so can confirm twrp still works on one ui 3.0 beta

need only to make a new zip with a nulled vbmeta since without R dont boots rooted
[Galaxy EXYNOS S20 S20+ S20 Ultra Development] geiti94:
you can ignore that errors are normal since that partition are read only on boot. when flashing a rom they get then mounted as read write by the updater script

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE CAUSED TO YOUR DEVICE OR FILE LOSS THAT YOU DIDN'T BACK UP. IF YOU POINT THE FINGER AT ME I WILL SIMPLY LAUGH AT YOU, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE.

For people with the OneUI 3.0 beta installed, here is the

nulled vbmeta.img to root the beta. thanks to [MENTION=4658360]corsicanu[/MENTION] for guiding me.

You need to have the beta installed, do an intial boot and set stuff up, then flash twrp to back up the boot.img for your variant. When you flash TWRP, DO NOT BOOT INTO SYSTEM YOU MUST BOOT TO TWRP WITH KEY COMBO, IT TAKES A FEW TRIES.

Once backed up, find the "TWRP" folder in your storage and rename the boot.emmc.win file to boot.img, add the img to a tar and patch the tar with magisk, magisk will store the tar as "magisk_patched.tar" usually in the Downloads folder, transfer this tar to pc and flash in odin with disabled vbmeta.

TURN OFF AUTO REBOOT IN ODIN.

Once you flashed disabled vbmeta and rooted boot.img, disable file encryption and boot to system.

THIS PROCESS WILL CAUSE A FACTORY RESET, BACK UP ALL YOUR DATA, THIS PROCESS WILL ALSO HAVE TO BE REPEATED WITH EVERY BETA UPDATE THAT YOU WISH TO ROOT.

Does this mean i have to factory reset everytime I flashed and updated to a newer beta version?
[Galaxy EXYNOS S20 S20+ S20 Ultra Development] LeeXDA18:
Read the post, it states this.
[Galaxy EXYNOS S20 S20+ S20 Ultra Development] deltafrozt33:
Alright, thanks for clearing it up for me. Also, when or where do i need to factory reset the device during the rooting process?
[Galaxy EXYNOS S20 S20+ S20 Ultra Development] LeeXDA18:
When you do the data format in TWRP for encryption related stuff and it will need a reset regardless due to vbmeta change and root status.
[Galaxy EXYNOS S20 S20+ S20 Ultra Development] 2Faat:
Can't seem to get my device rooted after installing the beta (g985f)

Beta installs fine after updating to btij via odin, flashing the latest twrp afterwards does install twrp successfully and runs (encrypted until i format) but system is not able to boot and eventually just sits at 'entering fastboot'

Could use some more detailed instructions, please.
[Galaxy EXYNOS S20 S20+ S20 Ultra Development] LeeXDA18:
Sounds like you forgot to flash disabled vbmeta?

You must backup beta boot.img with TWRP, and patch that img with Magisk.
[Galaxy EXYNOS S20 S20+ S20 Ultra Development] 2Faat:
I did back up the boot img but i cant get into the system after installing twrp to even install magisk and patch it
[Galaxy EXYNOS S20 S20+ S20 Ultra Development] LeeXDA18:

[General Questions and Answers] jeff3316:
Greetings,

I just picked up a Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.0 (2019) from Costco, and have encountered a problem of not being able to transfer apps to the SD card. My 2017 Samsung Galaxy Tab A allows this option just fine. I have already enabled developer options and selected the option to force apps to SD card. I also go to the app information where I would see how much space it is using and then move eligible apps to SD on my old device. This new new device doesn't have that as an option. 3rd party apps like "App to SD card" do not work even after giving them permissions and selecting the developer option I explained above. One final point should be that I did format the SD card and there was not the option to format SD card as internal storage.....

Has Samsung sneakily removed this functionality from their newer devices? If so, are there any options for me?

Super disappointing. - Only 16 GB of internal memory and it does not allow me to transfer apps to the "included" SD card.

Does anybody have further information or advice?

Thank you so much,

Hi everyone!

Here's the deal! I'm no noob to flashing, cooking and HardSPL as I'm positive there are plenty of users who are swimming in the same pool.

Moving from another device's forum (Trinity) to the Diamond forum is quite a shock. So many posts, so many threads.

There are so many HardSPLs. OK, no problem! But what I DO miss is a tutorial thread with nice and clear descriptions stating for instance "You will need this HardSPL for this ROM", ""You will need this HardSPL for Official ROM", "You don't need any HardSPL for Official ROM", etc.

For instance:

I'm running an old version of Radio and Official Diamond ROM (Stock), 1.00.25.03 Radio and 1.37.479.3 WWE ROM.

Bootloader version is:

DIAM100 64M
SPL-1.37.0000
MicroP-Diam (LED) v11
PSOC-Diam STAGE_PVT v0x30

I'd like to first upgrade to another Official ROM, like RUU_Diamond_hTC_Asia_HK_WWE_1.93.831.1.

No info on following:

- changing an original to another original ROM: is there need for HardSPL?

- changing a supposed EU original to an Asia original ROM: is there need for HardSPL?

- if there is need for it when upgradin ROM, which one to choose based on bootloader info?

- if there is need for it when upgradin Radio, which one to choose based on bootloader info?

etc.

I can live with my new device with stock ROM, I can tweak it, no problem.

But it is my strong belief that a detailed tutorial/description/info/guide thread could get a nice sticky.

Something that would make new users like:

"Oh, I just bought a Diamond, I read this sticky, compared my bootloader info with the ones stated in the thread, checked my ROM and Radio, checked my new ROM and Radio which I want to flash, so I need this/I don't need any HardSPL and it worked"

Yes, call it spoon-feeding, but while looking at the Forums and reading and searching, there's so much clutter some can't even find the Search button!

My two cents!

Yes, but still, is there any need for HardSPL when flashing to another Official HTC ROM? And is there any need for HardSPL when flashing to another issuer of the Official HTC ROM (from EU to Asia HK)?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] andy2111:
You don't need HardSPL to flash an official ROM. If you want to be really sure then simply go to the HTC site (I used HTC Europe), register as a user, input your phone's serial number and it should tell you that you can download the 1.93 ROM. This way you can do a 100% official upgrade before deciding if you want to use a cooked ROM.

I know that, remember, I'm not a n00b.

First, I have no updates in my registered Diamond e-Club account.

Second, this is what I am talking about: You said:

Other peoples opinion:

Contradictory information?

Now since I don't have any updates in my own e-Club, there's the HardSPL option with other (even Official) ROMs.

Question is: which one? (1.23, 1.24, 1.34, Developer edition, Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex, HardSPL_OliNex138_Signed or RUU_Signed_1_93OliNex_HSPL_UnsignedEdition).

This is crazy!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] andy2111:
Maybe that's the difference then - perhaps ROM downloads via the e-club are treated differently, although I can't think how.

Seems that Cmonex and Olipro are the SPL experts here (I'm sure you've already seen this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=400402) so maybe they're the best ones to help.

If it helps I updated to HardSLP 1.4 and ran quite happily on my stock ROM before upgrading to Dutty's ROM. I guess it's down to how adventurous/risky you want to be.

Good luck.

1. look at the next posts, i blew it on this answer..:o

i like my diamond with hardspl and unlocked (using the developers, unsigned hardspl). i advice you to do the same. this covers all, signed, unsigned and official ROMs.

here, an answer from THE expert:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2484533&postcount=143

2. if i convinced you to hardspl then go to the unsigned version:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=400950.

i am using it from the beginning (2 month at least) and i flashed my diamond 4 times without any problem at all.

3.

already there, in almost each ROM thread.

i think all cooks start their thread with the warning (hardspl first!) and a link to the recommended hardspl.

bepe is "all signed" so he never mention which hardspl.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] vrstu:
I know you say if you flash an official (uncooked) ROM to your handset then you don't need SPL however I have a Vodafone branded Diamond which won't allow you to flash a non Vodafone branded ROM so I am ssuming that you still need to use SPL to go to an unbranded ROM even if it is generic HTC.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] KukurikU:

thanks for bringing it to my attention.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] racerx_:
yeah, hard-spl to allow you to flash ROMs from other regions..

technically you shouldn't need it to 'protect' your device since its an official ROM upgrade, but then again you're trying to flash an upgrade that's not from your region so not too sure how that affects your warranty.. i would stick with hard-spl no matter what.

Although you may experience better results with certain ROMs using a certain SPL (this hasn't been clearly shown on the diamond to my knowledge) seems like the SPL is more tied to your hardware (why certain people get screen flicker and fuzzy fonts after flashing.. wrong SPL). so it stands to reason if your hardware doesn't change, you *shouldn't* have to change your SPL just cause you're flashing a new ROM

I have experince now with 3 HTC devices: 1. i had Trinity with wwe rom when i bought it-> try to put it to my language (Finnish ROM) didnt work, used hardspl-> it worked

2. Polaris with wwe 6.0 rom, tried to update to the latest wm6.0 rom which was a rom from Singapore, no succes-> put hardspl in device->it worked

3. In my Diamond i put hardspl right away(after 2 hour use), so that one i didnt test at all, based on my previous experience I didnt even try to flash the official 1.93 rom witout hardspl

So at least my concution is that u must have hardspl even when you want to flash a official rom from another region. Dont offcourse no if that is a fact, just what i have experience

[/QUOTE]So at least my concution is that u must have hardspl even when you want to flash a official rom from another region. Dont offcourse no if that is a fact, just what i have experience[/QUOTE]

From my experience from the diamond, you have to flash hardspl onto your handset before you can use 'other region' roms even when it is 'official'.

I have a HK WWE handset and tried to flash my rom with the first upgrade rom from SEA, and it wouldnt flash. it would say my handset is not from the correct region.

i flashed a hard spl afterwards and it worked.

Hi,

As a total recent Noob (TRN), I spent about 2 working days trying to find out where to start. In particular, the definition of HardSPL, ROM and Radio.

It was very difficult to ramp up to speed. you guys rock, seriously, but your community can thrive if you lower the gate a bit. Think about all the time you'll save in the long run by giving noobs somewhere to start. 'There are no stupid questions, only arrogant responses'. -- I read that somewhere here.

For anyone who enjoys noob-razing, come visit me and I'll stick you in with my horses. Get some payback.

A Where-To-Start sticky would help enormously.

peace.

PS - Eventually I found www.modmydiamond.info and started reading. I nearly cried when my Swiss language-locked Diamond started talking in good auld English.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] KukurikU:
congrats on yr first successfull step (english language on yr swiss locked diamond)! perseverance and good reading skills pay back.:)

welcome to our forum!

from yr post i can understand that you started as an intelligent user/member of this forum (as opposed to noob) by using this forum accordingly with it's rules.

there are stupid questions. if one of the next is called by somebody "arrogant response" then he'll have to adjust or just grow elephant skin (i can name a few that already did):

1. "search, this was already posted". (most used)

2. "read the manual." (almost an insult)

3. "read wiki." (friendly, useful advice)

4. "most of the polls are useless." (no comment necessary)

5. "comparisons between any other ppc and diamond does not belong here, this a diamond only forum." (sadly not enough enforced)

a noob is not somebody with a low count of posts. a noob is somebody with a noobish attitude (total disregard of the forum's rules and it's members, wanting everything now, ready, chewed and put in his mouth).

respect the forum and it's members and you'll get respect and help beyond yr wildest dreams.

yr PS only confirm all from the above.

noob here

Hello all, noob here, just got my diamond via vodafone NL.

The device is sim locked contrary to what the agreement with was. :rolleyes:

The current rom running on it makes this device incredibly slow, my brother has an p3300 which works way faster than my diamond (but does not look so nice).

This made me start looking for a solution. I've been reading this site for three full days and I'm still very confused, everything and it's contrary is written here, how is one supposed to draw a conclusion?

With that said I would like to see a well written tutorial in plain english and that does not assume the reader is a techie.

It should explain:

- How to backup the original ROM and hardSPL

- How to flash a new rom and avoid issues with screen flickering and so on

- How to restore the original ROM and hardSPL in case the device needs to be send back for repair

- Clarify what to do with radio roms

- How to unlock a device to be used with any sim card (ok this already exists, i've seen the sticky)

Thanks
