[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] shittys9:
Holy crap, I thought mine were bad, but yours are hilarious! Hilariously bad, that is. I'm sorry to confirm that my phone also takes really ****ty zoomed photos, but I have no fix for it. I asked in another forum if their phone also takes as bad zoomed in pictures, but they said I have problems with my eyes and that there's nothing wrong with the pictures smh. Since I got the phone mostly for the camera, this is a real deal breaker for me and I returned it. Maybe if they fix it in software in the future, I'll consider buying it again, but until then I cannot use it like this.

Edit: you *could* theoretically fix this by using another camera app, but that means you won't be able to use the 1.5 aperture

I have successfully bricked my Nokia 8 Ta-1004. What I did was following this thread

https://xdaforums.com/nokia-8/development/question-nokia-8-partitions-t3682617

So, here's the story; At first, I was doing that procedure in above link one by one. Since my bootloader is unlocked thanks to [MENTION=3665957]the_laser[/MENTION]. I decided to use adb reboot bootloader and follow the procedure (Not using OST LA). Then I typed the command below:

fastboot-android flash boot NB1-boot.img

fastboot-android reboot

Press and hold Volume Up, then execute the command above. Keep holding Volume Up until you see the 7to logo.

I didn't do the BOLD one because I forgot. Due to that, not only did the TWRP not showing up, but it also always show DOWNLOAD MODE in Nokia 8 whenever I restart. I was desperate and then I use this thread and said screw the TWRP. I just need root at all.

https://xdaforums.com/nokia-8/development/testing-flash-patched-boot-img-to-t3729396

1. Install OST LA and patch it, and OPEN IT FROM INSTALLATION DIRECTORY DIRECTLY.

2. Flash required firmware before proceed. If you don't do that, you won't be able to access Wi-Fi after the boot.img flashed.

Quote:

For Nokia 7, you need to use the firmware "C1N-0430-0-00CN-B05" which I haven't released to public for some reason.

For Nokia 8, you need to use the firmware "NB1-435J-0-00WW-B01" which released in this topic: https://xdaforums.com/sho....php?t=3678487

If you've already flashed required firmware before proceed, you can skip this part.

3. Use the Service Purposed Bootloader trick I've mentioned in the Nokia 6 Root Guide: https://xdaforums.com/sho....php?t=3702354

4. Type these commands:

Code:

fastboot-android flash boot_a E:\NB1-435J-Boot-Patched.img

fastboot-android flash boot_b E:\NB1-435J-Boot-Patched.img

fastboot-android reboot

5. If it's accepted by the system, the phone will reboot twice, and you'll see SuperSU appeared.

So, I skipped the BOLD part since my bootloader is unlocked and I didnt use OST LA. I proceeded to patch using given img. Not the same one as the first link. After I rebooted, it is no longer reboot to DOWNLOAD MODE. It can go into the OS but I see no SUPERSU and the device is now stuck in auto restart.

I think the main issue is the incorrect boot.img to the firmware. If anyone must know, my security android is February 1, 2018. I forgot the build number of my firmware. I figure if i use boot.img I can recover the OS.

Does anyone have stock boot.img so i can reflash it? Thank you. I am so desperate.

N.B: I tried using OST LA oreo version to flash the firmware "NB1-435J-0-00WW-B01". Guess what, It is stuck in "FLASHING SERVICE BOOTLOADER". Now I am in total desperate. :( I thought this could recover from bricked phone.
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] 2WildFirE:
I'll have the stock boot. IMG, but I think if u flash this, wifi gets broken. I have the broken wifi and after flash self patched boot.img to gain root.

Now I have root with magisk, but no wifi

Let me try the stock boot.img to flash into boot_A and boot_B if you may.

I flashed two of them which makes me think it is the cause of boot loop.

Yes, it is for Stock boot.img that you gave me.

Using TWRP or Patched BOOT.IMG

Yeah, I am thinking for now patching boot.img is the way to achieve root without TWRP. Unless someone releases TWRP Officially and way to flash it. I am just gonna stick to this.

Waiting for someone to patch it too.

I am noob when using Android kitchen. Do you have patched with super su instead?

Well, no way but to use stock boot.img to get wifi again.

[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] godofknife:
I really dont understand some. I noticed NB1 484A 00WW SP01 and this NB1-484A-0-00WW-B03

What are the differences? Does flashing the wrong one will cause boot loop?
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] nummerok:
SP01 is not present in the support, as a whole update. that part. A NB1-484D-0-00WW-A01_000 and NB1-484E-0-00WW-A01_000 are in the testing phase. If you put the boot partition from another version of the firmware, then there will be problems. Will stop working WiFi, camera, and other features, and maybe the phone will not boot at all

after flashing the update i have wifi back working!

update ota zip is atm uploading to gdrive

[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] godofknife:
So let me summarize this sir [MENTION=3424660]2WildFirE[/MENTION]:

1. We use the Stock ROM in February 1, 2018 security patch one Android Oreo version.

2. Then, we flash the patched boot.img to gain root. The risk is no wifi or camera working

3. After that, we use the update zip you gave in Mediafire link either put in SDcard or just in computer.

4. By flashing in recovery, do you mean Android stock recovery with "NO COMMAND"? If so, how do we select the menu? (No matter how hard i pressed keys, it won't show the menu)

5. Flashing via SDcard or adbsideload?

6. After rebooting, you have the latest March 1, 2018 security patch with latest Android Oreo Version with Root and WIFI working?

For the BOLD one, is it the same as what I summarize?
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] 2WildFirE:
Ok ;)

1. i'm on march security and here is the problem! i patched the february boot.img! and flashed it on my march security system!

2. yep there is ever a bit risk

3/4. yes if you see the andy with no command'' push and release power then vol+ voila here is the menu u need.

5. what ever u want ;) open cmd type adb sideload (path to the update.zip)

6. no but we have wifi back ;)

we need the sp01 boot.img to patch it, better is we have twrp working

Also, sp01 boot.img is not exist? Or no one has managed to decompile from firmware yet?

hello fellow nokia 8 owners!

I have found this fresh (today) tutorial https ://twrp .me/razer/razerphone.html that outlines the process of having TWRP installed on a Razer phone to back up Boot and System Image. This device has an AB partition scheme just like our Nokia 8...

Can anyone tell if would it be possible to do the same process with the custom TWRP recovery [MENTION=7601808]hikari_calyx[/MENTION] has used on his PROTO Nokia 8 so we can have TWRP and Magisk?

Either by grabing the boot.img to patch in magiskmanager for root in the latest Android March patch release or by flashing magisk-v16.zip under TWRP :D

Use older boot.img and patch it, then use fastboot boot command to gain temporary root permission. After that, you should be able to dump stock boot from the phone, and you'll know what to do next.

[Fire HD 6 and 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netgeek1:
I installed Amazon FreeTime from the Google Play store and found out it is NOT the same as the one contained on the Kindles themselves. Looking at the app itself, it does not have a built in search, nor does it have ANY of the curated apps, just the books, videos and websites. I am trying to install the app from a Kindle Fire Kids to an LG G Pad X 10.1.

Kids Kindle Fire 7 (Fire 5th Generation) running Fire OS 5.6.0.1.

LG G Pad X 10.1 running Android 6.0

I have backed up the APK with ES Explorer and moved it over to the LG. When I tried to install it it fails with "App not installed".

I purchased APK Editor Pro and tried to modify the name to match the current Google Play Store version name:

Amazon Kindle version:

FreeTimeApp-fireos_v3.12_Build-1.0.200441.0.13831 (312013310)

Google Play Store version:

FreeTimeApp-aosp_v3.13_Build-1.0.200994.0.17628 (213399010)

This did not change anything and I still receive the error.

Two things I did notice though is that the original Google Play version has a file size of 37.4 MB (while the Amazon version is 13.62 MB - this may be a part of the problem) and shows

Minimum API (21)

Target API (19)

After editing the Amazon apk with APK Editor, even though I have modified the version it shows 3/3 (Cupcake). I have tried to figure it out in Android Studio, but have no idea how to use it.

Any help is very much appreciated.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] dj_ooms:
The equaliser is in Play Music settings. I believe the bass boost and surround sound settings may only work when using external sound sources like headphones or Bluetooth speakers. Can't check at the moment as I don't have either with me.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] initeshx:
Bass and Surround will only work if you connect a pair of headphones or speakers, either via USB C or Bluetooth.

You can't enable it on speaker mode

Thanks guys, figured that out. I've turned them off since they distort the sound on Android auto even though they are greyed out.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] ReisenUdongeinInaba:
Just to cheekily add to this thread, the GPM equaliser is pretty naff as it is. It'll work for a few hours, and then you suddenly loose the bass boost, and changing settings in GPM has no effect until you reboot the device again. A problem that's been around for a while with no fix.

Hi, can you send a link to dl it ? Thanks
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
No, I'm afraid I can't. Not because I don't want to, but because I didn't download Viper4Android that way. If you're rooted with Magisk, you can find it in the Downloads section of Magisk Manager. If you do install it, I also recommend installing Ainur Sauron, the Audio Compatibility Patch, and the Audio Modification Library. Those four modules combined should cover all your music.
