[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] anick22:
Situation: Samsung Galaxy J7 Crown. Never messed with. USB Debugging not enabled No special permissions (no ADB). I am able to access the Android Recovery screen. Obviously wipe cache partition didn't help, nor Lacking storage booting. Other than the Recovery and download screen: I get the Power/Restart icons when booted normally. Reset works, but power doesn't turn the phone off. No phone calls, Yes notifications. Camera from lock screen comes on (triple click on home button) and touch screen works.

I've tried to trace out the lock pattern in the hopes its still working outside this specific situation. No indication that it is.

All i want is a few sentimental pictures. Although after an entire day of frustration, finding out that the only thing that works is the camera is kinda funny and ironic.

Ive looked on XDA forums, but I'm having no luck w/ exact situation, although I'm sure someone has been in the same situation or similar enough.

Spent all day looking at options (Odin?) and nothing looks like it would work out for me.

Knowing the camera works, makes me hopeful that a mirror would work? No reaction to lock screen pattern makes me think not.

Additional (maybe irrelevant) info. Shows up on home WiFi while Find My Mobile said it was offline (makes sense with Notifications/no calls)

Any advice? Just point me in the right direction if there is one.

If not i hope you appreciate the Irony here. Thanks

(I used to be not so bad tech support, but haven't been keeping up as of late, and today was a painful reminder. Take pity on me.)

Black Screen Except Camera - Galaxy J7 Crown

Hey there anick22! I was so glad to see a search result with something referencing the camera working, on an otherwise completely black screen! I was super bummed to see that noone had replied to your plea for help with this insane problem!! I hope you found a solution by now!!

My 2 month old Galaxy J7 Crown suddenly went black on me one day, and it didn't happen as a result of a drop, or spill, or any other damage. I don't recall having put any new or different apps on it, recently, either.

The triple click of the Home button does open the camera, and the screen lights right up, perfectly. It takes it's usual beautiful pics, and I'm able to use all of the camera functions. I'm even able to view any photos I took during that particular session, buy not any prior pics, because I'm unable to unlock the phone.

"Hey Google!!" also reacts, and will display the result of any question that I may ask it, but I'm unable to go into the answers, without the ability to unlock my phone.

I have been able to get the phone into safe mode, while attempting to power it off, by pressing the power button, and then tapping on "power off" (although this hasn't worked every time I've tried). While in safe mode, "safe mode" is displayed in the bottom left hand corner, but nothing else appears on the screen.

Upon powering up the phone, all of the normal things happen. It shows "Samsung" and goes on to the blue screen to show the "Trac Fone" logo, but once the phone is booted up, the screen is black!!

PLEASE tell me that you were able to find a solution to this!!! I went and purchased a new Moto G7, (since I had a Droid Turbo 2 in the past, and it was amazing!!), and I'm beyond ready to get back to my J7 Crown!! PLEASE HELP!!

Thanks so much!!!

By the way, I'm a newbie here, as If you couldn't tell!!
[General Topics] teacherdavids:
I have a HTC S1 running Blue Elves v5.0. I run in both Chinese (CHS) and English. I believe the Chinese font system may come from CE Star. My challenge is the size of the font in the candidate list when entering Chinese. Any suggestions on how to increase the size? Adjustment through systems settings does not work. I'm wondering if it's a registry tweak. I've looked through the registry; however, cannot seem to locate a file that may be the one necessary to increase the size of the candidate font. I've included a couple of screen shots and the font looks larger on the screen shots that it appears on the phone. Any suggestions? Thanks.

hey guys, when it comes to all of this i would say i am beyond a newb. so if i violate any protocol i plead ignorance and hope that you will bear with me. i have my disable sister who lives with me and i am responsible for who has had a government phone for years. just recently the powers that be in our great government who are in charge of how our tax dollars are spent somehow decided that one government phone was not enough for her.

to make a long story short she received a second phone out of nowhere that i now have the opportunity to play with.

it is a UMX U683CL and i can find nothing on the web to help me gain root. so i pose to you good people to share whatever links, knowledge and wisdom you can to teach me to pull the stock rom so that a possible custom recovery can be developed and then achieve root.

once again if i have violated any protocol i apologize, please correct me. and thank you in advance for any help>

Umx u683cl

If it helps you might search for ANS UL40 root info.....when I check my IMEI online it comes back to the ANS model.....and once it came back as

Brand:Teleepoch LTD Model:Lifesaver I thought that was odd. Nothing is available for the UMX that I've found. From what I was told by Assurance wireless they aren't able to unlock them either. None of the pay to unlock online companies can do it. These are really decent phones I suspect it's the service that makes them unusable.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Figlet:
I believe this device ships with an unlocked bootloader. Would be easy to root, methinks. Standard custom recovery flash and SuperSU or Magisk flashable ZIP should land the plane. TWRP builds are way more prevalent than before. Shouldn't be hard to port from the U673C if they have the same CPU.

---------- Post added at 06:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:41 AM ----------

The UL40 is not the same phone. They may have a similar processor, but they aren't nearly the same.

---------------------------------------

Hi Figlet! Could you give a newbie a little more info on the "Standard custom recovery" .. what and how should I do this for the Unimax U683CL? Thank you very much!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Figlet:
Basically, you just have to find a port of twrp or cwm recovery for this device and flash SuperSU or Magisk. You'll probably have to find someone willing to port the recovery image because I haven't seen any ports in my search, but I believe there are similar devices and twrp builder makes it pretty easy to make a recovery for any device. I'm not going to post a tutorial because there's plenty of information how to flash a custom recovery on any device.

Good luck!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] X--Force:
Thanks very much for the reply and the info!! I'm off to hunt for a tutorial now lol. And "someone willing to port the recovery image..." which I have no idea what is. But, I will find out! Twrp builder, here I come. Thank you again!

Edit.. Oh, and I wanted to confirm something you said earlier. It does ship with an unlocked bootloader. Also, if it helps anyone, the "Secure Boot" setting is "Disabled", the bootloader version is blank, the "Variant" is "QRD eMMC", and the "Product Name" is "MSM8909".

I'd assume a good few months might take place before we hear anything on this device. If anyone needs cloud compute resources to compile code for this, id be glad to build a temporary VM with whatever specs necessary, depending on compute time & bandwidth required.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fortunate Digalloforte:
I learned not to call Assurance with an issue with the UMC U683CL. The support team had me call from another phone asked for the info and they took the phone I used to call and flipped the sim codes on both phones, cell numbers etc, now neither function. So, if there's a will there is a way. It's an Android which is great but the menus and apps just aren't all that great. The issue is, once you unlock, remove Google their just aren't any decent apps to install. Damn Google. Makes the man want to hurl.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BadRx:
May I ask how you actually got to fastboot on the phone? It seems to be stuck on the UMX logo on most other folks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Figlet:
I just got one of these, I'll try and find the source and maybe build a rom or something. The charger port is loose so I'll be a while before I can do anything substantial.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] htc-8925:
so...any follow-up?? All the basic websites give the same exact tutorial as if they've all been written by the same AI webpage builder... I found the customized TWRP and used Magisk to patch the boot.img but haven't had any success with getting into EDL or recovery or even DL mode...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] somnomania:
I would also love followup. I have very little understanding of how any of this works, and I'm getting stuck on the Magisk step and have zero clue of what I'm doing. I don't program, I very rarely command line, and I'm confused. Is Magisk the custom ROM? Am I using it to apply the custom ROM (which I'm not even positive I have one of)? I can't get Magisk Manager to install, either, it's trying to do it as an update to a program that doesn't exist. And I'm having the same issue htc-8925 had with the internet only providing search results that seem like they're all coming from the same source.

[Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers] thelucius:
It definitely supports aptx and aptxHD, but first your device should support it before you can use it on your phone. I have a Sony BT Headphones, which support AC3 only, and others with support aptX and aptXHD, so my P30 Pro defaults to aptXHD with the latter, and only AC3 with the first.

[NOOK Tablet 7" Guides, News, & Discussion] turtleletortue:
Easy way to get root access on BNTV460 (Nook Tablet 7" with Android Oreo)

This is a simple way of getting temporary root access on the Nook Tablet 7"(8.1.0 Go edition).

Needed materials:

The Nook you want temporary root on

A usb cable

A computer with ADB installed (I suggest using a Linux Distro for this because it doesn't require you to install drivers)

Big Note:

Any thing you do to mess up your device is on you. I am not responsible for your own actions. Modifying certain partitions while you have root may result in a device that needs to be reflashed.

Pre-setup:

1. Go to Settings < System < About tablet < Continuously tap on Build Number until it says you are now a developer

2. Exit Settings

3. Go to Settings < System < Developer options < Scroll down to USB Debugging and tap it so it is turned on.

1. First thing to do is to download the release file from https://xdaforums.com/android/development/amazing-temp-root-mediatek-armv8-t3922213 under current version.

2. After that, extract the zip file you downloaded.

3. In a terminal, cd into the location of the mtk-su_rXX/arm (replace XX with the revision number of the file you downloaded).

Example cd command:

cd /home/yourusername/Downloads/mtk-su_r18/arm/

3.5. Plug in the Nook Tablet 7" into your computer and go into the notifications (swipe down from top). You should see something that says "Android System: USB charging this device. Tap it twice and choose Transfer Files. (If you don't do this, ADB won't work)

4. After that, follow the commands from the XDA page that you downloaded the file from except on the first one, replace path/to/mtk-su with mtk-su

5. If you follow the commands correctly, you should get

UID: 0 cap: 3fffffffff selinux: permissive

Uses for this:

If you know what you are doing having root is very useful. Big things you can do is backup your partitions to an external SD card so you can be assured you have them backed up in case you have to reflash them.

Issues with this method:

1. It goes away after every reboot

2. It sometimes gives permission denied

- This goes away if you restart the device and rerun mtk-su

Give all of your thanks to diplomatic on the thread about mtk-su, as he deserves any thanks he can receive for his amazing work.

If do a search and find a picture I want, then long-press it, and click "Download image", it downloads successfully but I can't find it anywhere with Solid Explorer or Google Photo. That said, if I go to the "Files" application it is right there when I open the application and the info bar at the top of the screen says "Downloads" and there is also a "docs" folder and all the other pictures I have done this with in the past.

I often do this to share them to Facebook or in a chat, but in order to use them I have to search and download, open Files, and use that to move it to Pictures or some other folder I know where it is, and then go back to the application and use it to upload the file by it opening Photo (the Gallery app).

Where are these downloads going that Solid Explorer or Photo can't find them?

BTW, I am not rooted.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] charackthe:
For use with Quickstep Magisk Module. I need a solution that will change the roots of the OS. Not a Navigation Gestures app. I just need the entirety of the bottom gesture to be the recents gesture. So the solution is to somehow take left 1/3 of the screen and span it across the entire bottom side. This will basically allow me to swipe from anywhere and get the recents menu. So this way I can use Lawnchair etc with Quickstep and have the full stock Pie experience which I love but also I cant leave OneUI so flashing a AOSP rom isn't an option.

I tried to migrate from GSI Treble rom Havocos 2.7 to SuperiorOS Pie by runninghamster

(I'm A2017G btw)

These are the steps I followed:

1. Reboot to TWRP

2. Wipe dalvik/art cache, cache, vendor, system, data, etc.

3. Reboot back to TWRP again (using okilabs 3.23.0)

4. Flash Universal bootstack v2, then flash A2017G_omodem

5. Flash okilabs twrp again

6. Flash superioros rom (here's where it goes wrong)

In the process of flashing superioros rom, it goes to error 7 and says, failed to patch system image unconditionally, updater process error 7 and all of that.

I've tried the tutorial where you remove the assert lines and all of that yet it still says that.

Please help me, it would be awesome.

Hi, I have a rooted Moto X4 (either 9.0 or 9.1) with Magisk (either 18.0 or 18.1). I've been holding back on updating for a while because I didn't want to mess anything up, but some of my super user apps are malfunctioning, I think its time to update it. When I update the android OS, do I just update it normally on the phone? I have TWRP installed and I'd like to flash Magisk manually to avoid any problems. I feel like it would be a good idea to save a copy of the phones current state before updating so I can restore if there are any issues. Any thoughts or advice? Thanks!
