[General Questions and Answers] MEGA__MAX:
Hello! I also went down this rabbit hole in the hopes of using the tablet as a Home Assistant kiosk. The only success I was able to achieve was using the app SpaceDesk to cast my host computer screen, and use the browser-based dashboard. This worked decently well, although it wasn't as smooth as I would have liked. I also occasionally got "Network Bandwidth" warning messages every once in a while, even though everything is hardwired via ethernet.

Has anyone had any luck recently on this hardware?
[General Questions and Answers] Saboral:
I have this display up and running as a kiosk. I successfully gutted it and replaced the internals with a RPi 4 using the controller referenced above and using this adapter to adapt the touch screen ribbon cable to the PI using I2C.

MECCANIXITY FFC FPC Connector... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CLY96DZW?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Powered the PI from the IR output of the display controller.
[General Questions and Answers] MEGA__MAX:
That's awesome Saboral! Congrats on accomplishing that and thanks for sharing the information, I'll proceed down that path.
[General Questions and Answers] MEGA__MAX:
Got the items ordered! Thanks again for the guidance Saboral. Would you mind sharing your PI config code for the LCD/Touchscreen? The only touch interface I've dealt with before was TFT with Arduino.

Did you implement any features like the motion sensor, microphone, or speakers? I thought about doing the speaker/microphone after reading about the latest HA update that uses an LLM for the voice assistant, but my current ecosystem uses Apple homepods for voice assist, and I have a feeling Apple will be announcing an AI implementation at their June 10th WWDC event. I will be pursuing the motion sensor for screen awakening.

I completed a write-up on my blog at:

[General Questions and Answers] MEGA__MAX:
That's awesome! Thanks Saboral, fantastic write-up. My LCD Controller finally arrived today, and I was able to make some good progress. I got everything working except the touchscreen. I'll do more troubleshooting tomorrow, but just in case you come across this first, would you mind verifying something?

The FFC/FPC connector appears to has the pinout labeled on both sides, but the numbers disagree with each other; I gather it depends which way the cable is inserted. I followed the pinout on the side that only has the odd # labels, instead of the reverse side that has labels for every pin, as my research indicated Pin 1 should be furthest left on the mating side.
[General Questions and Answers] MEGA__MAX:
Played with it some more today and was able to confirm that I had the correct wiring on the FFC/FPC connector. In case anyone else comes across this, my issue was that I'm running Raspberry Pi OS Lite with LightDM, which did not list dtoverlay ilitek210x in the overlays folder. Instead I used ilitek251x, which allowed the touch function to work, but the x and y inputs were inverted. ilitek251x did not seem to have the same invert options as some of the other dtoverlays, so I had to use:

xinput set-prop 'ILI210x Touchscreen' 'Coordinate Transformation Matrix' -1 0 1 0 -1 1 0 0 1

Which got the touch screen working. Additionally, I used this power adapter to avoid cutting the power cord.
[General Questions and Answers] Ryukashin:
Hello,

I was having trouble with my phone service and was told to try to swap sims to ensure the device was unlocked. I did so with an old sprint sim and now I have the OMADM notification that activation failed and I can't get rid of it. The sim from my current carrier doesn't uninstall the sprint activation service that was installed with the other sim.

I found out that I can use XDB to uninstall packages but I'm not sure if I should uninstall OMADM as it seems to be the program that handles a lot of phone functionality.

Is there specific packages to uninstall to remove the OMADM "Activation not complete" message?

Thanks

I know I'm replying to an old thread, sorry. I'm wondering if any has the stock T-Mob boot image for Android 12, I flashed a boot.img for the unlocked one and now my phone is boot looping. Has anyone pulled the stock Android 12 boot image for T-Mob yet? Or have a link for the full T-mob Android 12 OTA?

Replying to my own reply here, but I found a link to the T-Mobile Android 12 OTA here: https://community.oneplus.com/thread?id=1599362

[Motorola Moto G100 / Edge S] danilocps87:
Only if you have an Edge S device, because chinese rom is Edge S exclusive (read below to understant why)

Edge S = you can use ANY Edge S or G100 roms

G100 = You can you ONLY G100 roms.

G100 doesn't accept Edge S kernel, this is why you can't flash Edge S roms on it. But Edge S accept G100 kernel.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] jannen:
Anyone knows how to change how soon calls divert to voicemail? i usually get just 2-3 rings before caller diverts to voicrmail. the oyjer issue is the voicemail icon stays on forever after you have listened the mails...

thanks
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] tildesley:
u have the option of changing it to 30 seconds in settings/phone. i hate voicemail so i tried to turn it off; t-mobile then sets it to 15 seconds which is the default :mad:

the icon issue is a pain, the only way ive found around it is to delete the message then turn off and on. tedious yes, works yes, annoying yes

dont think its the phones fault though :cool:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] jannen:
where?

I can't find those ettings in settings/phone... could you please tell me where to change to 30secs?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] tildesley:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Howzxf:
T-Mobile allow you to adjust upto 25 second delay until voicemail is initiated.

Key in:

**61*+44062"then your number minus first didgit"**25#

example:

**61*+440627886123456**25#

Then dial

Hope this helps

Hi,

Anybody out there with a clean stock ROM for this rig?

Blackview TAB 10 with a Mediatek MT8768

I rooted mine and it was epic. So I kept screwing around and it was also epic.

Then for some reason I flashed a Russian rom cause, dunno, I like strangers with candy, I guess, and when I went to flash the original backup... it was unreadable.

I will buy you a pony if you post a copy. Think of it! A real pony, all to yourself! No lines, no crowds, no whining party poopers refusing to use coasters. Nope, just you and that party-pony in exchange for a copy of your ROM.

Unless you hate ponies. Then I will protect you from ponies for the rest of your life in exchange for that rom.

Thanks,

Mike

I plan to bring this phone for my family member whose carrier supports this phone model but only mentions models supported with software made available by them.

I suppose if it has a stock firmware or firmware from different carrier/region/country I am be out of lock and wifi calling and VoLTE may not work?
[Moto G 5G Plus Questions & Answers] Beetle84:
Hey mate, im from australia and can confirm that none of the australian carriers have volte/wifi available. You may need to flash a different firmware to make it appear in the settings. Its been awhile since i sold my g 5g plus and cant remember if it was there on the australian firmware or not, but i doubt it.

You can get firmware from lolinet

[General Questions and Answers] hughhmannn:
so a friend who owed me some money said he had an extra phone because he just got a new one. I can confirm this because I was there when he got his new stylo 6 so not thinking much about it (aka trust) and I desperately needed a phone so i agreed. he dropped the phone off at my work the other day, its clean, no cracks, i was very happy with it. the one thing that i couldnt confirm was it was unlocked. because of my trust with this so called friend i believed him when he said he hadnt charged it cuz he didnt use it anymore.

all good...i have a charger at the house i thought. and i did, but i turn the phone on and its locked.

i go to message my buddy, no response. i call, no answer. dude literally wont contact me because idk maybe doesnt know code (like he stole it or found it) or he knows code the and the phones software is ****ed, idk. but i ordered a metro sim and am hoping they will be able to help.

did i buy a paperweight, since i guess im not geitting paid back either by my degenerate of a friend, whom im removing the title of "friend" Its a nice phone and i would like to be able to use it.

any ideas? im nervous to reset because i dont want to google lock it incase he was logged in.

and for anyone wanting to imply im the thief go learn about KARMA. LEARN ABOUT IT. VERY REAL AND ALWAYS OCCURS.
[General Questions and Answers] mobnoob:
It's not clear what phone you received also another strange thing is the phone looked in good conditions but no charger??

Another huge mistake you made is you didn't even turn the phone on in front of your "friend"?

The phone still has a Google account from the previous owner so even hard resetting it doesn't give you a working phone.

Imagine if the phone is stolen and someone just hard resets it and gets away, it doesn't work this way because Google will ask you the previous owner's login details.

In addition it looks like the phone has a screen lock so you're out of luck.

You can check online if the IMEI was blocked = stolen phone or unpaid phone rates.

Depending on your country of origin you should call the Police and report this "friend" and say he sold you a stolen phone, you believe it's stolen because the phone is locked and that guy refused to deal with you.

Lesson learned, buying second hand phones is very risky unless you know what you're doing.

Regarding Google, I sold a Google Pixel3 with hard reset and the new buyer was able to use it while a Lenovo P2 with hard reset will only allow the setup once it gets the previous owner Google credentials!
[General Questions and Answers] Jeremy619:
om...., well... if it don't work anyways... I'd reset it, worst case it Google locks, AND asks for screen code and Gmail, and your buddy should have that if he or she ever responds anyway
[Sony Xperia 1 III] OmJo93_:
I am looking to buy this phone, but am very cautious because it isn't officially available or supported in Canada. So I am wondering, from those here who have done purchased and use this phone as their main one, what is the Xperiance (heh) like? What works? What doesn't work? Would you recommend it?

Also, what version are you using? I've found a few websites selling the US variant (XQ-BC62), but most of the sellers have the Chinese(?) model (XQ-BC72).

I've read this thread, so I understand that I cannot just simply purchase a non-US model and flash it with a US rom without having LTE issues and no apparent benefit. Was really hoping that was a feasible option to maybe get some carrier features to work. But honestly, I don't care for 5G (besides, Freedom Mobile doesn't even offer 5G), I don't think I have ever used wifi calling, and I doubt phone calls with VoLTE are vastly superior to voice calls without it, so losing out on those features isn't the biggest issue for me. I just want a phone that works, though, and not something I will constantly need to fight with to keep working.

So yeah, if anybody has anything to share, I would greatly appreciate it!
[Sony Xperia 1 III] kevinmcmurtrie:
I'm coming to the Xperia 1 III after having a SA 5G phone and IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE. The Xperia is always suffering from spotty signal problems while my older T-Mo LG Velvet 5G is solid everywhere, despite the two having the same public spec sheet. The Xperia likes LTE 66 + NR 71, which makes absolutely no sense. LTE 66 is fast but a bit unreliable while NR 71 is ultra-reliable but slow. The Xperia can't operate without LTE 66 so NR 71 is just there to drain the battery and turn on the "5G" indicator. It can't seem to use NR 41 at all. The LG typically uses the best three of NR 2, 4, 41, and 71.

Think about the future:

HSPA is as good as dead. What little of it remains is badly overloaded. No VoLTE/VoNR will soon mean no phone calls.

Newer bands are 5G only

I don't know if it's the latency improvements or the way 5G/LTE bandwidth sharing works, but a saturated cell tower performs a lot better on 5G than LTE.

I'm hoping Sony fixes the BC62 soon or this will be a $$$$ mistake. A bad cell radio is no fun.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] OmJo93_:
Well that's extremely frustrating to read...

The one phone that checks all the damn boxes regarding hardware, and of course it doesn't actually work well as a phone. You had one job, Sony!

At least that is something that can be fixed, right? But yeah, I'm not really down to spend $1500 CAD on a phone that might work...
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Forbesii:
I am in Canada and I have XQ-BC72. I am on Fido and I also tried Rogers wireless sim card. NO VOLTE SUPPORTED. Not only volte, no carrier feature are supported (volte, vowifi, voicemail, visual voicemail). However, basic LTE function works fine. The network speed is very good, I think the speed is the standard speed.

A funny thing is I didn't have 4g+ support when I first came to Canada. The network speed is about 40mbps. But I got 4g+ support after I inserted a Rogers sim. I mean insert a Rogers sim and take it out and then insert my Fido card. The 4g+ sign disappeared in a few weeks but the network speed seems remaining the same, which is more than 100mbps now.

Also if you're interested, it doesn't support 5g on Rogers. It might because it's on TW rom, but I don't want to flash my phone and try again since flashing ROMs in other areas makes LTE unusable.

Flashing ROMs doesn't help on carrier support. I am trying to get the carrier support by unlocking my phone this winter. There's a guide on XDA, you can check.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] OmJo93_:
This guide?

I'll wait before pulling the trigger then and see how it goes for you. I tried contacting Freedom Mobile to see if there was a chance they approve this phone for their network, but the response was basically "we don't recommend getting unsupported devices, just get a Samsung" lol...
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Forbesii:
I think it is okay if you don't care about 5g. I'm here using the phone for three months without any problem. Actually, I don't use voice calls that much and I don't have any scenario that I need network while calling. The 3g call quality is fine and I think even better than WhatsApp. It's a good phone for daily use though.

How did you get the MBN files? As far as I was aware, Sony doesn't provide them and you need one specific to the phone/chipset, no?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Forbesii:
Sony does, but they software locked these files. The MBN files are already in your phone.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] cloneman1:
Can you give more details on this? I'm looking to buy a sony xperia 1 III or IV, and I need to figure out if VoLTE / 5G / VoWiFi will work on Rogers.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Forbesii:
Never use non-Rogers or non-fido phone with Rogers/fido. Even though we have the mbn files. I was with fido and I borrowed a Rogers sim for testing. Sadly the results was I can't have anything work on fido and only 5G worked on Rogers but slower than LTE. Non of them has VoLTE or VoWoFi working. Rogers the company is famous for blocking phones from registering IMS which is the key of VoLTE and VoWiFi. So I switched to Virgin plus.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] cloneman1:
So what features work for you on virgin with the Xperia 1 IV? us or Intl version
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Forbesii:
I have an XQ-BC72 (intl. ver.). I can guarantee that VoLTE and VoWiFi work on Virgin and Kodoo; since they are the sub-companies, I assume that will work on Bell (Virgin’s parent) and Telus (Kodoo’s parent). Also I can guarantee that 5G is working on Rogers; I guess 5G would work on other twos and speed would be much better if it’s a US version phone since US and Canada has very similar bands. It is proven that VoLTE and VoWiFi WOULD NOT work on any Rogers and Rogers’ sub-companies. I will keep trying these features on other carriers.

ViLTE is not tested because I am still finding out how to trigger the feature, but unfortunately I only have another iPhone with me.

Please aware that all these things would work AFTER you unlock and root your phone. Canadian is not officially supported by SONY which is very weird.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] cloneman1:
So if 5G is working on Rogers, and you place a phone call, it drops to 3G? lol.

Any Help is muchly appreciated
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] Trash.umu:
Are you keeping the CN version. When I mean CN version, I am referring to the firmware, not the hardware.

I can help you with bloatware for WW firmware, which should also be good on CN hardware using WW firmware. I am unsure what apps are on CN version phones, so you will have to ask someone else who has CN firmware phones.

[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] Trash.umu:
I still have my finger print scanner working after using johnny886 fix. Let me re-read his statement to verify that the wrong firmware thing will not pop up. The finger scan portion of the phone is apart of the 10 files you save on your computer. If it doesn't work, it is because it was deleted or corrupted and it would just need to be reinstalled. This occurs in other peoples firmware fixes because their posts aren't as fully encompassed as johnny886 fix was.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] twistedumbrella:
If you had gone through with simply flashing raw firmware, that is where you would end up. A lot of the warnings are from when that was the only method available. If you do a complete conversion, then it will be just like having purchased a WW device.
