[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sanctitude888:
I've just found out this link which is about getting root and unlocking bootloader unofficially on LG V20 for particular variants using dirty santa

https://highonandroid.com/android-root/how-to-root-lg-v20-attsprintverizonkorean/

Wonder if this is applicable on V10, that being said most us probably no longer has V10 so frankly no expectation on my part.

I can not seem to find this issue elsewhere.

The skinny is when I open explorer nothing loads. It says connecting when you put in an address. Then nothing.

After I reset it works fine for a while. This is the same when my gps is trying to update every week.

What is weird is the Push function of my email continues to work fine. I am not sure what the issue is. Please point me in the right direction.

Thanks,

BJ

try making your homepage something that is on the net, not a local html file. (which is default) Then see what happens when you open PIE. Also have you changed where PIE stores the temp internet info?

Hi,

using Android-Auto in my next car, I don´t want taking my phone out of my Pocket to use it via USB-cable. :(:(

So, is there a tool to connect Sony Z3c wireless (WLAN or BT) to Android-Auto?
[Android Auto General] LLStarks:
No. Unless you have a Nexus/Pixel and a head unit that explicitly supports it (no cars have this and very few aftermarket ones currently do), there is no way to do wireless.

People are working on solutions using Android sticks as a middleman, but these are hacky and far from ideal.

This is just my guide for updating. i wrote it down because i tend to forget how i did things when i want to do it again.

i am no expert. there could be better ways to do it.

Update after twrp

This includes a factory reset.

Root, TWRP and all your DATA is gone after this.

Do a backup before you do this!!!

1.

Activate usb debugging

Power off the phone completely.

Press and hold the Volume Up and Power button to enter Fastboot mode.

2. fastboot flash recovery stockrecovery.img

3. boot into recovery (volume down+power)

install from SD: UL-ASUS_Z01KD_1-WW-14.1064.1711.96-user.zip

4. start system.

Factory reset

than shut down.

5. boot into recovery (volume down+power)

install from SD: latest update

Does anyone know the current procedure for updating the ROM stock via TWRP. It looks like we should download the full updated firmware and the Magisk. Restart on TWRP, and flash the ROM and then the Magisk, one by one. Can anyone confirm?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Alguém sabe o procedimento atual para atualizar a stock ROm via TWRP. Parece que devemos baixar o firmware atualizado completo e o Magisk. Reiniciar na TWRP, e flashear a ROM atulizada e depois o Magisk, um por um. Alguém pode confirmar?

You just answered your own question. That's how it's always been done, doesn't matter whether you got a ASUS Zenphone or a Galaxy S phone from Samsung for that matter.
[Asus Zenfone 4 (2017) Guides, News, & Discussion] badvag:
I do not know the procedure for updating the ROM by TWRP, do you know? Can you tell me more details?

I want to say that in the normal way I know how to do it, but I'm still not sure how to update the ROM via TWRP without losing Magisk and Xoosed (if you're using it)
[Asus Zenfone 4 (2017) Guides, News, & Discussion] urbanman2004:
I use Magisk, but not Xposed. These instructions are based on the assumption that the bootloader is unlocked, and that TWRP is already installed on your device, and that the Rom in question has already been copied to a USB Stick via OTG cable:

01.	Boot into Recovery Mode (hold down Volume Down + Power Buttons)

02.	Always make a [Nandroid] backup (via USB-OTG, saving data on USB Stick preferably) when going from one Rom to another; Save separate important data (texts, call logs, documents)/apps prior to Rom Install using backup utility apps, e.g., Titanium Backup.

03.	Sideload your Rom (via USB-OTG, copied onto USB Stick preferably)

04.	Hit WIPE – Do a Factory Reset: Wipe Data /Cache/ Dalvik. Hit Back

05.	Hit MOUNT – Mount USB-OTG. Select the storage device. Hit Back

06.	Hit INSTALL – Browse for the Rom (zip file). Install Rom

07.	Remember to Flash Google Apps

08.	REBOOT the System

09.	Complete the startup wizard and give the phone a 10 to 15 minutes before the next step.

10.	Now reboot into Recovery and flash any mods/theme or kernel compatible with your new ROM.

a.	Remember to 'wipe cache/dalvik' after flashing kernel​
[Asus Zenfone 4 (2017) Guides, News, & Discussion] badvag:
That way I would lose the Magisk, XPosed and phone settings. When flashing the original ROM, it will overwrite custom recovery (TWRP). I would like to know a way to update the original ROM without losing anything, understand? It is possible?

Did you not just read what I took the time to write? If not, you're on your own
[Asus Zenfone 4 (2017) Guides, News, & Discussion] badvag:
I read, I should not have understood. Does the procedure you passed do not lose the settings and root (Magisk)?
[Asus Zenfone 4 (2017) Guides, News, & Discussion] urbanman2004:
I can tell English is not your native language. If you notice under instruction #2:

That implies that your settings will not be saved, and refers you to other means to backup/restore them; a) creating a Nandroid backup within TWRP will backup the OS/Rom (and installed apk's) but no settings, data, files, etc., b) Titanium Backup does a number of things, if not all of what you inquired a/b. I would highly implore you do your research and due diligence before plunging into something blindly that you're not well-versed in which seems to be the case here. Just b/c I mentioned here what is it that I would do in your situation doesn't mean it works best based on your use case scenario. Hope that provides you more, and better clarity.
[Asus Zenfone 4 (2017) Guides, News, & Discussion] badvag:
Of course, English is not my native language.

But I had read, I really did not have much practice in doing this by Titanium backup and recovering these settings. My initial question was: Is there any way to flash the updated ROM without losing anything? I realized that there isn't.

[Asus Zenfone 4 (2017) Guides, News, & Discussion] badvag:
I'm coming back here to explain how to update the ROM stock using TWRP and the Asus Flash Tool.

Some guys who are experts say it does not work, but there are videos on Youtube showing that it is possible to do the firmware flash directly through TWRP, I did not do it because of the risk of the softbrick.

These are the videos:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HebmIzuAfS0&t=194s

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thEDEvA5UUs

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nzBQz1x4xfg

It may also be possible for "adb sideload xxxx" in the sideload option of TWRP (use TWRP version 3.2.3, which is hard to find on the internet), I have not tested it.

In my procedure the TWRP will be lost:

1) Download RAW firmware ZE554KL

2) Install ASUS Flash Tool (in version v2.0.1 does not seem to work), I used version v1.0.0.45.

3) Now, with your phone turned on and your debug mode enabled.

4) Open ASUS Flash Tool ((it does not matter if the model of the device is not listed)

5) Select the RAW firmware you've downloaded.

6) Click on the Serial Number of your device.

7) Click Start. I do not remember, but I think now the phone starts with TWRP or you start custom recovery and then put it in FASTBOOT mode (if you do this before Asus FlashTool will not recognize the device).

8)Start the process on the start button (I can not remember if it has to start again), and then the RAW firmware will start to be copied. The phone will reboot again through TWRP, do nothing until the process is finished (check for TWRP and Asus Flash Tool), then just start the device. Recovery will be back to normal and the device will have the firmware updated.

*I could not attach twrp3.2.3 and Asus Flash Tool (v1.0.0.45) because of the size of the files.

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] mix2s-__-:
Hello!

I was disappointed about some missing features in MIUI ( unable to unlock by bluetooth by not Xiaomi devices, no reliable notification LED,.. ) so I decided to flash Android P ( I know, it´s beta, but it´s AOSP ) by using the Xiaomi Flash Tool. I left the button at 'clean and lock', because I don´t wanted to go back in the near future - and this was a big mistake! The tool shown after flashing 'successful', but since then the Mix2s shows 'system destroyed - push power button to switch off' on booting. I get access by fastboot, but the bootloader is now locked....

I´ve tried to get access by deepflash, but the problem is, that if I connect it to USB the phone switches on and shows the mentined message - again and again. I´m not able to switch it off, to get the connection by qualcomm drivers to USB. I tried to push and hold the power button very long, push all buttons together and so on...

Has anyone an advice or can tell me about testpoints of the Mix2s ( if it has? )

When in edl mode, only nop and sig tags can be recevied before authentication.

Thanks!

Hey guys,

Back in the days when I had my HTC m7 and OP3T.

I saw some threads that people flashed 2 roms on 1 device.

Maybe like old windows that u can pick whichever u wanna boot from when u start the phone.

Is there a way I can do that on my Oneplus 6 ?

I want to flash the Android DP3 rom on a "second" slot for example (I am really curious about it)
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Hitman478™:
You can try to flash a rom on slot A and another on B (i did not try this method) but you can't flash oos and P dp3 because oos is encrypted and beta dp3 is decrypted
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] iElvis:
Not going to work, even with OOS roms.

The A/B system is designed for seamless updates, not completely separate OSs. Not all partitions are duplicated. The two slots share some things that will cause conflicts.

is there a different way then? i've definitely seen some people do it smh O.o
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] matze19999:

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] iElvis:
Didn't past dual boot methods use the recovery partition and a modified twrp? That's not going to work on an A/B phone since there is no recovery partition anymore.

Maybe you could hack A/B to create truly separate slots, but I'm not aware of anyone doing it.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PwncakeIronfarts:
I've read the guides on how to root FireTVs, and am fairly confident in doing so (I've tinkered with rooting phones for years, and the process seems pretty similar). My question is, how would you ADB to the FireTV?

I recently purchased one during Prime Day, and already hate FireOS (no cast? On a smart TV? Really?), to the point that I'm considering using an HDMI port for my SHIELD TV and using it instead of FireOS.

Has anyone successfully rooted a Fire TV Edition Television? If so, how'd you accomplish ADB? I've tried searching here and on Google (using keywords like television and Toshiba), but it's hard to differentiate between the Fire TV box and the actual TV.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imjimbob:
I have a Toshiba fireTV too, and I would also like to know if there are any root options available. I may try Magisck root, but for that I would need to back up the stock image for the TV in case anything goes wrong. On top of that, I am pretty sure that this method would erase all apps and settings, if it works at all. If I figure anything out with this, I will let you know.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Michajin:
I don't believe there is anyway to currently root any of the fire tv devices. You can sideload apps through adb though. Turn on adb debugging and sideload through network. A nice easy program is adbLink. You can cast through a app called AirScreen.

My Toshiba Fire Tv stopped working the other day. At power on, it won't go past the boot screen "Toshiba Fire Tv Edition".

I found that if you hold the power button and plug the tv in, wait until you see the boot screen, let go of the power button, you find yourself at the android recovery menu where you can wipe cache, restore factory defaults, update from usb, reboot, etc. (none of which worked to get my tv working again)

Thanks, it works for me, my Toshiba fire edition tv was stuck on fire stick screen (rebooting every 10 seconds), I tried to fast boot but I had ADB debugging off, so I tried this method and it work perfectly:

-hold the power button and plug the tv in, wait until you see the boot screen, let go of the power button, you find yourself at the android recovery menu where you can wipe cache, restore factory defaults, update from usb, reboot, etc.

-I selected wipe/restored factory defaults and then selected reboot and thats it , the tv reboot like the first time

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonycgb2:
All firetv boards can be rooted except the 4k boards as the mtk board is not exploitable.

Shorting the clk point works the same on the tv's difference is you have to open the tv and the firetv board is located near the power supply as far as toshiba goes.

It takes more risk and requires a rub end tool or even speaker wire with the jacket still on the wire (not bare wire).

Its safe to short like all the other boards, but the risk is if you arc or touch a spot on the power supply you can die lol.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bmichael74:
What exactly are you saying? I've never rooted a television set. Are you emplying I would have to open up the television and short out one of the boards? Please explain because I'd like to root mine and you say just about any of them can be rooted but all I'm seeing is something about not electrocuting yourself in the process. Lol. So how do you recommend I root my Toshiba fire television and should I have the fire department parked out front in case it lights both me and the house on ?. In all seriousness I would like some advice to root my tv.

You can use an ad blocker app from F-Droid (i.e. Blokada, AdGuard, DNS66).
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Michajin:
When the fireTV television first came out , root was available. But most developers stayed away from it because of the risk of bricking a TV and didn't want to bear the responsibility if people messed it up. Just opening it up and shorting something will not give you root. What they are referring to is fire sticks and fire tablets that require shorting to get into the bootroms of the device. The shorting just gives you access to the partitions that had a exploit to unlock the device.

That being said, the device would have to be a mediatek processor, you would have to get access to the bootrom and someone would have to find an exploit in the bootrom (no one is working on it) for unlocking.

If you are interested in rooting, and you have a mediatek processor , you can try the rapid temp root here.

https://xdaforums.com/android/development/amazing-temp-root-mediatek-armv8-t3922213

Another option would be to buy a fire stick and root it. This would reduce risk of destroying a TV. I have seen stories of bricking these TV's just trying to install the google play store. I would definitely consider going with a external device for rooting considering the risks...
