It looks like the internet is working on your device.

Ping will not work if you do not have an internet connection.

can you run it again without sudo

ping -c 5 "google.com"

This is a permission issue related to policykit daemon.

You can ignore it because it cannot be solved so easily in all LoD's images including Samsung's Ubuntu image.

Solving it wont make a big difference. All should work.

Can you share how you are generating the Linux on Dex images? I would like to make an ArchLinux image. I tested the voidlinux image (currently writing this message from it) and works really well, much more better than running on VNC since graphics work much better and mouse/keyboard input, I did have to install some font packages because xfce-terminal and firefox looked horrible. The issue I have with voidlinux is the limited repository, for example, I want to install PHP to do some development but it isn't available for the aarch64 port.

You can build an image file for any linux distro which supports aarch64 architecture by modifying Samsung's Ubuntu image file.

However, it is difficult to make them work prefectly on your android devices because of the kernel setup and the security issues.

To make it simple

Just download the image, mount it in your Linux PC, remove everything except the device special files and copy the new OS rootfs to the mounted image.

After many tears I finally got archlinux working under LinuxOnDex thanks to [MENTION=345440]root[/MENTION]@ for the tip it was really crazy becayse the /etc/ folder couldn't be deleted, it seems removing the LoDVersion file and replacing it again breaks something on the image that makes it look like invalid, anyways... I'm not sure which files on /etc/ make it a valid image yet...

The image file was initially like 400mb but in the process of getting it to work I added gcc and many other stuff that made it grow like to almost 2 Gb.

Here is the download link for those that would like to test it:

Also for anyone interested I uploaded to GitHub some initial shell scripts that I wrote while trying to generate a working image. They need more work to automate the entire process since I discovered lot of stuff while working on this but they serve as a guidance for future work.

I'm not much of a developer and what I do know is all windows based so I'm completely out of my league here but I was wondering if it would be possible to run Manjaro on Dex?

I understand that changes would need to be made and I'm willing to make those changes myself if someone could point me in the right direction.

According to distrowatch it is aarch64.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] minnnism:
Hi all,

I have searched for a solution to this but haven't come across anyone witht the same issue.

I bought a Mi 9 from China which came with the Global rom loaded. I found out that I couldn't use Google Pay unless I rooted with Magisk.

So I went through the process of trying to flash Magisk through fast boot (didn't work - boot loop to recovery) then with TWRP (didn't work - boot to TWRP and freeze).

I then used Miflash to flash the latest global stable version. Unfortunately I didn't notice it was defaulted to "clean all and lock" when I flashed. When the device restarted, it loaded into recovery and was no longer unlocked. The message is "This MIUI version can't be installed on this device". But I can't flash again, because its locked.

I downloaded the MiUnlock app and after running it get the message "Current account is not bound to this device" with instructions to change settings in developer options. But I can't access the developer options because the MIUI isn't loading.

So, yeah. I think I'm in trouble. Any suggestions?
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] g_seva:
If your device was global version i would say flash fastboot ROM with Mi flash tool or using script flash_all.bat. Then bound your account to your device, then try to unlock recovery. But i red that in some cases Chines version is not so simple, so search, how to flash fastboot ROM on Chines device and if there is some problems with this.

You will need adb and fastboot installed on your pc.

Upd. Man it's all over the internet, just search "This miui version can't be installed on this device". There is a fix with opening the device and so on... but if i was you i would try to contact the seller of the device and ask him to use his account to unlock recovery. My be using teamviewer or similar software.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] deepblue2000:
you bought in china with global rom and it was unlocked already ? because if you tried twrp then the device must be unlocked (bootloader)

then it was a China Version with unlocked bootloader and global rom. you used then the miflash and locked the bootloader again and flashed the global rom...

so you bricked your device....

if found this in an other forum:

"Dear customers, our service provides services in a remote format, if you are from another country .

If you need Mi Authorized EDL Account or you need my services for the restoration of the brick phones and the account is deleted, mi, if you forgot , contact me on my contacts : WhatsApp +7967 777 15 98"
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] minnnism:
Thanks! I searched as suggested and am trying a fix from the MIUI forum "[FIX] unbrick your BL LOCKED phone without xiaomi id authorization!!!". If that doesn' work I'll go with the team viewer option. Cheers!
[Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers] hochocnua:
https://xdaforums.com/Mi-9/help/soldthis-miui-version-installed-device-t3975421

Read carefully and report

1. Try to hold down the buttons vol down and power, see if : fastboot devices sees it. If so XiaoMi Tool will restore it. If not do the same try recovery vol up + power. Do adb devices and see if anything shows up. Worst case you'll have to open the phone up and connect the EDL pins together and it will flash anything. I use minimal ADB and Fastboot phone plugged via USB cable into the computer and run those commands.

2. Fully bricks their device here is the unbrick factory method

https://c.mi.com/thread-1479882-1-0.html

that's connecting EDL pins with the phone case removed for a phone that doesn't boot at all

3. https://youtu.be/8mW0JzKow7E

here's the exact EDL test point required on Mi9

if you can't boot or recognize the device at all via fastboot or ADB. If this doesn't work nothing will...

But it will work, that's what the factory does. Obviously the last resort.

Saying no bug found with this recovery in the original weibo post.

But backup data is highly recommended.

First time boot of twrp language was Chinese, so you need to change language to English in language setting.

Then I tried install Global rom thru twrp and when it reboot, it came to the new phone setup screen.

When setup to region there is only China option, no other country else.

So no choice have to choose China, it starts to hangs..."Find device has closed unexpectedly"...

Tried to flash back China rom and it keeps booting into twrp.

Update

Since it keep getting into Twrp,

I do factory reset and flashed global rom.

Now it is working in global rom but without twrp recovery.

I think this twrp is not for global rom.

If flashed it will keeps getting into recovery mode.

Need experts to verify.

[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] KlausWillSeeYouNow:
I would appreciate some help with an issue that I'm having, if anyone else knows the answer or has encountered this themselves. I have a OnePlus 7 Pro running stock OxygenOS, and which to my knowledge, had never had its bootloader unlocked.

I noticed using the DRM Info app that the Widevine status is L3 for some inexplicable reason. I did a factory reset, unlocked and relocked the bootloader (at OnePlus' suggestion), but it's to no avail – it's still showing as L3. Shows in Netflix look horrible, which basically confirms that the applications correctly seeing it as L3. I even used the MSM Download Tool to do a complete flash, and it's still on L3.

Has anyone come across this before? The device is not rooted, running stock firmware, and does not have an unlocked bootloader. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Leo_83:
It's because you unlocked the phone
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] KlausWillSeeYouNow:
No, that's not it, because it was like this before I personally did anything...and relocking the bootloader would restore L1. At least, that's how it works on every other phone I've ever been exposed to.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Leo_83:
No relocking does not restore it from what I have read.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] KlausWillSeeYouNow:
Oh NO! Really? That's literally the only thing that I could think of that would be preventing it from going back to L1, but that's ridiculous, if true. FWIW, they literally instructed me to do unlock and relock it, and told me that it would neither void the warranty nor keep it at L3 permanently. I'm hoping this phone is not different from others in that respect.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Leo_83:
Yeah it's very strange that they instructed you to do that. But I guess now you can have the phone sent back and if they say that they don't cover due to unlocking the phone you can send them a printscreen that it wad their suggestion
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] KlausWillSeeYouNow:
Good point. I think I'd much rather keep this device and figure out what's going on, but it was their instruction, so if it doesn't work, maybe they can assist.

Thanks again for your thoughts. I still can't help but wonder if anybody else has had this happen, and if so, what they did to fix it.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Leo_83:
Did you buy this device from someone else? Just thinking if someone else unlocked it before you.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] KlausWillSeeYouNow:
I also wondered about that. I acquired it from someone I know, but they are not technologically savvy enough to have done this. And they also say that they didn't (I believe them).
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jisoo:
It does restore it. I've unlocked and relocked my phone, and have L1 after relocking.

NB - one option for OP could be to reflash latest firmware. It's possible the DRM keys are not correct, and maybe this will fix it.

If it still doesn't work on a locked bootloader with latest stock FW, it sound like a potential HW issue to me.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] mingo_mgx:
They do get restored. To read drm keys, you now need a locked bootloader Unlocking will make them unreadable(L1->L3), but not delete the keys, so relocking will get you L1 again.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] harpin14789:
Relocking does restore L1. Where are you getting your information?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] matze19999:
it does not

WTF are u saying. I relocked and got L1 back. Stop misleading people.

Again, where are you getting your information?

Yes thank you, it has already been pointed out, there is no need to mention it again.

As for where I got my information it was from threads here in the forum. But I'm glad for [MENTION=5445236]KlausWillSeeYouNow[/MENTION] that it is possible to restore to L1.

[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] turbotorsten:
I guess it's a hardware fault. DRM keys can only be written by OnePlus, that's why people had to send their OnePlus 5s in to get DRM upgraded. Maybe it was corrupted from factory so there's no way for you to change that. I would suggest sending it in for warranty.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Paz9:
my 2 pixel 3 XL's didnt recover L1 after relocking, neither did my OP7Pro
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] KlausWillSeeYouNow:
That's DRM gone way, way rogue. What is the solution to restore L1? I understand content creators may like protections like this, but if it can't be restored even after relocking, that's extremely disrespectful to people who have every right to lock/unlock the bootloader on their own device.

Are you sure that it didn't go back to L1? If that's the case, others have told me that's as much of an anomaly as my situation. It should revert back once you're on a stock firmware with a locked bootloader...
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Paz9:
nope

other told you applied to older phones, new ones no longer retrieve keys after BL unlocked.
