[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] m_w_clarke:
No, I agree totally with the OP. The bubbling screen protector is a consumable and can be removed without voiding your warranty. I have this on record from Samsung UK.

Once removed, you run the risk of accidentally damaging your screen (which wouldn't be covered by a warranty claim unless you have care +) so that's a rsik you take. If you apply your own screen protector, and damage then that is your liability. If samsung do it (and they offered at cost) they cover it.

I did point out to Samsung UK that on first start the warning states that removing your screen protector voids the warranty. But the two service engineers I had conversations with said this wasn't the case.

Like I said, I have this on recorded transcript.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] gordec:
So it seems the final verdict is equivocal. If you can easily have it replaced, there is no need to risk it. It sounds like Samsung employees aren't even sure. I trust what the manager at the Samsung store has to say. He specifically says the process of replacing inner screen protector has a different process as the foldable screen is not glass. Just trying to help out fellow Z Fold 3 owners and minimize risks.

I have not seen that error, have you made any MODS to your phone? (ie root, etc.) What RC are you on?

[G1 General] marginoferror:
I had all sorts of problems like that for a while after I got the phone.

I tried a variety of things and it seemingly went away, although I haven't tested extensively. I'm not sure what exactly did it.

1) I stopped using a USB extension cord and plugged the cord that shipped with the device directly into my computer.

2) I replaced the default SD card with a Kingston 4GB chip from Newegg.

3) I installed the debug USB drivers (this is very unlikely to matter).

There might be other factors involved.

it happens because your pc has usb1.0 and not usb2.0 I have usb1.0 and i get the i/o error. the way i have to load my mem card is put it into the wing then load it

I agree with Abbens... had the same problems with everyone else. But have now fixed it.... use the USB2.0 cable onto a USB2.0 port on a PC, then "mount" from notifications and the SD card should be accessible.

Earlier today, I tried to install the leaked build on W10M on this device, and it kept failing, the problem started happening when I attempted to relock the bootloader when I unsuccessfully updated to 14393.1066, the relock failed, now it refuses any FFU file I throw at it, even the Original. I've tried Unlocking the BL, WDRT, and THOR2. Help.

When I attempted to flash the original FFU, it spat out this error:

View attachment 5673413
[Windows 10 Mobile] Placeholder735:
Solution:

Put the phone in flash mode

Close WPinternals

Position yourself in a folder with the thor2.exe tool (it's included with WDRT)

Run this command:

thor2 -mode rnd -boot_edmode

Assuming you used WPinternals download function, you should have these paths matching except for model, if not, you'll have to download manually from lumiafirmware:

thor2 -mode emergency -hexfile (PATH)\RM-1116\MPRG8994_fh.ede -edfile (PATH)\RM-1116\RM1116_fh.edp

Then you should be able to flash ffus

To recap:

Click "interrupt the boot sequence" in wpinternals to go to flash app

reboot the device and keep it connected

CLOSE wpinternals once flash app appears (arrows at the top on the phone screen)

open command prompt

cd c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Care Suite\Windows Device Recovery Tool

thor2 -mode rnd -boot_edmode

thor2 -mode emergency -hexfile (PATH)\RM-1116\MPRG8994_fh.ede -edfile (PATH)\RM-1116\RM1116_fh.edp

close command prompt

Use WDRT

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] fil3s:
Without a PC you can't run fastboot commands to unlock bootloader and root it. Twrp isn't available for stock a12, let alone the upcoming release of a13
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] jgrimberg1979:
Yes I know that is what I am saying. Is twrp or some recovery similar ever going to be compatible? If not I may be returning but I really don't want to. It's a great phone but I love playing with tweaks and mods. This is my not my main phone. My pixel is on a line I only use very seldomly
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] NippleSauce:
I don't think that you will find too many phones from the primary companies (Google, Samsung, etc) nowadays that will have TWRP builds. As time progresses, the technology (and what is available) progresses as well.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
This is the most recent news about Android 12 compatibility for TWRP:

TWRP 3.6.2 Released

TWRP 3.6.2 is out now for most currently supported devices.

twrp.me

Disclaimer: I am not advocating signing up for "Zulip", and I won't be doing so myself. When/if TWRP for Android 12 becomes available, I'll hear about it whether I sign up on there or not. :) It's also likely Android 13 will be stable by then. 🤣😉

Supposedly, the Official TWRP App (not itself updated since 2020) will notify when there's a new version - but I don't know if that applies to when there's no current version of TWRP Recovery already installed.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] 96carboard:
The reality is that for any device that actually has full working FASTBOOT, there is really no need for these types of recovery systems (i.e. twrp).

Screwing around with different OS builds while out and about is ill-advised no matter what. Leads you to the likely situation of getting yourself unbootable, which is bad. Its really not that big of a burden to plug in a wire when doing radical changes like that.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] jgrimberg1979:
It's not that much of a burden. You got to understand. It's been several years to a decade since I had a android and what I was used to was much different than now. I was used to always having a recovery that backs everything up and could swap roms if I wanted to if I flashed something wrong I could easily get into recovery and reflash the rom or just restore to another one. It's just different but I am grateful for what I have now but was hoping maybe there would be a recovery like twrp or cm recovery etc. Either way still happy for what we have
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] V0latyle:
Pixel devices do not have a recovery partition; recovery lives in /boot with the kernel, as well as whatever patches you've applied. Currently, TWRP and Magisk cannot coincide for whatever reason. You can patch a boot image with TWRP, and it'll work AFAIK....but if you try to patch it with Magisk too, you'll get a boot loop.

Because we have full fastboot access, there's not really any need for TWRP. You can dump and backup partition contents using fastboot, but it's tedious.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] 96carboard:
ADP, Nexus, and Pixel devices have NEVER needed a recovery to function fully. This goes right back to the first Android phone in 2008. So nothing really has changed in this respect. Its mostly the "other" brands that need a recovery to work around various restrictions.

Backups can be taken from within the main OS, and restored similarly, and this is actually much preferred since the backup can be stored to a remote location such as a self-hosted Nextcloud server. You can look into seedvault (integrated solution) and neobackup (root solution).
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Lughnasadh:
Since Android 11 you cannot have TWRP and Magisk installed at the same time or it will lead to a bootloop. However, you can fastboot boot TWRP (without installing it) and have Magisk installed without getting into a bootloop. At least this is the way it was on Android 11 with the Pixel 2 XL.

Haven't used TWRP in a long time and don't miss it at all, to be honest.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] josephxdaForum:
Hi there,

I am using a OnePlus 8 Pro on Oxygen OS 11, Global variant. I have been working on this for at least 10 hours now. I bought the OnePlus 8 Pro orginally running Oxygen OS 12, and when I flashed the recovery (TWRP) for the first time to two slots via this explanation

, I bricked the phone so the only tool accessible to me was fastboot.

Hmm okay, I'll just use MSM tool (https://xdaforums.com/t/op8pro-oos-...l-to-restore-your-device-to-oxygenos.4084953/) to revert back to oxygen OS so I can continue my mission.

I am trying to install the latest CRDROID from their official website after follow their instructions on here. I get as far as being in fastboot mode with the OEM unlocked, and then I try to flash the recovery they provided. It doesn't work. When I select boot into recovery, I get sent back to fastboot, however, when I flashed the original recovery img for Oxygen OS 11 I took from the payload dumper, it loads fine.

OKAY so now I am thinking that perhaps there is a problem with the recovery provided. That is fine so I choose to use TWRP to flash the custom ROM. Thankfully, it does work, and I am able to load into it through recovery, however when I tried to flash the rom through ABD sideload, from the PC whilst in TWRP, it doesn't load! It gets halfway and stops. I tried this several times to no avail.

I choose to then (after having bricked the phone several times by now and having to revert to factory settings with MSM tool), try to flash the custom ROM from the internal storage of the phone via TWRP. That still does not work. I have also tried this with Project Elixir. No success.

I don't know what to do guys. I have followed the instructions provided, but I don't understand why the phone is not accepting other custom recoveries or allowing me to flash a custom ROM.

All help is very much appreciate.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] xtcislove:
You have to make sure that you are on OOS11 on BOTH slots.

What i would do now:

Use MSM Tool to go to 11.0.4.4.

Boot the phone and flash 11.0.11.11 via local upgrade TWICE (to ensure its on both slots)

Follow the instructions of CRDROID etc.

Edit: Dont use TWRP on Android12 now.

[General Questions and Answers] GalaxyA325G:
1. I noticed the latest versions of Cellular-Z seems to have ads

even though the Google Play Store page for it says it doesn't have ads.

Cellular-Z by JerseyHo

Free, no ads, requires GSF, rated 3.9, 1.77K reviews, 100K+ Downloads

<https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=make.more.r2d2.cellular_z>

2. I don't remember the older versions having ads.

3. So I delete the version 6.0 Cellular-Z on my phone.

4. And I install an older 5.3 version I archived 3/8/2020.

Name: Cellular-Z-5.3_make.more.r2d2.cellular_z-55.apk

Size: 13223057 bytes (12 MiB)

SHA256: F4FCC19797AF649A66C6A9036FA16F177BA3DE0EE7702B9137D0F7C9E98264A3

5. When I run it, it puts up an unremovable demand to upgrade to 6.2.2

6. So I delete that and try an even older version 3.3 APK from 9/23/2019.

Name: Cellular-Z-3.3_make.more.r2d2.cellular_z-33.apk

Size: 10568133 bytes (10 MiB)

SHA256: 0C83C89EFF40D4048AAB3A2AFD726488A37D2FECF78F71EEA37327B72BAB0CD4

7. Same darn thing.

How the heck does the _older_ version know to do that?

And how can I NOT upgrade to the newer 6.2.2 version?

Note that it doesn't do it if I put the phone in airplane mode, and turn on the GPS radio, or if I then turn on the Wi-Fi radio but don't connect to an access point, and if I turn on cellular (but not cellular data) - but the forced update prompt happens when I connect to the Internet.

I was hoping turning off the net and pressing UPGRADE would make it go away but it didn't change anything.

Hi @zeus5676, and welcome to XDA.

If whatever kernel you're talking about is available for the Pixel 6 Pro, and you can unlock your bootloader, then yes, you can flash it. There are several kernels available here for the Pixel 6 Pro, if you weren't referring to a particular kernel by name. Just click the red "Development" quick-filter at the top of the list of threads in this section.

I also see you've posted a similar question in the Pixel 1 section. Which phone do you have? The Pixel 6 Pro or the Pixel 1? For what it's worth, there may be no single answer to your question in the Pixel 1 thread. Everyone has different preferences, and your best bet is to just try one and see what you like. As I said, there are several available in this section, although I don't remember any particularly mentioning gaming.

Was your phone originally RMX2155 or 2151 !?

The whole guide method was only for the version RMX2155

And what I mean,

for those who went to convert the RMX2155 to RMX2151,

So they could unlock the bootloader from version 2151

but after words, they should be able to convert back to there original model (RMX2155) fully, and everything should be good to get All the updates

and continue the guide method for how to install root

I may think you didn't get the updates because your phone originally is RMX2151 and not RMX2155?

This case happen to me before when I was decided to stay in RMX2151 and my phone originally is RMX2155 and I wasn't able to get OTA updates in the RMX2151

Not sure why.. but it has to do with the phone software I guess, at the end I convert back to my original model ( RMX2155 ) and here I was able to get All the updates

Try check your phone model number

If your phone is originally is RMX2151

I recommend to convert to your original model

And I think you're good to get All the updates

If your phone is originally RMX2155

Try check again for updates, use VPN

Hope this helps 😁
