[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] beta546:
Hey, so package disabler pro + works on the Note 9, I've tried it and disabled a few obvious apps that I don't want or need. Problem is there is sooo much junk, i just don't know what's safe to disable and what isn't in most cases......now there are XML files for disabling all the crap in bulk, only they're all for other devices, does anyone know of one that's been made for the note 9, or have the ability to make one?

I think it would be a big help to many, not just me, it's also one more reason not to need root, especially when rooting our devices is a *****, also, package disabler works on the Snapdragon versions too.

I'll play around a bit and disabled as much as possible, then post the XML if I can, if a few of us did the same, then someone could amalgamate them all into one quick and easy debloat script.

Obviously there will be apps some people want but others don't, the point will be to have an XML that will disable everything that is safe to disable, then after, you can go through and just re enable any apps you do use

Just an idea, if anyone wants to help then feel free.

Okay I've attached my list, I can in no way guarantee this won't make your phone explode haha, what I can say is that my phone seems fine with all these disabled (N960F/DS) It could potentially stop something working the way it should, but it certainly won't do anything that can't be undone with a few simple taps.

Hopefully someone gets some use from it, and even better if anyone can add to it.

Hello there,

I have some problems with Apps that create unwanted folders and DNS requests.

Now I am looking for an option to log which app creates which folder/file and/or which from which app the requests are sending.

It would be great to find some of this so that I don't have to check every app on its own.

I have root/magisk and I can install Xposed if needed.

(Oreo, Oneplus 5T, Stock Rom)

Thanks for helping

How can I keep my FM transmitter always on.

It is an app, which I must go into every time I turn on my car.

I don't have source code for this android mirror....

If I did, I could probably go into /etc/init.d or something,

but I wonder if there is another way to achieve this....

Note: the FM app came with the mirror, I don't think its from the APP STORE since its hardware related.

Here is the mirror.

How about you use an autostart / start at boot utility and add your fm transmitter to it?
[Connected Car] cellurl:
I have to push a button inside the FM transmitter app.... I have used autostart..

I just now wrote the developer and asked him to add that "push a button" upon autostart...

I guess I wish android had a way to "drive" other apps from your own app... Like a screenscraper app somehow...

Thank for the reply...

Hey guys and gals,

I have a question.

Been wanting to flash AT&T for wifi calling.

But since my phone is my daily driver, I needed affirmation that I can flash just the CSC and UserData.

I am currently on CRG9 build.

Would I be able to flash the CRF6 CSS and USERDATA or will I have to revert back to CRF6 on my phone before flashing?

Thanks in advance guys.
[Android Head-Units] sev:
How does one identify if a unit is MTC or FYT? I have a MTC unit and the bluetooth is horrible and I hear the FYT units are better. Is this true? I want to pick up an FYT unit and don't know how to find one?

What's the main differences between FYT units and MTC? I assume the FYT units have a different interface for coreboards, are they built better? Do they use similar/same MCUs?
[Android Head-Units] 96carboard:
If you're expecting the bluetooth to be magically better on an FYT, you are very seriously mistaken.

Just like MTC, with an FYT, you can expect problems with.... everything.
[Android Head-Units] sev:
interesting. I read in another threat that specifically the fYT's have way better a2dp
[Android Head-Units] 96carboard:
I cannot vouch for that, but I can tell you that the FYT's definitely have problems with PHONE CALLS. You're lucky if the sound connects at all.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Cuancena:
Since the release of Android Pie, I have noticed that I no longer have the navigation keys beneath my keyboard in immersive mode. I have to swipe up an extra time to access them. Is there any known way to fix this? A simple Magisk module to undo this change would be awesome!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Sab3elbromba:
How are you enabling immersive mode ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Cuancena:
With this command:

adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.full=apps,-com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Nettwerk:
With that command I can hide it?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Cuancena:
The command hides the status bar and navbar, yes. The problem is that as of Android Pie, it also hides the navbar beneath the keyboard (the little down arrow used to toggle the keyboard). This behavior was not observed in Oreo or prior versions.

The command absolutely still works for immersive mode. It now just behaves differently, and I've been experimenting with potential fixes. I've tried adding exceptions for Gboard to the command, but it doesn't help. I'm stumped on this one.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Nettwerk:
But I'll happy if you can hide back button.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] cyberhern:
I have been using GMD immersive for this and it has the same issue with the keyboard.

Also even though the navbar is hidden the space is not used by the other apps it's merely wasted space.

I could put up with having to double swipe up if the space was being used by the home screen and other apps.

Does the command simply hide the navbar and not use the space?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Cuancena:
The command does allow apps to use the space, other than the keyboard.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Sab3elbromba:
What if you swipe up to bring up the back button and press it, will this hide the keyboard?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Cuancena:
Yes, it does. It just annoys me that it's an extra swipe that I didn't need to make before. Only change in Android Pie that I don't like.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ivan Wonder:
Hi guys, I have a LG G3 (D858) that recently died and can only boot into Download Mode. I never root or modified any of my phone's hardware.

I have been using a Win10 (x64) computer, not sure if this would make any difference.

I have read numerous articles about un-bricking the device but I keep on getting stuck with LG FlashTool (v1.8.1.1023).

I have gone through the BoardDiag process, pass for both AP and EMMC. When I get to the LG FlashTool, I select the right tot and the LGUP8974.dll (the one available here on this forum), then the process will start for a few seconds and return with the "Download FAIL!!" message.

The 'log' below the red warning message says :

PID: NULL

IMEI: NULL

CrossDL [] to [D858HK]. SWversion[]

I would appreciate if any of you could help me out, thank you ! :)

[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] gnabtib8:
If we have magisk already installed, do we need to run the magisk uninstaller prior to your flashing instructions or will dirty flashing cause issues with existing magisk installs?
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] engine95:
If I remember right, when I remove dm-verity, it does something to the WiFi along with other things.

But this only happens coming from stock. If you already have flashed one of my previous kernels, then no problem. The price we've had to pay since Lollipop.

Why wait? Flash it and then the update if there's any changes. You always have your backup to restore to. ?

I haven't needed to uninstall yet. I just flash the kernel, then Magisk and reboot. It may not be right, but it works for me. Even coming from RB1 V1.3.

V1.1 is in the house!!!!!

Synapse support added. SEE READ the OP!!!!!!!

And I guess the bigger news is that full GPU control has been added. Clocks and voltages!!!!! I ported our existing r12 driver.

Again, SYNAPSE is the only tuner that will do everything built into the kernel. I spent a lot of time rewriting it. You'll need to DL it from the OP, as it's no longer available from the Playstore.

Bootloop

Hello, i've bootloop on samsung 810 with lineage os 14.1.. What am I doing wrong?
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] engine95:
This is for stock based ROMs only. In this case, 2DRG2, 2DRH1.

I don't think there's any other kernel, except what's built in, for the Lineage based.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] gnabtib8:
Is there anything I can provide for you to help to possibly support T817T (T-Mobile, 9.7 LTE)?
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] angus6969:
Thanks
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] engine95:
The older 817 source was very different from these 4. I'll need to look again and compare. Just so I know, what bootloader. 2 or 3? It's the last 5 numbers of the build. The 3 had the most current source back then.

Edit: It looks like the 817 is being left out of updates, anymore. The most current is for Turkey and it's 2CRB1.

I can't say I won't, but it would be a while if I decided to build for it. I would need to build for it specifically and on it's own.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] engine95:
V1.2 is in OP!!!

Merged 2DRH1 source in for all. 710 will still be RG2 in name only

Wireguard updated 20180918

A little tweak to the GPU to allow a higher (420) GPU clock while on max CPU - it'll use it if DVFS allows. No tuning necessary.

Enjoy :D

There was an error with auto brightness, it keeps turn on when I set it off. I don't know if this related to this kernel or with my rom.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] engine95:
I need more details. But my best guess is to turn the kernel settings down. This kernel cannot run at max everything. You need to finesse it. ?

Samsung's DVFS will disable auto brightness if things get too hot. It's my failsafe and why I won't disable it.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] agcyber4:
This problem occurs when the tablet is not in use, I always turn off the auto brightness feature. After a few hours of not being used then I turn on my tablet the auto brightness feature is always on.

Hi

I have a trouble if you can help.

I have SM-J701F mobile model. when ever I updated it, the process in recovery installing system update goes to 32 percent and then shows erasing and phone restarts and then Android pic appears with "No command" and every thing stop here. after a period of time it goes to black screen.

Any option I tried to execute in black screen like wipe/cache or other options, it says "e misc partition could not find" even turn off or reboot failed and "e misc partition could not find" appears .

I 'd like to mention that When I used odin tool to install my firmware model to my phone at first try I chose CSC firmware file instead of Home CSC file. Then I tried to repeat the firmware installing process again but with choosing Home CSC file this time. but the problem remains.

How I could solve this problem ? and what is the reason for that ?

Hi guys,

I really need your help on this! I acquired a retail version (demo) of P10 Plus VKY-L09C652 and wanted to rebrand it to VKY-L09C432 because the SIM card was not read with that build.

Unlocked the bootloader and installed TWRP successfully, tried HWOTA8 method to rebrand but the device never got to boot and install the update it stayed with checking MD5..

Now, I fiddled around and wiped without backing up every partition apart from internal storage and microSD :cyclops:

Tell me what can I do know, I can still boot up into TWRP but that's it... the phone prompts No OS installed!

Would really appreaciate a detailed solution to this. Thank you!

We understand your concerns as a user. We would like to clarify that we have updated several internal modules in the recent time in order to meet with the Google Play requirements. As it could result in stability issues, we have rolled out the same in the phases to the free users. We are continuously monitoring the stability and addressing the issues reported on the various channels. Once it found to be stable enough, the same will be merged to pro version as well.

Hopefully, we will release the hotfixes for the Pro version in the near future. Meanwhile, your patience is highly appreciated.

There in any way to have glove mode? With a rom?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Sandepp:
There will(hopefully) be a lot of otas coming to Poco F1 for bug fixing. So if we are rooted with Magisk we cannot install Otas directly as magisk modifies our stock boot image. And since poco doesn't have A/B partitions we cannot install OTA's and still keep Magisk. That brings us to Flashfire which can preserve root. Flashfire doesn't work on MIUI 9.6.14.0 (it doesn't work on mine) .So how do we install OTAs while preserving Magisk ? Is it possible or do we have to flash stock recovery and stock boot image and lose magisk ?

OTA update method according to topjohnwu:

https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/blob/master/docs/tips.md

Would be helpful if somebody can post a diy in the guide section on how to apply OTAs on Magisk rooted devices.

2. Boot to System and make update

3. Flash twrp again and root again with Magisk?

Hi, just booted into TWRP and flashed Magisk zip file, I'm still rooted.

Do you mean then the uninstaller Magisk file? If so, it will remove packages as well and root will still be there... Could you please be more explicit? Thanks!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] trax7:
Magisk makes a backup of ur boot.img, which you need to use OTAs, to restore it, you can flash Magisk again to restore it. (that's how it should work)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] DoudouJack:
In my case flashing Magisk again did not work. From Magisk Manager -> Uninstall either since it was "unable to download".

For those who would be in the same case, I did following steps to update:

- Download latest Magisk uninstaller (currently 17.3, I tested with 17.1 & 17.2)

- Boot into TWRP (I use an app for convenience), go to Install > flash the Magisk uninstaller zip and (optional) boot to system to make sure root is gone (with Root Checker e.g.)

- Power off device and boot into Fastboot, flash stock boot.img (you can find it in the ROM folder you used to install your ROM), boot to System and install OTA update via the update manager, then reboot

- At this point I was stuck in fastboot screen, I simply booted with TWRP (with decryption working) and it took care of installing the update, I then flashed Magisk from there.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] beta546:
Quick question, I'm familiar with using ADB for various reasons, one thing I'm not sure is if ADB has root access, without the phone being rooted?

Specifically, could I pull the hosts file, copy in everything from my other devices host file that's updated regularly, and then push it back to the phone?

I've looked on Google and saw some guides saying you could do this, but I'm not convinced ADB has root access on a non rooted phone.

I can't try right now as I won't be home for several days and no PC, so just thought I'd ask.

It can't be done without root
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] GallardosEggrollShop:
Yup, can't be done without root. If you're looking for adblocking I'd recommend AdHell 3 been using it since launch and it's working great. Blockda is also a great alternative.

Yeah that's what I expected, thanks for the replies though.

Yes they're two apps I've been looking at as well, so will probably give them both a try, I've already debloated the phone massively, so if I can get a decent ad blocker working too then I hardly have need for root.
