[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] joy.d:
Hi friends,

is there somewhere they can compare HTC Shifts and HTC Blackstone Windows Mobile Hardware?

Many of our Shift users has the problem, that there within Windows Mobile only

use a 4:3 resulution but the Display can 800x480, same like the Blackstone.

I have an unbranded and unlocked HTC shift and thinking about to flash the blackstone ROM to shift to become the same Display driver within blackstone to test if it works.

Is here any assistence maybe with a donation ;-) ?

one4all - all4one ;-)

Hi, i have a new S22+, i did migration from p30 pro thru app. i'm facing problem with quality of video send thru messenger or whatsup. It getting hard compress , very hard like 240p;

i didnt have that issue on p30pro. even i did 1080p video for test to send. and still. I've change quality in messenger app etc, nothing helps. only if i have like 2-5 sec video quality looks ok. if video has bigger MB its garbage. Did cache clear,reinstall messenger/whatsupp. I feel like i lost my money

Do you think factory reset can help ?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus] Village_Idiot:
Sounds like Messages is sending via SMS/MMS.

Messages uses SMS/MMS by default. You have to turn on Chat Features (RCS) in the settings.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus] Vinci_Pl:
I think i dont get it or you . I am talking about facebook messenger app/or whatsupp ( and its not set as a default messeges app
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus] Village_Idiot:
My mistake. I misread your post. I thought you were using Google Messages.

Make sure you don't have data saver turned on for them.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus] Vinci_Pl:
first thing I've checked :)
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus] Village_Idiot:
It could be a backend server issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus] Vinci_Pl:
and its happening all the time? with every single person who i sent video? My last call is factory reset phone... Its stranage none of s22 users has same problem? Couldnt find any info. maybe app during transfer phone to phone messed up some android settings?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus] Village_Idiot:
Possibly. I presume the people you are sending them to is also using Whatsapp and Messenger. Try clearing the app cache then app data if clearing app cache doesn't work.

My little tok a few times my phone and dropped it on the floor and of course I missed the phone on the flor or outside a few times as well. Suddenly the pictures were blur back camera could not find focus. I thought that reset helps but id does not help. I need a new camera. Or a used one from an old phone but it's almost impossible to get i a reasonable price. A new one form Huawei cost more that the worth of the phone right now. And the others which fit er nor original. Any ideas? I thougt to buy an old broken phone and change the camera but it's also difficult to get such a phone. Sometimes when the phone is dropped again it takes fine pictures. Apart form rhat I have this phone since juni 2018 and it works greit. Even battery isn't so bad. Last one day sometimes more.My husband had more expensive samsung s7 since august 2017 and he had to replace a phone because it was lagging and he had to charge the battery a few times a day

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Diablo Waz Taken:
hey guys, this is my first post and I’ve got a question.

Just yesterday I found my old tablet from when I was 12 years old, a Samsung galaxy tab 2 7.0 (the 8GB WiFi version, to be precise). I was kinda excited to find it, but then all that excitement went after I booted the device for the first time in 10 years. (yep, there was a reason I stopped using it). Android 4.2 jellybean was half corrupt on that tab. It boots ok, but system ui crashes and reloads itself when I unlock the device, and opening the gallery app just restarts the device. I want to reflash android 4.2 on the device to fix all the problems (I want the original android 4.2 OEM image, not cyanogenmod or an unofficial image), and also I might want to create a backup rom in case I want some old pictures or apps from the corrupt jellybean) Can someone provide a step by step guide on how to

1. root the device

2. make a backup

3. reflash the image (also send a link to the original android 4.2 WIFI rom

some extra info

Model number: gt-p3113

Build number: P3113UEUCMK3

All help will be appreciated 😃😁

Update is the way you should take... Use SD card, the easiest way to update your old tab.. Google for the update file put it on SD card and start recovery, than take update option.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] supertruck97:
Been messing around with some of the more basic tweaks, and I have all of a sudden got a major issue. My File Explorer takes an extraordinary amount of time to load up the Windows directory. I mean, it sits there for a good 5 minutes before it loads up that directory. Once it is opened, I can navigate through my device and the other folders just fine, but the SECOND I try to get into the Windows directory it's just wait-city....

I did not tweak anything with File Explorer. Is there any way to fix this?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Orbitrix:
its my first PPC so maybe im missing something but... why would u ever really need to explore your Windows Folder that much on your phone? and ofcourse it takes a ton of time to load, it has tons of system files in there to enumerate

that is weird though, mine takes a while to load up, but certainly not 5 minutes

if you are installing programs into your Windows folder, and trying to access them through the File Explorer, then ur "doing it wrong" as they say on this here internets... most anytime i mess with my windows folder on my phone, im doing synced up with active sync on my PC
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] supertruck97:
There are actualyl plenty of reasons to be in the Windows Directory. And many of them have to do with tweaking and other enhancements to the device.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] mrvanx:
Just backup your stuff and do a hard reset, perhaps it is worth making a note of which stuff you changed should this happen again?

EDIT: Yes there are PENTY of reasons to be navigating into the \Windows folder on a PPC so its not a "doing it wrong" situation...however it is always wise to research the tweaks and changes you are carrying out should you end up in the situation where you cant boot the device....hence losing your data. ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] nuke1:
On my ELFin, I think this used to happen whenever I messed about with TF2D themes, since they contain hundreds of files.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 10332007:
Mine will load from my PC or on the phone in about 30 seconds (slightly longer from the phone itself)

5 minutes seems rather excessive just for the window's directory :o

As stated above try the reset on it to see about clearing up some memory.

Also when active sync came up on the phone did you accidentally select a different type of connection than active sync? I did once and everything ran super slow unless I was browsing through it as a thumb drive.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] starstreak:
On WM, windows throws EVERYTHING into that one directory, the more stuff you add, the more that directory gets filled. I know my tilt could take like a minute to load that one directory. At the moment the Fuze loads it in under 15 seconds.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] spaghetti_monster:
I use it to launch cabs and find files. Its my first PPC w/e its called. I had that happen before though it lagged soo much i reset my fuze and it fixed it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] m.carroll:
A lot of the time is how its sorted. Make sure its sorted by name, as this is how the files are normally indexed. If you select sort by Type, it has to sort it each and every time you try to browse to the Windows directory. Its nothing wrong with your Fuze, but rather Windows Mobile. We are so due for an update.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] dav3ywrx:
Hi Supertruck,

You could try using Total Commander instead of File Explorer, it's loads better by far.

Also, you can setup directory hotlists so if you need to take a look at \Windows\Rings or \Windows\StartUp for example you can navigate straight there and miss out the wait while the device enumerates the \Windows dir.

Cheers,

D.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] supertruck97:
m. carroll....that was it!!! I had it sorted by file type because I was doing the PTT changes and was copying .lnk files around and wanted them all together. It opens right up now that I have it sorted by Name.

Strange how something so small can make such a huge differece.

Thanks so much!!!
[Vivo X Fold] 白い熊:
I don't have the Vivo X Fold — am interested in getting it.

From what I've been reading there seems to be OEM unlock present in the settings…

Anyone rooted somehow? I haven't used a Vivo device yet — just Samsung, so with the restrictive Chinese approach assume there'd be no full firmware downloads, whereby Magisk patching tse boot would be easy. Or am I wrong?
[Vivo X Fold] AndroPlus:
I unlocked bootloader and rooted, I usee DSU Loader and dd command to extract boot.img from the device. (search it)

Note that the device must be before 2022-04-30 compile time to unlock bootloader, latest firmware blocks unlocking.
[Vivo X Fold] 白い熊:
Many thanks! :0)

Is there a way to buy such a device online? Do you know any seller who will check and guarantee this?
[Vivo X Fold] AndroPlus:
I don't know, you should ask seller to see if they can do it...
[Vivo X Fold] 白い熊:
I'm searching fro DSU loader info — never used it before — and reading up on it. Thanks for the pointer.

Just for more details if I may:

— dd boot partition — understood; Looking now for how to via DSU loader.

— Then you patch via Magisk Manager I assume, right?

— How do you then flash back to phone? DSU loader again? Or is that where it's “magic ” comes in, it creates a virtual partitIon somewhere, placed modified boot there and you boot off of it?

— If the above is the case, do you boot modified via some boot combo?

— If it isn't the case, could you briefly describe?

Many thanks. :O)
[Vivo X Fold] robsmith11:
> Note that the device must be before 2022-04-30 compile time to unlock bootloader, latest firmware blocks unlocking.

Does that mean after you unlock, you won't be able to install any Android updates or security patches (and remain unlocked)?
[Vivo X Fold] 白い熊:
That's usually the case…
[Vivo X Fold] robsmith11:
Even on phones that can be officially unlocked like Google Pixels?

That sucks. I only have experience using root with 3rd party roms, so didn't realize that.

Maybe it's easier to use DSU Sideloader app.

2. Once you prepared DSU, reboot from notification to boot into DSU's image

3. Connect USB cable

4. Run these commands in command prompt or powershell:

adb shell

su

dd if=/dev/block/by-name/boot of=/data/local/tmp/boot.img

chown shell.shell /data/local/tmp/boot.img

5. Exit adb shell and run this command to pull boot.img:

adb pull /data/local/tmp/boot.img

6. Patch boot.img with Magisk app

7. Reboot into bootloader and run:

fastboot flash boot magisk_patched_[random].img

No, you can get OTA update even after unlocking and remain unlocked.

First attempt will fail but then updater app downloads full zip automatically.
[Vivo X Fold] 白い熊:
Many thanks for the details.

I'm trying to find a pre-end-of-April device seller online now… :O)

BTW — is there a clean reflash or something option to rescue Vivo devices — if you brick it after root? Just factory reset from Recovery would do I guess.

Reason being — sometimes you're too eager to do somethIng and end up in a bootloop — happens to me from time to time - and I guess here the risk would be significant having to freeze all the China bloatware…

I would think there is Recovvery reset — but best to ask, I've never seen a Vivo device…
[Vivo X Fold] AndroPlus:
Yes, factory reset from recovery or flash correct partition from fastboot (in case you flashed wrong/corrupted image).

There's EDL mode too, but I don't know if it can be used.

[Vivo X Fold] 白い熊:
I'm communicating with some Chinese sellers on ebay - it's all shady in a regular way :O) - is the compile time printed somewhere on tthe box outside?

Or is there manufacture time there? And go by that? Could you tell me exactly where on the box - or, if possible, share a pic?

They're all saying - we can't break the seal and check, since then it's a used phone - logical. But also: don't worry it'll be OK - which usually means it won't… :O)
[Vivo X Fold] AndroPlus:
There's "生产日期" (Manufactured date) on the back of the box, and if it's 2022-04 it should have firmware with compile time before 2022-04-30.
[Vivo X Fold] KestL:
My phone's manufactured date is 2022-06-27, and compile time is 2022-04-21.

[Vivo X Fold] 白い熊:
Yeah - the problem is, there's no way to check compile time unless you go into Settings and for this you have to unseal the box — so they don't want to do this with an unused phone…
[Vivo X Fold] ferja5:
Hi guys, i read all you wrote and Im very interested in unlocking Vivo X note, but i have updated it (a few days ago), one thing i dont understand is what would possibly happen if i unllock the bootloader. Im very interested in doing it to flash any gsi and at least get wearOs working. Sorry, i know its not the phone, but i dont know where to ask :)
[Vivo X Fold] frcraig:
The X Note and the X Fold share the same underlying Origina OS Ocean operating system. Each has slightly different versions of the firmware, with the latter being 'tweaked' for use with the tablet style screen. With both phones the exploit that existed that allowed unlocking of the bootloader was patched by June's security update. If you have updated your X Note recently then you can't unlock your bootloader. There are currently no "downgrade" firmware packages available via the Vivo downgrade application. If Vivo makes these available then you could downgrade to May's firmware and use the exploit described in the X70 Pro forum to unlock and then you could flash with Magisk and do whatever you need to do. You can't at present.

[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Bennyboy371:
So I have had these strange issues with my v60 just in this last week. It's getting so frustrating that I'm tempted to factory reset.

If I have the quad DAC turned on, the mic on my headphones doesn't work anymore. Phone calls immediately start using the device mic instead.

Also, during a phone call I can't hit play on anything in a browser that has audio. YouTube plays for maybe a tenth of a second after I click on the unmute button and pauses, and I can't hit play. I've tested on other browsers and other sites and the results are the same. This seems to be only in web browsers, other apps seem to function fine.

Has anyone else seen these issues happen? Or perhaps a solution? I couldn't find anything online remotely describing this experience.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Royaltiger:
Try to re-flash the firmware using “partition mode” in LGUP.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Bennyboy371:
Okay so I'm trying to figure out what all that means, since I haven't played around with this sort of thing for a while. I am downloading the latest firmware from https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-lmv600tm-firmwares/ and I got LGUP from here https://xdaforums.com/t/lgup-1-16-3...er-w-lgmobile-drivers-and-common_dll.4304181/

I assume I can just plug in my phone and hit flash?

Edit: I guess it wasn't the right firmware. I don't have US Cellular. I'm very confused.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Royaltiger:
Which variation of V60 do you have? You could get the firmware for T-Mobile or Verizon if you have one of these. If you happen to have the AT&T version then the firmware is not available. It is because AT&T don't publicly release their firmware.

As for the process of flashing, it is pretty straight forward. Here is the link.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Bennyboy371:
I have the T-Mobile version but it gave a strange error the other day when I tried to use that last US Cellular firmware.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Royaltiger:
You can't use US Cellular firmware on T-Mobile V60. Please get the appropriate firmware for V60 T-Mobile only. They are flagged as TMO on the LG firmwares site that you linked earlier.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Bennyboy371:

Other than this, the hardware model is LM-V600TM

View attachment 5693807
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Royaltiger:
Excellent. Now may I ask you how did you upgrade to Android 12. Did you do it OTA (where the phone automatically downloads the available update and installs it) or was it something you did yourself by downloading the firmware and flashing it using LGUP? Please correct me if I am wrong but you have a T-Mobile V60 phone that is operating on T-Mobile network, right?
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Bennyboy371:
It was OTA, and I've been bouncing between MVNOs. I'm currently on Tello, which operates on the T-Mobile network.

I bought this one unlocked off of eBay from a US-based seller.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Royaltiger:
Okay. Here is the answer to your firmware problem:

Even though various MVNOs operate on major network operators platform, you can’t use the firmware of that network. So, for example, you choose Tracfone as your mobile company and they use Verizon network to provide you the service. Even though you are functionally using Verizon

backbone, you can’t use Verizon-released firmware. The Verizon firmware is for people who are Verizon customers directly not via MVNO.

The reason is MVNOs are allocated different operating bands by the carrier. So you must get the firmware that is released by your MVNO.

Since your phone is carrier unlocked, there is always the option to move directly to the network without using MVNO. Then you can use the firmware of that network.

There is no other option for you to flash a firmware unless Telio gives you one to download (which is extremely unlikely). I wish there was a better news for you.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Bennyboy371:
Oh jeez. I have hopped across multiple providers too, so I have no idea which MVNO pushed the update. Well, thanks. Maybe I'll factory reset and hope that some of my issues can get curbed that way.
