Hey folks, hows it going. Great things on this site!!! The prob I am having, when I try to use a pic as Homescreen wallpaper, the pic gets blown up, showing only a portion of the pic. Any way to scale the pics in the Neo Edition Clean ROM by Erofich so the whole pic is viewable? I know w/the Neo theme the pic only shows in right side portion of screen, but any help w/this would be appreciated. Have tried many diff sizes, no luck!!

Added screen shots of pic and how it looks applied as background

How Just the pic looks:

[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] CaptianXLAB:
Bootloader unlocked, rooted with magisk (patched boot img) but I didn't find any checkboxes to disable dm-verity/AVB in magisk when patching the boot image.

Now I want to change NotoColorEmoji.ttf file in /system/fonts but I couldn't find a way to mount system as RW until I found this:

https://xdaforums.com/t/script-android-10-universal-mount-system-r-w-read-write.4247311/

The flashable zip there, needs dm-verity to be disabled to work. What is the safest method to disable dm-verity? (Flash the image with an empty one? or run some fastboot oem command?)

Has anyone else used SystemRW script on ROG Phone 5 here?

You cant mount System R/W in Android 11.

You will have to use a Magisk Module to get it done.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] CaptianXLAB:
Magisk module would be the easiest way, yes... Can you mention the name (or link) of the module? It'll be the perfect way. "Load these files instead of those" and nothing on system will be actually modified. (and I think, with this way, I won't need to disable dm-verity / AVB either)

Please don't use thread replies as chat messages 😅

I used ASUS's official unlock app on ROG Phone 5 support website. (I couldn't care less about warranty tbh, didn't need it in last 4 phones I've owned... and I hate system updates anyway)
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] CaptianXLAB:
Update - I tried the Universal SystemRW Script by lebigmac using TWRP and it worked perfectly! Disabled dm-verity automatically and system can now be mounted as RW on my ROG Phone 5 ^^

More details here:

https://xdaforums.com/t/script-andr...t-system-r-w-read-write.4247311/post-85878833

(and to think I did all of this, just because I want iOS emojis on my phone... lol)
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] lebigmac:
Hi @CaptianXLAB thanks for your feedback. I'm happy you like my script and that it works well on your device. The script is not perfect yet but it gets the job done on most devices and I'm adding better compatibility with every new version ;)

By the way new version is coming soon and it will have auto-resize feature as well as some important bugfixes!

Enjoy a fully read/write-able device! :love:(y)

The script automatically disables both dm-verity and verification using the included avbctl binary (aarch64) !

Are you sure about that? ;)
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] CaptianXLAB:
I'll extract the currently working (modified) super image using dd as a backup as well, reflash the original read-only stock super image that I've backed up before, and try the new version when it's released, whenever I find the time 😄

Keep up the awesome work! 😌
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] lebigmac:
@CaptianXLAB thanks for the kind words. You're welcome. Make sure to subscribe to the project thread and you won't miss any future updates.

Could you please send me the rest of your log files from this folder? Thanks. Your feedback helps to make the script better ;)

/data/local/tmp/systemrw_1.32/log/

Which firmware are you using? Is it custom ROM or official stock Asus firmware?

By the way I just added your device to the list of successful devices on front page of project thread ;)
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] CaptianXLAB:
Sure, attached both the log files in this reply as well :)
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] twistedumbrella:
I was curious how all this works, since the theory behind the system not being read / write to begin with is to allow the image size to exceed the physical storage space and came across the documentation on how super images work. Might be worth a read for anyone else interested in it.

Implement dynamic partitions | Android Open Source Project

[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] JazonX:
Thanks a lot for the update!

And many thanks to @lebigmac for the amazing script!

Just a question;

* Can we write to other partitions like Vendor ?
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] chairman011:
Giving this a shot tomorrow 💪
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] CaptianXLAB:
I haven't tried it yet, you should be able to, but if you plan to write more data than replace, you might want to adjust the script parameters to resize partitions to have more than 15 MB extra space.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] CaptianXLAB:
Just in case - I suggest you should keep a backup of super image.

You can list all partitions using:

ASUS_I005_1:/ # ls -al --color /dev/block/platform/soc/1d84000.ufshc/by-name/

Spoiler content hidden.

And you can take a backup of the super partition using this code:

dd if=/dev/block/platform/soc/1d84000.ufshc/by-name/super of=/sdcard/Download/super.img.dd

Output of the above code:

ASUS_I005_1:/ # dd if=/dev/block/platform/soc/1d84000.ufshc/by-name/super of=/sdcard/Download/super.img.dd
14680064+0 records in
14680064+0 records out
7516192768 bytes (7.0 G) copied, 33.809053 s, 212 M/s
ASUS_I005_1:/ #

It's always good to have a backup, so if anything goes wrong, you can use:

fastboot flash super super_backup.img

To restore the original super partition. (I didn't need to do this though)

Have fun with the R/W partition, good luck! :D
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] JazonX:
Also, Off topic - Have you got the latest Notocoloremoji from iOS 15 ? :D
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] CaptianXLAB:
Nope - no idea where to get it from. As of now, I'm using iOS 14 emoji font, got it from randomly searching on Google.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] lebigmac:
Hi @JazonX. You're welcome. Yes the script allows you to write to /system, /vendor, /product,... partitions.

The script removes the shared_blocks read-only feature of all sub-partitions embedded inside your super partition.

You can run the included lpdump binary to find out more info about these sub-partitions.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] JazonX:
Thanks a lot for the response Mate! Cheers !
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] chairman011:
I tried with twrp and got a unable to mount error at the end. May I ask what all you did?
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] lebigmac:
@chairman011 Please show screenshot of your error. Thanks! It could be that TWRP related error at the very end...
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] CaptianXLAB:
Try this version of TWRP.

Make sure your device screen/security lock is set to PIN, and enter the pin in the TWRP decrypt screen. It'll decrypt successfully and then, go to Mount and check all boxes (simply mount all partitions available) and then flash the SystemRW Script.

I had the same problem at first (it's a TWRP related issue) but someone responded with that version and it's link in this thread (the same link I attached above)

That version simply worked for me. I got the decrypt screen as soon as TWRP started, entered my pin and it decrypted successfully.

As for the system font change, I suggest you do that with adb shell su instead of any file manager. You'll also need to fix file permissions to chmod 644 after replacing the existing font file.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] chairman011:
Omg 💪🙌 it worked!!! Heck yeah I was able to completely delete bloatware that was one of my main main goals thank you man for the help
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] JazonX:
Hey @lebigmac

Script works on the below firmware.

Version Name - WW-18.0840.2109.188

Release Date - 2021/11/05

Device ZS673KS

-----------------------------------------

I had the previous firmware / Did an OTA, didnt lose any data and then flashed this again after the OTA process was completed.

All good so far.. .
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] lebigmac:
Hi @JazonX did you also use the same TWRP as suggested by @CaptianXLAB in post #25 ?

Did the flashable zip work as expected? Some users are reporting an error 255. Thankfully this annoying error 255 has already been fixed in next version which will be released soon! ;)

@JazonX @chairman011

Could you please send me your log files from this folder? Thanks. Your feedback helps to make the script better ;)

/data/local/tmp/systemrw_1.32/log/

Congratulations! Enjoy a fully read/write-able device! :love:(y)

Be very careful though. Debloating the wrong file can cause bootloop! Make lots of backups before modding stuff ;)
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] JazonX:
Hey Mate;

Yes - Flashable Zip worked without any errors. Didnt do any mods.

Yes - I did use the new TWRP which is posted a few posts above. The previous one was buggy in many other aspects, but got the job done for the time being.

For ROG 5 Users - To gain some space in system, You can delete the Yandex files which is in System/Priv-app/ - which frees up about 300MB. These are not used anywhere, and these apps doesnt appear on the app drawer.
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] Anubarak16:
Tried it as well with my Ultimate but got errors. Is there anything I can do?
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] lebigmac:
Hi @Anubarak16 . Thanks for your log files.

Try smaller custom size such as for example size=20 or less.

Which custom size did you use?
[ASUS ROG Phone 5 / 5s] Anubarak16:
I tried 200, 100 and 60 (logs are from 60) and now 20 with success... sorry for the trouble and thanks for your fast response.

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] kiz84:
Hi all,

Got my Pixel 6 Pro and while battery life has been rubbish but is now settling, I have a weird bug with Google Photos.

I can't access the "memories" properly as every time I click on one I just get a black screen. If I leave the screen on, after about 2 minutes it will show up but God knows what is happening in-between.

I have also noticed that some photos all taken on the same day show up as multiple days on photos. It's fine if I look in a browser Weird as hell. I've tried to Clear cache, uninstalled, reinstalled, cleared data.

Is anyone else having similar issues? There's a Google questions thread with the same issue and it's not been solved yet. Any ideas?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Air:
I seem to have the same problem. My device runs noticeable warm. Google photos lags crazy and the media storage app (you have to show system apps) seems to use 20GB storage. Something is wrong. Were you able to fix this?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] kiz84:
I ended up speaking to Google over chat and they sent me a new device but it's got the same issue. Accessing memories still gives me a black screen.

Maybe this is some weird Google Photos caching thing. I'm gonna see if it settles after a few days
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I haven't had these problems (yet) and I've been using Google Photos a ton since I got the phone last Wednesday. Apps up to date? On the .036 OTA?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] kiz84:
Yeah apps are all up to date and rocking the 0.36. Weird.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Air:
@kiz84 could you check what your "media storage" app shows as user data? mine shows 20.78GB that's insane.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] kiz84:
Where is the media storage app?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Air:
settings -> apps -> all apps -> three dots and "show system" then search for "Media Storage"
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] wilbur-force:
my memories works fine

device doesnt run warm on google photos

but my user data for media storage is 28.10gb

thats about 10gb of video and 17gb of photos. A quick check shows the video size to be about right. im not going to count up the images sizes :D
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] kiz84:
Thanks! It's 18.55 GB!
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] wilbur-force:
Just connected my phone to my PC and yes I do have over 20gb of media on the device !
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] kiz84:
I think the media size is ok because I have a lot of WhatsApp stuff in there too. Memories sometimes appear and sometimes are just blank. If I click on them, they just appear black. Weird. Must be a bug surely.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] kiz84:
@wilbur-force in case you're still having this black screen issue with memories, it seems to have solved itself. I didn't do anything tbh but now they are working fine 🤷‍♂️
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] kiz84:
Sorry, wrong person I meant @Air ! Please see above 😆
[Android Head-Units] ciripian:
Hi ! i have TS10 android unit and y try to flas various firmware to able to change resolution to 1280 x 720 and now i have an stuck in boot logo ! Any tool to flash the firmware again ?
[Android Head-Units] rolikr:
I wanted to do a factory reset on my TS10 radio. After the restart, the software was reinstalled but then the car battery was dead. Now I see on the display only the Peugeot logo and nothing works. Is there a way to make the device work again or do I have to send it in. Thank you​
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] chunkey:
lost power while upgrading radio can anyone help, now i am only seeing tri-colour screen.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] ultramag69:
Try reflashing "shipped" ROM - the original Carrier ROM on the Hermes.

Sometimes this works.

Now you know why people advise using the sd card method to upgrade radio roms.... Unless you have a flat battery or manually reset and have'nt Hard SPLed, there isn't much that can go wrong.

Good Luck, cos you're gonna need it.....
[ASUS ZenFone 8] Thranx:
it looks like it has the right frequencies to operate on Verizon, and it will initially connect to the network on boot, but then drops off.

Any ideas here?
[ASUS ZenFone 8] kfeltes:
Hi - Mine arrived over the weekend and I put in my Verizon 5G sim card and i was able to connect to verizon data network. All things data worked.

But I can't place or receive calls as volte isn't working (my account has volte active). I don't have 5G where I live - so I'm on the LTE network.

I opened a support case with Asus this morning - they said to wait 24 to 48 hours for their engineers to review it. They originally told me to call Verizon, which Verizon told me they can't help. Verizon said Asus has to work with them to get the phone certified. I'm not sure what to do at this point except wait for Asus to reply. I will be returning it if they don't get it sorted out very quickly.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] noesi5:
Out of the box I had data only without ability to make calls. After rooting the the phone and installing LineageOS I was able to make calls and and operate the phone on Verizon network without any issues.
[ASUS ZenFone 8] briank6932:
Can anyone confirm this? And if so, why does LineageOS work, but not the default ROM?
[ASUS ZenFone 8] Ponso00:
I just tried it and it depends. I had the exact same symptoms:

- Data worked fine

- Texts works fine

- Calls didn't work at all

And I installed lineage 19 and then everything is normal and great. No idea why though.

EDIT: I installed lineage 19, staxisos, omnirom and all had this problem:

- Data fine, calls, fine, texts could send

- Couldn't receive texts.

After the level 2 verizon tech told me the phone was a loss I returned it. Now after doing a ton more research I found out that it might be because I simply took the sim from my old pixel 4 and popped it in. It seems you need a new sim card or you need to somehow have your line switched to be "cdma-less". Looking at these articles:

r/verizon

r/SonyXperia

OnePlus community

The guide presented on the oneplus community gives me hope I could still use this phone with verizon, but it appears to be a daunting task. If anyone has navigated the customer service and succeeded with this specific phone, I might rebuy it.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] Samitro1:
I have the option to by the SM-G780G which is the Snapdragon 4G version of this phone for 400 EUR which is a great deal in Europe, but I'm not sure if 6GB RAM would be enough. I have the A52 5G with Snapdragon 750G with 6GB of RAM and can feel that it slows down when switching between a lot of applications, having Chrome with multiple tabs open, etc. I can't tell though if this is because of the CPU or the 6GB of RAM. I can see I always have 1GB of free RAM on my device.

I know usage varies and it heavily depends on what you exactly do on your phone but still I would like to hear from users of the device with 6GB of RAM how are they happy with the device in terms of RAM. Much appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Never can ever have too much memory or ram.

My N10+ running on Pie with no scoped storage nominally uses between 5.1-5.7 gb of ram.

Having a 6gb headroom cushion keeps it running fast. Even with the older less efficient ram 12gb has little effect on battery life. Newer ram is about 20% more efficient.

You can easily get by with 6gb but 8 or 12gb be better. I say max it out especially if you multitask.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] 3mel:
every time I look I always have about 3gb of ram free and with the exception of a few apps I mostly leave stuff open and press home.

I've had heavy demanding games stay in memory for 24 hours no problem, but them I'm not a client app for everything type person.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] jclu52:
I stop using Chrome a while ago. My FE 20 5G is always showing less than 4 GB used. It's fine switching among running apps. Occasionally, it will pause a bit.

If you can get good trade-in value, it's worth it. Although I wish the battery can last longer. I guess the 865 chip used in it is not as efficient as 7xx series. My SOT is good but not great.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] lenny.warner:
I've had mine for a bit over 12 months and it's never been an issue. I normally have between 1-2gb free whenever I check. I'm not a huge mobile gamer though apart from the casual puzzle game when I'm bored. Unless you're always running heavy games/apps I don't think the average user would notice it.

How is yours? Is it a common issue or just for me? Thank you

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] da3da1us:
Hi there,

New to this forum, apologies if I mess something up! I'm trying to install Graphene or LineageOS on my Moto G8, but am running into issues getting the OEM unlock code to get the unlock key from Motorola. Fastboot is working -- when I run fastboot devices in my Command Prompt (I'm on W11), it shows me my phone's S# and "fastboot" next to it. However, when I try to run anything else (flashing and OEM commands), I receive this error:

FAILED (remote: 'unknown command')
fastboot: error: Command failed

Does this mean my phone can't be unlocked, period? I theoretically should be able to, according to where I bought it from. I have ADB and fastboot files downloaded, my cmd is in the right dir, drivers have been updated, USB ports and cables changed, nothing changes. I also tried on my Macbook with the same results.

Yes, OEM unlocking is on in developer settings, as well as the other settings I need. The USB protocol is set to PTP. I also followed directions from this blog post on how to manually set drivers. It's set to "MTP USB Device" right now.

Any advice would be appreciated, thank you! Apologies if I do this wrong.
