[Google Pixel 3a Guides, News, & Discussion] radensb:
Hi all. I have been searching high and low for information on this specific question:

Will activating an unlocked Pixel 3a on Verizon disable the OEM Unlock and bootloader unlock capability?

I got a Verizon variant before I realized that there was not way to unlock the bootloader. Bummer. So, I returned it for an Unlocked version from Google, which I just received tonight. I breezed through the setup (without the SIM card) and noticed that OEM Unlock was disabled stating I needed to connect to the internet. So, I enabled WiFi and the OEM Unlock was then available. It would seem that I an now able to follow the unlocking procedure.

My goal is to unlock the bootloader and root, but do I have to do it immediately? My concern is that activating the phone with my Verizon SIM could:

1) Prevent unlocking the bootloader in the future if I don't unlock it before I activate with SIM (research seems to indicate that factory resets will undo disabling OEM Unlock if this can happen if I understand correctly)

2) Re-lock an unlocked bootloader - maybe this is not even possible?

I don't want to mess this up. All the info I am finding are discussions related to trying to unlock a Verizon variant and I cannot find good info on what happens to bootloader unlocking options on unlocked phones that are activated on Verizon. The only reason I may want to delay this process is because I dont have a lot of time at the moment and would rather not rush the bootloader unlock and root process. However, my HTC 10 is in bad shape and need a phone to get through the holidays. I was hoping that I could activate it on Verizon now, use it with its locked bootloader for a few weeks, and when things cool down after the holidays, implement the bootloader unlock and root.

If that is not advisable, what about unlocking the bootloader immediately (doesn't seem too hard and I have used ADB before), and activating without root. Then root later? Any possibility of concern #2?

Can OTA's re-lock a bootloader and prevent future unlocking?

I appreciate anyone's incite, experience, or links to the needed information for clearing this up. Thanks you!
[Google Pixel 3a Guides, News, & Discussion] jmtjr278:
I would advise you to unlock the bootloader asap. If you wait it will be a pain later because unlocking causes loss of data. If you don't care about that, wait as long as you like.

As far as Verizon is concerned, if the phone is unlocked, I don't see how they could possibly lock the bootloader. They may restrict your services but they can't touch the lock status of a device you purchased.

No it depends.on which country you are in. Some countries it is not allowed.

[Realme X2 Pro Questions & Answers] aladin6:
Call recording is not present in EU ROM. But I'm pretty sure that it will be there as soon as custom stock ROM is out as I think it's simply a property to enable in some file (needs root).

[Realme X2 Pro Questions & Answers] asusgarb:
It doesn't have Google Dialer. And you can't install it unless you're rooted, because there is no Google Dialer Framework installed. If you are rooted, there is a magisk module that installs Google Dialer Framework, and after that you can install google dialer (but that doesn't have call recording).
[Realme X2 Pro Questions & Answers] asusgarb:
How did you do that? I followed the whole procedure, but I still can't have call recording.

Maybe I missed something, or I'm not checking in the right place to activate it.

Can you please help me?
[Realme X2 Pro Questions & Answers] cyexdeah:
I just followed the instructions. If you're rooted, just go to /system/etc/oppoRegionMarkFeatures/ in your file manager. You should see a bunch .xml files with country codes, which apparently turn on/off certain features, but for call recording they're probably not relevant. I copied com.oppo.region mark.EUEX.xml first somewhere safe and opened it with an editor. There's a line that says feature name="oppo.phone.nodisplayrecord". I deleted the line, saved and rebooted. This activates the hidden option. Then go to settings, search for "call recording". You should see "System Apps > Call > Call recording" Activate the option "record all calls" (or "record unknown numbers"), call some number. You should see a green "recording standby" icon in the call wait screen and text changes automatically once it starts recording. Recordings are listed in the "Recorder" app. Voila. Ping me later and I can post the screenshots of the settings screens.

HTH

[Realme X2 Pro Questions & Answers] asusgarb:
But didn't you replaced the original one with the edited one?

I did it (with TWRP File Manager).

Did you only edited it, without replacing it?

What I did is:

1. Copy the EUEX XML to "internal memory".

2. Edit the copied file removing the whole line (from < to >) and without leaving the blank line.

3. Reboot to TWRP.

4. From TWRP File Manager copy the edited file to origin folder, overwriting the stock XML).

5. Reboot to OS.

As you can see in the screenshot, no more "nodisplayrecord" line and no blank line before "blacklist"line.
[Realme X2 Pro Questions & Answers] cyexdeah:
Yes. I browsed to the directory and edited the XML file directly using my file manager (I use X-plore but any rooted app should also do).

The copy I made was not for offline-editing purposes, it's a habitual backup just in case :)

Try editing the file directly. If it doesn't work, you might wanna check if the line is in the other XML files in the same folder. Maybe there is a country-specific XML file.

ps: I'm on 11_A.08, EU version.
[Realme X2 Pro Questions & Answers] cyexdeah:
After editing the XML, rebooting, etc. recording is not automatically activated. You have to activate it in the settings.
[Realme X2 Pro Questions & Answers] asusgarb:
i usually use Solid Explore, but it didnt make me modify it.

now i've replaced modified one with backup stock and i'll try modifying it as you did. maybe this way will work...

EDIT: I finally managed to activate it, but I needed one more passage. I also had to go in "System>Ect>OppoRegionFeatures" and there I deleted that "no displayrecord" line from every xml file with that line inside. and after reboot there it was. Thank you very much for your help.
[Realme X2 Pro Questions & Answers] cyexdeah:

[Android Head-Units] ATJ:
I use the "macrodroid" app (similar to Tasker) to automate some things. Basically, the device works as it should. When it is started for the first time, the device boots and Macrodroid loads. But: some macros are executed - others not.

After ignition off, the device goes into sleep mode, then I turn on ignition within a few seconds, macrodroid is still active. If the ignition is switched off for a longer period, macrodroid will no longer be active. This behavior is apparently normal: all unnecessary apps are killed. That would not be a big problem if some system settings were not reset:

All permissions that I have assigned to Macrodroid to perform certain actions are reset. So some macros work, other won't. So I have to manually reset all authorizations every time after a long ignition-off.

In addition, the Google TTS setting for increasing the volume during text output does not survive the sleep mode: this is also reset again and again.

Is there any way to protect these settings and / or set them automatically when restarting / waking up?

Thank you very much

[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Virus1x:
So I'm bootloader unlocked for 10.0.0.1 I'm about to update to 10.0.3.

Everytime I try to flash recovery or boot recovery with twrp it doesn't work.

If I load it via magisk it works sometime but other times causes bootloops.

My biggest issue is booting/flashing twrp and When I flash a custom rom.

It says to flash on A and B. Sometime I can flash to one but when u change to other slot it wolnt flash or it'll show like it's encrypted any help? I've been on basic OS with NoLimits but now I wanna do kernel, rom flashing etc. Help?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] RokCruz:
If you want to update from .1 to .3 just do this(keeping in mind that you already had twrp and magisk)

Put update.zip in your internal storage

Go to settings>system>updates>local upgrade

Select update and install

Wait to finish but DONT REBOOT

go to magisk and install twrp installer(I use V3.3.1-74)

Then install magisk to inactive slot(after ota)

Reboot and that's it!

You can install custom kernel from twrp or fk kernel or any other app

If you want to install a rom you had to install to both slots(keep in mind that ROMs always be installed on inactive slot)

So make a factory reset(default by twrp wipes data and dalvik)

Install your rom and don't reboot(example if you are on A slot it will be installed to B)

Install twrp installer

Reboot to recovery( this will change slots A to B for example)

Install your rom (slot B to A and you will have your rom in both slots right?)

Again install twrp installer

Reboot to recovery

Flash gapps( if rom don't have it) magisk and kernel I personally recommend to flash after first boot

EDIT:

And another thing, if you get your internal storage encrypted and you can't access your rom,gapps,magisk you can always use adb sideload:

In your platform tools folder put your rom,magisk, etc and in twrp go to advanced>adb sideload and swipe to initiate.

In your command window use this:

adb sideload <nameofyourfile.zip>

Example: adb sideload magisk.zip

This will transfer and install magisk, ROMs and gapps

Here's the hinge on the rom right? Install on slot in recovery OK good got it. Reboot recovery try to install on other slot there is nothing on phone or its encrypted.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] GalaxyAce2001:
Hi,

I recently bought a Samsung A50, which I tried to connect to my companies WiFi.

WiFi-Auth uses EAP-TLS, so it's basically WPA2 Enterprise.

I imported the companies CA- and my User-Certificate (both appear in "User-Certificates").

But when I try to connect to the SSID I can only choose the CA-Certificate (BOTH certificates appear in the dialoguebox!).

But the usercertificate-field remains empty, I got no choices to make there...

It works just fine using my Samsung A5 or an iPhone 8 by using the exact same certificates and importing them the same way...

I already installed the newest firmware.

What can I do to solve the problem?

Seems strange to me, this usually works even with very old WiFi-equipment.

Not really software support from LG is terrible, Pie update drains battery. Using custom ROM helps a bit. Only few ROM development is active (Havoc, Pixel Experience Plus, Lineage). Unless you want to use it with Nougat, which has best battery life. Even budget phones runs faster then LG G6.

I think you are going about it wrong. Instead of booting to download mode, try booting to recovery mode via Home, Vol Up and Power and then selecting Factory Reset. This is always necessary before you can use download to flash a ROM via Odin and it might make using Odin unnecessary.

of course i tried to get into receovery mode but the problem is i can't - when i do home, vol up and power absolutely nothing happens, i only get into download mode :(

[QUOTE what i do not really understand is why FRP does not let odin flash an original samsung firmware ?[/QUOTE]

This sounds more like a binary issue. I have reason to believe you are what's called an FRP Binary Lock. Recovery is usually inaccessable or re-routed and you cannot "seem" to use Odin3 but in fact you can. This issue you apparently are having sounds oddly like some issues I've had on these devices and is often a result of bad Rooting or invalid firmware being installed. This overloads the binaries and puts the device in a locked mode with symptoms of an inaccessible Recovery a difficult to use Odin3 or a bootloop. Most of the time I hear of a notification somewhere of an FRP lock. If this is the situation you are in here is a link to a page of mine that will give you the files to helpfully solve your issue. Let me know if that works or not.
