Hi everyone,

I'm having trouble answering calls on my SM-A720F when it's locked. When a call comes in, nothing shows up on the screen. I have to unlock first, open notification panel and tap on answer button. Restarting phone solves the issue for a while. I have reset my phone settings but the issue is still there. Any suggestions or solutions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Greetings! My query is about rooting a Samsung A03 Core (SM-A013G/DS). I tried Kingo Root but if fails. I was trying to use magisk also but the twrp app keeps shutting itself down.

Ideally I would like to remove the network carrier restrictions but rooting it would be good for me either way.

What can I use?

Hi everyone, this is my first post ever on XDA forums. I need help fixing my Galaxy J8 (SM-J810G).

I was going to flash TWRP for my device using adb sideload. So I turned on USB debugging in developer mode but forgot to turn off OEM lock. then using adb I typed this command:

adb reboot recovery

after applying the command my device booted into this menu.

View attachment 6102361

This asks for a sideload command, but it does not respond when I apply a sideload command. it does not even show the device using

adb devices or fastboot devices

I also installed latest samsung ADB drivers but still it's not responding.

I can boot into download mode by pressing the key combination. using download mode, I flashed the official firmware for my phone using Odin, but still after rebooting my phone shows the sideload menu shown above in the image.

I tried flashing TWRP using Odin, but it got blocked by OEM lock in download mode.

Here is the download mode screen:

I also tried depleting the battery completely and waiting for a few days before recharging it again but still no luck. I've been trying to fix this problem for a week now. can somebody please help me solve this issue?

Help needed recovering /data on LineageOS rooted phone which doesn't boot.

What I need to know:

When I'm in LineageOS Recovery, what ADB command can I use to decrypt the data (aka userdata) partition? I know the PIN and I still have all the fingers enrolled for fingerprints. I just don't know how to access the TPM to give me the encryption key, and what dmsetup commands I need to enter (possibly on an attached computer) to actually decrypt the partition.

I would like to know why my OS fails to boot. How can I see the kernel or system logs instead of a LineageOS splash screen? Or is there a file which I can examine from within Recovery which would contain log data from the previous boot (and preferably a reason for a reboot)?

Story of what happened:

I have a Sony Xperia 1 V, onto which I flashed an unofficial version of LineageOS together with Magisk (to have root). It was working fine for a few weeks, although I didn't reboot much. One day, when trying to transfer files from a PC via a USB cable, the phone wasn't showing any data options: no MTP or anything like that, just charging. I thought maybe the cable was bad, or maybe my laptop's USB driver failed or something, so I rebooted the phone. I only saw, in order:

The typical warning that the phone can't be protected because the bootloader is unlocked (which is fine as I unlocked it on purpose to be able to flash LineageOS),

The "SONY" logo,

The LineageOS splash boot animation.

After a few seconds of animating the LineageOS splash boot animation, the phone reboots itself and everything repeats.

I can access fastboot and recovery fine.

What I'm trying to do:

Understand what prevents the phone from booting, so I can:

fix it,

prevent it from happening from the future,

file a bug report.

Failing a fix, I'd like to be able to recover my data partition (with all the installed applications' data).

What I've tried so far:

I can get an ADB shell via Recovery. I can mount the system partition. I have no clue what encryption is used for the user data partition. I believe it's encrypted because I used a PIN and fingerprints (and I still know/have those).

In ADB shell, /mnt/system can be mounted, but /mnt/user – not quite (or I don't know how to do it). From /etc/fstab (and /mnt/system/etc/fstab), I've determined the userdata partition is likely /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/userdata, which is a symlink to /dev/block/sda96. Fstab claims it's a f2fs filesystem; attempting to mount it normally results in "Magic Mismatch" in dmesg (and "Can't find valid F2FS filesystem in 1th superblock" (and then "2th superblock")). A mount option `inlinecrypt` is mentioned in this fstab.

Looking at the hex dump of the userdata partition, I can see 8192 bytes of "garbage" (no discernible strings or filesystem magics), followed by a lot of zeroes starting at byte 0x2000.

Any help or pointers will be very appreciated.

Hi, thank you for the reply.

I already tried flashing TWRP through ODIN but OEM is locked and I dont have any way to unlock it becuase my phone is stuck in sideload mode (picture attached in my original post). adb is not responding as well even after installing latest samsung drivers.

I also flashed stock firmware sucessfully but even then my phone wont boot into system. I keep getting the same sideload screen.

My brother installed Lineage OS on my Oneplus 7T a year or two ago. I didn't like it so I installed a Oneplus 7T Fastboot ROM and "platform tools" for Oxygen OS. I think it was OOS 11. I have never done this before but anyways, I installed qualcomm drivers and then I flashed the device in fastboot mode. It has still got LineageOS and it just keeps loading forever, last night it went for almost 1-2 hours I believe. Now it won't even get detected by "adb devices" command, only by fastboot devices command. Maybe I have to unlock it first but I can't since it loads forever. I tried using msm tool but it won't detect my device. I really need help. Thank you! Also I made a post about this but then I saw your commment.

Hi, I want to access my whatsapp database on an old Android phone (A5 2017), I need the key for it. Using whatsapp's backups / chat transfer features will not work for my case.

I know I need to root my phone in order to access the key, but I was told rooting my phone would also delete my files, which is a problem because I need to access the key.

Would rooting it delete my files? And also, are there any video tutorials for it? Because I find a lot of the existing tutorials are hard for beginners to follow. I found this one:

Hi.

This screen burn issue seems to be getting far, far worse on my Samsung A9. If this is normal behavour for using a tablet with the screen turned on, then it is utterly hopeless at it's job. I've now had 2 different samsung tablets that have done this in hardly any time at all.

View attachment 6105190

This picture is just a screenshot of my older post with a white background to show just how bad it is now even in bright light with a camera flash.

The yellow patches on the right feel very warm compared to the rest of the screen once the tablet screen has been on for a few minutes. In my opinion, I am convinced this is a design flaw if you can't use the screen for an extended peroioud of time without causing permanent damage. Surely they could redesighn the tablets to have better cooling?

This has clearly got to the stage where it needs to be sent back to be repaired/ replaced or as it is Amazon, I may see if I request a refund. I have literaly no hope that this won't happen again.

Looking around, there are next to no other tablets that are at this price point with 8gb of memory. That is not vital for me however.

I'm now looking into the Lenovo M8. I just hope that will be a display without the issue. The Lenovo says it's display is an LCD while the samsung states it is TFT.

As I've said in othe posts, the screen on my 5+ year old Lenovo tab4 8 plus can be left on full brightness for hours weather on charge or not and it never has any trace of goasting or display damage. I have not used my Samsung tablet in this same manner and yet the picture shows the result. I'm just so stuck with what to buy next if this is how bad modern (or samsung) displays are.

Hi, it's pretty urgent.

Yesterday I've wiped everything except Micro SD card, USB-OTG, and Internal Storage (so Dalvik, Cache, Metadata, Data). From that point it's impossible to mount the Data partition. I tried Repair File System with no luck (fsck exits with error 255). My main question, for now, is: is it still possible to recover files from my internal storage (photos etc.)? Or do I just have to format and lose everything? Please, help.

Nevermind. Looks like it's an encryption problem after all.

I want to apologize in advance for my grammar. I'm using a dictation software because I hate typing, and I. think far faster than I can type, so it always reads horribly wrong. With that said, here I go.. I have ASMT590 Galaxy tablet. that I am working on routing and doing all the fun stuff too. I've successfully bricked and partially succeeded on too many devices to name. so I will just say that I am fairly confident in my ability to do so, but I am trying something new this time . I'm attempting to remove part of. a boot image from a. stock firmware file, which I'm not exactly sure how to do. I'd like to do it correctly because I'm fairly confident that this would cause more problems if I start inserting files that don't belong into places that don't need them, as opposed to just running the software incorrectly. because I've fixed that quite a few times with no problems, but I think inserting files that completely warp the database is going to mess me up even more. So if somebody could tell me I have the tar md 5 firmware image, I just need to find the file that I need. I guess it's supposed to end up as a boot image, but it's supposed to be removed from part of this stock boot image that. does not run. easily. I guess I'm not sure I'm saying this right, but if anybody knows what I'm trying to say, feel free. to bend my ear. I'm listening. I just get frustrated researching and I don't stop and ask for help very easily. I tend to enjoy failing somehow in silence more than I do succeeding with help. So here's me changing my ways. Oh, and I'll be using magisk , TWRP in either a version of lineage. the Viper OS, or just a solid Cali. tablet. This will be a toy for on the road. Oh, and if you could recommend any user friendly interfaces, I can load into Cali or Ubuntu. That would be. nice too. Thank you. P.s. I just wanted to say I also am extremely new to this. I just found out about 9 or 10. or 10 months ago that any of this was interesting to me. And now that I found out how easy it could possibly become, I'm kind of hooked on it. My rate of acceleration from collecting from collecting phones and seeing if I can. get developers options open. and playing with the options inside of developer to impress my less informed friends to wondering if I could become a developer in the near future. And this is just one of the hobbies. I'm quite high functioning Underachiever

[General Questions and Answers] Xcalibur2100:
Hi, if there is a better place to ask this question please let me know! Regardless, I really appreciate the help!

I use sleeping headphones to drown out external noise from waking me up since I am a light sleeper. On my old phone, Galaxy S9, the audio would play continuously all night with no problem 98% of the time. However, with my new phone a Moto G Stylus 5G 2023, the audio times out after ~2.5 hrs on the same headphones, I use these.

I am not totally sure if it is a software problem or a hardware problem with the headphones. I also tested with some Bluetooth earbuds and when I checked them 5 hrs later, they were still playing audio from my Stylus with no problem. I then tested an older pair of the same sleeping headphones and I had the same issues where the audio cuts out, so it isn't just a defective pair.

When I go back to my phone, I have to manually restart the audio track or select a new one, then I hear a short sharp "tick!" sound then audio resumes. Not sure if that sound is coming from Android or my headphones, it sounds kind of like other noises my headphones make.

I am wondering how I can get these sleeping headphones working all night without timing out and why they are functioning differently on the Stylus and from my earbuds?

Upon finding a solution I will literally rest easier, thank you!

I am rooted, so have many options. Are you rooted?

One thing to first try is to set the "App battery usage" unrestricted.

Settings>Apps>[app name]>App Battery Usage>Unrestricted

Personally, I use 33dB soft earplugs from the chemist.
[General Questions and Answers] Xcalibur2100:
Hi thank you for the response! The phone is not rooted it is just the stock Moto OS of 13. I actually have tried changing the battery usage of all related apps, including Bluetooth itself to unrestricted. It appears that the phone plays the audio continuously just fine. Like if it is out of the loudspeakers or in my earbuds it can go all night.

For some reason my headphones will stop receiving the audio. They are still on with lots of power and connected via Bluetooth though. It is so weird, I haven't been able to find much discussion of this issue, I was only able to find one or two unresolved questions on Amazon relating to this problem.

But I want to figure this out in case I do buy new headphones, so the same problem doesn't reoccur.
[General Questions and Answers] DiamondJohn:
Maybe ask your question to the company selling and/or manufacturing your new headphones. Its n their interest to give you a solution, and should know the tech around the product.
[General Questions and Answers] Xcalibur2100:
Sounds good, I am waiting to hear back from an email I sent. They did reply to my first email, so hopefully we'll be in touch soon.

It sounds like it is most likely not an issue with Android then... it is just so weird that the headphones don't like my new phone.

[General Questions and Answers] DuskIntoNight:
Hi all. I'm looking into getting a handheld android gaming device. Unlike most who seem to be interested in these handhelds for retro emulation, I'm not: I only want this device to play android games. I know that sounds strange, but I'm addicted to JRPG gacha games... and that probably sounds stranger, haha.

Anyway, I've narrowed my options down to the Ayn Odin 2 and the Razer Edge.

The Ayn Odin 2 has android 13: a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8Gen2 CPU; 8 GB of ram; 128 GB storage; 8000mAh Battery; Hall Sticks; and a 1080p 6 inch screen.

The Razer Edge has android 12; a Qualcomm Snapdragon G3x Gen 1; 6 GB of ram; 1080p 6.8 inch (20:9) screen which is AMOLED; Corning Gorilla Glass 6; and 128 GB storage.

I can get the Edge on ebay for what seems like $250 USD in average. The Odin 2 is $300 from their official website.

In your guys' opinions, which should I get? I really, really like OLED screens, and the Edge is less expensive. Then again, the Edge weirdly has only 6 GB of RAM, and the Odin 2 has the conventional 8 GB.

I am also interested in the question of which device would be easier to root and de-google, because I dont think either device will ever get any OS updates from their manufacturers.

Thanks for any advice, it will be highly appreciated.
[General Questions and Answers] Renate:
My priorities are probably different than yours.

Because I have much more experience with Qualcomm, I go for that. (Both are.)

For serious hacking I want an unrestricted Firehose loader to EDL whatever I like.

Motorola generally has restricted EDL loaders.

To be fair, they give you enough to get you to fastboot and you can proceed from there.

If anybody has either of them, try an EDL client and get HWID and PK hash from them.

(It does no harm if you don't even load a loader or do anything.)
