Hi guys

I've just received Tanix TX9S android box and I'm trying to flash a custom rom but my computer doesn't detect the box. I'm using Win 10 Pro 64bit and I've tried reinstalling the burning tool, installing with driver signature off, restarting, changing usb ports on both the pc and the box but it just doesn't work. I'm using this cable: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000574237363.html

Any ideas?
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
Cable Looks Quite Thin, It Says IUts A Data Cable So Should Work Just Might Not Provide Enough Power, Try Connecting Power At Same Time, that may help, or you might have to use mask rom mode to force your box to be detected
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] kalehrl:
I tried connecting power but to no avail. I don't think I will be opening the box so I'll have to live with stock ROM 😔
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
Aww, something you should try, when you eventually upgrade and it becomes a spare device :)
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] kalehrl:
Maybe I can try with an sd card.

I also have some logs in amlogic folder.

I've noticed 'NoDeviceConnected' error and sometimes 'Other device'.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aidanmacgregor:
Yhea SD Card Is Another Option, i Just Generally don't recommend This Method as if you flash a incompatible firmware and your device wont turn on then USB Burn Tool Will Be needed To Fix And Flash From a "Bricked" State
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] kalehrl:
I managed to flash my box. :D

I used the latest burning tool v3.1.0. During the installation, I plugged my box into the computer and saw that it not only installed world cup drivers, but additional ones as well which was a good sign. I also had to use the power supply because usb didn't output enough power.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aaflan88:
I have the same issues. At the moment that you plugged in your box with usb cable was your box already on power? en did you have to use the reset by toothpick reset at the time you plugged in?

BUZZTV XRS4900
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] kalehrl:
Yes, already on power and I used a toothpick.

But flashing is hit and miss with amlogic burning tool.

Sometimes it works, sometimes doesn't.

Try a different computer because for one of my boxes I had to use a Windows 7 machine.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] aaflan88:
Thank you.. I tried several options and cables and pc's.

When on power the toothpick doesn't work because it is already operational i guess

I try the mask rom method. Hope that will do the job
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] 3mel:
this doesn't sound like a good sign to me... world cup drivers !!??

I've yet to flash my box and I'm really put off by the fact that guides mention to ignore virus warnings and just to click OK. I haven't yet seen it uploaded onto xda either which makes me confident.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] EdT586:
Try older versions of the Amlogic USB Burning Tool, newer versions might not work with older boxes.

You can find most of the versions here: Amlogic USB Burning Tool - All Versions
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] kalehrl:
The problem was the cable. The Chinese one I bought first didn't work properly. The cheapest one from Amazon worked fine.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] yvprabhu:

On another note, has anyone tried using either the Galaxy Note9 or Note4's s-pen nibs for the tab S6 lite s-pen? Was wondering if I need to go out of my way to purchase specific nibs for the tab S6 lite s-pen or could I use the extra one's I've had from previous phones.

I regularly use wifi for work and at home on my mobile and it has become a very high annoyance that the wifi gets shut off when the phone goes into standby mode. I use IM regularily.

I have currently installed KaiserTweak and Advanced Configuration.

At the beginning I believe wifi would continue to work in standby with only KaiserTweak settings used.

However today once I installed advance configuration for the purpose of saving battery power without the use of 3G... I have lost the ability to use wifi whilst in standby mode.

I have tried uninstalling Advanced Configuration to no avail :confused:.

Any help would be much appreciated! :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dogatecat:
Wi-fi connectivity in standby mode?

As above I have so far installed KaiserTweak and Advanced configuration to no avail.

It will always disconnect once in standby mode.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] vinvv:

Thanks for the reply however It is currently enabled and my wifi still disappears...

I believe this was caused by the installation of Advanced Configuration which is currently removed
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kareeem:
This has really buged me as well as i ned wifi to stay on as well. YEsterday, i had everything going great, but then i did a hard reset and forgot to back up the settings.

If i'm in wifi mode and on Jivetalk, wifi will only stay on for about 2 minutes in standby mode and then turn off. I've tried editing the registry manually and messed with everything, but nothing sems to work atm.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dogatecat:
Exactly the same situation as me. I hope there is a fix for this as I've got too many things on the phone to do a hard reset However did the hard reset fix it all up in the end?

I'd hope registry items don't retain memory after a reset

OR

Anyone know how to remove Advanced Configuration entirely?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dogatecat:
UPDATE: I hard resetted and reinstalled everything just then.

Now I can't seem to get my hotmail syncing with it again through windows live and cannot disable 3G.

Bottom line though.... its still the same!!!!

I have KaiserTweak enabling the standby wifi and it will still disconnect me when i put it on standby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All that time wasted....

I have tested this through having downloads on and MSN and then switching to standby mode. Upon waking the device up all connections will be interrupted and the wifi will require a reconnection.

However, if I were to be doing nothing with the wifi on and go into standby, the connection will still be there upon wake and not require reconnection (useless...)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kareeem:
Try downloading the newest Schap's 3.0 tool. Nothing is working for me as well. I wish i had saved the registry to go back to it but i forgot and now it doesn't work in standby mode.

[Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers] dadu1257:
I got Lineage 17 w/ Magisk root running now neat and great and I want to perform a full NANDroid Backup.

After some research it seems crucial to have a custom recovery like TWRP for that. There is the online nandroid thing - but I would need CWM or anything like this to restore?!

So my question is

a) is there another custom recovery (compatible with Pixel 3a XL w/ lineage 17 based on android 10) I can install and perform Nandroid backup with?

b) any other solution to perform this backup and restore? I heard there are cmd commands for that as well , but I'm a noobie not so sure to do that.

of course there are several apps out there to backup data.. but I don't trust ''any'' app to get root permission. In F Droid I couldn't find what I was looking for. Suggestion?

thank you for help!
[Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers] LoganDark:
It is unsafe to perform backups while booted into Android, as files may be changed/added/removed while the backup is taking place.

This is why it tends to be a feature of custom recoveries.

Titanium Backup is good. It doesn't support split APKs like YouTube but the data restore works flawlessly. This is an old utility app so you can trust it with root. You can find Titanium Backup on the play store, it is the one with the star and "root required".

If you want to perform full backups of your PHONE you will want TWRP. If you want to perform full backups of your APPS then you will want to use an app like Titanium Backup (however Titanium Backup is not updated for split APKs, like I said above), which will allow you to transfer your backups to a new phone and fully restore all apps & data (as long as both phones have root).
[Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers] dadu1257:
Sure problem is I want to perform a full backup of my phone, but TWRP ist not available. What are my options?
[Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers] LoganDark:
Does TWRP for Pixel 3a XL not work for you? All you have to do is download the "twrp-installer-3.4.0-0-bonito.zip", install it as a Magisk module, then direct install Magisk again, then reboot into recovery and you'll have TWRP.

When accepting OTAs, you will want to use the "TWRP A/B retention script" before you install Magisk to the inactive slot. The script is available as part of the Magisk modules repository, so you should be able to install it directly from within Magisk Manager.
[Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers] dadu1257:
TWRP doesnt work for me, see here what user 41rw4lk wrote, too..

Is there a tutorial on how to install twrp as a masgisk module?

Also, how else can I perform a backup img for my phone?

thank you

[Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers] adm1jtg:
Benn trying to get this to work for a little bit now and no luck at all....

Let me start by saying i an NOT running LOS so that might be the whole issue...

I have tried with pure stock and stock with ex kernel

Same results for each

1) TWRP loads as the recovery and can be booted into, BUT the rom is now soft bricked and wont boot at all

2) Even when in twrp I cannot flash anything, cannot see sdcard and cannot backup data partition (the data partition shows as 0 space)

Perhaps the LOS kernel or rom adds something thats missing in my two setups?

The sample video is for another phone. My recolection is that twrp and pixels on android 10 or 11 wont work. Lineageos 17.1 is android 10 based. I think it worked on that other phone as it was not a pixel.

Can anyone confirm or deny if this works in any configuration of android 10 or 11 on our phones?
[Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers] LoganDark:
Huh, that's weird... I apologize, I'm not very good at supporting devices I don't own. I'm not running Lineage either, I'm running stock plus mods.

It's possible that it doesn't work on your phone for whatever reason. There are a couple ways to install TWRP nowadays, check them out maybe? I promise TWRP is what you want for backups.
[Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers] adm1jtg:
Agreed but twrp simply doesnt work on our phones, or even any pixel 3 or above. It can't read the partitions correctly. Just trying to keep people from soft bricking their phone. Something about andriod 10 and 11 and the phones a/b partition configuration
[Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers] LoganDark:
Where did you hear this? I'll admit, I haven't heard about TWRP not working on Pixels, but it's relevant and it would be good to know if I ever help another Pixel user in the future.

That's interesting, because my OnePlus 7 Pro runs Android 10 with an A/B configuration and TWRP works just fine. Haven't found a single feature that didn't work. Flashing custom ROMs, changing boot slots, etc. all work fine. So it can't be the A/B configuration.

And this:

https://xdaforums.com/t/tips-for-preserving-twrp-from-pie-to-q.4179385/

No method I have tried results in anything but an unusable twrp or a boot loop. Cant even fastboot boot current version. All about dynamic partitions and lzma compression as I guess the partition isnt big enough. But bottom line is I have yet to find anyone including myself who can get twrp to in any way shape or form be usable on our phones for android 10 or newer.

this is what command prompt gives with fastboot boot

Sending 'boot.img' (65536 KB) OKAY [ 1.509s]

Booting FAILED (remote: 'Error verifying the received boot.img: Invalid Parameter')

This is likely due to the kernels I use likely not having lzma. Checking into it.

fastboot: error: Command failed
[Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers] rudolph323:
I'm not sure how reliable is that. I just did a backup of Lineage 17 in TWRP, System and Data, restored it a few hours later through OTG and it got stuck on a google boot screen... Now I installed the LOS 17 ROM again (which I had in internal storage) but restored only Data (excl. storage).

It boots up now, but most apps are corrupted - if I open them they crash ('App ... keeps stopping').

I wouldn't count on it. TWRP nandroid backup is very unreliable.

[Huawei P20 Lite Questions & Answers] -Alf-:
Do you mean OTA update? OTA update has nothing to do with bootloader status (flashing oeminfo or Service ROM from dload will lock the bootloader again).

You can disable System update apk via ADB , run command

adb shell pm disable-user com.huawei.android.hwouc

You can also disable/uninstall System update apk from Multi-Tool

[Moto G7 Plus Questions & Answers] E5k9cfRy:
I just bought a G7 Plus on amazon for $122 which is produced in 11/05/2020 with the latest version of rom. Model XT1965-T

Currentlly, I already unlock the bootloader. I have installed the mokee rom and lineage os for more than 15 times.

The biggest issue is NO SERVICE on my phone. But the IMEI is exist. I can connect to wifi.

I also tried to flash the stock baseband which leads to IMEI 0.

Hope someone faced the same issue could helpe me to fix it.

Thank you very much.
[Moto G7 Plus Questions & Answers] bakshi12:
I am faced with the same issue. Have you found the Motorola stock rom? Please let me know if have resolved this. I may buy another XT1965-T and save the stock rom from it.
[Moto G7 Plus Questions & Answers] papperlapapp:
I once had the same issue. Flashing the stock baseband is not enough. Your EFS is fckd and you probably have no backup.

You have to install the complete stock ROM again, reboot and see if your IMEI and stuff gets restored.

You can get the stock ROM from Lolinet:

lolinet mirrors - firmware, software, iso etc.

lolinet mirrors - powered by h5ai

mirrors.lolinet.com

I dont know the correct folder for your 1965 model, this is the US version? Maybe the RETAIL folder?

Oh, there is an older version from LineageOS from November 2020 that works with cell network and does not kill the IMEI, you can get it from this thread: if you try this version, you may not need to flash the stock ROM.

LineageOS-17.1--2020-11-24

Tip:

Once you have your IMEI and cell network working again, you might try the command reboot nvbackup to have a backup created. And in case of losing IMEI and cell network again you might try reboot nvrestore.

I have only tried the reboot nvbackup so far, I have no experience with reboot nvrestore.

A good thread to learn about the EFS is there on xda:

efs-modemst-Guide

Learn about EFS. On Play Store there is an app that promises to create backups of the EFS, I dont know how reliable that tool is, never used, you can get it there:

wanam partitions backup tool
[Moto G7 Plus Questions & Answers] bakshi12:
First off, that is the firmware that caused the trouble. It is for the T_Mobile version NOT the Motorola version. The only version for XT1965-T on lolinet is for T-Mobile. The version in the RETAIL directory does not boot at all.

then change to 20201124, it's ok.

[Moto G7 Plus Questions & Answers] youzi0335:
maybe you can try to install copy Partitions AB.zip

=========================

Pre-install instructions

In some cases slot b can be unpopulated or contain much older firmware than slot a, leading to various issues including a potential hard-brick. We can ensure none of that will happen by copying the contents of slot a to slot b. This step is NOT optional.

To do this, sideload the copy-partitions-20200903_1329.zip package by doing the following:

Download the copy-partitions-20200903_1329.zip file from here.

Sideload the copy-partitions-20200903_1329.zip package:

On the device, select “Apply Update”, then “Apply from ADB” to begin sideload.

On the host machine, sideload the package using: adb sideload copy-partitions-20200903_1329.zip

info_outline

NOTE: The copy-partitions script was created by LineageOS developer erfanoabdi and filipepferraz, but isn’t signed with LineageOS’s official key, and therefore when it is sideloaded, Lineage Recovery will present a screen that says Signature verification failed, this is expected, please click Continue.

===========================
[Moto G7 Plus Questions & Answers] bakshi12:
I have already tired that. As a matter of fact I used that when I first loaded Lineage.
[Moto G7 Plus Questions & Answers] bakshi12:
OK. I restored the XT1965-T (US Version) with stock firmware. The phone now works as stock, radio, WiFi, and all.

Here's what I did:

1) Bought an identical phone,

2) I did not unlock the bootloader on the new phone,

3) I used Rescue and Smart Assistant and did NOT register the phone,

4) I used Rescue mode and it correctly identified the device,

5) RSA allowed me to download the correct stock rom (LAKE_QPW30.61-21-18-7_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip),

6) I closed RSA and extracted the zipped file,

7) I converted the flashfile.xml to a batch file,

8) I ran the batch job and the phone rebooted as stock.

So, does anyone want the proper stock rom? I will send it to you if you have a server to host it on for other to download. Does anyone want to buy my extra Moto g7 Plus?
