Please do not try this unless you have a G1 from the uk, it may work on devices from europe but i'm not sure so do so at your own risk

Thought i'd make this quick guide as I just got a G1 and have been looking through tonnes of guides and trying to hunt down files, this method is a bit of a mix between some of the older methods of getting root. The only reason I had to do it like this is because I was not able to install any apps via the web browser because they wouldn't download.

0. Start with device powered off

1. Copy DREAIMG.NBH from HappyNewYearUK.zip to sd card

2. Hold camera and power to boot into spl and then then flash the nbh

3. Reboot device after flashing

4. Once booted turn device off, remove sim card and reboot

5. At the no sim screen slide keyboard open and type <enter>setprop persist.service.adb.enable 1<enter>

6. Power off, put simcard back in the device and reboot

7. On pc run "adb shell" then enter "am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.android.settings/.Settings"

8. Once settings has opened connect to wifi then go back to setup and complete setup steps

9. Install androot via adb "adb install androot.apk"

10. Power down device and put signed-kila_uk-ota-116470-prereq.TC5-RC7.7a5a0178.zip on sd card as update.zip

11. Hold home and end call button to boot into recovery

12. Press alt + l then alt + s to install the update

13. Press home+back after flashing and let the device reboot (do not touch it until back on android as it may do multiple flashes after exiting recovery)

14. Power down device and repeat from step 10 to 13 with signed-kila_eu-ota-146733.53218c9e(full update).zip

If you just wanted to get root to be able to install a recovery you can stop here, if you want to get up to the newest stock fw 1.6 follow the rest

15. Power down device and repeat from step 10 to 13 with signed-CRB17-from-TMI-RC9-eu.17667e06(inkrementalni update).zip (may not be necessary i dont remember lmao)

16. Power down device and repeat from step 10 to 13 with signed-kila_eu-CRB43-from-CRB17.1638e1b4.zip

17. Power down device and repeat from step 10 to 13 with signed-kila_eu-CRC1-from-CRB43-FIX2.1c36f92b.zip

18. Power down device and repeat from step 10 to 13 with signed-kila_eu-CRC37-from-CRC1.404fe17f.zip

19. Power down device and repeat from step 10 to 13 with signed-kila_eu-DRC92-from-CRC37.a7b90b4e.zip

20. Once the updates zips have both been installed you can reboot then get root using the Universal androot app

Installing Recovery

1. Copy the flash_image binary from flash_image.zip to sdcard

2. Copy recovery-RA-dream-v1.7.0.img to sdcard as recovery.img

3. From either adb shell or terminal emulator on the device do

su

mount -o remount, rw /system

cat /sdcard/flash_image > /system/bin/flash_image

chmod 777 /system/bin/flash_image

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] ddiverr:
On the EU site HTC have made available 2 versions for a Rom Upgrade.

My version is 1.31.405.09 dated 10/31/07 radio version 1.58.16.27 protocol version 25.61.30.03H (UK user)

Any suggestions if the new versions are more recent, since HTC's site only suggest to check the current Rom installed on the phone, however they do not advice to which version the upgrade is and what actual upgrades will be effected to the phone.

Also any ideas which upgrade should be chosen from the 2 available? and why such upgrades are not available from UK site?

PS.I'm not familiar with loading stuff other than a simple download and basic rom upgrade.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danishk:
Amazon launched the recent fire tv sticks with Fire OS 7 based on Android 9. The hardware specs for the new devices are almost the same as 4K stick.

I was wondering if it would be possible to flash 4K stick with the Fire OS7, considering the similar H/W specs between the two?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bertonumber1:
No I don't think it would be possible, I think it's to do with there being a different bootloader.

There is also different hardware involved that would have to be considered as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Guides, News, & Discu] 2015Ducatimulti:
Guys,

with current orders with Samsung, you might want to chat with Samsung, and try to get Price match, I had seen few of you in the waiting Room talking about price matching, and I have the Note 20 ultra 512gb black one on order, and won`t be delivered until the 19th, I`m doing the trade in for 650.00 for my Note 10 plus 5G, then I was going to cancel my order, then they gave me a offer of 10% off my order if I kept my order and didn`t cancel it, so with the 10% refund will be $86.77, then with the price match it will be another 200.00 off with whatever tax I get from the price match. so I`m looking at about 590.00 total for the Note 20 ultra 512gb black, when its all said and done, they gave me ticket Number and I had chat emailed to me, saying I would get the price match and they told me to make sure I made screen shot of the BestBuy`s showing price date and time on the screen shot. then once its shipped contact them then they will issue a refund for the price match. :D
[Galaxy Tab General] windyt:
I purchased the sm-t397u from ebay, but the seller did not tell me the Tablet is MDM locked. There was no return warning and I am trying to ship it back but so far it's a no go.

The tablet get's to a screen to enter a PIN with a message "this devices is managed by your organization". So obviously MDM is enabled.

I can boot into recovery mode via home+volume up + power but can't do factory reset - MDM prevents that.

Download mode is "disabled as well" - volume down + power only gets me to the Enter PIN screen again. So I was not able to try Odin + combination file

Is there anyway to recovery this or is it a brick? Seems I should be able to put files on microSD and read from recovery and/or possibly ADB (so far the USB connection has not worked, but I had Huawei drivers installed and need to try on a different laptop with clean Windows and Samsung USB only)

Thank you
[Galaxy Tab General] windyt:
OK, no money back but made some progress. I can now boot into the kiosk mode and can get ADB working. But still unable to remove the KNOX MDM enrollment - I can boot, do the setup it will kick in and I end up in kiosk mode.

Factory reset from the recovery mode is now possible, but it did not help.

Need some additional ideas please.

Thank you!

hard luck! A very slow development in terms of Accessories & android too!
[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Questions & Answers] rwperryjr225:
I've purchased 3 times from ali express and ebay . 1st time in August its was supposed to be shipped by 9/5. Ali express auto cancels purchases that arent shipped by 15 days. Seller said delays and will be in stock next 1-2weeks so repurchased but nothing. Canceled that one and purchased on ebay because seller advertising like it was in stock " Only 2 left!" Deliver by 10/15 no mention of pre order items. I messaged seller to be sure but no response and was down to 1 left so pulled trigger and he STILL doesn't have it as of 10/26. Ps4 pro controller and Xbox x controllers work with key mapping software but its almost uncontrollable with it and was using ps4 with panda pro app for key mapping and it was playable but huge headache because u have to use usb debugging program from a computer to activate it every time you use. I have a Flydigi Apex controller that I use now and its the best option by far as a controller with it. If your looking for a Nintendo switch type setup im not sure? I do know all the Flydigi products work with the key mapping software you download from Google play for free and easy to use and alot of customizable features like macros and back buttons, trigger locks blah blah but app doesn't crash and the movement and control with the Flydigi apex is unmatched with all the things I've tried. Has its own debugging tool so games won't even know controller is being used. Wired, Bluetooth, and comes with 2.4hz dongle and phone clip. Find them from 40 to 60 bucks. Cant beat it with a stick because Asus doesn't have a release date yet for the Kunai 3 and with all these delays the first batch for sire will probably be full of bugs and issues. Hope it helps

[ASUS ROG Phone 3 Questions & Answers] jumpycarogna:
Hello, I have a question regarding Kunai 3.

I am using my Kunai 3 in handheld mode (bumper), and mainly playing a third person survival game (Dawn of Zombies). I have successfully mapped buttons as the default buttons didn't suit me.

My issue (not really big) is that when I tilt the stick and then release it, the character will "tilt" toward a different direction. Looks like the stick sensitivity is too high, but I am not sure if that is the culprit. The thing is this issue doesn't occur when I use default mapping.

Is there a way to configure stick sensitivity? Also, when I set directions, how big should the stick tray on screen be? Should it match the game one? By tray I mean the circle around the stick, i.e. the space where stick will tilt when moving it. Any suggestions is highly appreciated.

Thank you!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] SimpTheChimp:
What is this "activate another phone, then reactivate the 6800" trick that I keep hearing about occasionally? Is this a way to hard reset your phone without having to call Vzw to get a new A-key? :)

Chimp (Tom)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] crobs808:
#1 - i have hard reset my phone about 40 times since i got it, never had to get a new a-key

#2 - you can call verizon as much as you want and get as many a-keys as you want...they dont care

#3 - when i first got my phone and activated it, it wouldnt work for some reason...i could make and receive calls but couldnt browse the net, even though i had the unlimited data plan. so i had an old motorla phone laying around, went on the verizon site, logged in, selected "activate existing hardware" option, typed in the serial, then hit ok. that made my old phone my active line. then i went back a few pages, and re-did it, but using the serial from my new phone (xv6800 Titan), and voila! calls, email, internet, everything worked...I didn't have to call in.

however, point #2 still remains true...you can just call in an get a new a-key...it's way less work that doing #3 - but both work.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] SimpTheChimp:
Connor,

I do have my old Razr laying around so I could try that too. It is just a pain to call. Last time I had to explain to the first person, get transferred to tech services, explain it again, have them tell me over and over that they can't explain why just doing a hard reset causes the A-Key to go away, then look up the new key, etc etc. I think it took me 20 minutes last time including when I had to wait on hold.

So any other way would be nice. At least I now know how to do it. :)

Thanks!

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] crobs808:
If you tell them you are a software developer when you call, and that you need a new A-Key, they will skip all the amateur/dumb steps and just give you a new A-Key because then they think you know what you are talking about.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] trevagreene:
Just wondering if anyone has any feedback on the fabric cases available on the google store ? Do they collect lint or dust ? unlike a plastic case do they grip to your pockets when reaching for your phone ?
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] navalynt:
The fabric cases have a little bit of friction but not enough that it catches or makes it difficult to slide in/out of pockets. When you look at the oils and fingerprints on other cases just remember that your fabric case is actually absorbing most of that. Just because you can't see oil, dust, and dirt that it doesn't mean it's not there. I'd recommend that once a week you do the following:

Take the case off the phone (this should be assumed, but I don't know you)

Run the case under a warm water faucet until it looks and feels like it's saturated

Lather up some hand soap on your hands and then rub into the case for about a minute

Wash off the case (and your hands) for another minute rubbing on the case to make sure you're pushing the soap out

Let the case air dry for a few hours or use the low setting on a hair dryer (your hands are ok to dry using a towel or paper towel)
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] :
Is protection any good (edges, corners and front lip)? I always had SPECK cases but this year, they do not seem to come up with any Pixel 5 cases. I need a case that both looks good and adds some reasons protection against drops without adding too much bulk like the UA cases do.

Also, I am a little concerned that the fabric cases will stand the test of time. Any experiences?

I read that the case comes with a raised front "lip" to protect the display and IIRC, fabric cases for older models did not have this. Was the built updated?
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] ginfest:
I got a Google fabric case for my 3xl. Phone falls and hits right on the bottom edge where there is no protection.!

Screen cracks right at that spot. No problem, call Google - they denied my claim for a new screen! Said the case wasn't designed to protect the phone!

Screw Google and thier cases. I've dropped my 4XL many times with the UAG and or Spigen clear case on it and never had any damage!
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] thesebastian:
This is why I always try to go with the most grippy case.

The fabric case is one of the most slippery cases with dry hands. You just open you hand and your phone slips off like a flying bomb.

I've been using Spigen Thin Fit in black colour and it's a bit more grippy than a classic TPU.

However mate silicone rubber cases are probably even more grippy.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] sanjsrik:
I bought one of these for my 3xl, it broke the first time my phone fell from my desk.

---------- Post added at 09:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:22 AM ----------

The protection is NOT very good and as someone else noted here, even google seems unwilling to honor claims if you have the device in the case and it falls and breaks.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] pixelsquish:
I've had this case for two days. My first Google fabric case. I don't find it slippery and yes, it's easy to put in pocket and take out. I am concerned about the exposed bottom though. It would really have to land in a weird way to hit it though. I'm ordering a cheap tpu case as well however.

It does look real good. I have the blue version.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] maverick1103:
I got the case 3 days ago, so far I like it, like already mentioned the bottom being open is a worry but the case is very nice. I had a Spigen thin clear one for 5 days but it was a bit too bulky.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] driyana:
Given that this listing has now popped up, aos tv for pc the timeframe fits with what the audio acoustics firm turned into capable of share prior to this discovery. However, we are aware and might verify that the existing T-four hundred Comply Foam Tips are compatible with Pixel Buds. That stated, the larger sizes can cause troubles with the Pixel Buds case, as we have explained previously. A committed earbud tip for Google’s first clearly wi-fi earbuds is probably a warm price tag in that regard.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] tlxxxsracer:
The fabric WILL get dirty and discolor in a few weeks. It looks good initially but wont when the fabric darkens from oils.

The case doesn't feel the most secure on the phone, like if it's dropped I feel the phone would pop out of the case. The case doesnt "snap" onto the phone with a lip around the front class.

The case doesn't allow for the phone to sit nicely on the Pixel stand (wireless charger). THIS is a shame, you have to balance the case/phone for it to stand straight
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] thetonyclifton:
This is not my experience at all. The case is very tight and very secure. It is the first case that won't even allow a skin underneath it without tearing it up because it is so snug and the case wraps around to the front catching the edge of any skin. It doesnt cover the bottom of the phone which could be a negative for some.

I also have the lightest 'static grey' colour. I used the case every day with dark coloured and unwashed denim. It picked up a little oil on the outer edges from pocket friction after a month. Quick wash under the tap and it was back to brand new.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] pixelsquish:
I agree, I've had this case for over a month now and it doesn't feel like it will come off the phone at all. Haven't dropped the phone yet to test it out though. Also while I use the phone a ton, I haven't felt a need to wash mine yet, but of course YMMV depending upon your environment, if you use the phone while you eat, etc...

I just got the Speck grip case too only because I was worried about the open part of Fabric case on the bottom, but nothing else. I really dig the way the Fabric case looks much more. The orange button and orange google logo on the back make it easier to find in darkness too.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] p0izn:
This is not true. Do you really own this case or just posting your thoughts?

1. It won't get dirty in regular conditions for 99% of the ppl, of course if you work at oil refinery it would. It's easy to wash it with a soft sponge and dish washing liquid - takes 5mins. I owned two fabric cases for p3xl for 2years, now I have it for p5, and it's not dirty at all after 1.5mo. No signs of discolor, do not wash with bleaching substances and do not put in contact with aggressive chemicals. That's it.

2. It doesn't pop out when the phone falls - checked by myself unintentionally. It has a quite good leap from 3 sides, so the phone screen is quite protected. Of course it's not an Otterbox case, but I prefer good aesthetic over bulkiness with a grenade-blast-protection.

My only concern would be that the G logo has peeled off a little - p3xl cases were definitely better with that. But I fixed it with glue and a pin in 5mins

Sorry for my bad English.

Cheers

My experience has bee the same as yours. Love the case.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] tlxxxsracer:
I do own and use this case.. I also owned it for each pixel model I've owned.

After a few weeks it showed discoloration from oils/grease on my hands and dirt from surfaces. I have cleaned the orange case before but the color never truly returns to that from when its brand new.

Plus in a time right now, this sort of case is a nesting ground for germs and not as easily cleanable
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] baioss:
I use Google's green chameleon fabric case for my Pixel 5 sorta sage and I'm satisfied. Non slippery at all. The only problem is that if you put tempered glass the lips of the case is on the same height with the glass. Also using Spigen's Ultra hybrid. Very nice one too!

On my Pixel 4XL I have all the fabric cases except the blueish one. I like them so much.

When flashing custom roms, I noticed we never touch system image partition which take up about 3GB of space. What exactly is system image partition for? Is this related to A/B (seamless) system update feature? If I have no intention to go back to MIUI, can system image partition be removed to free up space? Does any custom roms use A/B system update when flashing updates?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Android's partition layout varies between vendors and versions. The bootloader will have one, the system (Android OS) will have one, the user data will have one… and so on and so forth. The OnePlus 6, for example, has 72 partitions. That sounds like a lot, but the OnePlus 6 is one of the devices that supports seamless updates which means many of these partitions are simply duplicates of each other.

However, a few partitions are present in all the Android devices. The /system ( Android OS ) partition is one of these: on A/B devices two /system partitions exist, on A-only devices only one /system partition exists.

Example:
