I flashed AP file only (and disabled vbmeta) from T976B to my T970 then went to recovery and wiped data and it booted right up with A12.. I then took the boot.img and patched with latest magisk/canary and flashed it and now it's on A12 and rooted.. haven't tested much yet but seems everything is working.. it does say it's a T976B in settings but not a big deal for me.. you probably don't need the whole AP file but who knows lol

I wouldn't recommend flashing anything other than AP files though.. not sure if the BLfileswould cause a brick but the A11 T970 BL files seem to boot T976B A12 AP files no problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 / S7 Plus Guides, News, & Di] AhmedMomen:
Wow i never knew it was possible to flash a different model number, nice though, well that's certainly one way to do it. I'm not into these deeply techinal stuff so i might just wait.

When the T970 update comes out you could flash it so that everything returns to normal right?

A12 had a lot of issues on my S21 Ultra, scrolling, bad adaptive refresh rate implementation, terrible battery life, general jitteriness and lagginess, poor text scaling on notification shade, etc. Bad enough for me to have to downgrade to A11.

Could you possibly post your experience with A12 on the Tab S7 when compared to A11? I'm very wary of updating my Tab S7 to A12 because of the bad experience on the S21U.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 / S7 Plus Guides, News, & Di] Cosmox_:
I flashed the European version, and I live in Europe so yes

Root works fine with latest magisk canary build, you just need to patch the boot image once you already flashed android 12 (flash android 12, wipe data, boot then install magisk v 0c1f6881 alpha, patch boot img, reboot to odin 3.14 patched, flash the patched boot image and it will reboot fine with rooted kernel without need to factory reset)

Also, android 12 stock recovery does not have the wipe cache option, you can only perform factory reset if your tablet is not booting so a little bit frustrating
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 / S7 Plus Guides, News, & Di] Cosmox_:
What version of magisk did you use? You must be on canary build for A12 rooting.

[Android Head-Units] Malcyb:
Hi,

First post on here so go easy on me 🙂… hope this is a topic the forum can help me with. I’m looking to take my first step into the world of Android head units and install one in my van. One thing I’ll want to add is a proper 360 birds eye view camera. I see there are plenty of reversing cameras that build up a pseudo 360 view when reversing however this won’t help me, I need something that will help me drive forwards into restricted spaces so it must have forward and side facing cameras too. I’ve seen that the Teyes CC3 can be specced with a system like this which might tempt me towards buying one, however seen enough negative comments about Teyes to make me unsure. Can anyone recommend a good, reasonably priced 3rd party 360 camera system that could be easily integrated with any other Android HU (e.g. considering an Atoto S8 as an alternative)? And what would I need to spec on the HU to integrate with it? I’m based in the UK.

Thanks

[General Questions and Answers] kikinovak:
Hi,

I just bought an old Samsung Galaxy A5 (SM-A500FU) phone for experimenting purposes. I'd like to install LineageOS on this phone.

Apparently the phone has already been fiddled with. When booting into Download mode, it says "Current binary: Custom". So I downloaded the official firmware from sammobile.com and flashed it using Heimdall (I'm running Linux on my laptop):

heimdall flash \
--APNHLOS NON-HLOS.bin \
--MODEM modem.bin \
--SBL1 sbl1.mbn \
--ABOOT aboot.mbn \
--RPM rpm.mbn \
--QSEE tz.mbn \
--QHEE hyp.mbn \
--sec sec.dat \
--BOOT boot.img \
--RECOVERY recovery.img \
--SYSTEM system.img.ext4 \
--CACHE cache.img.ext4 \
--HIDDEN hidden.img.ext4

The official LineageOS documentation for my phone states to unlock the bootloader via the "OEM unlock" option in the developer options. Unfortunately this option is not showing on my phone, and judging from the number of blog posts on the web, I'm not the only one who's having this problem. Unfortunately the "solutions" offered on the web are not working, and most of them seem to be clickbait trash anyway.

Which leaves me clueless on how to unlock my bootloader. Any suggestions ?

PS : if you want to help, please post a method that works in your reply. Not some weird invitation to Discord, Telegram or some other obscure communication channel. This forum will do perfectly.

Hello kikinovak,

i have the same problem, but with a win10-pc. Because there is Stock-Android 6 on the mobile phone, there is no "OEM Unlock" in the developer options... Odin finds the device in fastboot mode, but i've to unlock the bootloader first...

Not really an advice, but who knows... ;o)

on https://www.getdroidtips.com/oem-unlocking/ there is a new (but not helpful for me) info:

For devices launched prior to 2015, type the following command: fastboot oem unlock.
[General Questions and Answers] aboreduser:
Hello,

Create a Windows VM and pass through all USB-input. It makes a lot easier!

You have to download the Samsung Drivers & Odin3 to your PC - install them.

Boot your phone ->ADB enabled (you don´t need the OEM-Unlock function, since it unlocks itself while flashing TWRP)<- into download mode (Vol. down + home + power).

Now flash your device specific TWRP with the AP-button using Odin3.

Make sure to uncheck auto reboot in Odin!

Unplug your phone, and hold Vol. up + home + power to boot into TWRP.

If you want to flash Lineage 18, make sure the TWRP version is at least 3.2, otherwise you´ll end up with error 7.

Feel free to ask me for help, in case you should need any!

[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] jstoner:
Starting off at version 9, the official P3 Rom thread now lists version 12...

I was under the impression that such devices usually received a max of 3 Android releases. So for P3, that would be 9, 10 and 11

I had also read elsewhere that version 11 will be the final release that Google will issue for the P3

12.0.0 (SP1A.210812.015, Oct 2021)	Flash	Link	c5f3469cfd9ac914377eac1d05eb60bde3b88d109c9e618eecf82a938bad5625
12.0.0 (SP1A.210812.016.A1, Oct 2021, Verizon)	Flash	Link	514272b9973ab900dd92ab7652291498e868d9778be77979291e9ed60c287838

Now I see this

I am not interested in the Verizon release. But there is still SP1A.210812.015 which seems to be unbranded one

Is there any reason behind Google's intention to further support the P3 into yet another Android release?
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
It's more of a time thing. Google typically supports devices for 3 years from their release date. The Pixel 3 was released in October 2018, so its last update is Oct 2021.

Additionally, Google avoids the fragmentation we see among other manufacturers - they use that month's AOSP for the core of the update. It so happens that October 2021 was the official release of Android 12.

But, the Pixel 3 / 3XL have been sunsetted as of that 3 year mark, so they will no longer receive any updates.

The 3a/3aXL will be supported to May of this year; the 4/4XL will be supported to October; and so on.

My Pixel 5 will no longer be supported beyond October 2023. :cry:
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] jstoner:
So those two builds of Android 12 I mentioned above (SP1A.210812.015 and SP1A.210812.016.A1) are in fact the first and last ones for P3..?

Ackward approach to have this version 12 and leave it premature. I m sure there will be some sort of issues with it
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
Yes, the initial release of Android 12 on the Pixel 3 /3XL is also the last update the device will ever receive. That being said, the initial 12 release is quite stable, the only bugs I found were nothing that impaired usability.

I suspect the reason why the P3 / XL got Android 12 for its final release is because of the GSI architecture on Pixel devices. Google doesn't develop multiple ROMs for multiple devices - the only thing really different are the bootloaders, baseband, drivers, and maybe kernel. Android 12 on the Pixel 6 looks and performs exactly like Android 12 on the Pixel 3. So, all Pixels get updated at the same time; the fact that the initial release of Android 12 was the final update on the P3 is more of a coincidence, really.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] jstoner:
Excellent, thank you for the input

Way I see it, from security perspective, there isn't much of a benefit moving from latest v11 to v12 final (if its not to receive any further updates)

Perhaps someone may be tempted for a specific new feature on v12 (?), but so I far, I don't see a need for it
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
To each their own. I disagree on the security perspective; Android 12 introduced a lot of privacy and security features that are a major improvement over Android 11. Even if there are no further updates, that alone would be of some benefit.

Of course, for those still using the P3, there may soon come a time when custom ROMs are safer as they often incorporate the latest kernel fixes and security updates from AOSP.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] neat_moss:
Hello there :) new to the forum, pretty much a newb when it comes to tech talk, really..

But I am a Google Pixel 3 user, just found the news that it will no longer be supported. Asked some friends and they mentioned custom ROMs as a way around this... My old school nature finds all of this ridiculous, but it is what it is, I guess xD

In response to this, my question is when would a user like me consider switching to a custom ROM? "there may soon come a time..." ... what time might that be? When I start to see functions failing? When Android 12 updates globally but not for me?

Additionally, what would be the best resource to finding which custom ROM would fit my needs best?

Currently, my phone works great still. Hopefully I can exist for quite a while and not even think about it... but it works so good that I'd hate to go and buy a Pixel 6 when its security issues that render my device obsolete. If it means a custom ROM before $600, I'll probably take the shot.

Thanks!
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] dcarvil:
When to switch depends entirely on your attitude towards monthly security updates. That would also effect what ROM you consider. Personally I switched about 4 months ago. I chose LineageOS because it reliably receives monthly security updates.

Do you have an unlockable bootloader? If not, all your questions are moot, because you must be able to unlock the bootloader to install a custom ROM.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] neat_moss:
LineageOS was the one recommended to me as well, sounds like a good bet.

"unlockable bootloader" is totally Greek to me though xD. Really have no idea what that means lmao. How might I find out if I have an unlockable bootloader? And if I do... how does one... unlock it? xD

And thanks for the insight!
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] dcarvil:
See the "Unlocking the Bootloader" section in this thread. https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-how-to-root-pixel-3-android-12.4366041/#post-86294311

Also, the LineageOS installation instructions have an "Unlocking the bootloader" section. https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/blueline/install

If you have a Verizon or AT&T variant, you cannot unlock the bootloader.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] neat_moss:
Very cool, thanks! A lot of this documentation makes sense.

Verizon or AT&T variant though... you mean the phone itself? In my case, i bought the phone directly from google and just put an AT&T SIM card into it... is that the same thing?

Thanks!
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] dcarvil:
The AT&T variant would be a phone purchased from AT&T. If you purchased it from Google, you probably have the unlockable version. If you can enable the OEM Unlocking toggle, you can unlock the bootloader. Unlocking will wipe your phone, though, so be sure to backup everything you need.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] neat_moss:
Thank you much! I'll likely be trying this soon enough :)
