[MeMO Pad 7 General] Aquaster:
Hello guys,

I need your help with my Asus Memopad 7 tablet.

I have been searching and trying for 2weeks how to unlock the bootloader.

According to the K01a model, I found countless tutorials (here, youtube, other forums that led again to xda...) and everywhere the bootloader for the K01a model ME170...,173,.... was described. But nothing worked, even though a few methods had some cooperation with the tablet, but without results.

I'm glad I locked the tablet.

I only found out from ASUS support that my K01a model is the ME70C version based on the serial number.

I'm looking for how to unlock the bootloader for the ME70C, but the instructions are nowhere to be found.

And if I find this one, it is listed here in the procedure for "downgrade" with android 5 installed.

On the contrary, I need an upgrade from Android 4.3. to 5 or 6 ( :-D ) so that I can use apps whose support ended for android 4.

How did you manage to unlock the bootloader to install android 5 on your tablet?

I was trying update to UL-K01A-WW-12.8.1.41-user but the upgrade will not complete ( i'm guessing because i still have build 10.32.1.....)

Asus Memopad7 for Europe distribution: Model K01A (ME70C), Android 4.3, Kernel version: 3.4.43 android@Scorpio #1 Tue Jul 22 14:38:47 CST 2014

Build number: JSS15Q.WW_MeMo_Pad-10.32.1.31.3-20140722

My bootloader has only menu:

Reboot droidboot

Reboot

Factory recovery

SD Download

Power Off

SD Update

Thanks for the help.

Have you found out a solution yet?

How did you try to update the OS?

What error message have you got?

Are you sure, youre downloading the same region update (WW-WW, UL-UL) from the official ASUS website?

Has anyone been having issues with the volume rocker sticking. This is my 3rd replacement device and all 3 have had the same issue. Volume rocker sticks and won't press up or down and when it does work it moves the volume all the way up or all the way down. Recently, the dropped the device so I will have to do an insurance claim but that's a different story.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coltendark:
Bare with me I'm new.

Whilst researching the input event system in the kernel, I came across the need to access the input handlers that have already been registered with an IRQ lane given only the irq lane (just the integer). Is there a method to access ALL event handlers associated with an IRQ? I am looking to map each list of handlers from a given input device (say mouse) to each possible event that the device could make.
[General Questions and Answers] NightOrchid:
I recently upgraded to a pixel 2 xl.. and after spending 3 days with it... i just want rid of it... Its not the pixels fault, theres nothing wrong with it as such, but Ive been on android since the Galaxy S and the HTC Desire.. and Ive had enough of it, so Im think of giving Iphone a try...

Im new to iPhone, so.... Alot of the 2nd hand stores are selling the 128/256GB 7 Plus on networks (EE, O2 etc) for fairly decent prices, and on ebay you can get them SIM unlocked in a similar way to the Pixels.. (the carrier unlocks the phone, they dont send you an NIC).. however, these codes are being offered on eBay..

My question is:

I thought the iPhone had to be Jail broken to sim unlock, so are these adverts genuine.. Can the 7/7Plus be SIM unlocked safely, so they are just like an Unlocked iPhone and everything works as it whould out of the box.. including updates.. Is this safe... Heres the link to the adverts

mod edit - sales link removed

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] RossTeagan:
Yes, the iPhone 7 can be unlocked. However, the unlocking process is not through Network unlock codes, but is similar to the unlocking process of T-Mobile and MetroPCS phones, where the IMEI is registered as unlocked.

The device’s IMEI needs to be registered as Unlocked in Apple’s database and afterward, there are a few steps that need to be followed in order to complete the unlocking process:

1. Installation of the latest version of iTunes on a target PC

2. Updating the iOS to the latest official version available on iTunes (if not already up to date)

3. Inserting a non-accepted SIM card and connecting the phone to iTunes

4. Wait until iTunes will detect your phone

5. Disconnect the phone and reconnect it after 10 seconds

6. Phone is Unlocked

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Sskhussaini:
Hello!

I'm using the OnePlus 3, with latest OTA update.

I want to know if there is a way to either disable or secure the pictures that appear when you swipe left on the camera, like what happens during lockscreen.

Related to this, I was trying to hide stuff in DCIM\>Camera from gallery, and I pasted a .nomedia file into it. The result is that now I can't see anything from Camera folder in the gallery, but it's a major inconvenience.

I tried using Media Scanner to bring everything back, but the app gets stuck on whatsaap sent images and recordings, even when I specify the Camera directory. Please help.

Thanks in advance!
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] zelendel:
You will have to remove that file. It will prevent any media scanner from seeing anything in that folder.

You will have to manually move the pics to a separate folder or find a gallery that has a lock option.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Sskhussaini:
Hey, thanks for the reply!

Sorry, I forgot to add that I already deleted the .nomedia file.:eek: That would be the first thing you do, actually.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] zelendel:
Then there is something in the watsapp folder that is causing the iisue. I cant be sure myself as no one I know uses it.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Sskhussaini:
[Fixed]

Thanks for your suggestion, the pictures started becoming visible because of one or more of these steps:

• I used a media scanning app.

• I restarted the phone, after clearing cache and force freezing the app.

• I just shifted all of the contents into another directory and back.

• Or because I viewed one or two images in the directory, which forced the system into scanning the entire folder, after which the pictures started showing up again.
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] PherChe:
Hello

I have a Moto Z and usually I use the JBL and battery mod. I'd like to know if you suggest to me unlock the bootloader or no

Yes, why?

No, why?

I only want to use greefy for sleep apps with root and chance the status bar icons and still using my Moto mods

Thank you
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] Rizqy186:
Did you try to use Xposed app before you're planning to unlock your phone?
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] PherChe:
But for Xposed I need a rooted phone and for root it is necessary to unlock it, right?

At least I remember that process with another motos.
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] Rizqy186:
Yes, some phones need unlocked bootloader before it can be rooted.

But, you also consider that bootloader unlocking may void your warranty.
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] pzUH:
No, if just for using greenify, I don't think it's necessary. As the phone is powerful enough to handle many apps. And you have battery pack, so battery shouldn't be a concern, isn't it?

Also no, if you're still in warranty period.

Yes, if you want to have more customization options.

I'll definitely unlock and root once my warranty is over.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=iZmjOlUq_3c
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nailyk:
No you have the right process :) But please use 8.1 branches instead.

Not everything is merged on 8.0 so you will have some troubles.

patches.sh script pick all pending commits on gerrit, it is for dev purposes and it is not a problem for not using it.

You have the right process:

repo init https://...../omnirom/android.git -b android-8.1

then get the manifest:

wget "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nailyk-fr/local_manifest/android-8.1/x-roomservice.xml" -o .repo/local_manifest/x-roomservice.xml

It shouldn't require changes (maybe the private repo?)

the sync your sources

repo sync (<-- you can do this multiples times to ensure you do not have some errors)

then you could build:

source ./build/ensetup.sh && breakfast z3 && mka cookies

Now go to sleep and wait for the build end ;)

P.S.: omnirom is provided on XDA if you do not want to build it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nailyk:
Partially.

WARNING: detected conflict in revisions for repository android_hardware_qcom_gps

mean the hardware/qcom/gps repo was not synced to 8.1 (this is was present on 8.0 & 8.1 but only fixed on 8.1)

To switch from 8.0 to 8.1 you need to do all the sync process again :s In another meaning you need to delete all the 8.0 sync and start from scratch.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s0f0s:
For 8.1 I created new directory i.e. I had ~/Android/roms/OmniROM/8.0 for 8.0 and created ~/Android/roms/OmniROM/8.1 for 8.1. Then

repo init -u git://github.com/omnirom/android.git -b android-8.1
...
wget "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nailyk-fr/local_manifests/android-8.1/x-roomservice.xml" -O .repo/local_manifests/x-roomservice.xml
repo sync

So can we consider this as starting from scratch?

And that warning persisted from the beginning. Looks like it is responsible for those errors with already defined modules.

Although it says 'in revisions' the particular problem is absence of '.repo/local_manifests/roomservice.xml' Looks like normally it is created automatically, but this does not happen. What could be the reason for this?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nailyk:
Yes this is a 'from scratch' sync.

Please post the error. Do not have it here.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nailyk:
Your remaining repositories errors are related to branch being updated.

You can pick this change: https://gerrit.omnirom.org/#/c/28265/ will solve some.

The next gps error is probably related to wrong branch too.

Delete the repo to ensure the 8.1 branch is synced:

rm -rf hardware/qcom/gps .repo/project-objects/android_hardware_qcom_gps.git .repo/projects/hardware/qcom/gps.git
repo sync hardware/qcom/gps

Do not add it, it will include gps twice, which cause you the next error. (gps include is directly called into device trees)

Never had the keystore missing one.

Ensure the repo is correctly synced, ( hardware/qcom/keymaster ) and on the right branch.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nailyk:
That is another issue.

GPS repo just got upgraded to 8.1 but not from 8.0.

Am trying again with : https://gerrit.omnirom.org/#/c/28672/

It should solve that issue. Currently running on jenkins.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s0f0s:
Yes, but where the USE_DEVICE_SPECIFIC_GPS flag is set?

This is conceptual solution, but in my case will produce the same result and so bring me to that keymaster issue, which I still do not understand :confused:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nailyk:
Just pick the patch for GPS.

We will solve the missing keystore later.

You are probably missing hardware/qcom/keymaster repo

hardware/qcom/keymaster/Android.mk:14:LOCAL_MODULE := keystore.$(TARGET_BOARD_PLATFORM)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nailyk:
My bad: https://github.com/nailyk-fr/local_manifests/commit/3a89e63ef7b2d6ae6bd87e44bdb6dd9615da516d

Dunno why the build ran fine on Jenkins with that missing dependency.

You probably need a repo sync --force-sync hardware/qcom/keymaster after fetching the new manifest.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s0f0s:
:good: just at first produces revision conflict with SnapdragonCamera2 cause its revision="android-8.0"

Now the build is in process (30%)

Meanwhile I want the situation with blueborne to be clarified a bit. I have found appropriate kernel commit in net/bluetooth/l2cap_core.c

file history, but searching for it among the project commits do not display it. Why :confused:

The same query works fine with android_kernel_oneplus_msm8998 commit history...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nailyk:
I cannot understand why it is not working for you while my jenkins build every nights https://releases.nailyk.fr/jenkins/job/omni-8.1/job/p_rom/156/console without problems :s

You cannot read the log if you didn't save it.

I use this to keep it.

Please paste the full log as attachement.

About kernel patch do not trust github search. Indexes are not updated often so result are almost always wrong on active projects.

You can use something based on this on your local tree.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nailyk:
:facepalm: didn't read your post carefully enough

Just see you are building an engineering build, not a userdebug one.

Please do:

source ./build/envsetup.sh && breakfast z3 && mka cookies.

In theory brunch command should be breakfast + mka, but never tried it.

Without specifying -eng build should be userdebug.

And thank you very much!

Now I came to crucial point. I never flashed z3 before and as I learned the probability of bricking the device is considerable. So the question is what is the best (safest) way to do this?

I have: Z3Dual D6633

I backed up the TA and unlocked the bootloader (officially) but did not flash anything.

As I think first I need a recovery, but the recovery is built during the ROM build. Is it so with the build I just performed and where do I find it (mean the recovery)?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nailyk:
Glad the builds now ran fine!

Yes you need a recovery. Follow instructions on the omnirom thread, you should be fine.

Do not use the built one, it is the useless AOSP recovery. Check my signature to find the proper TWRP.

Good luck!

edit: As you have a dual variant, if you didn't pick some pending patches about variant detect, you will need to 'flash' the zip provided on omnirom thread about variant detection solve.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s0f0s:
Thanks :) In your thread in section 'How to build' there is a broken link:

But it looks like I do not need special manifest because I have full android ROM project. Am I right? But what is crypto support?

And I have a rather geneal question: Is it possible to test the recovery I am going to build and the ROM I built previously not on the device but on some kind of emulator or so?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nailyk:
To test your recovery, flash it ;)

If you find some emulators they will not provide full tests, like dt table.

Crypto is encryption.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s0f0s:
Well, to get the TWRP should I just add the following to x-roomservice.xml

<project name="android_bootable_recovery" path="bootable/recovery-twrp" remote="omnirom" revision="android-8.1" />

and

repo sync bootable/recovery-twrp

Do I need to <remove-project> existing useless AOSP recovery in x-roomservice.xml ?

Do I need to rebuild the ROM after this?

You mentioned pending patches about variant detect for dual version of the device. Where could I find them? What are they for and will the ROM work without them?

Is it possible to build omnirom prerooted (how)?

Again lots of newbie stuff... sorry :confused:

Yes you need to remove the other recovery project, but build will fail. Newer TWRP version produce a too big binary for our partition size.

You need to build recovery: mka recoveryimage

Feels free to ask in the IRC chan, will probably be easier.

Ok, so i wanted to root my phone. I installed twrp and unlocked bootloader. Twrp was not working properly and phone wouldn't boot so i took it off twrp by using stock rom for my phone.

I tried all the key combinations but i cant get into recovery. I tried flashing it with sp flash, but everytime i plug in the phone it turns on, and before the tool can flash it , and because of that it fails. Can you guys please help me?

I can only get into recovery by using fastboot boot recovery.img from my computer.
