[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] askader:
The above information was clear and helpful, but one query with respect to my case.

I have an Samsung S7 edge (SM-G935FD), i have flashed custom ROM successfully, but due to some reason I need to go back to my Stock ROM and I was able to do successfully.

The question is, seems still my OEM is unlocked even after stock ROM, will the OEM lock will happen automatically after 7 days, or is there any way to lock back manually.

Thanks in Advance
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] ZoiraP:
Samsung doesn´t have fastboot , it uses some kind of own mode only accessible via Odin. I prefer this way.

Also you have Prenormal state , this is some kind of security blocking by Knox, happened to me and had to wait 7 days.

Will appear within 5-7 days since you flashed stock ROM.

Yeah , 7 days, also changing phone date upto 7 days works sometimes. Worked for me few times.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] boullusgoullus:
Hi all,

My Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (SM-G935FD) has broken screen after a drop. The screen is black or flickering with green, but I think that it still reacts to touch. The firmware was upgraded to Oreo stock very recently, and the phone is not password or pattern protected. USB debugging is disabled (it has never been enabled) and the phone is OEM protected, so flashing a custom recovery with ODIN doesn't work (I tried). I'd like to backup the data, and I need to find a way to enable USB debugging for that. I see two options:

- Boot into maintenance mode to activate USB debugging in spite of the black screen, using physical keys. The thing is that I can't seem to boot into maintenance mode with that version of the phone following instructions found online (maybe this maintenance mode is specific to some versions or carriers, or am I missing something here?).

- Blindly activate USB debugging using an external keyboard. To do that, I would greatly appreciate help from one of you to know the exact sequence of keys.

Hope I can get this working!

Thanks ;)

Hello to all. I am a new user and I just received my HTC 8925, bought as an upgrade to my old HTC 8525. I was interested in upgrading my phone's appearance through applications, etc. I have browsed through the related threads, and I am not sure of some of the terminology. ROMs and flashing are a few terms that I'm unsure of. Also I could use some knowledge on how to modify the registry on my phone. Any insight on any of the above would be helpful.

[General Topics] liquidsilver:
ROMS refer to Read Only Memory. This is the software that's resident in the computer when the power is off and usually includes the operating system (Windows Mobile) and a suite of applications selected by your carrier. A portion of the ROM also contains the instructions for running the phone's radio.

Flashing is the process of putting different programs into the ROM.

There is much you can do to change the appearance without resorting to flashing the ROM. I'd recommend working with various launchers and today screen plug ins first. (HTC Home, Ultimate Launcher, etc)

There's a great wiki on the forum that has instructions for flashing if you decide to go that route. There are also links to most of the major applications too.

Cheers!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itsDenis:
Hello everybody. I recently changed my frame + display on my nexus 5 and screen doesn't work. First i saw the backlight but after I tried to put more pressure on orange flex cable that connect it to the morherboard it didn't work anymore. I tried to use an old but working flex cable but nothing changed and I tried also with my old display and frame but nothing still nothing changed. I don't know what to change to make it work again, could that be a motherboard problem? Do anyone of you know what is damaged?

Thank you
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
It could be a screen or motherboard problem.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itsDenis:
if i do change the motherboard would it work again right?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Did you change the flex cable that runs from the USB port to the motherboard? If yes, I think this is for charging and data transfer.

Where did you get the screen? It's possible that the screen or motherboard is defective: with nothing on the screen and the phone making sounds, ringing, etc. indicates a screen problem. Pressing on the cable and getting it to work for a short time indicates a motherboard problem (looses or broken connecting cables or onboard connector).

If you want to isolate the the problem, you would need to test with either a know working motherboard or screen.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] sunNsnow:
The phone (VZ Galaxy S8+) is not rooted and on stock ROM.

The phone is having issues during calls this past week, so I decided to take a look if it has anything to do with the install failure of the July 2018 (that was pulled) update.

I did an OTA update in July 2018, it downloaded... but the install failed.

In going to recovery, I cleared cache > turned off phone > return to recovery > it started to install the update. Then, the screen turned blue and said, "no command".

The recovery message states as follows:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] duda.dudet:
Hello I've bought a secondhand

Samsung Galaxy S6 (refurbished)

It is a Verizon or T-mobile phone (Not sure, don't know US carriers. Model says SM-G920T, must be T-mobile, I suppose... )

Seller claimed it is unlocked for other carriers,

and it is, it works fine with Canadian carriers SIM cards.

But Samsung pay and Samsung Health wouldn't open, saying the phone is ROOTED.

I've downloaded the RootChecker app, and tested the phone, result:

it isn't rooted.

Background info:

Settings -> About Device -> Status -> Device status

Custom

Settings -> About device -> Model Number

SM-G920T

Settings -> About device -> Build number

NRD90M.G920TUVS6FRC1

My Android version is 7.0

Developer options

OEM unlock - yes

I've downloaded and installed Samsung drivers

developer[.]samsung[.]com/galaxy/others/android-usb-driver-for-windows[/url]

Then, found this

desktop[.]firmware[.]mobi/device:411/firmware:15878

Friendly name	Galaxy S6

Model	SM-G920T

Name	zerofltetmo

Device	zerofltetmo

Board	universal7420

Android

- Release	7.0

Display ID	NRD90M.G920TUVS6FRC1

It is precisely what my phone is.

Odin connected the phone and flashed the firmware

Odin says PASS

Device reboots

(NO blue "Pirate" Android screen)

Just Ordinary SAMSUNG screen with

RED writing

Recovery is not Seandroid Enforcing

And device reBoots to normal

I've tested with RootChecker, no root.

Am I missing something? It seemed super easy in the guides and on Youtube.

And it was simple, aside from the fact phone is not rooted in the end... :laugh:

So you make this app now on fdroid? Could there be a way to have it also display all classes not already defined.

Like, 2 options:

1- show classes detected by Exodus signatures

2-

show classes not detected by Exodus signatures

and not com.android.*

and not com.google.*

and not com.firstpartypackage.*

And then a search option

That would be like a way to find new stuff.

Oh, and another complementary tool you might be interested in is called Dexplorer

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dexplorer

I love that you made this. It's raw output and styling gives a feel that "I'm analyzing something" and "wow! Look at all of that crap!"

The only thing I might change on the branding is the icon and name. The only reason I recognized it was because it had Exodus in the name. Maybe 10 other people in the world would make that connection. Just an opinion.

Or give it a snazzy tagline like "The World Famous Zuckerberg NSA Cryptominer Detector- GDPR Edition". That will turn heads.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] yochananmarqos:
ClassyShark3xodus conflicts with PackageInstaller when opening an APK. It asks every time if I want to open with PackageInstaller or ClassyShark3xodus even though I choose Always for PackageInstaller. There are no defaults set for ClassyShark3xodus and defaults are set for PackageInstaller.

I'm using ClassyShark3xodus 1.0-7 from F-Droid on my OnePlus 7 Pro (see sig).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] oF2pks:
For the conflict, it is solely related to manifest intent declaration : https://bitbucket.org/oF2pks/fdroid...oid/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml#lines-34.

Uninstall ClassyShark and try F-Droid safe Stanley app (same process intent) to countercheck your PackageInstaller behaviour.

If you don't have Magisk installed, then it looks like a bug in Oneplus rom: ClassyShark (& Stanley) doesn't use any privileged rights (conversely to PackageInstaller) nor su; I suggest a bug report on Oneplus forum (?).

With Magisk "remounts", it's possible PackageInstaller get loose : give a try to foss GhostCommander to check what happens with [OpenWith] .apk option and PackageInstaller selected.

btw I wish you could post on xda the json of OP7pro from my deviceInfos fdroid app https://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/appfoss-googleserviceframework-gsf-t3849908 ; so I could see OP7pro generics (they are no private infos in the json).

I have uploaded new softened ClassyShark3xodus(202) in post#1 ; normally Oneplus PackageInstaller.apk should use this in manifest:

Following https://cs.android.com/search?q=FLAG_USE_APP_ZYGOTE , such isolated process is documented in frameworks/base/framework-minus-apex/android_common/xref30/srcjars.xref/com/android/internal/R.java as:

/**

* <p>

* @ attr description

* If true, and this is an {@link android.R.attr#isolatedProcess} service, the service

* will be spawned from an Application Zygote, instead of the regular Zygote.

* <p>

* The Application Zygote will first pre-initialize the application's class loader. Then,

* if the application has defined the {@link android.R.attr#zygotePreloadName} attribute,

* the Application Zygote will call into that class to allow it to perform

* application-specific preloads (such as loading a shared library). Therefore,

* spawning from the Application Zygote will typically reduce the service

* launch time and reduce its memory usage. The downside of using this flag

* is that you will have an additional process (the app zygote itself) that

* is taking up memory. Whether actual memory usage is improved therefore strongly

* depends on the number of isolated services that an application starts,

* and how much memory those services save by preloading and sharing memory with

* the app zygote. Therefore, it is recommended to measure memory usage under

I downloaded it from F-droid, and have been

Exodus database new release (eof422)

New soft (no android:scheme="content") build is up in #1st post, Exodus database new release (eof422): 528+34 signatures for 403+31 identified trackers.

Nota: you have to uninstall previous xda debug flavor due to signature change for it, in AndroidStudio (_ArticFox ?).

These are declared permissions in an apk that are missing on your device for both global framework-res.apk (Android) & all other installed apps.

As example, on android11, Playstore (com.android.vending) will miss android.permission.BLUETOOTH_SCAN which only appears in android12/framework-res.apk (like ~17 new others in API level 31)

Some can also miss because of deprecation like android.permission.ACCESS_SUPERUSER.

As for "Permissions: duplicates", be aware the result depends on the active filter: only relevant when Permissions are sorted by Name...

This is for devices with Selinux set to permissive:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/lfye5r/_/gmoi05a

Here's why you should be wary of installing anything that sets SELinux to permissive

An undocumented Android feature allows any arbitrary app to gain root access on a permissive SELinux environment. Read on to know more!

www.xda-developers.com

Since root #su are needed to check Selinux status, I can't anticipate whether it's relevant or not.

Chromium = com.android.chromeorg.chromium is ok, but if you see a non-Google apk with SandboxedProcessService, you should dig about it...
