64 bit vendor for A6​

The day is here... the day we never thought was ever going to be possible. Exynos 7870 is now running 64 bits. This magic was made possible by [MENTION=6917540]Astrako[/MENTION]

I hope everybody appreciates the dedication and the countless hours he must've gone through to get this to work.

Please don't take anything from this vendor set-up. I used took Astrako's vendor in H-ROM and adapted it to A6 with his permission. Don't try to claim it as your own.

Please give thanks to the original thread that made this possible: Click here and give thanks!

Also, A HUGE HUGE HUGE DISCLAIMER:

I do not own an A6. This vendor was originally made for the J6, but since they are somewhat similar it only needed a few file swaps to get most things to work. I only have 2 testers and we managed to fix most stuff. Flash under your own risk and expect bugs!

Your warranty is now void.
* We are not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about flashing this zip file
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at us for messing up your device, we will laugh at you. HARD!

FAQ

[Q] My phone is stuck in bootloop/infinite boot, what should I do?

[A] It is normal for first instalation to take aprox 10-20 minutes on first boot, let it sit for a little bit

[Q] Even after 20 minutes, my phone is still in a bootloop/infinite boot, what can I do?

[A] It is possible that your previoius Android setup is conflicting with this new setup. Please, do the following:

1. FORMAT DATA (not WIPE, FORMAT!)

2. Try the instalation of the GSI and make sure you follow the instructions correctly

[Q] I've found a bug, what should I do

[A] Due to the nature of GSI, I cannot fix bugs that may come from the ROM you are using

Sorry guys, this is A6 Exynos 7870 only.

Exynos 7870 is shared between a lot of devices and it's very easy to port between them. Not to mention that there are a lot of devs that work on 7870.

hello, on the A600FN single sime phh v117, the network signal is gray, the 4g is working, I tried with varied gsi roms but still the same problem,

some ideas to solve?

with 32bit vendor I don't find the problem

thank you
[Samsung Galaxy A6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] farid-ff:
ciao, the proximity sensor doesnt trigger touch when sensor is covered. In fact if you call someone, display go off, but touch still working, so you can use your phone even with screen off

the correction should be this:

[Samsung Galaxy A6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] bienna6.3:
Try with open camera, for me it worked

The only thing that isnt working its SIMCards at least for me

btw for installing images its Arm64 A only or A64 binder A only? its not clear
[Samsung Galaxy A6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ShaDisNX255:
If you're using this vendor, it's arm64. If you are using stock vendor, its A64
[Samsung Galaxy A6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] redymedan:
That is Arm64 A-Only. Look at on description I have write it clearly the images file "system-arm64-aonly-gapps-su.img.xz"

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] sarahstevenswhite:
so I am a mom of 3 including an infant and exhausted trying to figure this out. Trying not to clog the board opening a new thread. Long story short- I want to use an app that the developer has not been able to fix the errors with it when using Nougat on an S7. They suggested I upgrade to Oreo or Pie to fix this. I have an unlocked phone purchased outright on eBay and use Total Wireless. So there will be no one to assist me in this. I'm fairly tech savvy so I looked on YouTube about rooting and upgrading with a custom ROM.

I watched these videos:

sorry new cannot post

So easily I enabled developer options and OEM unlock and USB debugging. Downloaded Odin and Magisk and no verity and Gapps and lineage 16.0 (from Ivan Meler) and twrp with the twrp-3.3.1-0-heroqltechn.img.tar file which I determined is which one I needed.

Odin will not flash TWRP (one of the first steps). Fails every time. It does start blue and I did download and install the latest Samsung drivers package just to be sure.

Then I found it was probably because I had a locked bootloader. So, I used this tut and that did successfully download to my phone via Odin. But TWRP still will not "flash" to the phone.

Now, my fingerprint sensor says "The fingerprint sensor is not responding, please try again later". and my phone has a security notice stating "unauthorized actions have been detected. Restart your phone and undo any unauthorized changes". So I am thinking that I did successfully unlock the bootloader? But TWRP still will not flash.

I considered using oneclickroot.com but it's $40, phone only worth about $100, and my husband is convinced they're going to steal info from my computer and phone in the process (even thought they're XDA endorsed). They also told me they can only give me Oreo not Pie.

I have downloaded and used SuperBackup. Also all my photos are auto backed up to Google and my contacts and calendar are too. So I don't think it's a huge deal if I lose everything. Even if I brick it I can get another. Reinstalling and relogging into all my apps will be a pain but whatever. I have a password app that can be logged into from the web.

Also my camera has been getting buggy and not opening and having to be restarted and in general the phone is just getting glitchy, so I was hoping an upgrade might help.

All the info I have:

Model G930V Ver 7.0

Baseband G930VVRS4BQC9

Build NRD0M.G930VVRS4BQC9

Knox 2.7.1

When I enter developer mode:

Odin Mode (High Speed)

Product name: SM-G930V

Current Binary: Samsung Official

System Status: Custom

FAP lock: Off

Qualcomm secureboot: enable

AP SWREV B4(2, 1, 1, 1, 1) K1 S3

Secure Download: enable

My startup screen where it says Galaxy S7 powered by Android also now has an unlocked lock icon and says "custom" underneath.

Should I just figure out how to "undo" what I did and leave it alone? I'd really like to use the eMeals app and I'd really like to not buy a new phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] matt1285:
You can't flash twrp on a US branded snapdragon s7... only on exynos versions of the phones...however...there are ways to obtain root and there are ways of using twrp temporarily while running programs on your computer...it is very perplexed and I can't easily explain it but just read through the threads and google root and twrp xda snapdragon s7 and read up on it...or better yet look into the roms thread...jrkruse has some roms with temporary twrp and easy root...u will never have true custom roms or magisk on that phone but has got some awesome stock base roms and ways of doing things where you wont really miss custom roms

---------- Post added at 12:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:03 AM ----------

To get back to normal use Odin and flash the ap, bl, cp, and Csc files via the instructions...u have to read up on it...google Odin s7 back to stock
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nlambuca:
Hi,

I have this tablet laying around, and was planning to build a head unit with it.

Few questions I have:

- 4 channel audio (I know I can use usb audio card... but that does not really mirror 2 channels to other 2 channels - suppose a 5.1 card) control pan/balance

- create custom task bar to switch between apps and do AC control etc... with fixed task bar

I have done some Android programming, but I think these 2 requests can't be done with app only...and probably need core change, right?

I know lot of Chinese ROM for Headunits have it... so not sure the complexity of building a custom ROM

Thanks

Nuno

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shraga1:
I need to add a root certificate to Android systems. I hope to achieve this by copying the appropriate file the following path: /system/etc/security/cacerts, or using a flashable zip.

Due to the fact that applications from Android version 7 and upwards no longer trust user-added CAs by default, I will need to do this to many tens of devices from multiple vendors.

Possible methods:

Rooting the devices

Via a custom recovery

Drawbacks:

Rooting:

I will need to separately find a method of rooting each device. There is no generic rooting method that will work for all devices.

Custom recovery:

I will need to obtain multiple customized TWRP (or other) recovery images, one for each device model.

Not all devices have custom recovery images available.

Is there an easier and more generic method to achieve my goal?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yelloguy:
I have an 8" Samsung Tab S (SM-T707A) AT&T version. Running Android 6.0.1. I bought it for some light reading and playing Pokemon Go with location shifting! After jumping through hoops I was able to get it all working. But there are a couple of issues with it:

1. it randomly reboots.

2. battery drains very fast

Mind you I have it set to specific version of Google Play services because of the game hack requirements. Ideally I would like to root it, wipe it, and install a custom ROM like I have done for many Android devices. That usually gives me the best experience possible. But since that is not doable - I have looked through these boards - I am looking to sell this one and get another one.

It can be a small tablet or large phone with high-res screen. A good Android experience with no bloat etc. A stylus would be great because then I might be able to do some photo processing on it too. I would probably spend 100-150 in the used market.

Thanks for your time in advance.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AnwenSeeks:
I bought this used. Before i bought it the guy showed me he was resetting the google id, etc and I thought no problem. WRONG!

Later the night I started setting it up, added my google account, all is well then BOOM! Up popped Knox and that was it! Wants me to log in but I can't as don't have an account. Can't enable USB debugging, can't load an apk, can't do much of anything all Knox blocked!

Did I waste $40? Is there ANY WAY around this?

Thanks!

[ZTE nubia Red Magic Questions & Answers] ianseer:
Hello guys,

just wanna asking again,.. I was going to flash magisk on red magic. I already succeed in flashing the TWRP. But, unfortunately, the TWRP was asking for a password to Decrypt Data...

Does anyone know the solution for this?

I already try to put pin on android and use it on TWRP still no luck here. Is there is a way to decrypt the phone from the system itself??

any suggestions will be great :fingers-crossed:
[ZTE nubia Red Magic Questions & Answers] methuselah:
Flash official recovery from twrp website. If I remember right it will work. But change language to English
[ZTE nubia Red Magic Questions & Answers] strakell:
If you haven't already find solution you must do factory reset through twrp option to unlock it ,of course this action will wipe all your data.
[ZTE nubia Red Magic Questions & Answers] methuselah:
Data partition he needs to wipe.
[ZTE nubia Red Magic Questions & Answers] ABM30:
1. You need to go in boot-loader mode: VOL DOWN and POWER - preferable from power off state and when logo appear release buttons.

2. unlock boot-loader (every time is needed if you want to modify recovery or anything else)

3. install original international recovery: http://www.mediafire.com/file/s3dyqlhsytsflpd/recovery-114.img/file

4. restart in RECOVERY...now you see original recovery : choose English and go and wipe USER DATA (!!!!!!IT WILL ERASE EVERYTHING, ANY IMG< MP# < EVERYTHING FROM INTERNAL MEMORY and DECRYPT IT !!!!!),

erase also cache!!!!!

5. Power OFF

6. Unlock boot-loader (yes, again!)

7. install TWRP 3.3.1 : http://www.mediafire.com/file/nsu9nr0pdknruxw/recovery-331.img/file

8. Boot into TWRP Recovery

9. now install "Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_02.04.2019.zip" : http://www.mediafire.com/file/hquo5qjoi45hy9c/Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_02.04.2019.zip/file

In this way you will decrypt your phone and prevent to encrypt it again on reboot. If you don't Disable verity and force encrypt phone will re-encrypt itself on reboot because Vendor partition contain settings to encrypt data. There is a chance that after step 8 you will need to reinstall original international ROM ver. 114 and immediately after that the "Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_02.04.2019.zip"

After reboot successfully (and no encrypting data) go back to TWRP and flash the last magisk.

....If you want to try something else: Download the Resurrection Remix 8. 1, version 64 bit A only gapps from here: https://xdaforums.com/project-treble/trebleenabled-device-development/resurrection-remix-phh-treble-t3767688

This one I found that is working also gapss.

You can find also other ROM (as system image!) here:

or here:

About treble experimentation here: https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/wiki/Frequently-asked-questions-%28FAQ%29

For example I like the DESCENDANT 3.1.1 : https://xdaforums.com/project-treble/trebleenabled-device-development/descendant-android-pie-custom-rom-ver-t3840578 but I can not make working gapps on it....till now at least

[ZTE nubia Red Magic Questions & Answers] methuselah:
Does the songs are getting played into the gsi? Treble GSI have issues like overheating and no sound while playing music. Means no ringtones either. I had put logs for phh but he didn't worked as he is busy. As all gsi uses phh base and fixes, the issues are same across the gsi.

Plus- in pie Chinese vendor the treble support is gone. So no more treble in pie update. Only we have legacy support on 8.1.

I had tried to work onto updating Omni but my motherboard went down. It got burnt. You know how to cook ROMs right ! Why don't you try?

Plus the latest gsi no longer boot idk the reasons with the July updates. Reply to me I am trying to donate a device to anyone who can work on this phone

[ZTE nubia Red Magic Questions & Answers] ABM30:
YES, at this moment sound is a problem in GSI ROMs. In call you have sound but not in media.

I am still looking for solutions.
[ZTE nubia Red Magic Questions & Answers] methuselah:
There are logs on phh thread about sound and other issues on gsi. Take a look if you have any knowledge. You don't need to take logs again I guess. But new GSI don't even boot last time this month when I checked. Maybe I was wrong.

It's just my point of view. You should try to bring up lineageOs with Omni sources coz lot of developers are there to help you if you have knowledge. The device tress are there from Omni. Well 8.1 is still there as lineageOs is still updating and giving security fixes. And most of commits are there for ok our phones in Omni GitHub.
[ZTE nubia Red Magic Questions & Answers] ianseer:
Hello, me again...

I'm trying to do the method that you've explained...

there's a new problem... right now, already try to connect my phone to USB on pc, it always says "USB supplying power on attached device" even for fastboot mode it doesn't work the computer still not recognize anything.. already tried different computer, already tried different cables too... no luck...

Now, I can go to emergency recovery with stock nicely but cannot go to the usual recovery cuz i already installed twrp but the phone itself is encrypted device so nothing to do there, I'm thinking about wiping userdata from emergency recovery,... is it okay to do this? cuz maybe I'm thinking after I wiping the userdata and everything I can get my USB connection again (cuz before i've had similar issue but after install new rom it's working nicely almost with every cable),... what do u guys think? thanks in advance
[ZTE nubia Red Magic Questions & Answers] ABM30:
Well, if you are encrypted you will need to uncrypt your phone.

!!!!!!!But you will lose everithing saved in internal memory!!!!!!!!

Just follow steps 1 to 8 from my previous guide. Then you can reinstall the ROM.

If you will install International ROM you will get encrypted again if you don't run Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_02.04.2019.zip right after installing ROM in TWRP!!!!!!!

Wiping everything with original recovery is the best way to clear your phone!!! sometimes is mandatory this, even with advanced wipe in TWRP you wont achieve what you can with original recovery wipe!
[ZTE nubia Red Magic Questions & Answers] ianseer:
Back to report...

Already finished all the things need to be done... and ABM30 method is working nicely.... now, I can enjoy all the root goodness in my red magic with original global rom.

really this is what I'm looking for... Thanks a lot.

Ps: just wanna share for the USB to pc connectivity problems: what I did was connect it on fastboot mode, and do fastboot command for unlocking your red magic.... wait around 5 min, unplug it if nothing happens, plug it again and wait again (until many times), after that you will see your fastboot command from wait mode into something successful... (i dunno why).

and then do reflash the recovery...

for the resurrection remix, I will try it and post it on new thread.... seems interesting
