What program/app can I use to control my android phone from windows?

I know my post was probably relevant in 2009 but I just fucked up my HTC Touch 2 with WinMobile6.5 by clearing some value in registry editor and now the phone won't boot. I don't think I had anything of value in the phone but I'd still like to get it back. Is there any way to get into its internal storage via a computer? Preferrably without using the phone's volume buttons because they don't work.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baseband_processor
>A baseband processor typically uses its own RAM and firmware
>Since the software which runs on baseband processors is usually proprietary, it is impossible to perform an independent code audit. By reverse engineering some of the baseband chips, researchers have found security vulnerabilities that could be used to access and modify data on the phone remotely
https://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/replicant-developers-find-and-close-samsung-galaxy-backdoor
>Today's phones come with two separate processors: one is a general-purpose applications processor that runs the main operating system, e.g. Android; the other, known as the modem, baseband, or radio, is in charge of communications with the mobile telephony network. This processor always runs a proprietary operating system, and these systems are known to have backdoors that make it possible to remotely convert the modem into a remote spying device. The spying can involve activating the device's microphone, but it could also use the precise GPS location of the device and access the camera, as well as the user data stored on the phone. Moreover, modems are connected most of the time to the operator's network, making the backdoors nearly always accessible
>we discovered that the proprietary program running on the applications processor in charge of handling the communication protocol with the modem actually implements a backdoor that lets the modem perform remote file I/O operations on the file system

>baseband also has privileged access to hardware such as microphones
>"airplane mode" is a software switch that simply disconnects your OS from the baseband, but the baseband is still connected to cellular network
>powering down a phone does nothing, since the baseband is still know to operate even with ROM hardware shut down
>no removable batteries anymore, so baseband always on and connected to network
>cell towers constantly triangulating your devices location

Nokia 8

>>62339372

I've held one as our local stores sell them and they aren't that damn big. 5.15" versus 4.95" is not that much unless you're a handlet.
>>
>>62339365
>More rom
there's a 32GB option plus SD card.

Also you're paying for a better camera, fast charge, better Android skin, type c port, as well as the reliability of a brand that didn't instantly discard the 3.5mm port to follow in apples footsteps for their flagships.

>>62339419
But the 1+5 is a chinkphone. And the jelly effect was heavily exaggerated like the lense flare of the pixel.

Is it any good?

I'm interested because it looks like vaccine m GameCube emulation is finally possible.
How do you live with no 3.5mm port?
>>
>>62341185

I have Bluetooth headphones.

The form factor is remarkable. It feels like a very tough and well built device.

The screen is 10/10 for an LCD. The fingerprint reader is very fast.

In terms of software, it's average. It's frozen up on me once. Some apps like Spotify don't work well with this device. The camera software is below average.

I recommend you wait until it goes down in price. They'll improve on the OS over time.

>>62342040

I have been able to emulate SNES, PSP, and DS fairly well. PSX emulation is also supposedly competent but I haven't tried it. N64 and PS2 are so behind right now it's probably a waste of time to get it working.
>>

No.

iOS is horrible for this stuff, you can't even install PPSSPP without jailbreak.
>>
>>62342257

Have you tried to run MHFU? I tried that 4 years ago on my nexus 4 and it can barely hit 20. I assume it has gotten a lot better since.

Anyone here have any experiences with Mint Sim?
>>
>>62342307
Snapdragon 820 is much MUCH more powerful than the s4 pro used in the Nexus 4. I haven't tried MHFU but if your Nexus was able to reach 20 then any modern phone with Helio x20 or better shouldn't have any issues maintaining 30fps with upscaling and other visual enhancements.

GSMarena tests place the Meizu Pro 7 Plus as one of the best audio quality phones on the market if you're interested in alternatives.

the only real issue I had was switching back to google maps because apple maps wasn't that great. And changing all the defaults to chrome to keep my bookmarks. The rest of googles apps are easily downloadable. I downloaded swiftkey because the iOS keyboard doesn't automatically have sweeptext. Scrolling through text is amazing since you're not trying to grab onto that little blue triangle, and the patented looking glass zoom in thing makes it really easy to highlight stuff.

Notifications feel a little shittier, and having no widgets is kind of a drag. Otherwise, the only problem I had was learning to swipe up to use my flashlight instead of swiping down.

You shouldn't. The Note 5A only just launched so the reseller prices are still inflated. If the prices go down it might become a lower budget alternative to the Note 4 but it's not worth it at current prices.

>That tickles your autism?
Yeah, I can't stand that lack of symmetry.

>If anything the rounded corners are the design trend that's much more offensive
I disagree: I find them very pleasing.
>but it's still nothing compared to picture related and it's front facing camera
Yeah, but I can see why it was done like that: usually that section of the phone isn't of any use, because the upper notification bar doesn't fill to that point, and such solution allows a front facing camera to be placed in the best (central) position while keeping the overall dimensions limited. Still, it's hideous.
>or the completely retarded design of the new iphone that I can only hope is fake leaks.
They're not fake leaks, and Apple has become as retarded as their users. Jobs must be spinning in his grave really really fast.

If it fixes the ear piece, is smaller than the mix 1, and otherwise doesn't suck cocks I'll buy one for $800 easily. That's like $50 of cashback from my cc and Ebates, so it's closer to $750.

It's been a long time since I treated myself, I've been using a redmi note 3 pro without a case for 1.5yrs and it's in perfect condition so I'll use a mix2 for a long time.

I'm due for a phone upgrade with my carrier (Bell).

Currently have an iPhone 6. Not excited by anything Apple has done on the cell phone front in a long while, and have no interest in the new shit they're coming out with for a million dollars. I'd like to give Android a shot again (last time I tried was Samsung Galaxy S2, which was not great imo).

What are my options for something easily rootable and doesn't come preloaded with a bunch of touchwiz garbage or the like? I'd like something with a large screen (5"+) as well.

Here are my options:

Nah, TPU ones that'll come over the edge of the phone a bit to protect it if it falls on a corner, and a tempered glass protector to protect the main screen lest it fall face down.

Same as I had on my Nexus 5.
>>
>>62358342
Not enough protection, needs to come out a little more, maybe a mm or two
The black TPU that ZTE made for mine is a tank
>>
>>62358362
It's enough for me though. I don't need a tank case, I just need that type of case+protector on a phone that isn't glass.

Completely shattered my Zuk Z2 while waiting for a new case to come in and figured it'll be an easy enough excuse to upgrade. But my Nexus 5 never had any issues with cracks or breaks while protected.

That reminds me, any phones with Helio X30, Exynos 8890/8895 or Snapdragon 835 that aren't 2.5d or curved front glass while I'm here?

I don't think there's a phone out there with those chips that doesn't come with 2.5D glass

I don't understand why these fucking glass shield makers can't extend and curve the glass to make it work and not be such a fucking eyesore
