Idk if this offer will be available in your country, but for 204€ you can have a google pixel 3a, it has really good ROM support, easy bootloader unlock, and official Android updates.

Here's the link : https://www.backmarket.fr/google-go...cSYGn2dk7zH0iLe_IMj76LldDMGMtSYRoCnuoQAvD_BwE

Try this one if the other doesn't work with your country :

In short, Google pixel 3a is a good 2ndary phone
[General Questions and Answers] nation888888:
The cheap knock offs state fake specs on the phone and descriptions. Since they are all slightly different you would have to study the product in detail using an app called phone information. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.inpocketsoftware.andInfo&hl=en_CA&gl=US

The most common processor is the MT65XX. Most of these phones are surprisingly 32bit only. The sellers will never tell you exact specs before you buy, so it's a gamble. I have the Oukitel K9 with a MT6765 that works with Android 12 GSI, but lacks a partition and required some additional magisk setup. Having this knowledge you can look for Oukitel as a model number in the Spec on websites. For instance Mix 4 (knock off) all fake specs but the model is Oukitel and chances are the processor should be Mediatek. If the processor is greater than MT67XX and Ram is 4GB then you will be able to install GSI provided the partitions are standard.
[Xiaomi Mi Max 2  Questions & Answers] lg-optimus:
I have an original Xiaomi Mi Max 2 (Android Version: 7.1.1, Build: NMF26F) with all the Xiaomi updates. Since the phone doesn't get updates anymore, I am looking for a solution to get a custom rom with security updates.

I am searching for a custom rom too, which does not need GPS for Wifi-SSID. With my mi Mi Max 3 and Android 10, GPS (saving doesn't exist anymore) GPS must be activated to see the SSID and I am forced to use LTE, while I want 2G (setting is lost after a restart)

So maybe a ROM based on Android 9 makes sense?

Please point me to a link how to "open" the original phone, so I can flash a custom rom. Does the official way work with the Max2? I have a very old PC, but with Windows 10 20H2 for flashing, normally I use a linux pc.

I am happy if you can help me how to start.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Maruf14:
can any one tell me which custom rom is best and which kernel is best for google pixel 2xl ? :)
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] 5.1:
Hi,

The best ROM \ Kernel, is the one that suits you best.

Check the development section, read a few threads and install one. If you don't like it, switch to another one and so on...

I'm using Dirty Unicorns on Pixel XL 1, 2, 3. It has everything "I" want.

Custom Kernel: Dirty Unicorns kernel is great, but I use ElementalX for High brightness mode and KCAL / KLAPSE features.

But this is personal tastes. :good:

Cheers...

Sébastien.

Thanks dev for the nice works, the rom is running quite good with minor bugs so far. Chat bubbles (Facebook Messenger) frequently crashes system UI, especially when trying to open old-clossed bubbles. Sometimes after boot up or reboot, the wifi is connected but doesn't have internet. These bugs appear on both stock kernel and custom kernel. Btw the extremely fast animation can be changed in developer option.

[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] InfX:
I know it stores media scan db. Unlike previous Android versions, the OS does not let one wipe it's data or even force stop it. Using "pm clear com.android.providers.media" from ADB is, apparently, still allowed but doesn't seem to fix anything. It seem to recreate the db, judging by all the ringtones/notification tones getting reset everywhere, but it's data size remains about 3.8gb, which is insane. Media scanner apps show 401 total media files found, 355 images, 22 video and 24 audio files, those amounts should be far cry from being a big deal. What in the world is going on?! I don't have root, so i can't peek in /data/data/com.android.providers.media. I absolutely do not want to hard reset either.

Any ideas? :(
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] InfX:
False alert. System UI seems to report the entire shared storage at "data" of that app, which has mislead me. Not sure if i should delete this thread now, or keep it in case someone else happens to notice this and wonders.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] dirtyreturn:
I had telegram do that to me before, kind of. Like, how did all these pictures get here and stuff...
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] InfX:
It was a false alarm from my side, it didn't actually blow that db out of proportions, it just mistakenly shows everything on the "internal storage" as belonging to that app data. Guess it just counts everything created by whatever Linux user MTP runs on, and everything there belongs to that user.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] InfX:
BTW, since when did they disable wiping the data on it? Is it new on Android 11, or did i skip too many Android versions, lol. Still possible over adb, with pm, though. Gladly, doesn't follow the same logic the counting does!
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] dirtyreturn:
I've not got an answer. I remember that on like ics or honeycomb gingerbread.

A while ago, anyway.

Well good news on your findings! When things like that happen it's crazy strange

There's the reset option under settings system now I guess
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] InfX:
Indeed it is crazy strange. I've had this db getting huge before on older devices, but my first though was "how the hell, the phone is a week old", second thought "screw it, wipe and let it rescan", and then i see it still huge, lol.

Keeping this thread instead of deleting it, who knows, maybe in a month from now someone is going to wonder about the same thing.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] dirtyreturn:
I'd sure not delete it.

[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] DroidFreak32:
And I just did, LOL. Good that it was not closed xD
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] mugenishere:
It is not a false alert. You're partially right. The data isn't actually used by mediastorage because it just links to media files on the system. The problem is that Android is stupid enough to not have an exclusion for mediastorage's usage report.

In other words, Android is dumb enough to think that mediastorage is actually using all that space which will lead to a lack of storage space on your phone.
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] Redrainz:
Why is there almost no custom roms for the lg35 here compared to the lg v30 which has a lot?

Are they backwards compatible?
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] ChazzMatt:
No. They are two totally different phone series. V35 is more related to V40 and G8 internally than V30. The G8/V35/V40 are Snapdragon 845 "Judy" phones. V30 is "Joan" Snapdragon 835.

Why no ROMs? Took too long to get root, too hard, and V35 initially was only released for AT&T in U.S. Developers moved on to easier phones, distributed more widely.
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] cmrntnnr:
I'd add a few more factors that stacked the deck against development for the V35.

It had a more geographically limited release than its siblings, the V40 and G7. Europe was not on the list and those phones are BL unlockable out of the box. Those phones really prime developer activity. The release in the US was by AT&T, Google, and later Amazon so limited there, too.

There are impending 3G shutdowns coming in NA so making phone calls will require VoLTE. Dev's have yet to reverse engineer the LG radio interface so that VoLTE can be supported on AOSP roms. Rooted stock is where I am for this reason and the same probably applies to anyone with LG V and G models soon enough, EoY 2020 for Verizon subscribers.

Lastly, there was the whole A/B slot transition with removal of the recovery partition.

Changes to TWRP had to be made.

Unless there are serious changes are forthcoming, this is my last LG phone. IMO, no A10 is the biggest strike against the V35.
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] cmlosaria:
I'm using the Korean Android 10 on my AT&T LG V35. Aside from the loud camera shutter sounds which cannot be disabled (law in Korea), I have found no major annoyance. 4 months now on Android 10.
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] rpgdev:
Wait, is this confirmed? I thought they were at last eventually going to release A10 for the NA firmwares, is this not the case anymore? Edit: btw, I second the sentiment, this is my first LG phone but also my last. Their stock OS is kind of ackward in weird ways... it's not very polished. I came from a cheap lowmid Huawei phone and their OS was still very polished when compared to this LG. Huawei knew where to add "proprietary" utilities and where not to. The upgrade was still worth it because of the performance boost though.
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] rpgdev:
Were you able to root it?
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] cmrntnnr:
It seems unlikely after so much time that an NA version of A10 will be released by LG. It is kind of moot at this point. Thanks to @cloud1250000 it is possible to flash the Korean A10 rom. Just follow his/her guide to localize to NA, CA or probably other regions. It works great!

Happy New Year!
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] rpgdev:
I was not thinking on using that Korean A10 rom but since I have to reinstall my rom anyways might just give it a go. Can I go back to pie or oreo after installing the korean rom? I think I read it wasn't possible.
[LG V35 Questions & Answers] cmrntnnr:
Yes, flashing back to Pie works fine.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] imneveral0ne:
Ok, so I'm gonna do the update to android 11 now that it seems to be more stable. My question is, once I do that, and I keep root, is there a way to do a factory data reset and not lose root all together? I like to do a factory reset when doing a major update just to make sure things run as smooth as possible, but I'd like to not lose root in the process. Thanks in advance!
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] s3axel:
Root (aka Magisk) IMHO resides in the boot image, so a factory reset would not interfere with root itself. Of course you would need to reinstall Magisk manager (Canary) after the factory reset. Oh, and you need to be on Canary Magisk for A11 anyway - so if you do the update from A10 you need to make sure you are on Magisk Canary (Manager and Magisk itself) or it won't work afterwards...
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] :
Nope latest beta works great too. Canary isn't needed anymore.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:
I have guides for this and for 11-11 they're in the guides section.

Thoroughly tested.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] imneveral0ne:
So I just need beta magisk and the regular app? Cause I just installed the canary magisk manager and it's missing quite a few options like magisk hide and such. And I definitely need those.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] imneveral0ne:
That is a lot more involved than I was expecting this to be. I figured I could just retain root with an update the same way I always do.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:
It's 9 steps?

You need to remove modules, you will need to use the updated boot img and your won't have twrp to fall back on.

If you want to wipe after you'll need to set up then reinstall magisk then obtain your boot img, patch it and boot it then flash it directly.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] imneveral0ne:
It's not that, it's just that I usually used a pretty simple guide for updates and I didn't need to do anything on the computer for it to work.

Is it because we're updating from 10 to 11 that these extra steps are needed? Sorry, I'm just curious is all.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:
No not at all.

Tbh it's extremely similar.

Just that the way I've written it means you won't have issues, I'd rather cover bases in a guide than answer a 100 questions later.

If you have magisk functional already then you're halfway there.

I've updated the OP in my guide.

Some steps are informational
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] imneveral0ne:
I installed the canary built of magisk from your thread, but there isn't an install button. ?

Edit: I went back to the beta build and it worked fine with patching.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:
Good stuff..so what channel did you change it to.? Are you able to provide a version as someone has the exact same issue.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] imneveral0ne:
Just the beta channel. And I can once I get my phone working again lol. You straight up told me I was gonna need to use this to root my phone after a factory reset. And I went ahead and installed twrp anyway. Using the msm tool now to fix it lol.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] dlads:
Lol no worries man. Glad you're up and running.

:good:
