[General Questions and Answers] GODSPD:
Thanks for the feedback, several months ago i flashed G935FXXS3ERHD_G935FXEO3ERG2_XEO on the S7 Edge International, so firmware is correct, i flashed a custom ROM - Glamour ROM a S9+ Ported ROM for the S7E, everything worked fine until i tried to revert back to stock, every other V3 firmware apart from the one mentioned above wont flash correctly, either fails or boot loops, has no stock recovery, and system status is still showing CUSTOM, when i plug the device in it will come up as Galaxy S9+ ... for some reason i cannot do a proper flash on it,

I am almost certain i can do a proper flash with the latest firmware but i am trying to avoid that...
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Have you tried factory resetting the device then try flashing via Odin? Sometimes there is conflicting data that prevents from flashing the firmware.

You might not have a choice of which firmware to flash to repair your device.
[General Questions and Answers] GODSPD:
more than you can imagine, every possible wipe and combination has been done with no luck at all :(
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Well then, suck it up and flash the newest firmware, you are out of options.

Your device probably doesn't allow downgrading, in this case, you can only flash exactly what was on the device before you caused the issue or a newer firmware, you can't go backwards to an older firmware.

If you're trying to flash an older firmware in an effort to get past a locked bootloader, you are probably wasting your time, that doesn't work out most of the time.
[General Questions and Answers] GODSPD:
That definitely makes sense that i cannot downgrade but i am flashing either the same firmware or slightly newer staying on the same bootloader version.

Your only likely option would be to mail in your device to the Sunshine team and pay for s-off, which would allow you to modify any part of the phone. I believe they're in the States though.

I haven't seen reports of the Japanese versions not being able to unlock the BL. Verizon is well known though, did you try to do the unlock process in another web browser ? A different one ?

Can you put the output of "fastboot getvar all" here without the serial and imei so i get more insight on the device and my searching more accurate.

[General Questions and Answers] Chri^2:
Disclaimer: I know that there are other ways to put apps and data on a sdcard which might circumvent the problems I have. I'm not looking for a practical alternativ, but for insight why things are like they are - understanding. This might or might not lead to a 'howto replace your device and keep your sdcard which is formated as adoptable storage'. I'm aware that understanding things might not lead to any practical help.

Also I searched XDA and the internet for information on this topic various times and didn't find anything helpful. If I oversaw something I'm greatful if I'm pointed to it.

I'm testing on two Sony Xperia Z1. Up till now I did the following:

Test 1:

- made backup of everything to usb otg device in twrp on Device1 (sdcard configured as adoptable storage)

- recovered backup of Device1 on Device2 (excluding trim area)

- put sdcard (adoptable storage) from Device1 into Device2 and started the system

- /dev/block/dm-0 is mounted on /mnt/expand/[uuid], but the sdcardfs-mounts to /mnt/runtime/default/emulated, /storage/emulated, /mnt/runtime/read/emulated and /mnt/runtime/write/emulated are missing.

- relocating the sdcard to Device1 shows that it is still working

Test 2:

- made backup of everything to usb otg device in twrp on Device1 (sdcard configured as adoptable storage)

- recovered backup of Device1 on Device2 (excluding trim area) (so far same as Test1)

- started Device2 inserted blank sdcard2 and generated new adoptable storage.

- shutdown Device2, removed sdcard2 and connected original sdcard1 (removed from Device1) and sdcard2 to a computer

- set up device mapper devices for partition 2 of both devices using the keys copied from the devices.

- mounted both device mapper devices and copied files of sdcard1 encrypted filesystem to sdcard2 encrypted filesystem

- umount of device mapper devices, remove of device mapper devices.

- replaced sdcard1 to Device1 and sdcard2 to Device2. Powered on

- Device1 working with all data found (gallery pictures, maps for osmand)

- Device2 had all the expected mounts, but osmand couldn't read its maps

- logcat showed that selinux stopped osmand from reading the maps directory inside the sdcardfs mount of the adoptable storage

- set selinux to permissive: osmand works as expected

Conclusion: On Device2 and/or sdcard2 selinux policies for osmands data on adoptable storage are missing. Since everything (except trim area) is copied from Device1 to Device2 and from sdcard1 to sdcard2 the policies either have to be in trim area (which as I understood is not available on all types of devices) or they are dependend on some device attribute (uuid of sdcard, s/n of device, etc.).

Ideas?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
The only understanding that you need is that you can't do what you're trying to do. You can't "transfer" adoptable storage from one device to another. You have to setup adoptable storage on the new device the same way it was done on the old device, from scratch.

The new device has to make its own "links" to adoptable storage, so to speak, the new device can't use the "links" from the old device, it has to create its own the same way the first device did. When the sdcard is adopted as internal, the device creates an encryption key that is specific to that device, another device can't use the sdcard because it will not recognize the encryption key that was created by the first device. As far as it is concerned, the data on the card may as well not exist because it can't "see" the data.

The encryption key "can" be used to retrieve the data on the adopted sdcard via PC, perhaps, but this encryption key can't be used to help the new device "read" the data.

This is similar to trying to use the hard drive and OS from one PC in another PC, but in android, it is more specific.
[General Questions and Answers] Chri^2:
Thanks for your reply, but it didn't help, because you didn't explain why the key should not be usable by another device. I'm looking for technical background: How does android prevent the use of the card even if the target system does know the correct key?

Furthermore I think that you're not right about this point - if you were right the following wouldn't have worked and the decrypted /dev/block/dm-0 wouldn't have existed on the second device:

You can try it out if you have two similar devices - maybe I have to move the thread to Sony Z1, because on other devices the test I made doesn't work the same way.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Because each device has it's own "identity" to which each key is associated. The new device has a different "identity" and "key", if the data is not encrypted with the key that the device is looking for, it can't decrypt the key assigned to the data by the previous device.

Effectively, a simplified answer is to say that it is because the two devices speak a different language when it comes to their own encrypted data and there is no way to translate between the two to make encrypted data created on "this" device accessible or readable by "that" device.

It's similar to signatures that are assigned to apps and device firmware from various manufacturers. You can't flash a firmware from a completely different device because the software tools involved will not recognize or pass the signatures of different firmware, it will only approve firmware that has the signature it is looking for.

I could also be wrong, no one knows everything, but I'm certain that it is much deeper than you think.

Maybe you can adapt something from the thread below to work something out.

https://xdaforums.com/general/help/corrupted-sd-card-adoptable-storage-t3801250
[General Questions and Answers] Chri^2:
This is what I thought after my Test1 and has been the reason I did Test2 to check if it's true. But Test2 didn't work neither, because there seems to be some selinux policies missing.

I downloaded the source of vold. I'm no programmer and I'm really bad at reading source code. That said: I searched for 'expand_' to find some hint to the key files. Found function BuildKeyPath, which seems to generate a complete path to a key file. This function is used in 'status_t Disk::partitionMixed(int8_t ratio)'. The interesting part that might be the generation of the key for the encrypted partition is

// We've had some success above, so generate both the private partition
// GUID and encryption key and persist them.
std::string partGuidRaw;
std::string keyRaw;
if (ReadRandomBytes(16, partGuidRaw) || ReadRandomBytes(16, keyRaw)) {
LOG(ERROR) << "Failed to generate GUID or key";
return -EIO;
}

std::string partGuid;
StrToHex(partGuidRaw, partGuid);

if (!WriteStringToFile(keyRaw, BuildKeyPath(partGuid))) {
LOG(ERROR) << "Failed to persist key";
return -EIO;
} else {
LOG(DEBUG) << "Persisted key for GUID " << partGuid;
}

If this is the point in code where the key is generated I read it the way that the key is purely random and not dependend on any component associated with the devices identity.

Taken together with Test2 there are - in my opinion - strong hints pointing in the direction of selinux. Maybe I should retry Test1, but start the phone without the sdcard which then would be shown as missing, set selinux to permissive and then insert the sdcard. I guess I'll give it a go...
[General Questions and Answers] Chri^2:
Now I found something interesting: I used twrp 3.2.3-0 on my Sony Xperia Z1 to wipe (advanced) all of the partitions of a phone I used to experiment with adoptable storage. Afterwards I looked at the partitions and found that on data existed the following files

/data/misc/vold/expand_[uuid1]key
/data/misc/vold/expand_[uuid2].key
/data/misc/vold/expand_[uuid3].key
/data/system/storage.xml
/data/.layout_version

To me it looks like twrp conserved those files and put them back after formating the data partition. However it did it and why it pushed me in the right direction.

Test3 on Xperia Z1 using twrp 3.2.3-0:

made backup of everything excluding trim area to usb otg device in twrp on Device1 (sdcard inserted and configured as adoptable storage)

connected via 'adb shell' to Device1 and made a tar archive containing the above mentioned files in /tmp

downloaded the tar archive from Device1:/tmp using 'adb pull'

recovered backup from usb otg of Device1 on Device2

pushed tar archive with keys, .xml and layout-version to to Device2:/tmp

connected via 'adb shell' to Device2 and unpacked the tar archive from /tmp to /data

started Device2: device complains that my sdcard with adoptable storage is missing

put sdcard (adoptable storage) from Device1 into Device2: sdcard is recognized and integrated as adoptable storage

/dev/block/dm-0 is mounted on /mnt/expand/[uuid] and sdcardfs-mounts to /mnt/runtime/default/emulated, /storage/emulated, /mnt/runtime/read/emulated and /mnt/runtime/write/emulated exist also

osmand works and is able to open the files on the adoptable storage. All other applications I looked at worked also

Can anybody try to confirm that this way works to move a backup from one device to another keeping the adoptable storage?

An interesting conclusion about selinux could be that it reads sometimes storage.xml to generate policies allowing the access to adoptable storage. Might be interesting how this works and whether manipulating storage.xml could be a way to inject selinux policies...

Anyone knows how to force 4g in s10+?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] mrnovanova:
You might be able to do that through secret codes but I wouldn't recommend it. There's a reason why your phone drops to 3G. It's probably because your LTE signal is too weak. If you forced your phone to LTE only you might end up with no signal at all. And if you're not in a VoLTE area you won't be able to make phone calls.
