[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TecM:
Hello, I got a Samsung Galaxy note 3 recently as a hand me down thing from my sis but the Crack on the phone is really irritating me when using the S pen as I just keep feeling the crack, here's a desc of the damage:

Crack on Bottom Left, screen protector exposed but looks a bit too thick in my opinion but could be it

Metal like sides on the bottom left gone leaving the inner covering seen not the components

Damage on other parts of the metal sides, dark Grey like but mostly OK

Deep damage on the what I think is the screen protector but possibly the screen as the bottom left metal sides are gone

Cracks are noticible to the eye and there's one with the shape of a thumb? (Watch out Saitama this is "one thumb guy")

I went into the box of the note seeing what's in it and I found a ton of random screen protectors but they don't look powerful

Should I:

A. Remove the current protector and replace it?

B. Put the screen protector on the screen protector (idek why I made this an option XD)

C. Let it be

Other info: Codename hlte, model SM-N9005.

[Realme 6 Questions & Answers] SupremeMoFo:
Hi all, got a very stupid problem here. Tried to remove pattern lock from a RMX2001, afterwards the phone locked up and had to be rebooted. Now it's still asking for a pattern unlock, but not accepting the original pattern. The pattern is correct as I have another phone with the same pattern.

Doesn't matter how many times you enter a pattern, there's no prompt to say you've tried too many times and are locked out.

Any way to fix this without wiping the phone?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidknot:
Hello,

I rooted my FireTV Stick 4k (mantis) some time ago with fireISO 1.0, kamakiri-mantis 1.2 (I believe) and it worked just fine until recently. Now it often crashes, is slow or I have to reboot several times before I can use it.

The firmware version is 6.2.6.8, Magisk 20.1, Magisk Manager 7.4.0, TWRP 3.3.1-0. So everything seems a bit outdated and I hope that an update will solve the problems mentioned.

I found several threads on different websites but they are either referring to other devices, software versions or starting situations.

Can someone please show me where I can find a comprehensive guide or tell me how to do the updates, where to find the latest firmware and software versions and what to consider in general (e.g. I never had to use TWRP after the rooting and now, when I cancel the rebooting on the stick and start TWRP it asks me if I want to leave the system partition read only or allow changes. No idea.)?

Thanks for your help!
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sus_i:
There are some threads, guides and youtube videos on how to install roms and how to interact with twrp...

but if you want to keep your device 'kamakiri vulnerable via shorting' then you want only install this prerooted rom to your stick:

https://xdaforums.com/t/fire-tv-stick-4k-mantis-prerooted-stock-images-6-2-8-1_r3.3983091/

Make sure that you flash July 17, 2021 - 6.2.8.1.r2 first, then 6.2.8.1 r3 if you like. Don't forget to disable the OTA updates.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidknot:
Thanks for the link. I've already found this thread but since I don't know what "NEVER FLASH A STOCK ROM >= 6.2.8.0 AFTER FLASHING 6.2.8.1_r2 OR LATER! THIS WILL BLOW AN EFUSE." means I was hoping that I can flash a stock rom instead of a pre-rooted so that I don't have to be careful about that blow efuse thingy.

Btw, what means keep your device "kamakiri vulnerable via shorting"?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sus_i:
You can flash stock roms, easiest is to enable updates and the OTA app will install the latest...

But netflix and prime video etc won't play stuff, until you flash an updated trustzone (TZ image) to your stick (which the 6281r2 prerooted does for you).

Together with this updated TZ image, every stock rom above 6.2.8.0 burns an efuse in the SOC, which will prevent/patch the kamakiri shorting method, i.e. unbricking via short is gone forever.

You may know how you did the unlock in the first place, open and short a special point...!?

PS: The prerooted was put together because the blow efuse thingy, i.e. efuse burning is disabled in the prerooted...
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidknot:
Thanks for the explainations, that makes it clearer. Isn't it possible to manually flash a specific firmware version (which doesn't patch the kamakiri shorting method) with TWRP? E.g. to download a stock rom zip file and then flash it with TWRP?

Yes, I know the shorting method but I didn't know that later firmware versions make this method impossible. The warning "NEVER FLASH A STOCK ROM >= 6.2.8.0 AFTER FLASHING 6.2.8.1_r2 OR LATER! THIS WILL BLOW AN EFUSE." made me believe that it is basically possible to (manually) flash a specific stock rom, e.g. 6.2.7.1.

After flashing the pre-rooted rom will it still be possible to OTA update to the latest version and bring the device back to stock mode?

If not, I would prefer to update Magisk, Magisk Manager and TWRP (if this can be updated separately) first and to check if this already solves the issues. If it's always possible to go back to stock mode, flashing the pre-rooted rom would maybe be the easier way.

Do I have to set up TWRP as read only or read write on system partition? I ask because some sources say this, other say that.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sus_i:
Ofc thats possible, but as I said DRM is broken because the new OS needs a new TZ

It's possible, but all new Stock will burn the efuse by default, if the new TZ is also there.

Easiest is if you just flash the prerooted 6281r2 (which updates the TZ so no DRM issues for you), then the 6281r3, done. Make sure that updates are disabled and thats it. Watch out if your issues are gone.

If you somehow/sometimes want the stick at a higher stock OS than 6281, @SweenWolf released a patch, which deletes the efuse burner for you... needs to be flashed just after the stock rom.

. . . .

. . . . (current version 1.0 FINAL)

More control. More battery. More comfort.

Lumos is fully customizable automatic backlight level changer developed as a complete replacement for stock HTC auto-backlight service. A wide range of HTC branded devices is supported starting from HTC Diamond/Touch Pro up to the current WM flagship HD2.

Lumos focuses on minimal CPU usage, maximum battery saving, low memory footprint while maintaining maximum backlight change smoothness and responsiveness. Lumos combines the best from all available auto-backlight solutions and adds many extras for your tweaking needs :)

Features:

- simple and clean installation and uninstalation

- extremely low CPU usage when working, 0.05-0.3% on polling

- NO battery and CPU overhead (drainage) unless you actively use your device's display

- low memory profile considering all the options

- simple and reliable configuration GUI with easy step-by-step calibration process

- many options that let you change every aspect of how your backlight works

- program exceptions to set different backlight for any application

- relative excaptions allow you to amplify/attenuate the automatic backlight for specific applications

- ability to force display ALWAYS ON for certain application

- integrated tool to detect all active application names, leave it running in the background and it will log all application names you use

- configuration failsafe. No matter what you do, Lumos won't crash, just tell you what is wrong and use defaults.

- supports vast majority of HTC branded devices since HTC Diamond

- many supported languages

Just install the CAB, start LumosWizard from programs or soft reset and you're all set!

- Lumos always installs to the device (no matter what you chose)

- Installer will create auto-start entry (Lumos will start after a soft-reset)

- Installer will create a shortcut to LumosWizard in your programs

- should any problem arise after first installation, try to soft-reset your device before consulting our FAQ below

Program installs to \Program Files\Lumos\

Lumos.exe = starts/stops auto backlight service, accepts commandline switches

LumosWizard.exe = graphical tool to configure all aspects of Lumos

settings.txt = configuration file is not included in the package, it will be automatically generated by LumosWizard after successful calibration, you can edit it manually in your PC or by using LumosWizard, text edits in device are probably no longer possible because of unicode encoding.

LumosStarter.exe = (re)starts Lumos service without any visual feedback (used for startup after soft-reset and for special issues)

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] DeepThought:
To admit it, I haven't installed it yet, but I'm tempted. Just one question which might also be of interest for others:

What's the advantage of your app compared with G-Light?

And not to forget:

Thank you for your work! I still find it amazing that many xda-devs are building programs for free just for a "thank you" by the community.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] nik3r:
Well I tried G-Light and LevelSight but will only compare it to G-Light as LevelSight does things a bit differently IMO. I set G light to 3s polling interval to make the comparsion accurate. I don't like to put dirt on someone elses app, G-Light is a fine piece of software and I encourage the developer to implement some of my ideas to match mine and make it even better :)

- G-Light can behave competely unpredictably, it pumps up the backlight when you're in shade (this is because of the luminosity spikes)

- Lumos eliminates any spikes by the 4-read interpolation keeping your backlight more comfortable and smooth

- Lumos uses a tolerance which further prevents the backlight to unexpectedly changing (and causing a CPU spike)

-G-light rarely reaches below 1% of CPU usage (1-7%usage is common) which can drain your battery as a side effect

- Lumos rarely crosses above 0.5% CPU usage on default settings (0.05-3% usage is common) (NOTE: this will even improve in future versions)

- in G-Light You cannot change how fast the luminance values are read from sensors, they are read on change = further battery drain. You can only change how often to set backlight

- In Lumos you can set sensor read interval and backlight change in its multiplies to save CPU and power while retaining smoothness.

- Memory usage: GLightRunner 595.43KB , Lumos 311.53KB (but this will get a bit more later)

- No noticable memory leak in either applicaiton

- G-Light has a frontend app to set up

- Lumos has none yet but you can change the configuration file

- Neither Lumos nor GLightRunner can be completely shut down without using task manager (Lumos will once it has frontend GUI).

- G-Light can exclude applications

- Lumos can't yet

-G-Light settings is pretty much still limited compared to Lumos

To sum up it's definitely worth trying :D

Thank you for your long and precise answer, You definitely convinced me!

I'll try it right away! :)

Lumos v02

Lumos Version 02 has been released, all the changes are logged as (!) in the bug tracker above.

Default settings response time is shorten to 2s, while CPU usage is pretty much the same as v01 with 3s refresh.

Memory usage: 339.53KB

CPU usage: 0.05-0.25% on scan, 3.15% on backlight change

Power consumption is 2mA better than v01

If you want to achieve more sensitivity of backlight transition without CPU overhead, set tolerance to 0 (CPU usage bug is fixed now).

Configuration file is now idiot-proof, program will tell you what is wrong on syntax/logical error :)

EDIT: 02b contains one more bugfix, the auto backlight range cap finally works 100%

Enjoy :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] patrickrivard:
nik3r

Quick question; does you app let the backlight go to 0% in full darkness, like LevelSight?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] nik3r:
Yes it in fact goes to 1 (backlight disable) as lowest on default. You may want to increase it to 2 in the config file if it's too dark for you. :)

The point of this app is YOU set how it should behave, there are virtually no limitations unless you enter a complete nonsense to the config. And even then the program should just notify you about the incorrect settings and not crash, so don't worry and edit! :)

The program needs to be restarted in order to apply new settings. Either kill it via process/task manager or soft reset if you don't have one. Note that this acts like a program, it won't start again automatically if you kill it or soft reset. And also it won't store anything in your registry or enywhere else on the device, so it's perfectly safe to "just try". I will make a manager app later that will let you setup and control this underlying process.

But FIRST we need to make sure the service is bug free and does everything we need before I even start building the front-end app ;)

Also you may share your custom settings you find best with me and if it's performing well I can select that one as default for future.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] DeepThought:
Thank you Niker! V2 is working great for me. Only one thing:

The lightlevel changes linear as you've explained and that's basically working fine (and much more smoothly than G-Light for example). But it tends to get to dark. I've now changed the minimum setting to "3" to get the average backlight-level I prefer. BUT: I like to read late at night in bed and it would than be nice to have the backlight at level "1". So would it be possible to exclude light level 1 & 2 from the linear alignment and to only use those levels if it's "really dark"? ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] DeepThought:
PS

Just to give you a bit more information about my personal preferences and what I want to achieve:

I actually like the default HTC auto-backlight. It more tends to bright than to dark backlight and it's making the level changes very smoothly so you almost don't notice them.

The only thing i don't like about it is that the minimum level is hardcoded to level 3 which is too bright for me when I read in bed with no additional light in the room.

Of course those are my

personal preferences

and that of course doesn't necessarily mean that your app is meant to handle that way! ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] nik3r:
Well I have an idea, I wonder if .NET CF 3.5 supports external scripting as the PC version does. Basically that might allow you to replace the backlight algoritm without compiling the program yourself. You could quite easily make exceptions binded to really low lumen values or time of day with just 2-3 lines of code.

EDIT: I fear this is not possible, System.CodeDom.Compiler is awfully stripped down, I would have to make up my own scripting language for this to work and that would be very difficult.

But I think I can add this as a setting to the configuration file.

DIM_TO_MINIMUM_BELOW = 0

- disabled (default)

DIM_TO_MINIMUM_BELOW = 25

- below 25/750 lumens

very simple and I think this would do about what you want :)

Expect this in the new version.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] DeepThought:
Thank you mate, I really appreciate it!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] nik3r:
Thanks for your suggestions.

Lumos v02c is out, it contains your 2 desired options (for backlight 1 and 2 separately). You will however be disappointed by the sensitivity of raphael sensor, it reports 0 like all the time.

This change theoretically lets you set lumen values for the 2 lowest values manually and once the sensor reads larger values, the MIN/MAX_BACKLIGHT kicks in. It's possible to have 4-8 auto and dim to 1 or 2 on low light, so you can kinda simulate the behaviour of LevelSight if you want to.

Oh and as the cherry on top I disabled tolerance by default, for more smoothness, the impact on CPU and battery should be minimal < 0.05%

The next version should include a tool to easily restart Lumos to apply settings, it will be needed for the graphical user interface later.

Enjoy
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] nik3r:
Major version released:

Lumos v03

- all bugs connected with dynamic backlight should be fixed now

- changing settings.txt is even safer (program should never crash, just tell you where is problem and use defaults)

- includes LumosKiller.exe that can start/restart/shutdown Lumos easily

In case no bugs are found until friday, I will start building GUI. :)

Could you integrate special brightness normally only used when starting the camera? You'd probably need to debug the camera application to find out about the special ICOTLs for that. I did that with my Magician back in the days.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] nik3r:
Program-specific exceptions will be added after the GUI is done, I still need to figure out how to list running windows by name.

Great application Nik3r!!

i like so much, because don´t touch my registry, It´s light,and also have minimal resources consumption

But, i need your help with the configuration file,

i have htc diamond, and the battery of this device drain fast

how can set the settings to obtain best battery duration?

Thanks a lot!!:)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] nik3r:
You can increase the polling interval, enable some tolerance and lower the maximum brightness.

Try to make these changes:

MIN_BACKLIGHT = 1

MAX_BACKLIGHT = 6

POLLING_INTERVAL = 1500

EXTRA_POLLS_BEFORE_SET = 1

BACKLIGHT_TOLERANCE = 1

set minimum backlight to whatever is reasonably visible in shade

.. this will set your polling interval to 1,5s and make your brightness change every 3s instead of 2. The tolerance prevents brightness changess less than 2 units. It's the brightness change that eats most CPU (up to 3% spike) and thus battery and the tolerance makes sure it's not changing until a larger change is required.

And make sure you killed the old v01/02x version or soft reset before using 03 because older versions can't be killed by LumosKiller and two of them running may ruin your battery.

... hmm by the way I wonder why I didn't call it "Nox" instead of LumosKiller (any similarity with HP books is completely unintentional :D)

Good luck :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Magus:
Thanks for your quick and detailed reply!! i did those changes you suggest,

I´m really fan of your app!!:D
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] nik3r:
Interesting, what did you achieve by setting the minimum to 10? In theory this should only cause the minimum backlight to fire even in very low (but positive) light conditions and actually decreasing the sensitivity. I think it's better to use full minimum range (0) and employ one of the dim_below options instead to get more control.

Good thing is that decreasing the polling interval like you did shouldn't noticeably affect your battery since v07, because there's no polling when it's not needed (dimmed display, on standby) :)

I just flashed PDAVIET v13, going to bed to setup stuff, see y'all tomorrow :p
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] tyguy:
With the min set to 10 I even get slightly raised backlight levels in the office and "diffuse" light conditions (for example when you "shade" the light sensor with your body on front of a ceiling lamp).

Never played with the 0 and dim_below feature. You think I could be even happier? How would you set the dim_below if min is set to 0?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] nik3r:
Well, having it set to 10 actually means it will fade to lowest settings earlier ;)

You may want to try setting it to 0, min_backlight to something like 3 and force bl=0 or 1 set to 1. That will maintain backlight above 3 when there's at least some light but fall to minimum when the sensor reads 0 (<1).

Just experiment with it ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] tyguy:
Actually I played a little bit with these settings and it worked out well.
