[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Z3R0L1F3:
it matters. in a good way. and of COURSE its all inclusive w user part. dude mb i knew it was gna b really obvious & dumb of me haha. & yea sry i was off topic talking abt Kali. I have trouble sometimes Discerning the line like we're not talking about Kali we're talking about this phone but it's presumed that it's to root and then it's presumed that not everyone wants root because of Kali but most Folks at least have tried it or know it and it's all going back to the same thing it's the correctness of these flash files or lack thereof. On this device. "Why" is xtra (even if only slightly). But yeah I was off topic. You've saved the day dude and I understand now drop the mic thanks

EDIT: man it is such a trip for me trying to wrap my mind around how you're taking up storage in downloading that to hold blocks that have not been assigned like you're using "data" (storage) to hold " not data" I can't even bro my mind just deliciously breaks down every single time in translation haha this stuff is fun but you knew that already
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Z3R0L1F3:
Since this is a new subject, and I asked it before but jumbled in with nonsense , I'll give this its own comment.

What is the dmverity corruption actually translating to in terms of cost or functionality to this device and I?

( overall generally. In the context of Nethunter specifically)

Also, every source I read online either does not specify an alternative or it assures you you need twrp. But you can direct install with magisk after root. And you can ADB push or side load from micro SD. So I mean really is there something I'm missing because I'm under the impression that number one there is no custom recovery option for us and that number two it's okay because there exists alternatives
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Z3R0L1F3:
A few questions and to "boot" thank you for what looks like an answer to the question I don't have to ask. So yes I want to implement this. I have spent entirely too much time trying to diagnose why kali chroot downloads but doesn't install. They recommend 8 gigs available storage. I gave it to them (wasn't easy) . And I'm an idiot because obviously the problem is DMverity forceencrypt .

So I:

1) grab (x4) files (got)

2) rename the 2 vbmetas to <name>.empty? "empty" is the extension?! Tits. (Def y it didn't work for me 1st time- lack of "empty"ness)

3) it's necessary to magisk patch the 2 vbmetas, too? Bc i seem to recall issue w that. Ok prob not boots r patched idk lmk

4) fastboot --set-active=a

5) flash boot_a, vbmeta_a

6) fastboot --set-active=b

7) flash boot_b, vbmeta_b

8) fastboot reboot

Seems straightforward enough. A couple loose ends for this guy tho:

• fastboot --set-active=* ALWAYS says done, and flashing then subsequently ALWAYS sends to slot_b. So seeing as how it's me, and seeing as how I've had root this whole time with prob only one active slot, can you confirm for me whether flashing both slots is merely preferred, or whether it's absolutely mandatory?

• accessing unencrypted /system will require wiping dalvic/art & yet another FR, right? Sigh.. I Came Upon an article that mentioned that since both bootloader and Verity required fr, most folks preferred to do them both at once. I had literally never heard that in my life before and feel as though I should have lol

THANKS for the help!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Z3R0L1F3:
Lol when u flash over both 'a's in slot_b w both 'b's. FINISHED, my foot! Ahem. Suppose I need to wipe dalvik & FR? That'll do it for me, fellas. This was a loose end.

Thanks @ohhheyy123.

Thanks @Angelicus_Malus

Thanks whoever can elucidate either question- past or present
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Z3R0L1F3:
"fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta storage/emulated/0/vbmeta_*.empty"

Is actually the command that has now apparently caused a boot loop (it was booting w dmverity corruption. Chroot was broken. The command killed nothing. It merely got device behaving ded- as it'd been apparently all along. Good. It means something is DIFFERENT. It tells me it worked. We move on.. Wiping and resetting now.

You forgot the "verification" flag. But no lie thanks for the dot blank that would have taken me like five straight weeks hahaha
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gomavs123:
Hello, I received this phone but in a state where even android recovery cannot fix it after factory data reset. It says android go edition when it starts. I was wondering if there was a newb-based guide to reflash my device? Thank you
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gomavs123:
HEllo, I know it has been a while, but I saw your stock rom on the website and downloaded it. Right now my stratus c7 has a "no command" android icon when i go to recovery mode. I was wondering how I can re flash my phone with that rom if possible? thanks in advance
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Z3R0L1F3:
On "No Command", Tap VOL+ while holding PWR (I felt silly too, no shame). It will be stock to the best of my knowledge, and so here you'll find where I'm at- left with sideloading after FR. I haven't looked further into it I'm still learning. I know you can sign it . But I seem to feel as though you can't just sign it willy-nilly. Stock ROM FW dump is unsigned. If you screw up, whatever you do DON'T factory reset unless/until slapping on:

*radio.img

*bootloader.img

*vendor.img

*(patched)boot.img

*system.img

*recovery.img

-via fastboot. DO NOT FR IN RECOVERY TO UNBRICK BEFORE FLASHING IMGS IN FASTBOOT. Seriously there's not even custom ROM so dirty flash should be okay straight up don't wipe or format a damning thing. Wipe Dalvik/ART/Data (Factory Reset) away to ur hearts content in recovery- AFTER THE FLASHBOOT FLASHATHON

..I wouldn't even wipe after that! Watch her purr... Well, cache might b necessary. Data, no. But if u decide shrug, I give up- just know that

"$adb -w /data" or Factory Reset

WILL effectively signal your last trusted connection pending unbrick. WHY IN THE NAME OF ANYONE'S GOD DO I FEEL AS THOUGH I DON'T EVER SEE THIS? 1001 ARTICLES: "WARRANTY". "BOOTLOADER". "ADB". "DRIVERS"... HOW ABOUT

"DON'T FUK W /DATA PRE-100% BOOT"??

FACTS.

Sorry.. fukd me up, I swear...

I'm telling you dude you will lose the permissions not even just thinking about what you're doing stupid stupid.

***Incidentally, could anyone could pity this fool and offer a solution for sideloading an mtkclient dump? I DONT THINK I HAVE RECOVERY***
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ATV2000:
Could you explain how is done? I would like to tinker on mine.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gomavs123:
Hello, I agree the rest of the procedure might be a bit tough for me to execute, but I want to let you know the first step you mentioned about "TApping vol+" was a LIFE SAVER for me. Nowhere could I find online to tap the button rather than hold on to it or holding something else or releasing it- nothing worked until I saw your subtle but hugely beneficial step.

I am going to walk through as much as I can on the rest of the other steps you mentioned there in attempt to get my phone to working condition.

Thanks!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AA27:
Well, you can unlock the bootloader, using MTK. Now when I start the phone it's considered "unsafe" and it will shut off if you don't press the power button within 5 seconds, lol. So yeah bootloader is unlocked but I have not done anything else since I'm no longer using TrueConnect. But the phone is there so if I can retrieve the image, do a back up and do somethng else I'll try to post it. Meanwhile, I guess I work around with MTK to see what can I do.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mydemonguy6:
there is a backup already online for this phone an its works i been using mtkclient-1.52 to try an flash the boot_a.bin an boot_b.bin but i try to replace them with the magisk boot file the phone says red state an dose not boot i tried to us Hxd to edit the vbmeta.bins but that dose not work either not sure what else to do just been having fun trying to see what might work i know there is away to also port TWRP to it just working trying to build on that will work

I need help with some things.

A friend of mine put to my fingers a Cloud Mobile Stratus C7, but when I try to put on the ADB (the command ".\fastboot flash recovery .\file_name.img") the ADB console say to me "No such file or directory". I'll try in fastboot menu (The command "fastboot reboot fastboot") the option of "apply update from ADB" and choose the stock. The point is the ADB console never passed of "~0%". Now the phone mark a text titled "dm-verity corruption".

I'm doesn't know what to doe now. I'm try it. I'm try everything after that. I'm downloaded the Stock ROM from: https://www.needrom.com/download/stock-stratus-c7/.

But I don't know if that correct 'cause the phone doesn't want give me a choice. The phone doesn't appear on MTK tool so... In done.

If someone have a one or three words of wisdom I appreciate it. So plis hel

[XPERIA X1 General] commodoor:
i have my xperia a couple of weeks now. i like it very much but for one thing it crashes to much. the rom is orginal i didnt change that. i even used hard reset but didn't solve the problem.

it happens mostly when i click the x panel.

does anyone have the same xperiance ( :p ). or does anybody knows why it crashes plz tel me.
[XPERIA X1 General] Ahmed Michael Scott:
Xperiance >.> ... it happens to me,, a lot, i got my phone two days back..
[XPERIA X1 General] rotsu:
Unless you have touchflo 3d on your phone which cases it to crash like that. Nothing should crashes your phone like that. Hard reset and see if it does that again, exchange your phone if it does cuz thats not normal.
[XPERIA X1 General] commodoor:
no there is no tf3d

i did a hard reset yesterday.

sometimes it works great doesnt crash i can use everything. but somethimes i want to change panel i press te "x panel" it doesnt do anything i'm forced to use the reset.

i want to know of its hardware or software that couse the crash.
[XPERIA X1 General] Tanquen:
Mine does this randomly as well. I’ve seen it in a hand full of forums and it seems to be normal. The only thing I’ve installed is the Garmin XT software and it’s never running. I’m just guessing but I think most all of them do it but it’s being attributed to popular hacks and add-ons because it’s random and untimely and/or they exasperate the problem. It’s even one of the rumored reasons for the rumored recall. :) There are also some odd charging issues.

I’m trying to decide whether to keep it, hoping for a firmware fix or return before the 30 days runs out.
[XPERIA X1 General] commodoor:
ok thats means im not the only one with this problem, hope sony does something a fix or something.

what do you mean with odd charging issue? like when charging it gets very hot?

i have that sometimes to only when im using the phone and charging.

i think there wouldnt be a recall for crashing i think it has to do something with the panel and maybe a hotfix can solve the problem. im curious of someone using a custom rom of they still have the crash problem. if anyone can reply that has a custom rom??
[XPERIA X1 General] Tanquen:
Sometimes it gets really warm and though it says that it is charging, it's not.

I've unlocked my POCO X3 PRO using xiaomi unclock tool.

Is it possible to install the MIUI stock ROM with root capabilities without installing TWRP boot loader?

Or maybe there is a way to root my current ROM without flashing a new one at all?

Thanks!

U need to use fastboot to boot CORRECT twrp image. (IT will not flash, just boot.)

The command is: fastboot boot twrp.img

Use CORRECT image name

No flashing or anything!
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] GN-z11:
First, TWRP is not a bootloader, it's a custom recovery. @susabakusa mentioned that you can boot TWRP without flashing it using fastboot command he/she provided. And then flash magisk from there.

Hey!

I have tried a couple of different custom roms on this phone, but it seems that both had the same problem. My screen keeps waking up by itself with no moving etc. All screen wake settings are off. Fingerprint is off. I tried to use the command "settings put secure wake_gesture_enabled 0".

Nothing seems to be fixing this issue. With Pixel Experience, the issue started happening only after a while. At first it was good, for a day or so.

What gives? Thanks!

[Realme GT 2 Pro] Gabiblocks:
Hi guys,

I wanted to upgrade from my Xiaomi Mi 11 and wanted to try something new. My choice is the Realme GT 2 Pro.

I bought mine 12/256GB paper green model for 2700pln/674usd/611eur brand new.

so onto the review,

DISPLAY - 9.5/10​

The display in this phone is one of it's strongest points, LTPO2, 120hz, amoled, 1440p, HDR10+ and 1400 nits.

Colors are great, it's bright enough to see everything outside, 120hz is great especially when it saves battery thanks to LTPO2 technology.

Why 9.5 and not 10? It's not curved

PROCESSOR - 9.5/10​

Not much to say about it.

It is great, still delivering top tier performance.

NO IT DOES NOT OVERHEAT. Can heat up sometimes though.

Why 9.5 and not 10? sd8gen2 is better.

CAMERAS - 8.5/10​

Both wide and ultrawide cams take amazing pictures (2x50mp).

Microscope camera is also great, but not useful for me (still cool to flex on your friends lol).

Selfie camera is meh. Does the job for me though.

Videos are great, very stable, colors are great, accurate to reality. Camera app is not missing anything.

20x digital zoom is not the best.

Why 8.5 and not 10? Better cameras exist (this phone has the best camera for it's price though).

BATTERY - 10/10​

5000mah, 65W charging.

Screen on time is great, managed to get it up to ~8h30m.

65W charger (included in the box) does it's job in ~40 minutes.

No wireless charging but i never used that anyways

SOFTWARE - 10/10​

ColorOS is amazing.

Looks great, performs great, customization is great... not much more needed to say.

DESIGN - 9/10​

The phone looks good and elegant.

Why 9 and not 10? display isn't curved, selfie camera is not on the center.

OVERALL - 9.5/10​

I RECOMMEND THIS PHONE.​

definetly the best option in it's price range
[Realme GT 2 Pro] KK99999:
I also have it 1 month and I mostly agree with you. But not for 611€ ... that is absurd price... I am feeling guilty that i bought it new for 369€ from well known china store, it was china version 12/256GB, which I changed to EU region. Wouldnt pay any more money, because for 800-900€ you get s23 ultra, which is hands down way better phone. I have every phone for 4 years, i use it a lot so I am thinking of selling gt2 pro and get s23 ultra. I have the money and life is to short to not get the best stuff if you can and if you use it for a long time!
[Realme GT 2 Pro] E620se:
Haha this seems like a payed or mega biased post.

The phone overall is maybe a 7,5/10.

My 3 year old Mi10, which I had before the GT2 Pro, can keep up in most categories. I regret that I bought the realme (and I just paid 349€ on Amazon Germany).
[Realme GT 2 Pro] corneo:
Be a bit gentle, please. There is nothing to laugh about. I'm on F5 Pro, OP11 and GT2 Pro. GT2 Pro is my daily driver because with undervolt and overclock it's the better overall experience for me. Compared with the underclocked 8+gen1 in F5 pro it's nearly the same performance. The price of round about 350 bucks is very good for GT2 pro. The pictures are also better than F5 pro. I also don't like MIUI. That's also a reason to stay on GT2 pro. It's always a personal decission what phone someone prefer.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] KK99999:
@corneo Can you post a link where i can find info about undervolt on gt2 pro? I prefer not to root my phone, is it possible to undervolt with some ADB command?
[Realme GT 2 Pro] corneo:
For undervolting you have to root your device and you also have to disable verity. Otherwise your device won't boot. After that you have to install konabess and import undervolt table or try by yourself to find optimal undervolting settings of your chipset.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] Gabiblocks:
got the mi 10 as well, in terms of battery it keeps up, has better speakers and haptics than the gt 2 pro and thats all. Camera takes worse pics, screen is obv worse, its slower.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] Gabiblocks:
611 euro for this phone in my country is a awesome price

Isn't life cheap in Poland?

nope
[Huawei P10 Lite Questions & Answers] LonelySnowMan00:
Recently I rooted my Huawei P10 Lite with magisk, everything went well except that i couldn't create folders, or whenever i entered the gallery app I got a message that said "Insufficient storage space". For this and for other reasons i decided to install a custom rom, LineageOS 17, I followed a tutorial here, on Xda. Something went wrong, the os didnt want to load in, it always went into erecovery, i tought i install an older version of LineageOS, so i installed the 15v. It didn't work. So i tought I might need to wipe, so i wiped the cache, system, data, dalvik/art cache folders. After doing the last two steps a couple of times, and some factory resets, I'm here with no os, and i cant recover the os that i had preveiously on. I tought i look for the stock filmware and flash that via SD card and software upgrade mode, it went well till it didn't. After loading 1% it said error, that the file cant be found, I cant really remember that.

I'm not sure what causes my problem,

I have no os, I can enter into fastboot mode, and i can also enter in erecovery mode. And i have TWRP installed, which is working.

(i have no backup of anything, on top of it all)

Do i need to install another OS? What should I do?
