This was built using Tasker but I'll share the extracted APK from App Factory below so it can be used without Tasker.

This is similar to ADB App Control for PC in its functioning. It has several executable commands that can be performed on applications in batches. Current commands are: Install, Enable, Disable, Uninstall, Uninstall Updates, and Reinstall. Requires ADB WiFi access to use. ROOT NOT REQUIRED. Can perform all commands on system applications.

In a nutshell, it makes debloating and re-bloating automated and quick. Can filter applications to show: System, User, Enable, Disabled, and Uninstalled. Also can combine filters and color code applications by their current state. Recently added the ability to save custom lists for quick recall of certain applications.

No experience with ADB necessary.

If you're not sure what uninstalling or disabling system applications can do to your device, you should probably not use this. I take no responsibility for any software issues that occur as a result from using this tool.

Hi All

Hope everyone is well, just sold my oneplus 10T 5G 16GB ram - 256Gb storage after 3 months and lost almost £300 in value as it sold for roughly half its new value what with ebay fees etc

Happy to take the loss to see the back of it quite honestly going back to my old oneplus 7T which still works perfectly and i can EDL reflash to my hearts content with no issues.

Regret buying the 10T in the first place but i had no idea oneplus / oppo merged and EDL msmtool would be with held from us all

Will never buy another oneplus device ever again so when my 7T dies thats it for me will go to a different phone maker.
[OnePlus 10T 5G] Zwijam_Dywan:
I got same feelings. When my 6t battery and USB port started to get a lot worse I wanted to buy new 10T, but after doing a lot of research I realised that it's a bad idea because the first thing I do with the phone is getting custom rom and getting rid of Google malware. Which looks like to be impossible with 10T. So instead I fixed my 6T for like 40 pounds and it works like new. When it eventually dies I don't think I will go for oneplus again unless something change by the time.
[OnePlus 10T 5G] TheMystic:
Which phone today is best and easiest for rooting?
[OnePlus 10T 5G] leezaal:
anything up to oneplus 9 i think !! can be EDL unbricked / rooted etc so i would go for one of those as a safety measure.

I went back to my trusty oneplus 7T which i can EDL unbrick, root, custom roms with no worries at all
[OnePlus 10T 5G] jones_b:
I'm thinking of doing the exact same thing. My 10T 5G can't be loaded with LineageOS, like I run on my trusty 7T now. I've never put the new 10T on a network. Never put a sim card in it,

but it updated to a newer Oxygen or Android version or both. Probably via wi-fi with my home network. It really looks like a nice phone and I'm super disappointed Oppo decided to 'break' the access to EDL tools, etc. It's a shame. Now I feel just like leezaal, my 7T looks like my last OP. Every couple of weeks I charge it and it's always dead when I start. Maybe I should go to weekly. It just sits and while 'on' it's not active doing anything afaik. My 7T runs great. I'm very happy with LineageOS .
[OnePlus 10T 5G] leezaal:
Know exactly how you feel i sold my oneplus 9 at a heavy loss and bought a mint condition used oneplus 9 off ebay, phone looks brand new everything works plus i was able to put custom roms on it and even EDL unbrick with msmtool just to make sure that side of things works and it does.

Funny thing is the oneplus 9 feels exactly like the newer phone i had before as the 9 has 120hrtz display etc
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] elmismobg:
When the tablet is turned off, I desperately need it to boot when plugged in to a charger (without using the power button). Already tried the old magic trick - "fastboot oem off-mode-charge 0" , but without success... :(

Any help will be much appreciated! Is root the only option? What then?

SM-T225, stock 13, not rooted, locked.

Thank you in advance!!! 🙌
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] elmismobg:
Anyone?!

Can't believe there is no way to make it boot (if the tablet is powered off) when connected to a charger... :(
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Hai Karate:
Only way I know of is to hold both volume up and down at the same time and keep them held while plugging it into a computer, then press volume down to reboot when the light blue screen appears. I don't know if that will work with just a charger.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KentaZX:
So I finally got mAid to work on another computer I'm using and I got the LGG4 H812 to connect to SALT and I tried unlocking with USU but I get the message "This download mode is not supported, downgrade to MM or LP." Even though I believe MM means "Marshmellow" and I thought the 20x firmware version COULD be unlocked anyways? The phone is the canadian version and the carrier is BELL though and I couldn't find any firmware with that specific carrier. So I'm not sure what to downgrade to or if I REALLY need to.

Also on a side note, when I tried using SALT to backup the phone, its always stuck at 0%, even on basic. it should be connected because I was able to reboot the thing with SALT so I'm not sure why it wont back up.
[Android Auto General] Zap!:
Kinda hard to explain, but I'll try my best. Have AA with a Z Fold4 phone and Headunit Reloaded in my car. When I first connect, my volume is 0-100 and the volume knob works great. If a song is too loud, I just lower it from (let's say) 84 down to 71.

After driving for several minutes, if I decide to change the volume again, 0-100 is no longer there. Instead, it defaults back to my head unit's original 0-30 volume. The knob still changes the volume, but it doesn't matter if it's on 0 or 30, the volume stays the same. The only way (besides resetting my head unit) to get it back to 0-100 is to adjust the know when my GPS is talking (for example, "speed camera reported ahead). Then it goes back to 0-100 for several minutes, and I can lower or increase song volume again...until 0-30 comes back once more.

How to I completely eliminate the 0-30? I need to always keep the 0-100 volume, because when it's on that, it works.
[Android Auto General] Zap!:
Anyone?
[Android Auto General] mike.s:
It's not AA, it's Headunit Reloaded. When AA is connected, volume is controlled by the headunit.
[Android Auto General] Zap!:
But it switches back and forth. What is the solution to make it stay on 0-100, which works?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] razgriz_blaze:
Hello XDA community,

I have a G965F that is permanently stuck on the first boot screen (Samsung Galaxy S9+ secured by Knox powered by Android) and it will not progress past this point. I have left it on for hours, and it just stays on that screen. Recovery mode does not work; if I try the button combination for it, it just stays on the same screen as mentioned before. However, I am able to get it into download mode. From here, I have tried flashing every firmware I possibly could, of course with the correct region and version, but nothing works, and the situation stays the same as mentioned before. Odin usually finishes up with no problems and reboots the phone, in which case the bootloop happens once again. On the rare occasion that Odin does fail, it will not boot even to the first splash screen but rather to the blue screen with the triangle, telling me to connect it to SmartSwitch and go from there. I have attempted this also, but SmartSwitch only gives some errors, and it fails.

The phone was on the stock firmware for a few years and even updated through Odin when OTA didn't work. It is a UK-unlocked Exynos device. About 2 years ago, I decided to switch to lineageOS using Neuroticals ROM, and that worked flawlessly, OTA updates and everything, 0 problems. I even went back to stock at some point and reinstalled Lineage shortly after because of how much it improved the device. About 9 months since I last did any type of flashing, the phone randomly froze while I was using it (I think the bottom half of the screen went black) and was totally unresponsive until I forced shut it down. This is where the aforementioned problem began.

I thought letting the battery run out would help, but it hasn't. One thing I have noticed is that it either charges very slowly or doesn't at all; it will only stay on for a maximum of a minute after it is unplugged. I left it for a few months, hoping to discharge it completely, but the problem persists.

Apologies for the lengthy post; I've used this site for about a decade for mods on various devices and it has solved all of my problems, but this is the first one that has really stumped me. For the past few months I've spent tens of hours searching various forums and webpages but can find very little about my specific problem. Thank you for any help in advance.

I will include pictures of the codes that download mode shows, and hopefully someone has some answers.

PS. For some reason current binary says "Custom (0x8)" after successfully flashing the stock firmware many times with Odin, but when Odin does fail it will show "Samsung Official". This I cant make heads or tails of.

[General Topics] CptLongJohn:
Hello,

is masking/spoofing IMEI on a software level (i.e. for let's say Instagram account creation) legal in the US/Europe?

And I mean by using lxposed or something.

Personally, I don't think so.

If someone has anything concrete, cases, laws etc. Would be most helpful.

Thank you.

https://xdaforums.com/t/imei-change-and-legality-mods-please-read.4155591/post-87001291

Seems like it is illegal. Well damn, I understand why because of the fraudsters but there are still some legitimate uses for it.
[General Topics] Oswald Boelcke:
@CptLongJohn I apologise for my delayed response due to real life at this extended holiday weekend. Please see my post also as a reply to your private message (PM). Generally, I refrain from responses to such messages as the XDA community doesn't benefit from a private conversation. In order to respect confidentiality that you might connect with your PM, I'm not quoting it; however, you're certainly free to share your PM here.

I'm unfamiliar with the legislation of the USA and Europe consists out of 46 - 49 sovereign countries; the affiliation of three countries is ambiguous. This means it's extremely difficult to answer your question in respect to Europe without academic work.

However, as a German citizen living in Germany, I can assure you the IMEI spoofing or masking on software level is not illegal in Germany, and also the European Union has not imposed any EU regulation that would have to be transferred into national laws in all EU countries. Latter does not mean that it might be legal in all EU countries.

The question you've raised is certainly interesting, and I certainly don't intend to stop the collection of knowledge and opinions or any discussion. However, independently from your question allow me to advise on the policy of this private website regarding IMEI's:

We don't allow any discussion of or support to change or edit of an IMEI (e.g. quite often asked for due to high taxes in some countries). Any references to paid services that support such requests are removed as soon as we become aware of them.

Support to restore or repair of the original IMEI of a device is accept, allowed and encouraged. Our forum doesn't consider the restoration of the original IMEI as a change of IMEI.

We allow that applications or e.g. (Ed)Xposed framework add-ons, which spoof , fake or mask an IMEI on software level, are posted and support to them are provided on XDA, as long as the spoofing or masking happens on software level, and the actual original IMEI is not tampered with. This software level spoofing is mainly done out of privacy concerns, which we respect, to disallow an application to use the IMEI as an unambigous identification and as such tracking feature. However, the XDA staff would immediately intervene if support or discussion would cover illegal purposes.

I'm sorry that I'm obviously unable to answer your questions from your above post or your PM but I hope our stance refected in our policy provides some clarification to our way how we handle these IMEI things on this private website. In case you're unhappy about this I suggest to contact our website's owners:

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Guides, News, & Discussion] sosimple:
Many, many thanks for this.. If i understand correctly, we can choose the android 13 file which includes gaps, so to have Google services?

Also there must be an error. The pit file is in CSC file and not in AP file.

Il try it, I'll post the results when i do it.

Thanks again!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Guides, News, & Discussion] sosimple:
I just installed it. Working fine. It does have gaps and playstore and it is vanila android, doesn't have samsung ui.

I suppose i can install in twrp magisk to root it.

After i flashed twrp and restarted, it didn't boot in twrp, but all screen had an error message with yellow txt, something about microsd (which i didn't had). I restarted again to boot in twrp, and this time it did boot in twrp, so i did flash image.

Thanks again!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Guides, News, & Discussion] sosimple:
Anyone knows how to root it?

After flashing system image from android 13, twrp is deleted as i understand. Trying to boot in recovery, it boots to normal recovery, not twrp.

I flashed in odin again only twrp and vbmeta

(TWRP image in AP and vbmeta.tar in the CP slot.). Only those files i used, I'm not sure if this is correct. Anyway, i booted in twrp this time. I couldn't find download folder where i had magisk.zip to flash, trying to root, so i finally just restarted the tablet. It booted ok, but when i tryed again to boot in twrp, it booted in normal recovery again, not twrp.

---If anyone can show me the contact steps to install twrp and root..

--- Aslo in this 13 rom, there isn't fingerprint scanner. Is there any way (xposed, something) to install it?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Guides, News, & Discussion] sosimple:
Although rom is fantastic, with excellent battery life, Ulunfortunately i found a bug which is important for me. Only the 2 right speakers work. The other 2 dont. If some time in the future there is a fix to this, it would be much appreciated. Until then, i have to go to android 12 original..
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Guides, News, & Discussion] tablet_seeker:
The speaker issue has already been fixed in the Daily Beta Version of Android 13 offered on the Google Developer's page. Just flash one of those.

Additionally, you can also try the arm64 image from ACI's master-branch. This is literally straight from Android and built/updated hourly.

https://ci.android.com/builds/branches/aosp-master/grid?

I just flashed the one that was released this morning and all four speakers work.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Guides, News, & Discussion] weinbers:
Which version/build did you use? Also, for updates, does the system>update function within the room work or does the full zip file need to be flashed each time?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Guides, News, & Discussion] tablet_seeker:
The first column named "aosp_arm64"

Branch Grid

ci.android.com

That will lead you to this page: https://ci.android.com/builds/submitted/9909221/aosp_arm64-userdebug/latest where you'll choose "aosp_arm64-img-9909221.zip"

As for your question about updates, it depends on whether your device supports seamless system updates. The SM-T860 and SM-T865 do not support it.

The regular arm64 image is Vanilla Android without Gapps.

You can also grab daily gsi builds from ci.android.com

Android 14 is brand new, so it's not perfectly stable but definitely usable.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sage:
In the title you have Android 14.. though then in Post #1 you have Android 13?

I did try 14 though they brightness did not work properly? and the it kept freezing? You said "Android 14 is brand new, so it's not perfectly stable but definitely usable." which version did you use? Cause the one i tried definately wasn't
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Guides, News, & Discussion] accerian:
Hello ,

Thank you for sharing the info :)

I have checked Rom and answered my own questions .

Widevine is L3 (so only 480p on Netflix)

Performance in Hearthstone is way better .

Unfortunately for me only bottom speakers works , i have checked both 14 and 13 beta

When using spen or Samsung keyboard pointer is set to vertical orientation when tablet is in Horizontal position ,

So they are unusable .

Cannot relock boatloader since it is erroring out on the VBmeta

Is there any way to use Samsung Apps like SNotes?

Thats the only thing I would need from OneUI
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sage:
maybe with some magisk modules.. or if your lucky just by flashing the apk
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Guides, News, & Discussion] tablet_seeker:
Thanks, fixed.

The Preview version on Google's main GSI site is unstable. You need to get the latest build on ci.android.com

They are literally building and releasing new artifatcs every 30 minutes.

Also, do you know where to get a Disabler for force encryption on Android 13 for the tab s6? Can't find anything.

Sure. Just download the Magisk APK from Github.

Install the Magisk APK, then extract the boot.img from your firmware files. Transfer the boot.img to your tablet, patch it with Magisk and then flash this patched img in TWRP choosing the boot option. There are tons of guides for this online.

No updates bc the tab S6 does not support seamless updates. You have to flash new versions. But its super fast because you just flash system and ur good.

Yes. I don't trust APKMirror so what I do is install the stock ROM from the latest samfirm firmware. Root it. Install File Commander, or any other root file manager.

Then navigate to /data/app and grab the Samsung Notes APK. All other apps are stored in this directory BTW. Then just install the APK once you flashed AOSP GSI
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Guides, News, & Discussion] kevinco1:
If you still want to keep using Samsung apps under a different OS like this one (AOSP, A14) install the Magisk module " Xmlpak a road to vendor apps".

After reboot, the Samsung apps you want to use again should show up in the app store for you to install. If not you can use APKMirror to download the APKs. Contrary to what a user posted above, this site is more than safe and verified.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Guides, News, & Discussion] AroundTheDial:
Well my initial results were the same as you when I did a clean install of 2023.10.19, still only audio from the bottom speakers. I was playing songs from the Files app to begin with, and at some point I enabled screen rotation. It wasn't on by default, and I thought maybe if I put it in landscape mode it might do something. It didn't, even after a couple of reboots. I installed the Rocket Player app, since that's what I use in the car with Android Auto, and tried that. Same thing, bottom speakers only. I skipped a couple of tracks ahead on the album I was testing with (Pink Floyd's Animals), and suddenly everything started working. Skipped back to the tracks I started on, everything was still working. I even risked a reboot, and all speakers are still working.

So I don't know if it was the screen rotation being enabled and some random number of playbacks required before the audio fixes decide to kick in, it just being a fluke that things started working, or something else altogether. I do know that I'm going to leave it on ponce's 2023.10.19 build for the time being. If/when tablet seeker starts offering some builds on his page (I don't feel comfortable enough yet to try building my own) I may give that a try, but for now it's working, and I'm not touching it.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Guides, News, & Discussion] tablet_seeker:
You need to let the ROM settle in. It takes a few reboots and usually about 24 hours before all the system related operations are fully integrated, this holds especially true for PHH settings. It takes a little time but the audio policy patch works in r11.

Another thing is how you engage the stereo instruction set. Testing system sounds and saying it's not working is nonsense. You have to use specific applications that are capable of understanding and leveraging the code that has been inserted to make stereo work.

So far, we are certain that VLC, Firefox, Chrome and a few other media apps are able to.

Props for listening to the Animals album, it's obscenely good. The riff in Dogs is arguable in the top 3 greatest riffs of all time, you can literally hear the guitarist's soul. You should check out Tony Iommi's work. Anything Black Sabbath really, but riff-wise I'd say Lonely is the Word, Heaven and Hell and War Pigs.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Guides, News, & Discussion] AroundTheDial:
I wouldn't just test systems sounds. Honestly, I couldn't care less about those since I would normally just turn them off wherever possible. For audio, where I care about it is during video playback, or regular music playback... where having all speakers working is a little more important :) I noticed the bottom-only speaker issue for a while now, but as plenty of people were having the issue, I knew that it was just a matter of waiting until someone more knowledgeable had time to investigate.

As for Animals, I FULLY acknowledge the greatness of Dogs. Me personally though, I have to place the track Sheep ever so slightly above it, sort of a 1a-1b ranking (I prefer Roger's more venomous vocal stylings :)) And c'mon, if I'm listening to Floyd, you can be damn sure I'm aware of Sabbath :) 90% of my music collection (almost 30TB) is rock, hard rock or metal!
