oh, oh an error has occurred! : - /
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] jeryll:
sorry the right command is

fastboot boot recovery.img

don't worry, your recovery is flashed correctly
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] H0rdak:
Jeryll, you are my legendary hero !!!!

I am now in the OF directory and have the OS file in the directory. what do I have to consider !?

after the recovery a window opened that the adb drivers are not installed / incorrectly installed ?!
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] jeryll:
you don't need your PC anymore, flash RR custom ROM in OFOX recovery, reboot recovery, flash GAPPS (optional) and Magisk (optional), format data (yes) - all on your internal storage will be destroyed, so backup your photos, medias, etc. before you do that format, once more reboot recovery and finally reboot system and if all goes well, enjoy your new custom ROM
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] H0rdak:
thanks jeryll, I have now installed RR, but he did not give me the opportunity to wipe anything! After the restart, the OS file is no longer there and I'm still in REcovery!
[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] H0rdak:
okay, I have now rebooted into recovery now he gives me the option "wipe" what should be wiped? and then format?

[Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers] H0rdak:
Hello sorry that I only get in touch yesterday

everything went well and I am overwhelmed by the new possibilities of this ROM!

I would like to thank everyone and especially jeryll for your consistent and competent help !!!

Thanks alot!!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aydc:
I have many ideas for the today screen that no other developer is doing anything about, so I decided to start coding my own Windows Mobile applications. I downloaded the SDK and made a few very simple applications using Visual Basic.

My question is, can I develop today plugins using Visual Basic? Is there any example? All the examples in the SDK are written in VC++ and I'm quite rusty in any language but VB.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pananza:
There is a managed today screen framework over at CodePlex that lets you write today plugins in C# or VB.Net.

Get it here: http://www.codeplex.com/ManagedTodayScreen
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aydc:
Nice! Thanx....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Radakast:
is the Chome of 6.1 actually a plugin that manages nested plugins? Or is making a replacement home screen completely different than writing a plugin for Chome

Jan 2021 update for U1, suspicious

This security update is being praised all over for how awesome Samsung is for releasing it so quickly after the previous update. I got the previous update on Dec 22, and this came in on Jan 21. I blocked it, and will continue to do so until I know what is in it. I find no info out there that tells us what is in it, and there is plenty of reason to not trust big-tech anymore.

If anyone can provide a link to details about what is in this patch, that would be helpful.

How to block security updates:

adb shell

pm disable-user --user 0 com.sec.android.soagent

pm disable-user --user 0 com.wssyncmldm
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] ViruuZ:
So i accidentally updated my pixel firmware via official OTA update (security patch 5. january 2021). First i was scared of a bootloop but it all went fine and booted.

Of course my root is gone now, but i want to root it again. Bootloader is still unlocked. Does anyone know, if i can just flash the magist boot.img again and it will boot fine? Or is there a risk that maybe THIS will cause a bootloop?

Thanks!
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] sd_shadow:
You need to patch the new boot.img.
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] ViruuZ:
Thanks for reply! So i extract my current boot.img, but how to patch it?
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] sd_shadow:
Open Magisk manager app

Select install magisk

Select and Patch a File

Copy new patched boot.img to pc

Flash
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] ViruuZ:
well, was a bit hasty here. I knew i could patch it via magisk, but last time there already was a patched image given. How can i extract my boot.img without root now? Or is there maybe a given for the last update?
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] ViruuZ:
Found my current firmware, will extract it there. Thanks anyway! :)
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] sd_shadow:
Normally you have to go to google firmware page and download it.

[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] hamooz92:
Are you guys having the SafetyNet passed?
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] xT29c:
No you don't. You only have to repatch the new boot image when a new major Android revision comes out. For example going from Android 11 to 12. I've updated my Pixel 5 every month a new update comes out. And I've always used the same boot.image file. No need to keep wasting your time patching that file. When you look through the OTA files you'll notice that none of those files in the zip file are a boot.image file. Meaning it doesn't touch it when it's doing the OTA.
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] hanni2301:
That is kind of useful, thank you for sharing. Can someone confirm this?
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] armourer1:
@hanni2301 Have you succeeded in getting root back ? I got the same problem today....
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] hanni2301:
Why do you ask me?

I always patch the actual boot.img out of the monthly factory image with magisk (beta or Canary) first and flash then the factory image, reboot, flash boot boot.img and afterwards the custom kernel.

@xT29c said that you can reuse ure patched boot.img from last month, as it changes only between different mayor Versions.

So you can save some time, but the process is still the same.
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] andybones:
IMO, yes, you should always patch the new boot.img from each months new factory image in Magisk when re-rooting.

Do you need to? i suppose that's up to you. However I think you should want to.

Essentially, you're missing out on any code changes/fixes, etc that Google may have added to the new months kernel.

~ Maybe an idea for a new thread to upload the Pixel 5 stock boot.img from each months new OTA, along with a Magisk patched boot.img. ~
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] leveleyed:
Same issue losing root. But when I try to open Magisk manager app, it says "upgrade to full Magisk Manager to finish the setup. Download and install?" I click "OK". But the next time I try to open it, it just keeps doing the same thing. :(
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] andybones:
I am not sure, but this may be because Magisk Manager is no longer..

get v22

New v22.0 update merges Magisk and Magisk Manager app

[General Questions and Answers] kelumsd:
Hello everyone!

I'm using an Xperia SP with ViperOS (Android 7.1.2) and wanted to patch Framework.jar with some smali files to port Xperia stock camera for AOSP. I successfully decompiled my classes.dex file which found within the framework.jar, and I replaced the necessary files in order to patch that framework which is in the attached file. (storagemanager.zip). But when recompiling with smali it gives me following error.

UNEXPECTED TOP-LEVEL EXCEPTION:
org.jf.util.ExceptionWithContext: Unsigned short value out of range: 65537

I tried with many smali.jar versions but no help. So I think to upload my classes.dex file and the files I need to replace with files after decompiling classes.dex. Files should be copied to android\os\storage which get after doing baksmali for classes.dex

If anyone can successfully patch my classes.dex I would really appreciate. :)

Thanks in advance (y)

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] psuarmy:
I was cleaning my Tilt and replacing the screen protector and used Clorox low streak disinfecting wipes to clean the screen and phone. I then had no touch screen. After my panic I let it sit and over time the touch ability came back. Also had the same problem with my wife's Treo, just not as bad.

Just in case anyone else would use some sort of wipe know this might happen

anyone have any idea why it happened?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] redbandana:
it is possible that some of the solution streamed underneath the screen along its border.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bilbobrian:
its best to use those small alcohol wipes, but power down the phone 1st, if any does get into the device it will evaporate really quick and not leave any residue.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] KenSoftTH:
As many of you requested, here you go.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dazed1:
Thanks alot! can you post night mode (not auto but longer exposure ones) of dark environment not just low light?

Also can you take a medium light shots with and without scene optimizer turned on?

Did you used touch to focus - then shot? and is it exynos or snapdragon?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] KenSoftTH:
I might do it if I have time.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dazed1:
Please check out the post again, i edited it :)
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] KenSoftTH:
I didn't use touch focus and it was taken on Exynos version.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dazed1:
Thanks! how would you rate your hand stability? some of the pics are blurred as if you accidently moved the phone maybe?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] KenSoftTH:
On DSLR, I must shoot with shutter speed no less than 1/100. Some photos were 5s explosure on telephoto lens, so expect some bluriness.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dazed1:
I'm sorry dude, i hope you don't get this wrong, i just want to make sure its the camera and not your hands, i just checked most of this photos, and most of them are blurry, so either this environment is much darker then it looks or maybe you didn't get the camera update that some units just now are receiving?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] KenSoftTH:
The environment is super dark, I would say photo look like 3-4 stop brighter than the actual place. Here is the setting I must use on DSLR to get the shot if you care about it. SS 1/100 f/1.8 ISO 6400. I already download and update 1 patch upon receiving the unit which has 1.0GB in size.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dazed1:
So if it so dark, how would you compare the photos with other phones? are they decent, good, great? next time just a suggestion, take few non night mode/regular shots if prompted for auto night mode turn it off if possible, that shot should be great for reference. Thanks for taking the time to answer :)
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] KenSoftTH:
Here is night shot vs pro mode pair.

Compared to S7, I would say it is much better, but S7 is 2017 era phone, so I don't think it's a good competitor.

Even pro mode looks 1 stop brighter than actual place.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dazed1:
Thanks dude! really appreciate it.

Please report back when you can on the scene optimizer.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] KenSoftTH:
The scene optimizer sends you to night mode upon turning on, so it's the same as using the night mode anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] dazed1:
Yes but i prefer to see medium to low light shot without night mode and no scene optimizer :)
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] mzsquared:
My Ultra 21is coming on Wedn., 27th, but check out this night shots video from down under - this phone camera rocks!
[Moto G7 Power Questions & Answers] marcoSolo:
Hey guys,

Some friends and I are having an issue that I can't find another thread for. We have completed the following:

Developer options, USB Debugging enabled and boot-loader unlocked.

In "Download Folder", which I'm viewing through the stock Google Files application, as well as Simple File Manager (F-Droid).

Mgisk-v21.4.zip

MagiskManager-v8.0.7.apk

Lineage-17.1-20210123 nightly.

I've tried several videos now, but all are saying pretty much the same thing from TWRP: Click install, go to your downloads folder (which appears within sdcard/Download), select Magisk zip file, swipe right to flash it. Simple right?

Problem1: From the TWRP Download folder (or it contents are not appearing within /sdcard or anywhere else.

Problem2: I cannot make a backup copy for restoration.

Bonus: Does anyone know how to boot strait into TWRP without using a PC? Its not that big of a problem, as long as I'm at home.

Thanks in advance for your help!
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Sharpshooterrr:
Looks the S21 has it's first big issue. Pink hues when looking at it even from a slight angle.

issue discussed at 12:59
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] YandereSan:
I have all three devices. No tinting issues as far as I can see on any of them. Guessing something was wrong with his demo unit.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Sharpshooterrr:
Okay, that's encouraging. Thanks for your feedback.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] l0vef0rey0u:
i comfirm pink tint issues. i get new one s21 ultra to day and go crazy because of this bloblem. demo device at store have this too. I will return it maybe. so sad. sorry for my bad english.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] superleeds27:
Could be down to display mode being on Vivid?

Not sure if he's using that or natural?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] l0vef0rey0u:
i try both on them. pink tint still there.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Sharpshooterrr:
Only when you look at the screen from an angle, right? No pink tint when you look straight on?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
Add to that under what light source if any are you viewing it?

Does it happen on all display frequencies?

View under incandescent, sunlight backlighted or in a dark room.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] l0vef0rey0u:
Yes. Just slightly tilt it and the pink tint appear. S21 and S21 plus no problem. Just S21 ultra, due to it’s 2k 120hz panel i think. No problem with S21 and s21+ Full hd+ panel.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] l0vef0rey0u:
Yes. All display mode and frequencies settings. And all invironment. I tried it in, out door and at phone store. Demo devices at store also have same pink tint problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
That's bizarre. May be a firmware issue for that variant or just a bad batch.

So much for Samsung QC...

Sounds like the red gamma is off.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] cheetah2k:
Looks to me like a rainbow effect on mine as I can see other colours in the band when i move the phone - its probably just the screen protector IMO
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] anaconda_bamn:
what is the software version on your s21? (settings - about - software info - last 3 baseband)

i have AUA3, and dont have any pink tint...
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] VICosPhi:
Pretty sure this is going to be a hardware flaw present in ALL S21 Ultra models and is either due to LTPO display they are using or the Victus glass. Note 20 Ultra has a similar problem where you get dirty whites when compared to Note 20 which has perfect whites.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] zarr112:
Software version AUA3 here. Pink tint very noticeable. US version. 😩
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] etc6849:
Same. I'm really disappointed. Got an Tab S7+, Tab S7, Watch3, and Buds Pro with the S21 Ultra 512GB... came to $1728 after tax and trading in my s20 ultra with combo savings.

Only thing keeping me from sending the S21 Ultra back right now.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] mhw100:
this helped mine
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] zarr112:
Other than that, the screen is amazing! I hope a future firmware update resolves the issue. 🙏
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Batfink33:
Got my s21 ultra today and there's a slight pink tint but it doesn't bother me, in fact I find it's much much better than my OnePlus 8pro which is a mess Have a look at the difference... The s21 ultra looks better in real life but the green tint on the 8pro is very visible in the dark. I had two and I sent the first back because of the green tint and the 2nd was exactly the same. I find the ultra display ahead of the 8pro.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] etc6849:
Really makes you think about reviewer integrity. I watched 6 reviews before pre-ordering, all of them raved about the camera and display, but never mentioned the color shift off axis.

The S20 Ultra screen is fabulous and noticeably better. Never noticed any color shift. Instantly noticed it on the S21 Ultra.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Batfink33:
I have no colour shift off axis and im OCD about displays so I'd see it if I did. The only thing I have is the slight pink tint at low brightness but as I said, the display on my Ultra is much better than my 8pro.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Tondern:
I find the only reviewer you can trust on screen quality is Erica Griffin, but as we know she's *very* selective about what she reviews and often takes a while to get them done. I watched so many reviews before buying the S20FE last autumn and the screen was a mess when i got it.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] eldrid:
I preordered mine and got it this weekend. Got the 512GB Exynos variant in the UK and can confirm the pink tint is present. Im coming from a note 9 and that didn't have this issue. Looked at them side by side to see and of my 3 Samsung devices i.e the note 9 tab s6 and s21 ultra both the tab s6 and the s21 ultra have this pink tint at certain angles its only visible when the background is white. Otherwise the phone is great, miss the notification led and normal fingerprint scanner from the note 9. Got a uv glass screen protector and now the fingerprint sensor doesnt work. Still thinking about sending it back and perhaps sticking with the note 9 and see what Samsung offers next year. Will decide in the next few days. Overall good phone but nothing mind blowing about it.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] 2015Ducatimulti:
US unlocked model S21 Ultra 512gb snap dragon and no pink tint for me!
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] mhw100:
I wonder if it's present on all panels and only being noticed by some people in certain lighting conditions. It's more subtle on mine after the update
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Sharpshooterrr:
Turning down Red a few notches is in the advanced display settings seem to somehow help in reducing the pink shift problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] mhw100:
I replaced mine. No pink.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Sharpshooterrr:
No new messages or threads about this. I guess the issue is finally resolved, at least in newer batches of phones.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] art612:
Dial *#15987# click on 3 or even 4 and exit. Then adjust screen as you see fit. UPD. No go. Worked in previous versions but not anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Limeybastard:
Lol and this was me concerned about green tint. In all my Samsung devices I turn the red calibration down to 70 to 80% . The pink tints been a thing for years, some devices have it more than others due to tolerance levels I guess.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
Is it red tinted or oversaturation? Red and green notice first many times. If I use the vivid mode instead of natural mode on the 10+ it oversaturates everything. Otherwise the color rendering is near spot on... well close enough🤣

Color calibration has always been a huge Android weak point.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Limeybastard:
I dont know, Im just going by what my eyes whisper to me.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
The human eye is notorious inaccurate at color calibration. Unfortunately Spyder doesn't support Android.

As long as you don't try to edit photos and such it's not a huge issue... unless it annoys you.

Samsung's usually rank pretty good right out of the box.

At one point I was increasing the red band slightly on the 10+ but it proved more irritating to do than have to look at.

Android doesn't provide for color temperature adjustment which annoys me.

With the blue filter on... who cares anyway?🤣
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Limeybastard:
Indeed, I bought a midrange TV once ( high end in my mind LOL ) and it drove me nuts trying to "calibrate " it. In the end I returned it for sanity sake.🥳
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
Most people have average color perception. Literally they don't see what a much smaller percentage I think it's 2 or 3% do. I can see good paint blends on car repairs most miss. Therefore I know if I can barely detect it, most will not notice it.

Maybe that's what the manufacturers are banking on🤣
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Limeybastard:
Paint blends on car repairs you say? Lets not go there. That would have been long conversation over bottle of Jack the days I used to drink.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Limeybastard:
Yep. Got mine today, build date May 5th and it's a nuisance as I have this issue also. Returning it. Can't be bothered with dealing with it. I'm a reasonable person and expect a slight color shift at angles ,but unless I'm vewing the screen at anything less that perpendicular then the tint is present. My 383$ Samsung M51 didn't do this. So it's unacceptable.

Same old cliche, not many of those YouTubers mention this do they? But I guess they are the ones that are gifted the device by Samsung USA for a favourable review.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
Look at all the glowing Fold2 reviews🤣
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Limeybastard:
It appears the more expensive the item is given as gratis the better the reviews? 🤣🤣🤣
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Limeybastard:
Just finished printing my return label. Took another video before resetting it. PS, this occurs also in a daylight. So me taking a video of it in a dark room just allowed me to get my image and point across easier. Since I don’t have pro camera equipment to use.
