[Samsung Galaxy A8+ (2018) Questions & Answers] omarrrio:
As title says, is that normal ?

I downloaded A730FXXU3BSA2 from sammobile for my samsung a8+, flashed it, but now it shows me a baseband of A730FXXU2BRG1, is that normal ? because i live in morocco and that baseband belongs to serbia, i also have two battery submenus in settings, one that shows up completely in black, unmanageable (nothing works when i select anything), the other is normal, not to mention that i see T Roaming in the submenu list, some insight on this would be helpful, thank you very much.

I attached a few images describing my problem, My phone is rooted with magisk lastest 18.1.

it looks like you have flashed "Korean based firmware". KT is a Korean telecom company. Tried to reset the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy A8+ (2018) Questions & Answers] omarrrio:
Thank you for your reply, could it be that me flashing AP only caused this ? Also tried resetting the phone more than once, stays like this.
[Samsung Galaxy A8+ (2018) Questions & Answers] sinkoo1979:
I think you need to get original a8+ firmware (4 files). The root will be gone but you will be in stock (make sure you go on to stock recovery and reset again).

Hey guys, it's my first topic over here, hope is in the right place. :D

So, my doubt is that out of a sudden my notifications stopping grouping by contact, in the whatsapp for example.

Normally they show like this;

Contact Name (3 Messages)

Test 1

Test 2

Test 3

But now is like this: (is also in the attached print)

Contact Name Test 1

Contact Name Test 2

Contact Name Test 3

I already try to reinstall the stock ROM, tried a custom ROM like S9 port (SAC23) and HyperROM, but this one I could not install. Then I went back to stock android Oreo 8.0.0 but the notifications continue not grouping.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S7 (G930F) Exynos

If someone has some solution to go back to grouping messages I will appreciate a lot.

Thanks!

As you probably know, Smartlock has been bugged and working oddly for a long time now.

With my latest 2 phones (s8 and s9) I used a workaround, you would have your home location disabled, and then you would manually set a location, that way it worked for about 24 hours, at that point you would have to remove the old location and set a new one.

With my 10+ I have a new problem, sometimes (happned few times so far in the last month), even doing so doesnt work, you actually have to restart your phone and only then it starts working again.

Now, having to set a new location every 24hours was annoying, but manageable somehow. I really hate when I have to restart the phone as well to make it work.

Any of you know if theres a way to fix smart lock for good? And if not, any idea why sometimes i even have to restart the phone as well?

Thank you!

[LG K20 Plus Questions & Answers] dddiam:
I have two issues with my MetroPCS LG K20 Plus and my Windows 10 computer.

The phone has debugging mode enabled, but is not rooted.

(1) I cannot see any Android files on Windows File Explorer via USB. The device shows up, but no folders. I also do not seem able to use any Android-to/from-PC apps that communicate across the USB cable.

(2) I am struggling to find a portable way to cast my phone screens to a Windows 10 PC. I have tried Bluetooth, but the related Android Settings options appear to be missing. I can pair to the PC successfully. The PC shows the Bluetooth connection as "Connected", but the phone shows "Connecting" for a while, and is then unconnected.

Can you suggest ways to enable this functionality?

I cannot install PC software to do it because I might be in an environment where I do not have access to the WiFi network, or am unable to install software or browser extensions or drivers on the PC. I cannot use WiFi for file access for the same reason. Cloud access from a public PC is a security risk.

It seems that LG (or perhaps MetroPCS) is deliberately trying to thwart casting and USB file access, and I cannot think of why they would do that.

Hello guys, im facing this problem and maybe u all can help me,

actually i got motorola one (not power) and i noticed this function multi-user with up to 5 users isollated. so i wanna increase this number of accounts up to 10, i know its possible, but can i do it without rooting?

or if only rooting is possible, is there a way to unroot 100%? because some apps detect im rooting.

can i acess "build.pro" and edit it without rooting too?

i also own a samsung j7 prime and followed tutorial below and worked very well with a little downsides, its detectable by some apps including banks apps

Any help is welcome

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-j7/how-to/multi-user-samsung-galaxy-j7-j5-t3217939

Step 1. Open FileExplorer (Es file explorer, preferable)

Step 2. Go to "Device"

.

Search for "build.prop"

Edit and add the below string at the end of the editor and save and reboot !

fw.max_users=10

fw.show_multiuserui=1
[Motorola One Questions & Answers] baj24:
You'll need root to edit build.prop.

Yes you need root to find build.prop. But you can extract build prop using adb pull location in twrp and edit it on PC, then reinstall firmware *DONT UNROOT VIA MAGISK ALMOST HARDBRICKED MY MOTO ONE* when your done reinstalling firmware then use adb push location build.prop

"But you can extract build prop using adb pull location in twrp and edit it on PC, then reinstall firmware *DONT UNROOT VIA MAGISK ALMOST HARDBRICKED MY MOTO ONE* when your done reinstalling firmware then use adb push location build.prop"

With this method root is needed? is there any tutorial so i can follow your instruction and put it to work? i know how to use adb and insert commands at cmd.

i found this firmware https://www.getdroidtips.com/motorola-one-android-pie-update/ , this one is the correct for my mobile. can i edit this rom (build.prop) and flash it to work with above 5 users? what you think?
[Motorola One Questions & Answers] Amaterasus:
with my searchs i found the pull push command, https://www.**********.com/push-pull-files-android-using-adb-commands/

so basically, run adb look for the build.prop and pull it to adb folder, edit the file into pc to 10 users (fw.max_users=10) save, adb push command and done, reboot? thats right ?

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Droid_Nut:
For some reason ever since I reset my 2 XL last week, I am unable to upload to Dropbox. Titanium Backup Sync ends with a network error, so does Dropsync, ES File Manager, Folder Sync, etc.

I did just try a network reset only on the phone, and that did not resolve the issue either? :p

What could be causing this??
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Droid_Nut:
My uploads work with Google Drive on the Pixel, I moved 914 files with Titanium Sync. I also fired up my old Nexus 6P and was able to Sync about 500 files to Dropbox with no problem on that phone. Is there something that I should delete and reinstall that might fix Dropbox uploads on my Pixel? I am thinking I might have restored something with TTBU that I shouldn't have is the cause of my problem?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Droid_Nut:
So it automagically worked itself out, and now syncing the dropbox is working fine! :victory:

Thank you for your continued work and support for TWRP.

Just to confirm the process if we want root and are already rooted -

follow your steps to root the new TWRP Image you posted today and zip it as a tar file in 7Zip

Flash rooted twrp in Odin

Reboot to Recovery

Format Data

Flash New Disabeler Script

Format Data again

Reboot in recovery (to reboot into magisk

Is that correct? (I read somewhere the other day that we needed to wipe again AFTER flashing the Disabler script and I didn't know if that was really necessary or if someone had mispoke?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Geekser:
Sorry to bother you but I have been trying to do as your OP outlines - but everytime I create a TAR File using the TWRP you provided patched with Magisk, when I try to flash in ODIN - nothing happens. The file won't flash. I have started over 5 times - created new Patched images in Magisk each time - but for some reason I am not having any luck getting this to flash in odin.

Can I flash the MAgisk patched Recovery Image in TWRP ?

EDIT - I answered my own question - I went ahead and tried to flash in TWRP and it flashed perfectly. All is good. But still curoiuos why I couldn't get the Patched Twrp File to fliash via odin - ?

Great work Ian greatly appreciated that your placing your time into the community.

Don't copy me (got lazy) but I currently had twrp, so I just patched (the new img) flashed in Odin, and all appears to be good.....:p
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] tiho5:
Thank you for the decision to do this.

I made some backups on v3.3.0-0 and I believe /vendor was also included. Would there be anything wrong with these backups made on v3.3.0-0 now that I see such a line in the changelog? Did /vendor not backup correctly on TWRP 3.3.0-0?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] tiho5:
So it is /vendor and /vendor image like with with system and system image. I flashed the latest TWRP and saw this..

But my Magisk manager patches my recoveries. badly

This is the 3rd time this happens to me.

After patching v3.3.0-1 i used the dd command to flash it. Then booted in TWRP, confirmed it was v3.3.0-1 and even made me a backup.

But I rebooting to rooted system isn't possible. The phone only boots to recovery no matter what. So I flashed patched v3.3.0-0 back. Things worked and booted to system. There I found that this latest "magisk_patched.img" is ~6 mb less than the raw "twrp-beyond2lte-3.3.0-1_ianmacd.img"

So I patched again. And again the produced "magisk_patched.img" was the same as the first one. How can I help myself here?

My Magisk Manager is 7.1.1 -54d1207f (207)

I am attaching the log file from MM for patching process .
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] PiCkLeS:
When that symptom shows, only booting to recovery no matter what, it is always a sign that the recovery you flashed wasn't patched with Magisk.

Are you sure you are flashing the right file? I don't use dd but if you have Odin available, try instead to tar that magisk_patched.img and flash that tar in Odin instead.

Because if you are sure that the IMG is patched alright, then something with dd is not working.

/P

Edit: The shrinking you observe is normal and is as expected.. so it should be patched and then I suspect something in the process of using dd.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] tiho5:
No mate... The patching process is done right, I'm sure. And I also tried with Odin before I posted although I was sure it was not going to help. The recovery simply doesn't get patched right for some reason. This happened to me a few times before.

There is a log attached and one can see what happened and if I'm doing anything wrong (which indeed I doubt).

And also the patched files that I had done successfuly were more or less the same size as the raw file, only slightly bigger. This time it's not like that at all.

I was sure there's no working Magisk in that package.

The dd commands work and they're very convenient. I've used them for years. After I dd'd it, I indeed booted to the new recovery, saw that it's the new version, saw the changed things, the alphabetic order, even made a backup.

I didn't look much at the log file as it doesn't make too much sense to me, but I sure hope that Ian could investigate it.

Thanks anyway, mate.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ianmacd:
Your log file shows this:

- Unpacking boot image
Parsing boot image: [/data/user_de/0/com.topjohnwu.magisk/install/boot.img]

It appears you patched a boot image, not a recovery image. Further output in the log show that it was, indeed, treated as a boot image, not a recovery image.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] chalofito:

[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] psyafter:
Thank you.

After putting file in system/lib - no more freezes and fc. But after phone restart - file removed again.

I copied file again, rebooted to twrp, checked the file - and it missing in system/lib.

I disabled all xposed modules and xposed itself and after reboot file removed again.

I disabled all magisk modules and after reboot file was in place.

I started enabling magisk modules one by one with reboots (libsecure, riru core, edxposed, vanished youtube), and file still in place.

So I enabled back edxposed and all modules, and file is no longer deleted after rebootes.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] c3k:
my phone is booting to root system by default

this is a side effect of an odin update: during the flash of a multi-csc firmware something is set to force the device to go in recovery during next boot to complete the installation moving / deleting some files, since the recovery is modified my device is automatically booting to the rooted system

I've try to navigate the forlders looking for a zip file that triggers the recovery, with no luck (on S8 I think was /cache/recovery/sec_omc.zip, triggered by /cache/recovery/command)

I've entered the stock recovery (since my csc is actually not installed) but for some reason (topjohnwu mod?) stock installation is not completing, so I have a nice situation where stock system is the default boot.

Don't know if [MENTION=4470081]topjohnwu[/MENTION] and [MENTION=7187684]ianmacd[/MENTION] knows this behavior, maybe yes, otherwise I'm available for any test hoping this could be a piece for a better root management.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ianmacd:
Almost none at the moment. I currently have no patches in my version that aren't in his.

Sometimes, one of my builds is slightly ahead of John's latest by a few commits. That's why some people prefer my builds. They tend to come out a little more often and are therefore even more bleeding edge.

Yes.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] moodi.qh:
Dears,

After around 20 times trying to do all this instructions I found there is small issue.

normal reboot is booting without magisk.

use combo keys and release when Samsung screen appear booting with magisk.

same twrp scenario before.

any one try please from those not successfully booting with magisk.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] aussiesausage:
Do some searching and reading back a few pages.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] c3k:
I can confirm that creating a /cache/recovery/command empty file is enough to boot to rooted system without key combo.

It need to be done after each restart and didn't work if rebooted from power menu.

Still don't know:

what is deleting the file, since it's not processed by recovery

what was triggering the recovery during the incomplete fw update (above, now fixed) since that file was not present

Anyway this should be useful, where we can put a "touch /cache/recovery/command" line (on boot) to make the root system the default option?

I was wrong, see below
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ianmacd:
A number of people have reported that their S10 device now boots straight to rooted Android. This is not a new feature of Magisk. John has confirmed this.

What's happening here is that the device has detected a problem during normal system boot, so it boots to recovery instead to allow the user to effect repairs. However, on these devices, we're hijacking recovery to boot through to Android, so the device simply boots via this longer route.

The user experience is that we have a cool new feature allowing us to skip holding down the hardware keys to boot rooted, but the cause is actually some kind of breakage on the device. Why so many of us are suddenly experiencing this is currently unknown.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] c3k:
The problem you're talking about could be a (multi CSC) fw flashed on device with a different native CSC. This was my case and could be a common situation, the software notice the missing CSC and goes to recovery, where normally the installation of CSC happen.

I hope you'll find a way to "tame" this behaviour and eliminate the boot key combo.

Creating a /cache/recovery/command file on boot would be a good workaround, any suggestions on where to put the command?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ianmacd:
That's definitely not the case on at least some of the affected devices. I haven't flashed anything new to my device in the last few weeks, except for TWRP.

That won't help you, because only stock recovery or TWRP uses that file, and to get there you have to hold the keys down.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] c3k:
You're right, my tests were incomplete.

The phone boots in root system even without /cache/recovery/command.

Seems that:

power off from magisk-system => power up to recovery

power off from stock system => power up to stock system

reboot from magisk-system (power menu) => power up to stock system

Do you actually have Magisk? Is the same for you?
