[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhandel:
Here is a [BOUNTY] you will not want to miss out on. First complete set of instructions on how to totally jailbreak the HD8 2020 or HD8 2022 gets a cool $1000 cash once the instructions are completely verified. And another sum of equal or greater value upon full testing.

Here are the details:

The device should have no remnants of the old OS visible to the user. The interface should look as close to stock Android as possible. Setup menu, some file manager application, and a few other applications should be available if necessary. There should be no ability to side load other apps.

I am looking to push one app onto the device, which is being developed. That application is a specialized audio player taking advantage of the very decent audio properties of the HD8 2020 or 2022. The app will take a LOT of the processing power so all radios will be turned off and fixed to be non-functional. USB will work and stay in debug mode for updates and additional data xfers. Graphics will be used at a minimum. Much of the compute power of the device will be tasked with calculations and playing audio. Some of which will be calculated on the fly. Please reply if you have any further questions.

There may be other paid design/programming activities associated with this project.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rortiz2:
I hope this is a joke.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhandel:
What part is unclear? This is not a joke.

The purpose of this request is to limit the functionality of the tablet for safety of the individual using my product. Taxing the processor to do other things will take away from all of the work the processor must do maintaining the functionality of the device plugged into the USB C port that I am designing. It is not yet clear that the device needs to be rooted. At least the GUI menu needs to be closer to Android stock. I really presume that current work is fairly close to what I will need except for the following: Turn off radios permanently, replace the menus with something better than currently offered, and prevent loading other software.

Current setup that I have makes some noise, (popping) on the audio output that is not so good.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rortiz2:
I'm sorry to be the one to burst your bubble of illusion but I'm afraid that if all you want to do requires root, you can start by buying another device (and make sure it's not from Amazon).

Your idea sounds cool, stock Android and forget about FireOS, the usual dream of Amazon Fire users. However, this is not possible in recent generations since Amazon made sure to close all the backdoors that helped us unlock older generation tablets. This includes patching the LK vulnerability (amonet), disabling bootrom mode (with efuses), always updating security patches (Amazon has always been a stickler for this), and among other very extreme security measures.

In short, the devices you are talking about are not unlockable and I really doubt that in the future they will be. My personal recommendation; try to find one of the early Amazon Fire HD10 2019s, which can be temporarily unlocked and have several ROMs based on AOSP (LineageOS, ArrowOS).​
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhandel:
Thank you for the impassioned recommendations. I get that, and now have a better appreciation of the task.

Do you have any recommendations for newer hardware that can fill the bill? This project requires octicore hardware or better because of the need for speed/performance of newer processors to do the heavy lifting. I have had several other Android devices (off brand Chinese attempts at hardware), that are too under powered for the purpose and have too many bugs to be considered.

Here are the basics: I am looking to push one app onto the device, which is being developed. That application is a specialized audio player taking advantage of the very decent audio properties the device. The app will take a LOT of the processing power so all radios will be turned off and fixed to be non-functional. USB will work and stay in debug mode for updates and additional data xfers. Graphics will be used at a minimum. Much of the compute power of the device will be tasked with calculations and playing audio. Some of which will be calculated on the fly.

All of this can be done on an RPi 4 but I am looking to shave costs off of the device. I don't NEED android. It's a means to an end. Development costs are not the issue but ongoing costs adding to product cost are.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarvinGS:
Can we put this information somewhere easy to find for people (like me) searching for ways to "free" the newer generations? I have spent quite some time to find information about rooting possibilities for the 12th generation of Fire 8 HD and not been able to find it. But here, in a Thread certainly not meant fo me, i found them ;)
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhandel:
MarvinGS,

The bottom line is that the prospects are fewer and fewer because of the tightening down of the Android system. And the very custom hardware used in many new devices. It is NOT as trivial as it used to be. And intentionally so. Amazon has a vested interest in keeping things from people like you and I.

I am looking for cheap hardware to make a larger project and will probably go with dedicated hardware to get the features that I need. I was merely looking for the video and some light computing to be done by Android. The devices still don't have enough power to do what I need them to do.

[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] abhibnl:
We received a notification to update to One UI 5/Android 13 with baseband S908WVLU2BVK1. Seeing as we never had any issue with any update, my wife updated the device AND then the problem started.

Problem: Immediately after the update, OneDrive started crashing which was odd. Then my wife complained that she can't see the images in Gallery and she can't download Whatsapp messages. I tried checking storage using X-plore file manager and I can't see any mounted storage. Trying to update apps in google store results in "Not enough space" message.

If I go into the Settings > Storage section, all I see are 0 B everywhere. Calls, and receiving & sending messages in WhatsApp/SMs app works fine too. All apps that needs to store on internal user storage can't do it because its not there.

I am attaching some images if they can be of any help to anyone. If you have any cmds to do over ADB, please do let me know. I have used ADB years ago, and I hope nothing much's changed since then.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
Try clearing system cache.

Try in safe mode.

I hope all your critical data was backed up redundantly on hdds... before this happen.

If worse comes to desperate factory reset.

If that doesn't work you can probably roll it back to the last working version if the bootloader wasn't upgraded too.

Go to the Samsung members forum (Google search it) and see who else has this issue and if they have a fix.

Rule #1 - if an OS is fast, stable and fulfilling its mission, let it be! I'm still running Pie on my stock N10+; current load is over 2.5 yo, last update was 3 years ago. Still fast, stable with minimal maintenance. Security is not an issue.

That's what Android is capable of... or should be.

So there's this gitlabs link I found and simply put the easiest way to get the application you're looking for if it's for a specific phone or if you're trying to get another phone's application you can navigate to this website and the link find the manufacturer you want the model of the phone and then navigate through the folders and under the privileged application and system application folders they have them listed in there and then you can download them and install them if they're compatible and if I'm not mistaken you can actually use lspatch to patch them before compatibility if you're not rooted

[Google Pixel 6a] damian5000:
Have had a couple of bright daylight shots come out like garbage, low detail low quality smudged detail. so just happened to look in settings and no HDR/+. Maybe I'm getting it mixed up with my previous pixels but could have sworn there were HDR settings in Google camera on the 6a?
[Google Pixel 6a] blackhawk:
Strange. Reddit says...😖

Google is even more cryptic.

Raw mode be your next and better option. Those will require post processing which is done using a photo app that has an adjustable contrast curve option.
[Google Pixel 6a] damian5000:
Thanks! Raw wouldn't have helped this shot. looks like needed the stacking that HDR provides. making sure I'm not crazy, the option was there before, no? It's definitely still kicking in in some cases but seems somehow auto / Left up to googles algorithms. Unfortunately that leaves us with a lot of garbage shots
[Google Pixel 6a] blackhawk:
Compared to a Canon pro cam all smartphone cams are a pain to use and limited especially for setup options and speed. I lose a lot of shots because that. I never liked HDR's; a properly exposed shot doesn't need it. Raws give you at least 2 full f-stop exposure and WB correction.

No option to shoot multiple burst exposures at different exposure settings either on smartphones.

Even on my Samsung N10+ the HDR setting when toggled on will decide for you if it will be used. That can and does screw up shots when on... sometimes. No real control😖

Perhaps Google will update that missing feature soon. Rather sloppy of them. Not near as inept as their lame idea implement forced scoped storage though.

That's a bomb🍏🤢🤮 I'm still running Pie and 10 to evade that terror.
[Google Pixel 6a] damian5000:
The issue is these tiny sensors. The photo stacking/ computational photography helps exponentially. When it doesn't kick in, it can be very bad. You're right RAW can definitely help some but there's only so much it can do. Here's two shots, one when the computational kicked in and the other apparently not. These were taken on the fly (my gf and her kid, not random people), so obviously not great composition just an example of what I mean.

[Google Pixel 6a] sampathkumar2811:
Not available for pixel 4a and above. It is default ON.
[Google Pixel 6a] blackhawk:
That's not much difference.

On a raw file (or maybe even a jpeg) you could do that and better using an adjustable contrast curve with settable adjustment points. Takes a bit of practice and a color calibrated monitor.
[Google Pixel 6a] damian5000:
Wow man, the difference is massive. Look again at the detail in all areas. Detail completely smudged out in the faces, the animal, the plants.
[Google Pixel 6a] blackhawk:
Yeah just saw that. Not sure what the cause is though. The face is messed up. I suspect it's the jpeg processing algorithm.
[Google Pixel 6a] damian5000:
It's also the animal, the plant life to the right can be seen easily. This is what I'm talking about in regards to the photo stacking, what enables these tiny sensors to get decent IQ.

But also, looking at the exif, the bad shot is at 1/7200 ISO 700, that's insanely dim for these little sensors, I'm assuming the digitally brightened. I'm GUESSING I may have been moving (or they were moving) and Google algorithm decides to snap a "sport" shot rather than have something completely unusable? In the case, if so, also no time for stacking in a "sport" shot. Just a guess.

The other 1/400 ISO 45, though I'm not sure how they calculate the latter with stacking/HDR. Whether it's an average of all shots or what.
[Google Pixel 6a] blackhawk:
The cam sensor temperature can also increase the noise floor level. With the lense and sensor size as small as they are it's a wonder they can do this good. The narrow depth of focus doesn't help things either.

Cam shake may also play a role as well; the lighter the cam the less stable the shooting platform. Smartphones have no handholds. Not near as easy to shoot with compared to a pro cam and lense that weighs 5 pounds. The larger lens are easier to shoot because of the added weight.

Smartphone cams are convenient but damn I lose a lot of keepers because of them in shutter lag alone.

Whatever the images I'm uploading on to my galaxy watch 4 not showing up in my watch.

I tried EasyFireTool, BugJaeger, AnExplorer(File manager TV USB OTG) and nothing working for me. All I can see is that all the images having 0size like I showed in attachments. And I'm seeing them as unreadable empty images in album app.

I was messing with permissions of files in BugJaeger, at one point I'm able to edit execute permission of one file placed in download folder with BugJaeger and that image showed up in watch..I deleted it. So I'm trying to edit permissions of files but not working now.

Anyone faced this strange issue? can someone help me.

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] neelchauhan:
Disclaimer: I am responsible for LineageOS on the Pixel 6 and 7 series.

The way Pixels are designed, they can't boot a recovery image with "fastboot boot". In turn, you can't get TWRP, unlike say a OnePlus or Samsung where TWRP is still viable. IMHO still beats OnePlus 10's locked-behind-credentials MSM tools tho.

While I'd love to have TWRP on Pixels, it's simply not an option anymore. Hence why Lineage Recovery is the only option for LOS on Pixel devices, and other Pixel ROMs are flashed via fastboot versus recovery.

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Josh.haveman1:
Pixels are just stock Android Galaxy phones at this point. Sick of it.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] w_tapper:
how exactly does that make them bad?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Josh.haveman1:
Galaxy phones have extremely mid tier hardware, overheat all the time, are difficult to modify, yet cost as much as, or sometimes more than iPhones. Phones with curved glass are also counterintuitive because it simply causes annoying glare and seriously weakens the screen. My 6 Pro is the first phone I've ever cracked, and it only fell out of my pocket. Gorilla Glass Victus is supposed to be really strong, but the curve of the screen completely nullifies this. I'm not the kind of guy to use cases, and this has never caused me a problem with a phone with a flat display. Apple openly talks about why they don't use curved screens, and very few people were excited about the curve on the 6 Pro. I do not understand why they kept it on the 7 Pro. It shows the blatant lack of skill in their engineering teams.

I expected tensor to be custom. Not to just be an off brand snapdragon. Tensor is as stupid as exynos. They should have built a new architecture from the ground up instead of using mediocre off the shelf parts.

Stock android isn't lightweight anymore, it comes with a ton of bloat.

I'm just tired of Android. They keep adding new problems instead of fixing the ones they already have. It's completely senseless. Android has so much potential but Google has absolutely NO IDEA what to do with it. They cannot hire skilled engineers, because the skilled engineers do not support Google's mission. It's only the mediocre people who do.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] w_tapper:
you are greatly underestimating how hard it is to make a whole custom chip, and if tensor was truly custom I doubt whether roms would exist for it and in my opinion I would much rather have tensor be based on exynos than be a bad attempt at a custom chip

for Android being bloated you could just use degoogled lineageos or grapheneos
