[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] narf:
Had a go at putting on Hardspl 3.56 also 3.29. even the forced Usb versions.

I can update to any standard Kaiser/Tytn2 Rom but any of these other cooked roms seem to give me grief.

I even thought perhaps i could run the other original rom update, so i did that and copied the different Nbh files in and renamed to what the original rom was but it still wouldn't allow me to get to where i wanted to get.

Is there any special way i can get Hardspl onto my device?

Can i copy it to the sd card and load it thru a bootloader?

This error 262 is driving me nuts!

I spent well over 4 hours of constant messing about and testing any possible solutions.

plus a further 2 today!

This is my last resort!

I'll be more than happy to donate to these rom developers once i get one working.

Even attempted the manilla AthineOS without luck.

I keep reading about the JumpSPL and SSPL, is anyone able to explain or link to where i can get it for the Kaiser ?

OR is it the same thru the whole series ?

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

There is SOOO much to learn!

The more you know the more you realise you dont know!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] KD8DNS:
Use jump spl first, I reccomend 1.56, then install your spl of choice, I personally use 3.56

Place jump spl on your phone and run it from the phone, keeping your usb cord attached, you will get a tri colored screen. Now in active sync comm settings uncheck allow usb commections. unplug the usb cord wait 30 seconds and plug it back in. then from your pc open the folder hard spl and run kaiserRUU and after its done go back to active sync allow usb connections and flash your ass off.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] narf:
Woo Hoo!!

Finally i got it working, I was beggining to think perhaps there was something stupidly wrong with my pc or the Tytn!

Thank you very much for your reply KD8DNS, Also thanks to b16b After so many hours of mucking round i've finally got it sorted!

Now running Kaiser Diamond V12, it works very well.

Will be looking to change to many other roms in the near future!

Cheers,

Nathan

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] diskwzrd:
I have an app that does not work after Android 8 that I need and there is no replacement in 9 or above. I managed to avoid updating my v30 to v9 and later for a year or so. It accidentally allowed the update to 9 this past weekend while I was camping. All I want to do is roll back to stock v8 or 8.1 (Oreo).

I have enough tech knowledge to follow directions and understand rooting but am having a really hard time finding the "right directions." As I was reading some of them, I found caveats like, "Use X unless you have the delta update and then use Y but not if you want to run Z. For Z, you have to follow this other thread." I also know that using the wrong settings or data file could brick the phone.

So, I'm hoping someone can help me narrow down what sets of directions I need to follow.

Here's what I have right now:

LG V30 (VS996) On Verizon Network

Developer Options Enabled

Android V9

Security Patch Level August 1, 2019

Kernel Version: 4.4.153

Build #: PKQ1.190414.001

Software version: VS99630c

Again, all I want to do is roll back to stock v8 or 8.1 (Oreo).

Bonus would also be a way to stop asking me every day to update or delay a day and just wait until I manually do it.

Thx in advance!!

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] schwinn8:
Note that implied with this process is that you cannot downgrade your firmware without wiping the phone... there's no way to "patch" back to the old version. So, be sure to take backups FIRST.

If you're rooted on the old firmware, you can then disable/freeze/delete the update APKs so that the update warning goes away. But this requires root, so be aware of that. If you don't haven't rooted already, then this is a process of its own, and will require you to go back to Nougat in order to perform that, so you may want to do that before installing the final version of the ROM you want. You can find out how to do this rooting process on the WTF thread, post #193, located here: https://xdaforums.com/t/wtf-lg-v30-...ar-instructions.3790500/page-10#post-76584629

If you don't want to root, that's fine, but then you must endure the update warning process... unless you can find another way to disable the update APKs.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] diskwzrd:
Thank you both. I expected to wipe the phone so that's not an issue. I will first install Nougat, root and then update to Oreo.

There are about 14 Oreo ROMs on that site. Do I just pick the latest one or do I have to pick the earliest one and update that?
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] saravana1453:
Pick the latest one.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alecxs:
you need custom recovery with dynamic partition support
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajbcc:
as I mentioned, I couldn't find any custom recovery which supports my device...

Also, if I did have say TWRP or LOS recovery for my device, it seems I could run fastboot through the custom recovery (fastbootd). Then I assume I could just flash GSI using instructions like these: https://xdaforums.com/t/how-to-flash-gsis-on-devices-with-dynamic-super-partition.4256667/

But it's a moot point because no such custom recovery exists for my device. There are custom recoveries for Tab Active 1 and 2, but not 3. So I'm trying to see what I can do with Heimdall

Also, quote from the above-linked thread in response to someone who asked about flashing using TWRP:

if someone could tell me how to "rebuild the whole super partition with the gsi of your choice", that may help. because if I could convert gsi to super partition and if I could get Heimdall working (e.g. using native Linux version off a live USB or whatever), then I could use Heimdall to flash SUPER (in theory)

On that note, I found a couple of possible leads:

(1) https://xdaforums.com/t/editing-system-img-inside-super-img-and-flashing-our-modifications.4196625/ - shows how to unpack and re-pack super image using lpunpack and lpmake. I am wondering if I could use this to replace the system.img in my existing super partition with the one from GSI. But how to get the vendor.img and product.img? I don't think Heimdall has any command to backup existing partitions from a device

(2) https://source.android.com/devices/tech/ota/dynamic_partitions/implement#factory-images - it suggests that you can use "make dist" to build super.img, but I'm not sure if this requires me to completely rebuild AOSP from source or I can do it from existing system.img (i.e. GSI)

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajbcc:
I ran Heimdall on native Linux rather than on WSL or the Windows version. This worked better and fixed the issues I was having before with Heimdall.

I then tried to flash VBMETA (the one bundled with the GSI) using Heimdall which worked, however my device was then soft-bricked, could only boot into Download Mode, and gave the following error:

ODIN MODE (AVB fail)

vbmeta: Public key used to sign data rejected. (5)

vbmeta: VERIFICATION_DISABLED bit is set.

CUSTOM VBMETA

VBMETA : No sign info

VBMETA ,

I also tried a VBMETA from avbtool, which gave a very similar error on boot:

ODIN MODE (AVB fail)

vbmeta: Error verifying vbmeta image: OK_NOT_SIGNED (3)

vbmeta: VERIFICATION_DISABLED bit is set.

CUSTOM VBMETA

VBMETA : No sign info

VBMETA ,

I managed to restore my stock vbmeta by extracting it from the stock ROM and installing using Heimdall, so my device can boot again, but it's back to vbmeta with verification enabled. How can I resolve this?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajbcc:
I tried to run lpmake, but I don't know my super partition size ("--device super:...") I thought it might be the partition block count from the PIT. but that is 1740800 for SUPER, whereas my system.img has size 2752909312, so surely it doesn't fit inside?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajbcc:
Got it fixed eventually (i.e. I am now able to run the GSI on Samsung Galaxy Tab Active3). I had made a really stupid error when running the DSU command. For KEY_SYSTEM_SIZE I was passing the gzipped system size, not original system image size. This is why the installation always failed after 50%, because it was only installing 50% of the system image. Also another really important thing to note is that after running DSU, you have to restart the system from the DSU notification and not from the normal power menu of the device.

In addition, I did flash "vbmeta_samsung.img" but I'm not sure if this was strictly necessary or not (I happened to notice that vbmeta_samsung.img has the same file size as the vbmeta disable images - 4KB vs 10KB for stock vbmeta). I'm going to be trying to help one of my colleagues to follow the same process, probably in the next few days, so will hopefully be able to report back on whether this flash is strictly necessary.

Also, I found that both Heimdall on native Linux and Heimdall on WSL actually suffer from the same problem. You can only post one command to the device, then subsequent commands fail with "protocol initialisation failed". On WSL I was doing things like "heimdall print-pit --no-reboot" and that's why I was facing issues when flashing. Basically, if you get protocol initialisation failed, just reboot the device and it should work.

stumbled across this post

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=82241115&postcount=70

edit: bytes = block count × block size
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajbcc:
Thanks for pointing this out, but this doesn't help me unfortunately. The number I'm trying to calculate here is the number 4294967296 in that post, which is the one number the guide doesn't explain how to calculate. Also, the PIT doesn't give my block size, only the "block size/offset". This seems to be just a plain offset, as it increases for every partition, even the small ones. So I have no idea what my block size is.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajbcc:
Just ran through the install steps with one of my colleagues (also with Samsung Galaxy Tab Active3) and there was no need to disable AVB as part of the process. We managed to get through with just the vanilla steps from Google. So all that stuff about "vbmeta_samsung.img" was just a red herring.

This issue showed at one or two latest StatiXOS Android 11 builds for mata, after installing Magisk. According to Anay, one the team devs, it could be related to "the kernel thinks you’re in recovery, so it shifts the whole framebuffer 64 pixels".

The fix was to use a kernel from previous builds not affected or to wait until the issue can be fixed with StatiXOS Android 12, because Android 11 builds were EOL.

I love this ROM and am very appreciative of the work you've done to keep my favorite phone off all time going. Magisk compatibility would be a nice addition.

It is fast. I haven't noticed a difference in battery life. Chrome doesn't work. I use the 🦆 browser. Even the 360 mod works. The screen and battery are really easy to replace.
