Place your original .cpr on the phone sounds like you made an error in the .cpr to me the simplist mistake will stop the homescreen loading.
[HTC Excalibur] Knightofhearts:
I dont know if this is a bug or something I am doing. It worked for a while then it started happening. When I start Audio Manger from either the start menu or the home screen plugin it would lock the phone up to the point I have to pull the Battery.

Sound??

First off love it and awesome job!

1 i listen to streaming audio every morning on the way to work and this morning i noticed the headphone audio was vary vary low!

i am on 1.6 is this a bug or do i need to try to re-flash?? please help

i do love this rom and don't want to have to try another one!
[HTC Excalibur] Joe USer:
voice command

Has anyone been able to get voice command properly working in this rom? It's not included, so I used a copy from an earlier rom, but it's not doing too good.
[HTC Excalibur] l0lcats:
I thought so too. Unfortunately I had just made a backup of the .CPR after making the changes.

I've flashed to 1.6. All is well. However, it's impossible to add a photo to an Outlook contact. If I try it pulls to my docs in an explorer view but nothing populates and if I hit Menu all I see is the top of the menu "1 View".

Also, while trying to set icons for apps in the MyPrograms panel the explorer will respond slowly and the default icon will flash for a few before actually showing the icon image. It doesn't break anything. I can still set images for panels. Just seems clunky. It's the setting a pic to the contacts that worries me. It did the same with NRG's 1.3 and yours and Ricky's 1.5.

One thing I am doing differently now is storing all of my custom icons under My Documents\My Icons on the device rather than the storage card. Before I had the panels looking to the storage card for their icons. I don't know if this would cause the issue or not but I'm just centralizing the icons and trying to play it safe. I haven't even changed the font of the time. Just the size and position.

Hopefully nothing goes wrong.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Putting the .png icons on the phone is much faster for the phone to access another thing to take into accout is the .png size you want about 64x64 or even less less data to read @ once.

Also for adding pictures to contacts open up Pictures and Videos go to the picture you want to use and press Menu\Save to Contact rather than doing it through Contacts.
[HTC Excalibur] Joe USer:
Battery life

I've noticed something interesting about battery life and this ROM.

I don't think the battery is draining faster, but I do think the reporting of the battery level might be off.

I started off at 92%, rebooted a few times and the phone reported 100%. About an hour later it was in the 80's, which is where it should have been.
[HTC Excalibur] l0lcats:
Good call. YTMND
[HTC Excalibur] mossimo53:
i was using audio manager and also windows media player...dunno if its jus me but the sound is very low..even with using headphones. i have put the volume to the max and it would be approx 30-50 percent to how it was before i flashed the rom. any ideas why this is so or if there already is a solution to this...sry i have not looked through the forum if there already is a fix but i just do not have time...thanks
[HTC Excalibur] l0lcats:
edit your profiles and increase "System Sound" to 4 or loud.
[HTC Excalibur] mossimo53:
thank you l0lcats...it fixed the issue..i actually tried that while i was reading the thread. i appreciate the response.

To Change the PagePool Size

this is to change the pagepool size of this rom

the pagepools is set to 12mb by default

this means you only get 18.46 MB on boot of the device

but if you were to change that to 4.50mb

this means you would get 27.48MB on boot of the device

Right on Rick thanks for this!!

Camera Album also working on 1.6

It works also on 1.6.

As soon as I put a picture in "\My Documents\My Pictures", it stops working (always returning to first pic), so it must remain empty.

----------

I re-added et9 files and .reg from the NRG release to have Italian et9 working, anyone suggest a better alternative?

Thanks

im staying with 1.5 i had no problems when its buggy free ill update again

other then that great rom i love it!!!!
[HTC Excalibur] LiverpoolFCfan:
Hi Rick,

A few questions for you if you know the details :-

Are 12 and 4.50 the only options - or can you use sizes in between too ?

Is it just the actual executable code that goes into that area - or if the executing code creates memory blocks, are they also stored within that area ?

Is this area used for system processes too - or just user processes ? For example- right now if I use the HTC Task Manager Application View I have maybe 2.5M of processes running, but if I switch to Process View, other processes like device.exe, gwes.exe, filesys.exe,etc. are running and the total is more like 20MB. Now I assume much of these would be non-swappable anyway - but do any of those processes get swapped ? If not - I can see that a pool of 8MB would be loads for my typical use.

Thanks

Snapdragon's are notoriously hard to root. If the device is running well you have little to gain and potentially a lot to lose.

I run two stock N10+'s Android 9 and 10.

I use a package disabler, Karma Firewall and settings to optimize them. I block all firmware OTA updates. They run great and security is not an issue. Current load on this Pie variant will be 2 yo this June, still fast, stable and fulfilling its mission* with minimal maintenance.

*this is what counts

Thanks for the info about a potentially system-wide adblock, I'll look into that while I'm waiting.

I understand that it runs well and "security" isn't much of an issue but I've heard so much about customizing and improving phones with root and also I'm growing increasingly paranoid about the amount of data that google alone (not to mention other tech companies) has access to, so I want to at least learn more about the process, then I'll decide whether I want to or not.

Could you go into further detail about what I potentially have to lose? I had some questions in the original post about what I would lose by tripping knox and if my carrier would care to make my phone wifi only. Could you help answer those questions? Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 5G Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
You're welcome, it a cool settings mod. Kills app ads nicely and offers some protection from black listed sites when web surfing.

You have a working phone presumably with no issues. You can limit Google's data access as is.

So many "I bricked my phone" threads on XDA...

Those 3rd party online unlockers may represent a severe data threat.

Any usability/functionality consequences of rooting will need work arounds if they exist.

The knox efuse is hardware based, no way to reset it. So the any knox based features that don't have rooted work arounds will be lost permanently. If that's your primary phone you might want to consider what happens if it's off line for an extended period of time.

Using free Samsung customization themes, icon packs and the Good Lock family of apps you can extensively mod a Samsung. Many 3rd party apps that work well without root.

I have two N10+'s, one on Android 9, the other on 10 which are their factory loads.

They will most likely never be upgraded because Google Android is more like a lame copy of Apple now.

Lots of issues with 12 across the board not just Samsung.

Roll back to Android 11 if you can and package disable OTA updates to stop this nonsense.

Android 9 and higher are reasonably secure unless you do something stupid.

Security is not an issue with Android 9. Almost 2 years on this load and no malware issues. Using only a few precautions like disabled wifi, Karma Firewall and care with installs/downloads.

I can use my apple I phone 13 pro and my Laptop to mirror to the same VIZIO TV using HDMI cable input. However I want to be able to cast the Tablet (DOFU sports) to my TV for a larger viewing screen mirror. Tried 5 different double blind tested cables so I know it is not the physical cable connection. Is there additional software I need to enable or do we need to DL something new specific for my current tablet to perform screen mirror of live viewing?

Thanks! now let's see if this helps with Gold Card users not being able to unbrick.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] xmodinc:
can u plz explain me what this actually is? am guessing its a diagnostic utility for the elf but how and when are we supposed to use it?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] dsixda:
There's some information in the Herald Goldcard page (check the link from the Elfin Goldcard wiki).

I haven't tried it yet.. but maybe it does some cool stuff like bypassing Model ID check?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] dsixda:
Are you able to get the SDO file as mentioned in the service manual (page 35)? I assume this is an all-Elf unbricking image.

The HTC website requires login to obtain it.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] 911sniper:
Can't help for that...
[Touch GSM ROM Development] sandman01:
Hi!

I test the file on my bricked Elfin.

Normal flashing via SD card is impossible because the bootloader doesn't start the flash process.

However the diagnostic file runs without any errors.

Only the last menue point of the screenshots "Change ColourID" isn't at my screen.

My ELFin is still bricked, maybe there is a special trick to unhide this menue entry
[Touch GSM ROM Development] dsixda:
Same here.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] 911sniper:
Try this version. Compatible with ELFIN & Add [Change Color ID].
[Touch GSM ROM Development] dsixda:
Hey bro, what does changing Color ID do?

EDIT: Booting from elf0diag.nbh makes it go into a DIAG> prompt in MTTY. I don't know what commands to use though.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] 911sniper:
I think it's no use whit the MTTY. Many official tools are the elf0diag.nbh format.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] dsixda:
When this one starts, it says "Please Input Password".

Note: You cannot start any ELF0DIAG.nbh from SD if you have a USPL installed; you have to flash a signed SPL first.

[Touch GSM ROM Development] sandman01:
Hi!

I testet the new diagnostic File, and now I can change the Color ID.

Black and Green are available.

Black change the MID to ELF030000

Green change the MID to ELF030001

The original MID can't be restored!?!?!?! (it was ELF030050)

Maybe there are more Versions of the diagnostic tool which change the device into other colors.

So please gi'me som instruction what I can to do?

I can download or recieve files. maybe is possible to recieve an image of Gold card unbricker? or something that allow to load from SD card or USB?

Write to me here or PM or on my e-mail.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] dsixda:
Why are you posting something off-topic here?

Post in the Onyx thread and mention your SPL/IPL.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] dsixda:
Really? I'm still at ELF010150 (I ran device_info.bat).. What does device_Info.bat say for you?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] sandman01:
I dumped the USB port. (SnoopyPro + mtty)

There is also the change from ELF030050 to ELF030000
[Touch GSM ROM Development] dsixda:
That's pretty cool.

Are there any shipped ROMs with this Model ID (so that you can use Gold Card)?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] sandman01:
I tested the Netherland one (ELF030000), but without success
[Touch GSM ROM Development] dsixda:
Oh, this is what I got:

I originally had Model ID of ELF010150

If I change to black I get ELF010100

If I get change to green I get ELF010101

I don't care because this is my spare/test Elf ;-)

BTW still no shipped ROMs that start with ELF0101..?

EDIT: My device_info.bat tool still reports ELF010150 although the ELF0DIAG.nbh reports ELF010100.. So I guess this "real" Model ID is stored in an encrypted area of memory, likely in the GSM radio partitions?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] 911sniper:
Thanks for testing! What about the IMEI writing tool? try this password 600120
[Touch GSM ROM Development] dsixda:
How do you enter password LOL there's no keyboard ;)

Does each number correspond to a button (e.g. volume, power, send, end keys?)

Also I can't open MTTY while it's asking for password.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] sandman01:
Same here :-)

Only the text "Please Input Password" came up after trying to launch Bootloader (= starting from SD)

Security level not cleared!!

Hi All,

I tried it but I got the message:

"Security level not cleared". I saw 3 versions and tried all 3 with same results.

I have high hopes on this diagnostic program to try to get the serial on my SD Card, so I can create a Gold Card and bring my device back to life after several months.

Maybe I did something wrong? Maybe this version is not suitable to my device?

Follows the info about it:

Elfin 100050

Hello all,

As the title suggests, I'm wondering if it is possible to root the Red Magic 7 Pro, and if there are any "consequences" of unlocking the bootloader like how Samsung shuts off Samsung Pay and OTA updates? I'm not too familiar with the Red Magic series.
[Nubia Red Magic 7 Pro] AmmarHaseeb:
Yes, it's pretty easy to unlock the bootloader and root.

Hi Soumy1234,

I've already try these commands :

fastboot flashing unlock

fastboot oem unlock

fastboot oem unlock NUBIA_NX709J

fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX709J

I think the EU version is lock or use a special fastboot command.
[Nubia Red Magic 7 Pro] Soumy1234:
It seems weird to have the EU version be locked, but I guess Samsung already does it with their NA versions. OEM unlocking is enabled tho right?
[Nubia Red Magic 7 Pro] Lucas VT:
I have the EU version and i was able to unlock the bootloader and flash the patched boot.img.
[Nubia Red Magic 7 Pro] Lucas VT:
I have the EU version and i was able to unlock the bootloader and flash the patched boot.img.

Checking what you are doing i dont see if you went to the dev options and enabled "OEM unlocking".

After that, reboot on bootloader and you should be able to unlock it with the fastboot command.

You will need to recalibrate the fingerprint sensor (Recalibrate) and you will lose the ability to install OTAs.

I currently have the ROM version NX709J_EUCommon_v4.08 that has idle battery consumption issues and i can't install the OTA update NX709J_EUCommon_v4.12.

The stock recovery does not have the ability to use adb commands nor flash update.zip files, I'm checking how to make my own TWRP but its a first for me.
[Nubia Red Magic 7 Pro] Soumy1234:
By calibrate fingerprint sensor what do you mean exactly? Did you have to remove and redo the fingerprint or was there like an image file you had to flash again?
[Nubia Red Magic 7 Pro] Lucas VT:
You can check the link on my message to see the process, you will get a message when trying to use it saying that the calibration data was lost and that the sensor must be calibrated before using it.

The calibration process is a factory thing that can be accessed trough the dialer.

I'm wondering if I purchased a regular google Pixel 3 SIM tray for my Pixel 3 XL by mistake. It fits nicely on the outside but I don't know if the XL trays are longer than the regular pixel 3 trays and reach farther down on the inside of the slot.
