Hola buenas soy nuevo en este grupo y me gustaría saber si puedo instalar esta rom em mi samsung a73 con one ui 5.1 binario 5.
[Samsung Galaxy A73 5G] Frax3r:
You won't have wifi. Not to mention broken nfc and permissive kernel. Its outdated and in it's current state I'd prefer a gsi over this.
[Samsung Galaxy A73 5G] kjarso:
Como podría instalar lineage os 20 en gsi no entiendo muy bien ese procedimiento. Tal ves me podrías ayudar con alguna guía para poder instalar lineage os gsi

Mod translation: How could I install lineage os 20 in gsi, I don't understand that procedure very well. Maybe you could help me with some guide to install lineage os gsi
[Samsung Galaxy A73 5G] Frax3r:
Download the gsi (aosp, los, elixir, crdroid, pixel experience, another aosp)

prefer vndklite if possible,

arm64 is what you're looking for, not a64 or arm64_binder32

bvn, vanilla means there are no google apps so flash them seperately: gapps

bgn, gapps, slim has google apps so you can skip gapps package

if it's .xz file unpack it,

transfer .img and .zip file to your phone,

boot to twrp,

go to install menu and select gsi image, pick system partition then flash,

go to wipe menu, swipe to factory reset,

go back to install menu select the gapps zip file and wait for it to finish,

afterwards reboot to system,

I'd create a full guide but I still haven't unlocked my a73 so this is all from my memory, feel free to correct me
[Samsung Galaxy A73 5G] manuperaza:
GSI "significa Generic System Image release".

Osea una imagen generica que podria funcionar no solamente con ese modelo en especifico, si no tambien con otros. Como siempre, al no ser especifico podria haber problemas con algunas funciones o no funcionar del todo.

Translated:

GSI means "Generic System Image" release.

That is a generic Android image that may work with your device, as well as some others. Since that's not model specific, there are features that might not work properly.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Keigo_Akashi:
Hello,

I'm currently facing an issue with my MDA Vario V. I'm stuck on the setup screen of Windows Mobile 6.1, the phone freezes at completion. I want to restore it, but the official German T-Mobile ROM is not available anymore. The Hard_SPL method is not working in 2023.

This is the old link for the ROM I'm looking for:

http://www.t-mobile.de/downloads/neu/mda_vario_v.zip

Another user had the same issue a decade ago, here is the link of the thread:

https://xdaforums.com/t/q-htc-touch-pro-2-stuck-pls-help-noob.1241423/

If someone is willing to help me, please reply on my post. I'm trying to figure things out for weeks but had minor success. I know this phone is obsolete and about 15 years old, but I still have a sweet spot for such devices and really want it working again.

Update: I also called Telekom (former T-Mobile), they already removed all documentation and couldn’t help me either.

I let the phone “finish” the setup for about 2 days now. Still no success. On reboot I’m sometimes able to bug it out and enter the message / mail / settings app, but it freezes there too.

Regards,

Keigo
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Keigo_Akashi:
When trying to load an image from the SD card, I also get the "no Image File!" error. Probably due to the lack of Hard_SPL.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] VetrixFX:
Hi, I don't know if you still need this, but I still got the last update (atleast I think it's the last one), which is basically includes the whole German ROM for the MDA Vario V. I found the update files on the Austrian Telekom support site on the Waybackmachine, which fortunately were fully hosted there. I believe it is Windows Mobile 6.5 (which you actually have too, Windows Mobile 6.1 didn't have the orange startup screen).

Here are the downloads to the update files:

https://mega.nz/folder/Fsg2lAgA#Fk_jcRd-v_E9Cw6PlFZGYg (Folder that I uploaded to MEGA for faster download speeds)

https://web.archive.org/web/20120412004354/http://www.t-mobile.at/info-und-support/dlc/DLC.php#tab4 (The original link, where I downloaded the files from, posted in case MEGA shuts off or something like that)

If you see this and really NEED Windows Mobile 6.1 and not 6.5, I got a second Vario V lying around with 6.1, from which I could try to dump the ROM from.

Grüße,

vetrixfx
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Keigo_Akashi:
Hi VetrixFX,

thank you very much for the reply including both links! I lost hope and forgot about this topic, but I will try the Update later that day. If you're interested I will inform you how the procedure went.

Grüße,

Keigo
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] VetrixFX:
Yeah of course share your progress, and I'm glad I could help you out.

I'm interested tho on what you're planning to do with your MDA. I myself grabbed it out the drawer, because I wanted to run Rhobuntu, since I never did that and had the funny idea to run dwm on it. And this is how I came to your post fortunately hahahah
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Keigo_Akashi:
Hi,

The phone was deeply discharged (of course) and had to charge it for a full day. I tried the ROM you sent me, sadly I get the following error:

View attachment 6072117

Any idea how to bypass that?

If it ever works again I want to experience Windows Mobile again, that was my plan. But your idea sounds interesting too! I really liked the phone back in the day, fond memories.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] VetrixFX:
Hmm that's weird. Maybe you can try to flash the ROM by putting the "RUU_signed.nbh" (maybe you need it to rename to RHODIMG.nbh first) file into the root folder of the SD card and pressing a certain key combo (don't remember which one) to let it flash the ROM.

If that doesn't work, I assume that's the signatures mismatching between the German and Austrian models. Maybe give HardSPL unlocking another try, since I see no other way
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Keigo_Akashi:
Thanks for the advice. I try to figure the key combination out and do it that way. Is your Vario V with WM 6.1 from Germany? Maybe a ROM dump from this phone will work.

HardSPL is sadly a dead method being shutdown years ago.

Edit:

Device doesn’t accept the ROM either:

View attachment 6072358
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] VetrixFX:
Ah damn, what a bummer. Guess I got lucky when I did HardSPL in 2016/2017. Weird that there is no alternative method tho.

My 6.1 Vario V is from Germany, I will look into ROM-dumping and rebuilding later, since I never did it before. Hopefully the tools for that are still available.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Keigo_Akashi:
There is probably no interest in this phone anymore. Sad but hard reality.

That's perfect. Thanks for trying, if you are successful that would be great. I never did ROM dumping myself, don't know how to pull it off on a WM device. There is probably a tool deep buried in the internet.
[Sony Xperia 5 IV] klotzey:
Hey!

I've been wondering if there's any proper settings for vibration strength/length available that I should know of? The phone is lovely and everything but I really seem to not be able to find a way to change vibration ... whenever I get an IG DM the phone is causing earthquakes...

Also: I've been trying to get the display to run at 90Hz, I've tried SetEdit but the display runs only at either 60Hz or 120.. Since the phone has a rather mediocre battery life I thought I might be able to squeeze an extra hour per day out of it with going @90Hz.
[Sony Xperia 5 IV] ragu24:
They are not LTPO or variable. You either run at 60Hz mode with less rendered FPS, or go to 120Hz for anything needing over 61FPS. If you set it to render 90FPS you'll be saving negligible amount of power unless it's a game, since the screen is already running at 120Hz mode/power, just not rendering at max capacity.
[Sony Xperia 5 IV] klotzey:
on many other devices people a squeezing out quite some more battery life by having their displays run at 90Hz instead of 120. I really hoped to be able to do the same since the battery life is the only slight disappointment on the 5IV. thanks for the reply tho :)
[Sony Xperia 5 IV] DanielMode:
dude i run 120Hz and get though 2 days without charging easaly
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] cbouillot:
Hello,

As it is impossible for me to use some apps I would like to restore my S20FE as it was initially

I unrooted, reinitialized it but I still have, for some apps, pops up saying that firmware was modified and that app could not work

Is it possible to remove all specifi modification from my S20FE ( 781B, snapdragon version)
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
Use Odin to reflash the factory firmware, then lock the bootloader.

Depending on the apps you're having trouble with, you may be able to use Magisk modules to restore functionality while retaining root. See this thread. However, be aware that since Samsung likes to throw their own wrench into the works in the form of Knox Guard, Samsung specific apps that depend on Samsung specific security features may not work.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] cbouillot:
Hello

Thanks; would you have a procedure to recommend me to lock the bootloader ? Perhaps I failed at this step
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
After you've used Odin to flash the original factory firmware, use the same process you used to unlock the bootloader; since the device is already unlocked, you will be prompted to lock it.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] cbouillot:
To unlock it, when i am on the screen "unlock bootloader" should I press yes (up) or no (down)

I just tried again with up

anyway to ckeck if bootloader it locked or not

EDIT: Ok , I tried again and it ask me if I want to lock it
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] cbouillot:
That would mean that despite I resinstalled original firmware and loc the bootloader , it is detected as "modified"
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] cbouillot:
I confirmed; it is locked with a samsung firmware but still not abble to install some apps

Any idea ?

[Android Head-Units] S3nS3IW00:
Hi!

I don't really know the brand of the head unit I use, it says AJ002-OB at about section. I use Android Auto with HeadUnitReloaded. By default the head unit has a bluetooth call feature that brings up an overlay that completely blocks the screen making it unable to use while calling in progress. This also could be a reason to disable it, but since Android Auto has its own call feature, therefore I want to use that and only that. Can the default call feature somehow be disabled? Android Auto requires bluetooth audio connection to forward the call audio to the speakers, therefore disabling call feature on the phone makes android auto call feature useless as well.

Thank you!
[Android Head-Units] Cutprods:
Disabling the Bluetooth app itself does not disable BT functionality, since BT is not integral to the Android OS in these Chinese headunits, as it is with a smartphone - the app's name is a slight misnomer. I have been using HUR and AA, with the headunit external car mic and steering wheel button to place a call or use GA, like this for 4 years, without the overlay coming up. If you ever need to pair your phone or a new one, you will need to enable the app again, since that facility is only available in this app. Similarly if the unit is completely rebooted as in saved factory settings, you will need to disable the Bluetooth app again to work with HUR/AA phone/voice - it reenables automatically - but it will stay disabled for the normal sleep cycle of these headunits.
[Android Head-Units] S3nS3IW00:
I meant disabling the bluetooth audio feature on the phone itself, not the app. How can I disable the app? Because it is not in the list of apps in settings.
[Android Head-Units] Cutprods:
Android Auto only uses Bluetooth audio for phone calls, all other audio, is over either USB or Wifi. If you disable the car's Bluetooth, which is what you originally suggested, you will have no initial connection anyway besides not being able to handle calls over the car's HU, as AA needs that to fire up first. If you disable Bluetooth audio on your phone, which is possible through clicking the cog by your paired BT connection, again you will have no phone calls on the HU. You cannot disable the phone Bluetooth via apps, since as I explained it is part of the Android OS on smartphones - you can switch BT off - again you will have no connection/no calls for AA.

You asked about the phone app overlay I explained how to get rid of that - not factory settings at all - Android settings (on the car)>apps>Bluetooth>disable (as shown in the picture you attached). It sounds like you have something set up wrongly for HUR/AA. One other reason Bluetooth phone calls may not work over the car's speaker's/mic, is if Audio sink is disabled in HUR settings too, then the only way the audio could arrive to the HU is via BT and only the phone's mic would be recognised by AA - but I have never tried that. But I am slightly confused now by what you are trying to achieve and what is happening for you, I can only vouch that Headunit Reloaded and Android Auto work perfectly as they should, in the way I described in my car.

One other thing I should add with my PX5 HU, canbus mapping of my steering wheel mic button, fires the BT/Phone app and the overlay. Not only did I have to disable the car's Bluetooth app but I also had to use MTCDTools to send the HUR intent gb.xxy.hr.mic to the button, in order to fire both Google Assistant voice and phone with AA - no need for 'Hey Google'; no overlay; click mic button, GA is already listening in AA, then say "Navigate to; Call such and such; Play x on Spotify..." etc.
[Android Head-Units] S3nS3IW00:
So lets clear it out because as I see we misunderstand each other. I have an Android Headunit which I don't know the brand of. I use Android Auto with HeadUnit Reloaded through USB. I know, that Android Auto still needs bluetooth connection in order to make calls through car's speakers. My Headunit has its own call feature through bluetooth, that brings up an overlay that completely blocks the screen while calling is in progress no matter what is on the screen. It overlays Android Auto (so HeadUnitReloaded) and it covers the map as well that is not a good thing. Android Auto's call feature working simultaneously with the default call feature, so everything set up correctly. The only problem I want to solve is that I don't need the default overlay when I use Android Auto. The factory system is protected from developer settings and I cannot disable or uninstall any bloatware including bluetooth app.
[Android Head-Units] Cutprods:
This is the third time now I have said how to get rid of the overlay over AA - it is the Bt/phone app (in the car head unit, not on the phone) disable it - I don't know I can be clearer than that, notwithstanding you've provided very little details of your headunit. If you can't disable this app, which is not 'bloatware' btw, then you have something very wrong with your system. You need to talk to the manufacturer, since every Android device, and absolutely just about all these head units will at least allow you to disable these apps.
[Android Head-Units] S3nS3IW00:
But I cannot disable it, as the attached image shows. The brand of my headunit (according to model that is AJ002-OB) is maybe AMPrime but that is the only thing I know about it.

I'll try to get some technical help from the store I bought the headunit. It would be nice if the call feature could be disabled simply with a check.

Anyway, thanks for your help.
[Android Head-Units] Cutprods:
As I say, there is something wrong then with your rom and headunit - in order to achieve what you want, you will need to be able to disable and re-enable this app, for any new pairing, at will. I have never seen a Chinese Android head unit that won't allow this.
[Android Head-Units] Cutprods:
You're welcome! A simple check is the same as disabling the app, which is a 15 second job and you're only disabling an MCU interface app to the Bluetooth device - it's important that the BT still functions, fortunately it does when you are able to disable the app. Anyway I hope you get some help with your store - you most likely will have to update your rom and MCU. Once you get it sorted, if you invoke this BT/Phone app on your steering wheel mic button presently, which is usually the case with the canbus boxes that came with these devices, you will most likely (though not always, some already function and those units with SWC can easily be mapped) also have to send an intent as I described earlier, for AA to function correctly for GA/calls, from this button. I used MTCDTools for that but I believe Tasker could do the same.
[Android Head-Units] ferby09:
I can't disable the Bluetooth app as well but you can disable the display over other apps permission. That worked for me.
[Android Head-Units] ElIT3ShOOT3R:
I tried that and it stills shows the overlay while using AA.

Hello!

I am trying to flash an android phone through a 32 bit Linux computer as mentioned in the subject line. The point is there are no SP Flash tools available in 32 bit architecture. On googling several sites indicate 32 bit application but after downloading and extracting the files are all written in 64 bit, can anybody suggest a link to download SP flash tool in 32 bit Linux mint or Ubuntu or architecture such that I can flash my old mobile Micromax E484 .

Indeed ! notnoelchannel Yep! Itried all these sites before I came here. It has a site for 32 bit version but on downloading and checking the file, it appears to be a 64 bit file. Therefore you will receive a permission denied error, I had earlier not knowingly tried to change the file permission through chmod and chown but disappointingly failed to start the application due to the above reason Permission denied. Eventually checking the file indicated it was a 64 bit and cannot be executed.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alza689:
I had Win XP till 2017, it became hard to browse through the internet once the support ended , instead of changing the laptop which was expensive changed my Operating system from Windows to Linux . This appears to be a robust soft ware than previous but my computer is old still in the 32 bit architecture. Therefore the applications must be in the parallel versions as well. Hence the request.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jorsher:
I had the latest OEM rom. I've installed the custom Lineage OS 18 rom listed here. The OEM ran 'better' but still not well, even after a full wipe. Really only want to use the tablet for Plex. With all apps disabled that can be disabled, the CPU stays maxed. Clicking something takes seconds for the OS to respond. Bluetooth regularly crashes. I tried installing the YouTube app since Plex was super-choppy, and it literally took 10+ minutes to install. Being that the tablet runs like a complete turd with fresh wipes/installs, I'm thinking there's some sort of hardware fault.

Before I give up on it, any suggestions? I literally only want it for watching Plex or YouTube, but it can't even handle that as-is.
