Pretty sure you have to wipe all to get rid of a pin, so I would say it is almost the same.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] simplepinoi177:
There are two schools of thought on locked vs. unlocked bootloader security (both which I quote below) that I saw discussed a while back on the subject. It may not directly speak on pin protecting your data -- they discuss some on how your device is encrypted behind your pin so even if stolen, it should still be secure (enough) -- but at the very least there are ways around EFS so your device might still be of some use and/or, maybe given enough time you never know what can happen; which is discussed a bit in the quote & discussion (in the thread they do it in) below...

You could click on either posts (they are made in the same thread) to follow the discussion more (they go on for a bit, but not to too much more of a degree)...
[Touch HD General] XeonSX:
It started to annoy me lately that whenever my wifi drops for 2sec the phone uses 3G. Although that is a nice option in most cases it isnt for me. I want to be able to select which network I want to use: operator's or mine. I looked for settings to switch off 3G and gprs but only "disable hsdpa/hsupa" is there which I believe will disable 3G and not GPRS too. It also requires restart (

So am I missing something and if phone OS cannot offer this, is there a program to help me with managing connections?

Thank you!
[Touch HD General] RizwanKhan:
i don't know if this option even exists on hd ... i know it does on kaiser (sorry don't have an hd yet to confirm this).

Under settings isn't there are a tab for connections?? in kaiser i can go to this tab and click on connections and than select the network that i want to use. This is part of the os on kaiser and considering hd runs wm as well should be a part of that too (speculation as don't have a hd).
[Touch HD General] XeonSX:

[Touch HD General] XeonSX:
Can I reenable any connection I want at any time?
[Touch HD General] custardo01:
I don't know why they make it so difficult to work out - very annoying.

To stop gprs frpm automatically coming on go Start/Settings/Connections Tab/Connections button/Advanced tab/Select Networks button. Then in the pop up where it says "Programs that automatically connect to the Internet should connect using:

Select "MY ISP".

That will stop GPRS and if you ever want it just obviously do reverse and select "Your network name GPRS"

I've never seen an option to switch off 3G - will be interested if there is a way without installing a third party app.

Hope that helps.

Guys sometime back I made an error while flashing custom rom onto my Redmi note 10 5g(camellia) device and erased my imei and since then I can only use 4G network which at the moment isn't everywhere in my country..

I tried using default engineering mode but there is no cds information and no atci in the options.. I also tried tried downloading the engineering rom and tried using Mauei META tool but it corrupted my Nvdata and I had to use MTK meta utility v104 to clear Nvdata and nvram but until now I can't fix my imei..

Please guys is there anything am doing wrong or missing out while trying to fix my phone.. Any help will be appreciated..

You should never have to use the option to Format All through SP Flash tool, rarely you need that. I guess you have a nandroid backup, so restore it.
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] dannykuma:
I didn't have the nandroid backup... Isn't there any work around?
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] SubwayChamp:
Even after try all the methods, things can be lost in the way, sorry.

The option to format all+download is exclusive of use to engineers.

Although this said, you should keep trying. For the maui meta part, instead, you should try with modem meta, it´s not necessary to have an engineer ROM in order to get it working, in some builds, entering to meta mode is as easy like commanding adb reboot meta

For some reference, you can learn from this forum, read all the pages, https://xdaforums.com/t/redmi-note-9-imei-invalid-null.4241945/

I installed Microsoft Compact NET Framework 3.5

And

Then I installed Call Surprise 1.21.

My phone does not ring my mp3!

And when I install the test software, it says the names of my MP3's have been found.

Here is what I put in the first box (search in folders box):

/Storage Card/Application Data/Call Surprise/

The above directory is absolutely correct. It does not like like this:

/Storage Card/Application Data/Call Surprise

And it does not look like this

/Storage Card /Application Data /Call Surprise/

And what the heck is the exclude these box? Is this where I put a list of unwanted sub directories?

[General Questions and Answers] hotrod101:
search in folders box = try pointing to- \Storage Card\My Documents\My Ringtones

Put your ring tones you want to ring in there.

The exclude these box is if you have all of your mp3's in the specified folder and don't want Call surprise to play certain mp3's such as allert sounds - or some very soft music which you wouldn't hear as a ring tone. You would probably point to it like this in exclude box

\Storage Card\My Documents\My Ringtones\"name of mp3"

Can someone please tell me how to make it work. I thought it works on Xperia X1A?
[General Questions and Answers] hotrod101:
when you open file explorer find where your normal ringtones are stored. Try pointing to that folder first to see if call surprise will randomize those rintones. Then find exactly where you have your other mp3's you want used as ringtones and point directly to that. Do not try excluding anything yet. Just point to these and test.
[General Questions and Answers] poetryrocksalot:
Hey Hotrod! It finally worked!

The first problem was that I used / instead of \

There is also another problem where sometimes I don't get call surprise to work.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] rsw686:
I wanted to build an nbh of my stock rom to have for warranty purposes. Yes I know you can download these, but I wanted to build it myself.

I've dumped the original rom with pdocread and have the 4 parts. From what I've read you need to have a base RUU_signed.nbh to reconstruct the rom with a kitchen.

What does the RUU_signed.nbh have that the 4 dumped parts don't.? It doesn't make sense that I can't just compile the 4 parts back into an nbh file.

Am I going to have a 100% factory rom when I reconstruct with the RUU_signed.nbh?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] rsw686:
I used Calkulin's Kitchen to make a rom folder from the RUU_signed.nbh file. The difference in the OS.nb.payload and the part02.raw file is 8MB. Supposedly when cooking the rom it merges the imgfs from part02.raw over that part in the OS.nb.payload file. Does anybody know what is in that 8mb that can't be recreated from the dump?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dsixda:
I've noticed the ROM Version (under Device Information) and the startup date (during screen calibration) are no longer the same as original. But you can go into the kitchen files and change the ROM Version in the registry and re-cook it. Don't know how to change the bootup date though.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] SpiritOne:
I thought I would add this here unless anyone else runs into the same problem. I broke my HTC Weather yesterday while trying to upload local cities into it. I am running the Dec 03 release of HyperDragon, but HTC Weather seems to be the same (at least in terms of files to edit) across different platforms.

After adding my local city, and uploading it back to the phone when I went into the weather tab to add a new city, I was unable to search for any cities. In fact the search screen contained no entries at all. Essentially, I corrupted the xml file, and the phone was unable to read it.

How I broke it:

Be careful what you edit with. I just opened the file with word pad in Vista to copy my new city information, but the xml file and word pad don't like each other. I found that the tilde ( ` ) <--- that character appearing over letters was unsupported in word pad. The xml file was unable to then read it. It saw it as corrupted data.

To fix it:

I just deleted the offending cities with tilde's in them. I didn't need them anyways. However, one could also just edit the file with a better program and re-upload it to the phone. Once I fixed the file, HTC Weather saw my new cities and was more than happy to read them.

Maybe someone else already went over this. I don't know. But I know I searched on the forum for quite some time without finding out what I did wrong.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] Genesis3:
Aha - I screwed up. Its working now :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] Genesis3:
Spoke too soon..... it KINDA works.

The currnet Manila 2D executable will go back to the top screen (the home page) if you hit the END button twice. It also will mark an incoming SMS "read" if you sit on it on the top page for a few seconds.

The patched one does neither. It will not go back to home unless you navigate there, and SMS do not get marked read.

Is the patch involved (e.g. could I go in with a hex editor and make a change to the CURRENT Manila executable?)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] Genesis3:
Update to THAT....

I took a quick look at the executables and found the change, with the different URLs. However, it appears the new one is longer than the old, which means that a quick "patch in place" is unlikely to work (I have no idea what's AFTER that block of data - and it ain't zeros, and IS apparent UTF-8 text - so I'm likely to scramble something doing a quick overwrite.)

This in turn implies that you need a way to disassemble the exe file and replace the data, then reassemble it (e.g. to assembler, at least) assuming you don't have source.

So..... anyone have a tool for this or is this a case of "have lots of fun playing with something that can disassemble it, find a clean place in the data segment to put the new reference, and fix it that way" sort of game?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] Corpsegrinder:
yep... just rubbing it in some more ;)

I wouldn't use notepad either. I'd rather not get into a long discussion about editing xml files with notepad either :D

An XML editor is definitely the way to go.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] Genesis3:
Yet another update....

What's with the app here? I patched it with a string that fits using a hex editor.

What I wind up with refuses to run. Are these apps cryptographically signed?

Answer: Yep, and once modified, the signature is no good. I don't see anything in Advanced Config that can turn that protection off either; you can disable the requirement that CABs be signed, but I don't see where you can disable the requirement that APPLICATIONS be signed. My security policy settings are such that all security is off, but attempting to run the patched executable by hand elicits a complaint about the signature being invalid. I presume that a MISSING signature would be ok, but a CORRUPT one is going to get complained about - and I have no means to fix that.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] Genesis3:
Yet more....

I have found the code-signing tools after rooting around and re-signed the application.

It still fails to work; it appears there is a SECOND call to an HTC web site in the current Manila2D code which is NOT in the other patched file.

That one goes to: http://weather.manila1.htc.com/widget/htc/forecast-data_v3.asp?locCode=

DNS shows the address is a CNAME to htc.accuweather.com, and the worse news is that the replacement string that goes in the other place doesn't fit in there - its one byte too long.

It also looks like THIS is the one being called for updates, because changing the other, direct call to the htc.accuweather.com link doesn't change anything - the codes in the file that refer to places accuweather handles still work, but those that refer to other places do not.

Any ideas?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] Genesis3:
Final Fix - Read

Ok, here's what I've accomplished.

I patched the Manila2D.exe (the CURRENT copy from HyperDragon and others) and have re-signed the code (with a self-signed cert)

I also grabbed the php script and set it up on a VERY short domain name I registered this afternoon, htcwx.org - it exists ONLY for this purpose and is NOT a generic HTC web site.

I have modified the script as necessary, and the firmware as necessary. The replacement Manila2D.exe file is attached. To implement this simply replace the Manila2D.exe in your \Windows directory on the device with the one in this ZIP file. That's it; you can then add city codes at will in the weather file list and they will work.

The previously-posted version of Manila2D.exe has a couple of bugs that I consider show-stoppers, and patching the current version necessitated having a shorter URL as one of the places required to be patched would not allow the "not2advanced" url to fit.

Note that this weather reflector is being run by me, is OPEN and will remain indefinitely; I have a very high-bandwidth connection and expect no interruption in that service. Feel free to use it.

I now have WORKING HTC weather in Manila for virtually anywhere.... and you can too without the restrictions that existed in the previous patched copy (no return to home screen with the END key, and no SMS message marking)

This script "portal" should also work with any other patched HTC Home or HTC Manila applications; the complete url is http://htcwx.org/wx.php?

Note that there is NO general content on that web site.

Enjoy!

PS: As of this instant the .ORG TLD nameservers haven't picked the domain up yet from my registrar. That's abnormal; I see it on my infrastructure but not globally. It should be globally visible by morning.
