I got a new F22 that was shipped with version 2.0.0 no Gapps, when I press vol up+down when turned off, I get to a chinese debug menu instead of brom mode to use mtkclient so what is the currently supported method for cfw flashing? pure fastboot? also my phone no longer boots, i have so far only used fastboot to clear userdata and flash twrp. Also, is there a way to disable secure boot?

I can't find a link to download NVT Clean V2, I went through the whole thread here... So I made my own one (the link is valid from another half hour or so for two days). But I would love to get a download link for NVT Clean v2.

https://send.magicode.me/send-file/file/71069e08fcc723b7180856e84271390fc9c0b203/view

(unpack the .xz file, and this is super.img)

Changes from orginal NVT:

* Restore orginal MTKClendar

* Add AOSP keyboard (on screen), and replace QinPad to a more convenient version in my opinion, with Hebrew and English.

* Restore orginal DeskClock

* Files - which I really don't like the fact that it opens in "Downloads" I switched to LineageOS 18 Files (i.e. Android 11, because due to 12 also has this problem) to open in the general folder of the device.

* Replace bootanimation

* Remove system updater

* Debloat&&cleanup

* Some patches in Hebrew strings

Thanks to NVT for the great work on the ROM, I just made corrections to things I didn't like.

[Galaxy S3 Neo General] Jeffry84:
Hello, first post here.

Some time ago my old S3 Neo (GT-I9301I) fell and the screen broke. I replaced it and it can boot to system (still its stock OS), but now at boot instead of showing the Samsung boot screen it shows garbage before reaching the "desktop" and recovery and download are inoperable. In addition, if I try to reboot it, either through its interface or ADB, it just shuts down.

I hope I can rule out a hardware fault and hopefully find a way to restore it through software.

It's not my main phone and I just intend to play around with it, mostly trying custom ROMs.

Any clues? Thanks for any help
[Galaxy S3 Neo General] blackhawk:
Damaged or improperly connected ribbon cable/pins(s).

Mobo was damaged when display broke or during repair.

Wrong part.

My guesses...
[Galaxy S3 Neo General] Jeffry84:
Heh, unfortunately I can confirm it's faulty hardware. Yesterday the new screen started to flicker even in the system, and then it just went black or showing garbage from time to time. I could try with another mobo if I can find a very cheap one, but that's all.
[Galaxy S3 Neo General] Jeffry84:
Superfluous reply maybe, but I wanted to share a bit of joy nonetheless :)

Found a cheap mobo in eBay and transplanted on my phone.

I could install LineageOS on it, no issues =D
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheLazyGuyDE:
X - stands for any bootloader, so for example the installed Samsung Bootloader or an own one (by the process of changing it, the fuse normally burns)

Hello out there,

is there any way to develop and install an own Linux System on a given Samsung Galaxy Tab and implement the knox security features and use those, a way of rooting and later unrooting the tab and all this without burning of the knox fuse?

How does the knox (software? hardware?) check the given kernel for manipulation? With checksums? And: Is there a checksum to compare with in the chip, that was created at some point in time? How does the knox (software? hardware?) achieve this?

I want to develop it for business reasons.

Thank you for your answers.

Kind regards,

TheLazyGuyDE, Germany

Any interference with the bootloader burning the Knox fuse.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheLazyGuyDE:
This Videos:

and

and

describe the knox Kernel protection. But how does this work? Is it on a software basis?

How is the comparison getting achieved?

What role does the knox Chip Play within this process? What has to be done Prior/after a Kernel Update and can a Software Change burn the Fuse?

What isn't working anymore after burning the fuse?

How does Samsung put and verify the software on the phones?

Is there a checksum of the installed Android software created in the knox chip?

I don't want to use magisk, but want to have real root mode and want to install an own Linux distribution.

What disadvantages do I have? Can I use all hardware parameters, like SIM-Card, Videocamera, etc.?

Thanks for your answers,

Kind regards,

TheLazyGuyDE
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheLazyGuyDE:
But how did Samsung themselves prevent this, when they installed their bootloader? There has to be a way to circumvent the burning of the fuse! (I am not a hacker, I am a developer)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ze7zez:
System-critical files from samsung are digitally signed with its own algorithm and checked during flashing. Therefore, there is no worry that someone will modify these files and flash. In case of fake flashing, in the mildest scenario the attempt will be rejected, and in the worst scenario the fuse will be burned.

This is why bussiness customers can safely choose samsung products.

p.s.

Hacker does not have a pejorative meaning. It is people without knowledge who demonize hackers, confusing them with crackers.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheLazyGuyDE:
I do not demonize hackers, I'm sorry if you got that wrong and my words didn't express what I meant: I solely wanted to express, that I am no person who committs any unlawful interference in any aspect, any country in relation to the hacking or cracking of foreign mobile phones or any device.

The only devices I work with and that's allowed are the ones that are mine.

So to speak: Any information or maybe classified information I get is in good hands.

-

In relation to the topic: A digital signature of a kernel seems to be a unique extract from specific bits of it's code, which than has to be programmed into the knox chip to make the comparison possible.

With each Kernel Update, this process has to be done, to make the above mentioned security method possible.

Does anybody know if Samsung offers the possibility of doing so with an own kernel or distro, that is not Android?

Kind regards,

TheLazyGuyDE
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ze7zez:
I doubt it.

Samsung does not provide file signing tools.

Verizon has an agreement for the product line, but it is still android based.

[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] eried1:
Found a brand new Lenovo P2 from a very reputable seller.

Would you pull the trigger in 2022, almost 2023? I think this phone has almost everything. The screen could be brighter and the camera a bit better, but other than that I have absoutely no complaints.

LOS18 will easily last another three years so it can compete with e.g. Motorola and Sony who only give their phones 2-3 updates.

A bit worried that the battery might have degraded while unused, but have 30 days to make up my mind.
[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] eried1:
Received today. The battery was completely depleted. Will have to test the capacity.
[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] Fatih_BaKeR:
I'm jealous that you found a brand new p2, I can't find it in my country but I was able to find batteries twice :). Hope you find battery too and enjoy it for a long time.
[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] eried1:
I actually did found batteries from a seemingly trustworthy dutch webpage.

Not sure if I have to switch already though. After two days of idle on stock 6.0 the battery level has decreased by 7%, that is 0.35% per hour, quite good. Will improve with a newer ROM.

The best to your device as well!

[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] eried1:
Don't want to open it up and look in case I want to return it. But since the phone was available only throughout 2017, I am assuming early/mid 2017.

The manufactury date of the one I bought seperately is 2018-01-04. It is 2-3 grams lighter than the original. Probably OK. It is an aftermarket product after all.

I actually returned the phone today and didn't have the time to unlock it so can't answer.

370 EUR/USD for a device this old with 4 GB ram, outdated camera, a dim display, depleted battery at arrival and which will likely not receive any more official custom ROMs is simply too much.

Got a brand-new Moto G52 for 200 EUR/USD and will keep my old P2 with LOS 18.1 as backup.

- push crDroid.zip /sdcard within TWRP (but not in the sideload modus)

- same with NikGapps an Magisk

- flash crDroid in TWRP

[Google Pixel 7 Pro] bobo-the-drunk:
I was able to use accessibility settings on my OG Pixel and Pixel 3 to enable a confirmation beep when Google Assistant has been activated (after I say "OK Google") but I can't seem to find a way to do that on my Pixel 7 Pro. Can anyone help?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] lsirg:
You have to enable "switch access" in accessibility settings.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] bobo-the-drunk:
I've done this on my OG Pixel and Pixel 3 but it doesn't seem too be working on my Pixel 7 Pro.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] lsirg:
I've done it twice now, first setup, and again after a factory reset. Worked both times. Strange.

[Google Pixel 7 Pro] lsirg:

[Google Pixel 7 Pro] vielfalter:
Also here it is not working to enable switch access...
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] JakeDHS07:
In Google Assistant settings through the Google app you go to accessibility and the options are there and working for me. Not sure if they've recently moved or been changed but I've never used whatever switch access is.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] bobbarker2:
Can confirm that you have to have both of the settings enabled in the screenshot above in order to hear a beep. I don't even have voice active enabled.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] bobo-the-drunk:
Nobody's ever mentioned that setting before but I already had that enabled. I get a confirmation beep when I'm using Bluetooth or Android Auto but not when it's just my phone.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] TTTTII:
I screwed mine up recently. The above settings were set before, and I've gotten a beep since I got it. Post-screwup, I tried accessibility settings to no avail. Things that were changed beforehand (perhaps - new P7P and I've been both tinkering around and busy - plus I sometimes plug in a DAC and use Neutron Player, which is very possessive. So I can't recall when I noticed the lack of a beep precisely within a day's usage).

So, things that might have affected it:

I allowed Google Assistant to access my screen, and I enabled flash screen when it does so.

I upgraded from the December to January patch.

I upgraded, afterwards, with the small Play Store patch.

I enabled... what's it called - verbal shortcuts like "Answer" that don't require "Hey Google" first. <- Given that Google's reason for zapping the beep was to save response time, I'm suspicious of this, but I've changed quite a bit, so further testing is required.

I'll post if I get the beep back.

***What follows isn't necessary to the topic.***

It's daft that this is even an issue that can't be solved simply with a toggle. Or better, actually asking Assistant to reply when summoned with a beep or phrase, perhaps "Yes, Sir?" In an era with ChatGPT, we ought to be able to at least choose efficient or chummy. Google knows more about me than most friends, they could at least be friendly about it.

[I'm using an unlocked P7P from Google. I'm on Verizon with an eSIM. I have Assistant set so that it's constantly listening. And I've generally got things set to try out everything no matter how intrusive. Hey - it's the first phone I've actively chosen since my Note 4; I wanted to see what we've been given for all that's been taken away. I'm disappointed at all the features that ought to be helpful to my aged father, but are too difficult to use for someone intelligent that can't learn new things well. I'm also seeing just how vastly intrusive it is while saying, carefully, that it isn't. GrapheneOS may be in my future - perhaps because I simply can (goodbye forever, dedicated Verizon phones).]
