[Completed] [Q][Help] Samsung Gt-i5500 Broken screen - XDA Assist

Good morning folks. I'm Shadow,recently i found a old phone of mine that have a broken screen,and i know that it don't have the Debug USB enabled,it's all stock,no customization has been made on that phone. now,i need to recover the phonebook from that phone. they were saved into the Mobile's memory,not the SD,nor the sim, nor the Google Account. I've searched in the whole internet to a solution,i haven't find anything that can help me to enable the debug USB. i've found some tools that can might help me,like [email protected] and "Android Control". But those won't help me if i can't enable the USB Debug. Does anybody here have something to enable it? From the thread of the Android control tool i read that a kernel developer might help me to do it,but i can't find any.
I really need to recover that phonebook,there's a lot of people that i wan't to talk to,but i no longer have their number because of the phone.
Thanks a lot in advance,and sorry for the trouble.

PS: I'm new with these kind of stuff,so if anybody want to help,please,be patient.

Hello, and welcome to XDA Assist! Have you looked in Developer Options? If you go to Settings> About Phone> Build number and tap 7 times, you will have Developer Options available. In there, you will find the option to enable Android Debugging.
Good luck!

Hi! Ok, then you might want to try this: [Tool][Windows] Control a device with a broken screen. Now with touchscreen support!!. There is an explanation for what to do if you don't have adb enabled. And for future questions that you may have, you can ask in that thread. Good luck!

[Q] LG P350 - Which program is best for rooting?

Hello, as the tittle says I'm asking which program is best for rooting an LG Optimus Me P350? I have searched high and low for the best program, but can't seem to find a definitive answer.
Also the various superoneclick, z4root, unrevoked, gingerbreak and so on, don't have this model listed.
So can anyone confirm which program is the best one to use?
Moderator could you make an LG Optimus Me P350 thread, since it doesn't have its own and I see in post that it has been asked before?
Hope someone can help
With kind regards
JBJ
The programm hasn't any model listed, it's universal. This means, it's not specified to any device. Try that, btw, we need to know which Androidversion you're using right now.
And I think it's not allowed to ask for the best programm, but in the rules it only says: It's not allowed to ask for the best ROM/Kernel
Please press THANKS, instead saying thanks.

Sorry to say this, but as a senior member you should know that is actually not true since many of these programs has a list of phones they don't work with. My problem is that the model my GF is using, the P350, is not on either lists.
My other problem is that she is in the Philippines and I'm in Denmark - the need for rooting is so that I can install software on her phone and remote control it and set it up with Gmail and google play - then download skype to it! Since she has no idea how to configure the phone, but I do.
I'm just not an expert on rooting
And to answer the software question, its the stock 2.2.2 that the phone came with from factory.
But thank you for your input
With kind regards
JBJ
My own phone is Samsung Galaxy Ace plus S7500, which has no need to be rooted since it works perfectly.
use this tookit to root p350
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1816199
also you can use this toolkit to install custom recovery
Thanx for that Ron, that is info I can use Btw, I can't post in that thread, so could you ask the antdking for complete procedure - for those of us who are new to rooting?
I think you need to set USB Debugging to ON(under setting->Applications->Development) but its not mentioned in the thread, so I'm not sure if its necessary or not. Could you ask antdking?

Hi. yes usb debugging needs to be on. as for all the procedures, there's a step by step guide built into the toolkit. It is all automated, and no ones experienced problems while rooting.
For what you need I don't recommend you put recovery on to her device
edit: also added enabling usb debugging to the thread to make it clearer. However it does say in the toolkit itself to enable it
Hi antdking and Ron G, thanks for that
Just another question, when finished rooting is it still possible to update the phone the normal way through LG's Software or do one need to use a program like Odin to do so?
I realize that if one updates the phone then it needs to be re-rooted after.

yes it can be updated, and yes it will need a re-root afterwards. but LG are unlikely to release any more updates now
Hi again, thank you for that info
Something else I got to think about, do you Turn ON the USB storage when connecting the USB cable to the phone, or do you leave that OFF?
Normally when you want to access the SD card you turn this ON.

Hi, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
I'm interested in what you mean by "crushed." Sounds like something physical was done to it.
At any rate, unfortunately, we currently do not have a forum (or a tag) for your device. but there is a general-purpose thread. Please go ahead and register for an account, so you can post i other forums. From there, you will probably have best luck with the foll.owing thread:

Yeah, it sounds like the internal memory got borked, and without adb your options are quite limited.
As mentioned before, I would explain your predicament in the above thread (I see you have posted there already, can just edit the post to add the predicament). There won't be much of an audience, but it is better than the general help thread (and you have the advantage of bouncing ideas off someone who has the same device as you).
Hope this helps.
Thank you.

[Completed] Need help with fastboot

Hello everyone. I'm new here and I'm looking for someone who can help me with step by step to uhh... fix my phone. It's a Lenovo s650 and I have tried to flash it via fastboot, but to no avail. And because of that, I'm here now. Please take a note that I'm not that good with these things so please bear with me. Anyhow, the phone is now kinda retarded. You know those pop ups, saying that something has stopped working, yeah... basically, I'm getting spammed by em'. So, there's no time really for me to do anything on the phone like going to the settings or even changing the usb mode to debugging without being bombarded by em' every sec. Thus, the reason why I want to flash it. (cause I think flashing is like turning them back to beginning, like after a reset?) Oh, and before that I have already tried hard reset. That, of course, didn't work. :crying:
Please help
P.S. Sorry if something is wrong with my English. But I hope it's adequate enough for you guys to understand what I'm trying to say.

HELP needed - root/unlock a meeting room device

Hello all,
I have some leftover Condeco T201502 V2 meeting room devices, which were for a project that is no longer in place.
They use some sort of custom ROM based on an app interface.
I would like to repurpose them to something else, but in order to do that, I need to unlock them and slap some custom ROM in their place.
Does anyone have any clue how to get them to a point in which I can upload a different version?
Thank you in advance!

I was considering it, but "Hey guys, I wanna repurpose your hardware" sounds weird.
I also tried many options with different ROMs and solutions, but fail to be able to send them to the device..

we live in wierd times, do ask them, just nicely.
I took a glance at the specs and SoC, I'm not familiar with it and it's a very speciffic SoC so the folks here who know how to work with 'em low level are few and far between.
assuming there's a settings tab/screen do the usual device info > build number > 7 taps and Dev Ops > unlok OEM and enable USB debuging to reboot into fastboot and flash custom stuff that way

To flash a Custom ROM a Custom Recovery ( like TWRP ) is required. It can't be done via Stock Recovery or ADB Sideload method.
Fastboot method may be a solution, but requires an unlocked bootloader.

Version 0B16 broke everything app/downgrade related. If you are on 0B15, check and see if your Gabb is downgradeable.
Check your software version by going to settings -> about
Hello all! I am the guy who made the last post about having apps on the Gabb Phone Z2. Since I made that post, many sneaky kids and teenagers have come up with ways that we could possibly hack our way into the phone, installing apps.
Now, throughout the development and such, I was gone. I got rid of my Gabb Phone a week after that post was made. I made a video on how you could get YouTube videos on the Gabb phone, by downloading them as MP4s and simply moving them to a folder on the Gabb phone itself. However, even though I can't be exact and close, my brother just got one so I'm back here again! Helo
The original bug was that you could go to PRIVACY -> PRIVACY MANAGER -> Search icon in the top right ->Search "auto" and click on autofill in developer settings, then turn it on.
From there you could install apps by enabling USB Debugging, and installing from ADB. However this was patched in an update. Even if you had developer options and usb debugging enabled, usb debugging was removed from the phone itself. It will not work.
Thanks to Users Howl1346, and ryujin88, we've gotten a guide on how to downgrade. i can't stress this enough, if you have a phone that is on 0B16 and above, was manufactured after December 2020, and hasn't been backed up using mtkclient, don't do this. Always take a backup with mtkclient, just in case something goes wrong.
Ever since then, we've mostly been talking about how we need someone to make a custom rom, or a modified one with Gabb Wireless' apns. (They do not work on the other carrier phone's roms.) I do not know how to make a custom rom and am not sure how to learn, so I'll leave it to some other people. EDIT: this doesn't look like its going to happen for now.
I DONT WANT ANYONE SHARING EMAILS PLEASE, keep it open here, and I'll post anything that we found on our discord to here. https://discord.gg/GhAwuUrvrh

Could you change the system files to allow developer mode to be or maybe enable developer mode through the system files?
Take a look at these tools
GitHub - bkerler/mtkclient: MTK reverse engineering and flash tool
MTK reverse engineering and flash tool. Contribute to bkerler/mtkclient development by creating an account on GitHub.

We should be able to reverse engineer download mode and get the rom. We can then make changes to it and flash it back to the phone.

Have you tried "oem adb_enable 1"?
I am constantly trying new ways to make this work. Does anyone have any information that will make a 2021 model work? Was talking with @calvertcrew and he says my 2021 model will brick if i follow the google doc. I have also been trying to convinve gabb to send me a personal update to have devoloper options while trying to pass as a devoloper.
Help would be appriciated.

It's when you use adb/fastboot. It's a command for when you put the phone in bootloader mode. The full command is "fastboot oem adb_enable 1". It allows you to tell the rom to trust the computer when the phone boots and automatically has adb enabled on boot.

Please try them by yourself before telling other people (most likely kids) to do the same. It makes the whole thing more confusing for anybody looking, and floods up the thread.
You're welcome to join the discord to try things out though.
