flash kdz using lgup if you got the Korean variant
[LG V50 ThinQ Guides, News, & Discussion] hooutoo:
Will give it a shot. Wondering about the vwz kdz, if i could get it to boot to a recover.img?

btw thanks for the help.
[LG V50 ThinQ Guides, News, & Discussion] Bronnel:
yes if you have verizon v50 you can flash verizon kdz , it works with a patched LGUP which you can find in G8 forums somewhere, you're welcome.
[LG V50 ThinQ Guides, News, & Discussion] hooutoo:
Nah, I have a v450pm which is sprint so it seems lgup is out or at least i havent found anyone that got it to work with sprint model. i just get a device protection error when i try it.
[LG V50 ThinQ Guides, News, & Discussion] Bronnel:
the unbrickbackup is from a sprint , so it should definitely work for your device , but you might need to give the rawprogram a couple of tries to get it to work , I hope it works for you.
[LG V50 ThinQ Guides, News, & Discussion] hooutoo:
Nah, it never had anything to do with using the Raw0 thru 6 to restore the partitions. That worked. The problem was somehow I corrupted my FTM partition which is a killer during the boot process. I would get the original splash screen and the then the splash screen would just start flashing. I would have never found it if I hadn't paid $14 to have the phones restored via Medusa 2.2 pro/Russian dude. He restored the entire phone but when it start to "Splash Screen flash" again he new exactly what it was. He loaded the FTM partition with a copy he had and boom, it booted right up.

I now have a working v450pm, boot unlocked, twrped and root. Did I read somewhere that you flashed one of the A11 roms? If so how's it working? Recommend one?

[LG V50 ThinQ Guides, News, & Discussion] Bronnel:
I'm glad you finally got your phone up and running again, I recommend making a backup of all partitions in case something goes wrong again , and make sure you save the backup on google drive or something , because it may get corrupted overtime.

I tried most roms available for v50, but I think Evolution X is most stable of them, it was really smooth and fast, but I haven't test out everything, I only installed it to see how was the experience then went back to stock.
[LG V50 ThinQ Guides, News, & Discussion] hooutoo:
Were you able to activate on a US mobile network ie tmobile or att? Don't know if you're in the States.

I tried the CrossFlash rom here: xdaforums.com/t/guide-crossflash-v450pm-to-v500em-android-11.4342455/#post-85790865

But it doesn't seem be able to actually logon to a mobile network. One guy said he got data on Verizon but couldn't make a call. I had the same problem with Google Fi. I had data temporarily but couldn't make a call and now it won't even get data.

Hi , I have the same problem stuck in edl mode and unable to boot into download mode and not booting up .

Hi , I have the same problem stuck in edl mode and unable to boot into download mode and not booting up .

My phone is a SK telecome lg v50 , so can i use this unbrickbackup file to flash ?
[LG V50 ThinQ Guides, News, & Discussion] Bronnel:
I think it should work, but first backup fta, modem a , modem b , modemst a, modemst b partitions, then use the unbrick backup, then your device will boot , but you will get OPID mismatch , now you have two options

1- enter EDL mode and restore those partitions that you backed up, and now you may be able to boot without issue

2- enter download mode , and flash your region KDZ (go to LGE website to download it ) then flashed using patched LGUP which you can find at lg g8 forums

I have not tested this , it should technically work but you must do it at your own risk, I'm not responsible if you brick it to unrepairable state.

Good luck

At least I'm back at square #1 with (attempts of) flashing these VoLTE and VoWIFI files.

Hey, thanks for the vote of confidence. I'm now trying to fix this error AFTER crossflashing an open stock ROM. Found a guide online. Wish me luck!

😅
[LG V50 ThinQ Guides, News, & Discussion] Bronnel:
I really hope you success with it , I have not done cross flashing to android 11 so far, I'm stuck with Android 10 for now, there were reports of the Android 11 to be unstable when crossflashed on sprint, issues like audio , network , etc... , maybe you will have a better luck, I may not update to Android 11 after all since I don't think it is necessary for me.
[LG V50 ThinQ Guides, News, & Discussion] Dzu_nun:
hello bro,i have the same problem as you. but for a different reason, namely a crossflashing error. The device I bought was already using Korean firmware. because I'm a new user and I don't understand then I'm looking for a way to change it to open eu, and my cellphone has a radio off problem. he can't read the signal, he only reads the simcard. can you give me a full backup dump from lun0 to lun5 rawprogram, I really hope someone else's help to fix my device😭

[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] Iarsin:
Hello, I'm Just curious, If lineageOS will run on such a device with such less memory.

Also gingerbread 2.3 will stop most apps from Installation. Therefor I'm also curious to run 4.4 KitKat or CM on it.

I found some articles on the net on how installing 17.0 or 14.0 in Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus GT-S7500. But I'm uncertain, if those articles are serious.

Can't imagine that current Android versions are abel to run on such small memory, but who knows? I'm relatively new to all this mobile stuff and modding.

Maybe it would be better for me to try PostmarketOS or other linux mobile systems.

I want to use the Galaxy Ace to experiment with custom ROMs, rooting and the like, to use the knowlege later in with my wiko ufeel, which I don't want to brick, but which is sticking with an outdated Marshmallow.
[Android Apps and Games] Acoustix Audio:
Being a child of the 1990s, I have loved Winamp for decaces. There wasn't one for Android (not a skinnable one anyway) so I made my own.

I've added direct access to the Winamp Skin Museum so you can choose from over 65,000 themes right there in the in-built skin browser!

It is currently in Alpha, but most features are working already, including (hopefully) pixel perfect skin support.

The project is fully open source, and the Winamp Skinning Engine is fully modular so you can use it pretty much anywhere by simply importing the library and setting up onclick listeners.

The app is available here:

Looking forward to suggestions, bug reports, brickbats and more!

[Fire TV General] agatt:
I can't see both partitions using ES File Explorer. I'm trying to use the 2nd partition that was created using the remote ADB Shell for personal videos and photos. The Ds-2 partition does show the USB icon when installing new apps and I'm sure I could transfer existing apps with the ADB shell. Wondering however if there's an easier way. I can't figure out why one partition works and not the other. I would appreciate some direction on how to get that 2nd partition working and how to transfer personal content to it.

Thanks...
[Fire TV General] Bashar20:
Using the same adp command I can see the external partition but not the internal partition. However both partitions are usable. So I can store content on external and the internal is being used automatically for installed apps.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] TheRabidCrow:
I know this topic has been discussed ad nauseam. But I wanted to double and triple check before I did something stupid. So I have a few questions on changing the home country on my phone. If anyone could point me to where it's already been covered I could go read it up there as well.

Anyways, here's my problem. I've got a S10+ from Singapore and I am in India. I want to change the home country to India so that I can use some payment methods in Samsung Pay India, that aren't supported by Samsung Pay Singapore. What's the least painful method I could change the CSC without messing up Knox and future OTA upgrades?

I have a G975F/DS with the latest updates (FUH3). I'm on OXM_XSP.

Would doing a *#272... be a smart way to do this? Or do I need to download the latest firmware from Samfirm etc and flash through ODIN? Is there any way for me to do this without losing my data?

Thanks for your help!

[Sony Xperia XZ1  Questions & Answers] davestuarts:
I asked this question in the LOS 17.1 thread, but havent had a reply for weeks, giving a try here if ok.

When I installed unofficial LOS 17.1 by derf elot, I had missed the part about having the requird Sony firmeware installed.

Though the phone mostly works ok (about 6 months), there are modem and network switching toasts that pop up and very occasionaly lose coverage.

As the phone if fully setup, customsed and running, is it possible to update firmware ontop of LOS using the xperifirm tool, without losing anything?

Hi,

Being on a Mac too, I never found any flashing tool that was reliable, so your best bet is to use Parallels Desktop or VMWare to launch Win under MacOS...

have you tried flashing via these apps? how was it? I haven't tried it via emulation software since usb isn't as stable as having a windows machine, bootcamp should work.

You cannot do it. I already tried.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Mahmood:
if you are using bootcamp then it can be done and if you are using parrallel or any other virtualization then it can be done but you must first put your phone in BOOTLOADER mode and then connect to mac via USB and then flash your phone.

You can also flash through SD card. That way, it doesn't matter what OS you use.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Trekvogel:
Bootcamp will work fine obviously as it just makes your Mac a Windows machine. I found that the latest Parallels didn' work properly, flashing wouldn't go all the way to 100%. The latest VMware worked surprisingly well though.

There is an open source flash tool called HTCflasher that can be compiled for OS X. It doesn't seem to work though as it doesn't use Linux style paths to usb devices. There is a possibility we might get it to work someday though.

[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Questions & Answers] bombastique:
Hello Forum,

Sorry if this post isn't in the right place; i'm not very good at posting on forums.

My question: does a stock phone already have a SU binary installed?

My situation specifically:

Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact (H8324)

It seems there's a SU binary in /sbin

Trying to execute it results in Error: java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "su": error=13, Permission denied

It seems there's also a busybox installed but I can't get any details about it

I checked my phone with Root Checker Pro by Joey Krim because an app (CoronaCheck) by the Dutch government used to identify yourself and state your corona status (for entry to concerts, festivals, restaurants etc) gave me a warning that my details were not safe because my phone was rooted.

I did not root my phone. I bought it as a brand new phone that was stock in every way.

Does a stock rom have a su binary and busybox installed?

Any help would be welcome! Thanks.
