[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] rondol1:
The official way to upgrade your Prophet is to use the Rom Update Utility (RUU) provided by your vendor. The RUU is very convinient; it has all the OS files packed together in one archive, so nothing can be misplaced and it is executed just by connecting your device to your PC, no preparation needed. This RUU has the nasty habit the check your Prophet by using the SPL. If your device isn't the same brand (like Q-tek, Dopod, O2, XDA, etc, etc,) it just refuses to work. Because of this it was practical unpossible to post a universal upgrade overhere.

Some genius people developped a way to replace the OS through the "backdoor". With the help of this set of hacking tools it became possible to upgrade your Prophet with a universal, homemade ROM. However, because of the complexity of this method (now refered to as the "Old Method") it was very funurable to errors an needed a lot of preparation. Also the OS-file cannot be combined in one single archive as with the RUU. The cange of loosing or misplacing one is there.

So the challenge became to find a way to use the RUU without the check. So other genius people find out a way to manipulate the SPL so the RUU will bypass its check and will work as if it was released by an offical vendor.

This SPL manipulation can be done for one time use only use SoftSPL (JumpSPL), the original SPL will stay resident but is bypassed prior to running the RUU. If you flash a lot this method is time consuming, but the advantage is that it won't interfere with your device (except upgrading the OS ofcourse...)

An other way is to use HardSPL. This will replace your SPL with a manipulated version wich will stay resident until you install another SPL. This way the first flash-cycle will be a bit complicated but the following atempt will be as easy as connecting your device to a non-Vista PC and run the provided RUU.

The downsite of this successtory is that it installing the HardSPL seems to be a tricky procedure where a lot of people obvious are making a lot of mistakes.

Hey.

I have been using LineageOS 14.1 based on Nougat with AGNi Kernel, but I still have some problems with app smoothness, randomly crashing and having a weird stutter in games (I have tried Cytus II and Pokémon GO and with both happens).

I think is because of the 2GB of RAM, but I want to know if this is normal to you or if you recommend another ROM or Kernel, preferable based on Nougat.

This is my only device so I use it daily, I want to keep it the most stable, but with no Android Marshmallow or lower.

Thanks!

Same with me

I've tested plenty of custom rom for my 2gb ram kenzo and its turns out dissapointed me.

Now i think i've found the best rom for me and it's MIUI China Rom.

This rom is very smooth for me comparing to another roms i've tested. You just need to add a Google installer to make it perfect rom.

No need to flash custom kernel because the best kernel is the default for me :fingers-crossed:

I already sideloaded the apk and it doesn't work on S9/+. The app checks if you have a supported firmware.

I decompiled the apk on my linux machine and am searching where the check is being performed. to see if i can bypass it.

The response message you get is defined as a string that translates back to an id. This id i traced back to EntryActivity.smali alongside a const v2, whatever that might be. Inside this .smali file there are multiple references to versions, processor so this seems to be where the check is called.

Is there anybody here that actually has programming knowledge that could point me in the right direction on how to do this? I've never really looked into the inner workings of an app before, nor did i ever really program anything except some small python projects.

S9+ on Android P beta, signed up and accepted for LinuxOnDex beta, installed the apk from apkmirror, downloaded the image and extracted to LoD directory. On starting terminal mode I see this in logcat:

so it (was) in ModelTypeUtils.java which has been renamed to a method 'c' in class 'com.samsung.android.lxd.a.g'.

But, I'm going to guess that this needs root access to do its low-level linux things, so the edited apk might need to be signed by Samsung to work :(

I am with last kavana's rom.

I set right time.

Reset the phone - the time is 10 minutes back

Reset again - no other time movement, but its still 10 minutes back/

Set right time again, but one hour foreward.

Reset the phone - One hour and then minutes back

This means that the internal clock is 10 minutes back, and Windows set the right time just temporaly. On every reset the time is wrong.

What is the source of the problem and why Windows can't set internal clock?

I am not sure but I did not have this problem with HTC WM6.0 ROM.

Are you sure you arent connecting your phone to your computer through activesync, in the mean time, and activesync is resetting your time ?

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Uzephi:
Unroot, yes. Relock, no. You need to flash all back to complete stock with no edits to any partitions to get updates. TWRP mounts system so once you do any zip install, the hash of system or other partitions changes and the hash check during update will fail.

It would be best to flash all then take the update and reboot after. If you must keep your data and not risk losing any, then your best bet is to "disable" or freeze updater.

Hey everyone!

Not to cause any fear mongering, but as we get closer to unlocks coming back from OnePlus, I'd like to make sure that everyone exercises some caution.

According to what little information we have we know that the Modem is likely signed by T-Mobile.

Everyone is eager to try to get the Global ROM working on the T-Mobile version and we'll do our best! But please exercise caution. As of now we do not have any factory images, or stock images for the T-Mobile variant.

If you softbrick your phone, it may be a few days before it can be fixed!

Flashing an unsigned modem may result in your phone not being able to function properly from a network standpoint!

If you rely on your phone on a daily basis, please do not "Guinea pig flash." No one wants their new device nonoperational.

As always, do what you want to do! Just please be wary, and know that there are risks until we can properly assess the differences!
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Addiso:
Is there a program oneplus uses to flash firmware? I've always been familiar with LG and Samsung devices, but anyway I know we can most likely flash anything that isn't signed with different RSA keys. Don't know if oneplus is similar. Submitted for my unlock bin at midnight so I should be receiving mine soon. I'll try and pull as much information as I can so we can compare.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] nima0003:
No, just adb as it should.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] tech_head:
This phone uses the standard fastboot to flash.

This is like the Nexus, Pixel and Essential phones.

Typically you cannot flash to a locked partition unless the omg file is signed correctly.

That means that you will typically get a failure message if you can't flash a particular partition.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Dameon87:
The only one that I'm aware of is MsmDownloadTool. However, I haven't seen much mention of it in context to the 6T. I know it was used for the OnePlus 6. But I believe it's more used to simply recover from soft bricks.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] justibasa:
There is so much false information in the OnePlus site forums. People telling others that once they unlock they'll be able to flash the international version without a problem. I posted that they can't rush into anything and to stop spreading false info or people are going to end up with bricks.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Dameon87:
Very much so. I mean maybe things will work just fine.... But it is not wise to ever just jump into something. Like mentioned, we don't even have factory or stock images for the T-Mobile variant. Something goes wrong and you don't know what you're doing and you're dealing with a brick until development catches up. I know everyone is eager, but people need to be smart about it too.
