I know, the unit model is a mess...

My screen barely shows anything because of a messy MCU flash.

I could go blind, but I would need someone to film them going to recovery and showing me how it looks.

I also flashed the android 9 custom ROM from Hal9k and am rooted, it case it changes something

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gaynewc:
Good Evening

I would like some advice regarding my note 4. I bought it second hand, as I've had 1 before, and I love the devices.

The issue i'm experiencing is that I can't install messenger, I have no problem installing any other apps, only messenger.

These are the things I've tried to rectify the problem

I've factory reset the device.

Cleared cache and data on both Playstore and google services.

Changed the playstore settings to UK.

Uninstalled and then tried reinstalling Messenger.

Tried installing it in safe mode.

Disabled Automatic restore of device.

Tried a different log in for playstore.

Tried downloading from a different app downloader service.

The phone is currently running android 5 Lollypop. (Could I upgrade this to another version? If so how would I go about doing this? explained in novice terms).

Would rooting the device help? (also how do I do this?).

I really would appreciate any advice that anyone could give regarding this matter.

Kind regards

Col

I've searched as hard as I could on google, reddit & Here and I can't find help for this.

My phone was working fine this morning on Lineageos19.1 but I needed to downgrade to Android 11 for a specific piece of hardware to work.

I used MSMtool from Here to get back to stock firmware on android 11. But ever since I did that I have no network service what-so-ever. I pulled my sim and tried on another phone and that phone connects fine.

Been going for over 12 hours on this. Can anyone help?

[Huawei P20 Questions & Answers] Photo2023:
I've had my P20 about two years. Suddenly, a couple of days ago, the battery is draining two or three times as fast as normal. I can't see any difference in how I use my phone, and have checked the battery settings, but don't see anything different than normal. I've removed a couple of apps that use a lot of the battery and have checked a couple extra things in the "optimize battery usage" section. Usually, I could fully charge my phone and it would be good for a couple of days. The past couple of days, I fully charge it in the evening, then by morning when I wake up it's at 50%, then below 10% early afternoon. Any ideas what could be going on? Thanks.
[Huawei P20 Questions & Answers] dajast3:
Try wiping cache partition. Turn off your phone, then turn it on holding power + vol up buttons, it will boot in recovery menu. From there select wipe cache partition. You can also find video guides on yt. Good luck.

Thanks for the suggestion. For some reason, I'm not getting the recovery menu. I've even watched a couple YouTube videos about it. I'll try again though.

Try pressing the volume button first and then power, and keep holding buttons until you get in the menu, dont let go when you see the huawei logo, as some guides suggest.

Phone: Samsung Galaxy A13

Issue: fasboot oem and fastboot flash commands working

(I have the bootloader unlocked)

So I was trying to flash an GSI but when I entered fastboot mode from recovery and tried using the flash command it returned an issue saying (remote: 'unknown command')

I assume it's the phone that has the problem since it says remote and fastboot's help menu does include it

Is there a way to fix this issue?

Or incase there isnt, is there any other way I can flash a GSI
[General Topics] ax0:
Solved

The issue was that samsung doesn't support fastboot

The answer is use Odin
[General Topics] jean150219:
which GSI did you download? is it 64 bit?
[General Topics] ax0:
Sorry for late response. I haven't been active on the forum lately,

I wanted to download ProjectElixir as a GSI, the phone itself (Samsung A137F) is ARM32 but with a 64 bit binder.

It also supports Project Treble and VNDK 31.0.

Hi.

Just wanted to ask if for A71 there is any tweaked original rom?

By tweaked I mean debloated, maybe made a little faster, rooted etc.

I'm still on android 10 so I don't mind old versions. I would just need sth rock solid.

I can see a lot of AOSP roms and that's fine, it's just that in my experience from many other Samsung phones, AOSP camera app never gave equal quality of pictures and videos to original app. There were never all the camera features available.

[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Lister Of Smeg:
Hi Ictsz.roy,

I can't imagine these are any less safe, or more safe than other custom roms. I imagine they are just compiled by a hobbiest who is building roms for themselves, with no ill intentions and just sharing them.

I personally haven't tested any myself yet, as I am still fully stock for the time being. But at a later date, when I decided to rom and they are still available I have no issues trying/testing them then....

Cheers, Lister
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] ictsz.roy:
Hey Lister,

Thanks for the response. I get what you're saying. However, and this is just out of curiosity, (hypothetically speaking), if a rom zip file does contain some sort of malware, will your average antivirus software pick it up? Any thoughts?

Cheers.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Lister Of Smeg:
Hi Ictsz.roy,

No worries, you're welcome....

Here's how I see it, so depends what you mean by AV detecthing any malware within the rom....?

If you mean, will it be picked up by your computers AV... Depends if it's setup to scan within inside files, such as Zip files. And depends if the code within the zip file is known/triggered by desktop OS AV. It could be written so only readable/executable within Android OS. Most good AVs can detect this kinda of behavour. As I've seen APK files sitting on my drive being detected as risky.

However if you mean, what would happen if I flashed the rom, and it was packed with iffy code/apps/apks. I'd like to think that Googles own built in scanners would pick these up. I must admit I am very impressed with it up until now, even under older version of Android and without any official AV installed within Android OS, Google PlayServices have detected rogue apps. I've seen Android (Gingerbread) v2.3.6 detect iffy apps without any updates from the phones OEM itself. Google PlayServices gets updated regulary. Not to mention the Google PlayStore also has its own scan protection, and has flagged up many a apps in the past. And then if you go with your own trusted Android AV, such as Comodo, Avast and so on, they also have high detection rates.

So the likely hood of any iffy code/apps getting past Google's ecosystem will be remote these days I believe, just speaking of own personally experiences. Think the detection rate is very high now...

Cheers, Lister

I double-checked my password and it is 100% correct, but I still get the same error message. I tried to login with other gmail accounts as well but it shows same account/password mismatch error! I tried it again after factory resetting the phone, and the same error persists! what's wrong happening here, can anyone please explain?

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] HarvHouHacker:
Okay, so this is a difficult one. I'm not even sure if this is possible, as it's so specific and probably will not get the responses I want for this... but here goes.

I am trying to retrieve the data (passwords, history, settings, etc.) from Vivaldi web browser. Here's the problem: it's not easy to locate. On Windows and Linux, I can just go through the file system and see it there; it will even appear in my user data directories. On Android, however, it's a whole different ball of wax. I go to SDCARD/Android/data/com.vivaldi.browser only to find that nothing is there. I then do some web searching to find out that it may be stored in ROOT/data/data/, which is a problem because I can't access it normally. For most everything beyond user folders, I need root access. Pulling with ADB does nothing, as I get the does not have sufficient permissions error. To top it all off, I then go to vivaldi://about and find that it may actually store the stuff in /data/user/0/com.vivaldi.browser! It too is inaccessible.

Now, this is my friend's Tab A. I have had experience in root before, but it often ends up with me fiddling with patches in order to get stubborn apps to ignore the fact that it is rooted, and even THEN some apps don't work well at all because of things I've done on the system level. Therefore, I am very wary about rooting, but I don't know what else to do. Is there ANY WAY, other than rooting, that I can retrieve all the browser data files I want access to, so I don't potentially damage or even brick my friend's device? Is there something besides root that I can install or use that will override the device restrictions, or perhaps there is a better way to retrieve the data? I am well aware of Sync, but my friend doesn't want a Vivaldi account. I also know that passwords can be exported as text, but I also would like to import them onto another Android device (ANY Android device) where Vivaldi will be installed.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] ze7zez:
Even if you unlock the bootloader and permanently change the knox flag, you cannot be sure that the files pertaining to Vivaldi are not encrypted and associated with one particular device.

Consequently, your action may be useless.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] HarvHouHacker:
I'd still like to try, regardless, just to see if it can be done.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] ze7zez:
Wouldn't it be more prudent to ask on the Vivaldi forum if this is doable?

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] HarvHouHacker:
I didn't know where to ask, honestly. Besides, I use Vivaldi as an example, but I also have other browsers I wanted to get their data from, and they're not common ones (DuckDuckGo browser, for instance).
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Questions] DLfpv:
Hello, I have a verizon s21 base that is currently using a visible (Verizon nvmo) sim, and t-mobile esim. Visible visual voicemail works just fine with verizon firmware/carrier package, However if I enable the t-mobile esim it forces me to install t-mobile software, splashscreen, apps which erases the Samsung "voicemail" app.

I have tried to backup the apk and re install, installing downloaded apks, and installing from a link to galaxy store voicemail app. Installing myself the app will not launch and crashes, and when going to the galaxy store link it says my device is not supported. I believe the t-mobile software disables/breaks samsung vvm.

The only way I have found to make visual voicemail work is to disable t-mobile esim, pop a verizon sim in, let it install verizon carrier software, and re insert my visible sim. As soon as I enable my t-mobile esim I am forced to change back t-mobile software.

Is there any way to force the phone to stay on verizon software? Visible does not have their own carrier package. I was going to try to flash to U1 firmware but have read of ppl having issues using vvm on the U1 firmware with verizon, so I may have the same issue with visible.
