[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] L@u28:
Eventually it worked!! after successfully relocking the bootloader my phone was completely dead and only vibrated shortly after pressing the power-button and that was it. But since Flashtool reported that the relocking-procedure was successfully fullfilled, i then carried on with Xperia Companion but this time on my Macbook Air (because of the error i got on Windows, see screenshot).

Finally i managed to let it install the original sofware and this time it completely reanimated my phone again, and even my display returned back to normal again!!

So now i can finally begin all over with installing the latest Lineage version onto the phone, thanks to you!!

Ps: before i forget: i found eventually a Flashtool website which has the version you got (0.9.30) so i downloaded that and used it in the process!!

So i can't express enough how much i appreciate your help and can't thank you enough for all of this!!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] xda_user749:
Glad you could make it!

This is the standard procedure when things go wrong with custom flashing with any xperia device that becomes completely unresponsive.

Two things:

- version 0.9.30 is what I'm currently using. Most likely the newer versions are working as well.

- To unlock your bootloader again, you only have to press the BLU button in Flash Tool and then UNLOCK.

Hello,i'm currently havinng issue.

Basically the oem lock is on and I cant access the Ui because It will have this message:Security Error:this phone.... and the bright red word:Only official released binaries are allowed to be boot.

Any help will be appreciated
[General Accessories] Tim Butler:
Hello,

I have just bought a Jabra BT530 bluetooth headset and a BlueNext BN-905GR bluetooth GPS receiver. I'm having trouble getting them to work simultaneously with my TyTN running WM6. If I first connect my Jabra then neither tomtom nor Pocket nav can receive data from the GPS - Pocket nav says "GPS: Can't open COM port". If I switch off the Jabra then tomtom picks up the GPS in about 6 seconds. The Jabra will then not connect until tomtom is switched off... then if tomtom is restarted GPS no longer works. I have tried the available COM0, COM2, COM5 and COM9 for the GPS serial ports (with receive incoming beams switched off). I did actually manage to get both devices working simultaneously for a short while by uninstalling them both, resetting the PDA, installing the Jabra then installing the GPS on COM9. However when I switched them both back off and on again I was back with the original conflict. I'm using:

ROM Version:	3.30.3.3

ROM Date:	05/15/07

Radio Version:	1.38.00.01

Protocol version:	32.71.7020.12H

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Tim
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] cmstlist:
I discontinued using my X Compact in mid-2020 when I got a new Pixel 4a. It's been sitting in a drawer since. It was rooted but working fine.

Recently I pulled it out to try charging it up to use as a spare. What I found was, upon plugging it in to charge, I'd get the "Your devices has been unlocked and can't be trusted" splash screen, then after the 5 seconds it would vibrate and bootloop back into the same screen, etc. I tried booting into recovery with power button / volume down and got only a blank screen. I booted it into fastboot with power button / volume up and left it to charge in that state.

Today I got all the drivers set up on my laptop and was able to access fastboot. I tried installing two different versions of TWRP for kugo (twrp-3.3.1-0-kugo and twrp-3.6.2_9-0-kugo). In both cases, subsequently attempting to boot into recovery, I got the SONY screen followed by the TWRP splash screen and then... hang.

Certainly seems like something got corrupted in there. Should I just call it a brick and leave it alone, or are there any further bright ideas on what to try?
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Is the battery good? It may not be able to sink enough current otherwise.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] cmstlist:
Hard to judge in this state, but if I immediately plug it into charge after launching recovery mode, it still hangs.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] funkoot:
Had a similar problem. In the end I flashed an older version of TWRP and recovery worked.

Dave
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Replace the battery. Go from there.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] TechX1991:
Its either battery is just shot, they don't like just sitting around not charging, or there's an issue with the soc/storage chips on board, which would be surprising

[WebOS Software and Hacking General] General Plot:
Hi. I have an LG OLED TV that I originally bought while living in the UK. Specifically, it’s model OLED65B8SLC. When I relocated back to the US, I shipped the TV home as well. I’ve since picked up a service remote and changed my original country code of 3123 (UK) to 1792 (US). Oddly, while everything else seemed to update just fine, it still shows HW settings are EU, despite the location in the menu as now showing as the US. Also, the continent index is 0, when I know it should be 10. This leads to no broadcast country being shown in the location menu. I’ve tried every US country code from 1792 to 1919, and none of them seem to change this. Are there any other possible US country codes anyone might know of worth trying? I’ve attached photos of my current location menu, along with how it looked before. Thanks.

Hello! Has anyone ordered Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro headphones from overseas stores? I ordered from fruugo, but noise cancelling did not work for them and I asked the trader for the money back. He did not accept the return, but asked me for the transport money and sent me another package. The people from Samsung Romania told me that after SN, headphones appear from Vietnam and it is possible that noise cancellation will not work because of this. I didn't open them to prove them because I wanted to send them to someone as a gift, so as sealed. What do you advise me to do? Is there any chance to check if they are good without removing them from their seal? Or, the better question is: how to check which version of headset do I have? Will it be ok with the EU standards for noise cancelling?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Electronic Punk:
is there a barcode with a product id on it? (mine are SM-R190)

I mean, they are ALL maybe made in Vietnam

Noise cancelling will only work if both headphones are in.

Also, there is not battery level indicator.

Also, there reset function doesn't work, it always days it needs to be at least 15 charged which it is (both phone and earbuds).

Are they really fake?

I have also received another box from the merchant with the same product, having THE SAME serial number. It that ok?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] GeeAyeZee:
I ended up buying mine from Samsung after that happened and the quality was ten times better. You'd be surprised how many fakes are out there. Try and register the serial number on the Samsung website to check.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] gmike15:
Hi all,

I've tried to search but no luck specifically to my region

I bought a SM-N976B from a friend and i couldn't use Samsung pay.

I brought it to the Samsung store and they said i have a different region.

I ended up searching if it is possible to change the region by flashing, I've got mixed results and I downloaded Frija and couldn't search the firmware i want to use...

I'm currently using this model SM-N976B and would like to change the firmware region to HONG KONG so that i could use the "Samsung pay x Octopus".

Could anyone please help me point me in the right direction?

Kind regards

Mike
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Droidriven:
There is no Hong Kong firmware for your device, if there is no Hong Kong firmware to flash, you can't change the region to Hong Kong.

If you can find a Hong Kong firmware for another model number of Note 10+ 5G that has the same hardware specs as your model number, you might be able to flash that firmware on your device or at least parts of that firmware, such as the modem.img and the system.img. This isn't guaranteed to work, it could brick the device if the bootloader or modem from the other device doesn't get along with your device.

On the Website of xiaomi i cant figure it out.

What does it support:

Xiaomis 67 Watt - sure it does with the charger int he box :)

USB-PD? (if jex, how many watt)

QualComm QuickCharge? (if yes, which: 2, 3,4, 5 ...)

thx

I have received an answer from Xiaomi.

Here is it:

Xiaomi 12 uses a single cell design, with a 4500-mAh-Lithium-Ion battery and the max charging power is 67 W.

It supports PPS/QC2 .0/QC3.0/PD2.0/PD3.0 and other general fast charging protocols.

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] shank1524:
Hi,

so I've recently entered in the world of roms for OP6 and I've tried few of them, and there are some which I like for their appearance, some for performance and some for the battery, but here's the scenario:

there is rom A which I like for its appearance and then there's rom B which I like for its stability and the battery longevity

So as far as I understand and please help me if I'm wrong here, the kernel is supposed to handle this right? how the battery performs and stuff?

Coming back to the question, considering the roms are for the same model and based on the same android version (please add if any thing else is to be considered), can I use the kernel of rom B on rom A? and also considering that the rom B's description page has provided the GitHub link for their kernel.

This is what I've understood and think will help me achieve what I want which is rom B's battery longevity in rom A, is there any other way to achieve this or anything else on this?

I've presented a general scenario but the roms on which I want to try this is Syberia rom with havoc/awaken kernel.

Thanks.

[Sony Xperia 5 III] MystikMan97130:
I have the 8 Flip (same spec with the 8 and same OS) and the 5 III.

The ZenFone 8 have best a more powerful grip of the cellular network.

Sony better audio quality and screen quality.

Both have os experience like android stock with minor options like dynamic vibration for Xperia 5 III and native call record for the Fone 8.

Warranty void depending on your country. For me in France no warranty void with unlocked bootloader.

Good to know. Telecoms in my country don't support anything besides Samsung and Apple, so poor cell support is a given anyways XD

the ro.build.fytmanufacturer was 51.

no idea how that makes sense since it's a navifly/mekede system but it works.
[FYT Android Head Units] surfer63:
That is indeed strange. Your firmware photos already show "HYI" which is indeed the reseller (plus a couple of other resellers) who have the id=51 firmware. Mekede/NaviFly is either 1 or 116.
[FYT Android Head Units] mega0deth:
so running the script to change the fytmanufacturer did work but for some reason the developer password has changed, is it possible the script changed the developer password on the unit?
[FYT Android Head Units] surfer63:
No, the script doesn't change anything in that regard. I did not even know that but I assume the 1900xxx.com.syu.apk checks the FYT id and based on that probably uses different password. As you don't mention the old password (please be complete), did you check QA #2?

And if your old password was different, then please mention it so I can add it.

The original password was 3368. This is a weird situation 🤔

Hi

I am evaluating SM-S908E_12_Opensource provided by Samsung opensource site

The parameters in the build.sh provided by the opensource configure the vendor_dlkm.img to EXT4.

However, the original firmware's vendor_dlkm.img is F2FS

Could someone advise what are the modifications need to be made in the build.sh to configure the vendor_dlkm to F2FS

The following is code snipplet of build.sh:

:

local vendor_dlkm_props_file

if [ -z "${VENDOR_DLKM_PROPS}" ]; then

vendor_dlkm_props_file="$(mktemp)"

echo -e "vendor_dlkm_fs_type=ext4\n" >> ${vendor_dlkm_props_file}

echo -e "ext_mkuserimg=mkuserimg_mke2fs\n" >> ${vendor_dlkm_props_file}

echo -e "ext4_share_dup_blocks=true\n" >> ${vendor_dlkm_props_file}

else

vendor_dlkm_props_file="${VENDOR_DLKM_PROPS}"

if [[ -f "${ROOT_DIR}/${vendor_dlkm_props_file}" ]]; then

elif [[ "${vendor_dlkm_props_file}" != /* ]]; then

echo "VENDOR_DLKM_PROPS must be an absolute path or relative to ${ROOT_DIR}: ${vendor_dlkm_props_file}"

exit 1

[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] SnowJim:
Hi,

I got a Samsung Tab S2 9.7 today that I had since 2016, it is still working but it is a bit slow, and the battery drains faster.

It is mainly used for chrome, comics, Netflix, Kodi and some other streaming services. I really like the 4:3 aspect but there is no longer any Android device that offers this.

Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 is nicely priced but according to "internet" it seems to have a lot of problems with streaming services, many reports claiming it to stream to low bitrate and HDR material is a problem. Many of the problems seems to have been there for a while without fix. In some cases, there might be solutions, but it is not often not a straight forward fix.

So, is this tablet still a good choice for me or is there something else I should look at?

Regards
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] maxtouf:
I think you should choose another tablet
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] Paddy1401:
It's good on paper. Until you use it and have to live with ****ty software. I have this device as a gift so I can't complain much. But if I was the one to pay, this will be my biggest regret.

[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] TheMrN1ko1:
For me, the tablet fulfills everything I need. In some scenes it's really too dark, but I can cope with this. and there are hardly any tablets here except from the big brands like Apple or Samsung. Since I'm personally not a fan of OneUI and Apple simply gives me a too closed system with IOS. Other things are "toys". other variant would be only import of devices.

also there is no custom ROMs except GSIs for this tablet. Before I bought this I foolishly assumed the moddind-scene here would be lish and thriving. But instead its more like a desert here..

[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] Pinage:
Yes I noticed the lagging root options too! Actually it's not just xiaomi, other brand tablets don't have much custom Rom option too. I'm actually keen to get affordable tablet with stylus support. Was considering this or lenovo xiaoxin brand.
[Xiaomi Mi Pad 5] UmiCat:
If you can stand MIUI, then Pad 5 would be an excellent choice. If you can't, the choice would be to install a GSI without the Xiaomi pen functionality. I have Pad 5 Pro 5G, but I also ended up with buying Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 (5G) because I wanted to use a pen. Samsung OneUI isn't perfect but much more torelable. S Pen is fantastic! But if you live in the US or Canada I think you can't unlock the bootloader of Samsung devices (with 4G/5G).
