Wow....... :) a three colours-striped pouch.......... amazing......... not amazing, terrific!!

Take this advice: the provided pouch is a real crap........ if you insert the device by the USB plug side, probably at the next extraction the stylus will fall down because it will drag out due to the close of the pouch........ it's better to insert the PDA by the Power key side, but in this way the LED is unvisible....... Such a big mess................ So dont' use this pouch, buy a different new one...........
[Touch HD General] shortcut3d:
I actually like the pouch. Its definitely not useful for as useful for a guy, but it does protect. It's very similar to the pouch that came with the original Nokia N95-3 / not the nicer leather holster of the APAC N95-1. I think the two layer fabric is much nicer than the Nokia "bag". The pouch is useful for wiping the screen, and protecting the phone going through security checkpoints when it needs to be in a bin with other electronic stuff.
[Touch HD General] frustin:
thanks for the tip. i went for one. they got a 20% off code today as well.
[Touch HD General] TTDegs:
I find it quite useful!

I tend to insert it USB end first - and I've yet to have the stylus fall out, probably because it sits so flush to the side of the phone.

Sometimes I insert it power button first - so that the USB charger socket is available for my in-car charger.

It's dead handy in the car - means I can put the phone in the middle tray whilst charging it, and not worry about it moving around a bit.

Dead handy for my shirt pocket - the extra 'grip' of the outside of the pouch means I don't have to worry about the phone bouncing out and falling on the floor as I'm up and down the stairs / scrabbling under desks / putting paper in the printer or whatever.

True, it's not perfect, and I've got my eye on one of those flip style leather cases for Christmas, but I'm more than happy with it personally, and grateful HD put one in :)
[Touch HD General] rovex:
The thing is ive had expensive leather cases on phones before, they are usually a pain to open, make the phone bulky and often scratch the phone themselves. The cheap sock type cases are the best practically if not aesthetically.
[Touch HD General] mcano:
Pouch is pretty useless for HTC HD, however it may be used as penis warmer in winter.
[Touch HD General] Laurentius26:
Probably your brains are of same size as the thingy you want to use it for.

Maybe you can use it for them. :D

This one is not bulky at all the leather is thin and soft, also the pouch is just as soft inside as the original HTC pouch.

And how would you like to use the HTC pouch that comes with the device, also with the power key inside, any difference?

As I was telling before, the pouch suites perfect and the stylus won't fall out at all.

GUYS, I CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER OF THIS POUCH BECAUSE I THINK IT'S JUST THAT GOOD, END OF STORY !!!

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Kaymor:
Hello fellow poco lovers. I used Mint mobile in the US which uses T-mobile's towers. I'm able to makes calls and send/receive texts, but the mobile network sucks. The poco only has 1 wireless band to work in the US with mint so while I'm driving around delivering pizzas I lose internet a lot and sometimes very difficult to get reconnected. I've found a few temporary fixes but those temporary fixes have become more more less reliable.

I found this guide to add wireless bands to any phone with a Qualcomm chip on xda and it inspired me to root my phone. https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-add-all-gsm-and-lte-bands-to-your-phone.2886059/

After about 2 weeks of unlocking bootloader>flashing twrp>flashing magisk>flashing a custom rom>getting the right gapps> soft bricking my phone flashing gapps>reflashed custom rom from sd card>reflashed gapps from sd card>reflashed magisk from sd card>flashed kernel from SD card(yes all in that order)

So in that guide I posted above it mentions a hidden USB settings menu by dialing *#0808#. (I know the guide uses a code for a Samsung phone but Xiaomi's code is the same)

When I type this in the dialer I get a message saying "USSD code running..." then a message that says "connection problem or invalid MMI code"

I even downloaded 4 different hidden menu apps and found the USB settings but I get errors trying to load it as well.

I have LineageOS 19.1 and NGK.

I guess my question is, are the dial codes/hidden menu apps not working because I soft bricked my phone at one point, or am I missing something?

After finding as much info as I can, I guess phones lose access to dial codes and hidden menus when on custom roms and kernels. It looks like some phones have a solution but I couldn't find anything for Xiaomi/Poco f1.

I'm gonna try a few more things and will update this post when I get more info.

Thank you for your time :)

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TomPiXX:
Hey guys,

I'm trying Pocket PC Installation Creator to create a simple CAB that copies some files to the windows-folder.

Everything works fine but when I'm testing the setup, the CAB let me chose the destination of the files.

That's not what I want... the CAB should install directly to \windows\ without any dialog and reboot the device after installation.

Does somebody know how to do that with this tool?

Thanks for any hint!

[General Questions and Answers] DocMAX:
Hello,

i wonder if it's possible to clone everything from Android phone A to phone B with TWRP.

Meaning saving the (encrypted) data partition and the others on SD via TWRP, put that SD into another (identical) phone and restore.

Regards,

DocMAX
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Typicaly, if the two devices are identical, you can backup one and restore on the other, but, I'm not certain whether encrypted data would restore correctly.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
If Android on device A and device B is rooted then you can create a NANDroid backup of A and restore it to B utilizing Android's dd shell command.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sturges:
I've been using LineageOS on my phone for months without issues, until yesterday when I got an error message at boot: "Can't load Android system. Your data may be corrupt", etc. In the end I had to format and reinstall everything, but I'm worried that the internal flash memory could be getting defective or something.

Is there a way to check if there are "bad blocks" with the internal storage? (I mean physical issues, not the filesystem, like chkdsk or smart for hdds)

My phone is not rooted, so I've tried booting into recovery and launching adb shell, but I don't know how to proceed from there. Any help would be appreciated.

NEW METHOD FOUND, you can skip directly to the end of this post :)

###########################################################

OLD METHOD, the original one, here:

Hello friends, here is something I found to solve the lack of Google Play Services in modern Huawei devices. Credits go to the developer, not me, and to the original MicroG developers, I just want to share this solution to help people having the same issue.

MicroG is an open source software replacement for Google Play Services, and it requires root, Magisk, Xposed or in-built signature spoofing patch to work, but not this time.

I used this method as soon as I found it, since both of my parents got a Huawei P40 Lite E, and I couldn't use Googlefier because of the updated firmware.

No need of virtualized environments like GSpace, Gbox and other similar methods, now you can simply login into your Google Account without the need of installing other packages.

This solution is based on the YouTube Vanced-dedicated derivative of MicroG, called Vanced MicroG indeed, and it requires no root and no other packages to work.

Simply install this app, called GMSCoreHuawei (don't use the "unpatched" version, but the HUAWEI one), then Play Store apk from official sources like ApkMirror:

GitHub - jcchikikomori/GmsCoreHuawei: Attempt to support Free implementation of Play Services for HUAWEI devices

Attempt to support Free implementation of Play Services for HUAWEI devices - jcchikikomori/GmsCoreHuawei

github.com

Download Google Play Store APKs for Android - APKMirror

Download Google Play Store APKs for Android - APKMirror Free and safe Android APK downloads

www.apkmirror.com

Login in MicroG using the Huawei button, give the necessary MicroG permissions for notifications and you're done :)

I didn't test on other devices, but I think also other De-Googlefied ones or users with problems in installing MicroG using other methods can manage to use this solution.

I tested Play Store downloads and Google Maps and some apps like Gboard or Opera browser requiring GMS to work fine, and I got no problems so far.

[Android General] Darkisde:
The developer discontinued further work on this project because it did not allow access to personalized functional gapps. He abandoned this project in his github page. Yes some Google and Android apps work regardless of GMS authenticity like maps or Chrome. I can confirm that this method will not work in harmony os mate Xs2.
[Android General] cafemandala:
I couldn't get this work on my P40 5G.

I am able to login inside the microg app but asks login again in the playstore.

Can you please specify how did you manage to get it working and which particular version of the microG app did you use ?

I used Patched v0.2.22.212658 on Emui 12
[Android General] jacomail95:
Hi, my experience is on EMUI 10 and I used this apk:

https://github.com/jcchikikomori/GmsCoreHuawei/releases/download/v0.2.22.212658-HUAWEI/play-services-core-withMapbox-withNearby-release.apk

I logged in using the HUAWEI button, gave ALL the required permissions in MicroG settings and then Play Store apk downloaded from Apkmirror worked without issues, and so Maps and other Google apps.

There are some 3rd party apps still not recognizing it as a replacement of GMS, but I can manage that.

If the apk or other versions don't work for you, you can still try an older MicroG variant built from EloyGomez, here the source code:

Here the apk found on another XDA thread

31.13 MB file on MEGA

mega.nz

I also used that once, it works in the same way and successfully, I remember having discovered it casually in a YouTube video and also I've seen it in Android Hilfe forum (translate button necessary).

Alternatively, you can try this method using regular MicroG, but I don't know if it's still working and it's not tested by me:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Huawei/comments/i5fhkf

Let me know how it goes.
[Android General] cafemandala:
I assumed you might be on Emui 11 or 12 since the device is P40 lite. I know those MicroG forks and googlefier work on Emui 10 and I do not want to downgrade my firmware.

Recently there is new microG fork called 'lighthouse' which is currently only available for Huawei Malaysia region and support Emui 12.

Since I saw this I been looking around internet to see someone else has figured out a way for GMS services to work on newer Huawei devices.

The lighthouse app seems working like a native gms and people are loving it on their new mate50 devices.
[Android General] cafemandala:
I am afraid of the firmware downgrade for Emui 12 to 11 and then to 10 since it can cause some update issues and risk of device bricking.

If you have done the downgrade and seems it was easy work, would you mind sharing the methods you followed ?

Thank you so much in advance
[Android General] jacomail95:
The Huawei phone I worked with is a P40 Lite E, not P40 Lite, and Huawei didn't update it further than EMUI 10 but simply patched it so it no longer can use Googlefier, and i didn't downgrade the device to EMUI 9 (yet).

Anyway, I found some time ago on YouTube an older version of Huawei HiSuite still letting me use the downgrade/rollback option, as long as it is not updated.

Backup everything first, if you want to try, maybe that option is applicable for you also.

Let me know about it if you do it.

I'll attach the file here (unzip it once downloaded), because I can't remember the video, I found it some months ago and downloaded the file right away.

I'll edit or delete the post in case some moderator tells me it's not allowed.
[Android General] cafemandala:
Thank you so much for the quick response

I downloaded the exe and will try it after backing up everything

I will definitely keep you updated if that works for me.

@crcblz you can also try this, if you want, I'm pretty sure there's Private Space option also in Harmony OS (I would have used this guide, but the Lite E device doesn't support Private Space at all).

https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-add-g...identally-deleted-it-emui-12-0-0-276.4514581/
[Android General] jacomail95:
Just updating you, I found the time to make the final step and used HiSuite to make a backup of apps and files in my dad's P40 Lite E, and downgrade its firmware to EMUI 9. After that I installed the first OTA update of the phone to upgrade to an EMUI 10 version before the one Huawei applied the patch to, so I could use Googlefier without any issue.

The HiSuite version I posted here didn't let me install the downgraded firmware, so I let it update automatically to the official HiSuite 11.0.0.650_OVE version first and that worked just fine for the rollback (strangely enough, after that it didn't ask me to update to the latest V13.0.0.310 on the official HiSuite website, but it is better this way).

This short video also helped me in forcing Googlefier to work in the earliest steps.

Also make sure you follow Googlefier instructions exactly step by step, every detail of them is to be executed to the letter, every time you restart the device you have to open LZPlay first, without pressing any button of that app, and then you get back to Googlefier using the home button, so it can track the steps you do in installing GMS.

Edit:

After a few days I kept receiving Play Protect notification, so I tried using this official Google website to register my device, to no avail.

"https://www.google.com/android/uncertified/"

After registering the device I cleared Google Play Store, Google Play Services and Google Services Framework data, and in Notifications section of Google Play Services appeared a new setting, called Play Protect. I disabled it and I got no more annoying notifications about uncertified device.

Unfortunately, after some more days, every Google app I tried to use suddendly reported the "Device is not Play Protect Certified" screen, preventing me from using all of them.

So, sick of this situation, I completely uninstalled GMS except Google Account Manager (which contains the Google account I need on the phone) and I came back to MicroG, but at least the official version, since the account it's already on the device, and it's more updated than Huawei modded versions (their only advantage is that they add the ability to login successfully on Google on their own on Huawei devices).

And since I still don't know how to apply the signature spoofing patch on a completely stock, locked and unrooted device like Huawei is forced to be, and I don't trust the tons of modified Google Play Services apks on the web, I had to use PWAs for a couple of apps my parents needed, since they didn't recognize MicroG as the official GMS.

Play Store and Maps still work, but I had to replace Gmail and Google Calendar with open source alternatives, there are good replacements both on Play Store and on F-Droid (K-9 Mail, for example, has a pretty simple UI very similar to the Gmail one, and supports Google Accounts).

So, in the end I partially won the battle (and I got to the same point I was when I wrote OP) but not completely, since some apps force you to have official GMS or MicroG with signature spoofing patch enabled in order to be used, so alternatives or PWAs are needed.
[Android General] tiagomachado02:
Any updates on this? I would love an app that worked just for vasic stuff like gmaps or gmail
[Android General] jacomail95:
The MicroG I linked in OP works for Maps and Gmail, I can confirm, at least for EMUI 10. I don't have a Harmony OS device so I can't test on that.

[Android General] harm0ny:
Hey, I just passed through this thread.

I'm not a programmer, nor do I own a Huawei phone, but I can give some ideas to someone smarter than me.

Maybe one could do something similar to ReVanced. You see, ReVanced has it's own manager, to which you "upload" a sideloaded app, f.e. YouTube, and you can add patches to it. One of them is the addition of microG support. After you patch the app, a forked version of the app will install with different code name (original has com.google. ..., forked has app.revanced. ...). So, maybe someone smarter than me could do something like this, some sort of a manager which makes forked versions of G-apps with microG support. Of course, this wouldn't work with services which cannot properly function without GMS, like the Play Store, but for most G-apps, something like this could work, but that's just me spewing some ideas into the void...
[Android General] tiagomachado02:
Hey, i used the first link and playstore worked, but everything else said no account was on the phone. The mega linked didn't work... Where can i get other versions of that app?
[Android General] jacomail95:
Just updating with good news:

Now the latest regular MicroG release from F-Droid works too in signing in on Google Accounts, tested on the Huawei P40 Lite E I worked with.

As of my experience, you just have to use the Google Nexus 5X Android 8.1 registration method in MicroG settings, after granting the necessary permissions, and do NOT enable the Google Cloud Registration or SafetyNet until you completed the login.

Profit

EDIT: now there's also an official microg-HW apk dedicated to Huawei and Xiaomi devices specifically. It's available on GitHub, I assume it works better than the usual version, for those devices.

I found a pretty good solution to this.

U need two things:

1. Huawei-optimized microG

2. Aurora Store

So, you need to download microG from their website, but you need to scroll down on the Downloads page and download the -hw labeled gms and vending services - these are Huawei optimized.

Then you have a standard microG setup (log in, enable all permissions, restart your phone)

Then, download and open Aurora Store and download the Google app. You may be promped to log in - if so, do that. With the Google app, most notifications started to work for some reason and Google-dependent apps started to work (like the feed on some launchers). Even the Wallet app opened without error, but it still doesn't load because it lacks the proper permissions.

(And please don't sell the phone - I have the P60 Pro and it's truly an amazing phone despite the lack of GMS)
