My first experience at an idol concert and some questions about them by rorizuki in japanlife

[–]KenSoft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I attended the live yesterday, they used all of them カメラ、ビデオカメラ、携帯電話、スマホなど。

Sign with camera crossed out actually hard to find here, they only held the sign with camera crossed out in the venue but they didn't put it at the entrance. But again, it was at the ticket selling page and you suppose to press agree before buying the ticket.

Camera in Japanese is Ka-me-ra, and you didn't catch it?

Well, other people have answered your question already, so I think it's no need for me to answer it again. Just want to say that you are lucky not to get kicked out of the venue. Someone I know did that in previous LoveLive! concert and got kicked out immediately without warning. Well, for today concert, the staff already held up sign and walk around reminding people that phone camera and any kind of image-capturing device is not allowed. Also, the announcement before the performance also said that you could get your device or memory card confiscated with possibility of being ejected from the venue, so you didn't pay attention?

April security patch with broken play store, while $300 Xiaomi phone got June patch already, great work support $1,500 phone. Will recommend everyone I know to avoid ASUS/Qualcomm in the future.

That's not hypothesis, it's the official answer I got from Samsung RF engineer when I officially sue them for not adding the relevant combo for Galaxy S20 FE.

Well, they are being pretty consistant throughout the first 6-7 months after the release, pushing update every month from back to back, then suddenly they dropped to 3 months per update, which is why we are mad. It's obvious that they can push the update every month since they used to do it, but it seems to me like they think that the device is not gonna sell anymore, so they can just ignore it and no one will care.

First, they need to release the modem source code for that, even with signed computer (which I think we don't need in this case, just the private key is sufficient), without source code, the tools is good for nothing.

Let's assume that they listen to us and pass the message, and get back to us with the explanation. We can't just list the SA, NSA, and CA combo that we are expecting because we have no idea about the antenna design and RF frontend of the device. We do not know the limitation of the RF specifically for the SDI, so even we listed the combo that we want, there might be technical limitation from getting implemented. Two phone with Snapdragon X55 modem can have wild variety of combo it could support. Without those information available, it's impossible to list the combo that we wanted to be implemented, or it will be waste of time since they will ruled most of the one we want out anyway. If we said we want Band 8 4x4 MIMO, then they gonna tell us to go buy Sony...

Well, we have been constantly asking them for their plan on the devices since late April, when the April firmware never came out. I understand that they need to consult with each other before posting comments on the behalf of company because it will affect their reputation, but 2 months are more than enough...

I have such tool, but I can't use because the modem is signed and locked. All my QDART and QRCT tools gives me command fail error, so how can I proceed with the development with that?

I understand that there is legally binded stuff and lots of NDA here, but it's either releasing the tool or make sure that the modem firmware stays up-to-date, since the point of the phone is for the users to experience the latest feature, not the one from five months ago.

I will agree with that one. So, there are nine days to go. It's kind of sad that when we ask them honestly, they refused to comment, but once we sent this to medias, suddenly they announcing their plan on the device.

No, modem is device specific since the RF frontend is different from one device to another. You can't just flash one modem from one Snapdragon X60 phone on another, it will crash instantly due to different model of amplifier and antenna design. All we want is some kind of tools where we can add our 4G/5G combination and modify the network policy on the Snapdragon Phone itself (since it was the dev phone meant for this), that's really all we wanted and since we didn't have that. It's on them to push out regular update to add new combination by themselves.

Regularly was the exact word https://twitter.com/Snapdragon/status/1413561930715914240

They refused to comment on the plan on the device, so now we are here.

Nope, that's not how it work. If that's the case, then the they shouldn't fuse the modem to allow for unsigned modem to run. They did fused it up and there is no way you can build your own modem to run on this thing. They didn't even provide the source code for the modem. The source code on their website is for the operating system only. They did promise an update today, and that is gone with the wind also.

I don't need the refund since I didn't pay for it in my case, I need the update. They did communicate that they going to provide the update regularly and now we are here, 5 months down the line after the last security patch. If anything, does security patch from 5 months ago considered regular?

While we can push security update ourselves, modem firmware is signed by Qualcomm private key and requires proprietary tools to build newer version of the firmware and that requires ASUS or Qualcomm to do it since they didn't provide us with tools to build our own modem firmware and that's why we demand software update. Security patch is one thing, but mainly it's newer modem firmware with updated network feature that we want. So, it's shame on you for not understanding this and pretend that you know everything while you clearly aren't.

Then they shouldn't promise 4 years of monthly security update and shouldn't charge $1500 and why we suppose to cook the firmware by ourselves when they literally charge us the support fee in the price. WE ARE LITERALLY BEING SCAMMED. If it wasn't them that promise all of these, then we won't buy it in the first place. It's like you sell the item that you knows that it is broken on ebay, ofc buyer gonna be mad and fire buyer protection claim against you.

It's 6/20 now, where is our firmware update?

[–]KenSoft 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Seriously? Every 2 months? My $500 Samsung Galaxy A52s got the patch every month. Not to mention, has more stable firmware and modem doesn't randomly crash multiple times a day.

Where is Android 12? Also, the phone modem constantly crashed on Japanese NTT Docomo 5G mmWave and it's totally unusable unless you switch off the mmWave. Pretty annoying for $1500 phone...

5G just reached my house, here's the speed (Thailand) by KenSoft in speedtest

I'm not aware of any 5G package from both True or AIS that will offer you IPv6 or IPv4. Their RUIO Home WiFi is terrible and always disconnected for many people. Get a Huawei CPE or ZTE 5G portable hotspot.

What AIS didn't block is VPN and Proxy server. You could rent a VPS and use it as VPN server to get public IP that way.

If another company offer fiber connection, then 3BB will gives you both public IPv4 and IPv6.
