Hi Friends

One of my friend has accidently reset his "one plus 7T" phone to factory mode .

I want to recover photos and videos from this phone.

As phone memory is hidden by manufacturers and is not accessible easily , I want some help to make image of phones internal memory.

I have read that I will have to do following so that memory will be accessible -----

1) Root the phone.

2) Enable USB debugging in developer options.

Is anything else is also required besides this ? Is there any highly reliable software / hardware ( not like cellebrite which is exorbitanatly costly) which can root the phone irrespective of make /android version ?

I am fearful that if something goes wrong in the process phone may get damaged permanantly .

How safe it is to root the phone ?

Can someone pls. suggest a good software having inbuilt drivers of all latest phones and which will make forensic imaging of phone's memory ?

Thank you.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 1890170:
You already know it:

1. Phone's Android must be rooted

2. USB-Debugging must got enabled

If these 2 requirements are fulfilled then you can fetch the partition that holds the userdata via dd command.

Here example of a related UNTESTED Windows command script:

@echo off & setlocal
set "dump_directory=userdata"
set "dump_location=C:\USERDATA"
rmdir /S /Q "%dump_location%"
mkdir "%dump_location%"
adb devices
for /F "tokens=1,9,11 delims= " %%a in ('adb shell "su -c 'ls -al /dev-block/platform/*/by-name' 2>/dev/null"') do (
set "characteristics=%%a" & set "directory=%%b" & set "block=%%c"
if NOT "?%characteristics%"=="?" (
set "type=%characteristics:~0,1%"
if "%type%"=="l" (
if "%directory%"=="%dump_directory%" (
adb shell "su -c 'mount -o rw,remount %block% /%directory%'"
adb exec-out "dd if=%block% bs=4096 | gzip" > %dump_location%\%directory%.img.gz
goto :dump_done
)
)
)
)
:dump_done
endlocal & @echo on & exit

hi jwoegerbauer

Thank you so much for your help. Can you pls. suggest any windows pc based app ? I am absolutely not proficient in terminal command level work so will prefer any app. which will make sector by sector Image of the memory.

Thanks again

I don't make use of 3rd-party-apps: I do all by means of Windows command scripts ( read: BAT files what by nature are apps ) utilizing ADB as shown above.

Previously I have made a thread for an upcoming PRG simulation game call Mafia Connect and guess what? The game is finally on Open Beta Test!! So now you can download the game directly from xxxxx. As I mentioned earlier, I really wouldn’t not make a thread for most of the RPG simulation game since most mobile RPG simulation’s gameplay is minimal but for Mafia Connect, I really recommend to give it a try if you a looking for a game to kill your time.

They have shared a lot of interesting gameplays and game features in their official Facebook page, so feel free to check it out if you are a big fan of RPG simulation game. They are having a OBT survey too on their page. So, feel free to write down you suggestion xxxx.

This is for the Snapdragon S21. I flashed my Verizon one to the U1 firmware pre-beta. I was able to get into the beta by popping out my Sim, logging out of Samsung Members/All Samsung. Then rebooting in airplane mode. Then logging into the members app with a different Samsung account(not sure if that matters), then in benefits at the bottom, I could register. Upon registering, it said my sim didn't match my phone, I popped my sim in and then it said I was registered after clicking it again. Grabbed the OTA URL with canaray per @KokosTech 's instructions.

Instructions below are taken from the S21 Ultra thread by @KokosTech

S21 Snapdragon OTA URL: http://fota-secure-dn.ospserver.net:80/firmware/VZW/SM-G991U1/nspx/6556537300b7401998e7cecc78bbdf58.bin?px-time=61907a56&px-hash=a05de87504b0032df4c4262041550167&px-wid=5820367-WSA210915025413&px-wctime=2021-09-15%2002:54:13&px-unum=&px-nb=UGtezEZ854jbmFcvWGxLEA==

How To:

Rename [name].bin to [name].zip and paste it into the adb folder

Enable USB Debugging from the Developer Options

Reboot your phone

adb start-server

Trust the computer on your phone

adb reboot recovery

With vol-up and vol-down go to ADB Update and press the Side/Power button

adb sideload update.zip

Thanks @KokosTech ! Once I got the banner for it, I knew I had to grab this URL for everyone else that is needing it.

[Android TV General] Toom_Raider:
Hi!

I have a iiyama te6503mis-b1ag and was playing around with it. It has android so you can install apps, but you either have to download an apk from the browser and install it from the finder or install it from a USB stick using the finder.

I tried using Aptoide but when I try to install an APK it says "unknown apps can't be installed by this user" although both the system and the app itself have permission to install unknown apps. It has this issue too for installing APKs from within other apps. I can just install APKs from within the build in finder.

I also tried installing both play services and play store, but when I open the play store it immediately crashes.

Does anyone know how I can get either Aptoide or the play store working?
[Android TV General] marlen07:
Enable install from unknown sources in settings security section
[Android TV General] Toom_Raider:
No that doesn't work. As I said: both the system and the app itself have permission to install unknown apps.
[Android TV General] marlen07:
Download kingo root https://root-apk.kingoapp.com/kingoroot-download.htm

install it, open it connect wired/wireless mouse, press get root, wait for it to get root, if it is stuck at 90%, press back and an error will appear, ignore it, close the app, delete kingo root from settings app section. turn off and turn on again, then you will have root, then try to install any app form aptoide, it will say root is detected, would you like to use root to install apps? click yes and wait for the app be installed.
[Android TV General] de3ph4xx0r:
I had the same problem, i bought an iiyama 55" touchscreen with iiware 9.0

The solution is very simple and works:

- Activate developer mode in the settings (tap on build number several times)

- Enable USB debugging

- Download and unpack adb platform-tools

- Move desired .apks to platform-tools folder

- Connect to adb via WiFi or LAN connection

Example: adb connect 192.168.1.1

Install the app using the following command:

adb install kodi.apk

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Yuna:
Hi2all!

I have Diamond 1.93 ROM, and i am using WiFi @ home & work.

But on other places i must use EDGE or GPRS (no 3G networks).

Question is simple - each time i want to use EDGE i need to go into settings -> connections and set that programs using internet should use "this" connection.

How to "teach" my diamond to switch automaticaly i.e when wifi connected - use wifi for internet, otherwise - edge.

Thanks for replies!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] axelpix:
If Wifi (or wired ActiveSync connection) is already connected, it will be used for Internet. If not, the device will try to etablish an Edge or GPRS or UMTS connection.

If you don't want the tool to automatically connect to EDGE etc. use nodata.cab (search here in this forum) to disable / enable the connections when needed / not needed.

What I'm still searching for, is a solution to somehow priorize the available connections. Like first try to find an open WLAN and only if there's no WLAN available then ASK to open a mobile connection. Mobile data connections are still expensive for most of us and so the automatical attachment is bad. On the other hand, keeping Wifi always open consumes to much battery.

Has bought the device second-hand from a comp firm with a guarantee for 1 month:rolleyes:. After 1 month of no problems working the gadget began to turn off by itself at first on 27 % of the battery (original) :confused:.

Then 32, etc :(.

I has thought, that problem is in old battery. Has bought new CS-execsl with 1750mAh, but the device continued to switching off without any system/sequence :mad:.

It practically is not switching off when it on the charge! The hard reset is tried. Has already passed 5 months, the firm does not respond. At a full charge on both bateries it is switched off in 5 minutes of work/ full loading of the processor.

How it is possible to solve a problem? The service centre puts the overestimated sum.

Where can I found the newest ROM /shoul this help?

Can it be the hardware problem?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Baly23:
Yes!

It's a battery problem...

I had the same problem... at 27 -33%

probabily some unofficial charge set (like the car adapter) could damage your battery.

Don't buy another original battery, use ebay. The original it's like 60€, but on ebay is like 40€...

Hello to everyone, i`m a newb here but i`ve found a way tho add new cities to AccuWeather. I´ve just upgraded my phone to TNT.20273 Series "BETA" (Vanilla/Official/Professional), and one if the thigs that i would like it`s to have my city on it, So searching in this forum and in the internet i found a simple way to do what i whanted.

I find the file on my phone called HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml that is in the windows directory copied to my computer opened with notepad, be carefull that it`s read only you have to take this protection off go.

"Then go to accuweather.com and search for your city. In the url in the address bar, after it says .com, there will be a section that goes something like /us/”state name”/”city name”, where state and city names are the names of your state and city. If you live in the US, you location code will begin with the prefix NAM and will be like this: NAM|US|”state name”|”city name”. Europe’s prefix is EUR and will be like this EUR|”country name”|”country area”|”city name”. It is similar for other continents and countries" (thanks to this forum for this part)

And i`ve added a new comand line similler to another that i have from my country

Ex: <city name="Leiria, PT" loca="EUR|PT|PO011|LEIRIA" land="Portugal"/>

the original was:

<city name="Lisboa, PT" loca="EUR|PT|PO012|LISBOA" land="Portugal"/>

Close notepad put the permitions on read only, see in your phone if the program (accuwather) is working or not on task manager, copy the file you have just made to the windows directory on your phone replacing the one that exists, soft reset and it`s done. It worked on my Wizard.

For security if something goes rong it`s better you make a backup of the file , in case you do something rong.

Hope it helps:cool::cool::cool:
