Hi [MENTION=8754258]NullCode[/MENTION]!

I've googled for the recovery process because I would use custom ROM on my SM-T590, so I want to make sure it can be restored if something goes wrong, and found your thread.

For me, in the downloaded official Samsung ROM there is a BL_T590(...) file which you can open with WinRAR (of course, download the FW for your model, for example with Frija). Then it will give you files like aboot.mbn.lz4 (I think this one is the Android bootloader), apdp.mbn.lz4, cmnlib.mbn.lz4, etc. You can decompress these files with LZ4 command line tool, and then you may be able to reflash them in EDL mode.

Edit: On some forums I found that they didn't decompress LZ4 files, so I have no idea which way could work.

Also there are some solutions to generate rawprogram.xml files for flashing, but I'm not sure if it's allowed to link them here.

Good luck, and let me know if this worked! :)

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] NullCode:
Hello! Well I would like to thank you for trying to help, but flashing with EDL mode isnt a possibility. Because even if i have the full ODIN firmware [which I do] I would need the official signed Samsung Firehose loader with the Sahara protocol. If that was a bit too complicated [no offence], basically I need to hack into Samsung's servers OR persuade a Samsung repair employee to give me the loader to flash my tab with. Alas, since this isnt a possibility, I am planning to send this tablet to its homeland [America] and get it JTAG flashed, because that is the only thing that can be done for this
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] UDPSendToFailed:
Are you sure about that? I mean, isn't the EDL interface universal among Qualcomm SOCs? I think it is, there are lots of tools for flashing, also I haven't seen anything about Samsung locks this option, the only manufacturer that blocks 3rd party flashers is Xiaomi as far I know, but there is a modded flasher software for Xiaomi too. As I can see, there are threads about Galaxy S8 being reflashed and is working fine, so in theory Samsung doesn't lock bootloaders.

Also there is a file for MSM8996 for Galaxy Note 8 which is Snapdragon 820 in your tablet. It's in the G930XU5 folder.

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=77904842&postcount=2
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] NullCode:
No no Samsung doesn't block EDL mode at all (in fact, my tablet ONLY goes to EDL mode now), the problem is the flash loader, which is specific to each device. Xiaomi used to generously provide Fastboot ROMs which used the loader we are talking about and EDL mode to flash things, but they don't do that anymore.

Also, I tried the G930XU5 thing the day I wrote this thread, and it was stuck at 50% and didn't do anything else (I think this happened because the loaders are also flash chip dependant and the one in the Note 8 thread is UFS while the Tab S3 uses eMMC). Oh another thing, could you tell me the names of flashers that use EDL mode? I've only heard of QFIL and MiFlash
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] UDPSendToFailed:
Final update: Well, someone from a mobile service explained me how it works, basically without a firehose file which is signed by Samsung specifically for the device, we can't do anything. I hope the files will be available for the public, because this way Samsung just forces their users to pay for a "repair" which could be done at home using the official Qualcomm solutions.

QPST - Official Qualcomm flasher

emmcdl - I think this one can do the flashing with multiple files since it has options like sector address, etc, also you can find a fota.zip (password for fota.zip is fotatest1234) inside the official Samsung ROM which has some partition table informations

Z3X Samsung Tool PRO - Looks like it can do many things, but doesn't start up for me, says "Card not found"

blankflash - This one is for Motorola devices, but who knows

sahara - You can find it on GitHub, there is an example .xml file too

And possibly many others which I haven't found yet.

Update: I found an app called PIT Magic, it can show partition table info and memory addresses after unpacking CSC and selecting the .pit file. Maybe that can be useful when used together with emmcdl, like flashing SBL back with emmcdl -p ttyUSB0 -b SBL1 C:\path_to_sbl1.mbn or with using these adresses in .xml files.

Update #2: There are some firehose files on "OneLabsTools" GitHub page for MSM8996 too.

You could try flashing twrp . It dont take more than 5 second. You only have to be prepare to enter to recovery mode because your device reboot automaticly
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] NullCode:
yeah I did say that a while before but I'm glad you understood. Without this "programmer" there is nothing we can do.

there's also a high likelihood that Samsung won't provide the firehose files because every company just wants money nowadays
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers] NullCode:
um [not to sound too full of myself] since I'm the kind of guy who compiles custom recoveries like TWRP for himself, of course this idea went through my mind. But you see the problem is, my BOOTLOADER [not to be confused with BOOT.img], the CORE part that starts up Android and anything else, is damaged. And since we can't get the programmer/firehose to "emergency flash" this tab, the only option is to open the Tab up, connect the tab's motherboard to a JTAG box like easyJTAG or Octoplus, and force flash it that way [and since that method costs a lot of money ive started saving up]

Hello,

Does anyone know how to solve my problem showed in the attached photo?

Just after an official update...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arav12vind:
It all started when I used my redmi 5a till it shutdown that night . I charged my phone in the morning and turned it on but after some 10mins of usage it's screen went black and i had to turn it back on again(no error messages). it kept happening again and again, so I decided to flash a new rom. at that time i had TWPR 3.2.1, pixys os android 10, inferno kernel. I went to twrp and connected it to pc, i tried coping ancient os rom to sd but couldn't. pc said it was copied but it was not there on my phone even after rebooting to recovery. I noticed that internal storage was 0mb .So, I finally decided on flashing stock firmware and it worked. Then I flashed twrp 3.4.0 but twrp displayed only red and blue lines on black background. Then I flashed twrp 3.2.1 ,same problem. Then i used some toolkit and it flashed twrp 3.1.1. Then too internal storage was 0mb and couldn't connect to my pc, adb and mtp (tried disabling and enabling).So i copied ancient rom on another sd card and put it in my mobile and tried flashing it. it showed that the rom is for riva and my device is "" (emptystring).

so I removed the assert in update-script and flashed it, it booted into the rom but media storage app kept stopping . I flashed inferno kernel (ten) from twrp. the moment i pressed the button flash it the screen went to that lines in dark screen saver mode...

Then again I flashed the stock firmware.

My phone boooted and the just a moment screen that comes when we boot for the first time came and then my phone restarted in a few seconds. it kept happening.

Then i tried fastboot erase userdata, all was ok. But when i tried fastboot -w i got this error

$ fastboot -w

You can acess the phone via fastboot. Hence in order to get phone working again simply flash phone's Stock ROM.

[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] chrisaw:
I've updated to 10.5.10 and it looks like there's some very nice updates - particularly working Widevine L1 on an unlocked bootloader - very nice indeed!

The problem is OnePlus have tinkered with Photochrom in this update and it can no longer be used as an Infrared camera directly - it now adds additional information to the main camera.

Some may like this trade-off but personally I think it kinda sucks. It's not broken, I just preferred the old functionality. With that in mind - does anyone have any ideas how we can revert this?

So far I've checked:

- Removing the newer APK and manually reinstalling the older one.

- Confirming that the OnePlus Camera Service version hadn't changed - it hasn't.

- Installing the Google Camera APK via xXx and seeing if that can access the camera (looks like it just crashes out when I try.)

My thoughts:

- Perhaps a kernel change but that sounds unlikely

- Probably a vendor change in which case reverting the libs should suffice.

If I can figure out what's needed to revert this change I'll throw together a Magisk module.

[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] chrisaw:
Right, I did get to the bottom of this - looks like a bug with the app. Basically I switched to the selfie cam and then switched back and Photochrom reappeared - woo!

This APK has made zero difference to the functionality of it being changed in 10.5.10 - it no longer shows pure infrared like it did previously.

I released a magisk module to revert any changes made to the Photochrom camera, tested on IN2025 OOS 10.5.10. It doesn't work on 10.5.11 yet since they made more changes, but I'm working on that. Not tested on Indian or European models. https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-8-pro/how-to/guide-photochrom-filter-enabler-t4112519
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] chrisaw:
Thanks - I did see your module but there's a problem - I'm basically running 10.5.11 because:

Outside EU the latest version is 10.5.11

Inside EU the latest version is 10.5.10

These are equal versions in terms of the camera functionality so basically any EU user running 10.5.10 is ACTUALLY running the equivalent of 10.5.11 outside of Europe.

In other words - if your module doesn't work for Non-EU 10.5.11 - it wont work for EU 10.5.10 either.

OnePlus are REALLY confusing things with these silly version numbers!!
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Deleted member 2398568:
OnePlus has done it yet again... if I have some time this week I'll look into creating a EU specific 10.5.10 version... no promises. Sorry for the confusion. :(
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Cattell:
I tried to replace the OnePlusCamera.apk to the older version, doesn't work.

I tried to replace these following files from vendor to the older version

/vendor/lib/camera/*
/vendor/lib/hw/camera.qcom.so
/vendor/lib64/camera/*
/vendor/lib64/hw/camera.qcom.so

but still, doesn't work.

And I can also confirm, the "fake device model" method doesn't work either.

(for IN2020 Chinese model, it fake the device model to other region, so it won't block the photochrom filter, work at EU.10.5.9/INT.10.5.10 for IN2020)

Maybe someone can check the file diff, on those two zip upgrade file, and see what's changed

hope to see fix soon, this new photochrom is like 10% of what it used to be.

BTW, the whole privacy concern is just nonsense, IT CAN'T SEE THROUGH CLOUTHES

Otherwise, you'll be naked every time you see a security cam, coz those things got IR too.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bluebloomer:
Hi all,. for a friend I am trying to root a G398FN (PHN) with Magisk and a patched boot file. I went thru the unlocking process at the bootloader, I took the latest android Q firmware and with 7Zip Zs I unzipped the AP file, and then I got the boot.img.

Magisk says it is patched, then I use ADB to GET the file back on my PC, and then I flash it with Odin.

I have tried all sorts of combinations, flashing the patched boot alone, flashing the enitre AP file, flashing the patched AP file alone, and the complete firmware, but in any case I end up with a phone that should have a patched boot, but doesn't. Magisk is not a stub, and Magisk asks for the original rooting method.

Does anybody know what I am doing wrong here ? The patched boot is downloaded via ADB, then flashed with the latest Odin but the phone is not accepting the changes.

So i Have a Xcover 4s G398FN with android Q latest firmware, latest Odin, unlocked bootloader and I have tried almost every combination there is to make the phone work with the patched boot. What is happening here? Any help would be greatly apreciated.
