Is RETUS the same as North American Retail?

Turns out it is:

I learned how to figure this out using this guide:

[Guide] Using Fastboot.exe with Motorola devices

Guide: Using Fastboot.exe with Motorola Devices If your device has its own section please post in that section. You can ping me with @sd_shadow MediaTek or Qualcomm Chip? Do I have a MediaTek Device? see post #26 Info: If you have a MediaTek...

xdaforums.com

It showed how to tell the retail channel by typing :

fastboot get var all

and find the values that correspond with each thing:

Product = codename

securestate = bootloader locked or unlocked

carrier_sku = Model #

ro.carrier = Software Channel

ro.build.fingerprint = Software version See post #7

ro.build.version.full = Software version See post #7

this showed

This showed the value

ro.carrier: retus

Which is the same as north american retail. Which means that it the same as what is shown on android os even though it goes by a different name.

Thanks for the rooting guide. Did it on linux and it worked beautifully now I 'm fully rooted and can start modifying my phone.

Excellent guide

Anyone who managed to change the imei and mac address of the device from thikphone motorola after rooting?
[Lenovo ThinkPhone (by Motorola)] fragmede:
I ran into problems where

fastboot flash boot magisk_patched_xxx.img

wasn't working. The error it was giving me, after oem unlocking the device, was

(bootloader) Preflash validation failed

. The way around that was to do

fastboot boot magisk_patched_xxx.img

, let it boot into Android, then go into Magisk, which will complain that things are not quite right. In Magisk, go to Install, then direct install, which will then patch it from inside android, and then reboot when offered. When it finishes rebooting, you'll have root, as confirmed by running

su

in terminux.

I tried leaving the thread and coming back and the post still was there waiting for me to actually post/submit it. I found it required me to put in another post which happen to be this one than it finally disappeared so I could reply.

Hi,

Not something I have experienced but had a quick search and found this regarding what you have occuring on the Google support pages, I have put the link below.

Help keep your Pixel phone from feeling too warm or hot - Pixel Phone Help

If your phone sometimes feels warm, you shouldn’t be too concerned. Your phone can get warm if you: Play videos, games, or other media. Transfer or restore backed-up data on your phone. Record

support.google.com

Sounds like the device is just protecting itself against causing lasting heat damage.

Maybe there's something in ther eyou can use to help negate it happening so often..

[Touch HD General] johnpatcher:
Hi,

I'm new to HTC devices, so maybe it was already discussed for the HD, although I couldn't find anything.

I know there are many of you are missing the dpad, and I think a dpad is really helpful in some situations. By watching some reviews on the Diamond I just found a little application called GScroll.

It includes a really nice functionality called "'Swipe' to Scroll":

As I don't have my device yet I'm not sure if it would work on the HD, but maybe it could, or at least it could after some modification.

Maybe it would be possible to use the "home" and "back" button as a dpad, that would be really cool. Another possible solution would be that by pressing the "back" button you enable the functionality and then could use the "home" button as dpad. So you "loose" just one button at all.

So I'm asking you, if you could give it a try. Maybe we have to write to the author(s) in order to support the HD, but I don't know why it shouldn't work at all.

Any input is appreciated.

I flashed TWRP but when I reboot into recovery it still shown the og recovery (i. e. the stonk recovery). Bootloader unlocked (ofc), not rooted.

edit: well it helped me recover back to the stock recovery when my newly flashed TWRP got error. I got another TWRP file from another thread and tried flashing but when I enter the TWRP it didn't mount the data partition, so I get stuck rebooting back to that recovery. Thanks for sharing, anyways.
[Android General] physwizz:
To mount data try this

You need to format data.

1. Reboot to recovery.

2. change data partition to ext4

(Wipe, advanced wipe, select data, change file system)

3. Reboot to recovery.

4. Wipe, format data, type YES.

5. Advanced, terminal.

6.Type multidisabler (twice).

Or flash samsung multidisabler zip

7. Reboot to recovery and change data back to f2fs

[Lenovo Legion Y700] zolo111:
I just received a new 2022 version from aliexpress, 12GB, 256GB running Chinese rom based on Android 11 (13.0.586 ST).

-I can't seem to find the option to check for system update, I looked in the settings and can't find it. Do I need to create a lenovo account or something for it to show up? When I search in settings for update, it shows the option in "my phone", but when i click my phone, there's no button to check for update.

-Does it support auto wake/sleep function when opening/closing the case? I grabbed this case, it says it supports auto wake/sleep, but it is not working, I can't find any option in settings for enabling/disabling it.

Edit: I just received this case for my 2022 Y700, and the wake/sleep works :)
[Lenovo Legion Y700] lyr1st:
-System update is at 关于本机→系统更新, there is no necessary to create a lenovo account.

-It seems there is no Hall sensors on this device, so there's no wake/sleep function when opening/closing the case.

In my suggestion, if u wanna use zui, better stay on (13.1.578), zui 14 & 15 forcly enable dolby sound effect, which cause more audio latancy(quite bother me for playing rythem games). or update to zui 15.0.361 then flash AOSP 14. I've tried ponres/treble_aosp, works pretty fine.
[Lenovo Legion Y700] zolo111:
When I ordered the device, I asked the seller for a chinese rom, but what I got was chinese rom (I think!) but with unlocked bootloader (didn't notice/look when booting up) :(. It had the lenovo apps so I thought it was untouched.

I just flashed the chinese rom, bootloader is still unlocked, but I am getting updates now :)

Aha, so there is no wake/sleep function? damn it. Some sellers were listing the feature for the 2022 version when shopping for covers, and it is so fu**ing hard to find the specs of this tablet online.

The reason I want to update it to zui 14 or 15 is to get the pen functionality, haven't found yet which works, read so many mixed info about which actually works. I might move to AOSP if I can get the pen to work.

It is nagging me to update to zui14 now haha, been scratching my head why I couldn't update before.
[Lenovo Legion Y700] lyr1st:
you can still get system update on an unlocked device, just make sure the boot.img is stock(non-patched).
[Lenovo Legion Y700] zolo111:
So I tried to lock the bootloader last night via fastboot while it was running what appeared to be lenovo image that was shipped with from aliexpress (it had the lenovo apps + didn't look like the normal global rom) and after locking it never booted back up, only recovery mode. So I followed [Guide] unbrick lenovo y700 and it is working fine now.

If I try to lock the bootloader now after I just upgraded to ZUI 14 via OTA, would it be bricked again?
[Lenovo Legion Y700] lyr1st:
no，it should be fully official after edl-flashed, can be upgraded to the latest version via OTA.
[Lenovo Legion Y700] JeeHaa:
FYI: The Y700 2022 does support Sleep/Wake, I actualy use it. The problem is probably with most cheap Ali covers (I tried a few), either the magnetic strip is too small or not well aligned. I took a magnetic strip out of another cover and put it on the inside of the Y700 cover under a bit of black tape (fiddling a bit to find the right spot), and it works fine. :)
[Lenovo Legion Y700] zolo111:
Thank Jeehaa for you reply, I'm looking for a book case cover and there're so few offered that advertize magnetic wake/clse it's maddening, I'll give your suggestion a try. I have another case coming from China :)

Where are the magnets located?
[Lenovo Legion Y700] JeeHaa:
I taped it at the inside on the outer flap, in the middle and about 1cm from the top.

I cut the magnetic strip out of an old larger MI Pad 5 cover I had laying around.
[Lenovo Legion Y700] zolo111:
I apreciate your info JeeHaa (y)
[Lenovo Legion Y700] Aquahiker:
I have this cover for my 2022 Y700 and really like it. I wish they would make the same type for other tablets and even phones. You can remove the cover completely and the auto-wake works when the cover is opened:

Hello guys,

[General Questions and Answers] EllieCat:
What do you mean that your phone “malfunctioned”? If it is a temporary problem, you can take it to be repaired. You can also contact WhatsApp support.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Since your old phone is malfunctioning and you can't access your WhatsApp account, you can't receive the verification code to activate WhatsApp on your new phone. Without the verification code, you won't be able to set up your WhatsApp account on your new device.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Trunk_z:
Hey guys,

After my old contract ran out with my Universal, I decided that I'd go back to Nokia, and got a very nice N95.

Just come back to the WM scene with a Touch Pro. I'm glad that a lot of the simple things have been changed, EG, it's now easy to set an MP3 as a ringtone.

One thing that doesn't seem to have changed is bluetooth sync. With my nokia, I walked in the room and it'd sync to my computer. On my Touch Pro I have to open up ActiveSync, hit "Connect via bluetooth" and then hit sync. This itself isnt a problem for me, the issue is that there is a good minute delay before any progress bars or anything happens. Is this normal behaviour?

Oh, just another quick question as well... I did some searching, and it seems although you can set an mp3 as a text tone, but once you recieve a text message the mp3 will play through to the end... as I found out with a 10 minute song >< I couldn't find anything about getting it to stop when you read your text. Just double checking if anyone else knows a way to do it.

Thanks a lot,

Chris
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Ovrclck:
I would use mp3 trimmer and shorten the length of the song :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Trunk_z:
thanks fhe reply =)

The MP3 trimmer was my temp solution, I was hoping there would be a way to make it stop playing, but no matter.

Do you have any advice regarding the slowness of the bluetooth wmdc problem? Or is this slow to do thibgs for everyone?

Thanks a lot,

Chris

[Asus ROG Phone 6 / 6 Pro] TomKay:
Hi,

I'm running 33.0610.2810.33.0610.2810.166 and have no complaints.

Is it safe to upgrade to 33.0610.2810.172 or could I acquire any issues this way (e.g. losing output to one of the speakers, increased idle battery consumption, etc.)? I tried to find information about 33.0610.2810.172 but to no avail. This could be a good sign, but I don't want to take an unnecessary risk.

I realise that theoretically running the most up to date firmware is the most secure approach, but I'm not keen of trading my perfectly fine running phone into one that suddenly has issues. I understand downgrading is not an option, so a step in a one-way street has to be carefully considered, no?

Does anyone have experiences with 33.0610.2810.172?

In particular, I'm concerned about a potentially increased idle power consumption as I suspect that many people do not check that as obsessively as I do :) and hence may not notice that a firmware update introduced an issue in this area.

[Asus ROG Phone 6 / 6 Pro] TomKay:
Yes, and I didn't encounter any ill effects.

All fine, no problems.

Are the issues with 177 going to affect every phone or is it a subset?

I haven't updated to 177 yet and may never will, unless there is a confirmed update path from 177 that addresses all issues 177 may introduce.
[Asus ROG Phone 6 / 6 Pro] zortheck:
Thanks, so I'm going to update

I'm not sure, I didn't find many information about, but every single post I found was complaning about the issues.

Android 14 build 241 (official release) was published yesterday, Asus says that this firmware version only can be installed from 177, but it is too earlier to know if the update comes with important bugs or high battery consumption, and... since Asus stopped providing the old firmwares to download, and block the ability of downgrade from a13 build 159 and above, I think is better update carefully.
