android question

2018-12-30 Thread Jim
Does anyone know of a way to unlock the bootloader of an android device if the manufacturer has locked it and won't supply a code to unlock it?  Where would be a good place to look? --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org

Re: I want to download a program (mint 19.1)

I don't have experience with Mint, but I do with Ubuntu, years ago. If mint uses DPKG, I think you can use the command: dpkg -i "URLtoYourDEBfile.deb" wget will get the file, but won't install it. Thanks, Alexander. Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S8+ On Dec 30, 2018 17:20, "Michael" wrote:

If I'm having this problem and you are, then others are also.  I read a few days ago that an update has been released.  While I was typing this, I checked my old phone.  This feature worked on it. Now it doesn't.  I just had the bad luck to notice it soon after a new release came out.  I'll

I tried it on mine, both with my phone locked and unlocked, and I get "Can't mount filesystem" even though dolphin sees my phone in the list. I often use Airdroid, I like it for interacting with my phone and pushing files over to it. I use SolidExplorer to also smb/sftp attach to my filers or

The screen is not locked when I've tried this.  KDE connect does allow me to send data to the computer.  Until this is fixed, I'll just use sftp to send data to the desktop.  If it's a lot of data, I'll shut off the phone and put its SD card in the computer. On 12/30/18 9:38 AM, Michael

Not locked like carrier lock, I mean locked like in sleep, without a pin. You just need to wake it up, pin unlock the phone, as that tends to lock storage. I've noticed other things (like airdroid) won't allow connection if it locks. -mb On Sun, Dec 30, 2018 at 6:42 AM Jim wrote: > Do you

Do you mean the partitions can't be accessed as long as the phone is locked to one carrier?  Stephen, I checked remote filesystem browser in settings on the desktop, and it's enabled.  On the phone kde connect has storage permissions and all other permissions I can give it. (contacts, phone,
