[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Matvei27:
Do you have the stock kernel from the Chinese version firmware?

I was able to get google assistant working using the Korean version firmware, but it doesn't allow for exposed because the kernel has the security patches up to May 2017
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bidhata:
My ROM based on Chinese Firmware only. Please find kernel https://mega.nz/#!zMIlkABB!PaVLQynV9R4MnyBxgB8d05ymq7pf1HD-AAE-xdj4TsQ

Can you please share Korean Firmware Download URL ? May come-up with a ROM with that.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Matvei27:
I don't see a link for just the kernel. I can upload the Korean firmware to google drive.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bidhata:
Upload error . Updated that post with Mega URL. :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Matvei27:
Wait a few minutes, I will have the Korean G160N firmware on Google Drive.

Not sure if dual sim will work, flash at your own risk.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] YurichGu:
Are You sure that hardware are 100% compatible ?

I've heard that korean device has some additional hardware features (i.e. 5Hhz wifi)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Matvei27:
No, it may not be. That's why I say flash it and modify it at your own risk.

update: Tried flashing the Chinese version kernel, but it doesn't boot.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bidhata:
Same kernel running on my ROM. May be libs are different. Let's see. I will start working on the firmware you shared.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Matvei27:
I was able to install TWRP, Magisk 13 and Busybox on my stock Korean firmware.

All I really want now is xposed, but it has the May 2017 security patch installed so it doesn't work :(
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bidhata:
Can't even flash it on my device using Odin. Getting partition error. Are you sure that your device is G1600 ? If the same device we are using, can you please share how you loaded that firmware on your device ? I tried to flash AP only - but it failed.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Matvei27:
I am using G160N Korean version hardware.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bidhata:
Try the following kernel

https://mega.nz/#!CcIEwQiZ!PwTSeAoq25NJ5C5_EnjSyE3a-87fOJw2h3taMrJNR8g
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Matvei27:
That flashes fine, but still shows May 2017 patch level. Also for some reason magisk doesn't like it and it loses root.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bidhata:
Without the actual device in hand, can't help :( We may can selinux bypass using sepolicy injection but for that device will be required to check how it can be bypassed.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] YurichGu:
I am trying to install twrp from your post.

uploading finishes with no errors, saying that

<ID:0/010> SingleDownload.

<ID:0/010> recovery.img

<ID:0/010> RQT_CLOSE !!

<ID:0/010> RES OK !!

<ID:0/010> Removed!!

<ID:0/010> Remain Port .... 0

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 1 / failed 0)

then after reboot it says that:

operating system on your device has been modified .....

after reboot into recovery mode I do not see twrp.

Do You know what could went wrong ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bidhata:
Try attached twrp , and check again.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] YurichGu:
It's the same version as You uploaded in your previous post.

Actually, I used it.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bidhata:
Working for me and other G1600 users as well. Also your odin says recovery image download succeed. Please power off your mobile and press volume up and power together to be on recovery mode.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] YurichGu:
Volume Up + Power starts default recovery.

twrp doesn't appear....
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Matvei27:
Disable auto-restart in ODIN and pull battery from device to stop download mode.

Then, boot with volume + power up
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] YurichGu:
I managed to install twrp.

Reinstall standard rom then twrp.

Tried to upload bidhata's rom then.

it uploads flawlessly. reboots and shows error:

KERNEL IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING

Set Warranty Bit: kernel

and stalls there

it seems i missed something in upgrade or may be had a wrong file.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Matvei27:
On your chinese version devices, do you guys have trouble with OTA updates after installing TWRP and Magisk?

When I enable OEM unlock and install TWRP/magisk, it tells me my software is not official, so it can no longer take OTA updates.

Not that there is one, but when you manually select search for updates this is the error it gives.

---------- Post added at 03:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:29 PM ----------

update: I got xposed working on the Korean device.

Download the material xposed installer, but don't install from this. It will cause a boot loop.

Instead, flash 87.1 wanam version from TWRP. DO NOT USE THE MAGISK VERSION. IT WILL CAUSE BOOTLOOPS.

Reboot, you will fail safety net but will have xposed.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Matvei27:
I was able to install the samsung theme store app (an older version, latest crashes) but when you open it it says not compatible with this device.

Maybe it is possible to modify the APK to make it work? and then we can all re-skin touchwiz.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bidhata:
YurichGu, don't worry - it will take time for 1st reboot. Wait for few more minutes. You may can hard reboot by opening battery if you are waiting too long.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] YurichGu:
Does it mean that the presence of warnings:

"KERNEL IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING

Set Warranty Bit: kernel"

is normal ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bidhata:
Obviously :) We bypassed and modified stock kernel selinux security policy and repacked. Though there are ways - by which this msg can be omitted. But, I didn't found the reason to do that.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] YurichGu:
Thank You for the clarification.

It took me 5 minutes to start.

I stumbled upon another problem.

I installed Open GApps Pico via twrp.

After reboot I see warning: "Unfortunately, Pixel Launcher has stopped".

It's impossible to get rid of it. If I click at Ok, it appears again.

In the mean time I tried to start Google Play via WiFi.

It stalls in the stage of Signin, saying that connection is unreliable and try another one.

Moreover, mobile data doesn't start either...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bidhata:
After 1st installation, use the mobile for few minutes, open installed apps and all. Then go to About Software, and enable "Developer Options" and enable ADB. Then flash OpenGapps pico. That's exact process I installed my ROM, and from then it is still a daily driver with wanam xposed, Adaway. By the way - don't install supersu at all. It may break for supersu.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] YurichGu:
doesn't You install OpenGapps via twrp installed as recovery image ?

why do You enable "usb debugging" ?

I don't install supersu for your method, but I do for another one.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bidhata:
Yes YurickGu,

I just provided the steps I installed on my system and it worked out of the box for without any issues. Not sure why it is crashing on your mobile. Though if you can share your logcat - it may be helpful to findout the exact issue.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Soft-Man:
I was able to boot up on this firmware, but wifi does not work and there is no support for the second sim card
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Matvei27:
No second sim makes sense, as the G160N does not have the additional slot.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Soft-Man:
I meant that this firmware boot up on g1600 (china)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Matvei27:
Yes, but that firmware comes from a phone without dual sim slots
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Matvei27:
Have you been able to get USB OTG working on your device?

Anyone have the s voice related APKs (s voice, voice services, etc) from the Chinese G1600? It's not preinstalled on the G160N and I can't get the ones off of the internet to work.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] unflip16:
Hey guys,

I've been following this thread for a while. Big thank you to Bidhata.

I followed the install steps to the letter and similar to a prior post, I am getting the wifi not staying on issue. I have reinstalled several times. Any help?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Matvei27:
Can you tell me what version of S voice and related frameworks are on your G1600 (Chinese market)

I could not get them to work on my G160N even when installed as a system app, so I am wondering if the versions I am trying are just wrong.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] iksi:
Hi. I tried install again, but don't work. Now, I installed again stock firmware, flash gapps, and magisk, and all works ok, but... I do not have all languages! When I purchased phone I had firmware with all languages installed, Serbian and Croatian for example, but now only 21 languages, with out Serbian, my native language. I need very urgent solution for adding my language in firmware. I tried language enabler, but when select Serbian, only some parts of system are translated. For example, settings, messaging, phone apps, are not translated. Please help again.

If I press the button to take a picture. The flash goes off followed by a shutter sound almost immediately.

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Jarrod666:
Hello all,

I have a question. I own a LG G4 that has an IPS QHD screen.

I do a bit of virtual reality with (mainly movie viewing) but I want to switch to the ONEPLUS 5 for other reasons (sotckage 128GB, BT 5.0, 8GB ram and Amoled screen).

However, with its full HD screen Amoled, I was wondering if it will bring me satisfaction for the virtual reality and i know it loses in definition of the screen.

Do you think I will strongly feel it or not?

I am not an expert on virtual reality, I would have liked to test with such a definition as the One Plus 5 but I do not know anyone who has such a resolution.

Thank you in advance for any help you could bring me in choosing the purchase or not.

My LG G3 D855 was working fine... i left it for a while and when i came back to it it wouldn't turn on. I tried to take out the battery and put it back in ad it seemed to have worked but i got instantly a blue screen before the LG boot up animation or the LED color switching. I tried reinstalling stock firmware but i can't get it recognized by my PC. I have heard about baking the motherboard but i want to leave it as my last option since it may lead to permanent damage, my phone was a bit hot on touch when i grabbed it so i think some welds are damaged or something that has been caused due to heat.

I can get on recovery mode but neither wipe partition or factory reset solved this.

I believe that I have installed something that is not compatible with the device to generate the problem but I dont´know much about Android´s world.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TraderJack:
So I have a spare M8 that has a broken rear camera. My main M8 could use a new battery, and I'm pretty sure the spare one can too.

I've decided to take the plunge and crack open the spare M8 that just sits in a box and try my hand at replacing the battery and the camera module. If all goes well I think I'll replace the battery in my main M8 as well.

I was hoping someone might recommend a good seller/brand for replacement batteries. I'm concerned about OEM batteries because:

a) How am I to know it is genuine OEM?

b) If it is OEM, it has probably been sitting around for 3+ years

I also heard you can replace the M8 battery with the M9 and thought if it is safe to do so that it might be better to get an M9 battery as they are probably newer?

Has anyone done a replacement recently and recommend a particular one to go with that will get me back to original battery life?

thanks.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] LucasBabu:
Good afternoon, I wonder if there is any solution to my situation. Last Thursday I bought an Mi 5s from a vendor in OLX running normal and at the time an update appeared available I downloaded it and the device rebooted. After that, he asked for the password of an IM account linked to the device ... since I did not know that Xiaomi branded devices had this lock, later I tried to talk to the seller and he got involved ... so I did Wipe Data to see if This blocking left ... but did not leave, as the picture below. Now the seller no longer responds, he wanted to know if there would be any solution to this unfortunate situation. The screen shows: Sign in to your My Account Logo below: Enter Password Below: This device is associated with existing My Account ID (166xxxx398) And Activate Account Grateful
