GSMArena absolutely failed their due diligence. You can't fit 18.6 millimeters of physical focal length in a classic module of a significantly slimmer device. S26U has a "round peri", not a "classic" tele. It's either a "W shape" or "ALoP".

Just like 16MP in a phone spec for many years meant a subpar sensor format, now the difference between a high-end and midrange camera setup is in whether 200MP+50MP combo refers to tele+main, or main+tele.
The largest telephoto sensors to this day are 200MP and the largest main camera sensors to this day remain mostly 50MP. You may see a LYT-901 main, but you'll be guaranteed to see it in combination with a 200MP tele through the foreseeable future because of its market placement.
Tldr: if the two sentences from the pic are correct, expect a HP5 main on OP16.

https://www.cnblogs.com/hicode002/p/-/unlock-your-qualcomm Personal commentary: Devices only unlockable with exploit are the superior choice to ones unlockable through bribery. On Mi 17 Pro, compared to Mi 17 or Mi 17 Ultra, there won't be naggers constantlyβ¦
Exploit chain is here (look for it, it's everywhere) , Lei Jun is mad. Buying Mi 17 series is thereby finally acceptable.

adb shell reboot bootloader(any other method of entering bootloader is also fine)
fastboot oem set-gpu-preemption 0 androidboot.selinux=permissivefastboot continueInstall the manager from https://github.com/tiann/KernelSU/actions/runs/23055483890 (alt: https://nightly.link/tiann/KernelSU/actions/runs/23055483890/manager.zip)
Press the jailbreak button.
You have temp root. Just don't write to any partitions that are verified by bootloader, you'll brick.
Yes, this is a guide specifically for Mi 17 (series?). I've seen
set-gpu-preemption-value elsewhere, and setting that does give you permissive SELinux state and working adb, but you're left with a black screen, this doesn't occur with set-gpu-preemption.(excuse the Polish screenshots)

In the FDE days, you could mostly nullify someone's encryption by telling them to enable accessibility services. Users who ended up in such a state often had zero clue about the reason they were no longer asked for their decryption password before seeing their lock screen.

What is a small phone? People vary about the definition, but to me, they basically don't exist anymore, so what I'm used to call "small" is what I actually consider as normal. The barrier of it to me is the width of 72mm. Considering how small the list isβ¦
List sorted and updated, enjoy

Hi Google, okay, I need your GMS to send files fast between offline devices, okay, got it. But why do they need to be visible to everyone nearby and can't just pair at home, contrary to the ancient Bluetooth capable of it, unless I obviously login into a Google acc? Hmm, I may know why.

Can't wait for other innovations inspired by Xiaomi's bootloader unlock policy, like:
1. One sideload per year
2. Having to click a button in the American midnight to participate in sideload permission lottery
3. Exam about history of Google and chemistry of your battery
So many options left on the table!
