[Asus ROG Phone 6 / 6 Pro] tuannghia1985:
I can not found any Official guide for How to convert. Old method worked for Rog 2 is not work anymore on Rog 6.

Found COUNTRY code file and already modified it into WW but fingerprint appeared on phone still remain at CN (with re-flash the whole system package (holos - dallas/texas.raw).

But you can still do following step to gain Device is certified on Play Store and eat FOTA update.

1. Flash WW rom (full rom not OTA), finish all set up.

2. Root your phone, by using Magisk.

(unlock bootloader via official apk from Asus, install Magisk Manager.apk, copy and place original boot.img on your phone and use Magisk Manager on phone to patch it, using CMD and fastboot command on PC to flash boot magisk patched.img, now you have rooted phone with magisk.)

3. With root explorer, navigate to /vendor/factory/COUNTRY open and edit CN to WW.

4. Re-flash WW if you want to make sure if there is any change on your phone. (My vendor fingerprint still not changed into WW).

5. Now you have WW rom on tencent hardware but Play store remain "Device is not certified".

6. Install termux and some modules on Magisk as: MagiskHide Props Config (must have), SElinux permissive (optional), Systemless Hosts, Universal SafetyNet Fix (must have), zygisk - SUI (optional).

7. After reboot your phone, come back to Magisk to make sure MagiskHide Props Config is properly installed. Then open Termux and typing:

su

props

- A short list is appeared on Termux, and you typing 1 to choose option "1 - Edit device fingerprint." then enter

- Choose "f" next to pick option "f - pick a certified fingerprint". then enter

- Choose next "1" to pick up "Asus". then enter

- Choose next "2" to pick up "ROG phone 5" then enter

- Choose next "Yes" to confirm and reboot phone.

Your phone is going to reboot and do a normal clear cache/data with Play Store to force Play Store recognize new status of your phone. Even download and install safetyNet test/check to make sure every thing is green.

Now your phone could eat up FOTA update, not OTA update. But please re-do the patched boot.img with Magisk Manager everytime you do an update by FOTA.

PS: difference between FOTA and OTA is:

FOTA - download update file from Asus HomePage, place it on root of your /SDcard folder, reboot phone and an update notification will show, do an update and it will success.

OTA - download directly via system/system update.

I will add credit later. All that works above is not belong to me.

[OnePlus 9 Pro] romeomalancu:
I've seen that a lot of problems will arise from upgrading to the new Android 13 and most of ppl recommend a factory reset and then reinstall app by app everything to ensure a smooth experience with the new OS. While I don't have problema with this (although I'll be long job), the only app that give me problems is BlueMail app.

Since OnePlus doesn't have an inbuilt mail app in their OS, I've got to this app, which seems to work fine....until reinstall.

I do not know how to recover the emails that are already on my phone. I'd hate to loose the all (it is a work POP3 account) and consist in a year long of emails (since OnePlus 9 Pro launch).

Where are the emails stored on the phone internal storage? So I can do a copy/paste.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] netgar:
I use Blue mail as well and all my emails are stored on Gmail server. I just need to sign up and download all mails again.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] MJPollard:
Honestly, I've never had any luck restoring BlueMail to a new phone (or to the same phone after a fresh wipe) without losing the stored emails and account configurations. The app settings usually remain, but I have to reconfigure the accounts again. I'm somewhat fortunate in that I use BlueMail mostly mainly as a check-my-emails on-the-fly app; the emails still remain on the server, and I use my desktop to bring them into Mozilla Thunderbird (and only then do I delete them), so for me, losing the emails after a restore isn't a big deal. It's a somewhat unusual setup, but it's worked for me for years (I used to use K-9 Mail in the past for the very same thing). Don't know what it is about how BlueMail works that the account settings get lost--you think they'd be retained properly--but that's a mystery for the ages, I guess.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] romeomalancu:
I've been using BleuMail for a while now. It works quite well....only downside is the recovery part that i mentioned. I have my main work email setup on a PC, but lately since im most of the time outside office, i use a lot the email app on the phone.

[General Topics] qwestmogul2012:
@Shimmy99 Would you please offer the procedure you used to make the board boot from SATA SSD?

That would be greatly apprecaited. I have a similar board and I have been interested in installing Android on a SATA SSD but the vendors don't respond to messages and there is very little information on their forum.

Thank you
[General Topics] Shimmy99:
Mmm. I don't have a direct boot from SSD possible yet. Getting it to this stage has required coding work on the provided U-Boot and I would share a source pack to my github but it will take more to get direct SATA boot because it crashes when the U-Boot is compiled with those config options enabled for some reason. My focus mostly was on getting graphical console on the U-Boot so that there is not need to use the serial debug simply to switch OSes 😮). The way it works currently is that the kernels for both Android and Ubuntu are loaded to the eMMC, then the userdata / rootfs are loaded to the SSD. That said, I could try to play with that for sure.
[General Topics] qwestmogul2012:
It would really be nice if there was an easy way to install OS on SSD drive,that would be a massive upgrade from the measly 128GB EMMC.

By the way I don't know if you have already figured this out but there is an easy way to install GAPPS without using the tedious method you used.

You simply patch boot.img with Magisk then use ADB to install it back to the unit. From there you can use Magisk to install Magisk GAPPS.

For the life of me I can't seem to figure out how to install GPS/GNSS drivers for Android. The stock firmwares provided by the vendor have GPS drivers but those stock firmware have 1920x1080 resolution whereas I want to use 3840x2160 screen.

One way of dealing with that is editing build.prop file in vendor folder which works but then the unit won't boot past boot screen when a patched boot.img is installed. so it is sort of catch 22.
[General Topics] Shimmy99:
Thanks. Yes. I am currently working on trying to build up a software system that will enable proper booting from SSD "due to popular demand" from here (basically trying to modify the provided "RK U-Boot" and/or combine it with GRUB), however my progress has been set back after having lost the FIQ serial debug converter for my board and needing to get a new one. Also, I didn't know about that trick with Magisk, thanks! And when you say "won't boot past boot screen", what do you mean? Do you have any logs from the USB or from the FIQ serial stream for when that happens?
[General Topics] qwestmogul2012:
After the patched boot file is loaded back into the unit using ADB,the unit simply shows Firefly logo,the screen goes black then it shows the same logo,it never goes past that logo.

In other words I want a unit that has a patched boot file so that I can root it with Magisk and also have 4K resolution which only attainable by editing the build.prop file.

The root that is already in the stock firmware is inadequate because they lack SU binaries and therefore most apps that require root permission don't work effectively.

I have no way of generating logs,I don't have a serial debugger.

My goal is to have a simple Android system that I can install in my car with 4K portable screens and GPS.

I have tried the Android radios being sold out there and don't meet my needs for a system that can use 4K screens.They are still stuck in 1920x1080 or below resolution,not to mention that they can't play 4K video files without stuttering or freezing. They also lack storage that can store those large files.
[General Topics] Shimmy99:
Wow, that is some really interesting use of this device. Are you able to capture anything via the debug serial interface? (TTL serial, port is called "DEBUG" on the board, it appears to be the preferred serial interface for this processor.) If you don't have a suitable TTL->USB converter, you might want to get one. It must be able to support 1500000 baud, though, so be careful to check. Firefly offers one, though I lost mine as I mentioned and I had to get another, though a different one so I can mount it permanently in the case and break out a back-of-the-case port.

If you can capture anything via the TTL serial line, that would be great. That should give you some idea of what it's choking on. Send me that just so I can think about it while I'm waiting on this.
[General Topics] qwestmogul2012:
I will definitely order one.I never thought I would hit such a roadblock.I have edited various kind of Android roms successfully.This one from Firefly though is something else.I suppose that is what happens when they make their work not open source.

By the way do you know how to unpack super.img? the unpack script provide does not recognize super.img even if I change the name to update.img
[General Topics] Shimmy99:
Sorry for not responding sooner but I was diligently cracking away at this thing VERY much actually ... !!!

Ah yes, I think though I'm pretty close to getting it to work; most of the work so far has been in trying just to figure out how everything works given documentation is scant and I had never, ever worked with Android or anything else at this level before!

Very little of the material is not opensource - some of the tools required to generate the rockchip images does not appear to be and there are some binary-blob kernel drivers, but a LOT more than one thinks is; you just have to ask Firefly for the "board SDK" and they will provide on request. Other than what I mentioned, the code in there is pretty much all licensed under GPL (hence why they have to give you that code, given they've made kernel modifications to support the RK3588 - apparently mainstream support is coming along but is still not primetime yet).

Nonetheless, I see you've unpacked the Android image ROM, so perhaps you already have that - if so, great. Hence let's get to it (note maybe you know some of this already but I also want to make this post useful for as many people as possible): super.img - which I'm actually playing with right now - is not Firefly magic, but is generic Android and has been mentioned before on this forum if you search for "super.img" here. It's a "super partition" that contains partitions.

https://xdaforums.com/t/editing-system-img-inside-super-img-and-flashing-our-modifications.4196625/

To unpack it you need to grab OTA Tools:

https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-ota-tools-lpunpack.4041843/

and the way to do this is you should first use the program simg2img, which actually ships with Ubuntu as a package of the same name I believe. Suppose you're in the Linux terminal and working in the directory containing super.img. Create (if you haven't already) a directory to unpack it, e.g.

mkdir super_unpack

Then use simg2img to get a "raw" version:

simg2img super.img super.img.raw

then finally use the OTATools (replace the string "/path/to/otatools" with whatever, or put them on your PATH, or ...)

/path/to/otatools/lpunpack super.img.raw super_unpack/

and now you should have it fully unrolled into smaller .img files which will ACTUALLY mount. In particular, I needed this because product.img specifically seems to be the best place to load GApps into - they will both come up on first Android boot and they will be retained if you do an Android system reset ("reset to factory defaults").

Now REPACKING super.img ... that's the fun part!
[General Topics] qwestmogul2012:
I had actually managed to find the instructions to unpack the super.img and also managed to mount vendor.img which is where I wanted to make changes in modifying the build.prop file.

After repacking the super.img and flashing it using fastboot the Android did not boot.

I also managed to incorporate the super.img to a ROM but the Android did not boot as well.

My thinking is that Android 12 being a Dynamic partitioned rom does not allow any modification in the root system and that is why I have not had success making the Android boot.

It used to be so easy to do that on Android 10 but Android 11 and 12 are not.

Well,if someone manages to do it,I hope to understand how they did it.

As of now I am pretty much stuck with a vanilla rom which is very disconcerting considering how expensive the ITX-3588J is.

By the way I already have SDK which I have been using to make roms.

Please let me know if you manage to boot the Android using a repacked super.img

As always I am very grateful for your assistance. Happy Ney Year!
[General Topics] Shimmy99:
Thanks. I did not see any mention about build.prop, though maybe you dropped that on another thread that wasn't in my notifications anymore.

You say the "Android did not boot". Do you have a adb dump? Do you have a serial (UART) debug dump (i.e. through the FIQ port)? Also, how are you repacking super.img? It is a tricky process as I mentioned at the end.
[General Topics] qwestmogul2012:
I did mention build.prop editing on my second comment of this thread.I initially tried to use root explorer file manager,that did not work.Then attempted to pull file from the system using ADB,edited it on my computer then pushed the edited file back to the system.That did not work either.

That is when I resorted to trying to edit it by unpacking the super.img.

I am still waiting to receive USB SERIAL debugger.

As for how I unpacked and repacked the super.img I used the instructions on the thread on this link

I was wondering if one of you beautiful coders can point me in the right direction.

So i manged to get it booted running, making phone calls, updating fine. However, I can't connect toany wifi network, it just saves it without attempting to make a connection and mobile data only works when plugged in usb tethering, im assuming thats because it triggers a service and assigns itself an ip address, as soon as i disconnect usb cable it drops data.

So im on a sm-n950f greatlte Exynos

I have a tiny crack on the corner of my screen every other rom ive tried doesnt wake up the screen cause of it, this is the only rom that i can unlock/wake my screen up like normal.

With bootloader unlocked and twrp already installed

i patched Treble project convert dot zip via TWRP 3.7

Then flashed twrp 3.3 Reboot back into TWRP

Flashed no verify (Some reason it won't install on later twrp)

Flashed RevOSLavender's Miui 12GSI Rom (Tried flashing it with 3.7, got boot loop)

Then installed treble's vendor dot zip

Then flashed RevOSLavender again, some reason theres 2 system image partition, sometimes, really depends which twrp i used to flash the convert zip, so i flashed it again because this time it gave the option to flash both partition.

Rebooted into Miui, took about 10mins the first time

Hello All,

Any ideas on how Android (if it matters Pixel 6 Pro/Android 13) determines 'Can't provide internet" on WiFi?

Here's the boggle. I have a number of SmartPlugs. They all require 2.4ghz. I’ve since had to get a new router for my house, old one crapped out. Got a TPLINK AX5400.

Most everything reconnected when I renamed the networks the same (I have a 2.4 Ghz and a 5 Ghz network, let’s just call them 24 and 50.) I keep the SSID the same, WEP type / key the same, etc.

For some reason now, 2 of the smart plugs - power strips - won’t reconnect. To reconnect them, I need to use the app, connect the phone to the 2.4 ghz wifi and then it connects the power strip to the network. Problem is my phone (which is pretty new too) won’t connect to my WiFi - 2.4 ghz at least. “Connected to device, can’t provide internet”.

I disabled pinhole (set my router to use my ISP’s DNS) and. Disabled IPV6 - IPV6 was new to this router. But no idea why the phone won’t connect to 2.4 ghz. Any suggestions on what to check?

I can connect to my 5 ghz wifi - same router, same settings oterwise (different SSID's)

Thanks
