[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Questions & Answers] lowrider82:
Hi guys, I have the OP7TP ME. I have always managed to root it through:

1)extraction of boot_a.img

2)patch file with magisk

3)flash file through adb

4)boot phone and patch again through magisk direct in order to recover wifi functionality

with the latest update though this process doesn't work anymore. Step 4 does not work which means if I do the first 3 and boot the phone, I have no wifi and after a while the phone crashes and reboots.

The only way to fix my phone so that it works again, is to reflash the full official update file.

Any help will be well appreciated on how to get root access without issues again.

Many thanks in advance
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Questions & Answers] Macusercom:
Don't extract boot_a but extract boot.img which is from the current partition. Also I'd flash via fastboot. You don't need to patch with Magisk again if it's already patched.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Questions & Answers] lowrider82:
Thanks I'll try
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Questions & Answers] lowrider82:
Hi thanks, I just tried with boot.img and it still doesn't work. No Wifi after flashing the patched version of it, and after a while phone crashes. Do you have a detailed guide to link me to?

[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Questions & Answers] lowrider82:
Hi thanks.. Unfortunately that's the guide I followed and it doesn't work :( no wifi and crash... Have you managed to root yours this way, with the latest firmware? Also I noticed that the latest magisk manager I have, doesn't offer the two options Prserve AVB 2.0/dm-verity & Preserve force encryption...they are just not present in the application....
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Questions & Answers] Macusercom:
Strange. Which OOS version are you running? It is fine for me with my BA version (the EU one) :confused:
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Questions & Answers] toolhas4degrees:
Use beta magisk manager and try again

Also the lack of wifi is usually a mismatched boot to os ver

I'm on latest global ver of op7tp and rooted this way

edit:

problem solved, got the h918 up and running all right with download mode flashed back on, recent twrp on recovery,

20H and root.

this was just impossible for people with little knowledge like me. what helped in the end was a huge bunch of luck and reading reading reading. for hours and days. will now create complete guide for REAL helpless people (like me) that want just a rooted phone with twrp. thx to all the genius people that made so much possible here.

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

hi,

hope someone can help me with this since im struggling for weeks now.

got a H918, managed to unlock bootloader with linuxbootstick on laptop since it wont run on pc,

and got twrp on it with runningnaked whateveritis.

then i completewiped it, and... i cant remember ! somehow i got android working, but i couldnt restart into downloadmode. bcuz downloadmode is now twrp. i cant remember to have installed twrp as downloadmode.

also i dont have a keyboard anymore in android. first i wondered why playstore wanted to force me to speak to it, couldnt explain, then i noticed there is no keyboard present (i didnt delete it) ok fk it, complete wipe, restored backup of a fully functional OS (10p it should be i think) no keyboard present again AHA. i mean, i didnt make a bu without a keyboard present. so now i dont know whats going on. had a very hard time to have the phone being recognized by pc for running LGUP and downgrading from 20H to 10P, not possible now anymore. tried cables, ports, different picturetransferprotocol/mtp/midi etc. fastbootmode/twrp (downloadmode, in which it worked before is not accessible anymore)

i just cant make the phone being recognized by pc or laptop anymore. only way to get to twrp, is disconnect

usb-cable, turn phone off, hold volUP put in usb cable, yea, thats the way to get into downloadmode, now it starts into twrp. when holding volDOWN and plug in usb cable it starts into fastboot mode.

dont know what to do now.

when rebooting from twrp into twrp i get the NO COMMAND screen with dead android robot. i had a hard time with my v10, now with a little more experience, i just dont know what to do anymore. nothing will work, android deletes the keyboard FOR NO REASON and saves this into the twrp backup afterwards, yea ridiculous, i know.

what is this shlt? what can i do? i want a phone running rooted with magisk, lucky patcher and poweramp, thats not too much of request. someone got any ideas?

thx
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EasyToHack:
Good day , I have a general question about these and hope someone could explain me what exactly happens there:

So , I played around with some props values ( also looked a bit into the aosp code / dev docu ) and set these values with magisk as system.prop

dalvik.vm.isa.arm64.features=Default

dalvik.vm.isa.arm.variant=cortex-a76

dalvik.vm.isa.arm.features=Default

dalvik.vm.heapstartsize=16m

dalvik.vm.heapgrowthlimit=256m

dalvik.vm.heapsize=512m

dalvik.vm.heaptargetutilization=0.5

dalvik.vm.heapminfree=8m

dalvik.vm.heapmaxfree=32m

dalvik.vm.dex2oat64.enabled=True

dalvik.vm.dex2oat-flags=--debuggable

dalvik.vm.dex2oat-filter=everything

dalvik.vm.image-dex2oat-flags=--debuggable

dalvik.vm.image-dex2oat-filter=everything

dalvik.vm.dex2oat-Xms=16m

dalvik.vm.dex2oat-Xmx=512m

persist.dalvik.vm.dex2oat-threads=8

dalvik.vm.dex2oat-threads=8

dalvik.vm.image-dex2oat-threads=8

dalvik.vm.boot-dex2oat-threads=8

dalvik.vm.jitmaxsize=128m

#extrem values ! Default would be 10000

dalvik.vm.jitthreshold=2500

dalvik.vm.jittransitionweight=333

dalvik.vm.jitprithreadweight=333

pm.dexopt.install=speed

pm.dexopt.bg-dexopt=speed

Note here that I used first dalvik.vm.dex2oat-Xmx=256m instead of 512m , after a Dalvik clean up and rebuild I had 248m of Dalvik cache , no noticable performance impacts etc , I though It would be better to raise the value. In the same reboot process to enable the changes I also did an update , now my Dalvik cache is empty and can't be rebuilt , the interesting part is that my system is now quicker ? Especially in games I can notice a significant boost in startup time and menu transitions , but firefox (the only app atm) doesn't like this but can be used normaly after 3 "crashes-to-launcher"

Side Note: I don't need answers how to repair anything , I'm curious what's going on

So my questions is first how can it be faster if it presumably uses the default java JiT in memory instead of creating Dalvik cache + odex files

And what happend that Dalvik etc can't be normaly initiated ? Does it not like the settings and simply crash , or is this the right behavior for my settings and I have simply no idea what I'm doing ?

Thank you for reading and any helpfull response :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 1890170:
Both the Dalvik ( uses Just-In-time compiler, JIT ) and the ART ( what uses Ahead-Of-Time compiler, AOT ) are a Android runtime. ART is the default runtime since Android Lollipop. Knowing this you have to clarify what Android OS you are trying to hack.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EasyToHack:
Right it would probably good to know my setup , I use the Mi 9T with Miui 12.3 on android 11 , ram is 6gb , cpu/gpu is SDM730

Thank you for the first clarification , so does this mean the JiT is on newer OSs ineffektiv ? Or just a backup technique
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Temberness:
Hi,

Problem:

I don't know the cause. I was casually reading an article in Firefox then the phone suddenly freezes for a few seconds. After that, the phone is now on bootloop.

Phone's status before the problem:

rom - stock (from V12.0.1.0.QFKEUXM to V12.0.2.0.QFKEUXM via MIUI updates)

bootloader - locked

twrp - not installed

root - none

The things I tried to fix the problem were:

- Factory reset

- Flash a recovery rom (V12.0.2.0.QFKEUXM) via Mi Phone Assistant v4.2

Flash was a success, with no problems during the flash phase. But the bootloop was still there.

- Flash a fastboot rom (V12.0.2.0.QFKEUXM) via MiFlash (Xiaomi_Flash_20170425.zip)

Flash was a success, with no problems during the flash phase. Still, the bootloop was evident.

- Flash a PixelExperience rom via TWRP (twrp-3.4.0-0-raphael-mauronofrio)

Flash was a success, with no problems during the flash phase. I saw the Google Logo after the "adb reboot" command but the bootloop was still apparent.

- I tried "XiaoMiTool V2 project" as well that installed V12.0.3.0.QFKEUXM with no problems during the flash phase. But the bootloop was still there.

- Manually flashing a persist.img via TWRP or Fastboot. Bootloop was still there.

The things I have not tried were:

- Wiping all the partitions (https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=83713173&postcount=8). The instructions were a bit vague I'm afraid to try it without the full context of the fastboot commands.

I'm at a loss. Based on my research, the recovery rom should have fixed the problem, but it didn't, so I don't know what the cause of the bootloop problem is.

I hope the community could help me.

=== UPDATE ===

I managed to fix the issue by using this method -> https://xdaforums.com/k20-pro/development/rom-lineageos-17-0-t3976469

I strictly followed the steps under the instruction part and, viola! The phone manages to reach the setup screen of Lineage OS.

I hope this helps!

Thanks,

Temberness

Hiya ladies & gentlemen,

Ok, yesterday I installed with WM5 Fix .cab and converted my tones into .wav. Now my phone rings within or JUST after the first ring on the calling phone. But my problem is the playback sounds slightly jerky and not fluent. Any ideas?

For FIX look here:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=258109

Just install the .cab from the first post and ignore the rest and convert tones to .wav. I use mediacoder available free. :)

Works 100%
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] NeoXTC:
yup works like a charm. I do notice it first "stuter" about the first .5 of a second though (like the program loading it) but after that plays fine.

I wonder if this drains battery or not as in the post it says leave the program dormant in the background or something like that.

I'm just happy doesn't have to wait 3 rings anymore before the phone actually makes a sound :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] m00moo:
not too sure if it drains battery but it does work and i rather not miss those phone calls.

I've noticed the slight jutter in the first second also. I tried converting my .wav into a smaller file which helped but even the smallest of files it still exists.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] _JuSteR_:
tested and working, but sound isn't fluid.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] liamhere:
i use this on all roms i have flashed

yes it does stutter for 0.5 of a second

but then you don't miss anymore calls
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] MRE-net:
What happens if you convert your ringtone to .wma ? Or can this tweak only be used with.wav files ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] liamhere:
i belive wma will work the same as a wav.....

i am sure i read that on here
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Blazeitup123:
yes, its quite specific about wav. it must be wav. but who knows? its worth a try.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] HertogJanNL:
I don't need the .wav files in the .cab in this thread. I only need to know how to fix the delay.

Are the registry changes in the .cab the same as the ones available in, for example, Diamond Tweak or this registry tweak? If so: it doesn't work, only with default WM dialer and I hate that thing. Or rather: I like my slide-to-answer TF3D dialer :)

Hey all,

I'm about to start developing an open source project for managing android devices from a Linux machine.

Technology stack is going to be;

Symfony (5.1 / PHP 7.4)

VueJs 2.* (ECMAScript 6 / TypeScript/ Buefy)

I'm still setting up the architecture for the backend and yet to begin on the frontend. For the frontend I've got a prebuily VueJs codebase I can use for the frontend architecture

Preliminary road map

Devices details

File manage

Screen interaction (Screenshot, record, touch control)

APK manager

Root / Fastboot tools

Where possible (at least in the beginning) I was to avoid functionality that is specific to devices and custom roms.

If you interested in getting involved drop me a reply on here. Eventually looking to distribute this over APT so would be really good for someone looking to add to or start there portfolio.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] patensas:
Hi there,

Does any of you know a safe way ( online seller ) to import a Note 20 Ultra 5G ( snapdragon ) to the Netherlands. And if there's a "safe way" to do this would I run into trouble on the Dutch cellular network bands?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] destz0r:
I'm from Belgium. I ordered the Note20 snapdragon from t-dimension. Received it 9days later without any additional import taxes. Phone works well on the Belgian bands.

So I guess NL is gonna be fine as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] tdodd:
I'm in the UK and also bought from T-Dimension. This was my first purchase with them and everything went to plan, but it took nine calendar days from order on Monday to receipt on Wednesday the following week. Two days of delay were due to security checks, for me to provide proof of ID and address. Good price, even better now, and everything sealed and correct.

In the UK we have four primary network providers. Two of the networks make use of Band 32, which the N9860 does not include. It's a supplementary band and its omission is not critical, especially as the band does not appear to be deployed anywhere near me, rather in central London while I'm on the outskirts and don't venture into town.

Mostly everything works including Google Pay, VoLTE and VoWiFi. Garmin Pay expects a Hong Kong payment card to be registered, so that's effectively useless in Europe, but no consequence since Google Pay works and that's what I've used in the past.

Firmware updates are a bit behind schedule. Even late in November the phone only has October security updates. Not a showstopper, but perhaps a hint of limited priority for this model.

The big concern, if it matters to you, might be 5G support. At face value, judging from the band's in the spec, you would imagine 5G to be no problem. Many have found the Three network to be well supported by the phone in the UK, including me. Vodafone 5G looks a bit sketchy in my limited testing. I've seen the 5G symbol appear on the phone, but nPerf did not identify a 5G service from Vodafone, whereas it did for Three. Regarding 5G on EE I have only ever seen remarks that it does not work. I have seen no comments about 5G on O2 (well, maybe one, and it was a "No" I think).

You'll have to do your own research on bands for the Netherlands and see if the match is good enough for you.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] redhonker:
Hi,

I'm trying to install sound package which has ringtones and notifications. The files are ogg format.

I figured out how to install notifications. I have to use the built-in Samsung My Files to copy them into the Notifications folder. Then it will be picked up by the phone and I can see them in Settings notification list

However, I can't get the ringtones to show up in Settings ringtone list. I can use the plus button to choose, which shows all notifications as well.

What's the trick to install ringtones on S10?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] MoshPuiu:
Just copy ringtones into the folder Ringtones! If the folder doesn't exists, make it!
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] redhonker:
I already did it twice, once with My Files. However, they don't show up in Settings -> Sound -> Ringtones. Instead, I'd have to click on + sign at the top and choose folder.

Does it require a folder structure inside Ringtones folder?

Thanks

Unfortunately, it happens to me all the times I've manually placed files into the Ringtones folder, even on internal storage not external SD. What I found worked reboot many times or use media scanner to refresh

Anyone have on they can recommend? Do they all work or are there certain things to look out for?
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] ColdFyre33:
As with many things created, there are worse and better ones. Usually, the more expensive the better. Look for one with these specs: 384khz-32bit. You may not have music which can utilize that spec but generally, this cable will be of higher quality than cables spec'd with lower values such as 192khz-24bit. If you're shopping on "Nozama", your best bet is to look at the star ratings and how many people rate the cable. The more 5 and 4 star ratings, and more importantly, the less 1 star ratings, the higher the chances of the product being a great item. But I'm sure you already knew that. Let me know which cable you go with, I'm looking for one as well.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] pixelsquish:
There are many different ones to choose from, not only for quality of sound but also some may have a more neutral works signature, others may be more warm, etc...

There is a good thread at head-fi.org on this. But for starters, what kind of headphones will you be plugging into the dongle? And what is your music source?

I have pretty expensive iem so I splurged on a pretty good dongle. I mean it really depends.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] BJozi:
Thanks both of you for the tips. I went and got the one Google sells during the week.

I tend to use my Sony WH-1000XM3 most of the time. I just wanted something for occasional use of a pair of Blon BL03 I received earlier this year. It's more for convenience and to have the ability to use either when I want to.

As far as audiophile listening goes, I don't think either are to high up there.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] gd6noob:
I had to buy the original for it to work in my car and also the external mic. Google is pulling an Apple...

AS gar as i know only the ones following the usb-c standart with an integrated da converter work. Most really cheap Chinese ones are Just cable adapter. Because huwawei etc integrated the da into their phones. Which ist actually Not usb-c compliant.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] pixelsquish:
I find the stock Google one to be terrible and does not output enough volume. There are definitely better options but they are far more than 10 bucks.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] zurhuho:
Don't waste your money for others
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] TonyApuzzo:
The Tempotec Sonata HD Pro is super high quality for the price, if you can live with its form-factor. Because this dongle is a small metal box and not an inline cable adapter, I wouldn't use it while walking around or working out. For desktop / bedside / airplane kind of use it is great. It's available from Amazon for < $40 and probably from other sellers as well.

If you need to use the headphones while your phone is in your pocket and you're walking around, one of the best inline dongles is actually Apple's USB-C Audio Adapter. Note that the Apple dongle has a fairly low maximum volume when used on Android phones, so if you buy one make sure you can return it. Review here: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/...pple-vs-google-usb-c-headphone-adapters.5541/
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] RBEmerson:
In addition to the Pixel 5-only dongle problem, I have a second requirement. My Samsung S7 has, of course, a 3.5 mm socket - no dongle needed. Which means, and this one matters, I can use an external bettery pack to keep the phone going and still usable at the end of the day.

Does any P5 dongle meet this requirement, too?

I looked at the Tempotec review and discussion. There's a comment about a microUSB socket on the dongle. I'm waiting for my application for access to Head-fi to come through.

In the meantime, does anyone know of a dongle that also allows charging the P5 while a headphone dongle is attached?
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] Grep_The_Truth:
I am using this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B097ZMZGDQ

It allows me to charge the device while listening to music. I use it to connect to a boombox that supplies power to the device. The boombox is not a Hi-Fi device so I don't need a fancy external DAC. This one sounds fine on the boombox. Great for any old device that doesn't have Bluetooth.
[Google Pixel 5 Accessories] YorikR32:
