Update: Tablet is in transit and the estimated arrival time still says April 2, but the city the tablet's coming from is only a little more than an hour away from mine. So, it may show up earlier than that. I'll keep you guys posted.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S8] AnonVendetta:
Yeah, that's happened to me too. Sometimes the delivery happened quicker than the stated date. But on one occasion I watched as my package's starting point (less than 8 miles from where I live) suddenly changed to NY, Florida, Texas, Nevada, Oregon, then finally it came to my city. As it turns out, they were air-transporting it around the US. I was furious, that delivery took 5 days longer than the stated date. I think someone somewhere made a mistake.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S8] SavXL:
Update: It arrived today! I'm very excited to see if this little experiment of mine will work. I'm going to try it tomorrow. See you guys then!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S8] AnonVendetta:
Trust me, it won't. But you can try anyway. Be ready to reflash your stock recovery or even a full stock firmware, once you see that I'm correct.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S8] SavXL:
It's probably not gonna work, and I do have firmware ready to flash the tablet back to a factory state. It would be incredible if it did since it's not made for the Tab S8+, but I won't hold my breath.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S8] SavXL:
Update: Yep, it's a no-go. I flashed the same vbmeta disabled file that I used on my Tab S7+, and that worked the same, but when trying to flash the Android 12 version TWRP for the Tab S7+ Android 12 (using flashify since doing it through Odin is too hard to get into recovery mode after rebooting), I'd see the android splash screen with the download mode UI o top of it, and it turned out I was in download mode but with the splash screen as a background. It said that OEM was locked, even though I made sure it was unlocked before flashing. Had to flash stock firmware at that point. So, yeah, it doesn't work. I didn't think it'd work, but it would've been amazing if it did.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S8] Vinsang:
Thanks for trying anyway👍
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S8] AnonVendetta:
Try flashing the recovery img properly with Odin, instead of using Flashify. Then, once flashed, attempt to boot into TWRP from download mode, without letting it boot into Android. My personal guess is that even if you do all this correctly, TWRP still won't work at all, or will have obvious issues if you do somehow get in.

And remember, you won't be able to flash unofficial files (like TWRP/patched Magisk) if your bootloader isnt unlocked *AND* Verified Boot disarmed. So make sure both of those are true before trying.

Flashify is an old app that hasn't been updated in a long time. I very seriously doubt that it will work properly with the latest Android versions, and it may even do more harm than good. Best to avoid such old apps that havent been updated to work on modern devices. Android is a rapidly changing OS, and things that worked worked a few years ago will likely not work now. Use the methods that are tried and true.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S8] SavXL:
I flashed the recovery image through Odin first before attempting to use flashify. The thing is, the timing for getting into recovery mode after rebooting from download mode is so tight that I'm surprised I was able to do it on the Tab S7+, I think they may have made it even harder to do so on the Tab S8 line. It has this stupid two-screen boot up sequence making it stupidly hard to know when to start hold vol+, and the second screen will refuse to show up if I keep holding a volume button. The moment I let go it'll come on, but by then the chance to boot into recovery mode is gone, and I have to try again. I physically can't press and hold vol+ fast enough to make it in time.

I tried to see if the computer could maybe recognize the tablet through either adb or fastboot while it was in download mode so that I could force it into recovery through a command, but neither would pick it up. The computer recognized that something was connected to it, but it wouldn't show up in cmd, only in Odin. I seriously wish that Odin had an option to boot into recovery after flashing some files, that would make life so much easier.

I'm absolutely willing to try again if there's a somewhat reliable way to get into recovery mode from download mode. I'm sure something would happen if everything was done correctly, but whether that something is desirable or not, I'll have no idea until there's a consistent way to do this. They really shouldn't have changed the way the boot up sequence worked. I could boot into recovery on my Tab S4 so easily, but then they did this.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S8] AnonVendetta:
Is the tab rooted? In the Tab S7+ TWRP thread I suggested renaming recovery-from-boot.p as a method to prevent stock recovery from restoring. Then odin flash the recovery img again and just forget about trying the button combos. Let it boot into Android normally. Hopefully the stock recovery won't be restored. Then you can use Magisk app to boot into recovery. Or connect via adb and use the following commands:

adb devices (to ensure the tab is connected

adb shell (to get into a shell environment)

whoami (username should be echoed back as just "shell")

reboot recovery (yes, this an actual command to be typed, but you must be in the Android shell first, which has the proper system permissions to boot into recovery without root)

That should be all you need to do. And as always, unlocked bootloader and disarmed verified boot is required
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S8] SavXL:
I just tried doing that, tried booting into recovery and got this screen [see image]. This is exactly what I got when I tried flashing the recovery and booting into it before. I suppose this happened when a recovery you try to flash is incompatible. It shows that the OEM Lock is on, which it wasn't before, and that Secure Boot is enable, which is wasn't before. I'm not sure why this is the result of trying to do this, but is locks me into download mode. Exiting download mode and reboot brings me back here, so I have to flash stock firmware and factory data reset. You were right. Guess we gotta wait for someone to make TWRP specifically for the Tab S8 line. Oh well.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] ImmortalChanger:
Hello everyone, this is my first post on XDA Forums. I'm trying to build LineageOS 16.0 for a Samsung Galaxy W (GT-I8150), but I'm running into some trouble. I'm following this guide since It's the only good guide I found, but when I run breakfast GT-I8150 as the guide says, it throws build/make/core/product_config.mk:234: error: Can not locate config makefile for product "GT". since this device wasn't and isn't supported by LineageOS, so the repos aren't available wherever it's looking for. They are available elsewhere, but not in the official repos, so it can't find the stuff it needs. For this reason, I need to make breakfast search elsewhere. I already have the links needed, I just don't know how to let breakfast look in those repos.

Device I'm building for: Samsung Galaxy W (GT-I8150)

OS I'm using for the build: Ubuntu Desktop 20.04.4 LTS

CPU architecture: x86_64

This is the complete output of breakfast GT-I8150:

build/make/core/product_config.mk:234: error: Can not locate config makefile for product "GT".
13:18:45 dumpvars failed with: exit status 1
Device GT not found. Attempting to retrieve device repository from LineageOS Github (http://github.com/LineageOS).
Repository for GT not found in the LineageOS Github repository list. If this is in error, you may need to manually add it to your local_manifests/roomservice.xml.

** Don't have a product spec for: 'GT'
** Do you have the right repo manifest?

I also don't have a roomservice.xml file so I can't modify that either. If anyone has a better guide for building LineageOS 16 then please post it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Klael:
I searched the forum but could not find.

I tried RealVGA. Device works OK for most of the applications but sometimes letters are too small to read (if device has a display with 2.6-2.8" diagonal). But it gave me the idea to have smaller top&bottom bars to have larger remaining space on display.

Is there a way to change height (or dpi) of the top and bottom bars, especially for VGA screens?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aiiro:
Search keywords "vijay", "toggletoday" or "toggle today alpha" or something. I remember that with parameters You could shrink the taskbars by pixel size whatever You want. Also dcinobar is a small app that does it but haven't used it. GL.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] N'da:
Search for Nuenobar to hide bottom bar totally and vjtoggle today alpha II and resize your bar in the registry or use a LNK with -configure for parameter.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Klael:
Thank you N'da and aiiro.

Actually I want to just resize them, not to hide.

N'da, do you now the registry key for size of bars?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] N'da:
copy vjtoggle.exe in \Windows\Startup then create a .txt with only this:

52#"\Windows\Startup\vjtoggletoday.exe" -configure

adapt the name of the .exe if it's not the same. Rename the .txt in .LNK use it from everywhere in ppc.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] zhzaen:
That really does't resize the bars evenly. It either resizes the bottom of the top bar, or the top of the bottom bar, leaving them looking uneven. Is there any way to equally size the bars, reduce the total size of the bar? There are 5 to 10 pixels above and below the words on each bar that we could regain real estate back.

I have samsung galaxy A32 5g model sm-a326u , stock Android 11. I frequently use Vanced Youtube via phone data to listen to music while walking (via bluetooth), and tracking with GPS (MapMyRun app). I noticed that if take a picture with default camera app, then GPS tracking stops and Youtube vanced also stops. Looks like camera app breaks something serious while taking picture! Does any one noticed the same problem? Is there a fix?

Hi all,

I tried several times to repair my phone with Sony Companion after flashing a different region. Unfortunately, it doesn't work, as it stops with the message to prepare the phone and need more than 50% energy. If I try to repari it with the flash mode, I get following error:

As it seems that I am not the only one with this error, I started this topic.

Does anyone have a solution for it?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] maciozo:

months ago i've tried the Software Repair with Xperia Companion (on 5 II), but it doesn't work. The phone shut down during the process, and of course everything fails. The same with 10 III.

I think SONY seriously needs to upgrade Xperia Companion or, why not, give the community another software for updates/repair on Windows.

Which recovery will go with mmx rom
[Realme GT] joebrit:
I couldn't find any simple instructions for rooting so hopefully this helps someone.

I'm assuming you've already unlocked your bootloader. If not, download the deep testing app (there are various apks on xda and c.realme.com e.g. from here). Then submit the application (it took me a few minutes to get approved) then use the app to reboot into the bootloader, then run command fastboot flashing unlock.

If your bootloader is unlocked you can update to android 14 (though it isn't necessary to root). If your gt isn't offering you the latest version you can download a recent version on this thread and then use "local install" in the update menu.

Next, download the latest twrp from:

https://github.com/qiurigao/RMX2202

The one I'll use in this example is twrp-3.6.0-V2.img

And download the latest magisk from:

https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases

The one I'll use in this example is Magisk-v24.3.apk

Put your gt into fastboot mode by powering off, then hold the power and volume down buttons together until you're in the fastboot screen.

Then run command:

fastboot boot "twrp-3.6.0-V2.img"

Do NOT try installing twrp as I've read it can cause issues.

This should boot twrp (it will be in chinese but it doesn't matter).

Rename the magisk apk to a zip e.g. Magisk-v24.3.zip

Now run:

adb push Magisk-v24.3.zip /data/Magisk-v24.3.zip

Then:

adb shell "twrp install /data/Magisk-v24.3.zip"

Now you can adb reboot and you should be rooted!

Good luck.

[Realme GT] sonic_7:

[Realme GT] 0kti:

[Realme GT] Gordin:
Thanks, this worked!

Also, really DO NOT install Magisk by clicking on "Install" in the TWRP interface, it can brick the device. Just don't touch the phone while installing Magisk, only use the fastboot and adb commands.
[Realme GT] robertaalves:
still working on last update?

Yes, absolutely. It will work in Android 12 no matter how many updates you'll get. But will not work in Android 13.
[Realme GT] wlanguide:
Thanks man, it worked like a charm.
[Realme GT] Gordin:
This method works with the Android 13 update.

Use the same twrp image (twrp-3.6.0-V2.img) but use the latest Magisk (25.2)

I did this with 2 devices and had no Problems with root. Had to reinstall the Magisk App afterwards though.

(FWIW I did not remove root before updating to Android 13, that doesn't seem to be a problem)
[Realme GT] JimKatsanos:

Aanndd 2) is there any development/general discussion group about this device on telegram?
[Realme GT] alex61194:
can you open the bootloader in a13? or you need to open it before update?
[Realme GT] Gordin:
Hm, to unlock bootloader, you need the right deep testing apk for your system version. I haven't looked into if there exists one for Android 13, but I would just downgrade the phone to a patch that works. I think I unlocked mine by downgrading to stock, and then installing the latest system update that is still Android 11. Sounds like there is a working Android 12 too, but I haven't tested it. Having to downgrade doesn't really matter to me, because unlocking will wipe all user data anyway. (Of course if you find a deep testing apk that is meant for 13, you can also try that, I just don't know if one exists)
[Realme GT] Iaspa:
How can I do on my European Realme GT updated to Android 13? Is the guide still valid? I tried with the app but it doesn't work... It waits forever
[Realme GT] xefils2k:
Hi all,

@joebrit thx for guide.

I'm on Android 13, but cannot get the device recognized in fastboot mode. I can see the device in usb debug and 'adb devices' shows my device. After entering in deep testing via app, or executing 'adb reboot bootloader' It boots and stay on the fastboot mode. During poweroff I can listen the device gets disconnected from Windows, but when it boots in fastboot mode, no device is recognized on Windows devices so no fastboot neither adb can see the device. I don't think it's a matter of cable, because on normal boot and USB Debug on, the device is shown on adb. Ideas?

Thanks!
