Hi, i am trying to install a system.img to the system partition using fastboot using

fastboot flash system C:\Users\user\Desktop\system.img

but when i run the command i get this error:

Sending sparse 'system' 1/7 (460796 KB) OKAY [ 13.966s]
Writing 'system' FAILED (remote: 'sparse flash write failure')
fastboot: error: Command failed

i don't know if this is related to this other issue https://xdaforums.com/t/cant-flash-system-img-in-twrp-e-cannot-flash-images-to-file-systems.4535981/

but i can't flash system images neither from recovery nor from fastboot (i have tried also other images).

it doesn't seem to be a memory issue because i have also used the -S option to split the image and it still doesn't work.

Help
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaon121$:
Don't put your img file on desktop screen.Move the img file on the C drive and flash again with the right command.Hope it will be solved.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slx23:
It still doesn't work as administrator and with the image in the C drive root.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaon121$:
Change your img file and try again..or download again... What is your phone model?

[Google Pixel 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Artemis008:
NOTE: Previously I warned that changing IMEI is an action that is prohibited in some countries, and it is a crime if it is not your device. USE IT AT OWN RISK!!!

before getting to the point I will explain how I got into trouble like this, at first I bought this pixel 4 under normal conditions, everything worked as it should, until when I realized something in the morning that my signal was lost, the ISP was read but could not be used to receive and send SMS as well as make calls, strangely when I changed to The other ISP is still working.

then I searched for info on the internet and I assumed that my Pixel 4 was imei blocked by one of the ISPs, not all of them. I have tried many ways to solve this problem but the results have never worked, until I found an idea what if I replaced my IMEI with the IMEI of my old device that was not blocked, and it worked.

First

Remove sim card

, download all the tools needed then follow my guide step by step if you want to succeed, let's go

{Mod edit. Oswald Boelcke}

I have tried this method and it works without any problems, you need to remember that

IMEI will be blocked again

if you do a

factory reset.

If you don't understand or have something to add to this method, feel free to ask, I'd be very happy if I could help, let's discuss
[Google Pixel 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] arfarfdan:
I've always found these Qualcomm IMEI fixes to be really hard to stabilize, but thank you very much for posting this. I haven't ever tried QCN method before, so this should be interesting!
[Google Pixel 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Artemis008:
thank you, I just hope this helps you and someone else with their problem, and not to be abused.
[Google Pixel 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kingnathi:
I have a Samsung galaxy A13 which is IMEI locked can this method also work?
[Google Pixel 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Artemis008:
just try it, but remember to use it at your own risk, I recommend using a tool like the unlocked tool for Samsung, because the processor used by Samsung A13 is an exynos processor, while this method is for Pixel 4 which uses a Snapdragon processor, as long as it uses Snapdragon and can enter diag mode, I think all phones can use this method, but I doubt this method will work if using an exynos processor
[Google Pixel 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Agus8k:
qcn editor does not modify the value of imei 1, only imei 2. any suggestions?
[Google Pixel 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Artemis008:

[Google Pixel 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] kullanici32:
is this procedure valid in pixel 5? Are the codes like efs reset the same?
[Google Pixel 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] chumchumx9:
Hi, how do I get the correct IMEI for Pixel 4? Do I just need to change 1 or 2 number randomly?
[Google Pixel 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Oswald Boelcke:
Hello and good afternoon, @Artemis008

It's indeed the case what you've stated in the note at the top of your OP: Edit or change of IMEI is illegal in quite a few of countries. For this reason, I've closed your thread and removed your instruction! XDA doesn't allow and doesn't accept discussions about or support for such an edit or change.

In future, please refrain from posting such threads or to provide such support on XDA!

Hello,

I want to connect to my phone with adb to create a symlink beetween the internal storage and the sd card.

I use "adb connect IP" but the phone refuses the connexion.

I have tried on Windows 11 and mAid.

I don't know why my phone refuses connexion.

Help would be appreciated :)

Thanks
[Redmi Note 10] devcon69:
try adb tcpip 5555 first then adb connect your ip address
[Redmi Note 10] favancini:
Hello devcon69,

Thank you for your interest.

I have done what you said but it does not work : the phone still refuses the connexion

Hello,

What sould I install on the pc to make it work?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] beren:
hi, i was wondering if already exist a software that allow to turn off the mobile alarm just speaking to the phone, saying a word previously learned..

i.e. "ok" or "shutup!!" or "f*c*o*f" :D or clapping hands...

is there any software has the option to do this?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] NRGZ28:
I think the software might have a tough time listening to your voice, WHILE the alarm is going off... don't you think ? :rolleyes::D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] egzthunder1:
I was thinking along the lines of STFU :D

but NRGZ28 is right. It might be a little difficult to isolate your voice from the alarm. Even M$ Voice Command, which in my opinion is one of the best voice recognition softwares for PPC had a really hard time understanding me when I was either outside, driving in my car, or around any type of outside sound...

Maybe with the right filters, who knows? ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nir36:
I would LOVE such an application...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RedRamage:
Rather than trying to filter out the problem, I'd try for an "on off" solution. The programs listens when the alarm isn't sounding. The alarms beeps for like 2 seconds, then pauses to listen for 2 seconds, then beeps for two seconds, then pauses to listen for 2 seconds. It'd go like:

BEEP - BEEP - BEEP - BEEP [---------pause-------] BEEP - BEEP - BEEP - BEEP, etc.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nir36:
good idea. that would work.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sercio:
Lol i already imagine how my ppc rings every morning and i keep crying " shut the dam **** up" XD

You know those guys who trows their alarm clock onto the wall? My voice would do same^^

Please!!! Any good coder built something like this!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] beren:
RedRamage had a good idea...but...

when i call using the speakerphone my friend doesn't hear his own voice..so i think it would be possible to make the ppc not to hear the alarm ring or the music it is playing

btw...i think there's not any software cas do this already, right?:confused:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] andrew-in-woking:
Great idea

This is a great idea for an app. It would be a bad idea for me because I would just shout and then go back to sleep! Maybe someone knows how echo cancellation works in Skype for WinMo.

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 13, which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.

LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

All the source code for LineageOS is available in the LineageOS Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to LineageOS, please visit out Gerrit Code Review. You can also view the Changelog for a full list of changes & features.

Reporting Bugs

DO NOT Report bugs if you're running a custom kernel or you installed Xposed

Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)

If it is a random reboot, grab /sys/fs/pstore/console-ramoops and /sys/fs/pstore/dmesg-ramoops-0. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)

If the problem disappears after running "setenforce 0" from a root shell, grab /data/misc/audit/audit.log

Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. Please also do not report known issues. Any bug not reported in the bug report format below may be ignored.

What is your--
LineageOS version:
LineageOS Download url:
Gapps version:

Did you--
wipe:
restore with titanium backup:
reboot after having the issue:

Are you using--
a task killer:
a non-stock kernel:
other modifications:

Provide any additional information (observations/frequency of problem/last version it worked on/etc) as needed:

Not sure to understand how to upgrade from lineage os 19:

reading here https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/fajita/upgrade

I understand I have to revert to stock firmware before upgrading.

Doing this I lose all data isn't it?

Thanks!
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] EdwinMoq:
It doesn't tell you to go back to stock, just that you need Android 11 firmware, which you likely already have if you're on 19.1.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] dav01it:
My 19.1 says it's Android 12..

I'm confused, pls explain!

Firmware is not the same as the ROM.

Like I said, you're probably already on Android 11 firmware, so you can go ahead and upgrade.

Smooth update from LineageOS 19. Good performance and no problems encountered so far. Thanks for the great efforts of maintaining the software update to the Oneplus 6t device. Much appreciated.

Smooth update here from Lineage-19.1 (MindTheGapps + TWRP + Magisk) to Lineage-20 (MindTheGapps + TWRP + Magisk) using TWRP_3.7.0_12.

Thanks to the devs !
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] yoruuba2:
Is TWRP_3.7.0_12 fully functional with decryption and such?

Are you using the official release or a another modded fork? Care to share the link?

I just upgraded to LOS 20, but would like to go back using TWRP again.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] dwardo:
Using siddk's specific version with A12 base (hence the _12 in the version name) and decryption was fully functional in LineageOS 19.1 and is also in LineageOS 20 (I upgraded using install from internal storage i.e. without using adb sideload)
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] g90814:
Awesome to see this. I recently upgraded to Pixel 6A but kept my OP 6T as a backup phone. Nice to have it relatively up to date still! Update very easy using adb sideload per instructions.

[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Tkain:
Congrats on the quick release! Haven't had a single issue since installing LineageOS 20; everything just works. Haven't had issue with MindtheGApps or Magisk either (although I know the latter is out-of-scope). Thank you again for providing a consistently stable and updated ROM.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] yoruuba2:
Smooth update here as well to LOS 20+MTGapps+Magisk.

The only issue that I've experienced so far is the Music app force closing.

I had the same issue on LOS 19.1. I'm thinking it's not a ROM issue but rather something on my side causing it.

I'm running Viper4Android repackaged and I think that's causing the force close.

Great experience so far. Thanks to the devs/maintainers🍻

I'm using Lineage 19.1 with nikgapps, I guess the instructions work the same to upgrade to 20, right?

[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] mahashakti89:
Upgrade to Lineageos 20 was smooth indeed. Some struggle to get Magisk working. But now everythings works, it seems to be far better with the battery. In the last releases of Lineageos 19 the screen won't go black after two minutes like it should have >> Battery drain.

Now it works again.

[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] rikasu:
Upgrade from newest 19.1 to 20 went smooth. Just the LOS20 pack + MindTheGapps.

Already loving a few new features, like the new player, or being able to edit recently copied text. Especially when copying link by share-button.

One minor downside I noticed however was when using the keyboard: The buttons to hide keyboard and choosing input method have been swapped. The hide-button was on the right side, and input method on left, now they're swapped. Is there a method to swap them again?

Another thing I've noticed is, when unlocking the phone with fingerprint. There was a vibration first when placing the finger on the scanner, then a vibration when it proceeds (unlock or error). Now it only vibrates when proceeding. Was it on purpose? I don't mind it, but don't know if it's a bug.

Last but not least: Thank you for the big support for 6T! Like the phone quite a lot, and it's great to see it being supported still!

If you open the updater, you'll see an information-button instead of download/install, which tells you that it won't install with the local updater. You also need your gapps-package for Android 13.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] tesseractxda:
Awesome work! Successfully upgraded to LOS20 from 19.1.

Is it possible to enable digital wellbeing app for LOS20 + MindtheGapps?

Currently, it says "This app isn't compatible with your device anymore".

I already tried APK as well. Not sure if there's anything I can sideload just for this.

- reboot to TWRP

- in TWRP -> wipe -> factory reset

- reboot to TWRP -> wipe -> format data -> yes

- reboot to TWRP

- install OOS + LOS-20 ROM + MindTheGapps-13.0.0-arm64+ TWRP 3.6.2_12-2.zip

- reboot to TWRP -> wipe -> format data -> yes

- reboot to system

Can someone confirm or correct if this is correct?

Thank you!
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] yoruuba2:
Are they critical security issues? I'm sure they will be pulled for the next nightly.

At the end of the day from understanding, the maintainers are volunteering their time. When other real life issues come up, they take precedence over other things.

There are 2 other ROMs that have the updated patches if you need it asap.

Any update on the SMS issues on Verizon? I basically haven't had working texting for weeks.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] thatsnotaclevername:
Same here. I finally found a workaround of just installing Messages By Google and using that as my default texting app. It has an "Enable Chat Features" setting that connects to Verizon over wifi and my SMS has been working flawlessly after I enabled it and rebooted my phone.

I'm not happy about using a Google app (and to be honest, I don't know if it works when not on wifi) but it's something. I'm still hoping for a full fix so I can uninstall Google Messages but I'd rather have working SMS with Google than nothing at all. I hope it works for you too!
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] EdwinMoq:
Try this:

adb root
adb remount
adb shell "sed -i '/persist.vendor.radio.apm_sim_not_pwdn/a persist.vendor.radio.mt_sms_ack=30' /vendor/build.prop"
adb reboot

And let me know if it makes a difference.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] thatsnotaclevername:
Just tried those steps and I received a couple of the sms messages I'd missed, so that's encouraging. I'll want to give it a day or so to ensure it's a full fix though. My workaround of using Messages By Google stopped working so I wonder if that workaround actually only worked immediately after a reboot.

I'll let you know if it's still working tomorrow. Thanks!

Hi

Last week I remarked following in the changelog of Oneplus 6t :

fixup! Keyguard: Add option to scramble pin layout when unlocking

but I can't find the option in Settings .

Any idea ?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] hachigoro:
Hello, apologies if this has been reported already. Since last week's update (3/23), I often see some text under the fingerprint scanner in the lock screen, which should not be there. I took 2 screenshots, one that says that it is charging, even hours after I had unplugged my phone.

The other appears more frequently saying "Unlock for all features and data", which I think should only appear when you just boot the phone, but not after that.

What is your--

LineageOS version: 20

LineageOS Download url: Updated through the Updater.

Gapps version: MindTheGapps

[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Tomek_P:
This happened to me. I thought it may have been because I’d installed the new Magisk release the night before via the app. I sideloaded Magisk and then it booted.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Prof. Yaffle:
I did wonder if it was related to Magisk. I just let the recovery do it's thing. On the third failed reboot it reverted to the previous partition
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Lvsitano:
I updated normally, and I do have Magisk. The only thing I have noticed is that the updater progress bar always showed 15%, but you could see the progress going on. Just a cosmetic glitch. Other than that the update applied smoothly.

Just use latest nightly, works fine. At this stage, LOS 20 is not unstable and should have minimal bugs, not affecting much of your daily experience.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Prof. Yaffle:
It was definitely Magisk related. I saw a commit earlier in the week related to surviving ota updates. I've just installed the 26.1 update and the last LOS update installs fine now
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Lvsitano:
Does Magisk 26.1 still allows the zip sideload method using LOS recovery? In the changelog the mention that it does not work, and there people complaining about bootloop after applying Magisk 26 through recovery.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Lvsitano:
Well, got no reply, decided to try myself. What I have learned: if you apply Magisk via sideload using LOS's recovery it seems to install just fine, but when you open Magisk Manager it will warn you that you need an extra step to complete. If you patch the boot.img no such message is displayed.
