[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] demirlijanp:
Now i get the price tag of this phone, you buy it, and spend all your time with it searching the forums and fixing it, because prior to this device, i had other brands like Samsung, Huawei, apple, where things like this worked like a charm, an we are accustomed to expect the same thing with the price tag of 300€, unfortunately it doesn't work that way.. i had Huawei mate 30 pro before Poco f3, i mean it is night and day.. if i set the time widget on home screen, the clock from status bar disappears, i mean come on. I can't change the date order on the lock screen, phone app is just awful, every time I had to search for something i had to exit the phone app and go to the contacts app.. swiping from the home screen for the status bar is really hit or miss.. i don't like miui at all, i thought i wouldn't mind it but it was a mistake.. I'm considering flashing AOSP but that to the side is a mess, with the firmwares, partitions, recovery.. I'm regretting for buying this phone.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Garfield3333:
I think i've found ah solution, its an permission problem.

For everone who has this problem.....

click on the top/right buttons for showing the system apps, to see the system apps who dont have permissions for location...

->…activate the system apps for location

reboot and everthing works (Maps and so on)

im looking so long for a solution, i hope i can help someone....😉

Hi everyone!

From a week i using crdroid and i am very happy with it.

i noticed that i never update my firmware from the xiaomi firmware. usually 50 MB.

DO I need to flash those files? my hardware work better?

thanks!
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] drnightshadow:
Why fix something if it isn't broken? If you are happy and all is working... don't touch!! That's my advice.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] tyrchyus:
Thanks a lot for your answer!

That's perfect!

Have a nice day!
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] tyrchyus:
Sorry for merge another question. But maybe in recovery twrp I did not wiped the vendor? Right now I do not remember. I just want to understand why some guys' guide advice you to install vendor.

Sorry for the silly question!
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] drnightshadow:
Not recommended to not wipe it, but i think crdroid patched vendor partition (at least LineageOS do) when you flashed.. You'll see when you'll upgrade in terminal log, something like patching vendor partition.

But for more info go ask in crdroid thread.

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] Padaruyos:
Hello. This is my first post in this forum. (I'm Indonesian)

So I was trying to sideload an app to a ZTE ZXV10 B860H. I managed to get the apk file onto the box, all I need to do was installing it. The problem is that the system by default blocks app installations from unknown sources, and I can't find the setting that allows installations from unknown sources. Anyone knows how to enable installations from unknown sources? It's running Android 10.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] evehaa:
I supposed you already have google play store installed.

Here's what I do

1. Install developer tools from google playstore on your TV

2. Open it and go to developer option

3. Enable USB Debugging

Install ES File Explorer on the STB

1. Install ES File Explorer from apkpure to your android phone

2. Connect your STB to the same WiFi as your phone

3. Go to ES File Explorer from your phone

4. Press on the 3 bar on the top left corner and search for network, press that and go to Android TV

5. Your phone will search for your STB and it will appear as IP Address

6. Click on it

7. Allow the debugging on your tv (I set it as always trust for easy installation on the future) and wait untill the installation done

8. Now your STB will have ES File Explorer

How to install apps to STB

1. Download the apk to your phone

2. Select the apk from ES File Explorer

3. Press More (the 3 dots on bottom right corner)

4. Select install to Android TV

5. Wait for the installation

6. Enjoy your app

Notes :

You can only install apk from this way since it won't ask for unknown source installation therefore you can installed Aptoide TV to your STB, BUT your Aptoide TV CANNOT install any other apps.

Um do you really need the Emui 9.1 kernel?

Cuz Emui 9.1 is totally Garbage you cant decrypt on that version. Why not downgrade back to Emui 9.0 cuz you can decrypt on that also it has bigger System Partition means you can flash Bigger size of GSi for example when you want to flash PE cuz PE GSi is Big it has 3.4gb which is not fittable for Emui 9.1💀

But I'm still not sure if Emui 9.1 has too much small system Partition

It’s good practice to regularly audit and remove apps from your Samsung Galaxy Note 9 to free memory and ensure proper operation. Even if you don’t use an app, it may still run in the background and slow performance. Follow these steps and get rid of apps you no longer use.

From the Home screen, swipe your list of apps up.

Tap and hold the icon for the app you wish to remove.

Select “Uninstall” or “Disable“.

Will relocking erase user data?

Generally speaking - with regards to this thread's title:

Rooting phone's Android works without unlocking it's bootloader. Rooting Android simply is adding an user called "superuser ( AKA root )" to Android.

Reason why people unlock bootloader is to be able to flash custom ROMS.
[General Questions and Answers] Austinredstoner:
Rooting without unlocking bootloader only works on

4.2 jellybean

4.4 KitKat

5.0 lollipop

5.1.1. lollipop

All of the other version of android will not work because in android 6 marshmallow google patched root without unlocking bootloader so this means if u are on Android 6 marshmallow it will not work also if u are on Android 6 marshmallow and higher don't brother with kingroot or all of that one click root because that will not work I would recommend magisk to root your phone

[General Questions and Answers] rossrosh007:
I'm on Android 11.

Ok, so I have to patch boot.img with magisk or magisk manager (I don't know the difference)? On GitHub the latest version is just magisk v22.

So to use magisk unlocking bootloader is required... I'll be keeping stock ROM. So will I be able to relock bootloader after patching and rooting?
[General Questions and Answers] rossrosh007:
I'm on Android 11, and I'll keep stock Rom.

How can I flash SuperSU without custom recovery or unlocking bootloader?

If I have to unlock bootloader, can I relock it after flashing SuperSU?
[General Questions and Answers] :
Don't confuse SuperSU ( what is an application which lets you manage root permissions for apps which require root access) and SU ( AKA superuser and/or root ): Totally different things.

SuperSU app relies on presence of SU applet.

Installing SU applet doesn't require phone's bootloader gets unlocked, but it's required Android's DM-VERITY feature permanently gets disabled before, this because content of /system partition gets altered.

Look also inside here:

[General Questions and Answers] rossrosh007:
Ok. SuperSU app is the permission manager.

How do I go about implementing superuser without unlocking bootloader on Android 11?

Unlocking BL is required when using magisk. I'll be keeping stock ROM, so will I be able to relock BL after patching boot.img with magisk? Will root/superuser stay if I relock BL?

Some threads say the magisk patched boot.img is considered tampered and the DM-verity will cause issues when relocking BL. Unless you sign it... Is that true? (Different users saying true and false, so I don't know what is what)
[General Questions and Answers] :
1. You install matching SU applet by means of ADB. The SU applet can get fetched from here

LineageOS Downloads

download.lineageos.org

2. Can't tell you what is right or wrong: never made use of Magisk or TWRP. :)
[General Questions and Answers] rossrosh007:
Fair enough on point 2 🙂

The SU from LineageOS not a problem to use on Samsung stock Rom? I mean that SU applet not developed to be compatible with LineageOS only or something?

Any instruction on how to apply this SU applet will be useful. (I'm searching through the forum as well)
[General Questions and Answers] :
Only to clarify things:

SU is a Linux command, Android is based on Linux kernel, hence SU applet compiled for mobile's CPU architecture always works, regardless of mobile's brand / model / Android release.

As I already mentioned here, you can install SU by means of a ADB command-sequence which typically looks like this

adb disable-verity
adb reboot
adb shell "mount -t auto -o rw,remount /system"
adb push <SU-BINARY-LOCATION-ON-PC-HERE> /system/bin
adb shell "chown root:root /system/bin/su"
adb shell "chmod 06755 /system/bin/su"
adb shell "chcon '/system/bin/su' u:object_r:su_exec:s0"

True, it's all Linux based, but thought the directories might be different manufacturer to manufacturer. With the verify functions and all... Didn't want to modify a wrong directory and get bricked.

Can I install supersu.apk (root access manager) after this?

If I need to revert things back to how they were (unroot, enable dm-verity) ... How do I do that?
[General Questions and Answers] :
SuperSU APK is just like any other Android application. It only will properly work if SU is runing as Android service, means gets started at Android's boot up

# su daemon
service su_daemon /system/bin/su --daemon
seclabel u:r:sudaemon:s0
oneshot
on property:persist.sys.root_access=1
start su_daemon

what requires Android's boot file init.rc must got patched accordingly.
[General Questions and Answers] Nichole D. Harris:
frequently conversing - with thoughts to this thread's headline:

I am rooting the phone's Android products externally, unfastening its bootloader. Rooting Android only is combining a user-designated "superuser ( AKA motive )" toward Android.

Special purpose how? Somebody unlock bootloaders is to be capable of flashing system ROMS.
[General Questions and Answers] maintanosgr:
I've just found this thread and wanted to understand something. Does adb disable-verity work without unlocking bootloader?

Do you mean that if you install su on the system via adb on the above sequence then the system is essentially rooted no matter whether you unlock the bootloader or not?

Earlier it was mentioned that you need to run a service in order for the superuser apps to work and this requires the boot.img to be modified and this needs the bootloader to be unlocked. Will superuser apps like superuser apk work just with su on the system?

I mean can I just soft start the daemon with a terminal app without adding it as a startup service?
[General Questions and Answers] :
Again: Rooting Android is adding an user named SUPERUSER to Android OS - not to get confused with Android's default user named root - an user who has elevated rights ( comparable to Administrator in Windows OS ).

The SuperSU app what you're referring to is a manager app that runs a database where apps which request superuser right are stored.

The SuperSu service ( read: sudaemond ) is a complete other thing, it serves another purpose: it's needed to have SuperSU app working.
