[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] elliwigy:
vaultkeeper is not to replace knox.. samsung bases all their security on knox.. vaultkeeper is in addition to knox..

there is no way around tripping knox.. the knox warranty bit is a physical fuse that gets blown when bl is unlocked and u flash a custom firmware and there is no way to reset it..

magiskhide can sometimes "fake" it but with safetynet improving if ur device is set to use hardware then there wont be any way around that either in the long run
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] ryanallaire:
If your not worried about warranties or anything then tripping Knox doesn't matter?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] elliwigy:
it will likely cause most samsung apps not to work unless theres any tricks that still work also
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] OzGreatAndTerrible:
I don't care about voiding warranty. What happens when I try and flash anything custom on the device Knox gets tripped and the phone refuses to boot. Thats what I am talking about trying to bypass.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] checho_85:
I have Galaxy Tab Active3, which is locked to organization and it seems to have Knox enabled.

I want to Factory reset it so I can use it for private use.

I cannot get it into download mode, but I can get it in recovery mode. However, the Wipe data/factory reset option seems to be disabled.

Dialing *#0*# and *#*#88#*# from emergency dialer do not work either.

Any advice how to remove the Knox protection and factory reset the device, so I can set it up from scratch and remove the organization lock?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] AndiFeind:
I would be interested in, too.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] atlaspsp3:

[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wtvr:
I have a couple Lumia Phones on Win8.1 and I want to update to Win10, but obviously I cannot connect to the store. I cant believe I didnt know about the Windows Store shutting down before now!

The really bad news is my Lumia925 does not have a File Explorer app :confused: so I dont know how to install anything on this. I've tried downloading various .xap and .appx files, is there no way of updating this phone?
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wtvr:
so I was following the guides posted for setting up Windows Phone Internals to unlock the bootloader and mass storage, I thought I had done everything correctly as I found the FFU for my phone, I flashed it once and then selected unlock bootloader, but now my phone is softlocked with a blank screen that just says Nokia. I cant shut it off and this model Lumia 925 doesnt have anyway to remove the battery. hopefully I can recharge/reset it after the battery dies

I thought the 925 was like all the other Lumias but it doesnt even have an SD slot sigh! I guess this wasnt the right Lumia for me to buy lol :( at least I still have my Lumia 1520 working just fine, but I wish I didnt just throw away $50 on this thing

I was hoping to have a smaller sized WP (as backup to my 1520) but the only other model I want is the Lumia 950 and for that price I could buy a full windows tablet/winbook with keyboard lol... is the 950 worth it? or should I just wait a couple years for small notebooks to decrease in price

update: my battery finally died and when plugging in the charger the phone came back... now to see if i can figure out what went wrong :good:

[Fire TV General] Skel40:
First of all, you need to navigate to Total Commander, whichever file explorer that has root functionality and go to the root folder /data/ota_package to get the official stock rom. You also need root permissions to transfer this update file to the download folder so please refer to an Magisk installation page to properly flash in recovery. Push this .bin of the update after it downloads, cut and paste it to the downloads folder, rename the .bin of the .bin update file to .zip (Don't install the update in settings) then reboot into TWRP and flash it. I will provide the stock update image shortly for the latest version which is 6.2.7.1 on the Fire TV Stick 4K. This works on any Fire TV that's unable to update through the main ota page in settings. If you'd rather wait for a prerooted rom, go to [MENTION=3991724]rbox[/MENTION] for the latest updates. Thank you, let me know if there's any problems!

Hello,

I am having a problem with my ASUS C201PA. I waited until the EOL, which is coming up June 2020 for this particular model, to remove the write-protect screw for LibreBoot.

I was following this guide: https://gist.github.com/jcs/4bf59314d604538a5098

The strange thing is, despite having removed my write protect screw, the status is telling me it is still enabled.

I also cannot enable debugging features; it displays a message: “Debugging features were not completely enabled on this Chrome device.”

its possible. i know VZW sold their stake in the Costa Rica cell phone company a little over a year ago, and it became Clara. there is definitely a CDMA network (and possibly EVDO) down there, but you would only roam if VZ has roaming contracts with the carrier(s) there. check verizons site or call them up.

I'm building a home in CR and use the mogul when down there. I do not use phone service since it is very expensive. I use wifi and can receive and send email and skype. You can use skype by going to their web site, using wifi and looking/hearing your messages. I have a skype number so people can leave messages and I email them back. I also use the Igo mini bluetooth keyboard so it is easier to type responses. Wifi is generally available at hotels etc. I hope this helps.

I want to factory reset my Huawei Mediapad T3 10 inch tablet, but I have a concern. When I bought the tablet at Wal-Mart awhile back, a code was printed for me which I entered into the device on the first startup to allow me to use it. This code was not required anymore and setup proceeded like any other Android device relying on Google's ecosystem. I no longer have the code. Will this code be needed if I factory reset it? Or do I just need to authorize the reset with my Google login as normal? I'd hate to turn it into a useless paperweight by mistake. Is there a way around this if a code is required?

Stock Images For Fire TV Stick 4K

Issues: For some reason, Amazon is now forcing you to update in the setup wizard when downgraded. DO NOT update to any 6.2.8.0-latest firmware. It blows the efuse, causing the shorting unlock to be permanently disabled.

(6.2.7.1) Before 95 update (ending with a number 93):

So it's pure stock and can be flashed in twrp?
[Fire TV General] Skel40:
Yep it all works just fine once flashed, system components can be installed too without TWRP telling it not to, may need to reboot several times till it installs, when you start getting a new update that's not relating to 6.2.7.1 let me know and I'll update this forum. This stock image doesn't get rid of TWRP completely unfortunately.

Hello. How to install this update on a device with root? Root is important to me. Magisk need to be reinstalled?
[Fire TV General] puppinoo:
Hi,

Can you point me to a SAFE precedure to install play services (working Google Play store for paid apps?)

Thanks.
[Fire TV General] Skel40:
Yes. You need to download the zip file for Magisk to flash in recovery. Magisk doesn't need to be installed, it's stock so it's not rooted by default.
[Fire TV General] Skel40:
The closest you can get to is a Magisk addon for gapps. It's quite unstable at the moment as there is testing going on. Xposed is with the module, you may need to enable a separate module on Xposed Installer to enable addons. Link can be found here, it'll tell you how to use it. You need to be on 6.2.6.8 since it's the latest release for now and not 6.2.7.1 yet:

[Fire TV General] puppinoo:

[Fire TV General] Skel40:
There is no risk of bricking after flashing although it's recommended just to be safe, download and flash Magisk Manager For Recovery. It's in the Magisk addon store.
[Fire TV General] Donphillipe:
Does this update resolve the lipsync problem? Even before I applied the unlock and root, VLC player lip sync was noticeably out. After intalling Magisk and Kody, the Kody video player lip sync is also off but not as much as VLC (tested playing video from memory stick). Anyone else see this and resolve? I followed some youtube guide about clearing cache and rebooting and that helped a little but still out of sync.

I finally gave up trying to figure out how to use adb via TWRP and installed the addons package AFTV-MM which claims to do all these settings automatically. That's the point where I installed Kodi and tested the playback of some videos on my memory stick plugged into the USB over OTG. My ultimate goal is to play videos (in voice sync) from my home video media server, accessed over the network.
[Fire TV General] Skel40:
Yes! The update fixes the problem with lip syncing, and if it still has that problem try going to settings, display and sounds, audio, surround sound, and set that to stereo then reboot.
[Fire TV General] Donphillipe:
So with OTG & Mouse and a USB stick with the needed files on it I should boot to TWRP, slide to inturrupt, Install this image you provide via TWRP install, install Magisk 20.3 via TWRP install and finally install AFTV-MM zip via TWRP install and I am done, right? If this is right, I assume I reboot after every zip install or can I do them one after another? How about logging out of my account before, do I do that? What is the exact procedure for dummies. Please over-complicate if possible, I enjoy not making major mistakes due to inexperience. Thanks for your help!
[Fire TV General] Skel40:
AFTV-MM isn't supported on 6.2.7.1 at all through testings I've made. If you do want to keep AFTV-MM, it's better to stay on 6.2.6.8 as there's no new significant changes with the update to this new image. You can do one after another. Firstly, it's important to flash the image then Magisk and reboot. There is no need to log out of your account due to this update being stock and is acting like it's a new update as if you never unlocked it.
[Fire TV General] puppinoo:
Hi,

Tried to install the update using the 'twrp install' command but I'm receiving this error. Any advice?

Regards

Pino.
[Fire TV General] rbox:
Mine is saying "up to date" on 6.2.6.8 so it's possible Amazon pulled the 6.2.7.1 update. I will not be releasing a rom for this until I know they're pushing it again.
[Fire TV General] Donphillipe:
Where is the file, do you have a hub on the OTG connection with USB stick plugged in. There should be an option on the Install panel to mount USB storage if I remember correctly.
[Fire TV General] puppinoo:
I uploaded the file to /sdcard/Download/update/ folder.

No OTG connection. Just plain usb to microusb connectors.

BTW as rbox stated up here if really the 6.2.7.1 has been pulled by Amazon maybe it's wise to wait.

[Magisk] Niecks:
Hello,

I have the same issue (Paylib Caisse d'Epargne), i have tried everything you told in this topic. Nothing work ....

Someone have the solution ?
[Magisk] bolo59:
I do not know if the following will be useful for your issue, but this is how I get my root be hidden from the Crédit Mutuel (CM) app.

I have a Lineage OS 16 (Android 9) running on my Samsung A5 2017 device with Magisk 20.4 and Magisk Manager 7.5.1 installed (with of course Manager hidden by a random package name and the CM app processes checked in Magisk Hide).

Despite all that and after cleaning the CM app storage data and cache, and even after a fresh reinstallation of the CM app, rebooting, etc..., my CM app still started by the warning that my phone was rooted !

Actually, my Samsung phone uses two storage: the internal one (32 Gb) and a Samsung SD card (32 Gb), formatted as extended internal storage.

The CM app was installed on the SD card rather than the native internal storage, along with some installation files I used for rooting the phone (including the magisk.zip and magisk_manager.apk files).

Here is what worked fine for me:

- First, after reading your discussion above, I deleted the previous installation files from the SD card, because those files could indicate that Magisk or whatever rooting methods had been applied on my device.

- Second, and this may be what resolved the issue for me, I moved the CM app from the SD card to the native internal storage, so that it is now installed on a separate storage than the Magisk Manager packages.

Well, now I have a functional root that the CM app does not see anymore.
[Magisk] Orphee:
I don't have a separate SD slot... I deleted files but still don't work.
