[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fidalgos:
My version is 1.4 and if you remember... I say don't have any kind of problems with Opera...(post #135) and you say to me ...if you don't have problems no need to upgrade to v.1.5... and I stay in 1.4 until now.

I don't install sdkcerts because is in ROM in 1.4 and... yesterday is the first time with problem in Opera like I explain in my last post. I don't know what is 'sdkcerts' and what applications have this inside... a few posts later I enumerate (post #144) *** I have already the WLMessenger and work... ALL WORK last versions... CorePlayer, Audio Notes Touch, Resco Explorer, Fring for mobile, Photo Viewer Pro, Pocket Informant, Resco Backup, Skype (my version), Spb Traveler, Weather Database 1.2, WLM and T9 Input 14 Languages...)***

...this is all apps I install until today... If I upgrade to 1.7 and the apps I enumerate... have the 'sdkcerts' :confused: perhaps I have problems because my ignorance of 'sdkcerts'.

Best wishes to you @Pzucchel and to all a HAPPY NEW YEAR!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Matterhorn:
Hi Pzucchel,

I tried and liked your ROM. The idea of allowing users to add applications to their taste is great. I've been hoping for a ROM like that for a long time. Updating software is a snap with no need to always change the ROM.

I did run into some problems with IE6. I couldn't get it to zoom very close at all, which is fine if you have eyes like a microscope :). I function quite well without glasses until I have very small text...so I need to zoom. I'm sure I'm not the only one with this problem. I tried to install PIEplus, which I've used for years, but it wouldn't install...so that's out. It gives "Can not get window handle from Browser interface" error, then it breaks IE6. All is ok after uninstalling PIEplus. Of course the incompatibility is the fault of PIE plus. Anyway, I tried the rom from Laurentius26 which also has IE6 and had the same behavior with zooming and incompatibility with PIEplus. I guess I'll go to the asian 1.19 rom until there is a zooming IE6.

Thanks for your work and Happy New Year!

Hi Pzucchel,

your ROM is excellent! LagunaDub theme is superb and your NEW LITHEAVY CONCEPT is perfect, great choice.

I hope to see major improvements in extra softwares: up-to-date browsers plug-in support (like flash), and why don't you include well known additional packages like Skype into your distribution?

Thanks in advance for your efforts!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] pzucchel:
Hi Fidalgos, as i said if you don't have problems with opera don't upgrade, but if you have problems with Opera, then you should upgrade. I was quite surprised you didn't have it since i had it!

...forget about sdkcerts since it was installed inside the ROM up to 1.14 included and it has been removed from 1.15.

Yours is a perfect case. If you spend 3 minutes in editing the SDConfig.txt of 1.17, you will build your own perfectly customized ROM with your favourite apps!

Happy new year to you too, feliz año nuevo!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] pzucchel:
I prefer fring, if you prefer skype just put it in the SDconfig.txt before upgrading to v1.17 and here you go!

...otherwise, i will oblige you in sticking with a given skype version: beta? latest? lite? why not fring?

Like this, you can install skype, deinstall skype, install fring, and customize it to your taste.

My conclusion: whoever is able to flash a ROM is "literate enough" to customize an SDConfig.txt....then, why do you need somebody else choosing the apps for you?

Happy new year,
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] pzucchel:
Ciao Matterhorn!

in fact, the PIE used here comes from Laurentius26. It is known that PIE is missing zoom, and my ROM are based on the asian ROM 1.19 WWE:

RUU_BlackStone_HKCSL_WWE_1.19.831.0_Radio_52.49a.25.26_1.09.25.14_Ship.exe

Overall, PIE looks nice but it is still work in progress...not much we can do about it! PiePlus is probably simply incompatible....
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fidalgos:
:D feliz año nuevo... is in Spanish, two countries two languages, in Portuguese is: feliz ano novo :D

Ok dear Pzucchel, I return from the old year and I read your message, so... I go flash with 1.7 and... on the last year I less already the SDconfig.txt prepared with all apps I want.:)

Now... Let's Gooooo:p
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] pzucchel:

* NETCF3.5 as default compact framework installed

* Schaps advanced configuration tools

I'am now with 1.7 and I reformulate de SDconfig.txt for me... but I'am :confused: because I don't know what apps

is not installed in 1.7

in upper list :) per example: Mortscript, NCF3.5,... because I dont see any in programs or settings.

my SDconfig.txt (I change ROM for Cabs directory) and I put the file in root of Storage Card and I run the SDconfigtool but allways search for all my cabs in Storage Card (ignore my list)... I move the sdconfig.txt to \Cabs but is the same... search all my cabs in SCard. Maybe dont need the txt, eheheh.

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllesMeins:
I bought a Fire HD10 (7th generation) back in 2019 and immediately debloated it by removing most of the Amazon-Stuff. The device has been a good companion since then and is still doing fine on the hardware-side. But recently I've been running into more and more problems with software that wouldn't run anymore (either because of a to low Android version or crash immediately at startup). For example I'm having a really hard time finding a browser that would still run on it.

I use it only for basic taks like web-browsing, running a few simple apps and occasionally watching some (SD-)Videos, so in theory it should still be fine and I don't like the idea of replacing perfectly good hardware. Do you have any tipps what I could do to prolong its life a bit more? Are there any lightweight Android-Versions that are installable on a Fire-Tablet or any other steps I could take to squeeze a few more years out of it before needing to buy a new one?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] mitomon:
Hello,

I just received a pixel 7 pro, second hand.

I'm totally paranoid, and want reinstall a new rom , like a new phone.

What should I do ? install beta then roll back to normal rom ?

I don't have any idea about it, of course i guess there lot of tutorials, but i need a direction.

The phone is not rooted or unlocked.

thanks for your help
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] krakout:
What exactly do you want to achieve that is not done by a factory reset?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] mitomon:
I'm afraid that the phone is hacked or something like it, I want to reinstall the stock rom, not to reset the phone, to be 100% sure the phone is clean.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] sawdoctor:
You could download the latest official ota and flash it with Android tools or pixelflasher and select wipe. That will put you on the latest official firmware with everything wiped and back to stock
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] mitomon:
I don't want a partial download ota , i want a full download that will wipe everything, if there a tuto how to do it...

thanks for helping, I appreciate it :)
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Norrnäs:
I'll chime in here, as I am in almost the same situation. I love LineageOS, but I bought my previous mobile phone with LOS installed. Now I am getting the Pixel 7Pro and I would be so happy with LOS. Where would I get assistance, so I do not brick a new Phone and get some answers to practical questions?

New here after several years of almost no activity.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] krakout:
Do it with Pixel Flasher and select wipe.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] sawdoctor:
The ota aren't partial downloads they are a full file it's just safer to flash an it's that's all. If you flash an ota and god forbid anything goes wrong (extremely unlikely) you will still be able to boot the other partition
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] mitomon:
ok, what the difference between : OTA vs Pixel factory firmware ? just to revive my memory , to be sure in 100%, cause i really need a CLEAN os.

Thanks
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] sawdoctor:
They are both factory firmware just the pixel has 2 slots a and b so to make things easier an ota flashes to the inactive slot. This is how it was explained to me (pixelflasher is your best friend on pixels)

https://xdaforums.com/t/pixelflasher-for-google-fold-support-thread.4602009/post-88739711
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] mitomon:
thanks, but what happening to one of the slots that not in use? someone can access it? their stuff there?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] krakout:
Seriously: Pixel Flasher. It allows you to flash both slots or change active one.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] sawdoctor:
I suppose anything is possible but it's not anything I've ever heard of happening. But like previously posted if you are really that worried flash both slots with wipe.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] bobnot:
If your that worried about it look into GrapheneOS haha

With Pegasus they just need a phone number and it's a not persistent code so wiping and rebooting just slows them down.

Yes you can relock the bootloader after flashing stock firmware and a few custom ones if it explicitly says you can.

[Google Pixel 7 Pro] simplepinoi177:
If you want a completely fresh install of the stock ROM, I suggest going into Developer Mode and tick "OEM unlocking", go to the Android/Google's official Android Flash Tool and "install" the latest firmware -- doing it this way will unlock the bootloader for you -- then download the latest Full OTA Image (it has to be the Full OTA image instead of the Full Factory as Full OTA image can be flashed to both slots) and use badabing2003's PixelFlasher (as previously discussed/shown before) to flash the image to both slots, then go back to the Android Flash Tool and "install" the latest firmware once more but this time make sure to check the option to "lock bootloader".

After doing all of this, there's no way a "hacker" could still have anything installed on your device; the only way would be for it to be embedded into the hardware -- and at that point no amount of "setup a new ROM" or keeping the current device would escape that....

But if you want to just make it easier for you to unlock the bootloader to flash a custom ROM that was discussed previously in this thread, you can just do the first step of using Android Flash Tool (be sure that "OEM unlocking" is ticked though or it can't do it for you) and it will unlock the bootloader and you can continue to do steps to flash what custom ROM you choose....

Hope this helps!
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] mitomon:
Hello,

Thanks for your help.

so, the real problem was that my phone wasn't unlocked, so I've unlocked it, then installed an "old" 13 firmware Os build then reinstall the latest in the same way with wipe option, all seem to be new.

the pixel tool is great, but i didn't successes to unlock with it, i did it manually.

Thanks for your help again :)
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] d3viou5:
Which customs can you re-lock the bootloader on?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] bobnot:
GrapheneOS 😀
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] simplepinoi177:
you can lock the bootloader after flashing a custom ROM? I always thought that would brick a Pixel (hard brick if the "OEM unlocking" is messed with while locking).....
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Lughnasadh:
Depends on the rom.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] simplepinoi177:
Fascinating! I always thought it was a big NO-NO...! Like, so many countless stories of Pixel users hard-bricking their Pixels because they relocked the bootloader after coming off of a custom ROM and they did it wrong (also they'd untick the "OEM unlocking" which made it a hard-brick vs. just in a very bad situation)...

Fascinating to learn/know that there are some instances where it is safe to do so...

More than likely, the device does not have a separate recovery (a or b) partition.

Instead recovery is included in the boot image.

From the Docs..

"Devices that support A/B (seamless) updates should use recovery as boot instead of a separate recovery partition (for details, see Implementing A/B Updates)."

As for custom recovery(s), take a look at how to install (official) TWRP on a few different A/B devices.

[General Questions and Answers] tandyuk:
Hi Everyone,

Posting here as I think the gist of this solution would be relevant to most samsung/android phones (ignoring specific rom versions etc)

Recently my better halfs, S20FE decided to cook itself (nearly melted), and subsequently got stuck in a boot loop, and hasnt worked since.

I was unable to boot the phone normally at all, and was also unable to get into recovery mode, after MANY attempts.

I have tried to reflash the stock firmware that it was running, however this fails part-way through the process.

It also gets extremely hot if left connnected to a mains charger for any length of time, though the charge indicator doesnt suggest it is actually charging *at all*.

My question, is what options do I have to try and recover any data from the userdata partition on her phone?

Does anyone have an "idiots guide" to data recovery with TWRP (or similar)?

The phone will *only* go into download mode atm, but tools like odin/heimdall etc I cant find any ways to actually download a partition, rather than just uploading to the phone.

I suspect the battery is knackered, and that the heat may have caused physical damage to the flash/emmc/etc, so am after advice on the best way to proceed to maximise chances of actually getting any data off the phone before it dies completely (or catches fire!!).

Thanks in advance :)

[Specifics]

Galaxy S20FE 128GB, G780F, Exynos chip.

Android 13, latest version

G780F_BTU_G780FXXUDFWH5 is the specific firmware

I also have an identical working model of this phone (mine!) if its of any help.

This is an app to add more functionality to the power off button on our devices!

Its nothing new.. a few other applications like this can be found in the forum but i wanted to write my own :)

I was told this works on Touch Pro (so probably on Diamond too), Xperia1 and MAX 4G. So It must be compatible with VGA & WVGA devices!

Test it and let me know!

ERROR FIX NOTE:

It appears that there is a confilct with MobileMagic app.

so make sure if you are using MobileMagic go to Buttons tab

click on Power button (Long), Select from the drop down box Start application and assign it to Touch HD PowerOFF.exe

soft reset and you are done!

Shutdown fix temp solution:

Now shutdown works only it prompts you for confirmation.. i'll try to find

a workaround later! for now the app is usable once more!
