[General Questions and Answers] clubshrimp:
Hi there, I'm having no luck finding a solution to my problem anywhere.

I'm using a Galaxy S7 running Oreo (I know, old school), and like many phones, it came with a bunch of apps that can't be uninstalled unless you have root access. So, I installed TWRP, and then Magisk v23, and then I installed a root uninstaller in order to remove the apps in question.

However, I use Revolut and an app for the bank I'm with, and so while my device is rooted, I am locked out of both.

What I want is to have the disable-only apps gone, and my device unrooted and back to normal so I can use Revolut and said banking app.

I believe uninstalling Magisk should unroot the device, but without Magisk installed, I can't boot into the system because of TWRP and the whole dm-verity thing. So, I want to replace TWRP with the stock recovery, which, if I'm correct, should achieve the desired outcome.

I downloaded the exact firmware for my phone from sammobile, and the recovery file can be extracted from it easily, but I don't really know how to go about flashing said file, or even if I can. Odin isn't working for me.

I tried flashing the whole "AP" file via Odin (the latest version), but that restored the device back to it's factory state, disable-only apps and all.

So can anyone help me with this? Or is what I want to do here even possible? I'd really appreciate some input / advice. Thanks!

P.S. maybe you can tell, but I'm kind of a noob, so apologies if I'm overlooking something obvious.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Android's recovery where it doesn't matter whether it's Stock or Custom can't be used to unroot Android if it got rooted by TWRP and/or Magisk this because phone's boot.img got tampered by those: you'ld have to completely re-flash phone's Stock ROM to get rid off of all modifications you applied so far.
[General Questions and Answers] clubshrimp:
Okay then, thanks for explaining.

Just to be clear, what you're saying is that it isn't possible to unroot a device and then restore just its stock recovery (to replace TWRP). You cannot undo modifications made to boot.img and therefore must re-flash the stock firmware?
[General Questions and Answers] xdabookam:
What I do with unwanted system apps on other android phones is to remove the .apk from /system by booting into recovery and using the shell/adb with u**x commands (actually move them somewhere they can't be seen by the O/S with mv command).

Also when faced with dm-verity, Magisk just modified the boot.img

and changes fstab to take out verify from system mount & patches init and removed /verity_key.

I was able to uninstall Magisk (only phone mod was unlocked boot loader allowing custom boot over usb).
[Redmi 9 Power / 9T] nikobadboy:
Hi. What are the commands in cmd/fastboot for flashing Pitchblack Recovery on redmi 9t which is on stock android 10/11 recovery from these:

'fastboot boot recovery.img'

or

'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img'

then

'fastboot reboot recovery' and copy latestPitchblackRecovery.zip in sd card/internal and flash it then reboot.

I BOOT or FLASH that recovery.img extracted from latestPitchblackRecovery.zip ? And it will stick it after reboot or it will go back to stock if i have stock rom ? Thx.
[Redmi 9 Power / 9T] ak0ztik:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

At your device hold "volume +" button(do not release the button until you see the custom recovery)

At cmd/adb type "fastboot reboot" press Enter.
[Redmi 9 Power / 9T] nikobadboy:
Ok so i use these commands:

'fastboot devices' - to see if device is connected at pc

'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img' - to flash recovery

'fastboot reboot' - to reboot recovery

Then i must copy in sd card/internal latestPitchBlackRecovery.zip and flash it or this step is not required ? Because i see on ytbe some guys who installed PitchBlackRecovery.zip after they flashed with adb, saiing PitchBlackRecovery need some files to be written from the zip file to function correctly. Thx.

I use this version from here: https://pitchblackrecovery.com/juice/) - PBRP VERSION 3.1.0 for Xiaomi Pocophone M3/Redmi 9T/Redmi 9 Power/Redmi note 9 4G | juice.

I'm asking this because i have that NVT-touchscreen Redmi 9T phone (recognized as lemon not lime) and PitchBlack Recovery is the only one who works in this model and i can't mess around too much.

And one last thing: i need to install a type of 'vbmeta' like i saw in some TWRP/OrangeFoxRecovery ? Thanx again.
[Redmi 9 Power / 9T] ak0ztik:
Not sure about nvt, because i have an fts screen. I just flash recovery.img in fastboot and I'm good to go.

[General Questions and Answers] Talon Pro:
So, i copied the entire contents of my sisters Galaxy S7 thinking that would copy everything for a restore after a factory reset. Well, copying everything back didnt really do anything and now im trying to find where the texts are stored in that backup. Apparently even though it was set to backup to Drive, it did not contain any data, not really surprised there either.

If im wrong and theres no recourse, i dont mind eating crow, but ill be thankful for any assistance.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
What method you applied to perform the NANDroid backup?
[General Questions and Answers] Talon Pro:
I literally copied and pasted it. I did forget about the upload/sync lag in Onedrive, so that might have something to do with it. As in i copied it back before it was all done syncing, so some folders would be empty.

[Samsung Galaxy A10 Questions & Answers] maid97s:
Tittle, how to fix it? Its this model compatible with 64bits roms?
[Samsung Galaxy A10 Questions & Answers] :
Yes, Galaxy A10 is compatible with 64Bit ROMs. The One UI skin that comes installed is 64Bit as well, but running in 32Bit mode. You may have soft-bricked your phone, if the phone doesn't boot up after showing the Galaxy A10 logo and bootloader warning.
[Samsung Galaxy A10 Questions & Answers] maid97s:
it stuck at Galaxy A10 when i install any rom, but i can go back to recovery mode
[Samsung Galaxy A10 Questions & Answers] SubwayChamp:
It depends on how you are installing that custom ROM, you need to previously format data among other steps.

Pre Story

I have a couple of Unihertz Atom Mini (Android 9) as Pet Tracker, its the best option for my usage.

The application setup for each device is very complicated so i decided doing one stockrom for all.

After successful rooting the device and permanent de-encrypting the data partition, i stuck with some problems.

first i used a pin in the stockrom, a restore on a second device did result with not beeing able to unlock the device - pin is correct but can not unlock.

So i did a new stockrom image without a pin, the restore worked, system runs fine, but now it seems the system cannot set a pin code.

for the backup restore operations i use sp tools / readback / download and for the userdata partition TWRP over OTG. The atom mini has no sd_card slot ;)

If i restore all partitions, i get also these Chinese letters in the middle of the screen, by restoring only the default partitions not.

(Yes i did a backup before of each device to be sure not losing the device depending nvram :)

any suggestion how to fix this?

Anyone know what this means in gmail.com?
[G1 General] chorca:
If you starred a message on the device, the message will be starred in your Gmail. Next to the message subject line there is a small star on the left.
[G1 General] damnitpud:
Assign stars to special conversations or messages, or use them as a visual reminder that you need to follow-up on a message or conversation later.
[G1 General] GlobalM3:
ooooooo ok!

Is there a place in the phone to view stared contacts and emails etc...?

thanks!
[G1 General] damnitpud:
yeah when your in the gmail app hit menu, then tap View Labels and choose starred.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] TeckySairam:
recently i bricked my phone and it's in edl mode which I had posted here also where people told me to go to service center and do edl flashing but but will they ask money ig they can't because my phone is under warranty and its just 2 months old so any ideas that they'll ask for money
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] TechieTwinToes:
When you get there, just act like you don't know what happened. Tell them that it turned off during a system update and it's not turning on, and keep all that power user XDA knowledge locked away somewhere :P

Software update failures are pretty common so they won't ask many questions as long as the phone's under warranty, you might be charged a small service fee though. This is just one way I would go about it, there might be better options.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] hiimimtayaz:
Sad to hear that but I guess u should try all available options before heading to the Service center like flashing stock firmware using Miflash tool in EDL mode. If nothing works then service center is the last resort, however IMO they will ask for small amount of fee for restoring the stock firmware.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] TeckySairam:
I'm in service centre right now for gods sake these ******g ppl don't know a little **** I told them my phone is in edl mode they are like kid I didn't understand for f**ks sake they don't know anything and why the fuc* do they even work in these centres they told if its hardware prob the wait for 2 to 3 days if software then 2 hours i told it's in edl mode and it shud be flashed they are not even allowing me to go inside the place of repair it been 1hour since I gave my phone idk but they told what ever prob its free

EDIT - Nig**a took 1 hour 45 minutes for finding it's in edl mode lol they told wait more 1 hour

EDIT - lol I forgot to put they gave my phone they installed miui 12.0.xx idk which one they didn't even lock bootloader I couldn't install the latest update but I downloaded the full recovery from the latest one 12.5.7 its some 3.2gband installed in choose update package in mi updating section and finally everything Is proper
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] TeckySairam:
Sorry for the words I just wouldn't control
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] hiimimtayaz:
It’s all good if it ends all well. However, I am more pleased with your second post. Tinkering Smartphone always seems too easy until it get completely screwed as it was in your case.

And speaking of Staff at service centre, they are just doing their job (though some of them do try to fool the customer seek some monetary benefits indirectly), not all of them are passionate about tech as u or people like us on XDA are. Anyways enough lecturing......

Good luck & Happy Flashing!!!!!

I'm coming from a Mi A3 running stock Android 11 which I love.

The screen on the X3 Pro is a delight to behold for my poor old eyes but there are a few things that either I don't like in the MiUI or just aren't working properly. Is there any way to flash stock Android 11 on this phone?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] thorin0815:
You could take a look at LineageOS, it's pretty much the purest custom rom out there.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Twibble:
Oops, I guess that we can't delete a post!
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Twibble:
Thanks for chipping in thorin0815. Yes I have seen a few "How to" articles but can't seem to find a really good description of how well it runs and what the pros and cons might be. Do you have any idea of how close to the pure Android experience it would be and if there are any major pitfalls or disappointments that have been reported? The phone I have came with an unbelievable 2 year warranty and I am reluctant to flash a system that I might regret at a later date.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] pl1992aw:
If you will use Google Play Store, Google Calendar, Google Pay, or Google Apps, then LineageOS will need some adjustments and modifications to let those Google Apps services work properly. And possibly some banking apps may not work.

Whether each ROM pros and cons are, it is subjective. For example, customizations, for some people it's useless, while some people wants more customizations.

Try and error, flash a ROM and feel if that ROM fits your need. You know what you need, we don't know.

Most users starts with ArrowOS.

Pixel ROMs UI looks like Pixel phones.

LineageOS is completely open source.

I don't know other ROMs.

Read each ROM thread for each features, and possibly read some recent replies for update informations.

Hello guys

I'm from Egypt and there's no official accessories for Google phones

Can anyone recommend a screen protector of any smart phone with the same screen size as pixel 6 so it can fit well to pixel 6 ?

⭐ Prefer any recommendations be based on actual experience ⭐
[Google Pixel 6] Nimueh:
Why don't you use the already existing thread about that here instead of starting another one about it?
[Google Pixel 6] clairelara:
Phone display differs in mm so no phone display will be exactly the same, also some phone has a punch-hole camera in the top center and top corners but the screen-to-body ratio will differ. So better get a new Pixel 6 screen protector which will fit perfectly. I recommend you, Gadgetshieldz screen guard which is a film protector that gives good protection against scratches and cracks, this is more than enough for the strong gorilla glass!
[Google Pixel 6] harryw66:
Hi,

I have fitted other phone's Screen Protectors to my Pixel 6 e.g. OnePlus Nord, and some other I found in my drawer. Not exactly the same size - but covers enough of glass for me.

[XPERIA X1 General] Pinguino1:
Do you know how many people got killed texting on the road?:eek:
[XPERIA X1 General] artesea:
Yes it is possible, you should have a small arrow next to the keyboard icon at the bottom of the screen, tap on this and then you can select from a variety of keyboards including a T9 one.
[XPERIA X1 General] easycure1974:
No there is no T9 keyboard on the Xperia - just the ordinary and very small WM keyboard :)

Install TouchPal and you got yourself a nice thumbfriendly T9 keyboard on the Xperia
[XPERIA X1 General] artesea:
It was there on the demo version I played with some weeks ago.
[XPERIA X1 General] Andy Guts:
You mean that you could select it when you open up the keyboard menu by clicking the little keyboard icon at the bottom of the screen? There is only two options there - Symbol Pad and Keyboard (and then the Options..).
[XPERIA X1 General] easycure1974:
It is not available in the swedish retailversion of the Xperia
[XPERIA X1 General] artesea:
It had the same as the Touch Diamond, T9, Full QWERTY, Half QWERTY, Pen at the bottom and handwriting recognition.
[XPERIA X1 General] easycure1974:
Then they had installed http://www.modaco.com/index.php?act=attach&type=post&id=25258, it is the keyboard from the Diamond and can be used and works fine. But not in Swedish :)

As European customer with Dual-SIM and eSIM Fold3 I'm not familiar, how Samsung and US carriers deliver the Fold3 in the States. According to your post, your fold is a single SIM device, is that right? Or do you have a carrier, that delivers eSIM support only?

In the USA it is one sim slot only. No dual sim, no Esim. On all carriers. Even unlocked
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Talderon:
My like is a like for you but is actually a dislike for the content because it's STUPID that US does not use eSIM more widely.

Where eSIM's are used more than anything else in the US is for Watches. I have a Gear Watch 3 (my Watch 4 is BT only) and it ONLY comes in eSIM and my carrier (T-Mobile) didn't even blink and just activated it. So the SUPPORT IS THERE, just too lazy for widespread adoption. :(

My phone is stuck in a bootloop and I need to at least access my data, but ideally use the phone again.

Here's the info - I've used numbers for easy reference.

Redmi Note 3 Pro

(Kenzo qualcomm snapdragon 650 model msm8956)

1. I forgot you can't do OTA update on rooted phone.

I attempted to update MIUI 8.0.6.0 (Global) to the available MIUI 9.2.3.

2. Now phone is boot-looping

3. Most important thing is to avoid losing my apps and data

4. I'd like to either:

a) return the phone to how it was (8.0.6.0)

or

b) still update to MIUI 10 (10 because I read it could go up that far) or 9.2.3 (as offered via OTA)
