[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Snowy_:
Hello all.

This phone [GT-I9195, S4 Mini] died about 4 years ago and I've always thought it was hardware related. The other day I found the phone again and i was hoping to pull some data off. I plugged it into my pc and came across the "qhsusb_dload" which turned out to be quite common. I installed a driver and it turned into qualcomm HS-USB QDLOADER 9008. I came across a unbrick IMG on this forum and used it on a micro sd which to my surprise actually made the phone vibrate and turn on the display. The following text appeared on the display:

Now I am at a complete loss on what to do next. Does mmc_read failed indicate a hardware failure?

Some help would be greatly appreciated. If im leaving required information out please let me know and I'll try to provide.

This was the debrick img. that was used

​
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m3al1te:
I have the same problem. The fact is that the memory has so many bad sectors that it has switched to read-only mode. And to launch you need to write to sectors, but the phone cannot write data.

RUNNING WITH MAGISK

Further inspecting the lines of logcat -b radio, it seams that ril-daemon isn't started when I'm booting with Magisk/ root, like in the previously attached file. Also getprop shows way fewer props with 'ril' in the value than starting non-root, though altering in count between boots. Reading this https://wladimir-tm4pda.github.io/porting/telephony.html and under RIL Initialization "RIL daemon reads rild.lib path and rild.libargs system properties to determine the Vendor RIL library to use and any initialization arguments to provide to the Vendor RIL" I'm wondering, can it be something as simple as a missing PATH or env value? Anyone have the same experience?
[General Questions and Answers] midnightember:
RUNNING WITHOUT MAGISK

logcat -b radio shows way more output and many more things happening. I get the impression that the issue is in or close to the application framework layer... I'm now, still hopeful, attaching two files of logcat radio output. One after boot, up to the login screen and one after login.

Between my post and now, I did however "Remove Telephony Subsystem" through setting => Phh Treble Settings => Misc features, (just trying things out as I read stuff) and I haven't been able to get SIM working again, also not after draining the battery as previously worked. Can this be related? How do I get it back (without reflashing)?
[General Questions and Answers] midnightember:
Finally some time to update again. As I have understood, Lineageos18 seems to have an extra level of complexity with the need for mounting system as rw and gets more complex if it is encrypted, so I'm still with magisk patched twrp and GSI Lineageos17.

My SIM still isn't working while booted as root, and I can at least determine that rild is not started and also not present/ available through the terminal. As to why and how to fix that, please let me know if you do! I read some places that PATH has to be inserted with the value of PATH from the non-root env in the init.environ.rc file. That did not make a noticable difference for me. I have not installed the magisk app. So far my SIM is working better than before in non-root/ normal system boot, even after restarts and switching to and back from root.

Some (trivial) things I found many questions and few answers about so far on my quest, in case it might help someone:

I could get rid of "too many symbolic links encountered" in the twrp terminal by setting PATH to just one bin location like '/sbin'. I also had this ld.config.txt error in the terminal (which indeed did not exist on my phone) and was able to trace it back to the /system/system/bin/dlinker64 binary trying to mount that file. I just renamed that and that resolved the error. Then I was able to use the terminal to edit the init.environ.oc file (I could not get adb to work in twrp mode). Not anything specifically, but I found this (among many posts on this forum) quite helpful https://www.didgeridoohan.com/magisk/MagiskInstallationIssues.

Hey everyone! My phone is running DCD's rom and I dunked it in water. Some buttons dont work but it still turns on. I put in a claim and got a new phone. Does Asurion care what ROM is on my phone when I send it back?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] peepeesea:
i doubt it. i sent them my 6700 with the no2chem ROM and they didnt notice (care). plus i swaped out the lcd for my buddy because his had a scratch and they didnt seem to notice that either.

i sent a bricked phone stuck in BL back to asurion and got a new one lol.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] serfboreds:
Based on the guy that I talked to at Asurion, as long as you send it in on time they don't really bother themselves with what is on the phone. They do diagnostics to make sure the board and other essential parts run properly, then swap out the parts that don't perform to specs.

If you are able to revert, do it for good measure. If not, no biggie.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Questions & Answers] juan_21:
Hi, i have been trying to fix my aunt's phone, which is a note 10+ exynos variant. Her phone fell into the water and that made it soft bricked.Before it fell into the water, it worked fine, it has never been rooted or installed a custom recovery.

i rebooted into download mode, everything looked fine, i flashed the official rom files through odin, when it restarted, it entered bootloop. I plugged it again into the pc and something weird happened. While i was flashing the rom, the phone 'disconnected' and i got the message

'an error has occurred while updating the device software'. I tried to load it into download mode, but the phone won't be recognized in the pc. I tried: reinstall Samsung USB drivers, running odin as admin, etc. Nothing worked, odin won't recognize the phone. Please, any advice on anything i can do? I'm new in XDA and thank u a lot for reading this

Did you take it apart and dry it?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Questions & Answers] juan_21:
yes, the phone is dry, it allows voltage input
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Was the rear cover removed?

The phone shouldn't soft brick from water unless it got inside... or is the soft brick a separate issue?

Cause and effect, first things first...

If any water is inside it must be removed before it permanently damages the device.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Questions & Answers] juan_21:
When I first received the phone, i realized I could boot in download mode. The android version was 9, I downloaded Android 11 rom for the exact same model. Everything looked fine, it finished flashing and then the phone softbricked, it couldn't enter the android os. I did again reboot in download, I reflashed the rom, the phone somehow disconnected in middle of the AP flash then j got the error message. The computer won't recognize the phone, I tried different cables but not working.
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] m5james:
So back in the day I used to bake my own ROM's and whatnot but I haven't done that kind of stuff in years. I finally upgraded from a Sprint SM-N900P Note 3 to an AT&T LM-F100VM LG Wing that I bought off eBay. Took the Wing to T-Mobile today and the little girl behind the counter said it can't be activated because it's an International phone. Seller said the phone is network unlocked, going into phone settings Network and Mobile Network Type both say unknown, it doesn't say anything about AT&T other than the boot screen, so I'm hoping someone can help while I'm still doing generic Google searches.

I had an issue turning on the Note years ago becuase apparently it was a pre-paid phone, was told it couldn't be activated either yet got someone else at a different store and boom, it works...I'm hoping this is the same issue w/ the Wing.
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] wrwolf2:
dear XDA poster ,

there are at least six different variants for " LG Wing " and each one has different properties in connection with " cell wireless networks " compatibility and with support of US carriers also exploit different radio frequency bands for LTE networks.

" T-mobile US " and " AT&T " LG WING variants support the very same spectrum of radio frequencies [ bands ] for " 5G NR " however those two LG WING variants also show two different lists for radio frequency bands in connection with LTE cell wireless networks.

if you got that code correct [ LM-F100VM1 ] for your phone model, it is definitely an AT&T variant then when unlocked the phone is also compatible with ' T-Mobile US ' and its " 5G " network however " LTE-A " [ 4G generation cell wireless ] network compatibility may be limited and depends on the area or region where you live [ i.e: although you have an unlocked phone, you may still be limited with that choice of a network operator, depending on the firmware variant also unlocking frequency bands. ]

Verizon and its retail network resell instead this model [ code: " LM-F100VMY " ] and a LG WING variant also compatible with mmWaves for " 5Gnr " networks and when unlocked then, " LG WING on VRZN " is also most suitable to be used internationally [ with both LTE-A and 5G networks ] and while also inserting SIMs of worldwide carriers.

International variant instead [ global or LM-F100EMW ] is most likely supported by VRZN networks in the US.

please note:

although unusual.... " firmware swap " may still occur and you may want to verify your unit was delivered with correct " firmware variant " for that phone model. if you don't have the packaging to read the labels, try inquiring by IMEI code or serial number to get results and a " code " identifying LG WING model or variant. then retrieve two separate lists for your handset' supported radio frequency bands and for either " 5G " and " LTE " networks

[LG Wing Questions & Answers] m5james:
I'm still lost though since I the phone I bought says it's LM-F100VM, it's originally an AT&T phone that's been unlocked, yet TMobile chat says it won't work fully (I don't care about VOIP, I just want a basic working 5G phone. I tried checking against AT&T's website but they don't have a simple IMEI checker option. The two IMEI's I have both show the same issue, 354772160436644 and 351716700583921. I'm lost because I assumed an unlocked phone was just that...I could swap a SIM and switch networks every month if I wanted to and that they'd work 100% no matter what...that doesn't appear to be the case.

[LG Wing Questions & Answers] wrwolf2:
dear XDA poster,

eventually T-Mobile " 5G " network coverage won't reach all areas and regions in the US and when traveling, you may at times be forced to register with " TMO LTE-A cell wireless network. " in order to use your phone with a SIM card of " T-mobile US ", the handset also needs to support " LTE-A network " of your preferred carrier [ that is our understanding of the message. ]

" data and internet connection " may still work however when registering your phone on TMO " 5G network " , calls and text may not work [ depends on TMO enabling select technology for making phone calls using cell wireless network ]

that said... when you live and work in areas with full " 5G " coverage for T-mobile US wireless network , you won't encounter issues and even when an unlocked " AT&T variant for LG WING " isn't officially supported [ as long as it's still possible to make phone calls when connected to a " 5G " cell wireless network though ]

what we did when living and studying in the US, we entered a t-mobile " shop " and asked politely to try an activated SIM card we then inserted into the unlocked handset we had then. you may however just ask a friend and borrow their t-mobile SIM card [ SIM card will always work when in unlocked phones unless SIM is instead locked for specific IMEI code and phone. ]

please also note there's one letter missing at the end of that LG WING model code you wrote.
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] m5james:
I guess this is what I get for not wanting a cookie cutter S21 :/

Tonight I took the SIM outta my Note 3, trimmed it down to the size of a NanoSIM and put it into the Wing. It didn't change anything identifying the network, it only showed my phone number, yet it never got a signal and calls didn't work at all.
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] wrwolf2:
woah ... that's not wise to say the least.

SIM's are often cut to fit exactly the SIM tray for cell phone and unless you have a proper tool and " SIM cutter " , it's really hard to size it correctly.

i guess your best bet is to also just enter a LG store [ or LG corner in a department store ] used to sell phones and find out what options you have in terms of carriers [ although we gathered you'd prefer to avoid AT&T and stay we TMO ]
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] wrwolf2:
.... consider in addition, you also need a " subscription plan " or a pre-paid plan also enabling the phone to use " TMO 5G network " [ the SIM plan linked to that SIM card you used with " Note 3 ", isn't necessarily ready for TMO 5G network ]
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] wrwolf2:
dear XDA poster, we gathered some additional info while making inquiries by IMEI code and that phone is, apparently, a variant of LG WING on AT&T network.

Brand:	LG
Phone model:	LM-F100VM
Product model:	F100VM1AY

- next step -

you likely want to search a carrier deployed " 4G " and " 5G " networks supporting radio frequency bands we can identify with that list of compatibile cell wireless networks for LG WING [ AT&T variant _ F100VM1 ]

- you now need to find out more information about network coverage and yet to understand what technology [ " LTE " and | or " 5G " ] has been deployed for your specific area or region while your favorite carrier [ TMO ] may still only support select radio frequency bands for LTE [ 4G generation ] cell wireless network and in your area.
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] m5james:
There's template online that show how to cut them, it didn't help the Wing and is still working in my Note that I'm writing from right now.

LG is leaving the mobile phone business and I can't say I've ever seen an LG store anyways.
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] m5james:
I'm planning on going to an AT&T store tomorrow to look at plans and talk to someone in person. AT&T tends to cost more monthly but most providers aside from AT&T stuck at my work so I've been reluctantly considering switching anyways.
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] wrwolf2:
dear XDA poster,

that sounds a good alternative although we can see no reason why unlocked LG WING on AT&T won't work with SIM's of TMO too [ " T-mobile US " ]

as long as your area is served by TMO and its " LTE " network exploiting one or more of these radio frequency bands: " B2 B4 B12 B66 " and the area or region is also served by TMO and its " 5G " network exploiting one or more of these radio frequency bands : " N41 and N71 " ... then you won't have problems when registering your " AT&T variant LG WING " [ LM-F100MV1 ] on TMO network.

[ NOTE: in order to connect to 5G network, your SIM plan must also enable " 5G " cell wireless network connection. since your handset comes customized for other carrier ( AT&T ) you might as well have to add and edit ( Access Point Names ) " APN " profile manually and when browsing android' " Settings >> Network & Internet >> Mobile Networks " ]

EDIT:

you may also want to use " phone keypad " then enter a code to access " engineer service menu " and manually enable some additional radio frequency bands, while selecting menu options to access pages showing " radio frequency bands " can also be enabled as you wish [ there's a post on this forum about that however... that code, to be entered with phone keypad, isn't always the same for each variant of LG WING ]

finally...the following may also help to edit and tweak carrier policy, while using phone keypad to enter code: *#*#4636#*#* , then select " Phone information " option and yet search for " Set Preferred network type ", tap then scroll until you see [ and set ] " 5gNR "
[LG Wing Questions & Answers] m5james:
Update...phone seems to be working so far after all. LONG story but the GF and I hit Verizon and TMO today, one of the employees at TMO was part of the design crew for the Wing and she was able to change some settings and get it working...I don't know what part of 5G isn't working based on the screenshot above, but otherwise it's been fine so far today. I'm still gonna refer her to the secret settings thread floating around here to get her .02, otherwise thanks all for the help :-)

I was able to remap my assistant button. I do not know if my previous uninstall of Google as well as the Google assistant App(s) had any bearing on the results...but I did use ADB to uninstall those things and it did disable the button, because when the phone was unlocked pressing the button did nothing at all. However, I did notice that when the phone was locked if I pressed the assistant button it would call up the login screen, so evidently it was still doing something!

At any rate this is how I did it:

[Sony Xperia 1 III] hotcakes_shinku:
The post/link by jaseman is also discussed in the thread link I posted. xda has been deleting duplicate threads, and your thread maybe a duplicate of the thread I posted which is why I redirected you there.

Anyway, as recommended, you should use the app above, Shouko / XPERI+. I quote from their github readme:

As mentioned, root is optional. You can use ADB if you don't want to root your phone. I didn't root mine, I used ADB and it works nicely when I tried it out. There are also instructions posted in the app on how to grant those ADB permissions, but if you need more help, feel free to ask.

Btw, If you use side sense as I do, you can also set a gesture to take a screenshot. I went back to this as I wanted to use the button for Google Assistant after all.
