Renate ,

The lower of the two pinhole points in the photo reads 1.9 from the positive lead when grounding to a plate nearby (diode test mode), the pinhole lower reads nothing. What color line with a USB-C cable split connects to the lower for data? Playing around I did get a split second response (USB discovery) by connecting green to the lower and negative to the upper (unless it was just crossed wires), but I have not been able to reproduce it since (the pinhole contacts are so close and small).
[Hardware Hacking General] Renate:
Always check voltage first, then (and only then if it measures zero) the diode test.

Are you talking about connecting some wire from the USB to some point on the main board??? DON'T!

Wires in USB can carry 3.3V to 5V. 90% of the points on the main board are designed for less than 1.8V
[Hardware Hacking General] project_2501:
How am I going to estabilish a connection with the test point for edl if not splicing one of the USB wires? I was able to establish a connection, but it's reporting as an unrecognized device and is not showing up in device manager (event states something about an LPC controller) from what I can see and I have the correct QUD drivers installed.
[Hardware Hacking General] Renate:
YOU ARE MIXING UP TWO UNRELATED THINGS!

USB is USB

EDL test points are EDL test points

NEVER the twain shall should ever meet.

You might have already blown everthing up.

Disconnect it all and see if you can see any normal USB activity.
[Hardware Hacking General] project_2501:
It's fine still, and displaying as 900E. My thought here is reroute the wire/circuit so that the test point is in contact instead of where it normally would be at the port on the board. Meaning attach the green wire to the contact point and nothing else (which is the data wire from my understanding). How else could I make this connection directly?
[Hardware Hacking General] Renate:
DVM on 20 Volt DC range.

Black lead on some tin metal shield.

Measure the voltage.

If a point measures zero-ish (0.little) switch the meter to diode test and measure that point.

Report your measurements.
[Hardware Hacking General] project_2501:
1.8 DC at point (while powered on, meaning the board has power via USB after disconnecting the battery sockets (or else board doesn't register at all while plugged in via USB); 1.9 through diode test. So bypassing the green wire to the test point and plugging it in should communicate as 9008 is my thought.
[Hardware Hacking General] Renate:
There are two points there. I don't know which you mean.

Black stays on tin.
[Hardware Hacking General] project_2501:
lower pinhole point registers 1.9 || 1.8, upper point does not display any current
[Hardware Hacking General] Renate:
You mean voltage??

DVM on diode test, black on tin, red on upper TP, hold the power button for 10 seconds, release power while still holding red.
[Hardware Hacking General] project_2501:
Yes volts. 1.1 on upper when running as diode test once off.
[Hardware Hacking General] Renate:
Who said anything about off?
[Hardware Hacking General] project_2501:
It's very difficult to test any other way, the devices construction is quite complicated and the power button is housed inside a camera.
[Hardware Hacking General] project_2501:
It's very difficult to test any other way, the devices construction is quite complicated and the power button is housed inside a camera. Is it not possible to reroute the green (data wire) to the lower test point and the rest through the USB port like normal? This is starting to look like neurosurgery. Crashdump should not ever be before EDL in logical order, or without a way to kill it via keys or perhaps a usb-c keyboard. Qualcomm leaves me questioning who decided this was a good idea?
[Hardware Hacking General] Renate:
Well, that last sentence was not so much a test as to put it in EDL mode.

It's very difficult to put it into EDL mode if it's off.

Solder or tape a wire to the upper test point.
[Hardware Hacking General] project_2501:
The green wire from USB on the upper? It responds while tapping the lower point with the green wire while plugged in, but I assume the flood of data from 900E prevents the 9008 discovery. I forgot to mention: I have two USB cables, one stays plugged into the port to provide power the other I was tapping the points with the green wire form a seperate USB cable. The final product (wire used) should be only one USB plugged in with the green wire pulled and feeding data to that (upper) test point, correct?
[Hardware Hacking General] Renate:
GEEEZ!!!!

Get your mind off USB wires.

USB WIRES ONLY GO TO USB WIRES.

WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT USB.

I have no idea what you're doing.

I'm done here.
[Hardware Hacking General] project_2501:
What could of been accomplished here ended in failure with the device in the same state; and even if it were recovered, it would of returned to another state that I didn't want it in either. Until an exploit is found I don't believe there is an option that could allow for a write or change to NV data granting the loader unlock. I tested this method prior to the point I was at today with the device.

I applied what you wrote about the differences of cables and wasn't successful in triggering the device back to EDL. The ports on the computer used are USB 2.0 btw. I suspect a patch wasn't present and mismatched with the other chain of trust versions that put it in a state that I just didn't have the patience for (the hardware itself made the job very challenging). With perseverance it might of been possible, who knows?
[Hardware Hacking General] project_2501:
Renate ,

The above in the end was very helpful and great reference for how to find and confirm test points.

Hello, I just bought a Samsung S24 and used Google Voice for calls and texts beforehand. I ported my Google Voice phone number and no longer use it, but would like to transfer all of my texts to my new phone.

I exported everything ok via Google Takeout which put it in HTML format. How can I import the texts into my Messages app on the phone?

I tried these apps that don't work / can't find a valid file when I point them to the extracted files on my Internal Storage:

- SMS Backup

- SMS Backup & Restore

Googling shows some apps but idk if they are safe or malware?

Thanks for the reply. Do you know any particular best converter for text format I'm working with?

If I convert and the pics from the texts are separate files (screenshot above), will SMS Backup and Restore know to import them or do I just accept that I'll lose pics from the restore?

Hi everyone.

Recently aquired one of the 2024 s6 lites, model number SM-P620

Is there any support for these models yet, in terms of being able to flash custom firmware?

I have searched the web, but thought maybe someone may have something in the works potentially!

Thanks in advance

[General Questions and Answers] Astania:
Would like to ask a question about Styles pen for tablet is it normal that once loaded to 100% is discharging even when disconnected from Bluetooth and not used is near the tablet hidden in a case pen holder but when I connect to pen after few hours I see the battery level dropped to 50 % and for example after a few hours of not using pen .

Is it normal or my pen is damaged?
[General Questions and Answers] EllieCat:
have you replaced the battery recently?
[General Questions and Answers] Astania:
No, the pen is new, I have it few days only
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
It’s not uncommon for stylus pens to discharge even when disconnected from Bluetooth and not in use.
[General Questions and Answers] Astania:
This is from me very weird I had fully charged pen and after some time without using it it has 0% of battery now I want to draw some sketches and I can't do it because Xiaomi Focus pen is totally discharged...

Are you really sure that it is not damaged?
[General Questions and Answers] EllieCat:
Does it disconnect from the device even when it is charged? You could also replace the battery or Bluetooth module as well.
[General Questions and Answers] Astania:
Actually I disconnected it by hand because I want to save the battery and I want to use it only when I need it I don't need be connected all the time.

My question is simple is it normal that stylus is discharging even in it is not used and it is only near the tablet?

My pen is on warranty period so I don't need to replace anything I just can send it back for replacement or service

I just wrote a message to the support of xiaomi and let's see what they answer
[General Questions and Answers] panjaksli:
Do you turn off Bluetooth in the tablet when not using the pen ? I connected the pen after like a week of lying on the desk, and it was still charged at 95 %. I would return it.
[General Questions and Answers] Astania:
No actually I didn't disable Bluetooth I only disconnected the pen in Bluetooth panel I touch the blue field and it made gray so I thought that this is not connected now. And I kept the pen near the tablet because my case has a small holder to hold the pen with the tablet. So I'll give it another try I totally disabled Bluetooth while the pen is charged at 100% now I totally disabled the Bluetooth and put pen on the desk and I will wait till tomorrow and I have see whether the pen will discharge. The place on tablet that connects to the pen in some distance causes a magnetic odpychanie, maybe it's the reason why's the pen discharging automatically?

[General Questions and Answers] panjaksli:
At least they reply to you. That ridiculous discharge rate is not normal at all.
[General Questions and Answers] ophidion:
Hello. I tried Xiaomi Smart pen 2 before. It is really smart it keeps charge for more than one week. reconnects rapidly jusg by touching screen.

The algorithm of Focus pen is not smart as in smart pen 2. I need to recharge it daily. It has that useless button for me (3rd button) i think it is the reason why it discharges rapidly! Any way just turn off bluetooth to make it keep charge. As I noticed if we donot turn off bluetooth, as long as the pen is close to the screen it discharges as if it is writing.

The problem is it when turn on bluetooth the focus pen doesnot turn on untill you put it at charging magnet or wait a couple of minutes 🙄

[Fire TV Themes and Apps] shaunoleary:
Depending on the source for your TV guide, the best solution I've found is Kodi, which has an excellent guide feature built in. All you need to do is give it a link to an xmltv guide, and it's done. Also Kodi has excellent management for your IPTV channels, the sky's really the limit.

BTW I'm a bit jealous you have a rooted Fire TV. You're very lucky.

Hey guys, hope this post is in good forum. I really need help.

My mom has 64 GB 8 pro. Yesterday I bought her sd card goodram 128 GB and couldnt move apps there so I found a way with launcher - set as internal storage. Did this and maybe wasnt perfect - in settings it shows 47 occupied / 116 GB, in details it shows minus few milions b/64 GB and in APP MGR III it shows 128 GB sd and 64 GB internal. But I decided to leave it as it was. She got extra 85 free GB space ( I bet on real phone storage left system)

Everything was fine but today she called me and told that she cant make screenshots and phots. I checked. It was saying SD card is removed. So I removed card and placed it again. Nothing. Even info about disconect gone. Without sd card it shows now 64GB/64GB full. 17 GB of apps - so they didnt move to sd coz they works fine. And 64 GB full of system ?! After few seconds phone crash to main screen. With card memory shows nothing and also crash. With and without card can see some photos but most of them cant. It says there are 5k files but most cant be read.

When I plug card to PC then I see USB DISK and need format. When I plug phone with and without sd card to pc it shows empty.

I really have to restore at least photos and videos but how?? With using some program on computer? Some app on phone? But cant install anything now :/ I found info that card is encrypted by phone but how to unlock it now?

I didnt do any format of phone and card yet.

MIUI 12.0.5 Android 10. I think no root. Its original from store.

Please help me guys, mom had there lot of memories and I failed :/

Hi all,

I have a bit of a weird problem: I upgraded the firmware of my Poco F3 a rather long time ago. Now I want to upgrade to LOS21 and need to upgrade the phone's firmware accordingly. Unfortunately, I don't remember whether I had the global or the EEA variant and, thus, am unsure which firmware to chose from LOS website. Can you help me find out which version is the correct one for me? or doesn't it matter in the end whether I chose EEA or global?
