The goal is to get it rooted. But it seems that's not possible right now.

can't not root the latest firmware now??
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] terky69:
Got it rooted now. Thanks for the help.
[General Questions and Answers] Pariah24:
Hey all, recently my Google app started saying "This feature is not available on your device" when trying to send SMS. I'm trying to figure out if it's a bug or if Google removed some functionality. It has always worked fine before. I have a Galaxy S8+ (SM-G955U) running a rooted stockish version of Nougat.

Thanks for any help

I'm coming from android 6, and I miss the "original" icons from apps. Even with a launcher, my apps show white borders. Is this a new android thing? Or it happens only witn miui?

Simply download a launcher like Nova Launcher or Lawnchair, find a stock looking icon pack & then apply it inside the launcher you downloaded
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] jesrani:
Just purchased OP7T. Planning to use without rooting for some time as maybe Android 10 is new and may get some OTA updates. Also currently root may not be available.

Is there any app to transfer my apps and data from old rooted OP3T?
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] Dewaynelives:
One plus switch,MyBackup Pro and the one i use personally G Cloud Backup
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] dlads:
Your apps will restore via Google play anyway, but compared to titanium I'm really not sure. I don't think you can make an image which is as accurate as that.

I'd get the most important bits like contacts, pics, vids and start afresh with apps, besides the ones that sync online content.

Texts can be backed up with an app

WhatsApp backs itself up.

Starting afresh is a better option, at least for battery life.. (I'm including the likes of titanium in that opinion too)

Bootloader unlocking will be available as always for the 7T, plus they're the most relaxed company in this regard, I would always root this device, it's essentially what spawned this phone, partly why it's so easy to do so.
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] jesrani:
Will check Oneplus Switch once I get the new phone but MyBackup Pro does not work without root. G Cloud seems to backup to cloud, i would have preferred local. Does it backup unrooted apps data?

I backed up with Google but it seems to have backed up only a few apps so not sure how useful it is.

Is there any process already available to unlock bootloader and root OP7T and install Magisk?

Edit : I checked out Helium and it is not able to backup all apps like TiB. I only want to backup user installed apps and not any system apps. So it seems I will have to wait for root to work before being able to transfer all apps.
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] xRogerxC:
I would say you're right. Once this phone is available in the US, development will pick up pretty quickly.
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] jesrani:
Can I just root the phone using this simple guide for OnePlus 7 Pro :

https://www.xda-developers.com/unlock-bootloader-root-oneplus-7-pro/

Do do I need some patched boot images?
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] cultofluna:
You need compatible twrp
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] jesrani:
Didn't realize that. So it seems I will have to wait.
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] cultofluna:
They are two ways to root the device

1. unlock bootloader/boot twrp/ flash magisk

2. patch stock boot img with magisk/ flash patched boot img on fastboot/ install magisk through magisk manager

Both ways not possible at this moment

Dude root should be very very simple unless things have changed so much.

OnePlus used to be a haven of bootloader unlocking / relocking, and root was a file you flashed and forgot about..

TWRP used to be on their damn website lol.

Can't have changed that much can it .

My advice

Buy it

Unlock it

Root it

Enjoy it

Relock it

Box it

Sell it

Buy another one

Repeat.
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] jesrani:
Yes, I will be rooting as soon as a compatible TWRP is available

I'm waiting a stock rom to start working on a TWRP, let's see when it will happen
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] dlads:
Modify the 7 pro one and give it a flash.

High probability it'll flash
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] mauronofrio:
Maybe it's not needed to modify it, but for sure it will not decrypt
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] dlads:
You'll want no limits xXx then..

That's the best ROM I ever used on the oneplus 5.

The one that I achieved 14 hours 47 minutes SOT on..

Apparently you can flash it with magisk now.?

---------- Post added at 03:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:41 PM ----------

You don't need it to decrypt.

Remove your pin / password. Then sideload the ROM to \temp and flash away..

You may need stock recovery to wipe afterwards but it will work..

The flash I mean. No idea on the custom recovery.

Once I get mine I'll flash it no problem.

PS: there is a real possibility that it actually will decrypt, these phones are like twins mate.

I guess time will tell, that being said this is the quietest OnePlus forum I've ever seen man.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dealwagon:
I am getting my tilt this afternoon and need to know where to start? :)

I have heard to reset the phone before the initial apps setup to kill all att bloatware. Is this a good idea?

Also, should I reflash to a certain ROM for faster performance, as the phone seems a little sluggish (at least the demo did at the store).. I know the att store phone has probably never been rebooted, so the new will be a little faster.

Killer apps besides the tweak program?

What ar ethe MUST DOs with this phone?

Thanks in advance. I really appreciate any help!

the volume buttons on my device don't work, and my android is on 8.0.0, I am wanting to upgrade to 9.0.5, but the device will not let me update with the bootloader unlocked, so I wonder if there is any way to do this without having to use the volume buttons, thanks in advance
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] AwlsomeAlex:
I'm having the same issue today, try this. I will be performing the same thing today and will update you on how I do.

EDIT: Didn't see that you said your volume doesn't work. Whoops. There might be a way to reboot into ADB recovery. Try putting your device into Developer Mode, turn on Advanced Reboot, and when you hold down the power, press "Reboot" and then "Bootloader". Then just use ADB.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] andrevianaa:
what is ADB? how to use it?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] ilxaesk01:
Go and turn on Advanced restart, click bootloader once holding the power button when the device is on then proceed to go to fastboot and type in the command

"fastboot oem lock"

then:

"fastboot erase userdata"

You will lose all your data (I think).

Hi, I have a problem with my note 8. Games are running very poorly, laggy. Sometimes when I put on another performance mode, or just randomly it goes completly without lag. I do not know if anyone else is expriencing this, but I am for half a year. My friend with a 4 year old phone runs much better than my Note 8 wich is just 2 years old. Some games run decent, but most are unplayable. Please answer - I don't want to factory reset.

Just for context, most are running at max 15-20 fps, but the others are running on less thanq 10 fps.

I have a Sony Z3tc (Tablet Compact) SGP611 and recently started using custom ROMs instead of the stock one.

[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] blakkheartt12:
Yeah, VoLTE works but not VoWifi. Even when manually adding the option to turn VoWifi on, it doesn't work. I get crap service in my house but great service outside my house. I asked tech support about Wifi Calling and if it was provisioned on my account, but I was told if the phone can do it, the option will appear. I told them it can and it was working for another carrier. They said they don't know why it's not working. I didn't have time to stay and troubleshoot the issue though. Luckily the tech support person offered me an LTE Network Extender 2 for free. I have to wait until 10/16 for them to get more in stock though.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] plainbum:
OnePlus Tech support offered this LTE Network Extender 2 for free.?

Or was it Verizon?

I really want this phone but I cannot buy it if WIFI calling (VoWIFI?) isn't working with Verizon>

Verizon does not allow Wifi calling on devices it does not sell. So a Note 10 from Verizon has Wifi calling but an Unlocked Note 10 does not.

Not sure if this is an AP5 issue or wether its a windows live or outlook problem but but I can`t seem to add an email account

I hit new account. fill in my email address and password (its a hotmail.co.uk account) then hit the next button. It says "Auto setup founds setting for: hotmail.co.uk To complete setup and download email click next. It launches Opera and tells me all about the benifits of using email on my phone. there is a "try it out" button which opens a text box to add a mobile number but this must be a USA format number as its XXX XXX XXXX.

Tried various formats and never recieved any setting via text message.

Go back to Windows live and there is no new account added

Any ideas people?

err....you don't set up hotmail accounts through the mail application.

Go into the Windows Live application and sign in using that, and Bingo.....Your hotmail account appears in the mail application.

Of course if you have a network branded device without Windows Live installed.....I guess you'd need to find that and install that first.....:D

Any advantage on getting the 12 GB version over the 8GB ??

THanks!
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] tech_head:
I just got the 12GB version. I figured for the $50 extra is was a no brainer.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Baldesarra:
Tbh just get the 8GB Version. You don't need 12GB and won't need it in the next few years. Just think of it, most phones don't even have 8GB.

It's more or less a "gimmick".

Phone is not faster and even with 8GB all apps stay in RAM without the need to reload them. So no, there's no advantage, you just pay more money.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Bradl79:
I got the 12gb for just 50.00 more but I only average 4.9gb anyway so I think 8gb would be fine, but memory is managed, just like if u have a 4gb pc compared to an 8gb pc u will tell a difference. The more ram the more stuff is kept in memory.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] cobrajet7:
6 gb phones were released at a time where 4gb was the norm and people thought it was too much now it's barely enough. For $50 more it's a no brainier go for 12gb. Apps and features will use much more ram in the coming years.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] galaxys:
8 is plenty, but if you have an extra $50 then go for it...
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] jaseman:
Yes, but who keeps their phone for "years"?

The only advantage "may" possibly be the resale value will be a little higher.

This is 1+ we're talking about here and they are well known for being aggressive at arbitrarily killing apps in the background.... so no matter how much RAM you have installed the OS is still going to make sure most of it is left open and unused! Now they say they're working on a "fix" of sorts that will eliminate this behaviour so we will have to wait and see!

I am looking to install LineageOS as a replacement of stock Android on a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge.

As part of the migration, I need to keep years worth of old text messages and reimport those into Lineage's messaging app.

Is there a low-level way to export the data from the current OS install? My device is not (and will not be) connected with the Google Play store, limiting my access to utilities which offer this functionality.

I'm having the same issue with contacts, though I could theoretically export them by hand if it meant never connecting the phone to a Google account.

Looking for a Google-free, advertising-free FOSS way to accomplish this so I can finally banish Google from my device entirely.

Thanks in advance.
