[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] rmaathuis:
My OnePlus 7, also with Android 10, had only 11GB. I am really wondering why the system size on the 7t is so much bigger.
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] rsimran:
Mine is 30gb system storage.
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] Conkerts:
Same here.

For the future, when I actually need the space (bc some vendor, that makes awesome phones still refuses to add a simple combo microsd slot into the dual sim slot :P),

do you guys know way to reduce that space to something more sensible ?

My good ol' XP was below 2GB and a freshly installed Ubuntu is under 5GB, so Android is never worth 30GB ...

I may accept double for the useful A/B stuff, but that's it.

(And yeah, the previous OP, including my OP6 had also more sensible System partition sizes)
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] Lossyx:
Not possible. This is all thanks to Google's new partitioning scheme.

Think it's pretty ridiculous too...

Hi friends, I decided to make a game. It took about 2 months to develop. Sometimes it’s a pity to invest 100% if you are not sure of success. So there is still something to improve. I’m waiting for your ideas and suggestions! Thanks!

Development Environment: Construct 2 (html5+js). Export to Android with Cordova

Solve interesting and fun tasks on the car. The game has realistic physics. Therefore it is necessary to consider braking acceleration and gravity. To pass the level, throwdown two policemen and their car into the abyss. Then have time to park your car as if nothing had happened in the parking space. The more accurately you park, the more points you earn.

Touch the red arrow with your car to engage reverse gear.

In some levels you will see TNT. It is activated when a car hits him. Boxes with a cross can also be removed by clicking on them. Swinging tires on chains will help to dump the police and start the rotation mechanism

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] cultofluna:
You're missing the reserve partition that oneplus includes emojis and more stuff ...

You need to install the rom through local upgrade to get back the emojis...

Or flash this mod to get emojis back ..

I tried both, but local upgrade the full rom.zip via os gui didn't worked for me. This reserve.zip works well, but I would like to have a solution without this extra installing.

Any ideas, how to (local) upgrade to 10.3.2 the right way? OS based method or full TWRP process? Thanks for any tipps in advance.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Striatum_bdr:
Read first posts in my thread in Guides News section. Update within os.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] henningsieh:
OK, I did. But I didn't find something helpful regarding this missing emojis problem. Perhaps I'm missing something.

I installed the current ROM on all possible ways now, but all emojis are still staying gone.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Striatum_bdr:
You said that reserve.zip method was working I supposed you had you issue fixed, and that you asked for a method to update the ROM. Eventually you need to fix first your emoji issue. Then you can do the ROM update.

Or use MSM tool to start from scratch.

The OTA update will fail, you need to update manually

Using fastboot and the full firmware
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] lentm:
Here's what I do to keep TWRP and Magisk with OTA installation.

1. Reboot to TWRP

2. Sideload OTA zip on TWRP (Advanced - ADB Sideload)

adb sideload otafilename.zip

3. Back to main screen of TWRP, and install TWRP zip to install TWRP on both slots

4. Reboot to recovery to boot to a new OTA installed slot

5. Install Magisk zip

6. Reboot to system

[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] bosox284:
My dad's phone had the OEM unlocking button grayed out like some others, but the message said that it wasn't allowed on carrier-locked devices. I'm wondering if it wasn't carrier-locked if you'd be able to unlock the bootloader. Verizon's policy is that they're locked to Verizon for 60 days, so I'm curious to see if they might be willing to waive that if the device is paid in full or for a long time customer. My dad doesn't want to unlock his and I don't have a device yet, so I can't test it out. Has anyone tried, or would they be willing to try to call Verizon to request that their device be unlocked to see if this is possible?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] jmartin72:
Carrier locked, and bootloader locked are not the same thing. The Pixels purchased from Verizon can be run on different carriers after 60 days, but Their bootloaders will always be locked unless someone finds a hack. I wouldn't count on anyone doing that because they didn't find one for the 2, or the 3. The OG Pixel had one for a short time, but only under a certain firmware version. If you want one with an unlocked bootloader, buy one from Google. Verizon will not unlock the bootloader.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] bosox284:
Yes, they are two different things, but on my dad's 4XL the OEM unlock is blocked because the device is carrier locked. With reports that some Verizon devices have had their bootloader unlocked, I'm wondering if the Verizon variant may be bootloader unlockable once it is no longer carrier locked.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] jmartin72:
If it's a Verizon variant, it will never have an unlocked bootloader period unless someone finds a hack.

You only have to read these threads for a little bit to realize the Verizon variants will never have an unlocked bootloader
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] bosox284:
I appreciate you taking to respond but this isn't helpful. Past devices don't necessarily indicate future trends. There are reports that individuals have been able to unlock their bootloader with Verizon locked devices. See here:

Whether this is an oversight by VZW or a sign of things to come will remain to be seen, so I stand by the question I'm asking and am looking for someone to give it a try. I think there is a chance, albeit very slim, that once the devices are no longer carrier locked, you may be able to unlock the bootloader.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] CyberpodS2:
Just for the record, the Pixel 2XL is littered with claims similar to this. Maybe you are correct and it'll be different this time... Maybe people are either trolls or liars or just don't know what they are talking about.

Only time will tell but some very smart folks gave up on the Taimen after two years of trying.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] wolfballz:
Well I called Verizon today and told them I was traveling out of country. The agreed to unlock device. My OEM Unlock used to be greyed out with the Device is Carrier Locked. After they unlocked it for me just 15 min ago the OEM Unlocking option is still greyed out but the message now reads Connect to the internet or contact your carrier. So it's still greyed out but I wonder if I try fastboot unlock if it would unlock it and make it not greyed out.

[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Hxonper:
So i have never used a Xiaomi device but im looking forward to getting the Mi 9T pro version ,what i got from searching was that one of the main reasons that Xiaomi devices are cheaper is that Xiaomi makes or intends to make most of its profit from showing ads and stuff on the software they have installed on their phones.

If this is the case, then im really curious to know why they would officially give users the tools to unlock their bootloaders ( i know the whole waiting game stuff but still they are officially supporting it ) and possibly root their phones and from what i've gathered it doesn't even void the warranty!!

wouldn't it make much more sense if they instead tried to lock their bootloaders so that users were forced to use their software?

to be clear im not saying that they should change their policy in this way, im very happy that i can root the device and not void the warranty . im just saying that it doesn't make a lot of sense that they'd officially give you the tools and permissions to stop them from profiting from the users.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Aimara:
FYI i am using k20 pro china rom , yet to see any ads , lol cause i dont use most of their apps . the most forced ads i see is using this xda forum on pc , lol
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] SlimBeaner:
Hi, well ok they shouldn't change their policy. Its a fine business model. Few people actually want to root the phone and do all that - they put up with the ads and all that, ads are relatively common online.

But not only that - those people who really want to remove such ads are the people like you and me even who /want/! to buy more of these phones and support the company further. Its not like you maybe will never buy another xiaomi. Once you get the phone you will see.

Its good to have it both ways though? It covers all bases. BUT! Ads are not the entire thing you are on about because like me and others over time we have considered ads wrong - ads don't make the phone completely, its a subsidy. Well just 'one of' several subsidies.

They give you the tools I think because if you really want to remove ads in order to use the phone then you must like the phone enough. Also I think that the 'big' ad days are further and further behind them as they become more profitable and can say to themselves they can make larger launch dates etc and be increasingly well known and purchased - they will probably find even better ways to implement these things.

So for people like you and me and others the ad-loss is not a big deal - its more a way for them to bring you the phone rather than to smack us round the ears with ads for the sake of it.

What a great phone.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Hxonper:
interesting !! i thought only the global rom was nearly ad-free.

Haha there are ways around your pc browsing experience as well ;)
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Hxonper:
well yeah it has been a positive point for me when i was considering whether i should get this device or not and yeah i agree the percentage of users who'd root their devices is very low.

however i just get suspicious when big tech companies try to be on the good side and well in this case sell flagship phones with low prices and also support those who only want the hardware!
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Aimara:
Hmmm these ads on PC seem to be Google based, wtf they keep showing the Adidas shoes I wanted to get but I am holding back, resist .... Haha
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] ntmalol:
Real "flagship" phones costs around $200-$300 to make. Xiaomi is only making nominal profit from selling their hardware and yes, it also relies on ads through its MIUI OS to gain some more. But overall it is really not that surprising that other phone companies put huge margin of profit on their devices to make more money and many people think that's really how much it costs. lol

To put it into perspective, a $1,000 pixel phone actually costs around $250 to make. Same with iphones and Samsung phones. Samsung flagships might cost a bit higher because of its flagship parts.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] BlackCommando:
I used to see ads on my old Mi4i. Those were on phone UI such as tasks view. I was pretty bummed about that. Few years later I'm on a Xiaomi phone again, but this time I'm using Netguard firewall with ad block host filters and haven't seen an ad yet.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] ntmalol:
Just use adguard DNS. No need to install anything. It also blocks ads on apps.

No link because moderators might think that I am advertising it, well, I am sort of, but it is my humble suggestion to you. :angel:
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] BlackCommando:
Thanks, I did use Adguard DNS and it blocked almost all ads. But I moved to Netguard to use multiple host files.

Another reason was that unfortunately MIUI firewall doesn't let us block wifi for system apps.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Thordelan:
Been using Xiomi phones for 10 months now (both MIUI 10) and I'm yet to see an ad. I actually had no idea ads were included in MIUI.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Hxonper:
I agree, once Apple started selling phones for 1k $ and higher it also gave competitors like Samsung more room to increase their prices. "flagship" has kinda turned into a marketing term for the huge sum of money you need to pay rather than the top tier hardware and software support you're getting.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Hxonper:
Great but also not great !!! great that they don't bombard you with ads and don't ruin your experience and also not great cause showing ads is their way of making money and when that's not happening then what are they up to? idk maybe that's just me being paranoid :confused:
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] ntmalol:
This is for you and everyone who is reading this, you can disable MSA (MIUI System Ads).

--Go to the setting menu

--Go to Additional settings

--Tap on Authorization & revocation option

--Disable MSA (MIUI System Ads).

after turning msa off, the phone will stop collecting data from your device and sending you ads.

Unfortunately, to get an ad-free user experience you must disable ads recommendation in Mi Browser, Mi Security, Mi Music, and other Mi apps manually.

[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Hxonper:
thank you for your response . i hope it does really stop the data collection. in case it doesn't, does rooting, changing the recovery to a custom one and also installing a custom Rom like LOS stop Xiaomi from collecting data?

and also i read that in order to unlock the bootloader i need to install the vendor and firmware for my device , could this act as a backdoor for xiaomi?
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] ergysramaj:
If you use miui select to not send data ( should be during setup , other places as well ) .

Xiaomi eu removes all adds in apps ( but that could be considered custom rom ) .

I had adds in apps in mi global , im using miuimix custom rom so i have yet to see an add in apps ( besides browser ).

I don't think id buy a phone that don't allow bootloader unlock. As long as i have a choice I can't complain.

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] CepgShadow:
Sorry I'm on mobile! Poor formating and typing is all my fault :(

So I'm out of my mind trying to fix and find a guide to fix my issues. This is how it all started

I was running the latest magisk (20.1) and OOS (9.0.17), when I installed Vance through magisk. I didn't read the instructions all the way, so I installed the module, it worked, then I saw that you can uninstall the YouTube system apk then install Vance. I deleted the Vance on my next reboot AND uninstalled YouTube system app, and I got stuck rebooting my phone. I have TWRP installed on my phone, not flashed (I didn't know the issues with TWRP when I installed the zip through TWRP). When it got stuck booting, I flashed magisk Uninstaller and it fixed the issue. I tried to reinstall magisk 20.1, and I got the same issue, stuck at boot. So I was able to go home, and use the oneplus 6t manager found here on the forums, which roots with magisk 18.0, and, it worked! But I couldn't update to the new magisk without it freezing my boot. After some deliberation on it, I decided to wipe my phone to try and fix it, and TWRP was still installed, and all my issues still persisted. After this setback, I found fastboot rom also on xda, and got it working, did an Ota to 9.0.17 from 9.0.16. Everything was working, until I went into my recovery and it wiped my phone. I don't even know where to go from here and I need help. Any and all help would be appreciated!

Edit: I just local upgraded to android 10 oos, and it seems to be fine. I don't know yet fully because I'm not at my house!
