[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] China9:
Dear XDA members,

I really sincerely apologize for my knowledge of English. I have a problem what i want to find solution about... I was installing LineageOS 14.1 via TWRP. Becouse my stock rom crashed and bootloop happened. So, I have installled the system and wanted to install GApps and after countless tries I was getting error message 70. Then I found tutorial how to resize /system partition via TWRP. After the resize process completed I left my N7 for the hour and then I came back I saw that it is locked and it's impossible to unlock... So that means I don't have acces to bootloader, fastboot etc. and my windows 10 PC recognizises it as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3)". Then i found software called QPST and tried recovery via Qfil tool but i got Sahara error message, here are some entries from status log

ERROR: function: sahara_rx_data:237 Unable to read packet header. Only read 0 bytes
ERROR: function: sahara_main:924 Sahara protocol error
ERROR:function:main:303 Uploading Image using Sahara protocol failed
[B]Download Fail:Sahara Fail:QSaharaServer Fail:Process fail[/B]

Before theese entries it threw some random mappings that are not understandable for me...

So here's a question, is this state recoverable? Does I have a chance to bring my N7 back to work?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] warwagon19792:
So I've been really wanting something with the February security updates to patch the PNG vulnerability. So I bought a used (like new) vs995 on eBay for ($109) .. downgraded it and unlocked the bootloader. Yesterday I flashed Lineage OS 14.1 for it but today I see they released all the new Lineage 14.1 roms for the v20 but they deleted the vs995 section (The last update it had was December 2018).

So I downloaded the us996 rom unzipped it and in META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script

replaced everything on this line that said us996 with vs995 this way, it wouldn't bomb out when trying to flash it via TWRP saying it's incompatible.

Before

After

I rezipped it with 7zip, dirty flashed it and after about 10 mins or so the boot process had finished.

All of the following works

Making calls

Receiving calls

Text messaging

Mobile Data (Speed tested it and was only getting 1.8 - 2 megs, the bar says LTE, so not sure if it's a signal issue since I don't really know what normal is seeing as I don't use mobile data hardly at all.

Camera

Wifi

Bluetooth
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Phoenix591:
yeah, the vs995 and us996 are 99% identical, only difference seems to be in the software and bootloader, and maybe tiny modem differences ( but the vs995 and us996 modem seem to be the most similar to each other). Also, lineage 15.1, although still unofficial, is pretty stable and has everything working that lineage 14 does ( and can be dirty flashed from 14.1 as long as you also flash to-x86cpu.zip which is in the same place as the 15.1 downloads and updated google apps ) (although the IR blaster might not work consistently until you flash gamma kernel)
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] warwagon19792:
I was going to go that route, but it still had security updates from December 2018. I'm not even really concerned with Root, I just want security updates. Now I'm aware there is security with other aspects of a phone such as a modem and other firmware. But at a minimum, I would like the latest Android Security updates.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlmoGS:
Okay so I have a galaxy s5 ktle and I flashed the RR Marshmellow rom and all went fine, after some time the phone started to get a little buggie so I diceded to wipe everything and flash a new RR Oreo rom.

BUT....

What I forget is that when I was on marshmellow I used the feature that let you make one big parttiton of you sd card and the internal storege, and when AFTER I wiped everything and stupid me didn't back up anything... When I tried to flash the new rom TWRP said updater proccec stop with error 7, so as a smart boy myself I ask my smartest friend... Google...

Found a page somewhere that suggest that in the mount section in TWRP the "system" check box isnt checked so I checked it and it worked! I flashed the rom and everything was fine.

the phone booted up and I saw some wierd things.

First in the storege section in the settings app my 64 gig sd card have 124 gigs lol... and inside it (still in my settings up) theres a "system" section, and when I tap it, it say that Android OREO store system staff there.

Second, when I plug the phone to my PC I can see that the "Internal Storege" is almost empty, 10.3 out of 11.4 gig are free.

All I want is eventually my phone will have the system and all the rom things on the internal storege and the extra sd card for you now... store staff....

I don't care about all the data on my phone, everything is backed up on my computer or on the cloud, so formating and things like this is fine by me.

Thanks!

Great job, thanks for this.

One question: is it meant to be flashed immediately after the initial ROM flash or does it need to initially boot into the ROM first then flash this after?

I tried flashing right after and on first boot all the apps were still present.

Happy debloating"

AFAIK after "debloating" from recovery, you should open settings/apps and "disable" option should be replaced with uninstall option(for the apps that you debloated in recovery).

Personally I first disable, then go to recovery to debloat. Be very careful with what you delete and backup is a must!

For example, in my case, after deleting Chrome Disa(messaging app) stopped working :confused::eek:
[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] acyd:
Thank you, will give it a shot.

This process sort of negates the purpose of the script. Before I would root a stock rom and go through deleting and removing bloat manually just by deleting it through a file manager.

I always thought a debloat script would also remove the dependencies of the debloated apps.. stuff in folders where one wouldn't think to look

Debloater script

Hello,

I used the debloater and looked into the script. Here is what I found:

I removed almost anything possible, because I want the rom to look and feel like LineageOS. I confirm that the debloater works fine in general.

The script only deletes application files, but not data. As such, it should be used before starting the rom for the first time.

If "Delete LG Calendar" is selected, it also deletes the content provider. This is problematic, because this renders any calendar application effectively unusable. If you do not want to use the stock calendar, only remove /system/priv-app/LGCalendar.

There is the possibility to delete "Documents UI" which I find problematic, too.

There are some more applications that can be removed:

rm -r system/priv-app/LGBackup # LG Mobile Switch
rm -r system/priv-app/LGBackupLauncher # LG Mobile Switch Launcher
rm -r system/priv-app/LGFileManager # File Manager
rm -r system/priv-app/LGMyPhoneCare # Smart Doctor
rm -r system/priv-app/LGRemoteCall # RemoteCall Service
rm -r system/app/Music2 # Google Play Music

For my purpose, I also removed the LG Keyboard and LG Launcher. Instead, I extracted Trebuchet from the LineageOS rom and use "Simple Keyboard" from the F-Droid store. I also preload some other apps like F-Droid and Magisk Manager.

To automate all that, I wrote a script that can be found in the attachment. It is tested and works. Some operations require root. Note: For Magisk to take effect, boot a second time.

The attached zip only contains the script and the expected folder structure.

If anyone is interested in a full version with all the files, just leave a message.

Version 2

CA certificate analysis

For the new release of the ROM, I wanted to take this one step further and analyze what CA certificates LG included in the ROM.

Indeed, certificates from WoSign and StartCom are not trustworthy and are still included.

They should have been removed 2 years ago.

Also, there are still some certificates that the CAs themselves requested to be removed (bug 1359515, bug 1465625), or of questionable use (bug 401587).

The full list of differences to the debian package is in the attachment.

My new debloater script also replaces certificates.

[LG G6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme] M4rketSqueezer:
The cam was something I really wanted to keep, because of the bugs in non-stock roms. So no, the camera is about the only thing that's left in the rom. The FM Radio and Phone/Contacts app are still there as well. For the gallery I use Camera Roll from F-Droid.

Note that all the Google apps have been removed, too.

But the question is:

Which of the two is better to use?

I honestly have not yet figured out if the operations are safe

and if the phone could have problems with features in general, I read too much "it might", "it would be better if", "I don't know if" ...

This is because, I'm sorry to say, the documentation on this script does not exist and every developer should explain the operations very well, it's too easy to say "I am not responsible if the phone briks etc."

Hello,

I'm really interested about this debloater; unfortunately i can't make it work.. Here is what i have done :

- Rooted my new LG G6 with LG procedure and installed TWRP

- Complete Wipe & Installed ROM H870_20I_OPEN_EU (last build, found here : ROM H870 20l OPEN EU)

- Reboot and first start : everything ok with the new ROM

- Back to recovery, Flashed Debloater Reborn v4 script in TWRP : all apps selected (LG, Google and others) : success in TWRP ("Enjoy better battery life,..." and Aroma installer finished)

- Reboot : no change; all apps still there...

I tried twice with a reduced selection of apps; same result.

What did i missed ? Thanks for your help.

I rooted my G5 Plus a few months ago, and I just put HavocOS on it yesterday. It took some research but I have everything working except the MyCricket app. This has never worked with root. It ignores Magisk Hide, it doesn’t care if I’m connected to WiFi, or if I have an active SIM installed. It just doesn’t load and says I’m not connected to a network. Is there any way to get around this? It’s not very important that I get into the app, it’s more of a personal annoyance at this point that I can’t figure out how to make it work with root.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] tharghan:
Hello guys. I really don't know which one to pick this year, the S10 or S10E. My main concern is the display, S10E has about 440 PPI (since its FHD), while the S10 display has 550 (WQHD). Do you guys think our eye can actually notice the difference while, for example, watching some high definition videos, or even just surfing? I really like the 10e concept (no edge screen which i hate) but I'm actually worried I'd miss a little quality on the screen. I read some articles about the way the human eye actually notices the difference in PPI but I'm curious about your opinions. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] km8j:
No, you cannot tell the difference. So much so that all Samsung devices come set to 1080 out of the box. If you want full res, you have to go change it

FWIW, I went from the Galaxy S9 to the Pixel 3 which is a pretty similar comparison in PPI. I could tell the difference. Reading text in particular. I am VERY nearsighted, however, with outstanding "near" reading vision. I think this will depend on the person.
