[General Questions and Answers] DragonFire1024:
So I believe I may have discovered the problem. About a week or two ago I had downloaded Google Chrome Dev. The problem with that, and I didn't think of it until now, is having to log in to your account again because the environments are different and the fact that I am using a image from a different device than the one i own doesn't help. Some Chromebooks also allow you to sign in on the same device twice, using the same email account. Here's where the problem started. while journeying from another image to another image I never signed out of the second account that was signed in. When it comes to Chromebooks they consider the first person to log in on a fresh device to be the technical device owner for life. And if you happen to sign in twice and don't log out of the other account the device will automatically take ownership away from you and place it in the hands of your now ghost account. doing this will also trigger policies and device management. For what I can gather the good thing about this it doesn't appear to be a device owner, But more or less a device administrator in the sense of belonging to a school or another org. Now I may be able to fix this sooner rather than later because there are several applications that you can download from the Play Store that take advantage of the work profile account(s) and if there is no device owner currently assigned to the device, you can use these applications to Take it over as device owner. So I may have to use an application like Island. I can administer the application as a device owner and when I am done release it back to me theoretically speaking.

With all of that being said yes there does appear to have been a device administrator application triggered in this process which made things a little bit worse than it should have been. I don't think the application is fully activated or has control over the device because I cannot see it. The only place that shows up is in my list of installed applications in the settings app. Package manager doesn't find it. Other applications used to determine package names cannot find it. So I can't even determine it's correct package name other than it is an APK called Chrome Device Manager. Luckily it has not made itself a system app because I am still able to disable it. though I'm sure it doesn't have any actual effect because it's policy is are already activated, or at least some of them are.

All right so here's the deal. I go back to stock to the original firmware and all and everything is fine. I can toggle everything on I can toggle everything off I can go to Chrome flags. I can toggle all the settings including ones that would be toggled if the device was managed and nowhere does it say that I'm not the device owner. It all starts when I go to any of these images for some bizarre reason and I can't figure it out. I've even tried signing out of my account on other devices and making sure there was nothing connected but somehow even after deleting the backups of any possible connection of these devices it still has the appearance of a managed device though it is not. I am completely lost.

hello

Im looking for an app whom enable for few minutess (1 or 2 eg) and then disable the data

it's for those two things :

without cell data enabled, MMS are not sent but mainly not received)

if the phone is lost, stolen or forgotten somewhere it might be good to allow tracing it, but almost all tools are requiring cell data. Simple sms remote doesnt work well (at least one time on ten, when it works) ; all others tools requires data.

but, some subscription or cell network offers, doesnt bring so much data. Here I have about 50MB data, believe me I cant let it run in 3G or 4G all the day or it kills my quota. Dont tell me to set up it in the parameters : I need something regarding the frequency, eg 2min of data per hour, everyday. Not more, not less.

do you know any apk whom can do it?

I thank you vm

[General Questions and Answers] LordLiverpool:
I still a question before I try this.

Since I've already unlocked the bootloader and rooted, do I need to do the vbmeta_disabled.tar step?

From reading this it sounds as if I do need the multidisabler. And I'll answer my original question: yes, this will wipe the phone.
[General Questions and Answers] lm8lm8:
hi guys

Im looking for three type of apps :

a/ a first app whom can connect automatically to free/opened hotspot, without auth/credentials ; does it exists? I tried the https://f-droid.org/fr/packages/pw.thedrhax.mosmetro/, it does not works

b/ a second app whom can enable for 1 or 2 minutes the cell data, each hour. for those two needs :

*. it's the only way to receive MMS, and we dont think to enable or disable it everyday ; without data, MMS cant be received. But a very low quota makes too fast a huge of toll/charged data (over quota)

*. almost all apps aiming to geolocate are doing it through internet. Well, on low data quota, it's just impossible to "have data/internet enabled" outside all the time. And in case of phone stolen, forgotten or lost, it would be very useful to locate it.. up to now without data, only "simple sms remote" app could do it : on ten attempts, only one work, sometimes. not really good unfortunately.

c/ a third app to allow sms backup to custom cloud or storage.

I have well sms backup & restore, unfortunately it does backup it only locally, and 99% of mobile (ios/android) backup apps does it only on multimedia (pics/video), not others files (notes, memo, backups..) ; sms b&r can upload it only to american clouds, whom here we don't deal with (ggle/drive/dropbox), but it would be very practical to get it working on others EUR cloud, or even custom nextcloud. The idea is to backup once a day or week all sms/mms/call, but on a specific cloud.. any idea? :)

I thank you vm!!
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
Not sure why you tried to flash the whole firmware, while the guide is made about boot and vbmeta images only.

Anyway, that thread, seems to me, lack of some details.

First you have to check the KG status in the download screen, to be sure, this operation can be done.

If all is OK with KG status, then you can continue.

I can't sure you completely, because I don't have (nor had) this specific device, but from all the A series I rooted (10. 20. 30. 50. 71), only I need the boot image and the vbmeta disabler, not the vbmeta contained in the stock firmware, the idea is not to use the stock one, but an empty image to disable the AVB.

Decompress the firmware, extract the boot image, put it in your A51, patch it, then transfer it to your PC, and convert it in a tarball file, the same with the vbmeta disabler, you can use the one from here https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-magis...ocked-exynos-only-a10s-not-supported.3963822/, better, compress both files, in a single tar file, and flash it using Odin, through the AP slot.
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
The purpose of vbmeta disabler is mainly to can boot to OS, after to introduce some modifications, so, if you could boot, then it's (was) not needed, while the multidisabler is different from, it has more purposes, related to stock recovery being reinstalling, vault keeper, some "failed" warning messages, etc.

By unlocking the bootloader, it makes a complete factory reset, but this is not needed to flash TWRP, a different thing, is that probably you need to do so, to have access to the internal storage, or can make some back ups through TWRP, but performing a factory reset is not needed to flash TWRP, before nor after.
[General Questions and Answers] LordLiverpool:
The bootloader is already unlocked.

But it sounds like the multidisabler requires wiping data.

As to whether I need the multidisabler, from this:

FBE (file-based encryption) will prevent TWRP reading the data partition, apparently. Is that a problem? It sounds like one (I think that's what you meant by TWRP having access to internal storage).

Since OEM unlock is on and disabled, I gather that Vaultkeeper is already disabled.

It sounds as if TWRP might require Stock recovery auto-restoration to be disabled, and maybe Process authentication.

Actually disabling FBE apparently means reformatting the data partition. That's something else I'll have to work out how to do.

while that could be a option, i do not have a device that powerful. i aim to use said device with a lineage 18 custom rom and use Netflix and Disney+. safetynet and cts profile are false. while safetynet i can fix with some modules, cts profile refuses to work. For Netflix most apps refuses to work, an old app being partially a solution, no idea for how long. Disney+ refuses to cooperate as well. The idea is to get these apps working in browser form, like the experience they provide for windows running devices. Therefore my question about spoofing my android tablet as a windows tablet
[General Questions and Answers] PaveKoo:
Anyone?? Some help.... pointing to right direction.....
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
It seems that the zip don't do that, but users prefer to combine with formatting data, in order to have access to userdata partition while TWRP is running.

No, as far, you don't need to have access to the internal storage.

Yes, if OEM was effectively unlocked, and the toggle grayed out, VaultKeeper is out of field.

In devices with a recovery partition, you only need to flash it and boot to it at least once, and in devices that haven't a recovery partition, you need to boot to it, then flash it permanently to the ramdisk partition, and it will never be overwritten without the user interaction.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
You asked about spoofing the tablet as a tablet running Windows. This implies that you wanted to use Windows on your tablet. Now you are saying that you want to use LineageOS with some specific apps, these two concepts are not the same thing.

You don't want a Windows experience, you just want to be able to watch Netflix and Disney+ on your tablet. You could have just said that from the beginning.

There is a Disney+ app in the Playstore, what is the issue?

It all boils down to when was the tablet made and what version of Android it is running and whether it is Google Play Protected.

[General Questions and Answers] lm8lm8:
hi guys

I have been told today several things about vowifi and volte.

could you confirm that :

a/ there is only 4G and 5G networks in the us?

b/ is the vorn (voice over 5G?) working well in the us?

c/ to make compatible a 4G device, both operators/service provider and manufacturer have to handly cooperate on the configuration on both infrastructure of service plus mobile device?

d/ if old LTE devices are not supported, that just means the operator and the manufacturer didnt dealed to make it working, not that the device itself cant work

e/ imagine there are about 2000 (its an example) different models of LTE device in the world, LTE compatibles. Means that both operator plus manufacturer have to agreed on the way to enable VoLTE, for each model?

f/ does american people just accepted without complaining that their both 2G/3G networks shutted down, making their old device not working anymore, eg in case their main phone doesnt works.. in some country people like to get a second hand phone, doesnt mean it's 4G compatible. Nobody cmplained in the US for the 2/3G shutdown? even expatriates or tourists?

g/ iphone 5x are LTE compatible : if volte is not supported, that's just because apple dont care, even if the components could be working with?

h/ for android or lineage : does a developper could make a 4G phone compatible with volte, by adding all ISP configuration withing the phone? or users can do a such thing?

thank you vm!

So it seems like I don't necessarily need the multidisabler either. OK, then I'll try just flashing TWRP.
[General Questions and Answers] 3×5:
Hi there, I'm cross-posting, which might be bad form, I don't know. But I'm doing this because my other post was for a very specific device, and I thought maybe I should ask it more broadly:

Basically, my Android device is a Treble, AB (system-as-root), VNDKLITE system, and I downloaded a Lineage GSI for it that matched those specs.

Here's where I went wrong: I erased the system partition and tried to flash the GSI image to it; however, this phone has a super partition, and the tutorial I was following was not for that kind of device.

So now my system partition is no good and I need to know where to go from here. I grabbed a stock rom that has all these super.img_sparsechunk files in it, and I'd like to either flash the stock ROM, or (if possible), properly flash my GSI. There are more details in the thread linked above. Thanks so much for your help.
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
In case you want to return to stock ROM, if no more modifications were done, then it's possible by flashing again the super partition, using fastboot. (still curious how you erase the system on a device that has a super partition)

If you instead, want to continue with the main purpose, you have to reboot to fastbootd, if you are in fastboot then do fastboot reboot fastboot, check which partition is active, then target to that partition with fastboot flash system_a/b GSI.img. After that, you probably need to wipe with fastboot -w (in order to can boot)

I tried just flashing TWRP in the AP slot, but got a vbmeta error (I couldn't get to recovery, it just went straight to downloadm mode). So I tried flashing TWRP and vbmeta_disabled_R.tar in the USERDATA slot, as suggested on the original page I referenced. But now I get:

Error verifying vbmeta image: HASH_MISMATCH (3)

vbmeta: VERIFICATION_DISABLED bit is set

CUSTOM VBMETA

I recall that I got the HASH_MISMATCH error when I tried to patch the stock firmware with Magisk and flash the whole thing. I got around it by just patching boot.img and flashing that. Is that what I should try?

(Again, the phone goes straight to download mode - I can't get to recovery)

[General Questions and Answers] stigward:
Hi all, I have a pretty basic question I believe but this is my first venture into the Android ecosystem.

Basically I found a kernel bug in the FiiO M6 and I am trying to write an exploit for it, but I need to do some kernel debugging in order to get that done (don't have root on the device). In order to do this, I figured the easiest thing to do would be to emulate the device/kernel. I was able to extract the firmware offered for public download by FiiO, which includes the following:

META-INF

bootloader

dtb

file_contexts.bin

kernel

ldfw

ramdisk

recovery

system.new.dat

system.patch.dat

system.transfer.list

Is this enough to get an emulated version of the device running? I tried to a few things, including

`./emulator -avd Pixel_6_Pro_API_32 -kernel ./kernel -system ./system.new.dat -ramdisk ./ramdisk -verbose -show-kernel -qemu -enable-kvm -wipe-data`

which gave:

ERROR | no init encryptionkey.img

ERROR | Encryption is requested but failed to create encrypt partition.

I also played around with just using qemu on the kernel image, but to no avail. Does anyone have any resources or help the could provide in order to get me set up?

[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
To try again to flash a custom ROM, repeat the process, boot to TWRP using fastboot, then, probably, as you can´t boot with CMDs, then try booting manually to it, once you get it, flash the TWRP image, in the ramdisk (assuming that one exists).

Or, you can, always return to stock, as the bootloader is unlocked, you can use fastboot, to flash, only the images, you replaced in the process.

But selling sites offer new models.

Is there a site where I can look with filter for old models?

2) Mediatek SoC (available software for IMEI recovery)

3) led/amoled etc display

4) 4GB ram

Hi.

I'm currently using a Samsung A7 Lite that updated when purchased to Android 13.

I'm trying to find an app that will support USB audio that can either be an input for a microphone, or an output to a DAC or amplifier. I use a FiiO X3 with it's DAC to drive my headphones and on my other android devices, they let me use a programm called "Lesser AudioSwitch" This program has been great for me as as soon as I plug my DAC or external microphone in, it disables the built in equivilents.

I really could do with a way to use the type C port as an audio input and output. However, i don't use it for type C headphones directly - I want it to go through my FiiO X3. Even if it is an app to pay for, it would be worth having. I would just want to know it will do what i need.

Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
I don´t think, that flashing the whole firmware may improve the results, you have to use in this case the stock vbmeta (when patching the AP file), but also you can try by using the blank vbmeta, but, md5sum has to match.

Also, I patch it in the past a vbmeta with Magisk, read in the thread, the way, there was a Magisk script to do so.

And if you think to use, as recommended, the boot and the blank vbmeta, both compressed in a single tar file, then you can try by renaming it AP, and patching it with Magisk.
