This post here: https://android.stackexchange.com/a/218963/364009

outlines the snapshots location for the app switcher when an app is sent to the background, /data/system_ce//snapshots, or at least something similar for File Based Encryption Android phones running 9.0 pie and up. Are these snapshots encrypted? If not, can they be recovered after a factory reset with special software?

See post here: https://android.stackexchange.com/a/198080/364009

mentioning exceptions to directories that are not encrypted, like /system_ce, because their subdirectories are encrypted. Does this mean these snapshots are encrypted if /userid is also encrypted or /userid/snapshots is encrypted?

Thank you!

Hi there, I have the same device with issues due to a failed update. Is there any chance you could share your system dump? I've been unable to get mine to dump anything using SP Flash tools.

Does flashing to a custom ROM make my RNE-L21 (Huawei Mate 10 Lite) LDAC capable? I read something about it is always in Android 8.0 (which i have) or newer, but my phone doesn't have it, I only see AAC :(
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
It probably won't use the mic on the phone, it typically defaults to whatever is plugged in the jack.

If it won't work by just plugging the phone in, a potential workaround might be to get a bluetooth-to-AM/FM transceiver that plugs into a cigarette lighter/12v charger outlet to pair the phone to the radio via the transceiver, it has a mic in it. Maybe a little convoluted but may work if it will let you run medis via headphone jack and calls via bluetooth at the same time. Or try audio via USB to USB if your stereo has a USB port and if your phone supports audio via USB, it may let you use audio via USB and calls via Bluetooth paired directly to the stereo.
[General Questions and Answers] DiamondJohn:
I think you misunderstood me. The Bluetooth audio DOES work, and from memory, I received a call while it was playing (of course the music paused during the call). However, Bluetooth music is total crap. Hence, I now use the AUX input on the car, using the headphone jack out of the phone. But I want to receive and make calls using the Bluetooth functionality of the car; with steering wheel controls.; I can already do a fair-bit on the phone using OK Google. Bluetooth through to FM would be even worse. I enjoy my music at high quality. And if it came down to a choice, I would forego Bluetooth phone integration to achieve the best audio. The previous owner actually used a Bluetooth to FM transmitter; as its a jap import and the menu is in japanese and so he couldnt navigate the menu. But I have had it converted/translated to English (1st thing I did), so I can navigate the menu and get things done. On a side, there is a thread here on XDA where people drop in Android Tesla style (ie a panel) replacement head units, and on Alibaba there are plug-n-play units for this car.

I actually tried last night to connect the phone only via Phone-Bluetooth, and it seems as if the connectivity of Bluetooth, may actually be paired using the audio route in the menu; not individually/separately, as I originally thought. There are "Pairing" menus at both locations in the menu, but there isn't an actual pairing process (ie device finder) within the phone section, only within audio/music.

How to recompile kernel source and add swap features​
[General Questions and Answers] Fytdyh:
First of all, try to dig around looking for the stock rom. Within the stock ROM, get the boot image. Given it has a mediatek processor, there might be two options: either try flashing the patched boot image (magisk) through fastboot or try unlocking the bootloader and then flash the patched boot image.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
No, I understood you, I was trying to offer potential solutions that would seperate the functions, audio via one route and calls via another route and a way to have a mic, "if" it will allow you to separate the functions to take different paths instead of audio, calls and useable mic all on the same path. Maybe I didn't make my point well or maybe it won't even work or maybe can't be done in a way that seperates the functions and keeps mic/steering wheel functionality.

[General Questions and Answers] Ningen302:
Thanks but even if this works its for the wrong phone im looking for something like this for the x50 lite
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
I doubt you find something strictly specific to your device, this kind of solutions are grouped into brands, chipsets, etc.

It works similarly to flashing tool applications, they are intended to do the job for Qualcomm, Intel, MediaTek devices, there’s no one per model., even for specific OEMs there are some that can work for all the wide line of models i.e. Odin for all Samsung devices.

It doesn't hurt trying it, also it's highly probable that formatting data can avoid it.
[General Questions and Answers] Ningen302:
I tried this sadly it did not work thats what I meant. and formatting does not fix my issue it's a retail or live demo unit so they make it harder to disable it ive also tried the dialer code that resets the firmware for vivo phones but either those are disabled on retail units or just don't work for this phone I've spent about 10 hours googling and searching forums but it's not the most popular device so not a lot comes up
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
Probably it worked for older devices, or for those with MediaTek while yours, I guess, is Qualcomm, though.

I didn't use them my self, but I saw some tiny tools that within other features have this, search for "Vivo Demo remove tool", and you'll find some like this https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=17825722713688265108

[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
There are some ROMs available here, https://vivofirmware.com/vivo-x50-lite-pd1982f.

Probably you can try entering in safe mode, usually powering on with both volume buttons pressed, you find the app or some related and uninstall or disable it.

Also, try disabling the app through pm commands.

Check in Apps administrators if something is found.

I think I tried pm commands not entirely sure tho could you explain what it is ? So I know
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
In some Google versions it was just like a display screen saver, in newer, most likely is implemented like an app.

You should check in Accessibility or in Admin apps.

Probably not exactly that it is a ROM retail, this such thing doesn't exist, but it has to be something "integrated" to the system like an app or some scripts that run with admin privileges.

It can be avoided, if some OTA update comes, or if you can update by your self: All the links are checked and working, you might have the right model version.

Man...I'm truly confused or my tablet isn't displaying all the options. Yesterday I posted what I'll attach below and it was removed for doubling posting. OK. Whoops. Didn't mean to do that. So where would I post this or even better do you know the answer? How do I post this as no post option seems to be available.

I am trying to set up a PPP connection from a Zte MF820b 4G LTE USB modem/router to a WiFi only Android tablet with a 4.2.2 os that has a custom ROM installed which technically shouldnt of been jailbroken. The tablet is running a Linux version 2.4.3 and KERNEL:3.0.36. The problem here is me. I am a complete newbie, but do know a little about command prompts and how this should work in theory. The tablet is fully rooted and has all the necessary applets installed via busy box(chat, nc, pppd, ect) and terminal emulator, or at least I think that's what's necessary. I installed PPPwidget 2 and 3 but as apk's and since they are not from the Play Store will not function. I have Google play store installed but its all but useless since I can not log into my account, for reasons I suspect as being that the system is too old and says something about the connection not being secure or private and as such...can not actually get the app with license verification from Google play store. I tried to lucky patch the apk and remove license verification but that did nothing as well. However the apk will read the modem and ask permission to allow pppwidget to be used but shortly fail after for the aforementioned lack of correct license. There must be a way to manually call the modem and connect via terminal emulator using adb ppp or nc? Without any understanding on how to actually write a script I'm hoping someone can help me get this functioning. Situation beyond current controll will not allow me to work with anything other than what's at hand, and I'm willing to pay for someones time if I can actually get this working. I also have a tablet with a different os (8.1 Oreo) should that be easier. With the 4.2.2 the device pops up as "storage" in my file manager. With the 8.1 it pops up as a device Id number when I type in lsusb in my terminal emulator. The 8.1 has Termux installed should that open up a different venue. The carrier I'm using is T-Mobile and the nameserver and ISP info is NS1-AUTH.SPRINTLINK.NET; IP 206.228.179.10. The device is functional as when the opportunity arose I was able to plug up to a computer and try it out. That's no longer viable. Again, I'm willing to pay for the help as I'm sure I'll need to correspond back and forth a few times and will probably need help writing the correct script if needed. Please email me @ Rachelsanchez888@gmail.com. Thank you.
[General Questions and Answers] DiamondJohn:
I forgotten he name as I never do it. Basically WIPE ALL USER DATA which should wipe the settings and hopefully default it back to a normal phone.

Also, do a search in settings for "demo", it may take you directly to the setting to switch it off. On one of my phones, its in developer options, which you have to turn on manually. You can search for how everywhere here
[General Questions and Answers] Ningen302:
Done this. it's not just demo it's retail mode, which is demo but locked, and the only way to turn retail on is via the first time set up of the phone in the language selection there is a retail mode at the bottom and I'm pretty sure that's what I'm struggling with. And the developer options demo setting is a thing on vivo phones but that option is hidden on my device because of retail mode. My phone was a live in store demo which they sold because it's a year old and there are newer equivalents

Is any workaround available? I've done a search here, to no avail,

could anyone point me in the right direction, please,

Thanks a lot,
[General Questions and Answers] milanv5:
No. Playstore works on rooted devices. It's simply that the software is too old (4.2.2) and there's little to no technical support for Google, since upkeep is not cost effective compared to how many os's actually use software that old

Edit #1: I have a Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) and I have been told in another thread that I have the correct firmware upgrade (file is named "Samfw.com_SM-N960F_INS_N960FXXU9FUK1_fac.zip").

Edit #2: I am upgrading the firmware in anticipation of flashing an entirely new ROM, if that makes a difference. Going from an older version of (ALEXNDR.N960FXXU6FTJ5 Build number) to Noble ROM 2.0.

When upgrading firmware with Odin, I unzip the file that I got from Samsung's website and I match the files to the corresponding boxes in Odin based on the file prefixes ("BL_...md5" goes in the 'BL' box, 'AP' to 'AP', etc.).

But what about the 5th file in the zip (starts with "HOME_CSC" and the 5th box in Odin ("USERDATA")? I don't need those?
[General Questions and Answers] Fytdyh:
Just out of curiosity, is this your first time flashing a rom through Odin? There are countless guides on youtube. Given that you have a flagship device, the answers to your questions are a few clicks away. I strongly recommend you do your homework before flashing random stuff on your smartphone. Samsung phones are a pain to recover from a hard brick
[General Questions and Answers] Dougmeister:
No, I've done it a few times before, but it has been a few years.

I did the research back then and learned a lot (some, the hard way). I am 99% sure that I have the right files, and using Odin was pretty straightforward last time.

Pretty sure I have to use all four files (and skip HOME_).
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
What you are about to do (or probably done) is flashing an entirely new ROM, leaving some parts doesn't make a difference, updating firmware, if we understand what the firmware stands for, then, it's not possible in Samsung devices without flashing the entire ROM.

HOME_CSC=If contains some update, then it upgrades without wiping anything regards "customized settings, system configurations, localizations and geo-specific things such as the system language, APN settings, and carrier-branding" (sic)

A different CSC file than home (if present)=Wipe completely the cited above and change its preferences for a new one.

Leaving this box blank=It does nothing.

Userdata=If contains some update, then it upgrades but wiping the userdata partition.

Leaving this box blank=It does nothing.

Hello.

I have a (dropped) Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 that is no longer working. I would really like to retrieve all of the data from this phone but up to now have not been able to.

The screen / digitizer are cracked from the fall. I removed them, replaced and connected a new screen but the only visual input I receive are some colours / static.

A Usb-C to HDMI adapter hub to a Smart TV or laptop did not show any input. Testing another Xiaomi phone connected and showed the phone's home screen instantly.

The Mi Mix 3 is recognised in Windows Device Manager under "Universal Serial Bus devices" with the name "MIX 3", but is not a recognised drive under This PC. This is probably due to being on lockscreen, and since I cannot see the screen or enter my password - there it remains.

It plays the connection notification tone when plugged into the laptop, the flashlight works, there is haptic feedback from the fingerprint scanner, and haptic feedback when sliding the camera mechanism into the down position.

Through all of this I can't enter usb debugging or use adb commands due to that fact.

I'm wondering if anyone could guess the probable issue, or provide any more suggestions on how to retrieve the data!

Thank you very much.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
C

Can't do anything unless you unlock the lockscreen. Find out what is causing the screen not to work, solve that issue first, then you might be able to retrieve the data. Things that could be causing screen not to work may be loose/improperly connected ribbon cable or the screen that you bought might be for a different model number of MiX3 or you may have damaged other parts of your hardware.
[General Questions and Answers] xAxB:
I have a very noobish question. I would like to know the simplest way to stream videos from my Windows 10 PC to my tablet (Galaxy Tab). I am not looking to mirror / cast, I just want to be able to access, select, and play files stored in an external HD on my PC.

Ideally, I would like a solution that does not require too many steps or applications.

I've Googled this topic, and I have seen a couple of suggestions and I would like to know if any of those solutions is the simplest for my purpose. First of all, I guess that every solution requires me to share the location of the media files. I think that Windows 10 might have more than one options there, could anyone let me know what is the most simple / stable solution for that?

After that, I've seen some people say that VLC on Android can find / play files from a network. I've seen some other guide suggest installing ES Explorer to access from file from Android, and *then* use a player like VLC. And I've seen some people mention Plex or Kodi, but I have the feeling that it might be more than what I need.

Just to be clear, I am not looking to share the files on a bunch of devices. Chances are, it will only be PC -> one specific Android device (or maybe two). Also, and I can't imagine this being too much of an issue, but how fast does my wi-fi network be able sustain in order to comfortably stream large, high quality video files without stutter?

Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] Fytdyh:
There are ways to stream those movies. But the best and the simplest way would be to get an micro sdcard. There are sdcards going up to 1 terabyte nowadays. Streaming, even in your own home on your own network, is prone to stutters, at least for those free apps.

Yeah, I realise that is an option, but I have a pretty decent Wi-Fi setup so I figured it would not hurt to see if it can save a bit of hassle copying something that I won't be keeping in the tablet. But let's say that I am going with the SD card option, what would be the best way to setup and access the files on my PC via Wi-Fi?

At the end of the day, I would still like the option to do so via Wi-fi because I often use my tablet in a different room to my PC (that is why I have a tablet), and I may want to access my media files that I haven't copied in advance, without having to go to my PC, hook the USB cable and do it that way. I realise transfer would be quicker, but I value the convenience of not having to use a cable when I just want to quickly grab a file.
