So far I am amazed by it. I had no idea that manila could run so smooth and really become a better way to toggle programs and layer the today screen. The one thing I didn't expect was even though the screen isn't any bigger it is way more useful in respect to the touch screen because of the lack of a "lip" around the screen

I will say I don't like the gloss black finish but I think that that is only on the ATT version.

Saying goodbye, Selling my Hermes

After years of not having the balls to leave my girl, I finally did it and hooked up with the G1. So I'm putting her back on the market. To be specific its the ATT 8525 version, and unlocked of course. She'll be coming with an invisible shield pre-installed, 1GB Micro SD Card, 2 stylus, stock rom or your choice of any custom rom on here, and a wall charger. I'm hoping to get $150 obo. She is still in very good condition, no notable scratches or anything. Here are some pics of this beauty, PM me if you are interested. Thanks! :D I'm letting my xda family have first debs on her first before I put her up on eBay.

Goodbye Hermes. The time has come.

Well I hope to see some of you in the Raphael section but I picked up a ATT Fuze on the 11th. I never thought I would be so attached to a phone lol. The 8525 has treated me very well and made it through a deployment to Iraq lol. It’s so dented and chipped up its amazing it still works. Well guys see ya later, its been a great few years. Thanks for the help.

Sincerely

[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] josephgrab:
I am using an SM-G9810, which is a Snapdragon (I did not know that when I purchased it or first started trying to do this). I downgraded the firmware using Odin to Android 11 (R), the latest one, December 2021 (G9810ZHS3DUL3, CSC TGY for Hong Kong). Then, I installed Magisk and patched the AP file. Then, like found in https://xdaforums.com/t/recovery-unofficial-twrp-for-galaxy-s20-series-snapdragon.4157901/, steps 1-5, I installed Magisk. I performed step 6, but I believe the multidisabler flash failed. So, while I had root, I could not finish install. afaneh92 told me to run the following commands (pick which one applies, I could not find a comma in TWRP command line, so I used adb shell):

# mount r/w in twrp

adb shell mount /dev/block/mapper/system /system_root

adb shell mount /dev/block/mapper/vendor /vendor

# mount r/w in twrp terminal

mount -o remount,rw /vendor

mount -o remount,rw /system_root

# mount r/w in booted system

adb shell su -c mount -o remount,rw /vendor

adb shell su -c mount -o remount,rw /

With that done, I could then proceed with Niall's guide, https://xdaforums.com/t/samsung-and...sed-privacy-reconfigure-step-by-step.4402337/

I started with step 9. I found I could not remove Chrome, Gmail, youtube, and a few others. However, since I was rooted, I could uninstall with System app remover root needed_v7.2_apkpure.com.apk

Until I did the mount / remount, I was unable to write the patched services.jar or org.spoofing.org. However, it seems to be working now.

I am posting because maybe someone who knows a whole lot more will be able to help others to locate the apps to uninstall with adb like Chrome and GMS. I still got it done with the System app remover, but I still am not sure I got it all. However, MicroG is working and passes all checks, and Aurora is able to install apps. That's what I wanted, but it took many, many steps and errors to get there (with many factory resets and flash back to stock firmware). If someone else has a much better complete step by step instructions it would really help others.

Many thanks to those who did all the threads I referenced or contributed to them. I also used https://xdaforums.com/t/tutorial-ro...android-12-one-ui-4-1-stock-firmware.4394629/ as I never got the magisk key combination to give me toot access, which is what Niall did in his guide (never worked for me, I tried about a hundred times).

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] WayneB1983:
Hi all,

So many years ago I used to do this flashing the custom roms on my old galaxy s4, and it was pretty straight forward.

THis s8 though is giving me real problems.

I'm trying to flash lineage 19 on it but I just can't seem to do it. I have run into error messages, boot loops, apparently deleted the boot sector off after using TWRP which only worked once...

I have googled and googled but I can't find the exact guide for my phone. It's a UK phone.

I have managed to get a samsung rom back on it using Odin, but it's got so T roam option which doesn't do anything..

Please can someone help?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] theboringkid:
It should work like this:

1. Enable OEM-unlocking in the developer options

2. Download the no-verity-opt-encrypt rom (google it, you will find links) on an SD Card or if you can plug that in your phone on an USB Stick

3. Install twrp using odin ( you was able to do this, right?)

4. Boot into twrp (Do not boot in the os first, go to twrp directly after flashing it)

5. Go to wipe, tap on format data and type "yes" to format your data partition.

6. Flash the no-verity-opt-encrypt zip

7. You can now boot to the system. If you already have the install zip for Lineage, you can also flash this now before booting to the system.

8. Done

I know most of us have moved on to minimalistic layouts, but if you're an old-school XDA member, or a "legacy" smartphone user, you likely recognize the once beautiful HTC Sense (4) interface the moment you see it. Well, after months (or years) of searching for quality HTC Sense (4) style widgets to no avail, I decided to make some myself. Introducing the simple knock-off Sensory Deprivation KWGT widget pack!

The pack was designed for use with the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra, but of course, through resizing, etc.. it should work well with most screens & resolutions. "Padding" might be a lifesaver depending on what launcher you use.

All widgets are unlocked, customizable, and yours to modify as you see fit. All I ask, with mutual respect, is if you share the work, please link back to this post (in case of the need for technical assistance relative to the widgets themselves).

Included are four KWGT widgets:

(4x3) 4 Senses - HTC Sense 4 style Weather Clock​

Official Helvetica Neue font(s)​

Official HTC weather icons​

No flip or weather animations obviously (Many of you are aware as to why, but if not, it's Google's fault :p)​

Tapping the clock opens the Samsung Clock app, tapping the weather icon force updates the weather, tapping on the city (& conditions) opens the Samsung Weather app​

Action(s) can be changed via KWGT

(4x1) ForeSense - Four-day forecast widget

Uses the location relative to your settings in KWGT

Tapping the widget takes you to the respective "10-day Forecast" page of TheWeatherChannel for your location

Action(s) can be changed via KWGT

(4x4) Sensory Widget - HTC Sense 4 style Music Player

Supports any music player that KWGT initially supports (I primarily use Samsung Music, so further testing will be needed for quality expectations)

Tap the Album Art to open the player (can be set in KWGT)

Track Title scrolls as necessary, relative to the character length of the title (Artist does not)

(4x4) Senseless Widget - Nearly blank widget designed to match with the rest of the widgets

I use it as a background widget with "overlapping" enabled in Nova Launcher Prime (See screenshots below)

I planned to make the old "FriendStream" widget, but no... I don't think I will (Not at this time at least)

Any criticism, or praise, is appreciated. I haven't done much custom work since my old Anastasia Jewel Clocks back in the WinMo days, so bear with me. I've been out of the game for quite some time.

If you have any questions or need any assistance, don't hesitate to hit me up.

(I'm a tad unfamiliar with Kuper, so until I wrap my head around that process, all widgets are included individually in the attached ZIP file. Simply Import them into KWGT.)

Enjoy!

What was the internet problem you are having?

As far as I know those build host and user are used by the internal engineers. Did you update your phone OS software after the factory reset? That might have resulted in different build host.

But I am not the expert in this area, maybe others can chime in

Hello Friends. I got a warning that the "Air Temperature is Low bla bla" with an indication that my battery is not normal, for example my battery is in the 80% position and it drops for a very long time, but suddenly from 80% to 70% or even below. and when I'm charging in the 50% position, but it doesn't go up as if charging doesn't come in, but instantly from 50% to 60% and keeps going up. This abnormality when I checked using Franco Kernel Manager the temperature position reached minus for example -37. And suddenly the temperature returns to normal and the battery is normal.

I think the problem is with the battery, I've replaced it 2 times with different brands but the problem doesn't go away, anyone knows the solution? I'm so dizzy, thank you.

[Huawei P10 Questions & Answers] Magix3D:
Hey everyone,

after spending about 5 hours trying everything I could think of and what I found in all kinds of forums, I'll try here before the phone is gonna be burried.

Got a "dead" P10 from a friend - booted straight to an error page with the headline "Your device has failed verification and may not work properly." My guess is that it was supposed to be updated, didn't have enough memory and then crashed.

Here's what I tried:

Factory reset - aborts at about 25%.

Download of a new firmware version via WLAN - aborts

Upload via SD-Card (dload) - firmware update failed

The phone is not recognized on the PC - so wouldn't know how to flash it from there.

I can still access it via fastboot, but I actually don't now how that could help me 😅

Can anyone think of anything else that could be done?

Hello

Bought HD 2021, no ads version

In short:

1. Need to block the updates. How do I go about it? I have a router, so blocking the traffic to Amazon maybe?

2. I'd love to completely disconnect the tablet from Amazon. I wish to gain maximum intrussion on my privacy, so I'd love to get rid of Alexa etc. But if there's something which improves the chances of increasing compability with older apps installed from a pre-downloaded files, not from Google Play etc. I'd like that too. Basically "what would you do in the first place". Aside from the looks. I don't really care how my icons arrangement looks like or if I can get somewhere in 2 clicks instead of 3. Not sure if the launcher swap is for me then.

After spending some time googling, I found that there's no way to install LineageOS on this one. And people talk about bad 7.3.2.2 update. (I have 7.3.2.1)

So, please help a noob with some simple step-by-step advise on what should I do (no need to tell me the actual steps of each procedure, I can google, but keep in mind I'm a total noob to Android and PC-Android apps, so please don't use shortcuts which prelong my future googling by 1000x, thanks ;) )

I just powered it on, checked the firmware version, and didn't connect the internet to it yet.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FiredHD:
OK, so I needlessly worried after finding a 5 method list of removing the auto updates and comments about none working, and thought Toolbox is mainly for changing launchers.

To answer most of my questions:

- Toobox allows to disable the updates, has ALL the options nicely explained and you can just read through all the menu items to learn what to do and what's what. :) It allows to remove the spying Amazon crap (Alexa), allows to sideload apps without using any stores (not even google account required, I guess :) ), restores Google Play access and gives direct access to the filesysem for easy file transfer. Among other.

Awesome thing. I didn't finish using the Toolbox yet, but seems like I'll be able to use the tablet now.

I have a new question though. If my OS version is from 2021, and I don't want the new updates, what about security vulnerabilities? Am I now an easy target?

edit: Still have Alexa

Amazon Alexa is one service

and

Alexa - is the name of second service

Also, how do I disable the Google Assistant after replacing Alexa with it?

Lastly. I have only 1.3GB of 3GB RAM free? Or is this under developer settings in Android settings menu, not properly displayed?
