I recently acquired a Lumia 900 which has some very strange stuff installed on it, Initially I was going to update using NCS as it was running 8779 but there is no info in sim-tray so I couldn't find The correct Firmware, It updated in Zune to 8862 but couldn't find qualcomm drivers and is now stuck on 2175.2101.8779.12201 but running OS 7.8.
All working fine so not a major problem but just curious as to the devices origin?
Anyway the stuff, In diagnostics ##634# there are a few different options like detailed battery info and wireless lan,
In the main menu QC BSP Services which has a reg editor, Boot loader config, Services Manager and MM Test Apps,
Also in main menu zCompass, zDebugMenu, zSensorView and zStart KITL.
Had a quick look through some of the stuff but at a total loss as to most of it, Seems as though this was some kind of Dev device as its IMEI number is totally weird and is not recognised by Nokia, and in Settings/About/More information it is listed now as OS version: 8862.WM7 Main_Ship (mojobld).20130221-1538.
Can anyone shed any light please?
Thanks in advance
Can you show screensots of about phone menu?
Managed to sideload a couple of Homebrews using bazaar but device is only Dev unlocked so could not use root tools etc but screenshot app works fine
All working fine as it should do but I have tried to update Firmware and even after name changing a few files it could not change mode etc, No firmware exists on Navifirm.
Ok so I kind of got my answer now and am happy for Mod to lock Sent from my Lumia 900 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App

Hmm, old thread, but...
I don't know anything about these devices, but I do know that those are very rare and useful development/debug tools to have. Is this menu available on all L900's or just yours? If not, then you should definitely try to make a full image backup of your device so other developers could use these tools... What's under the MM Test App menu?
I ended up installing a full unlocked ROM (funky ROM v2) as the bootloader was unlocked and it worked out really well, Passed on the phone now
Hi everyone. I am new and I agree that I am complete noob in this field. I have never did any update to my stock vibe p1 ROM because it runs very smoothly and I never encountered a single issue like other users had. Now I want to just Root it but I don't want any upgrades( in terms of version update). I know that this question may have been answered earlier but all the listed method is so confusing. Can anyone please just put the step by step instruction on how to root my vibe p1 and please share the link of the necessary files in this thread. I am sorry for wasting your time but I need to root it to gain access to my network settings. Thanks in advance. :angel:

Try Kingo Root.
All you need is an laptop or pc, or you could try Kingo Root apk file.
Look on uncle Google for this app.
Good luck.

You could tell this important information in your o.p. so we can skip this step.
Now... write here what your system is, like what is written in: Settings/About phone/Device information/Build number.
What you have to do is to read some articles from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/vibe-p1/development/qpst-flashing-vibeui-3-1-s272-rom-t3386650
I think, if you dont know what to do, go to someone who knows and can help you.
Good Luck.

Thanks for reply. That is the exact thing I meant when i called myself noob. My build is p1a_42_s137_151028_ROW. I did mentioned I got confused though I know this is not a new topic. I think the process (in the link) is for upgrades and what I want is just root because I never got a 100% satisfied user after any upgrades let it be via ota(starting with 30mb patch) or custom Row. My handset works perfectly fine. No lag no heating , no battery draining, etc. I want to root because I want to tweak network settings which is not possible with non rooted mode as SQL is not accessable. Sorry i was not able to provide whole info but I truly don't use blogs or social sites so I lack the idea.

Tell me one thing!
When you tried to root your phone with kingo root tool, did you activated USB Debugging option from developer section ?
If not, activate this option from developer option and try again.
To activate this option you must go to : Settings/About phone/Device information/Build number and press fast many times on it till developer tab is activated.
Go to Settings/Developer options and activate the option from there.
Write here what is going on.

There is a bootloader lock on the phone. Applications is useless. The bootloader must first be unlocked, or root application must be installed on the rom. The best solution for you is to unlock the bootloader lock and install twrp. Please see the following page:

Well I can only say that with my rom 288 the process was If you have already unlocked bootloader is using QFIL and selecting rawprogram_twrp.xml put supersu zip on your sd card boot into twrp recovery and install supersu zip.

It probably works with the qfil file of your same rom. You need to add and flash bootloader files into the same rom(data can be deleted). ROM version is not important for the bootloader file. If the process is successful, you can install twrp and supersu.zip

Hello everyone. I have recently discovered that my LG G3 (32 GB model, running Android 5.0) has some missing features in the lock screen. The "None" feature which disables the lock screen completely was missing but for some reason it showed up when I deleted the Guest in my phone. I also know from various photos on the internet that the LG G3 has a function where you can unlock your phone by letting it recognise your face. This "Face Recognition" feature is also missing and I haven't managed to find a way to get it back. Can someone help me?

Face Recognition is removed from most of phones nowadays,because easily somebody else can unlock your phone with his face..
And as I've seen some companies are developing this feature.
For the "none" i think in 5.0 LG removed it.(I'm not really sure about that)well you can use "swipe" for now.
Also why don't you upgrade to 6.0?It has the "None" for the lock screen and also it has really great performance!
Yeah well I've tried to upgrade it to Marshmallow but I don't know how. I tried LG pc suite but that didn't work. Do you know how to do it?

No there is no need to Root your device.Only follow the guide that i made.
Okay! Now that I got back my computer I can do it. I just have one more question. My phone will be updated by installing custom roms? Will that wipe off my phone's guarantee? Because it lasts for two more years and I don't want to lose it now.

Hi all. I would like to reinstall the firmware on my P6Pro, and though it's a UK unlocked, unbranded Vodafone model can I reinstall it with the EE firmware as it's the SIM I've used from day one?
My phone firmware is :
SQ1D. 220105.007
As far as I know, SQ1D.220105.007 is the only latest (January) firmware available for the Pixel 6 Pro. Correct me if I'm wrong, though. It's the only one listed at that official Google Pixel firmware webpage.
The above is correct, as is often the case they have consolidated all of it into one image in January.
Thanks people.
I have the Jan update.
Do you know why they even list selecting a carrier first?

Probably just a generic prompt for those devices or months that there are separate firmwares for different carriers.
Can't seem to get this feature to work.
When I go to "rescue" mode and connect phone, the repair doesn't seem to connect to phone and remains on loader page with phone showing "No Command"with the android bot on his back with a triangle above his open chest.
Retried it with different UK carriers and unlocked carrier.
Any thoughts?

You could try Official Google Android Flash Tool instead and see if that helps any better. I know Official Google Pixel Update and Software Repair is official, too - I'm not even clear on when the repair site will help that the flash site won't, since I've never used either. Lots of folks on here have used Official Google Android Flash Tool with great success, though. Let us know what happens.
Pixel repair tool hasn't been updated to support the 6/Pro yet - the only part of that website that works for either phone is the Fingerprint Calibration tool.
As above, install Google adb/fastboot drivers & then try to use the Android Flash Tool, that should work for you

this is the right answer. Also, for every other Pixel that supports this Pixel Repair website (Pixel 3+), it's actually really hit or miss if the phone ever gets recognized at all.
Considering how amazing the Android Flash Tool works - unfortunately it looks like pixelrepair isn't getting the attention it deserves - probably for reasons that we aren't aware of - but development time is probably one of them.
Hi guys, just to let you know, eventually managed to do a flash with the 'Flash.andriod.com' tool. 5 mins and all easily done.
Thanks for all the help though.
Hey guys! I finally got my OnePlus 11 yesterday in the USA! Love this phone! I'm reading into how to recover this phone if it ever bricks (mine isn't bricked lol) and I'm seeing we CAN'T just download and use MSM Tool like we could on previous OnePlus devices??? How does this work now with the 11 in mind? Thanks y'all!

That's SUCH a terrible decision on their part! Damn! All other OEMs freely make unbricking tools available, OnePlus SUCKS for this decision. Well alrighty.
Side question, you may or may not be able to answer this one. Is there any way to do local upgrades on the 11? Like, that was always the easiest way to update a rooted OnePlus phone in the past, but now that option is gone from their newer devices?

Unfortunately on US devices there's no local update. It's been this way for awhile. On the 9pro and 10pro you could use the local update apk from OnePlus to do local updates but considering the US rarely gets full zips anymore (we only get incremental from Google servers in US), there isn't much point for us to use it. You can still root and re-root after updates but you need to be more careful without having the full updates (and without having the freely available MSM tool like we used to have). On the 10 pro I would always replace the patched boot.img with stock then do the incremental update and then re-root after the update. Not so sure on 11 right now since it uses the init_boot.img and you can't just boot that, you have to flash it. Until more people post on rooting and updating the US model, I think I'll hold off on root, and I always root all of my phones.

Should be able to just enable USB debugging and use adb reboot bootloader. Haven't personally bothered yet until I'm sure there's a good way to root, un-root, update and re-root. Don't want to brick and have to send back to OnePlus to repair, granted they do fix it for free, but we still shouldn't have to send it in to fix it. We should be able to recover our phones ourselves.
