[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] baldusiek:
I'm also trying to access this ( *#*#4636#*#* ) RADIO TESTING mode on a N960F/DS XSP(Singapore) CSC but nothing happens when I enter it...works fine on a N910T and I also have a LG V20 and this code partially works since the RADIO setting can't be accessed as it shows this mode doesn't work on this device despite showing up for a split second before I get that message) whereas the rest of the settings like Wi-FI and battery stats work on *#*#46363#*#*

The closest I can get to the radio testing network settings is with the aforementioned *#2263# code which displays the Network Settings for band selection/ HSPA Setting and Band Disable but I want to be able to turn off the radio receiver manually instead of using airplane mode.

2 How can I enable HD voice calls on my N960F/DS as my Note4 N910T automatically has HD voice calls despite using the same sim?

I'm asking because a person I know also has a dual sim N960F with the UAE (United Arab Emirates) CSC and I seen he had the "HD" on his caller screen when he made a call.

3. I have a VoLTE icon in my notification panel icons but I can't turn it on as well. When I press hold it then the Mobile Networks page appears but nothing about VoLTE is shown.

Any help would be appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] crazy_dr0id:
To get volte and wifi calling to work you need to flash all firmware files with CSC not CSC home to your device in Odin ensuring that it matches the carrier you're using aka matching your sim (sim 1 and leave sim 2 empty if using a dual Sim device).

If you have a multicarrier model like we do in Canada (ex: XAC CSC/carrier code vs RWC which is carrier specific to Rogers wireless only) you can flash correct carrier's firmware or multicarrier ensuring correct carrier's sim is installed before first boot as the device will set CSC to that sim card carrier on first boot. In doing so this sets a Service Provider SW version which can be seen in software info settings under device info settings. I've attached mine so you can see what I mean.

The device model number and AP, BL, CP, and CSC all need to match to have volte and wifi calling options work properly with a carrier who offers these services if compatible with your device.

This will wipe all data and apps so back up before attempting.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] billa:
An easy way to try get the band change code *#2263# to work without combination firmware or root, is by inserting different carrier SIM cards, let it reboot, reconfigure on the blue screen, then try the code again. If it doesn't work, keep trying another carrier SIM, and you're bound to find one who's CSC allows the code to work. ;)

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] magicmaker:
I am sure this has been asked and answered 100 times but for the life of me I can't find a definite answer. I have a Pixel 2 XL and it is rooted and I have Magisk and TWRP installed on it. I want to be able to install the OTA for this month, but I do not want to lose anything on the phone. I also would rather not lose Magisk or TWRP. Normally on my android phones I use ROMs and can just update through TWRP, but I want to stay on stock because I don't want to lose Active Edge. So can someone please help me by giving me step by step instructions or point me to instructions that are simple to follow so I can take the OTA?

I really appreciate the help.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] EnIXmA:
I was having the same problem and was helped by some of the members here.. Best way is to flash the firmware after removing the -w from the flash all file. Then flash twrp and magisk.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] MrPhilo:
Hi, quick question

I am only able to do them steps above if I have done 'fastboot unlock_critical'? I have only done 'fastboot unlock'

Also I would need to boot into TWRP and flash a kernel + magisk to retain root?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
You have to issue the "fastboot unlock_critical" command in order for the bootloader to update, since the bootloader is included in both factory images and full OTAs. Speaking of full OTA's, one of our recognized developers, [MENTION=3812611]elliwigy[/MENTION], revealed (thread here) that it is possible to flash a full OTA image through TWRP, which eliminates the need to open the factory image and remove the -w flag from the last line. Flashing the OTA works because TWRP doesn't check signatures like the stock recovery. You will lose both root and TWRP upon reboot however, so you will still need to connect to a PC in order to reinstall TWRP so you can subsequently replace the stock Kernel with the Flash Kernel and then root.

I can verify this works, as I tried it with the May update.

Anyone else having issues with Chromecast devices showing up intermittently in apps? It seems some days devices do not show up unless I fully reboot my phone. I know this wasn't the case always, so I'm assuming it had to be one of the last few months updates. Curious if anyone else is experiencing the same.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Exelios:
I have a spare Razer Phone I want to donate to a developer in order to boost development for this device, since Razer released Treble for it the device got my attention, but it could use a bit more development.

Current status:

Official TWRP available

Treble available

Kernel source available

Oreo developer preview available

No custom ROMs ATM, Treble ROMs have broken critical features such as in call audio and possibly more.

I'm shipping the device for FREE to anyone who:

Is a recognised developer here on XDA

Guarantees they will use the device for development (at least try) and not just sell it on eBay

Is located in the EU, because customs, exceptions possible for really great developers.

How to apply:

Leave a post in this thread with a few short words about your previous work at XDA and what would you like to do with the device, like Kernel development, ROM porting or else.

Is this serious or some kind of sad joke?

If you have doubts in me I can just say that I already shipped a device to Phh in December to help boost Treble development, and tomorrow I'm shipping a Nexus 6 to [MENTION=3383960]Elektroschmock[/MENTION] to help the Nexus 6 development stay alive as Elektro broke their N6 recently.

In case multiple devs apply for the free device I reserve the right to pick one of my personal preference, unfortunately I have only 1 spare phone for 1 dev.

[MENTION=1915408]phhusson[/MENTION] [MENTION=7050182]MishaalRahman[/MENTION] interested or know anyone who is?

To clarify, in case it was not clear, the device goes completely free to a developer, I also pay shipping inside the EU.

If customs charges occur outside the EU I would not cover those.

Shipping with tracking.

To the forum mods:

I didn't really know where to put this, I thought not many devs would see it in the Razer forums, as those are usually only frequented by people who already have a device, feel free to move the thread if you think of a better forum where it belongs.

Well not an RD here but hey tought i might try haha, so here it goes

Im part of LOS team (Currently maintaining hero family of devices (s7 and s7 edge exynos) ) Im doing a bringup of them for oreo Fixed almost all of the bugs expect for GPS after that things can go official for them so ill have to find something to play with anyway, I have experience with AOSP build system so i could at least try to get builds for Razer Phone before any mainstream roms are ready for compiling. I would also probably try to get some fun stuff to work on phone like Kali Linux NetHunter and well i would like to play with treble supported device and razer phone looks as a nice candidate as i could get some rest from exynos
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Exelios:
Well not an RD here but hey tought i might try

Your application is welcome and noted, the RD thing was just a guideline to attract more senior devs, or how to say it.

Hi, Diazz72 here :).

Well where to start...i've joined xda about 6 years ago, stared my first project on old S4 about 4-5 years ago and continued till i've switched to G5...since it i've contributed to S7 and 6P till i switched to iPhone and soon after to S8...Well let me tell ya S8 is nightmare.

So how can i contribute if chosen...well i can bring at least two rom's to this beautiful device ( maybe R.R. and COS...Will see what crowd demands :) ).

If you need any more info send me a PM.

Well in a nutshell, I'm the lead developer for Invictrix and previously DesolationROM. I was the first person to bring nougat to the note 4, my Werewolf kernel for the LG V20, the Nexus 5, the Nexus 7 2013, the Samsung Galaxy Note 4, and the Essential PH-1. I was also one of the early members of Substratum. Also I was the person who reverse engineered the pixel navbar to work on custom roms.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] phhusson:
Well, of course I'm interested in the Razer Phone, though I don't think I'm the one who will give it the most love.

If I get the device, I'd test and fix all GSIs I'll make on it, like AOSP P when sources will be available (I think that if I get a Razer, it will be the first one to get P, since it's A/B and that makes things much easier)

I'd also probably try to get some hardware features to work on GSIs (like porting stock camera if that's relevant, and see what can be done with the 120Hz screen)

But I won't dive too deep, like I won't do any kernel work.

For my overall Treble testing, I think it will definitely be a great device, since I'm lacking an A/B and a Qualcomm test device, which seem to have few specificities.

Fwiw, I've reported some issues to Essential (they even answered once! https://github.com/phhusson/platfor...23ea40b255dfbba5813c29#commitcomment-28321661 ), and I plan to do this as well for Razer, since it looks like their Treble implementation isn't totally ok (though I think it passes Google certification)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Exelios:
Noted :)

Offtopic

since it looks like their Treble implementation isn't totally ok (though I think it passes Google certification)

It's Dev Preview 1, let's see how it goes by the time it's stable, I do expect changes.

since it's A/B and that makes things much easier

I think you are the first person I ever saw post A/B and easier in the same sentence lol hahaha
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Exelios:
Ok so from the 4 interested devs I decided for [MENTION=1915408]phhusson[/MENTION]

Why?

Because even tho he said he won't be specifically focused on this device I believe having fully working Treble ROMs is what will bring the most benefit to this device in the long term, having Treble means having already 5+ available ROMs, including LOS 15.1 and RR, and that number will just grow with time.

"like porting stock camera if that's relevant"

Don't bother, it's crap, rather port Google camera :)

Hi guys sorry for the thread name

Any chance someone can be my lifesaver ?

I need to flash the stock recovery ( odin ) of the french firmware 7.1.1 ( XEF )N950FXXS3BRB2 that was used to get the Oreo OTA at some threads

I have been searching for hours on the web but cant find the file :(

Thanks , I got those files, but I only need the recovery , any tip on how to "extract it" from there ??
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] :
Ah ok I know you can extract the files individually by right clicking on them after installing 7zip.

Edit: I see the recovery file is in the AP file for Snapdragon.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] pvillasuso:
Thanks again for the fast reply ,

I have the international version , the Original AP File has all the system , not just the recovery ( 29mb top ) . I need to flash only the recovery , buy really thanks for the help
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] :
Yes, it's the same for Snapdragon too. After you extract the recovery.img it needs to be converted to .tar file and then flashed with Odin. You might be able to flash the recovery.img with TWRP without converting it. Please confirm this with a fellow TWRP user because I was doing this a couple years ago so this is from memory.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] shouren04:
Yes you can flash .img files with TWRP but I don't see a point in doing this. Flashing the stock recovery.img will replace TWRP. Sounds like the OP wants to stay with stock. But I'm not understanding the point in flashing just the stock recovery & what caused the need to do so, that's not something you hear of being done. Usually you just flash the entire AP in Odin but as said you can create a tar for the recovery image to flash in Odin.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] pvillasuso:
Great tip , I used 7zip to make the .tar file I was looking for .. Life Saver !!!

No twrp for me yet , just odin .. im still in "jail" cause the oem unlock 7 days limitation

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] SmallTarzan:
To be honest, I'd say it's a marketing call. I don't know if you have noticed, but it's been like that for ages now. It gets blurry because zooming too far can't be "sharp", for obvious reasons. It gets shaky because you are pointing at a smaller object in a distance.

[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] Jannomag:
This is a topic you've found if you've searched.

The /data partition is encrypted so you can't access it via TWRP.

You need to use adb sideload or sd card for flashing Magisk via TWRP.

And some hints:

- Flash the correct Magisk, don't use any version which isn't proven to work on P10

- Don't flash Xposed - it will brick your phone!

- Don't flash Viper, Dolby or other DSP - they will brick your phone!

- Look for working tweaks on XDA or Google before you flash them - everything can cause a brick!

And a brick on Huawei means: You probably have to pay for DC Phoenix tool for unbricking your phone.

Hello,

my SD-card is damaged, it can no longer be formatted as internal memory. How can I, if not the data, at least save the SD-card and use it again as internal memory?

I inserted the card with adapter into Windows PC and executed CHKDSK, supposedly there is RAW data on it. Windows Disk Management displays the SD-card 100% error-free, with 16MB and 28.5GB partitions. Windows can't read them either. What could I do to recover data and/or memory?

I cannot connect to the PC via USB debugging (with ADB and MTP). Is there another possibility of SD-card & or data recovery, if I had the exact error code, for example? Anything, anyone?

1st of all, I don't know, how this is related to our device! :/

Anyway, Use an sd card reader and plug it via a usb in pc and see if windows detect it...

if yes, you can format it by windows and then recover the data by any data recovery software...(100% data can never be recovered, or there might be a chance that no data is recovered)

If not then probably you won't be able to recover anything. You can try giving to a shop who recover the data, they might be able to help!

I've found that Linux on a PC can sometimes read USB memory sticks that Windows finds unreadable.

This may apply to SD cards as well, so put your SD card into a PC-accessible card reader and try reading it under Linux.

There are various versions of Linux that don't need to be installed on your hard disk, and can be booted direct from CD or USB stick.

These are referred to as "live" installations.

GParted Live CD or USB stick might be useful for you. (Search for it).

Flashing or upgrading just Radio Rom doesn't require CID unlock,Its not an OS,it doesn't include any IPL/SPL in it,it just upgrades the GSM of the phone,which is not integral part of any Rom (OS)
