Help me pls.

I accidentally installed bootloader unlocker for my rog 2. Now its so hard to bring it back . Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you
[OnePlus 9 Pro] maneeshsin:
I have installed custom ROM (lineage os) for one-plus 9 pro android device. I have unlocked the boot-loader and changed the boot-animation image.

Now I want to lock the boot-loader again to get rid of annoying message that comes at the start. In order to lock the boot-loader , I have to flash the signed boot image .

I am struggling to find the steps required to sign the boot image.

I have tried some post but it did not work.

Appreciate if someone can help me?

Re-locking the bootloader forces to run device's Stock ROM only.

I just want to remove boot loder warning message screen. is it possible ?
[OnePlus 9 Pro] areallydumbperson:
It is possible by editing your logo.IMG or logo.bin file (you can backup your logo partition using any tool like partition backup and restore on playstore)
[OnePlus 9 Pro] tech_head:
It is not possible to get rid of that message of an unlocked bootloader.

That message is part of the secure boot process and happens long before boot animation. That message is part of the bootloader itself.

When you flash a ROM you do not flash the bootloader.

The only way to get rid of that message is with a signed bootloader that doesn't display it. That does not exist. If you have an unlocked bootloader, you live with the message.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] areallydumbperson:
I have an unlocked bootloader on my phone and I have edited my phones image to remove the message
[OnePlus 9 Pro] areallydumbperson:
And FYI logo partition isnt the boot animation
[OnePlus 9 Pro] AnierinB:
I seriously doubt this. The warning is a part of aboot itself and has nothing to do with the splash.img or logo.img you're referring to.

Ways around this in the past were done by hex editing aboot to set the delay of the warning to 0-1 seconds, that way it essentially just skips it. But that hasn't been done since OP3 series afaik.

[Samsung Galaxy F62 / M62] LR7875:
Well you cannot do that as for now, because developers did not even build a TWRP (it is Samsung's fault).

BUT you can disable bloatware here

How to disable any pre-installed system app bloatware on Android without root

If you hate the bloatware or pre-installed apps on your Android smartphone, here's how to disable them even if Android doesn't normally let you.

www.xda-developers.com

Be extra careful as disabling some apps will make the operating apps unstable.

Always backup.

Is there no hope? two months later?
[Samsung Galaxy F62 / M62] LR7875:
Since you got an Exynos chip (and Exynos phones usually get good developement) , patiently wait and after a few months it will come (which could be painful if it is heavily bloated with trackers, useless apps, etc). But the wait will (at 90 percent of time) be eventually over.

Hi guys,

I bought an Ex-demo phone last week and it is working fine like a normal phone, the Oppo Code has been entered and the Display mode has been disabled but there are some display features are still within the phone, such as it will only let you set up a pin code like 12345! & Ad starts running if i keep the phone idle for few minutes.

Can someone help me remove or flash it with stock rom to change it to normal version?!

After update to Android 12 and reset device to factory condition try this method

100% work!!!!
[OPPO Find X2 Pro Questions & Answers] wjalexan:
Hi,

I know this is very late however I just encountered the same issue and fixed it.

Here are the steps I used:

Reset the device for use with factory reset APK (though it sounds like you have already done this) Here is the tool I used: https://www.martview-forum.com/threads/oppo-all-model-demo-live-remove-gift-for-all-oppo-user.2519/

After phone has been setup, install a custom launcher. I used Hyperion Launcher, however any launcher should work.

Uninstall the demo app on the phone with the custom launcher. The stock oppo launcher won't allow you to do this, but a custom launcher will.

Install the factory reset APK again and factory reset the phone once more.

Setup the phone and enjoy the phone!

NOTE: between steps 3 and 4, it should be noted that I updated my X2 pro to android 12. This shouldn't make a difference however I have no way to know.

Hope this helps!

[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] anthony001:
hi i have a sm g610y and have a few question regarding updating

how do i upgrade from android 6 to android 7. and if i did upgrade is it possible and safe to downgrade.

what things do i lose out if i upgrade from 6 to 7?
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] santhosh ravi:
Since the j7 prime never recieved any bootloader upgrades it is possible to downgrade. I would suggest upgrading to oreo however,or maybe installing android 10 custom roms. anyway, to install stock 7/8 go to this link and enter your device model and country and download the latest stock firmware for you. then download odin . once you have both downloaded, unzip both of them, and open up odin. When you get you should see ap, bl, cp,csc . press the 4 buttons mentioned before and go to where you extracted the stock firmware, and you can select the appropriate file. Then boot your device to download mode by holding volume down, power and home button at the same time for 5-10 seconds. press continue. Then connect your phone to your pc, and press start in odin.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] anthony001:
why oreo? and whats the difference between a normal android 10 and a custom android 10? do i need to root to install custom android 10? also if i upgrade will my files be deleted? how much disk space is needed?
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] santhosh ravi:
oreo is the latest official firmware recieved by this phone. There is no official android 10 rom for this phone. Yes you will likely lose all your data.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] anthony001:

[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] RBDoMGaM:
You can flash firmware of any county, since is for the exact same model you have (ex: SM-G610) there's no problem. But keep in mind some have bootlogo/apps from operator, and/or extra functionality s/bloatwares.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] Didgeridoohan:
With the caveat that I'm really bad at Samsung, I'll try to give a couple of answers. Sounds like you have the gist of it though...

Unlocking the bootloader is necessary to install anything custom, yes, and it does reduce the security of the device but mainly if someone has physical access to it. Keeping the device encrypted can help protecting your data though. There are some devices that allow locking the bootloader with custom firmware installed, but those are few. General rule: don't even try. I've seen some talk from people at Google about letting custom ROMs be certified, so that you could lock the bootloader with them, but currently there's nothing like that (that I know of). Once in a while I see people talking about trying to sign their images to lock the bootloader, but IMHBCO it's not worth the effort (if it's possible). If you're going custom, keep the bootloader unlocked.

About SafetyNet, it's an API provided with Google's play services and can be used by apps to check if a device's security has been compromised. Far from all bank apps will be using this and many instead have their own ways of detecting a "tampered" device (more on that below). SafetyNet will trigger from a number of things:

Unlocked bootloader

Custom ROM

Root

Etc...

So, as you see it's not only rooting that will cause you problems. There are ways around it though, mainly with the help of Magisk.

When it comes to what bank apps will detect, that could include a custom ROM, root apps, files on your device, Magisk, etc. They're often much more picky than SafetyNet even...

If you need help with getting SafetyNet and banking apps working on a custom ROM, with Magisk, I've got a few resources and tips collected here:

https://www.didgeridoohan.com/magisk/HomePage

Regarding security and custom ROMs it's pretty much the same as on a stock device. Don't install weird apps from outside the Play Store, don't click links in emails, etc. On to of that, another thing to look out for is SELinux. Don't use a ROM that has it disabled. It's quite important for the security of the OS... And if you do root, be careful with what apps you give root access, since an app with root access can do whatever it wants.

No idea if this cleared anything up or just created more questions. If there are Samsung specific stuff I've gotten wrong or missed I hope that someone that actually knows what they're talking about shows up...
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] dude777:
Hi Didgeridoohan,

Thank you for taking the time to comb through my queries and I believe you have answered what I was looking for. So it has dispelled any myths and misconceptions of custom roms.

Personally I use the phone most and my significant other uses my phone for some games. So physical access is not likely to fall in the hands of someone else unless I lost it. Encrypting the phone is a good safety measure, I assume this is something that can be done in the settings of the OS?

With banking I guess I will have to install and see if it works out, otherwise I don't mind going to a phone web browser and do it that way.

I appreciate your link for further info of Magisk, I will be reading through the page to get better insight.

Regarding SELinux, I had seen this on my phone though it says SE for Android Status and says 'Enforcing' and on the Custom ROM on my tablet in the settings it also says 'Enforcing'. So I can assume that its ensuring the security of the OS.

I didn't have the intention of rooting as I thought I can root at any point in time but if its good practice to do it when flashing the custom ROM please let me know.

I had planned on installing TWRP and use either Lineage or crDroid (kinda leaning to this one). They both are supported on their website so I don't think I will run into issues.

Once again thanks for your help and advice on the custom ROM, I think my questions were broad and it may not be Samsung specific as there are features I know I will lose but have never used when I had the original ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] Didgeridoohan:
Yes. Just make sure that any ROM you choose is compatible with encryption. And remember that if you ever want to remove the encryption you'll have to wipe the device.

Correct. That's the way it should be if you want to keep some security on your device.

You can wait with rooting. If you don't have any need for it, why bother? I use Magisk to hide the fact that I have an unlocked bootloader (and to hide Magisk from some apps), to use a custom hosts file (for adblocking) and for app backups (I use Swift Backup, works great).

There are some things you'll lose when unlocking the bootloader on a Samsung, due to the tripped Knox fuse. I can't say much about that though, since I don't do Samsung...

Have fun!
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] dude777:
Thanks Didgeridoohan,

This has given me some confidence in going forward with custom ROM. I will make some backups and take measures and if it doesn't work out I can go back but I probably wont :).
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] shiftear:
I've been running LineageOS on my Exynos S10e for a few days now and it's great, better battery life than on Samsung's firmware too from what I can see.

Settings say encryption is enabled. I'm assuming on /data only, I'll have to poke around as I've been away from Android for a while and I haven't been keeping up with what's going on.

I had to use the Magisk props module (selected the same phone model) to pass SafetyNet and enable Google Pay. Banking apps here in Australia don't seem to care, at least CommBank, Bendigo, AMP by I did select them in MagiskHide just in case.

If you decide to go for it, remove all your accounts before flashing the LineageOS recovery. I didn't and wasn't able to flash recovery until I re-added and removed them (Factory Reset Protection kicked in apparently). Smooth ride after I did this.

If you don't like the LOS gestures use Fluid (FNG), I love how customizable it is. You can hide the navigation bar in Termux by running:

su

props qemu.hw.mainkeys 1

Good luck and feel free to ask me questions if you have any!

[Google Pixel 3a Questions & Answers] Pixel-3A:
Hi,

Does anyone here know if there is a way to fix (unlock) an encrypted/locked bootloader by shorting pins on the motherboard? I know this sort of thing is done on some computers that have a locked BIOS. I have a Verizon locked Pixel 3A that is as good as a brick to me right now because it is locked into Google spyware. I'd be willing to try some risky stuff to possibly unlock the bootloader. When I have the phone apart, maybe I'll also take out the sensors and cameras for good measure. I basically just want to turn it into a secure Linux or Graphene phone. So, taking the phone apart might be part of the solution regardless.

I don't know which chip would need to be shorted or how to short the correct chip or if this would work at all. Though I am thinking that maybe it would be Google H1C2M Titan M security chip or the STMicroelectronics ST33J2M0 ARM SecureCore microcontroller. I know it's a long shot, but I thought I'd ask to see if anyone had any insight in this matter.

Thanks.
