Magisk with Odin?

OEM unlock is usually in developer settings. Tap build number in about device section A bunch of times to enable.

From there... Yeah read the manual linked in post above.

You can only flash a patched boot.img with Odin. Or a .tar file version of a boot.img
[Magisk] 4MalDieHide:
I did, the issue was with the third step, "Flash the zip and reboot." I can't do this without OEM unlock being activated in my tablet's dev options, but it simply isn't there like it should be. Thanks though.
[Magisk] 4MalDieHide:
Yeah, what I meant was flashing a TWRP .tar custom recovery via Odin to install Magisk. I'm pretty new to this. I unlocked my tablets developer settings in order to turn on USB debugging. OEM unlock simply isn't there.

did you bought your tab with EMI or subscription based with some operator ? then you will not have this option as it is disabled by service provider

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] niteone:
how is the battery and performance someone who tried it ? and is it safe to wipe system ?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Saswata Chakraborty:
Battery life is amazing since the notorious Google Play Services is not present on this ROM. Performance is more or less the same. The main reason people use MicroG over other GApps is because of privacy and battery.

And talking about your last question, I guess you wipe System partition everytime you do a clean flash. So yeah, it's completely safe to wipe System partition.

Yes i tried it but cant sync my contacts because they are stored in google and other things but from my little expirience its great.i moved to the normal lineage now

You can easily get contacts.vcf file from google and just import it in your normal contacts app. Takes a minute only.

For some reason i won't get the UnifiedNLP working on my Poco F1.

I did a clean install, coming from the latest MIUI global ROM and followed the post install guide on https://lineage.microg.org/. The only additional Tool i installed was the latest Version of Magisk.

**EDIT**

I reinstalled microg LineageOS without Magisk, but it still does not work.

Any suggestions?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] crow6:
Most probably you've hit version with support for something called Qualcomm Location. It was fixed in build on 27th November because thingy was not working well (also because it is closed source soft).

AFAIK there are two ways to fix it:

- install LOS >=2711.

- patch framework-res.apk to force use UnifirdNlp. There should be some info about procedure in a LOS thread though I'm not 100% sure.

There is a guide to a variety of methods, but it is updated to 2014 ...

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2620456

Does anyone know whether TWRP can be installed via download mode via Odin for a Galaxy J4 (2018) or that there are security blocks that prevent the installation of unknown firmware (oem lock)?

If so, will the first method in the above guide (under the heading METHOD I) through the built-in recovery be useful here?

If not, is there any other method that will work here without resetting the device?

Thanks for your help
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fatal_Scythe:
There is a TWRP Recovery available, https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-j4+/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-3-1-galaxy-j4-j415f-t3876876 which is for the J4+ so I don't know if it'll work for your device. You can flash Recoverys only if the FRP Lock and/or the OEM Lock is disabled, they both probably will block the flashing process when they are activated. In TWRP you'll have to delete some files (something that has lockscreen.db as name or any similar files to that one) to unlock the Device without having to wipe all data.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ls3mach:
S8. Unlocked. Originally MetroPCS. Running on Cricket. The Pie update has broken my wife's Samsung Pay. It is saying locked. I've had similar happen (just use swipe to unlock) and have added a lock screen then removed it. This time around adding a lock screen hasn't worked. It still says it is locked and she can't pay. Haven't been able to find anyone else with this problem.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] 350Rocket:
How about Google pay? I used it no problems for a year or more on my OnePlus 5. When I drowned it in the ocean and bought an s8 to replace it I tried Samsung Pay to see if it was any good. It didn't work the 2 first times I tried it, possibly user error, possibly pie? I went to the Play store, gave it a 1 star rating and went back to google pay. Works perfectly almost always. It's not something I want to experiment with or figure out in a checkout line. Samsung Pay failed and I didn't give it another chance.

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] fast69mopar:
Hey guys. Stepped away from the forums for a while and I'm back lurking the forums again with a question.

My device is the TMO Moto Z2 Force XT1789-04 and I am running the stock ROM, 8.0.0,

OCXS27.1.5 with the January 2019 security patch. I am rooted with Magisk V19.0 on the stock kernel.

I'm almost certain I have seen my issue discussed before but I was unable to find it. Here's what happens...

When I perform a normal reboot by pressing the home button, my device reboots to the bootloader. Once I am in the bootloader I can press the power button to select "start" and my device boots normally into the OS.

This issue started when I recently switched from Magisk V17 to V18. I have returned to stock a few times to diagnose the issue with no luck. When my device is completely stock I do not have the issue. When rooted with any version of Magisk, I do.

Can anyone provide some insight for me please?
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] 41rw4lk:
I think the fb_mode is still set on, just issue 'fastboot oem fb_mode_clear' w/o quotes and that should solve it.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] fast69mopar:
Lemme give it a shot and I'll report back shortly with the results.

Do you know what would cause the change?
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] 41rw4lk:
Usually when you flash a stock firmware the 1st thing the flashall does is set fb_mode so that it can keep bootloader mode while flashing. Most likely the command to clear it was either not present, missed, or just didn't execute properly. It happens, but it's a simple remedy.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] fast69mopar:
first attempt at fastboot fb mode

I booted to fastboot and entered the command. Command went good. First reboot from fastboot with the fastboot reboot command sent me right back to the bootloader. I hit the power button to boot into the OS and let it boot up as usual. Next, I performed a reboot just using the power button and it rebooted normally. 2nd reboot with the power button took me back into the bootloader. I hit the power button to boot to the OS and it booted normally again. Im going to fastboot flash the command again to see if anything changes.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] 41rw4lk:
That's a little odd, maybe a vol btn is sticking? Issue the clear command again, then 'fastboot reboot bootloader', issue the clear command again, then reboot normally. All of that shouldn't be necessary, but if you still get pulled into booloader mode after all that then I'd inspect the buttons.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] H411UCIN093NIC:
I have been having this exact same issue for so long now.... I've tried everything I could ever possibly think of with no luck. I can fastboot boot into twrp. Ive tried every firmware as a flashall including other providers firmware just to take a shot at it. At this point I dont even care if I never get baseband back, I just want to have my moto Z2 back to play with lol.

PLEASE, let me know if you find a solution. Also Im on XT1789-04
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] 41rw4lk:
The solution is above, you have a whole other problem entirely. You've apparently (as you said) flashed every firmware you could find and borked your baseband and most likely your system. So long as you haven't done anything silly like lock your bootloader (I assume you haven't since you can boot twrp), you should be able to blankflash back to a clean slate and flash the appropriate firmware for your variant. TMO or ATT, whichever one you had originally.

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] fast69mopar:
all remaining attempts to reboot...

So far so good after issuing the fastboot commands for a 2nd time. fastboot oem fb_mode_clear has worked for me and it stuck. I have rebooted more than 40 times in the last 2 days to verify and all is working as it should. Thanks for the info bro!
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] H411UCIN093NIC:
I'll totally give that a shot. I tried the modified fastboot exe with the added reboot edl command with no luck. I'll let you know if what you suggested works.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] 41rw4lk:
Don't use the modified fastboot, just regular fastboot is all you need. Make sure you also have the blankflash.zip, most up-to-date firmware for your variant, and the qualcomm diag drivers. They're all around here, just search for them.

Hi,

I really miss the ir blaster from my note 4.

I've seen different external IR blasters that one can plug into the headphone Jack, or the USB C port. But I don't know if they work on the Note8. I've seen it working on a S8 on YouTube, but Samsung may have disabled something specifically on the Note8 that would prevent the external IR blasters to work. For instance, I've read the Note8 only supports OTG through that chunky USB C to USB adapter Samsung put in the Note8 box.

Please, if you have tested a IR blaster on the Note8 (not on other devices) comment about it, giving the model/brand you use, so that I and others like me know what we should buy.

Just for information, I'm on stock rom, not rooted, international Note8.

Thank you very much in advance for helping this noob that I am.

[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] rochrunner:
The reason I'm asking is that I'm looking to replace my Pixel 2, but it is not urgent. Right now, Google is offering $200 off a Pixel 3, which sounds like a good deal. However, they slyly have the sale ending on May 6, and on May 7 they will be announcing something new, which is of course rumored to be the Pixel 3a. So what to do?

I like all the features that the Pixel 3 has -- similar to my Pixel 2 actually -- but realistically I don't need or use a lot of them. For instance, nothing that I do requires the fastest processor out there; I don't really care what the case is made of since I put a bumper case on it right away; I use the camera mainly when traveling, but take fewer pictures than I used to; and I've taken about a half dozen selfies in my life!

So should I get a discounted 3 knowing that the 3a (IF that's what it is) might have something even better (like a bigger battery), or just forget it all and wait for the Pixel 4? What would you do?
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] uzayr99:
So, I got a free upgrade to the pixel 3 from the pixel 2 in January and honestly, if its not urgent I wouldn't recommend doing it.

Yes the pixel 3 camera is better, but the 2's camera still takes pictures comparable to any flagship, and I can't personally see a difference in the pictures I take day to day.

In terms of UI, I'd actually say the pixel 2 provided a smoother experience, though I've never seen the devices side by side so can't say so for sure. (other people have also suggested this is true)

Major thing for me is that I've experienced worse battery performance, especially when on standby mode, which I think is due to pie, as when upgrading from oreo to pie on my pixel 2 I saw similar results.

And its likely that the pixel 3 will see a price drop once the next gen pixel line is out anyway, so if price is a concern, I don't see why you shouldn't just wait it out either way
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
Forget it. Wait until the Pixel 4. The P3 has a lot of problems with the display and for $650 with tax it's simply not worth it.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] rochrunner:
Thanks all for the intelligent, reasonable advice (hard to come by online these days!). I've decided to wait until the P4 is out since I can always fall back to whatever the May 7 product is, or a reduced P3. Price is not really a factor from an absolute standpoint, but I don't want to pay more for something that what it's worth to me. In any case, Fall is a much better time for me to get a new device since I'll be curtailing my summer activities by then and will be looking for something to occupy my time for a while.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] BackCheck:
No. I mostly love the phone but the lack of proper 60fps on the camera needing me to use 3rd party apps to get usable video kills it for me.
