OK, what more i lose when i wipe /hw_init ?

How can i do FR ? flash stock recovery from TWRP of fastboot than do FR or ... ? than after FR flash TWRP again ?
[Huawei Mate 10  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Tecalote:
That was my question too some posts ago..

Now I have the answer :)

But there's still the possibility to compile TWRP with excluding "OEM Path" from data wipe like: /data/hw_init (and other required files and folders which come preinstalled with Firmware in this directory)

Since Huawei also houses system apps in data, the phone loses different functions when /data is completely wiped.

OldDroid excluded this parts of the Firmware in his TWRPs and it's very useful because it allows to do Factoryreset (which should be a usable part of TWRP) without EMUI Recovery.

So Factoryreset would be with TWRP the same than with Stock Recovery, just deleting User Apps and settings..

What do you think about?
[Huawei Mate 10  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xmyszka:
+1

BTW:

FACTORY RESET - flash stock recovery img from TWRP or fastboot than do Factory Reset - it works fine than after reboot if you want flash again TWRP

is any posibility to flash TWRP recovery through teriminal emu, like:

su

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recoveryTWRP.img ??

New test build for Mate 10 (ALP) ,but should also work just fine with Pro (BLA) and maybe 8.1 custom roms .Please test and report back.

I don't notice any difference on first boot. Should I check for something?
[Huawei Mate 10  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Pretoriano80:
So it works fine? This one is based on 0.4 for blanc, so if everything it's fine for ALP, then next version will be unified for both ALP and BLA.

Test the usual stuff, just to make sure it's working fine.
[Huawei Mate 10  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xpdragon:
Flashed the new test build without any issue on ALP. Mounting & unmounting work with system and vendor.
[Huawei Mate 10  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Pretoriano80:
Great! In this case next release will be an unified version for both ALP and BLA.

Touch is working fine, right?
[Huawei Mate 10  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] xpdragon:
Yup, touch still works fine with ALP. I flashed a zip test without any issue.
[Huawei Mate 10  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Pretoriano80:

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vanstrien:
My son has a Note 4 from Sprint on FreedomPop. (Only the best for my boy!)

A few days ago he enabled "Secured with Password" for the Screen Lock. He typed twice a well known password for us. But now the phone unlocks with a swipe and it won't accept his password for the screen lock.

I rebooted, wiped the cache, etc. No matter what we type (even his last few passwords) it won't accept and let us in to modify the Screen Lock. So now he can get in but it is less secure than before. Rooting probably won't help unless maybe I figure out what file or command might take care of this.

Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] gannjunior:
Hi guys,

want to unlock/root my S8: I heard there are very good variants of Camera app so I want take advantage about this.

I have the exynos (europe). I found many threads but not a specific one. I tried to search for a specific guide but I did not found.

I understand I have to "oem unlock" through developer option.

So I'm able to flash this TWRP trought Odin.

After that I have to root flashing Magisk through TWRP ?

And later I can choose a ROM to be flashed (any special to suggest?).

Is it important If I start from 7.0 ore 8.0 for all the above process?

All these processes are reversible? What about knox protection?

Thank u in advance,

ciao
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] AstroDigital:
Really !!! Why do people buy Samsung Devices ?

Yes I own a Galaxy S7 and yes I know what board this is but

The phone provided to me by work and I am stuck with it

This is a work phone I can not debloat, root, do custom ROMs

So what do I have,

I have a device that will never see Android 8.1, hell even the S 9 is at 8.0 "You know the S 9 may get Android 9.0 in the summer of 2019 if they are lucky.

I will not hold my breath for even 8.0

Every second day it seems Samsung pushes on my device some "Samsung" bloat they think I want, I which I can never uninstall and if I try to disable it, it will turn back on.

They feel they have a great, interface..... Without Nova Launcher I will be lost.

Thank you for not having Bixby..... maybe Samsung will decide to push that piece of junk to the S7 but for now I am free

Really I hate the S7, the bloat, being locked down, the lack of updates but people still buy them ?

Why ?

Maybe a major market is Corporations that like locked down devices.

Yes the company says here is your S7 ..... enjoy.

I hate the Samsung S9 so much I may actually buy my own device for work "The Pixel", think I will wait for the Pixel 3 but then ..... to Samsung so long and thanks for the Bloat.

Because they are good at making commercials so they lie people. And people are stupid and buying every year the new Samsung. They don't give a damn about android, they just want the latest model from Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] koboltzz:
[MENTION=5943070]andrei1412[/MENTION]

Not really... Samsung is simply the best hardware manufacturer, best amoled display (always the brightest every year), best camera (yes other manufacurer are building nice ones too), really good build quality overall, Samsung theme store (to establish android vanilla look, who else is featureing this?). You don't need to debloat since you don't neeed to use the samsung apps. Debloating can lead to increased battery drain.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] stuey25:
As they said above, usually the best hardware for droid phones at that point in time and the Samsung hype makes it same league as iPhone so anyone who dislikes Apple usually go Samsung if they don't go HTC, or moto. For me I have owned the majority of every galaxy s and these phones with custom roms always seemed to be the best droid phone on the market in terms of battery life and performance.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] cristiandiaconu6:
What custom rom you think is the best for galaxy s7? And also it`s worth to root it and lose spay & other things that work only with knox? Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] stuey25:
Probably not worth it if you use those features, I think some of the roms can be ran with no root cause there based on stock and still use that stuff but I'm not sure about Knox. I've only had this s7 flat for a week and tried, bobcat rom, slim stable 2.0, and I'm on ultimate nougat now. I'm really liking ultimate nougats look with the theme,battery life so far, and the debloat.

These 3 seem stable but there's a ton of roms to choose from so you would have to test for yourself to determine your best and read/ sift through the threads and see what people are saying about the rom.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] DarkerJava:
You can disable all bloat using a package disabler, which works without root. Android 8.0 is coming in 2 weeks, and I don't know why you even want 8.1 because there are almost no changes to talk about. Even 8.0's most notable feature PIP has been available in Samsung devices for a long time.

Your problems about rooting and custom ROMs are only because it's a work phone.

It looks like you didn't research any of your problems before coming to rant here :/

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] PGHammer:
We (as a household) have a rather large number of Samsung devices - the S7 is, in fact, the first one that was NOT purchased deliberately (I got it as a gift) and replaced the far-older Galaxy Nexus (which I got from my mother). We also have two Galaxy tablets and four Samsung HDTVs (and two Samsung optical drives). Why all the Samsung hardware? Three words - bang for buck. Look at ALL the areas in which Samsung makes hardware (from Android to PC to appliances they have (and rather consistently) offered top-ten bang-for-buck - and not just in the US; if you do that, your products will sell. Are they perfect? No; however, who is? Even the folks that have DINGED Samsung admit that it is often due to issues with a specific Samsung product or a specific lack (in the case of the S7, it's about the locked bootloader). Still, is an unlocked bootloader that big a plus on the devices that compete with the S7 and up? How many of those devices have issues WORSE than those of the S7 and above - even with the locked bootloader (such as the Pixel and Pixel2)?

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] DarkerJava:
I'm also in Canada and usually we get updates without delay after their release from Samsung. From what I've seen (on their OS upgrade schedule), they only announce the release dates for updates a couple of days before we actually get them. My source is another phone carrier in another country: http://www.guncelmiyiz.com/akilli-telefon .

For the bloatware, you can uninstall all updates and keep the stubs (which will remove most of the app), and then freeze the app using AdHell or SABS. Although there isn't much bloatware to start with on phones in Canada.

I think the feature he wants is when he is looking at Software Information and Android Version to see the Number 8.1. He can't name other feature because he doesn't know one.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] AstroDigital:
most imbecile rant I do not call people names maybe you should look in a mirror.

You know what I find imbecilic is Samsung fanboys, you claim you like Android yet you sign up with a company that does not give you a pure Android Experience.

You are so blind to Samsung you do not realize their hardware is not significantly better than from other manufacturers.

Amoled unless if you are and anal idiot, displays are subjective

Top Camera this is a S7 while the camera is good "it is not the best"

Large battery do you suppose other phone have significantly worse better live ?

Top processor many phones have newer generation processors, but like the "best" display the processor even on a 2 year old device runs everything fine.

Wireless Charging is at times convenient but not a deal maker you do know Wireless chargers are slower and not as efficient as chargers that some people have a hard time with figuring out. "Do some research look it up"

IP68 once again, you know out of the several dozen Android devices I purchased ....... not one ever got water damaged.

Out of all of these ......

I rather have Android as it is meet to be from the inventors non modified and non skinned

Hardware be damned

And yes I know what Google introduced in 8.1 https://www.xda-developers.com/android-8-1-oreo-developer-preview-features/

The Essential phone skipped Android 8.0 and when directly to 8.1

Samsung S9 and S9+ released with 8.0

Rogers at the time only had the Samsung S7, no other devices.

Hopefully this discussion can be a civil exchange of opinions from both Samsung haters and lovers alike. We must all accept that as human beings, each one of us is entitled to our opinion and/or preferences, regardless of whether they're seen as logical or not by others.

Keep it cool, dudes.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] DarkerJava:
They may not have significantly better hardware now, but it was still the best of its time. The camera was the best until the Pixel came out half a year later. There were no compromises with this phone, and as much as you try make hardware features not seem not as important, they make a difference when choosing between something like a iPhone 6s/7 and another device.

And now I ask, how is anything of what you've said detract from the Android experience? Samsung may add features to Android, but they don't ever take away. I can also fully reskin Touchwiz to look like stock with any theme I like using Substratum and Nova Launcher. I also don't know why Android 8.1 is so important to you, as everything is just a UI change.

You probably shouldn't have bought a 2 year old non-Google phone if you wanted to jerk off to having the latest UI from Google. Also, you should realize that many people don't care about simple UI changes or optical differences. Maybe if we were iOS users, we would care, but this is a forum for Android enthusiasts.

Don't call others fanboys or other silly names just because they have different expectations when they buy a device.

Hi,

Somebody know how to separate/unlink volume for the calls and notifications? I tried to install and to set VolumeButler app, no success here :(

Please help

Thanks
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] jaseman:
I know it can be done because my backup phone...ZTE Axon 7 has it built in. However, unless the OEM implements it I have never had any success in using third party apps to get it to work properly. Even though some apps make it "look" like it unlinked them...they still operate in lock step with each other. This is a Google Android thing. Since Google likes to make so many changes all the time I wish they would change this requested behavior since I know it can be done!

Since I use only one notification tone for all text messages what I did was create the one I want at half volume. That way when I have full volume for the ringtone the notification volume doesn't scream at me. I just use a built in tone for Gmail and Outlook. Of course if you need a different tone for each contact...well...it can be done by the same method but it is a lot of work creating all those tones. This of course is all based on using your own personal tones and not what comes with the phone by default.

Hello, dear xdadevelopers! I’ll be grateful if you could review our new game Heroes of Alterant :)

Heroes of Alterant game demonstrates a new format of match-3 style combat between real players. The game offers twelve heroes with different battle styles, while great visuals and music will make every moment breathtaking! More than a million players from around the world have already joined the game.

In Heroes of Alterant, players clash on a playfield, taking turns in casting spells and shifting stones.

Every stone has its own mechanics:

Hammers inflict damage to enemy;

Hearts restore player’s health;

Orange stones grant you a shield that can absorb the next attack completely;

Blue stones give mana required to cast spells;

Purple stones enable using a superpower that might turn the tide of the battle.

You need to drop opponent's health to 0 to win.

Spells:

Each hero wields five spells. Different spells suit different situations, so brace yourself and experiment! Spells and battlefield event combinations can create an unforgettable experience.

Unlike all Match-3 RPG presented on the market, our game demonstrates a new match-3 format for battles between real players. We decided to bet on spells, so gem collecting took a back seat in our game. Each hero has their own unique spells, and a player has full control over them.

When we say that match-3 mechanics took a back seat, we do not mean that collapsing gems does not affect the outcome of battles in any way. On the contrary, in Heroes of Alterant we tried to make useful every gem on the field. Cast spells properly and use various combinations of gems to win!

Game features:

New battle system that won’t let you get bored;

PvP battles between real players;

Every hero has unique gameplay and tactics;

Every upgrade makes all heroes stronger;

Great visuals and beautiful music;

Frequent events and contests in social networks;

More than a million players around the world (social platforms, common server).

Game trailer:

[YOUTUBE]Ve0n5f0xL0o[/YOUTUBE]

Heroes of Alterant is a free-to-play game available on Android. IOS version will be available in autumn 2018. The game is localized into English and Russian languages.

Google Play Store link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.okg.alterant

Today I thought why not? I bake the motherboard in the oven, did so. After 200 degrees Celsius, maybe a little more, 10 minutes in the oven and time for cooling down I manage to get the phone start. Now it's running LOS without problem.
