Two pins above main cam, top is tx and bottom is Rx. Make sure to add to cmdline if you want kernel output

ok, thanks. i'll take a look at it when i get home in a month maybe.

Sorry, got confused, they are the pins labled Rx and tx, in the little motherboard window

yes i have found them, but i'm not sure it will help me anyway. in the dark i can see the screen turning on and off, just like the green notification LED. it looks like the phone is restarting every second after trying to boot into flash mode. i'll just buy a new one

c'mon guys,my lcd is blinking like crazy.i need a solution.

It could be a range of things. Does it change when you move it, press the sides,tap the screen? Does it do it by itself.....when it is just sitting there...no external movement. More info needed.

it sounds as if the connector inside the phone is coming loose. If you are able, try and pressure the connector so the connection is good.

Thats the connection i am referring to. If you need assistance in dismantling the hermes, try the mod, Mike Channons guide
If it is not this, then i am not sure...
Do this as a last resort as it will void any warranty you may have with your phone... it also sounds as though the screen is on its way out.

vogue with camera flash??

Just curious if anyone has attempted to add a flash to th vogue? I noticed the other day when taking off the back cover the little circle mirror thing beside the camera lens easily pops out, so i decided to compare it to my titan and noticed that it appears that possible a l.e.d flash of some sort could perhaps fit in there.
anyone done this, and if so can u explain what is needed (software) and where to get the flash bulb that can be used. Thx
The hardware needed isn't there.

cant. cant. c. a. n. t. be done. there isnt space for the flash bulb, and then you would have to think about where you would place the connections for the bulb. this is just hardware aspects of it, software side would be 10x as hard
Always bring a flashlight ! SOLVED!
actually if you look next to the speaker there is an external antenna connect ion there right below where the little door that pops out is... simply put it can't be done
You wanna keep that there for self portraits. Oddly enough after a year of having the phone i figured out that u use that mirror to center yourself or yourself and a friend when you can't see the screen.....

Tilt 2 port indentification?

Trying to figure out what the port on the right side near the top is.......? Thought it may have been reset button's access but it turns out user has to remove battery cover to perform this. This port actually aligns with hole on inside just above reset. Anyone have a clue. Thought I saw it listed as an expansion port somewhere. Anyone have a FCC diagram?

On my TMoUSA TP2 it's the secondary-microphone, used when in speakerphone mode...so probably the same on the Tilt2....?
read page 24 of the Tilt2 manual, its the microphone.
RTFM!

Screw mix - system use 80% of battery now

Hi,
First you can all say i screwed up and i am stupid.... i assume and i feel stupid, trust me !
I don't know anything about electronic or programming as you but i want to share and maybe find a solution with you for my problem.
3 days ago, I wanted to clean my lens because some dust were on it, so i put out the 2 screws around the lens... of course i did not see they were different...because i am stupid with it ! when i clean it i mixed the two screws so the big one went to deep behind the plastic and make a perforation on a component.
I join a picture to let you see a small hole in the blue part on the right of the camera lens !
Since, the battery is down in 3hours. Android tell me the system use around 80% of the battery and it is warm on the plastic around the lens.
The wifi never want to be put on and the bluetooth too (the MAC WIFI is now : 02:00:00:00:00:00)
The telephone and the 4G are working perfectly
I tried to put a small electric scotch on the hole but this don't change anything.
I just want to use this phone as a phone now, i don't care if the bluetooth, the wifi or the camera is working well or not at all....
Is it possible with the hidden menu to disconnect this component???
Do you have a solution which allowed me to continue using this phone which is perfect otherwise?
Sorry for my english....as you can see, i am not so good with it !
Thanks in advance for your advice...
Any idea of
What is the component i touch with the screw???
how i can use the hidden menu to disconnect wifi and bluetooth???
Thank u

I have a vs985 & yours is a d855, but I think the boards are similar enough to try and help.
It's not a component you hit - it's just tape. I opened up my phone and tested that spot on the board with a DMM and it looks like a ground plane underneath the tape you punctured. That in itself shouldn't be causing your problems, but if your screw went through the ground plane & into the board it may be shorting something out which could be causing your issues. If that's the case I don't know if your phone is salvageable.
1)Try removing the back cover and see if the issues go away. There is a possibility that when you re-assembled the phone something ended up out of place/off its contacts.
2)Also, I'd take a closer look and see how deep the screw went. Maybe take a fine tip tweezer and see if there is some of that ground plane mashed in the hole & try to gently peel it out.
3)And, of course, try resetting your phone or even re-flashing at some point - just so you can know for sure you didn't have some weird software glitch that just happened to show up after you opened your phone.
Hidden menu - I've never used it and I'm not on stock so I can't tell you much about it's functions. Here's a link... https://www.reddit.com/r/LGG3/comments/3z4nwi/lg_g3_hidden_menu_on_60_marshmallow/
Good luck - hope you get it sorted out
thanks,
I ll try tomorrow and tell you ASAP !!
THX again to spend time for me

Black Shark 3 Blocked

It was a normal day, I just left my house with my Black Shark 3 fully charged, I used it for some messages and simple things when at 2 hours it turns off by itself and cannot be turned on, instead it vibrates every 15 seconds, does not react to the charger or show any information on the screen, just dead except for vibrating and vibrating. The recovery mode does not work, the key combination turn off + volume up or down is useless. Help!!! I never touched or modified it, it was completely updated to the default official versions, I learned to accept my Chinese version with Google complications and language support, I accepted it as it was KLE-A0 with JoyUi 12.5 and Android 11

I do not know much about how to do this, thanks bro for the support, I only know that it does not respond when connecting it to the PC, it is totally dead ... I wanted to rule out some hardware problem but I also can't find how to uncover it

then you need to pull out the battery connector, both of them, then do the test point method (you need to take out the back cover of your phone). i was facing the same problem like yours, that's how i bring the phone back to life.

I don't see any screws on the back of the black shark, neither on the sides ... Maybe the screen will have to be taken off but it makes me insecure

the back cover is attached by using double sided tape, you just need to heating up the back cover with heat gun or hairdryer to soften the glue. just search on youtube, how to take off the back cover. you can PM me if you need help.

the phone is totally dead, no response to any button or any computer, even not responding to the charger. it is just plain dead. i was also experiencing the same exact problem. the last thing he can do is only do the test point method which require him to open up the back cover.
Do not pay anything to anyone trying to offer you help for $. Either your device is physically damaged (in which case it needs to go in for repair) or it can be fixed with some study and help.
Hello friends, after all, when I press and hold the volume down key, it seems to achieve a connection in PCSUITE, however, it asks me to connect in a normal way before
What do you think that in the end what muy BS3 have is that the board burned, I always thought that that heat could be taken well by the device after all it is Gaming with liquid cooling, right?
