I people, im a bit new here.... is my first post, i wonder ??

if ....

there is anyone that can make the prophet connect via wireless to a pc,

ad hoc, im having a lot of trouble establishing this connection.

im my case i have a thoshiba portable l300, and a imate jamin g3, can´t establish conection ad hoc . is that possible to make ????

Also the final chalenge would be... to find a good tv streaming software and make it work via ad hoc, this way it would be possible to watch tv channels in the wireless range. i have wm6 pro rom instaled and my media player always assumes htc prophet touch, on streaming, and gives a response error, like not possible to streem.

anyone capable to make it work ?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] mhajii210:
I'm using Poco F3 on T-Mobile here in the valley in southern California. I manually enabled VoLTE and Wi-Fi calling. I have my SIM card in slot 1. I'm on MIUI Global 13.0.2 Stable. Everything is working great, but when I drive to certain low signal areas, the phone switches to 4G and will not switch back to showing VoLTE 5G in the status bar even when I'm back to a great signal area. I have to use airplane mode, or toggle VoLTE setting off and back on to get it to switch back to 5G with VoLTE working again. Any idea if there's a way to permanently fix this issue? I don't know why it switches to 4G and never switches back!
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] Nux01:
Hello,

As there is no twrp version for android 13 and therefore for xiaomi pad 5.

Can we install ClockWorkMod or PhilZ in recovery with root manager in order to make a complete backup of the system as with twrp.

So far I've used titanium backup and backup pro, I'll try swift backup and oandbackup instead for one-time backups.

Thank you in advance for your answers.
[XPERIA X1 General] !SINGH!:
Hi all.

i know this sounds odd...

I have two X1's... and both of them have slight dents in the screen.

When the phone display is on.. they cannot be seen.. but if unlit (screen off.. or powered off) and you hold it in the light... you can see distortions in the reflection of light. it thus shows.. a 'dent' in the screen...

I just wanted to know if any of you have the same issue?

thanks all....

I love X1's that don't keep Bluetooth ON!!!!!!!
[XPERIA X1 General] guru_fordy:
Is it a screen protector? Could you take a photo?
[XPERIA X1 General] fards:
Not here, I even took the screen protector off to double check.

Seems a bit odd that you've got two the same.
[XPERIA X1 General] mlinz:
the touch screen on X1 is mad up of several thin layers, its possible that the thing outter layer is dented as there is a small gap between in and the next layer which registers the actual "touch"

Alot of phones with resistive panels seem to "dent" inward toward the center. Not sure why.
[XPERIA X1 General] !SINGH!:
It is hard to show on a pic.. but it definatly exists... and on both of them

I will have a go.... one is more than the other...

I ordered 2.. and both are showing dents.

I had this issue once on a TYTN 2... and it was applying screen protectors..and removing.. appplying and removing.. that eventually pulled the screen straight...

but after lashing out over a grand on 2 phones... i can't be doing with this..

along with the issue with bluetooth turning off... i'm returning them

one litterally never made it out the box. other i used for a few days.. till the bluetooth issue.

back to TYTN II... and await a Touch HD.
[XPERIA X1 General] mlinz:
Bluetooth turns off on its own? Sounds like maybe a power saving feature. Also, if you live in the USA don't get your hopes up for a Touch HD..afaik it will only work with GSM/EDGE/GPRS, doesn't have any 3G bands that work in the USA.
[XPERIA X1 General] !SINGH!:
The bluetooth problem is a real issue.. and Sony Erricsson are developing a fix.

It really does just turn off for no reason.

As for the touch HD... I'm in the UK.. and here.. there is more 3g handsets flying round than are not.

I ordered one .. so.. now i have 2 x1's and a touch Hd tomorrow...

and by monday.. i'll know what is staying.. and what is going.

The Touch Hd.. has answers to give....and the X1;s,... when the Bluetooth issue is fixed by SE... then i will rethink.
[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] Carambarto:
Hi all!

I've been digging through my old phones and I was wondering if it would be possible to flash or force reset an unmodified VTR-L09 Huawei P10 phone automatically.

The issue: the phone was water damaged years ago and I thought the screen was dead but after charging it, I believe it's possible it's a just glitch. The boot logo, the charge icon when the phone is off and the fastboot screen show up perfectly and stay on for hours. The screen turns black only when the system loads. The phone works, I can hear notifications. The phone memory can be accessed through windows just fine to save the files.

What I have tried: putting an update image on the SD in "dload" and rebooting with various key press (not sure which file should be present and can't see if anything happens...) ; sp flash tool (can't find scatter file) ; adb command (phone not detected) ; hi suite (phone not compatible with reset function).

Any idea?

Thanks!

[Fire TV General] mea_pulpa:
I had updates blocked on my firestick (through launcher manager 1.1.6) , yet the stick downloaded and updated to 6.2.8.7 .

Could it have to do with the fact that I am always using VPN (nordvpn) , thus the launcher manager block does not work in this case ?

Does anyone know a solution on how to block future firestick updates while being connecting to a VPN ? (in my case nordvpn)

/EDIT : See solution below
[Fire TV General] mea_pulpa:
Careful out there .

version 6.2.8.9 is being downloaded by my firestick as we speak . (it is a big update)
[Fire TV General] EngineerMind:
Did you have the OTA files disabled?
[Fire TV General] EngineerMind:
What version were you on before it did the update?
[Fire TV General] mea_pulpa:
To be honest , I never actually paid attention to what version I was on since I had updates disabled through launcher manager 1.1.6 .

I felt I was safe .

I only started looking at what version I was on from the moment my Wolf launcher stopped working and I was suddenly stuck on the amazon bloated launcher .

So now the question is , how to stop the future amazon updates ?

As a start , does anyone know what IP's should be blocked ?
[Fire TV General] EngineerMind:
Approx what date did you disable the updates using 1.1.6?

I'm thinking maybe the update was already downloaded (but not installed) BEFORE you disabled updates, and for some strange reason that already downloaded update was activated.
[Fire TV General] jhurtault:
I would use the adguard option to block updates if you set up a new firestick and skip the update via voiceover you have to clear updates downloaded via adb command which launch manager 1.16 has built in command is pm clear com.amazon.device.software.ota
[Fire TV General] Skel40:
Does the pm disable-user com.amazon.device.software.ota still work? On my other post Amazon by now blocks any undoing to the system which involves blocking shell commands. Keep note that blocking updates is now or never and 6.2.8.9 is continuing to restrict the control you have over your device.
[Fire TV General] mea_pulpa:
adguard is a vpn solution . Only 1 vpn can be used at a time . I am already using nordvpn so not possible for another vpn to run at the same time .

i currently use tduk update cleaner . I am running that program manually each time i notice the update has been downloaded .

also need to run it every time i unplug the firestick from its power or else it will update on next boot .

not an ideal situation .

every time i boot up the stick it auto downloads 6.2.8.9 immeditely .
[Fire TV General] EngineerMind:
If you go into the "Block Updates" setting of Launch Manager 1.1.6, does it say that updates are currently Enabled or Disabled?
[Fire TV General] EngineerMind:
Are you 100% sure that you "successfully" disabled updates?

I ask this for two reasons:

1) I caught myself thinking that when I clicked "disable updates" in LM 1.1.6, there was a slight pause and then I saw a GREEN checkmark after it completed it's operation. So I assumed that the green checkmark means that the block was "successful", but unfortunately it doesn't - a green checkmark means that updates are still "enabled". A Crossed Red Circle means that the updates have been disabled.

Another important thing to mention in case you didn't know, is that amazon recently pushed TWO updates: the first update prevented the ability to "disable" updates. The second update prevents users to select an alternative launcher.

So, since you said that you disabled the updates using launch manager 1.1.6, that version is a relatively recent version, so I am thinking that there might be the possibility that the first amazon update (that I mentioned aboce) was already installed on your stick, thereby preventing you from disabling updates. So, when you went to disable the updates in launch manager 1.1.6, you might have also assumed that the resulting green checkmark meant you successfully disabled them, but in fact you didn't because of that first update that was already installed BEFORE you tried to disable updates in LM, and that is why your stick eventually updated to 6.2.8.7. So basically, if you only recently did the "disable updates" in LM 1.1.6, then there is a chance you were too late.

2) The second reason for asking you these questions is that if in fact amazon has figured out a way to install updates even though the OTA files are disabled, this would be a major concern to many users. So, I just want to make sure that all the facts are accurate and that this really did happened exactly as you described.
[Fire TV General] mea_pulpa:
I see where you are coming from and yes indeed the interface to block updates is confusing .

I updated to 1.1.6 right after its release . Definately activated the right blocker since I was checking both options in detail to see what exactly changed (i immediately noticed the interface was confusing) .

Right now the LM unblocker can not be activated because I am running 6.2.8.7 which disables the option to stop updates entirely .

We will never know why or how it downloaded the update on my device since I did not keep a logbook about what and when things happened .

What we do know is : I am on 6.2.8.7 now , it is downloading the 6.2.8.9 update constantly in order to install it .

I already tried blocking over 30 ip addresses that I found in netstat , but it seems that none of them were blocking the update from downloading . If anyone has a working set of ip addresses/ranges to block , I will be happy to try it out .

Or another way to block it from downloading .

(not by installing a second vpn solution as that is simply not possible , and without my vpn i can not watch my content anyway . So I can as well leave it unplugged and not watch anything at that point :) )
[Fire TV General] EngineerMind:
I remember seeing somewhere a list of about 3 domain names to block to prevent firestick updates, but I don't remember where.

Lets see if any other user reports that they had the OTA files disabled, but it updated anyway.
[Fire TV General] mea_pulpa:
Yes many more have already reported they blocked updates yet they got updated anyway .

Anyway , I found a list with 5 dns names and created a block that works for me , while still being able to use my own vpn .

This is how I did it :

Open norvpn on the firestick . go to trusted apps and add "Downloads" (the one with the green arrow pointing downwards) to the list .

Then in your network router interface , block the following 5 url's in the Firewall - URL filter menu (I use an asus router running merlinwrt firmware , so it might and probably will be different from your setup) .

URLs :

d1s31zyz7dcc2d.cloudfront.net
amzdigital-a.akamaihd.net
amzdigitaldownloads.edgesuite.net
softwareupdates.amazon.com
updates.amazon.com

To be redundant I also added the 5 dns names in my dnsmasq .

(create a file called dnsmasq.conf.add in /jffs/configs/

Then put following lines in it :

address=/d1s31zyz7dcc2d.cloudfront.net/127.0.0.1
address=/amzdigital-a.akamaihd.net/127.0.0.1
address=/amzdigitaldownloads.edgesuite.net/127.0.0.1
address=/softwareupdates.amazon.com/127.0.0.1
address=/updates.amazon.com/127.0.0.1

save the file and at the command line type "service restart_dnsmasq" or simply restart your router .)

As mentioned , implementing both is just to be redundant . If you implement only 1 of the 2 (either url filter or dnsmasq) it also works .

Now what happens is , the firestick will consult the router always to download anything on the firestick .

With my vpn activated , or without . Downloading an app from amazon store works , downloading system updates will not . Downloading app updates , I have not tried this yet .

Now the firestick will detect that there is a new OS version to be downloaded , but once it wants to start downloading it will face the block and it hangs and never is able to actually start downloading .

So it shows downloading infinitely in the about - download updates menu .

Before implementing this , I would recommend you install TDUK update wiper on your firestick .

This is how I tested all my scenarios , every time deleting the update with the TDUK update wiper app when it would fail to block the download .

I hope this helps someone .

Currently my 6.2.8.7 is booting into wolf launcher , and also pressing the home button goes back into wolf launcher .

All this while system updates to 6.2.8.9 or above are not coming through . (at least for now :) )

REMARK :

The block will stay working for as long as the 5 url's are hard coded in the fireOS itself . Which I do not know if they are .

In case they are pulled from the internet somewhere , or updated when the app Downloads updates ... amazon might force change the urls some day . So be aware .
[Fire TV General] EngineerMind:
I am a member of a couple different forums that discuss fire sticks, and I have not seen anyone else post that their device updated even with the OTA files disabled.

So, not that I am doubting your claim, but I would like to know about these other firestick groups so that I can join them to keep better informed about all things related to firestick.

What are these other groups?
[Fire TV General] mea_pulpa:
No special groups . Just here on the xda forum people reporting it happened to them too in different threads .
[Fire TV General] EngineerMind:
The amazon updates that disables updates and custom launchers only came out about 2 months ago and I have been subscribed to see any new threads *or* new posts in this "Fire TV General" section.

I've seen users report that Wolf stopped working, and then they realized about the new wolf-killing update.

I've seen other users who heard about the new wolf-killing update and then tried to disable updates, only to learn it was too late.

For example, the below website, which has a huge following, has many posted comments on the topic of disabling automatic updates. But there is absolutely nothing posted after 2/20/22, which I would think that if other users had updates installed after disabling updates, there would have been a few posts about that serious problem, but there isn't:

Block Amazon Firestick / Fire TV Automatic Updates

The following tutorial will show you How to Block Amazon Firestick & Fire TV automatic updates. Amazon is constantly pushing out updates that usually

troypoint.com

However, you are the first and only one (that I have seen) who reported that you successfully disabled updates and for some reason a recent update was still installed.

So, can you point me to some of these "many more have already reported..." so that I can ask those users some questions (like I did above to you) just to make sure they also were positive that they didn't get confused with the green checkmark in LM, so I can see if there are any specific conditions that is causing this to happen to you and these other users (but not to everyone), and hopefully find out a way to stop it.

So, it would be greatly appreciated if you could provide a few links to the other users who you saw reported this issue.
[Fire TV General] mea_pulpa:
Hey JohnC I see you are on some kind of mission .

I think most of these people will have no valuable information for you . As people and firesticks don't keep logbooks . They don't recall/remember exactly .

So remember it is your mission , not mine .

Uff, I've found the option. It is not under the special "Backcar setup", but simply in "Car infotament -> Video -> Reversible assistant lines". Anyway, it would be nice to have more options available like in Teyes.

That would be funky!!!

[XPERIA X1 General] mlinz:
Porting the panels to a TouchHD would be a lot different than importing TF3D to an X1. TF3D is just a today screen shell/plugin. The panel interface doesn't do that..you would literally need to dump and install the entire X1 rom onto a touch HD and replace whats there now.
[XPERIA X1 General] itje:
Nope, not correct.

Why its "easier" with tf3d is because HTC is making the roms with packages now, rather then dump it all in OEMAPPS etc...

The panel can be extracted as well, but thats not a task im gonna do..Im rather gonna remove it totally when I get a fully working kitchen, hard-spl etcetc.. :D
