Have you attempted a temp root method?

A friend and I are able to grant read write access to system through terminux, but not fully sure the aproach from here. We are keeping logs of everything we are doing but even if we find a route in we don't have a twrp img or boot img that would work.

We are attempting the root on a N975U1UES2ASJ8 XAA version because of the downgrading further issue.

Doesn't sound stupid at all This Is America and we have less options on our phones than China does??? Where is the logic here...This is something we need to stand up for...I mean think of it like this what if Microsoft locked down any computer it was installed on...Its the same idea, I dont care if I lease the phone or own it I should be allowed to root day 1
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] sw1173:
I agree! If you lease you don't have the right to alter the lessor's property without their permission. If you own your house, car whatever you have the legal right to alter, mod it. I have said before with the same SOC in the Chinese models of Samsung devices their government forced Samsung to provide a BL unlocking tool or not sell anymore devices in China.

If you read the Terms and Conditions when you start your new phone we cant sue for the same rights as they have in China. We have to go to arbitration not big boy's court. There must be a way to force a class action. If so I'm in. I don't care about their 1 yr. warranty since they break your b**ls to get the damn things repaired.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] tambot:
Maybe setting the property properly will help

ro.boot.flash.locked is not the proper property setting and i believe if you try ro.boot_flash_locked=0 it may produce more desired results. i believe it was android oreo the incorporated the undescores and it has continued to be more prevalant since. just a thought though

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] sw1173:

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Dart_Z28:

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Joshument:
Not yet but theres people out here who can do it with enough time
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] sremick:
Unfortunately that same thinking is why I never had a stable custom ROM running on my S7. The next major version of Android kept showing up sooner than they could get a custom ROM based on the previous version stable, so it was always a perpetual cycle of buggy ROMs. Every time I'd bring up a chronic and systemic issue, I'd be told "yes the devs know about that but they're not going to spend any more time looking into it since the next major version of Android will be out in a few months so they're going to focus on that".

The fact is, the time to figure out root/unlocked bootloader is likely to always be longer than the lifecycle of a model until the next iteration. So at some point, it just needs to be deemed "worth it" even if it's an older model. Some of us indeed hold on to a phone for 3 or 4+ years... and would longer if a custom ROM continued to make it viable.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] sw1173:
I completely agree with you. The real issue is that Samsung locks the bootloader. If they didn't then we could keep our phones and just upgrade the software. If you look at the international version, there are devs providing kernels that don't suck the battery etc. Rooting should be up to the owner not the vendor.

In the /e/OS community forums is a user who will attempt to build the ROM for users as long as the device is still supported by Lineage. If nothing else one can at least get a build for the phone to play with. Having regular builds would be nice though.
[LG G Flex 2] h815r:
My flex 2 was on 5.1.1. I was trying to use it with "Open Camera Remote" (a wifi triggered camera app) and would get an error where the app couldn't connect to the camera. But if I ran the native camera app first, Open Camera would work.

So I upgraded to 6.0.1

With 6.0.1 the camera would take a while to load with the native app, then it stopped working at all. Just a black screen.

Did a factory reset but it didn't help.

What seemed to fix it was removing all the permissions from the native camera app, then running the camera app (without permissions) and re-enabling the permissions as prompted.

Now both the native camera app and Open Camera (Remote) load quickly and are responsive.

I can't explain why this worked :confused: but maybe it will help someone.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Gabmiral:
have a rooted Honor 8 (FRD-L09).

So, I installed the new Magisk. I have been prompted to reboot.

So, I rebooted, and my phone asked me my password for decrypting the OS. I never encrypted the system. I tried 0000, my pin and others, but nothing did it, so I factory reset my phone.

The system did not load.

I looked up online for custom ROMs to boot, but none of them worked.

And that's my big errir : I wiped /system partition because it was a recurring error.

Now I have a bricked phone, with no OS on it.

What to do ?

[Xiaomi Mi 4C] el_narco:
Hello,

I have installed xiaomi eu ROM (android 7 and MIUI 9.5) for some months.

In last weeks I got a lot of CPU consumption draining my batt quickly, probably caused by an app. I have test different apps, however none of them show %cpu by process/app. I have read Google don't "let hardware access" for these data from version 6 and that is the reason. Is it like that? With root, would be the same result?

Now, I have done a software reset but I am thinking about test some new ROM (without MIUI), what will be the best recommended ROM nowadays for stability and performance: Lineage OS, AEX... and what version?

I dont mind Android version, I prefer stability, performance, battery optimized and without MIUI.

Thanks
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] Masinac:
I would say go with Lineage OS, it has regular updates, it's super stable, no problems with it, everything works and it's fast.

Also if battery life is priority then try going without gapps.

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] kewinhw:
When we are on stock OOS (before unlocking the bootloader also) with no root or any modifications. Then the EFS partition is completely untouched.

Whenever we are flashing anything a mod a rom or whatever some zips can damage the efs partition. Even though it has only happened to me on a Samsung device before never in a OP device. I'm still wondering if after we have flashed things is the Efs partition still untouched?

So if I made a backup of it after flashing a ROM is it the exact same EFS as when I was on STOCK OOS?
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] JonesL:
The EFS contains the modem and IMEI, the backup will be the same as long as you haven't modified the EFS.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] kewinhw:
Okey thanks :) The EFS and modem partitions have different very sizes. So the efs can't contain the modem or am I wrong? There is Bluetooth, dsp and modem files inside the modem backup folder and only efs files in efs backup folder.

[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] Hamza5682:
There is none as you can't unlock the bootloader.

In all honesty you made a huge mistake if you bought the phone so you could simply install a stock rom on it. If that were the case then you should've gone with the OnePlus 6t
[Honor View 20 Questions & Answers] garris_bibop:
Not completely true, I was able to unlock the bootloader. So were a few other people. I bought the code from funky huawei, who doesn't seem to sell codes for the View 20 anymore :( Don't know if there are other sites...

Concerning roms, i only tried the ones from OpenKirin (Omni and Resurrection). The "stock feeling" is there but they are missing some features i really want to have. In addition, the camera is not nearly as good as the stock one. At the moment i am staying with Magic UI + Root. The guys from OpenKirin are doing a good job though, don't get me wrong :)

Magisk and Data

Thank you for share your work TheCapesCrew. I Just download the rom and I should flash it today.

I'd like to know if it already comes with magisk or if I can follow the standard procedure to install it.

Should I use the boot.img inside your rom, or the original from ASUS website to add magisk to the system?

And there's anyway to flash your rom without data loss?

I'm currently with version WW_ZS551KL_15.0410.1812.95_0 version with magisk 19.2 and TWRP 3.2.3-0-Z01G on my Zenfone 4 pro.

Thank you so much!
[Asus ZenFone 4 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] TheCapesCrew:
You should be able to flash right over. I would stick with my bootloader since it matches the kernel version and recovery kernel. The recovery I included has the correct kernel also. I actually compiled a twrp that's newer. 3.3.1, just haven't published it yet.

[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] 1jsin4e:
Does anyone one know if the new Pixel 3a supports this or screen mirroring??? Its been my biggest set back from getting these phone and saw that its said USB 3.1 which supports it, so Im hopefull.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] Pak0St:
No hard confirmation yet. I'm sure SomeGadgetGuy will give a proper update at some point just not sure when we can expect it :)

No, the Pixel 3a is USB 2.0, not 3.1 (you can check Google's page for the device).

One of the previous threads did point out that the last Google sponsored phone which supported HDMI output was indeed the Nexus 5. At the time around the Nexus 5X/6P, it could've been argued that it was due to Cast capability (and forcing you to get that ChromeCast or AndroidTV). For the original Pixel - there hasn't been much movement on the Android side but lots of helpful additions to support ChromeOS.

I'm not so sure if the lack of display output over USB C will be taken as lightly for the Pixel 2/3 gen devices with all desktop mode info coming out.

For the Pixel 3a/ 3a XL, the price does play a factor and it won't be a big shock if the feature has been omitted. It's not something to be happy about but it's something which can be easy to understand.

[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] spoonhonda:
Everyone was saying that it wasn't possible, but I finally figured out how to do it on my Pixel 3a XL! I uploaded a YouTube video so that people could see it actually is possible. Just search YouTube for the video title, "Pixel 3 to HDMI Video Output (using a WIRED adapter)" Basically you need to use a DisplayLink certified USB video adapter. I recommend that you get a newer adapter than the one I used because the frame rate dropped pretty bad at full screen and it put out really choppy/laggy video. I also tested it out on a USB-C powered DisplayLink certified monitor with the newer DisplayLink graphics chipset and the video was real smooth at full screen playback and while gaming.

Oh and you will also have to install the "DisplayLink Presenter" app/driver on your Pixel 2/3/4 phone from the Google Play Store.

Hope this helps! :)
