[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] maerck:
I don't remember the apps I uninstall, but since the first I do after buying/factory resetting any Android phone is to remove/disable unneeded apps I can only confirm the ones that I disabled.

I've disabled the Bixby, Flipboard, Facebook and Samsung Pay (it's useless in Portugal).

Besides, since I rely mostly in Google apps (Calendar, Gmail, Keep, Task, etc), most of Samsung apps are also useless, so I've put them in a folder and that way I don't remember they exist (not the best approach but I'm trying to keep the phone as stock as possible).

But if you feel that you get what you wanted with the China rom, why don't you stay with it during a few weeks to see if everything is ok, and after you choose if you want to change the rom.

With some luck we'll get some roms fully working with our device and them you can change it. That way you can try a Lineage Rom which will probably be more close to what you want.

[Honor Play Questions & Answers] Zyfe3r0:
Hi guys,

I have been facing this problem (i think) and i would like to know if its normal.

Autofocus works

Focusing is good and fast.

But when ever i touch to focus on something it makes a tiny rattling sound like (TICK) and then focuses on the object.

Its like the sound of a watch doing 1 second tick... Except its a bit louder.

Normally this happens in phones with OIS but PLAY doesnt have OIS...

Also if i tap the camera on the backside (slight tapping), it makes this noise which is easily audible. The same tick sound can be heard if i tap anywhere on the back panel of the phone.

Is this normal or should i take it to SVC?

P.S No noise when camera focuses on its own, the tick sound is only heard when i focus on any object and change from back cam to front cam.
[Honor Play Questions & Answers] Varman01:
I have the exact same issue

Hi

I've found myself in the exact same situation as this one. The camera in the honor play makes a "tick" noise as in a louder clock's ticking sound every time I manually refocus the camera. There's also the added noise of the above said sound when I tap on the back of the phone. If anyone has any update on this please share so I'd be at peace right now. Thanks.

Can someone check if this method works to replace stock bootanimation without rooting the device?

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for bricking device or bootloop. Also, note that modifying /system will break OTA update. So, please try it at your own risk.

1. Download any bootanimation and make sure to change the name to bootanimation only. You can get it from here. Link: https://xdaforums.com/android/themes/alienware-t3721978 (Credit goes to [MENTION=3563392]mauam[/MENTION])

2. Go to device settings/Developers option and turn on USB debugging

3. Make sure you have ADB tool installed properly in your computer.

4. Connect your device to the computer using the USB cable.

5. Now open ADB tool folder and paste the bootanimation zip file here.

6. On the same ADB folder, press shift+right click and open command box.

7. Type: adb shell mount /system

8. Now type: adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media

9. Type: adb shell umount /system

10. Type: adb shell reboot

I am not sure if it will work for Mi A1 (I can't test as I no longer have an Mi A1), but it works perfectly on my Nokia 7plus.

Yes, I habe tried it now and it works, the bootanimation is in the system/media folder, why wouldn't ot work? Lol

Hello everyone.

I know many of you have worked on safe-strap TWRP recovery in light of the inability to unlock the bootloader.

I have been testing on my note 8 and as someone else pointed out if you install the Engineering Rom listed below you will have the oem unlock toggle.

This service rom.

COMBINATION_FA71_N950USQU2AQK3_CL12591988_QB15811772_REV00

As far as everyone believes this option is only for FRP reset.

To tell you anyway the FRP reset is simply ZEROing out the persistence partition.

A persistence partition that is ZERO is default OEM Unlock ON. Meaning the toggle is set to not allow oem unlocking.

Using the mentioned rom above it is possible to set oem unlocking allowed.

This does not mean the bootloader is unlocked.

But i do feel that it is very close to unlocked and leads me down a path that i can unlock the bootloader.

I have a Galaxy Tab E that is allowed to be bootloader unlocked.

By doing a dd dump of all partitions then doing hexdump of the dd dumps the hex dumps can be diffed in terminal effectively.

By doing a comparison of the unlocked and locked state partitions I can Identify the changes being made.

I am still in the process of testing and comparing the dumps.

I need a TWRP build for N950USQU2AQK3 or ver 2 bootloader.

I almost think I have the bootloader set to where it will allow TWRP to Run.

This may not be a full unlock yet but having a good TWRP build would be a good test.

I could build TWRP myself but i do not have a build system setup currently..

So one of you that has compiled twrp for safestrap or other testing please share to save me some time.

I dealt with this same scenario on a HTC Desire 526 that was bootloader locked by verizon.

I did develop a unlock method using this same process i am using now.

So no......This is not a JOKE.

I am making progress on unlocking the note 8 USA Variety. :victory:

Help me out and share your TWRP.

I am still making progress on this. I took a step back to make sure I can unbrick my device when I screw something up.

Currently I am working on the unbrick for the V2 bootloader.

Someone got the firehose for the s-8 and s-8 + versions and some people have had luck unbricking s8 and s8+.

I have to rebuild the s8 unbrick rom for the note 8.

This involves getting the GPT tables off the device then decoding the GPT to write the partition.xml. Since we have ufs memory there are 4 primary partitions which means there are 8 GPT tables.

Once I have this all completed we can flash anything we want with the firehose. Even single partitions.

What I was asking for was TWRP that is Built for the Note 8.

So I can see if I can get it to boot.

This would save me from building TWRP myself and leave me more time to work on other stuff.

My Note 8 is currently on V2 bootloader.

We will need a unbrick rom for each bootloader version.

In order for me to make that I will need the GPT tables from each bootloader version. I can provide the commands to do it. Anyone wanting to help just let me know. I will be starting a new thread of how to do this soon.

Currently I am working on Rev 2. bootloader.

You guys that have other Revisions Can help us all out by getting GPT backups from your devices. Then I can Compare the GPT for differences.

I currently have the UNBRICK for bootloader version 2.

Anyone with a HARD Bricked device that is on samfail V2 possibly samfail V2..5 or the factory AQK2 or the AQK2 factory repair should test this unbrick. I am sure it will work.

If other versions of the bootloader have the same gpt then we can take the bootloaders out of the stock firmware and swap them with the files in the unbrick and it should work. If the gpt is different then new GPT files will need made for the other bootloaders.

Which Box do you have?

You mention SD / does the sdcard method still work.

Do you put the sdcard into the device to boot download mode?

If that is the case we can run full android off the sd card potentially.

I would love to have a copy of the card if you can dd and image that would be great.

I have been thinking about buying the medusabox pro. It supports firehose and these phone models.

I don't know what box is best but whatever it is i want to buy one.

As far as bootloader unlocking I noticed after the GPT on the beginning of dev/block/sda there is a pretty decent chunk of data that is not the GPT or the PIT and may be a place for us to look into. Its basically a hidden spot in the emmc that samsung is not normaly written to.

[MENTION=1661600]kronickhigh[/MENTION]

If you can re-base and disassemble the abl.img that could lead us down the right road. You may be able to locate where the security checks are executed. If you can locate those it could be possible to determine the memory addresses where this data is stored.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BigCountry907:
What Happened

What happened to your note 8.

The unbrick files are legitimate Samsung Leaked files.

If you are on bootloader rev 2 you should be able to unbrick it.

You need to load the qualcomm edl drivers.

If you are on a different bootloader version we can try to make a unbrick for you.

Also depending on what you were doing.

You may have got the device stuck in sahara mode or something.

I once thought i bricked mine.

It was deader than dead. Only showed up as unrecognized device.

I left it that way overnight until the battery fully died.

Then when i plugged it in the next day it came back to life.

Unless you physically damaged the note 8 it can be recovered. Sooner or later.

Sooner if you are on rev 2

So as this thread first asked.

Who has a halFway decent tree for me to build TWRP.

I going to need it pretty soon.

Were about there. I gotta get me a 64gb sd card tonight and finish up a little more work on my gpt decoder.

Looking at the strings in the elf files I can see that the option to boot from sd card is in there.

Other than that I need to create sparse chunk images of partitions like /system and /data and /persist.

All the big boys gotta get sparsed out to chunks small enough for edl flashing.

I have a very special set of bootloaders and I'm thinking this set will be able to be unlocked.

What needs done is building a complete edl flash using these bootloaders and the standard U2 version /system and other images needed to complete the flash. If this all works as I anticipate it will be RIP Locked Bootloader.
