[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] vwtc6yc8e:
in case something goes wrong, i wanted to be able to flash stock recovery.

the stock firmware (rom) that i have in hand, does not contain a recovery image, at least that is what it seems to a samsung device newbie like me. these the files that i do have within the firmware archive:

AP_A320FXXU2BQI3_CL11883096_QB15086315_REV00_user_low_ship_meta.tar.md5
BL_A320FXXU2BQI3_CL11883096_QB15086315_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
CP_A320FXXU2BQG4_CL589129_QB6977370_SIGNED.tar.md5
CSC_OJV_A320FOJV2BQI3_CL12328718_QB15071626_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
HOME_CSC_OJV_A320FOJV2BQI3_CL12328718_QB15071626_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5

so if there is no way to only flash the stock recovery, i am afraid of bricking the phone...

[MENTION=7698739]McFy[/MENTION]: i am sure you could shed the light on the matter - what is the best way (if there is such) to flash only the stock recovery?
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] SK00RUPA:
https://desktop.firmware.mobi/device:141/firmware:15535 there you can download latest stock recovery :)
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] xtracter360:
Nope I selected the .tar file (btw: you can't pick an .img file in Odin). The log is .img because I think Odin extracted it.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] McFy:
Yes it's possible. you can extract the recovery.img from AP package and either flash as img in twrp or tar it and use odin. Samsung are pretty safe from hardbrick, you will everytime have access to the download mode ;)
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] vwtc6yc8e:
the recover.img file is indeed within the ap package.

if flashing twrp fails and i have to flash the stock recovery, clearly i won't be able to use twrp to do so :)

[MENTION=7698739]McFy[/MENTION]: thank you for answering so many questions. deeply appreciated.

i see that the files have the tar.md5 file extension and not only tar.

(1) where is the md5 digest?

(2) why is it names like that?

(3) can i just only tar the recovery.img and i am done?
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] McFy:
md5 doesn't matter, you can still extract it as a tar archive, then you will get the recovery.img,

trust me it will not happen :)
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] vwtc6yc8e:
in the developer options i've enabled usb debugging and oem unlock.

i installed samsung usb drivers and adb. using

adb devices

i was able to detect my device.

using oding v3.13.1 i tried to flash twrp but i got the following error:

[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] vwtc6yc8e:
this is what i did in order to flash it:

1. flashed twrp 3.1.1-1

2. then using twrp, i flashed the twrp img (not tar) file

now i have twrp ver 3.2.1 running.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] vwtc6yc8e:
i am unsure how the image was compiled even when i looked at the code, but i was unable to read the /data partition which was encrypted.

i had to decrypt it in order to be able to flash magisk.

[MENTION=7698739]McFy[/MENTION]:

1. is it possible to check\get the complication flag from adb or twrp itself?

2. can you please also share what are the flags that you used to compile it? (see all my links above)

3. if the TW_INCLUDE_CRYPTO is set to false in your build, could you kindly include it in your next build if you make one?
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] McFy:
1. I think it's impossible

2. You can look at them on sources

3. It's yet set in true
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] vwtc6yc8e:
didn't understand you. do you set the value to true when you compiled?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] hkpkguy:
i need some help

when i connect the usb with my tilt

it just charges the phone
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mcmexican:
You want to give a little bit more information?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ~~Tito~~:
Yes, that would help. What happens when you connect and what version of active sync do you have and what Windows OS are you running?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gqstatus0685:
Step one: make sure you have activesync v. 4.5

step two: disable your norton or mcafee or whatever virus protection you have

step three: go to start, control panel, switch to classic view (on the left side) click on windows firewall and disable it.

it should connect at this point.

leave the device connected and disable one at a time when you hear that little activesync noise you've found the program that was causing the problem. Ta Da! let me know if that works. PM me if anything else.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] hkpkguy:
i tired it

but it still doesnt work

i am using xp, and the activesync is 4.5

when i connect the phone to PC, it doesnt even show up new hardware detected and asked me to install a driver

it just keep charging the phone
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ~~Tito~~:
Hmmmmm, hard reset or in device manager check for your device's driver and delete it, then try again.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] hkpkguy:
already did a hard reset

where is device manager located?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ~~Tito~~:
Right click on my computer, go to properties, then hardware, then click device manager.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] hkpkguy:
r u asking me to removed all usb drivers?

coz it doesnt say which one is which
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ach2:
Sometimes this is a simple cable problem.

Try a different USB Port on your computer, or a different cable. Also check that you haven't damaged the USB connection on your phone (some people do this by poking it with their stylus when trying to soft reset).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Cavey.co.uk:
I had a similar problem, no idea if it is the same or even similar, but with mine RAPImgr also locked up and spiked the CPU usage to 50% (ie maxed out one of the cores - have a look in task manager). This only started happening with my Kaiser, wasn't happening with the Hermes....

Anyway, the way I solved it was to go to Start -> Settings -> Connections -> USB to PC and disable the "advanced network functionality" (ie uncheck the box).

If I had already plugged the phone into the computer, rapimgr would already be locked up and the only solution was to reboot (killing the process spawns a new one and when you finally find its parent's parent to kill, it takes out something vital which causes the machine to force a reboot).

For it to connect to my Vista box, I have to have this setting enabled. For XP I have to have it disabled.

Hope this is of some help.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] rjcb23:
I too was having this problem - i uninstalled ActiveSync from my PC and reinstalled it from the MS site - works fine now.
[Samsung Gear S3] deueb:
I had read some articles about eSim

and got the below Conclusion.

Only for docomo(Japan), but I think it maybe same to other countries providers!

1. eSim default has a limited profile.

It's initially stored in the eUICC when it is shipped. It is a limited-application communication profile used only for downloading and switching Operational Profiles for connect to the carrier.

The parameters are:

ICCID, MSISDN(sounds tel-bum), IMSI

2. The profile that be download to eSim, is generated on the server by staff of carrier, and if it's has been registered, it will be deleted.

So, if you want to register to GearS3 with another device's eSim number, you need to ask the carrier to generate profile again.

Dear brother ad free

Yes I receive the sm-r765f ,

buy from a Singapore girl who was luck for hit it in lot, and sell it on BBS.

It's amazing that I got a total brand new one and no registration for esim. Of course the ICCID is Singapore number dummy number(Singapore country code is 525, but this is 033!! ****The first digit of the mobile country code identifies the geographic region : 0 - Test networks***). See attached file.

So I think if can't replace it, maybe I can add necessary parameters to QR-code to overwrite.

Any way to export 765f's firmware? Tell me plz if know.

Thanks a lot.

I'm not Germany,

Even I like Germany's culture and products. ^^

Please help me
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w41ru5:
Open the back cover and write down the serial number - it's located under the battery. Write it down.

Install Smart Switch from Samsung on your PC.

Install Samsung drivers.

Go in download mode - volume down+power+home , then connect the phone to the PC.

Then on the Smart switch go the "More" and hit the "Emergency recovery bla bla".

It will ask you to insert the phone type, bla bla and serial number.

Then it will flash the original firmware.

Hello guys!

I'm looking for a smartwatch (branded or not) with standalone possibility and wifi connectivity. I'd like to use it in a custom project, so I need to have a watch without need to be paired to a smartphone and with WiFi.

I've found a lot of chinease devices for this porpuse, but I don't know which is the best. Also, a branded watch will be preferred.

Any advice?

Thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] The.Guv:
As an app developer I'm adding features to my work, and testing on various devices including my own which I have Nova Launcher (Prime) on it (a Galaxy S8+).

Today I started experimenting with ShortcutManager and on devices from Sony, LG, & Google, and they display properly, but not on Samsung devices.

Is there something in Nova Launcher that can read the shortcuts on devices where the manufacturer hasn't put the functionality into their launcher?

I hope this can be added as a feature to improve the functionality of the devices.

Thanks
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] Eiradiana:
As said in the performance part of the forum, it's not the fastest phone on the market, but it can definitely surprise you by the overall smoothness in mono-thread. In multi thread, EMUI kills the 3rd app launched. It reminds me of the Jelly bean era with low end phones... A bit bizarre.

And I found something even more interesting : as a mobile musician, I tried to use iGrand Piano from IK Multimedia and found out the phone has an imperceptible lag. I think it must be around 30ms max, and possibly under in touch to sound mode, which is really rare on the android market and on this price range. It's really great for choir when you want to quickly find a note. Seeing the potential, I then wanted to use an iRig Keys (mini-keys) with it but the stock firmware doesn't allow OTG. It's unfortunate because the OTG is present in the hardware. I couldn't unlock my phone because the Huawei website never wanted to give me my unlock code. So I got an Honor 9 Lite which was a lot more powerful and had OTG out of the box. What a deception : it had a latency of around 200-300ms out of the box with IK Multimedia iGrand Piano/iLectric in touch-to-speaker mode. In touch or midi-to-speaker, it was a lot better but still a lot above 30ms (i think around 100ms, which is really hard to play). I tried deactivating a lot of stuff but it didn't change anything. Also, the smoothness of the screen is far inferior to the Honor 5x : it has a lot of remanence and although you can launch 50 apps without lag and everything launches 10x times faster than on the Honor 5X, the overall feeling of the screen is really crappy which is a shame for an "evolution".

I finally managed to unlock the bootloader of the Honor 5X this weekend : the Huawei website seemed to have evolved and asked for one more field than before et and it worked when I retried.

So I tried several Nougat OS 7.1.2 : Resurrction Remix, DotOS, Cosmic, and had the same lag (around 200-300ms) as on the Honor 9 Lite. I remembered it was absolutely perfect with the OEM skin on Marshmallow and decided it was more important to have low latency audio than the latest Android version. I tried a Cyanogenmod Marshmallow and a ResurrectionRemix 5.7.4 and it worked like a charm ! Around 30ms, almost imperceptible : it's less than a real organ or than my old Erard piano with bizarre insides and with which I learned the instrument. The weird thing is I tried the tool from superpowered.com to measure latency and it indicates 300ms on the Honor 5x and 170ms on the Honor 9 Lite. I still do'nt understand what and how it is measured as the results are far from this in the 5X case.

So for you all : just check a Marshmallow custom Rom if you need low latency audio on this marvellous phone. It seemed it can be the equal or beat Nexus 6P phones and other high-end devices almost out of the box on this field.
[General Questions and Answers] Living4God1991:
Hi. I apologize if this is the wrong place to ask this. I have a MetroPCS LG Aristo 2 running Nougat 7.1.1. I'm finding the built-in Smart Lock to be pretty unreliable for detecting places, so I'm wondering if this is possible without rooting or other modifications that risk breaking my phone. I'm connected to the WiFi a lot, so it would be great if I could keep my phone unlocked around certain networks. A long time ago, I used an app called SkipLock to do this, but last time I checked, it wasn't compatible with newer versions of Android. I have Tasker, so I thought maybe it could help, but I'm still learning how to use it. I'm also considering getting the AutoApps subscription if that will help. Is there any way to do this? Thanks.
