That's great information. Thank you. I will try using partition DL option to flash all partitions of stock rom and see how it goes. And also thank you for maintaining LineageOS for LG V20, which is one of the few rootable / 'bootloader unlockable" phones out there especially for verizon network.

Hi

Is it possible to make longpressing a character on the keyboard use a character of my choice? rather than bringing up a menu where I have to click on the screen to choose character?

Example:

I want to use the character Å (A with a ring over it, its in the norwegian alphabet)

I longpress A, and that gives me a menu on the screen with Â, Ã, Ä and Å, and I have to click one of those!

Instead I want to set my own characters like this:

Longpress A = Å (A-ring)

Longpress E = Æ (AE)

Longpress O = Ø (O-line)

I dont know if this exists or even if it is possible, but it would be a great timesaver!
[G1 General] mannyb:
This would indeed be very useful. Request seconded.
[G1 General] Zappza:
Third :)

Just as a tip for my fellow norwegians, since aa (a with ring above) is the key that is most to use, I usually just copy that letter and just paste it when I need it later, and long press o to got oe and then press enter, and for ae I just long press a and use the scroll wheel to move one field down and then press enter.

Not sure if this works for you, but I manage just fine with this approach. The only thing that annoys me is the lack of support for foreign keys in the android browser.

No root access and there isnt a fully fledged Android settings menus (like i said it limited).

[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] Shironeko8:
every time I hold down the power button and turn off my Asus rog phone 5s, it will turn off completely, there will be no response when holding down the power button and there is not even a charging indicator when on charge. but after I let it sit for 1 day, then I charge the phone, the charging indicator appears and shows 0% battery when previously the battery was still 90%. after I charge it again to 100% and I turn it on it operates as usual. but if I turn it off again the same thing will happen. This happened after I flash twrp through fastboot mode. Does anyone know what happened?
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glennza:
I posted this on Reddit but did not get an answer

Is there an "official" way to downgrade Wear OS version?​

I have Ticwatch Pro 3 LTE and am still waiting for the Wear OS 3.5 update. I have heard good and bad stories about 3.5 and would like to know if I have the option of returning to 2.xx if I want to.

Is there a way to downgrade using ADB without unlocking the bootloader? Or some other way that doesn't require the data cable?

And just for reference: Is it possible to downgrade using the data cable with locked/unlocked bootloader and then relocking it. Will that provide certified status again?
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lord Sithek:
I'm not sure if anyone tried this yet, but from what I understand you would definitely have to unlock bootloader. Then you'd have too flash twrp, flash WearOS 2 package and then possibly relocj bootloader.

The only thing that worries me is if the bootloader itself has been updated. If so, there may be unexpected results... But I truly don't know
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glennza:
That explains why I couldn't find any info about it.

I only bought the watch recently because of the issues with Play Integrity/fingerprint spoofing. I like to use Google Wallet on my phone but it's handy having the watch as a backup. If I unlock the bootloader it kind of defeats the object if I lose Play Integrity on the watch too.

You would think there would be an official way to manual push a stock rom to the watch. Oh well, maybe I'll just stay on Wear OS2.xx, works well enough for me.

[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] didar_nice:
Hey guys. I need some advice. I have this note 9 pro (BTW IDK how to identify the Indian model or what). still Android 10 and MIUI 12. my main issue is that I can not free up more than 10 GB of storage no matter what solution I tried. so I thought factory reset and why not install custom ROMs? I'm thinking of CrDroid or Pixel experience, but are there some smaller or more optimized ROMs to use less space and still higher Android? I think there are many apps in the stock ROM that I simply don't use. Can't we just not include them in the custom ROMS?

also, the camera is very important for me. the stock camera is somehow good but I could not use the 240fps slow-motion with other camera apps. also, I need a good pro mode specifically to get shutter speeds of more than 30 seconds. which ROMs do you suggest?

Thanks, guys

[General Questions and Answers] ParOfGalicia:
Hi

I am tried to find this answer but without success.

I have Samsung android 13 device which was reset to factory settings and wiped out.

Is it possible to recover any timestamp or any other artefact which can says WHEN EXACTLY RESET/WIPE HAVE BEEN MADE?

Telephone what started one time after reset but no further actions were taken.

thx for any hint.
[General Questions and Answers] ze7zez:
If you did it not so long ago and you had the time set for automatic renewal from the network, then look at the logs available in recovery mode. Remember that every reboot of the phone deletes the earliest log.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
My guess is that recovering the exact timestamp of a factory reset on an Android 13 device after it has been wiped and restarted is highly unlikely. Reason: The factory reset process typically erases all user data and system logs, including timestamps associated with the reset itself.
[General Questions and Answers] ParOfGalicia:
it makes sense of course - but maybe there is something which point to i.e. first start after wipe or device RTC reset ? From other hand some logs should be there on system partition as mentioned on reply above.. iI am trying to distinguish what I am looking for before start of deeper diging. Any suggestions are appreciable.
[General Questions and Answers] ParOfGalicia:
I will try that. Let you know the results. BTW - is somebody tried to recover some data after system wipe? is it possible at all?
[Nothing Phone 1] Kuriiboh:
I had the Nothing phone 1 since May 2023 It has never fallen off and there's no misuse or water damage.

I never rooted my phone or done anything. Also battery is not damaged or dead it still recharges normally and reaches 100%

On January 31, 2024, all of a sudden my phone rebooted itself and I got a black screen with a message says: Can't load android system. And there's 2 options, try again or factory reset. No matter how many times I do try again it won't quit this mode and won't reboot normally to the system.

My question.. is there a way to access my data in the internal storage in this situation? (Photos and videos most importantly) I don't have a backup for the very recent data unfortunately.

Is there a way to recover it through ADB or back it up? or anything similar? Does rooting help?

I just want to get my photos and videos. I don't care about anything else.

I never performed factory reset or root or wiped the data (my phone storage was never full or near full) .. I'm afraid I won't be able to recover any data after reset or I would make it even more difficult for me to retrieve it.

I suspect the damage I'm facing is because of the new update which was released on the same day, because before that I never had or faced issues.

Currently I can access and see the bootloader and fastboot.

But in the bootloader it says in the device state - locked

I don't remember if USB debugging option is on

I thought about using ADB and perform sideload. I clicked apply update from ADB on the phone and then connected it to my PC and phone was on the list of attached devices in ADB waiting to receive the update file.

I downloaded the latest nothing phone update zip file (around 63 MB) but it didn't work... on cmd it says: failed to open file, no such file or directory.

although I have the update file in the adb platform tools file. so I really don't know why it was not found and recognized.

Is there any way or method to backup the phone in this situation or access/extract/copy the pictures and videos?

Any help or fix would be very much appreciated. I haven't been able to rest since that day, been searching and trying none stop.
[Nothing Phone 1] JHPdesign:
If you were on OS 2.0.5 and haven't tried the update, it should work if you use the correct version, the OS 2.0.5 OTA file. You can tell support about the issue and get the OS 2.0.5 OTA file.
[Nothing Phone 1] Kuriiboh:
I contacted them and they sent me the full OTA file and I tried the apply update from adb sideload and it failed unfortunately.

I got failed to unmount and failed to set up expected mounts for install
[Nothing Phone 1] Kuriiboh:
Also among the stuff I get when I try to apply update from ADB sideload is this:

Total xfer: 0.00x

any Idea what could possibly be wrong?

I'm willing to try any solution as long as it doesn't wipe off my data.

All I care about is DCIM folder . I want to get the data.

Thread update:
[Nothing Phone 1] TheMystic:
@xXx yYy

Can you help with the required commands?

Thanks.
[Nothing Phone 1] TheMystic:
Your bootloader is locked. That leaves you with a very very limited number of things to try. Unlocking bootloader (to root or anything else) is NOT an option because the first thing it will do is to wipe all your data.

Flashing the full ROM successfully is one option.

Otherwise using adb to pull your data from phone is all you are left with.
[Nothing Phone 1] Kuriiboh:
flashing via adb or fastboot? May I know which commands you're referring to?

also full ROM is it similar to the full ota file I got? or it's a different file? sorry I'm a bit confused and cautious.

I have attached a screenshot of the files I've got.

I recently just found a disc image file called Nothing pacman 14 , any idea if this might work and how to flash it without data loss?

I think my phone's os is spacewar 13
[Nothing Phone 1] TheMystic:
Whichever works. I don't remember the commands as its been very long since I stopped modding my phones.

The full ROM, which usually is 3 to 4 GB in size. Don't flash the 'update' file. You need the full operating system. And the exact same version that is already installed or a newer version of the same ROM.

Avoid flashing random stuff. This will increase the risk of losing your data. I have no idea of what you have attached in screenshots, but it doesn't look like it is the official stuff.

Think?

Did you buy a new phone? Your bootloader is locked, isn't it?
[Nothing Phone 1] Kuriiboh:
Yes bootloader is locked.

and yes it's spacewar but not sure if it's android 12 or 13

but I'm dead sure it isn't android 14

and the version number is behind 2.5.2 (latest is 2.5.2)
[Nothing Phone 1] TheMystic:
So you have a custom ROM and locked bootloader. Risky combination.

Download the latest build (2.5.2) of the same ROM (Spacewar) and flash it. Don't flash any other ROM, and this includes the official ROM.
[Nothing Phone 1] Maxim-Root:
Hello, I want to try to help you, BUT I make NO promises that I will be able to do so as this is not my device, please message me on Telegram for real time assistance as I don't frequent the xda forum. https://t.me/MaximRoot
[Nothing Phone 1] Kuriiboh:
Why flashing the official ROM is risky?

I have the 2.5.2 OTA file I showed it to you here in the attachments. Is this the one you are telling me to flash? (I got it from official source)

I tried adb sideload on this file and I got:

failed to read command : no error

and on phone I get messages like: (adbd status 5)
[Nothing Phone 1] TheMystic:

From what I see, version 2.5.x is Android 14, and your phone is running on an older version of Android. People who have this phone and have tinkered with it would know better. I'm not one among them.

[Nothing Phone 1] Kuriiboh:
@TheMystic

Thank you very much! I'll check the threads.

But pardon me.. I have another question, is there a way to know what OS version my phone is running? Like I want to know the exact one. All I know is that it's older than 2.5.2

Is it possible to get that info from getvar all? or a similar command?

I used getvar all earlier and I found this:

vendor build version incremental = 2311101731

or something else I must be looking for to get the build / version of my phone's OS?

I don't know how it works on your phone, but installing TWRP did not result in rooting the device, much less deleting data

[Nothing Phone 1] Maxim-Root:
And yes sir I don't know if TWRP flashing is possible with the bootloader locked on your device
[Nothing Phone 1] TheMystic:
Use this command:

adb shell getprop

This will give you a whole lot of information about the software on your phone. In that, look for the values that start with ro.build.version

Use those values to lookup in Google if required.

Don't flash anything except for the full ROM. Use adb to get info about your device.

Feel free to offer your solutions here. Inviting people to join you elsewhere is against the rules of this forum.
[Nothing Phone 1] TheMystic:
TWRP is a custom recovery. Changing the recovery is not rooting. They are two completely different things. You can read about the basics here.

In any case, any sort of modification to your phone requires an unlocked bootloader. And when you unlock the bootloader, it will wipe your system's internal storage permanently. So this is not an option for you now.

I would like retry the full ota installation from adb, can post a screenshot of the error while attempting sideload?

You said you tried with 9008, did you went into edl mode?

because it may be possible to backup your phone with Mark's backup tool

You select to read (AND NOT WRITE) and the tool should start backupping your partitions.

beware that if this also fails reading into memory and not for its own shenanigans it may signify that what broke inside your phone is your memory chip.

there only professionals are able to read into that
[Nothing Phone 1] Kuriiboh:

I don't know how to use EDL efficiently, specially for reading, so I'm still searching and learning.
[Nothing Phone 1] AnotherM1m:
were you able to boot into it?
[Nothing Phone 1] Kuriiboh:
I logged into google photos, I got nothing there. I never used google to backup my files anyways. always done it manually and unfortunately the very recent photos and videos are not backed up. Who would've thought my phone would crash unexpectedly like this because of an update... very strange and disappointing. But I'm not giving up.
[Nothing Phone 1] Style2010:
п Therefore, it is always better to save photos in the cloud. I have photos saved since 2008 in the cloud. And there are about 45GB of photos and videos.

edl mode is the only chance right now,

have you tried powering off your phone, hold vol up and down together while inserting the cable?
[Nothing Phone 1] Kuriiboh:
I don't want to do the test point method.. is it ok if I just do it with the regular usb and connect it to pc? or there's a risk of bricking my phone further if I've done something incorrectly? Also let's say I managed to connect it.. what's the next step? Should I use the edl tool that is provided here! I'm sorry I have many questions and I'm still searching and proceeding with caution.
[Nothing Phone 1] AnotherM1m:
Yes, hold vol down and up plug normal cable

The next stop is to use mark unbricktool not to write but to read
[Nothing Phone 1] Kuriiboh:
Check the screenshot
[Nothing Phone 1] Kuriiboh:
@AnotherM1m

I discovered I needed to rename the unbrick tool file and make sure no space between path.

currently I got this error

[Nothing Phone 1] Kuriiboh:
I tried a different port on my PC and still same issue.
[Nothing Phone 1] Renate:
I have zero experience on Nothing phones and I have no idea if this needs authentication.

But if this works with generic EDL clients and you have the Firehose loader, I can help you read this.

I don't know what the problem you are having with Com ports and I don't use them.

Get edl.exe (in my sig below), follow the instructions and use Zadig to load WinUsb drivers.

Then, just try from a fresh restart into EDL mode (never disconnecting USB) a basic

edl.exe /l

(that's "ell").

If you have a Firehose loader for this either attach or link.
[Nothing Phone 1] Kuriiboh:
this got me confused. could you please elaborate?

also this:

and thank you very much for the steps.
[Nothing Phone 1] Renate:
The Sahara protocol is quite fragile.

You can't go into EDL mode, then pull the cable and plug it back in again.

Most things can tolerate that, this can't.

This applies whether you are using that Com port silliness or direct USB connection.

If in doubt or an error occurs, reset and go freshly into EDL mode.

edl.exe /l

The last character in that command is a lowercase L, not a 1.
[Nothing Phone 1] Kuriiboh:
yes sorry I figured later and a bit late.. many thanks for elaborating everything.

Could you please check the screenshot?

I have downloaded edl.exe from the yellow page.. how can I safely and correctly run edl?
[Nothing Phone 1] Renate:
Did you double click this somewhere or did you type the command in a cmd windows (Windows normal shell, not Power Shell).

Windows-R, then "cmd.exe".

If it gives you silly warnings, just click "More info" and then click something.

If you are in doubt, check the MD5 it's 1ec2241fed58db8bcab4b8bd22891593

OTOH, I don't think stock Windows has an MD5 utility? Maybe Power Shell?

Hi all,

This is a small post regarding the silicone case that I got from ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170283532114

After 10 business days or a bit more, finaly I got it and have been using it for the past three days.

Originates from HongKong, the case fits the HD nicely. No saggyness or

extra space, you drop in the phone and it fits good.

The thickness is not extremley thick nor thin, I wouldn't count on it to break

a 6 feet fall, but it will definately help protect it from day to day small bumps and just throwing around.

Touching the silicone material itself feels strange, as my previous silicone case was more on the sticky side. This feels a bit more like human skin (more or less) although I feel that my fingers glide with ease on it, holding it with a grip and putting it on different surfaces usually tends to make it hold with a better grip.

Attached are images taken with the HD.

One small note about the cuts/opennings in the case:

- Turning on/off the screen needs a bit of getting used to since the button is cuvered now.

- No small hole for the LED indicator (which till now doesn't bother me)

I have also included an image to show the size of the package, it is just a bit bigger than the case it self, and they also included a free screen protector (which i'll save for later use if needed).

Enjoy...
