Hi;

I am currently using Redmi note 4 running on dot os 2.4 and kernel as francokernal. I need to root the rom. I tried magisk and ended it on a bootloop issue.

So is there any way to root??

Anyone please help me??
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Ultimate_Android:
Try the latest Magisk 16.7 with a treble-compatible recovery.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Ultimate_Android:
No clue about that. I'm on unofficial LineageOS 15.1 with Magisk 16.7. Seems to work fine without issues. It should work on dotOS then. But be sure you're on a treble compatible recovery.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] MyNameIsRage:
Use older magisk

Hello, I'm using DotOS 2.4 with Magisk working fine, Just install the official Magisk beta 16.7 thats 100% mido compatible now and you will be fine, but for what i read in the DotOS thread better install it AFTER booting DotOS for the first time.

Are there any solutions to get on some hidden things to edit the EFS in CustomROMs? OxygenOS has build in Engineering tools for this (for example *#801# or *#800#).

Please give me some noob friendly guide if possible

My model number is E6653

Kernel 3.10.84-pref blah blah blah

android 7.1.1

I was going to do this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdhAPeTJK6Y

was doing this okay without unlocking bootloader?

I was wondering if i had done this what could have come?
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YasuHamed:
how did you find out that your BOOTLOADER unlock is NOT allowed?

anways if your device's bootload cannot be unlocked then you cannot do anything! :(

however there is only one solution! , DOWNGRADE YOUR DEVICE TO ANDROID 5.1.1 ( use flashtool > Xperifirm > 2015 device z5(samuri)--take firmware "service Exchange Unit" form list(thats android 5.1.1) on which z5 was actually left SONY FACTORY)

once your downloaded firmware, close xperifirm and FLASHTOOL automatically trigger making ftf file for you ,

flash this firmware and TRY ROOTING it with KINGROOT or KINGOROOT , as ANDROID5.x.x had xploits and kingroot and root it.

now you have z5 device ROOTED (LOCKED BOOTLOADER).

and if even KINGROOT have no strategy then I don't have any other options for you :(
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] balrajs99:

I did same
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicholes:
That means by downgrade firmware I can root my device, but no surety for that. And no custom rom also.

I bought a second hand device. Now I am planing to sell it

Thanks for the reply.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YasuHamed:
all the best, if you wana stick to Xperia Line then I would suggest for you

XZs or XZP

make sure you check the boot unlock status on display pieces, XZs can be rooted after boot is unlocked where XZP , you must buy $20 utility and run it for every update.

BOTH DEVICES , DRMKEYS cannot be BACKED UP :( :( :(

for z5, til XZ, drm keys can backed up!
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zapkhiell:
i have Z5 Docomo AU model SOV32, and i want to custom rom mine, but when i check the Bootloader Status is "No".

So i can't do custom rom it ??

or any tips or way?, to do unlock the bootloader so i can do custom rom.

thanks before, and sorry for my bad english.

any answer for this noob question , many thanks. :)
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicholes:
No, you cannot install custom ROM on that device . next time when you buy xperia device check Bootloader Status before hand.

No tips, No way. (so said)

[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] 3-style:
Hi Everybody,

I just aquired a P20 Pro and it's really amazing.

I really like the search bar, I think it is called the "global search" --> when you swipe down on the home screen you can search for almost everything o your phone, from calendar event to contacts and apps.

I am using Nova Launcher since years and I'd like to also be able to use this global search function with it, through the Nova gesture. But I looked for hours and I can't find the "shortcut" / "activity" to do so... Can someone help me and tell me where to find it?

Many thanks in advance!

[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] fredriks:
Activity/shortcut for the &quot;global search&quot; bar to use it with Nova Launcher

Sorry I can't help you but I'm looking for the same thing. Whas using Huawei home for I while and now I use Nova, miss that global search bar.... Hope someone knows how to get it in Nova too
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] orangecroc:
It's unlikely to be possible due to it being a launcher specific function of EMUI.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] 3-style:
In the meantime I can advise you sesame app which is not that bad...

I am sure there should be a way to trigger it the same way the swipe down triggers it in the stock launcher.. I remember having done kinda the same thing on my old HTC one --> triggering the stock launcher news feed page with a nova shortcut/activity so that's why I guess should be also possible here..

Hope someone has the answer ;)
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] side_flip15:
Yes, sesame shortcut plugin does the same thing.

Been using LOS for almost 2 years and been flawless. After updating a week or so ago to lineage-15.1-20180717 my phone stored contacts disappeared. I updated again on the 24th hoping for a fix but no change. I have my Google stored apps but no phone stored apps and there is no option for phone contacts now in the Contacts app.

It's like the option was completely removed.

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] shokod:
Hello there! I posted in the N00B thread without any success and so am casting a wider net:

I have a rooted phone that's been working well for about 1.5 yrs and all of a sudden it's not able to connect to the computer via USB. It was working fine til about 3 months ago, no new apps or changes to the system as far as I know. It still charges when connecting to the computer but I don't get the prompt to choose the USB mode and the computer doesn't recognize it as any sort of device. I've tried it on several computers that have recognized it in the past without luck (drivers up to date) and have tried different USB cords.

I've gone to USB and developer settings and changed and restored default settings for USB connection as well as toggled a bunch of other settings in that section.

I've wiped the Cache and Davlik Cache several times.

I cleaned out the physical port. Any other thoughts? thanks!
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] gdp1979:
If you are on windows 10 PC, the latest windows updates could be an issue. I faced the same issue with my computer. After rolling back windows update (or may be resetting the PC to default settings) has helped resolve my issue and i could connect my phone again normally. It is nothing to do with your phone as far as i know.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Tel864:
You said the drivers were up to date but you didn't say whether you tried completely uninstalling the drivers. If you didn't, uninstall every driver you can find related to the Honor, reboot and plug the phone back in. I'm running the absolute latest version of Windows 10 and have no problem connecting my wife's Honor 8.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] shokod:
Thanks for your suggestion - I did try rolling back the update without benefit. Also, to reiterate - this is not being recognized by several computers (including a Mac) and that leads me to believe that it's the phone that's the source of the issue. I don't even get the USB menu (Charging, MTP transfer, debug mode, etc) when I plug it into several different computers.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] shokod:
Thanks for your reply- I uninstalled all the drivers and still nothing when I plug the phone in, after a reboot.

It may be too obvious but did you try another USB cable? If it's not the cable try this with the default dialer *#*#2846579#*#* then select in background>usb hisuite, connect the cable and see what happens.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] shokod:
I have tried different cables but no suggestion is too obvious! My sister in law actually also has an Honor 8 and her cable on my laptop is recognized, so that's what I've been using to troubleshoot with my phone. I did go into that menu you suggested and I tried toggling HiSuite, Manufacture, and Google and exit the menu and still nothing when I connect the cable (other than charging). Thanks
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Tel864:
Have you played with any of the developer options like USB Debugging or USB configuration...... Nevermind, just re-read your original post. I was almost sure the dialer thing would fix it but if a reset won't I'm at a loss. I still don't think that it's a hardware problem but I guess it could be. There are things like wiping the cache partition that I see some folks have used for various problems. That would be an option that wouldn't affect your apps.

[Alcatel 1X Questions & Answers] danzigism:
Good day all, I purchased one of these cheapo Alcatel 1X models in hopes of doing some testing with MDM and Intune policies. Of course after receiving the device and exploring what little Android Go (Stripped down Oreo) had to offer, I quickly realized that these things right out of the box are not good for any type of corporate environment.

With Office 365 in particular, I cannot seem to even add a regular Mail account to connect to Office 365 services. Autodiscover does not work and even manually configuring Office 365 settings does not work either. It constantly fails with an Incorrect Login/Password message. Despite using the proper formatting of DOMAIN\Username and the old recommended Office 365 manual configuration steps.

Long story short, Android Go sucks for anything other than a grandma wanting a cheap smartphone.

I'd be very curious to see what a Vanilla Android ROM with Nougat could do for this device. At least in hopes of correcting any issues with ActiveSync/Office 365/Exchange connections. It could make for a very cheap sandbox style device for companies that are learning more about deploying device policies in a MDM environment.
[Alcatel 1X Questions & Answers] LgPWN'd:
TRY A GSI

try an Arm_A_only gsi image... it definitely is better than android GO

and after modifying the build.prop file to more closely match the one that came in the stock system.img the device seems to smooth out.

Got a M5 8.4 WiFi on Amazon's Prime Day last week. Needed to use 2 Facebook accounts with chat. I know Huawei has the App Twin feature but it does not clone FBM Lite (do not wish to use FBM standard due to the bloat). Had been using Parallel Space on my ZTE Axon 7 for a while so tried installing it. However it says it is not compatible on Playstore? Is this because of the OS (EMUI) or CPU (non Snapdragon) does anyone know? Is there a workaround to get it installed (maybe direct apk installation)?

NOTE: Not going to unlock bootloader or root the device due to a very bad experience in the past.

So I would now go to android 8, surely LineageOS or EMUI8 I do not know yet.

So, do I really need to rebrand my phone for project treble?

Some links say no, some Rom allow activating treble, and other links say that you have to go through the official Rom EMUI8

I have to use EMUI recovery or TWRP?

Where can I find EMUI8 for Huawei?

How do I unlock my boot loader?

because the links I found his death ...

It was a lot easier on Xperai: D

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] willcor:
Your issues with Play store, reminds me of 2 x similar incidents, i had with my old Note devices.

Think it was Note 3 and my Note 4. Not sure.

Unfortunately It was a few years back!

eg.

When i tried to download, an apps update etc and

app size was eg 2mb or 5 mb.. etc I struggled to download.Very frustrating!

Eventually after a week or 2, maybe 3.

i was able to pinpoint

the the "suspect"

(Unfortunately i cannot remember clearly ,

but it was either, that i had sideloaded

wrong updated version of Play services apk

(Cleaning Play services cache did not help.)

or it was an Xposed /Xposed model.

(So phone was also rooted)

Anyway ,

i then decided to factory reset and Playstore

was working fine again.

Bottom line is

you can either look for the "suspect"?

causing this.

( I know there was a few threads about similar issues with Playstore, on XDA... way back then ! )

or save yourself from the frustration it's causing?

and try a "clean" Factory reset.!

Good luck
