Small update on progress :

--------------------------

"Uhoh ... bad things happen and sometimes the world isn't perfect."

This message is intended for those who work with QC EFS and QMAT.

Several ways to read out EFS exist. And the one from QMAT wasn't perfect at all. Sometimes, sniffing usb data gets you nowhere ... we had to act professional. In fact, after some heavy researches and reversing of firmware, I can now confirm that there is not only "ONE" EFS read at all.

So next version to be released will hopefully introduce two-way-efs for efs explorer to be used with all known qc types. And of course I had to write a lot of fixes for efs RAW/Factory read that I didn't knew before ....

Expect the next version 4.24 to be not only a lot more stable than all versions before ... but will also feature REAL efs dump :)

Cya,

Small update :

--------------

Boys and girls,

version 4.24 will be really new. I rewrote complete com/usb port stack and added a lot of new features, like a new command database, gui improvements, efs generic and subsystem browsing, safe factory efs, new bootloader interface, etc....

Trust me, this version will fix a lot of crashes and hangs :D

To prevent any bugs still being in it, we're doing severe bugtesting right now.

Cya,

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] viperbjk:
As we wish to make a good working and much better QMAT,

we start a Beta Tester Program.

What advantages do you get :

- Be the first to get unofficial versions

- Be productive and make QMAT more user-friendly

- Get a discount on special modules

- Get your phone working with QMAT

- Increase your knowledge regarding qc technology

Why it is important for us :

- Make more phones work with QMAT

- Fix any existing bug and make QMAT more stable

If you're interested, please write a PM to me, with subject "QMAT Beta Tester" and a short introduction of yourself

(where you are from, if you are a user / programmer / reverse engineer, why you want to be a beta tester, what phones with qc chipsets you have to test)

Thanks,

QMAT Beta Tester

I saw it in the original forum and to start i'm from Bulgaria (South-Eastern Europe), interested mostly in replacing/messing around with LG's AMSS system, the bootloaders will be great, but i'm realist so the illusions are out, i have KU990 not a real reverse-engineer, but i know basic stuff (i was developing in PHP about an year) for how system works.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] viperbjk:
Well the more beta testers we have, the better :D
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] viperbjk:
Small update :

--------------

Version 4.24 is almost done and about to be released at the end of the week approximately. It seems it is a lot more stable and works way better than any qmat version ever before.

Finally, we were able to reverse whole EFS read, add a new alternate EFS factory read for newer MSM >8xxx, add EFS Browsing not only for generic devices but also for devices with only subsys ... and of course added features like rename directory / change modes.

Also we did some gui changes for easy recognition of diag commands.

You can now even cancel running diag processes ! *thanks to adfree for the hint*

So expect Version 4.24 to bring you great new features and more stability :)

I have a problem with my Motorola moto z3 play, I installed the stock rom with oem locked but I lost the IMEI so I can no longer connect to wifi or mobile data, I have a backup of the original rom that I made with twrp but I can't install it because it is with OEM locked and to unlock it I need internet on my cell phone, I've looked on several forums and haven't found any solution.

I would try flashing the A/B partitions from here.

But I'm afraid you'll need to unlock it first; try using internet from USB cable or bluetooth.

[Xiaomi Poco F4 (Munch) / Redmi K40S] e1yesis:
Hi everyone,

I'm planning a dopamine detox by using a smartphone with only the most basic functions (calls, texts, etc.), and I'm considering installing a pre-Android 5 version on my Poco F4 Xiaomi to avoid newer apps.Before I start, I have a couple of questions:Is it possible to install an older Android version on my Poco F4? If so how can I do that?

VidMate

Any advice or alternative strategies for achieving a minimal phone setup?

Appreciate any help or insights you can share!
[Xiaomi Poco F4 (Munch) / Redmi K40S] EllieCat:
Try this

How to Downgrade MIUI 14 to MIUI 13 on Xiaomi, Redmi, or Poco - Downgrade OS

Every year, Xiaomi upgrades MIUI, bringing new features and security enhancements to our Xiaomi, Redmi, or Poco, as well as the odd makeover. MIUI (MIUI 14)

www.downgradeos.com

Or you can switch to a flip phone that can ext and call. Another way is to restrict screen time and set restrictions on addicting apps.
[Xiaomi Poco F4 (Munch) / Redmi K40S] ad1tyx666:
Unfortunately, installing Android 5 on the Poco F4 is not feasible however the latest android version you can likely achieve is Android 12. Additionally, as a recommendation, I highly suggest deGoogling your phone and reducing your use of social media in order to initiate your dopamine detox.
[Xiaomi Poco F4 (Munch) / Redmi K40S] Lismok:
You can install lineage os without gapps and there you have it
[Xiaomi Poco F4 (Munch) / Redmi K40S] waltibaba:
Do you have a link? There is no (somewhat recent) LOS build for munch.

There are practically no recent non-Gapps-infested ROMs for munch, I just found the unadvertised ArrowOS build, but that is also a featurefest. Not even /e/OS, CalyxOS or DivestedOS build for munch, though everyone builds for the almost identical (device tree, partition layout, ...) alioth Poco F3, some for Poco F4GT and increasingly also for marble (Poco F5).

Get a different (dumb-)phone that can only do calls and texts. If you want to do more than that, you should say what you really mean.

Besides the fact that those versions are all deprecated for a decade and filled with critical security vulnerabilities, avoiding "newer apps" doesn't mean avoiding recently-released apps, it means avoiding recently updated apps too, since most are built against newer Android SDK minimum versions. So those will be critical vulnerability-infested bugfests too, if you can even find them.

Technically, you might be able to do it: get device tree sources for munch, get third-party updated version of Android sources (divestOS does some good oldstable work, only down to ca. Android 7 though), and fix all the bugs and SDK incompatibilities that come up when building.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] duhrrom:
Hi all,

My messages app keeps sending notifications multiple times despite of heaving them read, swiping them away or marking as read.

Notifications keep appearing on and on and on. Even dozens of times.

I don't want to completely turn off notifications of my messages app. But it seems to be the only solution.

Did anyone have the same issue? How to solve it?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] simplepinoi177:
If you haven't done the whole force stop, clear cache & clear data, I might try "uninstall updates" and see if you are still having the issue. If not, then customize the settings and see if it's something in the settings. If it still isn't causing issues, then that means it's most likely something with the newest version of the app. You can confirm by updating it to the latest version and seeing/confirming if it happens after updating -- or there's a chance that doing all these previous steps clear out the glitch/bug regardless if it is a version specific issue or not.

If you do get issues before at any point, then it probably means that it's something with your set up on your phone/OS/another-app.
[Android TV General] Kuromaku.Tattav:
Hello everyone!

I need help with rooting my Smart TV. I have searched the web for any guides that would be of any help to me, but wasn't able to find one for my Smart TV. Now, since I don't know how important to the whole process is the TV's manufacturer or any other detail, I come here seeking your professional guidance ... in this case it probably IS better to be safe, than sorry ... if being sorry means having a 50" doormat on my lowboard which once was worth 400€+.

Anyway. Here are the HW's and SW's details, as I know they're always of great potential interest:

Manufacturer: Telefunken

Model: D50V950M2CWH

Android TV Version: 11

Software-Version: R2.0.1.0.0.V0.25.4

Kernel-Version: 4.19.116+ (#1 Fri. Apr. 28 19:05:32 CST 2023)

Android TV OS Build: RTM6.230109.138

I really hope someone can guide me through this process, point me to the right places to go or anything - since I've had at up to here with being patronized by a TV that claims to be smart which itself is operating on one of the worst OS's I have ever seen (besides maybe BeOS ... but then again)

Thank you so much in advance for any efforts!

Live long and prosper!

Kuromaku
[Android TV General] Kuromaku.Tattav:
I already thought this would be a tough one ...

*clearshisthroat*

Okay, if nobody sees a way I could possibly get this device rooted, maybe you could help me set it up to bypass (most / the worst / at least some) of those restrictions?

For example, I can't even use Shizuku, because "Wireless Debugging" is missing in the developer settings. Maybe someone could point me in the right direction?

Another problem: when I insert a USB microSD Card the TV reacts not at all. Am I missing some iimporrttaant information or something?

I just wanna assure you that I am no noob at this whole topic (or so I thought): I rooted phones and tablet, flashed custom ROMs, know how to "alter" apps to make them less curious and such. But all that stuff seems to be restricted to "Android" ... Working wiith "Android TV" feels somewhat like having do drive a car with your arms tied to your back, your knees taped to your chest and your head in the trunk ... of the car riding behind yours.

Any(!) help would be very appreciated. Any step (no matter how small) would help!

I hope someone can help

Yours sincerely (and trying to not lose hope)

Kuromaku

PS: Or maybe - if there's absolutely no hope - link me to some affordable boxes with what you experienced to be a somewhat decent hardware.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vulkkan:
The maximum brightness on all GSIs I've tried on the device doesn't go beyond 255 (value seen in sys/class/leds/lcd-backlight/brightness), but the value of max_brightness from sys/class/leds/lcd-backlight/max_brightness is 4095.

I'm aware that AOSP sets the maximum brightness value to 255, but meanwhile my OEM implementation sets the maximum to 4095.

¶ Phh's misc settings don't fix it.

¶ setprop persist.sys.qcom-brightness "(cat sys/class/leds/lcd-backlight/max_brightness)" has no effect (all adb and shell comands ran as root).

¶ setprop persist.sys.qcom-brightness {any value} also has no effect.

¶ lightsctl BACKLIGHT fff (or any value) gives the Segmentation fault error.

¶ Copying android.hardware.light@2.0 from my stock firmware has no effect.

echo > sys/class/leds/lcd-backlight/max_brightness 4095 sets the brightness to maximum temporarily, but it's undone when the brightness slider is changed.

Pls I need assistance on this.

I have installed custom ROMs before so my Knox flag is also 0x1, which was a bummer because I really wanted to try out Shelter.

It works great, but you have to be rooted.

Hi Guys,

I recently moved to dubai with and bought esim from Etisalat for S24 ultra Indian Version. Since the day one I am not getting 5g or Volte support on etisalat network anywhere in dubai. When I discussed with the technical support of etisalat they informed for the specific model IMS status is not resigtered that means this device is not allowed to get 5g and Volte services on etisalat network however other networks may support 5g on my phone. Is it possible to register the IMS with the help of firmware change or any solution as such. I can't change or port the network on other provider due to waiting period.

[General Questions and Answers] NemoParis:
Is there a similar software as jOnePlustool for Xiaomi phone?

Thanks and Regards.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
As its name implies jOnePlustool is primarily designed for managing and customizing OnePlus smartphones, particularly older models running OxygenOS. It's features are

1. Flashing ROMs and firmware

2. Bootloader unlocking and management

3. Partition management

4. Other OnePlus-specific features

Here are some alternative tools that might work on your Xiaomi phone depending on your specific needs:

General flashing and customization:

Mi Flash Tool

TWRP

OrangeFox Recovery

Unlocking the bootloader:

Xiaomi Unlock Tool

Advanced tools (use with caution):

MTK Droid Tools

UnlockMiTool

If you want to test whether jOnePlustool works with your Xiaomi phone or not depends on several factors:

1. Specific Xiaomi phone model: Different Xiaomi models run on different versions of Android and have varying levels of customization. Some tools might work on specific models but not others.

2. jOnePlustool version: Different versions of jOnePlustool may support different phone models and functionalities. Check the tool's documentation or website for compatibility information.

3. Phone's bootloader status: jOnePlustool is primarily designed for OnePlus devices and might require an unlocked bootloader on Xiaomi phones.
[General Questions and Answers] NemoParis:
Thank you for your answer. My phone is a Xiaomi 13T pro, Android 14, Hyper OS. I just want to be able to record phone calls as I did until not long ago on my previous phone (Xiaomi 10T pro and Truecaller).

I don't want to root the phone, I did these things when I was younger, but I am now too old. I downloaded jroot3d, but I cannot write the instructions. I have not unlocked the boot loader because it did not seem required, but I certainly can do it.

I am surprised that nobody at this stage has not already done something.

Thank you all the same.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] bmancell:
How can I remove items from the All Programs list?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] grahamkdt:
Remove shortcuts....

The items in your 'All Programs' list are shortcuts. You can remove them by deleting the shortcut from the following location:

\windows\start menu\programs

If you do this, they will not only be removed from HTC's program launcher within TouchFlo, but also from the standard 'Programs' list in the start menu. If you delete them and need them back, you will have to find the executable for the required program and create another shortcut for it so you can place it back in the list.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] bmancell:
Thanks, I knew it was simple and if I just looked around in my File Explorer I could of figured that out.
