No one uses the magnetic strip anymore!!

the chip cant be damaged by magnetic fields.

The magnetic fields are very low strength, so shouldn't damage anything anyway

My money is on the magnet for the stylus causing havoc with your Credit Cards
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] loomx:
The diamonds antenna is also in the lower part of the phone.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] lude219:
it's not rocket science, guys.

Put your credit cards in your damn wallet. Even if you dont carry a traditional wallet, use those money clip.

Better yet, put your money/keys/trash on one pocket, your Diamond on the other pocket.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Thom4s:
i have destroted the magnetic strip of my banc card with a fairly strong magnet, the card still functions in applicatons using the chip however the atm does not accept my card anymore, i cant insert uy in the slot because the lock stays closed because it firat checks for magnetic information before it opens the lock. normal payments inn shoos that use just the chip still work

i think mythbusters got this wrong because i erased the data with a simple anti theft stoplock magnet
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] cozzykim:
Hmmm, interesting, I would tend to agree with Rumpleforeskin/Mugglesquop on this one.

I work with BIG (up to 8MW) inverters for melting metal. They radiate VERY large electric and magnetic fields both from the furnace coils and from the chokes and transformers. I carry my Ignito and credit cards in my pockets most of the time around these machines and my cards usually get the strip physically rubbed off before they stop working.

The magnetic and electric field strengths decay very rapidly with distance anyway and I think you would have to wipe the stylus along the magnetic strip repeatedly at very close range to have any effect IMO. The method of erasing cassette tape (which is similar to the strip) is to apply a strong alternating mag field (~60kHz if I remember right) directly to the tape with the erase head designed specifically to have the correct gap to flip the magnetic particles in the tape. (granted, some cheap cassette recorders do manage to do it with a permanent magnet )

You have to have a VERY strong and changing field to affect magnetic strip at a distance, for instance one of the places I go to smelts aluminium and the conductors (at ~3V) carry around 100kA D.C. - That will wipe your cards, stop your watch (permanently), stop your pacemaker at a range of a few feet/meters.

I.O.W. I reckon you'd be very unlucky to do it with the magnet or radio in a Diamond, more likely that putting the card repeatedly in and out of the wallet has rubbed the surface of the strip really thin :D

Of course, someone may know better ;)

[General Questions and Answers] bfox89:
So, my devices "stock firmware" supports VoLTE (android 6). Most of the ROMs that i have seen for my device (android 7.1 based) dosen't support VoLTE. After some digging in the internet, i found out that IMS is VoLTE and VoWIFI. So i copy-pasted the apks that have "IMS" in front of them ,from my stock firmware to custom rom, doubled-checked the permissions, and rebooted my phone. VoLTE didn't work. The secret code says "VoLTE Provisioned". Am i missing something? Or am i completely wrong about this thing? The manufacturer is samsung, if that helps in a way.
[General Questions and Answers] Bhanu8082:
it is just that volte is not supported in stock android. if you are using lineage os 14.1 then volte will break.

thank fully if ril is working in your port rom then just register play service id from playstore to google android device certification. and thus ril and volte will start working.
[General Questions and Answers] bfox89:
Thanks for the reply!

So by ril, you mean libril, right?

So if i copy libril from my stock firnware to the custom rom, will it work?
[General Questions and Answers] Bhanu8082:
simple answer no, and

volte will not work in aosp android

but who cares every thing is possible so here is permanent fix just follow instructions carefully

If that would be,

It would be really great if somebody could figured out to push through the idea of having more than 30.53 to the extends of it, or somehow make it,bigger, or if its posible to transfer the ramdisk or pagepool or a part of it to the storage memory,and that would be very cool and useful,
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] Maggy:
Yes, that would be cool if it would be possible. But it's not. Storage is located in flash ROM, page pool and ramdisk are in RAM. Physically totally different types of hardware. Adding address space of one to the other is a kind of magic similar to turning a frog into a handsome prince. forget it

Hey, thanks a lot for that ken442266 !

I have 2 questions:

* Does it work if I updated my Xperia 5 ii with Android 11 ?

* When you write SD card isn't recognized, is it whatever possible to backup a rom backup from internal memory?

* Is it possible, with OrangeFox recovery, to root your Xperia 5 ii with Magisk onto Android 11 stock rom?

Thanks a lot for your help,

Yoannjap
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Jayram2000:
Hi Yoannjap,

I can answer all three of these from my personal experience.

1. This works for me on Ken's Pixel Experience 11 Rom, which is android 11 based. However, it is using an android 10 vendor as a basis. I have yet to test it over Android 11 from stock.

2. You can do backups to internal storage, my SD card doesn't work yet and I was able to do that just fine.

3. Magisk should be flashable, but Magisk currently doesn't work with Stock android 11. I have it working with Pixel Experience 11 however.

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] nrage23:
No root method available that I know about. The Z fold 2 will have very little if any developer support. It costs way too much and will be very few devices in the wild compared to any other phone. Unlike the original Fold all Z Fold 2's are Snapdragon based. With most Samsung phones there is a worldwide Exynos version and North American based Snapdragon version. The Samsung Exynos phones have an unlockable bootloader the Snapdragon Devices do not.

Update:

Apparently the same paid service that can unlock the Note 20 Ultra can unlock the Z Fold 2.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Javic1106:
Hello, somehow I can't post in the Q + A forum so I'll try my luck here

I bought a broken GT-N8020 a few years ago (bricked / stuck on boot). I made several attempts to get the device working again, one of which replaced the manufacturer's logo with a white static screen. Since I didn't know if I could save the device at all, I ignored it at the time and tried other fixes.

I now have a lineage rom running on the device, but the first screen after switching on. (should be "Samsung") is still white. After a few seconds it switches to the normal lineage boot animation and starts normally.

Can someone tell me what file I destroyed back then and how I can get the screen back to the manufacturer's logo?
