Based on the above, I have a script where I do more then only removing the alipay, ifaa and soter stuff.

Though, with the appreciated input of [MENTION=4405529]nvertigo67[/MENTION], I modified this a little to make it usable for every TWRP / Rom combination.

Here is the part related to the deblob, which you can use as a bash script in twrp terminal to remove stuff.

I removed the parts not related to the deblob.

[General Questions and Answers] duranox:
Currently my phone is flashing the twrp image about every 5th sec, i've tried every way i can think of to enter recovery mode but it seems completely dead aside from the flashing. I decided to install magisk again but i had problems finding it so i decided to reboot the phone and i selected install the twrp app, did it brick because of that?
[General Questions and Answers] ktmom:
Your device forum is here. If you look through the OnePlus 6T Guides, News, & Discussion section for your device, there are several "return to stock" and unbricking threads that will probably help you. The OnePlus 6T Questions & Answers forum will be the best place to get device specific assistance.
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] joakimbo:
In the thread it says 10.0.8 is supported, but only HD65AA. I've got the HD65BA, Europe. As far as I know, there are no differences in these stock roms. Do you think it will still work? Anyone else who've tried?
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] Lossyx:
It should be supported (10.0.8.HD65AA).

Download latest module, flash it alongside the overlay mount fix from magisk Downloads in Magisk Manager
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] joakimbo:
I mean the HD65BA, not AA
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] Lossyx:
Yep sorry!

Edit: Nevermind. I don't see your version being supported, however you can join telegram and ask if he can add your version number to the installation zip.
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] MrGimpGrumble:
Hello All, can someone explain what this is? it looks like its a module that you flash over OOS to add more customization etc.. if so, would it work on the 10.3.1 global version of the 7T? also, if possible can someone send me the link so i can check it out?
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] Eddiemc:
Any news here? Joakimbo, did you check in the telegram group?

I'm also on the EU version like you and renovate sounds very cool. Seems to provide a lot of the missing options I wish oos had, and as a magisk module sounds quite interesting.

Edit:

Yes, renovate 11 for 10.0.8.HD65BA working perfectly!

Latest download in the telegram thread.

Installed the overlay fix 2.0 first..

All good. CRT, flashlight on power button etc..
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] Eddiemc:
Massive module for magisk. Basically a custom ROM in the form of a magisk module!

Lots of extra customization. Reminding me of exposed module back in the days..

Simple installation, 10.3.1 is supported (I think). Find the orig thread and the link for the telegram group.
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] MrGimpGrumble:
Yeh I ended up flashing it and it's pretty awesome.

Thanks for the reply

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] sushrutvaidya98:
Providing a summary in the beginning, to help you understand the situation.

Summary: Left phone to charge overnight. Woke up to a bootloop stuck at the model name screen.

After a long night with friends, I came home with my phone at around 8% battery. Since I had a lot of work to do in the morning, I decided to charge it overnight and have a full battery to work with. However, things went upside-down as I woke up.

Sleepy me thinks it's just one of those auto-restart updates, but after over 30 minutes, it's still stuck at the model name. That's when I start to get worried. I boot it to the recovery, where "E: [libfs_mgr] is_dt_compatible (): firmware info was not valid : '/proc/device-tree/firmware/android/compatible: No such file or directory" appears at the bottom, followed by a "dm-verity verification failed..." message. I don't know why my phone's behaving like this or stuck in this loop since I use it only for simple things (messaging, calls, social media, browsing etc.).

The only way to turn the phone off when it's stuck in this bootloop is by holding the Volume Down + Power button for a few seconds while the phone is connected to the charger. Any other method, just results in it restarting and bootlooping all over again. I tried booting it into safe mode, but that too, obviously failed.

I live in India but for the better part of the last three years, I've been a student at a university here in Japan. My graduation is next week, and I'm scheduled to go back to India and work in mid-April. As a result, I've got a lot of items to sell, and to give up the house I lived in and complete the procedures that one usually does when exiting the country (bank accounts, insurance etc.). However, since I have a sim card here in Japan, a lot of the mentioned items are linked to it, making it difficult now that I can't use it.

I've so far wiped all data and cache on my phone, and it still won't boot properly. I'm really scared but holding it together. If any of you have any idea what to do with regards to this, please comment.

I have the exact issue like him, tried to flash stock firmware , but doesnt want to install it.

Tried to flash only PIT file, no luck.

It happened exactly like he described, during an over the night charge, then stuck in the model name screen. Not even Samrt Switch doesnt reconise it
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] soyuz4u:
Safe mode

Have you tried booting into safe mode?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] pklabs:
+1, just woke up after overnight charge and stuck in bootloop,

-> unable to power off by pressing power key + volume down, had to open back glass to disconnect battery to turn it off, glass was already little cracked, so didn't mind opening it up.

-> when i try recovery mode key combo, it stays in model name screen for a brief period and then goes into the beginning of "installing update" recovery screen but after that restarts again to "samsung note 8" model name screen.

-> tried using odin 13.3 with firmware from sammobile, used the latest one available date 2021-8-2, odin resulted in pass But after restart in installing firmware step, it stopped at 24% with an error yellow exclamation and then restarts and runs into install firmware loop.

Anyone have solved this without loosing data?

[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip Questions & Answers] RDilus:
As a Z Flip owner i try to be carefull with my screen but it already have micro scatches.

Now i saw a video with some one in the US having an official applied screen protector from samsung.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nRuB55Oo4ic&t

I contacted customer service here in the netherlands and they gave me some stupid answer..."There are no screen protectors for the Z flip, because the Z flip have already an protection layer"

So i wonder how is the rest of Europe deal with this and why don't we have it here yet and is it even planned to release here?

Samsung Hong Kong offers free first time screen protector for Z Flip, after that will be around 15Euros to replace
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip Questions & Answers] AlfaFlip:
i used to put a screen protector on my flip...

the quality of zflip screen protectors on the market is bad since only some small manufacturers will make it(because installing a screen protector isn't "allowed" by Samsung")... So I recommend not using one, and if you installed a screen protector there is a chance to damage the screen layer when peeling it off.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip Questions & Answers] 3Shirts:
I'm in the UK and just made use of the free official Samsung screen protector service. I just went to a Samsung Service Centre in London and left the phone with them for an hour. They applied the proper Samsung one for me, at no cost. Apparently they use some UV technique to apply it but whatever they did it was excellent. You can barely tell there is even one on there, the only clue is the cut out around the camera.

You can only get it done for free once but if you need it re-done it's only like £20.
[Huawei Watch] MnM_:
Hey i got my watch a week ago, and i though this would go away, but when i don't use gps for a day or two i constantly get this msg when i try to use it. I updated the watch to the latest firmware via Huawei Health app, so i don't get it whats the problem. Also GPS is highly inaccurate. Tried to reset the watch from settings, didn't help the only thing i didn't do is factory reset from huawei health app.
[Huawei Watch] Tamos42:
Hi, i had a GPS issue as well yesterday. I tried to use it for my running session but the GPS never worked, no signal found, the button stayed grey and never turned green as usual. I'll try again tonight
[Huawei Watch] MnM_:
Hey, thanks for your reply. I had it every day when i turned it on. apox every time when I start, first of the day outdoor workout, i get the same message. And when i check the route in huawei health GPS is inaccurate in a way that it looks like a kid was drawing the path from start till end line, not a straight line but like a zig zag which is not the way i was going. I got an official email from huawei to change huawei ID (i dont know what it is, dont own a huawei phone, just watch) reinstall the app and choose my country as region, did all that but no luck, still getting same error and still not accurate.

I did however check the official goole play version and it is 10.0.2.333 while when i google download huawei health app the latest version i can download is 10.0.3.511. Idk if it makes any difference but i might try with that version.
[Huawei Watch] kaltsjo:
I have exactly the same problem with my GT2. GPS worked perfectly for a month after I bought it but yesterday all of a sudden it doesn't seem to be able to pick up satellite signal. Once there was a pop-up message something about "satellite info not up to date" or similar, but the message disappeared so fast I didn't have time to read it and it hasn't appeared since.
[Huawei Watch] bokyfly:
i had that problem and it fixed itself.

Try to reset the watch
[Huawei Watch] easyroot:
I have the Magic Watch 2, virtually the same watch, does exactly the same.

After an update, it is fine once, then the same message. Wouldn't even locate at all today. It's a nice watch but useless working as it does. I even have a new version of Huawei health installed, not the Play version. It didn't work with the play version anyway. I envisage there will be lots of folk with this issue. Huawei suggestions do not seem to work.

A reset seems to cure it once then the message comes back.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] jannamain1:
It's an unlocked Galaxy S10 AT&T G973U..

I am using it internationally and not with an AT&T sim, so I don't try to upgrade it OTA anymore..

I tried Smart Switch, it says it's up to date. But last security patch was April 2019 and it's running Android 9.

Build and Baseband: G973USQU1ASD7 (According to SamMobile) there's no Android 10 for this baseband.

But my question is, can I flash let's say USA (Android 10) G973USQU3CTB1 or would I need to wait for the baseband for my model?

If I missed something, feel free to correct me.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] StoneyJSG:
Having a "U" model means Universal. You can flash any U.S. carrier stock firmware to it. If you have AT&T firmware and want to use T-mobile firmware instead, you can do it by flashing it with Odin.

You can get most firmwares off Sam mobile (Verizon, Sprint, T-mobile). AT&T firmware is hard to come by and you will usually have to pay to get it from a pay site like www.gsm2file.com

Just download an Android 10 firmware and flash it. No matter what it is as long as it's for the U model line.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] jannamain1:
Ok, thank you very much.

And is "USA" only unbranded? I don't want any bloatware since I am international and I don't benefit from anything they offer.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] StoneyJSG:
The G973U phone will only accept U.S. firmware (Verizon, Sprint, At&t, T-mobile, Spectrum, Xfinity, and unlocked U1 Samsung firmware). So if you flash the U1 unbranded firmware you will get rid of carrier bloatware.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] jannamain1:
Say I wanna get rid of the bloatware, what firmware do I select from the U1 variants? Because I see all of them have carrier names.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] StoneyJSG:
If you get it from sam mobile it's XAA from Unknown. The latest is the CTB5 bootloader. I think there's also a thread in the forums here that contains Odin firmware.

When uninstalling edxposed, you also stop installed xposed modules to work, so the problem does not seem to be related to edxposed or any xposed module.
