[HTC Desire 530 Questions & Answers] Joloxsa Xenax:
I need help rooting my device, I have tried some methods to do so but it always says it can not but done or not supported. I know an ideal option would be to get a new phone but in the time being I can't as of now. I'm new to all of the rooting stuff, so I am not sure if there is a root for my phone or not. I saw another thread talking about this but it was very confusing to me and I felt like I could have gotten lost doing it and may end up messing my phone up, as it didn't seem to go much into detail. Also wanted to know if there is a method of rooting it that doesn't require it be online the entire time, my phone has a hotspot and I don't have wifi here. If I do then I can try this when I do get some

[Magisk] totalgaara:
Hi everyone,

After reading a lot of guide to fix safetynet issues (false response) i'm still stuck and i think i need your help because it doesn't seems to be a regular problem

So here is the situation, i'm on a Acer S56 (liquid jade S),i ported a ROM from the Lenovo P70 (because the acer rom was a real s...t..), my rom is working good but i know that the "ported" rom can be a reason for Safetynet fail, i modified the build.prop to add my fingerprint and description from the acer rom, no change so far.

I also tried Magisk Hide Props, i type "su"" and " props" in a terminal, then select a fingerprint from a google device (closest to android 5.1) (My rom is running on Android 5.1) and.... i still cannot pass safetynet even with magisk uninstalled both result are false

"Cts Profile : False"

"BasicIntegrity : False"

In the playstore, it's say that my device is not certified

Do you know any idea how to fix it ?

I think it's because i'm using a "OEM " rom from Lenovo but unfortunatly there is nothing else for my device, it's a MT6752, with rom and kernel 32 bits provided by acer, all i can find is 64 bits rom so i can't use it (or if you know how, please tell me, i've been looking for weeks!) :\

Thank you
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Is MagiskHide working at all? Test on a root app.

Does the kernel have support for mount namespace (check the Magisk log)? If it doesn't there are some instructions on how to fix that in the release thread (under "Notes & Troubleshoots").
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
In that case the failed result is very likely because of something with your ROM and how you've built it. I know nothing about building ROMs, so my usefulness in this particular case is likely over and done with...

If you need to get further with this you are going to have to figure out exactly what it is that is triggering SafetyNet. Good luck...
[Magisk] moe7863:
Has your ROM ever passed safety net before?
[Magisk] totalgaara:
I don't really know, in fact on my stock rom magisk was causing bootloop so i went to supersu.

when i ported my rom, i applyed back supersu but there is no way to hide it so i decided to fully ininstall it (from the menu) and try magisk, and it was working without any bootloop at all. So i never checked safetynet before

It's surelly the port that causing that, but what can be the issue ?
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
There could be remnants of SuperSU still... You could try the unSU script and also make sure that you don't have the SuperSU app installed.
[Magisk] moe7863:
Safetynet

Did you port the ROM yourself or did you use someone else's ported ROM ? You will never pass safetynet if your ROM/kernal does not have the ability to pass safetynet. The beauty of Magisk is that it's a systemless root method which gives you root access without modifying core system components and can be undetectable if done properly. In order to help you, I need to know what version of Magisk/Magisk Manager you're running and also download the app 'SafetyNetCheck' from the playstore and let me know what the results are.
[Magisk] totalgaara:
I removed Magisk with the restore boot image and finally the last step to remove and next i go to the recovery and flash unSU zip but... no change :\

I ported it myself with a little bit help of "Android Super Kitchen Tool" (just to make a good flashable script).i replaced all the file needed like libs, hw etc from the acer rom, and removed all the bloadware of the lenovo rom (there where so many...) and modify the kernel from the boot image to replace it with the acer kernel (and also fstab)

I reinstalled magisk so i'm running the latest version, 17.1 with the latest magisk manager

Here is more detail about the safetynet
[Magisk] totalgaara:
i already tried that before i post ^^ wasn't working :|

I'm pretty sur is not root related, safetynet know surely that it's just not a official rom but what can i do :\

I would like to find a rom for this device, like RR or Lineage, but i search for weeks and there is nothing for mt6752 with 32 bits kernel, it's so sad...
[Magisk] moe7863:
OK understood. Firstly I want you to try the universal safetynet fix which is a zip file and has to be flashed via TWRP. If that does not work, I want you to download the Magisk module 'MagiskHidePropsConfig'. If they both fail then I guess you will have to start from scratch. Inbox me for the files.
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Since MagiskHide is working as it should and he's already tried the device fingerprint method (both of the modules you mention do that), there's no need to do it again. He's already tried the latter module and depending on what version of then former you use it may mess up your Magisk installation.

The issue is most likely caused by how the ROM is made.
[Magisk] moe7863:
Not much to lose..

I agree, but there is no harm in trying? If he makes a NAND backup then he doesn't have much to lose except his time? It's either that or starting from scratch, the choice is yours..
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
But he's already tried and it didn't work, so why should he try again?
[Magisk] moe7863:
You said that he has tried the latter module but has he tried the other one? If you know better then I will happily step back and you can take over with helping.

Good luck
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
It's not a pissing contest... :silly: I just happen to know how those two modules work.

Universal SafetyNet fix has two parts. One is a script implementation of MagiskHide that is (as far as I know) only useful for a certain number of Xiaomi devices (and since the device in question has a confirmed working MagiskHide this is not applicable in this case). The module was actually named Xiaomi SafetyNet fix for a long time, until it was discovered that the second part of the module, the one that changes the device fingerprint to a Xiaomi device (can't remember which one at the moment) also was useful for other devices. Hence it was renamed to

Universal

SafetyNet fix. The bad thing about it was that it replaced Magisk's internal Busybox with it's own, something that has a lot of potential for breaking things (and just bad practise). There has been some updates that change this, I believe, but the inner workings of the module hasn't changed in a long time even though it's been updated for more recent versions of Magisk by different users.

MagiskHide Props Config only focuses on the second part above, changing the device fingerprint to one that is Google certified. Together with [MENTION=8570610]JayminSuthar[/MENTION]'s ShellHide module users should be able to replace USNF in most cases and both are regularly updated and maintained.

And lastly, modules that make your device pass SafetyNet by changing the device fingerprint cannot help with a failing Basic Integrity, only the CTS Profiile check, which is another indication that neither of those modules will help...

I also happen to know that it is perfectly possible for a ROM to have it's system set up in a way that makes it impossible to pass SafetyNet on it. That is unfortunately the extent of my knowledge on that topic...

There could of course also be other issues. I don't think the OP has mentioned anything about if they have Xposed installed or not, something that would cause the SafetyNet result we see in this case. But somehow I assumed that the OP had knowledge of this already, since they mention reading a lot about the topic.

That turned into a bit of a wall of text... :laugh:
[Magisk] moe7863:
Woaaahhh that turned into a full educational article :laugh: but was informative and taught me something so thank you. Let me give you a bit of background on why I think the universal safetynet fix could help. I have an S7 Edge with a ported s9 ROM and it passed all safetynet checks until I updated my Magisk version to 17.1/17.3. I tried using a certified google fingerprint, magiskhide and a few other things and safetynet failed at almost every level. I then flashed the fix, reinstalled magisk 17.3 and it worked first time. I do agree that the OP's ROM may not have the ability to pass safetynet at all due to several factors.
[Magisk] totalgaara:
Yes, i already see that ^^ i prefere always do some search by myself instead of just ask

I did something, i don't know if it will help you both, it's not really a rom developpement forum I kind of feel like we're getting away from the subject of Magisk I hope it's not inconvenient. ^^.

I don't know really what to look inside the rom, looking after a file that can alter safetynet

i uploaded my work on google drive if you want and have the time to take a look

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1s9Lpt3U6iXUfZrRswjkIrAjSz6W2Lsgp/view?usp=sharing

PS : the build.prop is outdated, i replace the Lenovo fingerprint and all lenovo mention by the acer one
[Magisk] amitzeo007:
(edited)I had a similar issue both cts and basic integrity false. In my case it was happening because I had included Google Chrome in magisk hide while using Chrome webview as default. After unchecking Google Chrome and checking Google Play Store and Google Play services, I turned off then turned on magisk hide then rebooted, that solved the issue.

[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] applehater00:
I never realised pen tech has finally matured. Wow!! At least with the Note 9 and iPad pro and surface book 2 I tried, it's like writing on paper! So I'm changing my whole workflow and am seriously considering this phone.

So a few Qs please:

1) is the stylus as lag free and responsive as the Note 9? I.e. decent lag?

2) is there a mini more portable version of the stylus just as good? (Like the s-pen in the Samsung?)

3) is the screen's relatively low PPI (346 compared to my Mate 10's 400+) going to be an issue for reading Kindle books kind of closeup (6"). I know it's not technically "retina" at this distance.

4) is the camera actually that good? I've read it's brilliant but the aperture is larger than the f1.5 on the Note 9 so so don't see how it can be that good unless in lots of light. It can't be better than my mate 10 as that also has a larger aperture but perhaps it is because it uses three cams so can let in more light I don't know.

5) Most importantly despite searching hard I can't find a case that can house a stylus. Has anyone come up with a workaround? This is Note taking size yet they've failed to think about any means of housing a stylus... I was thinking perhaps stitch a loop into a case.

6) what is the latest update on the best version to buy?

Thanks to anyone who can help with any of these.

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ryaniskira:
Can someone create an ELI5 "for dummies" video on how to flash a custom ROM and kernel to this device? Because no matter what guide I follow I can not get a custom ROM to boot with a custom kernel installed, it either loops at the Google splash until I turn it off, loops a few times then kicks me to fastboot, boots but the kernel isn't actually installed, or just hangs at the Google splash and never actually starts to boot the ROM. I've been told so many conflicting things it's not even funny, over on the Benzo thread someone told me kernels go in A with the ROM, didn't work it led to the device booting but the kernel not actually being installed. Before that I read that kernels go in B, that doesn't work either, it always leads to the other mentioned issues.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] 5.1:

Did you at least try to follow xanaxdroid (Benzo ROM developer) how-to, to flash the ROM? It works fine...

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Phalanx7621:
Also certain kernels are notorious for not playing nice with certain ROM /kernel combos. I always recommend Flash kernel to get your feet wet as it works with just about everything.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] kkjb:
I agree with previous post. Some kernels just won't work. If time use factory image and flash kernel. That way validation of flashing order since most kernels expect a stock kernel build to replace.

I quoted you in a kernel thread with the exact kernel and ROM you want to use. I listed a step by step that I performed minutes before I posted it so I know it works.

hello everyone,

PLEASE IF ANYONE OF YOU WHO'S AN EXPERT AND KNOW HOW TO DO THAT.

I need your help in mounting a Sandisk NAND that I pulled out from my SonyEriccson W960 phone. I have some important data that I need to recover!

f you can help me to find out which solder points in the board that I need to use/solder in order to make this NAND readable and mounted on my computer...

you know better than me... Please check the attached picture below which has the little board where the NAND is soldered, (it has so many solder points!)

any help or suggestion would be appreciated, and thank you so much. :cowboy:
[Hardware Hacking General] RevoComputers:
At that point I don't think you need to worry about solder points.. That's typically if you're going to use ISP but you need the full phone for that. Or at least the full chipset.

With what you have there, I would just take the chip right off, clean it and read it in a programmer. Look into Sireda adapters or Z3X.

is the secondary screen working?
[HTC U Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] ForceField:
Kind Of ;)

The secondary screen as of HTC stock ROMs doesn't exist anymore in AICP v14

The area where the second screen used to displays its notifications is now used by the AICP toolbar

So it's now like a "Notch"
[HTC U Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] ImFromUzb:
Thank you! I think, this is the best solution for secondary screen. However, I use the phone with #wm size 1080x1920 to lower battery usage and avoid lags in launcher. In this case, the solution in other Pie ROM just preserves the pixel-height of status bar so the bar extends below the camera notch. Is this a case for this ROM, or can you recommend any Terminal command or modification to set the statusbar height (unfortunately, GravityBox does not work in 9.0 as Xposed is still in development)
[HTC U Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] AmonRatMC:
I mean not really. If I'm honest, I would prefer if the secondary display would just be disabled. why? it reduces battery consumption as it doesnt need to be lit and it doesnt compromize space and functionality of the os, for example if you watch youtube, either the video is smaller, or it goes over the 'notch' and u dont see a little bit of the video, same with photos. Though i haven't tested the rom, this is what it was like on the linneage os

[HTC U Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] QDT:
My bet is that you don't have to return to stock ROM but install this ROM and GApps directly. However, if via clean or dirty flash, I don't know. Try yourself and then share with the rest of us.
[HTC U Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] migueljerico:
You don't have to revert because I moved from RR to Pie without a problem, but you have to do a clean flash, very important to do all previous wipes including data and system.

Please share with us, because I'm now with LOS16 and I would like to know the differences between them.
