Dis is nice. How bout RROS?
[Honor 9  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] electronic_dream:
Btw have a question about device. I have bootloader unlocked years ago now, i had code but lost in a virus attack. Found that potato method that worked for honor 8. My question is if i flash those service firmwares to oreo or pie bootloader will relock? In 8 it did. Is there any way to flash oreo and pie roms without having to flash firmwares? If the only way is test point to get unlock code i'll do that when battery will die or smth like that.
[Honor 9  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] electronic_dream:
And another. I've seen out there harmonyos firmware. That's only chinese? And after flashing that is possible go android again and have twrp etc.?
[Honor 9  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] legendmark08:
Hi, if you are worried about bootloader relock you don't have to. You can use PotatoNV to unlock bootloader on honor 9 due to kirin 960 and it will not relock in any case. Another thing is about harmony is. Yes its only for Chinese ROM in my case STF-L00 with HarmonyOs there is also new kernel that comes with harmony that you can't boot any gsi I tried more than 10 times but failed to boot any rom with harmony kernel although you can downgrade the system from harmony os to emui 9.1 the version will not be displayed as 9.1 it would be displayed as what it was before downgrade in my case it was 2.0( harmonyos 2.0). Of I try to flash the emui 9.1 kernel it will not boot but when you flash emui 9.1 system only it will boot and revert the kernel itself.
[Honor 9  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] electronic_dream:
I have unlocked bootloader from many years now, with official code. Now i lost that code. My fear was if i eventually go to emui 9 bootloader could relock. If thats the case, what is the correct testpoint for potatonv?

Hi @AltairFR

is this rom still supported for Honor 9 STF?

Thx
[Honor 9  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] AltairFR:
Yes, i have a STF
[Honor 9  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] Saftpresse99:
Thank you @AltairFR

at the moment i'm using phhusson latest version with gapps. Before i flash you rom, i have a some questions:

- Is the navigation bar disabled and capacitive buttons working?

- Is fingerprint working?

With phhusson treble rom i had some problems. Perhaps they are fixed?

- ADB stopped working after some time. Restart enabled it again (https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/issues/2396)

- SD Card not working. Formating the card causes a reboot. (https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/issues/1638)

- Can't play videos in mobile chrome browser and every app which uses the chromium webview. Firefox works. (https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/issues/1640)

Thanks again

I have installed latest version of Android Studio as well as all the necessary plugins such as Dart and Flutter. When I run an application and hit the Flutter Inspector tab on the right side of the screen, the Flutter Inspector window pops up with a message saying "The JxBrowser license could not be found".

Is there anything I missed about the JxBrowser or something?

As you can see, I accidentally erased all the partitions. I meant to just clear boot_a.

I tried recovering through these steps:

Download (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1WQaaM35SWiF_UbXAM8hiRB95D2CDkIEq) the backup. Unzip it to find 7 luns (0-6).

1. Open QFIL

2. Select Flat Build

3. Click load xml and select the rawprogram(#) XML that is in the lun(0-6) folder.

4. If it asks you for a patch xml, click cancel. It's not needed to flash this backup.

5. Click download

6. Repeat steps for each lun folder

I kept getting this failure message in qfil:

View attachment 5786723

I'm not sure if these are even the steps to fix it. Any Idea on what I need to do to resolve this?
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] AsItLies:
Yes the best thing, or easiest rather, would be to determine which partitions are needed to get lgup to work, then flash a kdz with it.

Don't remember exactly which partitions are needed, google search for that. But flash those, from that backup, one by one, think there's only like 6 partitions needed.

That's the thing about qfil, if yer not sure what yer doing, don't do it ;)
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] nasedase:
The problem with the backup is that I wasn't able to get them to work through QFIL. Is there another method of flashing those partitions?
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] AsItLies:
one by one. I've done it, it's time consuming, but it can be done. And be sure to pay attention so you don't flash the wrong one to the wrong partition. If you get a message about 'data overflow', immediately cancel, that means you are trying to flash to a partition too small for the image, and you'll overwrite the partition next to it, and probably end up with a brick.

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranjib:
After a long time today I decided to upgrade my TP16 to Evervolv 7.1.2 last version with gapps 7.1 arm pico (opengapps).

Installation worked as expected, but login with my google account was impossible.

Research guided my to a solution for the "uncertified Android problem".

I did a

adb shell 'sqlite3 /data/data/com.google.android.gsf/databases/gservices.db "select * from main where name = \"android_id\";"'

I got that desired number and then I could log into my google account so far. But then the operation stopped at the point, where to accept the google rules and my TP rebooted.

I do not know why this happened, because there is a suitable number?!..

After reboot the playstore let me in, my account was accepted.

Description and solution for this problem from here and (in German) here.

Meanwhile I inserted the number with a leading "0" into the google registration. Don't know if anything changed...

I don't want to cast things by accident. Actually, I was never in a situation where I wanted to cast anything.

I am have a Samsung s20 with android 13.

I tried Google Home app and the settings -> google, didn't help.

I looked for something I can uninstall with lucky patcher using the keywords "cast", "mirror", didn't find anything.

Also looked for modules in LSposed, didn't find anything.
[General Questions and Answers] shmish:
Not sure why, but it is gone now. I guess I just needed to restart or something.

Nope, it's back

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite Questions & Answers] bobfrantic:
I have a S6 lite 2022 LTE version SM-P619. It's rooted and works great but I tried to change to boot screen qmg and shut down qmg's with ones that have a bit more animation. They work once but next reboot or shut down the original boring qmg's are back and the ones I inserted into the media folder have gone poof. Start up ones are that important but my shutdown one is of a tv shutting down that look really nice on the tablet. once...

edit: after doing a few things on this tablen I begin to wonder, is there some sort of security on the root partion? When I delete a file from the system/app it comes back after rebooting. When I rename that file, it comes back to original after rebooting.

Most puzzled... never seen this happen before.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite Questions & Answers] bobfrantic:
*Bump* because I would really like to know how to really delete an app without it returning after a reboot. Rooted and using Root Explorer. I go to Root/system/app and delete a file such as DailyBoard. When I reboot the tablet it is back in the app folder like it was never deleted. As well, the issue of overwriting the shutdown.qmg is same, reboot and original is back. Am I only one with this or is anyone else seeing this?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite Questions & Answers] bobfrantic:
Okay, I finally found out why this happens. Samsung has made all dynamic partitions (odm, product, system, vendor) READ ONLY! So even if you are rooted, you won't be able to debloat or change files on anything in the tablet (S6 Lite LTE 2022 P619)

So after searching around for an answer, I stumble upon a solution that worked for me. But you have to be able re-build the AP-P619XXXXX.tar file. Reason is that you will have a new super.img that is Read Write and allows you to delete files and push files to your tablet without the changes being undone. And rebuilding the ap-tar file is because the tablet doesn't have a working fastboot in it.

Go to: https://xdaforums.com/t/magisk-twrp...system-partitions-to-read-write-mode.4521131/ and follow all instructions carefully. You DO need to be rooted and do need Magisk install to be able to use this method. Good Luck
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] peeweew:
Device is SM-998B/DS

Instead of waiting for the contract to end. Is rooting an option? I am aware of the idea of rooting since I've done it on my past devices.

Although, this'll be my first time on Samsung since 2009 (Galaxy 5).

Is this doable, while the device is Knox protected?

Thanks in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] sknifer:
I would very much like to know if this can be done. I have the same concern. My S21 Ultra 5G is locked to a carrier and yes SIM2 data is also locked. I hope someone can shed light on this. I am ok if it can't be set to openline so long as it can be rooted. TIA

[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] wilderja:
This is the first time that my Pixel 5 refuses to see an update. Even when I tell it to check for an update, it says I am current with the november update, and this is now December 16. Anyone have any idea why? What can I do to fix this?
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] swangjang:
That's a weird issue. Maybe you could try to update manually through the official factory images site?

If you use the 'flash-all.bat', make sure to right-click -> edit the 'flash-all.bat' file and remove the '-w' from the last command line and save the file. The '-w' will wipe your phone.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] ulxerker:
Just update manually via OTA image, its easy and without the risk of data loss.

I do that almost every month.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] swangjang:
Yeah, do this.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] wilderja:
Easy instructions on doing a manual OTA image?
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] swangjang:
The instructions are written here: https://developers.google.com/android/ota

It should be fairly straight forward to follow, although it does kinda assume you know some basics.

To help get you started:

Download the SDK Platform Tools to desktop and unzip.

Open notepad, type in "cmd" then click file->save as->

File name: platformtools.bat (do not name the file "cmd")

Save as type: All files (<- important!)

Move the platformtools.bat file into the Platform Tools folder that you unzipped.

(You can watch my video to help guide you through steps 2 and 3 from time stamp 0:45 to 1:10)

Double click the platformtools.bat file.

On your device, go to Settings->About phone. Scroll to the bottom and tap the "Build number" 7 times. You will get a pop up saying Developer options enabled.

Go to Settings->System->Advanced->Developer options. Find "USB debugging" and enable it.

(For steps 5 and 6, you can watch the same video above from time stamp 1:43 to 2:05)

Plug in your phone to your PC. The phone will give a prompt asking do you allow usb debugging. Tap the checkbox to say "always" and then "yes".

Download the latest december ota file and move the file into the Platform Tools folder.

From here on out, go to the ota link at the top and start at step 4.

The first time doing these kind of things may be overwhelming. But the more you do, the more you'll understand what each step does and you'll gain confidence doing this again in the future.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] wilderja:
Thanks for the info. Updated via sideload. No idea what happened with this update, but it is installed now. THANKS!
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] swangjang:
My pleasure :) Glad it worked.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] Bupahs:
There is no official announcement but I'd bet the roll out was paused on Pixel 5 and 5a because it has a serious 5g to LTE issue, whenever it tries to switch over the phone crashes.. the only way I've been able to stop it from happening to set mine to LTE.. this happens on TMobile network (unlocked devices) and it's happened to all three of my Pixel 5's that updated to the December 2022 update (I side load all the updates since it's faster then the OTA push).
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] AlkaliV2:
You would not believe how thankful I am that you solved this for me. I scoured reddit asking people if their Pixel 5's were shutting down and all of them were like, "bad battery" or "faulty motherboard". But it didn't explain why the November update was stable for me. Setting my device to LTE only fixed my shutdowns, thank you for sharing this.

For other interested, there is a longer discussion here: https://github.com/GrapheneOS/os-issue-tracker/issues/1809
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] laughs:
It is now mid January and I'm still on the November update. Has anyone on T-Mobile/Fi been able to get the update?
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
Why can't you update manually?
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] laughs:
The reason I bought a Google phone was to try to get a good product experience. I really didn't want to have to go through such a manual process to get updates. And I read that some people seem to report crashes after manually updating.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] andybones:
It's rather easy, you don't really need much if any coding experience.

Android Flash Tool

Pixel Flasher, is a very simple amazing tool as well.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
Use this page to download the OTA for your device, and follow the instructions on the page to sideload the OTA. This is the safest method for updating.

I think I saw something about this happening with Bluetooth, but apparently when i press the top "power" button and the screen goes blank, WIFI goes off. Anyone else suffer from the same problem?
[XPERIA X1 General] artesea:
yup, not sure if a reg hack or changing a setting might work. however unlike bluetooth the wifi does come back on.
[XPERIA X1 General] Ves:
This is the standard behaviour of Wifi with WM. If you want to change it you can install Advanced Configuration Tools and change it so the activity keeps up. But remember it will drain your battery.
[XPERIA X1 General] billybobjones:
like the guy said...schaps advaced config should do the trick
[XPERIA X1 General] mastermarv:
can anyone point me to the option in advanced config?
[XPERIA X1 General] mastermarv:
ok, i found the option. unfortunately it has no effect. does anyone have any other idea?
[XPERIA X1 General] billybobjones:
yes it does work. i use it myself. in advanced config use the right soft key button: menu>more settings>connections>Enable wi fi on standby mode>Reboot fone.

Should work 100%
[XPERIA X1 General] mastermarv:
i tried exactly that without success.

i want to save power by disabling the screen while letting skype stay connected via wifi. about 20secs after the screen goes blank the wifi connection gets disabled. when the screen is turned on again wifi automatically activates and connects to my network.

any ideas?

ps: i had that effect on 3 different roms:

X1i_O2_DE_CDF1215-1634_R1AA019

X1i_GENERIC_DE_CDF1215-3303_R2AA006

Bxsteez Lite 1.02
[XPERIA X1 General] Elusivo:
i'm also having that problem now that i flashed to Portuguese firmware, i didn't have the problem with the generic uk firmware...

Usually i would let my phone with wifi turned on while using messenger, and even during the night i would get messages from ppl, meaning the connection was active, and when i woke up it would have only drained some 10% of battery... but now with this R2 firmware when i turn off the display the wifi connection goes off in less than 5s... it's annoying and makes it really impractical to use wifi internet connection that way...

And yes, i did use advanced config, didn't work :(
[XPERIA X1 General] urandom:
which version of AC has this setting? 2.02.0.2.0 doesn't have anything regarding wifi in connection settings
[XPERIA X1 General] hypoh:
Yeah changing the AC setting didn't work for me either. Wifi still turned off...
[XPERIA X1 General] mastermarv:
i made an observation that is maybe interesting. I activated the option "Enable wi fi on standby mode" in schaps ac. when i put the phone into standby mode by pushing the power button wifi remains active. if i turn off the screen only (using s2u2) wifi gets deactivated.

so the option in schaps ac has an impact on the behaviour of the wifi. anyway the option is pretty much useless as in standby mode skype is not working and in blank screen mode the wifi transmitter is turned off.
[XPERIA X1 General] emuneee:
Works for me:

These registry edits keep WiFi enabled in Standby Mode but make sure to turn WiFi off when you don't need it to save as much battery life as possible.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Power\State\Suspend\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}

-change (Default) DWORD Dec to 1

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Power\State\Resuming\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}

-change (Default) DWORD Dec to 1

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Power\State\Unattended\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}

-change (Default) DWORD Dec to 1
[XPERIA X1 General] mastermarv:
that is exactly what schaps ac does. unfortunaltely this is working only for standby not for "screen off" mode. ("screen off" mode can be activated by for example s2u2, windows media player (by assigning a button to that feature) or mortsaver)
[XPERIA X1 General] emuneee:
What is the difference between standby and screen off mode? I haven't had the wifi ever shut off on my after making the registry changes I posted when the screen goes black (when I do it by pressing the power button or when it goes black on its own).
[XPERIA X1 General] mastermarv:
in standby mode the cpu is hibernating, i.e. applications like skype or an audio player (like TCPMP) are not running anymore.

if the screen in shut off all the software on the ppc continues to run.

you can see the difference when playing audio with the windows meda player. if you press the power button playback stops. if you turn off the screen playback continues. (turning off the screen in wmp can be done via menu->options->keys->activate/disable screen (the last option). just assign the camera button to that feature)
[XPERIA X1 General] emuneee:
Is a use case for the wifi to be working when the CPU is hibernating?
[XPERIA X1 General] mastermarv:
in case you configured the messaging application to download your e-mails for example every 5 minutes, the cpu is activated every 5 minutes in order to allow the application to fetch new e-mails. you can see this effect my playing music on your phone and putting it into standby. from time to time it plays your music for some seconds.

in order to provide for example the messaging app with network access wifi can configured to remain active even in standby.
[XPERIA X1 General] achmed20:
thats cant be true.

otherweise i wont be able to play music or do other stuff while my phone is in StandBy

i guess the problem are these Options:

Network-> Turn Off WiFi if no acticity (default yes)

and/or

Network-> WiFi auto off : 2 Minutes

skype prolly wont do much while its waiting for an connection/message (no activity). disable it and increase the timoutime. that, paired with the "turn off wifi in standby" worked for my MSN messenger least.
[XPERIA X1 General] xperian:
I have a suggestion/idea:

Try running PocketPlayer or CorePlayer in the background (put it on repeat). They both play music while in standby and PocketPlayer can't be paused or killed...

Tip: If you set CorePlayer to speed "10%", it'll use less battery on MP3s...

Then use Wifi. Does that help?

Any firmware update resets all settings and you need to set it first to your language in the settings.

Then you need to connect your unit again with the google account before using them.
