[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] everydaychap:
Hi Guys,

I generally make do with all of the older threads (and google), but for this I just

had to make an account and ask if there is some saving possible.

I reinstalled (Flashed) the stock rom for the J5 (with ODIN), rooted the phone using j5nlte Auto Root.

flashed TWRP and then MOAB & SuperSu. This is where something seemed to go wrong

as TWRP asked me again if I wanted to install SuperSu when exiting. Stupidly I swiped

instead of choosing no. This is where my phone ended up in a bootloop to TWRP.

Now my first reaction was, okay no biggie i'll just wipe the phone and start over again. All of a sudden

Odin can't recognize the phone when I reboot into bootloader, because it doesn't go into the normal

Samsung DOWNLOAD MODE anymore, I get the following if I choose to reboot into bootloader

ODIN MODE

Product name: SM-J500FN

Current Binary: Custom

System Status: Custom

FRP Lock: Off

Knox warranty void: 0x1 (4)

RP SWREV: S1, T1, H1 R1, A1, P1

Secure Download: Enable

the pc doesn't recognize it in this state.

In TWRP it adb does recognize it. It seems to recognize adb commands.

tried the following

adb shell

killall -19 recovery

make_ext4fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p8

reboot

but it gives me an error message: failed to allocate 910 blocks, out of space?

anymore options?

I got it to work.

did the adb push and afterwards was able to install version 3 of TWRP. Then was able

to somehow reformat the internal drive, because at first it showed 0kb. Then installed

stock rom again and it's working now.

Hello, because development for G4 has increased considerably ,i want to know who it's 'best' rom for G4 , in your opinion . I made a pool above to vote . A good day.
[G4 General] SavageRobot:
IMO I really like Imperium, best overall ROM I just keep going back to. However, battery life sucks on all stock ROMs I have tried. I was on various CM/AOSP ROMs for last few months as the battery life improved almost 4x more time between charges!! The best I found there with absolutely no problems, was CandySix. The others had a few small bugs here and there, DU/RR. I ended up going back to Imperium yesterday because I miss the camera and so far, touch wood, the battery is a lot better, took it off charge last night about 8pm and still at 50% now (16:20), almost CM quality!
[G4 General] Levent2101:
I have been using cyanogenmod for 5 years on my previous phones, with this phone though I REALLY like the camera on this phone and thats the only reason why I am on the stock rooted and debloated rom, I cant explain how much I like AOSP look and feel on my phones (I am currently on the verge of getting a HTC 10)

Camera quality is terrible on any rom that is not based on stock rom.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] James Bartlett:
Howdy XDA peoples.

I'm hoping someone can help me. I had a Nexus 6, unrooted (atlhough the bootloader was unlocked when I purchased it). I had been recieving the official beta Android updates, but am not sure what version I got up to. Recently, while listening to some music on my drive home, the phone stopped. When I arrived home, I saw that it had put itself into Fastboot Mode, although it all looked slightly different (more 8-bit I guess). If I try and boot Android normally, whether from a powered off state, or from Fastboot etc, it fails, every time, and just boots into this 8 bit fastboot. (Although if I boot into Fastboot from a powered off state, it shows the usual Fastboot you would expect on the nexus 6. The 8 bit style one has the exact same functionality and control, just looks different). I have tried hooking it up to the Nexus Toolkit, which seems to behave normally and says its doing whatever I ask it to do, but still, nothing. I simply cannot boot into Android. In the Fastboot menu, Under bootloader logs, it displays the following message: "failed to validate boot image: ret=-1. Fastboot Reason: Fall-through from normal boot mode." The same happens if I try to boot into recovery.

If someone could nudge me in the right direction (or perhaps direct me to a forum where this issue has been dealt with, I have searched...), I would be immensely grateful.

Just like what had happened to you, mine bootlooped today, was listening to some music, the phone just restarted itself and went into an endless bootloop, any help or fix for that ?

Do You try to manually flash a Factory Image? Maybe not one from the N Preview? Otherwise to flash a Custom Recovery and try to flash a random Custom ROM?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nexitus-six:
Unfortunately, I currently get the very same message for my Nexus 6 device.

It had also began 'all of a sudden', ie. without any attempts to root or whatever.

Given this applies to recovery mode as well, I fear adb sideload method with OTA is not possible.

Did you somehow manage to rescue your device?

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikber18:
Hi,

I'm fond of my non-root software, just because there is a number of apps that I use on regular basis that do not allow root.

Is it going to be at all possible to build a "custom rom" that will be able to run those applications that typically just FAIL when root is detected, by simply not forcing root on the device?

Look forward to hearing from you.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] advancednoob:
Well, it depends on a couple things:

First, there are different ways that apps can detect root. Some apps simply try to gain access to root. But more advanced apps, a notable one being Android Pay, also check if the firmware running on the device has passed Google's CTS tests, which only original 100% stock firmware can pass.

So is your device 100% stock non-modified, or is it a custom ROM with no root access? This will help determine if the apps you use are of the more simple kind, or of the advanced kind.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikber18:
At this present moment I'm running the Sony Concept software and realistically I would love to continue to be running the latest OS, but unless something like Sony Concept continue to exist the only way to run 7.0 in the future will be a custom Rom. Almost all custom Roms require Root, is there hope that one gets developed that will run similarly to the Concept Software project, I.e. No need for root or nada and thereby allowing me to use my apps (banking etc) that do a scan against root + custom software
[Nexus 6P General] benleonheart:
Pre requisites:

Unlocked bootloader

adb tools installed, I used These

The dirty:

Download the latest TWRP(3.0.2-1) Here

Download the latest SuperSU Beta Here I used 2.76-2 (for systemless root)

Put your phone in Bootloader mode (VolDown+Power)

Connect phone to your PC

Via ADB, and type fastboot flash recovery <path>/twrp-3.0.2-1-angler.img

​

- If you do not want to flash it permanently, just "fastboot boot <path>/twrp-3.0.2.1-angler.img".

​

- Also, if you flashed it, and you want to go back to stock recovery, you'll have to wait *for now* until the NRD90M factory image is uploaded to https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images, then it can just be extracted and fastboot flash'd...

Select boot recovery from the little menu

It will ask for your pass/pin, enter to access. The new TWRP allows you to.

Once inside, proceed to install the SuperSU zip you downloaded in step 2.

Thanks!
[Nexus 6P General] Pyrres:
Can you decrypt phone using this method? I have crypted 7.0 phone with root but lost TWRP when update crypted all the data. Would be quite nice to have it decrypted without wiping data.
[Nexus 6P General] CyberZeus1977:
You can't. You need a kernel that doesn't enforce encryption and you need to format userdata.

Nexus 6P with Chroma rocks!
[Nexus 6P General] Pyrres:
I have ElementalX as my kernel. But what about the stuff I keep reading about that newest TWRP could decrypt data? Does it work or can it be used in this instance?
[Nexus 6P General] CyberZeus1977:
Newest TWRP decrypts data on the fly but doesn't decrypt permanently. Do you get the difference?

Nexus 6P with Chroma rocks!
[Nexus 6P General] Pyrres:
Does this mean it can be used with crypted phone as it can decrypt the data it needs or am I missing how it works.
[Nexus 6P General] CyberZeus1977:
I can't make myself clear... TWRP decrypts data in memory leaving your data crypted. Got it?

Nexus 6P with Chroma rocks!
[Nexus 6P General] Pyrres:
Yes and no :D. Basic question, does it work when the phone is crypted or not? Can I have a phone that is crypted and still use TWRP?
[Nexus 6P General] CyberZeus1977:
Yes. But that phone will remain crypted

Nexus 6P with Chroma rocks!
[Nexus 6P General] Pyrres:
Thanks, but I will still lose all my data when installing or can I now keep all my data and just install TWRP as I have already once installed it or does it matter in my case?
[Nexus 6P General] CyberZeus1977:
Installing TWRP doesn't wipe data

Nexus 6P with Chroma rocks!
[Nexus 6P General] benleonheart:
You won't lose your data, I didn't lose mine.

TWRP comes and decrypts on the fly, because your password/pin matches the one you set up on the OS; after allowing it to decrypt, you can flash whatever you want.

The decryption is not permanent, meaning your phone will still be crypted, as in; no one will decrypt your data unless you give them the access.
[Nexus 6P General] McQueefus:
There is no need to flash boot IMG?
[Nexus 6P General] benleonheart:
I didn't flash a modified boot image previously, when I flashed SuperSU, it took care of patching that for me.
[Nexus 6P General] McQueefus:
Worked like a charm, I was even able to edit the build.prop and enable tethering. You Sir, are awesome!
[Nexus 6P General] Dhanabalan:
I'm n Android N with locked bootloader. I have to unlock the bootloader,then install TWRP then format user data to decrypt and flash su via TWRP? Is that order correct? Or any suggestions please?
[Nexus 6P General] kyle4269:
The steps are right on the first page, first post.
[Nexus 6P General] andrewnelson23:
How?
[Nexus 6P General] benleonheart:
1. You have to unlock the bootloader, which wipes your data.

2. You have to choose wether you want to be encrypted or not, if you do not want an encrypted device you can follow the other guide in the topics list.

3. If you do choose to go encryped, boot once, setup your pass/pin

4. Reboot back to bootloader, install TWRP

5. Boot to Recovery (twrp), input your pass/pin setup on step 3

6. flash SU via TWRP.
[Nexus 6P General] benleonheart:
Sweet, man!
[Nexus 6P General] sapphirecoupe:
So will any device that's already encrypted. That's clearly not the point of the question....

But to answer the question clearly, the twrp update is compatible with N encrypted devices.
[Nexus 6P General] gunnyman:
Nothing to see here
[Nexus 6P General] burn1976:
to decrypt the phone is only necessary to format the "userdata" partition, or is it more complicated than this?
[Nexus 6P General] polarbbr:
Can you share with us on how you edited the build.prop in detail please? I tried it on Nougat, but my phone failed to reboot. I think something was wrong with it. Thanks.
[Nexus 6P General] McQueefus:
Download Es file explorer and turn on root explorer. You then need to mount it so that it is read/write. Go into system/build.prop and at the very end add this line-

net.tethering.noprovisioning=true

Save it and connect to your computer and in adb give this command all in 1 sentence-

adb shell settings put global tether_dun_required 0

Reboot phone and Profit!
[Nexus 6P General] DJBhardwaj:
Formatting the userdata decrypts the partition. But if the kernel (boot.img) has forced-encryption, then it will simply encrypt again on boot. So to avoid this we make sure to flash the corresponding modified boot image, that will ensure that your device doesn't encrypt itself on boot.

As for modified boot image, you can visit the following thread: [UPDATED 8-1-16][Stock modified boot.img for regular root/Android N decrypted boot

The above thread has all the current boot images for several build numbers. As for the final N release, you shall see the modified boot as soon as Google releases the factory image.
[Nexus 6P General] polarbbr:
You are so great! It worked perfectly on my device....
[Nexus 6P General] McQueefus:
Glad you got it to work!
[Nexus 6P General] yume-smart:
I can't boot the recovery... the terminal said "acces denied" :(

I want to boot the TWRP make a backup and root the phone ...

I don't want to flash TWRP for now

EDIT: I am so stupid :( the path was wrong....

YOU DON'T SEE ANITHING... :cool:
[Nexus 6P General] benleonheart:
Haha!! great!
[Nexus 6P General] ac21365:
Howdy all! This worked like a charm on my 5x. Rooted and encrypted on 7.1.1.

I needed to wipe and root so I waited for 7.1 images to come out. I started with a fresh 7.1 stock flash with locked bootloader, then started with step 1.

- Oddly, TWRP never asked me for my pin in step 5. Double checked in my system info and it still says encrypted.

But, it works, not complaining! Thanks!
[Nexus 6P General] benleonheart:
Well would you look at that! sweet! glad it worked!
