Redmi Note 9 Pro : I've had a lot of cell phones, but only on my Redmi Note 9 Pro does the following happen:

Miui 12 has a function "Automatically on/off speaker ...". But this only works with "talkback". For generations of mobile phones there have been extra programs for this function that either run separately or are built into audio recorders or phone apps. However, these apps do not work on my Remi 9. That was the reason why I rooted the device. However, there was no change. The rooting process had no effect. E.g. I would like to send an SMS to myself using "AutomateIt" when I receive an email. - But it doesn't work either. AI asks for permission to read emails. I give permission. Everything looks well, but if I check the permissions under "additional permissions" afterwards, no permission has been granted.

First I thought it was due to AI - but I think it is due to Redmi n9: I tried to rename any file in the root - e.g. "media / mybootanimation.zip". A message appears that this cannot be carried out. Whereby it doesn't work with multiple explorers. If I change the rights of the file to "755", that doesn't work either.

Accordingly, there is generally a write block.

Can someone tell me what to do to make this work?

you'll have to pay a few shekels to have it done before rooting is possible, so far anyway...
[General Questions and Answers] graham_uk:
I have an old device, a nexus 10....yes there are some of us still using these :)

I am currently using a Lineage 16 ROM which is having security updates regularlly released. This is a big plus, but comes with drawbacks, namely a lot of hardware stuff doesnt work, the tablet runs hot doing basic tasks and performance is very slow. I would like to run an older ROM more suited to the hardware, but the security patch on some of these goes back to 2015 and rings alarm bells!

My use case is simple, browse and view YouTube videos via Adblock browser (gets rid of annoying adverts), run some games and apps from the play store. Some minimal web browsing.

Simply, what is the risk of using older ROMS? Can you mitigate the risk by 'not browsing'? is being online in itself an issue? Do you avoid having root access if your on an old device? I know next to nothing on this area so would appreciate advice.

Thanks

Graham
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 1890170:
IMO any browser, especially its extensions, can be thought of as suspicious software. :)
[General Questions and Answers] graham_uk:
Thanks for the answer...so in short its a bad idea to run the older ROMS from a security perspective, regardless of use case.
[General Questions and Answers] chuy19312:
Well, it depends on what you use the phone/tablet, if you use it for the simple things (calls, videos, music, etc.) you can use older android version roms, alternatively you can use build.prop tweaks and scripts like v6 supercharger for android, you can try these build.prop tweaks i use on an HTC One M8 (2 GB RAM) and an Moto G 2014 (Titan, 1 GB RAM)

I think my useage will be as far as watching YouTube videos and adjusting my fantast league team through the Ad block browser. Probably some games i own as well.

Build prop tweeks? this is a new term to me, given the hardware you are using and some of the things im reading in the script this this will help with running newer ROMS on the older hardware by tweaking th install (i know thats gotta be the wrong word, im basically noob lol!)
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
I've used old unpatched Android OSs for years on devices without root with only minor issues.

No forced reloads due to infections.

A malware jpeg gave me trouble once but caught it at the get go; it did some damage to the files of the folder it was in but was contained.

Keep a close lookout for abnormal behavior and act quickly if found.

A good firewall is a very useful tool; been using Karma Firewall, which uses very little battery and runs well.

Had a Malwarebytes scan pick off a nasty trojan preloader that auto downloaded it's self too. The free Malwarebytes can occasionally be a useful app.

Always keep email in the cloud, be wary of all downloads, especially of side loading apks and know the OS's vulnerabilities/lock it down as much as possible.

Just be ready to do a no warning reload if things go south*... and no big deal. Keep time staggered backups on multiple physically isolated hdds.

*pre Pie OSs may get a rootkit that will force you to reflash the firmware to eradicate it. So there's that.
[General Questions and Answers] chuy19312:
Build.prop tweaks are some tweaks like the ones that i put on my comment to improve performance, battery or modify things,build.prop is an file located on /system (/system/system on android 10 or higher when using TWRP), i will give you instructions to modify it on pc with notepad++

1. Go to system folder using TWRP or apps like root explorer, then copy build.prop to your sd card or internal storage

2. Connect your phone to your computer, and put your build.prop file to any place, i recommend to documents, then download and install notepad++

3. Edit build.prop file using notepad++, add tweaks i gave to you at the end of your build.prop file, add an empty line at the end of the file if there is no one to prevent errors

4. Save it

5. Put it again in your phone

6. Rename your build.prop file on system to build.bak, so you will have an backup in case things go bad or you get in an bootloop

7. Paste your modified build.prop file on system

On root explorer, you only paste your file on system and give permissions like this

RR

R

R

and restart your phone

On TWRP, after putting it into system, go to system and press on build.prop file, press on chmod and on value put 0644, then reboot your phone

So firstly, to @jwoegerbauer @chuy19312 @blackhawk

Thankyou for responsing to my question. I am in every way new to working with modified ROMS and having these working with old but still viable hardware. It gives confidence knowing that it is not a complete loss if i am running old hardware and thus ROMs on them. I am going to give the prop.tweak a go and see how i get on (really appreciate the detailed instructions Chuy19312) , at least i have a fall back position of using an older ROM given Blackhawks experiences.

[Magisk] NickEspo:
I'm asking for help because this has happened for two months now, and I'm wondering if the process has changed with the new unified Magisk.

The March Android 11 update has been posted, so -- just as I did in February::

1. On my computer, I

1a. Downloaded the factory image;

1b. Extracted the boot.img; and

1c. Sent it to my phone's Download folder.

2. On my phone, I

2a. Had Magisk "patch (the) selected file";

2b. Transferred the new patched boot image, magisk_patched_FKPSk.img, back to the computer; and

2c. Put the phone into fastboot mode.

3. Back on my computer, in adb, performed the "fastboot flash boot magisk_patched_FKPSk.img."

adb successfully flashed to boot_a, then I rebooted the phone. It rebooted surprisingly quickly.

Going into "System / Advanced / System Update," it still says

Android security update: January 5, 2021

So, what am I doing wrong? Should I force adb to flash to boot_b instead?

Thanks for any ideas!
[Magisk] Tulsadiver:
That doesn't have anything to do with Magisk. That's the firmware update you are on. If you want on a newer one you will to flash it. Then follow your previous steps. Magisk doesn't update your firmware for you.
[Magisk] NickEspo:
Ah. So then, if I understand correctly, the process is to unroot, sideload the OTA image (not just flash the factory image's boot.img file) via adb, and then perform the above steps to re-root?
[Magisk] Tulsadiver:
Yes, though I normally fastboot the factory images rather than sideload an ota. That update process will lose root, then you patch the boot.img and fastboot it to regain root. I would recommend removing all modules prior to updating as they will survive the update process (unless you wipe) and if not compatible with your update, will bootloop you once you root again.

Hi. Its a solution of our problem.

CONGRATULATIONS!

For first, you need Edl. Second need a flash on QFill for this device.

Edl mode: for pixel existing single way to get edl. And best (easy) of this is :

1 disassemble device

2 find a memory chip

3 in this chip find contact data0 or (I don't remember else)

4 short to ground and push power button.

Congratulations you in edl mode

Now you need a firmware (its is not habitual firmware, can say its a folder with file)

Find it in Google,

Connect pixel to PC, download and install QFill,

Flash IT

If you can't find firmware for QFILL, (it is secret information) go to service, and ask to help you. Maybe hi can to make DUMP for memory chip of worked pixel.

Finding a solution to this problem was incredibly difficult. I had to collect nuggets of information all over the internet.

Please support me. So that I can continue to supplement this topic.

when installing the beta os 12, now having problems.

My pixel 3XL always restarts over and over again, then I try to do a factory reset with the hope that my 3XL pixel returns to normal

which i did get into

1. Last recovery mode

2. wipe data / fctory reset

notification:

- Wiping data ...

Formating / data ...

Formating / metadata ...

Wiping Titan M ...

Wipe complete data.

after I rebort and the display menu when I want to start the pixel but there is a padlock image in the upper right corner, after connecting to WiFi and after "verify patern" but it keeps repeating and I can't log in with my Google account.

I also tried to bring your data from android phone, but it always repeats itself in the "verify patern" position and this makes me annoyed.

I downloaded OS OTA 09, 10, 11, and OS 12 Beta 1 and tried to flash the OS again in the android recovery menu - apply update from adb but what worked was only OS 12 Beta 1, but after I restarted there was no change at all.

what I want to ask:

1. Is this damage temporary or permanent?

2. Will the disease be cured later when there is an OS 12 Beta 2,3,4 update?

3. or have to wait for the Official OS 12 from google?
