Is there anyway to fastboot boot twrp.img instead of flashing to recovery?

I used to be able to just boot an image without flashing. I am nervous flashing especially if I have no way to get stock rom for my model.

In xda app, the conversation view does not show all conversations. Even if you select "Show all".

The list is limited to the last 20 conversations. Which might be Ok for many users.

Some users (like me) do have many conversations, so I miss a feature in the app to load additional/older conversations ... maybe as pages like in the browser.
[XDA App Bugs and Requests] woodman:
We moderators are also using A LOT the conversations...

I agree and also if I may, all PMs (not only the first 20 last ones as you said) should be accessible elsewhere than only in the alerts tab. The whole collection of PMs/conversations should have its own place in the app. Picked from HERE. So credits to @Robbo.5000

Hi,

I just received a notification this update is possible.

I'm looking for people who have noticed any new issues on this update.

Any issues such as the MIUI optimization slider being hidden in the dev settings or issues with the battery drain, or with the screen.

I'm aware these updates are made to fix issues supposedly but I can't help but think that they could introduce issues as well.

Hi , I have a box A9 s905x with with Hynix emmc which will not upgrade to Android 9 because the Kernel 4.9 is missing the aml_nftl_dev driver for the hynix emmc . Hoping if at all possible somebody has the knowledge to amend this driver so it works with the 4.9 Kernel . I was hoping to install slimbox or aidans s905x android 9 rom . I believe this would apply to S905x mxq 4k pro boxes also .Any help would be appreciated . Only other option i can think of is bypassing the emmc and running directly from sd card which i believe is possible after reading this but beyond me maybe somebody may have a script to write to the sd card here is a link to running from sd https://habr.com/ru/post/525116/

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] JustinC:
Hi all. I have recently purchase the Touch diamond and have really been enjoying the funcitonality of it, although I am getting bored of the themes and games available.

A friend of mine told me about the site and you guys really seem to know what is going on. I have done a little research on new themes etc and there are a few things I want to ask, before of course asking for help:D

Firstly, I heard about something called flashing. I have no idea what it is but apparently it is quite a good way to upgrade the standard phone. Could anyone explain flashing to me?

And secondly, could anyone give me an idea or even an example of how to change the themes on my diamond by either flashing or by using a theme configuring programme etc. The help would be greatly appreciated.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] bsmack:
I hope this is the right place to post this, I'm offering $250 to the person that can assist me in getting my phone to boot again so I can extract the data I need from it. Here are the quick facts:

-Verizon Pixel 5 (locked bootloader, fastboot commands don't work)

-Woke up and phone was in Android Recovery mode (was working fine when I put it on the charger)

-adb sideload OTA hasn't worked so far (tried most recent OTA package and it loaded successfully with status 0 but still leaves me in a bootloop, older Verizon specific OTAs will not load due to being outdated)

-Even tried sideloading Android 12 dev preview, no success

-Safe mode does not work

-Verified that my backups do not contain the data I am trying to recover

I've tried pretty much everything I could find by searching here and other forums/resources and I'm pretty much at the point where I'm thinking this data may be gone forever but I'm hoping someone can prove me wrong. Willing to do a remote session with the phone connected if needed.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] rbouza1:
Try the latest factory image for Verizon
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] bsmack:
I appreciate the reply, unfortunately I can't flash factory images via fastboot due to the bootloader being locked. I tried both the latest factory image from April '21 and the latest Verizon labeled factory image from Feb '21.

Bounty is still out FYI, I plan on tossing the phone in a drawer for a few months to see if anyone comes up with anything. I'll be taking it out to continue trying out adb sideload of the monthly OTAs that get posted, definitely anxiously awaiting the May '21 update!
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] bsmack:
Not sure if this information helps, but I just tried sideloading the May '21 OTA and I'm still stuck in the same spot. After the sideload finished successfully (code 0, no errors) it tried to boot but I got the Android Recovery screen again. It still references RQ2A.210405.005 (May '21 OTA is RQ2A.210505.003).
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] l7777:
Try changing the active boot slot with fastboot?

How to Change the Current Active Partition Slot? - Tech Explained

Modern Android smartphones ship with partition slots A and B and we can use a Fastboot command to manually change from one active slot to the other.

krispitech.com
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] User699:
Yes, that makes sense on a/b-partitioned devices. The update is always applied to the inactive slot.

So you would have to change the current slot as suggested:

However, I don't think you can do that without unlocking your bootloader.

If you could boot into system, however, we might do it without the bootloader. But here comes the next problem: You cannot boot into system.

What do you even get? A screen saying "Your data may be corrupted" (known as "rescue party")?

Or your normal recovery screen?

If it actually is rescue party, hit the "try again" button – it would reboot, fail and go back to rescue party.

Do that 7-10 times without interruption (e.g. turning of the device). Your device should automatically change the slot to the 'other' slot, and then boot just fine.

Since you offer $250, you may want to invest in "chip off". Your phone will be disassembled and your chip (which holds all of your data) will be removed from the phone.

Using special hard- and software, you should be able to recovery your data.

Only thing I don't know: How do these tools handle encryption? I'm pretty sure they can offer something to insert your password etc., but you may want to research a bit further before buying those tools or paying someone to do it for you.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] l7777:
I suspect this will be much more than $250 if they can get past the encryption. It's not just a matter of the password it's knowing how to combine the password with the devices unique hardware encryption key to ultimately decrypt the file system.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] bsmack:
I appreciate the response, this is something I hadn't tried before. Unfortunately it seems Verizon blocks this functionality as well.

I believe it is rescue party as that is the first screen I see (data corrupt with two options; try again or wipe phone). Currently trying this now to see if I can get it to switch to slot b (fastboot currently indicates that the active slot is slot a).
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] bsmack:
Another thought, if I flash an OTA (let's say to slot b since slot a is the active one), after a successful flash wouldn't recovery flag slot b as the slot to attempt to boot into next? And on that next boot, is slot b simply failing to boot and reverting to slot a, which is why I'm seeing the "old" android version in rescue party?
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] bsmack:
*$250 BOUNTY IS STILL ACTIVE!*

Hopefully replying to myself doesn't get too annoying for everyone, just wanted to give an update and hopefully give some insight to lurkers that might be experiencing something similar.

Based on what I'm seeing, slot a contains the corrupted OS and when I do an "adb sideload" successfully it installs to slot b. Immediately after a successful adb sideload, if I don't "reboot now" and instead "reboot to bootloader" it will show at the bottom of the fastboot screen that the active boot slot is b.

After I press "start" from the bootloader menu, the phone booting takes longer than normal, will restart once, takes a long time again, then restarts again and quickly brings me to the "rescue party" screen with RQ2A.210405.005 as the active OTA version. If I go back to the bootloader after this it will show that the active boot slot is now a.

I am truly thankful for all the replies and suggestions so far and I would love nothing more than to send this $250 bounty to a forum member.

[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] l7777:
Have you tried the RQ2A.210405.005 OTA?

Does

fastboot boot <extracted kernel image>

work? Not sure about this with locked bootloader.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] bsmack:
Unfortunately this did not work. Never buying a Verizon locked Pixel again!
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] l7777:
How about:

Apply latest OTA

Reboot to bootloader/recovery

Apply latest OTA again

In theory that should update both slots A and B. Though it sounds like it attempts to boot slot B, then falls back to slot A, then to recovery. Which means something is really unhappy but we're pretty limited with the bootloader lock.

Was ADB enabled? Can you get a logcat while it tries to boot?
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] bsmack:
This was a great idea, unfortunately I think there's a failsafe in place for this. When I went back into recovery to apply the latest OTA again, as expected, the recovery mode menu showed the latest OTA which I have not yet successfully booted into (RQ2A.210505.003).

When running adb sideload to flash slot a, the package seems to transfer but instantly stops (I assume there's some flag that slot a has to not be overwritten because a successful boot to slot b hasn't happened yet). An interesting thing to note is that my phone seems to be regularly trying to boot slot b now instead of slot a, when the rescue party screen shows up I now see RQ2A.210505.003 as opposed to RQ2A.210405.005.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] l7777:
Tried this yet?

Google Pixel - Update and Software Repair

It isn't really clear whether it will wipe data or not.

Someone noted that the fastboot in rescue mode is different from the normal fastboot. I don't know if it will behave any differently when told to fastboot flash or other things not typically allowed with a locked bootloader.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] bsmack:
Really appreciate you trying to walk me through this. This was something I had tried (neglected to mention in the OP, my bad!) and I do remember it recommended/prompted me to wipe and restore my phone.

Here's the interesting thing; when I select Verizon as my carrier now it says that it's NOT the carrier for my phone's current software. This was not the case before.

It doesn't seem like rescue mode can take fastboot commands, it is listed when I do "adb devices" though. Instead of "sideload" it says "rescue".

EDIT: And I did try some basic stuff like "adb shell" and "adb pull" in rescue mode, I get an instant "connection closed" error.

Thank you for this! The phone is much faster, but also warmer in daily use. DeepSleep is perfect.
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Freak07:
My phone runs on the same temperature compared to stock kernel.

Whats your ambient temperature? Maybe it's related to that.

Or it's coincidence and an app is stuck in background or got recently an update. Give it a reboot or maybe a few days. (y)
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Seosam:
I think this is due to the higher boost from the kernel compared to stock. There is also only a 4-5 degree Celsius difference. And only when using apps. You can feel it a little in your hand.

Reboot was carried out, of course. As I said, I think it's simply due to the higher frequencies overall and is completely within the limits.
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Freak07:
The kernel doesn´t boost anything higher than stock. The powerhal and all boosts on input are unchanged compared to stock. Improved UI performance isn´t due to higher boosting.

Might be that some of the scheduler changes, paired with your unique usage lead to overall higher used freqs and the mild temperature increase.

Interesting that it seems to be the case for you.

Temps are basically the same on my end also during benchmarks, because I monitored temps while verifying the improved UI performance.

Thanks for the report! There is still more to come :) (also for the scheduler)

[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Freak07:
No, it's best if you extract them yourself.

If you followed the instructions in the OP you should have a backup from boot.img and dtbo.img made via TWRP. (y)

If you don't have them download the full firmware and extract them via payload extractor. You will be able to find that on XDA.

Edit: to flash Omni you need to have stock rom on both slots anyway. So just flash stock rom twice (that will restore original boot.img and dtbo.img anyway) and follow the Omni instructions! :)

Feature Documentation:

Here´s a brief documentation about some of the features included in the kernel that can be changed as the user desires.

They can be accessed via either terminal, scripts or for example EXKM manager ( tools -> user settings).

CPU-Frequency Limiting

Another option is CPU-Freq Limiting. You can now limit the CPU frequency to a few different levels with a sysfs interface. Original implementation is from @tbalden, I only changed it to be accessible via traditional root methods.

Main Switch:

sys/module/cpufreq/parameters/batterysaver

Set this option to "1" to enable the feature

Max-Frequency Selection (Input boosts, such as scrolling boost or app launching boosts will still apply, if touch boost restriction is not set to 1)

sys/module/cpufreq/parameters/batterysaver_level

Set this to "1" to restrict the max CPU-Freqs to 1,7GHZ/2,1GHZ/2,49GHZ (Little Cluster/Big Cluster/Prime Core)

Set this to "2" to restrict the max CPU-Freqs to 1,6GHZ/1,7GHZ/2,0GHZ (Little Cluster/Big Cluster/Prime Core)

Set this to "3" to restrict the max CPU-Freqs to 1,49GHZ/1,4GHZ/1,6GHZ (Little Cluster/Big Cluster/Prime Core)

Touch-Boost Restriction

sys/module/cpufreq/parameters/batterysaver_touch limiting

Set this to "1" to restrict the powerhal from boosting over the limit defined in batterysaver_level

Set this to "0" to allow the powerhal to boost above the values defined in batterysaver_level, but only during interaction with the Phone!

This is for example very useful during gaming to prevent additional heat, if not the highest performance from the CPU is required. Check if the game is running fine on level 1 or 2, and you´ll notice much less heat. Powerdraw will be reduced as well.

Another very useful trick while doing video calls or long extended navigation sessions with google maps to preserve battery or keep the phone from heating. Especially during summer if the ambient temperatures are high.

This is a very easy way to preserve battery or reduce heat without toggling the battery save mode in settings as that restricts background data usage, which can lead to delayed notifications.
