[General Questions and Answers] tberma:
I have adopted my whole SD card and I have flashed Syberia custom kernel latest version and SELinux is permissive. It was working fine until I have used SWAPRAM by HuskyDG magisk module and rebooted It became unmountable though the encryption key exists in /data/misc/vold, but It does not work and even though I tried “sm mount private:179,194”, It seems applied as It does not throw any error but still It is not working after I recheck with “sm list-volumes” as It stills show unmountable. My /data is decrypted, but the SD card is not decrypted. How can I decrypt the card without losing data and prevent the problem from happening again?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Try flashing the kernel you had before. Then undo the Adoptable Storage process to return to default storage settings. Then boot into recovery and wipe the cache partition and dalvik cache. Then install the new kernel and reboot into system. Then set up Adoptable Storage again.
[General Questions and Answers] tberma:
Well, I was trying to recover, not to destroy the data in my SD. It seems whenever It changes fingerprint and/or use swap file It breaks along with /data.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
I did not say to factory reset or wipe the data partition. I said to wipe the cache/dalvik cache partition. This does not wipe your precious user data.
[General Questions and Answers] tberma:
Why should I undo the Adoptable Storage then?
[General Questions and Answers] tberma:
I had only Siberia kernel before applying adopted storage. Where is the problem? Is it in the kernel or not. Even TWRP do not want to work, and it crashes rebooting.
[General Questions and Answers] tberma:
After Ejecting SD temporally I managed to enter to TWRP, but It shows (I/O error) When I try to wipe Cache and Dalvik-Cache
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
When you setup adoptable storage, the external sdcard became incorporated into internal as if they are one complete drive. TWRP is looking for the external sdcard so it can wipe the cache partition.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
I'm saying to return the device to an unmodified stock working state without the custom kernel and without Adoptable Storage. Then you can install your custom kernel then setup adoptable storage again.

If flashing the kernel caused the issue and if the kernel and adoptable storage are able to work together, then, what I posted would be the best way to get to that point.
[General Questions and Answers] tberma:
I can't verify if It is a kernel problem. I need some many experiences. Still, I had to flash Syberia kernel for SELinux to be permissive. However, can you compile this new updated kernel for me, hopefully It fixes it? https://github.com/hi6250-oss-old/android_kernel_huawei_hi6250-8
[General Questions and Answers] tberma:
I was trying to insert my SD using Syberia kernel into the EMUI 8 ROM, but I could not and the UI gets freeze until I flashed stock kernel. I become able to use my SD. However, I cannot use this kernel on GSI because It is not permissive. Therefore, It is a kernel issue as far as I can see.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Android's kernel is the most important component to run a mobile device as it is a bridge between hardware and software of a mobile device. Without kernel it is not possible for a device to run. Installing a new kernel can be a bit dicey, but when done correctly there’s really a minimal risk. But, it is not necessary to flash a Custom Kernel in your device unless you want some additional features because the Stock Kernel provided by OEMs works out of the box and without any issues.

IMO a replacement of Stock Kernel by a Custom Kernel like Syberia doesn't always benefit you, especially if it wasn't compiled for the mobile device in question.
[General Questions and Answers] tberma:
Stock kernel does not support Selinux Permissive
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
This statement for me is absolute nonsense. Each Android's SELinux can set to permissive if Android is got rooted.

Depending on how your device was rooted and what Android ROM your running will determine how you can disable it. The first thing to try is:

adb shell su 0 setenforce 0

This is NOT the same as:

adb shell setenforce 0

The execute on su causes a domain transition from shell (which cannot setenforce) into the su domain (which can call setenforce).
[General Questions and Answers] tberma:
Still, It throws an error until I change the kernel. It is something famous with HW Hi6250.
[General Questions and Answers] tberma:
This is the error: setenforce: Couldn't set enforcing status to '0': Invalid argument
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Then try

adb shell "su -c 'setenforce permissive'"
[General Questions and Answers] tberma:
I went through a big error when the battery drained and the phone shutdown and could not turn it back on and redirect me to ERecovery until I flash the stock kernel. I booted, but ADB needs to be authorized from TWRP, therefore I have launched the command in Termux: "su" then "setenforce permissive": same error: Invalid argument.
[General Questions and Answers] tberma:
And there is no good kernel yet to handle /data while SELinux is permissive.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
My last idea: If file /etc/selinux/config exists, edit this file
[General Questions and Answers] tberma:
No, there is no such folder and file. There is fstab, however.
[General Questions and Answers] tberma:
Tried to create the file:

└─$ adb shell

prague:/ # echo "SELINUX=permissive

> SELINUXTYPE=targeted" > /etc/selinux/config

/sbin/sh: can't create /etc/selinux/config: No such file or directory

1|prague:/ # mkdir /etc/selinux

prague:/ # echo "SELINUX=permissive^JSELINUXTYPE=targeted" > /etc/selinux/config

prague:/ # cat /etc/selinux/config

SELINUX=permissive

SELINUXTYPE=targeted

prague:/ # exit

Same error:

└─$ adb shell

:/ $ su

:/ # setenforce 0

setenforce: Couldn't set enforcing status to '0': Invalid argument

Hi all,

I'm looking for a way to unlock my phone, have tried the official unlocking app without success (it's always giving me an error, 21003, I opened a thread also on zentalk community Asus UnlockApp not working)

Is there an unofficial way to unlock it? Or anybody have faced this issue and founded a way out?

Thanks

I remember that I had to run the unlocking process for a while before it eventually succeeded. I would say easily 50 times... I was about to stop when it worked.

Hello to all,

I'm here because I need help with a problem.

I have a onepus 9 pro model LE2121 (version LE2121_11_C.66). I think it is Indian from what I have read here.

I want to change it to the european version LE2123 (with android 13 if is posible).

I have tried to download the rom using the app "Oxygen updater" selecting the European device, it says that my version is Indian and that I must select the correct version, anyway I download the European version and then in settings > local installation, but I get an error when check the package and it doesn't start the installation. I have also tried the application "system update" but I still have the same problem.

As descrived here

(I haven't touched the roms on my devices for about ten years now... I seem to have gone stale.)

What am I doing wrong, or what do I have to do to be able to update?

Thank you all in advance

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] esteras:
Hello all,

Somebody knows how to compare the embedded Fire OS 7 into this Smart TV with the actual Fire stick devices? Can I use the root/TWRP options the same as 4k devices?

I try to improve the performance of this TV because its very poor factory configuration. I only get better response closing open apps with "Background Apps & Process List" but sometimes I need an extra. Any suggestion?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Finnzz:
There's no bootloader unlock / rooting methods for any of the FireTV televisions. Many of the new televisions use a MTK T31 SOC.

I have no idea if it has the same 2 vulnerabilities as the 4k / 3rd gen Sticks. If it did you would still have to modify the exploits to work with your television's bootloader (considerable amount of work).

You're better off using a debloat tool to disable any unnecessary apps. You could also buy a 4k stick, root it and use it as your primary OS, or another TV box.

I see your thread that helped to revive the Redmi 6A. I am trying to find a way to access my Huawei P9, which has a black screen after being exposed to water. The phone works, as I can receive calls and messages, but I cannot see anything.

I would like to know how to bypass the USB RSA debugging authentication, so I can access the phone and see the system screen. I do not know how to do this, and I am not sure if these guidelines with those tools could help me access the phone or if it is possible to do that with other tools or manipulation. I have already tried some steps with ADB, but I can't seem to gain access. SInce I have changed two new Huawei P9 LCD screens and cleaned the board with ultrasonic cleaning, thincking the it was only a LCD issue, but the screen is still black.

After that, I tried to connect the LCD of another phone, the Huawei P9+, to the hardbricked Huawei P9, but unfortunately, it doesn't work. Now I have two issues because when I put back the Huawei P9+ LCD screen, the "touch screen" does not work anymore, I can only view the screen. Bypassing the RSA authentication can at least allow me to see and manage the two phones it with my PC.

Can someone help me with these issues, please?

[HTC Typhoon] klpeake:
I have upgraded my SMT5600 (Typhoon) to 6.1.

Now, how do I purchase software from the mobile software houses for the unit (ie., Handango, Pocketgear, etc.)? What parameters would I put into their system to make sure that the software that I was purchasing would work on this unit? Do I put in the phone as an SMT5600 (because then their system will assume that it is a WM2003 system) or do I buy software for a newer HTC unit that has WM6.1 on it?

Thanks
[HTC Typhoon] gianluca_d:
Be careful. you can not buy software for the SMT5600 @ 2k3 because its operating system is too different. You can not even buy the software dedicated to a modern device with wm6.1, because the recent devices have better features (cpu, memory, etc.).. I think the best thing is to focus on devices wm6.1 but test the software before you buy.
[HTC Typhoon] spone1:
I think the HTC S310 which runs WM5 stock is reasonably comparable to the Typhoon in a matter of resolution and memory. The difference between WM2003SE and WM5 is bigger than the difference between WM5 and WM6(.1).

Nevertheless, like the above poster said, be sure to first try out before buying.

Did this happen after you upgraded to OOS 13 possibly, or are you running a custom ROM?
