Hi, I'm having a problem with my phone (C21Y RMX-3263) being stuck in bootlop after accidentally updating magisk via direct install option (has been rooted once already with patched boot img and spd tools). I figured I should just flash the old firmware but neither SPD research and upgrade tools work properly, for about 10-30 seconds all is going well, but then it just gets stuck on downloading, on different parts like super, or boot randomly alternating between attempts. I've left it on for about 4 hours and tried multiple times with no progress at all. There is nothing visible on the screen but holding the vol down button and plugging the cable in seems to initiate fastboot. I've tried using different versions of the tools and different firmwares for my model but nothing seems to work. The bootloop itself is very weird - the phone buzzes and the splash logo appears, afterwards starting to glitch out extremely eerily, the colors start to become weird, white lines dance on the display and after that it turns blank and flashes gray for a few seconds before turning off, looping and doing it all again. Pretty sure this isn't a hardware issue as the phone was working fine before. Assistance would be much appreciated

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] loardsudo:
I just bought a Galaxy S8 online, no apparent damage or even scratches, but it arrived with 0% battery and connecting it to a charger, at first, brought up the charging "ring" with lightning bolt, but no numbers or other indications that it's charging. After about 15-20 seconds it would go black, then back to the same screen. I tried to do a hard reset but that just made it bring up the first boot screen that says "Galaxy" in the middle and "powered by Android" below. This screen is now flashing on for half a second, going black and repeating about a 2-second loop. It also vibrates each time. I think there's supposed to be an LED indicating it's charging, but if so, mine's not coming on
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Return or try replacing the battery.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] loardsudo:
now its not showing anything i think i over charged it gonna take apart now
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
You can't over charge it. If the battery is dead it will not boot even with the charger; insufficient power.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] loardsudo:
well it wa stuck on charge and flashing white and now dead to rights no lights or nothing lol
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Battery failure if you're lucky.

Return it if possible.

So... I was using this android app called BugJaer or something like that and it bricked my phone or at least I think.. it's stuck in fastboot mode and I tried flashing stuff to it and it hasn't work I'll include pictures and the name of it is like holi or something and yes the bootloader is unlocked .
[OnePlus Nord N200 5G] Sprunglicious:
Follow mg lineage guide, but replace the lineage ota with either the android 11 ota from scanman0's guide or the latest android 12 one from the Oxygen Updater app. Make sure its a full ota if you do the latter method.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] mmafighter077:
So I decided to go all out magsafe on my s23 ultra. After much trial and error with different products I think I came up with the perfect setup for myself. I love it because it's not too bulky and it doesn't look like a Frankenstein phone. 😂😂

I love clear cases but I hated the clear magsafe cases available. Most of them had the white circle but I hated that with my phantom black phone. And the ones that had a black circle also had that line below that blocks part of the Samsung logo. So I ended up buying this magsafe adapter. (Unfortunately it's not on Amazon). It has built in magnets for a stronger hold and it's made of metal and has a nice finish.

https://www.groupon.com/deals/gg-mp-naztech-magup-magsafe-magnetic-ring-2-pack?utm_source=anonymous&utm_campaign=UserReferral_ma

I went with the OtterBox Prefix case. I love it because it has squared off sides instead of round.

I ended up getting the magsafe ring holder grip for the back side of the phone. I love this because it allows me to stick my phone to metal surfaces because it has magnets on both sides. It can also be used as a kick stand because of the rotating ring. Has a nice feel and it looks nice!

Hope it inspires more Galaxy users and hopefully that makes Samsung start putting a version of magsafe in their phones.

[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
I'm looking forward to ESR HaloLock ring and Ring Stand.

Anker 610 Ring Holder should work too.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] mmafighter077:
I had the esr. The shine goes away after about a week and it's not magnetic.

The ring stand didn't stick to metal surfaces, so that was a deal breaker for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
How's the adhesive? What I don't nt like about all these rings(irrespective of any brand) is that these are not re-usable, meaning can't simply remove from one case and install in another case afaik.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] mmafighter077:
The adhesive is strong but I don't think it was meant to be reused. But hey the two pack is $13. So you'll have enough for 2 cases.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] mmafighter077:
No issues on this adapter.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] mmafighter077:
I don't know how well it will work underneath the case. I haven't heard too many positive things when people place it under the case. It's typically not that strong when you do it that way.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Did some digging...looks like no matter which magsafe accessory is used more or less it affects the S-Pen, the stronger the magnetic "bond" the higher the interference is!
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] mmafighter077:
Not true. The one I have right now has no interference with my s pen. I'm using it right now. No issues. If there is interference it's not detectable at all.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] mmafighter077:
What brand of magsafe adapter did you purchase?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] mmafighter077:
I think you'll be satisfied with your set up. The ring is the best part. Let me know how you like it.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Tha_Dynasty2049:
Idk if this helps i have magsafe in my UAG case since i had the phone and i had no issues at all. Plus i even have a magnetic pop socket i use from time to time and its pretty flawless. Unless your using magsafe on the charger maybe?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
As per this YouTube video the S pen functionality disrupts when additional magsafe accessories like magsafe powerbank, magsafe wallet etc. are attached.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
MagSafe(inbuilt) cases do not have this issue afaik.

I wish magsafe cases without the "alignment stick" at bottom existed. There are a few from unknown makers on aliexpress and such but magnets are pretty weak as per reports.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] sagarb:
Esr halo lock is pretty good I'm using it
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
There's a magnetic ring below it or the case itself is a magsafe one?

Also check wireless charging is working fine or not.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] mmafighter077:
I watched the video and it was only some accessories not all of them. It also depends on what case you're using. My set up does not have that issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] mmafighter077:
Are you able to stick your phone to a metal surface (like a fridge) with that magnetic ring on?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] sagarb:
Case it self have a magnetic wirless works perfectly fine
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] sagarb:
Yes i can
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] mmafighter077:
Very nice. On Amazon someone asked that question and the answer was no. Glad to see they were wrong. Might pick this one up.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] grangermoch:
I've recently been on a bender trying to find the best Magsafe case options for my S23U. I've tried about 6 different Magsafe cases so far (several of which I returned almost immediately because they were falsely described on Amazon and just altogether were not magnetized).

The two cases that show the best promise and already have Magsafe built in, are the Ghostek Exec and Mous cases IMO. I'm comparing these side by side this week and will make a decision on one or the other. They both offer good protection but honestly they are a bit thicker of a case than I prefer.

Separately, I'm also going to try putting the ESR ring on a few thinner cases like this Ringke Onyx case and the Caseology Nano Pop. I just hope the adhesive of the Magsafe ring will stick properly to the texture of these two cases. Has anyone tried these already by chance?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] mmafighter077:
No I haven't tried either of these phones but I don't believe most magsafe adapters will adhere to silicon, which the Caseology case is.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] grangermoch:
Good to know, thanks. Thank God for Amazon returns..
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] mmafighter077:
Is this the esr halo lock that you're using to stick your phone to the fridge. Just got mine in and it's not doing it.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] hshah:
I have the Spigen Neo Hybrid Case (Gunmetal) which has a textured surface. Took a gamble on the metal ring sticking to the case and bought https://lamicallshop.com/products/magnetic-phone-ring-holder

It has been a week now and no issues whatsoever :)
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] grangermoch:
I ended up putting the ESR ring on the Ringke Onyx case. I like the green on black and despite the case having a bit of a grippy texture to it, there's no sign of the ESR ring giving out. I've also used my Anker battery with it and no issues supporting the weight of that.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] SlugInfinite:
I've been trying to get my oneplus 5t updated to 10, but whenever I flashed any of the OTA files my camera will not launch. The only way I've been able to get it to function is doing a complete wipe and installing 4.7.1. I tried to then update from that but it just gives me errors. What am I doing wrong?

Since I am on an older version (7.1.1) of android, should I flash the 10.0.0 firmware file before flashing the OTA? And I would probably need to be on TWRP 3.7 (I may be misunderstanding something, but I'm trying).

Let me try to explain more of what I've tried:

I've tried every version of twrp I can find (3.2.-3.7)

Manually editing the META-INF/com/google/anffdroid/updater-script

Using unbricking tools

EDIT:​

So I installed a 9.0.0 Stock rom, and the camera is working just fine. I haven't tried yet to upgrade up to 10 or attempt to install any custom ROM. These were the steps I took:

Clean flashed the 7.1.1 (4.7.1) ROM , rooted with magisk and made sure everything worked.

Uninstalled Magisk using the twrp zip package. Cleared darvik/cache/data/system.

Flashed OOS 9.0 Stock OTA . Flashed Magisk and everything worked as expected.

Made a NANDroid backup.

Only TWRP that would work through it all: twrp-3.2.1-0-universal-codeworkx-dumpling.img

Oxygen 4.7.1 Rom: OnePlus5TOxygen_43_OTA_003_all_1711100210_e640.zip

Oxygen 9.0 Rom: OnePlus5TOxygen_43_OTA_042_all_1812232104_efa031659de.zip

TLDR:​

I got Android Pie installed and the camera/flash is working correctly. I haven't tried to upgrade yet but I will do so tomorrow.

Now, a quick question: Do I need to be on an upgraded TWRP in or-er to get android 10-13 installed?

This is what recovery I plan to try: twrp-3.3.1-1-20190713-codeworkx-dumpling.img

Or should I go for the highest unofficial 3.7 version?
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] DoR3M3:
Do you really need/want TWRP? Because you don't need it, unless you're going to unlock the bootloader, root it, install all sorts of 3rd party roms, etc...

I noticed too when flashing clean OOS 10 that my camera also broke.

SO...

My bootloader is locked, with OOS 9 installed, as a clean wiped install. Then I started up 9, set it up and updated the apps in Play Store, then I booted into OOS Recovery, and sideloaded 10.0.1. I did not wipe it in Recovery, I only sideloaded it, known as a Dirty Flash, and my camera works fine!

Here, I just took these screen shots, getting messy with a cheeseburger! LOL

I used the full flashable 9.0.11 from here;

https://xdaforums.com/t/op5t-rom-ot...l-oxygenos-roms-and-incremental-otas.3708099/

Also after flashing 9.0.11, the system showed me there was an update I could do in the phone OTA, so no need to then flash 10.0.1 manually.

I also booted into the OOS Recovery and wiped 9.0.11, then booted 9.0.11 back up and did this OTA install too, to test it out, it also worked good..

Hi Everyone,

I have the 2020 Moto G Stylus (XT2043-4) RETUS variant I'm using on T-Mobile US. I've read in the forums that I can cross-flash this phone with the 2021 XT2131-1 variant. Is it also possible to cross-flash the recent 2022 XT2215 (Moto G Stylus 5G) RETUS firmware to my XT2043-4 phone? (I still get good battery life and can't seem to part with it's stereo speakers. :rolleyes: ).

If this is possible, are the flashing steps the same? TIA

You don't need a pc to unlock bootloader, but you need some device that detects USB like a tv or another phone if you've got an adapter.

But you will need a pc to do everything else, like flashing recovery/magisk.

Thanks friend Bobaboi69,

I am on baseband CWD1 and the Stock A13 (May Update) seems to be a R/O-System & No GSI boots past logo 🤦‍♂️

I am scared to flash any ROM zips after I flashed Tuki1.2 coz my IMEI got erased when I tried to wipe phone & install Lineage 20 zip. I only upgraded from A11 Stock to A13 Stock just to try Grass Kernel. Grass Kernel is Faaaast 👍
[Samsung Galaxy M21 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] BobaBoi69:
Apparently my phone being the SM215F doesnt supprt A13 i am using the Current naz kernel which is keeping my phone cold and giving out better performance than before

But if the grass kernel seems to be working fine

Then stay within that kernel as it can be compatible with your model
[Samsung Galaxy M21 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] OldNoobOne:
Thanks friend,

I'm not comparing Naz Kernel with Grass Kernel, I'm not qualified to make any comment on kernels except as a general user perspective but right now kernel is not my problem really, I just want to get 1UI5.1 Core out and install GSI like Elixir/Crdroid/Ancient/Derp etc. but the problem is my bootloader is not fully unlocked and shamshung got fastboot/d disabled. Binary 3 wont allow Binary 1/2 also i read somewhere that May Update Stock ROM is RO-ROM. Why is shamshung ruining its own business, they should give some freedom to their customers..strange behavior.

[Samsung Galaxy M21 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] BobaBoi69:
The only way to fix this might be to downgrade to lower firmware version i.e the 2022 patch

As for me with my SM215F the bootloader option is not greyed out but still allows me to turn it on and off

Let me know it its working or not
[Samsung Galaxy M21 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] newt23:
It's supposed to be like this. This means your bootloader is unlocked. Once unlocked, you can only re-lock it from download mode which is why it's greyed out in settings.
[Samsung Galaxy M21 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] OldNoobOne:
Yes I got some help from Curstantine & so Bobaboi69 was right, after I downgraded from M215G A13 May 2023 stock Firmware to M215F A12 Sept 2022 Stock Firmware now GSI boots again. Yes bootloader unlocked but its going to be a challenge to flash Grass Kernel now. Im gonna try though. Thanks for all your help friends.

Grass Kernel (June 2023 version) booted, the older version booted too. I am going to try Mint Kernel too :D

[Samsung Galaxy M21 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] OldNoobOne:
Thanks Friend,

I feel the devs are working with M215F DT and not M215G trees because the latter came later, so I had to downgrade to M215F A12 to get some things working again. Correct me if i'm wrong though.

P.S.:- (Just Imagining) I think to make the andoid custom developement model smoother & hassle-free both for the Devs and the users, XDA & others could perhaps introduce a crowd-funding option for every device released in the market so that the devs can get hold of the devices sooner and start building custom stuff for the devices & then the users won't have to wait for 2 years to get the best possible ROMS for their devices :)

Meanwhile my dream

Making an os as smooth as IOS 🥲🥲🥲

Which does make me look like an idiot but cmon you gotta admit if that level of smoothness is achieved the android development can go more further
[Samsung Galaxy M21 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] BobaBoi69:
The thing about these is that the factors are set by apple themselves

And as for ios

They made it in such way that it will give performance no matter what because... The iphones have very low amount of ram in comparison to android for eg the S23 ultra has litrelly 12gb ram but the 14 pro max comes with 6gb and yet feels smoother in contrast to the hardware

The android needs to achieve is simply the level of smoothness and consistence since android possesses good universal connectivity , good customization, good compatability in comparison with apple .

The only fact holding android back is that its not consistent and also loses smoothness over time.
