Hi, can i unlock my verizon sgs3 i535 boot loader running on android 4.4.2 thanks

@Buntyagrwl, you could have used 'Minimal ADB and Fastboot' instead of using the complete package

Because the SDK provides Google driver. That's why I used the complete package.
Please find in your phones relevant forum. Thanks

Can't do IMEI/NVRAM backup MTK, can't root

Hey, guys.. I can't get through following issues. Phone's firmware is full vanilla since the very beginning - only updated from Jelly Bean/ICS to 4.4.2 with OTA.
I want to install TWRP Recovery and then try some custom firmwares. I started with making a backup of IMEI/NVRAM by MTK Droid R&T just to be safe.
I can't, IMEI/NVRAM button is greyed out. Log:
Code:
--->>> Connect to device <<<---
--- ERROR : --- TotalBytesPerChunk Not Found. Set default Page/Spare=2048/64 !!!
--- Unknown ROM structure, backup NOT possible!
I've looked for solutions. They suggest e.g. searching for MTK app from different source. It doesn't help.
Setting up a root is also a trouble. I tried to use the simpliest, well known method within the reach based on Batch script.
Log:
Code:
[*] Waiting for device...(Connect your LGOG via USB in Charge Only Mode)
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
[*] Device found.
Beginning Root Process
Now change from Charge Only to MTP
No need to disconnect USB
Press Enter after making the change.
Press any key to continue . . .
adbd cannot run as root in production builds
error: device not found
If uid=0(root), gid=0(root) is displayed
Press Enter to Continue
Device is properly connected to adb.
Code:
(...)\ZV9-ZVB-Universal-Root>adb devices
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *

I'm aware that those problems might be trivial to fix. In that case, sorry for wasting your time. Still, thank you greatly for help. I can provide all needed info.

Battery saving mode: how to keep work vibration and double tap to awake?

I explore the possibilities of working in power saving mode (battery saver mode) on Android 9 (Google Pixel 2XL) with vibration and double tap to awake ON.
Through ADB I managed to enable both of these options for this mode with the command:
Code:
adb shell settings put global battery_saver_constants "vibration_disabled=false, aod_disabled"
Everything worked as I needed, however, after some time (maybe half a day to go, maybe 5 minutes), the battery_saver_constants value returns to the default (empty). I look at its value using the
Code:
adb shell settings list global
Previously, I changed the location of the buttons using the command
Code:
adb shell settings put secure sysui_nav_bar "space,recent;home;back,space"
and it still works correctly.
Anyone can tell what exactly is responsible for resetting global constants battery_saver_constants? And is it possible to disable the constant reset of these constants through some ADB settings without root?
For the root there is the following method:
Code:
pm disable --user 0 com.google.android.gms/.phenotype.service.sync.PhenotypeConfigurator
but without root this command returns error:
Code:
Security exception: Shell cannot change component state for com.google.android.gms/com.google.android.gms.phenotype.service.sync.PhenotypeConfigurator to 2
So, question is still same: how do it without root?
Did you find any solution for this without root? I am having the same problem on OnePlus 7 Android 9. I want to enable the vibrations and disable screen dimming.
Dude, I spent hours trying to do this until I found ur post, I really appreciated u for posting this.
It worked on my pixel 3 with last update "Android 9 July"
This is what I did:
1- Root first
2- Using a terminal app typed the following commands:
3-
PHP:
pm disable --user 0 com.google.android.gms/.phenotype.service.sync.PhenotypeConfigurator
4-
PHP:
settings put global battery_saver_constants "vibration_disabled=false, aod_disabled=false"
3-reboot
Enjoy!!
Double tap to wake will works only after rebooting

Guide - How to add applications into the "Battery - Restricted apps" list.

Hi all,
I have been using Samsung for many years and I used to do things right in the setting menu.
But with Sony XZ1c are thinghs slightly complicated. Like setting applications to "Restricted apps" in battery menu.
When you wan to add app as restricted you have to go to Settings>Apps>See all apps>{chose the app}>Advanced>Battery>Background restriction>Restrict.
It is really crazy for me so I prepare easy way how to do it in bulk by ADB:
Requirements:
ADB installed on your PC.
Enabled: Developer options>USB debugging
Shell started on your PC, for example cmd in Windows, bash or another in Linux
Tested on:
47.2.A.10.80 but it should work on all versions.
How to:
First of all you have to get list of your applications in your phone:
Code:
adb shell pm list packages
package:com.amazon.mShop.android.shopping
package:com.sonymobile.whitebalance
.
.
.
package:com.android.cts.priv.ctsshim
package:com.qualcomm.qti.qms.service.telemetry
If you want (it is not necessarily) use these switches to filter list or show more information:
Code:
pm list packages [-f] [-d] [-e] [-s] [-3] [-i] [-l] [-u] [-U]
[--uid UID] [--user USER_ID] [FILTER]
Prints all packages; optionally only those whose name contains
the text in FILTER. Options are:
-f: see their associated file
-d: filter to only show disabled packages
-e: filter to only show enabled packages
-s: filter to only show system packages
-3: filter to only show third party packages
-i: see the installer for the packages
-l: ignored (used for compatibility with older releases)
-U: also show the package UID
-u: also include uninstalled packages
--uid UID: filter to only show packages with the given UID
--user USER_ID: only list packages belonging to the given user
Chose which application you want to restrinct and type:
Code:
adb shell appops set <PACKAGE> RUN_ANY_IN_BACKGROUND ignore
like:
adb shell appops set com.amazon.mShop.android.shopping RUN_ANY_IN_BACKGROUND ignore
To check status of the app:
Code:
adb shell appops <PACKAGE> RUN_ANY_IN_BACKGROUND
like:
adb shell appops com.amazon.mShop.android.shopping RUN_ANY_IN_BACKGROUND
To restrict more than one application:
Code:
adb shell
appops set com.amazon.mShop.android.shopping RUN_ANY_IN_BACKGROUND ignore
appops set com.sonymobile.scan3d RUN_ANY_IN_BACKGROUND ignore
appops set com.google.android.youtube RUN_ANY_IN_BACKGROUND ignore
appops set net.languagecourse.vt.de RUN_ANY_IN_BACKGROUND ignore
.
.
.
.
appops set com.touchtype.swiftkey RUN_ANY_IN_BACKGROUND ignore
appops set com.FireproofStudios.TheRoom2 RUN_ANY_IN_BACKGROUND ignore
appops set com.FireproofStudios.TheRoom3 RUN_ANY_IN_BACKGROUND ignore
appops set com.FireproofStudios.TheRoom RUN_ANY_IN_BACKGROUND ignore
exit
How to revert your changes:
Code:
appops set <PACKAGE> RUN_ANY_IN_BACKGROUND allow
Like:
appops set com.FireproofStudios.TheRoom RUN_ANY_IN_BACKGROUND allow
Disclaimer:
I'm not responsible when you brick or damage your phone. Please chose <PACKAGE> carefully. Also do not restrict all packages!
