[Xiaomi 12T Pro / Redmi K50 Ultra] chocolote4444:
The best way to unbrick your 12T phone is to use Emergency Download Mode feature. Find your stock firmware and download the MiFlash tool. You'll also need the edl qcom drivers for windows so it'll recognize your phone in edl mode.

As for recovering your data, you might be out of luck on that. What apps did you uninstall that triggered the bootlooop?
[Xiaomi 12T Pro / Redmi K50 Ultra] Lomoto344:
I have uninstalled a lot of apps tbh. but it worked the last 2-3 reboots so i dont know what is the problem. My Phone let me to wipe all data but i dont want to wipe everything and mi flash shows me that my device is locked...
[Xiaomi 12T Pro / Redmi K50 Ultra] chocolote4444:
Were you rooted when this had happened?
[Xiaomi 12T Pro / Redmi K50 Ultra] NOSS8:
If you have deleted system apps, doing a wipe data will not change anything, it seems to me that there is the possibility of re-downloading the rom from the recovery.

I need help. Last Saturday Iput my POCO F5 to film my drive to home, but at the end of the trip, when i go see, it only made a video of about two and a half minutes and I wanted to have the complete video of the trip in the case about 20 minutes. is there any setting to shoot as long as i want?

Hi

I've been trying to setup an IMAP account on the built in email. But can't seem to connect to it, it says:

"Cannot connect to the incoming mail server. Be certain that your login information is correct, then try again to send and receive email"

But I'm definitely sure all email account info is correct.

Wierd thing is, when I go back to the email Accounts setup, I notice the password there rather than ******* 7 characters long password it is like ********************** 20 characters long. I've tried changing back to the real password, but still don't work and if I check the Accounts setup again, the password, again shows really long like ***********************

I've tried accessing my IMAP email account through the internet on the phone via Opera, and that's working OK.

Any ideas?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] grahamkdt:
Mmmm...

Can't really help you with your settings, but I can answer one question for you. The masked password is always a long string of ****'s. This is so no one can guess the actual number of characters in your password.

I've never set up an IMAP account, as I use POP3. I had an issue years ago when I was first trying to figure out how to set email up on these things, but I'd just got the incoming pop address wrong. I went on the internet and Googled the proper settings. Sorry I can't be of any more help :o
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] defaria:
During the email set up there is a link for Advanced Server Settings. There there are settings for Require SSL for Incoming/Outgoing email. You might try toggling those. It depends on the IMAP server setup. Which IMAP server are you trying to connect to? I run my own IMAP server. The difference between IMAP and IMAPS (i.e. with SSL) is that you connect on a different port. If your IMAP server only accepts IMAPS then it's listening on one port but you're asking on another.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] hamish909:
I've noticed that the email doesn't work when using activesync for network, but it's fine if using WiFi for example.

Actually, the problem is probably Activesync itself, as I have network problems with it... Activesync seems unable to remember proxy settings, its like it works after the initial setup , for a few minutes, then any proxies that were setup there are gone a few minutes later, just dissappears and consequently the network won't work anymore until I manually set it up again

[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Daniel6745:
Download xiaomi eu rom, extract it

then copy the logo.img file

extract the logo.zip file you downloaded (one of the 3)

delete the modded logo.img

paste the original one back in

compress them into a zip file again

then you can sideload it with ADB or flash with sd/OTG

and then you will be greeted with your standard POCO logo.

[Galaxy S6 Active] xoxosendhelp:
Was working fine up until a week ago. The Google play store updates itself over wi-fi and then ceases to function. The dreaded "Google Play Store has stopped" error message occurs and then you basically have to uninstall updates to the play store, to the nub version, in order to update any software. Problem now is my updated apps are all posing the same error message. Unfortunately ____ has stopped. Firmware version is 5.1 which I know is ancient now. My only concern is to try and regain access to my whatsapp. I can't afford to lose that data (which is why I haven't cleared the data for that specific app) because the number associated with the account is now null. Does anyone know of any methods (besides the basic troubleshooting tips) I can use to either fix the error messages or am I doomed 😪
[Galaxy S6 Active] ze7zez:
Have you tried wiping your phone's cache?
[Galaxy S6 Active] xoxosendhelp:
Thanks for the response. I've tried clearing the cache data for play store and most of the other apps, but it doesn't seem to work unfortunately. Same error message occurs even after clearing cache and force stopping each app.
[Galaxy S6 Active] ze7zez:
Not so. Do a wipe in recovery mode
[Galaxy S6 Active] xoxosendhelp:
Just tried wiping the cache partition while in recovery mode and it didn't work. Error message popped back up after rebooting. Any other possible methods I could use? or should I wait it out for a possible WhatsApp update to hopefully fix the issue? Thanks again

[Galaxy S6 Active] ze7zez:
Remove google account from the phone, uninstall updates google store and services, create google account and disable google account sync, do not start google store. Wait a long time for the store and services to update themselves. Only after that launch whatsapp.

[Touch 3G General] variac:
does it have "SMS on call reject" and "unknown number add to contacts"

Just wonder if it has originally these features like it is done in Diamond:

when you reject the incoming call it proposes to send an sms to the caller

when you finish call to/from unknown number it offers to save it in contacts
[Touch 3G General] Defius:
Is has both. You can activate those options on the configuration.
[Android Head-Units] Snow_fox:
So I've read a lot about android head units recently and there are (legitimate) concerns about the security of any info on the device. unfortunately for me, looking for a device that doesn't break the bank and has built in gps seems to give me the option of a boss unit that can't play Google maps so I'm stuck with whatever maps it comes with and no idea how long I'll have updates, or an atoto or something.

My question is have any security audits been done? Are there any safe head units?

[Moto G Stylus 5G] jameslionbreath:
Basically, my phone is in Android 11, i don't wish to update to android 12 (read enough post about the bugs and i simply hate the UI)

I mostly hate how the Update "popup" forces a app change (like when you click a notification and it opens the app), and that LAGS my phone, plus i just find it annoying (watching YT, boom update, Chatting with friends? Boom update, Pokémon sleep? Update....ETC.)

I did find this reddit guide

https://www.reddit.com/r/MotoG/comments/zk4m5b
And I'm curious if it will fully apply to my phone, is it safe to do? are there some steps or emergency backup i should do? (If so how), because i Really don't feel like trying something if it has the chance of brick or the chance that ail need to format phone (I obviously don't feel like formatting my phone). And which of the steps are "Reversable" (In case if i ever in the future i wish to update, which will probably be never)

[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ait1071:
Hello Everyone,

First, I did not see a thread for the Ticwatch 5 Pro development so I apologize if this needs to be moved.

Second, I have successfully been able to unlock the bootloader of the TW5P via an old TWP 2020 pogo pins and "Fastboot flashing unlock" command. TIP: You won't be able to see the full screen but the first option says "lock the bootloader" and the second or bottom option says "unlock bootloader". Also, keep in mind this will erase the watch back to factory settings.

I now need some assistance. I have installed and pushed magisk apk and zip to the watch using the instructions from here. https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-official-kali-nethunter-for-the-ticwatch-pro-3-wearos.4456797/

When I open the Magisk app I am not sure about patching the vbmeta in boot image. I ideally would like to obtain a full stock rom backup before patching anything. So if you could provide assistance in a potential twrp recovery image or could help me find a way to get a full rom image that can be installed via download mode that would help quite a bit.

Also, if anyone could explain the vbmeta patch and what this does that would also be helpful.

Thanks for all of your help.
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jacob1004:
Mobvoi needs to upload the kernel source. Twrp can be build by using the kernel source. I don't know if the twrp from other ticwatchs like ticwatchs 3 pro will work with ticwatch 5 pro. What is the code name of ticwatch 5 pro? You can find it by attaching your watch with USB and see the code name in terminal.

As much as I know you need to patch vbmeta and use a custom twrp in order to backup the stock images.

Best regards

There's very little chance TWRP for ticwatch pro 3 could ever work on pro 5, it's a newer processor

[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WorldOfJohnboy:
I'm not necessarily interested in unlocking/rooting my TWP5, however, I am interested to know if anyone is looking to develop for TicWatch(es) in general. There are a lot of owners complaining in particular about the removal of Native Google Assistant on the TWP3 and TWP5 in particular.

I've sideloaded Assistant Go and a button remap, but the "native" version was much better and allowed voice commands and gestures before Google took it away. I'm not a developer by any stretch, so I'm hoping someone might be interested in looking into it.

Here for notifications, been trying to get a tic 5 pro thread for months
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1ynxy:
I have also had a quick go at unlocking the bootloader & fiddling with this device- a complete pain when you need the Mobvoi app to even set-up the device, which doesn't run without Google Play Services. I've disabled as many Mobvoi apps as I dare, as well as as much of the embedded GMS as I can. If this were stable like this I might be content, but it would be nice if the whole system could be replaced by something minimalist and stable.

Why must we be forced to use these devices exactly how big monopolies want us to? This is capable hardware- it could do so very much more than this if it were opened up.

I'm not certain we can comprehensively root or dump this device without a custom recovery, and by extension access to the boot.img. Either way- if there's anything I could do to help gather device info for anyone giving it a go, I'd be happy to help.
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jbrimb:
Got the bootloader unlocked ? using a custom 4 pin cable makes it possible, then a simple "fastboot oem unlock" does the trick (it should be the some as the pro 3) Now the tricky part is to get access to the official firmware in order to modify the boot image and get root access
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1ynxy:
Luckily I had a few 4-pin Pogo sets lying around so I've managed to create a debug cable pretty quickly[1]. Unlocking is fine, if useless at this point.

The device model is WH12088, codename DACE. My watch is currently running Wear OS 3.5, build number RMDB.230615.003. Available, is build number RMDB.231019.002, still on Wear OS 3.5.

I'm attempting to MITM the OTA update, just in-case it includes any of the required objects for even rooting the device (a boot.img would be nice). Unfortunately, there are a couple of roadblocks, ignoring the fact that it might not even be in a usable format (I don't believe that Wear OS devices are yet Treble compatible, and "adb shell

getprop ro.boot.slot_suffix" returns nothing, so no A/B).

Using mitmproxy I have set up a HTTP(S) proxy server on port 8888, opened up that port on my firewall, and pointed the watch at it with PermanentProxy for Wear OS by Jolanrensen, which I sideloaded over ADB. Really, this just uses http_proxy under the hood, which could be done using ADB. In order for the client to trust the proxy server, you must copy across the SSL cert in .mitmproxy to the client device and install it. Unfortunately, the settings contexts for installing certs in Android were removed from Wear OS in versions 3.0 and later. You can move the cert file across to the device using ADB, place it somewhere sensible (like /data/local/tmp), and attempt to start the CertInstaller app using ADB but the app will insist on you installing the cert using the correct settings context. The following is the ADB command used, and the response on the watch face.

adb shell am start -n com.android.certinstaller/.CertInstallerMain -a android.intent.action.VIEW -t application/x-x509-ca-cert -d file:///data/local/tmp/mitmproxy-ca-cert.cer

I suppose I could attempt to install the OTA update purely over Bluetooth via the Android tether? That way I could, potentially, MITM the phone's connection? Is that a thing? My understanding is that as long as I'm a trusted component somewhere in the chain, it should work, but I'm no expert in these things.

[1] For future reference, I had to do some digging to fully verify this information (I did not want to fry the watch), but here is confirmation on the pinout for making a 4 pin connector from scratch. Most people appear to modify existing cables for previous devices.

USB pinout, left to right, with male-end contacts facing down: VCC, D-, D+, GND

These typically correspond to the colours: Red, Green, White, Black

With the watch facing down, and "TICWATCH MOBVOI" the right way up, the pins follow the left to right order of the USB pinout, in the direction top to bottom. See attached image.

Exciting stuff, finally bought mine this morning. Hopefully I'll have a rooted smartwatch in the end
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcky844:
If anyone here is thinking of buying a Ticwatch Pro 5, think twice!

My heart rate sensor broke 8 months into its life and it never went back. Tried to go through with Mobvoi warranty and they say mine isn't accepted for repairs. Older Mobvoi watches weren't so easy to break for me, so seeing this was shocking for me.

It didn't stop there., repairability got a hit too. Traditionally, Mobvoi had used gaskets instead of adhesive to hold their backs together. This changed with this generation. I tried to open it to see what's wrong and met a bunch of black adhesive blocking my way. I was fortunate and managed to open it using some fingernails and pry tool, but this move seemed to me to be anti-consumer.

Finally, Mobvoi's software also is rather poor. Excluding the fact that they are the only company to not have shipped a single smartwatch with Wear OS 4 now, plus the fact that they don't do security updates, many bugs exist in their software too. For example, you have to constantly update the phone app in order to sync data off the watch. There's not even any dialog nagging you to do so and it makes for a confusing experience. Mobvoi also left some features that should be fixed broken, like the device's WiFi MAC address is actually broken. Although small, it shows that Mobvoi doesn't really care about its software.

The only good thing really is their kernel source release. I was able to find it for the watch within 5 minutes of research. I think their kernel would be fine and complete, but I simply wasn't able to get it working as I am not familiar with the new GKI scheme.
