No

Seems like you got robbed, whatever carrier sold you that phone decided that you have no right to control your device.
Never post your IMEI around.

I forgot to cover it before posting. But, yeah, that's Vodafone. They unlocked the device, told me this would change the bootloader allowed. But, no luck as of yet.
I was told I should try software repair via Xperia companion to see if it changes it.
Gonna try that at some point.

That will not change anything,
There is no way to change it unless you are in possession of the signed keys from sony.

If you are employed by Sony in their developer section and you work your way up to the top, then maybe you will have access to them. By that point you will know how to use them.
If you are not employed by Sony and work in their development section, then no, there is no way to get them.
Please be assured. If your bootloader is not allowed to be unlocked THERE IS NO WAY TO CHANGE THIS.

Doubt about bootloader

Hello,
I'm interested in the Sensation, but i've readed the problem about the bootloader. My question is: do you think we will have an unlocked one? (official or not)
The custom recovery has saved me a lot of times
And how much time do you expect? (1 month, 1 year,2,never?) [i know it's a difficult question]
Did you even read the headlines of the other topics in here???

We could answer but unless we have an insider at HTC leaking info or are a developer it would all be purely speculation. You'd have a better chance at guessing how many grains of salt are in a shaker accurately than guessing when they will have it done.

Yes, but there are one saying that they have said that they will unlick it. Another saying the first one is a fake and another one with intructions about flashing one ROM using clockmodwork, but clockmodwirk uses a custom boot (i think). So i really didn't understand it.
It's more easy when you have been following the news for a while than just arrive
Sorry for the inconvenients
HTC have not made any statements on which current devices, if any, will get their bootloaders unlocked, so we don't know.

[Q] Revolver / Prime / root my new Asus TF?

I have a new Asus TF with this information

}
Can I use Revolver or Prime?
And can I root? If not root, when I would iy be possible to root?
And would it be easiere to root/change rom? Easy as change it like with Samsung Galaxy S2(with Odin or CWM)?
Wrong language in picture, change it.
Post in the right subforum for a beginning
What is the serial number on your TF? It will start with a B. Also - I'm confused - the post aside, why would this not belong in the Q/A subforum? I just want to be clear. Generally I get when posts don't belong somewhere, but isn't this usually where this sort of thing goes?
Well NOW it is, but it first was in the DEV section. thanks moderator
Ok, thanks for right section
But where to find serial number then?
I now it was on the box, and it started on B8 and something, but I don`t remember rest off if.
And I have trash the box
Again thanks
It's on the bottom near the opening for the power plug
if it's b8, then no. there's no root method for you atm. (and therefore, no custom roms also)
also, take it from me, do not lose your box/serial number, you'll need it when you want to RMA your device. i need to do the battery fix for my dock, but i no longer have it...so i'm a bit SOL
you can also register your device at asus, that might be a nicer alternative.
there's also a sticker somewhere in your device that should have the serial number.

But I think/hope that will be fixed soon or later
I will register my Asus TF @ Asus`s web.

Can anyone help me identify this? [SOLVED: FAKE GALAXY S6]

Hi.
So i got an s6 from eBay.
It's not reacting to my touch. (it is, but with insane delay and barely!)
Couldn't figure this out.
Suddenly or occurred to me that something is fishy since home screen should not be organized like this (this is AFTER full reset!)
(why would twitter be inside a folder named Google?)
Also looks to be non-stock.
Here's a pic.
Can anyone tell me what am I dealing with here?
Does not seem to be running the usual Samsung rom.
Was this device tinkered with?
Also see video here:
https://vid.me/29AP
Thank you!

Is it a real S6?
Theres a thread in the General section about how to try and spot a fake S6.
that article mentions the fake ones are running droid 4.x, but thats not to say they haven't mucked with the version number on it.

Yes you got a copy of the galaxy s6. thats why its running so slow.
these fakers might as well build a phone with the effort they put into these!!!! it's insanely crafted!!! if software wasn't as ****ty - might have missed it!!
(one of them is actually quite snappy)

Since you bought off eBay. Did you pay via paypal?
Just lodge a claim against them for selling a fake item.
Make sure and screenshot the ebay listing as well
Yes I will definitely file a claim. Thank you.
Everyone else - BE WARNED!!!
My advice:
Turn off phone.
Press and hold power button + volume down button.

LG V20 security defeated but voice...

Hopefully LG patches this OTA asap!

As long as you don't select the option to allow Google to unlock your phone with your voice, this isn't an issue, nor is it's LG's problem.

Thanks for that. Maybe LG should hire you as calling them they said there was no fix and I don't remember ever turning that option on.... Going to have to test if someone elses voice can unlock it.

Exactly. This is a google issue.
This thread is so misleading, and so is the video. This can be done on all phones with the Google app on it. The setting has been there for a while. OP should at least make an edit to topic/post and/or switch the video into a PSA of sorts. Advice people on how the setting works and to give best practices like training their voice.

no doubt, trust zones keep my phone unlocked when at my home. keeps it unlock when it detects it is still on my person and hasn't changed hands, and many other trusted things you can set. turn these off and I bet he has a harder time unlocking
lol a joke.. without trusted voice my phone tells me it cannot be completed while device is locked..
ppl just never learn lol not a bypass at all
So if there's any confusion, it only works with what Google detects as your voice. I tested with multiple family members, and only one got it.
But he's my identical twin and our voices are almost the same.
Can someone else try having their SO or a buddy try to get in? Pretty sure they won't.

Stop update to Android 12.

Is there a way to stop the auto update to 12? I had to send mine to Nokia to get downgraded back to 11 cause for one thing, it killed the dual SIM capability. Then, i just hate the UI and refuse to pay for apps to fix the look. I have looked everywhere and all the guides say to go to a certain place and disable them, but that doesnt exist in Android ONE i guess. I dont really want to try a custom ROM cause im sure it wont support dual SIM either.
Find the OTA update app and do a adb edit to disable it. Package Disabler has a variant for model other than Samsung, that might work too.
On Samsung's they look like this, ws.dm is the prime offender...

Where do you find this?
I use this. For non-Samsung devices navigate towards the bottom of that page. You can contact them by email with a question too.

I would not recommend this sites app to anyone. I tried to buy it last night and 24hrs later, I still have no app to download. I found your post from a Google search. Email went unanswered.

Give them a business day or two... jeeesze. Do a charge back on the card if you must. I've been using them for over 3 years, no worries, as I am now.
