[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] BerettaFreak:
I just bought my Tilt too, it also came with 3.56 and WM6.1 but I had NO problems unlocking and flashing hard SPL to it.

Now, what happens when you run Jump 1.93? and are you running it directly from your main memory NOT from a SD card, and no SD card is in the phone?

If you follow the directions EXACTLY it will work.

1 Run Jump SPL from your main memory

2 tri color boot screen saying jump 1.93 should show up, with USB at the bottom

3 Unplug your device wait 30 sec and plug it back in

4 In Active sync on your PC disable USB connections (I've actually flashed spl's without doing this)

5 Now run the customRUU with the hard spl file you want to upload.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Vol22002:
Yes I did all that I'm very familar with the process this is my 5th tilt 2 of them the CID Unlock run just fine and the other 2 I that to run jump 1.56 to get pass the white screen. But for some reason I cant get anything to work on this tilt. I even try to install the OG WM6.0 to try to downgrade the spl but that did work either. Do you have any other suggestions?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] BerettaFreak:
IIRC for me to run the CID unlocker program I needed to flash the SPL first.

What is happening when you are trying to run the Jump SPL files? It's just not making sense.

You need to flash Hard SPL 3.29 BEFORE you try to run the unlocker, you can't do 3.56 then try to unlock it. Once its unlocked then flash it with hard 3.56 if you so desire.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] BerettaFreak:
Also after doing the 3.29 spl you need the proper cracked radio flashed to allow you to unlock the device, are you skipping that step?

It sounds like your trying to do an SPL upgrade and NOT SIM unlock the device since that step comes after.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Vol22002:
No what I'm trying to do is CID Unlock my phone but is not working I get the white screen. I have tried everything I know to get pass it. I'm not trying to install hard spl 3.29 or 3.56. I have to CID Unlock my phone first right? That is what I've always done before. I'm out of ideas.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] BerettaFreak:
What is on your phone right now?

Factory SPL?

Factory 6.1 rom?

If so you need to run Oli's Sim Unlocker and CID Unlocker exe, this will FIRST flash a 3.29 hard SPL to your phone, THEN then next step is to flash a cracked radio and then you can sim and CID unlock your phone. As noted before tho a CID unlock is NOT necessary, if your Sim unlocked and Hard SPL'd you can do whatever you want to the phone.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Vol22002:
Thank you very much for all your help BerettaFreak you are the man!:cool:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Crogon:
Heeey! Did my thread get hijacked?

Lol, Ok where to start..

skr_xd:

If you DON'T need to CID unlock, then the Newb instructions are a bit confusing. Why does it say to install HardSPL, then CID unlock?

What or why would I need to CID unlock separately? ..or is it the Security unlock bit, Or SuperCID that I'm still missing? There must be some point to it, Because Oli's Does HardSPL then SIM unlock, THEN CID unlock.

Vol22002:

I DID get HardSPL 3.56 installed. I used JumpSPL 1.56. DO remember to yank out the SD and SIM card. Note the very bottom of my post says those stats listed are BEFORE I installed HardSPL. ;)

I still need some more help with finding a ROM, but I suppose that would be best addressed in a new thread, so I'll do that. :)

Thanks again!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] DaveShaw:
CID Unlocking is done by installing the Hard SPL, the Hard SPL's don't check the Carrier ID (CID) when flashing new ROM's.

SuperCID Set's your CID to 11111111, Security unlock removes an extra check when Flashing Radios to avoid you getting stuck on some radios.

Just follow all the steps in the Guide by mskip and post and problems you have there. Understanding is not a pre-requisite, with that guide, you can figure out what all the steps do later...;)

Simply put:

HardSPL / CID Unlock / Super CID - Allows ROM's and Radio's to be flashed.

SIM Unlock - Allows you to use a foriegn SIM card

Security Unlock - Avoids problems when flashing some Radios.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Crogon:
Hey, thanks for the fast reply Dave!

Ok, So I COULD still Security unlock it, If I could find a security unlocker that worked with 3.56.

The bit about problems flashing radios sounds a bit like something that happens right before your phone becomes a brick. ;) Could you point me to a resource about problem radios or how to avoid them?

I actually prefer to leave the radio alone, if I can get away with it. I just want a patched up ROM, as I mentioned earlier and in my new thread.

Anyway, If I end up needing to replace my radio, how do I avoid 'problem ones'. I understand that some radios simply don't work with some ROMs, but you seem to be eluding to something different here.

Thanks again!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] DaveShaw:
To Security Unlock, just follow this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=361236

Then upgrade to HardSPL 3.56 again.

Security Unlocking is done by setting a flag in the NAND. It's permanent (unless you re-lock) and there are no comptability problems once it is set (you need to use a special Hard SPL to set it first though).

EDIT:

There is no list of known bad radio's - only the "Radio from Hell" 1.65.17.10 - but another Radio from hell could appear any day :)

Dave
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Crogon:
Thanks for clearing that up Dave.

I think I'm going to opt to ignore the security unlock, since it sounds like it's on an 'as needed' basis.

I have 'batter fish to fry' at the moment. I'm grinding gears trying to figure out HOW to figure out which ROMs I should be looking into, in my other thread.

By the by guys, I was joking about the 'hijacked thread' thing, I'm sure somebody will find the info useful. :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] asofiker:
Just when i though I had this all figured out and was about to Flash my first ROM.

I have read and re-read the flashing wikis and am still confused.

If your on WM6 then you need to use Jockyw2001's Kaiser SuperCID and Security Unlocker v0.1 right? But if you are on WM6.1 then you use Olipro's Kaiser SIM/CID Unlocker & Changer right?

Well I am currently on WM6 pro and dont want to upgrade to 6.1 just to use Olipro's program. So I would go with Jocky's right. Then people say you need to flash a HardSPL first before doing the SuperCID and Security Unlocker. But then in Jocky's directions it says Note that the security unlocker does not work with "SPL-3.28.Hard" and "SPL-3.29.Hard".

So what SPL do you start with.

And I know Dave already told me this earlier that since I have an AT&T Tilt and I am with AT&T service then I dont have to worry about SIM unlocking obviously. So can I skip the whole CID/SUPER CID/SECURITY UNLOCK routine. Can I just Flash HardSPL 3.29 or 3.56 and then start playing with ROMS till my hearts content or is all the security stuff really that neccessary?

So I am lost once again. Wow. I dont know why I am not getting this.:confused:

P.S. On another note, I am using AT&T Tilt with shipped ROM running WM6 pro. I have about 40-50 programs installed on it. When first setting up my phone I did the soft reset which supposedly gets rid of the bloatware. Anyways, with all my programs and it being the stock ROM I still have 62MB free PROGRAM RAM. I do however only have like 30MB Storage RAM. But 62MB of free PROGRAM RAM. I see people with naked ROMS that only get like 55MB of free PROGRAM RAM, is my phone like magic or something? Just curious as to how this may be possible.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] DaveShaw:
There is a Hard SPL 1 by pof. Flash that first then follow Jocky's instructions.

Also the OliPro Security unlock isn't permenant, next time you flash a Radio it's gone.

Ta

Dave
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] asofiker:
Ok so Flash the Hard SPL 1 by pof

Then follow Jockys directions in using his Kaiser SuperCID and Security Unlocker v0.1

Then Flash either HardSPL 3.29 or 3.56. WHichever I choose?

Then go crazy with playing with different ROMS.

P.S. So every time you Flash a HardSPL it overwrites the previous one? Or do you have to get rid of a HardSPL first before putting a new one on?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] DaveShaw:
Flashing a new SPL overrides the old one.

You said before you were happy with WM6.0, if so use either the pof Hard SPL v1 or the jockyw Hard SPL v1.1 (Part of the security unlock); if you are using WM6.1, use one of the jockyw or cmonex Hard SPL 3.**. Using the wrong version won't break your phone, but Windows will randomly freeze.

Ta

Dave
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] asofiker:
Thanks again Dave for helpin me out and not tearing me a new one. But just one last question.

If I find a new ROM that I want to Flash and it uses WM6.1 then I have to make sure that I flash a HardSPL 3.xx before flashing that new ROM, is that what ur saying?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] DaveShaw:
Yeah pretty much,

A while ago we found that folks running WM6.1 with Hard SPL v1 (or v1.1) would have random freezes in WM. So jocky (and cmonex later) made more Hard SPL's based on the newer OEM SPL's that carriers were shipping with WM6.1

A phone bought in Poland without a simlock, after arriving in the USA and inserting a local sim card, it asks for a code (not a PIN code). What's the problem ?

For PUK code, you can call the operator from another phone and identify yourself first, after you are done identifying yourself, you should then tell them about the issue you are facing and your mobile number for which you need the PUK code.

Hi there !

I have the Pixel 7 and i'm very happy with it.

I've noticed something weird yesterday :

When my phone is beneath full sun and when looking at a white front page, i see 3 sorts of shadows. 2 on the top right and 1 little in the middle. I see them only in full sun condition.

I wonder if it's a screen bug or if it's a material shadow under the screen (camera material reflexion ?...)

Thanx for your help.

this pic is not mine, but it's just to show you the shadows location

[Google Pixel 7] bobbyphoenix:
It's the proximity sensor under the camera, and other sensors. We all have them. It's normal.
[Google Pixel 7] 3vilo:
Thanx for your help ! Glad to read that. But its true that once i see those shadows, i always see them ! :(
[Google Pixel 7] zapper81:
This is how it looks on my Pixel 7 which was delivered today (i had to exchange it due to some defect and didn't recognized it before with the previous device).

I was really shocked as i have seen that. That's where i started searching the web for this.

But is that really state of the art quality of such display panels? I just wonder if really each Pixel 7 has this.

It seems the display panel of the Pixel 6 at least does not have this big shadow which looks like a big battery symbol on the top right corner. This big shadow annoys me the most.
[Google Pixel 7] [-silver-]:
Hello,

I'm an enthusiastic new Pixel 7 user.

So far there are two Roms that can be installed via the respective website.

GrapheneOS and CalyxOS.

Does anyone have any information on when the first custom roms will appear?

LineageOS is already building, as I have noticed.
[Google Pixel 7] xylox:
grapheneOS is available and it's better than CalyxOS.

You can create a work profile to install sandboxed Google Play Services separate from your main profile. 99% of the apps will work fine (like banking apps).
[Google Pixel 7] dmbardal:
There are a few custom roms out, but they are extremely "fragile".

Will probably pop up here in a few weeks.

## Corvus-OS vT5.1 | DejaVu | Changelogs for Pixel 7/7 Pro Cheetah

- November security patch

- Fingerpint works for cheetah on 1080/1440

- Stock Google face unlock

- Development options doesn't FC

- Minor fixes and improvements

- Initial official builds

Installation:

Be on November firmware

reboot to recovery (when you get to the "no command" screen, briefly hold power, tap vol up to enter stock pixel recovery)

wipe data/factory reset

reboot to bootloader

fastboot update rom.zip

Bugs:

On initial boot only- the setup wizard/boot animation. As the rom boots up for the first time, the logo bounces into the bottom of the screen for a split second. This causes no issues, just looks funny for a second.

faceunlock has a slight animation that looks kinda weird, but works perfectly fine. It is not meant for the Google Face Unlock implementation.

(removing next build)

When you attempt to get into raven launcher settings, it will close for a second, then opens within it's settings. (Only does it first launch)

Hi!

I have a GAC (Trumpchi) GS8 2022. It does not support android auto or installing any apks. there is no file explorer on board. Also, I cannot access the factory settings as require a password. all I was able to get this snapshot when the settings page briefly appeared upon cancelling the password entry prompt . Can anyone let me know how I can get into the system settings or atleast enable developer options and USB debugging. It has easyconnect and I'm currently using my mobile to run apps on the mirrored screen. But I'm guessing the head unit in android based, so I can install some apps or atleast HeadUnit Reloaded for "native" android auto via self mode. Appreciate any tips. If you know what password works to get me into factory settings, please let me know.

Hey there, did you get a response to your query. I just received my 2023 GS8 and realised Apply Car Play is not supported - only Easy Connect.

How did you get into the config menu to see the password prompt?
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
Sorry to say:

You won´t get anywhere with these units.

This may be Android as OS, but it´s closed software and you won´t be able to install anything. The implementation of Android is exactly stripped to the OEM needs.

I also would not recommend to try to hack these units, as you would get rid of the warranty and to brick the unit is not that difficult by using any other firmware.

Firmware is installed by the seller. so I would ask him why this is not possible.
[Android Head-Units] michbrown:
Okay. Shame and thanks for the quick response.
[Android Head-Units] ReNish83:
Is there any apk file for a Picasou android box in order to detect from the android system which doesnt come up with built in apple carplay option.
[Android Head-Units] ReNish83:
I was driving a GS7 earlier and the wireless android auto feature was absolutely working fine thru a device called Picasou Android box when i plugged it to the usb slot. This was possible as the GS7 had inbuilt apple carplay in it.

But now i have upgraded my car to the new GS8 2023 and for a shock i couldnt find the apple car play option in it and only carbitlink/screen mirroring is supported. I was so dissapointed. After a lot of research i found out a solution where if we can install the autokit app in the car console, you can use a device like carlinkit and your wireless android auto and apple carplay will work fine like before. I am posting a insta video posted by a carlinkit dealer where he demostrates the wireless carplay and android auto options on GS8 2023 model vehicle. Hope i have been helpful to you.
[Android Head-Units] michbrown:
Thanks for posting this. The video looks good. The key question is how to install the carlinkit apk? I’ve managed to find the config menu but do not know the PIN. Have you figured it out?
[Android Head-Units] ReNish83:
Yes.You get into the search mode of the navigation and follow the below steps

1.Press and hold the , for 3 seconds and select language.

Hello Guys, just for you know, i am going to buy a GAC (Trumpchi) GS3 Power 2022 and i was reading all your comment, and after looking for a while, i saw on aliexpress a device compatible with the brand, it calls WIZCAR A2, this is the webpage: https://wizcartech.com/products/wizcar-a2 . You can do your order from alixexpress webpage. For me i only need the android auto kit because my car have already Apple CarPlay installed so im going to buy this its not cheap (around US$100) but it solves the issue i think. Good luck guys
[Android Head-Units] a7mdo0oh:
Hello guys.

For GAC (Trumpchi) GS8 2023 that does not support carplay you need the following:

1. First, install autokit apk using USB memory card.

2. Buy a product called carlinkit wireless & wired android auto apple carplay dongle USB adapter. You can get it from Aliexpress (the device in the picture).

This device is the one you connect it with the USB slot of the car.

3. Get another product from the same brand called carlinkit Ai box (the picture is attached). This device needs to be connected to the first one.

In a nutshell, you need to install an app and two devices connected to each other in order to enjoy your big screen with netflix, youtube..etc.

I hope it works for you
