[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] ZP1085:
Yea our PRI version is 1.31_027. And I would like to try an update but I do know that it voids my warranty with USCC. As for GPS, I still have not figured out how to use it. Even the tech help at USCC doesnt know.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] dcd1182:
you cannot use GPS with the stock USCC ROM. the PRI will not change that. i should have stated that my question was for those running any 3.XX based custom ROM.

i do not know if the PRI will void your warranty or not and i do not know what results it will give you, or whether there is any way to revert to the previous PRI. that is why I have not attached it yet :)
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] krifpv:
Hello,

I have a Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro phone on which USB data transfer stopped working. Neither connecting the phone to the computer, nor connecting a USB OTG device work (although fast charging works fine). I'm not sure when it happened, however I think I updated the firmware/vendor sometime around then. Also, I'm running the latest Arrow OS 11 (which is quite out of date now..) I tried changing the board with the USB port but to no avail. I've also tried multiple USB cables, which I confirmed to work on another device. I even tried booting the phone into EDL (as well as fastboot) mode, however device manager doesn't recognize the device (and I doubt it's the drivers as it would probably result in the device appearing as QHSUSB_BULK, not "device descriptor request failed").

Has anyone dealt with such a problem before? Could it be caused by bad vendor/firmware? Or is it a hardware issue, which could be diagnosed? Perhaps the custom ROM could be somehow safely updated without a USB connection (with it being necessary to format data)? Thanks for any help!
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] muellermeierschmidt:
Did you ever find the solution for your issue? I have a very similar problem, which appeared as far as I can remember without having done any updates before:

On my Mi 9T Pro I can slow charge (very slow, complete recharge takes 8+ hours), but I do not get working quick charge or a working usb connection.

I had the same problem a while back which was solved by changing the USB board. This time however, I have changed the USB board multiple times (at first I thought the new board was faulty) but I did not help.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] habeck.colibretto:
Hello, I have similar problem. USB OTG doesn't work at all (in custom recovery or in rom). I guess changing USB charging port may help... but I'm not sure. Did you manage this problem? (I have other two 9t pro which works so it's not problem with USB cable).

[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magicalhen:
My favorite tablet by far is my S2 T710, and I can't seem to find a comparable one that can run a more current android version. Many apps crash a lot on it, and I am thinking about rooting it and installing a more recent android to see if that improves things. My questions are

Is it worth doing? Or will I find things like "Netflix no longer works" ,etc?

I see that it requires using odin3, which seems to be just for windows. Since I have just osx and linux, I'm wondering if there is an alternative. And, even if there is, would I be better off borrowing a windows device to be sure of the smoothest installation

Thanks

I do not know if it is necessary to root the device before installing the special version of TWRP that it requires.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lpedia:
Rooting is not necessary. You don't need it for installing TWRP, or installing the custom ROM, or using the ROM.

Odin is not the only way to flash a custom recovery to a Samsung device. There's a package called heimdall for Linux, MacOS, and Windows that can do this.

As a guide, you could look at the LineageOS installation instructions for Samsung devices that have LOS official ROMs. Some of those explain how to use heimdall to install Lineage Recovery.

Obviously, you would substitute TWRP for Lineage Recovery.

For example, see Installing a Custom Recovery using Heimdall https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/beyond1lte/install#installing-a-custom-recovery-using-heimdall in the beyond1lte device instructions. Ignore the other sections of the instructions for that device, and once you have TWRP installed, use it to wipe partitions and flash the unofficial LineageOS ROM.

Maybe you can downgrade cdroid to android 8 and then go back to official Android 8 firmware. This was suggested with the hades rom somewhere in their thread if I remember correctly.

Hello, in this thread i will show you a method to remove FRP on the Galaxy A5 (2016) A510F

First, download Odin and this firmware:https://www.mediafire.com/file/gwmhbjyfscmidno/A510F_AP_FACTORYBINARY_COMPILATION.md5/file

Then, connect the phone to your pc, boot the phone in download mode by clicking the Volume Down + Home + Power button at the same time and flash the firmware with Odin via the AP option.

When the flash is done, boot up the phone and go to the settings. Then enable the developers settings by clicking the build version in "About this phone" until the message pops up.

After that, go to the developers settings and enable usb debugging.

Now shut down the phone and boot it in download mode.

Then, flash the stock firmware and... that's it!
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] tbtbtata:
TLDR: I am trying to install LineageOS from twrp but do not seem to be able to find the right partition to flash.

I have a Blackview BV 4900 Pro (aarch64 / MT6762v/Wd / arm64-v8a) on which I successfully installed twrp, flashed Magisk (24.3) and Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_11.02.2020.zip

I am trying to install lineage-19.1-20220510-UNOFFICIAL-arm64_bvS.img from Andy Yan's personnal build ( https://sourceforge.net/projects/andyyan-gsi/files/lineage-19.x/ ), but I am stuck.

When I try to install the lineage image from twrp, it asks which partition to flash among

- System_image

- Vendor_image

- Product_image

- Boot

- dtbo

- Recovery

- Persist Image

- Vbmeta

- Vbmeta System

- Vbmeta Vendor

- lk

- logo

- nvram

- TEE

- frp

- Super (Product, Vendor, System)

If I Try System_image, I have an error message "E: Cannot flash images to file systems". I can successfully flash on Super, but then nothing boots (I just have a black screen with "Fastboot mode" at the bottom, and I am indeed in fastboot mode).

What am I missing?

In twrp's log, I also have the error message "Failed to mount '/system_root' (Permission denied)", but that's it.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] tbtbtata:
At this time, I am guessing that re-packaging a super.img with the current Product and Vendor image, but the lineage image for system, may be my best way forward.

So, yes, the correct way of proceeding was to a. repackage a super.img, and the b. flash it.

To repackage a super.img, the best is to follow the instructions at https://xdaforums.com/t/editing-system-img-inside-super-img-and-flashing-our-modifications.4196625/

In my case, I had to:

- Get the original

super.img

- Install simg2img

- Run

simg2img super.img super.ext4.img

- Pull the soucres at https://github.com/Exynos-nibba/lpunpack-lpmake-mirror

- Run

lpbinary/binary/./lpunpack super.ext4.img

- Pull together three images: the original vendor.img, the original product.img, and lineage-19.1-20220510-UNOFFICIAL-arm64_bvS.img

- Find the size of the super partition using https://android.stackexchange.com/a/247134/188657

- Use this python script ( https://xdaforums.com/t/editing-sys...shing-our-modifications.4196625/post-85096929 ) and run

python3 lpmakesimple.py lpbinary/binary/lpmake ./super.new.img 4294967296 system=./lineage-19.1-20220510-UNOFFICIAL-arm64_bvS.img,vendor=./vendor.img,product=./product.img

which outputted

lpbinary/binary/lpmake \
--metadata-size 65536 --metadata-slots 1 --device super:4294967296 \
--group main:4294103040 --partition system:readonly:2035568640:main \

--partition product:readonly:1945939968:main --image product=./product.img \
--sparse --output ./super.new.img

And then flash super.new.img using

fastboot flash super super.new.img

and that was it!

[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] Bucika:
So if anyone is interested in booting a GSI Image Here is the guide: also thanks to @Dollscythe I just updated it as he forget to write me a step for flashing the vbmeta.img..

1. you need to download the firmware file for your model

2. you need to open it with your zipping software of choice (i use 7zip) And after it unzips you need to unzip AP file to get to the recovery.img.lz4

3. you extract the recovery.img and you patch it to enable fastbootd https://github.com/Johx22/Patch-Recovery you will also find the info how to patch it on the link, it is easy if you know how to follow it) - Currently is NOT working, the dev said to me that he will fix this once his exams are over. (If you know how to Decompress the Iz4.img to get just the .img it will probably work - didn't try tho.

4. this step will wipe your device so make sure to back up (unlocking the bootloader) And it will also trigger your Knox!

To unlock the bootloader you need to go to settings, about phone - software info and press on the build number like 7times to enable developer options. After that go to developer options and enable OEM unlock.

Turn off the phone, put the USB C cable into the phone (but not into the computer yet!) Then hold the volume + and volume - button at the same time and put the cable into the phone.

When you are in the download mod you will see the instructions on how to unlock the bootloader.

5. Boot into the system and do the first time setup (make sure to connect to wifi, but skip any prompts to register or login to accounts)

6. double check if the oem unlock toggle is still on, then reboot to download mode

7. you need to flash the patched bootloader using odin - you flash your patched recovery in AP window in Odin. Then you immediately boot into the recovery (you gotta boot to your new recovery immediately after the flash is complete, make sure to hold the key combination for recovery immediately after pressing start in odin to get it right. otherwise, the system will wipe your newly flashed recovery and you'll have to do step 7 again)

8. You will now notice that your recovery has a new option: fastbootd mode (yes there's a d in there, it's not a typo, it stands for fastbootdynamic mode) 9. once you're in, your device now officially supports fastboot. you just do "fastboot flash system *the_name_of_the_system_image_you_downloaded.img", RIGHT AWAY AFTER THAT flash vbmeta.img (it can be found in the telegram group) and once that is done flashing just exit fastbootd mode back to the recovery, then format data and then then reboot for system images, i recommend pixel experience https://github.com/ponces/treble_bu...4-ab-vndklite-12.1-20220518-UNOFFICIAL.img.xz 10. you'll be greeted by a google bootlogo and thats a success.

Good luck!
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] Ivan Fuentes Hagar:
I'd just add that the proper command to flash vbmeta.img is ./fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img (I don't use "./" though, as I've included platform-tools in my path env variable).

Not disabling verity/verification sent me to a bootloop from hell after rebooting... I began reading more carefully the Telegram chat, found the proper command and I'm now setting my PixExp as I write.

One thing I wish people on here would give more instructions than they do it's not easy on button the recovery image I don't know why you say it's easy cause it's not that makes no sense you don't put no links into the description of where to ago why don't somebody do like they used to do and actually give a s*** about what they put on this website
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] ShaDisNX255:
The purpose of XDA "Developers" was actually to share knowledge between developers, you know, people who actually know how the most basic stuff works. It's open up for the public, sure, but most of the stuff you can find here are not meant for the average noob that doesn't know how to unlock a bootloader.

The instructions are pretty clear for people who can use a google search. Don't expect everything to be spoon fed, put in a little effort.

There's a difference between saying "OMG this is too complicated why don't you explain it with a video or why don't you tell me step by step on how to flash custom firmware on my phone" and saying "Hey I'm stuck in step 3, I don't understand the part here. This is what I've tried so far..."

I bet for the most part, the first person would be ignored while the second person would more likely get a response.
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] jdg007:
That means to offend you in any way or whatever I just wished people would give more explanations on what they post because you know I don't make no sense on how you patch the recovery I'm new at this it's my it's my fault I do know how to unlock bootloaders not bootleggers and I do know how to install TWRP and Flash zip balls but as when it comes to patching something the only thing I know how to pack is using magisk That's the boot image I'm sorry hope Hope you can help me out

If you don't mind email me a copy of that recovery image that you got Text I sure would appreciate it Just looking forward For your reply
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] kendalpercimoney:
Thanks @Bucika, here's a guide that might be a bit more noob friendly. Also a big thanks to @Dollscythe for their help.

Files can be found here.

These are the latest GSIs.

1. Unlock bootloader by opening developer options and flipping the "unlock bootloader" switch.

2. Boot into download mode (press and hold vol + and - while plugging into computer).

Press and hold vol + to enter unlock mode. Accept and click enter. Your phone will reset.

3. Using Odin, flash fastbootd through AP. (recovery.img).

4. Press and hold volume + key as the phone reboots, as when you restart again it will reverse this step. You should be in recovery now.

Click on fastboot.

5. Get fastboot working on your computer. Test connection by using the command "fastboot devices" to see if your device is there.

6. Run the command fastboot flash system [name of gsi file]. (without square brackets)

7. When you're done, run ./fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

8. Go back to recovery and wipe your phone.

9. Go back into fastboot, flash magisk file if you would like root: fastboot flash boot magisk

10. Wipe again, reboot.

11. Once you are fully booted in, open settings > phh settings (first entry) > misc settings > then scroll down until you find "force fps"

Change that to the @120fps option.

Hope this helps! Note that this is unofficial and WiFi hotspot doesn't work, Samsung Health has issues too. I couldn't get my watch 4 working with GSI.

This will blow your Knox bit fuse!
