That's really strange. I never had problem flashing the stock ROM from Odin on SM-T800.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morgiee:
Seriously mate, don't know what to do, nothing seems to work. No firmware seems genuine. How can I obtain an original firmware without signing up to sites or pay for a premium server to get the file?

Thanks

Currently I wiped the entire system via TWRP except the micro sd that has the firmware zip file on.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morgiee:
This is a recent log from twrp when trying to install a "stock" firmware. Hopefully someone can figure out what's going wrong
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morgiee:
Problem fixed. Just kept trying different firmware roms online and found an original 4.4.2 that worked. just updating to 6.0.1 through Samsung updates now. And keeping the downloaded file safe and going to do a android backup dump from twrp once its done.

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morgiee:
how to mark this thread as resolved?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morgiee:
New issue. All I want to do now is just root the stock firmware to allow me to use certain apps. However every time I try a root either auto cf root, supersu, kingroot. All that happens after flashing the root is the Samsung logo boot loops saying recovery cant enforce in red and blue text.

Is knox preventing it because yet again my tablet does the opposite of what the instructions say.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeokim:
Try reinstalling the stock firmware, and then install TWRP and get the zip package for SuperSU and install the zip package thru TWRP.
[Huawei Watch] pesaroso:
A Reddit-user created a PSA thread in the /R/Androidwear subreddit, stating that disabling the OK Google detection would remove all stutter and lags on the Huawei Watch 2.

After trying it out (and reading replies in the thread on Reddit) I can confirm that this trick drastically reduced the laggy scrolling and unlocking on Huawei Watch 1 as well! Try it out :)

Go to Settings - Personal Settings and disable the OK Google detection. No need to reboot.

PS: This won't disable/remove the function, you can still hold down the button to activate Google search as normal, this trick just disables the voice action "OK Google".

I didn't expect such a big difference but result is awesomeee!!!

Thank you
[Huawei Watch] KHANrad_SIN:
Was about to post this but found this thread. It actually works. My watch was lagging really bad when trying to pull down the quick settings or pulling up the notifications and I thought it was nearing the end for this watch since we're not getting updates anymore. Thankfully I went and turned off the "OK google" detection and noticed immediately that the lag was completely gone. I also noticed my battery lasted quite a bit longer as well. I hope more people see this thread so they are aware.

Hi, few days ago I noticed that my display tends to light blue and all colors are really cold. I can see that effect seeing the smartphone from frontal and also inclining the smartphone.

What can I do?

Thank you!

That is awesome!! Congrats! I am going to flash today once I get the courage to do so because of recovery issues we have at the moment. I'll have to try flash fire. Or if you know a fastboot way or adb I can do?
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] tbalden:
Firstly getting a recovery partition for the exact base you have, don't know if it's already listed somewhere. So you can get back to stock recovery for ota.

Then for flashing

Putting in an sdcard, careful to not mounting data, and backup to external sdcard and also flash from there.

[MENTION=2605798]nkk71[/MENTION] I think that already possible and doesn't hurt phone system. Right?:angel:
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] nkk71:
If you mean the *no longer decryptable data partition in booted ROM*, then it still eludes me, but seems to get triggered any time twrp tries to decrypt it (doesn't matter whether successful or failed).

Though TWRP is able to decrypt it successfully (even when the ROM no longer *wants*), so the data is recoverable, but will cause a headache since data/media isn't backed up.

TWRP itself isn't triggering verity, I'm assuming when vold_decrypt is running for some reason, a *key upgrade* is triggered leading the ROM to no longer be able to (or rather allow) userdata to be decrypted.

I've never used FlashFire to be able to give any opinion about it.

If using TWRP, using external sdcard as you mentioned is a good idea, but in addition data decryption should not even be attempted, so I

think

the following would be safe:

1- Set a PIN on boot in the ROM

2- Reboot and confirm all is OK

3- Flash TWRP

4- When entering TWRP you will be prompted for a password, CANCEL THAT PROMPT

If you even attempt any decrypt the ROM will likely no longer decrypt data

5- Once you've cancelled the decrypt prompt, you can go ahead and safely backup and/or flash from external sdcard

PS: and as you mentioned, when prompted whether to allow system modifications choose NO. Keep system mounted read only.
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] tbalden:
Thanks [MENTION=2605798]nkk71[/MENTION]

uhm, must be my general messing up basic terms time to time, I meant to mention the data partition , but my idea was this what you described. Good that in the end system partition came up. Indeed it is essential to keep it intact for ota, or backup intact system image to external card
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Cryptycat7:
Good to see you here [MENTION=3088420]tbalden[/MENTION]. Would you spoiler what you have in the Pipeline for the beautiful U11+?
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] tbalden:
All cleanslate features from the u11 which is possible.

Check my signature for what's there on the u11.

I'll need more feedback yet on the first release, but hopefully the recent shipping happening in UK will boost the scene around here
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Cryptycat7:
Thanks for the lightning fast reply. I am from Germany and pre-ordered my U11+ directly from HTC, it arrived today.
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] tbalden:
Cool ?

I wish I'd meet the device in real life someday. I hate to develop blindly but I hope the similarities will help.

But it's too much for the budget at the moment, with two u11s this year. :laugh:

Anyway it's good that [MENTION=2605798]nkk71[/MENTION] helped describing a way to stay safe with kernel flashing. I hope it's gonna work out without sacrificing safe upgrade ota possibility.

Hi!

Im just wondering if you could create your kernel with no forced encryption?

I think that would be great because of that unofficial twrp we still have to live with..

Skickat från min HTC U11 plus via Tapatalk
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Cryptycat7:
Nice update. Great feature and the updated WireGuard is also much appreciated. WireGuard quickly became a key element of my smartphone privacy concept. Works great in tandem with Expressvpn and tunnelbear. May we have a look over the shoulder of the magician? Would love to know what the development crystal ball says about feature plans for this kernel, which features do you plan to add? Huge fan of your work, hope you'll support the U11+ as long as HTC supports it. [MENTION=3088420]tbalden[/MENTION]
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] tbalden:
Working on auto activated profiles, which was mentioned a few weeks back. Already making progress with the basics. Settings page looks bad yet, but it works fine to activate upon connecting a Wi-Fi ap. :)

Time based activation is another thing to check.

In the kernel itself at the moment not much on the to do list.
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Cryptycat7:
WoW
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] tbalden:
I'll check upon this, and what could be done. Sounds reasonable! Thx for the suggestion. Not owning the device means I have less hands on pains, to think about such a trivial issue like that. :good:
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] tbalden:
i have some problems yet, with the wifi listener stopping, but I'll resolve that, then fix up the UI a bit. Probably then I'll bump the play store with that, wifi detection in itself can be rather convenient.

Then I'll look at how to trigger time based profile change, in a battery friendly android manner
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Cryptycat7:
The network/wifi detection is probably what would be used the most. Wi-Fi off could also trigger a profile. Google added that smart lock feature a while back, that keeps the phone unlocked, while carrying it around. Maybe there is some useful code in their open source documentation? I think the same method would be perfect to trigger the outdoor mode.

Leads me to another idea, that just came to my mind. Would be great if the profiles could also change the ringer volume. At home for example I want to noticd all my notifications the moment they arrive, but it's laying on my desk next to me all the time, so a loud notification isn't needed, just interrupts my work flow. At the meeting, vibration only would be the preferred option for most people, I guess, maybe with stronger vibrations and a focus on notification LED? The profile feature is already great, but with your skills, the best is yet to come. An expression, that describes your work very well. Everytime I think "okay now the kernel is complete, can't be improved any further", you amaze me with fantastic new ideas, which are just as well implemented as thought out. Kudos!
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Davil_79:
I, and many others would be very happy if you try to fix that!

[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] tbalden:
Rolling out new premium app version with Wi-Fi profile triggering.

Setup should be not too complicated. Just connect your Wi-Fi to add it to a profile activation, and enable Wi-Fi activation for the profile. More to come in later releases.
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] tbalden:
Thanks for the support, highly appreciated!:good::highfive:
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] tbalden:
i was trying to dig up some info on this, how it's being patched into kernel or ramdisk or with magisk.

What so far I have seen is pointing towards some ramdisk or magisk trickery, to avoid dm-verity check... I'm somewhat unsure yet. [MENTION=398245]LeeDroid[/MENTION], do you have any pointers about this one? How FORCEENCRYPTION can be disabled, how to make things work on unencrypted data partition?

Thanks
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] LeeDroid:
You need to remove the forceencrypt flag and path from fstab.

You will find 2 fstab files in Oreo, one in ramdisk and one in vendor/etc.

There is a sed script in my ROM zip under /extras/build buddy, check it out ;)
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] tbalden:
Thanks, so this is only small part related to kernel and also needs system partition change.

Now I get why magisk is involved, a systemless module I guess.
[MENTION=3185020]Davil_79[/MENTION] have you checked whether magisk can do this?
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Cryptycat7:
New feature works just as af it has proven to be stable for years. You amazed me ones again.
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] tbalden:
Good, but since rolling out, I experienced another instance where the background listener service stops, and Wi-Fi won't trigger. Gonna check tomorrow, it's a bit late here 1am :laugh::cool:
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Cryptycat7:
Seems like we are sharing the same time zone. Disabled Wi-Fi like ten times in airplane mode and it always triggered my home profile instantly.
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] tbalden:
It's happening after a good while only, while app is in background.

But will test it too further.
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] LeeDroid:
I don't believe magisk is removing the forceencrypt flag in vendor, only ramdisk, removing from vendor would require a module, you also need to format data before booting and after removing the flag so it's probably not working.

The next point of concern that I haven't looked into yet is trebble, the vendor partition is separate on trebble devices so the 2nd fstab may exist in there.

I'm going to grab a U11+ RUU tomorrow and look at whipping a ROM up
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] tbalden:
if it's possible to hack it into non encrypted mode, then that could help a lot with twrp stuff, mounting data unencrypted. Well, should be tons of fun to explore the pitfalls of Treble :D:laugh::good:
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] tbalden:
[MENTION=8802903]Cryptycat7[/MENTION] it should be fine with the new rollout, auto profile changes are now working as intended :) (i hope so :D)
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Cryptycat7:
If you keep doing what you are doing, I'll start to call you king kernel :D:good:

Just updated. Will put the phone into airplane mode, activate the night profile and report back tomorrow morning. Fantastic work.
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] tbalden:
Meh, still not perfect. Gotta check what else can be done to prevent the background service from being swept out by Android low memory handler
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Cryptycat7:
Noticed the same. Didn't get triggered by my home Wi-Fi network for me this morning.
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] tbalden:
I'm consulting with the best out there, Lee on the subject matter. :) Seems like it was indeed a good idea to keep the Companion app very small, so that it's not being swept from memory. [MENTION=1162986]Captain_Throwback[/MENTION] had some ideas to move them together, but I hate to have persistent notification on the bar to fix this issue the usual way... still some other ideas to try to fix this, but I guess that's the last resort, that's used by all persisten background apps.
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Cryptycat7:
Also hate persistent notification, I call them the "ads" of Android from time to time ;)

I know they are required to keep the service running in the background, but there must be a more elegant way of achieving that goal, or maybe there isn't? Devcheck, Orbot and ExpressVPN are probably not apps that 99 percent of the users run 24/7, so maybe Google didn't put much effort into this?

Can only try to imagine, where you are going to push this project, it was superb from the start, but gets better every week. New fingerprint modes are really helpful. Am holding the phone a bit weird right now, since I am holding a cigarette in the right hand. Accidentally touched the fingerprint twice, but fingerprint mode 4 allows me to enjoy the convenience of tapping to home, without throwing me out of my message edit window.
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] tbalden:
Could you please test switch off battery optimization for the app and see.

I'm testing also, seems more consistently remaining active
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Cryptycat7:
Oh, I thought I already disabled that. Now it's turned off. Will test and report back in the evening.
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] tbalden:
Since this seems to work wonders, I'll add a plus redirection when this first activated in app. That's keeping the persistent bar away which is cool
[HTC U11+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Cryptycat7:
Perfect. Will arrive at home in around an hour. Can check then.

Edit: maybe some less restrictive RAM management tweaks would be the most convenient way to keep the service in the background. This phone has 6 Gigabyte of RAM, I am a heavy multitasker and the phone is hovering around 4,1 Gigabyte RAM usage max. If it would allow to use up to 5 gigs before kicking apps from memory, that would be a nice improvement. I appreciate your close to stock approach and totally agree on going for it, but this isn't to far from stock from my perspective. Would love to hear your opinion about this idea.

Edit 2: Profile switching worked like a charm with androids battery optimization disabled.
