2. I did not admit that my ROM is compiled.

3. From now on, I will not release my new ROM to xda. I only send it in the Lenovo community, link:https://club.lenovo.com.cn/home.html?mod=space&do=thread&view=me&type=thread&uid=22023849

[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] argon9898:
I've just had my Nexus 9 a couple of weeks ago, been running on stock OTA 7.1.1 from Google with FireIce kernel. While tweaking around using ElementalX's app on the Play Store, I happened to create a simple script to reboot into recovery (i.e.

reboot recovery

).

After I ran the script, the tablet turned itself off for about ~3 seconds before showing up the Google logo, but this time it went straight into the stock recovery. I tried powering off the device and power it back on, but it kept going into the stock recovery which I remembered having it replaced with TWRP a few days ago. Things went weirder as I attempted to boot into TWRP using HBOOT (fastboot boot TWRP.img) and do a factory reset, but halfway through the process, it froze with the error 'can't mount /data (invalid argument)'.

I tried a few solutions online, one of which involved the command

fastboot -w

. I was able to get into the OS, but as soon as the boot animation ends I was asked to enter my password. No matter what the password, what resulted in the end was the same: "Decryption Unsuccessful - Your data is corrupt" and an option to do a factory reset, but to no avail, since it showed error halfway as well.

I noticed that while trying to do

fastboot -w

, it gave me a warning "f2fs not supported", furthermore the device seemed to be encrypted right from the factory.

Can anyone tell me what exactly happened? How to decrypt my tablet? I've tried FED Patcher but wasn't able to understand the guide thoroughly.

UPDATE: I've managed to install the Lineage OS 15.1 unofficial ROM and so far it's running fine but still get the "encrypted" thing going on.
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChristopherXI:
format data and flash magisk or fec patcher to remove force encryption
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] argon9898:
Did that, nothing worked :/
[Fire TV General] jjccblws:
HI! Have a big suprise for you! Maybe you knew that, but it's useful for new users like me!

For the fire stick 4k hasn't been rooted, there is not xposed or magisk, and the only way to make fun of it is adb. For example, the Icebox app, the shizuku app, app ops, my android tools.........those apps could be activated by the shizuku app. But first of all, you need a PC to adb the fire stick and activate shizuku everytime you reboot fire stick. It is inconvenient.

So how to adb without PC? Ennnn.....with termux app you can adb the devices itself!!!!!!! And you can activate some apps, those apps could only be activated by adb link.

How to do:

1. install termux

2. install adb tools on termux:

it's on this website:https://github.com/MasterDevX/Termux-ADB thanks for MasterDevX!!!!

you can use this code to install:

apt update > /dev/null 2>&1 && apt --assume-yes install wget > /dev/null 2>&1 && wget https://github.com/MasterDevX/Termux-ADB/raw/master/InstallTools.sh -q && bash InstallTools.sh

3. in the termux, input:

adb devices

then the adb authorize window would pop up, select yes.(in fact, the device want to adb you device is the device itself :laugh::laugh:)

you could see :"emulator-5554 device"

then, in the termux, input:

adb shell sh /sdcard/Android/data/moe.shizuku.privileged.api/files/start.sh

this could enable shizuku app. Once the shizuku is activated, it could activate the IceBox/app ops /myandroidtools.......

open the shizuku app, it would say:"running".

All done!

4. if you reboot or plug the charger out, you need do this again.

5. when you leave the termux, input "exit" with the return be pressed 2 times. So the code you input would be remembered by termux. Next time you just need the Arrow keys(upside or downside) to repeat the codes.

Notice:

I think the adb authorization of the fire stick is not very good. For many times(on wifi adb), there is no window pop up. So I could only adb with usb line. Maybe for the first time adb with termux, there is no authorize window pop up on fire TV, and the termux would say "emulator-5554 unauthorized". This is how I solve the problem:

open and close and open the adb debugging in settings.

if it didn't work:

Use otg to connect the fire stick to another android phone.

Repeat the termux steps above on both side. Then the authorize window would pop up when you input "adb devices" in termux on both side.

Disconnect. Normally boot up the fire stick, adb itself.
[Fire TV General] JUSTINMARMER:
What is ****duku and icebux? What are you rambling about?
[Fire TV General] jjccblws:
No one is rambling.

For the fans of android, we know that the Icebox is an app to freeze the apps you don't like, even the system apps.

No root, so you need use adb or the shizuku app to enable Icebox.And there is no "****" in the "shizuku".

Sharing experiences with other is a happy thing. And that is why we come to the XDA.If you dont like it, no one can force you to. But please respect the work of others.
[Fire TV General] JUSTINMARMER:
Sounds like chinese crypto mining malware. Hard pass. Good luck with that though.
[Fire TV General] jjccblws:
hahahahahaha:laugh::Dfirst time to hear that. All the apps above you can find in the google store. The point is how to use termux adb the device itself. Hardly I can find any useful things about this on the internet.But for a unroot device adb is important to do something root-like.

Enjoy it.
[Fire TV General] tinybilbo:
Thanks for pointer to Shizuku Manager, It's exactly what I was looking for to enable IceBox.

Now I can disable all those amazon processes on my (new) Firestick 4K without the need to root...

I had actually asked how to do this on another thread!
[Fire TV General] jjccblws:
[MENTION=4232554]tinybilbo[/MENTION]

Adb the device itself is such a simple but useful thing, but hardly I can find any useful informations on the internet. That is strange ....
[Fire TV General] n8wwd:
Can we use the Shizuku (with Icebox) to 'freeze' OTA updates? I'd like to stay on the current version if I wanted to actually root later.
[Fire TV General] jjccblws:
yeah,I think so. I froze Alexa(the amazon's siri), and when I press voice button on the remote, threre is nothing show up on TV. The progress was frozen.

I think it can stop the ota, too.
[Fire TV General] tinybilbo:
Well... every app I froze has definitely stopped and persists across reboots (even the main launcher "FTVLauncher"), So from my experience I would say "yes" :)
[Fire TV General] n8wwd:
Fantastic! Thank you!
[Fire TV General] funnypanks:
which command did you use to disable the launcher? It's the only reason I'm missing root lol.
[Fire TV General] tinybilbo:
I didn't use any adb commands to freeze the launcher...

I used the Shizuku manager (read the OP on how to do this) to enable Icebox - which is an Appfreezer ( I also need the mousetoggle.apk since icebox works best with a mouse).

Once Icebox was working I froze the FTVlauncher.apk, just be aware when you freeze the main launcher you lose access to the FTV settings.

Just re-enable FTVlauncher to get it back.
[Fire TV General] JUSTINMARMER:
Well the title is certainly misleading it says no PC but this cannot be done without a PC epic fail

What's wrong with you? How can you make such irresponsible remarks? You are the one who repeatedly humiliate others just for your own mistake and bad attitude. Say it again, it's you are the one who treat others un-friendly, bitterly and sarcasticly at first, and untill now. Yes, I did replied you straightforwardly at first, not for my self-esteem, but for your groundless accusations.

Xda is a friendly forum for all the fans of android. Are you a developer or a programmer? Do you know geek's life is simple and beautiful but the life of intrigue against each other is very tired? I replied you carefully like to anyone else in XDA, untill now.Because I just found what you do is to ruin my thread, mislead other readers, and just for take your own personal revenge.

The only reason I come here is to learn, and share all I know to help other people. But you never rest.

Which replacement launcher did you use? Do you use hijack launcher? Or just install another launcher?
[Fire TV General] tinybilbo:
Sorry for the late reply...

I actually prefer KODI to be my main launcher/interface (been using it for years)...

So I installed Kodi and Launcher4Kodi and finally LauncherHijack.

Any launcher and LauncherHijack will do I guess.

Once I was happy with all my settings I disabled the Firetv Launcher
[Fire TV General] funnypanks:
No problem! Thanks!

Ended disabling OTA (afraid an update will break launcher hijack like it did in the tablets) and KFTV launcher, and installing appstarter. Works perfectly. Feels like its quicker, not sure if that's just the placebo effect.

Does anyone know if there is any way to disable only com.amazon.tv.launcher/.ui.HomeActivity instead of all of com.amazon.tv.launcher/ ?

I used to use com.amazon.tv.launcher/.ui.HomeActivity on fire tv's with root since then the settings would still work. Maybe there's a terminal that works with shirizuku? Is there a list of apps that work with shirizuku? I tried reading through the github, but it's all/mostly chinese.

[Fire TV General] jjccblws:
哈哈（ha ha）:D，maybe shuziku's writer didn't know the foreign friends like his app so much.

I read the README.md and didnot find anything helpful, sorry.

I tried forze the default launcher of fire stick, yes, the settings did cannot be open. And didn't find a good solution untill now. Maybe you can try to search ui.HomeActivity in IceBox, if it is in the list l, it can also be frozen.

For the 3rd party launcher, I tried 20 or 30 launchers, the only one can work is ATV launcher. In another thread, the author said Amazon made some limits in fire os, so the 3rd party launcher apps can hardly work on it.

All we waiting for is the root, hahahaha

:laugh:
[Fire TV General] pontiffholychurch:
I can't root my Fire TV device either, it's a Toshiba Fire TV edition with the latest OS 6.x.x.x updates.

Do you think disabling the FTV and freezing the apps I don't use (basically everything) improves performance? The performance of my device is extremely laggy, in Hulu sometimes it can take up to ~5 seconds for the volume bar to come up or the long-press function to pop up.

Thanks.

Also, my TV keeps going to fking sleep and I don't know why. If I set the screensaver to come on at the 15 minute mark, the TV will actually go to sleep before the screen saver even starts, it didn't used to do this, and I don't have a sleep timer set.
[Fire TV General] jjccblws:
Sorry, don't know why it is so sleepy...（Maybe the TV's setting, not the fire device's?)

For the IceBox, I think the amazon apps are OK. I use the IceBox to froze some 3rd party apps, those apps always running background and make the system slow down. Do you install lot of 3rd party apps? Maybe that is why the system so slowly.
[Fire TV General] pontiffholychurch:
I actually have the version of Fire TV which is installed directly onto the TV, the Toshiba ones released ~September last year.

I found a thing to disable sleep on adb so maybe that will work.

But lately the TV has been extremely sluggish, like on Hulu I will try to adjust the volume and the volume bar won't even show up until several seconds after I click the volume button, and the UI in general is just suddenly very laggy, as if their was latency between the remote and the TV, even after a factory reset. I don't recall it ever being this bad before. Thanks for the guide though I am going to try it out.

[Fire TV General] jjccblws:
I think it can work on all android devices. Did you turn on "allow adb" in settings? Or try to reboot, sometimes the adb window cannot pop up.
[Fire TV General] enderviaansible:
They're apps for Android that rely on ADB-only commands to enable management of granular app permissions and use of some system utilities that normally aren't accessible to non-rooted users of an Android device.

The server is used by a number of different apps, such as Brevent (app permissions and control), and Icebox (app freezer, including system apps). They're legitimate apps insofar as they're widely used and serve a real purpose. I can't speak to their security, personally, but they're more than fly-by-night malware.

OP obviously speaks English as a secondary language, but they're being clear enough: they wanted to share how you can install the above apps, which would normally require you have a second device connected via ADB, with only the Fire TV itself available. (In this case, by using ADB within termux, an Android terminal emulator, running locally on the Fire TV, and connecting to the Fire TV to itself from itself...as it were.)

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] hellscanyon215:
So I've been browsing around XDA and I have concluded that the best version of the s10 is the snapdragon variant, but I also want an unlocked boot loader and dual sim so I'm considering this one that is a Chinese version:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-Ga...hash=item3405ba151d:m:m-IqwLrG6T3v2zoeCJ4lo0A

It is a SM-G9700

But because it is Chinese I'm not sure if it has google on it (and I don't want to go out of my way to install it) but it also might be a Hong Kong model with google? any information on this would be appreciated, thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] VICosPhi:
Many people here who got it from that seller, confirmed that it has Google services preinstalled. Carrier aggregation may not work however as someone said on US T-mobile at least. The phone also lacks band 66 and band 71 both LTE bands, 71 being more important as T-mobile expands coverage.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] evo85210:
honestly, unless youre some kind of heavy/advanced user, I doubt youd see SO much difference in everyday usage that makes all this hassle worth it.

I'd just buy whatever is available locally for an average user.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] iFlasher:
Also if he plays heavy games and emulators, that's where he may prefer to choose the Snapdragon variant (Talking from my own experience, not coming back to a non snapdragon/adreno device never again).
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] knoxster:
Not to mention that the Snapdragon bootloader is unlocked in China ironically. And further if you need dual-sim functionality your choices are that one or the 97xF/DS. Which unless he lives in Mexico or Central America is not available locally.

I've made my decision it's going to be the 9700 series but there is some questions I have around the dual-sim functionality and how that may vary between models.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5A Guides, News, & Discussion] nayefhaidir:
Hi guys , it is a common fact that kernel runs linux. Without kernel, linux won't be usable. One of linux family is Android. Okay, so after that preamble, i just want to share to you "How To Compile Kernel (Especially for Redmi Note 5A)"​

So, Let's start !​

Prerequisites	:

1. Laptop/PC with Linux installed (i prefer Ubuntu based distro, for other distributions i'll update if i have tested​

2. Already installed needed package (you'll see list below)​

3. Internet connection (Optional if you have prepared all)​

Stages	:

1. Install all needed packages by typing this command in terminal (if you encounter any error just delete the package that causes error)

sudo apt-get install git –core gnupg flex bison gperf libsdl-dev libesd0-dev libwxgtk2.6-dev build-essential zip curl libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev ia32-libs lib32z1-dev lib32ncurses5-dev gcc-multilib g++-multilib adb

2. Get the compiler(gcc) by typing this command in terminal

git clone <url> gcc

3. Get the kernel source from github or gitlab or whatever the service is by typing this command in terminal

git clone –b <branch name> https://github.com/xxx/xxx

Compile :

After all required components are ready, now let's start compiling our kernel. Run terminal in your kernel folder and type commands below :

1. First, we have to export(to tell the computer) the path of our compiler(gcc) by typing this command :

export CROSS_COMPILE=/home/<your host>/<gcc folder>/bin/<toolchain prefix>

Example :

export CROSS_COMPILE=/home/nayef/gcc/bin/aarch64-linux-android-

2. Second, we have to export(to tell the computer) the architecture for our devices. Fortunately Redmi Note 5A has ARM 64 bit architecture, so it should be "arm64".

export ARCH=arm64 && export SUBARCH=arm64

3. Third, before compiling, let's configure our devices configuration by using available defconfig, usually our devs name it "ugglite_defconfig", but from official Xiaomi source it is "ugglite_msm8937_defconfig" . There are many sources of Redmi Note 5A Kernel. PM me if you want the list.

make O=out <defconfig name>

Example:

make O=out ugglite_defconfig

4. Now, let's compile it by typing this commands below

make O=out -j4
