[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rockson01:
I have an old non-rooted smartphone that I currently need and cannot format. Scanning with the app Diskusage the part named "system data" has reached the size of half of all memory. It has gotten bigger as time has gone on, but particularly in the last few months. A year ago, for example, it was half the size of now.

The point is that today I noticed when and how this "system data" gets bigger: it happens when I uninstall an old app, perhaps a large one. This system data becomes bigger after uninstalling, and even reinstalling the same app, the size does not decrease again. This makes me think that android does some sort of backup of some kind when an uninstall of a certain type happens (probably big and old app, it seems). No cleaner is able to decrease this part.

Could there be a solution to decrease the now enormous size of this system data without formatting?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackhawk:
Back up all critical data. That's all that really matters.

Try SD Maid Pro, scan with Malwarebytes.

If that fails it's factory reset time, if that fails and it's not Android 9 or higher it may need reflashed.

Possible virus or rootkit. Android 8 and lower are vulnerable to the infamous XHelper.

You are what you load. Maybe just a poorly coded 3rd party app that corrupted or permanently changed hidden user settings in the user data partition (factory reset will clear this if you can't rectify it) or outright invasive malware.

Maybe someone here has a better plan...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rockson01:
Tried both, neither cleaner or antimalware fixes. I think it's some kind of bug.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackhawk:
What device and OS version?

What do you mean by "can not format"?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rockson01:
It's a MT6580, with Android 5.1

I can't do the reset otherwise the problem was solved
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CXZa:
Could be a faked one? Then partition sizes can be anything...

Anyways, with those specs if they are real, mtk-su should work.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rockson01:
It's real, enlarging this part decreases the available space, like there's something in the system files that gets bigger, junk files or backups, or something like that. And it happens progressively, I've often read about this problem on the forums (this for example: https://community.oneplus.com/thread/514553 ),but I've never found a solution.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackhawk:
Anything below Android 9 is suspectable to partition worming nasties like Xhelper. Malware should always be considered when persistent and abnormal behavior is seen especially in older Android versions.

Something is generating the data. Obviously you need to find/examine that data then extrapolate the process responsible if the easy fixes don't work. To start you need to find the tools to do this. This deeper than I ever need to or care to go at least thus far. If you want to continue to play with it you might want to kill it's internet connection and isolate it as a security precaution.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rockson01:
However, I've gone through various antiviruses, including Malwarebytes, but it doesn't find any type of malware or virus.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] julien712:
Hi,

Have a Redmi Note 9S on 12.5.1

I can't get any update after this version.

On xiaomifirmwareupdater, there are Android 13 version on 13.0.X

Exact firmware on my phone is : MIUI Global 12.5.1 Stable 12.5.1.0 (RJWEUXM)

On settings > update > force to check new miui version > no new version found

- bootloader not unlock on me phone

How can i install new version ?

Thanks
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] NOSS8:
You are confusing the Miui and Android version.

Download the following rom recovery to your current version and try via the updater (3 points at the top right, select file).

12.5.1.0->V12.5.2.0.RJWEUXM->V12.5.3.0.RJWEUXM,etc...

You can also try directly with V12.5.6.0.RJWEUXM.

Attention in case of problem and with a locked bootloader, direction repair center.

You can also unlock the bootloader then relock it once the latest version has been flashed.(Safer).

Xiaomi Firmware Updater

The ultimate script that provides firmware packages for Xiaomi devices.

[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] julien712:
@NOSS8 i already try this.

Unlock bootloader is the only safely solution to go to 13.0.2 directly with Miflash tool ?

And relock bootloader with the option in Miflash tool ?
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] NOSS8:
Even with Miflash, I would flash the last A12 (without locking) start the phone up to the home screen then re flash and lock.

Or test a Xiaomi EU rom (better than stock).
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] julien712:
Thanks for answer.I have unlock bootloader and install official 13.0.2

No problem.

I will look into Xiaomi EU Rom thanks

Hey, i have recently bought a micro sd card for my phone and after flashing sd it corrumpted and my phone is rooted i used application named : [root] SDFS - Format SDCard i tried to format my sd card but it corrumpt the application shows an strange partition with name ? and no space it shows 0 i'm curious and i clicked format and a few seconds later the phone reboot and goes on recovery and it says :

#Reboot Recovery Cause is [UNKNOWN]#

E:[libfs_mgr]is_dt_compatible(): firmware info was not valid: '/proc/device-tree/firmware/android/compatible : No such file or directory

so i don't really understand the situation i reboot system now and it stuck on Samsung Galaxy S8 logo so i managed to flash it with latest firmware with frija and odin but odin says pass! and on the phone goes on recovery and is the same situation

And cannot flash TWRP because the phone is locked on OEM

So i tried:

Flash older version fail because binary is not correct

Samsung Kies and smart switch cannot be used because "the phone cannot be initialised" (SM-G950F)

i followed this guide: (https://xdaforums.com/t/weird-messa...mpatible-firmware-info-was-not.3936625/page-2) so i extract AP file and rename Boot.img.lz4 to Recovery.img.lz4 and it started on the samsung logo and the blue led but that's all

and i upload somes images of the recovery and the bootloader

Hi all,

I'm planning on buying this one after my galaxy S20+ is exhausting (now low display intensity, low battery, Knox, etc).

However, I read here on another thread, that the Mi 11 is not as good as I expected, which is why I want to ask:

do you still recommend the Mi 11 or do you have another recommendation with good camera, flash- and rootable (without something like knox), 6.2-6.8 inches, etc for a similar price?

Thanks in advance
[Xiaomi Mi 11] senkrad76:
I was a Samsung user up until the Note 4, then I went to Huawei, and now Xiaomi. I love my Mi11 and will eventually upgrade in the Xiaomi family.

My stock camera, IMO, was comparable to a relative's Pixel 6, I haven't played too much with GCam or other options.

The Mi11 is rootable, and I recommend going with the xiaomi.eu images.

[General Topics] pizza_alarm:
Hello people,

I am looking for a relatively modern phone with replaceable battery, good camera and good custom ROM support. I would be grateful for a few recommendations.
[General Topics] V0latyle:
It seems your question could be answered with a fairly simple Google search.

As far as good camera and ROM support...the only devices that have replaceable batteries seem to be budget to mid market phones, so they probably won't have very good cameras. As far as ROM support goes, it's entirely dependent on how popular the device is, but these days there are fewer device specific custom ROMs and more GSIs as most newer devices are Treble compliant.
[General Topics] ethical_haquer:
You could look at the Fairphone 4, replaceable battery, 48MP camera, not sure about ROM support. Also, Volla makes multiple great phones in Germany, good cameras, good ROM support (boots Google-free Android, Linux, and others, look at the website), and some have a replaceable battery, like the Volla Phone X23.
[OnePlus Nord N20 5G] bricklife4me:
If you hunt down your firmware online, most likely it'll come package with an MSM tool which uses the OfP format.

The firmware is packaged in the OFP file. The Ofp file has to be unpacked you have to use a tool called Oppo decrypt. Follow the link to GitHub for the tool on how to install it

Link to oppo decrypt https://github.com/bkerler/oppo_decrypt

How to install and use https://www.droidwin.com/extract-decrypt-realme-ofp-firmware/

Once you unpack the firmware OSP file, you get all the raw images. There's one more step to do. You'll notice that you have super.img in four parts. You have to merge these into one super.img

In linux you can use simg2img to merge the super. On windows there is an other tool. Which ill upload later.

Once you completed these tasks, you can flash the firmware using fast boot and fast boot d command.

Edit. Here is the tool to merge the supers. Thanks to drscad for the tool.

In the plugn in tab see the bottom of list there splice/combine.

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] TemporarilyAwake:
I'm trying to see if anyone else encountered the following, I'm trying to use a BackBone controller on my OnePlus 6T running the latest update of LineageOS.

The controller in question is connected by USB and gets its power from the device itself. It seems to work fine on other phones, so it's not the controller that is faulty (tested it on a nothing phone).

I've tried different methods of trying to find out what it is. But the controller seems to not list even in Termux.

Android itself does register there is a connection to the USB port but seems to undertake no other action than trying to charge it (eg. It sees there is something connected.)

Before anyone asks, my USB port is squeaky clean was one of the first things I did.

Well, It has happened twice already, and I had to reinstall the entire OS 3 times, let's not forget about having to update the phone and reconfigure it every time.

Anyway, I downloaded some Pix3lify magisk module or something like that, basically, after installing it and rebooting, my system is destroyed.

So the question is: How can I get unlimited Google Photos storage on Stock ROM without destroying my system?
[Realme GT Neo 2] Lord Sithek:
Try this: https://github.com/Xposed-Modules-Repo/balti.xposed.pixelifygooglephotos/releases/tag/5-4.1

This is called Pixelify too but it's different from what you've tried already. It's LSPosed module so you have to flash LSPosed first: https://github.com/LSPosed/LSPosed

And then spoof your device for GPhotos only as Pixel XL

By the way, many custom ROMs for bitra has that spoof included
[Realme GT Neo 2] rtkpX:
Yes, I know about the custom ROMs with that spoof included, but I'm using the Stock ROM and I don't want to switch to a custom one now, since a lot of features like the camera, google assistant, etc... don't work properly on other ROMs.

Instructions to get Unlimited Google photos backup on any rom without spoofing whole Device :

⭕️ Advantage of this method :

No other apps like miui cam etc will not be effected. And safety net also will not influenced.

Steps :

1) Install Latest Magisk and use magisk hide properly to make sure you passed safety net.

2) Install latest Riru magisk module. (https://github.com/RikkaApps/Riru/releases)

3) Install latest Lsposed magisk module.

🔅 Lsposed for Magisk Stable & Zygisk (https://t.me/LSPosedArchives)

Note if you are using Magisk with ZYGISK, you should use only Lsposed zygisk build (https://t.me/LSPosedArchives)

4) Reboot and make sure Lsposed status is active.

5) Install latest Pixelify Google Photos Module

(https://github.com/BaltiApps/Pixelify-Google-Photos/releases)6) Open Lsposed and enable Pixelify module, and select Google photos app in apps list.

Note: If you need pixel props to enable for any other app you can also select those apps, but make sure you disable "spoof only Google photos" toggle on pixelify module.

7) Reboot the device and open pixelify module.

• Set Device spoof to Pixel XL for Original Quality unlimited .

• Set Device spoof to Pixel 5 for Storage saver Unlimited.

8) Reboot the device and open Google photos app. that's it enjoy.

I'm very disappointed about the speed from Opera Mobile (the standard one, which is preinstalled). I already imported the user.css and urlfilter.ini, but even with HSDPA-connection it's very slow.
