[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] Flash-User:
Congratulation for your Explorer Edition.

you can switch from china to global with unlocked bootloader (after 300 hours) but you should not lock the bootloader back after flashing, this will brick your device.

2nd disadvantage of these chinese edition is lack of LTE band 20.

If you are a european user this will have negative impact of your mobile coverage because most of our mobile phone providers use this band.

I would also like to have had the explorer edition but lack of Band 20 isn't a compromise for me.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] unix2208:
yes thank you for the info, just hope the Xiaomi not sometime the bootloader still locks permanently.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] rayoflight7:
seems like China version can install global rom via unlocked bootloader.

is there any instruction on how to do so?

also what will happen if bootloader is unlocked? thanks in advance!
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] Bretl2009:
Is there any way to install global rom on china version with locked Bootloader? Maybe with XiaoMiTool V2 ?
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] klanac8901:
No, it will brick and you need service point
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] Vihru:
are you sure?
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] TheInfiniteAndroid:
Yes, because it's true..
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] klanac8901:
Yes, go to any Xiaomi subforum and ask, what will happen, when you buy chinese hardware and flash global rom - it will brick.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] Bretl2009:
Thanks for answer.

Next question....If i unlock the BL and flash the global rom (without root), does i get problems with google safetynet check? For example i want to use google pay.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] TheInfiniteAndroid:
Google Pay won't work with a unlocked bootloader and no root
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] EniGmA1987:
EDIT: as many people pointed out, with some modifications on settings we are now able to use Google Pay.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] Bretl2009:
Oh No :( so i have no chance to use google pay with China Version and global rom. Damn:rolleyes: fail
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] Ulver:
You can flash the xiaomi.eu ROM, which passes safety net.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] Bretl2009:

[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] XDM inc:
where ever did you hear that? each and every phone i have ever had i have rooted as well as had a fully functioning play store.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] ArmStrongDickPunch:
They not talking about the play store but google pay (formally known as Android pay) which doesn't work or typically doesn't work if the bootloader is unlocked, but magisk root I believe has a mod to by pass but don't quote me on that I haven't used a xiaomi device before and haven't rooted my phone since I used my old Nexus 6p (which had bootloader unlocked and root with google pay working)(using Huawei mate 10 pro without root)
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] XDM inc:
ah yes, some apps like google pay have root detection but magisk now a days have circumvented that now.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] lightmastertech:
My wife and I are hoping a root will eventually come out for this phone, so not taking system updates. We disabled the auto install of system updates in Dev Options, and on mine I disabled auto download in the system updater. on hers however, I forgot to disable the auto download of system updates. Is there any way to delete the data so it will stop bugging her? Can't clear the data of the system updater app.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] GuestK00143:
You will have to factory reset. That's the only way without root.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] listenguys:
---------------------------------------

Google Voice + Call Waiting

---------------------------------------

Device Information

Device / Nexus 6 32GB US XT1103

Region / United States

Network / Sprint

Build / lineage_shamu-userdebut 9 PQ2A.190205.001 10eabd58f8

Baseband / MDM9625_104670.31.05.51R

Version / 16.0.20190307-nightly-shamu

Recovery / twrp 3.2.3-0

Application / Voice 2019.09.234885482

Application Author / Google

Symptom Description

Phone shows an incoming secondary call while actively engaged in a phone call

User can acknowledge the incoming call in attempt to switch phone calls

Phone will drop both calls after switching

Phone then loses data connectivity

You must power the phone on/off to regain connectivity or use the service menu to toggle the radio services on/off

Reproduction

Install Google Voice [rebranded as Voice by Google]

Proceed through the setup process

Make sure the option to use Google Voice for all outgoing calls is selected in the app settings

Place an outgoing call from your handset that connects and remains active

Place a second call to your handset so you receive a call waiting interrupt

Answer the call waiting interrupt

Watch both phone calls drop and the handset lose data connectivity

Considerations

Google Voice is available only in the United States

These symptoms can actually be reproduced on just about every other custom Oreo and Pie rom

This issue has likely gone unaddressed because most of the rom testing community remains international

Testers within the United States probably do not all make use of Google Voice

You will be unable to use Google Voice outside of this region because the service does not allow foreign forwarding numbers

Call waiting does work when calls are made and received without Google Voice

And no this is not a Google Voice application isolated issue because Google Voice works perfectly fine on stock roms for the Nexus 6

Google Voice also works fine on Pure Nexus which is based on Nougat 7.1

The installation of this rom was performed clean after a full wipe of all mount and storage points via twrp

Hello guyz...

Post on this thread why you are leaving the device and what you will miss the most about this device

For me, I has purchased the S10 128 GB, mostly because I love its screen and premium design and the camera

What I will miss???

1). No Notch!!!!!

2). The amazing battery life which I thing S10 will never match

3). Extrmely amazing developer support for AOSP roms and kernels. I will miss the AOSP ui and its fluidity a lot which again I will never get on S10

4). The fact that I could use it without a case and a little roughly as it was cheap!!!

Leave your feelings here

Thank You

I made TWRP backup of the most possible partitions if someone need it.

Backup of Stock ROM LDN-L21C432B139 (8.0.0.139)

Also made partition images of stock via DD command via ADB, or FF-ddumper app.

Since /data is encrypted, can not be backed up in current TWRP.

Data EMMC image (with internal sd) can be backed up via TWRP via DD/TWRP to SD/PC/USB-OTG with filesize about 25 GB.

TWRP with all partitions (no FBE nor MTP): https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=1395089523397910855

Backup of Stock ROM LDN-L21C432B142 (8.0.0.142)

Before any changes, please backup your /system, /vendor, /kernel, /ramdisk, /recovery_ramdisk for just in case in twrp.

For /data backup online copying of files or Migrate app or Titanium BackUp or something else method.

Extracted from update.app: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=291939

Changes from original: Permissive /Kernel by [MENTION=8420194]EzzUsesAndroid[/MENTION] (repacked to 142), Magisk-patched /Ramdisk, Custom recovery, Removed DM-Verify + FileEncryption from /Vendor, Replaced bootanimation to walking fingers in /Product.

After restore, reboot to RECOVERY, not to system, and Data have to be formated! <--- This will remove encryption and set partition to encryptable=footer, so in the future you can backup and /Data (without internal storage). Since it is encryptable, Magisk Manager will shows turned on "Forced encryption" but it is not. You can encrypt it later (but I don't know how).

TWRP backup folder of main partitions: https://mega.nz/#F!ZgQxlSDD!s4eAEun2bC4MrIRL3mcgRA

If you want to keep encryption, flash this, after restore, (before reboot to twrp), but DO NOT format /data, just wipe.

If you just want to remove encryption for any rom, flash this, after restore, before reboot to twrp and format /data.
[Android General] adeii:
If you wipe/format data to remove encryption or use custom rom, flash /data/hm_init backup via TWRP: mega.nz

SE Linux permissive kernel by Ezz, needed for custom roms: this post
[Android General] Proseph:
I have a question, when I want to go back to stock rom (currently running AOSP 9.0 GSI), do I only need to restore the two system.ext4 in the TWRP backup folder?
[Android General] adeii:
Yes - you had to restore system.ext4 (splitted in 2 files), but also to format /Data and /Cache and restore backed apps/data later, after stock system successful boot.

If you had already remove "verity" and "fileencryption..." flags from /vendor/etc/fstab.qcom and recovery.fstab, I guess you only need to wipe /Data and /Cache, after restoring /System.

And you need to match stock rom versions in /system as in /kernel as in /version.

I made TWRP backup of stock 8.0.0.142 (feb-2019) with no verify, no forced encryption, with permissive kernel. You can use that or extract images from update.app.

stock rom in 3 files.

Update 1:

I saw that there is newer version 8.0.0.143 (march-2019) for LDN-L21B model, eu firmware C432. No need to restore /data/hw_init folder, just flash

update_data_full_public.zip and update_full_LDN-L21B_hw_eu.zip, ignore error 7 etc, works fine.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] RED_:
Anyone have any tips in disabling bloatware, like the microsoft apps? Think it would be good to have a thread on it.

I've already uninstalled facebook by running the follow commands in adb:

adb shell
pm uninstall --user 0 com.facebook.services
pm uninstall --user 0 com.facebook.katana
pm uninstall --user 0 com.facebook.system
pm uninstall --user 0 com.facebook.appmanager

Anyone know how to do the same for the microsoft apps, what about the alternative which is to disable the apps? I see a lot of apps I will never use that I cannot disable. Is there a good app on the play store that will let me disable these apps? For example I would like to disable the gallery and use Google Photos directly, or maybe Samsung Health.

I've also remapped the bixby button with bxActions, the benefit of doing it this way is I haven't had to go through the Bixby setup process first.

So if anyone has any other tips of knows the package name of the microsoft apps, would be to good to have it all in one thread,

Hi all,

My phone is Sony Xperia Plus H4493, and pre installed build number 50.1.A.11.40 (Oreo) HK firmware. Recently I notified an update via PC Companion, to the version 50.1.A.13.83 and installed it via PC Companion. But after this update, PC Companion is detecting my phone as "Sony H34", instead of "Sony Xperia XA2 Plus". Before installing that update, PC Companion correctly detected it as "Sony Xperia XA2 Plus", but not anymore. I even did software repair via PC Companion but no help. It still detects as "Sony H34".
