[General Questions and Answers] iamholland:
1. I recently got my ATT Tilt and have been loading it up with some great apps. I noticed that in File Explorer there are some folders/files I cannot find. For instance, I have no idea where Java is installed. Does anyone know where the root folder for this is? Does File Explorer not allow you to search some files/folders? Would something like Resco Explorer be a better option or does it only have a better UI.

2. The Tilt has about 150mb of internal ROM but I have a 2Gb microSD card installed. I have several Java games in the form of .jar files that I have copied onto my SD card. When running these .Jar files, the games are unzipped somewhere onto my device. However, I have no idea where they are installed. I want to make it so that the .jar files are unzipped onto my memory card so that I have more storage space available for games and don't clog up my internal ROM. Does anyone know how to do this?
[General Questions and Answers] nir36:
Generally speaking, if you want to see all folders in your system, you can always connect to your comp using activesync, make sure your PC file explorer SHOWS hidden files, mark the hidden PPC folders and in properties uncheck HIDDEN..

now you'll be able to see all folders in your PPC file explorer.
[General Questions and Answers] joel2009:
I use total commander, it can be used as a more complete "file explorer" and a registry editor.

the java midlets are probably installed where ever the java emulator is located, so i would just suggest installing a java emulator to the storage card and use it instead of the one located in the internal memory.

[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] kevinco1:
You'll have to factory reset to fix the different systemwide problems you have created, there's no way around it - just bite the bullet.

Once you have things back up and running, flash the correct version of Orangefox for custom recovery not TWRP.

Lastly, use the flashable firmware to get rid of the orange state

Hello XDA!

I have decided to make a flashable Odin tar that removes the boot warning on any device, using the new lpm format, and there is no specific binary or any type of root needed, and it doesn't even need the bootloader to be unlocked!

If you have any requests for more device compatibility, reply to this thread with the device model, and I'll support it.

SNAPDRAGON NOT SUPPORTED

​

--------------------------------------------------------------

How To Install:

Reboot to download mode (Vol Up + Down, Cable Plug In, or Vol Up + Power)

Flash in BL partition either using Heimdall or Odin.

--------------------------------------------------------------

FAQ:

- Does it support any model?

- Yes, but the model on boot will show another model (if using the wrong zip, but it still works at removing the boot warnings), and will not break your android system, or etc.

- Why is snapdragon not supported?

- Because it does not have an up_param file in the BL, suggesting that it is somewhere else, maybe in the firmware, so for now, only Exynos & Mediatek devices are supported. If you know where the up_param is located, please tell me so I can add support to this project.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Please reply with your experience using this flashable Odin tar, and report any bugs too.

Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy A12] Arealhooman:
All models? Is there a special way you made this that can be reproduced for other devices?
[Samsung Galaxy A12] arsfr:
yeah, all it has is a BL file with up_param.bin, so it technically doesn't need to check model, because there is specific model it can only be flashed on. but if flashing on another device, it will show the A12/F12 logo (depends on which one you downloaded). Send me your device model if you're using it on another device other than A12 or F12 (both models, a125f, a127f, f125f, and f127f, and etc).

So yes, in theory it does support any samsung device, but it will show the wrong boot screen (still works with removing boot warnings, but is just not the same device name on bootup). But, I can make more for other models, so like I said above, if you want me to make one for your samsung device, reply with your device model.
[Samsung Galaxy A12] Arealhooman:
Thanks!!! SM-T870!
[Samsung Galaxy A12] arsfr:
Sorry... I didn't realize that Snapdragon devices didn't have the up_param file (only exynos & mediatek devices do), so you will need to look for a alternate method. I'll update you if I find one, and I'll also change the thread name. But, anyways thank you for making me now aware of this issue.
[Samsung Galaxy A12] Arealhooman:
Yeah, assumed so, just wanted to verify.
[Samsung Galaxy A12] arsfr:
It appears that the snapdragon variants of samsung devices, and other devices are hard coded into the device, so you cannot do anything, unless some tool exists (which will most likely tell you to open your device).
[Samsung Galaxy A12] dclou:
This works on my rooted A127F/DSN

Thank you very much...
[Samsung Galaxy A12] l_ornoir:
Ayyyyy i tried flashing the up_param.bin with heimdall (windows is corrupted rn oof) but it failed and i still receive the warnings (it says failed in odin i remember but it worked same thing in heimdall but it didn't worked)
[Samsung Galaxy A12] arsfr:
hmm... What device? Snapdragon is not supported
[Samsung Galaxy A12] l_ornoir:
Galaxy A12 SM-A125F
[Samsung Galaxy A12] arsfr:
in BL slot?
[Samsung Galaxy A12] l_ornoir:
In heimdall there's no BL AP etc it's the name of the patitions so in my case up_param but i reinstalled Windows so i'll try with odin
[Samsung Galaxy A12] arsfr:
Ok. Tell me if it works, and thank you for telling me
[Samsung Galaxy A12] l_ornoir:
Np man :3 i'll do it in 5 min i was writing an how to guide go check it out :) and also do u think u can do one without the model name like on new samsungs ?
[Samsung Galaxy A12] arsfr:
Use the F12 one, it has the new one without the model name. Also I'll check it out, thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy A12] l_ornoir:
Weird it failed again i put it into BL idk why i'll try the F12 one and also for the AR guide i'll try to see but since i don't have experience idk if it works stay tuned
[Samsung Galaxy A12] arsfr:
The up_param is present, so I wonder why it wouldn't work, maybe it has something to do with the file, maybe try unlocking bootloader, then locking again (if you don't already have it unlocked, but it should work since it doesn't detect modified up_params, just the vbmeta, etc)
[Samsung Galaxy A12] l_ornoir:
yeah but i don't want to lock the bootloader since i have magisk but idk if it's normal it says Secure check fail up_param
[Samsung Galaxy A12] arsfr:
That was only if you had it locked in the first place.

Also, can you check in the firmware BL file if there is a up_param? If not, then I'm pretty sure your device is not supported.

Hello everyone!

I found a bootanimation.zip in /system/media and decided to see what it was, and it was the Samsung exynos boot animation, so I converted the bootanimation to qmg using the Samsung theme designer tool (outdated).

The boosamsung, bootsamsungloop, and shutdown (qmgs) are in the attachments inside the zip file.

THIS IS NOT A FLASHABLE ZIP, AND NEEDS TO MANUALLY BE EXTRACTED AND PLACED IN THE /system/media FOLDER IN THE ROOT ANDROID DIRECTORY, WHICH REQUIRES ROOT.​

[Google Pixel 7 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Whenever there is significant news that I put in the OP of one of my threads such as new firmware update or Platform Tools, when there is new, overriding information, I move the outdated news to another reserved post, such as Old news from the OP.

There is a character limit for each post:

Which has caused me to sometimes create a second "Very old news from the OP" reserved post, but it's already a pain moving the chunks of news as it is, and I'm not sure if it's really worth the trouble.

I have probably only referenced the old news a couple of times, and a rolling solution such as purging the oldest news and keeping the newest would be a further pain.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Lughnasadh:
I voted "It could be useful but never used it". If it's a pain I would just forget about doing it. If some old news subject comes up I'm sure we all can answer questions instead.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] xunholyx:
I usually go to your threads from a notification and read the newest posts from there. I seldom go back to the OP. I never even knew you updated them until now.

In the past, I'd go back to the OP in custom ROM threads when there was an update, but I haven't used custom ROMs since I got the Pixel 2XL. I don't find them necessary anymore. I am planning on keeping my Pixel 5 for a while though, so when updates for that are over I'll probably go back to trying them. I meant to with my 2XL as well, but I never got around to it before I didn't own it anymore.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Thanks for voting! I felt guilty when I wiped out my "Old News" post, I believe it was in my main Pixel 6 Pro thread. It's funny that old news for the Pixel 7 Pro just ran over the character limit today, but for the Pixel 6 Pro, it was only 2-3 or so months ago that it ran over.

LOL! 😂

Thanks for voting, too!

I hear you. Even by 2015 I usually regretted trying custom ROMs. And no disrespect intended towards developers. I think you're all awesome. I installed Lineage on my HTC 10 in the last year and that phone would run so hot, plus the battery was definitely lasting significantly less time than on stock, even for an old Android version on an old phone.

Admittedly, I haven't played around with others like Graphene, et cetera, but I'm not about to, either.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] xunholyx:
LOL! The HTC 10 was what I had before the 2XL. I ran Viper10 on it since the day I got it. But I was a member of Team Venom so....

[Google Pixel 7] JimSmith94:
Assuming you're rooted, that message is normal and can be ignored.
[Google Pixel 7] Lughnasadh:
The red eio corruption message isn't normal, but it can be ignored. You may be thinking of the "Your bootloader is unlocked....." message.

It usually takes an update to get rid of that message. Flashing back to an earlier month and then updating again should get rid of the message. You can also just ignore it until the next update.

Sometimes flashing an old boot image (your phone likely won't boot) and then flashing a newer boot image gets rid of that message as well.
[Google Pixel 7] LHui:
I refresh init_boot.img or prompt this message.
[Google Pixel 7] ozyk100:
Can someone please explain to me....

On official site for factory images there is only one factory image for april update as far as I can see.

(TQ2A.230405.003.E1, Apr 2023)

Does the E1 on the end means that it's for specific carrier?

If it is, does it matter for us that have unlocked phones?
[Google Pixel 7] simplepinoi177:
No, the E1 does not mean that -- in the past, the ending of the version number can indicate something like that, but if there is no other monthly version, it's safe to say that is not the case. Linked below is a post on how the version numbers are determined and/or how to read them...

When there is no carrier specific version of firmware updates, it means the factory firmware image is applicable to all. If there is any specific version, it is identical in most ways, it just has special data/setup/applications(not apps or programs) that usually help the device's radio connect to the carrier's network optimally -- and from what I've read somewhere, all subsequent updates have said modifications included in them anyways. But if you're not certain, always flashing the "global" version is a safe bet; at worst, you're just not implementing the optimal "code" for the device's radio to the carriers network is all.

Almost 6 years separate the OnePlus 5T from the S23+ and still, the 5T gets better definition and focus, despite the fact that the 5T already has enough problems with the Camera.

But Samsung continues to say that it is a function and characteristic of the lens of the S23+ what is clearly seen in the "banana" effect is a circle of blur, perhaps not because of the sensor but because of the poor construction of the lens. I, like many others, feel cheated for having bought the S23.

I agree with you, for point and shooters this camera is fine, check the new Oppo with fake bokeh, but some people like fake stuff.

I don't understand why this fever to build cameras of high mpx, I think resolutions between 20mpx to 25mpx is more than enough for everybody and the result will be only advantages from noise reduction to the file size where today the S23 DNGs are very big around 170mpx, my 30mpx mirrorless camera has raw files around 24 mpx with a quality of picture miles a way better compared to any phone..
