[Xiaomi 13 Ultra] JohnTheFarm3r:
The Xiaomi 14 Ultra boasts an impressive display panel, but its potential is constrained by its brightness levels during regular use. Xiaomi's development team sometimes implements unconventional ideas and overlooks certain community requests.

What does this mod do exactly?

This mod unlocks a high brightness mode that is otherwise accessible only when the "sunlight" mode is enabled under display settings and the sensor detects direct sunlight. Often, when I am outdoors on a sunny day, the display's brightness remains insufficient for readability because the sensor is not fully exposed to the sun, preventing it from reaching maximum brightness. This limitation can be quite frustrating.

In comparison to other flagship devices, such as my Samsung S23 Ultra, the maximum brightness of the Xiaomi 14 Ultra falls short. The S23 Ultra, for instance, features a high brightness mode (HBM) that can be activated for everyday use even in low ambient light.

Brightness Measurements:

Although these values are not perfectly accurate due to using a monitor colour calibrator, they sufficiently illustrate the differences between the panels. Also, keep in mind, these are values from my 14 Ultra, but they're very similar to 13 Ultra, but I don't have the 13 Ultra anymore and can't do a new measurement to show. 14 Ultra is slightly brighter compared to 13 Ultra, but 13U still suffers from the same curse like 14U with its limited brightness.

Samsung S23 Ultra with stock High Brightness Mode active: 1147.0 cd/m²

Xiaomi 14 Ultra at max stock brightness: 503.0 cd/m²

Xiaomi 14 Ultra at max stock brightness with Sun Light mode activated: 730.0 cd/m²

On paper, the Xiaomi 13 Ultra's panel is capable of higher brightness compared to the S23 Ultra. However, Xiaomi restricts this capability without a clear justification.

And this is the value with my mod active:

Xiaomi 14 Ultra with my mod: 1675.0 cd/m²

The Mod:

Frustrated by the brightness limitations, I developed a mod to unlock the full potential of the Xiaomi 13 Ultra's display. This modification does not interfere with the automatic brightness adjustment and is safe for daily use. It does not harm the display panel, as it operates within the technical specifications of the device. It simply enables you to utilize the full brightness available, typically reserved for direct sunlight scenarios when auto-brightness is enabled.

How to Use:

Flash the mod as a module in Kitsune.

Reboot your device.

Compatibility:

This mod is incompatible with Magisk or KernelSU, as neither can mount the /ODM partition. To my knowledge, Kitsune is the only one capable of mounting this partition, allowing this and other mods to function properly.

With this mod, you can finally experience the true potential of the Xiaomi 13 Ultra’s display, making outdoor readability significantly better and maximizing the impressive capabilities of its display panel.

[General Questions and Answers] Bosshawg502:
I don’t know much about these androids because I switched to iPhone so long ago so please bare with me.

I have two OLD phones, both android. I have forgotten both passcodes and would love to get into them and retrieve some old family photos. Several family members have passed since then and I’m pretty positive these phones are going to be the only place I have any memorable photos. They are probably from around 2010 era give or take a year or two. One is an HTC Amaze 4G positive I.D. The other is a Samsung that I’m having trouble identifying. I believe it’s one of the first Galaxy phones or maybe a Galaxy S. I don’t remember and it’s hard to find that specific phone on google, but it’s from the same era as the HTC. I can not remember if they are the type where you draw the pattern to unlock or just enter a code. I think I remember them maybe being a pattern type especially the HTC.

Long story short, we’re 14 years or so removed from these phones, is there any tools out there now that would allow me to bypass the passcodes and at least get some photos back? They haven’t been updated or patched since probably right after they were new. I have no memory of what version of android they are on etc. I don’t mind paying a little for a software or something. I’m very basic with computers but if it’s somewhat user friendly and I had a helping hand I could probably do it (if it’s possible). Thanks a lot guys and girls
[General Questions and Answers] Renate:
Well, if they are that old there is no encryption.

You should see if ADB is enabled in the regular system.

Try with buttons if you can boot to recovery. ADB there?

Does any of that old stuff have EDL or equivalent?

What are the models? Any idea which Android?
[General Questions and Answers] Bosshawg502:
Honestly I have no clue what ADB or EDL are. One phone is an HTC Amaze 4G. The other i was able to find is out is a Samsung Exhibit 2 4G (SGH-T679) when I took the battery out and looked. Google tells me they both run on Gingerbread Android.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
The Android version codenamed Gingerbread is Android 2.3. It was released in December 2010. Full Disk Encryption (FDE) on Android was first introduced with Android 3.0, codenamed Honeycomb. This version was released in February 2011, but was limited to tablets only. Widespread smartphone adoption of FDE came later with Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) released in October 2011.

AFAIK, ADB (Android Debug Bridge) was included as part of the Android SDK (Software Development Kit) since the very beginning of the Android platform. This means that ADB was available for use with Android 2.3 (Gingerbread), which was released in December 2010.

Conclusion: It should be possible to pull the data of interest via ADB.
[General Questions and Answers] Bosshawg502:
Are there any tutorials or how-to’s on this? Without that I’m the dark as I almost never get that deep into tech stuff. Thanks for the info so far
[General Questions and Answers] Renate:
Have you even charged them up and tried to turn them on?

If you're not sure of PIN vs pattern?

You can plug them into a computer and see if the computer or the phone even reacts at all.

Go to File Explorer, do you see anything?

Go to Device Manager (devmgmt.msc), do you see anything.
[General Questions and Answers] user0u:
If I remember correctly, you'll need to delete the locksettings.db (maybe password.key and gesture.key too) from data/system. The easiest way you can do that is through a custom recovery. You may need to install a file manager like the aroma file manager zip in recovery mode as older recoveries didn't have a file manager.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
@Bosshawg502

even with an FRP lock, an Android Gingerbread device should still boot into recovery mode. Knowing this and knowing that being in Recovery mode you in Recovery mode can launch adb pull commands.
[General Questions and Answers] Bosshawg502:
So that sounds great, but the problem is me being a complete noob. I have no idea what recovery mode is or how to get there, what commands to enter or how, what programs to use on my computer etc etc. I’m really going to need like a complete step by step walkthrough. I don’t know if anyone here has time or even cares to do that but if someone wants to help out I would endlessly appreciate it
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Forgot to mention the solution I mentioned of course only works if USB-Debugging got enabled on the 2 phones: sorry for this.

Have you even tried to charge them yet?
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] Pelvin Ceris:
Can someone help me? I have not found what type of firmware to use for my phone and have tried very hard searching for it. Im also not very used to flashing but i really need to update my ohone as it is stucm on android 10. (Update software says it running the latest version despite running android 10)
[LG G8 Questions & Answers] kt-Froggy:
Here is the latest official Korean Open A12 firmware for 820N variant (this has been the definitive source for LG firmwares):

https://lg-firmwares.com/downloads-file/27229/G820N40c_00_SKT_KR_OP_0901

As for flashing, I don't recall full details (been too long, sorry), but unless you need to unlock BL and root, it's a pretty straightforward process using LGUP. Just look up the topic on this forum, or just follow the instructions (and download links) linked on the page above.
[General Questions and Answers] ElenaXX:
Please do not suddently reply saying to google here (xda) and there, I did so *already* and I came to nothing relevant to my case (or I really missed it ?), so I am asking here.

This has been issued already but in different scenarios.

This is happening on my OnePlus 9 pro with Android 14, OOS 14 but I am posting in this section since I kind of understood it is a generic problem.

As a premise, my phone is rooted (Magisk). All my apps have no issues at saving files to the default Download folder (isn't that its ultimate purpose ????). For example, Firefox downloads files there. And I can access the Download folder with TotalCommander to do whatever I want there.

But NewPipe does not allow me to use the standard Download folder to save videos or audio ! If I pick the Download folder in the Settings, it says "To protect your privacy, choose another folder".

This makes no sense. This is communism, dictatorshiip, my privacy is my stuff and I am free to decide where I want to save my files, in addition my phone is rooted and I paid for it, what else should I do to gain full ownership on it ???

I found they mention the problem here: https://newpipe.net/FAQ/download/ but I must confess: I haven't understood a single bit of their rambling. Again, why all other apps allow me to download files there as it *should be* and NewPipe does NOT ???

It still allows me to use a sub folder eg: Downloads/NewPipe/ but I DON'T WANT THAT by a matter of principle ;)

So my question: is there any system service or app I should disable, in order to become a free individual ? Which one ? Any other hacks or solutions ? Some Magisk settings maybe ? Keep in mind that I am not expert of Android. Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
AFAIK the app it doesn't have a built-in option to directly set a download location within it..

Ask developer of this Youtube client how to fix this annoyance:

Why is it that any contacts app can access the default Android contacts sqlite database & any messaging app can access the default Android SMS/MMS sqlite database - but I can't access it (without me being rooted as my Galaxy A32-5G bootloader is unrootable)?

What is the "power" given to the messaging app that makes it access the default SMS/MMS sqlite database (without me being rooted)?

SMS messages are typically stored in a database managed by your carrier's messaging app or the default messaging app you're using.

Is there any way to access these two sqlite databases on an unrootable Android 13 phone?

Found this on Reddit, not sure who posted it but it works with T-mobile here in the States to get your 5G going. Not sure if it works with any other carrier.

Dial these digits on your phone:

*#*#4636#*#*

Select "Phone Information"

Toggle off "Enable DSDS" - This will turn off Dual Sim Dual Standby

Reboot

5G should be enable.

Don't toggle off and reboot, u need to re-enable dsds then reboot,otherwise the second sim won't work unless u factory reset
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Bo0mcxh402:
alright.. i made a similar post to this before and i came across the wiki...

well i can't view what my SPL or my IPL because as soon as i turn the device on, all that shows is the boot loader screen and displays serial on the top with 0.16-0.90 in red characters on the bottom (I'm not sure what those are)...

here are the only details that i know about my phone:

I DON'T have hard SPL

My Original ROM i was using before was an htc windows mobile 5 rom

The reason that my phone is bricked right now is because the usb cable disconnected in the middle of the flash

I'm using Windows Vista for flashing

Computer won't recognize the phone when on usb

My phone (qtek 9600) can't load the operating system

*EDIT*

THE PHONE IS STUCK ON BOOTLOADER WHEN I TURN IT ON, NOTHING ELSE, BUT THE BOOTLOADER SCRREN DOESN'T SHOW MY SPL AT ALL.

ALSO, MY COMPUTER DOESN'T RECOGNIZE THE PHONE....... MY PHONE HAS A TYPE 2A BRICK

Helping me will be greatly appreciated :D

come on.. I'm without a phone :(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] vwkess:
Do you have a 2GB or smaller SD card? Copy a rom image to it and rename it HERMIMG.NBH

Turn it on and you might get lucky!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ultramag69:
Just make sure its stock rom that was supplied, or the updated WM06 version as the CID should check out then...

vwkess forgot to mention, reset into bootloader, hold power, ok button and reset with stylus. Hold all buttons in until you get to the tri-colour screen. If it works, follow the prompts....

Cheers...:D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] rajivlodha:
hi,

i think i can hlep.

i had recently bricked my phone with a custom wm6 image, it worked fine for two days and then i reboot, and all i see was the welcome image, nothing else.

so what i did is -

i pressed the hard reset buttons - power + OK + SOFT RESET (Stylus), kept it pressed for 3-4 seconds, the fone rebooted, the screen was full with some colored bricks :mad: i connected my fone in USB and on screen i saw USB.

I then again flashed my fone with the working update, it worked perfectly for me, try may be you can get some luck

ps - before doing all these, i turned my fone off by removing the battery, i removed sim card and mmc card as well.

regards
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ultramag69:
That may work too, but again, try to flash with a stock rom, untick "connect with USB" in activesync and then try.

Make sure you go to boootloader screen, instruction in rajivlodha's post, before you connect to the pc.

Goodluck...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] zbach:
I need some help as well.

I think I may have bricked my phone. It's a rooted htc hero cdma. I'm running cyogenmod on it and it was working fine, until using metamorph to apply some changes to the theme.

I went to reboot, and it now it won't load past the htc screen. Even when i try the key combination to put it into recover mode. I didn't install a nandroid backup, and i'd be fine with just completely wiping my phone. help is appreciated.

[Google Pixel 7 Pro] p51d007:
Non rooted, on the latest beta. I've noticed and odd sound issue that pops up from time to time.

Doesn't matter if it is connected to my car stereo, blue tooth external speakers or just the speaker in

the phone.

Once in a while, when playing an audio file, the sound level drops in half even if at full volume, and

(here's the weird part), it is SERIOUSLY distorted. To the point is sounds like distorted mush.

Rebooting the phone, the problem does away. Might not do it again for days. But rebooting will

restore the audio.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Locoman_:
From today's beta release... maybe it'll fix it?

Android 15 Beta 3.1 (July 2024)

This minor update to Android 15 Beta 3 includes the following fixes:

Fixed issues that caused the lock screen to intercept touch input and prompt the user to unlock the device, even when interacting with elements on the lock screen that don't require the device to be unlocked. (Issue #348101427, Issue #345873537)

Fixed an issue that sometimes caused biometric face authentication to fail.

Fixed various other issues that were impacting system stability, connectivity,

and audio quality

.

All eligible devices enrolled in the Android Beta for Pixel program will be offered an over-the-air (OTA) update to Beta 3.1.

Battery failure or possible port failure.

Visually inspect C port for dust. If present clean it gently with a clean toothbrush and a blower bulb if you have one.

If the battery is 2 years or older on a heavily used device it's likely the battery.

I really hate this. I've seen all sorts of issues, but never seen anything like this: I kept putting off running the latest (June 2024) update, then last Thursday I did allow it to run - and the phone NEVER booted back. It reaches the pink T-Mobile screen and that's it.

I know there's some Qualcomm tool I could try to unbrick it - where do I find the correct thread about it? Thank you!

Of course, if you know another trick I can try I'd really appreciate it, I really need to get some of my data out of it (custody trial etc, my brand new OP12 was dropped during an accident back in March and still waiting to be repaired etc).

My wife's 11 T Pro has been stressing me out lately.

The phone has been on a battery-draining spree since I updated the firmware to Hyper OS. I've seen it going from 45% to 0 over overnight. This bugger shuts down often during the day with moderate usage, which wasn't the case when it was on MIUI. Is anyone else facing similar issues? Any idea what's the issue? Suggestions/solutions would be welcome.

Check automatic startup of apps.
