[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomtom666:
Well seems like I did more or less then I remember..

I wanted to make shure how by doing it an my Hello 7 using the same conditions.

But for some reason I can not get a new version of twrp running.

Every time I port one and try to install it and its just reboots in to Os.

Even if I use the one you ported witch works, when I unpack and repack it will not boot.

I am using the same kitchen that I used to port for the hello 10 .

@Dawnowl444 For now I just tell you what I did to remove the encryption.

First thing, you have to be rooted.

https://xdaforums.com/t/phh-treble-...or-phhusson-source-based-treble-gsis.3811563/

I used the Aonly.zip and flashed it in twrp.

In phh 10 I installed the SuperUser 1.0.3.3 APK.

Using a root browser I looked up the fstab in /vendor/etc/fstab.devicename And tried to mod it..but it did not work. Every time it said..(saved) but nothing changed.

So in twrp again I flashed this.

https://xdaforums.com/t/deprecated-...abler-11-2-2020.3817389/page-64#post-85280653

I rebooted in Os and I was able to mod the fstab in /vendor/etc/fstab.devicename using rootbrowser, I had to change forcefdeorfbe in to encryptable.

Words like forceencrypt, forcefdeorfbe or fileencryption need to be changed to encryptable.

Then Rebooted in Twrp, I formatted data , Changed the data partition from ext4 to ext2 and back to ext4.

Followed by a factory reset. Just to be sure.

I Had to reconfigure Android, but if you look at settings/security/encryption you will see it is not encrypted.

Now Twrp should work.

Let me know I it works 4 You.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dawnowl444:
I do not recommend to modify vendor partition, I guess it works but that's so unclean...

You have to unpack and repack recovery not playing with a root browser, use the kitchen that's working with hovatek autoporter that's how I got my first one working. It's there that you should modify twrp.fstab with encryptable

Ho and important information if you don't know you must use 9_0 branch or builds for twrp
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomtom666:
I just used the latest android image kitchen to mod the twrp recovery. It worked ok for my hello 10, but not for the hello 7.

I'll give the hovatek ones a try see if that wil work.

I modded the recovery.fstab in the recovery in the kitchen, before repacking and flashing it. I dont know if this is needed.

After this I installed Universal DM-Vertity,ForceEncrypt, Disk Quota disabler in twrp, this should mod the fstab.mt8167 in vendor/etc (witch is the same as the recovery.fstab in your recovery.)

The fstab.mt8167 does however not change after installing the universal Dm, but you can change it manualy.

After it has been changed a propper format of the data partition is needed for the decryption to go.

After doing this I was able to use twrp like I normaly do..for flashing and backing up my data.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dawnowl444:
Well I can't vouch for hello10 but for hello7 I had some troubles with latest kitchen so... Ho and the SOC is the same between the hello7 and the hello10 but maybe the kernel is different so change it just in case when you repack.

You shouldn't have to edit recovery.fstab you should just edit twrp.fstab but you can also not wanting to bother with twrp.fstab and mod directly recovery.fstab

Well I don't know that well those zip your talking about maybe they modify vendor for a good reason but I find it sketchy

Well if TWRP is working good for you the other ones will be happy to flash stuff

Kitkat only software if I recall but you're welcome to try it
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomtom666:
I have one you can use for basic stuff.

Like backup..flash..wipe.. Mount to pc in twrp does not work.

I have been wiping, flashing and back-upping without any problem..but use is at own risk.

To be able to mount partitions in twrp A decryped data partition is needed.

But then you can back up your sh*t :)

Its the latest one I ported, and works perfect for me, so the last one I'll make for now.

Have funn with it.

Hey. Has anyone managed succesfully work to put this android 11 on Archos?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomtom666:
I was able to run Havoc Os 4.10, but it was not running smooth so I went back to the newest android 10 I could could find.

After installing apps including magisk app on gsi 10 I wanted to reboot in recovery.

It turned off and ..wel.. nothing happens.. the screen stays dark ..no logo..

I am still able to get it in brom mode, but thats it..

My hello 7 said goodbye ..

Were you ever able to get a working backup using any tools?

I was looking in to making a backup.bin using the miraclebox app but no matter what I do I does not want to connect.

Other tool I tried dont seem to work on the mt8167 .
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dawnowl444:
Magisk is not compatible with A Only device like the archos hello, you need a patched version that has not been updated since for magisk to work. This may be the reason of your bootloop.

I advise you to stay on LineageOS wich the most stable rom from what I know

Can you still access fastboot or recovery ? Via button or via mtkclient or else ?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K-BOX2022:
I'm trying the MTK Droid program but it gets mad about the android version and that it doesn't recognize the chipset. What is the latest 10 gsi and what program backup DA agent do you know?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomtom666:
I was hoping to get mtkclient up and running to mod the Hello.. but it is getting this error.. ERROR: STATUS_DA_HASH_MISMATCH (0xC0070004)

So it seems to be the wrong DA.. And since I am unable to get one from Archos ....or even get a mail to them..

Without the DA I dont see any hope of getting it running again.

It is not doing much, and no screen activity... I can only get it in brom mode wen connecting so no fastboot or recovery.

Even with the complete backup and scatter file I am not able to get any tool I tried to backup of flash any partition.

The only thing that worked was ADB / fastboot.

There are boxes out there witch claim to be able to flash any mtk ..but I am not spending 100 Euro on one.. A new hello 7 is haf that price.. And I don't even know if it would work.

For now I wil just keep looking on any way to get a mt8167 flashed in brommode..

For gsi take a look here https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/wiki/Generic-System-Image-(GSI)-list
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dawnowl444:
Yeah I tried as well flashing stuff with mtkclient but without da we are back at the beginning

I was more thinking of trying "python mtk payload --metamode FASTBOOT"

When you maintain minux button (or maybe plus don't remember) while powering it on, can't you access preloader menu ?

Yeah I don't think spending 100€ on it would be very wise and I don't think they would succeed. In france ac70hello are out of stock or too expensive same for ac10hello. If you find a not too much expensive archos hello 10 i may would buy it for a bit of change

They are all based on the mtk bypass utility but that does not work .

Does it work for you? can you make a backup or flash your Hello ??

I get no menu what so ever .

I tried it with new battery.. power cord and usb to pc.

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomtom666:
For some reason I am unable to use the sp flash tool.

I got an used Hello 7 for just 10 euro, I tried to back it up but it does not work the way I want.

This one is now running my latest TWRP and android 10 lineageOS.

It's used as a mediaplayer so I can listen to my music collection stored on my nas.. and some streaming.

Since it is running smooth I am not playing with this one.. maybe when I find a way to get a rom image form it I get a chance to get the other 1 working again.

I have been playing with android devices since I got my motorola milestone, a long time ago :) and never had so many problems with a device.. I was always able to get them up and running again.. So we 'll see what happens..

But you were lucky to buy for 10 euros!!!

Do you know any tool to mod boot.img or kernel so you can increase GHz than manufacturer allows?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dawnowl444:
Don't. Just don't, you need overclocking software with root (or kernel tweaking don't remember) but you'll just get overheat, fire hasard, instability and just don't...

It's not a gaming device or such it's not made for intense cpu usage so I advice you not to or you will fry your device. Try android go patcher or things like that if you have a laggy experience

For me, I gained wifi calling when I used the TGP installer to choose the correct CSC for my region and provider. To be honest, I hate wifi calling because I wander around while I'm on the phone and leaving WIFI reception often drops the call but that is how I got it back.

There are numerous ways to change your CSC. You should do an EFS backup first, and I have no idea what the correct CSC is for TMO.

3. No idea. From what I've seen, it seems pretty good to me.

4. I think the battery runs down in approximately two thirds of the time the battery in the Touch takes to run down. However, that's just based on what I've seen - it's not the result of an official experiment.

5. Good question - my Touch was never stable. I have no idea.

Hi,

I have a Lenovo vibe k6 note stock rom on Android 7.0.

Calls are working perfectly in Jio 4G (volte).

Recently I switched to Vodafone 4G (no volte).

When I try to place calls, the device is not falling back to 3G. I am unable to switch the network to 3G or 2G manually also. However 2G works when I change my primary data Sim.

I tried swapping the sim slots, toggling enhanced 4G services, restoring the device software, changing sim cards, replacing my sim card, the same problem persists.

I am using this sim with Lumia 640 XL LTE now. This issue is not present with other phones.

Any help would be appreciated.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] obuchovskij:
Dear all,

I bought a LG V20 VS995 on ebay. Unfortunately I don't get LTE. I live in Germany and bought this VS995 from the USA with the verizon branding. I've already googled and looked on xda but couldn't solve it. My network in Germany - "o2" - uses three different LTE bands: 800mhz, 1800mhz and 2600mhz. All of them are supported by the LG V20 VS995.

I've also heard that the V20 has a weak LTE antenna. Could this be the reason?

Could you please suggest me something?

Thank you in advance

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] obuchovskij:
Hi,

thanks for your answer. To be honest I don't want any other phone. I bought the V20 because of the quad dac. I paid 130$ and this is a great price. V30/V40 are a lot more expensive and the new V50 costs about 1260$ in Germany.

3g works great with my V20, I get about 6mbit/s down and 1,5mbit/s up. It's enough for me. Don't want to pay more at the moment.

LTE would be nice to have, but it's not a must have.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Jacks232:
Hi I also have a vs995 which I am using in Australia. To enable LTE you need to google your mobile providers APN settings then type it in your in Mobile networks > Access Point Names

For example I am with Telstra so I google Telstra 4g apn and then i wrote it in and it worked for me. Hope this helps you.

If you still get 3g after that then you can download an app that forces 4g only as since it will stay on 3g if 4g signal is weaker than 3g
