[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] felixdd:
So I bought an A50 on amazon, and it turns out the CSC is TPA -- Panama.

But I'm in Canada on a Canadian carrier. I read somewhere (can't find the source anymore) that OTA updates will only roll out to the phone if it's in its home carrier. Is that true? Because if so, then that means I'll never get an OTA and I might as well flash to something else (which I've been trying to avoid as much as I can).

And for that matter, what device version are the current A50 in Canada? I tried looking up the version code on the demo units at the local mobile store and the version code is listen A505X which, AFAIK, is a demo version.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] felixdd:
Ahh -- I read this whole CSC geolocation thing here: https://www.phoneweek.co.uk/samsung-csc-codes-list-how-to-change-csc-on-samsung-devices/

I'm a newb with Samsung, coming from a Oneplus X as my previous phone...which feels much less restricted in terms of modifiability!
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] SubwayChamp:
Yes, Samsung is a lot much hard to deal with stock flashing/updates so they release sometimes 10 and many more versions focussed on modem/radio compatibility and One Plus only has a model or two that comes with HydrogenOs or OxygenOs based on the region that is sold.

Updates don´t depend specifically on your home carrier but in the CSC that is linked with firmware, it´s mean that you can wait for an update based on TPA firmware. They only depend on home carrier when they´re devices under contract of a carrier as happens with snapdragon US versions.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] felixdd:
Welp...received the OTA update for TPA on my phone, despite being in Canada. As others have pointed out, the updates still roll out even though I'm not geographically within TPA
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] Dantar0:
I'm sure you can download your CSC if the model matches on Sammobile in your region, then use odin to flash

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] ComicDude:
ok please dont give me any **** cuz ive been a apple dude since the beginning of time and now ive made the leap to android. that being said ive had the worst time so far between familiarizing myself with it and navigating any of it. the worst worst part......i did computer stuff for the military and i cant even figure out why my phone opens straight to contacts every time instead of the dialer......

alright the real problem.....i have boost mobile. its a sprint sim. i had a stylo 4 that just detroyed my life. i drive for uber and lyft and the amount of time that it took to change between the apps and for gps to catch up ive lost so much money. it was 8 days later after i switched companies that i was fed up well that 8th day meant no changing outta that phone and nothing they would do to help me. fast forward ive spent my entire 1st month in store and online troubleshooting and being told my phone sucked basically. now today.......the instore reps said you need to just get an unlocked phone and i was like well a note 9 looks aweome and they are all heck yea thats perfect on the network.........well it wont activate and the customer service said its not on the list......a quick google search reveals this phone is in fact not on the list currently but was and is used on the network by many.......i have the interational version SM-N960F/DS AND its brand new i just got it i need help i just honestly dont know what to do.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bober10113:
well the 1 st part of ure message is just inexperience. just use and learn as you go. i mean no one can teach you what you will understand on your own just by trial and error. of course you can always search and read the internets..

the 2nd par is also inexperience. just check what the carrier's mobile technology is using (is it GSM or CDMA? very easy to search for) and AFTER you should have bought a device compatible. now in order to identify for sure why the device dosent work on X carrier. you need to tell us what acctualy that X carrier is. also what is your defenition of not working? do you get a particular message when you insert the sim of that X carrier? or is there just no signal?

anyways once we know what carrier it is and the particulars of the issue, you might end up simply switching to an other carrier that supports GSM( because i suspect that is the issue at hand, your carrier might be CDMA but your device requires a GSM carrier).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] willhemmens:
I'm going to assume you're from the US. I checked the Sprint LTE bands which are, 25, 26 and 41. The SM-N960F (International phone) supports 25 and 26 link and the SM-N960U (US phone) supports 25, 26 and 41 link. So the fact you're missing band 41 is probably going to be your issue.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] captain sideways:
Hi,I've just installed:

lineage-14.1-20190713-UNOFFICIAL-clark

from androidfilehost. I am stuck In a bootloop but have been able to restore a backup. I'm using hashbang's moddedrecovery TWRP which is the only one I've ever had any luck booting a ROM with.

I've wiped data/system and tried installing it with and without gapps but still only get bootloop.

I notice this latest nightly has magisk 19.3 built-in and wonder if this may be the culprit? I'd really like to update for security updates as my stable build is quite outdated now.

Many thanks if anyone can help :)

Did you check the md5 checksum?
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] captain sideways:
hello, thanks for replying.

checked original and matched. re-downloaded and checked that one as well just in case, also matched. same result :(

** Edit - Problem Solved - My Fault/Strange Glitch

Soooo, I tried a few more times to install the latest nightly and whenever the rom was finished installing, Magisk 19.3 was also attempting to install. this is not because magisk is included in the rom, because it's not. even after advanced wipe > everything apart from microSD card and clearing my zip queue several times, magisk was still trying to install after the rom.

I went back to stock 7 install using fastboot and the necessary files then reflashed modded TWRP via fastboot, rebooted, and installed the latest nightly and gapps together and rebooted. so far so good :) thanks again for replying.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] adjday:
The mom needed a device and I dug out my ol OP3 (rooted). It was stuck in a boot loop and I decided to flash it back to the original factory settings. But from there on it would never boot into RECOVERY only into FASTBOOT. So with ADB still working I used the many available "Mega Unbrick Guide for A Hard Bricked OnePlus 3". The main problem was it would load and then faced with 3 errors upon trying to boot. Corrupted MD5, error with recovery and something else. I never had a problem with the drivers part and the main hang up was with either using the x64 or the x86 driver. But with no luck neither worked and always showed the same FAIL.

After many hours of no luck, during a load the phone disconnected on its own and the computer showed that something changed and no longer recognized the previous connected device.

Now resulting in no response to any action of any combination of buttons. Please explain how this can happen again, and could possibly be prevented in the future. I have rooted may devices with loads of help from the XDA community and have now experienced my first hard brick..kinda embarrassing when I told the mom she would have a killer device in about an hour resulting in full embarrassment!

After leaving it on the charger for a bit, it still was able to connect to the computer and run yet an UNSUCCESSFUL install with MSM download tool v3.0.

Thanks guys for reading.

[Razer Phone 2 Questions & Answers] ZaxxonQ:
Hello! I've used this little font of knowledge over the years to gain the full potential of my phones, but I never posted anything here until now. It's been pretty easy for me to pick things up here and use that information successfully, so I want to thank everyone that was involved for freely sharing those various posts and assisting those of us in need. I've been trying to follow along with all of the information provided for the Razer Phone 2, but quickly learned that it is a different beast all together.

My RP2 is currently locked with AT&T. I was able to flash the device with the latest global stock ROM since AT&T didn't seem like they were going to upgrade the Android OS any time soon. Now I have a global RP2 that works perfectly, yet still locked to AT&T. Recently, I was in the position of not being able to keep up with my phone bill and instead of working with me, they released my phone number and sent a bill for the full amount that was left on the phone along with some lovely fees, all of which will never get paid off in time before they send it to a collector.

My question is, what is the best and most foolproof way to unlock the phone so I can use it with other mobile service providers, if I'm even able to do that? I don't really want to root it and/or flash another ROM just yet. I'd prefer to keep the phone as it is, only unlocked as well. I'm not ready to backup, upload, download, restore, or set it up all over again. Right now my research just keeps me going in a confusing loop with no definite answer. I just want to unlock the phone without wiping anything out.

Is this possible? I'd appreciate any assistance! Thanks!

Phone needs to be paid off and not under any contract then you can SIM unlock the phone.

Does anyone know how to root on Mac?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] PillowCake:
Hello,

sorry if the questions may be redundant, but with all the threads on this matter I am a bit confused as to what "macro" operations to perform in order to have a rooted and fully operational device.

So, let us assume that I am going to buy a new, unbranded S10E (Exynos) tomorrow. What I aim to is the following:

have my device rooted

have TWRP

have no bloatware

being able to turn the device on-off normally, without having to perform any "specific" operations (in the rooting guide, I noticed that you have to power on the device with a specific combination of keys in order to boot it with root. I would like to turn it on - in rooted mode - by simply pressing the Power button)

have the latest official updates (at least those compliant with the points above)

So, having said this, can anyone tell me what macro operations to perform in order to meet all these "requirements"?

By "macro operations" I don't mean to describe every individual step; just something like "(i) update firmware normally; (ii) root by following this guide; (iii) TWRP by following this guide; (iv) then do this by following this guide; ... " and so on.

Any additional tips are (very) appreciated!

Thank you in advance!

Activity over on the OnePlus 7 forums is basically dead. I've got both phones (7 and 7 Pro). I'm returning my 7 and keeping my Pro but I need the stock recovery image for the regular OP7. I had TWRP installed and when I flashed the latest update for the 7 I guess I lost the stock recover. Now it's in a bootloop. Goes directly to that black screen asking you to choose your language. So I can go into fastboot or bootloader if I want but I have no stock recovery image to flash.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] 22Dávid22:
Yes, it's based on china ROM, but technically it's a custom ROM. You can only lock bootloader if your phone has an unmodified stock ROM, which is matching your phone's original region. For example if your phone ran global MIUI out of the box, you can't use chinese MIUI ROM, or any other ROM with locked bootloader, it would brick your device.

crDroid is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device also attempting to bringing many of the best features existent today. We're mainly based on LineageOS so use custom kernels compatible with them!

Features

Click for feature list (helps shorten the OP.)

Always Have a full functional Backup. Just in case!

Mod Edit: Link Removed

GAPPS: DOWNLOAD GAPPS

Kernel source :- https://github.com/Anush02198/kernel_xiaomi_sdm660

First time installing crDroid to your jasmine_sprout, or coming from another ROM: <--THESE MAY NEED UPDATING FOR YOUR PARTICULAR DEVICE; BE THOROUGH IN INSTRUCTIONS-->

** Make sure you're running a proper working Recovery (CWM or TWRP)

1) Copy crDroid zip, gapps zip <--& vendor img, if applicable--> to your device

2) Boot into Recovery

3) Wipe cache, system, & data (or just cache & system for a dirty flash).

4) Flash ROM

5) Flash TWRP Installer

6)Reboot

7)Let Rom Boot First

8)Go Back to Recovery

9) Flash gapps

For root, AFTER you boot into the ROM, you can go back to recovery and install Magisk XX.x (whatever is most recent).

Upgrading from earlier version of crDroid:

The only difference between clean flash as above and upgrading is you just wipe system & cache, leaving data. Everything else is the same. ***Remember to always clean flash before reporting problems. Clean flashing is always the best method of ROM install.

KNOWN ISSUES

Don't expect any support if you:

- are not running the included kernel

- have installed any mods such as Xposed!

- have modified system files
