2 seconds.

Even on a bricked board (IPL/SPL brick) these voltages could be measured.

Check your mainboard and try to find the voltage points!

Maybe this helps to find out whats wrong!!

Discussion welcome :p

[Huawei MediaPad T5 Questions & Answers] freddieventura:
Hi there,

So After seen many tutorials I wanted to proceed to unlock the bootloader of my Huawei Mediapad T5 , here are the specs

```

Model: AGS2-W09

Build No: AGS2-W09 8.0.0.360(OCEC431)

CPU : Hisilicon Kirin 659

Android Version: 8.0

```

I have downloaded the last build of `potatoNV` along with the SER Drivers ,

I have booted in untrusted driver mode (on Win10) and have installed `usbser.sys` as far as I recall

I proceed opening the Tablet from inside and shorting the "short point" and I get connection with the Computer , I installed the drivers , and tried on `potatoNV` with `Kirin 65x (A)` .

I get to the end of the progress bar , and then I get the problem as there is no confirmation that the process has been performed correctly. The connection dissapears , and If I try to boot on rescue mode and I do `.\fastboot.exe devices` or `fastbook.exe oem device info` it doesnt show no device at all.

Also the `rescue mode` menu says `Phone locked , FRP Unlocked` So I guess I had no luck

Please see the video on the link (note that the 2 takes are not synchronized)

doubt-mediapadt5-bootloaderunlock.mp4

drive.google.com

What I may be possibly doing wrong ? May it be the USB connection (cables or connectors) ? or the drivers I downloaded?

Please any assitance will be appreciated.

Thanks

Hey there I just saw the message :D :D . Please if you can guide me a bit of what I may be doing wrong? Also If there is a way to share the Drivers files that you used that would be great (I'm not sure if it was a matter of drivers or general clumsiness , please If you have a minute to check the video tell me what may be wrong on my "Technique") Thank you!!
[Huawei MediaPad T5 Questions & Answers] Rockel:
Just saw your responce now (please use reply next time, I will get an notification then :) ).

The "Kirin 65x (A)" you've used is the correct bootloader. So guess it would have been something going on with the drivers or the procedure.

I recently (about 1 month ago) rooted this tab myself so I think I will have quite recent files for doing so. Maybe I can send them to you if you like. But I should have save the websites where I got them from too. But need to check it up for you then.

View attachment 5391207

Did you have used the settings above?

You did had recieved the "New unlock code" message?

I have to go to work now, but I could help you further later this evening if you need further assistance (y)
[Huawei MediaPad T5 Questions & Answers] freddieventura:
Hi, thanks for assisting me. Yeah well, the version I used of PotatoNV(the last build) just had the option of Disable FBlock so I did that.

Also I tried wth a previous build that was showing both versions as you are showing and it happened the same thing.

My guess are more focused on 2 probable mistakes by my side either:

- When shorting the short point Im not doing it correctly. (not sure if this, as the device gets detected by PotatoNV and initiates the process)

- (Most likely thisone). Wrong drivers, I have downloaded them through a link found in a youtube video, and the video was not specific about this Tablet. Also there were a bunch of drivers within the same file so I installed one that looked like the correct one (but not 100% sure)

Anyways thanks for taking your time really and appreciate a reply but always whenever you find free time obviously. Take it easy today at work 💪
[Huawei MediaPad T5 Questions & Answers] Rockel:
Not sure, I should get into it again, but I'm not sure of potato is able to start the procesure or finding the divice if not shorted correctly.

Do you have a screenshot of your potato output/ results?

How are you performing the shorting procedure?

I can see if I can look for you for the right drivers tonight.
[Huawei MediaPad T5 Questions & Answers] freddieventura:
I hve uploaded the video which shows all the output and how Im shorting the point. The video though is composed by two takes and are not synced in time but that is how I do it.

doubt-mediapadt5-bootloaderunlock.mp4

drive.google.com

Let me know if you can watch it on there. Thanks 👍
[Huawei MediaPad T5 Questions & Answers] Rockel:
Oh yes, forgot about the video in the OP...

Seems you're folowing the wrong procedure with the shorting proces.

And seems your potato version is a bit outdated. But don't think this will be much of an issue.

- Your tablet needs to be turned off.

- cable removed from the tab.

- start potato

- then short the circuit (tab turned off).

- keep it shorted and insert the usb cabel (the other end should be in the computer already)

- the tablet starts (i believe in somekind of flash mode. And i believe you should not be able to see the Huawei logo in this procedure).

- after 2 or 3 seconds after booting, release the shorted circuit.

- i believe it should display you now some info about the tab itself in potato when you press start.

P.s. Don't forget to make a screenshot of the results or write down the newly given unlock code. So you can use it afterwards to lock or unlock your bootloader at a later moment, without opening the tab again.

P.s. 2 I just read in your comment that the recordings are not synchronised. So it's possible you were following the correct steps above. Correct me if I'm wrong please
[Huawei MediaPad T5 Questions & Answers] freddieventura:
Thanks very much for your explanation , I will do this when I am back at home and let you know .
