[Sony Xperia 1 III] Dr. Claw:
This is exactly what I do with both iSyncr and media Re:scan (a Android media scanner app). The latter is pretty much crap in its current version on the Play Store. For one, it doesn't even see the microSD card on Android 11+ because of that SAF garbage. And then it started putting full screen video ads on the app. Even on Android 10 devices I downgrade because the ads are ridiculous (with no option to remove them). Previous version had less bothersome ads and actual functionality.

Making SAF a requirement is the worst; there was a reason why developers never used it before they were forced. Any app that needs to use files should be allowed to use "All Files" access and request permission for each directory it needs to use, instead of this scoped storage crap. If I wanted a "fake file system" I would have used an iPhone.

Hello Jenneh. Does the image downloaded from uupdump have newer versions of packages ?
[Windows 11] jenneh:
Hey there, if you specifically select the latest version of win 10 or win 11 "22h2" and look at the date it was uploaded, they will have packages as new as that date. They source everything from microsoft themselves and say the updates come from the update server, it seems that way when you run the script I just don't quite understand their sourcing method well enough yet to explain better but will get there.

[Windows 11] P414DIN:
Hi jenneh, when you download from uupdump, you can configure the download of ConvertConfig + CustomAppsList. Try this.
[Windows 11] b1k3rdude:
Thanks for creating this little tool, had a quick look but cant see how/where I would be able to choose which features/apps get removed..?

@P414DIN I'm kind of silly but I am not finding / figuring out how to do this specifically. Are you able to explain a little more? I wanted to explore more exactly how UUP's script connects to the updater to code it out myself but if I could see the options it could give me an idea of the backend if that makes sense

@jenneh when you run the uup_download_windows.cmd script, additional files are downloaded, with which you can already configure this. Сheck it out ReadMe.htmlView attachment 5753711
[Windows 11] jenneh:
@P414DIN Goodness, How Simple. Seriously Thank You. I lack common sense sometimes and really appreciate any and all Help XD

[Windows 11] jenneh:
So I had the time to finally try this and was able to try many things. My question is this, have you been able to edit any of the packages in the aria script, which has some of the same packages and more, that we removed using dism or modwin?

As far as I can tell UUP calls this aria script from github which runs concurrently with the other script, making edits difficult as far as I have tried. Am I doing things wrong?

Spoiler content hidden.

If there's not an easier way to stop the package download, maybe it's possible to rewrite the script with only needed packages and that combined with the other iso creation utilities UUP has built-in to their script, could turn "Lite" ISO creation into a one step process.

The way they pack the isos is fascinating, so there's a lot to be learned there.

What I tried already was running the uup_download_windows.cmd so I could obtain all the downloads, then I edited the aria2 script, saved it to a new converter folder, added my ConvertConfig.ini with modifications, ran uup_download_windows.cmd in the new iso converter folder, but it downloaded a new aria2 script, or at least named it differently, even though it was a copy of the same iso creation zip just in a different folder
[Windows 11] P414DIN:
@jenneh After creating the iso, you need to configure ConvertConfig.ini, and run convert-UUP.cmd. I liked your idea, I'll try to do something with it, but I don't promise the result))​
[Windows 11] jenneh:
Thank You. I appreciate your Time and This Share!!
[Windows 11] P414DIN:
Hello @jenneh​

watch my video

I failed to reduce the download of junk files. Without the files that are in the uup folder, you will not be able to create install, since all dependencies are already registered in professional_.esd. It seems to me that you can remove modern apps from downloading. I'll try to do it.
[Windows 11] jenneh:
@P414DIN I Really Appreciate you taking the time to test. I was just thinking about that earlier, if the packages were some how chained dependencies. I will eagerly await your results!

Spoiler content hidden.
[Windows 11] jenneh:
An update is pending, I was hoping to get it out before I had to sleep but it is looking unlikely. Some of the updates include, removing the cleaning commands in all the scripts, that removed files and folders on the installer iso, and making it an optional batch that you can use for testing, fixed the build environment so ctrl + h is uneeded and some QoL tools to make iso inspection and tinkering easier. I have made a new video that I will actually talk you through the changes and how to use things, I will release that tomorrow whenever the update is complete. rebuilt SAMPLE isos will be included.

Where the trouble lies and the reason I couldn't get it out today is the Windows11 UUPDUMP image is now bootlooping on me before it makes it to the second part of the installer. I think it has something to do with how I recompressed the wim at the end and used /recovery and now I question if that line's even needed or what. I am testing through that to get the definitive answer to be able to update everything correctly tomorrow.

https://xdaforums.com/t/hazzam-a-native-windows-image-deployment-tool.4518457/

josh made a much better tool I will play with tomorrow! I will release my update still for learning's sake and hopefully his tool works as well as it looks! How exciting!

[Windows 11] jenneh:
saved for notes. I had a whole thing going on here that was a non thing bc I am silly and probably shoulda slept more yesterday but oh well :) oh if you must know, I was so upset bc everytime i mounted install.wim it would show winpe packages, which is the same as boot.wim and i was like why is my install.wim looking like a boot.wim wahhh and I redownloaded 3 different isos, only to find out hours later I forgot I changed my mount batch to mount boot.wim and not install.wim. x,x sigh
[Windows 11] jenneh:
@joshyouwaaa gosh this is really neat. and you have done the part i haven't done yet with the vhdx deployment, it looks like. literally was going to be my next project (and still is) after I learn how to do FFU images. I am really looking forward to reading your work properly after I finish this update, I am sure I will learn A Lot. Thank You so much!
[Windows 11] jenneh:
Okay my update is out. I had to change the /recovery to /max. Maybe someone can figure out the compression better and help us to make things smaller without breaking functionality :) I tried as much as I am willing to for the batch, I will investigate further solely for the future super lite isos I am still working on.

edit I fixed the problem
[Windows 11] jenneh:
Okay, now that I've had a good day's sleep I think I understand my problems. The bootloop was caused bc I left in a package in the UUP SCRIPT that Cannot be removed even though dism allows you to. I am fixing that package in the UUP script now.

So That means that the RECOVERY compression May Be fine? Meaning we can get our isos down to 2.5 gigs and booting. Testing now and will update those two lines of code in the tools when finished. I'll also correct the REMOVE folder scripts

Everything is working in this current toolset except the all in one UUP win11 script needs an edit to remove the bad package line and the recovery compression is being tested again now just for completeness.
[Windows 11] jenneh:
OKAY I FINALLY KNOW THE ANSWER

dism /export-image /SourceImageFile:"C:\MODWIN\WIM\mod.wim" /SourceIndex:1 /DestinationImageFile:"C:\MODWIN\ISO\sources\install.esd" /Compress:recovery /CheckIntegrity && pause

WORKS~! It always did I just was not thinking about the problem I was having yesterday, correctly..

So we Can use the Recovery Compression to make our isos 2.5 or so gigs for UUPDUMP images, roughly 3 gigs or so for stock media creation tool isos.

I am fixing the scripts this last time and verifying everything works before re-releasing the isos and mod tool. Since I went through all the effort I will release a sample ISO for every version of the scripts. So it will be 6 new isos. I think uup has changed the win10 packages for the 22h2 version so I will write a new script for it. This will help to illustrate the differences in file sizes for each image source and version

Recipe for a Bootloop, Anyone? Haha
[Realme GT Master Edition] Gabiblocks:
Here is a quick story about my experience with the Realme GT ME. You can call it a review, i guess.

So i’ve been using a Honor 8x since it’s release in 2018 and it was all working fine. After 3.5 years it became kinda laggy and slow-ish so it was a time for upgrade. After some research etc. i choose the Realme GT ME (8GB ram 256GB rom model) and i bought it in december 2021 as a christmas gift for myself. It all started fine, the phone was amazing and all of that. After around 8 months i started to experience sound issues. System sounds (touch sound, camera shutter, lock/unlock sound etc.) sometimes were on big delay, they would play after 5 minutes or more (software issue/bug? Audio IC issue?), multimedia sounds worked fine tho. I ignored it and used the phone. Almost 10 months after i bought it i started experiencing weird graphical glitches, usually while scrolling (CPU/GPU issue?). That got me a little mad but i decided to ignore that too. 10 months after another issue appeared. There were no sound during call and i couldn’t hang up. That got me ultra mad. I said **** it and bought myself a Honor 70. Let’s hope the quality of this brand didn’t go down since 2018. So far it’s good, im typing from it. About realme, what i am trying to say is that they have tendency to break. Mine broke, my friend’s C11 broke 2 times already, another friend’s 50 pro completly broke after 5 months. As a conclusion, don’t buy a realme phone if you wanna use it for longer than a year.

Thats all from me, bye.
[Realme GT Master Edition] mattia.b89:
Why didn't you benefit of warranty?
[Realme GT Master Edition] Gabiblocks:
Looking at other people experiences i think it would be a waste of time because it can break again. It's laying in my phone drawer, im proabably going to fix it on warranty and sell it.
[Realme GT Master Edition] enonaw:
RealmeUI is a piece of **** without a name. So we can wonder about the quality of firmwares... But the components are of good quality. I recommend to install a custom rom based on AOSP.
[Realme GT Master Edition] barcode99:
i don't think this is a review, it's a unit failure and it should be repaired by warranty. Units fail here and there, it has nothing to do with the model or the brand
[Realme GT Master Edition] enonaw:
I'm totally agree with that. "Don't buy Realme GT ME !". Lol. Unnecessary comment on XDA.
[Realme GT Master Edition] Skilly1989:
I own this phone and its working as it should. charging only with original cable , keeping it away from water and dont flex-it . maybe there is something that you guys do wrong with your phones . i'm not shure , what do you expect from cheapest mid-range phones on the market to do ? gt master's equiped with same hardware as samsung phones and the software pack is from google so it should be just fine with normal usage
[Realme GT Master Edition] xeltos:
Hardware 4.5 stars.

Camera 4 stars.

Realme OS: Negative 5 stars.

I have posted about the weird in pocket behavior when using wired headphones where skin touch on the screen registers even when the phone is in pocket triggering mute, hold, record etc.

I have this once a month super slowdown issue where screen starts flickering which is only fixed with a reboot.

Not to mention unremovable apps (except via adb)

The Bluetooth sound dampening issue after android 12 update is also noticeable. (audio suddenly drops to about 80% and loses clarity noticeably, feels dampened. )
[Realme GT Master Edition] Skilly1989:
Dude , I'm using the phone daily at it's full potential. 5G , NFC , calls , browsing , Bt music , games. Never gave this phone one single day of break and have no issues hw or sw.
[Realme GT Master Edition] Skilly1989:
My experience with the phone is great untill today , dont go on high expectations on second hand phones , use the benefits of a warranty.

Hi there,

Have installed crdroid and was loving it until I realized there is no way to run Authenticator by google on my phone (without gapps nor nothing of ****ty bloatware), only reliable apps.

So decided to install lineage as in my previous op7t pro, but the cam is a garbage... so searched for gcam and downloaded 2 apps without success on running any of them.

So there is a way to have stock camera on lineage os?

Appreciate your help! Thanks in advance

Maybe this helps too: https://xdaforums.com/t/how-do-i-in...-app-on-lineageos-18-1.4414821/#post-86567423 but there's people complaining about the Camera too - just read or use the search fuction, it's a long thread :) Good luck!

[G1 Android Development] vSymm:
WiFi on campus here uses WPA enterprise auth - good. I was shocked when I saw that the phone seemingly didn't support it. Network didn't even appear in the list, and Add Network only supports WPA Personal / WEP. How Apple of them. But WHY? It's wpa_supplicant behind the scenes.

I've been using campus wifi successfully for a few days now. It seems to integrate well enough - the wifi settings menu doesn't seem to break at all, the enterprise-authed network and status are listed correctly including the 'lock' icon, etc.

These instructions are slightly modified from being specific to the particular university (posted locally too, you see). If you can rub some braincells together, this can be adapted. The parts regarding a certificates file may or may not be needed in your setup, for example.

* Get a root shell

* cd /data/misc/wifi/

* cat wpa_supplicant.conf

* The existing supplicant config is displayed - copy and paste it into a text editor (the beginning bits are important, as are your existing networks)

* Paste in a working wpa_supplicant.conf section for your network at the end

* Fill in username and password in the new section. Replace the path for cacerts.pem with /data/misc/wifi/cacerts.pem

* Save the new config onto the SD card

* Save the cacerts.pem (same site) onto the SD card also

* On the handset: In the settings/storage menu, disable the SD card for USB storage (otherwise, can't access it from the shell)

* rm wpa_supplicant.conf

* cp would be used here normally, but it isn't in the stock image: dd if=/sdcard/wpa_supplicant.conf of=wpa_supplicant.conf

* chmod 666 wpa_supplicant.conf (Warning! Readable/Writable by EVERYONE! Use 664 such that only root can write it if you want, but this will possibly disallow changes by the settings app - if chown was available, ownership would be reverted back to wifi:wifi)

* dd if=/sdcard/cacerts.pem of=cacerts.pem

* chmod 444 cacerts.pem (needs to be readable by wifi user)

* The network should appear in the wifi menu and connect if you enable wifi. Reboot if not maybe?

Problems:

* Permissions are a bit wonky due to lack of chown. The process would be cleaner with busybox installed (possible with root), but this process is written to work on a stock RC29 handset.

* It will almost surely fail following an update. Try not to give up root before the WiFi UI is patched

* Maybe there's a reason that enterprise auth is absent from the settings UI

* WiFi settings page may or may not break. WiFi settings page may or may not undo your changes.

A quick troubleshooting tip: if you've dealt with wpa_supplicant before, note that wpa_cli is available to root. Helpful to diagnose any issues that crop up.

Enjoy.
[G1 Android Development] jashsu:
I suspect it's because the majority of consumers only access wifi networks secured through psk or mac-address. iirc my university used mac-address too. Not sure if that's changed by now. In any case, I wouldn't hold my breath for official support on the G1. Maybe on some future Android device with enterprise in mind.

Anyway, good tips and good first post. Welcome to the forum :)
[G1 Android Development] Koush:
busybox has chown
[G1 Android Development] ipaqkiller:
WPA2

Can I ask a question?

The SSID for your campus wifi is not broadcasted, correct? if this is true, then it won't show up and the only way to get access is to add it manually.

Now when you go to add it manually, did you try to change the type of security before you flipped out the keyboard? Just wondering since WPA2 is clearly seen if you have the keyboard in and if you have it out it looks like WPA2 isn't an option but if you try to move the security box with a swipe up with your finger, WPA2 will be shown. I haven't had a single problem attaching to my home or work network using WPA2 PSK since RC19 and beyond.
[G1 Android Development] vSymm:
Yep, busybox has chown - which makes the whole thing cleaner and safer. My instructions were written originally with no assumptions as to previous modding, incl how to get telnet.

The wifi network here does broadcast, but is filtered out due to "unsupported" security. Add network lists wpa2 personal but not enterprise.
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
I modified my wpa_supplicant.conf file using your instructions and it worked!

Thanks!

Dave
[G1 Android Development] bsoft:
Because there's a substantial amount of UI work that needs to be done for WPA2-Enterprise compared with the relatively common WPA2-PSK.

My advice? If official support is something you'd like, go write it and submit a patch to the Android devs.
[G1 Android Development] happyface_0:
Not working

I can't get this to work. It says "failed to start wifi".

My non-enterprise wifi won't even work now. It connects but apps say network error.

I am trying to connect to my university's wifi that is "Secure 802.1X authentication and EAP-TTLS with PAP inner-authentication (anonymous)"

Can anyone give me an example config for this? It doesn't use a certificate.
[G1 Android Development] vSymm:
Confirm that the permissions were set correctly on wpa_supplicant.conf

I'm sure you can find an example for that particular setup online somewhere.

Neither WPA-Enterprise nor WPA-2 Enterprise are available yet without actually editing the wpa_supplicant configuration manually, even on RC33.
