[Samsung Galaxy A22 4G] blackhawk:
Welcome to XDA.

Yeah, always do a full backup before mucking with the firmware.

Rule#1 if a OS is fast, stable and fulfilling its mission let it be. Upgrades and updates can and do break Samsung's. I'm still running on Pie, current load on this stock N10+ is over 3 years old. No issues. Less downtime, more playtime.

Do not use SmartSwitch to do backups, it can fail you miserably. Copy/paste files then verify size and if readable.

Always redundantly backup critical data to at least two hdds that are physically and electronically isolated from each other and the PC. I use OTG flashsticks as well.

My SD card serves as my data drive; having expandable storage makes life easier but it still needs to be backed up regularly.

NEVER encrypt backup drives... you are the one most likely to be locked out.

Hi, do you guys know a way to increase the icons size on the homescreen even further than what is possible? I've tried in the homescreen settings, tried home up module with a custom icons pack but still, I find the icons to be too small to my taste...

Any help would be appreciated, cheers!
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Rouvster:
Maybe try Installing a launcher tht ammows you to customize waaaaay more than stock .

I use Nova Launcher
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Poux3:
Thank you for your suggestion, it works however i forgot to add that i'm using the navigation gestures and the animations are terrible with third party launchers
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] C9H13N:
If you are already using HomeUp, you can simply reduce the value there under: "Home Screen" - "Home Screen Grid/Apps Screen Grid" which will automatically make the icons larger or, if you want, smaller...

As an example, I use 7x7 for both HomeUp settings. So my symbols are kept rather small. If you decrease the value, the symbols get larger.

[MX Player] pstein:
How can I tell MX Player to ALWAYS show the controls? Currently they are automatically vanishing after 3 seconds.

Can I somehow distinguish between the controls at the bottom and on the top?
[MX Player] theking25:
When you play a video you go on the top right, you find 3 dots after that you go to display setting, on the bottom you find interface auto hide you must uncheck it.
[MX Player] pstein:
Ok, it works - for the current video only.

When I proceed to the next or even loop the current video the controls are automatically hidden again.

Is there a way to keep the control visible until I exit MX Player?
[MX Player] theking25:
It's always visible for me until i press in the middle than it's hide.
[MX Player] pstein:
How can I export current settings?

.... and import it on a MX Player installation on another Android device?
[MX Player] theking25:
Go to Local Player Setting --> General --> on the bottom you find Export setting.

Then you chose a folder who it can be saved.

After that you send to file to the other phone and make the same to the player of the other phone, on the bottom under Export you find import setting.

So I'm spending lots of time away from home (USA Central Time Zone) in several time zones including Seoul, South Korea. My Galaxy S21 FE has a nice feature where the clock converts to a dual home time zone / visiting local time zone. This is really nice for knowing the time back home.

Anyone know a way to get this on the Tab S8? I don't see it in settings or in GoodLock...

My Tab S8+ is wifi only.

Thanks,

[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] minetech48:
So, I recently updated my phone from Android 11 to 12 in order to try and fix some app compatibilities, and in attempting to restore Magisk and TWRP, I somehow made the phone unbootable. I discovered later that TWRP is not compatible with Android 12. That doesn't matter much to my now, I just want any way to recover some of my files.

When I try to boot into the system, or into recovery, I get a screen saying: "The current image (boot/recovery) have been destroyed and can not boot"

I have tried flashing the stock recovery, matching the version as best I can (I had just done an OTA update), with no change

I have tried using fastboot boot <recovery image>, but get an error: "FAILED (remote: 'Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error')" is this something I can get around somehow? my Android tools are up to date as far as I can tell (33.0.1-1)

I have done an MSM flash before, but I would like to try everything else I can first, because I was stupid and didn't have everything backed up, and would like to be able to recover my data.
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] ghosty999:
Are you able to wipe the cache/dalv? From experience with the OP8t, your best to do the MSM flash. It gets you back to square one. Then do a TWRP backup once you're back up and running. There is a Magisk boot loop repair module that might be worth looking into.
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] minetech48:
Apparently not, "Erasing 'cache' FAILED (remote: 'Check device console.')"

As far as I know, MSM flashing wipes data, doesn't it?
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] immortalwon:
Yes. Try to find an unofficial twrp mod for a12 if possible. If not, manually flash files from an extracted rom file like boot.img.
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] ghosty999:
Sorry to hear

Yes it's essentially an OEM wipe.

Do you have a backup or image?
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] minetech48:
I've already tried both of those, and get the same errors as I listed above.

Yeah, like I said, I'm still looking for any potential solutions, as I would really rather not wipe the device.

I have another phone I can use in the meantime, so I have time to search every alternative.

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] pandaboyy:
When you started your HTC for the first time, there was a 3G icon flying around. That's the animation I was talking about. However after flashing to NATF's Rom, I was unable to turn it on.

I put the 3G Up_01_1.gif and 3G_Up.wav file in Windows/ and run the reg that someone gave me...

then use DiamondTweak to turn on animation... But still the animation didn't show up.

If i want something else than the 3G... do you guys have anything to suggest me?

Please show me how to put this pic in it :p Does it need a specified size to be able to make the animation at start up work?

PS: if you have anything good, please share (I love Panda)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] slyng1:
Bump...

I also would like to figure out how to switch out the Animation - I really liked the animated HTC logo from the Elite ROM, but i'm using a different ROM at the moment... Any ideas? I'll check out Diamond Tweak and see if it works for me.

Also the initial splash screen (the one that shows you what Rom/Radio you have) - I used to get an AT&T Logo, and now i get an HTC Raphael screen (also from the Elite ROM as far as i can tell), which works for me, I'd just like to know how to switch it out if i were so inclined..

Here's a picture of the splash screen (I cut off the left side of the screen... there is an "HTC" there:

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] sammypwns:
put that picture somewhere on your phone and then use advanced config to change the animation. its like under ms startup or something like that. it will ask for the location on the phone so put it somewhere like ex. Windows/StartUpAnimation/*.

also for the boot up screen, there is a program on here that can be used to allow you new screen to totally overwrite the old data from the previous one. The reason you have that white bit is because the old screen still has some data there. The ATT screen is white so yours has some white there
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] pandaboyy:
it didn't work on my phone...

edit: it works after I bring up the speed for the animation, however, the size is very small...

Please help... I got the animation to work on my Fuze (when increasing the speed to 1 or above), but the size is incorrect. It's just a small animation in the middle. I've even tried it with the original 3G animation, but it's also small.

How do I change this?

[Nokia Lumia 520 Questions & Answers] Riddim_GLiTCH:
Hi there, its me again. A while back, I wrote a post about my Nokia Lumia 520 not entering Flashing mode. While this issue is resolved, I am still unable to properly use the device.

I had recently decided that I would like a different operating system on it. Something that would at the very least allow me to use the phone as an actual phone. The solution: Android.

While flashing mode is now available to me, I am unable to unlock the bootloader. I made the mistake of upgrading to the latest firmware, which is not supported by WPinsider. To fix this, I would need to downgrade the firmware to an older build that WPinsider can work with. I have found one, but it doesn't work. WPinsider reports The GPT read isn't valid. Couldn't fine the text "EFI PART". I am unsure of what this means.

I would like to know of anyone knows what this error exactly means, and if there is a way to fix it.

Thanks in advance!

Confirm following these steps and the TWRP installed successfully.

Before step 7, you could run below command

Then you process step 7 to flash twrp to correct boot slot, and continue.

I can confirm that these steps worked also on my phone.

Same problem. I´ve been scratching my head around this issue for hours and following this procedure was the only way to have a working recovery and a working rom on my 5G.

For anyone interest , and - like myself and others, if the "correct" way does not work, try this method.

I don´t know if it will impact some system functions or the likes, but the phone seems to be working fine. I choose boot_a slot and went from there all in the "a" slot.

Appreciate the help cr0wdelex and Ei Nino.
[Redmi Note 12 5G / Xiaomi Poco X5] Ricfil:
Appreciate the help. But that method is simply not working for some people for some reason. The method from Ei Nino seemed to have worked ok for me and for some other people though and strangely enough.

EDIT:

It seems TWRP is somewhat permanent with the method from Ei Nino but it does not detect the internal storage. So I can´t make backups or restores because I can´t reach the internal system from it. And other times the stock recovery overwites TWRP.

I´m at a lost to what I should do to flash twrp on this device, make it permanent AND make it detect my internal storage.

I wonder why they went with thsi double slot and ram disk things. My previous redmi 5 plus hadf a recovery partition and the process was as easy as doing some comands. Never failed.

Anyone have any idea I may try to get this going?

Thank you.
[Redmi Note 12 5G / Xiaomi Poco X5] Ricfil:

1. Unlock Bootloader

[Redmi Note 12 5G / Xiaomi Poco X5] Ricfil:
Thanks for the answer Marko055.

I did Ei Nino tutorial on this post (flashing only "boot_a") and I managed to get TWRP for a while. As soon as I flash the magisk patched image and reboot stock recovery returns. I´m going to try flashing both boot a and boot b and check.

A mess this stuff with the ram disk and the likes. The "older way" of the recovery partitions on all phones where way simpler and straight to the point.

Also, there is a lot of contradicting information around here regarding the Redmi Note 12 5G. Some say to use fastboot boot twrp.img, some say to flash the boot img with twrp directly... There is a good tutorial explaining several cases on MIUI .eu website. Tried the "correct way", but the error I mencion keeps appearing.

What a mess. lol.
