[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] cisco kidd:
All current devices will continue to receive security updates and access to google play, Future devices may not but as it appears Google and Huawei are working together. Of course everything published is negative is that not the way it always is? Doom and gloom first then reality. I just bought a P30 Pro on device upgrade yesterday for cheap 350 in canada and my mthly plan stayed pretty much the same as it ws prior, in fact I got more data , I am in Canada. I am not too concerned, in fact if I opt for the Mate 20 I can save another 100 but damn the 10x zoom is so appealing, yet to open box:)

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Nic2112:
Hi,

I have been having problems with wifi connectivity since ASD9. I'm connected to WIFI but chrome will say I'm offline for example and other apps won't see my phone as connected. Switching to 4G sometimes fixes the problem but often doesn't, it will still show as offline. Rebooting helps but that's not very practical. Before trying a factory reset I figured I'd share this here and see if anyone had the issue and found a fix that's less intrusive.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] pan466:
I have the same problem which is annoying. I found out that switching airplane mode on and off helps. Is there anyone else with same problem and updated to may patch? I wonder if its fixed.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] pan466:
Just an idea to isolate the problem, do you use adguard dns or something similiar?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Nic2112:
None of those. I'm not rooted, no private DNS, purely stock software and no customizations. My 6T does not have this problem and this really started with the latest update. I have the same problem at work on the cafe wifi.

My wife and I are having wifi issues as well with certain apps. Tested my speed and was running 170 - 180 Mbps.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Nic2112:
I was downloading files from my home server onto the phone this morning via WIFI and noticed it was rather slow. I was 20 feet away from my WIFI router tops (line of sight) and the phone was connected at 144Mbps. It usually is at 1054Mbps when I'm that close and only drops when I change floors.

I'm hoping this gets fixed quickly. I'm with Telus so unless they push an update, I don't really have options. I still have access to a Note 9, maybe I'll try a side by side comparison this week.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Nic2112:

I don't have this device myself and there's very little (maybe 1-2) threads that discusses the LG Tribute Empire (LM-X220PM) device.

But there's some hope! :eek:

Since this device has a MediaTek MT6750 Chipset with a 64-bit Processor, you can always try to go in that direction.

The following thread would be a good start for what you are looking for...

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Puk9:
sadly i dont think its possible yet
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alecxs:
I don't know if things have changed for new MediaTek devices (regarding FRP) but i would recommend to read a lot about SP Flash Tool, especially how to make a full ROM dump (read back), what is a scatter file, and why it is important to never flash the preloader. if you get managed to install the MediaTek MT65xx USB VCOM Preloader Drivers (which works best with battery removed), you should be able to make a backup (= read back) from SP Flash Tool.

If this first step fail for some new security features (i don't know), don't go further here...

If you not absolutely sure that a scatter file is matching your partition layout, do not flash anything!

Next (non-invasive) thing is to get fastboot working. you can reboot to bootloader, which is just another name for fastboot mode. this can be done from recovery, from a working adb, or with the proper key combo. once you see the device serialno after typing "fastboot devices" you managed this step.

Then you can go over to read about Magisk. rooting with Magisk is easy, all you have to do is provide your original boot.img to the Magisk Manager, then (invasive) flash the patched_boot.img.

Before flashing, take the decision if you are willing to factory reset your device.

If yes, first disable FRP (= enable OEM unlocking). then unlock your bootloader from fastboot. This will trigger FACTORY RESET! if you are afraid about flashing, first just boot the magisk patched_boot.img from fastboot without flashing it. then you can flash your magisk patched_boot.img from fastboot, too. i will not post fastboot syntax here because it differs for (non-)A/B devices

If no, you can try to flash (= Download) magisk patched_boot.img from SP Flash Tool. This should work with locked bootloader (at least it worked for older devices). Maybe you have to remove some checksum (files, or inside scatter file, i don't know). Again, most important: Make 100% sure you use the right scatter file (a successfully magisk patched boot.img from read back is not a bullet-proof indicator, but regarding the boot(a/b) partition(s) it may sufficient)

If the rooting fail for some reason or your device is not working anymore, flash back the full ROM dump with same scatter file you used for read back. This should restore it's original state (again, do not flash preloader!)

---------- Post added at 01:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:39 AM ----------

so like I was saying I need a boot.IMG or copy, if adb doesn't work I reset my computer or phone and used cwroot (the one that uses a script) root.sh to get the adb shell, that or factory reset the empire, and computer, reinstall adb ... thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alecxs:
fastboot only works from usb cable and is not related to adb. If you want to flash boot.img from adb you need a root shell. If you have a root shell you can dump boot.img by yourself with dd. If you find stock ROM you can extract boot.img from download, but you won't be able to flash boot.img without root shell, twrp or fastboot. besides this you need to unlock bootloader (which is only possible from fastboot) in order to get the capability to disable dm-verity, otherwise your phone won't boot with modified boot partition (and may become soft-bricked)

Another root method is bootless root

I strongly recommend you don't make things over-complicated and just find a pc you can use for 1/2 hour

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alecxs:
Aware for Mediatek you can't use TWRP Aristo (Qualcomm)

from root shell you can dump the boot partition with dd (repeat this for recovery partition if you need backup of stock recovery)

this is just example from other phone (you need to find the right mmcblk0p and partition size)

ls -l /dev/block/*/by-name
ls -l /dev/block/*/*/by-name
ls -l /dev/block/*/*/*/by-name
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 2019-10-31 13:32 boot -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p7
cat /proc/partitions
major minor #blocks name
179 7 16384 mmcblk0p7
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p7 of=/storage/emulated/0/boot.img bs=1024 count=16384

please note the guide you mentioned is exactly the same method i descripted. you still must figure out which partition you need to dump before (see ls -l command)! If it won't split you propably dumped the wrong partition, the mmcblk0p? differs for each device/ROM

AIS is a gui based on AIK scripts from another developer. you may find AIS more comfortable, but for recent updates and support AIK is recommended. AIS is fine for now (AIK-mobile is a pure text based shell script for terminal and can only installed from TWRP)
