Good morning folks,

My knowledge is very limited but I'm hoping to soak up information here.

I have an old galaxy s5/s6 that my child destroyed quiet a few yrs ago. Lately I've been tempted to try and fix it myself, and recover the data off it.

It would require me to physically transfer the circuit boards onto a donor phone which I'm semi confident in doing.

Ive searched on here, found the guide on TWRP and I'm trying to understand it all.

My query is this, will I be able to recover my data when I'm finished or will I be spending hours upon hours on this, just to wipe the data regardless.

Ps: once the phone is functioning, I'm assuming it will still have a screen lock enabled, which is why I am unsure if I can recover the data

Thank you in advance for your input

i want to use my pc's internet ( adsl ) trough my ppc's wifi ......

should i use any program or what ???? :confused:

My windows is XP and My phone is Diamond Wm6.1 ( I think you wanna know that :)) ) :rolleyes:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Ikari:
If you have the adsl modem connected by usb or rj45 them you must get a usb/wifi adapter and plug it in the pc. No additional software is necessary.

Best way is to have a wifi adsl router so you dont need the pc to be turn on to use the wifi.

[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] JohnnyBoy743:
So, when i cross more than 3 fingers horizontally in screen, it goes haywire (even starting to take screenshots by itself), it was purchased not even a week ago, and is updated to the last version. Also, it doesn't have any screen protector installed. Is this a trouble with my unit in specific or -still- a common issue? I tried to replicate the issue in my s9+ and on a s20 ultra from a friend and none of them showed this.

[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
try opening IE and Media player? does the same thing happen when both those programs are on and you are surfing the web?
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Do you mean that even from the moment you turn on the phone that the screen is in night mode "dark"?

If you need to do a hard reset you dont need a code. Have attached instructions in pic :) Remove the storage card before you hard-reset.
[HTC Excalibur] BruteSource:
And how would he do that? He has no lcd as soon as he turns on his device...
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
You are in need of a new LCD screen.

I ask about IE and MP cause sometimes, when your battery is weak, not as in 25%charged. Just weak as in about to hit the dirty road dead, it might suck up all the juice and turn LCD off to conserve energy.
[HTC Excalibur] BruteSource:
he doesnt need a new lcd.. seems a hard reset fixed his problem, probably why he hasnt replied.
[Sony Xperia X Performance Questions & Answers] cylord83:
Hello, I have a Sony X Xperia Performance. Stock firmware 41.3.A.2.149 has been flashed. Full wipe was also done with TWRP 3.6.0_9-0_dora.img. I have tested several ROMs: ,,lineage-18.1-20210802-UNOFFICIAL-dora.zip" and ,,crDroidAndroid-9.0-20201123-dora-v5.12.zip" from XDA.

Both ROMs doesn´t allow USB adjustment for file transfer (MTP) under "connected devices" in the settings. But if I go into developer options, enable USB debugging and go into default USB configuration, then I can turn it on.

What is the reason? What am I doing wrong? Thank you!

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] foobar66:
I had already posted this somewhere inside a thread but many people still keep asking the same question.

Attached is a simple Magisk module to enable VoLTE if it is not enabled for your country/carrier.

I don't guarantee that it will work for everybody ... it did work for me though ...

Of course you must be rooted and have Magisk.

Just install attached module in Magisk, then reboot.

The mod has properties for 5G and VoWifi ... BUT absolutely no guarantee here!!!

I do not have 5G and I do not have VoWIFI ... so I cannot even test if these properties do anything or not.

How to check if this is working?

BEFORE installing the module, go to dialer, type *#*#4636#*#*

Select: Phone info, you will see a screen like the screenshot attached below.

Check the line called: 'VoLTE-registration', if the radio button if OFF, you do NOT have VoLTE.

Now install the module, reboot and check the same screen again. If all is well, the radio button for VoLTE-registration should now be ON.

Finally, go to the dialer, dial your voice mail. Your data icon the the statusbar should still be LTE(+)/4G(+). If that is the case you now have VoLTE.

If it does not work for you ... bad luck ... just un-install the module in Magisk.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] luke1018:
i tested 5g is still unworkable.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] foobar66:
Thanks ... well ... it was worth a try ;-/
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] cd993:
Hey man, thanks for posting this.

Hmm so I have "VoLTE Provisioned" rather than "registration", which is toggled on but greyed out (like Wi-Fi Calling - which definitely does work and is supported by my UK EE carrier).

So in theory, based off these settings, perhaps VoLTE should work given the setting looks the same as WiFi Calling and is supported by my carrier, but I don't see HD calling work (this is without this module...)

After installing this module, what I did notice change in the *#*'4636*#*# menu is "Video Calling Provisoned) became toggled on, but also remained greyed out but weirdly when making a call my signal dropped to saying "3G" and "H", with no VoLTE being activated. Removing the module made calls return back to 4G calls, still with no indication of VoLTE.

Posting my experience nonetheless!

Thanks
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] foobar66:
What do mean precisely with "indication of VoLTE"? There is no icon that pops up when you have VoLTE (as opposed to for example OnePlus phones which show a "VoLTE" icon in the status bar).

HD calling is something different - AFAIK nothing to do with VoLTE.

It is normal that you cannot toggle the buttons - similar as in my case.

If during calling, your data remains on 4G then actually there was no need to install this module ;-)

In my case:

- before module installed: VoLTE registration was OFF, during calling data icon changed 4G -> H

- after module installed: VoLTE registration was ON, during calling data icon remained 4G (and I actually verified I still had same mobile internet speeds during not calling)
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] cd993:
Ah, my presumption by "indication" was either a status bar icon or perhaps something on the dialler screen e.g. with Wifi Calling I see the WiFi icon next to the contacts name in my call history.

Wasn't aware about 4G being on and VoLTE - so that's something new!

But also upon checking my call history properly just now I see some calls actually do have not only a WiFi icon but also "HD" next to them (see attached screenshot) so indeed I perhaps didn't need this module!

I guess I've been wrongly looking out for a HD sign on the dialler screen during a call to indicate VoLTE....
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] 96carboard:
Most of those properties are persistent properties. You just set them once with "setprop persist.blahblahblah whatevervalue" and they'll stick through a reboot.

There is definitely no need for a "magisk module" for this.

Only these 4 are non-persistent properties, and from what I can tell, they're all bogus.

ril.subscription.types=RUIM

ro.nubia.nr.support=1

ro.telephony.default_cdma_sub=0

ro.vendor.radio.5g=3

The "5g" ones are probably not advisable. For everything else, it would be nice to know what they actually do before trying them out.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] foobar66:
AFAIK the HD (high definition) icon has in principle nothing to do with VoLTE (voice over LTE).

It is a voice codec with better quality as it suppresses background noise.

However, I believe (although I'm not 100% sure) that the HD codec is only avaible when you do VoLTE calls.

And it will only show if the caller also has VoLTE/HD and in certain network areas.

So technically it is possible to have non-HD-voice on VoLTE, although most of the time they will go together.

And the other way round, it is technically possible to have HD calls when you're not on VoLTE.

That is my understanding ... but I'm certainly not an expert in this and could as well be wrong ;-)
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] foobar66:
Nope .. Magisk uses resetprop ... when you remove the Magisk module the properties are gone, even those that were persisted. So it has nothing to do with sticking or not.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] 96carboard:
I don't care what magisk uses. It is NOT USEFUL for this.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] foobar66:
If you manually set the persist property manually, it will persist after reboot.

If Magisk sets the persist property, you remove the module and reboot, then the property will be gone.

No?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] LLStarks:
I'm not a fan of people throwing Magisk modules at this phone and seeing what sticks. Seeing far too many threads like that.

It's not a Qualcomm phone and should stop being treated like one.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] cultofluna:
Still no volte after flashing the module
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] fuadhdmini:
Yes. Same here. VoLTE not activated. VoLTE uses IMS, so IMS service status needs to have Registered status.

Plus EAB is also needed for continue having internet data while on normal phone call
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] nowy57:

Releases · swangjang/Pixel-Redbull-Carrier-Patch

This is a Magisk module (in testing) for Pixel 4a (5G) and Pixel 5 that enables 5G for Unlisted Countries, VoLTE switches in the settings and add support for more countries/carriers. - swangjang/Pi...

github.com

Sound exactly like what we need?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Anonshe:
In many parts of Europe, HD calling works without VoLTE but in most parts of the world, HD Calling goes hand-in-hand with VoLTE i.e the HD icon in Dialer represents if the call went through 4G or 3/2G.

In those countries, no VoLTE = no HD calling = no calls over 4G = potential inability to use data while on a call.

The Magisk module like most others just enables the props i.e. It exposes the switches and will work only if the carrier configs are on the device. Without the right configs, the module is a placeholder.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] fuadhdmini:
Nope. Those were only applicable for Qualcomm modem.

Pixel 6 Pro is using Samsung modem. The module is enough.

I get mine successfully activated
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Utini:
Can you tell me in which country you are and somehow post a proof that the module works? :eek:

If I am correct then the module basically only changes the following things in the android system?

Is there any way to read my "current values" and export them into a file (e.g. cat system.prop > backup.prop) to restore my values in case the module breaks something?

[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] gorthon:
I am currently using stock ROM, rooted with Magisk and encryption of internal memory enabled. However, the update procedure is really annoying, you can't just flash an update from TWRP, you have to use ODIN and the whole Magisk patching procedure that comes with it.

Is there any other way to use encryption of internal memory while still being rooted?

- BeyondROM can be easily updated, but does not support encryption

- All the other AOSP ROMs have serious drawbacks, e.g. not possible to use the Samsung camera app and hence losing a main feature of this phone (the good camera)

So i bought a sm-g998b (s21 ultra) from australia (telstra) and came to estonia, and here i dont have any carrier aggregation, volte, vowifi, doesnt work, no 4.5g, no 5g, i tried switching bands to european but it says unsuccesful with all of the bands, is there a solution for my problem? eg changing out the firmware or something else?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] RedWave31:
Everything is absolutely normal - a quick Google search would have told you the same.

Estonia doesn't have a 4G network (*country coverage is approx 2% for 4G).

- You'll have a few 4G cells in the center of Talinn

- Since 3G doesn't have VoLTE (LTE=4G), everything is in order.

- VoWIFI won't work either, because *most* of the time, the wifi network must be on your carrier broadband box.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Someguyfromhell:
You're wrong. Even your link shows, that the coverage percentage is definitely higher than 2%, in addition to the fact that this map only contains community-provided data, which might not cover all areas.

All 3 telcos in Estonia have about 99% of coverage of the whole country, two of which (Telia and Elisa) also support VoLTE for certain phones and Telia (also building 5G using DSS) supports VoWiFi.

You can take a look at CellMapper [1] and see, how many 4G towers there actually are in Estonia.

To OP: Are you roaming or using a local SIM card?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Haleskinn:
you are completely wrong, estonia have had 4g+(lte-a) since 2011-2012 and coverage is 99.9% of the whole country, i have had volte and 4g+ work on my xperia xz3 since 2012-2013, i have local sim btw, i am from estonia, 2% can be for 5g rollout but thats not the issue right now, issue is i dont have any carrier aggregation on my s21 ultra and on my gfs s20 ultra, i have mine flashed with odin to SEB latest firmware but that did not resolve the issue, when i go into mobile data service menu it only shows one tower connected there and i already talked with my service provider they said that i should have at least 13 masts covering my location with perfect visiblity + all bands covered so i should be getting at least 6-800mbps (according to their test they ran on my location, yes my isp is doing tests on actual on site locations to help clients), so if anyone has any ideas as what could be wrong or should i flash any other rom on it or something? i am out of ideas, i though firmware flash would fix my issue
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] clipdawg05:

[ZTE Axon 30 Ultra] AJ732101:
As far as I have seen in the stock camera app RAW/DNG is only supported on the main 1x camera module.

This is a real pity because in my opinion the results from the stock camera app is really bad.

The underlying hardware is able to achiev so much more.

Up to version 8.3 ProShot was able to access all camera modules and capture also RAW/DNG images.

In version 8.4 the access to all modules is broken for the Axon 30 Ultra.

The developed images are so much better than the JPEGs out of the stock app.

Especially the 35mm equivalent module (they call it 2x) is phantstic with a huge amount of details: sample on Flickr

Camera2 Probe only detects the main camera (main 1x).

OpenCamera also detects only the main 1x camera.

All GCam mods I found that work can see only the 1x and the 5x module.

Does anybody know another camera app that is able to access all camera modules and can capture RAW/DNG?
[ZTE Axon 30 Ultra] marco.fortuna:
I also tried many Gcams but all have the same issue ( only 1x and 5x are available )
[ZTE Axon 30 Ultra] AJ732101:
I found a litte tool on a telegram GCam channel (NGCam) in form of an APK based on this code here that reads out camera data (I think via Camera2 API).

From the output it gets clear why typical 3rd party camera apps see only the front and the main back camera and the other three modules (0.5x, 1.2x and 5x) reamin invisible to camera apps.

This is in my opinion a very problematic approach as we are forced to stay with more or less bad stock camera apps that do not justify spending a lot of money for so called flagship devices.
[ZTE Axon 30 Ultra] marco.fortuna:
But i can see camera ids 0, 1 and 4 ( tele)

In same gcams i get also 0.5 and 1,2 but are not working.

The ids are visible to many gcams but I don't know why the cameras are not working .

Id 1 and 4 are working so also 2 and 3 should ...
[ZTE Axon 30 Ultra] AJ732101:
GCam is not typical camera app (like OpenCamera). GCam seems to query the modules like the tool I used the overview does. The typical camera apps only seem to query the visible camera IDs.

For some reasons the Samsung GW3 sensors are not working.
[ZTE Axon 30 Ultra] marco.fortuna:
I hope some developer will fix this

Arnova or BSG for sure could do
[ZTE Axon 30 Ultra] AJ732101:
With version 8.4.1 of ProShot the access to all modules/lenses is restored again an with that the ability to capture RAW/DNG images on all four modules on the back and with that to get the most out of the hardware the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra includes. As I am in the beta program there I am not sure if this version is generally rolled out yet.

Not as great as if one of the GCams would support all moduls/lenses but something I can live with very well.
[ZTE Axon 30 Ultra] marco.fortuna:
Thx a lot for the information
[ZTE Axon 30 Ultra] AJ732101:
When searching for an app to capture CinemaDNG I found the free MotionCam. The app detects all camera modules on the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra and is able to capture RAW/DNGs. Also RAW video for later processing in DaVinci Resolve can be recorded. The workflow is not easy but it is a very interesting opportunity.

Also image bursts can be captured that can be developed to a single image with a lot of settings to control the result. This result can also be preserbed in form of a DNG for later processing.

One drawback is that not all the meta data (EXIF) is written to the resulting files.

Applying ADB / Fastboot commands requires the CLIs got installed on your computer.

If you are unsure whether they are already installed or not, and you're on a Windows PC, you in Windows OS's command prompt simply run

where /R C: \ adb.exe

to check it.
