It was a pain to find latest Android 10 firmware for Realme 3. The official website did not have anything for these old devices. One tool I found was a paid service. And unlocking bootloader also stopped working officially. The unofficial process was too complex. And what baffled me was I was just unable to find stock update files anywhere. After a lot of searching, finally found stock Android 10 update at below website. It contains lot more updates besides Realme 3. https://realmefirmware.com/realme-update/ So now I'm back to Android 10. The phone camera is probably as useless as earlier and I think maybe it's damaged by lasers or something else. Anyway I have a DSLR or iPhone to take photos anyway. So quest failed, but I think this phone should run for couple more years at current 66% SOH. It's not perfect, like the GPS conks off once in a while which I think has to do with loose connections due to cracked frame. Anyway let it run for as much as possibl...

So iPhone provides it's own over-engineered challenges. One of that is jpg files are compressed to heic to save about 30% space. But grabbing the files to computer is a pain. And then again you end up with these heic files. There's no inbuilt support for these in windows and no real benefit where storage is cheap. So I decided to save myself the pain and just convert them to jpg using image-magic. Of course, I did not have to code anything, found one ready-made script on the internet. ---------------------------------------------------- @echo off for %%a in (*.HEIC) do ( magick "%%a" "%%~na.jpg" ) echo Conversion complete. pause -----------------------------------------------------
