[Android Head-Units] ItsMurf:
I currently own a AVH2800BS from pioneer, it's really nice has great audio and I have been overall very impressed with it. However, I took my truck into the shop to get a leveling kit and unfortunately I believe my rear view camera cord got tugged on a little too hard and ended up splitting at the male radio connector. This obviously made matters pretty bad and without knowing about the camera having open live cords I shifted into reverse and my audio shut off, I'm assuming the amp blew because the screen still is on and has full functionality just no audio. Anyways, I really enjoyed that head unit but, I'm looking into trying something more advanced with more uses and overall coolness.

Some things I would like to have:

$250, Unfortunately, I do have a price limit. :(

Good Audio, coming from that amazing sounding pioneer, I would like to have another good amp.

Snappy Speeds, is a quad core with 2gb of ram good enough for most general use, or should I upgrade to the octacore with 4gb of ram?

I strongly dislike bulky buttons and knobs, so a flat touch screen with volume up/down buttons would be nice.

Lastly, a 7in screen or larger is a must.

Does anybody have a head unit that somewhat follows these guidelines and could recommend it to me?

Also, I noted it before but, I think I should ask it down here also, is a quad core with 2gb of ram plenty fast enough or should I upgrade to more ram and an octocore?

Thanks,

Murf.

Hello,

Many thanks to all of your for your kind support , so I intend to create a summary of what I did, hoping it could help others !

I had already unlock previsouly my Bootloader (of course, else this topic would not exist) via	Unlock bootloader from Huawei :https://emui.huawei.com/en/unlock_detail

I already had TWRP and Magisk installed and wanted to get the latest official firmware for my P20-PRO-CLT-L29(C432) - > CLT-L29 8.1.0.128(C432).

When intending to update (from my phone), it could not work (I allways boot back to TWRP), upgrade failed.

THANK YOU! THIS WORKED SO PERFECTLY!

Until now, I tried the following:

Back up my data and apps to SD card with EMUI Backup App

Download OTA update (it first downloads the incremental ~100-200MB update) and click install

This doesn't work of course - TWRP tries to execute the update command but dies with error messages

Reboot, try downloading/installing updates again, the downloader then downloads the -FULL update

Extract recovery.img from update.zip>update.app

Flash stock recovery over TWRP

Initiate update again from Update App (System Settings)

Update runs smoothly, but bootloader is locked again afterwards

Restore from backup, flash TWRP again, flash SuperSU again

BUT THIS IS MARVELOUS! :D I will only lose SuperSU and Xposed, and given that HuRUpdater is provided with the correct filenames including TWRP renamed to recovery.img, I will just have to install SuperSU and Xposed again after updating the firmware.

It worked flawlessly with the stock firmware files from update.hicloud.com, and you'll usually find all the links a few hours after the release somewhere on the internet.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Dz_diga:
I have a few questions regarding this method to update :

Do I need to make a new backup using twrp after this update since the system files changed due to the update? (correct if i'm wrong i'm a previous iphone owner this my first android device)

Is the any method to force update 8.0 even it will erase every thing and after that just flash twrp and restore backup (i think all the methods mentioned are complicated for me)

This is a guide how to completely disable Reactivation Lock on SM-G900V in simple steps.

Schematically, we will install Android 4.4.2, bypass Samsung Account login, register a new one and then turn Reactivation Lock OFF.

The phone will be clear after this and ready for any suitable firmware.

1. Download this file: kltevzw_NCG_eLLiKat1_0.zip. It's simply a stock-based 4.4.2 ROM for SafeStrap Recovery.

2. Open kltevzw_NCG_eLLiKat1_0.zip with Windows File Explorer (just click it) and remove this file from it: system\app\SamsungSetupWizard.apk (just navigate to this file, highlite it and hit Del button).

Close Windows File Explorer, the file's size should decrease by about 2 MB.

3. Charge the battery to 50% or above.

4. Download Combination ROM COMBINATION_VZW_FA44_G900VVRU2APA1_VZW2APA1_2572656_REV00_user_mid_noship_MULTI_CERT.tar

5. Download zip-file with apks, attached to this post.

6. Run Odin (suppose, you have it and are familiar with flashing), point it to COMBINATION_VZW_FA44_G900VVRU2APA1_VZW2APA1_2572656_REV00_user_mid_noship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5 in AP slot, boot the phone to Download mode, connect it with a cable, press Start and wait till the flashing process ends. Press Exit, wait till the phone completes boot.

7. Disconnect the cable from the phone and connect again.

8. Extract apks.zip to the Desktop.

9. Copy everything from apks folder on your Desktop to the phone's memory root.

10. Copy your new modyfied kltevzw_NCG_eLLiKat1_0.zip file to the phone's memory root.

11. Disconnect the cable.

12. Press Menu (dotted button) - My Files - All - RootS5.

13. Apex_Launcher.apk - Settings - Unknown Sourches - Ok - Back - Apex_Launcher.apk - Next - Install - Done.

14. BusyBox.apk - Install - Done.

15. Safestrap_KK.apk - Install - Done.

16. tr_v2.apk - Install - Open - make it rain (you should see "You should have root, no reboot required" message) - Back.

17. Superuser.apk - Install - Open - Continue - Normal - Reboot.

18. After reboot in a pop-up window - Apex Launcher - Always - Ok.

19. Menu (dotted button) - BusyBox Free - Grant - close balloon - Install - close balloon - Back.

20. Safestrap - Grant - Agree - Install Recovery - Reboot to recovery.

21. Swipe to Allow modifications - Wipe - Advanced Wipe - Dalvik/Data/Cache - Swipe to Wipe.

22. Back - Back - Back - Install, install kltevzw_NCG_eLLiKat1_0.zip.

23. Reboot System - Do not install.

24. After reboot (8 mins or so) you should see the phone's home screen.

25. Set up a wireless connection or use your SIM-card and internet connection from your provider.

26. Navigate to Settings - Security, find Reactivation Lock and untick it. The phone will ask you for your existing credentials or to register a new Samsung account. Just do it (the second, I guess :) ).

27. Login to your new account and you will be able to untick Reactivation Lock.

28. When it unticked, the phone is clear and ready to accept any suitable firmware.

Will be glad to hear about your success :D

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] swiftbones74:
Is your bootloader unlocked? If you have an unlocked bootloader you can upgrade all the way to pie by flashing a custom ROM. There are lots of tutorials around. The catch is not all g900v's can be unlocked. You need to find out if your phone is able to be bootloader unlocked by checking you cid. First two numbers of cid= 15 and you can have root on custom ROM till android pie (9.0). First two numbers of cid= || no root for you on (6.0) Lollipop and you can only uprated to 6.1

This explains it all, with details and instructions. Good luck!

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] bbsc:
This thread is about completely another thing.

As for you qutestion, generally, you cannot "keep" sm-g900v rooted while upgrading from 5.0 to 6.0.

You will have to root it again on 6.0.

The rest is said by swiftbones74 in his post above.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] buckeyes#1:
yes i started with this my cid is 11 , so i just ill follow these steps , im just trying to figure out what i can do with this phone ? can i still load my own apk's with a non-rooted marshmallow?

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] DanniX01:
Will it work on my G900P? I've tried to get rid of that since I got it but there is not much support for this problem in the sprint variant.

EDIT: IT WORKED!!! The only thing I did different was I flashed the combination rom of my device instead of the one on this post. Also I had to wipe data after kltevzw_NCG_eLLiKat1_0.zip flash because it was crashing a lot and turned the screen black after 30 second. So after I wiped data the process was the same as the post. Thank you so much!!!! I'm running lastest Pie rom now.

I didn't expect to kltevzw_NCG_eLLiKat1_0.zip to work because mine is the Sprint variant but after a data wipe I got no errors, so it may work on similar variants with this problem. Now I'm going to start a thread on the Sprint variant linking to this one.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] bbsc:
Well done.

It worked because the "P" variant bootloader is unlocked, so it was able to boot an alien kernel (from the "V" variant).

If it was locked, you would have to replace the boot.img file inside the kltevzw_NCG_eLLiKat1_0.zip with a native "P" 4.4.2 kernel.

It's important, say, for the "A" variant.

Besides, the alien kernel demanded cache cleaning, that's why you had to wipe data.

And it was the right decision to use a native Combination ROM file.

The rest of the files should work on any SGS5 (Qualcomm-based, at least).

There definitely are other simple methods of removing Samsung Reactivation Lock.

But I do share only this one for personal reasons.

Generally, I consider theft unacceptable.

But this method works for SM-G900 phone only and this phone is cheap enough at present time so I think the sharing is acceptable.

Note: this method is confirmed as working by many other users, so if something doesn’t work for you, check your actions first of all.

wbr.

Mr. C

Worked great for ATT S5 g900a which was very difficult one on google search. I did replace the boot.img file in

kltevzw_NCG_eLLiKat1_0.zip with a native "A" 4.4.2 Kernel that i got off the combination ROM specified for the S5 of g900a. Also step 22a cache cleaning data was required as mentioned by users. I was able to unlock it and most important create a new samsung account to bypass the old "processing failed" I am now on 6.0.1 :o

First of all bro this is not thefted device and second thing could u pls tell me in which binary or android version i can disable this Samsung reactivation lock

Its need some particular binary ?

Pls reply
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] bbsc:
I did not mean and did not say that, of course.

If I understand correctly, you can disable RA lock in 4.4.2

But there are two moments:

1. The phone may block downgrading attempt if you use Odin.

2. You will have to bypass Samsung Setup Wizard.

In fact, my guide describes how to get around these problems :D
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] signupstuffid:
What firmware was your 900A on before you flashed to 4.4.2?

I'm on the latest 6.0 firmware, and as far as I have read, if you attempt flashing back to previous firmwares on the 900A, you will brick it. The only exception was the first lollipop 5.1 ROM flashing back to Kitkat. After that there was an efuse blown to prevent that.

I don't see where your guide shows how to get around these problems, could you be specific?

I have flashed all my samsung phones with Odin over the years, and have quite a few VZW BL unlocked Note 4s, and S5s.

I only in this thread, because someone is claiming to have fixed an ATT 900A Samsung FRPed with this method, and I'd like to know how that was possible as I have one such device.

Thanks
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] bbsc:
SM-G900 cannot be "FRPed", it can only have Samsung Reactivation Lock ON.

The answer is: "Yes, it's possible", G900A can be unlocked with this method.

You will need a Combination firmware for G900A, a stock 4.4.2 kernel for G900A and a stock firmware for G900A (to flash after unlock).
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] signupstuffid:
Thanks for replying. Not as many people care about 900A since it was never bootloader unlockable.

Ok, so this combination firmware that is 4.4.2 Kernel based can be flashed over a phone with 6.0 firmware, or is this like the firmware used to bootloader unlock the 900V that has is a hybrid of Lollipop and marshmallow? From all other accounts I've read they said this will brick the device.

I gotta figure out which Combination firmware to use, as I have found quite a few already, but some were only the normal firmware when I looked at them in more detail after downloading them.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] bbsc:
G900V has a locked bootloader too and this thread does not assume unlocking it.

I think you need COMBINATION_ATT_FA44_G900AUCU4AOF1_ATT4AOF1.

And G900AUCS4DQC1.

And some 4.4.2 kernel.

Need help with my Samsung SM-G900V - Custom Binary blocked by Reactivation Lock.

Hello everybody

i try to do this in my Samsung SM-G900V:

1. Download and unzip this file: EMMC_15_Root_Bootloader_Unlock S5_QB2_PB1.zip

2. Reboot the phone to Download Mode (Pwr +Vol Dwn+Home)

3. Use Odin 3.12 and load the "COMBINATION_VZW_FA44_G900VVRU2APA1_VZW2APA1_25726 56_REV00_user_mid_noship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5"firmware in the AP Slot

4. Flash and let the phone process the file. It will reboot twice and you should be dropped into Android within a minute and a half.

5. Copy the following files to your phone:

"RootS5" Folder and "EMMC_15_SafeStrap_QA1_6_0_1_MM_Bootloader_Unlock_ AIO.zip",

and EMMC_15_VZW_QB2_STOCK_MAGISK_ROOT.zip

6. Use the File Manager (you can find it in the app drawer) to install Superuser.apk, Busybox.apk, tr_v2.apk, and SafeStrapKK.apk . Do not open anything yet.

7. Open towelroot and click "MAKE IT RAIN". It should tell you you have succeeded. Otherwise, reboot and try again.

8. Now open SuperSU and click "New User" to install it.

Once done, open SuperSU and update the SU binaries using the "NORMAL" method. It will tell you you need to reboot, but you can skip that. (If the Superuser install hangs for more than 5 minutes reboot phone and try to install it again.)

9. Now open the BusyBox app, grant SuperSU access and install BusyBox.

10. Now open SafeStrap, grant SuperSu access and click "install recovery". If the SafeStrap recovery fails to install, make sure BusyBox is installed by rerunning the BusyBox app (it will tell you if BusyBox is installed). If its not installed, click "install" again, reboot the phone, re-open SafeStrap and try to install recovery again

11. Once SafeStrap Recovery is installed click "reboot to SafeStrap Recovery".

12. Once in SafeStrap Recovery choose install and select EMMC_15_SafeStrap_QB2_6_0_1_MM_Bootloader_Unlock_A IO.zip

13. Install the zip. The phone will power off. Reboot the phone to TWRP Recovery with Pwr+VolUp+Home

14. You will now have an Unlocked Bootloader and TWRP recovery Installed. Now whoose Wipe > Advanced Wipe. Select Dalvik Cache; Data; System; Cache, and swipe the swipe to wipe bar. When done, click the back button, click Install, and choose:

EMMC_15_VZW_QB2_STOCK_MAGISK_ROOT.zip

You're done! You will have stock rooted Marshmallow QB2 Build installed with an unlocked bootloader and custom recovery.

I made all the steps ok from 1 to 12 but when i try to the step 13 my phone dont reboot anymore i only have access to Download mode.

When i press power only can see this error msg:
