[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Mysteriouslog6:
As you may know, Android 8 introduced a lot of new features

Including a new feature called "Treble" which is supposed to reduce the time taken to do updates. But how?

Now let me explain a little bit

Every Android version ever made has a folder called Vendor which has all the things needed to be able to let Android communicate to your phone's hardware.

Now after android 8 that same Vendor underwent a few changes.

First being: Now it is a partition in root not a folder in /system

Second: All phones launching with oreo should support treble.

And finally: Now android will always look for /vendor not /system/vendor

So what does this mean for us well this means that because LG and other manufacturers that don't support treble are using a symlink to /system/vendor so we can move /vendor (Copy in this case as if it dosent work I can revert back to normal). But it isn't as simple as that. As of now, I don't know how to make new partitions in the android root. So what other treble porters have done is to make /oem which is mainly empty and free as the vendor and we do have a /oem that is empty and free.

Step three(Doing the hard things)

So I made a flashable zip with only a META-INF and with a shell script to copy and the updater-script to set permissions and make the needed symlink.

Step 3.5 (flashing it)

Does it boot now?

Yes, but with a twist android undo's all my changes and proceeds to boot meaning it is like i did absolutely nothing.

And the old symlink is still there can someone please help me with these problems

In short please help in bringing unofficial treble to the LG V20 on stock oreo or any rom. I will be fine with testing it on my device no problems with that
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] cnjax:
There was a thread on here awhile back about treble and as I recall it was eventually determined that treble wouldn't work on our phones

Well that is really sad
[Other SmartWatches] Madjax2020:
ANYONE have the original firmware, latest firmware, or even a twrp backup I can use. I am unable to use my watch as a standalone anymore after I think flashing the only rom I could find. Before I flashed the rim I could use my watch as the watch OR my cell number. Now I can not do anything without it being hooked up via bluetooth. I have searched google to no end and no luck.

:)Hey all,

I'm working un unbricking a hermes100 and I've been able to get the latese HARDSPL V7 on the device. I can boot the OS and get to desktop and what not but I can not flash a radio or flash ANY rom with a radio included. I've tried flashing from SD and it hangs at 11% everytime when it gets to GSM. Once it hangs I soft reset the device and it goes to bootloader. To get back to OS I have to flash the HardSPL again via SD card. Then I can boot phone again.

I think maybe it's bad blocks in the GSM??? I'm not sure. I've tried all the steps in the wiki regarding "unbricking your hermes" with no luck.

Any help would be great.!

I have had a similar problem with my 8525. Once i upgraded using the hard spl 7 i started having freezing and locking up issues. I then tried to reflash the radio and it got stuck 11% everytime with stock rom as well. My phone was then stuck in boot loader so I used titan_exit boot loader and bam it was back up and running. Phone still has issues doesn't recognize pin. :(
[General Questions and Answers] usernameuser:
This all happened a long time ago, but I have these 2 lexar 128gb micro sd cards that are read only, everything I have thrown at them, windows, mac, android, it says read only, I'm about to throw them out but just wanted one last question about them specific to Android.

The chain of events I believe was, I put them in an ulefone paris (2015) chinese phone, before I rooted, it had some tweaks/malware garbage on the os, I tried to format as internal, it did something I didn't like, or it didn't work, but for whatever reason I took out, now they are unusable, read only. Later I rooted and put in regular android.

Can't format or do anything with them, tried windows, mac, official sd formatter, command line, all the usual tips but they give read only error and won't budge but they infuriatingly mount fine and show a bunch of android junk files (stuff that was on my phone Ig uess) everytime I plug in to my mac, but if I delete they come right back (makes sense because they're read only), I tried putting them back in the phone but since it's been rooted to normal marshmallow (I think I don't use it much), it too gave errors.

There is no adapter switch lock or anything, I plug them in through the usb device that came with them, although I have tried adapters set to unlock, and it didn't work.

Could the phone really have destroyed them both, they were brand new (way too old for any refund), I'm going to throw out but just wanted confirmation the phone wrecked them.
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 8425317:
Try formatting the card with a different fille format like , ex4 or other, then rewert back to stock threw twrp of some windows formatting tool (freeware)

Goodluck

I only have a mac right now, but I'll try format to ext4, didn't try that.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] AZTX:
I have a Pixel 3a, and I updated to Android 11 yesterday (official release) OTA update. My phone is completely stock with Developer mode enabled. I noticed that in the notifications for Messages I do not have the option to break it out into the chat bubble (similar to Facebook Messenger). I verified in the notifications settings that I have All conversations can bubble. I am running Google Messages 6.4.044. Has anyone else run into this yet?

Thank you!
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] Temp1234X:
I have bubbles enabled and I don't see the option to make text msgs turn into bubbles either. Neither does FB Messenger show the option.

On top of that, everytime I click on the search bar of any Google app, a small text bubble appears which says "null". Weird a** bugs

Edit: Installing Messages Beta fixed the issue for me. It enables bubbles.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] AZTX:
Thank you! If the beta is stable, I'll go that route.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] Jules Winnfield:
Hi,

Same issue for me regarding bubbles with message and whatsapp.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] ylapas:
Bubbles are disabled by default (Messages) or only for selected chats (FB Messenger). So you have to enable first by yourself. Everything is working fine here if enabled properly in the settings.
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] Jules Winnfield:
Bubbles are allowed on my p3a, but I don't see them. I've just installed Messages Bêta and same issue [emoji53]

Edit: precisely I have small bubbles at the top of the screen (as notifications used to be previously but different colors) and I'm unable to move them on the screen and to keep them active (like fb messenger)
[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] Jules Winnfield:
For those who have the issue, you're not alone :D

[UPDATE/KEEP ROOT GUIDE] SEP 2020 (RP1A.200720.009) "CORAL" Magisk/Stock Boot Images

**Huge thanks to [MENTION=6097193]murphyjasonc[/MENTION] for sharing the pre-patched boot image, and [MENTION=1607642]sidhaarthm[/MENTION] for testing this method and his detailed notes!**​

PLEASE READ ALL ADDITIONAL NOTES IN THE FIRST 3 POSTS. THIS IS A MAJOR UPDATE TO A NEW VERSION OF ANDROID AND CONSEQUENTLY COMES WITH A MUCH HIGHER RISK OF BOOTLOOPING IF YOU'RE NOT CAREFUL. I PERSONALLY AM WAITING TO UPDATE TO ANDROID R (WAITING ON GRAVITYBOX GOODNESS) SO I WON'T BE ABLE TO HELP AS MUCH - PLEASE BE KIND TO ONE ANOTHER AND HELP EACH OTHER OUT! =)

IMPORTANT!! THESE FILES / THIS THREAD IS FOR PIXEL 4 XL "CORAL" ONLY, NOT PIXEL 4 "FLAME"!!

**IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO PATCH THE STOCK BOOT IMAGE YOURSELF, FROM YOUR OWN DEVICE, USING MAGISK MANAGER. WHILE THERE'S A GOOD CHANCE THE FILE I PROVIDED BELOW WILL BE IDENTICAL (USE A FILE HASH CHECKSUM TOOL IF YOU'RE CURIOUS), THERE IS ALSO A CHANCE THEY MAY HAVE SMALL, BUT SIGNIFICANT, VARIANCES**

[SAFETYNET INFO]: Again, I'm not updating myself yet, so I'm not sure about this. I will update this info as others report back. On Android 10, using the MagiskHide Props Config module (or an alternate module created by Displax, though I prefer Didgeridoohan's module) and choosing option 2 - Force BASIC key attestation would force BASIC HW attestation and allow SafetyNet to pass again. This works perfectly for me, and I even run additional mods including EdXposed. I'm not sure if this works on Android 11, and I won't be able to confirm myself for a while. If anybody tries it, please let me know and I'll update this section. The module and info on using it can be found here: https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/m...just search for it in the Magisk Manager app.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] i5lee8bit:
Issues after updating?

If you end up unable to boot or bootlooping afterwards, you most likely have an old Magisk module that isn't playing nice with the new build. There are 2 main things you can do:

1. Flash the new factory untouched boot image. You will of course lose root, and all modules will be disabled. However, it should at least get you able to boot back up quickly and have a working phone if you're in a bind.

2. I would recommend checking Tulsadiver's thread: https://xdaforums.com/pixel-4-xl/how-to/magisk-modules-disabler-booting-magisk-t3990557

Instead of reverting to stock boot image, fastboot boot (NOT FLASH) Tulsadiver's boot image. This will boot your phone in Magisk Core-Only Mode, with all modules disabled but root retained. From here you can open Magisk Manager and disable suspect modules. Before rebooting, go to Magisk Manager's settings and disable Magisk Core-Only Mode. Once you disable the incompatible module, the phone should boot back up.

- See this post (or thread) for more tips / context / an example: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=82509691&postcount=16

* Looks like Tulsadiver uploaded a boot image for A11, although it hasn't been tested yet: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=83462451&postcount=150

Coming from an earlier build than August 2020?

Download the September 2020 Full Factory Image .zip file and extract it. BEFORE RUNNING THE FLASH-ALL BATCH / SHELL FILE, EDIT THE FILE AND REMOVE THE "-w" FLAG FROM THE LAST FASTBOOT LINE. If you fail to remove -w, your phone will be wiped when it reaches this step. After flashing the full factory image, your phone will automatically reboot into O/S. From here, reboot back into bootloader, and flash the new Magisk patched boot image.

Since this is a major jump to a new version of Android, I don't want to recommend this yet until someone tests it. If anybody tries this way successfully, please let me know so we can update this part. Thanks!
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Morgrain:
I just updated from Android 10 August (I use your method since, what, April now?) and everything worked without a problem. For security purposes I deactivated Edxposed beforehand, though. The first booting takes a while after the updating, maybe 3-4 minutes, don't be afraid to wait. I was. Lol.

Edit: Jea, Android4Viper is broken. Needs fix asap :(
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] kurdes:
Also a big thanks from me, all went well! A little reminder for people running lawnchair & quickswitch: disable both and set stock recent provider to pixel launcher! Both are not compatible yet... Almost had to factory reset because of this ?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] knopie:
An other big thanks from me, I used your guide again and everything is working.

I used Magisk from the Canary channel and installed MagiskHide Props Config.

Safetynet : Basicintegrity V, ctsProfile V and evalType BASIC., this is good.

When the Kirisakura Kernel is available I will install this kernel for Android 11.

when you install latest Magisk Manager Canary build, is this supposed to overwrite the current stable build or ad an additional separate magisk app?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] xxxtncxxx:
has anyone installed riru and edxposed (if so what version you using) after root from a fresh update (Full wipe update, root, then install modules) any issues?

***EDIT (for dummies like me)*** can confirm works via fresh install too

-Just download / install riru core 21.3 via magisk.

-Download latest edXposed manager v4.5.7.

-Download v0.5.0.6 4561 from canary tab in edXposed manager.

-Flash that zip in magisk.

-Just make sure you don't flash and exposed directly from the download module list in magisk those are not the canary builds. You have to flash the zip from internal storage you just downloaded.

So I went with the fresh install and now the patches boot img returns a "partition not found" error.

I've tried powershell, cmd and same error. Does anyone have another command that could get me up and running? I re-root several times a year and never have this kind of problem.

Just to check that I'm using the correct command. - Fastboot flash boot patched boot img-

Would the patches image name make a difference?

Ok, the first time I did this, it didn't change anything(after I finished I was still on Android 10, with the August update), so I may have did something wrong, I'm not sure. Anyway, I did it a second time, and voila, it works. Your guides are always the best bro!

[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] sidhaarthm:
Google Pay works - I utilised the GPay SQlite fix method (look it up, plenty of threads on it) but I actually had that before I upgraded to R11. Once I successfully upgraded using the steps provided in this thread, I didn't have to do a thing and GPay still works :o

As for banking apps, depends where you are. I'm in the UK and with Magisk Hide and some trickery, I've manged to get Monzo, Starling, Amex, HSBC and Tesco Banking apps to work on my Pixel 4 XL. The only ones I seem to struggle with (that have strong root detection) are Barclaycard and Lloyds Banking Group apps such as Halifax, MBNA etc.

Hope that helps :good:

[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] DarkusRattus:
Has anyone had SafetyNet randomly stop passing for both basicIntegrity and ctsProfile together? When I first upgraded to 11 and set everything up, I was able to pass even with EdXposed installed, then it stopped passing with EdXposed a few days later, but would pass both with it disabled. Now it won't pass at all even with EdXposed disabled.

Anyone have any ideas before I resort to wiping and starting over?

Same problem. Did you figure it out?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Homeboy76:
Just Curious

Did you try Flashing the patched boot.img in the OP?

Why?

It could rule out problem with your patched boot.img.

If the patched image in the OP works, that would indicate your patched boot.img is corrupt.

I have a Boost 205U. I managed to flash an ATT rom using the patched ODIN. But I need to flash the Boost rom again so that I can request a sim unlock. The flash goes successfully (BL, AP, CSC, Home) but I still see it sticks to ATT (shows the ATT logo, csc is att). I verified that the rom I'm flashing is a BST

What could be causing this issue?
[Samsung Galaxy A20 Questions & Answers] physwizz:
3. Flash each part of the firmware into its slot.

BL_20xxxxxxx.tar.md5 goes into the BL slot

CSC_xxxxxx.tar.md5 goes into the CSC slot

[Samsung Galaxy A20 Questions & Answers] uhsarp:
I found the solution.

Make sure to use the right SIM before flashing. It picks up the carrier info from the SIM.

If you need it to show BST, flash an non-carrier (that comes with unlocked phones) ROM, type in *#272*IMEI, select the carrier you want to change to and voila!

Hi Folks,

Apologies if incorrect forum.

I'm looking to buy a Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ / N9750 (Snapdragon variant) in the Aura Blue colour, new or pristine condition.

Tried numerous sites (Ebay, Tobydeals, AliExpress, practically any half reputable looking store on Google search, all the eglobalcentral's, in all languages!), contacting sales teams at each etc but to no joy... :(

Don't really need 5G, live in the middle of the sticks (UK/Ireland).

Don't really want any other colour, seen the Aura Blue and it just looks gorgeous. :p

Don't want the UK model, as someone eloquently described "its like buying a Lamborghini and opening the engine bay only to find a large cow pat inside"

(SamDung lol)

Anyone any advice?

Any help is appreciated!

Regards,

Since this phone lives or should live 100% of its life in a case I would be more concerned about getting the 512 gb 12 gb ram variant than color.

This phone needs a good case; the bevel is nonexistent, it's heavy and loves to land on its corners when not face planting. You can get Bolt cases in a variety of colors and they work great with the 10+
