[Android Head-Units] Candesta:
Oh dear.

It would have been useful if someone with the same setup had happpened upon the question and know the answer. Every other feature works fine so I didn't expected someone to put in days of work to solve the issue and, honestly, I'm not that worried about it.

FWIW I have not had access to the car since last I posted the original question, so have not been able to get more info. I realise it was probably very rude of me not to say that before but the post had dropped down so many pages I assumed it would fade into obscurity, like an 80s rock group.

I don't really want to get into an argument here, TorstenH, but are you a little bitter? Do you feel the world is treating you unfairly? It's the only reason I can see for that last post from you. I don't spend a lot of time on this forum and when i went looking for my post it was, something like, ten plus pages down so, as i said, I assumed it would be forgotten. Lighten up.
[General Questions and Answers] Privacydroid:
These are the installation steps i followed to install BlissOS14 on an older Acer laptop:

Install to harddisk

Create/Modify partitions

GPT > No

1 New

2 Primary > Enter

7 Bootable > Enter

4 Write > yes > Enter

6 Quit

8 sda1

9 Ok

10 ext4 > format yes (used fat32 because ext4 didn't work)

11 GRUB > yes

12 Read/Write > yes

I've tried the same with BlissOS15 and it didn't work at all, then when i tried with BlissOS14 it also failed but i retried using fat32 over ext4 format and it worked, after waiting a few minutes, blissos started successfuly.

But, when i rebooted the laptop there now is a status message displayed saying "this is not a bootable disk". Note that this error happens even when i clearly installed blissos on the harddrive instead of using livemode.

So i went into the bios and moved drive0, then drive1, and a few other options to the top of the list to make them the boot-drive.

No matter which drive i selected as boot-drive, blissos doesn't boot as if it wasn't even installed.

I can only guess from here, either the acer laptop doesn't know how to boot bliss, or i might have done something wrong?

After all i was able to use blissos14 on this laptop without any issues but after the reboot the device acts as if there was no os.

Hi everyone, can someone with a Pixel 7a confirm if non root protected KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) support is also available on this model just as it has been made available for Pixel 7 and 7 Pro?
[Google Pixel 7a] danon.brown:
Is there a simple way to check this?
[Google Pixel 7a] tlope:
Hi @danon.brown

Thanks for your interest! Unfortunately I don't think there is an easy way so no problem at all if you don't get to it.

It looks like those who confirmed it on Pixel 7 did so by running virtual machines on their phones, here is kdrag0n's announcement:

https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1584017653269958656

If I had a Pixel 7a I would have just tried with crosvm since this VMM seems to support pKVM.

/apex/com.android.virt/bin/crosvm run --protected-vm -p 'root=/dev/vda' --rwdisk ${my_disk_image} ${my_kernel_image}

[Samsung Galaxy S22] scareferatis:
Hello. My problem is:

I’m rooted and on Pixel Experience since September. I’ve had no issues untill my root hiding setup stopped working for some apps. I decided to replace my good ol’ Cygisk Magisk with Magisk Alpha.

When I did “fastboot flash boot boot.img”, it succeeded, but Magisk Manager said that nothing is installed.

I tried installing TWRP via Odin. And this is the breaking point. TWRP TAR archive consists of boot and vbmeta images. So the system and userdata are intact. Odin failed the flash saying something about vbmeta’s hash being incorrect. But instead of properly rebooting my device, it sent it into some pseudo-service mode that says “An error has occured while updating”.

Now this is a clear bug in Odin. I’m 100% certain that my system files are OK. Odin is configured in such a weird way that it sends a device with a fail (it doesn’t care for the exact reason of failure) into that error mode.

How to get out of there without reflashing? I don’t want to lose my perfectly fine-working firmware setup because of some low-paid coder, who thinks that he’s the smartest person on Earth.

I tried flashing blank TAR via Odin to make it reboot my device, but to no avail. Stucks at SetupConnection and crashes itself.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] sysctl:
Hi!

I have issue with app on my S7 Edge that demands me to unroot. I rooted my phone 5 years ago or more and I don't remember a thing about it. I did this to permanently remove bloatware. Only way I know to unroot is to flash stock-rom again but I don't want to loose my hard effort on debloating + data and so on. Is there any tricks for that? Like hide/remove su binary? I really don't remember where to start. Also with factory reset or something I cant remember I lost root access partially - that is apps can still tell that phone is rooted (root checker tells that root access is available but then also orange warning that root access is not properly installed on this device). But they can't request root privilege for some reason. But I still have this custom recovery rom installed where I have basically root access to phone - do you think I could use this to somehow hide temporarily root from my app that is complaining about it and then later restore root to the full - that is to make apps able to request root access again? I would like to keep my apps/data and I remember them getting lost in process of rooting due to some samsung encryption crap - not sure how to check data/app loss would be case now since I did it so long time ago. Could anyone help me out?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] sysctl:
For documentation purposes. So in my case I had lost root with factory reset. I had to boot into TWRP and re-flash super su. Difference from official tutorial: https://xdaforums.com/t/recovery-exynos-official-twrp-for-galaxy-s7-edge-hero2lte.3334084/ was that in step 9 my phone did not complain about dm-verity,. I did not have to disable encryption and I did not loose my data. Someone may correct me but it was because I had already rooted in past and the most likely cause for "loosing" root was doing factory reset. PS I have european model so I am not sure how much it makes this tutorial different.

Now what is left to do is come up with ideas how to hide root from 1 specific app in Android 7.

On Tuesday the phone went crazy. By 1pm it had gone from 80% to 20% with my normal use which isn't much. The phone, in a Spigen case, was very hot to the touch. So, I did a factory reset. It's now 10am Wednesday and the phone seems to be performing normally. I don't know what the problem was but a factory reset seems to have resolved it.

A few days ago I read that one can connect a flash drive to a Pixel 7 and upload files from the Pixel 7 to the flash drive. So I connected a flash drive that has one file on it and that is formatted as NTFS. However I don't know what to do next because I can't find anything on the P7P that refers to that flash drive. Could someone please point me in the right direction?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] xtcislove:
I use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alphainventor.filemanager

It mounts my usb stick fine.

Anyway i think Google File Manager should BE able to do the Same.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] elong7681:
Android can't read NTFS
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] TheMystic:
Enable OTG.

If it doesn't help, it means the Pixel cannot read NTFS formatted file system.

Use one of these to read NTFS formatted systems:

1. ZUGate

2. exFAT/ NTFS for USB by Paragon
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] TheMystic:
OnePlus devices CAN.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] xunholyx:
Not true. It was true about 6 or 7yrs ago

Maybe it can't read NTFS, I'm not sure. But USB connectivity on Pixel devices is read only, and not r/w. exFAT has been supported for years now
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] JohnTheFarm3r:
It can.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] elong7681:
I stand corrected. Just tried it myself and it can read it.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] halfbytecode:
Some people have had success with writing to USB flash drives, through third-party apps like Total Commander and others. You might need additional plugins for such apps though.

Edit: Mixplorer also works well for writing to USB flash drives. If needed, the custom USB OTG driver can be enabled from Mixplorer settings.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] simplepinoi177:
I'm confused where there is any trip-up; I apologize if it's simply going over my head.

I use the Kingston DataTraveler MAX (256 GB) USB-C flash drive directly plugged into the P7P, formatted to exFAT, and that's all there is to it to do my monthly backup (that I do before I manually update the security Full Factory image) -- both using Swift Backup, SMS Backup&Restore, and manually moving non-data folders from the internal SD!

It pops up in the stock Files app (in "Storage devices" section under "internal storage"; I can't recall what exactly it comes up as off the top of my head), and it definitely can do r/w. No plugins needed, no third-party app needed, no OTG setting required to be ticked (at least with the stock Files app).

It's very straightforward; I'm afraid I'm missing something. Is the comments only speaking on running it with NTFS format?

Again, sorry if I'm missing something obvious...
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] halfbytecode:
@simplepinoi177

Google Files app is buggy, and often does not even show the USB flash drive as one of the destinations to choose from, after selecting the copy file operation, even though it otherwise shows the USB flash drive.

When it does work, it does not copy over the original timestamps of the files to the USB flash drive.

The timestamp issue is also present while copying with the good old Documents UI.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] simplepinoi177:
Thank you for explaining. I wasn't aware of those issues with it.

My personal experience is never having any issues with it (both the flash drive nor the Files app); and I use it on my two P7Ps every month since getting it release day. And all I do is do the copy file operation as I only use that drive for backing my data up.

I've never took notice of the timestamps, but it's not a priority for me, but it's good to be aware of; so thank you for informing me.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] TheMystic:
Yours is formatted in exFAT (which is an improved version of FAT32) which is kind of universal. Works on Windows, Android , Linux and macOS too.

Yes. NTFS is Microsoft's file system that works as read-only in macOS and doesn't work in many Android devices (OnePlus is a known exception).
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] JohnTheFarm3r:
And Samsung (read-only).
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] TheMystic:
Since when? As far as I can remember, I had to install a 3rd party app to make it work. It's been quite a while since I connected a NTFS formatted drive.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Skuddle:
When I plug a USB stick (that has been formatted the long way as ExFAT) into my P7P and get to USB Preferences, tapping "This device" results in "Couldn't switch". And I'm using whatever File app came with my (as of April 2023) new unit. And it's using Android 13, and the unit tells me that all apps have been updated (as of May 8 when I performed the Update operation).

I see that there is no consensus on how to format the USB stick. Some say ExFAT, some say FAT32, some say that the P7P can read NTFS and others say that it can't... What's a guy to believe??? In any event, I've tried all formats and my P7P is not able to read any of them.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] TheMystic:
Use exFAT. It is universal and is supported by most operating systems.

Are sure your USB stick isn't corrupt?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] simplepinoi177:
I don't see where you're getting USB Preferences...it's never anything I need to do/choose "tapping 'this device'", it merely shows up under internal storage (as I've mentioned before) -- as DataTraveler MAX. This is using the stock Files app as well. I'm also updated to May update.

If anything, the only thing I found that I do that I didn't need to before is there is an "eject" option in the notifications to choose to safely remove it. Other than that, there isn't/wasn't anything particular to get it all working for me; to detect, read, write, delete, etc.

I did a bit of research on what to format USB-C flash drives for Pixel 7's and it said to do ExFAT; and ExFAT is the only format that can be read by both Microsoft and MacOS -- so I figured that kind of compatibility is also the reason why it's best for Android/Pixels....

It's curious how you're having so much issues when it's so simple (at least to me in my experience).

Like @TheMystic said, it makes me think it might be a corrupted drive if you're having that much inconsistencies and issues....
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] TheMystic:
It shows up in the notification area when you connect a USB. You can choose how you want to control the connection: using the phone itself or using the computer that the phone is connected to.

You'll basically see 2 notifications every time you connect a USB device.

It has always been there, unless you turn OFF Android System notifications. Not sure about custom ROMs though.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] simplepinoi177:
I'm familiar with the 2 choices on choosing how to control the connection -- but why would that apply with a USB Flash (HD/SD) Drive; as opposed to a computer? It would neither gain power from a flash drive nor need to make the "distinguishment" to transfer via MTP or PTP, or need any device "control" -- it's a flash drive, it would only be for file transferring/storing.

At the very least, when I connect mine, there is no such options in my notification (nor is it needed/necessary)...I only get the two options to "Explore" or "eject"; not like the multiple I get when connecting to the computer...

[General Questions and Answers] jahfaby:
So, I found this pos system from takeaway.com (so, I didn't find an english link) in the trash and figured, it's just an android tablet with a thermal printer. If I could sideload other apps, this could be a fun little thing to play with. When it boots up, it goes straight to the App. Via the advanced wifi settings and "install certificate" I was able to take a look into the file system, it's plain old android underneath. I was able to plug in a keyboard with a mouse and to force quit the app, but it just restarted. The chip is a LTE SC20-E by Quectel, but I didn't find any information on how to sideload a launcher or to root the system. The back of the device looks as if you could just connect two pins to force uboot, but this didn't work either.

I can access the wifi settings and thats about it. There are no physical buttons on the device. Do you have any idea on how to proceed? I'd love to use this little thing something artsy. Thanks for your help! All the best from germany.
