[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] onkelfeix:
Hi all,

I just bought an S20 as the sucessor for my shattered Note9, and found out that the touchscreen is reacting completely differrent.

For explanation, I have an app/widget named "counter ux" . Have placed the widgets on the homescreen, and everytime I tap on them, the counter does +1.

With my Note9 (Android 10, some custom rom - forgot which one, rooted with magisk) I can hammer on the screen as fast as possible and it counts as fast as I can tap.

Moved files+settings from the Note9 to my S20, everything seems to be the same but I can't tap that fast any longer. Any ideas on that?

Is that because of Android 11 (on the S20) or One UI 3.0 ( instead of 2.0?)

Anything I can do except Unlocking/Rooting/Customrom (for now I'd like to keep it vanilla)?
[General Questions and Answers] ajnabicancer:
My friend got a Samsung A50s 20 (MTK6580) by Vietnam. It's a clone/copy phone currently running S10 + clone firmware on it, which changed it's imei and serial. Recovery mode isn't working. Normal + Fastboot is fine.

I am not sure about phone original specification but its currently display 2 GB Ram and 32 GB Rom. Phone box only have Imei and model tag on it and includes a warranty and a guide sheet.

I am able to find it's stock ROM but it isn't free. Is it possible to find it's stock ROM/firmware or any other compatible ROM/Firmware suggestions.

I need help.

Thanks.

Is there any way to lock the camera app rotation in Android 6.0.1 without root?

Im using a couple of our old Galaxy Note 4 as video recorders for tutorials. I have them set up on booms. I have the phones rotation locked, but the camera orientation will still change. When Im needing straight down shots, the camera greatly favors portrait. Im constantly having to adjust the rig and slowing lock the rig into place. But after hitting stop, 9 times out of 10, it snaps back to portrait. Ive tried various lock rotation apps, but nothing works. Ive also looked at alternative Camera apps, but nothing works there either.

Here's the. . . .well. . . . you'll probably think this is obnoxious, but i MUST (subjectively speaking) have the phones as minimalist as possible. Obviously I can't activate the phones, and i do not want to sign into any google account. So, conventional means of updating are out. I came across something where if I could get to Android 10, I could go into development options and disable sensors. But still stuck on Android 6.0.1 and developer mode doesn't have that option. Updates keep showing up as being available, but despite going through about 7 updates, Android remains at 6.0.1.

Can anyone help me?
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] darkensx:
Hi i was wondering what region/stock Android 10 rom version would be best to flash prior to the lineage or similar ones for use on at&t? The LG v40 i have is v405ua but it doesn't look like there's a official 10 stock rom for it..🤨 i had cross flashed an at&t pie stock rom as it kept dropping calls I assume it was modem firmware. And yes bootloader is unlocked.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] AsItLies:
Well, a few things... 1st, if you want to use at&t as your carrier, then u have to have an at&t device / rom to be able to use vowifi (and I think volte). So, if you need those, then you have only one option, flash an at&t rom to your at&t device (they can verify if it's at&t by the imei number, so no, you can't take a sprint one and flash at&t rom).

2nd, lineage doesn't support vowifi nor volte. So for us in the states, this is a problem as the 3G netwroks disappear, you'll be unable to make a call without volte.

3rd, any stock 10 would work with (latest) lineage. Lineage doesn't need a 'specific' one to work, it just needs that OS level. There are older lineage builds that work with 9. Maybe check one of those to see if it meets your needs before doing more?

This looks to be it:

lolinet mirrors - firmware, software, iso etc.

lolinet mirrors - powered by h5ai

mirrors.lolinet.com

Edit: I can also report that bootloader unlocking and rooting with Magisk works without issue.
[Moto G Play (2021)] Omizuke:
Which one? My local T-Mo is offering this or a Moto E 2020. This one's winning. It'll be nice if it can be rooted. Just asking cause T-Mo hasn't been root/bootloader unlock friendly with most of its phones. I saw the E guide.
[Moto G Play (2021)] fddm:
Yes, this was with a T-Mobile phone. You unlock the bootloader, take boot.img from the lolinet link, patch it in Magisk, and flash through fastboot.
[Moto G Play (2021)] Omizuke:
Thanks so much for the info. How's the phone so far. My T-Mo has the promo but didn't actually had the phone >.>

They instead offered me a LG K51, not even close to the same phone. Wondering if its worth traveling around to other stores.
[Moto G Play (2021)] fddm:
Depends on the features your want, but I really don't have any complaints for this device. I have a friend that prefers devices with touch sensor swiping and dt2w, so he doesn't care much for these Motorola phones.

I prefer phones with good developer support and stock Android. Makes Moto phones an excellent fit for me. If you intend to run custom roms LG might be a poor choice as you generally loose features like VoLTE and VoWiFi.
[Moto G Play (2021)] Omizuke:
Think is I don't actually need a phone, I have a V20 and 40. But I do need internet for next month, for which I'll just get a simply prepaid for that month. (My T-Mo plan is a grandfathered from 10+ years ago that's only $20, doesn't include high speed internet) And I saw a promo that if you buy in advance 3 months you can get the G Play or a E 2020. And figured, need only 1 but 3 months of unlimited internet is also good, specially if I get an okay phone. But if I can't root it. It could be a $1k flagship and I wouldn't care. And Moto's near stock looks very apealing. V40 has Lineage but as you said would lose VoLTE.

Moto looks like phones that would allow me to tinker, I miss my old HTCs. There was so much ROM variety and customization. Now it's either OEM optimized, or all the CFW look the same, aesthetically speaking, they look so bland. Man now that our phones are more powerfull I'd like to see a Sense 3-4. Loved that layout, as heavy as it was.

Sorry went on rant there. Anyway, I'd just like if the phone can be thinker with. And can handle some light gaming like FFBE and the text be readable.
[Moto G Play (2021)] fddm:
Motorola phones are perfect for you then, I use them exclusively when tethering to a routers. Always easy to root. No dun restrictions in apn settings. All carrier spyware is in the product partition, easy to suss out and disable. Can't beat it.
[Moto G Play (2021)] Omizuke:
Damn I might end up setting for the E if I can't find the G play.
[Moto G Play (2021)] tbirdguy:
Confirming you can flash the RETUS (retail US) rom on the tmob variant and it works wit minimal bloat (facebook and the stock moto crap)
[Moto G Play (2021)] Omizuke:
Sweet! Thanks for the info, got mine the 8. Gonna wait the week and then start thinkiering with it.

And all bands and VoLTE work well? For my V40 I am limited what to flash if I don't wanna lose B71.

Still gotta deal with Carrier Device Manager, MCM Client and Mobile Installer? I disabled as much as I could without root, remove all permisions from those and "Digital Wllbeing" and McAfee and they're still pestering me. Specially MCM on the ntifications. Can't wait to root and get rid of everything. :P

But if crosflashing to RETUS can get rid of some of those I'll do that first.

(Well After I SIM unlock the phone, don't wanna have to deal with returning to stock for that)
[Moto G Play (2021)] fddm:
It's generally fine to (entirely) cross flash Moto phones. Only difference between carrier and RETUS is the product partition afaik, so I don't bother personally. I just use a Magisk module to clear out the nondisable folder and I can then disable whatever I don't want.

No, it shipped with 10, there isn't any firmware to downgrade to.
[Moto G Play (2021)] sd_shadow:
I'm guessing 11 isn't very far away.
[Moto G Play (2021)] tbirdguy:
I had swipe on fingerprint on g7power, worked good for pulling down notifications menu
[Moto G Play (2021)] Omizuke:
Oh the play does have swipe sensore for notifications. And although it doesn't have dt2w I just tap it to the side, any slide movement wake the screen and you can the swipe to unlock. It does wake up for the littlest for movements so it can get a bit annoying.
[Moto G Play (2021)] Lostbytes_xda:
That's the peek display. Can be turned off in Moto app.
[Moto G Play (2021)] Omizuke:
Oh I know, but it's the closest thing we get to a tap to wake. When on my desk I just nudge it with a finger or pen for a quick pick. Unfortunately, anything that rattles my room wake it too.
[Moto G Play (2021)] Lostbytes_xda:
Oh, ok. Took me a bit to find it myself till wife uses it. Now, I like it. Now, trying out the screen calls by Google assistant.
[Moto G Play (2021)] residentorca:
Thanks for sharing this. I have created the patched boot image and am ready to flash. Does this device have A/B partition for which the patched boot image needs to be flashed to both partitions? Or just single partition?
[Moto G Play (2021)] fddm:
It uses "boot_a", fastboot will default to it if you flash to "boot". A/B isn't really a concern with stock firmware and I always keep "boot_b" stock as a backup.
[Moto G Play (2021)] residentorca:
On my device, flashing to "boot" resulted in the patched image going to "boot_b". Upon rebooting, I could not access the lock screen (which may or may not have been related) so I reinstalled the stock OS and re-flashed the patched image to "boot_a", which worked. Thanks again for your help.
[Moto G Play (2021)] kjjay:
Any trick to carrier unlock this the phone quicker?
[Moto G Play (2021)] residentorca:
Which module did you use?
[Moto G Play (2021)] fddm:
I just make my own depending on what I need. This one disables nondisable, preinstall, tether provisioning, and system upgrades:

motocust.zip

drive.google.com

I'll usally add some google apps, modified apns-conf.xml, kernel modules, stuff like that. Magisk is really easy and powerful if you spend just a little time learning how to use it.
[Moto G Play (2021)] residentorca:
Thanks for sharing your custom mod and for the explanation!
[Moto G Play (2021)] residentorca:
Thanks again for sharing. I'm having issues trying to install your mod. In Magisk whan I navigate to your zip file and select it to install, nothing happens. The MD5 checksum of the zip file I'm trying to install is 78c6c276205501b417a7f8c3d8de115a.
[Moto G Play (2021)] fddm:
The result should never be nothing, even if you give Magisk a 0 byte zip file. It should always take you to the module installation screen where it prints the results of the install scripts and any error(s) encountered.

You are installing through Magisk(app) -> Modules(puzzle piece bottom right) -> "Install from storage" at the top, right?
[Moto G Play (2021)] residentorca:
Yes, that is correct. No installation screen appears after I select the zip file and when I return to the Magisk home tab, it does not show any additional module having been installed. I'm using the latest version of the Magisk app (v.22). I have Magisk Hide enabled to pass Safetynet check if that may be somehow relevant.
[Moto G Play (2021)] 706trades:
Perhaps. I have installed the module as well and had no issues, I was shown the install screen and it shows in magisk's modules list as normal. I did not activate magiskhide, nor did I edit magisk in any way before installation, for what that's worth.
[Moto G Play (2021)] residentorca:
I reinstalled the stock ROM, re-rooted and tried loading the custom module again. This time it worked.
[Moto G Play (2021)] HDDDesign:
Ok my friendsjust flashed recovery img witch was corrupt apparently..I'm in a bootloop..unlocked bootloader..I. in powershell..and in fastboot mode can not boot recovery..

Help y'all...thank you.

Neversettle
[Moto G Play (2021)] 706trades:
I'm no expert but I think all you need to do is use fastboot to piece-by-piece reflash the phone with stock firmware. You might can get away with only reflashing the part that screwed up, but this for sure should fix it unless someone can correct me.

Created my own .bat file with the servicefile.xml iside for easy double click flashing. (can share)

Still has Software Channel: T-Mobile

Even tho everywhere it says "guamna_retail"

Test everything was working.

Proceed to root using latest Magisk (22100 at the time) and that same boot.img on the folder.

Everything is working great so far or at least the things I could test.

All Bands, band 71 is a must on my area, VoLTE no problems. Haven't try anything Wi-Fi related, VoWIFI or MMS. I don't have home internet.

Hotspot work no prob. But I use PdaNet+ to avoide speed restrictions (T-Mo's 600 Kbps is ridiculous, give us 1-2 Mbps at least)

What else... The modules tested so far work, including App Systemizer, used it on a Fake GPS app, working well. And Debloater (Terminal Emulator) to remove system apps. My old TB 8.3.3 works for freezing apps, also tried back up, uninstall and restore and app and it worked. User app

Not happy with how much has been replace from proprietaries to Google apps. I always liked AOSP/Stock Android apps but not Google app.

Or how ridiculously aggressive they are. I had to freeze services because a game I've always used without "Google Play Games" wouldn't let me move pass the first screen without installing it. Something I just normally ignore/back out and move on. But it wouldn't let me. So I freeze (on TB) Play store and Services and was able to move on without even been asked. What fallowed was a truckload of notifications of how basically the entire phone won't work unless I enable Google Play services. Including Contacts, Messages and Calculator. Calculator like seriously, I need Google stalking my cal app to work? It was BS of course, I open cal and try 2+2 and it still equals 4, didn't try to tell me it was 5. I get stuff like GMail or Contacts Sync. But why must the contacts already on the phone had to magically disapear? This doesn't happens with my other phones, granted are much older. I'm now currently testing alternative to all those apps. I mean, I did re-enable them, was gonna anyway for those apps I understand are needed, and the sync/backup.

I miss when Android had stock ungoogle-apps that got replaced depending on what google apps you installed. Sad is I think Samsung is the only brand that still has propietary apps.

Praying for a LineageOS or similar.

Anyway, cross-flashing works with no issue. But only removed the T-Mo crap, but had a bunch of hidden apps for Metro, Spring and other Carriers that I didn't even knew existed. Just thought I'd share, in case anyone was curious.
[Moto G Play (2021)] haunteddevil619:
I am planning to flash the retail ROM version to T-Mo locked device. Will this also carrier unlock the device? If not, apart from getting rid of the bloatware, why would this be useful?

How would I SIM unlock my device after flashing retail ROM?
[Moto G Play (2021)] CADude:
Anybody do this on the AT&T variant? They are going for $50 on Walmart.
[Moto G Play (2021)] mario0318:
I suggest you edit out the IMEI on your post.

Regarding your issue, i think you'll have to do a manual flash of the stock partitions for system, recovery, and boot through ADB. I'm assuming you have the exact stock ROM zip downloaded. It can't be an older version, so in your case the file must be something like guamna-XT2093-3.QZAS30.Q4-39-57-2-2-1-1-3-3-default (or Retail or whichever carrier if you want as close a restoration to when you got your phone. As long as it's that same or newer versioning number sequence.

In case it helps anyone: My retail us (RETUS) phone bought from amazon was carrier unlocked but the "oem unlock" was greyed out. I had to go through motorola's online process to generate the key to unlock the bootloader through fastboot:

For some reason i can't access the site anymore? Could you try and see if you can still access it?
[Moto G Play (2021)] fddm:
I was getting some error a few days ago, and accessing through a VPN allowed it to load normally. It is up, so you might give that a try.
[Moto G Play (2021)] xFadedxShadow:
Can you do this even if you have a Ramdisk and use A/B Partitions and SAR?
[Moto G Play (2021)] fddm:
The requirements are an unlocked bootloader and a boot image to patch(or recovery if your boot image lacks a ramdisk).

Whether you patch with a recovery zip or manually patch with the app and flash, the outcome is the same. If magisk supports it, it will work.
