[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Questions & Answers] Andrologic:
The unlock service has been taken down by ASUS. The latest message is that it will come back in Nov, they previously said Sep. You can't count on information from ASUS, they have a history of being horrible, so don't count on it before you see it.

You should however not need unlocked BL to up/downgrade firmware by flashing RAW or EDL. If you can find the RAW files for the version you need (or lower version RAW + higher official), you should be able to flash it.
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Questions & Answers] Cryen:
Yup, thanks for mentioning this but the whole point of me trying to downgrade was to unlock the bootloader so yeah, I'm waiting patiently.

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] chut7:
Hi,

I lost my Samsung S9, so my parents gave me a new LG G5 phone as a replacement. Still in box with all the screen protector, wrappers, etc. because they already had a phone at the time and never ended up using it. So it's basically a brand new phone, with an ancient Oreo Android 8.0 OS. It's a zippy phone, and it's lovely to have a battery sit at 100% for hours on standby (whereas my daily-use Samsung S9 would drop to 99% after a 15 minutes of standby)

All would be fine, except there's two apps I use that need Android 10 - DUO authenticator (which I need for work) and Lastpass.

So I started looking into upgrading the OS, and found these forums. I'd be fine with switching to a custom ROM, but have a few questions:

What custom mod would you recommend for someone merely looking for Android 10 compatibility? I've read that one can lose hardware functionality with custom roms...what are the "known issues"?

Does anyone know whether Lastpass or DUO install on these custom roms?

I'm also happy for someone to just send me a link somewhere that can answer these questions!

Thanks!
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] bmwdroid:
Which G5 are you talking about?

If it's a new H850 the bootloader is not any longer unlockable as LG ceased that service.

My unlocked H850 did loose only FM (didn't find any app working with it) and is working fine with lineage-18.1-20220320-nightly-h850-signed.

Don't know about DUO but Lastpass shouldn't care about a non-stock ROM.

Btw did you hear/read about the Lastpass security breach? Wouldn't trust them any longer.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Josh McGrath:
Agree with that last statement. They have been caught lying and half-truths since the hack/breach so I would ditch them to another service and now change your passwords.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] chut7:
Hi, thanks for the replies. But I've solved the problem by getting a used Samsung S20.

But I'm still curious about updating my LG-G5 phone (H831) to make it somewhat software-compatible. I guess my question was more about what Android version is equivalent to Lineage-18.1 . DUO and Lastpass needed Android 10, and I don't know what version of Android Lineage-18.1 (or any of the other custom roms) are branched from.

As for choice of password manager, what are y'all using? I need an Android, iPhone, and web client.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] chut7:
Looks like I can't even consider a modded rom .

I found a post that says:

H831 = Canadian market. Bootlocked. Can't be rooted.

[Samsung Galaxy S21+] zo10000:
Hi

I tried a couple of gcam ports, and for now none of them worth trying out.

A lot of them don't even start. They either crash at the beginning or crashing while trying to save the first picture. The ones with com.samsung.android.ruler, are trying to update the stock camera; the other ones com.samsung.android.scan3d, are crashing.

For now I tried different mods from BSG, Arnova, Wichaya, Shamim and none of them worked.

The stock camera is quite good. I wanted to see if a gcam port can do something better.

hi, so do you have the correct flash.dio for hp ipaq 914c WWE? :D

i just download the original ROM from hp site

extract the flash.nbf

and cut 3432 bytes (the new file starts at E9)

but I can't use it to flash my hp 914c.

Don't know why.

Hi dirlan,

i have made file *.dio as everybody in this forum did (downloading flash.nbf from hp site, then cuted the first 3432 of it away, and saved name as flash.dio. finally flashed but the result is as i told above). if you can make file .dio for me? i really would appreciate your kindly assistances

oh man,

how do you know about it?

i just thought that 91x and 61x have the same architecture.

can you show me why?

[Sable] vragon:
i just checked it again

actually the 3432th byte is EC

=>if you cut 3431 bytes from beginning, the new file must start from EC

=>if you cut 3432 bytes from beginning, the new file must start from E9

=>if you cut 3433 bytes from beginning, the new file must start from FD

warning:

this is the nbf file of WWE ROM of ipaq 914c from the hp site.

i'm confused,

don't know which 's right or wrong,

maybe i will try to patch the dll up update it but don't know where to start.
[Sable] dirlan2001:
If take a look at the screenshots below, u'd see in the first what bit i looked up... and in the second u'll see what bit it exactly is :D if u need to cut 3432 first bytes u need to include that 3432th bit also....It might even be necessary to cut some bytes more letting the new file start at 00, cos if u look in the rightpane, u'll see that these 00 are placeholders for MSFLASH50.....

There is link in the first post of the thread. Boot.img is what you need.

Open magisk app and patch boot.img.

Copy patched image to your computer, adb folder. Rename it to boot.img.

Take your phone to fastboot mode.

Connect to computer, open adb folder.

Open cmd. "Fastboot devices" - to control connectivity. Then "fasboot flash boot boot.img". That's it. Restart your phone.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexv12:
I have an old G900V in great condition but trouble is that it is locked under Samsung FRP. It originally had 6.0.1.

I was trying to remove lock, but it did not work, so I decided to just upgrade to Lineage OS 18.1.

My EMMC is 15.

I followed the guide

https://xdaforums.com/t/2022_vzw_em...-on-any-version-bootloaders_mm_ll_kk.4009089/

on how to root the device and I am able to install 4.4, root it and boot into TWRP, do advanced wipe and install the latest Lineage 18.1 image.

Once the phone reboots, it is stuck on Samsung logo.

I also tried installing 6.0.1 flash from the same forum post, but it immediately shows error, indicating that the phone is locked.

Please suggest how to proceed. Ideally, I want to upgrade to lineage, but if that is not possible, I am ok with 6.0.1, but trouble is that with the stock firmware I am not able to proceed because of FRP.

Is there a simple method to bypass the FRP, given that I have root on 4.4 and potentially can make changes in the system, while still in TWRP, after installing stock?

is this possible in WM phones, when you take the phone outa ur ear the screen lights comes on? just curious :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] duke911:
I don't think there is a WM phone right now that has this ability, however most WM phone are set to turn off display automatically after few seconds when a call begins, and it turns on auto when you finish the call.

I just don't get the point of wasting the battery to power the IR sensor just to turn off the screen when its near your ear! when the OS can do that job in an easy way.

I'm not saying it's not cool thing to have :D, but it's not necessary.

yes there are wm phones with proximity and light sensors such as the the diamond/light, touch pro or fuze/light, touch HD/I think prox. the lg invite has a proximity sensor, I think the omnia has a prox too.

I think the light sensor is more versatile because u can have your phone adjusts it's backlight according to the amount of light around it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] egzthunder1:
Well, I wouldn't exactly say that. It has happened to me a couple of times that I accidentally ended a call with my cheek or by shifting the phone from one hand to the other and accidentally touching the screen. I have a Blue Angel, which is not exactly a small piece of equipment so changing hands during a long call is kind of a must (if you don't have a BT headset that is)...

Not a bad concept, however, duke911 has a good point. You can do this by software without having to have the IR, which is a pretty good drain in the battery, on all the time. Maybe a small script to change the lead time between the time the phone call starts and the time it takes for the screen to turn off. I don't know jack about programming but it doesn't seem like a difficult task...

Hi there,

im searching for a method to customize my lockscreen on Android.

Found some Apps on the playstore but to be honest i guess they are all garbage.

I saw some options to customize the lockscreen on some custom roms and asking myself if there is some Mod to get this on every rom im trying.

I search for some options like: change the font of the clock or the color. Reposition the clock or maybe change the method to unlock the phone (like swiping left or right instead of up)

Does someone know some stuff out there that works?

I tried KLCK and this is the closest i found but it doesnt works realy well since that its a stand alone app where to need to get started after turning on the screen.

Hello,

I bought recently Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic 46mm and I have problem with Galaxy Wearable app, after I set everything up all was running correctly. The problem shows, after I turn off bluetooth on watch or phone. When I try to reconnect over bluetooth it shows in bluetooth settings that watches are paired with phone but when I look into the app it says "Your watch isn't connected to your phone." when I click on connect it doesn't reconnect. I already tried to restart the phone or watch, clear cache and also reinstall the app and the plugin. My phone brand is Xiaomi and it should work with the watch.

Thank you for any advices.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Marcelocohenarg:
Are you running MIUI? I know Xiaomi is very strict with the management of the permissions. Check permissions of the app in the phone, and do not optimize battery on this app. These are the two issues I can think of.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] iceepyon:
Try downloading Samsung Health and connecting your Galaxy Watch 4 via that app. I have heard that works best.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] UFOslava:
I don't know if I should open a new thread or not...

I have Galaxy Watch...2? (SM-R800) and PocoPhone running the MiUI. I have Glaxy Wear app and Watch2 "plugin" from the app store (that has no battery optimization options).

The watch disconnects and refuses to connect from the watch side. The only option to connect is to connect BT from the phone, and then connect via the Wear app. Connecting from Wear app alone is not successful.

Connecting like this will last me about half a day, then it's disconnected again.

I'm trying to create an Automate flow that reconnects BT and launches the "connect" activity of the Wear app. Problem is, I don't know which activity to launch.

Does anyone know Wear activities? Or another workaround to bypass MiUI draconic rule?

I live in an area that AT&T can't use their 3.7GHz until 2024 so I'm hoping the Pixel will be able to connect to the DoD spectrum since 40MHz of that is better than nothing.

View attachment 5795095

I have seen conflicting statements about this.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] xunholyx:
mmWave? Not sure about if it'll work or not, but be aware that there are two models. One is mmWave compatible and one isn't. It should if you have the mmWave device.

Go to settings > about phone > regulatory labels > model. If it says "GE2AE" there shouldn't be a problem.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] EtherealRemnant:
No, I'm not talking about mmWave, as I know my GE2AE supports that. The DoD spectrum is a subset of band n77 that runs in the 3.45-3.55GHz range as opposed to the normal 3.7-3.98GHz of n77. It requires specific support in the radio. From what I have seen, the modem supports the specification, but that it may be disabled in the firmware. AT&T has 80MHz of C-band that they can't deploy here until 2024 and their LTE network and 5G nationwide are starting to get increasingly congested so it's disappointing to hear that my new phone may not get access to what they can deploy now.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] LLStarks:
According to the FCC, the hardware does. Firmware doesn't.

Would take a very significant update to Release 16 5G or cherrypicking of the feature to enable.

The Pixel 7 is an anomaly. It's a Release 15 phone, the same as a late 2019 phone, when Release 16 has been the norm for almost every other flagship this year. I've been told that the Exynos Galaxy S22 is also Release 15 when the Snapdragon version is Release 16.

Can this still change? Maybe. I doubt it. If it's not added for the March or June QPRs, it likely won't ever. The modem is still constantly being improved, but not where it really matters.

It's already inexcusable. Qualcomm claimed 60% power efficiency increase in their jump to Release 16.

It also adds other goodies like n46 NR-U (the successor to LTE-U and LAA) and additional bands like n77 DoD 3.45 GHz, eventual n14 for AT&T/FirstNet, n70 for Dish, eventual n30 WCS for AT&T, n46 NR-U for 5 GHz wifi spectrum, n96 NR-U for 6 GHz wifi spectrum, n48 for Dish and CBRS, n29 supplemental downlink for Dish, n259 mmwave which helps AT&T, n26 for whatever Dish and T-Mobile decide to do.
