[Lenovo P11] darksky99:
Hi everyone, hope you are doing fine.

I have recently purchased via Aliexpress a Lenovo Xiaoxin Pad 2022 (TB128FU 4gb/64gb/Snapdragon 680) that came with a "Custom Global Rom" that does not update, has issues with multiple apps to play in HD and also has the "Unlocked Bootloader" every time you turn it on.

Anyone knows where to find a guide or point me the steps in order to change this fake Rom to the Official one and lock the bootloader to be able to receive updates via OTA like a normal device?

Thanks!
[Lenovo P11] negrijp:
Same problem... can't find the original Chinese ROM, and the Motorola/Lenovo Rescue utility doesn't work (in fact it bricked the tablet).

Hello, everbody, i flash my LG V60VM to EU a12 (pol vers.) ,after patched modem_a still not posible make call, but internet via operator going great ? Any solution ? Thank you
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] JigsawMobile:
where you living, could you make calls vith verizon firmware ?

which modem version did you flashed ?

try select manully to 3G and make call
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] lukasbudai:
i live in Czech republic,, i try flashed every version from V1/V2/V3 ( V1 dont work- null-T-mobile, V3 work just data, or if try make call just changing network then hangs up.. But if crosflash to Android 11 EU version and flash modem_A to V2 i get 5G data conection and LTE data, but make call its not supported... If i try Original VM firmaware, its iposible doing anything becaose its not Verizon Simcard.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] lukasbudai:
No I followed here another guidelines, plus yours. A now everything work excellent with 5G network with Volte. I try today take my phone to Germany and see if going good roaming etc... I used V2. for A12 but I have A11. Just one think fingerprint I fixed, bud I think it's reaktive slowly ? It's because slow hardware?
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] lukasbudai:
In Germany don't connect to Volte, and why it's impossible make any calls without enable Volte ?
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] JigsawMobile:
Probably phone do not chamge to wcdma whe. Calling started
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] lukasbudai:
How get fixed? Do you have any ideas?
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] lukasbudai:
And one big problem, its why its not posible make call via 2G(EDGE), because in Europe still we have this brand. But if try call -> no ringing nothing after few minutus hangs up. No GSM call, just call over VoLte.. :/ . Have anybody any solution where or whats i must configurete for run normally call ?
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] Aroy48:
How did you flash. Kindly help with the link you followed to flash LG V60VM to EU please.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] JigsawMobile:
Hm for GSM have tp work because all bands in the world some.

Well tty this, get modem_a backup from verizon firmware and restore to EU rom device, or you can extract from verizon kdz modem_a and flash and see what will happens.

Did you try in europe with werizon firmware ?
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] lukasbudai:
Yes this been, first think whats i do. But in original version Verison, its not posible activate simcard (beacose i have T-Mobile.) Verizon write its not simcard from Verizon, then its imposible make any another call. ... Oh my god. I try restore original VM modem_a to EU-A12 and now works call in EDGE. :) but quality in EDGE its terrible.. i hear but he hear me really bad..
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] JigsawMobile:
working now 3G for you with WZ modem ?
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] lukasbudai:
3G my Operator in Czech Republic definitly cancel(many towers change 3G for 4G network.) this i dont know, but 2G for calling work, same for 4G/LTE + Volte work, and data same. But its any issue not brake modem_a from VM and add Suppport 5G brand ?
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] kingilein:
What happens if you just use the stock modem image from the EA-A12 firmware?

That makes the most sense, should actually work best.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] lukasbudai:
Then work just 4G/LT volte, but not call in 2G etc...
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] kingilein:
Then try

Hidden Code: *#*#4636#*#* --> Phone Information --> Set Preferred Network Type --> GSM/WCDMA/LTE (PRL) or (for 5G) NR/LTE/GSM/WCDMA
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] lukasbudai:
No Its change but after few minutes hangs up
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] lukasbudai:
No Its any issue rescue my fingerprint ? Because jigsaw : guide work for android A11 but Now if make test fingerprint ,stoped in fiesta part testing with resume failed...
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] kingilein:
It's strange that behavior... I have several North American V60s (AM, VM, TMO).

I crossflashed some on EA firmware, without problems.

The only thing I had to do to get VoLTE and WiFiCall was BL-Unlock, Root and /System RW.

You probably already know the following thread link as a starting aid (especially posting 3)...

https://xdaforums.com/t/v60-bootloader-unlock-and-magisk-root.4358785/

Oh yes, I forgot... I live in Germany...
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] lukasbudai:
I dont have problem with Volte, just with calling in 2G(EDGE) sometime its going great sometime just hangs up. But if i CROSS border to Germany with Czech simcard, then Its not active Volte, just data, And is posible send SMS. ..but no one SMS about roaming coming..
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] kingilein:
Ok, of course I can only speak for the German network. If it is absolutely necessary because there is no LTE network available, 2G also works. But that's the last conceivable solution for me if nothing else works. It's not 100% stable, sometimes there are dropped calls, but in the end it was somehow enough if nothing else was available. I use the O2 network here in Germany. Roaming settings and SMS functions can be fine-tuned in the hidden menu (*#546368#*600#) under Field Test --> IMS Setting. VoLTE and VoWiFi in the roaming environment can also be set there.

In the OP partition of the EA firmware, individual IMS settings are preset for all providers in Europe. This may also play a role in the quality of the telephone calls
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] lukasbudai:
And i just crossflash phone, no openboatloader. Use guide crossflash At600 version.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] lukasbudai:
Nope no call in romaning area, if I travel to another country from Czech then I can used just data not Volte, no voice call...why ? What's it's worng ? iits write" LTE call it's unsupported in global roaming. Reconnect to basic voice call.
[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] lukasbudai:
But if I change network to only wcdma then I have 3G+ call working, data working but sms not work write fail number 10...
[Google Pixel 7a] 2015Ducatimulti:
I`m curious who ordered, I ordered the Coral 7a, I love brighter color phones, and once I saw the Coral color I had to have it lol, I already have my tracking number and hopefully be delivered tomorrow.
[Google Pixel 7a] bobby janow:
What device are you coming from? Did you get any trade-in and what price did you pay?
[Google Pixel 7a] 2015Ducatimulti:
I have the new Sony Xepria 1 V on preorder, which just went on Pre-order today, and I`m using the S23 Ultra right now, I just find the S23 Ultra to Bulky for daily use, I love the camera`s...... but not very pocket friendly sometimes, I have used the Pixel 6a which I love the size of that, only thing I wish it had was wireless charging, now the 7a has wireless charging and more ram from 6gb to 8gb and the Tensor 2 chip, plus the Coral color looks beautiful, I didn`t do any trade-ins, with the Coral 7A and the free Series A buds and I added the coral case 29.99 and I paid for next day shipping 20.00 , total was $581.72, but once I get the 7A tomorrow, I`m selling my s23 ultra.
[Google Pixel 7a] bobby janow:
Great thanks. Let us know your review when you get it. I know that initially it will take a little time to settle but give us a running total as it were.
[Google Pixel 7a] nancymary101:
Ive been using OP 10 Pro and Im looking to upgrade this to the Pixel 7a. Ill mostly purchase the device by today or tomorrow!
[Google Pixel 7a] droid_<3er:
Just ordered one on Amazon - originally put in one for the coral 7A on the store but waiting 12 days for shipping is pretty stupid. I do miss the free buds and coral colour though; I should have the sea 7A by tomorrow.

Using the F3 right now, it's solid when with a ROM but power button has been acting up as of late. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't at least partly into the 7A to have the chance to rock an otterbox again lol
[Google Pixel 7a] TheMystic:
I would call that a 'switch', or downgrade. Certainly not upgrade.
[Google Pixel 7a] nancymary101:
Im kinda bored of the OnePlus 10 Pro and I dont have that budget for a Flagship Pixel device. I also want to experience the Stock Android everyone's been talking about so I thought why not?
[Google Pixel 7a] TheMystic:
You have fallen for the hype, unfortunately. But it is okay to experience different brands for fun. Enjoy your new phone! 🤩🤩
[Google Pixel 7a] nancymary101:
Okay, so do you rather suggest me waiting for the Pixel 8?
[Google Pixel 7a] bobby janow:
No, just enjoy your purchase. He's a Pixel hater (for the most part) and a Google foil. Don't let him get to you. Look at his previous posts and you'll see what I'm talking about. Almost every chance he gets it's bashing Pixel/Google. I think it's going to be a great phone and well under the cost of the P8. Let us know how you like it.

One quick example but there are a ton of them. He's certainly entitled to his own opinion but it gets a little much sometimes.

its here, love the color...... now to unlock bootloader and root it!!
[Google Pixel 7a] jmhalder:
Ordered mine, was supposed to be here today. My tracking shows:

Then updated a couple hours later to:

Pretty peeved with UPS. On the plus side, I have my Pixel 'A' Buds... that I don't care about. They also suggested that I update the address early today, but gave no way to do so. I'm sure it just didn't get on the truck, and this is them covering for it.

Edit:

UPS: The package doesn't have your street name or number, call the shipper

Google: Sure it does, and the most recent status is "On the way"

Great, maybe I'll get a phone... eventually. Way to harsh my vibe Google.
[Google Pixel 7a] 2015Ducatimulti:
That sucks, yeah funny you got the Pixel A buds first, I thought they were coming in the same box as the phone, but my Pixel A buds just shipped today separate, I`ll just turn around and re-sell them anyways, I was glad to get my 7A today since I sold my S23 ultra today.
[Google Pixel 7a] afiqq:
received my 7A 2 days after release. coming from an Asus Zenfone 8 that died on me with no warning. feels pretty good to go back to pixel phones!
[Google Pixel 7a] TheMystic:
Congratulations!
[Google Pixel 7a] TheMystic:
For sure, if you can wait AND if you want a Pixel only.
[Google Pixel 7a] bobby janow:
Damn that sucks. Any resolution yet?
[Google Pixel 7a] bobby janow:
How does it run so far? Battery looking good? Build quality? Come on man you've had it all of 12 hours now. lol
[Google Pixel 7a] 2015Ducatimulti:
It runs great, I haven't had any lag or stutters, I love it.... Battery is decent , I`m no power user, it`s very snappy with the 8gb ram compared to the 6gb the 6A , and love the coral color, I rooted it and using Magsik and AOSP MOD, repainter app., has wireless charging that the Pixel 6A didn`t have, I liked the pixel 7A enough , I actually sold my S23 ultra yesterday, but I do have the new Sony Xperia 1 V on preorder, in my opinion the Pixel 7A is a great buy!!

Edit: also it has face unlock, which the pixel 6A doesn`t, still has the plastic back, but doesn`t bother me.
[Google Pixel 7a] bobby janow:
Nice review, thanks. Keep this thread updated as you run it through the paces with anything good and bad in your experience. Then at some point later on a review of battery life.

edit: I see you posted this in another thread, I'll head over there instead.
[Google Pixel 7a] droid_<3er:
Got my 7A today. Not much to write home about, no surprises. I didn't feel the 120Hz>90Hz downgrade nearly as much as I thought I did. Camera is much better but that's not saying much considering how horrendous the F3's cameras are. Hopefully a stable PE ROM shows up soon, stock ROM is kinda empty on features.
[Google Pixel 7a] 2015Ducatimulti:
yeah usually the stock rom on the pixels don`t have lot of customzation and etc., that`s why I rooted my right away to be able to more custom changes to battery icon and colors, repainter app, I change the signal bars to the Xperia bars and etc. and swapped the recent and back buttons.
[Google Pixel 7a] danon.brown:
Got the 7a in coral. Coming from a P7. Had to have the coral color. Free case and pixel buds pro were nice perk as well. Trade in amounts were super low. I got $440 for a 6a going to the 7. This time 7 for a 7a was only $295.
[Google Pixel 7a] droid_<3er:
I was just a little taken aback, that's all. My last Google experience was with the Nexus 5 so it's been a hot minute.

On the F3 I used pretty slim AOSP ROMs, so I was surprised that a lot of the common features I assumed to be baseline are not actually so. Like DT2W (I guess 7a has single tap to wake), pure black mode, etc.
[Google Pixel 7a] bobby janow:
Why did you trade in your P7 for the 7a?
[Google Pixel 7a] danon.brown:
for the coral color. Google also had a higher trade in value for the 7. Of the other phones i have z flip3 , fold 3&4, iphone 12, the 7 had the highest value.
[Google Pixel 7a] DoobyDroid:
Any news on when the 7a will be added to the android 14 beta list seems odd it's not available already seeing as it's same cpu as in other 7 series
[Google Pixel 7a] jmhalder:
Still waiting. Despite UPS insisting that they straight up didn't have an street name or address, and nothing available in their manifest for it... It's apparently on a truck for delivery today. Gotta love having 2-day air, and then being late and not even bothering to try and deliver on the weekend. I will presumably get it this evening.
[Google Pixel 7a] Slim2none4u:
Got mine today. All rooted with AOSPMods installed working great!
[Google Pixel 7a] ixon2001:
Had mine couple of days now last phone i had from Google was the Nexus 6P, i bought this as a backup/ work phone as my main phone is the S23 Ultra.

The Pixel 7a has got me thinking do i really need to spend over thousand pounds for the latest & greatest, when something for less than £500 can now be this decent.
[Google Pixel 7a] nishaddesilva:
How is 7A battery life compared to 7? Does anybody know?
[Google Pixel 7a] danon.brown:
my 7a seems to be better than my 7. My 7 loses at least 15 percent idle overnight. Daily use the 7a seems to last longer under normal conditions.

Is anyone using magisk + systemless hosts with adaway on the 7a?

I just got mine today and rooted it, but I'm a bit concerned about the f2fs bug causing lockups
[Google Pixel 7a] the_not_so_dark_knight:
I just got my 7a here in the US from T-mobile for free with a Pixel 5 trade-in (great offer btw!). But it turns out that the OEM unlocking is greyed out. This is my first time getting a phone from a carrier - does anyone know how I can get around this?

I ordered my Pixel 7a (Charcoal) just now. Returning to Pixel after Nexus series. Coming from iPhone 11 Pro after my phone gave up on me.
[Google Pixel 7a] purgy:
Do you have a sim inserted? If yes, try taking it out, if no try putting it in
[Google Pixel 7a] Saswata Chakraborty:
Been using the device since May 12 and extremely happy with the overall performance. With my usage, I easily get a SOT of 5-6 hours with a standby time of 2 days. My only complain is extremely slow charging on Samsung 25w PD charger (Google 33w is no different) and heating issue even on normal web browsing or texting.
[Google Pixel 7a] Saswata Chakraborty:
This device has a weird issue of OEM unlocking option not working. The workaround is to make sure your device is up to date and then factory reset the device and OEM unlocking option will start working.
[Google Pixel 7a] purgy:
I just skipped past the login stuff on first boot, and did the ota update before I unlocked the bootloader, as I'd already downloaded the latest factory image for init_boot.

I didn't have a sim in either, and it all went fine, but I've seen people mention the sim (or lack of) causing issues.
[Google Pixel 7a] jmitchell513:
I am honestly disappointed in Face ID and the fingerprint scanner. I got the phone half off unlocked through work and I’m selling it and haven’t had it 3 days now. The biggest issue that drives me crazy is the speaker phone. I was pumped to have dual speaker speaker phone and the top goes in and out working half the time.. Google support was a joke.

Just ordered the coral version ... going from and Samsung A71 with as Galaxy watch 5 to this phone ... they have sent then case, but the phone will be in 2 weeks
[Google Pixel 7a] BujangTan:
How good is the battery performance over a month of usage? Does the high refresh rate significantly impact the battery life? I love higher refresh rate devices but they tend to take up a lot of battery which is a bit disappointing especially when Im forced to switch to 60hz inorder to save battery life.
[Google Pixel 7a] drchips42:
Just got my 7a, the refresh rate does not effet the battery so it seams.. however its only been a few days. there are a few things that bug me... the power button is in the wrong place I've come from a Samsung A71, so my 7a looks like a toy phone lol Ive put Nova on , I paid for prime version years ago ... it just looks so much better with my " old " desktop, cleaner ... just have to set up everything again ... bank stuff etc all fun
[Google Pixel 7a] Danny 0311:
I've had the phone for about 2 weeks, and I'm using all the default settings. I still have about 65% battery left when I charge it overnight.
[Google Pixel 7a] Danny 0311:
I bought the black edition, and I'm very happy with it. Google got it right.👍

Update : the screen does not pick up my touches every so often , its a bug its normal ( stock rom ) Fingerprint does not work all the time , this is for unlocking the phone and apps that use the fingerprint... I had added as many as i canfor the same finger ....
[Google Pixel 7a] st0nedpenguin:
If you're using a screen protector there's an option in the Developer Options that boosts the sensitivity of the screen that's intended for use with screen protectors. Even if you don't have one on it may be worth checking out.

[G1 Android Development] Autarkis:
Unfortunately, I upgraded to RC30 within the first few hours of having received my G1. I know that there's nothing that can be done for me to get back to the root. :(

However, all the genius minds have come together here, and so I ask... how do you rate my chances of getting root somewhere in the Future? Is it possible that Google might make liberty accessible its customers again? Is it likely that a different way / exploit will be found?

Thanks,

Autarkis
[G1 Android Development] JesusFreke:
Your best bet is probably to sell the G1 and get a devphone. Depending on how long ago you bought your G1, you may still be able to return it. If you paid full price for it, you can return it for up to 30 days (the 14 days thing is only when you buy it with a contract for the reduced price).

But if you didn't pay full price for it, it would be better to sell it on ebay.
[G1 Android Development] jashsu:
First, you should be aware that the decision to lock down a phone is solely in the hands of the implementer, in this case T-Mo/htc. That said, JesusFreke is right; if you want a rooted G1 at this point, buying a Dev Phone 1 may be the best bet. For the sake of argument here are also some potential avenues to root in the future:

I. Leak of a pre-RC30 DREAIMG.NBH. This is in my opinion the most promising and likely way to root a RC30 phone. DREAIMG.NBH files are likely kept by htc's regional repair centers. Unfortunately it's also likely htc has internally updated the DREAIMG.NBH files to RC30. If a htc employee or licensed repair facility kept a copy of say the RC19 version, it would be instant root for all.

II. Leak of the htc private key. This is the key used to sign the manifests in update.zip and likely also to sign DREAIMG.NBH. Having it would allow you (or more likely JF) to resign modified Androids. Quite unlikely though as corporations keep their private keys under lock and key.

III. Brute force crack of the private key. Probably won't happen in our lifetimes, let alone the obsolescence period of G1.

IV. Discovery of a new exploit, or introduction of new exploit in a future firmware. This is always a possibility, but there is no way to tell when if at all it would happen.
[G1 Android Development] Vilko:
Hi.

where is DREAIMG.NBH's signature placed? did'nt find any in this files..

Please don't laugh since this is literally new territory to me...

You cannot downgrade between binaries.
