WARNING FOR PEOPLE WITH EDL-UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER !!!!!

If you have an unoficially unlocked device which was unlocked by flashing bootloader over EDL (by flashing unofficial appsboot which allows "fastboot oem unlock-go") be VERY CAREFUL! This package also updates bootloader and by applying it, the bootloader will be locked again. Additionally this new bootloader version won't allow "fastboot oem edl" to enter EDL mode and the only way to enter it would probably be those two test points on the motherboard.

This locked bootloader then won't load your custom rom and won't allow you to do "fastboot boot" command to enter (TWRP) recovery.

I was stupid enough to run official Mi unlock tool and it unlocked this new bootloader, but wiped something (either /data or some secure hw storage storing encryption keys). In the end, my original custom ROM boots but I can't mount my encrypted data partition (the same using TWRP - it behaves like if I entered a wrong password). :'( I have almost everything backed up but a few things were lost by this..

Looking at the "META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script" in this .zip, removing appsboot lines would skip the update of the bootloader and prevent this problem. Lesson learned - I will always inspect these scripts before flashing any zip over a running system. :P
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] fxsheep:
Yes this is true.But we still have ways to enter EDL I.e. testpoint on the motherboard,etc.Also, any official firmware recovery will update aboot and lock the device down. So the warnings are already mentioned in all threads of unofficial bootloader versions.:)

How to check my phone firmware version? Do you have any idea?
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] captain_droid:
Look at my baseband version:
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] william.johhn7!:
The user-visible changes that can be noticed is the baseband version. See the last few figures that shows v046. That's it. Xiaomi doesn't change that in every weekly update but after a couple of updates. Mine is v051(latest)
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] captain_droid:
I flashed custom os when I was on miui global developer version.

Can I flash firmware of latest stable global version now?
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] william.johhn7!:
I think yes. It won't cause any issue i believe
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Santanuhbk30:
sorry for the basic question but what does this thing actually do? if anyone can tell me in layman's language
[Xiaomi Redmi 3s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Kuchayhilal:
You just saved my phone,

My phone's baseband was showing unknown also no IMEI, bluetooth & mac address.

After flashing latest stable firmware everything is resolved.

But i need to flash it everytime while restoring any working ROM's backup from TWRP, everytime i get "extracttar error 255" while restoring modem.

Anybody who can help me in fixing this permanently.

Thank you.

Not needed buddy. You need to flash once only. Just flash new ROM.

You need to be more specific. Is your phone rooted/non rooted? Are you using custom rom? What modem , kernel ?etc

You can install samsung phone info from playstore to get all these details and then someone might be able to help you.

Any particular preference here. Only difference I see is that Samsung's allows videos to play in preview form.

(btw neither will play videos in original form beyond :10sec...which I knew but it's the same if using YouTube or Google Links.

Sucks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] _MetalHead_:
Ive been using Textra for the past year or so. I did try Samsung's for a little bit when I first got the phone but ended up going back to Textra. The stock Android one is pretty terrible, IMO.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] psixichka:
What are the advantages of textra?

There are two different ones?

Which comes build in?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] mionky:
I really like Message+ from Verizon. It's in the Play store for free.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] _MetalHead_:
I like the interface, the customizability, and the fact that it doesn't break long messages up. There's probably a slew of others that I'm not aware of too.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] usmaak:
This. I've been using it non-stop since discovering it on my Note 4. It is far superior to Samsung's offering, IMO.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Craniotomy:
I used 8sms before but its not working properly with nougat now, I've been using mood messenger lately it's good. Try it out.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] PsiPhiDan:
Textra is amazing. +1
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] sudermatt:
Next sms....best popup in the business. IMHO.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] JamesRiot:
Between the two, I prefer Android. Admittedly, it's mostly because I can send more pictures per message. I send a ton of messages to my parents of my kids, etc. It also works better (imho) with Google Assistant.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] skinnytoo2:
Why do you say that? The only thing I see that separates VZW messages + is it works/syncs with your other VZW devices. I used it for a while with my tablets and watches. Also it was one of the very few apps that allowed scheduling texts. But also one of the few that didn't allow blocking texts. I don't use it anymore. Dumped it for Sammy messages app. I really enjoy the Bixby integration.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] ajwillingham:
Of the two in use Android. Samsung doesn't support Gboard gifs and stickers.

until i found TEXTRA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] psixichka:
Is the stock app tje only one able to schedule a text?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] marky310:
Textra does this as well

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Dodge DeBoulet:
I think it also does things like suggest emojis for predictive text, if you want to be one of the kewl kids. I thought it was sort of interesting at first, but at my age the kids would just roll their eyes
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] usmaak:
I say this because I like it better than Samsung's offering. I don't care about blocking texts, as I don't find myself in the need for something that does that. I've also found that it works a lot more quickly on my Note 4. I always had a bit of lag with the Samsung messenger.

And I do love the integration with other devices. I have it installed on all of my computers, tablets, etc. It works well on any device.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Tidbits:
Personally i use Samsung. I use digits, and with the built in integration between dialer, digits, rcs, and their app moving away and using something else breaks how well it works for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] psixichka:
So Textra users...

when you press the + only emojis are visible unless in horizontal mode:( Anyone know of any fix for that?

cause otherwise i like the app
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] _MetalHead_:
Take a screenshot. Everything works fine for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] psixichka:
here you go

saw on reddit others have had this issue too
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] _MetalHead_:
That's weird. Here's mine -
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] English_Gentleman:
I used to use Google's version of Messenger until I got my N8. It had a clean and simple interface. Haven't loaded it on my phone yet as I'm gonna play around with some alternatives. Though if I want to send images or videos I usually use WhatsApp as all my friends and family have it. I don't know about the USA but here in the UK text messages and phone calls are usually unlimited and included in most plans but sending multimedia messages usually cost money and aren't included in most plans.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] ThaiM:
I use stock Samsung strictly because of their scheduled message option.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] _MetalHead_:
What the hell, now all of a sudden I lost those options. Now it's just like yours.

Edit: aaaaand they're back. So weird.

You can schedule texts with Textra as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] jeux_1:
I like the optional sending delay.

You send a text and you have these option to cancel the message.

Works great on my dual sim note 8
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] ThaiM:
I gave up on Textra years ago when they got rid of popup notifications and quick reply. Maybe they've brought it back since?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] marctronixx:
popup and quick replay are on textra as far as i know.

read up on the update in the store.

tmobile variant. first sammy device. did not use samsung switch nor did i restore from some old backup.

there is a + on the left side of the app down where you type.

i press that in portrait and landscape, and the option bar (or whatever its called) always shows up. always.

and yes gifs and live messages work too! :cowboy:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] dwertz:
I am surprised no YAATA users. I used Textra a while back and there was something I didn't like about it. I think I couldn't pin specific contacts to the top and I think also that I could not use select one color for all contacts.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] WastedJoker:
I have been enjoying most of the stick apps on the Note 8 and Messages is no different. Feels a bit slow to open but otherwise ok.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] PsiPhiDan:
Live messages work now? They aren't before. You mean on Textra, correct?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hoffmanns:
Hello All,

I have strange problem with ADB debugging on my Smartwatch ASUS ZenWatch 3.

I´m on AW2.0 and I tryed custom AW2.0 kernel from here:

https://xdaforums.com/zenwatch-3/development/rom-asus-zenwatch-3-swift-t3537340

and all working fine except ADB debuging and ADB commands.

If I enable ADB debuging in developer option and plug my watch to the computer I not see any confirmation dialog about allow ADB. And I see only unauthorized device after ´adb devices´.

With stock kernel all worked fine.

For now I´m on stock recovery and I can´t use ADB commands in recovery. It´s totally..........

I need working ADB commands and main problem is missing confirmation dialog... not pop up....

I tryed everything.... Enable/disable ADB, rewoke ADB, restart computer and watch, new ADB drivers, start and kill ADB server, factory reset, delete RSA key... Nothing works for me :(

I tryed debugging over wifi and Bluetooth and same problem... Allow ADB dialog not pop up

And my watch is unauthorized...

I tryed also another computer and same situation...

Maybe some problem in kernel? Because ADB is enabled by default... I don't know...

Is there any other way to get working ADB commands?

Maybe some bypass?

Please could you help me? Thank you very much
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] SharkEzz:
Hello !

I am creating my own (first) kernel for the Oneplus 3T and I would like to integrate a slight overclock in the CPU.

Only after searching the Internet for information on what to modify to add frequencies, I found nothing ... The only information I found is for a 32 bits SOC kernel while that of the Oneplus 3t is in 64 bits and the files to be modified are not there (acpuclock, etc ...).

So I turn to you: how to add overclock to a arm64 kernel ?

Thank you in advance for your answers !
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] MrMeeseeks:
Best I can tell you is to look at the source code of the 3T kernels that have over clocking. Look through the commits and you should find where they changed the source to over clock. From there you can study what they did or just cherry-pick it.

Edit: You could also look at other devices that have the Snapdragon 821(msm8996-pro) chipset.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IcicleThief69:
My problem with root explorer is I can't paste any thing to my sd card inside of root explorer. I have changed permissions and changed the RW to RO and still nothing. Also the RW and RO only show up at the beginning.

When I go into the system under dev the option to change RW to RO is not there. it's only at the beginning no where else not even the sd card.

I do have root it's been verified, and I can access the tablet with ADB also, I can pull and push files but not the file I want. The file I want is under the dev file here

dev/block/param but can't pull it, I get access denied.

Can someone tell me why I can't pull it or even copy paste this file root explorer please?

I've searched and searched and I'm so tired of re-direct to re-directs and forums after forums. I like this one so I'm diving in. I do not know what happened but now I can't sync to my Laptop. I'm running AS 4.5 and the latest ROM from Cingular(ATT)/HTC. When I connect my 8125, AS shows it's connected and goes through the motions of sync'in but hangs until I disconnect without sync. The status on AS on my 8125 says support code is 0x80070002. I've done deleted partnerships on both devices too many times and run the outlook repair and still get the same error. Pleez Help.:confused:

2/11/08: Ok, so many people have read and offer no solutions, that's ok. I figure it's 'gonna be a while for MS to fix or the next update / hotfix. In the meanwhile, if you're frustrated and willin' to dish out some bucks, there's an alternative to stand-alone AS. I went ahead and tried Nokia's Intellisync and it worked the very first time. It even gave me the ablity to correct discrepancies on the fly. The price tag is a little steep but then again, how many times have we forked out more for suds and stuff? I'll still wait for an answer if someone finds a fix 4 me. Dr. Diode.

[Sony Xperia XA1 Ultra Questions & Answers] bromanbro:
It's forcibly locked. Just curious if that's likely to be changed anytime soon.
[Sony Xperia XA1 Ultra Questions & Answers] mikeandjaimie:
I know they can.. When HTC opened their devices to unlocking the bootloader they did it with a flashable update.. And we already know the rest of them are unlockable, so I don't think it would be that hard.. However whether it was an oversight or intended, I don't know. I've tried posting on there official forums and tweeted them, but seen no response to either. Hopefully someone else has better luck getting a reply. I'd really like to see it since they have aosp code for their other devices.
[Sony Xperia XA1 Ultra Questions & Answers] mikeandjaimie:
I was thinking about this and not sure if it would work.. I'm no developer by far.. But what if we got the official images for the g3223 from Sony site and flashed those.. Would the bootloader still be locked? I know the images contain everything (bootloader, radio, and system) so if we we got the US g3223 images and flashed them,wouls it work? Or even a non-freedom image (original direct from Sony Canada)?
[Sony Xperia XA1 Ultra Questions & Answers] bromanbro:
i doubt a non-freedom image would work. that would be scandalous if it did work tho. freedom hasn't deployed anything since the June updates..................................................

Has anyone used the htc u 11, in particular the 6gb ram version? I have tried to have a look at reviews online but there is few.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] parusia:
I got both of them. My HTC U11 is the international version not the US version. Both phones are excellent phones, the U11 is faster some times but not by that much, all depends on your preferences, I like both.

I have both too. It's a no brainer as far as I'm concerned. Note 8 all the way. The HTC UX is its Achilles heel. It is sooo outdated. Le launcher the settings menu. It just feels so retro.

s:

- if you face too much battery comsuption, try greenify

- colors mismatch in camera
[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
I flashed that ROM already don't even waste your time nothing works

I tested that rom. Don't waste your time, sim cards don't work and the camera bugs are still there.

The rom zip is also password protected so I can't take it apart and fix it. I don't know why these Chinese devs insist on password protecting an Android rom and never providing a file_contexts file to make it possible to extract and rebuild. They port roms and then make it impossible for anyone else to try and fix them. They can fix this one themselves, I want no part of it.

[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] ajaikumarnadar:
why does the g4 plus is using a older kernel ? any idea guys

even many custom rom developersare not a latest versionof kernel like min of 3.18 version kernel.

i have seen phones like redmi 3s phones are using more latest kernels than that of us.. i.e

redmi 3s --> 3.18 kernel

g4 plus --> 3.10 kernel.

Even in the recently released lineage os 15 nightly they have used a recent kernel version such as 4.4 instead they are using 3.10

so my question is why they are using a older kernel version ?

Thanks for reading :D
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] zeomal:
They plan to, if I'm not mistaken, slowly upgrade, taking into consideration performance of the kernel as they move up.
