[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] Tafofob:
Hi!

Im from europe -hungary. I bought my p9 in a little store, but it was asian, with the build number EVA-L09 C636 B134. So i didnt get any system update, because i was in a wrong region. Vendor: hw Country: spcseas.

So i changed my region with this thread https://xdaforums.com/mate-8/development/tool-srk-tool-huawei-t3369797 to EU. It went well, but now my build number is EVAL09 C900 B134.

I dont know the next step. Im almost sure, my phone was debranded originally. I just want to get the updates, in europe. Which rom i needed, to get the updates from now? How to install it?

I read tons of thread here, maybe too much, and now im confused, how to find the correct method.

Thx, your help!
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] darrr1:
Hi. The best rom to do debranding is L09c432b136. Install it by download mode. 1- unzip all files to folder "dload" . 2- change location to sdcard

3- switch off phone

4- switch on pushing in the same time 3 buttons ( vol- ; vol-+ ; Power)

5- after upgrade reboot to recovery and make full wipe and cache wipe.

That's all

What are you trying to debrand it to? You will have to change the oeminfo the match.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tgkprog:
Is there a way, once rooting is done, and i have customized my phone a bit (a change in one of the config files of linux), to change the user accounts and permissions? To create a new user account and change the user that is used by the phone to be a non-root, non-sudo, standard user. And all apps to use this or another standard user account.

And my app (that i installed after rooting) use another account. Only this account will have permission to read and write my app's directory.

Finally change the root user password, so that others cannot get into it unless they have that password.

So in effect protect my apps directory and allow the phone to work with a non sudo user from then on?

Next time phone re boots it uses another user say A (non sudo); without access to my apps directory. And when my app runs it uses user B (also non sudo) which has access to its dir. Others cannot read or list files in it or change permissions. So in effect my apps directory cannot be read by the user of the phone, in this new set up. I understand there will be ways around this.

But is this possible and how?

Rooted using https://xdaforums.com/android/general/root-samsung-galaxy-on5-t3435457 but i can do systemless root if that is the way.

Phone model : Samsung On 5 Pro SM-G5550FY. Thank you much.

Here we go again :D

The new Android O developer preview is out, and when I try to boot the TWRP image via fastboot, I get a blank screen after the google logo.

I am absolutely not surprised :D google is keeping the devs busy all the time by changing little bits and pieces just enough to stop our stuff from working...

At least ADB is working, so I could get the log:

__bionic_open_tzdata: couldn't find any tzdata when looking for GMT!

And this repeats. I see two things, if I'm right:

1. the ui fails to start because it doesn't find a DRM device

2. it fails to decrypt the data partition and stops there

I am not enough to solve these things, because I have no clue what is wrong. I'm calling all the devs (pointing to you [MENTION=912474]Dees_Troy[/MENTION] ;) ) to help us again and try to figure out what needs to be done so we can enjoy full freedom on our devices for which we spent a fortune for :D

I am willing to help, and try things to get this done, just let me know what I should try!

Thanks in advance!

I have ran into this issues since 7.1 lol but i can flash dev prev 2 and then without rebooting just fastboot boot twrp.img (RC1) and it works
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] foolie:
I have the same issue where booting twrp RC1 just goes into a blank screen. anyone found a fix?
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] gubacsek:
hmm... then my guess is that android does something with the encryption.

I flashed DP2, booted (automatic reboot after flash-all) and then tried to fastboot boot twrp.img and got the black screen.

I have already manually flashed twrp since, and can't boot it either. It gets stuck at the splash screen. just like it first did when it failed to decrypt the data patition (around january). Unfortunately this way there is no ADB so no way to see what happens...

I'll try to play around with it a bit, but I have no clue about decrypting the data partition. Don't even know where to start...
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] ne0ns4l4m4nder:
Ok well we learned with the first release that it was a bootloader issue so why not attempt to flash the bootloader from the first alpha, boot TWRP and see if SU can be installed? I know you can fastboot boot older bootloaders, I'm at work or I would give it a try
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] foolie:
you mean like flash a 7.1 bootloader? hmm i may give that a shot
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] gubacsek:
Okay. I really reached the end of the road, because I can't compile TWRP...

What i found is:

The decryption fails with these lines:

get_crypt_ftr_info crypto key location: 'footer'
Bad magic for real block device /dev/block/sda35
stack corruption detected

In TWRP source, this Bad magic error message comes from cryptfs.c:

if (crypt_ftr->magic != CRYPT_MNT_MAGIC) {
printf("Bad magic for real block device %s\n", fname);
goto errout;
}

CRYPT_MNT_MAGIC is a static value, defined in cryptfs.h:

#define CRYPT_MNT_MAGIC 0xD0B5B1C4

crypt_ftr->magic comes from reading some data from fname (which has the value: /dev/block/sda35):

if ( ([B]fd = open(fname, O_RDWR)[/B]) < 0) {
printf("Cannot open footer file %s for get\n", fname);
return -1;
}

/* Make sure it's 16 Kbytes in length */
fstat(fd, &statbuf);
if (S_ISREG(statbuf.st_mode) && (statbuf.st_size != 0x4000)) {
printf("footer file %s is not the expected size!\n", fname);
goto errout;
}

/* Seek to the start of the crypt footer */
if (lseek64(fd, starting_off, SEEK_SET) == -1) {
printf("Cannot seek to real block device footer\n");
goto errout;
}

if ( (cnt =[B]read(fd, crypt_ftr, sizeof(struct crypt_mnt_ftr)[/B])) != sizeof(struct crypt_mnt_ftr)) {
printf("Cannot read real block device footer\n");
goto errout;
}

So if we are lucky, we just have to modify the value of CRYPT_MNT_MAGIC. Some changes should be done, to print the value of crypt_ftr->magic, and then change that hardcoded CRYPT_MNT_MAGIC value to that. But as i said, I didn't manage to compile TWRP on my own (yet. since a few months :D)

I would appreciate the help of someone who did it already for the pixel.

OR someone who knows what the hell that magic number means.

OR someone who tells me that i'm completely wrong, and the problem is only with my device. Although I did clean flash (wiped the whole phone, with userdata and internal storage).
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] ne0ns4l4m4nder:
I'm not sure about flashing directly, I was more thinking about fastboot booting it then fastboot booting TWRP over that and then attempting to flash super SU, I'd that's even possible
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] ne0ns4l4m4nder:
also wondering what would happen if we flashed the 7.1.2 bootloader to the opposite partition aka ( system is slot A) then you would flash 7.1.2 bootloader to Slot B, and then possibly find away to Fastboot Boot TWRP to that slot but, be able to flash SU to System in Slot A. All just speculation of course im going on the work around that was found to gain root access on the first release of O

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Myrddin Wyllt:
Does the audio work through the phone's speakers?

How about through bluetooth?

If neither works, it is not your ear-piece jack.

If that's no fix, try reset, or power off/back on again. Sometimes audio jack registry notifications just get buggy.

Just installed the Android O Beta and a playing YouTube video doesn't go into Picture in Picture mode when I return to the homescreen.

Has anyone had this problem and was able to fix it, or has anyone just installed the O beta and has this working without a hitch?

Didn't work when I upgraded to the beta from 7.1.2, I have since tried a factory reset, and as far as the play store tells, there are no updates available to any app.

PIP not activated in OPP4, but the app Custom Navigation Bar has the "keycode" adding feature to enable it.

---------- Post added at 03:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:12 AM ----------

Get the app "Custom Navigation Bar" from Play store, enter 171 as the keycode when you create an extra navigation button. I chose the screenshot icon as my PIP button. Works great.

As I stated on this post, get the app "Custom Navigation Bar" by paphonb and enter 171 for the keycode when you create a new button. I used the screenshot icon for my button, looks sharp.

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] mcbeat257:
Everyone on this thread -- the PiP mode only works for certain apps that support it. Not all apps support it. Also, all the apps that do support it will request for your permission to use the mode.

If you go to Apps & notifications > Special app access, you will find a permission node for picture-in-picture.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] ste7enm:
Thanks, mcbeat—the default behaviour is that it's turned on for every compatible app though automatically. So, unfortunately, this doesn't help ?.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] droid_1989:
Yep not working here in the UK, what's the point in having PIP as a feature if it doesn't work properly - if it's bull**** to make me get YouTube Red - then it's not working, in fact if Google did that it would be a really **** move.

My system ui tuner has only options for do not disturb and status bar

The option for the icons should be inside pixel launcher settings

Enviado desde mi Pixel mediante Tapatalk
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] L30N30:
Yes, the option is on the launcher settings, the way I got it working was by enabling the UI tuner and this time it worked.

Also, I just read that the picture in picture will only work on YouTube Red!!!! And the icon shape can be enabled by having both UI tuner and developer options enabled.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] cocchiararo:
Ok, enabling developer made it appear.

I guess it's not enabled by default cause it sucks bad right now, many apps lack whats necessary for their icons to change form

PiP doesn't work for me (YouTube, Chrome) , what is the point of this anyway?

I think only YouTube Red works because of the fact that YouTube Red users can listen to any video with the screen turned off, making it make more sense for them to pull this as a marketing stunt.

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] resutatto:
I suggest using ARISE Sound Systems, V4A from their package works like a charm. Only difficulty may be installation configuration, but you can use older versions with aroma installer.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] vignesh_may28:
Thanks for the suggestion. Long back i used Arise sound system in S7edge. Downloaded Arise dueteronomy aroma but it doesnt work with custom rom (shows drivers installed but no sound difference).Tried in fulmics& it works. Any idea in which custom rom it works without any problem?
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] resutatto:
Have you tried latest Magnum Opus then? Takes a bit to manually config installation file though.

Honestly I'm using custom stock ROM on my G5, mainly for LG's camera app. On the other devices I used AOSP roms like LineageOS and ARISE was working fine, but I don't have any experience with that on AOSP LG G5 roms, should work too I guess.

First i tried latest magnus opum but i got flashing error with cr droid & so downloaded old version.Will try it later with other roms. Thanks for your reply.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] resutatto:
Just to be sure, have you configured installation file and placed it on your sdcard before flashing Magnum Opus?

One more thing that comes to mind; sometimes, when v4a wasn't working, common thing to do was deleting audio_effects.conf, not backing it up at and then reflashing v4a package.

Other than that I can't help you, sorry. Perhaps you should look in the rom thread if issue was mentioned or ask by yourself.
