Hello all,

I recently got my motherboard replaced after the pixel 5a died. The problem was covered under the extended warranty. Phone works just fine when I received it back. I tried rooting it using magisk to patch the boot.img file. After fastboot flash boot file.img, my phone would say device is corrupt and unable to start.

I downloaded the factory image from google. Tried using flash-all to completely restart the process. Used latest platform-tools (downloaded today). Bootloader is unlocked. I keep getting this error during the flash-all process and my phone is unable to boot. I'm still able to access fastboot. Where am I going wrong?

The issue is a known bug with latest SDK platform tools. Download and install platform-tools ver 33.x and you'll be fine.

Cheers!

flash stock rom via chrome browser , then patch boot.img and flash again to root , i am in lastest version a13 and root work fine
[Google Pixel 5a] Vision919:
This is the fix, download platform-tools 34.0.0
[Google Pixel 5a] tintn00+xda:
This was my problem. I used 33 and it worked fine, thanks. Anyone know when it'll get fixed for 34?
[Google Pixel 5a] System23:
when flash patched boot.img and is corrupt!!! Than Patch the recovery.img and flash it to Recovery Partition, you must start the device with Buttons-Combo in Recovery-Mode to start the System with Root!!! think you have no Recovery-Mode on this Method, you must Flash recovery.img new to use Recovery-Mode!!!

One thing I would like to do is be able to record phone calls. Does the default dialer have this built in somewhere that can be activated? TIA
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] krakout:
If all you wanna go is record, skvalex' Call Recorder is the best there is.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] wilberfan:
Seconded. Works well, been using it for quite awhile.

[Google Pixel 7 Pro] schmeggy929:
Not putting anyone down, but what is the obsession lately with call recording?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] issasaurus:
I don't know of it being anything that's more popular "lately" as it's been a common feature that roms, dialers and modules have been including for as long as I've been modding phones (many, many years. For me, it's just a nice-to-have if you ever need it feature. And it's more like, OMG we take all of our calls on mini computers now and we can't easily record a call by default?? Just my opinion.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] krakout:
Just to mention, Delta had built in bootloop saving functionality!
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Fishawy:
Thanks for that, but I had all kind of problems with both Delta and the latest Canary (SafetyNet, AdAway, and patching init_boot), so I reverted to Stable and called it a day.

Having one extra module with peace of mind to me is much better than having one less module with troubles.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] krakout:
Really? Never had an issue with Delta... Weird. Anyhow that's for a different thread 🙂

[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Chrisnik:
Cool Tensor and Throttling modifier aren't 2 completely opposite and controversial modules to work together? What is the benefit for one module trying to set higher thermal limits to avoid throttling and the other one to limiting further the clocks for not throttling..

I would like your experience about this 2 mods working together it looks interesting but i don't know if they cooperate well..
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] krakout:
I was thinking the same myself, but thought maybe I was remembering something wrong.

Anyhow, Cool actually made my phone charge slower than a '99 Nokia, so there's that...

[Google Pixel 7 Pro] xdrc45:
Make sure Zygisk is enabled in Magisk manager. I would also clear data/cache for Google Play Store, Google Services Framework and Google Play Protect Services. Reboot device and wait a couple minutes to see if CTS profile match passes. It's my understanding that Universal SafetyNet Fix takes a minute or two to apply it's setting after rebooting.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Fishawy:
Correct, my experience was that flashing one of them overrides the other. I've settled with Cool Tensor for now.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] The Apostle:
Thanks for the help. I did all that and still failing profile match. Never had this happen on other devices.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] JohnTheFarm3r:
You're using Cool-Tensor and Thermal Throttling Modifier (I made it) and I can tell you straight away that both don't work together. Cool-Tensor is reducing the threshold while my mod is increasing the threshold at which the SOC will throttle. lol

If you want your SOC to throttle earlier, to run cooler and more battery-friendly, use Cool-Tensor. If you need extra performance without throttling for some heavy workload or "gaming" use my module.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] JohnTheFarm3r:
They can't work together. Only one of them will work, and that depends on which one will overwrite which one inside vendor/etc. lol
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Fishawy:
Correct, and I confirmed that two posts above.

I switch to the Thermal Throttling Modifier module when I need that extra performance boost, but day-to-day it's Cool-Tensor.

Thanks for the awesome mod by the way!
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Chrisnik:
Does it cause stuttering and lower performance?! I want buttery smooth experience but at normal temperatures with decent battery life.. What do you suggest?!

Also what about using Cool Tensor and switching off adaptive battery feature from the settings that mentions it has a negative effect on performance..?! A lot of people people say they have 2 to 4 more SOT with adaptive battery off, while others say it is worse...

By the way my modules as of now are these.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Fishawy:
There are very few stutters and occasional 'slow' gestures, but I don't mind them if I want to extend the battery life a bit.

Haven't experimented with Adaptive Battery off yet, might give it a try. Please let me know if it makes a noticeable difference for you.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] bird333:
Thanks for the suggestions so far. Keep 'em coming.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] otonieru:
You need the 2.4.0 version mod by Displax. And after installing it, clear playstore and play services data, continue by reboot

It happened to me as well week ago with profile suddenly failing and netflix not available in store.

Do the steps above, and profile is right away passing. Netflix will took few days until it reappear in store tho
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] HipKat:
I see FoxMM has an update, not sure which version to use on this phone.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Chrisnik:
This was yesterday with adaptive battery OFF I think it is very very good... If today with heavy use remains the same it is for sure better than before.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Fishawy:
Great! I'll test it out.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Bxperiaz3:
What does Universal modem fix actually do?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] amders:

I've tried turning my Adaptive Battery off and it just kills my battery faster than ever, seeing almost 25% drain overnight while supposedly asleep. Turning it back on, drain returned to about 3-5%
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Chrisnik:
Activates 5g on non supported countries.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Chrisnik:
I don't know what is the case with your device but with mine is the same exactly overnight drain with adaptive battery OFF or on.. About 0.8-0.6 per hour.

The drain while using the device is a 20% better... Here's the results on adaptive battery off day 2...

It keeps telling me to turn it on and after 2 days i will to see if it is better or worse with it so to settle with the best option..
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] HipKat:
About 2 months ago, I left it off for 2 weeks to see if the phone would change behavior and it was just as bad the whole time. Now, for work, I DO have apps that use my GPS constantly so that may be why I got worse results with it off, where Adaptive Battery On may be freezing those apps while I sleep
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] The Apostle:
I used Xposed years ago. Have never used Lsposed. Is Lsposed necessary to use AOSP Mods are do they function independently?

Still failing CTS.

Oh well - All good for now I guess.

Netflix app fix
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Kf1st:
Long time Magisk user, finally bit the bullet and got the P7Pro, upgrading from my Pixel 2XL. Still miss that phone. lol.

Anyways, is there any module similar to Greenify anymore? I attempted to use Greenify with Lsposed and it kept hanging my phone about a minute after boot. Mainly wanted it to hibernate random apps and cut triggers for certain apps.

thanks in advance.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] K1nsey6:
FoxMMM has been a trainwreck since v2
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Fishawy:
I used to use Greenify and Naptime, but I gave them up on P7P and I don't notice a difference.

If you found a viable alternative that makes a real difference, we'll appreciate it if you can share here.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Kf1st:
RIght on. I'm giving it a go without Greenify as well. I'll report back if I end up finding an alternative that makes ant difference.

Thanks.

This is the common issue many users are facing and the new dev has disabled reporting the error
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] krakout:
Sure, www..Google.com
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] krakout:
Indeed it crashes left and right, they refuse even to put fixes for known bugs in, since Androidacy took it over it's been a huge mess. They only want to monetize it, and have been running it into the ground. Supposedly the original dev was going to create a new one,...
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] HipKat:
I can see where the complaint has come in. TBH, the only thing I really use it for is when it alerts me to updates and then to install them
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] krakout:
Yeah, but with all the crashes it suffers from, even this is impossible.

Let me try again...

Yup, crashed again. Not even resetting the app works now, it crashes every single time and the "devs" don't have the slightest cue.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] HipKat:
Odd because I just used it to update AOSP Tools recently.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] krakout:
Yeah, I know. Followed their TG group for a while (where no actual support is given), crashes are pretty random. For me it turned out it was a cosmetic switch that did it (don't remember which one) but with the next version the crashes were back no matter what... For the time being I'm back to 1.x hoping for an update from the original dev (who, I'm sure, is pulling his hair out)
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] K1nsey6:
I cant even get it to do that. This screen is what comes up when the app is launched
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] krakout:
Just go back to a 1.x version by the original dev...
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] jake.99x3:
Sorry to bump an older thread, does anyone know if the cool tensor module could be modified to NOT throttle/slow charge when charging? Ever since flashing that module, my phone takes a very long time to charge
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Fishawy:
I had some performance throttling and slow charging issues with the same module as well.

Perhaps better chances would be by asking the dev in their thread.
[XPERIA X1 General] Deja33:
I'm trying to change the t-mobile proxy settings in the connections settings because it keeps crashing the opera browser when i visit https secured websites, messenger and so on.

I unchecked the box next to "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet". But i noticed it doesnt change it and when i go back to the proxy settings, i find its still checked. Has anyone else experienced this? Is this a bug or is there some kinda lock preventing it from being changed? and how do i change it?
[XPERIA X1 General] Deja33:
ideas? tips? pls?
[XPERIA X1 General] figurine:
you on t-mobile usa? bc i have those settings
[XPERIA X1 General] fhsieh:
Tmo USA has been switching its EDGE networks over to a new server. You can now point the modem to epc.tmobile.com (not the old wap.voicestream.com) and no longer need to use any proxy.

However WinMo is a bit flaky in how it configures multiple connections, especially with how it resets the proxy settings. From Start > Settings > Connections Tab > Connections > Advanced > Select Networks, you should set both Internet and Private Network to your Tmobile connection. After you do that, you will be able to change the proxy settings.

WinMo will still switch over to WiFi if it's available (or if you manually disconnect EDGE), but this will get you connected to Tmo's new proxy-less epc.tmobile.com server and should enable https as well as other non-port-80 services.

Of course you will need to soft-reset to activate the new settings.
[XPERIA X1 General] figurine:
wait so if i used that epc. server as opposed to the wap., would i see any difference in connection speed? just curious
[XPERIA X1 General] figurine:
nevermind... i think it works the same. but atleast i don't have to deal with all the proxy crap :D
[XPERIA X1 General] Deja33:
i'm on t-mobile uk.. still having no luck. I'm looking to change the proxy settings because it keeps crashing Opera and ie when visiting secure sites.. messenger doesnt connect either.
[XPERIA X1 General] fhsieh:
Oh, well I can't help with specific Tmo UK settings. But setting both connections to your Tmo connection should still allow you to modify the proxy settings.

But as for the US' epc.tmobile.com server, the speed should be marginally faster (not a lot, it's still EDGE of course); still it will depend on your location/coverage. The biggest improvement is that all sorts of non-port-80 services (https, ssh, chat, remote desktop, etc) now work. Bottom line, it's certainly not worse than the old wap server.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Renz1er:
I want to get the Note 11, but not sure if I should make the purchase or not. Hence, would be really grateful if owners could give me a review of the phone and their recommendation.

Moreover, I wanted to know if the phone has screen burnout issue, and if it has low earpiece volume problem. Most importantly, if it has network issues? Like if the network chip dies and the phone can not find any sim connection; and the only way to fix it is by changing hardware components. Any other problems the phone faces, would like to know them as well.

Thanking you in advance!
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Sheist!:
Problems with RN11:

1. No recovery partition. Some ROMs install their own recovery despite this, but be prepared to always risk getting stuck in fastboot, if you mistakenly try to install or save one and it borks.

2. Mine has the FocalTech (fts) touchscreen, so it is possible any ROM could take away necessary screen usage. There is a known issue with missing drivers. Research this forum on that. (Note - The RN10P has a recovery partition and some (like mine) have a Goodix touchscreen. It has no A/B partitions like RN11. I recommend you research that here as well, why they created A/B partitions.)

Otherwise, no other complaints. Cannot comment on earpiece volume. No network issues.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] maXDAmn:
daily use, sure.

for thinkering, buy another brand or models.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Renz1er:
Thank you so much for your reply.

I had few more questions, would be grateful if you could answer.

First off, if I don't install custom roms, then there won't be any issue with recovery partition and screen drivers right? Also, I plan on just installing the xiaomi.eu roms, would there be any issues?

Secondly, during calls, the earpiece volume is loud or audible enough right?

Thirdly, I saw some youtube videos and also few posts, showing how Note 11 suddenly stops detecting any cellular network and its a common issue, could you comment on that?

Lastly, could you give me few links where I could get a better idea regarding the recovery partition issue and A/B partition.

Thank you in advance.

Thank you so much for your reply.

Its for daily use, but do you have any other recommendations?
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Sheist!:
Right. The potentially-missing screen drivers are OUTSIDE of the stock MIUI ROM's. Astounding we have not seen these extracted somehow yet. Now, the stock recovery won't give you much power, though.

I don't use the earpiece, only the speakers.

No comment on fading network issues.

You are in the right forum for your research. I recommend checking the Lineage20 ROM post and the crDroid 9.1/9.2 ROM post for the posts about A/B. But, search the forum afterwards instead.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] maXDAmn:
before I buy this phone I really considering the Realme 10.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] rel87:
Really low quality CCDs, if you are into photos, it gives you trouble even if you want to scan something.

Google Assistant stopped working on stock roms.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] pulsar:
As a Note 11 user. I will say you don't buy this phone. Even for daily usage. Ram management is poor in stock Rom. You can get some good performance if you install Crdroid. But fast charging won't work. So, I suggest you don't buy this model.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Sheist!:
Fast charge works for me. I do not use custom kernels, and they are varied; - some do not enable fast charging. Using crDroid 9.2.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] douteiful:
It's a good phone outside of the camera and GPU. If you're not into taking photos or gaming then go for it. Otherwise look elsewhere.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Renz1er:
@Sheist! @maXDAmn @rel87 @pulsar @douteiful , thank you very much guys for your replies! Really appreciate it!

After taking your replies into consideration, and googling a bit, I figured the Note 11 might not be the phone I am looking for; hence, I might get something else.

AGAIN, Thank you very much guys!​
[General Questions and Answers] jfsat:
I've recently worked on both a OnePlus 11 and a RedMagic 8 Pro (both with Snapdragon 8 gen 2), and on both phones I can't seem to remove YouTube. I'm rooted, and I've tried Titanium Backup and System App Safe Remover. I've also tried navigating to the APKs in a root explorer, but I was unsuccessful. I also used a terminal to run `su` and `reboot disemmcwp` in order to get write access, but that made no difference.

Is there something different about new phones? I need to power up my power-user status.

[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
Why don't you install the non-root version? It coexists with the official version and both run fine.
[General Questions and Answers] jfsat:
That's a good suggestion, and maybe that's where I'll end up going. It's just kinda irksome that I used to have more freedom. Seems like "the man" has been working hard against the rooting community for the last couple of years.
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
I have seen too many posts on this and have been wondering for long why people bother so much with replacing the official app, when the non-root version works just fine, including opening links by default. There is just nothing that the root version can do which the non-root version can't, so I suggest to install the non-root version and forget about it.
