[Redmi Note 10 Pro] anur@g:
You've older version of miui installed with twrp and device is rooted.

1) you don't need to wipe anything. Just flash the rom and If you want you can wipe caches after flashing the rom.

2) TWRP might get replaced with stock one so flash twrp immediately after flashing the ROM. Also flash DM Verity disabler zip otherwise miui will replace twrp with stock recovery.

3) According to topjohnwu, the method of getting magisk by flashing in recovery is old & deprecated and maintained with minimal efforts & no longer recommended.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Vilrockerdefer:
Ok so for those interested, here’s how I did it :

- in Magisk I chose uninstall - restore image

- did the ota the normal way before any reboot

then had to reroot :

- downloaded the fastboot firmware here

- extracted boot.img from archive and transfered it to phone

- in magisk click install then select boot.img

- magisk writes a new file magisk_patched_[random_strings].img, copied it to pc

- booted the phone in fastboot mode

- used fastboot.exe with command fastboot flash boot magisk_patched_[random_strings].img

Done. No data or settings lost.
[HTC Excalibur] Pfisher737:
Hi, Just bought a Dash on eBay that was supposed to have a broken LCD and other than that flaw, be a normal phone that works. I am currently awaiting the new LCD to get here in the mail.

Here's the problem:

It has a portion of the LCD that is viewable enough to see that it was getting stuck on the T-Mobile Splash Screen. .....

I did some research on this forum and it appeared that a "hard reset" was going to be in order. Did the two soft keys/power on method and got it to enter the hard reset mode. It appeared to start doing it's thing and got to 2% on the configuring device screen and it completly stoped...I would say it stayed on that screen for 20 minutes or so. I pulled the battery, and it will not come on at all now. Am I screwed?

This is a little bit frustrating because the seller clearly lied to me about the condition of the phone, and now it's almost like I can't even return it to him/her because it will not come on at all now.

Any help would be great...I think I bought a paper weight!
[Android Head-Units] SykoraLukas:
Hey guys, I have bought my 2din 9216BJ device recently which runs on fake 9.1 ROM (cpu-z says it’s API 27, 8.1.0 Oreo). I found an OTA package on XYAUTO website for the device but I am confused which version should I flash? There are two versions - 8.1 and 9.1.

If my device run on 8.1 but it’s faked as 9.1 shall I install 8.1 or 9.1? Does manufacturer use faked version numbers or true ones in the name of the OTA package?

I don’t want to mess with SP Flash Tool so I am happy with OTA packages only.
[Android Head-Units] SykoraLukas:
Ah, nvm.

Found out that:

8.1 = Android 6

9.1 = Android 8.1

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GeekyWilliam:
I'm debating on picking up the Fire HD 10 2021 edition during Prime Day sale. Are there ways to put actual android OS rom on it or just adding Play store, google services and stuff with the toolkit. Typically I'd try to do more research but time is a bit limited on the sale so any help would be appreciated. I use to flash roms on phones in the past and just curious if there is any support or ability to do that with the Fire HD tablets. Thanks in advance!
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NTGDeveloper:
Here's the thing with loading custom roms on any 2019 or newer fire tablet nowadays. No one's been able to find any exploits on the tablets because Amazon has been cracking down on the MediaTek exploits that we would usually be able to use. Especially with the newer OS, I really don't think that anyone will find anything that they can do with unlocking the bootloader and flashing a new ROM since it's basically all been patched.

In terms of Google Play Services and apps, I haven't tried this on the HD 10 2021, but it is most likely possible because I use them just fine on my HD 8 Plus 2020 running the same operating system. So Google Play Store is (most likely) achievable. Hope this helps!
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Galaxy-Geek#1:
Are the Amazon Fire tablets rootable at all? Able to Magisk? I would like to get into rooting and was hopping we could with this device
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NTGDeveloper:
Well, yes and no. I know that sounds pretty vague, but it's because it really depends on the tablets.

So recently, people haven't been able to find any exploits that will give them root access to newer tablets, and without an unlockable bootloader, Magisk is definitley out of the question.

On some of the older tablets, as you probably have already seen, there are unlockable bootloaders, but this involves a lot of work to the tablet in terms of software and it isn't as simple as a command like "fastboot oem unlock" (unfortunately).

Basically, I don't think that root will be possible on the HD 10 2021, or at least anytime soon, because the rooting on the older tablets were done by finding exploits in the CPU and Preloader, and then using those exploits to use a hacked bootloader and recovery, and then those would patch the OS to allow you to mod those as much as possible, including giving you the ability to root. Amazon has patched these exploits and no one has been able to use one of the more popular "temporary" root solutions (mtk-su) with the newer tablets since the 2019 HD 10.

So, for now at least, you'll be out of luck. :(
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GLRioux:
Did you buy that Fire? I did. Then I immediately ran Fire Toolox (https://xdaforums.com/t/windows-tool-fire-toolbox) to make it run like normal Android.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bucksitter:
One thing you'll find is that, even though you're able to install the Play Store and do a few more things with the ToolBox, any Amazon tablet running their Fire OS 7.x.x.x versions won't be able to do much with Google apps having to do with communications, that use push notifications (such as Hangouts or Chat). Something likely to do with how Google Play Services is working or interacting with Fire OS. It just won't allow it to work.

I've got Google Chat installed on my 2019 9th gen HD 10 and it had been able to be used to read and respond to received posts, just no notifications on incoming (I relied on another straight Android device for alerts). But sometime in the past two weeks an update to either Chat or (probably) Play Services occurred that makes Chat immediately close when I attempt to open an existing conversation. Bad news since Google is finally announcing the impending shutdown of the IM portion of Hangouts. Hoping to find out more about that on this forum.

After many many frustrating days, I have narrowed down a VERY ANNOYING issue with the otherwise BEAUTIFUL S2U2.

If the device is locked for more than 5 minutes, the connection to my bluetooth headset is lost...not just lost, but my phone doesnt even bother to look for it. I have to go through discovery again. Then the process starts all over again...after 5 min...its toast.

I have tried all versions of SU2U all the way up to 1.22. On an HTC PPC6800 (Alltel) running WM 6.0 (6.1 has been delayed by Alltel's cell group)

As soon as I take the SU2U off the phone..it works like a charm.:confused:

Any thoughts (or sob stories) would be helpfull :(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Kicken:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] wacky.banana:
Hi,

You are going to get a kicking for this. It would have ben best if you had posted in the original thread and/or kept an eye on what the general consensus on posting threads is.

Forum members are trying to reduce the number of new threads posted in order to improve the search facility and to stop clutter.

As for the answer to your question, not a clue. Sorry.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sean D.:
What???

In the OP's defense, have you seen how big that thread is? It is damn near impossible to get a question answered in there unless a lot of people have the same issues.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TheChampJT:
So ask in the "Questions" thread.........

Is a user supposed to post a new thread for every question because the original is a bit too large?

Either way, all S2U2 does is prevent screen taps and turns the display off, it does not interfere with the bluetooth connections.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] EnsconcE:
First: What is SU2U? ;)

Second: Do you know which program manages your bluetooth headset and which is using it? Making that difference makes your question easier. Think in terms like what program do i use to connect my bluetooth headset.

Third: Search, search and search. If that is not enough, search more. There are many threads where bluetooth and headseats are discussed. Come back with information from those threads so we do not have to give the same information over and over again. Besides that, doing your own research narrows your problem

I want to get this mock location app to work on s10 rooted device running android 10.

This app here is the mock location app that only currently works with android 9 because it uses an exploit that allows that was later fixed when android 10 was released.

Mock Locations (fake GPS path) - Apps on Google Play

Fake GPS location path - route movement, joystick control, play from GPX file

play.google.com

On rooted devices it can change location without the system admin privileges being ticked for "allow mock locations".

I have talked to the developer of the app and he gave me the code which explains the exploit that makes it work on android 9, so that I could hire a developer to create a stock android 10 rom which allows this still to be exploited and work on a rooted s10 running android 10.

To summarize: This mock location app works great on a rooted s10 running android 9 without developer mode "allow mock locations" being ticked. I want a stock android 10 rom altered to allow this exploit to work on android 10 with my rooted s10.

Please PM me if you are interested

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] Joshumpa:
Hello!

My brother give me this S9 that he modified but it has OneUI 1.0 (Android 9) and i want to know if there's a way to update it.

My doubt is because, I think, it has another kernel, TWRP and it was rooted with magisk, but playing with the root, I uninstalled it from the app. XD

Here are some of the specs

Model: SM-G960F

CPU: Exynos 9810

Kernel: 4.9.59-ElementalX-S9-2.08

I know a little bit about these things but I want to update it because some system apps throws errors (nearby service error or something like that)

Do I need to use Odin and all those things? or the TWRP can help me?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] spawnlives:
You can flash updated firmware by using Odin.

Download firmware from websites like sammobil or updato.

The quickest way is use PC App called Frija to download latest firmware

You will lose twrp and magisk and depending on how you flash apps and data as well. So i would do a backup before hand.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] Joshumpa:
Do you know if it is safe to use FlashFire?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] spawnlives:
I haven't used FlashFire. I did install it on a S8 but didn't work. From memory i think it was a magisk issues, could not grant root access.

Also hasn't been updated for a while so may not work on current android versions and magisk versions.

The only app i use from Chainfire is LiveBoot.

Hey, I would like ro request a better version of the calendar.

Touch/finger friendly. like the iPhone calendar.

- Day view, with Time, and planes (more welldone shown then WM-calendar.)

- Monthly view with stickers on the day for happenings or so, like the Windows app. Rainlender,

- maybe included in the "home" tab i TF3D, with icons, as i would like above.

- maybe show the monthly view like the "calendar tab by D-MAN666" but more changeable, like the rainlender.

- a view that we could se ONLY uppcomming like the iPhone. fingerfriendly list with only the dates connected to a apointment show,

- on birthdays maybe a little thumb of the person.

like so:

and more futures, i love D-MAN666 way off showing the calendar, but i would like to changes apointmants in it, ad remove and so on.. and i cant do that :/

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Guinea20:
Hello, I'm trying to clear something up once and for all, I bought a dual sim tray off amazon for my US Unlocked Note 20 Ultra, put two sims in it and inserted it in the phone. However absolutely nothing different happened, only the bottom sim (1) was recognized. I am wondering if the US Note 20 does not physically support two sims (or is these some trick to enable it in software, rooted or not)? If anyone knows for sure, please let me know!

Also on eSim functionality, I am able to get into the CSC menu but it only shows US codes, currently it looks like mine is set to TMB (despite it being unlocked straight from samsung), why do I not have any options for eSim (TMB is supposed to I think)?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Fatmonk8:
Nope, only 1 Sim supported, pretty sure it doesn't have the hardware for two physical sims. Also even though you have T-Mobile csc on your unlocked, you need to flash T-Mobile firmware to use esim. (Essentially turning your U1 into a U. esim won't work on unlocked firmware.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] sarinhighwind:
This is hilarious.

I bought the 20 because it was widely advertised to have dual sim card support, which I want/need as E-sim is .. well, not really available yet.

So, all the advertisements for the phone everywhere list it as a dual sim card phone, but its not.

GG samsung. ffs. I'd have bought the standard note 20.

Only reason to keep the 20 ultra is the sim card support.

Which even then, the phone handles like crap.

According to this thread( https://slickdeals.net/f/14948867-google-pixel-3-phone-64-gb-pink-169-99?page=16#commentsBox ), one could unlock the bootloader of a Verizon 3 with the following method. I have already installed this month's update, so I cannot test it for now. If you have a Verizon Pixel 3 and have not installed this month's update, can you test this?

"

remove sim (!!!) if you ran it before with the sim inside - remove sim and do factory reset TWICE

connect to wifi

let it download the update

DONT INSTALL UPDATE

go to About Phone -> Build Version. Click it 10 times until it tells you're the Developer now

go to Developer menu

wait until the OEM unlock option becomes clickable (happens after system update is downloaded, but NOT installed)

toggle OEM unlock (result: should be enabled)

Enable USB debug on the phone (also Developer menu)

connect the device to your win/mac/linux machine with adb installed with USB cable with data pins. Phone will ask if you authorize your PC to USB debug it

from your PC run : "adb reboot bootloader". That will reboot your phone to bootloader with message and status "locked"

from your PC while your phone is in fastboot mode: "fastboot flashing unlock" (that should respond with

OKAY [ 0.356s]

Finished. Total time: 0.368s)

You're good now. It's bootloader unlocked. you can install any updates. It will not lock itself and can install any other 3rd party firmware (on your risk, sure)"

It shouldn't hurt to try, but if it is a Verizon phone it is unlikely to work.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] yourrealking:
I have given up. I will wait until the official software support from Google ends (later this year). End of support means that whatever exploit will be found will not be patched by Google, so if people could find a way to unlock the bootloader using some security vulnerabilities, the method will reliably work from that point on for ever.

When you have a new device, would the following work:

1. Unlock bootloader

In fastboot mode:

2.

fastboot boot c:\twrp.img

In TWRP

3. Install TWRP

4. Install Magisk

5. Reboot - then you have Root, TWRP?

6. Upgrades can than be done in TWRP by installing the files and than intalling again TWRP and afterwards Magisk?

Best

[OnePlus 9] kitcostantino:
It appears you are asking. If I am incorrect, my apologies. With the 6t (also a a/b OP device)

The process I always used was

1) reboot to bootloader

2) boot twrp.img

3) install twro zip

4) reboot recovery

5) upon TWRP reboot, install magisk

6) profit.

Anytime I tried to go ahead and install Magisk in the same round as installing TWRP, it would install to the opposite slot making me have to do the whole process over again. Ymmv
