How to update to latest build without losing data , is it possible to simply flash rom only?
[Samsung Galaxy A21s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] NuzzaimStark:
grrcorps pls release an overclocked kernel pls, its a all time request
[Samsung Galaxy A21s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] ProgrammingPleb:
This is an experimental build, if you're using this to play games, please use the A11 build since it's more stable graphics-wise.

Even so, don't push the dev to finish the kernel, we should be thankful enough that these custom ROM builds are here in the first place. It can be hard to ensure everything is working well, especially when the hardware is overclocked. You wouldn't want your device to be hard-bricked because of a component failing from the overclock wouldn't you?

If you're upgrading from LOS 18.1, then it's highly suggested you format data, since things will break. If you're upgrading from an older build of LOS 19, then you can just flash the super.img file, without formatting data, but if things break then you will have to do so.

I'd highly suggest using Swift Backup to restore the app data when you restore the phone later.
[Samsung Galaxy A21s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] johnny95:
Do I have to follow the same steps if I'm upgrading from LOS 18?

Btw, great job!

[Samsung Galaxy A21s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] grccorps:
Just to check, which Android version were you on when flashing the ROM, 10 or 11? You must update to 11 before installing this ROM, as flashing this on top of Android 10 will cause bootloops.

Also, if you need to update to 11, I suggest you don't go beyond the version with U5 binary, as anything beyond that will permanently prevent downgrade to 10

I thought the same when I first flashed this ROM, but then I noticed that it doesn't have boot animation, so I just waited until it finally showed the welcome screen. It took about two minutes anyway. It is working very smoothly and faster than LOS18, at least in my case.

PS: I just hate the lack of an option to switch the navigation bar (I am used to having the back button on the right, and the recent apps one on the left, but now I can't change it)
[Samsung Galaxy A21s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] ayman9321:

After some research my phone seems to be on binary u8. Is it possible to install any custom rom on it ?
[Samsung Galaxy A21s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Valla45:
Hey guys,

Same question others are having.

I am trying to use this or the LOS 18.1 for now but being on Binary U8 I think that is why I am getting stuck in boot after the reset.

With a FRP Hijacker I can get into the recovery and finish the steps only to get stuck while trying to boot and I assume its because of the Binary incompatibility.

Is there any way to downgrade Binary so I can install a rom before a newer recovery compatible with U8 comes out?

And will any U8 recovery that releases work or would it need to be specific to this device or brand?

Is TWRP something that could work?

Thanks very much,

Hayden.

File transfer to pc (windows 10) doesn't work with android 11 based custom rom (Only sounds when connect usb cable to pc and click on file tranfer option in usb preference in phone then also sounds but Device doesn't show in windows file explorer). It doesn't work.

But other option in usb preference like ptp, usb tethering, charging work.

I reverted back to android 10 to check whether it's my usb cable fault or any other problem, it again worked on android 10 custom rom. Then I again flashed android 11 based custom Rom but file transfer with usb doesn't work.

I think it is a problem or bug with android 11.

If any guy has it's solution or anyone's file transfer option working with usb on android 11 based custom rom, plz tell.

I have redmi note 4 device.
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 1890170:
Custom ROMs - as name implies - are after-market ROMs, have nothing in common with Stock ROMs what come with Android device.

Hence some features you expect may not be present or may not work. Live with this.

You should also report this issue to developers of the Custom ROM you use, IMO.

[OPPO A54] SubwayChamp:
adb reboot fastboot, in the exact same time that the command ends its process, disconnect USB from device, just 2 seconds, and reconnect again, it will show a fastbootd screen with the exact same menu that recovery.

Pressing and tapping on the recovery version also leads to download mode, specially useful for Qualcomm models.

This works for many Realme devices. Anyway, in a locked device, there’s no much to do through.

Hello

Hope someone can help I cannot find a definitive answer hopefully in layman's terms for this problem.

Redmi Note 8 Pro Bergonia 6gb ram 128gb storage Miui 12 Global

Tried CFW 2020 Anti-Brick Corvus ....., Afterwards Phone booted then went completely dead apart from power light when connected to usb

Came accross SP Flash Tool this did help, phone now boots, all seems ok apart from when in fastboot when connecting usb to PC/laptop (tried several cables with a PC and laptop using USB 2.0 all worked prior to trying CFW) all with same result phone stays in fasboot for approx 20 seconds then reboots. Don't know if this is relevant, if I put the phone into fastboot and do not connect to usb, fastboot remains on. Is there anyway I can install twrp and root, or am I stuffed?

Thanks

Hello,

Ive been looking for a way to make submenus in start menu,

is it possible?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] hargibi:
I would guess quick menu is the thing you are looking for :)

Search the developement and hacking forum!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] eranyanay:
no, its not what i meant

the option i found related to quick menu in search is the little menu on the right that shows the applications currently running on device.

What i want is the ability to explore beyond start > programs,

for examples to be able to open another popup window with the icons and folders inside programs,

or start > settings > Connections

like when you go on your PC to start > programs and see all your programs installed.

that kind of thing.

is it possible?

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] rhedgehog:
Definitely quick menu.

Yes it has the task manager thingy on the right hand side, but it also changes that default behaviour of the start menu

As you can see, it allows you to browse all the folders in the menu right from the start button.

you can get it from http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-quickmenu-v2-7.html
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] frederikk:
The problem of quick menu is that it is small... so hard to use with the finger...

The only thing i found was given : create a new folder. Than when you click on it it will open a window ( i know it's not perfect... ) but you will have access to many programs.... put some links in this folder...

Didn't find better for now :(

Wisbar has an option to have a large start menu, with the functionality you want. And frankly, it's not that memory intensive.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] tboy2000:
Ok i have done it. Actually last night on my sister's Ignito.

Its a long process but works. You have to use Resco Explorer to navigate to Windows/start menu. In that folder you will see Programs and Settings Folder. Add new folders here such as Travel, Web, System, AV, etc. Make sure hidden files and files in rom are shown in Resco options. Open Programs folder and copy the Office Mobile and Games folder shortcuts. Go back to Start menu folder and paste those shortcuts there. You will now have Travel, Web, System, AV, Office Mobile and Games folders. Go back to Programs folder and now you have to select and copy all the relevant shortcuts and paste them into the appropriate folders in the start menu folder. Its a bit of a chore but only needs to be done once. Exit Resco Explorer. Open Settings and go to Menu icon. Now uncheck all the apps that are ticked to show in the start menu. All boxes should be clear. Now when you click on the Start menu, only folders should show and you can open any up to show only apps releated to its category. Programs folder will show everything. The only thing to maintain is when you install a new app, remember to go back into explorer and copy the shortcut file from the programs folder to the relevant new folder. Likewise when you uninstall an app, delete the shortcut from the relevant folder using explorer.

This way you keep the large finger friendly menu.

I have done this for years on my phone. Works well.

I havent been on here for quite a while ( 5+ years ). As a result Im a little ( well alot ) rusty with this stuff.

I fouund in the past that this is the goto place for any info any any device. I have rooted, put custom recoveries and roms on alot of different

devices based on the guides from this site and they always work.

I recently acquired an Amazon Fire HD10 2017 so my short term goal is to get a real OS on it. There is a great guide on here by k4y0z that seems like its working well for alot of people. Time to give it a whirl.

I'm looking for a way to actually delete/uninstall gmail from system.

I know you can do a command in adb to uninstall, but that just disables the app and leaves the files in the partition.

Looking for a way to actually delete the file, and when i install it through Play Store, it just installs like a regular app, not as system app.

I've been looking through files with MiX explorer. But I'm scared if i delete the file i find, that it bricks my phone after reboot.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] FizzyAps:
it shouldn't

root and use system app remover
[OnePlus 9 Pro] terlynn4:
I'm rooted and use debloater module in magisk to delete system apps. I like that I can save the list of apps I want to delete and just flash the module after each update to repeat the process.

Deleting an app folder shouldn't break anything, but if you ever have concerns just rename the folder instead of deleting. That way the system can't find it, but it's still there if you need it back.

Why are you reinstalling it if you want to delete it?

Maybe look at systemize module to move it from system to data if that's what you are trying to do

That doesn't work.

It is only able to delete the updates. System apk remains.

According to the app it is located here:

I use alpha backup pro to delete gmail (and many other apps), which will permanently remove a system app (need root), however, if you want to do it the safe way, use de-bloater (playstore), which removes apps via magisk, i.e systemless, so you can revert if you f something up. cheers
