[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] EdwardSawhands:
Veterans of XDA and Samsung mobiles, please help!

I got myself a Note 20 Ultra 5G today! The model number is shown as SM-986U/DS. I searched and one site showed it's the Exynos model, whereas CPU-Z showed that it's the Snapdragon one!

Did I just buy a fake one? Please help me to find id it is an original one! The Store I bought this from, told me that it came from US but while the phone started, it did not show any US Carrier logo (like T-Mobile, Verizone etc.)

I am attaching the screenshots of About Phone page, please advise me if I need to post any other pictures for clarification! I suppose the IMEI is not necessary, right?

Please help and thanks in advance!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] tutibreaker:
that model is for snapdragon variant, to check if device is fake or not plug it into pc and open smart switch, this will read the device info, if it does is real if not, must be fake
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] EdwardSawhands:
Thank you!!

Please give me some time to check it and then reply!

Thanks again!

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] SkandaH:
@EdwardSawhands

As mentioned by @tutibreaker, it's indeed a genuine US Snapdragon variant of the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G. However, there are some points you might need to consider.

To be precise, it's a carrier model meant for Verizon, which has probably been SIM-unlocked for usage under other carriers. As you can see, the device is running on Android 12-based One UI 4.1. Without a Verizon SIM, you can't get OTA updates on it. As a result, it would be better for you to cross-flash a carrier-unlocked (i.e. SM-N986U1) firmware manually. That way, not only you can experience One UI 5 with Android 13 right now, you can also get rid of the underlying Verizon bloat and enjoy official OTA updates without messing with manual flashing jobs.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] EdwardSawhands:
Well, thanks for pointing that out! I was really thinking why it was on Android 12 as I heard that 20 Ultra hot Android 13 and also there was no update showing...

I will take some time and read around the forum to get the cross flashing process right!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] EdwardSawhands:
One more thing, there are actually no Verizone Bloats on the mobile. At least none thay I've found out yet. May be the guy who sim unlocked it, uninstalled all that. Anyway, I'll cross flash it once I figure out the process. Thanks again.

[Huawei P20 Lite Questions & Answers] aribk:
Hi

Is there anyone here who could explain the P20 lite boot process (for stock) and exactly what modifications are needed for a custom ROM to boot properly? Specifically, how are the kernel and recovery_ramdisk partitions used, and at what points do other partitions get mounted, etc, as well as what is needed if one wants to deviate in some way from the standard sequence.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thank you,

aribk
[Huawei P20 Lite Questions & Answers] -Alf-:
All the stages of the boot process are probably the same as with Android, the interface probably doesn't play any role there. IMO :) ).

it depends on the type of custom ROM (ported, sGSI, GSI etc.). and on the user's requirements.
[Huawei P20 Lite Questions & Answers] aribk:
OK.

Well, at some point last year someone (maybe you?) mentioned that it was important not to format the data partition on this device. Is that correct? And if so, why?
[Huawei P20 Lite Questions & Answers] -Alf-:
I mentioned that doing 'data format' (running stock EMUI 9, not custom ROM) with incompatible (not modified) TWRP 3.4.0 and above can brick our device.

It is also not recommended to do Factory reset in TWRP on Huawei devices, it can cause permanent problems.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ComeOn&DoTheConga:
Hello, I was wondering if anyone can tell me my best course of action. About 2019 / 2020 I followed one of the guides to upgrade Android to Lineage OS and just after was offered a more modern Huawei at a reasonable price and hence the S5 Mini ended up at the bottom of a draw. I have recently promised the S5 Mini to a friend but now I'm unable to remember the pattern!

I was thinking perhaps I could reset the phone but I have no idea where the original "Android" backup could be and I don't have a clue which particular method I used to install the Lineage OS or if that makes any difference.

Any advice would be appreciated

Hello,

I wanted to share with you my recent discovery, which is strangely very very little known.

It is a modified version of instagram, which is updated by the developer daily, and which has the developer options, the ads free and the Messenger update activated by default. (Which means you can quote messages in PM even if you are in Europe).

To access the developer options, long press the home button on the bottom right. If you still see ads in the feed, disable the following experiments: "is tigon enabled" (disable the result) "mobile stack network" (disable "is enabled") "reasons csv" (click on it and click on "client default").

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Magicdead:
well, on my quest for finding a decent scientific calculator for my HD, i finally settled with an emulated HP 49 g. I tried the Ti89 emulator, but it was a little sluggish/slow.

But as there was a lack of a good skin/theme for the HD resolution, I modified an existing theme to fit my needs and wanted to share it with you ;)

Just copy the 2 files in the rar to \Program Files\Emu48\ (or whereever you saved emu48 to, and choose "beemer's VGA HP 49 modified" as KML Script

The main Calculator Buttons are resized (screen and softkeyboard are the same size as in the original Skin) and i added smal red letters for the keyboard, indicating the special symbols you get when you tap the Beta Button in the lower right of the softkeyboard.

To install the Emu48, go to http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Emulating HP's calculators on Windows Mobile

And if you end up with the same problem i have (only having a rom.e49 instead of the rom.49g) try installing the 49g rom from "Emu48PPCv116Setup.zip" on this page: http://hp.giesselink.com/emu48.htm

Hope this helps some of you people ;)

QWVGA Skin for HP48 or HP49

Do you know if somebody has developed a skin for QWVGA devices. I have an Omnia i900 and don't find any skin that fits.

Thanks
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Logan5:
Thank you for this skin, Magicdead. With my layout for Free42 (see http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=462316), it's christmas for HP calculator lovers !

I prefer HP42 for everyday use, but I need HP49 CAS from time to time; now HP49 emulation is quite usable on Blackstone.

Wqvga 240 x 400

How did you modified the screen to your needs? I need to do the same for my 240 X 400 Omnia screen.

Thanks
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Magicdead:
as you see, the skin is 2 files, an image file and a text file. I resized/modified the image (i basically made the main buttons larger and adjusted some of the others) and then adjusted the coordinates in the text file. for the coordinates, just take the pixels from the upper-left corner of the images.

Also, check out the "KML20R13" file at http://hp.giesselink.com/emu48.htm for a more detailed description of the kml file

Well, I'm glad someone is using it ;) Thanks for the nice words
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] cymersa:
Thanks, but it looks pretty complicated for someone without experience. I think, I will have to wait.

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Georgeous2008:
Free42 is an emulator of the HP42. It's available for Pocket PC. Last week I ported the iphone-skin of Free42 to WVGA resolution (via upscaling and tweaking) and have made it run on my Touch HD, the button mapping was hard work though.

It looks fantastic now, however, I need to ask the author of the original size picture for his authorization so that I can share the skin with you. The problem is that Free42 on the iphone is not free (at least not when purchased through iTunes), it's a 5 dollar application. :rolleyes:

Check here for a screenshot of the iphone free42 port :

It may only be a matter of days...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ji3m:
I just posted my last month's work on ModaCo. A truly fine fit of the HP 49 to the omnia. The 400x240 WQVGA made it all possible. Legible and readable. I made two versions, one of which is finger friendly with very little compromize to the full functionality of the HP49.

Check it out at http://www.modaco.com/content/i9x0-omnia-http-omnia-modaco-com/284163/hp49-on-the-omnia/#entry969746
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] gaelynx:
Thanks but your version doesn't work properly on Blackstone, it displays in portrait instead of landscape, should I use an external application (such as FlipIt) to force the landscape?

Update:

Indeed we need to set to Landscape mode to use ji3m's WQVGA skin. It works then pretty fine, except that the graphics feels low-res on the Blackstone WVGA screen, and the button detection-boxes doesn't fit *perfectly* the button graphics (still usable though).
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ji3m:
I just spent most of last month working out two skins and keyboard layouts for emu48 /hp49 for my omnia. Most of the KML's out there are plain illegible or microscopic on the Omnia.

Belive I have a good solution- check out my post at WinMo at MoDaCo.com and search the forumns for Ji3m HP49 Omnia. It has descriptions and download. I also made a video to show it off- link is on that post and also google videeo (search for HP49 0n Samsung Omnia.

Hope you like it. Let me know.

Addendum: sorry- i didn't realize i had made a previous post yesterday. - follow the link in # 12 above. The video is new.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ji3m:
Is the Blackstone 400 x240 (WQVGA) ? If not, I cant make it fit. If it is then the problem is the definition of the screen (where is 0,0, the origin). Thge Omnia has a true landscape mode so the graphics works out- it sees the upper left (in horizontal mode) as the origin.

The kml script has a parameter "Vertical 0" in my script. For a cheap shot change it to "Vertical 1" see what happens. It make a mess on the Omnia.

The other option is that I regenerate the kml redefining all the coordinates and using a rotated image -: which is to say , redo it all in portrait mode.

Does the Blackstone have a "landscape" mode?

Update:

I just watched some videos to get familiar with the Blackstone. It would aqppear that the only difference is that the Omnia is wQvga (400x240) and the Blackstone is wvga (800 x 480) so they have the same

aspect ratio but different pixel dimensions. The graphic I provided is 400x240 and the KML script for EMU48 uses absolute coordinates. I would expect if you rotated the Blackstone the view would then be landscape but the image would be one quarter the size it needs to be.

Try this : edit the KML script and change the parameter "Zoom" to 4 . This should double the size of the

HP LCD. Then rotate the phone to landscape position. I expect the keyboard graphics to still be messed up but the LCD should be in the upper left. If this is ok then try taking the graphic file into an image editor and doubling its size. Load it again and if it looks right then just the touch boxes for the buttons will be all the wrong size and in the wrong places. If this works then all that needs to be done is to regenerate the KML script with new sizes and dimensions which I can then do. You could do this manually for some of the buttons to test out the notion.

To this point I have focused on the Omnia but it might be good to distribute an HTC version as well.

Let me know.

Thanks to both of you.

I'm not sure if it's appropriate to talk about both skins in the same thread (can be confusing). Maybe ji3m you should create a separate thread dedicated to your skin? unless Magicdead don't mind?

Actually, the solution is quite simple, at least in my case:

flash stock rom with odin (auto reboot off)

after stock rom flash, reboot from download mode with vol down & power btn, usb still plugged in

immediately after screen turns dark, release power btn and press vol up and vol down

download mode/unlock bootloader menu will appear

continue with unlocking bl (long press vol up)

confirm prompt of factory reset

tablet will automatically reboot and perform factory reset and restart again

stock rom boots after this.
