I currently own a Pixel 3a and it's on the latest Android 10 security update, I would like to install a custom rom onto it but since TWRP doesn't support Q I'm wondering if I flashed the 3a with a Pie image and then installed TWRP, would I then be able to use Android 10 custom roms.

Also if anyone could recommend any roms that offer similar features without the massive System size (live captioning, google camera, hold power for gpay) that would be great! :)

Hi All,

I'm looking for your advice guys.

I need full android smartwatch. What I need it for is my CGM continues glucose monitoring system. I went trough tones of crappy sites advertising this or other brand, but to be honest all of them are no good for me.

My requirements:

Bluetooth connectivity for CGM, battery life and waterproof so I could go for a swim.

I don't care if:

It's samsung , lg or any other brand

if it's stylish or not

square or round

Does it have Heart monitor or not

Does it have NFC or no NFC

nor any camera

I don't need any workout apps, I can do my workout without it just fine, I don't need any notifications or any other useless futures which I will not have a time or will to look at anyway.

What I'm looking for is pure functionality.

Have anyone of you come across such a device?

Thanks in advance

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] gavin watson:
Hi all,

I've been trying for hours to root my Samsung Galaxy Tab A (SM-T510) and am completely stuck...

I have managed to unlock the bootloader, enabled developer mode, that is fine but when moving to Odin I'm getting stuck, have read all kinds of guides and can't get past the next stage.

I'm actually unclear as the the correct steps, my only reason for rooting is because I need to issue this command so that I can have the device boot automatically when the charger is connected:

fastboot oem off-mode-charge 0

Do I first use Odin to load twrp and then I install the ROM? I'm not sure of that part.

One other thing I'm noticing is that when I try and and use Odin to flash twrg is that on the tablet in red it says 'Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed', is this relevant and how to resolve?

One thing I have successfully done is to flash back the stock ROM from Sammobile (via Odin) and that worked fine.

Would really appreciate some help on this. I do not have a preference on which ROM to load, I just need to be able to run the above command.

Thanks in advance!

There are a lot of great video tutorials on YouTube. Just search for Odin flashing tutorials and watch a recent one.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] lewmur:

:(RTFM!!! There was a post just yesterday in the discussion forum on how to unlock the bootloader and that has to be done FIRST. Until recently, the only Samsung tablet with locked bootloaders were those tied to a "carrier". That is no longer true. In oder to flash ANYTHING other than a stock ROM, you must first UNLOCK THE BOOTLOADER!!!!!!! And you DON"t do it with ADB or fastboot.

[Razer Phone 2 Questions & Answers] scyyie:
Hello all! Im scyyie and ive been a long time lurker on XDA for maybe 5 years or so.

Its been a while since ive rooted an android but im having some trouble in the process once i use cmd to flash the patched .img file. Let me explain and hopefully someone can eli5 lol.

information on my situation:

Razer Phone 2

android ver 9

kernel ver 4.9.112

build P-MR2-RC001-RZR-190914.3123

security update is Sept 25th 2019 i believe.

debugging is enabled.

OEM is unlocked.

I followed the user guide on xda to where I successfully unlocked bootloader, used magisk to patch an .img file matching my exact build (listed above). seems all good right? just flash the patched file i think? Well, my issue is when i turn off my phone, then hold volume down + power, i come to the bootloader/fastboot menu (i think its called?). I start adb shell with CMD prompt, with my patched .img in the same directory, and type "fastboot flash boot_a patched.img" but it hangs there and gives me this: Sending 'boot_a' (20780 KB) FAILED (Write to device failed (Unknown error)) fastboot: error: Command failed

When my phone is on, i used adb shell to use the command "adb devices" and my phone is listed with its serial. The issue (i think?) is when i put my phone into fastboot, adb doesnt detect it. I have installed the appropriate drivers i believe?

Yes i have searched for other guides on this issue but it seems none of these solutions will help. I have also tried installing samsung drivers as well. Im not tech illiterate but hopefully the issue isnt too much of a mystery to the knowledgeable people here. :D

Thank you all for reading and I hope something can happen here.
[Razer Phone 2 Questions & Answers] scyyie:

after more research it seems AMD cpus dont agree with this process involving ADB along with usb 3.0 causing an issue as well. I used a usb 2.0 on an intel laptop and the process worked as normal.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddyys:
I have got a person who is trying to open its Samsung Galaxy s6 screen to save images and other data. It seems the phone is kinda a locked.

It's an old phone with a broken charging port and the only way to charge is via wireless. So it happened when a person took out the card and turned off the phone. Now when you turn the phone back and try to unlock with a password it won't allow, meaning the log just disappears and you have to type your password again, and it's like in a loop.

Question is how to open a phone so a person can save all data?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 1890170:
[MENTION=4243841]eddyys[/MENTION]

The door to any Android device is ADB ( read: Android Debug Bridge ). If USB-debugging got enabled on phone in question then there is the chance to retrieve data stored on it. HOW-TO here.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddyys:
Basically, there are two options.

1. Retrieve data via cable (in this case USB port is broken)

2. If it's rooted and via wireless?

[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Wattsensi:
1. No, it doesn't. I tried switching between several "Open"Kirin ROMs and GSIs using a TWRP flash+factory reset workflow, it works well.

2. This entire forum is either sparse solutions spread in deep crevices or hacks from juggling files and editing words in text...surely the guides are so unique, reformatting /data after removing its forceencrypt attribute in /etc/fstab is so unique and special! I'm not trying to throw down zgfg's effort but again, that guide was confusing and required juggling three TWRP copies. I'm just trying to make anyone unfortunate enough to still need to have one of these devices to be able to lessen the pain in the behind that is working with ancient unmaintained Treble implementations, buggy sdcardfs drivers, obscure camera interfaces, broken audio routing and drivers, and secretive ROM cooks who won't share their secret fixes restricting the universe of good ROMs to their own proprietary ROMs that don't get updated, or get updated once every 6 months. Sadly I don't have the time or resources to set a build farm or cook my own ROMs (you probably already know, hundreds of GBs downloaded and 6GB+ of RAM used) Please don't be like this, I like your work.

With TWRP, mount /vendor. Then, use TWRP's ADB shell capabilities. Open a command prompt in your computer, and type 'adb shell' and enter. Then, navigate to /vendor/etc/, with the command 'cd /vendor/etc'. Then using vi or nano, edit the fstab.hi3650 file.

Look for the entry that starts with /data. Replace in the same line, 'forceencrypt' with 'encryptable'. Then save, wipe /data and reboot. Remember to investigate thoroughly for consequences and side effects on everything you do.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] zgfg:
Btw, developing discussion and instructions from early 2019 about decrypting Data and Internal memory on P9 Oreo - decryption can be done also by use of TWRP instead of manually editing fstab:

https://xdaforums.com/p9/how-to/emui-8-decryption-guide-wipe-t3906245

And a revised summary:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=80029346&postcount=1843

They were not necessarily targeting GSI but (at that time) OpenKirin ROMs.

Also, doesn't matter if for EVA AL10, DL00, etc.

Also for stock EMUI 8, but to be able to fully use TWRP (nandroid backup, wiping Dalwik - it's on Data partition, installing zip or img files from Internal memory instead from SD card)

Btw, instead of Terminal and Vi editor (for most of nowadays users their parents were not born yet in the era of pre-WYSIWYG editors, and I doubt if 0.1% would be familiar to navigate with Vi to a particular line and to delete/replace or insert something), one can simply use standard tools like MiXPlorer (root explorer) with its integrated text editor.

In MiXPlorer choose Root, grant the root access, visually navigate to /vendor/etc, click on fstab.hi3650 file, open as Text and edit without frustrations like with Vi editor ?
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Wattsensi:
Thanks for that, I revised and simplified the guide as much as possible.

Can I use this method to decrypt P9 installed EMUI8?
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] zgfg:
[MENTION=808575]ant0nwax[/MENTION] and me did use decrypted storage with b540, see the post #6 above:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=83386207&postcount=6

Specially, look at the second post linked there (post was in HWOTA7 thread):

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=80029346&postcount=1843

There was one catch there (was written for b540):

If I recall correctly after the long time ,(year and a half) - when you format Data you have to restore your b550 part that was installed to Data.

You must not use eRecovery bcs it would encrypt Data again.

Hence you must flash b550 by TWRP and there was a problem with that all_cn zip at that time, reporting me an error (cannot find now TWRP logs from that time to see what was the problem)

I discussed then with [MENTION=6870018]Tecalote[/MENTION] and he corrected me the script from the original update all_cn zip for b540 that TWRP was able to flash

As a result, we had EMUI 8, b540 with decrypted storage, giving to TWRP the full access to Data and Internal memory

It was also possible to go back to EMUI 8 with encrypted storage, basically by putting back stock Recovery, by installing latest firmware from eRecovery and by performing Factory reset with Wiping the cache
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nightwish1976:
[MENTION=9152969]Wattsensi[/MENTION]: unfortunately, It doesn't work like this in my case. After switching to Chinese EMUI 8, I install Play Store, login to my Google Account and do Play Store things.

After modifying that file in Vendor, I go to recovery, wipe internal storage, wipe Data and restart.

At this moment, it's like after a factory reset, I have to start all over again, but I'm not encrypted.

Well, no matter what I do, I can't login to Google. I open Play Store, it tries to log me in ( the big circles started to spin), at that moment Play Store closes. I go to Accounts and try to login to my Google account from there, same thing. So, for me, Emui 8 is usable only before decryption.

I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong.
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Wattsensi:
This is indeed strange, and I do not recall the Chinese ROMs having Google services by default, you had to install GApps if I'm not wrong. Try flashing pico OpenGapps for 8.0 ARM64, wiping cache and doing a factory reset again. Sometimes GApps have issues when you don't flush the cache between fresh installs.

https://opengapps.org/
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] zgfg:
Be careful. Chinese EMUI 8 does come with Google Play Services (OP posts in HWOTA7 thread) and one only needs to install Google Play app.

Google Play Services were also preinstalled for users who recently updated to b550.

Btw, you didn't write are you on Al10c00b550 or what, but you also wrote that you had Playstore working on EMUI 8 before decrypting and formatting Data

Anyway, before installing MicroG, Open GApps or something, inspect do you still have or not Google Play Services installed.

There are apps like Play Services Info to inspect if Google Play Services, Google Services Framework and Google Play Store are installed (and what are their versions).

E.g, use this app from ApkMirror (since you cannot look for them and install from Playstore):

https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/weberdo/play-services-info/

(Not sure would it work installing Open GApps if stock Google Play Services are still beneath)
[Huawei P9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nightwish1976:
Thank you, guys gor your help. Yes, Ch EMUI comes with Google Play Services, one normally has to install only Google Play.

[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] imucarmen:
If anyone knows how to fix this please help. I'm researching it now but I'm making this thread in hopes someone knows what I need to do.

I can boot the device and it gets to the lock screen and I can unlock it but then it keeps turning the screen off and going back to the lock screen. If I don't touch it it will continue to do this in a loop. If I press the power button it will turn the screen off and stay off. If I unlock the former process repeats and I can't do anything. I can restart the phone, or power it off. When I go to fastboot mode I can't find anywhere to factory reset it. I try to enter rescue or recovery mode and it justs boots to a screen with a dead android and says "no command".

I'm assuming I'm going to have to use adb to fix it. I've done this with phones in the past but I know nothing about the P4XL and haven't messed with my phones in a geeky manner in quite a while so my knowledge is rusty.

PS. The android 11 beta ran fine for a few days besides some normal bugs. All in all it worked fine. This problem randomly happened today while I was using soundcloud hooked to my JBL boombox.
