Where do I find stock boot.img and system.img?

Also, will my phone factory reset after this procedure?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] Neel@1234:
Which version of Oreo are you on? Tell me the build number.

And your phone won't factory reset after this.

Download this - https://android.googleapis.com/pack.../f9b27203a7d6dd2c6709f238d9953c6d4e18c04b.zip

Then extract the files and then find the boot.img and system.img. Flash the images from fastboot using -

fastboot flash boot_a boot.img
fastboot flash boot_b boot.img
fastboot flash system_a system.img
fastboot flash system_b system.img

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] cesar.maranhao:
I am following this guide here to root oneplus 6t (european variant), 9.0.5 Android:

https://www.xda-developers.com/onepl...otloader-root/

bootloader is unlocked and I can see there is a positive connection between phone and PC by checking the output on adb devices and fastboot devices. both work as intended.

the problem is that when I try to adb sideload, it says that I need version 1.0.32. so this means I cannot flash the custom recovery.

any tips? been looking online for quite some time now and cannot figure out what to do anymore. where can I find this 1.0.32 adb version?

I am a long time user on nexus 5 and just bought this phone, want to root it aswell. (note: this does not mean I have high level of knowledge on these types of hacks, just wanted to have this clear.)
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] nikexv2:
Are you trying to boot or to flash the recovery from adb ? If you're trying to install the recovery from adb it wont work, on a/b devices the recovery is part of the boot image wich needs to be patched, boot twrp.img and then get the bluespark twrp zip and flash it.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] cesar.maranhao:
I can start the twrp, the problem is when I go into adb sideload and try to flash it. on pc is says "error" and on the phone it says I need to get adb 1.0.32. I am trying to flash that bluespark recovery with no luck.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] nikexv2:
You need to flash the zip from within the recovery that you booted using adb, not sideload it.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] cesar.maranhao:
I already tried that, copied the files to the phone but when I try to access them through the bootable trwp, I cannot access them.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] MrSteelX:
wrong twrp used. you correct twrp and it will work. like this twrp https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-6/development/recovery-theme-blacked-twrp-acuicultor-t3847752 or https://xdaforums.com/devdb/project/?id=27466#downloads the choice is yours alone to make.

[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] guztavo1:
I saw the phone in a store today and wanted to buy it. But got annoyed that the smallest screen scaling option is still bigger than my p20 pro and feels like a waste of screen real estate.

Does anyone know of a way to make things on screen look smaller without rooting?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] bark1234:
connect to adb and use wm size option. whatever size you set make sure aspect ratio is same as original device. it works better than wm density.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Sebring5:
It’s even simpler than that. There are adjustments in display as well the option in developer options to adjust dpi.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] ajsmsg78:
You can change the minimum width setting to a higher number in developer options but it will mess up the SystemUI a little. Certain apps will become too large. It also resets every time you restart the phone. Huawei needs to fix this. It's one of the worst things about EMUI.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] bark1234:
try using wm size. it works perfectly.

apart from some apps, like camera. use tasker to reset back when using camera
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] guztavo1:
Thank you so much Guys! Is there any difference at all between using minimum with in developer options, and using vm size in adb? Cheers
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] ajsmsg78:
It really doesn't work any better than using the Minimum Width setting in developer options and like you said it even screws up the camera app.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] jeradjohnso:

I was wondering if anybody had any insight or advice on LCD scratch removers. I've got a couple small scratches and was looking at some removers but wanted some advice or recommendations on any. :o

TIA
[General Accessories] thundaar2000:
I was wondering the same thing!

You find any answers??
[General Accessories] clamknuckle:
I've never tried this on my phone, but I had some light to medium scratches on my PSP from where a friend of mine used a paper towel to clean the screen.

I went to wal-mart and bought a bottle of what's called Brasso, it's in the cleaning supplies aisle. Followed the instructions and it took them out.

Note: I would do some more research first. Please don't take my word as gospel and get mad at me if you ruin your phone. It worked great on my PSP though.
[General Accessories] thundaar2000:
I think I will send an email to UTStar and see if they have a solution... I will post any reply I get.
[General Accessories] Xim23:
I haven't found much out unfortunately... Of course all the sites that sell scratch removers claim to be the best so I'm going to try a couple. I'll post the names and whether or not they worked.
[General Accessories] katjie:
scratch removers are bull****. Don't waste your money.
[General Accessories] crassmike:
I think the most scratch removers are fine for normal plastic screen covers as they are used on mobile phones. This is no choice for PDAs because they mostly contain sanding particles that could harm the soft display.

For the special PDA displays I have only found a tutorial about "Turtle-Wax" in german here:

http://www.psionwelt.de/workshop/index.htm

It would be little too much to translate all this into english but basically it is written that if you polish the device carefully with the wax and then let it "dry" a few hours, it gives it a nice anti dirt cover and fills some minor scratches...

Greetz, Mike.
[General Accessories] katjie:
If your screen has scratches on it, I mean big scratches, change it. Much more efficient imho. Miracle products never work. They just contribute to make you wallet flat.

Maybe the german turtle wax would apply kinda fine coating so you can prevent more scratches to appear but it will never fill other scratches. What you'll get instead is a kinda blurry screen, maybe less responsive and so on. Worst, turtlewax is a product meant to be applied on cars not on phones... Your choice buddy, not mine. If you have money to waste buy me a pint or two!
[General Accessories] crassmike:
I never said that it would work for big scratches. I also did not try the turtle-wax myself, but I think if it is recommended in a forum of retro palm enthusiasts, it is not a miracle product that just mess it all up. The thread starter wanted experiences or recommendations so please don't guess about products you didn't use.

Greetz, Mike.
[General Accessories] katjie:
I ruined a phone once using that kind of products so here we go with experience. I do not guess about products i do not use/ I read chemical formulas and so on. I also read your deutsch palm enthusiasts palm users. Sorry to be the pain in your ass bur it's a a free place to speak and give opinion on various matters.
[General Accessories] crassmike:
Hey, I'm okay with that, but just to say sth. "is bull****, don't waste your money, ruins everything" without giving a reason is no constructive statement for me (where a discussion forum should be there to discuss).

Erm, OK, so I should give a reason why I think the author of my linked text knows about the chemical stuff he is using...

PS: I can read chemical forumulas, too ;) ...

So, that's just my opinion...
[General Accessories] katjie:
Nervermind. Anyway, our buddy can test if he feels like testing. Then he could post the results...
[General Accessories] webdude12:
Why I have never tried on a phone. I can tell you that Novus Plastic Polish will remove fine scratches from Plexiglass and other plastics. I used it in the car audio industry for years.
[General Accessories] thundaar2000:
I contacted UTStar.com tech support and asked them:

"I have a XV6800 and noticed some light scratches on the touch screen. Most way over to the right where the right hand scroll bar would be, and one right across the middle at an upward angle. The stylus seems to be making at least the ones on the right (I never use my fingers or anything else on the screen.

Is there anyway to polish these out?"

[General Accessories] tomtommy306:
3M makes some great swirl mark removers that will work just fine when applied with a foam pad. DO NOT USE BRASSO (As I saw above)!! It's for metal. I wouldn't recommend any harsh chemicals, as they will more than likely blur the screen for good.
[General Accessories] test157:
check up this solution, they used VERY CHEAP cd disk scratch remover - and seems it worked like a charm.

http://translate.google.com/transla....ua/publ/1-1-0-20&sl=ru&tl=en&history_state0=

[Windows 10 Mobile] I_am_Egyptian_and_proud:
The problem is that when I work on my phone and browse it after about five minutes

facing a lot of laggy and lag and overheating cpu

I mean its

had the same problem with my lumia 1320 since updating to w10m. sometimes when pressing the homebutten from out of an app the homescreen would just "freeze". it then does not accept any touch gestures on the screen nor react to pressing volume/camera/display-off. even some rainbow coloured stripes on the display when turning it back on again (sometimes).
[Windows 10 Mobile] nate0:
It's old, have you tried a hard reset yet?

Also the 1320 will usually over heat on Windows 10 Mobile from my experience. Whenever working with that model I would lay it on a cold pack while doing an upgrade or updates to Windows 10 Mobile if ambient temperature was a bit high and was not keeping it from shutting off.
[Windows 10 Mobile] I_am_Egyptian_and_proud:

[T-Mobile LG G4] egoista el unico:
I had a phone for the G4, but it was working normally and then signed me in the water. Of course, I took the battery and put it on the rice for two days, but now it does not work. There is no trace of life in it. It does not charge and the computer does not recognize it, but I noticed that when I remove the battery and reinstall it Pressing the power button does not work, but I hear the sound of a slight vibration. What is the solution, guys? Help me
[T-Mobile LG G4] Android#:
The slight vibration may be the chip powering up but there could be other damage elsewhere on the motherboard or other circuits that is preventing the phone from starting (if the water is short-circuiting the circuitry elsewhere it will probably short out and damage the phone further. I would suggest leave it alone, do not try power it up for a few days (3-4) longer, maybe leave in the rice again, and see if it comes back to life.

By the way, these phones are very cheap on eBay provided that you are able to buy and have it shipped from/to your location. I recently bought one for $20 locally and another spare for $48 on eBay, have total of 4 of these, just love these phones except the outdated OS.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers] Adam O'Blivion:
I recently bought the XZ1c and have been downloading the System Updates. Every time I install one, I get a notification that a new update is available. I've noticed that the most recent ones start with 41.3.x.x.xxx; mine starts with 41.1.x.x.xxx. It seems like I have to download every update in-between before I get to the current one. Is there a way I can jump right to the newest?
