[LineageOS Questions & Answers] leobassin:
I've been trying to install LineageOS 17.1 on my Samsung S9+ without any luck as RMM is stuck in Prenormal, no matter what I try (see here for details). From what Chimera told me and what I've read on gsmhosting, early 2020 Samsung introduced a new lock (Knox?) that leaves RMM in Prenormal no matter what one does. I'm not sure whether this is true, and I'm hoping it is not.

Now, I talked to the reseller I bought the S9 from, and for a fee he's willing to exchange my S9 updated to Android 10 to a new S9 with stock Android 8.

Will I then be able to install TWRP+LineageOS 15 on Android 8? Then if so, will I subsequently be able to upgrade to Lineage 16 (A9), then 17 (A10) without encountering RMM=Prenormal and being stuck again?

I keep seeing a lot of apps in the googleplay app store where devs have not been updating thier apps since 2019 or earlier, yet the store allows them to continue selling thier product. A few times i see an app i really like (icons mainly) and turns out there would be a lot of system apps created in 2020 that are not supported. They should have thier products removed until they are forced to update to the current timeline.

I just bought a used 3 month old AT&T Tilt for $300 and I have tried to unlock it with no luck. Can somebody please tell me what I am doing wrong.

This is what I got:

AT&T Tilt with Win 6.1, No other changes made to the phone that I'm aware of.

I downloaded "Kaiser-Simunlocker" from this site and followed the directions to the "T".

It all goes just as the instructions say until it is supposed to display the unlock code on my computer. The Window that is supposed to show me the unlock code won't stay open. It opens and instantly disappears... It doesn't stay open even a second so I can't read it.....

I'm not sure what is wrong or what I am doing wrong so I'm hoping (Praying) somebody here can walk me through this.

I would greatly appreciate any assistance somebody can offer.....

Thank you!

Jess
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Vampire2800:
The best thing you can do is call AT&T at this number..... (888) 892-9760 Tell them that you bought it used & you'd like the Subsidy Unlock Code for the phone. They're gonna ask you for the IMEI #. Dial *#06# before you call them & write that number down. That'll get you a really good start.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jessepatty:
I appreciate the reply however I already tried to get the code from AT&T....

They wouldn't give it to me. I had a hell of a time just getting to talk to somebody because I don't have an AT&T account.

[Android Apps and Games] Prof_Birch:
I've been working on my own assistant application framework for some time now, and I am coming up to a point where it is functional for an alpha release. There aren't really any other FOSS assistants on the market other than Mycroft, and I noticed that there is no development happening on Saiy/Utter!.

I've been developing it heavily using a Unix mentality which is meant to reduce the mental overhead when it comes to creating skills or new/replacement modules. I paid a lot of attention to the development of the framework so that individual components can be developed or replaced independently, allowing it to be more of a platform than a standalone application. This should also allow it to be easier to dive into individual parts of the application.

There is still a lot to go in terms of making it useful out of the box, but it's almost all there in back end, and I think I'm finishing up the concrete features and flags that it needs to operate with skills and modules that other users develop.

As it is right now, it does offline speech recognition using Vosk STT, and intent matching/entity extraction using the Stanford Core NLP library. I have it set up with a mock Calendar Skill to test its matching and finalize how I want it to interface with complex tasks. Currently it *WILL NOT COMPILE OR WORK* since I am still working out bugs on the alpha. When I am ready to release an actual alpha I'll branch the code, and I'll post/host nightlys somewhere (maybe also put it on F-Droid and Google Play).

I intend to interface it with Termux/Tasker, Google Assistant, Alexa, and Mycroft, as well as at a chatbot feature, but those are all secondary to the task of a stable working assistant/platform. I encourage feedback and questions about how it works and how it could be hacked on to do other things, so that I can write documentation that is as transparent and understandable as possible. Hopefully the code is a bit self documenting as well. I strive for readability over cunning.

FAQ

Q: TWRP can't mount data partition, what to do?

A: Make sure you formatted data partition.

Q: Phone is not booting even after 20 minutes

A: Try to reboot. If still not booting, make sure you flashed encryption disabler zip / formatted data partition.

Q: How to format data partition?

A:

Q: Phone is showing only Samsung logo

A: Try to reboot. If still not booting, consider installing a more recent firmware. If you still don't succeed, post here some details about your device and previous firmware and we might be able to help.

Q: Why do i need to format data partition?

A: Because old firmware encrypted your data partition and new rom can't decrypt and use that content / root needs access to data partition to place misc files / phone not booting after flashing root until data partition gets formatted.

Q: I can't flash anything with TWRP. Internal Storage has some random folders with weird name.

A: Format Data and flash encryption disabler.
[Samsung Galaxy M21 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] soulr344:
Info about custom super partition helper binary. (Irrelevant because of native logical partitions but yeah, its present)

It's meant to help with managing partitions inside the super partition itself. It has some functions built in like mount, unmount, flash and format. Here is a brief rundown on what each of them do.

Partitions that are supported are:

Please note that system_root is an alias of system and umount is an alias of unmount.

All of these commands are runnable through TWRP Terminal ONLY!

super mount partition

This will mount partition in rw mode in mountpoint in fstab.

super unmount[or umount] partition

This command will unmount given partition and make it read only.

super format partition

This command will format given partition as ext4 inside super partition.

super flash partition /path/to/image.img

Flashes image.img to partition.

You can also flash GSI (Generic System Image) using this command. Simply run:

super flash system /path/to/gsi.img

For Custom ROM Developers:

You can use this as an alternative to mount/format/unmount partitions that are inside super partition normally.

run_program("/sbin/super", "format", "system"); # formats system
run_program("/sbin/super", "mount", "system"); # mounts system as rw
run_program("/sbin/super", "unmount", "system"); # unmounts system and makes it ro

Hi soulr344, I absolutely love your TWRP for Galaxy M21 and the fact that I can wipe only system partition and just flash GSIs directly to system partition is awesome. [Its sad andro11 roms not yet available for Galaxy M21 but someday will come hopefully.]

I tried to flash your (soulr344 TWRP) to Redmi Note 10 Mojito/Sunny too and it did boot to your TWRP but I knew it would be full of bugs coz its not meant for RN10 Mojito/Sunny. Some of the issues I captured on camera have attached like MTP not working, Not able to mount some partitions, ADB Sideload not working etc. So, please dont get me wrong, its not your mistake by any means coz Nebrassy TWRP-2 already exists for this device (RN10 Mojito/Sunny) but Nebrassy-Twrp-2 not allowing to wipe system parttions etc ( so custom-rom needs to be flashed again each time system partition gets destroyed due to some reason which is a pain).

So can you please build (Soulr344-TWRP-Mojito/Sunny) for Xiaomi Redmi Note 10-Mojito/Sunny. Your TWRP already works like 30% on Mojito/Sunny so maybe if you put your magic touch on Mojito/Sunny too it might work 100% so users will have 2 TWRPs choices, one by Nebrassy & 2nd one by you. Please Soulr344 think about it ok. If you help us with new twrp for Mojito/Sunny we will donate 👍

i have "m21nnxx" codename, and this recovery is in "m21nsxx" will it work if i flash this?
[Samsung Galaxy M21 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] OldNoobOne:
Most likely it wont work because its a Tar file inside which is an Img file for m21nsxx, so its not in a flashable zip file format, if it was a flashable zip file then you could modify META.INF updater script then probably it would still work on m21nnxx.
[Samsung Galaxy M21 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ShadowMC74260:
what if i try flashing it, can i revert it back if something goes wrong??
[Samsung Galaxy M21 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] OldNoobOne:
If anything goes wrong you will have to flash the Stock boot.img again, so for that you might have to flash the Original Stock Firmware for m21nnxx using ODIN.

#Note - Put your phone in Download Mode then In ODIN, select BL, then select the BL Tar file from Stock Firmware, Under OPTIONS section Keep F.Reset Time & Auto Reboot 'ON' remaining all options checked 'OFF'. Then press START button to flash. Your phone should boot up like before.

Bro, just search for TWRP for your device m21nnxx :-/
