i patched my AP with magisk. Its the same thing?

When trying to disable vbmeta fastboot says: “—disable-verity: unknown parameter” or something like. How can i solve
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] lionleggend:
@Zillion ok i tried with cmd instead of powershell and worked, vbmeta flashed and device rebooted into system nicely.

Now if i try flashing your zip into twrp, should work?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Zillion:
Everything should work fine as long as fbe is disabled, if you're a T220 user you can run the following to enable touch while in twrp: ``adb shell mount -t ext4 /dev/block/mapper/vendor /vendor``.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] lionleggend:
Yeah, but yesterday the zip caused me a infinite boot animation after rebooting to system (stock os), (ap was already patched with magisk), now i executed vbmeta disable with parameters and stock rom vbmeta as you said in first post, should the fbe disabler work now?

In the twrp terminal or via ADB cmd on pc?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] punteruk:
hi

I haven't modified the tablet yet (just unlocked it) so do I need the vbmeta and if so how do I find it?

@Talich52 thanks for the info....I read that thread further and you said:

'you are writing in the wrong topic, questions about TWRP 13 android, and this topic is 11 android'

my tablet is on android 13 so is that vbmeta still applicable for my tablet?

cheers
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Talich52:
Yes, applicable, since the files are there specifically for android 13 :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] punteruk:
hi

managed to install TWRP using

odin4 -a TWRP_v1.1_gta7lite_vbmeta.tar

then I installed the fbe_disabler using TWRP and did a Wipe > Format Data

BUT when it boots I just get a black screen with Samsung Galaxy in the middle??? :confused:

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] tom.android:
Upload extract "recovery.IMG.lz4" from AP framework file with zip utility. I will patch it. Please tell its model also.

But you can use your TWRP's fastboot mode installs GSI. (You have installed already.) I'm not use TWRP but used FastbootD instead.

You must decide to select only TWRP or fastbootD .

Use fastboot mode of TWRP is very long story,and you must have usb otg for mouse because TWRP of T225 now not supported touch screen that why I don't used TWRP.

Example use TWRP for GSI installation.

Hello, did anyone find a way to fix /data invalid parameter in TWRP running stock ONEUI? Every time I flash vbmeta there is no change and if I flash fbe disabler then my tablet is stuck at Samsung logo. How am I able to make a /data backup and restore if the TWRP method won't work?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] tom.android:
You can use this TWRP for backup or TWRP's fastboot (,or flash vbmeta) ( after FBE flashing but data didn't encrypted ) but when restore Sam firmware (required encrypted data).

Solution is try to uses another backup tool such as "https://github.com/AndDiSa/android_backup_project". No way to backup or restore ONE UI with this TWRP because you must flash OneUi's Super Partition first after came back from TWRP.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Zillion:
Did you format data after flashing the fbe disabler?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] jirifait33:
yes

Don't try
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] SykoraLukas:
There’s a bug - recovery settings keep resetting to default after each boot.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Zillion:
It's because TWRP saves settings to internal storage by default, and since you're probably encrypted it won't save settings.

Edit: fixed in https://github.com/gta7lite/teamwin...mmit/feb3ada6e538de41034c303071409c7ef257c3a8
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] SykoraLukas:
Is there a way to decrypt stock ONEUI? Fbe disabler makes the device bootloop.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Zillion:
The only fix would be adding decryption or using cache for settingsstorage

[General Topics] TheMystic:
Can someone provide specific answers to these questions:

1. Why do OEMs impose a waiting period to provide bootloader unlock codes?

My guess: To allow sufficient time for the return window to close (to prevent abuse of newly purchased phones).

2. Some OEMs require you to login with an account to apply for the bootloader unlock code. Why?

One has to create an account with them for this purpose. Simply providing an email address for receiving the unlock code isn't sufficient. What is the need for all this when one can easily provide fake information for this purpose?

3. Some OEMs (like Xiaomi) even require you to have your SIM installed during both the application process as well as during the unlock process. Why?

My guess: To address the issue of fake info provided in point 2 above.

OEMs want to ensure that warranty is denied to those who choose to unlock their bootloader. But why do they need personally identifiable information like phone numbers for this process?
[General Topics] TheMystic:
In this context, which brand or phone is easiest to root in 2023?​

PREFERENCES

1. No need to apply to OEM to get bootloader unlock code.

2. OEM provides official source to download latest ROM.

3. Custom Recovery available.

4. Warranty won't be void if phone is unlocked/ rooted.

I would prefer to know about phones that have launched in 2022 and later. Not interested in older models because their batteries would be in bad shape (even if brand new) as they have been unused for long periods of time.
[General Topics] TheMystic:
Most OEMs do not provide an official site to download the full ROM. Few that do, like OnePlus, take a very long time to make the current version available.

For my OnePlus 8T, the officially available ROM for download is the stable build of Android 12, which is almost a year old now. As far as I have read, downgrading from Android 13 is a complicated process involving 3rd party tools.

I like the magisk patched boot image process to root the device. But this requires the boot image of the current installation. Which in turn requires the full ROM, which may not be available from official sources.

For OnePlus phones, there is the Oxygen Updater app that can be used to download the full ROM, but this is downloading it from an unofficial source. I think many users are unaware of this.

On top of that, it requires the payload dumper program to extract boot image. This program always has multiple flags on VirusTotal, making it questionable and risky.

Basically, one has to use several potentially unsafe tools and sources to extract the boot image of the currently installed OS, and then patch it with Magisk.

My question is:

Is there a safe (and simple) way to extract the required files (boot image, recovery image, etc.) from the phone directly, instead of relying on potentially unsafe tools and sources for this process?​
[General Topics] Guan Yu:
Whaat , payload dumper is just a python script isnt it ?

GitHub - vm03/payload_dumper: Android OTA payload dumper

Android OTA payload dumper. Contribute to vm03/payload_dumper development by creating an account on GitHub.

[General Topics] TheMystic:
I'm referring to the program that is often linked in online tutorials. I think it is this one here:

payload_dumper-win64.zip | Tool by geminids14 for Utilities

Extract payload.bin in xiaomi weekly build zip for MI A1

androidfilehost.com

There could be other links too. But every file I have tried has had several antivirus engines flagging them on VirusTotal.
[General Topics] Guan Yu:
Then why did you use that ???
[General Topics] TheMystic:
Where did I say that I used it?

I haven't used this method yet because I don't trust the program.
[General Topics] V0latyle:
ADB can be used to dump partition images....if you have root. Unfortunately, without root, this isn't possible. This is why, short of using a dangerous exploit, rooting a device generally requires patching an external image and flashing it to the device. Alternatively, a custom recovery can be used with ADB to dump partitions.

If it were possible to dump images in bootloader/fastboot, this would simplify things, but alas, it is not.

As for Payload Dumper, it is not unsafe simply because you get a hit on VirusTotal. The source is available to view at Payload Dumper on Github. For the sake of argument, Magisk gets a hit on VT as well:

View attachment 5891393
[General Topics] TheMystic:
From what I'm reading on the internet, custom recoveries are not readily available for many devices, including OnePlus, and the magisk patched boot image is the way to go in such cases.

Since OEMs aren't providing an official link to their latest ROMs, one has to rely on unofficial sources for the same. And as mentioned in the OP, use questionable 3rd party tools to extract the boot image.

On your link, there is this:

'Download payload_dumper.py, update_metadata_pb2.py and requirements.txt'.

What is this? Can we create our own payload dumper program without using the one I linked in comment #3?
[General Topics] V0latyle:
Well...there's quite a few OEMs who don't really support development of any kind, and a few that even violate the GPL by refusing to make their kernel source available.

In theory, if the kernel source is available (including the driver binaries), building TWRP for that specific device should be possible. But, most OEMs are lazy and just post the "main" source for the runtime kernel itself, as used across their entire product line.

Those are Python entities. As @Guan Yu pointed out, it's a Python script, so you'd need Python on your machine as well as rudimentary knowledge of how to use it.

It should absolutely be possible to build it into a standalone application. PixelFlasher is written in Python, but does not require a Python environment; @badabing2003 has done a great job of building a standalone program that has only one external requirement - the SDK Platform Tools to provide the ADB interface. Maybe he would be willing to help build Payload Dumper into a standalone GUI application as well?
[General Topics] badabing2003:
I believe this Go version is bundled as executable.

If it does not do the job, it shouldn't be too much effort to bundle the Python version into an executable.

Good find, thanks bud.

I have a couple of FireHD tablets (one 10", one 8", both 11th gen) that have been updated to the latest OTA unfortunately before I ran the Fire Toolkit, but which nevertheless work ok with the Play Store and other Google services.

However, one thing that fails consistency is logging in within an app using my Google account (e.g. a game with a cloud save). I press the button, the current app loses focus, but nothing comes up.

Is this a known issue? Is there a fix?
