    • RE: OnePlus just informed me they will NOT unlock bootloader for a device on bought on Ebay.

      @oldbutndy i actually know the partitions youre looking for because I had to recover IEMI (a whole other can of potentially ilegal worms) you want to mess around in nvdata/cfg/ram i doubt it but you can check protect1/2 (sometimea called R/L) most likely its in some sort of *loader.bin i tell you the bootloader configs usually sit in some preloader so check for that.

    • RE: Website Devices Page - VoLTE

      @wally i had this same question, i looked at the repo for the site there is an MR from maintainer with VoLTE support documentation, its just sitting there I think.

      I don't remember exactly why its not being merged but you can ask in that MR I bet you'll get an answer at minimum.

      @oldbutndy i dont think a port will just happen somebody needs to activly work on it, with amount of money you spent on N10s if you sell those and buy a used Fairphone it would be better.

      @oldbutndy not really it would help a lot yes but you can use standard reverse engneering software to check it, also engneering roms have unlocked bootloader so you just compare that to the oldest release if an engneering rom exists.

    • RE: Has video/media playback improved?

      @hlbkv i do not have the device but as long as its not a spec problem video playback works, its a solved problem on pretty much all devices nowdays.

      i can confirm video playback works on N100 and surely that is one of the more underpowered device that can run UT.

    • RE: "Are we mainstream-ready yet?"

      @developer there are some freedesktop standards we need, also flatpak integration, outside of that we need eSIM support and way way better waydroid support.

      outside of that we need a waydroid compatibilty chart for every major banking app in every country

      we also need guides to what messanger has what feature supported natively and how to set it up.

      also we probably want to make a public transport app and start supporting every single country we can.

      we also need sms forwarding (i remember people asking about it in the forums)

      a secure wallet for NFC, so someone needs to expose the treble APIs for hardware backed encryption so we can store credit card NFC tags safely. (to please the google/apple pay users)

      and much much more.
      we need to compile every UT feature and aspire to feature parity with vanila android (not the apps just pure android)

      i'd make a full comparison chart but i dont have the time 😞

    • RE: OnePlus just informed me they will NOT unlock bootloader for a device on bought on Ebay.

      @oldbutndy you can try the EU version, from there you can flash firmware directly from OS. (EU version can flash an OTA file from android)
      so get an OTA update and check if it overrides fastboot to something useable then take an OTA that does and flash it (if its version is older then what you have then do the proccedure with an older EU ROM)

      this is the only thing i can think of short of cracking the phone open and starting to dump chip data, or if you can dump NAND dump from there and try to manually patch firmware directly. (after all theres a boolean somewhere for bootloader unlocked y/n)

    • RE: Back from PostmarketOS stuck in debug shell

      @toniox if the phone is mediatek, use spflashtool.
      its a pain in the *** to do, i recommend using windows for rhis because otherwise you'll need a custom kernel and all the tutorials will use windows.

      the steps go like this:

      1. download drivers, and set them up
      2. use bootrom bypass tool
      3. flash with sp flash

      i recommemd dumping nvdata,nvram,nvcfg,protect1,protect2 from NAND using spflashtool before flashing anything at all (think of it like youre phones ID it is needed for service ,wifi ,bluetooth)

      there is also ways to regenerate the checksums so with lockee xiaomi bootloader you can run custom code but i dont really remember how i managed that one.

    • RE: More Apps Please!!

      @gpatel-fr oh thats great, did you need to config bindmounts or did it just work?

      as for xdg desktop portal filechooser backend it won't be to hard to implement some elements but its in the backburner until i get the infurstructure for it right

      also for keyboard thats an easy fix you need to include a cache file look to ufirefox/uwolf for example on how to get gtk apps to use maliit

    • RE: OnePlus just informed me they will NOT unlock bootloader for a device on bought on Ebay.

      @oldbutndy download the EU firmware (EOL) and the real firmware for your version for EOL, then copy the identifers in the scatter xml file from that version to the EU one, then flash through EOL phone will check see T-mobile or whatever it is you have pass the check and flash EU rom with unlockable bootloader worked on my N100

    • RE: OnePlus Nord N10 5G - It's Minty!

      @bgriffis for sms forwarding its either not implemented or in some dbus function that may or may not be documented, you may be best served by figuring out a solution on you're own for that.

      you can probably write some code based on the message app to get sms and then send it to a number and put it as a background service.

      EDIT:
      i will say this, a lot of things are not implemented because developers were not aware at the time or people forgot.

    • RE: More Apps Please!!

      @tigermoth instantpho is a photo editor, not gimp level but its something to check out.

      also after exam season i will be continuing development of xdg-desktop-portal backend for lomiri which will make xdg apps integrate well, my goal is to eventually have flatpak natively on ut.

      @oldbutndy you can try to spoof firmware and flash EU ROM through EOL.

    • RE: Some questions

      @pparent yeah i know, im drowning in exams right now and I'm also foucsing on making xdg-desktop-portals supported in lomiri as you know and that's more important because it will make the only problem a UI problem which is better then manually patching apps to work with lomiri alternatives.

    • RE: uWolf (LibreWolf)

      @Keneda missed that thanks, @googlybear well still nothing I can do about it directly.
      though I am implementing the xdg-desktop-portal standard into lomiri atm, so this may indirectly help you because there are a bunch of xdg bitwarden apps.

      @gpatel-fr yeah, I have things to do but in the weekend I'll refine this more the only reason I'm not taking this down is because I'm doing it on mt FP5 and it has not exploded yet... so I may be good until the weekend.

      @TheTrench said in Guide to charge limiting your Fairphone 5:

      i'd need to do some testing yes, but this could be implemented as a sort of universal way to charge limit UT devices, if its that wide-spread I might just add this feature in lomiri system settings under battery because this has actually come up during a devsync.
