[MENTION=4496560]DAANDAV[/MENTION] formate data is your solution
[Sony Xperia XZs ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] DAANDAV:
No because when I do, I in essence do a factory reset, so after formatting data partition it will do a first boot again and after TWRP will again aks for password. I cannot seem to decrypt data partition.

---------- Post added at 11:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:25 AM ----------

Yes, after I install this rom and newest TWRP, each time after first boot, data partition gets encrypted by android and TWRP asks for password even without any password/pin/pattern set in android. It cannot decrypt data partition. Formatting data partition will not help since it will do a factory reset where-after the first boot, it will get encrypted again.

I don't know why but every times I fastboot twrp I will get stuck at sony logo (G8232 Oreo and Nougat) I just want to root :( hzzz

[Sony Xperia XZs ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] amirzaim:
Why the hell you're attempting to flash a custom ROM using different Xperia model? I never built a ROM for that model!

Rooting an Xperia device is far complex than any kind of a device with simpler process. You will need a lot of work to do during rooting process. Do it at your own risk.
[Sony Xperia XZs ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Oknin:
Sorry . Sony XZs G8233
[Sony Xperia XZs ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] martinbook85:
I had the problem that my screen was all black after I tried to flash this. I could press the side-button and the phone would light up for a second, just long enough to see that android was there. Then it got all black again. I tried to redo it but to no avail.

Flashed back to stock now but I really need a custom ROM to get it functioning properly. I seem to not be able to get any of the ones in this forum to work.
[Sony Xperia XZs ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] &(*):
Which version do you own G8231 or G8232? Is the camera a necessity or can you live without it? I can recommend the best rom for this from my experience, but the steps involved to flash it can be tricky.
[Sony Xperia XZs ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] martinbook85:
G8231

The camera is a nice feature, but right now I do not care so much about the camera (I use an XA2 Ultra with Sailfish OS as a daily driver).

Would love the help you could provide.

Thanks!

Cordially,

Martin Book

Since your's is a single sim I do not know if it will work, but you can try: https://xdaforums.com/t/unofficial-lineage-18-1-for-xperia-xz-treble.4263839/page-6 ,and download it from one of the Google drive links. I've read user's installed it on their single sim and it works. I had the build running on a dual sim and it is practically flawless. Sjll makes pretty stable builds and the XZ and XZs share the same kernel with only the camera being the main difference. If it doesn't work out, you will have to revert the device back to an XZs. Try first, and if it doesn't work let me know and I'll provide the steps to get it back to an XZs. You may need to use a special TWRP posted here to flash it, but I'm not sure if it's necessary anymore: https://sx.ix5.org/files/builds/kagura/misc/twrp-3.2.1-0-kagura-ab-x.img . Trust me, it's safe enough to perform the switch between the two devices as I have done it.
[Sony Xperia XZs ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] dinosaur99:
Hi there,

I also own a G8231 and I just unlocked the bootloader a couple of days ago :geek:

After trying yesterday Pie from this thread, I just tried the rom for XZ that you suggested above. To be honest it's actually pretty smooth, but unfortunately camera doesn't work.

In my case the camera is a priority, and I'm actually curious about what rom you would currently suggest. I read here and there that stock Oreo is best for camera compatibility (pictures were very noisy with Pie), but still hope to find a more recent installation.

As a side note, I have my TA backup, in case that could help with Drmfix or anything.

So basically, is there any rom with decent camera support besides Oreo, or any possible workaround to enable the camera?

Thanks!
[HTC Excalibur] daleksic:
I have set my Dash to 240MHz from i guess the standard 201MHz, however it doesn't seem to be any faster. I've tried multiple tasks at the same time and I just can't feel a difference in speed.

On the system info it always shows 201MHz regardless to what clock i set it. I also don't notice a difference in battery consumption.

How can i check if the Dash is indeed OCed that what I set it to?
[HTC Excalibur] ruinertt:
The only way is to look at OMAPClock I do believe.
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
The only way I know is to go back into OMAPClock and check what setting you have it on. I don't know of a way to see the current clock settings. I can say this-- Your phone's speed greatly depends on the number of applications and programs you have running simultaneously. If you have a lot of stuff going on at once, then you may not notice the difference in speed from 201mhz because the 240mhz is absorbing all of this activity. I noticed a change in my phone's speed when I first o/ced it (significant enough for me to notice a difference), but after a while my S620 became loaded down with all kinds of programs as I began exploring the wonderful world of modding. Now it runs at a decent speed.
[HTC Excalibur] daleksic:
I keep my phone very light. Only on there what I really use. The OMAP says 240. I'll keep it at 240 for now and see what happens. If I can see reduced Battery life over the next few weeks I guess it must be working. I'm not sure if I can go 1 step higher.

My old dash burned out on a hot Florida Spring day with a (I believe 252 OC). So I'm also kinda worried about the heat (internal/external), but as far as I read everything should be just fine at 240MHz.
[HTC Excalibur] gixxum:
you can benchmark it using sktools
[HTC Excalibur] runningerin:
Please give path to the OMAPClock? Thanks!
[HTC Excalibur] Rip Syntaxx:
Start -> Accessories -> OMAPClock
[HTC Excalibur] gixxum:
you can also just open up tcpmp player and go to options > settings. it wil show your clock speed
[HTC Excalibur] runningerin:
Thanks! I found it in tcpmp!
[HTC Excalibur] gizzmo09:
It runs stable at 240MHz :)
[HTC Excalibur] runningerin:
I have read every thread I could find on overclocking the Dash here in xda. I have T-Mobile 6.0 Standard and would like to overclock. Could some helpful person please tell me which program(s) I need to do this? I'm assuming OMAPClock (which version?) and anything else? My Dash is app unlocked already. Thanks in advance!
[HTC Excalibur] satru:
wm6.1 coming with a lot of feature inside how omapclock, install it.
[HTC Excalibur] runningerin:
I'm not quite ready to upgrade to WM 6.1 with some problems I've read about. I did, though, download OMAPCLock and it works great! The small problem is that it is buried in File Explorer, and I would like a shortcut on the Start Menu. Not being a programmer (like most of you), I don't know what "arguments, file paths, etc." are. I can't copy and paste to Windows\Start Menu cuz it won't let me. Is there another way without getting Total Commander cuz I don't really want to keep adding programs to my Dash that aren't absolutely necessary?
[HTC Excalibur] runningerin:
Never mind. The Surreal Networks OMAPCLock app gives me the Start Menu shortcut and Homescreen Icon. The first OMAP program I dl'd was from freeware.com and will not delete. It says there is a sharing violation. Anyone know how I can get it off my phone?

[General Questions and Answers] milleniumdroid:
So back in December I got the Oreo update for my CAT S41. Everything seemed fine (phone got snappier despite removal of Mediatek sports mode,etc...) until I loaded GTA San Andreas. It seems that the Oreo update made the game LAGGY! I didn't think much of it, until a few days ago when reinstalled 3DMark (had it deleted before since I didn't need it) in order to compare my phone to some newer devices for fun. I checked the database scores for my phone and was HORRIFIED when I saw that for Oreo it got a score of 85 and on Nougat it got a nice decent 694 . I run the test myself and sure enough it was a complete slideshow and the score was only 88 (I remember it being just under 700 on Nougat, just like the database shows). looking at the individual scores confirmed my suspicions that something was up with the GPU. I tweeted to CAT about this and they haven't responded (usually they respond to me quickly). I talked to some guys over on Android Central and they think it is a bug or optimization issue on Mediatek's part. I highly doubt it is planned obsolescence since, as far as I've seen so far, it only affects GTA and 3DMark . What is additionally annoying is that 3DMark now claims I have no Vulkan support, which I know is not true since I've used Vulkan demos in the past on my phone. Any additional info on what might be the issue with this GPU misbehaviour situation would be highly appreciated.

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] TheArchangel123:
Hey guys,

Im quite new to android and all that comes with it regarding flashing roms. Now i've had the mi mix 3 cn version since october and been wanting to flash to the global rom ever since. So far i have unlocked the bootloader only on my Mix 3. Now Ive started doing some experimenting with an old one plus 1 device of mine before i fully try it on my mix 3 (and **** it up) and so far been able to unlock bootloader and install twrp. But it seems i cant get through the rooting part because every time i download supersu.zip (on my mac) it doesnt actually show as a zip file. So when i copy/paste it into the oneplus directory and try to install through twrp, basically nothing happens because its not a zip file. Is the solution as simple as: " i should just download the same file using Windows??"

Magisk:

in order to root my my Mix 3 and Oneplus 1 i need to install and run Magisk. But after installing it and opening it, it always says 'Magisk is not installed" and under that "Magisk Manager installed".

Question 1: How to fix this.....

Question 2: Do i need to root my Mix 3 in order to flash the global rom?

Currently running MIUI 10.2 Stable 10.2.2.0(PEECNXM)

Many thanks!

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] jcsww:
You do not need to root your device to flash it to the Global ROM. Unless you need root for something specific, I would suggest forgetting about TWRP and root and using fastboot to flash to the Global ROM. You can find the fastboot flashing guide, here. Click on fastboot, read the instructions, download the correct fastboot image for the Mi Mix 3, unzip it, boot your device into fastboot, connect it via USB to a Windows based machine, and run the flash_all.bat. The device will reboot when finished.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] TheArchangel123:
Thanks!

Ok thanks! Will definitly check it out. However i would like to get twrp working as well even just for the sake of it. But every time after i do the "reboot flash recovery rocovery.img" cmd it keeps booting into either the normal OS or into fastboot mode. Ive read about installing the force disable encryption zip file but how do i install that if i cant boot into twrp?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] jcsww:
Which TWRP are you flashing? When I was attempting to root my Chinese Mi Mix 3 running the GLobal Stable ROM, it was very hit and miss getting TWRP to stick. I couldn't get fastboot reboot-recovery to work for me so I had to power the device off after flashing TWRP and then hold Volume Up and Power until it vibrates again to get it into TWRP.

To root in that particular situation (Chinese device/Global ROM), you need to flash this region hiding thing right after you flash root. My device kept bootlooping so I gave up and used fastboot to debloat the ROM, which took a few minutes compared to the almost hour I spent on trying to get TWRP to stick and try to get the device rooted. This is one of my many gripes with Magisk root and how inferior it is to Chainfire's discontinued implementation.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] TheArchangel123:
Final stage!

Ok so my last post can be ignored as i was finally able to boot into twrp and also installed magisk so now my device is rooted.

I have now uploaded MIMIX3GLOBAL_V10.2.2.0 PEEMIXM into my phones directory.

Now before i install it thru twrp.... Do i need to wipe/erase/clean my phone first? Or can i just install it without doing so?

Many thanks in advance!
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] jcsww:
You can dirty flash it. It's just a minor update. The current beta will bring some new features though, once it is released in the next stable version.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] TheArchangel123:

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] Mackay53:
You can't dirty flash it...

Wipe in twrp

Install zip in twrp

format data in twrp

Reboot

If you want to root it you'll need the hardware origin magisk module that's somewhere in the mix 3 forums

Region, china?!

So i just clean flashed my phone and then formatted the data and rebooted. After i chose my language i have to choose my region, and the only option it gives me is China!????
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] Mackay53:
China has the most content, it's not a bad thing. All themes become available etc
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] TheArchangel123:
ok fair enough. However I have a situation now... after installing the process goes into a loop after selection china as region. The last small message it gives is "find device quit unexpectedly" and then it loops for 5 minutes untill it boots into recovery mode. Here i can only choose boot system (which will go into the same loop again), wipe data, or connect to MIUI assistent...

What did i do wrong?? Did i flash the wrong rom?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] jcsww:
When cross-flashing, clean/factory reset is always the way to go. With TWRP though, there seems to be some sort of region options not changing issue. There are a few ways to work around it I personally never bothered with, but I have flashed two Chinese devices via fastboot with the Global Stable ROM and haven't ran into the region issue at all.

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers] jcsww:
Fastboot is the bootloader. Once you boot your device into the bootloader (Volume Down + Power), you can use ADB through the command prompt to flash TWRP or just flash the Global ROM properly. This thread on it is still very relevant and useful.

Hi guys

I made this app which is currently in Beta. I've had a lot of downloads and I received two emails recently, one to say the app does not work on the S8, and the other to say the app does not work on the Note 8. So I tested my app on the Samsung Remote Test Lab and it seems to be working fine on the S8. I am wondering about the Note 8, as I wasn't able to test Pie on it.

I then thought of asking the S8 and Note 8 forums for help. If you are on Android Pie, could you please try the app and let me know if it does what it is supposed to?

Hey so, I'm on a note 8 running pie and ive got some information regarding the application.

If you turn DND On

Select Priority Only mode

Enable messages and alarms

(And then check the permissions through Samsung settings)

Everything is fine so far.

But if you then go into priority settings and change anything

It will disregard what you previously selected (in this case messages and alarms)

I will screen record and post it here if you would like.

So I've been digging into this a little and it appears to be a bug with Samsung's Clipboard History service. I can't figure out how to disable it. I tried disabling a few things using ADB with no luck. If you go into your clipboard history and "Delete All" it will no longer be an issue. I don't know if anyone knows how, but if there's a non-root method to remove Samsung's clipboard service it'll 'fix' the issue for now.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Tel864:
Clipboardsaveservice could be disabled with Package Disabler Pro, maybe that would do it.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] vahdyx:
Sadly I already disabled it using ADB method to no avail. I mean I could give it a try though. I'd have to re-enable it and see if it stops it.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] ptheguy:
If I delete all the clipboard, I still get a pop-up with the "auto fill" option.

I too have heard that this is a problem with the March update. I hope it's a problem as well, and not a feature.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] vahdyx:
Yeah, I discovered this shortly after my post. I wasn't using the autofill service at first. But if you get rid of your password autofill service it'll go away lol.
