[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] slippermann:
Ayup,

TL;DR - The phone's network functionality is broken - no signal, data, says IMS isn't registered etc., even though the IMEI number is present. I've managed to fix the issue temporarily by following parts of 5G unlocking threads on XDA - the phone network went back to square one after a restart and stock firmware flash. I am unable to recreate the steps I took and get the network back to a temporary working state.

I've done something to my Pixel to completely break any mobile network functionality. I think it might be down to a corrupted /efs partition but I'm unsure; because I'm a pillock I didn't know to back it up when flashing custom ROMs onto my phone. The weird thing is, a while back I flashed a custom ROM onto the phone and reverted it to stock after about a day, but the network issues only started about a week ago.

Here are several things I've tried:

Erase modemst1 and modemst2 partitions - unable to through both su and fastboot.

Rooted phone with Magisk, installed Chinese SIM supporter, Pixel 5 carrier patch modules.

Found Pixel 5 mbn, extracted to computer and restored to the device through QPST EFS explorer (mcfg folder was empty)

Restored phone's qcn through QFIL.

Flashed ProtonAOSP kernel and ROM - thought it might fix something, but it didn't.

I'm at a complete loss and am about to send it off to a repair shop - I've been trying to fix it for a few days now and getting nowhere.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Cheers

I'm in simmiliar situation right now. My sim card slot stopped working out of a sudden, and everything happend during normal usage of the phone. I also suspected efs partition and i also did not made a backup. Thing is that only physical slot is not working, esim works just "fine". So fine i would say that i can't have it working without enabling dsds through *#*#4636#*#*. While there i can see info about phone 0(sim) and phone 1(esim). Everything in phone 1 looks normal however when i look at phone 0 instead of nothing i can see some random information taken from esim, like the fact that both slots hold t-mobile sim cards while only esim is from that carrier. I don't know anymore, i tried different roms i tried flashing manually i tried flashing with pixel flasher, nothing helped.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] slippermann:
I don't know how but I guess leaving my phone for a few days after the things I tried has sorted it out. For whatever reason when I started my phone today, it went through a series of reboots and now works. I'll post everything that I did in another post below - hopefully it'll work for you

EDIT 30/05/2023: The phone was working alright yesterday and most of today. Until it restarted itself out of the blue and has now gone back to square one - I've had enough at this point going to put it in for repair.
[Samsung Galaxy A22 5G] Decmanager:
Restructured my previous thread that was rushed to include all that I missed.

I bought this phone second hand from a friend with a smashed screen, I replaced the screen and it had a password so I blanked it using buttons (mate wasn't happy to give me password there and then) *and my impatience got me.

I thought I could OneClick it through test point since it was (still is) opened.

I wasnt getting anywhere with FRP removal, then I think I pressed All + Dload with just preloader selected or something.....

Since that it just loops on Brom no download mode etc

I can still bypass protection and get it to flashing point but no matter which firmware I try, It errors from U1 OS11 to U5 OS13.

Two errors are:

1: ANTI ROLE BACK

2: STATUS_SEC_IMGHDR_TYPE_MISMATCH (0XC0020029)

I've included below my Model which I pulled from IMEI checker.

WIlling to pay and teamview for someone to fix if it comes to that.

Hi, I just got my Fuze a week ago and I've been trying all the cool tweaks and mods out there put out by xda. I noticed on a couple of clock screen shots where the time is showing on the upper right of the screen while on the Today screen. I've only been able to get that when I switch away from the Today screen. Can I just do that through the phone settings or is that a mod too? I've searched the forum but I think my keywords suck. Thanks for helping me out.

Hi there guys.

I have awfull experience with Tesla android TV 55S906BUS

Tesla support team send me newer firmware, which was successfuly installed, and tv now turns on and has only black screen. Nothing responds, remote controll, physical button... nothing.

Tried installing it again, went successfully, but same result.

Does anyone have compatible firmware?

This is what tesla send me: AND BRICKED MY TV https://drive.google.com/file/d/1itdfl5KLHSYsac73OKuumpwGEPDulxto/view?usp=drivesdk

In service menu, TV was displayed as Skyworth, Tesla send me file which was named "Mstar -------"

So there is something common between those 3 brands (expected)

But nor tesla neither Skyworth, neither Mstar can help. They suggest to try local official service , which is a joke.

TV is 55" , board model is 9K53G , Android 10, 2GB ram 16GB rom.

Update file that i got is .bin

I have downloaded and checked all firmwares listed on skyworth Philippines, but there in none , compatible with board 9K53G.

Any help is appreciated! Thanks.

There are hundreds of Samsung and Google apps, but the names are not always very conducive to finding out what an app is called so that it can be uninstalled using ADB.

I've run 'pm list packages' and looked through the list of installed apps several times, but I still can't find out what this weather app is called so that I can uninstall it.

[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
To begin with, download the app Package Names Viewer 2.0 ( 2023-04-03 ) from Play Store.

Then launch it and select the desired app from the list.

Now tap on that app’s name and you should get its associated package name.

Place the Odin executable in a folder, and the TWRP archive in the same folder. Then, open terminal in the folder (Or just use "cd"), then type in "./odin4", then you will see a bunch of text in there. To flash TWRP to your Samsung A21s, go to download mode, and then, on your computer. In terminal, type in "./odin4 -a TWRPV2.tar", and when your phone turns black, hold down the Power button and Volume up button, until you see a text with something like "This phone is not using Samsung's official software". Keep holding the button combinations until you see a yellow screen with "TEAM WIN RECOVERY PROJECT" text. And you are done. Make sure to not brick anything though.

I quite like this device but it seems MIUI doesn't allow any customization.

I can't change the shape of the icons or use icon packs.

Third party launchers don't work with gestures.

The Ui Colors don't change with different wallpapers.

Almost every theme in the theme app is ugly.

Is there any way to circumvent these restrictions? Using gestures with third party launchers?

If not I'll sadly return the phone and get a S23.

I have a 2005 Acura RL and just ordered the head unit (bottom ) you see in this picture.View attachment 5919739

I also have the stock nav unit you see in the picture but mine is burnt out and, of course, they want more than I paid for the car to replace it with circa 2003 museum piece technology which will get you lost in your own neighborhood.

What I'd like to do is put a screen in on top capable of displaying nav, a backup cam feed, and maybe something trivial like tpms.

On the bottom unit I want to run my audio, climate controls(it's programmed to do that, and maybe some OBD2 supported stuff, along with time and weather.

I'm thinking it would be nice if I got a tablet or a second cheap android head unit and somehow found a way to have both connect to my phone for input while only porting the specific functions I want for each. I would prefer the android head unit or tablet option so I can use an internet supported gps function, as I've found Garmins often tend to be outdated on maps, or they're not able to interpret traffic delays unless you blow more than 500 on one of them.

Any ideas?
[Android Auto General] Renate:
It's going to be a challenge getting all those parts to play nicely together.

You say that you just bought the bottom unit? Does it do Bluetooth or WiFi even?

Getting some tablet to fit nicely in the top will also be a squeeze.

The bottom is android 12 has Bluetooth and wifi. The top is big enough to fit a 7" tablet or specifically a Garmin drivesmart 65 height wise and just a bit wider than width wise...the playing together part is what I want...wondering if it's possible to slave a head unit to a second unit in order to parse functions between on the same phone data acct.

Hey everyone! Our company just signed up with AT&T and we got over 200 Tilts that I need to get ready to deploy. The reason we went with the Tilts is because we need WM 6.1, touch screen support (for signature capture), and GPS, and we ended up getting them all next to nothing rather than paying $1500 per device for something like a Symbol/Motorola MC70. Anyways, I am in need of advice... we're locking down close to all features of the phones except the ones we need via Microsoft's Mobile Device Manager (SCMDM) and I would like to get rid of ALL of AT&T's bloatware. I have noticed the soft-reset trick before the customization begins doesn't work on WM 6.1, once it boots back up it just starts the customization over again. I am not against flashing the device and putting a custom ROM on, overall here's what I'm looking for:

No bloatware

Faster operation

Optimized for battery life

Best ROM & Radio combo for a barebones deployment

Anyone have any recommendations for a solid deployment?

I appreciate everyone's time, thanks!

- Adam

EDIT: I was able to skip the bloatware, pressing the soft-reset button before the customization notification did the trick. Thanks for the heads up, Corpse and Hacker!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] hawk915402:
Just a thought!

Im sure youre going to get tons of responses. Find a rom that you like and ensure it has a lite version, these are usually the fastest most efficient roms. Go to spbsoftwarehouse.com, they have an excellent software that will make it easier for you to install the same options for multiple phones. Or you can look into Sashimi. Either way you would have to CID unlock every phone if you want to install rom and software/radio from the sd card. I personally would use the spb version, unlock one of the phones and use the spb clone program to clone all the phones.

Just a thought!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] knox203:
Hey Hawk, thanks for the response! So you're saying I can completely unlock one device, install a new ROM & Radio, clone it with that spb application, then restore it onto all the other devices right out of the box (without pre-unlocking them)? If so, that may just be the way to go!

- Adam
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Corpsegrinder:
The soft reset trick to remove the bloatware on wm 6.1 does work. I have a tilt with wm 6.1 w/o bloatware. Try soft resetting at different times. If I remember right, you reset as soon as you see the HTC Home screen.

Thanks Corpse, I'll have to play around with it a little more I guess!

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] thehacker010:
I just got the ATT Tilt last week. The soft-reset does work, but the timing is now different. Instead of doing it when you see the 3 second timer, you have to do it right when you see the home page, which is right BEFORE the 3 second warning screen appears.

3G, WiFi, and Bluetooth are the three major battery drainers. Installing something like Bandswitch would allow you to set those to deactivate after a certain period of inactivity.

Don't have much to say about radios though. It depends a lot on where you are and what is best for that area.

Phone model: Samsung A42 5G

My rooted phone is stuck in a bootloop after applying a module update.

I tried using adb shell to remove the modules

But adb tells me that

adb.exe: device unauthorized.
This adb server's $ADB_VENDOR_KEYS is not set
Try 'adb kill-server' if that seems wrong.
Otherwise check for a confirmation dialog on your device.

How to fix this?

Hello.

I have a bootloader locked Pixel 7 Pro with the April 2023 stock build.

I would like to downgrade to the October or November 2022 build.

Is there any way I can accomplish this?.

Thank you.

EDIT: Got an OTA build, but recovery is saying downgrades are not allowed.

Any other way?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] schmeggy929:
Unless you unlock the bootloader, you cannot downgrade using an OTA. How you tried to flash the full firmware? Why are you trying to downgrade to a firmware that far behind anyways?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] SirRhor:
Reason, because on Pixel 7 and 7 Pro, firmwares from October and November, deleting an app, you can carrier unlock them, so I am trying to do that. I did it already with a 7 Pro which had the October firmware, obviously, if there is a reset on the phone, it gets locked again, but at least it's something.

I tried using the flashme.bat script, PixelFlasher, used OTA and Full firmwares, Fastboot and Recovery, nothing.
