Fortnite android beta was just released, along with a new skin for note 9 and tab s4 users. Is there any way I can edit my build.prop to let me get that new skin? If not are there any other ways it may be plausible to get the skin. I have root and twrp.
[General Questions and Answers] Raiz:
Since you want to avoid paying for that skin , this is considered as a warez request .

And warez request are forbidden on those forums.

Moreover I don't think that build.prop tweak will work with this game .
[General Questions and Answers] elwiniscool:
When i posted that i didnt really think about it like that, but now that you say it, that would be illegal wouldnt it. In that case ill remove the post. Im not about to pay $1800 for a fortnite skin.

How do i remove the post?
[General Questions and Answers] rafaelloaa:
Counterpoint, per Epic themselves, to get the Galaxy skin you just need to launch your game on a note 9/tab s4. Meaning you'd get the same result by going to a friend's house and borrowing their device.

This vs the 15k vbucks, which is *exclusive* to pre-ordering the device, and bypassing that somehow would be theft.
[General Questions and Answers] Raiz:
Ok , I didn't know the way to get the skin , but that's still the same .

This partnership with Epic game was made to boost sells and pre-orders for the note 9 and the tab s4.

Get this skin without pre-ordering means a loss for Samsung , since the potential buyer will borrow his friends' one and won't be forced to buy a s9/tab s4.

That's my point of view, but thanks for the infos , I don't personally play this game so you may know better than me :svetius:.

You can't do that , only moderators can do that , don't worry for that ;)

Dear all

Device: Pixel C

I am on 8.1.(July) and I want to apply the August security update.

I am rooted with Magisk.

TWRP 3.2.2. installed

Q: how do I flash the August security update without losing data, root/Magisk?

- I assume I just have to download the factory image of August, extract it and flash boot.img, system.img and vendor.img

- Do I lose root and Magisk then?

- Will i keep TWRP in doing so?

- If TWRP is kept, would it be enough to apply the magisk.zip with TWRP again?

tnx for confirmation or any hints!
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rexylian:
Hi all,

I have my 5x back from repair and a want to restore from my old trwp backup. What roadmap do i need to follow?

The phone has a new serialnummer so i expect the board is replaced.

I know how to unlock and install twrp.

Twrp backup is from 7.1.2. New phone is on 8.1.

Possible steps:

1. Unlock bootloader

2. Install factory image 7.1.2

3. Install twrp

4. Push twrp backup from pc to nexus

5. What partitions to restore?
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rp158:
[MENTION=1005745]Rexylian[/MENTION]: if you want to step up to Oreo (recommendable imo), you shouldn't restore Nougat-stuff. So this may be the moment.

Otherwise choose the factory-image which matches to your backup, and restore (boot&)data&system.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rexylian:
[MENTION=5040297]rp158[/MENTION]: Thank for the quick replay.

I copied the twrp backup to my phone. (adb push)

Booted into twrp but i can see the folder in trwp but cant select any partition to restore....

What i'm doing wrong?

NP: I found it already: different serialnumber

twrp looks for a folder named after the serialnumber.

Renaming the folder to the correct serialnumber works....
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rp158:
[MENTION=1005745]Rexylian[/MENTION]: Move your backup to /sdcard. Make any dummy backup to let TWRP create its favourite folder. Move your backup there. Then you should see and be able to choose the dummy and your real backup (the folder names) in TWRP.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rexylian:
[MENTION=5040297]rp158[/MENTION]: thanks for your replies. It's up and running now! So happy :)

The only bump i had was to remove the old password files via twrp...

The reason i downgraded to 7.1.2 was that i could not get safetynet to pass on the latest oreo..
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Flamester:
I tried to update to 5.1.4 of OxygenOS but I'm now stuck on boot circle animation

I have the Universal twrp codeworkx(twrp-3.2.1-0-universal-codeworkx-cheeseburger.img) from here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/cheeseburgerdumplings/files/15.1/cheeseburger/recovery/

I downloaded the image from the official Oneplus website.

Here is what i exactly did:

1. Flashed TWRP

2. Flashed the LineageOS from the TWRP

3. Wiped Dalvik/Cache

But it did not work

So i tried it again with 5.0.4 but no improvement, what should i do?

[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] RICHARD.DREW:
Hi,

Does anyone know whether the Nokia 8 john Lewis sells supports dual sim, or know anywhere else that sells a dual sim supporting model in the UK?

Thanks
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] RICHARD.DREW:
For anyone else looking for a UK Dual Sim model, they're almost impossible to find. The BT Shop lists them at £521 (yes £220 more than most places currently list the single sim :eek: ) but I couldn't find them elsewhere. Plenty of grey imports on Amazon, and ebay has the usual sellers importing the Asian market version from China but trying to pretend they're based elsewhere, with the usual warranty risks. I went with purchasing an EU model from Clove - they're slightly dearer than the UK single sim versions, but not too bad. I'm guessing pressure from UK network providers is why we largely get single sim versions. Probably not a big issue for folks who live and work in one place, but I've yet to find a network provider who offers consistently good data coverage across Kent.

I looked at the 7 plus as an alternative (surprisingly hard to choose between the two) but I think the Nokia 8 still has the edge and Dual Sim versions of the 7 Plus aren't any easier to find in the UK.

[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] MegaBytesMe:
Hi.

I have an Xperia Z5, and I had found out I couldn't unlock my bootloader. So i am thinking about upgrading to a Xperia XZ. Is there anything I should know about the phone? If it overheats etc.

Also, the reason I am getting the upgrade is because I can't unlock my bootloader. Are all the Xperia XZ phones bootloader unlockable? And how would I find out if it could be unlocked before I purchase it?

Many thanks,

-MegaBytesMe

1. Consider buying XZs , it has 4gigs Ram and better processor and slight difference in price!

2. there are LOCKED Z5, LOCKED XZ and LOCKED XZs in market! you need to makesure to buy International versions. at vendor dial *#*#7378423#*#* , this will open service menu , search under configuration " Bootloader unlock allowed: Yes ", if its YES , buy this version

3. both XZ and XZs heats up but still better than Z5. and oreo has better battery life

I used hurupdater to downgrade from 8 to 7. Also, you can use HWOTA. Both methods are not guaranteed if you make a mistake along the way (it can brick your phone or end up with a frp lock - there are always ways to fix those issues though).

Works perfectly, thank you.

Used hurupdater, copied EMUI 5 zip files to SD card, along with hur zip file.

Into TWRP, and installed hur zip file.

Reboot, with inevitable bootloop, so went into stock recovery and did a Reset.

Then booted fine and with adb installed TWRP, Magisk and Xposed again.

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Questions & Answers] ttlee1990:
I flashed my Xiaomi Mix 2S with Android P developer preview verison the second day after I purchased it, because I am a heavy user of Google apps and I like the clean stock Android ROM (used to own three Nexus phones). Now I am aware that Xiaomi won't provide stock Android Pie ROM, I guess I should starting looking for alternatives (which provide security patches constantly).

When I tried the MIUI Chinese version (I am living in China now), I actually liked its gesture (not the one in stock Android version) and full screen features. Stock Android P/Pie leaves a black strip at the bottom for gesture navigation which doesn't look as pretty as MIUI. And MIUI's gesture (slide from anywhere on the screen) is more convenient in my opinion. So I could change to Android-Pie-based MIUI (international version of course because I want to use Google) after Xiaomi releases it. But my biggest concern is, does the international version also collect and upload user's data like the Chinese version? I try to avoid those kind of apps as much as I can (I only install apps from Play Store) and always disable unnecessary permissions in the apps.

Or, is there any other ROMs (hopefully Android Pie based version would be published quickly) which is suitable for Mix 2S's full display?

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Quigley:
For Samsung devices, using Odin (or Heimdal) it is possible to flash the bootloader (BL), main software (Application Processor, AP), the modem/baseband (Communications Processor, CP), and the CSC. Each of them correspond to a different section number. Now, people are often confused how to use these because there are different types of files for flashing. Mainly there can be two types:

- One big tar.md5 file which is Odin compatible, and you only have to select it in one of the section buttons. It seems that you can then selectively choose which partitions you actually want to upgrade. For example you might only flash a new modem/baseband. However, selecting one big file trigger actually does not work and a /data wipe is triggered and I believe all of the phone is flashed. If you want to selectively flash partitions you can delete the respective files from the firmware archive first (which is how modem files offered on the various sites, including XDA are made).

- Different tar.md5 files for each of the sections. Of course, when not selecting one of the files in corresponding sections, that particular partition will be left alone.

Additionally, note that Odin does not wipe /data (when using the standard settings and a regular firmware update, usually stock), so even if you factory reset all partitions, the /data partition may still hold all your downloaded apps and settings. If you used a previous custom ROM before, these are probably not compatible with the full firmware you are flashing with Odin. So after a flash you probably want to either wipe /data (and leave the /data/media folder intact, or format /data, completely erasing all user data.

Maybe it's a good idea to sticky this in order to let people find answers to these basic questions, which may clear up confusions.
