Mate, you are amazing. The method with the micro SD i ve described doesn't have anything to do with adb. Remove the micro SD from phone. Insert it in a new device(a fully working smartphone or computer). Download the zip containing the custom ROM to your fully working smartphone or computer. Copy that to micro SD. Remove it from that device and insert it back in the device you are trying to flash the rom on. Flash the file through twrp.

But still to get TWRP, I need adb right? I have to give the command "adb reboot bootloader" and then "fastboot flash twrp.[version].img" right? I have been doing that only from the beginning since the hard key combination is not giving any display. 😔
[General Questions and Answers] plegdroid:
Afternoon matey.

If Twrp is already installed on the phone, you would not need ADB. Power of the phone press volume down & Power buttons at the same time and it would then boot into TWRP recovery, then from within TWRP, install the rom/gapps from the sdcard. Result!

Are you sure you know about Custom recoverys and flashing custom rooms. You maybe better off researching the whole installation process, then re reading the process before attempting this process.

Hi everyone. Been searching the Web for custom roms for Xperia z5 running android 5.1.1 and seem to be coming to a dead end. I figured this was the best place to find them but I'm having difficulty. Can anybody point me towards where I can find them on the site.

Have you used the stock rom that is specific to your geographical location (assuming when bought, it was bought with the correct firmware for your location) When bought, was it bought sim free from the factory? Is the rom you've flashed specific to a specific provider? Are you 100% sure you have flashed the correct stock rom that was on the phone it come out of the factory with?

When you unlock your bootloader and you have a stock ROM installed, would this prevent from getting OTA updates? Or do you still get (stock) OTA updates with unlocked bootloader?

Hello, recently I have been trying out new roms. When I flashed resurrection remix v5.8.5 on my device (Lenovo vibe k4 note) via TWRP recovery, after that the room was working fine, but magisk came pre-installed, which, when I open, gives an error: "magisk manager has stopped working". So I decided to change to another rom. but I can't boot into recovery menu after flashing resurrection remix os. when I try to boot into recovery, it directly boots the system. And when I power it off, after an hour or two, it automatically powers on and boots the system. I would be grateful if someone helps me. Thank you

Hi everyone! I looked for solutions for the last 4 days so I just think bothering you is my last chance to try to root my Samsung Galaxy S8 (SM-G950F). I have a MacBook Pro so I can't actually use Odin. So I tried some solutions using just my S8: I downloaded TWRP, but it crashed every time I tried to flash. So I downloaded an older version of TWRP and then it worked. I chose my device and downloaded the last .img available. Then I installed Magisk Manager and downloaded the zip file. So I tried to put my device in recovery mode, but nothing happened and TWRP didn't start.

Trying to use my MacBook was even worst. I tried some programs but they weren't able to connect to my device via usb (the USB Debugging was enabled and so the OEM bootloader). Turns out even Samsung Smart Switch is having troubles in connecting MacBook to Galaxy S8.

So my question is: is there any chance I can actually root my S8? Next days I will be able to use also a Windows PC so I think I'll give a try using ODIN, but is actually possible rooting my phone without PC considering all the troubles I've had? I can't see where I could have gone wrong

Thank you

LG LM-K500 here. Still can't root this piece of crap. But I may have come close. Somehow I managed to spook Google Play store because my device is now considered uncertified. Typically that only happens when a device is rooted or has been. this only happened with the last few days because immediately following the event, Google pay the stopped working and disconnected my payment method. When I tried to reconnect my payment method it told me it could not because my device had been rooted blah blah blah something in the system had been changed blah blah blah you know the standard warning you get on a rooted device with Google pay. Since I am not too familiar with how a device would become uncertified if anybody would have some info on how this could have been done, I would love to hear about it.

[General Questions and Answers] Fytdyh:
Your certification problem might not suggest root. As per this article which describes in detail, https://www.einfochips.com/blog/how-to-obtain-googles-gms-license-for-android-devices/, all devices under android 8 will appear un certified, rooted or not.

As for your rooting quest, there might not be a way to unlock the bootloader, since the device doesnt have fastboot. Some mediatek phones do allow for flashing boot images even with a locked bootloader. What you could try is to get the boot image from a stock ROM, patch it with magisk then flash it with sp flash. That would ensure root.

No sound on my phone at all.

Hi. I have a rooted samsung galaxy i8552 running stock rom (jb 4.1.2)

I flashed an audio mod (megabassbeats) the other day via flashgordon (i have no custom recovery). When the phone rebooted, i found that the boot animation made no sound. Once phone was booted, i found that i couldn't play any music/video or access any sort of audio-related app. At first a prompt kept saying "dsp manager stopped working." After several attempts to fix the sound issue (uninstall dsp manager, reboot, re-flash rom, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache and eventually, factory reset) i found that the problem still persisted.

So now, i have no audio whatsoever, whether its music, videos, ringtones, notifications, system sounds - nada. The external speakers do not work. The headphones do not work (although I know they are functional as I have tried them on another device). The microphone does not work.

Additionally, i cannot answer phone calls because both speaker and receiver are non-functional. Plus, I am unable to record any videos using stock camera app or any other camera app (but i can take photos).

It seems that apps that have anything to do with audio or sound (music players, phone, video recorder, audio manager apps, etc) always force close. When I try to use the phone to call someone, the app force closes with the prompt "com.android.phone has stopped working"

It seems unlikely that its a hardware problem because all three audio components are not working. But if it was a software issue, the factory reset should have fixed the problem. I don't know. I am at the end of my wits here.

I've only had the phone for less than 2 months and I have searched the internet for ways to clean reset my particular model but i don't really feel confident with any of them as my phone isn't supported by the software. Right now I can only see one option - take it back to the shop. However, I can't do this unless I figure out how to revert my flash count to 0.

Returning the phone would be my last resort. Someone help me figure out what exactly is wrong with my phone, please? Thanks :)

Custom ROMs often use different partitions than stock.

Therefore, one is definitely on the safer side by flashing any stock ROM between changing from one to another custom ROM.

[General Questions and Answers] rox656564:
Ok I have another problem. Recently I flashed ARHD 30.0 on my HTC One and it went smoothly. I then proceeded to flash ElementalX 6.0 meant for Sense 5.5. After that I rebooted and got stuck on the HTC logo. I rebooted to fastboot and tried to reflash ElementalX via recovery, but my phone wouldn't allow enter recovery mode. It just shows the CWM logo for a few seconds before booting up and getting stuck on the HTC logo again. I tried to flash both CWM classic and touch versions in fastboot mode but both do not work and still only the logo appears for a few seconds before rebootin. I can't even do factory reset as I cannot enter recovery mode. I searched around the ARHD and ElementalX threads but found no solution. I have a feeling that the ElementalX kernel is not supported on ARHD 30.0 so I was also wondering if I can flash another kernel via fastboot. Does anyone have any suggestions?

EDIT* Okay I'm such an idiot. I flashed the boot.img of another kernel (teaMseven) using fastboot and my phone booted up normally. But still I wonder why doesn't ElementalX work with ARHD 30.0? All the other versions of ElementalX worked but why not this one?

I mean after the flash check for super su. is it there or not... so reinstall the super su.apk only.. and then see it will work.

and make supersu the system app.

as if the supersu is already installed then it should prompt for replacing the data when u install the super su..also it will confirm that whether the supersu is installed during the flash or not.

Busybox will be installed already when u flash the super su.zip

It's unlikely to know the exact specs of your device so any info app will be fooled.

Your best bet would be to install a custom rom on your device.

https://xdaforums.com/t/resurrectionremix-marshmallow-5-7-4-r66-lenovo-vibe-k5-a6020.3465767/

Then, thanks to Android 6, you could merge sd card with internal, giving you more space.

Second, a lot of apps, like mail or Facebook have lite versions or can be accessed through browser. You could make Chrome shortcuts for each in order for fast access.

Third, there is an app called GLTools. This allows to change resolution or tinker with graphics of your device. You can also spoof your device. For all of these you will need root.
