I can't give permissions 755 to any files in sdcard, even when I give permissions 755 in recovery mode, it changes to 0770 after I boot to system. what should I do? Please help.....

btw, I haven't changed the file system to f2fs or others. I can give permissions 755 to any files in system folder, but the permissions will change back after I move the file back to sdcard...

Guys I've been looking for the LS993 stock firmware KDZ file for a while, then I got following link with LS993's TOT file rather than any kdz file.

https://www.needrom.com/download/ls993-7-0-tot/

Direct Mega download link: https://mega.nz/#!tFElQJja!rcB__GMVTv1juRSeQ-An5OCnjFubogyelX2BCk0mqh4

pwd: vamed15

After unzip the file, the tot file size is about 6G but is there any way to use this tot file to flash to the stock firmware?

If yes, please provide the instruction on how to flash LS993 firmware by tot file.

It looks like I can't add any app specific shortcut on my home screens.

In Firefox, when I click to add a bookmark to the home screen, nothing happens, no shortcut is created.

And on FB messenger the option to add a chat head shortcut to the homescreen doesn't even show up anywmore.

I tried with stock launcher, lawnchair and Nova, same problem.

Did I miss something?

Btw I just bought that G6 and updated to Oreo right out of the box, so I don't know how it was on Nougat.

[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] jfk999:
I'm installing twrp but whenever i try to boot into twrp all my data is wiped and twrp is unable to mount it

"Could not mount /data and unable to find crypto footer"

I need to manually change the filesystem and then again change to ext4 for twrp to mount data.

Main issue is i want to use snapchat and for that i need to boot into OS, login into snapchat and then root in twrp

but again as soon as i boot into twrp my data partition is not mountable. I have flashed no_encrypt_no_verity.dm_ashyx to disable dm-verity.

Flashed various twrp version from 3.0 to 3.2

Also did a clean OS flash from odin but still no luck.

Any suggestion and help will be appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] jfk999:
Tried that too , same issue still.

It seems that data partition gets corrupted whenever i boot into twrp everytime.

No way out
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] broky:
have you wiped data(TWRP/wipe data/type YES in the keyboard)?

and use superuser for root cause magisk can t mount data at the moment.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] jfk999:
As soon as i boot in twrp, data is not mountable. So I then go to

wipe-->adv wipe-->(select data partition)repair or change partition-->change partition format-->fat

TWRP then wipes it to fat filesytem,then i change it to ext4 (which is readable by OS)

then only data partition is mounted.

Afterwards I flash no-verity-no-encryption_ashyx and RMM patch

Boots normal to OS

Again boot to twrp i get error unable to mount /data

I had this issue in nougat but it used to happen only once.After flashing patch i used to not get this error repeated
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] broky:
Twrp/above factory reset on right side there is an option format data.

Press on this option and a keyboard rises.type YES and select format data.

After this check data partition,should be mounted.

After this flash SU zip and last Ashyx s patch.

Idonel this many times never had a problem even in Orsi.

Hope it works I can t think of something else.

Which twrp version are you using?
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] Bryan48765:
Try...

The universal "no verity opt encrypt".

Magisk for the above, or safetynet evasion.

Backing up snapchat in /data/data/ and /sdcard/Android/data/, and load the backup. By PC or external sdcard, or load the backup later.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] broky:

Tried the universal version for samsung and applied RMM patch, unfortunately same issue again. :(
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] jfk999:
I think that this has to do with SEpolicy. In nougat i used to get a small red warning at the edge of screen while booting to twrp. That time i did not face this

issue. Now I dont get any warning..boots into twrp with data partition corrupted.

I dont know, ive tried everything possible but no luck.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] Pagan_Serpent:
This is how I did and it works on my A320FL:

1. I installed Ashyx's version of TWRP via odin.

2. Boot into TWRP and "Format Data" from "Wipe" menu.

3. Flash SuperSu.

4. Flash Ashyx's patch.

5. Reboot phone(into recovery again).

6. Update TWRP with McFy's version.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] jfk999:
Still no luck...

At this point i have lost hopes
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] moozer:
No matter what you try at this point you're data will always encrypt and will need to be formatted. TWRP will always reset.

This requires a whole different route and needs you to edit system files.

I'll get back to you with details.

---------- Post added at 11:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:39 PM ----------

This method requires intermediate knowledge of Windows and CMD commands....I've tried to simplify it and hope it is easy enough to go through

The files that need editing are the ramdisk fstab files.

Basically you are going to unpack boot.img, edit the files and repack it.

Here's how you do it:

In windows...From the firmware, open the AP file with WinRAR. Extract boot.img.lz4 and save it to your desktop

Go here https://github.com/lz4/lz4/releases/download/v1.8.2/lz4_v1_8_2_win64.zip

Extract it then just place your boot.img.lz4 to directory of lz4

Next open up cmd as admin and cd to the location where lz4.exe is located

In cmd type lz4.exe boot.img.lz4

This will unpack the lz4 file.

Now download http://www.mediafire.com/file/93a3f4bikaxh6tj/MTK_Extractor_V2.6.3.zip

Just open exe go to boot tab select the unpacked boot.img

This will extract the files you need and it will create folder called "initrd" and it will contain the contents of boot.img.

Make sure you have Notepad++ installed to edit the files.

Go to the MTK folder where your files have been extracted

Right click Fatah.goldfish and select open with Notepad++

Next find the phrase ",encryptable=userdata"

Delete it

Close the tab in Notepad++ and click to save

Back to MTK folder and right click fstab.ranchu. Open with Notepad++

Find the phrase ",quota,forceencrypt=/dev/block/vdd"

Delete it

Find the phrase ",encryptable=userdata"

Delete it

Close the tab in Notepad++ and click to save

Back to MTK folder and right click fstab.samsungexynos7880. Open with Notepad++

Find the phrase ",verify"

Delete it

Find the phrase ",forceencrypt=footer,quota"

Delete it.

Close the tab in Notepad++ and click to save

Next, go back to the MTK program and press the repack button

This will create your new boot.img file

Go back to the MTK folder. You should see your old boot.img file saved as "boot-old.img" and your new file as "boot.img"

Install 7-zip

Back to MTK right click your new boot.img. select 7-zip then select "add to archive"

This will open up another window. Simply select "tar" from the dropdown menu for "Archive format"

Press OK

This will create a new file "boot.tar"

Flash this via Odin with phone in Download mode

The boot will now be patched and you can set up TWRP as you need.

This whole process will need repeating if a new AP is flashed

Couldn't you also use Android Image kitchen to unpack and repack your images? Or is this one of the Samsung devices it does not work properly with?

Will try it out today and update you with details...Thnx

( FYI : I am familiar with Android kitchen so I will try to unpack boot image with it.)

Ok..Should I flash in odin at BL or AP? or maybe can I do a normal twrp flash and then flash the boot.img in twrp?

I just received the phone, everything seems to work except for front camera. Back camera works fine but whenever I switch to front camera the app crashes and creates a log. I have tried changing setting for front camera, tried using open camera, checked permission. I don't know what to do. Any help will be appreciated!

Edit:- I have noted that camera setting can detect it as 8MP camera and I can change the setting for front camera, though it does not put any effect on front camera. The front did work for a second,

[Asus ROG Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Deep.01:
Phone seems amazing for gamers. Battery capacity is quite good compared to Black shark. Any guesses for price? In INR and Dollar.
[Asus ROG Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Ace42:
Probably $799 for base model. $899 OR $999 for 8GB/512GB variant.

If Asus can sell the Zenfone 5z for $599 I think $799 is about right for the ROG. Remember, they need to SELL units. No one will buy when the price is significantly higher than the Black Shark's or Razer.
[Asus ROG Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Deep.01:
800$ seems fine. Any idea when it'll be available for pre-order?
[Asus ROG Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] PryvateiDz:
I think it's great for gamers, and anyone else that just wants a dope phone all the way around. MKBHD said about the Razer Phone, "the idea making gaming as good as possible, but as it turns out, a lot of those things also make for, pretty great, everyday use too," and I agree.

---------- Post added at 06:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:15 PM ----------

I feel like the Zenfone 5Z may be $500 or $550, only because they did say it'd be about $500. I think the 256GB model would be around $600 however.

I'm looking at it being between $800 to $999. I have heard that the ROG line is pretty expensive, and I looked it up, and it is. So I do expected it to be towards the later, than the former. But if they can get it at $999 for the 512GB model, it's a sure buy for me. I looked at their official website and it has EVERYTHING. It didn't miss anything I've ever wanted, and I feel like it's a real superphone. It also has the same camera in the 5 and 5z, which was rated very well my DxoMark, and I have checked out real world results, and they were great.

[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] 20degrees:
What do you like the most about the G7?

I'd say for me - the overall form factor. It feels like it's about the right size. You can hold it comfortably and use it with one hand.

The rest is all meat and potatoes for me. Not really any complaints. The phone is basically where LG should've went after the G4 imo.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] Makman20:

Can't really comment on that as I haven't messed with the camera much. I don't really take many pics tbh.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] AhsanU:
The camera, hands down. I absolutely love it, and wish wide angled cameras would be more present in other phones. The only wide angled shots I've taken would make me look like a douche if I were to post 'em, so I won't, but trust me when I say that the cameras make it worth it.

Just wish we had a clean vanilla version of Android instead of LG's UI. I pray for development on this phone soon!
[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] co.ag.2005:
for me, I love the form factor (perfect size IMO) and the haptic feedback. This is the best done haptic feedback I've had on an Android phone in a long time. Getting pretty close to how good iPhone's haptics have been lately. Software has been quick and haven't had many slowdowns. Camera is OK, not P2XL quality or speed but not much out there is. Still a good camera but I haven't put it through its paces yet.
