[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] nostromo12:
This has nothing to do with banking apps. Normally a NFC Tag uses some bytes only to describe a command. But in this case a lot of strings have to be operated by NFC. Therefore a special feature the "Extended length" is needed. The NFC chip must support it. Our S7 can handle it, because its one of the phones released for operation with the identity card. But of course the ROM must also support it. There should be some HAL that is missing in the moment.

Hello,

Need following software that I could not find:

1. Call conversation recorder (tried Resco won't work properly - almost impossible to hear the person you are talking with, I suppose it uses microphone to record, isn't there any internal way to do it?)

2. ****list software to block calls and messages from unwanted numbers.

My machine is HTC Touch Cruise, Windows Mobile 6.0 Pro

Much obliged in advance for any clues.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] juiceppc:
Oooooh exotic! Haha.

Use "Call Firewall" (search google) for blocking calls. For recording calls you are most likely out of luck on Pocket PC. Haven't seen a good one come across the forum yet. Anyone care to prove me wrong?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Azimuth21:
Resco Audio Recorder automatically records phone calls (I remember because I didn't know it was on, so I filled up my storage with phone recordings).

However, it is quiet because on most WinMo hardware, you can't record incoming voice. It's quiet because it's recording from the mic (where you talk into), which I guess picks up a bit of sound from the speaker (where you listen when you talk). Maybe try talking on speakerphone all the time? Haha, I'm sure that won't work in a business setting, but it's something.

It's like on your computer hard drive, the OS takes some space. Those 10G is the space taken by Android OS and the space it needs to run, so this is 100% normal. And every phone has space "eaten" by OS, the size on the box is always the total space installed on the device, never the usable space by the user (and there should be small prints somewhere mentioning this).

I dont take responsibility for possible damages!​

'

1. When you unlock the bootloader, all your data will be erased!

2. When you try to lock the bootloader, your data will be erased and you will lose the API.

3. YOU CAN RECEIVE OTA UPDATES WITH THE BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED!
​

Download the tool: https://xdaforums.com/mi-a2/how-to/mi-a2-toolkit-unlock-bootloader-root-t3834585

1. Unlock the bootloader (I will not go into detail, the tool is intuitive, follow the tool's instructions!.)

2. Start your phone and enable USB debugging.

3. Put your cellphone in Fastboot.

4. In the tool, use option 4 (This will not install TWRP, just start) (follow the tool's instructions!)

5. When entering TWRP, if prompted, check "Keep system read only".

6. Open in the tool folder "Open CMD here"

7. Run the command: adb shell

8. Now enter the following command: "setprop persist.camera.HAL3.enabled 1" without quotation marks, and enter. - This command enables the required core API for GCAM.

9. Now type "exit" to exit adb.

10. Go back to the phone, in TWRP -> Reboot -> System -> Do Not Install

Ready.

I did this tutorial quickly. Any questions, use the comments!

Hey guys i have some doubts.

I saw many threads saying to flash twrp into a partition (A or B) but i don't get why we have to flash it... So can someone clarify for me some stuff?

1 - fastboot boot twrp.img

I don't recall where the persist properties are stored but i believe it's not a partition that the OEM or google will constantly modify, right? So why making changes to the persist props in TWRP doesn't make it persist when booting into system? Is it possible to make it store it not temp?

Why there are people saying that flashing TWRP into, eg. part A, and booting into it, and then changing to part B, is working to enable the camera2 API? This should be the same as fastboot boot TWRP and then reboot it.

2 - As far as i remember, su permissions might be allowed in boot.img (.props file), so i thought that magisk patched image would have some su privilegies, but after booting from a patched image, su doesn't return anything. Does anyone knows what is the patched image from magisk? I heard about an app showing up after booting, so the patch is just a runnable with root?

3 - I also saw many threads changing sys build.prop directly. Horrible choice, but, does anyone knows if it possible to have a build.prop in OEM partition? From what i know, the build.prop will be concat. from all the folders related to the booting process. Has anyone tried to throw a build.prop into OEM with the persist enable? I believe that, since the folder is related to OEM only, and since we have no OEM making apps or whatever in an Android One phone, i think it is more safe than other partitions
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] AsItLies:
If you did a search on that 'persist' command, you'd find that it does persist, to many of the tables that type of information is stored in. It does not change the info in the properties file in 'System'. It does change the 'Data' partition, but that's okay, as there's only 1 of those (used no matters which slot boots up). The reason for booting on the non-active partition is a twrp / dual slot phone type of thing. I know it works as I've done it, but the 'setprop persist' changes the one and only Data partition, which both slots use, that's why it works.

I thought the patched image would have some su capabilities also, but it doesn't. It only installs the Magisk stub, which you can further install magisk from. Magisk is a great and sophisticated app. Has numerous Magisk modules which do a wide variety of things. But if you don't need any of those things, and don't need root, it's pretty over the top for just setting the cam2api, imho.

If you change 'System' directly you will not get any OTA updates, so yer right, don't change that. There's no need to consider changing it anywhere else, as the 'setprop persist etc' command populates all the tables for you. 'System' is not affected and OTA updates will continue. There's no removing Magisk, restoring boot image, reinstalling etc etc etc.

One thing I would warn others about, using the various 'Tools'. You don't know what commands they are running, so you can't be sure what they will do. I say that because one of the tools I recently downloaded and went through and found the commands in it. The first thing it did after booting TWRP was to mount 'System' as Read / Write!! Why does that matter? From what I've read, doing that stops OTA from happening. Just mounting it R/W will change the date stamp on it concerning modifications, and that's all the OTA needs to know to say 'it's been modified'.

good luck, cheers
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] ricardohnn:
Agree with the data persist, but why do you need to flash into the different partition and not only boot from it?

I don't disagree that it will work, i just want to know why not boot from fastboot directly instead of flashing into one of the backup partition. I know that fastboot boot command triggers different code than usual flow. But not that i remember that it would affect something.

Getprop | grep camera would return if enabled right? Or nope?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] AsItLies:
The dual partition thing is new to everyone, I only understand bits and pieces, like everyone. But we do know there's no more 'recovery' partition, like we use to know. And we also know the way the dual works is that when an update occurs, if the device then try's to boot it and fails, it will automagically switch to the previous partition and boot it. Pretty sure we also know that booting and flashing are different with dual slot devices, but I'm not 100% sure how different.

I've tried booting twrp and just ended in bootloops. And that may be because of diff versions of TWRP, or it may be because of basic code all TWRP's have, not sure. But TWRP is a recovery, not a boot image with the proper kernel, like the patched boot images.

I do know for sure I didn't want to brick my phone (duh). So when I found a Magisk install guide, mentioned in my Guide thread, they used TWRP to install it. It sounded like an authoritative guide to me, re the part of getting TWRP to work. So I used that just to be able to run the setprop commands. Worked perfectly. Having to use the other (non active) partition **may** have something to do with avoiding triggering any automatic code to switch partitions unnecessarily, not sure, but not going to experiment any further to find out ;)

Again, do some research on that setprop command, one of the things you'll find is that it doesn't populate all the appropriate tables until 'after' the device has been rebooted. So doing a getprop directly after doing the setprop won't work, not until it's been rebooted.

cheers
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] minnuss:
I did manage to boot the last version of TWRP only first time, every other time ended in bootloops.

And I can sorry say that ADB did not work in booted TWRP, adb did not recognized the phone, so no commands could be typed.

For me, it is easier to flash patched_boot.img and install root temporarily, and then when job is done with activating camera2, uninstall root.

But hey, there are two easy ways, and everyone can choose which one is best suitable for them to try.

It would be of course easiest to just boot TWRP and enable camera2, but it doesn't work for now.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] AsItLies:
Yes, just 'booting' twrp has been problems for everyone, "that" doesn't work (not just now, but probably never).

But, following the Guide I wrote, and 'flashing it' does work. Right Now.

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] ricardohnn:
Actually TWRP boots fine with fastboot boot...

ADB runs smooth, but it just won't keep.

But you've made me envy LOL

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] minnuss:
What version of TWRP did you use, there is now two versions, I used last one, from a few days ago, and in first try I did manage to boot from fastboot, not flash it, but ADB did not worked.

So, if adb did work for you, maybe it was earlier version ?

Anyway, as you say, it is not permanent setprop, maybe because the twrp is not stable one, or maybe it needs to be flashed to work, not just booted.

I personally do not have doubts that this tutorial works, I just did not want to flash twrp. :good:
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Guides, News, & Discussion] ricardohnn:
I used this one

androidfilehost.com/?fid=11410932744536984291

The adb worked... but the temp setprop it's not because of TWRP version... it will only "spread" thru after the reboot. But i think it might be because of this

"System properties are automatically persistent across reboots if their

name begins with "persist." But it sounds like you are just having

trouble setting the system properties due to permission problems.

Most system properties can only be written by root, while some can be

written by certain users like system (for the system server process)

or radio (for the RIL or phone app). In general you can not write

system properties unless you are a privileged user.

Mike Lockwood

Google android team"

Although we do have root at that moment, i don't remember the moment that android actually writes the prop. (it needs reboot, but i don't remember if this will happen)

The guy said before

"So when I found a Magisk install guide, mentioned in my Guide thread, they used TWRP to install it. It sounded like an authoritative guide to me, re the part of getting TWRP to work. So I used that just to be able to run the setprop commands. Worked perfectly."

What happens is that TWRP will give you su permissions and be able to flash stuff... with su ownership...

So basically you should be able to change stuff while in recovery (twrp), unless you do not have permissions...

It's like breaching... you need something that give you and your stuff higher privileges... but if he has it working... can't say it doesn't work...
