Having a problem with my SM-T520.

It was with Linage 1.41, followed the 1st post instructions ==> going back to stock, install recovery, but when I try to wipe Cache, it stops with error. Rebooting to recovery shows Cache partition as 0 MB (zero).

Any advice would be helpful.

Thanks.

Fixed.

Installed twrp-3.0.2-0, did the wipe, then upgraded recovery to twrp-3.2.3-0-n2awifi-v2 and then flashed the rom.

don't wipe cache, rather use format cache to ext4, wiping chache often gives mentioned error
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Original Android De] brk:
with twrp-3.0.2-0 works ok. Found in another topic that it is the last twrp that includes a fs from samsung
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Original Android De] bmwdroid:
It may not be necessary, but as I've had often problems after upgrading or even boot loops that vanished after a full wipe including "Format Data" I always recommend that to avoid problems.

On some devices it was even necessary to switch file system to and fro to be able to get a working system.

My steps when upgrading (hopping to a higher version):

1. backup EFS/Modem, System+boot and Data in 3 steps (makes it easier to determine incorrect files)

2. wipe caches, system, data,

3. "format data" additionally

4. flash ROM

5. reboot and see if it starts

6. if it does flash Magisk.zip and Gapps (if wanted)

When keeping the version but updating I usually do 1 and 2 (without Data) as well

Hello friend, I can't find that twrp that you used to clear the cache. Could you give me a link to download it?

Thank you!

Hey

I'm trying to upgrade my T900 to a working version. I've just installed Lineage 14.1, but 17.1 would be great. There is a "Built in Mic not working" note in the first post in "What doesn't work" section. A tablet without a built-in mic is a little unacceptable my case, cause my wife uses it. :D Is it so in the SM-T900 version? Can you confirm?

[G4 General] tkalfaoglu:
Shortly after getting my LG G4, the bootloop problem happened and I could not get it repaired because it was bought overseas..

So it stayed in a box for years.

The other day I made another attempt - this time I took its motherboard out (easy), then held a hair dryer to the CPU for 10 minutes, covering everything else.. now it works GREAT.. For about a week so far, it has been working great.. If you have a bootlooping phone because of that hardware error, I can assist.. Lemme know.

my friend wants to trade his iphone 3g 16gb for my tp. both of ours have been used within the week... should i? and even if i do, are the prices equal? i dont know much about the iphone prices :/ can anyone help please? thanks.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] typeaccr:
In my opinion with HTC releasing the Touch HD just around the corner, the TP will be outdated and the prices will take a hit. As for the 3g iPhone, it is still the phone to beat especially with all the apps that are being released for it lately plus I dont see a price drop coming within the near future on the blackmarket for these devices since the only other way to get one is thru ATT and a ridiculous plan and 2 year contract.

My $0.02

Cheers!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] groofoo:
and the fact that the iphone is overhyped.

meaning, even the stores had plenty of them in storage but they where only to be sold a few on a day (creating a hype).

if you write a problems over the iphone, most of the time you get sabered down by iphone lovers.

iphone is not sold for tweakers.

ppc is tweakable, and you can write down youre problem if you find any.

not that i am trying to put the iphone in corner.

i don`t own one.

and i like the looks, and how fast it works (tried it in the store).

i guess you have to find out yourself.

maybe try to swap with youre friend for a week for testing.

ooh and did i mentioned that i like it that wm isent the only phone OS on the market.

i welcome the idea of google`s android operating system.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] auriken:
thank you guys for your input. anyone else?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] fhsieh:
The the iPhone 3G is approx $6-700, the TP is about $900.

But over a 2 year contract, the iPhone will probably retain its value better than the TP (namely because Apple releases only one phone a year, while HTC is continually making better and better products).

Of course it also depends on if both are unlocked; if you're forced to use AT&T (or if you really need US 3G) then there's no clear winner since you'll end up paying a lot more for the plan itself.

Otherwise I would say the biggest consideration is what kind of smartphone user you think you are. If you have no problems with using iTunes and Apple's walled garden called the App Store, then the iPhone is a fair choice. But if you're a DIYer and have no problems copying files and making some registry edits, you'll find WinMo much more empowering.

Of course you should definitely also consider your warranty, insurance and replacement options. What will you have to do to get the 3G replaced versus the TP? Etc.

If you want a no-nonsense opinion, I'd say stick with the TP. We're only getting started here at XDA, and the TP has nowhere to go but up in terms of its software. The bulk of what the iPhone has to offer is already on the table, and will probably slow down once developers jump ship to Android. But that's only my opinion ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] jakontil:
i own both, what do u basically use your phone for? for a normal phone, iphone is great, top of everything, and for multimedia, it's still the phone to beat. and like said, it's fast, and very fast, Apple doesn't need to tell how it works, but watching movie is very pleasant compared to TP, despite the latter has more resolution to the screen.

anyway, if you really need a WM device, stay with TP, and like said before, it's tweakable, whereas the most you can do with iphone is jailbreaking to let other cracked 3rd party applications and games to be applicable on your iphone. not a straight through way to install anything you want.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] akash_nu:
I hate IPhone, apart from a massive screen & some eye-catching animation it has nothing else to offer and cummon, if u talk about speed, I have tried both IPhone & TP over 16mg Wifi and they both load a page almost within in same time.

How can you even call IPhone a smart phone??? It doesn't even have the basic functionality that a mediocre s60 has...

I have been burned with the Samsung SM-T290 And don't want this to happen again. I need an 8" tablet and I'm not loyal to any brand. I need to be able to hook up the thumb drive to it while charging with an OTG cable. I need to buy 12 of these so I need them to be as cost effective as possible and ideally I would like to find one with 1.5 amp or more of charging capability.

I'm looking at samsung T307U for around $150 or Samsung T380 for around $80. Both seem to have type C charge port and both seem to be capable of simulcharge with HDD attached.

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] BEDickey:
Hello all, I hope this finds you well. After having my Droid since the month it came out, I am finally having an issue I cannot seem to resolve. My phone will not charge, stuck at 16%. It took a fall the other day, so I think that did it, but it was in a lifeproof case (always has been) so there was no damage to the outside. When it is plugged in, it shows that it is getting power, but not charge. Is this just a battery issue, possibly? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for the advice, but I found the issue after studying my phone and other information on the net. What happened is my phone took a hard drop and it broke the connection to not only the QI charging coil, but more importantly, the temp sensor attached to it as well. Your phone will not charge without a working temp. sensor, end of story. When I removed the QI/Temp unit from a spare and installed it into my daily driver, everything started working perfectly again. Heads up for all of those who, like me, refuse to give up on our Droids. Best of luck going forwards!

I am using EdXposed, and have tried all the DisableFlagSecure modules, and also used Smali to add a module to Magisk to achieve the same result. None of it works.

I am using a Pixel 3 with Android Pie. I do not really want to update to 10 because then I won't be able to write to the system folder if I ever want to.

Am I missing something easy? Other modules in EdXposed and Magisk work OK, and I have a feeling this module is doing what is supposed to do, but there is something that is keeping it from triggering.

[OnePlus 9 Pro] thirtythr33:
grab the latest full ota from oxygen updater by downloading it to device storage - go to system update; local update - install the ota but do not reboot - once installed go into magisk and install to inactive slot (after ota) - reboot and profit

I found oxygen updater in Google play store. Is that what you're talking about?
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Shanemichealrowland:
No,I was hoping to figure out how to manually update my 9 pro without uninstalling Magisk manager or losing root access Besides,I don't think Oxygen os updater supports the 9 pro
[OnePlus 9 Pro] DashDashCZ:
Yes it does, I've been using it since I got my op9pro on 1st April.

[OnePlus 9 Pro] Flying Fox:
Exactly, and thx for your info!

One question. Why is it necessary to deactivate the magisk module before the update? Maybe somebody knows. I forgot to disable some of them without any issues. Just out of interest, as it is mentioned or recommended from time to time.

Happy Sunday to all..
[OnePlus 9 Pro] schmeggy929:
Some of the modules may not be compatible with upgrade, causing issues like bootlooping. That makes it a pain in the butt, to enter recovery and and delete the module.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] dreinulldrei:
There isn't a recovery yet (that can delete Magisk mods). Some mods might copy system files during installation to mess with them. Keeping the module means you might carry over system files from an older system version, causing trouble with new updates. Hence: turn them off before the update (except for stuff where you know it won't cause harm, like systemless hosts). And _reinstall_ those that modify system stuff, e.g. Qualcomm Wifi Bonding. This won't e.g. cause boot loops, but on my sons phone wifi was dead until I reinstalled the module.

Thx for your answers!! Nice to be back to Oneplus. Great community here...

[Samsung Galaxy A40 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Charlie Cooper:
Thanks for getting back - I wasn't sure what info to post.

So What I did:

1. Used ODIN to install a stock Flash File "SM-A405FN_2_20210401115508_ciabtdqry9_fac" (AP_A405FNXXU3CUC4_CL21112005_QB39200858_REV00_user_low_ship_meta_OS11.tar is one of the files inside the downloaded stock rom)

2. Installed TWRP "twrp-installer-3.5.2_9-0-a40".

3. Installed "multidisabler-samsung-3.1" from TWRP.

4. After reboot, Wiped /system, /data and cache.

5. installed your ROM.

6. When I turn on the phone i get the standard SAMSUNG first boot screen. Then a message about 'press power to ignore the unlocked bootloader and resume booting'. Then I get a black screen and I have to hold vol - and power to restart (happens again and again)

note: I'm not sure why you mentioned 'Vendor altF4'? That's a different rom in an unrelated post as I understood it.

Hope this helps (and maybe you can correct where I'm getting confused.)!
