[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SerenityNetworks:
@SPLESHER

Thank you. However, perhaps I'm not understanding the purpose of a custom ROM. I used Odin to restore the phone to the stock OS (L720VPUGOK3_L720SPTGOK3_L720VPUGOK3_HOME.tar.md5). My root access was lost, but looking at the "LineageOS on jfltespr" instructions, I saw that root was not required. So, I followed the instructions, installed LineageOS, and rebooted into recovery. I successfully received the 4 option prompt. At that point I didn't know what to do, so I chose the option to reboot. I did, but was only returned to the stock OS. I was thinking I would have a new OS that didn't contain the Google apps, but only a streamlined set of applications.

What gives? I'm trying to get rid of the FreedomPop OS and associated applications. Is this possible? If so, how do I go about it?

Note: The phone does not have a carrier plan. All I have is WiFi and USB access.

Thank you,

Andrew

PS. I wouldn't mind having a number of the Google apps and access to the play store. I followed the link to the GApps (MindTheGapps) pages and even downloaded the zip file, but I do not understand how to install it. But first things first. I'd like a fairly robust OS that gits rid of the FreedomPop stuff.

I don't know why you tag Splesher. I replied you xD

Check my guide to install custom recovery, then check my guide to install custom ROM. Everything is on the link above. :p
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SerenityNetworks:
@Retrial , sorry. On my phone it appeared like splesher wrote the post. I now see it was you and his was a thumbs-up and you provided the information.

I'll take a look again at the material at the link you posted. But there is so much material and these are processes outside my experience. I confess I am kind of guessing what I need and what I need and what is unnecessary. I don't need all the Google Apps, but I might need access to the PlayStore. There are a few apps I want to install that I know are on the PlayStore. I don't know if there are other ways to get the apk files outside of the PlayStore. I don't necessarily need an OS that is constantly being developed. I just want a few working apps. I'll never be adding the phone to a carrier's network. I'll just be using WiFi. Knowing all this and that I just want to get rid of the FreedomPop OS and install a streamlined custom OS, would you mind just listing (in order) the high-level steps I need to perform?

Thanks,

Andrew
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SerenityNetworks:
@Retrial UPDATE: I have...

Installed Bootloader and Modem

Installed TWRP (and can reboot to TWRP as needed)

Installed Magisk Root (and confirmed that I have successfully rooted the phone)

Now I have no clue what to do next. I just want a custom ROM that will get rid of the FreedomPop OS and let me install a few apps from the Google Play Store.

Thanks,

Andrew
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Retrial:
No need to root if you don't want to.

So assume you are on TWRP, follow my clean installation guide.

Choose a custom ROM of your choice from my collection and follow my guide.

In TWRP wipe the mentioned partitions from my guide, format data, connect your device to pc while you are in twrp, transfer the rom and gapps and flash them.

Let me know which ROM you want to flash so I can tell you exactly the steps and which gapps to flash.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SerenityNetworks:
@Retrial Thanks. I have downloaded the zip files for "crDroidAndroid-11.0-20220915-jfltexx-v7.22" and "LineageOS++-19.1-V1.0". I don't know which would be best to use. Any suggestions? I can move the zip files to the SD card in the phone, but when in TWRP the phone does not appear in Windows File Explorer. I don't know why.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Retrial:
If you have sd card you can move the files there. Make sure have samsung USB drivers installed for PC to recognize your device. (You can find them in my collection)

The LineageOS++ 19.1 is for POCO F1 not for S4. Do not flash that. Read carefully the tags and what you download.

You can choose between these:

Official LineageOS 18.1

Optimized LineageOS 19.1

Official crDroid 18.1

Official DivestOS 18.1

Let me know what you want to flash to tell you what GApps you need. But if you read my guide everything is there explained with details.

(I may answer you tommorow since it late here)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SerenityNetworks:
@Retrial I was able to successfully flash "Optimized-LineageOS-19.1-V7.0" and "MindTheGapps-12.1.0-arm-20220605_111643". Most functions with the new OS seem to be working well. However, installing and updating apps seems to struggle. Last night I started the install for four apps and Google Play said four apps needed updating. As of this morning only one application had been installed. The others continued to show "Pending..." I cancelled the seven remaining installs & updates, and retried with just one. It just stays at "Pending...". Thoughts on how I can get apps to install and update?

Also, one suggestion. In the steps I followed, I finally got to the bullet point "Flash ROM > GApps [Optional]", but I couldn't find instructions on how to perform the flash. I had to go to another site and tutorial on how to perform that step. If those instructions are provided in your guides, I didn't find them. Perhaps a hyperlink to them would help other users.

Thanks again,

Andrew
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] nrhgeursjew:
My phone is a Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 5G, as most of you know by now. I set fingerprint and BASIC key attestation to Pixel 6, and have Device Simulation on too (product.brand, product.name and product.device. I can't enable product.model though for some reason. It just doesn't give me the option but it does tell me that it's disabled).

YASNAC (Yet Another SafetyNet Attestation Checker) says that I'm failing Basic Integrity and CTS Profile Match. (Evaluation type: BASIC, Advice: 'RESTORE TO FACTORY ROM')

I also have the Universal SafetyNet Bypass module, which doesn't work either.

I have attached the MagiskHide Props Config logs too. (Main Menu > Option number 8)

Play Store says my device is uncertified.
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] nrhgeursjew:
Oh that's so weird! Google just gave me a email saying "Welcome to your Pixel 6". I guess it's detecting the props but SafetyNet is like: 'Nope!'
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] nrhgeursjew:
Is anybody going to help?
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] tearex:

[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] roirraW "edor" ehT:
@nrhgeursjew,

Have you tried the latest @Displax Universal SafetyNet Fix v2.4.0-MOD_1.2 on XDA or GitHub?
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] nrhgeursjew:
Thanks for responding here and to my report. I'll try this a little later!
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] roirraW "edor" ehT:
You're welcome, and I hope it does the trick for you.
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] nrhgeursjew:
Thank you! If you have the time, could you help me with this?
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] nrhgeursjew:
It didn't work. Device is still uncertified. I know why and I found the fix - the fingerprint that came with my phone is uncertified, so when I use MagicHide Props to change it then it works. I stated in my original post that doing this didn't work but somehow, in 2023, it does! Yay!
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I don't have this phone, and I haven't flashed a custom ROM in the last seven years, so I apologize, but I can't help regarding that issue. I just thought I could weigh in on the more general subject of this thread.

Too bad it didn't work, but I'm glad you found that MagiskHide Props is doing the trick now. FYI, sometimes fixes for these kinds of things, including using the USNF (Universal SafetyNet Fix) take some time to be reflected in the OS, isn't necessarily instantaneous, and sometimes requires wiping some Google apps' cache and data and/or an extra reboot.
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] nrhgeursjew:
Thank you, again, for your responses. I ended up re-flashing the phone with Pixel Experience and then changing fingerprint to Pixel 6, as mentioned here:

Hopefully this fixes the keyboard issue. I think it has though since it hasn't disappeared in a while.

[Fire TV General] CmdrCrichton:
Hey, I have a new Fire TV Series 4 (brandenburg) which is showing current FireOS 7.2.4.0 but Amazon’s website says latest version is 7.2.7.9. Does anyone else have this issue? I’ve tried updating resetting and it says up to date. Is there a way to manually install the latest version?
[Fire TV General] Finnzz:
You can't manually install update bins but you can clear the update app of old data in case that is holding things up.

Use ADB to call this command:

adb shell pm clear com.amazon.device.software.ota

You should get a 'success' message, then go to FireOS settings and check for updates again.
[Fire TV General] CmdrCrichton:
Thanks. It cleared it as once restarted it says "Last Checked: Never" lol but unfortunately still won't update. They're apparently aware of the issue as I contacted support and they said their technical teams are working on it.
[Fire TV General] Dcxtreme84:
Did you have any joy with them? This has been going on for ages now, bought a new tv with massively out of date firmware.
[Fire TV General] CmdrCrichton:
Nope. It's the same story "you have the latest version" even though I clearly don't. I tried contacting the social media team and they had me sent over information and then I got a reply back "I don't see an account with this email" and nothing since. I'm probably going to have them replace under warranty and cross my fingers the new one comes with new firmware without an issue.
[Fire TV General] Dcxtreme84:
This is an absolute joke - I might actually get this returned.
[Fire TV General] CmdrCrichton:
Finally after contacting support through their social media team and giving them access to the device logs it looks like they fixed it. I just checked for an update and it's now downloading the latest version 7.2.9.2
[Google Pixel 6] eng.3aref:
So I've been rocking the Pixel 6 for three months now and I have to say that the charging speed is confusing, sometimes I feel it is fast and sometimes I feel it is slow. Now I am aware of the watt throttling thing, so I bought a USB C cable with a tiny display that shows how much watt is being poured into the phone, I've been observing the patterns for the past couple of days. All my observation are done while adaptive charging is off

Yes it charges at 25-26 watt when the battery is below 50%, and starts to slow down as the battery fills up. At 90% the watt would usually be below 10. Yet sometimes it would act out of the pattern, sometimes I catch it charging at 14 watts or lower when the battery is below 50%, and the phone is not even warm or anything.

This whole throttling thing is very confusing, I don't know when the phone decides to charge faster or slower, and I don't have control over it. I would definitely say that this is the worst thing about such a great phone, and it really sucks.

I wish I am able to turn off charging throttling when I need to juice up the phone as fast as possible, and keep it on at regular times. Is there such a workaround?
[Google Pixel 6] Gytole:
It's controlled by heat. Keep the phone cool, I put mine on a little fan while it is charging and it stays at 30+ watts.
[Google Pixel 6] eng.3aref:
I don't think heat is a factor, my phone is usually cool while it is charging
[Google Pixel 6] Gytole:
Also it trickles down once it fills up so you are more than likely rightabout the charge slowing down. but heat IS a factor we just don't know at what temp ot slows charge yet, we're figuring it out. But yeah 😎
[Google Pixel 6] eng.3aref:
I get your point, but what I'm saying is that it acts against the norms, it's cool all the time, sometimes it charges slow when it's under 50%, other times it charges fast while it's above 50%. The unpredictability added to the lack of control over this behaviour is annoying :/
[Google Pixel 6] olli_the_bri:
I have similiar problems. But it all started with August update. Wireless charging only worked liked in 60% of the cases and now with the September update it feels like the overall charging speed got slowed down a lot...
[Google Pixel 6] KWKSLVR:
You could also be seeing where the devices is drawing more power because it's doing some of the things a phone will do while charging (syncing backups, auto updating apps, etc).

Hi

I know it's a little too late, but I need to update my Android to RCA Viking 10 Pro RCT6303W87DK.

[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions & ] ryanwalkerr:
A person sold me a Samsung Galaxy S20 (SM-G980F/DS Exynos) which later I found out had a host of issues that he was cleverly hiding with software. Obviously he wouldn't take the phone back so I am stuck with a potential brick in my hands. Maybe you guys can help solve the puzzles so I can use the phone.

The goal is to reset the thing back to stock, unfortunately, it's not as easy as flashing with Odin. Here are the obstacles:

- The phone appears to be from Hungary with CSC = WWB

- Through lots of research, WWB is potentially Westel which was later bought by Telekom in Hungary

- I live in Czech Republic and I am using O2. (CSC = O2C)

- I used SamFW_FRP Tool to change the CSC to O2C

- I used Frija to download the official stock Samsung firmware (G980FXXEFVG5_MQB54197944, OS12)

- I used Odin 3.14.4 to flash the stock rom onto the S20 (SM-G980F/DS Exynos)

Puzzle 1: The phone sees but can not use the sims. Only emergency calls. This is weird because when the guy sold me the phone, I tested all the functions and the calls and data worked perfect. After the flash, looks to be a different story. Currently, the APNs are correctly set.

Puzzle 2: The Knox setting has been tripped but the phone can't scan for Google Updates because it says "the software has been modified in an unauthorized way"

Can you help me solve the puzzles?
