[Magisk] Blackdragonbird:
Hi, I got a situation here. I had to reinstall the rom in my Note 7 Pro after nearly 2 years from teh last time I had to do it.

Unfortunately, I had no idea that the new Magisk version can't be flashed by custom recoveries anymore. I simply flashed my rom using Orange Fox, restarted to the system, used the cell for 2 days, installed everything I needed, and yesterday I downloaded the latest 24310 Magisk version, flashed it using my custom recovery, and restarted in the system again.

Magisk greeted me with a message that it needed extra setup to be fully functional. I restarted in recovery, nothing happened, restarted to system, Maghisk still stuck in the need extra setup to be functional. I resolved to uninstall it using the app, got an error message in the console, tried restoring images, another error. Tried to reboot to recovery to try to reflash magisk, no more recovey, gone. Used adb to reflash recovery, rebooted to it, now I have a message that says Error opening: 'data/adb/magisk' (operation not permitted). Tried to use the Orange Fox option to remove Magisk, got some error messages Error opening: 'data/adb/magisk' (operation not permitted), but it said it was done. Tried to reboot, stuck in boot loop, back in recovery, dirty flashed my actual ROM, still stuck in boot load.

Any way to delete this locked magisk folder to try to completely remove magisk and try to reinstall it the correct way now? Or the only solution is a complete reinstallation of the ROM formatting all partitions? I haven't tried it yet because after 2 years of doing this procedure I barely remember how to do a clean install correctly.

Reflash the stock unrooted boot.img of your room in bootloader. Use adb

Fastboot flash boot boot.img
[Magisk] cangurob:
Similar problem here...

I tried reflashing stock recovery and stock boot.img - now whenever I reboot it just boots into recovery! I don't seem to be able to boot into system any more...

Any ideas?

I'm running AOSIP on a Xiami Mix Mi 3 - I hadn't updated to the latest Magisk in quite some time (since before the app could do it automatically). I have to use the recovery method.

Steps I took are:

Get recovery.zip from my ROM, patched it through the app, then flashed through fastboot. I rebooted while holding down the up arrow to reboot into recovery, then released for the phone to boot.

I got an error after booting that said "there's an internal error with your device" - and it was super buggy, couldn't tap the screen, super slow to load stuff, etc.... I figured it was a magisk issue, so tried to reflash recovery and boot... Not I'm stuck booting into recovery!

Help.

Edit: so - I think it turns out I have one of those RARE xiaomi devices that DOES have ramdisk even though the app doesn't detect it... Go figure. A clean install of the ROM, followed by patching the BOOT image rather than the recovery image - and we're up and running.

[LineageOS Questions & Answers] carsten888:
On an older phone I used TWRP recovery. That has a brilliant option to create system backups.

How to do that in the LineageOs recovery?

I want to clone one phone to another identical phone. I hope that can be done by creating a backup on phone 1 and install it from recovery on the other. Hopefully including the OS (with all the setting that take hours of fiddling about), apps and data.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] PhotonIce:
Just use twrp..?
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] carsten888:
But fom what I understand the TWRP-backup is only the system, not the apps and data.

In the install instructions for lineageOs, the lineageOs recovery is used. So I followed the instructions exactly. Just surprised there is no backup option.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] Skorpion96:
Obliviously no, twrp backup include everything. I use twrp and when I have to install new lineage os update I boot lineage recovery from fastboot and keep internal recovery as twrp
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] PhotonIce:
Use twrp backup and select all the partitions. It'll back up everything.

Apps and settings are located in the data partition and other files/data is located in the internal storage partition. boot is the kernel, recovery is the recovery and system in the system image.

If you know what you're doing you could even install a fresh copy of lineage onto another phone and just restore the data and internal storage partitions, and still receive an exact copy of the phone you backup up from while using less space in the backup.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] Paul_Neocube:
... An additional question. I apologize if my n00b question should be something I already know. However, I briefly had twrp on my device and then I flashed lineageOS and magisk on slot b and of course it switched to boot from slot b. Since then, I have not been able to access twrp as it is located on slot a. When I boot into recovery, it brings me automatically to lineageOS recovery. How would I access twrp once again?
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] PhotonIce:
Not sure what you mean by slot A and B, but just try flashing twrp again, it should override lineage recovery.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] Paul_Neocube:
On my device there are two slots... A and B. Like two separate partitions that van have software installed to. When I installed my rom I first installed twrp to slot a and then my Tom to slot b which is what runs now when I power on my device. I can't install twrp to the slot my os is on as I would have issues with the os recovery that is on that slot.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] zogoibi:
Could you please explain (or link to instructions) how did you manage to have two different recoveries (TWRP and LOS) in the same phone? I would've thought that was not possible.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] MJPollard:
It's not. He keeps LineageOS recovery on the phone, and when he wants to use TWRP, he connects the phone to his computer via USB and runs fastboot boot twrp.img from the command line. This reboots the phone and loads TWRP into memory without flashing it to the phone.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] zogoibi:
@MJPollard Wow!! That's a very intersting trick! thanks a lot. I'll take that down as it seems darn useful. Just one question: the "alternative" recovery .img file should be in my computer, or previously copied to the phone?
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] Skorpion96:
actually i done the reverse, i have twrp installed and when i want to run lineage recovery i boot it with fastboot boot "recovery.img"
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] zogoibi:
Thanks. Yes, I've realized that. Still, my question remains unanswered: In order to boot via fastboot, should the alternative recovery's .img file reside in the computer or in the phone? I presume the former, but I'm not sure.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] PhotonIce:
You ever flashed TWRP via cmd (adb) on a pc? It's the same thing but you use fastboot flash rather than fastboot boot. When you flash twrp on phone, you put the recovery.img file in your adb folder, if I'm not mistaken. The same thing goes for booting an .img file (it goes in the adb directory/folder in your pc).
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] MJPollard:
The alternate recovery should remain on the computer. It can be in the same folder as adb and fastboot for easy access (it doesn't need to be there, it's just easier that way). That way, all you need to do is reboot the device into fastboot mode, connect it to the computer via USB, and run fastboot boot twrp.img (or whatever it's named). The original recovery will remain untouched on the phone while the alternate recovery runs in memory.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] zogoibi:
Thank you. I know this question is a bit off topic, but when I try to run that command (with the phone in fastboot mode), it fails:

fastboot boot twrp.img

downloading 'boot.img'...

OKAY [ 1.611s]

booting...

FAILED (remote: Unrecognized command boot)

Do you have an idea of why is that? My device's recovery is LOS's, and the recovery I try to run from the computer is TWRP.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] MJPollard:
Try fastboot boot recovery twrp.img. I don't normally do this so I might have misremembered it. If it works, I'll edit my post so that others don't get confused.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] zogoibi:
Nope, it didn't work. The first command you told me is the correct one (I've checked that on the fastboot manual), but it fails on my device. Maybe there is some incompatibility between LOS recovery's fastboot mode and the TWRP I am trying to run. I won't insist, as this is not the thread for such an issue. I will try to find some information somewhere else. Thank you all the same for trying to help!
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] agamemnonn:
have you found a solution for this? I m also having same trouble lineage os 20. I wanna use TWRP to make backup of whole rom.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] zogoibi:
I found out that it's not possible. LOS Recovery's fastboot mode has that command disabled.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] tuxayo:
Except on recent Android with file based encrypt (FBE). As of now TWRP can't decrypt /data. Any alternative? (not relying on apps marking data exportable, that's not complete (affects seedvault and adb backup))

[Touch HD General] SingaporeAirlines:
I'm with O2 and have been for 12 months + 2 which means I'm due for an upgrade.

Because the Touch HD is with Mobiles.co.uk, they won't transfer my upgrade privileges (£100 - £150 credit, free bolt on) to a new account.

I have made it clear to them that I'm not interested in any phones that they have. I also said that they can just give me £50 credit but I want my bolt on (which would obviously be for 'unlimited' data).

After a week of being transferred between upgrades and retentions, people shouting at me, me shouting at people and being refused to talk to any person of authority, I am exasperated.

The sticking point is apparently that because I am entering into a new O2 contract, they won't transfer any upgrade privileges "because it's a totally new contract". I probably spend £35 - £60 a month with them but they have no concept of what 'customer lifetime value is'.

In fact, all the people from complaints, to retentions (or the F**K off) department and upgrades seem pedantic, deluded, totally unempowered to do anything and idiotic.

So I still want the Touch HD. What would you do?

Attached is a PDF file of what I think my options are. Not included in Option 1 and Option 2 is the £35 (£40 less Quidco membership of £5) discount.

This whole saga almost makes me want to go to Orange or even wait for the Blackberry Storm which is exclusive to Vodafone.

Comments?
[Touch HD General] Gustopher:
Alternative?

If you can afford it, buy the HD yourself and switch onto a Simplicity contract at £20 per month for a rolling 30 day contract with 600 minutes, 1000 texts and a free bolt on, e.g. unlimted web.

I have done that and it retains my relationship with O2 (and benefits) plus once I have been on the new tariff for 30 days I can still upgrade to a new phone on a different tariff. Don't plan to do so for a while as I like my HD but it's nice to have the option!
[Touch HD General] SingaporeAirlines:
Thanks for the suggestion, but I just priced it over 18 months and seems uneconomical - see the JPG attached.
[Touch HD General] SiliconS:
I've been doing the same through-life calculations to try and work out the best deal for myself. My Orange contract completes in February and I can't wait to leave their unreliable network and go back to O2, whose network actually gives me reception here in the sparsely-populated south east of England :p

Buying the phone + the SIM-only contract gives me an 18-month cost of £860 (excluding the insurance you've added to your calculations).

Buying from mobiles.co.uk with a £35 per month O2 contract plus a £7.50 web bolt-on gives a total cost of about £560. This is the best deal by far for me, but I can't get through to their sales phone line and I get the feeling their customer service is non-existant.

I think I'll be waiting until Orange lose their exclusivity in the new year and see what deals are available then. :(
[Touch HD General] SiliconS:
PS. Shouting/arguing with call centre drones is the quickest way to get yourself blacklisted and denied any kind of deals or benefits. Two of my neighbours work in bank call centres and they tell me some very interesting stories about what happens to angry customers. :p
[Touch HD General] bond007:
Here is your answer stuff o2 there customer service is awfull .

Get this contract http://www.expansys.com/c.aspx?f=76 comes to £730

Never had any trouble with t-mobile customer service spot on
[Touch HD General] Philio25:
What's the attraction of staying with O2?

They have terrible customer service (as you've found out yourself) also their 3G coverage is probably the worst of all the networks (unless they have made drastic improvements in the last 12 months).

Good luck if your going to buy your phone from Expansys, they've really screwed me around, been told many times my phone was in stock and promised it would be out for delivery, then the order suddenly shows 9 days lead time! I cancelled and picked one up at a shop in London today.
[Touch HD General] JTHM:
They haven't. I had a datacard tariff for my laptop and left them last month for that exact reason.
[Touch HD General] SingaporeAirlines:
I was genuinely friendly, then genuinely nice, then fake nice, then firm, then confused as to why they weren't doing what I told them and then they just became rude and I reciprocated.

They seem to have a relatively good brand.

I think I'm going to go with the Mobiles.co.uk route. I'll also get Quidco cashback £35 and I applied and got approved for a Halifax credit card for no reason so I'll get a Quido cashback of £20 for that too.

Still, would have been nice for O2 to have valued my loyalty.

They are just plain rude.
[Touch HD General] silo24:
Or, if you have the patience, do what I did.....

I joined Vodafone on their SIM only tariff about 6 weeks ago. Tariff was £25 per month for 700 mins, 250txt and Unlimited Landline Calls, plus an extra £5 for unlimited internet, so £30 in total.

Last Wednesday, I was in the Vodafone store, and asked about an upgrade and to my surprise, offered me the same tariff for 18 months and a Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 for £45!!!!!!! (If you try to get this online or via Vodafone telesales, the Handset is £30, but the line rental is £40 per month for the same deal)

Cue the fastest withdrawal of a debit card the world has ever seen. £45 later, I have my X1 which I took home played with and decided I didn't like and is currently on Ebay, with a day to go at £370.

Hopefully will nicely subsidise the Touch HD I received on Friday morning and if I decide to return the HD (Need Qwerty, don't like the X1 keypad), it will essentially be 12 months free line rental.

Yes, I am tied to a contract for another 18 months, but since the deal is good, and Vodafone is the only reliable network where I live, it's win-win for me.
[Touch HD General] EViS:
Where did you get the HD from and how much did you pay for it?
[Touch HD General] Philio25:
I used to spend up to £1000 a month on O2, loads of international calls (home/abroad) and data usage etc.

I asked them to transfer my contract over to a business contract, they refused, so I asked them to cancel, (got transfered etc) I explained again why I was cancelling, they didn't seam to care!

I moved to T-Mobile, not had any problems - great customer service (business CS is UK only, answer usually immediately although I think personal contract calls are routed to India). The 3G/HSDPA coverage is outstanding compared with O2 as well.
[Touch HD General] SingaporeAirlines:
I would have gone with your suggestion. It's just unfortunate that T-Mobile's insurance is so expensive (£8.99 a month) and you have to pay £99.99 on Expansys for the unit itself.
[Touch HD General] badaas:
carphone warehouse are able to upgrade O2 contracts, whether you'll keep your bonuses im not sure, but i managed to get £10 off per month 'after' i'd upgraded my contract just by phoning O2 and asking for it as other friends had had this loyalty deal. (I didnt upgrade via cpw though, but just an idea to get your bonus loyalty back - GOOD LUCK!).

carphone warehouse upgrades: http://www.carphonewarehouse.com/co...ERNET.PRODDISPLAY.UPGRADES.HOME&NODE_ID=10368
[Touch HD General] Philio25:
Yer I wouldn't pay that for their insurance, it's ****! I had a TyTN and their insurance wouldn't replace it as they considered me dropping and breaking it wear and tear... WTF??? I had to buy a new phone myself and got the TyTN II. Then when I asked them to move the insurance to the TyTN II they refused so I just cancelled it (and because it's actually a 3rd party company I still receive a credit on my contract every month).

We did at least get the insurance free on business contract as we have 6 handsets and a couple of data cards with them, would be expensive otherwise!

Hi all,

Dropped my phone and the phone stopped responding. I tried replacing the screen but this made no difference.

Since the phone was just not turning on at all (no sort of response), I tried to replace the charging port after (after the drop, the sim card tray was damaged so thought the issue might be around here).

After I replaced the charging port, I managed to get the notfication light flashing (with a power source) and now it is solid.

When I connect it to my PC, I hear the notification sound when a device has been connected but unable to view any files or see it show in my PC.

I feel like I'm close to getting the phone working but not quite there yet. I am mainly interested in just recovering the data.

Any help would be much appreciated.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Miki200_:
In this case, you need a screen, either on the phone itself, or an external one, and a mouse to navigate the options, if you manage to get the screen to work, enable USB debugging, run adb devices, if your phone shows up as a device (reference screenshot: View attachment 5614897), you can run adb pull /sdcard/ to copy all the files from it to your PC, but if it shows up as unauthorized (reference screenshot: View attachment 5614895), you need to allow usb debugging on the phone, then run adb pull /sdcard/ to copy the data.

And remember for the sake of god NEVER use MTP if you're copying more than one small file at a time, as it is known to corrupt large files, or large quantities of files, if you do not want corruption use adb pull
