I tried rubbing alcohol on both sides. No change.

I let the Best Buy customer service agent talk me into try number 4, I guess mainly because I am gullible like that. You know what? The alcohol thing worked this time, and I am approaching 4 hours without the tablet slipping out. If I make it overnight tonight, I am willing to declare this a success.

Fingers crossed.

I may have found a solution to the problem...I simply mounted 2 or 3 double stick photo wall mounts. The stand is VERY stable now...to the point that it is somewhat difficult to remove the stand from the device

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] rahlquist:
Like the subject says. is there a way to relock the bootloader without wiping?

Device is not rooted and running the Beta 17 rom

Thanks!
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Milly7:
No.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] realnickpdx:
There isn't a way to relock it without losing data.

HOWEVER:

OnePlus makes it very easy to create full backups of your phone with almost everything (except settings), including apps (not app data).

Using the OnePlus Switch app, create a backup of your phone. Plug your phone into a computer and transfer the "opbackup" folder out of the base internal storage folder.

Store this folder in a safe space.

After locking the bootloader by any means, turn on your phone and do the initial setup. Then, transfer the "opbackup" folder back to the internal storage and open OnePlus Switch again. Restore the backup.

Hi could anyone give me instructions on how to root my samsung Galaxy a20e please
[Framaroot] Spaceminer:
This might help. https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html#samsung-system-as-root
[Framaroot] triumfanto:
The third step is doesnt work for me. (Long press volume up to unlock the bootloader. This will wipe your data and automatically reboot.)
[Framaroot] Spaceminer:
You might not have an unlockable bootloader, or it might just be a different key combo. If you got one that was already carrier branded by Verizon or At&t then you're probably out of luck. You might want to try reading this too. (The middle response.) This is how the regular A20 users are unlocking theirs.
[Framaroot] triumfanto:
Thanks! Linked method works for me.

(1 turn off phone

2 Hold down Volume Up and Volume down both at same time.

3 While holding down both those buttons attach USB cable to computer (easier if you already have it plugged in to the phone)

4 wait for Aqua screen to come up that says to long press (hold down several seconds ) the Volume UP key to unlock bootloader.)

Maybe the root with magisk is possible too.

After few hours later I have a rooted a20e phone! :) (A202FXXU2ASG1)

When bootloader is really open odin can rewrite original boot.img with the magisk patched one.

TWRP is only need for me now.
[Framaroot] Spaceminer:
I love hearing good news! I'm willing to bet that whatever they're doing to get root will also work for you too. You'll have to do a little digging over there. You also have the same chipset as them and they have twrp already! It should be portable to your device without much of an issue. It really sounds like anyone with an A series can rejoice. I'm tempted to get one myself at this point.

Flash failed

Hello,

I have also a Samsung galaxy a20e and I followed the instructions, but the flash at step 7 fails. The firmware that I used is provided by this sammobile. It's works when I use it normaly, but fails when I use the magisk generated file for the AP . The operation stop when Odin reading the recovery image.

I uncheck the Auto Reboot option like specified

Can someone help me please?

Have a look at this:

(You May also need this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mF2Nxck4FtM

[Framaroot] smda:
The OEM unlocking option was already active for me. Unfortunately the flash with TWRP that you give still doesn't work. Have you succeed on your side ?
[Framaroot] ParadoxLogic:
Hi,

No I am still having the same issue as you, OEM Unlocked, but the flash at step 7 fails. The firmware that I used is provided by this sammobile. It's works when I use it normally, but fails when I use the magisk generated file for the AP.

It says "Can only flash official images"
[Framaroot] HazardsDE:
1. extract the boot.img from the firmware of your device

2. unzip with zarchiver

3. download magisk manager and choose install then select the boot.img file

4. flash the patched boot.img in Odin

Done

there is no TWRP yet cause it would need to be build from source.

I have the same problem please help to root and put my hand I have tried to do things has this mobile to see if we give a little life thanks
[Framaroot] 7wells:
Hello,

Sorry for chiming in, but maybe there is a misunderstanding? The original boot.img file (extracted from the stock firmware) needs to be first patched by the Magisk app. Only after it has been patched, the boot.img file should be flashed by Odin. Maybe the guide over there helps to make it clearer: https://www.getdroidtips.com/root-galaxy-a20-a20e/

EDIT1: I see posts about "vbmeta warning", so there might be some further hurdles, see e.g. there:

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-a20/help/root-method-twrp-samsung-a20e-help-t4017763

EDIT2: You might also want to have a look into the A20 (i.e. without the "e") section:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=80021195&postcount=4

EDIT3: vbmeta.tar attached there:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=80188834&postcount=237

Good luck! :)

PS:

I understood that no TWRP or other custom recovery was needed for this, but I assume that by unlocking the bootloader via the developer options (before flashing) or/and by flashing the patched boot.img (and vbmeta.tar?) file via Odin, the Knox counter is triggered, voiding warranty and some apps not working anymore (e.g. Samsung billing etc.), and OTA updates by Samsung not working anymore. Is that correct?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f465gt:
Hi,

I am currently facing an odd issue with PowerAmp on my PX5 headunit. I have placed my music on the internal flash and set everything so that in theory PowerAmp should resume playing after the unit re-starts. What happens instead is:

- sleep for short time, PA starts playing right where I left it, or somewhere around, that's ok

- deeper sleep/hibernation: PA starts playing where I left it and closes immediately after that

I am using the Hal9k ROM which also features some options to keep apps "running" during standby and it also can re-start apps and services. But I tried different settings and the behaviour is as expected. If I remove PA from the "keep active" list, it remains closed after re-start. If I set it on the re-start after standby list, it starts from scratch. If I leave it on the "keep active" list, it does the start and close thing.

How can I determine which app or which setting can cause this? Is there a way of logging the commands PA is receiving? In the options it always says that the last command it received was "resume".

Thanks in advance!

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] srup:
Hi,

i bricked my phone (by flashing lineageos16, now in QDL mode). Tried both blankflash files (oreo and NDX) but the logs usually look like:

EDIT: Somehow I managed to blank flash the device (literally tried it a zillion times) and since being genius ;) I flashed the wrong file...

It was the Verizon file and now I'm stuck at the bootscreen saying the device is locked. I can unlock it but the next reboot it's locked again.

I guess, because of it, I'm unable to flash a recovery or a different bootloader (fastboot command always fails). When booting a recovery via fastboot the device shows the 'powered by' logo and nothing happens.

Selecting Qcom from the menu takes me back to the 'Fastboot Flash mode' screen. Tried the restart-edl command, same happens (fb_mode_clear doesn't help).

EDIT2: Talking to myself...

Battery does not load. I was able to flash a different bootloader (from the offical EU image) by changing the partition names inside the XML file (bootloader.image) to <something>_a. After that I flashed the whole image to the phone (again with

changed partition names "<something>_a" in flashall.bat).

Result: The device bootloops (powered by logo) and after some attempts it restores the verizon bootloader.

EDIT3: Still talking to myself...

No chance to flash a firmware without flashing the correct singleboot.img first. Putting the device into edl mode doesn't work (command restricted. edl cable or hotkeys neither work. SBL partitions protected. TP for edl unknown).

It blocked some time after and I am not able to load a ROM again. After reading a lot on foruns I tried Wizard lobe, 5buttons the original ROM and, after 100% loading procedure, the Wizard blocks on the very first page with the IPL 2.21.0001 e SPL 2.21.olip and that is all. I always have to start on the bootload screen (3 colors screen).

I read that as long as I can access the 3 colors I am not bricked.

can you help me?

Tks in advance
[G4] zabardast_1:
Yes ! as long as it gets into bootloaders (tri color) its safe,but DON"T ever flash a Button's Rom onto it,as its a G3 rom with G3 IPL/SPL,it'll certainly Brick it, if it still goes to bootloaders,I must say you are a lucky guy,it didn't get bricked as you flashed Button's on it.

You must have overclocked it too high thats why it got stuck.Now as it goes to bootloaders and its HardSPL (IPL 2.21.0001/SPL 2.21.olip) flash wizard_love rom,hope it'll recover back,after that flash any wm6 rom of your choice,but don't overclock it too high.
[G4] GBADCC:
I guess you are rigth. I overclocked with the allowance to float the frequence and did not set an upper limit.

The problem now is - I can get to the bootloader, start RUU flash procedure ( it goes slowly to 100% as usual) and reboot. After that all I can get is the HTC start screem and the wizardlove (the blue image) or TNT Series image without the radio data. It does not move forward to any other action.

With a soft reset it gaves me the HTC and the same image but with the radio data. Before asking I spent a lot of time searching in forum but I did not got to a similar problem.

Many thanks for your support.
[G4] zabardast_1:
Try a Hard reset and remove,if any sdcard or minisd.As it's HardSPL,you cannot flash an official rom also,coz it contains ipl/spl in it,Official rom is only possible after removal of HardSPL,the only way out is to have a working OS on the phone,try to flash any custom build wm6 rom.
[G4] GBADCC:
Dear Zabardast_1

I tried to flash TNT, Qtek and a brazilian local operator ROM and no way. It always, after the 100% loading, boots and remains on the first screen.

With Farias ROM the same happens. It freezes with the first logo loading WM.

The hard reset shows formating FAT and fail to format.

Do you have any other idea?

Tks for your support.
