I am currently installing firmware and am going to flash the rom
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 / S7 Plus Questions & Answer] jsm36:
I want to sell my SM-T970 device and make it as much as possible to delivery status.

What should I do? Is there a guide or can anybody tell me the best way to do it?

Uninstall Magisk? Make a Factory reset? Flash the latest Firmware with Odin?

Will there be any marks left from root?

I know there is a hardware-fuse that will forever be broken when the bootloader is unlocked, but will my device always show the warning when tuning it on?

Thank you in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 / S7 Plus Questions & Answer] Village_Idiot:
The person who buys it will not be able to use anything linked to Knox. Even if you restore it to a factory ROM and relock the boot loader, the Knox "e-fuse" is still tripped. Make sure you tell any prospective buyer that it was rooted.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 / S7 Plus Questions & Answer] jsm36:
Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 / S7 Plus Questions & Answer] jsm36:
Sooo, its done now and I am sure my method was not perfect, but this is how it worked:

1. Make a factory reset, found in the options menue.

2. Download the latest Firmware with Frija

3. Turn off device, plug it in to the PC while holding volume up + volume down to get into download mode

4. Open Odin and flash the BL, AP and CSC Files with the ones inside the Zip-File downloaded with Frija.

5. Restart device while holding volume up + volume down to get in download mode again.

6. Relock the Bootloader (follow the instructions displayed on the device)

7. Done
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 / S7 Plus Questions & Answer] daitalos:
Of course, you can factory reset the device(by flashing the stock rom via odin) but the knox can't be reset anymore, and the buyer can see it immediately very easy after reboot in recovery mode ..

knox warranty void : 0×1

I live in India. I have a HK Variant of the Samsung Galaxy S22 (9010).

Airtel just launched its 5G in 8 cities. I checked NetMonster, and the tower near me is 5G enabled.

However, it appears for 5G to work on Samsung phones, an OTA update is required.

Since I don't have an Indian variant, I won't receive this Airtel specific OTA (which appears to have been pushed for Indian Galaxy S22s).

Apart from changing my CSC thru Chimera Tool etc, is there anything I can do? Please help.
[Samsung Galaxy S22] dartballs:
You could contact your service provider
[Samsung Galaxy S22] syedtahir16:
I too have the same variant. Samsung Galaxy S22 (9010) -- Taiwan BRI version.

Same issue.

Maybe once the Android 13 stable is rolled out to our devices, it may work then.
[Samsung Galaxy S22] akshayshankar1:
I wonder if there are enough number of us out there for Airtel & Samsung to consider fixing this issue.

Requiring an OTA to just connect to a band seems too much of a hoop to jump to, especially if people are visiting from overseas and have compatible bands. I'm hoping you're correct about the stable Android 13 update, let's see how they approach this.
[Samsung Galaxy S22] Vorion:
I have heard S22 series doesn't need an OTA 5G update to work with 5G network. It's enabled already. The OTA is only for the mid range and previous gen S series. Due to some 5G bands and implementation. There are some people with S22 series device in Chennai receiving 5G signal without any issues.

[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 12320397:
So I've read that regular LineageOS updates work with "dirty flashes" but the bigger updates (between majoe Android versions) require "clean flash".

Is it possible to somehow save all the system and application settings and data between the big upgrades requiring clean flash?

Thanks and sincerely
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Boot into TWRP, select the Backup option, then select "advanced", select the data partition but do not select any other partition, swipe the slider to start the backup. When the backup finished, move the backup file to external sdcard or PC if you don't have external sdcard.

When you flash your ROM(do not store your ROM and gapps in your internal storage, store it on external, if you, don't have external, store it in your internal but don't wipe your internal when you do your wipes), wipe system, data, cache and dalvik cache then flash your ROM. After the ROM finishes, while still in TWRP, you can either go ahead and restore the data backup that you created or you can reboot into system to let the ROM do its initial load then immediately power off, reboot into TWRP, select Restore, then restore the backup of your data partition and reboot the device. I would let the ROM boot then go back to TWRP and then restore the data.
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 12320397:
Thank you sir!

Is there any downside of restoring from backup instead if setting up everything manually?

Are there any downsides of choosing one if the two options proposed by you over the other?

Sincerely
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
1) no downside, it restores all settings, apps and app data to exactly what you had before flashing the update.

2) no downsides, it is just that letting the ROM boot first then going back and restoring the backup reduces chances of things being buggy after the update.

I recommend that you boot into TWRP, select Backup and make a full backup of everything except for internal storage. Then, when you flash your ROM then let it boot then go back to TWRP, select Restore, then select "advanced restore" then select only the data partition and none of the others(this will restore only the data partition from the backup and not the others), then swipe the slider to start the restore process then reboot the device.

The reason I say to create a full backup of everything is so that you have a working backup to restore if something goes wrong with the update process. It gives you a restore point to go back to so you can troubleshoot what went wrong then try again. And if everything goes right with the update, you won't need to restore the whole backup, you can just do the advanced restore and restore only the data partition and then you should be where you want to be.

I don't know if this will backup and restore your SMS/MMS text messages, you may need to backup/restore those via one of the SMS backup and restore apps in the PlayStore, there are several that can do this.
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 12320397:
Thank you again.

Does this backup work for migration between any custom ROMs let's say from LineageOS to PixelExperience or only between versions of the same ROM like from Lineage 18 to 19?

Is it possible to migrate the same set of settings and data from stock ROM with locked bootloader to a custom ROM?

Sincerely

[Google Pixel 6a] hydrocynus:
Hello,

I am not able to transfer my apps, sms, photos etc. from my old samsung S9 to my new pixel 6a using a usb C to usb C connection. I removed Smart Switch from my old Samunsung as this was the app that was starting automatically. With the Smart Switch app, I was getting into an endless loop where I was being asked which app to use.

Note: my data are encrypted on my samsung phone. Is it the problem? When I first got the phone, I was able to transfer my S9 to the Pixel 6a with no issues. I have the screen flickering and greenish display issue on my S9 and did a back up and restored the backup to the phone hoping it would solve my issue. All went fine but when I restored the backup, I was offered the option of encrypting the data on the S9... so, now, when I start my S9, I have to enter my passcode to decrypt the data and use the S9 phone. That is the only thing that has changed as my S9 was restored to what the backup I chose.

Thanks!
[Google Pixel 6a] Sentimental Sugarcube:
Have you found a solution to your issue yet?

And I hope you don't mind me asking, but how do you like the Google Pixel 6a over your Samsung Galaxy S9? I'm switching to a P6a from an S9+ too, and I'm really excited about it! (I'm sorry this isn't related to your post.)
[Google Pixel 6a] jimbomodder:
I switched from galaxy note 9 to the 6a yesterday and my note was not encrypted and was rooted but stock rooted, I simply connected the pixels charger cable to both phones and off it went without any issues. I already don't miss the curved display and to be honest this could be the 1st phone in years I don't root. I've only had it a day ( as of 26/11/22) but so far everything seems good apart from fingerprint scanner, does seem to struggle a bit especially with thumbs.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] sydios:
Hi,

I have a strange problem. I can't update my phone. It shows me a popup every other day that I am 90+ days behind the latest security update, but then I click on update now, and nothing happens. It then shows me a notification "Couldn't install update / Tap to learn more" when I do that, nothing happens.

I downloaded the Oxygen Updater app and downloaded the update, but when I try to go into the manual update, that also doesn't work. It shows up to date, and when I click on it, nothing happens. I took some screenshots. I already restarted it several times, but that also didn't work. The device is rooted I have Magisk 38ab6858 (25203)

Any ideas on how to fix that?

Thanks!
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] DrDominate:
Since you are rooted you have to do full updates. Can't do incremental ones. Go to the settings in oxygen updater to switch from incremental to full. If I'm not mistaken, there should be instructions in that app how to do the local upgrade, but there should be an option in the system update menu to do the local upgrade.

Worst case, it sits a few security patches behind. Not a huge deal, but annoying.

Hope this helps.

Also, if you are able to update this way, don't forget to go to the magisk app to flash after the ota BEFORE you reboot, but AFTER the update installs.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] sydios:
Thanks but I can't even open the update menu. When I check the disabled apps the "Software update" app is there disabled and no matter what I do I can't get it enabled. I tried to delete the cache and files but still. Any other idea?
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] DrDominate:
I don't have any work arounds for that sort of scenario. A factory reset would fix it, or perhaps sideloading the update file? I haven't messed around too much on stock so I'm not sure if that would be an option.
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] Nimueh:
Doesn't OOS 12 require this special updater app? At least that's what's been shared on the Telegram group and it seems to work - I'm still on OOS 11 so I can't test or confirm.

That's the text that comes with the apk: "OnePlus removed the local update option in System Update in OOS12. They later released this APK to restore the functionality"

Can't hurt to try I guess?
[OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers] xtcislove:
You need to activate developer options

After this there is the local update option available under the "up to date" menu if you press the settings or tree dots in the upper right corner.

I cant be more exact because i dont own a op8pro anymore.

I called Verizon and they told me i might have to activate USB tethering. I activated my new sim card and Verizon sees on there side that my device is connected to there server. My status light is solid green and the data light on my device is green. I open my Firefox browser and typed http://my.USB and firefox says no internet connection.
