Okay, any another solution from you before resetting ? Maybe also putting new sd card file from img I got?
[General Questions and Answers] YiNiX:
Ok bro's sorry for double post but update. I figured out cause of my problems and why is vold not helping. Its because I installed optional adaptable storage before and now my phone memory is messed up. The problem is now in system/internal memory and when I restart phone with card it says disconnected and without sd card and inserting it later, not detecting. So I was thinkin to flash that thing I downloaded. Now my questions are

1. Will flashing stock/same baseband firmware/ROM remove patched files from optional storage.

2. Will same/stock baseband firmware/ROM overwrite xposed framework and

3. Do I need to remove xposed framework before flashing same baseband firmware/ROM from another country?

4. What should I backup on PC before flashing firmware/rom? - What will stock ROM delete?

5. Should I just hard/factory reset it with backup (even tho I dont have really important stuff on the phone right now, maybe contacts and SMS, lol), if so what software for backup you recommend?

Sorry for long and double post!
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
Don't be afraid of this bunch of doubts but simply why do you need to do to achieve what do you want.

What do you want to preserve if as they are the things are wrong.

If you have some important data atleast messages then take a backup using Smart Switch, you can use it onto your device (move after of the file to a safe place) or also you can do it in your pc.

Then go to recovery and do factory reset (this will wipe settings, apps installed from user, root, xposed and your internal memory)

from the same menu go to bootloader (download mode) and in Odin flash your desired rom just be careful to not downgrade the android version.
[General Questions and Answers] YiNiX:
Ok, I tried something but it failed, I tried wiping in TWRP for factory reset, instead it got stuck in Samsung Logo so I soft reset it, and poof Android restarted itself on the phone, but the memory is still messed up and its not even allowing me use camera, it comes out with error "Turn USB memory off before using camera". Btw TWRP came out with "Unable to mount storage".

I can try going in advance with TWRP or doing factory reset from phone or flashing custom or stock ROM to see if it fixes memory ****-up. Its 100% software problem.
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
No, in the case you actually have TWRP installed better flash over a stock recovery using Odin in tar format (extract it from the firmware and do a tar file using 7zip) reboot now to stock recovery and do factory reset then reboot to download mode (bootloader from stock recovery menu), then flash all your rom stock using Odin, better return completely to stock.

Then come back again to the play.

Hey anyone knows how to backup boot image via fastboot ??
[General Questions and Answers] YiNiX:
Okay, there is definitely some error (probably because I messed with VOLD, **** I hate that file) in files because it just gets stuck on booting Samsung Logo after doing factory reset. I have to soft reset it. So, stock recovery worked, factory reset kinda worked? The root and TWRP is gone. Only thing I can do is now install another stock ROM/Firmware from Hungary, closest to my place. Is it actually safe to flash stock ROM on already stock one and will it replace system/bin files, I really need that :)

Solution N2 : Try reinstalling optional adaptable storage again and hope it patches the files? But yeah I would need TWRP and Root again.

Need root for stock ROM? Need TWRP or can flash it through Odin?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Not with fastboot, but it can be done with adb or terminal emulator.

Thanks but I need the boot image to root my device. The matter is that I got a second hand phone from my uncle to experiment on it, as he knows that I love tweaking Android. The device is vivo v3 max, with no development support. There is a twrp, but it doesn't work. Installation of magisk fails, first with error 1 then continuously with error 255. So I will try to root it by patched boot image. I can download the stock rom for the boot image, but I just asked it out of curiosity. I went into twrp file manager and tried to take a copy of mmcblk021(boot image) in the internal storage, but it said that permission denied
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
If it's a MTK device, MTK droid tools might be able to backup/extract boot.img from the device.

If you can download the stock firmware, just use that instead, it's much easier.

Just quick update for anyone and if anyone ever encounter the problem with memory (internal or SD), wrong, corrupted system files etc. save your data and flash a new firmware (just do some research before it). There is very high chance that it will work. Thanks everyone so far for helping me and guiding me. I will keep around and try to help people. By the way it may come with some new apps on your phone, lol!
[General Questions and Answers] KazimierzW:
I'm hoping this is the right place to ask, partially because I'm not sure of the right wording/terminology. Is there a way to keep apps that are running from Samsung's Secure Folder from having their "windows" show when signed back into the secure folder? If I have apps running in the secure folder and I give my phone to someone to use quickly, I don't want them to be able to see what apps are running in the secure folder. Right now, all the "windows" for all apps running on the phone are visible, making the use of the secure folder option feel less secure/private.

I hope I am making sense here, hehe.

Thanks!

Hello, is there any apps/modules like the fake WiFi module that is found in xposed? I have noticed that particular app does not seem to work on Android 8.0.
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
After to set your password/pin or anyelse unlock method and after of choose your files, images, apps to keep and run with Secure folder will be available in recents view and they can be opened, viewed all them including Secure Folder and all the contents itself but.....

You have to restart your device for first time inmediately to do all your stuff, then is probably that the app it is listed in recents so memory keeps the last apps opened but the app (by i.e) being listed won´t have a visible content.

here I show you an example of this, I opened briefing app from Secure Folder and opened separately from my desktop home and this happen:

[General Questions and Answers] KazimierzW:
Thank you for the reply. I understand how the content is hidden, but the fact that the app is actually running isn't. I was hoping there was a way from preventing the blank app window from appearing at all. I figured it wasn't possible, but thought I would ask some experts. :)
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
If you already have TWRP just flash them through it.

if you have bootloader unlocked also you can flash them using fastboot. Additional you can use QPST/QFIL to flash in meta-mode locked/unlocked devices.

---------- Post added at 12:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:04 AM ----------

This is easily achieved; just clear recents frequently and inmediately after to leave your device. If you fear some periodic time in special you can set up a specific time to do it through Device Care app to clear all for you. Additional Samsung can be programmed to restart device on a specific time too.

[Solved]

I managed to solve my problem. The solution was in front of me:

(bootloader)	product: ESKY6580_WE_L

I looked on the Internet for a ROM of that, and I found this one. There were others but they had fees, this didn't.

I used SP Flash Tools (Format all + Download). Phone is working again. It changed the boot logo and there is no longer any trace of the brand "Fiesta Duo" model "I6C". However, that was not important for me, as long as it keeps working.

I haven't tested everything yet. But all seems to be OK.

Hope this info helps somebody else, because I couldn't find anything under the brand Fiesta Duo, model I6C. There is no official website of the vendor, nor the product. :rolleyes:

Will try to root again, though.

Mi Action Camera 4k

Okay this is going to be hard.

I have recently got a sweet deal on a Xiaomi Mi Action Camera 4k. It's an awesome small camera that just works. You can also connect it to your phone and watch the display from distance as long as it's in the same network - so far so good.

But then i was like "I want to check if this cam can go as a webcam" but it turns out, you can't just plug it in and use it as such. My question is, is there a workaround or a way to use my Mi Action Camera 4k as a 1080p/60fps webcam or any resulution webcam.

Thanks in advance!
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
I´m not familiar with this kind of thing, but I guess that any modern/digital camera or handset with camera can be used like a webcam. Maybe you need to install the firmware, here you will find some information and the link to it, just use some translate app https://c.mi.com/thread-519682-1-0.html

DNS server not authoritative for zone.

I've been trying to flash TWRP on my Moto X Force by following the fastboot install method but after typing

fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

the command prompt returns "DNS server not authoritative for zone".

I saw someone with that same problem online that managed to fix it with the following commands:

DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

this seemed to work fine, returned "The component store corruption was repaired"

sfc /scannow

this one returned "Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations." so I tried

fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

again but got the same result.

I'm just so lost here, I was hoping to install TWRP easily so I could root my phone but I had to fumble with drivers for more than I'd like to admit and now I get this error that even google doesn't know much about :(. Anyone have any ideas on how I could fix it?

I looked online and it seems it's a problem with Moto devices where they won't allow a software that's older than the current one to be flashed on the device. Again, found a few similar cases online but all of them required a stock ROM and, from what I could tell, did not have to do with Recovery/TWRP.

I feel kinda overwhelmed by all of this tbh, never thought it could be this difficult to simply root a smartphone. Could you please help me out?

So I've tried for the past 4 to 5 hours to find a fix for my issue and have tried multiple "fixes"and nothing works someone please help!!

I am on my Chromebook Linux installed everything should be updated.

I have a Galaxy s3 and when I try to run adb devices it comes back no permissions so I run sudo adb devices and it comes back with device number but won't let me anything. I've tried everything from restarting both devices unplugging and replugging revoking USB permissions turning off developer options turning them back on tried running different checks that I found online that says should pics when I plug USB cord into my S3 the little pop-up box that says allow USB permissions or whatever does not pop up it will not request to give permission for I cannot figure out why it will not do it please someone help
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
Well, in the paper It should not be that hard to do it. In fastboot you can flash what you want ever that you typed the right sintaxis, your bootloader is unlocked and the size partition allows such sized file. Newer devices implemented some additional barriers depending on the bootloader version but in your case I don´t think that fastboot check if the file is current nor older so is a custom partition not a stock firmware part.

Moto devices have its own fastboot script (for most advanced task including unbrick), note if the fastboot files that you have are mfastboot or just fastboot, in the first case you have to type mfastboot followed by the related partition command. It looks like your recovery is a little large for this device, recheck the size.

If you want a simplified method unpack this zip in your main drive usually c: and put your recovery inside the folder, run as administrator "run-adb" file (no need to open a window with shift+right mouse button)

Trying to root my old Motorola Moto G3 and recieved the string of code that you input into the Motorola website. A "Request Key" button popped up, I clicked it. The site refreshed to an error page. I went back, it logged me out of my account so I signed back in. Tried the string again and it said my phone wasn't unlockable. So I waited for an email with my Key and it's been a full day. I emailed Motorola and no response.

What can I do? I need to unlock this bootloader.

[General Questions and Answers] BarkingPup:
Spam, Promotions, Social, Inbox, even checked my other two email accounts seperately just in case. Nothing.
[General Questions and Answers] DragonFire1024:
Double check you copied everything properly from the command line. If that fails, Iwould first do a factory reset then try getting the code again. If that doesn't work, try flashing your stock firmware. I don't know if Motorola has an expiration on emails sent vs the amount of times you can request, if there are any limit.

Edit: I unlocked my G3 a month or two ago or so. So it was still eligible then.

[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
It seems that the issue is in your device itself but to be sure Did you try in other machine or using a different OS?. I never had this issue in my GS4, guessing that you dirty flashed some custom roms it remains traces of old files in your system so It could help by doing a factory reset (taking a backup before).

Also there is some helpul apps like ADB Connect (No Root) from Play Store.

It could happen that you have most of one Samsung drivers version and this could cause conflicts, uninstall all of them and then install the last stable version.

Affirmative, there's a difference. The Xposed Installer from the Magisk repo is modified to suit the Xposed Framework Magisk module, what the "original" Xposed Installer doesn't do. This means the correct Xposed Installer depends on the Framework you intend to use.
