[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4] TechX1991:
Samsung claims its good up to 200,000 folds, but idk if they count the screen in that, or only the mechanism. One good thing those is shops that are sponsored by samsung to do official repairs are getting better at these and price of repair is going down. So if you do start to get a crease you can't ignore, it won't be too bad to repair it in the long run and get some good life out of it

Or if you really hate it but want a folding phone, look at the surface duo. its a spare daily of mine, no crease, and its a fun phone.

Buy Samsung care plus program and you'll be covered for up to 3 years so no need to worry any longer
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4] wpscully:
I've owned both a Flip3 and Flip4. I do not use a case, because I'm careful not to drop any phone. I keep my fingernails trimmed, because I know the screen is flexible. I don't take it to the beach or pool. I carry it in my front jeans pocket so I don't sit on it. I never let a child (or immature adult) touch the phone. It's an expensive phone, not a toy.

All that said, I've never seen a scratch of any type on the plastic screen protector. Nor has the screen broken. Pocket lint and dirt haven't been a problem for the hinge. So if you use the device with reasonable care, and avoid roughly poking at the screen (and in particular the crease) with anything but your fingertip, and keep it out of heavy rain, dirt or sand, you'll probably be fine.

However, the plastic screen protector, which Samsung says you must not remove, may delaminate from the glass. See this thread for a discussion of the problem and some photos. Samsung has fixed my two phones, one-time, each, under warranty. This is the only reason I don't recommend the phone generally. Knowing this limitation, I continue to choose the Flip phones because they are so much more comfortable to carry around, compared the regular glass slabs. If not for the Flip lines I'd be using a Nokia 6300. ;-)
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4] MarcinD2593:
Hello kindly,

I fully agree with the above post . Personally, I've been using Flip 4 since its launch .

Also , I don't have any case ... I only covered the outer part of the phone with foil (along with the outer display) .

I receive about 30 - 50 calls a day ... until today I have not the slightest traces of use ... the phone still looks like new .

I am convinced , that I will never go back to "flat pans" :) .

Best regards - Marcin .

Good morning guys, I heard that iPhone series 12 and 13 don't need a programmer to get the syscfg from the CPU, so the NAND no longer stores the SN of the wifi, bt and mac, so the NAND change is to remove and put the new one ? Just that?

And if these SN are no longer in the NAND, where did they end up? Only on the CPU? If so, is it no longer possible to change the wifi module?

[Android Head-Units] Ivancho77:
Hey guys, I've been playing with my device, trying to set up a booting logo (to be mazda instead of android) and the device asked me to update and restart, so it completely froze. No button works, nothing works it's just a screen with green lines, you can see the pictures below. Only the RST hole that I can poke, but it just brings me back to the same thing when it restarts. There's nothing else I can do, so I found a software to update it, I've tried many, with a USB, it brings me to the updating screen but it doesn't move, I've waited for hours with different softwares. What can I do? Is there a better one I can use?

Thank you

So I've got a JVC-KW240BT and looking to upgrade so maybe a 9inch screen. Just curious where to buy from? And any recommendations?

I've looked at t10-2 8 core 4gb64b from develuck

Kunfine -9inch. Octa-UIS8581A

Carlaoer- TS10-9inch 4G+64G QLED 720P AMP IC 7851

Hizpo- s5?

Im leaning towards these specs. 9inch with maybe 6gb+128gb could anyone recommend some reasonably priced ones? And where's the best place to buy?

[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] N00BOnAndroid:
Hello, people of the Xiaomi Mi 9.

I have owned this device for a while now and I have a problem that I would like to share with you.

A short time ago, I closed the phone's bootloader to make it like new... And it was a serious mistake.

I bought a new mobile and thought about using the old one as a backup.

This endorsement should have:

- Bootloader unlocked

- Root activated.

I must add that that device had a Mi account that belonged to me and I deleted it.

After doing that, and closing the bootloader, using the precious command of:

- fastboot oem unlock

Appears the next message:

[LG Velvet Questions & Answers] Andrex27:
Hello,

I have an LG Velvet 5G LM-G900EM and I'd like to swap my OS version from European version to Italian version, but I haven't found any documentation about this operation nor the original firmware image to restore the phone in case something goes wrong during the process.

I'm doing this because I got the phone with android 11 and now in Italy every operator has released android 13, but my phone says (since i bought it) that there is no update available.

So I got suspicious and I decided to dig a bit and try to find out why.

What i immediately noted is that the SW version of my phone indicates V20d-EUR-XX, and the final XX is litterally what it is shown in the phone and to me it seemed a bit wired.

Out of curiosity I searched the original firmware image with mu SW version online, but I couldn't find it anywhere.

So I tried to contact LG support, and they said that my phone is an european version and it does not get updates like the local versions, but they said also that they don't know when the updates will be released for my phone.

In the end I searched a bit more on the internet and wrote in some forums, but no one seems to have an issue like mine.

I hope someone can give me some informations about this and maybe confirm or not if my firmware is indeed a bit wired.

Thanks in advance.

Bro this shows Always European Because Italy comes in European Union.View attachment 5942941
[LG Velvet Questions & Answers] Andrex27:
Yeah, but from what i saw searching officials firmwares online, italian versions are different, it should be ITC for carrier- free phones, TIM for TIM operator and so on, but maybe i'm wrong on this.

However LG suooprt confirmed, checking the IMEI, that this phone it is not an italian version, but it is an European version, but I couldn't find an European firmware online.

They also couldn't say more about when or even if my phone will be updated.

I also forgot to mention that i tried to check updates with LG Bridge on my PC, but it says it cannot retrive software informations from the phone, could it be LG bridge that is broken?

I am having a hard time enabling call recording on this phone. For my G990B2 there seems to be no firmware with XID or other countries that I used on my S20 FE last year.

I just tried using Samkey to change my CSC to XID and INS. Both did not work. After reboot it was still on EUX. According to Samkey support the G990B2 cannot be changed to INS. I have asked which CSC I can use on that phone for call recording. But so far no reply.

Anyone that was able to fix this?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 FE] oli231:
maybe SEK. Ukraine
[Samsung Galaxy S21 FE] Shuhan44:
INS has an Exynos processor, whereas your G990B2 has Snapdragon. That's why you cannot change from EUX to INS.

Don't use Samkey. Download SamFw tool (latest version 4.7.1) that's far better and also free. download link: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=10620683726822055958

And for G990B2, call recording option is only available in Ukraine (SEK) csc. I am using it; future OTA updates are also available without any issues.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 FE] travelerabbey:
hello, my s21 fe (snapdragon)'s model no is g990u2, can I change csc to enable call recording?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 FE] osssinator:
on SEK currently, do You have gpay working?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 FE] ozzyboy:
For call recordig u need to change only CSC, not all firmware... Use your regional frimware but change CSC with SamFw Tool and stay on that CSC. In this way Gpay will work, but you cannot get features upddate from OTA. But when you hear there is a new update in market, change again with SamFw Tool CSC to original, get update from OTA, then change CSC for native call recording...

This is the way how to benefit for Gpay and native calls recording.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 FE] osssinator:
there is ins for g990b2 https://samfw.com/firmware/SM-G990B2 , but now is the same as SEK, not EUX

[Introductions] beardwhiskers:
I thought I would register on this forum and thank the contributors. Thanks!

I spent 3 days reading dozens of posts on how to convert my old Lumia 521 Windows 8.1 phone (aka Fame) to Android 7.1 Nougat using Lineage 14.1 OS distribution. Sam's 33 minute how-to video was very helpful.

I had no difficulty with the Windows Phone Internals hacking software to unlock my bootloader. When running the LK installer in Fastboot, it was mostly successful, except for the part where the filesystems are formatted (cache, data, and system).

As a result, when I ADB sideloaded Lineage 14.1 OS (after installing drivers for ADB to work on my Windows 10 PC), it wasn't fully successful. Upon Android system startup, I got a message that decryption was unsuccessful, after a login password step.

After trying several things, I discovered another XDA post saying that if this happens, use the Format feature in the TWRP recovery tool. This finally unencrypted the filesystem and formatted successfully. I then went back to ADB sideload and reflashed the Lineage 14.1 OS successfully.

On my phone, the following work: WiFi, internet browsing, email, file management, clock features, microSD card mounting, FM radio, MP3 music playback, headphones, autorotate, photo viewing, and power management.

What doesn't work (as expected): Camera, SIM card support, voice calls, and text messaging.

I haven't tested Bluetooth yet, but it's supposed to work, as well. I used a microSD card to transfer 1 GB of music files and a few photos over to the internal filesystem.

The Lineage 14.1 OS is normally very stable. When I installed F-Droid app, the Update Repository feature uses enough resources to crash just before completion. But I can access F-Droid website with the browser and download apps just fine.

It's great to be able to repurpose my old Lumia phone and have some fun with it. Thanks again to all of the contributors who put in countless hours on developing all of the firmware hacks and ROM.

Back in the late 1990s and early 2000s, I used to dabble in Linux OS installs on some desktop PCs. I remember how time consuming that was, with many iterations needed to compile an OS kernel that handled all of the rudimentary OS features. So, this little phone repurposing project was a small reminder of those good old days! :)

Canadian SM-G950W Snapdragon Samsung S8 on Android 9 user here.

I've been reading a lot trying to figure out what I can do with regards to rooting & installing custom ROM. But the available info is confusing and contradicting.

Could anyone please answer my questions below?

1. Can I root S8 that is running Android 9?

I've tried naively to flash CF-Auto-Root with Odin , but got an error.

2. Knowing that bootloader is locked I thought I could downgrade to Android 7 and unlock the bootloader

Paid for SAMMOBILE firmware, but Odin failed to flash Android 7. Then I read somewhere that you CAN NOT downgrade Samsung phones. Is that the case?

3. What is the roadmap for flashing custom kernel, ROM and rooting SM-G950W Snapdragon Samsung S8 on Android 9?

At the end of my wits here... Thank you in advance!
