I accidentally locked my bootloader so I can't flash anything yet, I can unlock it after 12hours so i will see if I face the same problem.

I've followed every step mentioned by you but still, I'm facing multiple issues here:

Screen goes all black after this command 'Fastboot boot twrp.img'.

However, instead if I press volume up+key to reboot into TWRP

Strange folder names are showing can't flash any Zip.

And last,

Stock recovery replaces TWRP every time I get back to the system

Also I forgot to mention,

.) When I first time boot into TWRP, it asks me to enter password even though I haven't set any password in my device.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheSecondOne:
I wish you a good day. I know most people use this phone with custom rom. But since I am a clumsy person, I did not even dare to get root privileges. I cannot use any phone with root authority for a long time. Can I get root authority once and put the applications I want on the system and turn off the root authority?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Clumsy? Not unless you constantly drop your device. The words you're looking for are "inexperienced" and "concerned".

To be honest, unless you have a compelling reason these days to embed apps in /system, it's best not to. In any case, it is possible to root long enough to embed apps in the system partition and then remove root. If the apps have features that require root however, those features will not function unless rooted. Also note that rooting will trip Samsung Knox. If you need Knox, you can't even attempt to root or else the Knox container is lost.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheSecondOne:
Thank you very much for your answer.

What are the security vulnerabilities that I need to be aware of after getting root privilege? if i want to install custom rom what is the most stable rom? android version does not matter.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Security vulnerabilities? Ask Google, i.e. search. There should be plenty of discussion on the topic there.

What is the most stable ROM? I couldn't answer your question even if I wanted to, as I don't have an I9500; the hardware is different. Plus, what I believe is stable may not match your expectations. You'll have to try out the various ROMs until you find one you like.

Here you go.

Can I ask why you want it, is it for gcam or another purpose?
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Floflo81:
Funny, it says there is a front camera. But I think it's a sort of "virtual" camera that, when requested by an app, makes the cameras flip to the front.

I tested it with Skype and it works perfectly.

If you have installed GCam successfully, which APK did you install and with which settings file?
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Hcr2020:
This so I know support for alternative camera apps . The 64 megapixel is the one Level 3 . But the 2 others are Limited .

Is it possible to change the Limited to Full or Level 3 after rooting?
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Questions & Answers] mickey36736:
No need to change. All cameras are working. Including 64mp. Here is the list from Camera2 API

id 0 main back camera 16 mp (binned)

id 1 ultra wide front camera 6.5mp? (Possibly cropped from imx 363 for asus camera)

id 2 ultra wide back camera 12 mp

id 3 telephoto back camera 8 mp

id 7 main front camera 64 mp (raw)

id 8 logical camera

id 9 logical camera

id 10 logical camera

id 11 logical camera

I'm working on fixing bug, adding support for Zenfone 7/ 7 Pro

I will open a new thread once I finalize the GCam. :)

Currently, my version works well with the exception of Astro mode not working

https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog1323/?273

The next version will have working astro by default

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] erbold:
SM-N986N(KR) is being 80$ cheaper than the hong kong version. Should I go for the korean one or hong kong one? Is there any significant difference between the two? Which one usually gets the updates first? Do both of them not support eSim?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] cezeff:
HK version as it is dual sim...KR is single sim... No e-sim on HK version., Can't say for the KR, yet it probably won't have e-sim...HK is carrier free, while depending on the version of KR you buy it will have some carrier specific apps installed...Also Samsung Pay has been verified to work in different countries on the HK, while the KR version normally requires a Korean sim for Samsung Pay....Updates just depends, probably KR first but updates from Samsung has been good these days.... As you are be here, there are other threads explaining things extensively, please check those before creating any new threads. I have the HK version and using it in Japan with no problems.

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-note-20-ultra/help/to-hk-cn-sm-n9860-sd-ultra-5g-dualsim-t4144567

This is a very in-depth thread covering the in and out of the HK version.... If you can swing the extra $80, then it's highly advise to go with the HK version... You also need to verify the frequency bands supported by the HK/KR to ensure they provide the proper coverage for you please cellular service.... frequencycheck.com is a good reference site
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] erbold:
Thanks for the suggestion. I'm also gonna use it in japan too. How is the battery and overall experience so far?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] cezeff:
Absolutely love the phone and the battery life for me had been great.... Depending on your mobile provider you get in Japan, will affect battery somewhat, yet I think carrier aggregation really helps out..I have NTT Docomo and no issues at all when though the phone over covers 3 out of 5 bands... You have to let the battery optimization work for about a week... As time goes along the phone will learn your patterns and you will see more and more improvements to the battery life... People expect stellar out of the box without realizing the smart tech and learning curve the battery has to go through... I'm able to use Samsung Pay with the HK model in Japan using US cards, so that's a very big win... Any other Japan specific questions just let me know and be sure to use that "thanks" button in these forums, it goes a long way
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] androidlover287:
Samsung pay works flawlessly with my N986O (HK version) BUT. I can't add my UK loyalty cards as it is expecting HK retailers and shops, but both credit and debit cards added and worked 100% fine, you'll be registered with Samsung Pay HK

Edit 1: Far as loyalty cards go, adding a card not on the list, i.e manually seems to work fine
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] roryh86:
Has anyone had the chance to test out the Korean N986N in the UK? What's the experience so far?

I upgraded from the Exynos UK to the HK N9860, but I'm getting disappointed in how slow the firmware updates are. It's still on ATH1, while other devices have gone through ATH3/5/9 and now on ATI2/3/5/6.

The Korean N986N looks like it's been getting updates regularly. I was thinking of returning the N9860 and purchasing the N986N, and flash it with KOO unbranded CSC.

Anyone done a similar thing and can give their experience? 5G working OK (UK)? Does the phone still have bloatware on KOO CSC? Does KOO have Smart Call (Hiya)?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] peterng1618:
Same question here. Would the N986N ever be able to flash another region firmware & CSC in the future? Or it would forever be locked to KR? Thanks!

I'm a totally new Samsung user and regretted not being aware and search about this before getting the KR version, just because it seems to be the cheapest of all Snapdragon variants :(
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] roryh86:
Can you take a screenshot of your Software Information page (settings>about phone>software information) so we can see which CSC came with your phone? Did it have any logo when you boot up the phone and any bloatware you can't uninstall? Why are you regretting?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] pcriz:
Here you go,also no logos. The phone here all present as unlocked. Well I mean they are all unlocked. They don't come tied to a carrier, any software you have to download load on your own as far as carrier specific
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] peterng1618:
It's KTC, KT Telecom. I have Package Disabler Pro and have disabled most of the KT bloatware. But some stuff are deeply integrated into the OS like Korea localization content in apps & menus, Samsung Daily cards, carrier services in Settings and all. I'm hoping to get rid of them.

Also the inability to use Samsung Pay. At first i thought as long as i buy a variant that's not one of the official models for my country. I won't be able to use Samsung Pay. And that is a trade off I'm willing to make when it comes to performance (my country is Exynos). What I didn't know was there areother Snapdragon variants that can be flashed with an unrestricted CSC from my country and work with Samsung Pay.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] roryh86:
Ah, that's good news. So the KOO CSC is branding free, no Korean settings integration etc. Have you noticed any features missing? Like Smart Call (Spam identification/Hiya)? VoLTE working outside Korea? 5G working OK?

Instead of trying to disable the Korean apps, have you tried changing the CSC to the unbranded KOO variant like the user above? I changed my HK N9860 from TGY to BRI, I'm sure you should be able to do the same and change it from KTC to KOO and it will remove all those apps and Korean settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] pcriz:
To clarify I am in Korea with a Korean simcard in my phone. I made no csc modifications.

There is a hiya service but no settings for that or spam calls.

I don't use 5G service but it should be running fine out of the box on any of the carriers here.

As far as volte outside of korea, given the state of the world it might be a bit before I test that.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] roryh86:
Oh okay.

So when you go to your Phone app, and go to settings, you don't see an option called "Caller ID and spam protection"?

You should also see at the bottom of the Phone app, next to contacts on the right there should be "Places"
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] pcriz:

[Security Discussion] metroidnemesis13:
On a Qualcomm device (OnePlus 3T) running Android vers. 8, (rooted and stock more or less with TWRP), my question is this.

Is the cryptofooter always able to decrypt the device even after being destroyed and recreated (with the same PIN/password), or is there something special/distinctive that happens when the device is encrypted initially (like a random seed is used to encrypt) that is lost after the cryptofooter is destroyed, like the HMAC?

Explicitly, if I were to do the following:

1) set up the phone like new on Android v8.0.0, copy in a file onto the internal storage and then encrypt it with a pin

2) destroy/write over the cryptofooter (like installling a ZIP that overrides it) such that it could no longer be decrypted by TWRP or when booting into OS

3) back up the entire encrypted image of the phone in recovery via an ADB command (adb pull /dev/block/dm-0 file.img) to a PC

4) wipe all partitions on the phone and perform step 1) again with the same pin (generating a new cryptofooter)

5) go into ADB via TWRP, decrypt and mount the device storage/fs and pull the cryptofooter file structure/keys via adb

6) run adb push file.img /dev/block/dm-0 from TWRP to put the encrypted filesystem back

7) restore the cryptofooter from step 5 (via adb push)

8) unlock/mount the device internal storage utilizing the regenerated cryptofooter

would step 8 be possible?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] Tetsuo1981:
Hi all.

Thinking of grabbing one of these come payday but heard conflicting info regarding ads built into the OS. Apparently they only appear in the Xiaomi apps or when you install something from the play store. I wanted advice from actual owners, are there many ads? And is there a way to remove them (using AdGuard)?

For the price and specs I'm really tempted but not sure how I feel about being bombarded with ads.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] Patoilo:
Being a bit curious and having time to explore the devices, leaves you with absolutely no ads on the device.

For instance, you disable all sorts of tick boxes on the crappy MIUI security app, disable suggestions during setup and also while in the package installer, you press on its settings button (top right) and unselected both options there.

I have done this and confirm I have absolutely no ads on system apps on my Poco X3
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] arachnophobik:
Havent noticed much ads after turning off suggestions, an ad after downloading an app on playstore appears but nothing like a video ad or an unskippable one. So far no problems on my end as well. Deleted some apps using the debloater and I use mostly non-miui apps.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] Markuskwarkus:
If you turn "security scan" off in the settings you will not get any adverts while installing apps. On my poco x3 those were the only ads i got while using the phone so everthing is well. The issue is not only the poco x3 tho, it is with more MIUI phones fortunately you can turn it off.
