fastboot handles that automatically. and this is still 10 times faster than flashing from EDL mode.

how would you restore userdata without reboot? open shell and type stop in root shell. then type start. does this look like a crash to you?

it may not satisfy you, but it is the only available method for samsung devices. or how do you backup userdata partition of samsung stock ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] WoKoschekk:
first of all there's no "start" and only a "stop".

and yes, it looks like a crash for me and also for you as you said (red):
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] alecxs:
Actually, it's a controlled shutdown of system_server, that warning you quoted me is about the dirty unmount of the partition, not about stop/start ;)

Hello and Greetings!

I have one Question to all Custom Roms here in the Forum for the Nothing Phone.

Is there a Custom Rom with Glyph Mods?

I am on Android 13 Stock Rom and think about Unlock and Root the Phone and install a Custom Rom for more Options.

Something like that the Glyps activate every 20 Seconds after getting a Message, or a missed Call..

Sorry my English, come from Germany..

Best regards

I have this watch that has a specialized os that I want to change to more usable os.

How Do I Get Iphone Software On My I900?

Thanks For Your Help
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] cudahy_boy:
Samsung pass doesn't work. What do you guys use I just came from iphone and it has a password manager built in. What free ones are available
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] evangelionpunk:
1password. Works everywhere and on everything.

Bitwarden has a free account offering and their premium is very cheap.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] EtherealRemnant:
I use Bitwarden's $10 a year tier so I can use my YubiKeys with it.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Brava27:
I don't. Google password manager is free and works flawlessly. Anything else is a waste of time.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] GastonC:
How do you get Google pass to be the default over Samsung pass?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Brava27:
Under passwords and autofill in settings. Then select autofill service.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] hand-filer:
Bitwarden $10 annual plan. Avoid using LastPass as they have had several security breaches recently.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] evangelionpunk:
Not true and several reasons why some others are better and why I don't and wouldn't use Google password manager atm. YMMV
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Brava27:
Your choice. Google has never failed me.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] EtherealRemnant:
Good luck if your Google account ever gets breached. Or if Google one day bans your account like they've been known to do to others for seemingly no reason. I used Google's password manager for years but when this flaw was pointed out to me, I switched to Bitwarden that same day and I haven't looked back.

It's also very easy to breach your Google account and thus all your others if your phone is stolen.

Like iPhone, a stolen Android phone's PIN could be used to change Google account password

A report from The Wall Street Journal last week sounded the alarm on an obvious, but frightening issue on iPhone...

9to5google.com
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Brava27:
These are all valid points but chances of happening are very slim.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Brava27:
I definitely agree. I might just be really lazy and don't care anymore. I could tie tomorrow and all the passwords I had would be irrelevant lol.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] GroovyGeek:
Does Google password manager fill in apps?

I second avoiding LastPass. In addition to the semi-annual breaches, their pricing is ridiculous. $50/year to store 100kB of data in the cloud? There has been zero evolution to their app over the last 5 years, so it is not like they have heavy RnD costs.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Brava27:
Yeah that's true. My good friend just passed at 37. His poor wife couldn't access his iPhone and it made things very difficult to process things and get photos etc.... I will do this process for my wife.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] EtherealRemnant:
Is it worth the risk for that slim chance? If someone gets ahold of your online identity, they can ruin every part of your life in a matter of minutes, all while you're totally locked out from being able to stop them. My Bitwarden isn't even tied to my Gmail address for the login and I keep my 2FA in Authy separately, with Authy set to not allow multi-device. It would be pretty difficult for anyone to breach me unless they put in a lot of work that my meager net worth wouldn't be worth doing.

Besides, Bitwarden is actually more convenient than Google's password manager in a lot of areas. When enabling the accessibility options, I've noticed that the password popup shows in places that Google's never did which means less having to manually copy and paste.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Brava27:
I'll look into bitwarden. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] crazyut:
KeePass Offline; only caveat is that you have to back it up manually (so each time I update it, I copy it to other devices in case the phone dies or is erased or stolen; my password is super long but I only have to remember one password).
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] evangelionpunk:
Imo never ever have all your eggs in one basket and always try to avoid one single point of failure where possible.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] EtherealRemnant:
💯

Same thing goes for financial institutions. My partner has everything through Wells Fargo and it's like pulling teeth trying to explain how wrong that can go.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] idaadi:
I use keepass2android Offline with sync and a yubikey NFC for 2fa (challenge Response) . Sync happens with foldersync . Alternatively you can use keepass2android (not the offline version) and then use a cloud storage solution when choosing where to store it.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] krips2003:
I have both Bitwarden and 1Pasword. I mostly use Bitwarden.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] evangelionpunk:
Interesting. Why?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] krips2003:
Nothing in particular. Just like that.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] TODI1111:
I use the SafeInCloud password manager
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] DeHAWK:
I use NordPass and NordVPN, paid services.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Coderedpl:
Another vote for BitWarden.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] evangelionpunk:
Minus the fact that they've been sitting on some much needed feature requests for years and their ux a bit clanky and old. Oh and that they'll tell you to go ahead and develop your own lol. But it does the job for most fine.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] peterg21:

What is the best way to hold and orient the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra for maximizing GPS signal reception?

Vertical, horizontal, sideways, face up, or face down?

I'll be using the S21 Ultra to record GPX tracks, and need to minimize inaccuracies in GPS data collection while I'm walking around.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
Has more to do with objects that can hinder reception. Terrain, buildings etc.

Amount of available satellites can effect it too.

Check settings so it's at max precision and sample rate ie max battery consumption.

Locate the GPS antenna on a tear down and play with its orientation, etc. You want a direct line of sight to the satellite(s) it's using whenever possible. Power lines may effect signal integrity.

If you want the phone to use the full display and ignore the hole punch camera, then yes there is a way. I use the magisk module "None Display Cutout". After installing, you need to change the Display Cutout setting in Developer Options to "No Display Cutout".

Hi.

I'm a bit new to android rooting but have experience with linux.

I was trying Complete Linux Installer app for installing Kali Linux on my android phone.

I follow the instructions the app provides by downloading the zip folder and extracting the two files into a directory called kali in /

Before this I installed both the terminal app and the Android VNC app on my phone.

When i try to boot linux it says "unable to get permission from terminal app. Please reinstall Complete Linux Installer"

...and I did. But to no surprise, it still didn't work.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alecxs:
The app requires rooted android. rooting android phone is a bit more than just getting root privileges on shell. You need to unlock bootloader and root the device first.

Also please note you can't run linux on android, these kind of apps just provide some chroot environment for command line you can connect to VNC or SSH.

The app mentioned is outdated, but you can use Linux Deploy.

Hi there. I have some serious troubles with the usb data line of my Mi5s:

I used for a while a weak usb cable, then I replaced it and also replaced the entire USB-C port (with flat cable, mic and other stuff). But since then the phone won't be recognized from PC and OTG don't work anymore. I bought three other USB-C parts from different vendors, without results.

Now I'm connecting via USB directly to the motherboard (USB_DP as D+ and USB_DM as D-) taking Vcc and GND from the type C port. But, as always, it only recharges without any data connection.

The phone has only TWRP, no OS and empty internal memory.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CyberNautica:
Hello everyone,

Recently I found my old galaxy S III GT-I9300 and wanted to "recycle" it by putting a Lineage ROM.

After installing the ROM (installed just fine), I wanted to use Magisk.

I took the official Magisk APK file from GitHub and added the ".zip" extension to it.

When flashing trough TWRP, there was no error, but when I reboot the phone, the Magisk app was shown but I had no root access.

I tried to flash it using the boot.img methods, but I had the same problem: Magisk did not detect any root access.

I checked if magisk could be installed on this ROM and found out that it can.

Now, I've changed my ROM several times, always with the same issue.

Please help me. I'm struggling for a month now, and I still don't know what's going on.

=========

my device

=========

model : Samsung Galaxy S III GT-I9300

android version : android pie (9)

rom : lineage 16 : link

magisk version : latest (v25.2)

(flashed by TWRP and patched boot.img method)

modification : recovery (twrp 3.6.0_9-0, link)

=========

I provide my logs too. (only magisk startup beacause I can't upload my recovery logs)

thank you in advance for your help.

best rom for s3 imo.. and then dont update magisk it will also break. just leave as it is. "linux"
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CyberNautica:
Ok. Thanks for your help. I'll try.😀
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CyberNautica:
I found something interesting... When I installed the Magisk app, it didn't allow me to install modules or manage root access. However, when I opened the Android terminal app and typed the "su" command, the "grant root access" notification from Magisk popped up on the screen. I was very curious, so I tried to install a root browser, and it worked! I had root access. However, in this case, because I wanted modules, it was not very helpful for me.

Maybe a glitch to report idk...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wack.galaxy:
when magisk fails to install it may still give you root access. with a faulty installation you may also get su / root even without prompt / grant. like a perm root. there are also several steps on uninstallation. removing the app does not remove su.

[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Welcome to XDA.

You never should mix internal storage with the SD card even if possible.

The SD card is the data drive; all critical data goes here including data needed to do a full reload.

Internal storage: Only the apps, DCIM and download folders go here. The data drive can be used to backup the DCIM folder but that folder's name can't have dcim in it!

Backup the data drive regularly and redundantly.
