HI , i just bought my HD, like 30 mins ago , just got home , exited and all the drama :) , and when i plugged the headphones in , ... well , the left chanel is louder than the right one , ... I tried it with 3 headphones , Sony , SE , and the original htc ones provided with the phone , wia bluetooth works fine - i mean really stereo yet a bit low....unforgettably the mall , where is the only shop that has this apparatus :), here in Romania it's already closed, ... (611 euro costs the hd here) ... but tomorrow , I'm there , first time in the morning to change the product i hope , they had only two on stock!!!

I'm I crazy ? or ....:mad:

looks to me a bad soldering - or an oxidized contact. don't hesitate and replace it.

You sure you have pressed the plug all the way in? I had to press really hard to get the htc headset all the way in so that the mic would function. Might be worth checking out.

[Redmi 9A Questions & Answers] yuval44:
Thank you very much for the answer

But in the new version 12.5.11.0 there is probably another new security (released in 06.23)

And that's why the samfw software fails to execute the command... there is a message "not supported"

And in the SP Flash tool software, I think the software has not been updated for a long time (2020)

, it also does not support the new security

That's why I specifically asked about version 12.5.11.0

If someone has already checked and knows, then I would appreciate an explanation

[General Questions and Answers] Saphira269:
Hey,

I wonder why there is no real thread here on the forum about a backup solution.

I don't know if I'm just too stupid for the search function or if it really doesn't exist here?

SeedVault is still unfortunately quite buggy?

Especially concerning the normal files.

Is there no (best OSS vie F-DROID) solution that makes a secure backup via WebDAV and also via mobile network?

Can also use root, because I want to use it for CustomROMS.

Thanks and kind regards
[General Questions and Answers] Saphira269:
Yes.

My "Files" App (preinstalled in MicroG for Lineage OS 20 August 20, 2023) have also access to these folder and can copy files to it.

But Signal can't also use it as direct Backup "Folder"
[General Questions and Answers] Saphira269:
Sorry I noticed atm that when wifi is enabled the button is not anymore disabled.

[Xiaomi 13] kaiosin:
Hey! I own a Xiaomi 13 EEA running the latest MIUI 14.0.27.0 update and I've made the mistake on trying to load A DSU image without having my bootloader unlocked. Now, everytime I boot my phone, I get the following error: "Your device is corrupted. It can't be trusted and may not work properly". After pressing the power button, the phone boots and works with no problems (maybe it's a bit slower than the usual, but I might be wrong). I tried factory resetting the phone, re-applying the last update and also trying some adb commands (adb reboot “dm-verity enforcing) I found on the internet but none solved my issue.

My questions are:

1. Would this error impact my phone in the future if being unsolved? For example, could my phone just brick itself with time?

2. Would unlocking the bootloader and flashing the official ROM fix it?

2.1. Does the Official version of the ROM need to be the original one (the one that the phone was shipped with) or it doesn't matter as long as the region is the correct one? I.E. EEA region.

2.2. Is it safe to re-lock the bootloader after flashing the correct official image or will it brick the phone?

Thanks!
[Xiaomi 13] NOSS8:
The best thing to do is to unlock the Bootloader.

The phone is a Global version with an EEA ROM, you can flash any ROM version, except CN, and lock the bootloader.

[Realme GT 2] Stano36:
A new method.

Changing the region through the built-in updater.

You do everything at your own risk, I am not responsible for any damages.

This method uses unmodified Full OTA packages and the built-in updater.​

Download the latest Full OTA package of your region and download the Full OTA of the region you want to go to. (the software version must be the same or newer than the one you have installed)

Place the Full OTA (original region) in the internal memory of the device and the Full OTA (new region) in the Documents folder. Rename both files to ota.zip

Go to the update menu, three dots and Local installation. If there is no Local Update option, enable Developer Mode and in it turn on Force activities to be resizable. Select the Full OTA file that is in the internal memory, then the check will pass and the "extract" button will appear. Don't press it!

We minimize the application and put it in split screen mode.

We open the file manager and remove the Full OTA (original region) from the internal memory.

We will move the Full OTA (new region) from the Documents folder to the internal memory. After replacing the file on the phone, click extract. Waiting...30 minutes

Done!

Install the Full OTA (new region) manually once more so that it is in both slots.

After performing the second installation, I recommend doing a factory reset.

If you need Full OTA packages, write to me.

Collection of OTA packages.

The old method

Warning!​

The OPLocal_Update application stopped working after the C.20 update.

You do everything at your own risk, I am not responsible for any damages.

This tutorial allows you to change the Turkish region to European and vice versa with a locked bootloader. The already prepared OTA files for the EU and TR region will be listed here.

Instructions:

Download the Full OTA of the desired region and put it in the root directory of the internal memory.

RMX3311_11_C.20_EU

RMX3311_11_C.20_TR

Installing a third-party software update application. Go to smartphone settings, then Applications > Management. applications, 3 dots and check the Show System! Look for SOFTWARE UPDATE and clear this app's data and cache! Then install the Android 13 Software Update Installer

OPLocalUpdate_For_Android13.apk

Installing an update through a third-party application! Next, open the app we installed and update through it (the gear on the top right and select the .zip file in the root directory of the internal memory), an installation window should appear! If everything is fine, the process will start and you will be prompted to restart your smartphone after installing the update.

Installation takes 15-20 minutes.

After restarting your smartphone, you are in a new region.

It is recommended to flash the firmware file twice to flash both slots!

I was skeptical on whether the new method would work or not (i mean, with a locked bootloader? really?), but curiousity got the best of me and i tried it on my Turkish GT2 with 1630, switched to EU 1630 perfectly... thank you for the guide!
[Realme GT 2] raczzalan:
I followed all the steps but it did not work

I have the latest EU version and I was trying with the latest IN version.

So First, I put this in the main folder : RMX3311_11.C.22_EU_202312211736 (it was renamed to ota.zip in the file manager)

I opened local update

I chose this EU ota.zip

I have already put and renamed (in the file manager) the IN version to the documents: RMX3312_11.C.22_IN_202312211737

I did not click on extract, I opened the file manager in split mode with the local update where it says to extract, I did not click on that yet.

I deleted the EU ota.zip and moved the IN ota.zip to the main folder.

I click on extract now and the phone keeps thinking for 10 seconds, the extract remains in 0% and then it says "Extraction failed" (Cancel/Reselect).

I have already deleted the data of the system updater but it did not help either.

Could you please advise @Stano36 ?

Thank you in advance!

PS:

Now I am trying with the Indian Rollback package, it was just not clear that we do not have to follow the whole description just the way the update is installed. So far it is extracting, let's hope for the best.
[Realme GT 2] Stano36:
You can only change the region between EU and TR. If you managed to install the Indian version, you would not have the SIM card and IMEI function. The modems of these devices are different.
[Realme GT 2] raczzalan:
I wanted to perform the region change for the rollback as it was not clear that we did not need to do the exact steps that are there, we just needed to do the trick with the split screen.

Thank you, it worked, and I rolled back successfully to the Android 12 EU version with working IMEI.
[Realme GT 2] Stano36:
I wrote about it here.
[Realme GT 2] diegodm:
Hello @Stano36, with this method would it be possible to change my EU region to another region with the purpose of unlocking my bootloader (for instance IN or CN) and after unlocking go back to my EU version and stay with an unlocked bootloader? Thank you

You will not be able to unlock the bootloader. In addition, your device will lose its IMEI and SIM card functions.
[Realme GT 2] diegodm:

[Realme GT 2] Stano36:

Hey, I'm using a Canadian S23 with an Airtel Sim in India. I am able to use 4G, but the Carrier Aggregation is not working. While using NetMonster, it only shows 1 band and because of that, the speed of 4G on the phone is really low. Can I any one help me with it?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] theomni:
hello everyone.

Since I don't have a data plan with AT&T, I use the program NoData which stops the transfer of any data from AT&T MediaNet or AT&T GPRS.

If I have those running, would I not be able to use my GPS? I have Google Maps installed and I'm looking to buy a TomTom software. If I have either of those, can I still use GPS without having to turn on Data?

Also, is it possible to download the directions and maps from Google Maps Mobile so that the phone just uses the GPS and updates the directions without the need to have an active data transfer?

Thanks
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] motionmind:
Google maps has to have data at all times. Tomtom has all the maps and POI on a storage card so it doesn't need data at all.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] mindfrost82:
You can't use Google Maps without having data on (either AT&T data or WiFi) because it downloads the maps on the fly.

With TomTom, GPS should work just fine without any data because the maps are stored on your storage card.

I also use the NoData program and have no problems with Garmin Mobile XT (which works like TomTom).
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] theomni:
all right. So even with NoData running, the GPS signal and network should work fine, right? And this if I use the GPS, I won't get charged extra from AT&T, will I?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Deleted member 1397390:
You can't even use Google Maps on a Wifi-only connection?? Well that sucks.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] snathanb:
Yes it will work, no you won't get charged.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] snathanb:
Yes it will work, no you won't get charged.

You can put the phone in "Airplane mode" and turn the cellular radio off completely, and it will still work.

AT&T doesn't charge you for using the GPS. They charge you for using their Telenav program and maps. Completely different.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] motionmind:
You can use google maps just fine with wifi...it just needs some sort of data access so any internet connection will do.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] snathanb:
Works for me, too. I turned Wifi on, turned GPS on, turned cellular radio off... worked just fine.
[General Questions and Answers] dropdeadgoogle:
I want to change the custom rom I am using (Android 13 on LGv30).

I will do a clean flash so I will lose WHATSAPP and then reinstall it again.

I don't want to lose any of the chats and media that I currently have access to (stuff that means a lot to me)

I am hoping I can just copy/backup certain directories already on the phone (ones that will be wiped) then copy them back again after I reinstall the new OS (the new and old rom will both be android 13 versions)

I don't want to use googledrive to back up WHATSAPP (there is no google account on the phone)

Does anyone know which directories need to be copied and where they are?

(I tried TitaniumBackup on an earlier OS but it dodn't save the movies, pictures or the chats)

Perhaps there is a different app that backs up and then restores Whatsapp completely ("WHATSAPP Migrate" maybe?)

Your facebook chats are stored on facebook servers not your device, wiping your device clean isn't going to delete them.

Just log back in after you're done and you're good to go.

Side note: if you're using messenger as your default sms app, then idk if the SMS you sent are stored on facebook's servers, anyway you can back up everything using one of those apps

Then the solution is easy, cooy the entire WhatsApp folder to your pc, wipe your device then move the WhatsApp folder to your phone BEFORE YOU REINSTALL WHATSAPP.

But make sure to save a chat backup in WhatsApp (open WhatsApp then fo to settings then chat then chat backup).

And a side note, when setting uo WhatsApp again, accept whatever permissions it asks you for, all of them, otherwise the restore chat screen won't pop up for some reason

[General Questions and Answers] dropdeadgoogle:
I copied all the contents of the whatsapp folder (4.5gb), then reinstalled whatsapp with the same number then copied all the com.whatsapp content I had saved (inc Databse, Backups and Media folders) to the com.whatsapp folder in android/media on the internal drive.

BUT MY CHATS SIMPLY DO NOT APPEAR IN WHATSAPP.

there are backups in the Backups folder but whatsapp will not look at them.

It seems whatsapp have changed their coding to make sure that the only way to restore chats is from google drive.
[General Questions and Answers] madhuranand007:
It is best to use

Swift Backup and Shizuku

to take complete backup of Whatsapp (for Non-rooted phones also) on your phone, it will create a backup folder by the name of /SwiftBackup and then take the backup of /SwiftBackup folder on PC or anywhere else for future use.

It will work 1000%... All the Very Best
[General Questions and Answers] dropdeadgoogle:
It's too late, I made the os change. But thanks anyway. I will surely try the apps you suggest next time.

I did backup Whatsapp using Titanium Backup .... it didn't backup the android/media/whatsapp folder but it did backup 2 folders from root/data/data .... a folder called "com.whatsapp" and another called ".external.com.whatsapp"

I will try to manually copy these 2 folders and contents back to data/data but I am not sure if I need to rename the ".external.com.whatsapp" folder, perhaps remove the full-stop at the start?

When I tried a straightforward "restore app+data" from Titanium Backup then Whatsapp just crashed immediately, even if the android/media/wahtsapp folder was fully copied back
[General Questions and Answers] Fooking Rekt:
If you are on an older version of Android you will have a Whatsapp folder in your internal storage at /storage/0/emulated, on more recent Android versions this folder is moved to /storage/0/emulated/Android/media/com.whatsapp.

Copy the entire Whatsapp folder (including a local chat backup) to that folder, then open Whatsapp and add your number.
[General Questions and Answers] runs:
just copy the files doesn't work in new phone .because these files encryption by imei+uni
[General Questions and Answers] Fooking Rekt:
Incorrect. Copy the folder to Android/media/com.whatsapp BEFORE setting up Whatsapp.
