Nicely done!

One question though...anyone figure out how to put the selected cities in some sort of order, i.e. alphabetical? I will eventually have upwards of 20+ cities in my list and it would be great to know approximately how much finger scrolling I have to look forward to vs. just doing it til the right city appears.
[LG G8X ThinQ Questions & Answers] bh_:
I've had this phone since January and while I run single screen most days, I love to bust out the dual screen for some gaming. this thing is still a gaming machine. mostly used it for running emulators, but I'm interested in Android native games as well that can make use of the Game Pad.

my favorites so far have been:

Dolphin Emulator + LG Game Pad: finally got to revisit a childhood favorite, Ty the Tasmanian Tiger using Dolphin to run the GameCube version and a custom LG Game Pad setup. the snapdragon 855 runs the game almost perfectly with the occasional hiccup.

DraStic emulator + LGG8X Wide Mode App: with some customizing of the DraStic buttons layout, this phone makes for such a cool DS emulator. Pokemon Soul Silver, obviously.

what are your favorites?
[Treble-Enabled Device Guides, News, & Discussion] Spaceminer:
I wanted a way to easily work on GSIs with my phone. These are the fruits of my labor.

Prerequisites:

* Magisk manager > settings > mount namespace mode > global

* Termux

How to dump, edit, and convert your stock OS into a GSI?

​

1. Using Termux run the following commands. This assumes you have root.

su
ls /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name
cd /data/local/tmp

For me system is labeled as system_a, so this is what we're going to use. This name may differ by device so it's always a good idea to check. Next command...

dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system_a of=/data/local/tmp/system.img

2. About 1-2min after running the previous command you'll have a raw system image in your tmp directory. Now we need to mount it like so...

mkdir /mnt/a && chmod 0755 /mnt/a
mount -o loop system.img /mnt/a

3. If everything went smoothly your raw image is now mounted at /mnt/a and visible with a root explorer. Not only that, it's also live! So any changes you make while it's mounted will be permanent. Simply make any edits as you see fit using a root explorer, then unmount the image when you're done like this...

umount /mnt/a

Tip: If you can't unmount due to device or resource busy, back out of /mnt/a or any subfolders with your root explorer. If the files are being accessed then you can't unmount them until you get out.

4. Now that the raw image we dumped into /data/local/tmp has been edited, we need to convert it into a sparse image for flashing. Download arm_img_binaries.zip. Extract the files and copy img2simg to /data/local/tmp and set permissions to 0755. From termux run the following commands...

./img2simg system.img name-of-gsi.img
cp /name-of-gsi.img /sdcard/name-of-gsi.img

You're done! Now just install it like any other GSI using twrp or fastboot.

To clean up everything simply run...

rm -rf /data/local/tmp/*

How to edit a GSI that's already in sparse format?

​

Again we're going to need our arm_img_binaries. This time copy simg2img to /data/local/tmp & chmod 0755 just like before. Copy your GSI to the same location then run...

./simg2img name-of-gsi.img system.img

From there, just follow the guide starting at step #2.

Sources & Tools used:

Termux: Clang, build-essential, git, and python for compiling arm versions of the needed binaries with my Moto G7 Play. **(Supports Android 8, 9, & 10)**

android-simg2img repo - https://github.com/anestisb/android-simg2img.git
[Treble-Enabled Device Guides, News, & Discussion] Spaceminer:
A to AB Port Script -- wip

​

1. Copy both GSIs and tools.tar.gz to the root of your internal storage. Then rename your A only GSI to a.img and your AB GSI to ab.img. I believe a stock dump converted to a sparse image can also be used for this.

2. Download port_gsi.sh.txt and remove .txt from the name. Then place it in /data/local/tmp and set permissions on the file 0755.

3.Run the script and wait. You're moving gigs of data, so it will take several minutes. To do this with Termux, use the following commands.

su
cd /data/local/tmp
./port_gsi.sh

4. Once the script finishes check the root of your sdcard. Your new GSI will be named new_gsi.img. Install it with fastboot or twrp and cross your fingers.

Notes:

* I recommend that you have at least 12gb of storage available for this process. To get a rough estimate of how much space you actually need, add the size of both GSIs together then multiply by 3. For the images I tested, this comes out to around 10.8gb

* This will put selinux into permissive mode for the duration of the script. Selinux is returned to enforcing at the end of the script.

* The script has been optimized for storage space. It's also self cleaning. The script doesn't remove itself though. port_gsi.sh will be left in /data/local/tmp. You need to remove it manually. This was by design so I wouldn't have to keep copying it every time I want to run the script.

* In theory some small edits to the script would allow it to port AB to A, or a stock dump to an A or AB GSI.

* The arm binaries provided should also work for converting oem or vendor images between sparse and raw. Android 8, 9, & 10 are supported.

* If anyone can improve upon my work, please do! I'm grateful for any suggestions or ideas.

Tips and Tricks

Backup partitions to inactive slots...

su
dd if=/dev/block/by-name/oem_a of=/dev/block/by-name/oem_b
dd if=/dev/block/by-name/vendor_a of=/dev/block/by-name/vendor_b
dd if=/dev/block/by-name/system_a of=/dev/block/by-name/system_b
dd if=/dev/block/by-name/boot_a of=/dev/block/by-name/boot_b

How to mount and edit inactive partitions...

su
mkdir /mnt/a && chmod 0755 /mnt/a
mount -o loop /dev/block/by-name/system_b /mnt/a

Navigate to /mnt/a with a root explorer and make any changes you want. The changes will be permanent. To unmount simply back root explorer out of /mnt/a or any subfolders then run...

umount /mnt/a

This works on system, oem, and vendor partitions.

U r an inspiration. Great job! I think I was merely hours from jus walking into oncoming traffic over the frustration this A & B **** has given me for nearly two months. I probably bricked it 15 or more times EVERY SINGLE DAY trying all sorts of things with fastboot and ramdisk combo attacks. Never did better than achieving root shell thru adbd from PC and recovery. I tried every SuperSU zip I could find to try even to jus give magisk root to accomplish and that didn't work either. I have security updates thru Feb '20 and I have a suspicion it plays a part in this. Everything I've read on it when I'd give up for awhile all date six months or more and nothing y'all were doing then we worked much at all. It would but for very temporary....anyhow this is exactly direction we needed to go to fix this very unfriendly to developing trap they call A/B...This phone scrambled my eggs man. Anytime my phone reboots I have an anxiety attack

Great guide, many thanks

Successfully made image of my system.. Located in /dev/block/mapper

Getting an error when trying to mount it though, wonder if you have seen it before?

I've got a Redmi Note 9s with dynamic partitioning

dd if=/dev/block/mapper/system of=systemmiui.img
4838824+0 records in
4838824+0 records out
2477477888 bytes (2.3 G) copied, 23.800180 s, 99 M/s
mkdir /mnt/miui11 && chmod 0755 /mnt/miui11
mount -o loop systemmiui.img /mnt/miui11
mount: '/dev/block/loop9'->'/mnt/miui11': Block device required

I did however manage to unpack and repack on pc.

... That alone has been a saviour with my device only having a closed sourcd twrp clone

[Sony Xperia XZs Questions & Answers] Geezx:
Device: SO-03J (Docomo)

Software: Android 8.0

Build number: 41.3.B.1.197

Status: Not rooted/Bootloader locked

Bootloader unlock allowed: No

Hi, I want to ask if my device here could potentially flash a global rom or any other stock rom variants that could enable me to unlock the bootloader. If can, I want to know which roms are allowed to be bootloader unlocked. I personally dont care if things will be buggy and wont work because as soon as I flash the roms I would quickly flash twrp and flash my chosen custom rom (If I could..and thats one thing again to ask. Can I flash any custom roms posted on XDA to my phone...?). As to why I'm asking this question is that I'm looking to boost my devices performance,latest android version(if possible),prolong battery,resolve heat issues and resolve the terrible wifi signal (keeps disconnecting and poor reception). I hope I've given enough information for this and sorry for the multiple questions asked.:laugh:

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] meorhiro:
I made xda account just to post this. Youtube tells us to update from Play Store but it is already the latest version. Apparently there's several posts that had the solution ,but hard to find. and I'm sure some people are still clueless. This is the workaround that I found, just follow step by step to be safe.

Android Version : 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich

Possible Devices: P7500,P7310,P7300

1. UPDATE all your Google Apps. i.e. Gmails, Google needs to be up to date, including YOUTUBE APP (if you uninstalled it already).

2. Go to Settings -> Applications -> All -> Disable Google Services Framework

3. Go to Google Play services , Clear Data, then Force Stop it.

4. Go to Youtube app, Clear Data.

5. Go back to Home screen and run the Youtube app. You have to wait for quite some time in order for it to set.

6. If it pops up displaying "Youtube is not responding". Just close it. and Run it again. IT MAY TAKE SOME TIME SO BE PATIENT. Repeat until it shows the youtube home screen.

7. You be able to run Youtube now. :good::good:
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Errorman:
It worked, but now there is another problem. It shows error 400 when opening youtube.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] meorhiro:
*SOLVED*

Hello to everyone who stumble upon this thread. All the solution given does not work for a long period of time. However there is another better way to use without hassle.

1. Download Opera / Opera Mini and install from Play Store.

2. type in m.youtube.com on search bar and press enter

3. Then can use.

This is the most viable solution without having to think of the workaround as saves your time. With Opera being quite a lightweight browser. It is just as better as trying to run Youtube App.

Thank you everyone.

New beta now available at http://www.opera.com/products/mobile/download/

However, doesn't work on my WM 6.1 Kaiser running Duttys... how about you?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] kilrah:
Woo! Works perfectly on my WM6 ROM. No more hardware keyboard bug either.

Next thing that I'd really like is to be able to force text size smaller/set page zoom. I prefer small text but more of it than just a few big text lines like you get when doing a Google search... More like how you can do it on Opera Mini.

The SIP seems buggy too, it sems to reset it to the keyboard everytime. If I put opera in the background, set my other SIP again (Diamond Qwerty), switch back to opera, on the next time the SIP opens it will stay on the Doamond a second then switch to the default keyboard again. But it seems it's a bug they list in the known issues, so all is good...

WARNING!!!

For those who haven't been hanging around the Opera forums, this release has a bug that will completely deactivate many notifications (SMS, e-mail, reminders,...) everytime it's launched!

So for those who try it, REMEMBER to review your notification settings after you're done if you don't want to miss alarms!

Posting this as it's not at all a function a browser should be touching, so one wouldn't expect that kind of thing at all.

The D-Pad thing is just how they've wanted it to be apparently. IMO there are many Mini features that should make their way into Mobile. Heck, Mobile should just be Mini without the intermediate server thing and running natively instead of Java. Mini is perfect apart from those 2 points.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] kilrah:
No, that's the whole point of the issue. Apparently it's actually when you exit it that the notifications get cleared, as some people reported receiving them while using Opera.

Well.. it's a Beta... and according to what Opera say they have customized the Diamond version specially for it so some aspects are improved.

I don't think this can be done without simultaneously switching the up/down D-pad keys to zoom as well, as on the Kaiser the scroll wheel is mapped to the up/down keys.
