You're welcome

I have no realtionship to this twrp thing from the Chinese gfan website and its admin Machao

About the rooting, it is easier than you think.

Just put the boot.img in your phone, and modify it with the magisk manager. :D

The manual is in the magisk thread here on xda.
[Sony Xperia XZ3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] avaie:
Understood. Is there twrp for Android 10? Or a downgrade is needed. It's different for each OS series on the LG's 845 SD series. I will try it out.
[Sony Xperia XZ3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
Twrp is on my to-do list

I see if I can hack something for Android 10, since twrp 10 doesn't exist at the Moment
[Sony Xperia XZ3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] avaie:
I will downgrade the O.S. then. Thanks - Regards

How do you restore from TWRP? I have a boot-loop. I deleted Dalvik, System and Data; then subsequently restored Boot, System and Data. Futhermore, is TWRP suppose to take so long to load? Device is the 8416 variant, Pie.
[Sony Xperia XZ3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] juniorroberts1989:
did you ever sort this i too have the same phone as you and i cant even get twrp installed or even boot to it. tried android 9 and 10 with nothing.
[Sony Xperia XZ3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] avaie:
Hi - I intend starting afresh tomorrow morning (I've had a long week). From deduction, it is my conclusion that it (TWRP) was not built for the ROM that I installed (U.S. version). I will set up my workstation for a complete re-installation of the ROM. I will use this ROM (https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=288326). If I cannot restore using TWRP, then I will have to put the device down. I purchased the device to retrofit it to be a DAP with bit-perfect audio (as I've done with the LG's). So far, there are certain disappointments. Luckily, I was on the testing phase of TWRP to discover if this function is broken on not.

If you intend using the device as a mobile phone and all it companion functions daily, I will not encourage you to be on Android 10; it is like a dream: chain-issues. Bugs.

If you used the European ROM, look for the option "

rm -rf instead of formatting

" in Settings (if I remember correctly) and try to restore. If it doesn't work, I'd suggest starting afresh.
[Sony Xperia XZ3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MartinX3:
I would use the stock 10 and its twrp

I will later try (after exams) to make a stock/sodp independent twrp which then may work with earlier android versions as well (issue is the different dtbo partition which is different on different kernels and different android versions)

Maybe this bug report about backup and restore is interesting

https://github.com/TeamWin/Team-Win-Recovery-Project/issues/1542

I would anyway look in their bug tracker
[Sony Xperia XZ3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] avaie:
Thanks for clarifying. I've been on this all day and no result. I will proceed to Stock 10 :(

Edit: I have Android 10 installed with TWRP/Magisk and it is the same situation. It does not restore from TWRP. It defaults to Fastboot and no operating system. It's not just the older Android versions.
[Sony Xperia XZ3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] juniorroberts1989:
Good luck I have tried over 20 times. Still nothing. No twrp no custom ROM. Also get no help in forum or anything.
[Sony Xperia XZ3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] avaie:
TWRP works. You will have to install ADB and use ADB commands. It just does not restore from a backup. The same is on Android Q.

This is one of the simplest phones to root and twrp. With the LG's, I have to use a factory modem tool and bootloader scripts from open-markets with abl_1 and 2 edits and so on. About 35 to 45 minutes using a factory tool. That's to unlock without fastboot. This device is a few minutes. Install the ADB drivers and use the commands in the first page.

Edit: I just you wanted to install Custom ROM. I am not sure if there are extra procedures towards a Custom ROM. This thread is a companion thread to the bigger thread (over a hundred pages).

Here is the comprehensive thread - https://xdaforums.com/xperia-xz2/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-2-0-touch-recovery-t3821597
[Sony Xperia XZ3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] juniorroberts1989:
Been trying for ages now still no help in forums or PM. Absolutely no help at all makes this phone the worst I've had for forum help. I could get a far better response and resolution in the very very old HTC sensation forums. Sad really considering this devices possibilities.

[Nokia 6 Questions & Answers] yottabytenOugat:
So I just bought a TWE last week for my Nokia 6 (TA-1021), and I have noticed that when I connect that device to my phone it sometimes has a hard time connecting to our Wi-Fi network, or if it does connect it sometimes display 'No internet access'. Strangely, the problem goes away the moment I disconnect the Bluetooth earbuds. Now, this only happens on that specific device. I have a cheap Bluetooth speaker as well but my phone can easily connect to the Wi-Fi network. I have seek for Nokia's chat support but the solution they gave me wasn't for long term. Does anyone also has this kind of experience with their device? And does anyone know how to resolve this problem?
[Nokia 6 Questions & Answers] qwertysmerty:
Bluetooth frequency range overlaps with Wifi 2.4GHz band. So if BT device working frequency clashes with Wifi 2.4Ghz channel your access point using you will have connectivity issues. You can try re-configuring your Wifi access point and selecting another channel. Or ditch 2.4Ghz band and use 5Ghz only. I had a similar issue with UE Boom speaker and ended up using 5Ghz band for wifi.
[Nokia 6 Questions & Answers] yottabytenOugat:
Now that you mentioned it, the audio does act up when using my Bluetooth devices near my wireless mouse, which also uses 2.4GHz band.

But as I said before this only happens on my true wireless earbuds, and not on my Bluetooth speaker. Does that mean that my speaker uses a different frequency?
[Nokia 6 Questions & Answers] qwertysmerty:
Bluetooth operates in range 2400 to 2483.5 MHz (79 channels having 1Mhz width, plus two guard channels), while Wifi 2.4GHz operates in range 2412Mhz to 2484Mhz (12 overlapping channels of 20/40 Mhz width). So your speaker uses one of those 79 channels which does not clash with your WiFi, while earbuds use some channel causing interference. Unlike Wifi you cannot configure your earbuds/phone to use another BT channel to avoid clashes with Wifi.

As I said before you can try reconfigure your access point to use another 2.4GHz channel. But in my case reconfiguring Wifi AP did not help too much, because I have a noisy neighborhood with lots of access points operating in 2.4GHz band, so selecting available channel not clashing with bluetooth and not deteriorating Wifi performance appeared an impossible task, so I resorted to 5Ghz band.
[Nokia 6 Questions & Answers] yottabytenOugat:
I see. That really puts me at ease. I thought my device was somewhat broken.

Oh, I just received the December patch yesterday and my problem somehow disappeared. While writing this I am using the aforementioned wireless earbuds and so far, it doesn't do that constant connect and disconnect.
[Nokia 6 Questions & Answers] qwertysmerty:
Probably earbuds/phone auto-selected another BT channel after the phone update.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] harif_p:
So when i'm trying to restore my backup from google account (on first time setup android), it didn't restored correctly. My hotspot settings, sound settings still has the default config from the ROM. But i have a suspect to Android setup, which always appearing to the notification and settings, and when i clicking it, it will says preparing and you need to connect to wifi. But i've already.

oh, for the information, this thing happens on all Pie rom build end of november-now (early dec)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Black_Stark:
Dont restore. Dont copy data. Reinstall from playstore.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] harif_p:
no, i'm never restore apps from play store. It only restore settings configuration, and some apps which has backup on drive.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] officialnaink:
Use migrate app

Use this app and u can migrate from rom to rom easily without losing apps and app data (setting, permission, etc)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] harif_p:
Ok, maybe it's not a fix, but a workaround because till the date, while i wrote this (15 Dec 2018), the only cusrom that doesn't need this workaround only Aex, yes, Aex initial official build, while other pie still has this bug.

So what i did is select one of my apps to restore while on first time setup, then when arrived on home screen after completing first time setup, find app restore notification on status bar. Click on use mobile data, then select restore now. After that click on apps, it will send you to play store, to the apps update list.

While on Play Store, cancel all apps than on update list, then find the apps by keyword or in library, that have been selected on first setup. Click cancel to that, and you're done. All apps Settings, Settings (like sounds settings, keyboard preferences, etc) will restored correctly. :D

tl;dr, backup restore from google account doesn't works if you doesn't select at least 1 app while on apps selecting on first time setup. This thing happen on almost all Pie Rom that i've tried (note : only using rom that maintened by official maintener and never tried GSI) (Nos, MSM, liquid remix, Havoc,Arrow, PE, Bootleggers) except Aex.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Black_Stark:
Not a good idea. If u move from one rom to another. Restoring User Settings creates problem. Everyrom has diffrent tree. Can create crashes and drain.

Even restoring it on same rom is not good idea since same rom goes through huge changes.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] harif_p:
Yeah you're right, sometimes if the backup comes from heavily modded rom like LR, Havoc, then it restored to minimal cust like Arrow, Nos, then it would make the systemui crashed and phone stopped responding
[Fire TV General] Intenti0n:
Hey guys, Came across a great APK which allows you to access the entire playstore on your Android TV.

Yalp Store uses the same (protobuf) API the android Play Store app uses. It downloads apks directly from Google servers.

By default Yalp Store connects to Google services using a built-in account, so you do not have to own a Google account to use it. The only reason to use a live Google account is to access the paid apps you own.

Each time you log in a new Google Services Framework id (also known as device id) is generated using your device parameters.

For us to access all the apps all we need to do is spoof our device ID with another handset (Nexus / Pixel / Samsung tab etc).

You can see a demo of me installing the full version of Google Chrome and also Youtube TV direct on my 4K firestick
[Fire TV General] cognitivedissonance:
Do other apps see this as Play Services also? I have an app that apparently requires Google play services, and it seems that the other method for putting that on the Fire TV 4k is not working anymore.
[Fire TV General] jaybo2099:
That's not YouTube TV you are installing. That's YouTube for Android TV. It's just regular Youtube, and not the live TV and DVR version of YouTube TV.

[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldfish2:
I recently upgrade my stock Nexus 5X to AICP (Custom Rom based on LOS) and everything that came with that (unlocking, TWRP, updating kernel, rooting with Magisk) to "celebrate" the end of security updates for the Nexus 5X.

But I've noticed that when I listen to an audiobook and play a game WHILE IT IS PLUGGED IN, the battery will slowly be DRAINING. For some reason the charging can't keep up with that load anymore, when in the past it'd slowly charge under that same combination of apps.

Could it be slower charging? Or the system using the battery less efficiently? How can I tell? Could it be quick charging no longer works under the new ROM? I think it might be that this new ROM is just more draining, but I can't really tell or know what to look for. Have others experienced this and can maybe point me to something that works better like the stock OS used to?
[Alcatel 1X Questions & Answers] milankragujevic:
ALCATEL 1X Development Thread

TWRP and Kernel work is mine and is free for everyone to use, but I appreciate being credited.

System GSIs are created by Phhusson.

Guide for flashing with SP Flash Tool is mine, but the code and binaries are proprietary information from TCL/JRD Communication and may not be redistributed.

KERNEL - Based on latest Alcatel GPL source code that they released, compiled and packaged into a boot.img - bit . ly / 2Gc4XUN

TWRP - Custom built from source TWRP from my device tree. Most things work, no special partition support other than /vendor - bit . ly / 2EevCO7

TWRP device tree - Github: milankragujevic/android_device_alcatel_5059d (I can't post a link due to XDA restrictions for new users)

Stock rom for 5059D_RU - bit . ly / 2ruktBa (remove spaces, can't share link directly)

How to unlock bootloader?

Reboot into recovery (either hold Volume Up when booting, or adb reboot-recovery), go into bootloader mode (fastboot), and run fastboot oem unlock. Then confirm with the volume button and reboot the device. Please note, all data will be wiped.

How to flash kernel?

Reboot into bootloader and run fastboot flash boot boot.img and fastboot flash boot2 boot.img (you need to flash boot2 too, or else the phone will refuse to boot due to integrity and signature problem).

How to flash system or recovery

Reboot into fastboot and run fastboot flash [partition] file.img. For system, partition is "system", for recovery it's "recovery" (obviously).

How to flash with SP Flash Tool?

Flashing is similar to most other phones, except you need a special version of SP Flash Tool, and a custom DA, preloader, Auth file and of course the scatter file for this device (MT6739-based).

Download files from here: bit . ly / 2L7gwLX

In SP Flash Tool, select "DA_PL_U5A_PLUS_4G.bin" as DA, "MT6739_Android_scatter.txt" as Scatter and "JRD_6739_HZ_U5A_PLUS_4G.auth" as Auth file. If it doesn't work with that file, try "JRD_6739_A30ATMO.auth" as Auth.

Add some files, i.e. boot.img, recovery.img, system.img, vendor.img in the same folder as the scatter file.

Then, take apart the phone, disconnect the battery, click the start button in the software and plug the phone into the computer.

Treble GSI flashing

Most GSIs work, provided you download an arm A-only image.

Both Oreo and Pie work, but on Oreo there's a problem with sending and receiving SMS, calls and USSD codes, and mobile data.

On Pie, mobile data works intermittently, and SMS, calls and USSD works constantly.

LineageOS non-GSI

I'm working on building a LineageOS image specific for this device, which should fix all issues with MTK RIL.

[Alcatel 1X Questions & Answers] T3ll3S:
Hi again, does anyone of you know how to fix this error, im very scared that my phone wont show any screen again.

This is what happened: I tried to install Android 10 GSI and bootlooped so I went to TWRP and used my backup but from no reason the phone died during the backup and when I powered it on it vibrates but it doesnt show any image at all and takes a bit longer to vibrate.

The error on SP Flash Tool is STATUS_BROM_CMD_FAIL (0xC0060005). What do I do? When I try to flash it turns the LED on but then it turns off and turns on again but gives this error. If also there is a way to boot to bootloader directly tell me PLSS. Its Hard Bricked.
[Alcatel 1X Questions & Answers] milankragujevic:
You did not flash correctly. The device isn't hard bricked, you have to turn it off (take it apart and disconnect the battery then reconnect it but don't turn on, keep the back cover off because you will surely need to repeat this many times), go to Options, Download and enable "Storage checksum" and "USB checksum", and then start flashing and then plug in the phone while SPFT is trying to flash. When SPFT starts flashing do not touch it, when it flashes the phone will reboot. You also need a proper stock ROM.

You can also just literally use the Mobile Upgrade S Gotu2 tool from Alcatel: https://mega.nz/file/DjpzTRDB#vC3SrO5hQr1Nzn32lWxVGLhmclfSpPF6CsIWHRaTsP8 and restore the stock ROM that way.

[Alcatel 1X Questions & Answers] milankragujevic:
Yes, I clearly told you:

In SP Flash Tool: Go to Options, Download and enable "Storage checksum" and "USB checksum".

THEN

flash.
[Alcatel 1X Questions & Answers] T3ll3S:
I enabled but still no results. The button i was talking about is on the phone do i need to touch the phone or just put the usb?
[Alcatel 1X Questions & Answers] milankragujevic:
Phone should be off fully. Then start flashing in SP Flash tool then connect USB to PC.
[Alcatel 1X Questions & Answers] T3ll3S:
I cant. Even if i take out the battery i think the phone has a motherboard bootloop or something because it takes longer to even vibrate (when i hold the power button). at least the pc recognizes the phone. One question? How do i send pics?

EDIT: I MANAGED TO WORK ONCE BUT IT WAS FORMAT + DOWNLOAD
[Alcatel 1X Questions & Answers] milankragujevic:

WOW, the nostalgia is hitting hard right now. This phone was truly one of the funniest I ever owned, learnt a lot with it. I remember not figuring out about the offline charge thing and just gave up; the hard brick was easily solvable with the MTK upgrade tool. Fun story: my (old) phone became a Z-Fold in it's last days of life before being broken forever, the screen had been replaced so many times i just cared less about glueing it, my friends where amazed by the fact I could use the phone without it being close to the display 😂. Btw sorry for being such a noob back then, hope I didn't get you mad 😅

Cool site you have, wished I had this phone again so I could mess it up a bit more.
