[OnePlus 9 Pro] DaveImagery:
Starting the update to 13 process and Rooting hopefully. I was wondering, did anybody observe some kind of warning in red print, at the beginning of the 13 update? I saw it only for a brief second. I think it started out by saying "in 9 days....." no idea if that's right or not. Just kicking myself I hit "resume" before reading it.

I should mention I'm coming from stock, I used the MSM tool to restore to stock image.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] mulletcutter:
I think it says in 9 days it will update automatically
[OnePlus 9 Pro] TheGhost1951:
There is an app in the play store that allows customization of status bar....
[OnePlus 9 Pro] DaveImagery:
Oh okay thank you
[OnePlus 9 Pro] DaveImagery:
Okay I seem to be having trouble getting it to root. I used the same method I always do, via magisk recommended method

Enabled USB debugging

Unlocked Bootloader, rebooted back into system

Signed into Google account, Installed Magisk APK made sure no security options set (i.e. pin/fingerprint)

Rebooted the phone into Download mode

Used the MSM Tool to readback the boot_a and boot_b images.

Transferred the boot_a image to device

Patched with Masik, copied now patched boot image to pc

Fastboot flash boot (patched image)

Done it numerous times before, but my phone is hanging at the OnePlus logo. Should I have flashed the "boot_b" image?
[OnePlus 9 Pro] DaveImagery:
Okay I think I figured out what I did wrong. I forgot to flash the patched boot image to both slots. OMG what a moron FacePalm
[OnePlus 9 Pro] mulletcutter:
I have not rooted a phone since the n6 and these steps I swear have gotten more then the gold card for mytouch3g
[OnePlus 9 Pro] DaveImagery:
Has anyone successfully rooted their device with the TMO 13 on it? Attempt 2 just failed. This time I made sure to flash the patched boot image to both slots.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] TheGhost1951:
At least the OP9P is not as big a hassle as say for example the Samsung Galaxy S20 series phones. That is why I switched to the OnePlus.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Masterchief87:
Have you tried using twrp to flash magisk?
[OnePlus 9 Pro] DaveImagery:
It's been so long, I don't remember how to flash TWRP. I wonder what would have changed, that Magisk's recommended method no longer works?
[OnePlus 9 Pro] TheGhost1951:
System up and running, adb reboot bootloader. Once there, have twrp.img in platform tools folder and magisk.zip in phone internal storage. Start a command prompt from platform tools folder then, execute command fastboot boot twrp.img. that will temp boot you into twrp. Once there tap install magisk.zip. then reboot to system and open magisk and update magisk if requested. You should see that you are rooted. As an added assurance top right install and on next window tap on direct install. Done
[OnePlus 9 Pro] DaveImagery:
Okay I've done that. I've temp booted into TWRP, but I can't find the Magisk zip file, and install fails if I try it via USB drive. Phone need to be decrypted or something? I have no pin or any screen lock set.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] TheGhost1951:
You have to transfer the Magisk.zip to the phone internal storage using your PC. Then you should be able to see it to install it.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] DaveImagery:
I did, I transfered it to internal storage via pc. I seem to remember it being necessary to wipe user date once in TWRP, so that files are not encrypted. I'm not seeing any directories once in TWRP, that I can via pc when I transferred the zip
[OnePlus 9 Pro] DaveImagery:
I think you may have missed a step there in your OP
[OnePlus 9 Pro] TheGhost1951:
I will check, which step are you referring to?
[OnePlus 9 Pro] DaveImagery:
Well it's more likely I screwed something up. Okay what I've done so far.

Phone is updated to 13

Bootloader is unlocked

latest twrp img is on pc

Magisk zip file was placed in download folder on device

I temp boot TWRP, but it's not showing download folder
[OnePlus 9 Pro] TheGhost1951:
Does it show any folders in twrp in internal storage?
[OnePlus 9 Pro] DaveImagery:
says 0MB next to internal storage, like TWRP cannot access it

it does, but like root system folders. I cant access them when connecting via pc
[OnePlus 9 Pro] TheGhost1951:
I have had that to happen when my system was corrupted after flashing a firmware via MSM Tool and it didn't show folder in internal storage. Let's hope that is not the case. Boot normal, set an easy to remember 4 digit pin like 1111. The will give full authorization to decrypt storage in recovery. Then temp boot twrp and it should ask for pin, enter it and see what you get for internal storage.....🤞🤞🤞
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Masterchief87:
That is all correct, except you can just flash the magisk apk now. It doesn't have to be a zip file.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] TheGhost1951:
He is not seeing any folders in internal storage. May be an encryption issue. His is going to setup a pin for decryption authorization. To see if that works.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] TheGhost1951:
I will be offline til later, heading to church for Wednesday night Bible study!
[OnePlus 9 Pro] DaveImagery:
When I try to flash via USB thumb drive. I get
[OnePlus 9 Pro] TheGhost1951:
I have never tried it from USB!
[OnePlus 9 Pro] DaveImagery:
Well at the moment it's not working via any method
[OnePlus 9 Pro] TheGhost1951:
I'm not on A13, I don't install twrp I just use temp twrp. But since twrp is booting up, if you want to try to install twrp, temp boot twrp, tap on advanced, tap on "flash current twrp" and it will install twrp. That is unless it throws errors too. If that is the case, your system I suspect is corrupt.

[OnePlus 9 Pro] DaveImagery:
Thank you for all your assistance. I just tried that. It just bootloops after installing. I'm done for now with 13, going back to 12. At least until I see others have done it successfully.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] TheGhost1951:
Sorry you have been having so much trouble. I can't tell you how many times I have had to MSM back to stock even though I use nothing but stock firmware. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Masterchief87:
Did you have the EU or Global A13 firmware installed previously, or had you already been on the T-Mobile firmware? I've had some issues with TWRP not being able to read the data partition or my USB drive, and I also had some issues with fastboot and USB drivers when I first updated from 12 to 13. Edit: These issues were with the Global & EU firmware. I haven't attempted to unlock my bootloader, flash TWRP, or root on the T-Mobile A13 update yet.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] DaveImagery:
I was on stock US T-Mobile A12. I'm pretty sure my drivers are fine, as I'm able to connect via fastboot, and through Qualcom EDL mode. You can see in the pictures above, TWRP showed root system files, but nothing in terms of user data, so putting the Magisk zip file in the download folder via pc didn't help, because TWRP doesn't seem to have access to it. And I can only assume flashing the zip file from my OTG thumb drive also wouldn't work becuase TWRP doesn't have file access. I remember back in the day, we would have to also flash verity_decrypt.zip along with twrp, but I don't know it that's still the case now. I've just reverted back to A12 and rooted it without issue. So it's something different with A13 is all I can guess.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Masterchief87:
As far as the issue you had with TWRP, I can tell you that the TWRP for this phone has always been a bit wonky. I remember sometimes having to reboot recovery 3 or 4 times to get it to read my USB drive. It always worked eventually though, and I used it successfully to backup and restore both the EU and Global versions of OOS13, and to flash Magisk and Xposed. It also failed to read the internal storage a couple times. Im pretty sure I found a reliable way of getting it to work but I can't remember exactly what it was.

I also started having all kinds of issues with fastboot as soon as I updated to OOS 13 and it ended up being because my computer doesn't have a USB 2.0 port. ADB worked fine, MSM worked fine, some fastboot commands worked fine and others didn't work at all. After a little bit of research I found out there were two things I could try. I could either go buy a USB hub with a 2.0 port, or I could edit some system variables in windows 10 to make one of my existing 3.0 ports work. I went with the 2nd option since it didn't require me to drive to the store for a USB hub and it worked.

There's another thread on how to bootloader unlock and root the t-mobile variant, and allegedly you can't permanently install TWRP on the T-Mobile firmware. If you're running the T-Mobile firmware you have to temp-boot TWRP via fastboot, so if trying to permanently install TWRP caused a bootloop that's probably why.

I don't have time to go through the whole rigmarole of backing up and restoring everything right now, but I'll try to give it a shot here in a couple days if nobody beats me to it. Maybe I'll cruise through it with no issues or maybe I'll run into the same problems you did: we'll see I guess.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] TheGhost1951:
Hay masterchief87, I have successfully installed TWRP on the OP9P on A11 and À12. Currently I no longer do that. I prefer to temp boot twrp to do my business so that I still have access to fastbootd mode. Apparently, there is something squirrelly going on with A13 TMO firmware. My phone is model LE2127 TMO and I have always run stock except for once when I bricked I had to use the India firmware (another nightmare). But for the most part I have found TMO firmware to be solid. May the Lord bless you and family!
[OnePlus 9 Pro] DaveImagery:
Yeah it wasn't until I actually flashed TWRP, that I remembered it doesn't play well with the T-Mobile variant. Funny how fast you forget this stuff. :)

I'm curious what has changed with TMO's A13, that neither method of rooting works.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] mulletcutter:
Nova still laggy for anyone else?
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Masterchief87:
I just noticed you're using a different TWRP than me. If you're using the official TWRP for this phone it hasn't been updated since android 11. You need to go to the unofficial unified TWRP thread which has builds for both android 12 & 13, and download the newest android 13 TWRP build.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] DaveImagery:
By George you're right! Oh boy what a goof. I'll make a mental note of that, but as it turns out the problem was a bad USB cable. After two more failed attemps I tried another cable, and was able to root no problem. Thank you for your input.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Masterchief87:
At least you figured it out. I'm glad you got it working.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] DaveImagery:
I did notice something curious. This last install of A13, the finger print animation sound has changed. I see in settings where it can be toggled on or off, but not changed. Weird.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] TheGhost1951:
Mankind needs to learn to be thankful for what he has and not what he wants.... Just thinking he! 🙂
[OnePlus 9 Pro] SkOrPn:
After 4 pages I haven't read anyone talking about or reviewing the actual F.27 software, lol.

I got the update maybe a week ago here in New Mexico and right away noticed that network searches are far slower, take far far longer to complete. I mean everything from checking for play store updates, opening apps take 5 times longer to populate information such as banking apps, fast food apps, everything. All browsers now take 5 to 10 times longer to get results. Gmail, outlook, cloud storage apps, everything so far takes longer to get to any results.

But the actual performance of the OS seems to have improved greatly, apps open/close faster, etc. So not sure what's going on. And I also have the wrong signal icons as well but that's moot.

Do we really need to factory reset just to see if that fixes these issues? If so, what is currently the best way to restore everything? Do you sign in as a new device or do you tell Google to restore your data? It's been probably 6 years or so since I have felt the need to factory reset. I never factory reset my Note 8 until I sold it, I didn't do so with my S20 Ultra through all of the updates and neither of them ever seemed to have issues with updates, although it did die after a year of stellar use, hence why I'm on the OP9P. So, are my issues the type of issues that get solved by starting from scratch?

Any advice would be appreciated. I don't need root, just a smooth running and fast network A13 would be nice. Thank you
[OnePlus 9 Pro] TheGhost1951:
If rooted, use Swift Backup to backup apps and app data with SMS messages and call logs, wallpapers and wifi networks to boot! 👍
[OnePlus 9 Pro] SkOrPn:
Yeah, a factory reset did in fact fix my issues. Now it runs as it should have all along, especially the battery performance. Thank you
[OnePlus 9 Pro] DaveImagery:
I see T-Mobile rolled out a new update. It's been a while, is there an easy way to update, and keep root?

Hi Ihave s21 Ultra Version SM-G998U I need To Change SM-G998U1 I Can Change without Risk Loss File Modem What Deferent Between SM-G998U VS SM-G998U1 And I can Received Update Automated In still With rom SM-G998U
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] V0latyle:
You cannot flash your device with firmware meant for another model; this will likely result in your device becoming inoperable.

Why are you trying to do this?

The difference between the two is the G998U is the branded US carrier version (specific to Verizon/ATT/TMobile/etc) while the G998U1 is the unbranded, unlocked version that can be used on any US carrier.

If you're trying to unlock your bootloader, this won't help you.

i did it on my G998U att i was trying to change csc to rom G998U1 xaa lost boot and my device keep off i think i lost boot i will send it to samsung for repaire odin and chimera tool can't repair it wont help anymore so becarfule

sziasztok a szüleimnek adtam a külföldön vásárolt USA sm-g998u/ds telefont, de Magyarországon használnák és szeretnénk ha magyar menü lenne, mi lenne a megoldás? A telefon Magyarországon van és most a magyar szolgáltatással működik. Nagyon szépen köszönjük.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Oki:
I converted my factory unlocked SM-G998W (Canadian) to SM-G998U1 using ODIN. Actually, I have changed between G998W<->G998U1 multiple times. And now I am using the One UI 6.0 Beta 1 that only works on top of a U1 firmware in the US.

As long as your device is not locked by the provider, it should allow the change to flash any U1 firmware using ODIN. Just try to use a different SIM from a different provider to check whether your device is actually unlocked. In such a case, there shouldn't be any problem in flashing U1.
[Google Pixel 7] danicosas:
Hello everyone,

Do you know if for the pixel 7, currently it is possible to have the combination of a custom rom + the stock camera in some way not too complicated?

Thanks, I read you!
[Google Pixel 7] hungragezone:
U can download stock camera app in Google play

lol
[Google Pixel 7] danicosas:
Oh really? That easy? hahaha

Installing the stock camera of Xiaomi on a Xiaomi phone with custom rom is much more complicated.

And would it be 100% compatible with the custom ROM?

Finally, what custom ROM do you recommend for the pixel 7?

Thank you !
[Google Pixel 7] tutibreaker:
pixel phone has pure android, most roms are aosp based so same android but with more or less customization or features
[Google Pixel 7] hungragezone:
I understand that, I'm Xiaomi user for along time

Almost Any things in stock android of pixel can be downloaded from play store

I only try crdroid with p7, great rom, alot of custom feature, great battery life. But it still has some small bug that affect daily use experience.

So I fall back to stock and wait for crdroid become official for p7 like p7 pro
[Google Pixel 7] danicosas:
My question is because I have just had 4 Xiaomis in a row.

In all of them, the first thing I did was unlock them and install the Xiaomi.eu rom.

With this rom it had much less bloatware, a little more privacy (services blocked in the background), native call recording, and some more features. All this without sacrificing camera stock.

I thought that with the Pixel you could do something similar with a rom like Lineage or another similar one.
[Google Pixel 7] danicosas:
Ah perfect, this can give me a bit of clues where to go :)
[Google Pixel 7] tutibreaker:
well forget all about the memeui right now, pixel phone is another, bugless and better world
[Google Pixel 7] TheMystic:
I don't know about Pixel, but it is not that simple in general. Some apps rely on certain frameworks or modules which are present in the Stock ROM but not in custom ROMs.
[Google Pixel 7] hungragezone:
But it's true with pixel !
[Google Pixel 7] danicosas:
I finally installed the lineage rom for the p7 and installed the camera app from the play store. everything is going perfectly. Thanks to all for the help !
[Google Pixel 7] luckychukiye:
Thanks!

I Plan to do this on m Pixel when I get it soon!

How is the quality?
[Google Pixel 7] ChillDuder:
is this then the current cam version? because from other phones of course you just and really old gcam version in gplay.

does it have all the new features like cinema mode etc.?

that would be a surprise to me, if it is almost the same feature level like on stock.

Have you tried using a registry editor and changing the following line?

Navigate to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Cabfile\Shell\Open\command and change the default value to wceload.exe "%1" /nodelete - there is a space after the .exe and before the /nodelete here
[Shift General] Abu Shahad:
i'm using the original rom i haven't changed it
[Shift General] Abu Shahad:
thank you

but how to access the rigistry, as i mentioned i'm not able to install any software

regards
[Shift General] deadnex:
First of all, make sure SnapVue is connected to Vista through USBtool and that Windows Mobile Device Center is connected.

On Vista side - download and install CERegEditor. Open it - navigate to the "tools" menu and select "unlock registry". You are now able to edit your WM registry from the Vista side. If you get any warnings on WM side just press "Yes".

Hope this is helpful.

However, if you didn't follow a guide on how to unlock your shift to full WM I would recommend that you read one of the following threads:

[Magisk] surajpai524:
I think it's because of Magisk Bootloop protector module. Something is wrong with the settings of that module which might be triggering to disable all other modules. Please check the GitHub repo of the module or post a issue there so someone can give you more info on that.
[Magisk] Nergal di Cuthah:
Actually sounds like bootloop protector is doing its job, one of your modules is incompatible with magisk 26. One by one activate them and restart til you find the on that trips. (if one does early I'd still check the others because it might be multiple with such a large list of modules).

실제로 bootloop 프로텍터가 작동하는 것처럼 들리는데 모듈 중 하나가 magisk 26과 호환되지 않습니다. 모듈을 하나씩 활성화하고 해당 트립을 찾을 때까지 다시 시작하십시오. (하나가 일찍 수행하는 경우 모듈 목록이 너무 많을 수 있으므로 다른 항목을 계속 확인합니다.)
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] mm_hockey:
Greetings,

I bought a refurbed Fold 3 and love it!

However, it is stuck on Android 12 (Last security update is Sept 26, 2022) and will not update.

Here are some details:

It boots up with an ATT logo

I use US Mobile's Verizon plan

Every time I try and update, I get the following message: "Software Update Interrupted."

Some more details:

CSC F926UOYN2DV14

CP F926USQS2DV14

MODEL SM-F926U/DS

I was thinking of using Odin to manually update the phone, but I don't know what firmware to use.

So, I was hoping I could get some guidance:

Any ideas on why it won't update?

If I use Odin, what firmware should I install?

Thanks for your help!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] mm_hockey:
Problem solved!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I took out my US Mobile sim card and thew in an old T-Mobile sim card and it updated the phone to the current version.

I then rebooted and inserted my US Mobile card and it works!!!!

Weird... but it worked.
[General Topics] V0latyle:
I see people frequently using "brick" as an umbrella term for their device not working the way they want it to, whether this means bootlooping, crashing, failure to boot, etc.

I think it's important to clarify that the term comes from the saying "as useful as a brick", where a device is rendered to no more than an expensive paperweight.

Your device isn't bricked unless you are unable to do ANYTHING - i.e., display doesn't turn on, no response to USB, completely dead and dark.

If your device crashes while running, it's not a brick.

If your device crashes while booting, it's not a brick.

If you get an error message, it's not a brick.

If your device doesn't boot but ends up in bootloader or recovery mode, it's not a brick.

If you're able to send fastboot commands / go into recovery / use Odin, it's not a brick.

If you run into a problem, don't say your device is bricked unless it is COMPLETELY DEAD and doesn't respond to anything that you do.

Describe your problem in detail, including what happened to get to that point, and anything that you have tried to do to fix it. Remember Rule 3:

And, don't forget to read the Guide to Forum Etiquette.

Hope this helps.
[General Topics] TheMystic:
The above two scenarios is what we call 'Soft Brick'.

This is called 'Hard Brick'.

So you may consider rephrasing your post.
[General Topics] simplepinoi177:
I kind of was going to comment this and on this....

It gets to murky gray area for most new, amateur, & some novice users when there's the term "soft brick" and that's when they may start to not differentiate circumstances when using the term "brick" -- starting to include everything under the term.

An explanation on the term "soft brick" and/or even the plea/argument to faze out the word because of it (not my stance, personally) can even be made....

P.S. A thought; you might even consider alluding to the also similar concept of "expensive paperweight" when explaining where the basis of the term "brick" came from...
[General Topics] V0latyle:
I won't, because instead of "brick" it's simple enough to use something that is more accurate and descriptive: "crash", "boot failure", etc.

I explained that "brick" means your device is literally as useful as a smart device as a brick would be.

We can use separate terms without getting complicated.
