Help will be apriciated thanks
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
There might be something wrong with that particular Cingular sim card. I would check it out and possible get a new sim card from Cingular.
[HTC Excalibur] tuppaacc:
My brothers has an old cingular sim card and I just purchase a new sim card from cingular and stays on searching...:o

Have you tryed another network sim "apart from cingular" to make sure your phone is sim unlocked?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Xentiran:
As the title describes, I did the probably not so smart and I tried updating Magisk from within the Magisk Manager and now I cant get out of the loop of it returning to "Downloading...".

I was using Magisk Manager 21.4 and when I tried running the uninstall Magisk zip file within TWRP, it fails cause of something in accordance to the SD card (probably where its running from) or something.

Edit: I figured it out, it does not recognize the contents of the zip files as a bootable image anymore

Now im not sure how im suppose to follow the guide from here: https://magiskmanager.com/uninstall-magisk

Do any of you have a suggestion that does require me to completely re-root my phone?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Xentiran:
Im not sure how to remove this thread, but the issue is resolved and I probably posted it in the wrong forum place any way.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] onurdz:
How did you resolve the problem. I'm having the same issue right now. Did you simply uninstall Magisk?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] kudo77:
Hi @onurdz I faced the same. I solved it by removing the App, rebooting, installing the App v8.0.3 , updating the App to v22.1, and then the option to update Magisk appeared.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] AntonGut:
Thanks a lot for posting it here! I came here looking for solution for the same, without even realizing it might be caused by Magisk - update and reboot happened a good while apart.

I tried looking but couldn't find - is it a known issue with magisk, and is there a fix (in work) to solve it without removing or rolling back magisk?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] AntonGut:
Now I'm confused.

My phone wouldn't start. It's either "downloading", or TWRP.

I'm trying to uninstall magisk, by downloading the app, renaming it into uninstall.zip and installing in twrp.

It fails with an error. Not sure it's same, it says to me "unsupported/unknown image format"
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] speedson:
Hi...

first...there is a Magisk Zip file you can use to uninstall with TWRP.

sec...you can flash the Stock Boot.img into boot partion

third...you can recover boot image from a backup

yeah im sure that every option will bring success :)

solong

speedson🤘🙃🤘

to unbrick a samsung just download the Stock firmware by using Frija tool and start the into download-mode

then use Odin3 to flash the stock rom and restart into System...thats all :)

Thanks in advice
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] tjsooley:
It will work fine as long as the following is true.

1) The device is sim unlocked

2) The QUALLCOMM chipset supports the network bands your carrier supports.

If your on Verizon in the us and traveling to Europe as long as you have the proper international service package on your phone you should not have issues for 2g and 3g, LTE should mostly works fine 5g may.

[Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Razinal:
A Big Hello to Everyone!

I just want to root my RN8P that has an unlocked bootloader and MIUI 12.0.6 on it.

Do I need to follow the megathread all the way to CFWv2 (Or can I use v4 ?) Installation?

If I can, Is my understanding of steps as below correct?

Downgrade to MIUI A9, Flash Preloader/LK, Flash LR-Team Recovery, Boot into recovery, Wipe system/cache/dalvik, Install CFWv2, Install V12.0.6.0.QGGMIXM from Recovery, Format data, Reboot to bootloader, Flash CFW Recovery (OrangeFox any good?), Reboot to CFW-Recovery, Install Magisk, Done?

If I can't have root+recovery+miui 12.0.6 together which A11 Rom and recovery is most stable currently.

Thanks for your help.

EDIT: BTW, what's Unified TWRP/OrangeFOX in begonia-oss?

EDIT2: Wait a minute can i just use boot.img from miui 12.0.6 rom and patch it w/ magisk app itself then flash that patched boot.img?
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Razinal:
The Correct Way to Root MIUI 12.0.6 I've found out to be as follows:

0. Unlock Bootloader

1. Extract vbmeta.img and boot.img from ROM's zip file

2. Enable USB Debugging

3. Enter Fastboot Mode

4. Connect to PC and Use "fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img" to disable Boot Verification.

5. Reboot into phone and Patch your boot.img using Magisk

6. Reboot into Fastboot and Use "fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img"

7. Reboot and Enjoy Root.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers] kekesed97:
Correct. But since you have closed your VBMeta, why don't you enjoy custom recovery as well?

Flashing non-CFW build of any recovery will work (I've used "OrangeFox-R11.0_5-Unified-begonia.img" from that oss folder, but it seems they have erased the file). But now I'm in v12.0.7. Decryption didn't work anymore since the vanilla kernel is updated.

Press vol up while excecuting reboot command, and you should boot to recovery.

But updating will be a pain in the ass, as you would need to restore vanilla to your device, then install update via miflashpro-recovery mode (just restoring boot, recovery, vbmeta isn't enough to make internal updater work, but don't go 12.0.7 anyway)

[Mogul, XV6800 General] medrobotics:
Hello,

I just got a Mogul, and I am pretty new. I hope you guys help me out a bit.

After upgrading the ROM to WM6.1, I did a hard reset and during the "3 second customization" message, I did the soft reset.

So, after the dust settled, I took a look at the programs installed, and it seems that most of the junk is gone except Sprint Music.

(I did another set of hard reset+soft reset just to make sure that I am not messing things up)

I took a look at the Extended_Rom using the Total Commander...it seems to have some cabs, but I am a bit wary to delete any of them.

I saw some guides online (including the one in this forum), but I have no idea why Sprint Music is still installed.

Also, this new reset does not help me with the RAM... still around 51+% on boot up.

Any ideas?
[Mogul, XV6800 General] frazell:
If you don't like the Sprint stuff load up a custom ROM like DCD or another. Look around on here with a search or on PPCGeeks for alternatives.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] Quiksmage:
You should know now that your ram will never be that great on the mogul, that is unless no2chems release will be awesome and stable on release with the 30 megs of ram =D. DCD's rom will leave you with 25 on boot, which is still pretty lack luster. I feel i should have bought the palm treo 800w when i had the choice for the extra ram, or the HTC touch, OR wait on the HTC diamond.

[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] mohsinulhaq:
Hi, I recently tried flashing the OnePlus Open Beta 3 from the official website. But I did the mistake of not backing my data. The phone went into bootloop (https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/...eason-adb-pull-mnt-vender-op2-rbr_log.1388441).

Then as suggested in the comments, it asked to do `fastboot -w`, as it said it would just change the slot. But instead, it formatted `userdata` and now I have lost all my internal storage content. (But it did fix the bootloop).

Is there any way now to restore any part of that data?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] upncoming:
I've used an app called diskdigger in the past that worked well to recover deleted pics. It's available in the play store. Read the app description about using it with root vs. without. Without root, it can pretty much only scan through your cache and thumbnails. With root it can be much more through and can retrieve full size images.

I tried doing some searches before asking but I could not find a solution that worked for me so hear goes.

With the phone is tilted I can not see any of the letters I am typing on the input fields. This problem seems to be only related to Internet Explorer as I have skyfire and it works fine with that. Its as if the font color is white and so is the background color thus making the letters seem invisible on the input field. When the phone is not tilted there is no problem.

anyone have any clue what setting is causing this and how to fix it?

Hello everyone

I had bought a Huawei Mate 10 Pro in 2018 from Saudi Arabia. I am using the phone for the past 3 years and never had a glitch. Currently the battery is swollen and backup is poor. I tried contacting official Huawei service here in India, but they refused to help telling that the phone is not launched in India yet and asked me to contact Huawei Saudi . I can't go to Saudi to get a replacement battery and so it's impossible. I tried an unofficial battery manufactured by a 3rd party, but the performance was pathetic.

My phone is still in perfect condition and the performance is top notch. There is no reason to upgrade the phone except for the battery .

I need help from you guys regarding this. How can I get genuine replacement battery in India? I guess I am not the only person in India using this phone ! So what did you guys do when your battery got worn out?(Indian customers)

I got this tablet (lenovo tab 4 8 (tb-8504x)) from friend of a friend, who already was trying to install custom rom and recovery to this tablet. So I'm at the situation where I have no idea how bad this tablet has been messed up. At the moment I can open fastboot and twrp recovery.

- I flashed twrp from this thread and it's working

- I wiped cache, data and system from twrp

- I installed Lineage OS from first thread with adb sideload

- I also tried install Lineage OS with gapps nano

Result is that the Lineage OS wont boot and I has no recovery / stock images to this tablet.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Chris187A:
Hey!

I could need some help to narrow down the possible error sources and thus conclude if I should try to repair my phone or not.

Ath the end of the post is short video of the actual state (YouTube-Link).

Some quick details:

- no submersion in water

- no visible fall damage (always was in a Spigen Tough Armor Case, but I dropped it from time to time)

- no cracks on the screen itself, always used a screenprotector

- the problem developed gradually over the last 2 weeks: Only the lower half of the phone was affected, horizontal lines of different brightness appeared (also some flickering). This would disappear from time to time, sometimes linked to the manually changing of the screenbrightness

- now the lower half is completly black, but still responsive. Even that disappeared 2-3 times, but now it seems to be stuck in that mode

- additonally if you're out of the lockscreen the upper half goes black as well

- complete display is responsive

- USB-Debugging should be enabled

Things I've tried and didn't help: 1. Wiping of the Cache 2. Factory Reset 3. Safe Mode 4. Some suggested options mentioned in articles

What I am trying to figure out: Software or Hardware problem (Right now it seems like it must be Hardware) and which Hardware is affected and needs to be replaced.

Any help would be appreciated, but I know that no one has psychic abilities to look at/in my phone from a distance. So thanks anyway! :)
