Good evening,

I have completed all the steps you mentioned, yet the update quits at about half turning a blue led and resetting to The Sony Logo of death. My son says that he flashed a twrp bootloader when it was in fastboot (the sony logo which it took the fastboot signal with the usb cable) once he resetted the present issue is at hand. the model is a 2018 Sony Bravia KD-55x750F us variant. Any advice?
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Kennylyk:
Hi obonila43,

I am unable to provide any further advice because my steps were based on online research.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Kennylyk:
Note to all.

This issue was in 2020.

I remember that I managed to solve the bricked TV but was having random reboot and app crashes. However, few weeks later , those random reboot and app crashes disappeared after some app updates in the google playstore. So I assumed it was some sort of software incompatibilities / communication issues in the Sony / Android operating system which were solved by the updates.

This thread can be considered closed as my request is solved. Thanks to all for your suggestions.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] obonilla43:
Thank you very much for your quick response.
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] TSP7:
I got my OnePlus 8 (IN2013) yesterday, so the first thing I did was unlock the bootloader. Now I am unsure about the "best" (most simple and foolproof way) to proceed and would like some help.

As mentioned above I am on 10.5.12 IN21AA firmware and would like to gain root access. I'm not interested in flashing a different OS or whatsoever. I'm perfectly able to follow step-by-step guides but am confused by no official TWRP seemingly being available for this device, messages about lost functionality (fingerprint sensor), etc. etc.

Would someone please be so kind to provide the correct steps?
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] AlDollaz:
Boot (or flash if you want to keep TWRP. I recommend just booting it) TWRP > flash Magisk from TWRP.

That's it.
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] auris1993:
i rooted with patching boot.img with magisk, was easy enough and all went smooth
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] TSP7:
I ended up doing the following (for other inexperienced users with similar questions). This approach is largely based on the steps described here, so many thanks to jacobyo7. I have added links to relevant threads to make it easy to reference all the necessary threads and get all the necessary files, programs etc.

Connect phone to computer and make sure USB Debugging is on

Retrieve the correct firmware, see this thread

Using payload dumper, extract boot.img from payload.bin

Transfer boot.img (extracted in previous step) to device

Install Magisk Manager (not in Play Store but easy to find on Google)

Open Magisk Manager > click "Install" (next to Magisk) > click "Install" > click "Select and patch a file" > select boot.img (transferred to device two steps earlier)

Transfer magisk_patched.img (created in previous step, probably located in Downloads) to computer, rename to boot.img

Open command prompt in folder with the patched boot.img (make sure you have installed this tool, so you can issue adb and fastboot commands from anywhere)

Reboot into fastboot/bootloader:

adb reboot bootloader

make sure device is listed:

fastboot devices

Boot the patched image:

fastboot boot boot.img

Wait for the phone to reboot > Open Magisk Manager > click "Install" (next to Magisk) > click "Install" > click "Direct install"

Reboot

Open a terminal app (e.g. Termux) and backup the persist partition:

su

dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/persist of=/sdcard/Download/persist.img

Backup persist.img to computer

Hi guys,

my s10 gives me only 4 hour of SOT with under 4 hours usage and 13 hours idle. Is the mi 10 a good replacement for it?

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] HyperEscape:
Hello,

So my original note 8 was N950F 256GB Dual SIM bought in 2017. It kept on working fine, until recently it started giving the problems in mentioned order

a. excessive battery drain

b. not being able to charge wired or wirelessly

c. complete blackout.

I went for a lookout of a replacement 256GB , and was able to find one on AliExpress, risky as it always is, i took my bets to order one after some correspondence from the seller who seemed legit and helpful.

Fast forward 22 days, I got the motherboard, installed in my existing body and housing, and voila it turned on and apparently seemed to be working fine. However i came to conclusion that it was originally a N950N (maybe Korea Dual SIM) motherboard which was flashed with the firmware/CSC/baseband for UAE reigon , maybe it was done by the seller knowing my location for ordering and the usage reigon. KNOX status was tipped as well, but it is not rooted as of now (maybe reverted to stock) , so all root sensitve applications (banking , netflix etc) do work as well.

The problem is, though everything works as intended. I am unable to place and receive voice calls reliably. Most of the time the outgoing call never gets placed on the network and drops after waiting for 8-10 seconds, and the incoming callers inform me that my mobile was out of reach for them to ring me.

I suspect it may have to do with the correct baseband not being compatible with local service providers.

Seeking expert help out here for the guidance , download location and the right combination of the firmware components to be used to bring the phone back to a reliable voice calling status to be used in KSA region

All help is much appreciated.

Why are you so impatient? Keep in mind that this forum isn't a 24/7 service you've paid for.

Anyway try this

Step 1: Log into the Google account synced on device in question by following this link: https://myaccount.google.com/.

Step 2: Visit Device activity & notifications. This should be available under Sign-in & security.

Step 3: Under Recently used devices, tap on Review devices.

Step 4: Select the device whose FRP lock you would like to disable. Next, click the red Remove button to disable FRP lock. Confirm the action on the pop-up.

There is any other way to bypass lockscreen?? We could pay something if it's needed.

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] stockh0lm:
What does it take to configure an ethernet eth0 device on my S9 (Andorid 10)? Under what conditions does it recognize a network interface to be connected and worthy to configure permanently? Does it test for certain internet hosts? Does it test if DNS requests being answered?

I have an usb ethernet adapter which is recognized by my S9. Now I want to give the ethernet interface a static IP address in order to be able to receive UDP packages from an other ethernet device. These two devices are the only ones on the network. I will use it out in the wild where there is no full featured network or other infrastructure, and the devices would just communicate using their hard coded IP addresses.

However the S9 refuses to accept my manual configuration and does not bring the interface up (after a brief (2s?) periode of trying). In the past, with lineageOS and an S5 i was able to install a special file in the system partition preconfiguring the device. i didnt root the S9, so this option is not available.

What are the prerequisits for android to accept the ethernet configuration and setting the interface to UP? How can I fake those prerequisits to be able to configure my eth0 and receive packages on my IP address?

Update: switching the phone into airplane mode seemed to have made it "try harder" to bring eth0 up. however, it was not up continously but went down for a second every now and then. I am still looking for a robust solution.
