Disconnect the LCD, USB, Battery flex and Antenna cable from the motherboard.

View attachment 6003611

Take apart the motherboard and then cut the small piece of metal protecting to see the test point

hidden below it.

View attachment 6003613 View attachment 6003615

You can then see the test point as shown below

View attachment 6003617

Apply some solder flux to the test point and then solder a thin coated copper wire on the test point.

Apply some solder on the other end of the copper wire so that it can be used to short it with the ground.

Now put back the motherboard into the phone carrefully keeping the copper wire outside the phone safe and intact.

View attachment 6003619

Now hold the other soldered end of the coated copper wire with a tweezer and short to the ground and then plug the USB cable

and then open lib usb filter software and configure MTK drivers.

Setup the MTK Client on your PC. Follow this github tutorial.

If you get any errors while using mtk client I will help you unlock your phone's

bootloader using another tool I have but make sure to follow the tutorial that

has to be used to enable BROM mode on your phone.

Use the following commands to unlock the bootloader.

Open a command prompt window in mtk client folder.

Now type the following commands in MTK client.

1.Erase metadata and userdata (and md_udc if existing):

python mtk e metadata,userdata,md_udc

2. python mtk da seccfg unlock

3. Reboot the phone:

python mtk reset

Turn on the device.

[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] ZG_DEV:
Nice guide, but as there's BROM mode , why disassimble the phone?
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] mvikrant97:
To enable BROM mode.
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] ZG_DEV:
Bruh :)
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] mvikrant97:
Pretty hectic process on certain phones.
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] ZG_DEV:
brom mode works with me without disassembling the phone ;)
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] Glitch:
why teardown of phone?
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] ZG_DEV:
as @mvikrant97 said, to enable brom mode :)
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] mvikrant97:
Nokia G10 and G20 has to be disassembled for BROM mode.
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] ZG_DEV:
okay

Nice to see that !

Also in 10 seconds only ?! WOW
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] mvikrant97:
Yes. Unlocked for user named

simcraftlol​
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] AnyDroid:
Does this works for Nokia G22?
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] mvikrant97:
No it will not work on Nokia G22 as it have Unisoc T606 chipset.

You need to find a method that works on Unisoc chipset.
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] kpyhere:
Thanks @mvikrant97 for the help in bringing my phone back to live.

Highly experienced user with a lot of knowledge. Would highly recommend
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] mvikrant97:
Your phone was a Nokia 2.4 TA-1270.

I'm glad that it works now. Thankyou for your feedback.
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] SALinuxDev2:
Is it possible to do this process in Linux?
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] mvikrant97:
Yes but with Linux I cannot guide you because I don't have Linux.
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] weskerty:
I have made a post asking about how to return to A11.

Do you know about If unlocking the bootloader and using "FlashTools" can downgrade to A11?

Nokia G20 TA-1347

Product: Ronin_00WW

Board: MT6765

Build.DEVICE: RNN_sprout
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] mvikrant97:
To downgrade you can do it using mtk client.

To make it work you will have to disassemble the phone if you have already updated the phone to Android 13.
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] weskerty:
Many thanks to mvikrant97

I manage to downgrade my Nokia G20 to A11

In my case the phone had to be on battery for the procedure.
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] weskerty:
The Tutorial Worked Perfectly using the --preloader

If I want to install magisk, can I follow the mtkclient tutorial?

""Flash magisk-patched boot and empty vbmeta

python mtk w boot,vbmeta boot.patched,vbmeta.img.empty""
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] mvikrant97:
Yes please do it correctly.

Backup the firmware first before doing it.
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] weskerty:
Although the mtkclient tutorial is useless since there is no boot or vbmeta partition. There are several with different names.
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] mvikrant97:
Use mtk client mod version.

Bootloader unlock and root for Nokia 2.2, Nokia 2.3, Nokia C2 Tava and Nokia C2 Tennen.

What version of Android is your phone running?
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] cyrax157:
hi,

don´t know for sure. Got that phone from a friend. The device doesn´t boot and is looping through the anti rollback.....

My friend keeps his devices always up to date, so we can assume that it has the latest firmware (Android 14).
[Nokia G10 / G20 / G21] mvikrant97:
Android 14 was not released for this device it shall be Android 13.

I can fix that device but to boot the device to BROM mode it has to be disassembled.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] petey23@hotmail.co.uk:
Hi everyone, I am new to this topic and have only spent more time reading some of the topics relating to Hard-SPL, Roms etc since I have a had an issue with a recent upgrade of ROM supplied via Vodafone.

I have upgraded from the shipped ROM version 1.37 to 1.97, since the upgrade i was impressed with the slight changes that Vodafone had made to the screen response, and dialer slider ... BUT... wasn't impressed with the fact I am now being charged to access Windows Live, and Hotmail.

I used to be able to sit at home and access my wireless and just check my mail, since the upgrade being connected to my wireless it still connects via GPRS.

I have spoken to Vodafone and expressed my dissappointment, and they did lower my Data plan, but still it doesn't resolve the issue that i had a service which changed without notification.

They asked me to just go by my usual usage under the GPRS for the next five days just to review my usage and see how much of an impact this would make, works fine under GPRS, just a bit miffed now I can't use a feature on my phone, anyway, I went back to vodafone after 5 days and told them that I hadn't been able to download anything through my GPRS i.e attachments on emails.

I am looking to try and get this back to normal with my connections, Vodafone told me to think about doing a HARD-SPL on my phone, to check the version and to upgrade it to my phone... I have read and read and read... Now I have guides on how to do it and understood what it is for I am now confused which version I should be going for and Which ROM, I'm very worried to 'brick' my Diamond, it's the best device I have had.

BTW... Vodafone said doing this wouldn't void my warranty... that has to be a lie!!?

So I was wondering if anybody could help me to find a Hard-SPL version, ROM, Radio version that I require to upgrade my Handset I would be most greatful.

I checked the information from re-booting my phone with the down volume button pressed and dispalys the following:

DIAM100 64M

SPL-1.97.0000

Many Thanks
[Xiaomi Poco F4 (Munch) / Redmi K40S] Port007:
Hi, so I was wondering why we still don't have a single ROM with functional Dolby Vision. I'm not demanding; I'm just wondering why it's not possible to get it working on a custom ROM (not talking about Dolby Atmos, that's a completely different thing).

DoVi content (profile 8) looks very good on this panel with vibrant+ cool temp, and it's the only reason why I'm still stuck on laggy MIUI garbage.
[Xiaomi Poco F4 (Munch) / Redmi K40S] x3r0.13urn:
The reason I could think of: it's proprietary and relies heavily in miui framework and needs some reworks on the kernel side, which once again it's not available widely.

I believe Dolby Atmos implementation in custom rom comes from ports, mostly Moto (newer) or older Oneplus (before they switched to ColorOS base) mainly because their UI is still close to AOSP. Perhaps that is the main reason.
[Xiaomi Poco F4 (Munch) / Redmi K40S] ad1tyx666:
it's due to the dolby vision blobs not being there in miui builds for munch
[Xiaomi Poco F4 (Munch) / Redmi K40S] Port007:
but how is it even possible? if some device supports dovi then it means its firmware must have blobs for it, right?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] UrZeal_Bowen:
Hi,

New here but have read a lot of posts. But now I'm after help please.

Picked up a watch 4 with softwares issues. The Bluetooth on the watch won't activate and the last firmware update it received was January 2023. If I try to update the firmware from the phone (can't connect to galaxy wear app - no BT activation on watch for unknown reason) the registration fails.

I've tried all the usual factory reset/reboot stuff. Have even tried to flash R880 firmware, but it failed (only had the AP to use via netOdin, not sure if that's correct?)

I'm thinking to try and flash any version of R885f firmware, just to get it to start again and update correctly. Kinda feels like an update was interrupted, just a guess.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Comments? Or better yet, firmware for the R885F model currently registered to UK (that's also where I am). Is it possible the region is selected incorrectly at the start? Works switching regions after a reset help the software update?

Is it possible to get a different model OS to flash? Like the r900?

Currently-

Software version: R885FXXU1GWA3 / SM-R885FZSABTU

IMEI: 353584531709232

Sorry for the long post. Try not to get too technical with the responses, I'm surface level good 😅

Thanks in advance.

[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] hannageorge2571:
Hello,

Hope can someone help

I have HUAWEI P8 MAX suddenly the touch screen does not work at all

And when long press the power button the phone restarts and not power off

Power button and volume buttons work normal

Battery is normal and charge ok

I have bought a new LCD touch screen and still same problem

Any ideas or solutions

Thank you
[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] GalaxyA325G:
One option is to mirror the device onto your PC and see if that allows you to manipulate the screen using the PC keyboard & mouse & monitor...

For Windows, you can use scrcpy freeware to mirror the device.

View attachment 6003785Vysor freeware works on Windows and the Mac.

View attachment 6003789

Another option is to buy a twenty-five dollar device which allows you to plug the phone into one end and a keyboard and monitor into the other end (no computer needed).
[Touch HD General] pzucchel:
Hi to all,

i anticipate a possible thread asking for a WHITE touch HD (white is better, since the iphone is white so...) to comment and ask your opinion about gyrator/gsen or similar solutions.

Apart from the fact that the iphone has it, i find all these gravity-oriented GUIs terribly cumbersome....the last thing i want to do is to extract my telephone from my pocket and start wondering why the buttons are on the right...sorry on the left....no sorry on the bottom....ah, they were on the top! the touch HD being very symmetric and elegant, should have a consistent gui orientation: VERTICAL!

...why a thread?

I'd like to know how you use gyrator/gsen and for which purpose.

Personally, for applications like navigon which have a preferred orientation i have 2 mortscript lines that makes it turn PREDICTABLY to the right direction...
[Touch HD General] cwogan:
The only thing I want GSEN/Gyrator for is TomTom Navigator, otherwise I disable it as it just gets in the way when txting, phoning etc.

One thing that bugs me (not Gsen or Gyrator but "gyro" related) is the speed at which Album takes to load a picture and realise I am moving my phone, from touch flow, click on a picture then tun my phone, sometimes I wait more than 20 seconds for an image to rotate, crap when you are trying to show your friends pictures.

Waiting for the Class 6 16GB microsd card to be released in January as hoping its just the slow memory card that came with the touch causing my annoyance with Album
[Touch HD General] dh-paule:
I am using gyrator to switch the HD

lay down face up : mobile shell - now screen will be shown

lay down face down: turn off and lock the HD

from portrait to landscape : pick up a call

from portrait to reverse landscape : block a call
[Touch HD General] sproxy:
There should be an option for Acrobat or other ebook readers. Landscape mode, full screen with 250% -300% zoom and reflow makes it perfect for reading. I only use that for book reading. I also prefer to disable auto start with windows and only launch the application before reading a book and switch it off afterwards.
[Touch HD General] Mike fait nimps:
I am using gyrator only for : GPS and Opera , as it is more comfortable for me to wathc a screen in landscape for these apps. And not using it for all other apps :D
[Touch HD General] Cheesy Dave:
Hi,

I used both Gsen and gyrator and found gyrator to be more stable.

However, I have now mapped (using the excellent AEBPlus) the OK / Back button to rotate the screen on double press.

This is working much better for my personal needs as I did not need the auto rotate often enough to justify gyrator.

Regards, D
[Touch HD General] shagratt:
Gyrator for:

face down with stylus in: turn off

face down with stylus out: turn off only screen (pda still on, I use this for gps navigation with garmin xt)
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] sosimple:
Gsmarena gives lower battery life to fold 5 than fold 4. It looks the best comparison because it's the same test with new battery and not that youtube reviews which comparing a phone with new battery with one which is 1 years old..

How is that when new soc is better?

What is your opinion? Is this true or after some updates the picture has changed?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] Antyhaker:
IMO battery life is the same.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] GoBears:
I think my F5 battery is considerably better than my 4.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] SlakWReX:
This is my best cycle so far.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] Android-Desire:
I can go the hole day and have 30% or more juice left, My s20 s22 s23 All ultras cant last hole day, i dont have any other fold devices but I love his device, best battery life in 8 years for any of my devices
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] sosimple:
This looks very good. Was it more in big screen or in small? 70/30?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] cpufrost:
Yes it is. Never really had battery issues with any of my folds. Even the 3 was decent.

But I debloat to close to extreme level and use no socials except youtube via revanced.

What seems to be better than any of my previous Samsung phones is idle battery drain. It's close to God territory (iPhone) IME.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] SebaRoz:
With me also better at 5 than at 4 :)
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] sosimple:
I ordered it.. In a month, when I'll get it, I'll found out..
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] force70:
Its night and day between my 4 and 5, im easily getting another 1.5-2hrs SOT. my fold 5 comes off the charger at 4am and goes back on at 9pm i would have had to charge my 4 at least once or twice during the day.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] SlakWReX:
I would say 70/30 is accurate. I attached a screenshot of what my final SOT was that cycle. Also attached some of the routines I using. Hope it helps.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] sosimple:
Thanks! Very clever. I haven't used samsung routines ever, as i use tasker. After this, i think I'll give it a shot. Samsung routines looks like they can do some useful things which aren't so easy with Tasker..
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] stavrone07:
I was trying to figure out what's going on with my new Fold5 as battery drained really fast to me (more than 20% overnight).

I made a full factory reset and started installing apps step-by-step on my new Fold 5 and previous Fold 2. Finally I noticed that after logging in Instagram and Messenger battery started to drain. I live in Russia so we have these services blocked (VPN needed).

But there is another noticable thing. As I got august Google security patch I saw that Google Play Services requires my location each 3-5 minutes (screenshot attached)

I guess there must be a bug in play services again.

BTW my Fold5 lives 3-4 hours SOT on Wi-Fi on a rare usage. I guess without Meta it's going to live much better :)
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] 94b20gsr:
Seeing 8hrs SOT with 95% inner screen isn't abnormal here. Typically charge every other day as well. Fold 5 has been a noticeable improvement over the 4 which was already good.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] sosimple:
I'm still waiting for fold 5 to arrive, my first foldable. I have seen many many reviews in YouTube and first time i see so much different results. There are videos which claims that it have amazing battery. Some say 7-8 hours, and some others 4 hours.. First time i see so different results for a phone.

I even see a review claiming that pixel fold have more sot than fold 5, although most review say pixel fold battery is the worst..

:)

Anyway when i got it I'll know but its very strange to see so different results..
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] Antyhaker:
Because people are different? Different use cases etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] sosimple:
No. I watch video many years for all phones I'm interested to buy, never show this. Reviews say the exactly opposite of others. So different opinions never seen for any other phone. It's very obvious that some reviews are paid.

Anyway having view countless videos and read many forums etc, i have no clue about the battery of this phone. I'm in the same position i was before reading anything..

:)

Its almost sure that pixel fold has the worst sot because of bad soc. 95% of reviews, people who have it, etc say it. But there are video (more than one) which say that it has better battery than fold 5...

There are 3 videos testing sot between fold 5 and s23 ultra and give 1 more hour battery to s23 ultra. It's strange that all 3 videos gives the same results. But if you read the comments of people having both phones, they say this is bul****, s23 ultra has 2-3 hours more sot..
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] Antyhaker:
Ehh, seriously? As I said before "Because people are different? Different use cases etc.".
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] V0latyle:
Let's cool it, people. Be polite, be professional, be courteous.

Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] sosimple:
You obviously don't understand what i write. I repeat, this doesn't happen to any other phone., so it's not "different use cases", because different use cases is standard to every phone, but never happened what i describe.

How do you explain, gsmarena tested sot in the big screen and in the small, and count the same 95 and 96 hours sot .. In the same exactly test, use case was EXACTLY the same. Is it logical?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] Antyhaker:
I don't know what "reviews" did you see, but it happens ALWAYS. It's related to Samsung / Huawei / Xiaomi / Apple / etc. phones. It's totally normal.
