[Google Pixel Fold] rhcp011235:
You can temp SIM unlock any pixel (as long as you dont restore it it will be unlocked)

Cliff notes from the below thread:

Link to thread: https://xdaforums.com/t/unlock-any-pixel-from-carrier.4327595/

I made a all in one tool for it - https://bit.ly/44fHS9G

You need to install net guard to block google from checking (The sim lock / unlock is all server side)
[Google Pixel Fold] squidbutt:
What do you mean restore it? It's on android 14 also
[Google Pixel Fold] rhcp011235:
Did you read the instructions? You need to do the temp unlock from fresh with no sim inside and no internet. And it works on android 14 as well
[Google Pixel Fold] Nookie 3:16®:
This method tested working on pixel fold?
[Google Pixel Fold] rhcp011235:
Yes
[Google Pixel Fold] Nookie 3:16®:
Followed instructions and it doesn't work for me. After completing setup (netguard installed and working) it just reverts back to this sim card is not supported.
[Google Pixel Fold] squidbutt:
I also couldnt get it to work. I got the Failure [DELETE_FAILED_INTERNAL_ERROR] also netgear didnt work and i used a pro version
[Google Pixel Fold] rhcp011235:
Just need to keep trying. I’ve heard it can take up to 4 attempts.
[Google Pixel Fold] squidbutt:
I used netguard to block all three of the carrier services and device setup. Calling worked but when I setup my apn settings and it connected to the internet it went back to SIM incompatible
[Google Pixel Fold] rhcp011235:
Just need to keep trying. it will work sooner or later. ive had multiple people reach out to me thanking me of this working. like ive said before, its not my method, ive just made the files so people can do the ADB steps with one click vs playing around.
[Google Pixel Fold] rhcp011235:
It also sounds like you missed blocking something as well
[Google Pixel Fold] squidbutt:
could you give me detailed instructions that include netguard and the one click?
[Google Pixel Fold] rhcp011235:
My one click installer can be found at : https://bit.ly/44fHS9G

As far as the instructions:

Before you attempt this operation
Reset your phone and do not connect to Wifi, uncheck all diagnostic data
Do not insert any SIM
Enable Developer options

If you do not do one or all the things listed, you may have problems!

To start, you have to connect the phone to a computer..
OK.. however first install ADB drivers.. I assume you already have that installed

Run the PIXELSIMUNLOCK_FIXED.bat file (Windows users)
or for other OS (MacOS and Linux)
Adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.carriersetup
Adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.pixel.setupwizard
Adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.setupwizard
Adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.pixel.setupwizard.auto_generated_rro_product__
Adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.partnersetup
Adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.pixel.setupwizard.overlay
Adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.pixel.setupwizard.overlay2019
adb reboot

Since I'm too lazy to figure out what Application it is, follow this -->
Go to your Applications --> Show System Apps --> Device Setup --> Battery usage Restricted --> Mobile and Data background data off

Restart your phone again and insert your SIM and enjoy your free SIM unlock!
( or Connect to Wifi metered (advanced options))

You are done... you can connect to Wi-Fi METERED only though. So follow the next steps if you want to avoid problems.

--- NETGUARD (OPTIONAL)
Please note that this will render all VPN apps unusuable since this app will run as VPN all the time. Take this not for the faint of the heart.

Login to your Google account and go to Play Store on Mobile Data or Wi-Fi metered.

Install Netguard, and allow unrestricted battery (it's safe)

Tap three dots, go to advanced settings, Show System Apps, and block Device Setup and Carrier Setup.

DONE! You can update regularly now and connect to Wi-Fi normally.

if netguard does not work, netpatch firewall will solve it
(This is used as a second option)
PLAY STORE: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=co.netpatch.firewall
APK: https://netpatch.github.io/files/NetPatch_Firewall-v0.16-netpatch-release.apk

Block device setup,and block connections without VPN, and do not optimize.
[Google Pixel Fold] squidbutt:
So I got its been about 10 min and it's still working. I used netpatch this time not netguard. Thanks a million!!!
[Google Pixel Fold] rhcp011235:
Glad you got it :)

If you know how to use ADB, Can you pull the config file for NetPatch?
[Google Pixel Fold] squidbutt:
Ill try and figure it out. One thing.. Device setup keeps popping up saying "retreaving data from server". It looks to me like its trying to connect. So I cant turn the phone off,correct?
[Google Pixel Fold] tomasmie:
Does this still work? I tried the adb commands insert SIM card, and the SIM+data works for like 1 minute, and then got the locked message. It seems it's still able to phone home and block it somehow.

The fact that SIM+data works for 1minute makes me think its still possible to bypass the block.

UPDATE: These updated ADB commands seems to have bypassed the simlock on Pixel Fold

```

adb shell cmd appops set com.google.android.apps.work.oobconfig WAKE_LOCK deny

adb shell cmd appops set com.google.android.apps.work.oobconfig RUN_IN_BACKGROUND deny

adb shell cmd appops set com.google.android.apps.work.oobconfig RUN_ANY_IN_BACKGROUND deny

adb shell cmd appops set com.google.android.apps.work.oobconfig START_FOREGROUND deny

adb shell cmd appops set com.google.android.apps.work.oobconfig ACCESS_RESTRICTED_SETTINGS deny

```

[Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers] kingmarvin17:
Hi guys! Been trying for a week to install a custom rom on my XZ premium G8142. I've read a lot of guides, but still clueless on how to do it.

1. tried unlocking my bootloader. I've checked that my phone is allowed, enabled OEM unlocking and USB debugging. Got my code on Sony website and installed the 15 second ADB installer. Now here's where I'm so confuse about. when I try to enter this line "fastboot -i 0x0fce oem unlock" together with the code provided it says waiting for device. Did I miss a step? I'm thinking maybe I need to install sony drivers by going to device manager and doing legacy hardware but it wasn't included on the guide I'm following.

2. Lastly for future proof question where do I need to place the rom and twrp? on my phone right? because in my experience before I need to place these files on my sd card.

3. Does LDAC still functions even if I replace stock with a custom rom?

4. Also if there is newbie friendly guide please. I've been at it for a week and I've seen a lot of different guides which makes everything much more confusing.

Sorry if this question really sounds dumb but I just want to try out some custom roms for my XZ premium. Thanks

[Google Pixel 7 Pro] tip2tail:
Hello

I had successfully installed Magisk and a rooted Pixel 7 Pro. I then attempted to follow these instructions https://droidwin.com/install-run-32-bit-apps-on-pixel-7-pro/ but after flashing the patched init_boot.img the phone now bootloops.

I get the orange triangle warning that the bootloader is unlocked, the Google logo appears and then starts to animate before immediately going black and starting again 10 seconds later.

fastboot and adb do not detect the device attached.

I have tried following guides for bootloader access and for safe mode - nothing seems to work.

I REALLY hope someone can help me get out of this?

[Google Pixel 7 Pro] jcesarm71@gmail.com:
Press power and volume down that will put the phone into bootloader mode then just restore fo stock firmware
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] simplepinoi177:
I question a lot about that article....why does it have "sunfish" in one of the screenshots???

After reading and re-reading that article, I'm uncertain how the author is attempting to allow 32-bit app installations, but from what I can gather, it looks like he was attempting to have you install an early firmware image that supposedly still allowed 32-bit app installations, and then patching it to root. But that's probably where things are going wrong -- whether it is a very out-of-date image or the URLs he is linking is very out-of-date (the article is from November).

In any case, first, get your device right. I suggest you use Android Flash Tool. If you cannot load up the OS to get to the bootloader (through a command), I suggest you use the button combination to get into the bootloader/fastboot-mode. There, hopefully, your computer will detect your device (specifically fastboot) and you can run that tool or do whatever method you used when you first rooted.

Then, if you insist on it and still are interested, you can try this tried and true method from the thread below that enables 32-bit application installations that has been vetted here, on XDA.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AntiFakerBot:
Hi Team, Hi Guys,

i need help for something and i believe this can be solved:

The Game "Ambitions: Birth of a President" was one of my fav games. It is discontinued since 2020. Now i'm trying to solve the connection need for the ressource bundles. I found out, the Game could just use a simple file named "muta" for the connection info (somewere in CN). Now, if i change just this Infos of the 5 files via Notepad, could it be work? Anybody has any knowledge, if this could handle it out? I try it via a localhost Network Directory or via Google Drive, but have not find the solution for this ( .....if it works in this ways).

can any good guy look into it? Maybe someone who already knows something to do it .... what i should type in this files or how.

Or maybe is it possible to completly remove this request to any server address

i attach some Info too

I would be REALLY happy if someone can give me a help here :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Appreciative:
Having the original request and response from the game would help a lot.

One thing you can do is sniff the traffic using mitm proxy or similar (I use http canary but I'm rooted). See what the requests for the game look like. Then look in the decompiled apk to see what the game is expecting too. Take apart their parser.

Then you could use your pc, edit hosts or dns and change the gameserver to be localhost and host your own server for responses. Assuming it needs the responses at all. I don't know what the game did or does or if it was just a login screen you need to bypass or what

Decompile it with apktool and start using:

grep -ri "words_to_find" where -ri is recursive and ignore case. It will search all of the subdirectories smali also. Without looking into the apk, this could be as simple as a single change to bypass the login or as difficult as returning complex responses the parser is expecting, or worse
[Redmi Note 9 Questions & Answers] _the_savage_sausage_:
Hi !

it's my 5th day trying to make this damn phone work.

After 6 hours trying to unlock the bootloader and much more time to install recovery, reput IMEI via sp flash tool and installing multiple roms due to errors, now that I " understood " how to flash rom properly (pixel experience, unofficial bc official bootloops), I now can't send sms.

Everything else works fine : receiving sms, mms, data etc, everything is good.

When I try to send sms, it says " can't send message with Bouygues Telecom. Error 0 "

I tried my sim card on an other phone, it works fine, i tried an other sim card on my phone, same problem.

I contacted my network provider, they couldn't help me and esclalated the case to their superior in hirarchy (but I doubt they'll be of any help).

I then tried other roms, same problem.

I can't boot anymore on miui stock rom, idk why

so now i write this post in despair, i use sms on a daily basis

thank you a lot in advance for your help !!

Although firehose is working (and I can **** around, dump partitions etc), unlocking bootloader doesn't work - after unlocking and rebooting, it would just stay dead (no device on usb either). I didn't even try to write ramdisk with magisk

So I got it back to edl mode and restored bootloader - phone started booting again fine.

Hello everyone,

I hope you all are doing great...

It's annoying when I share something, or someone shares something from my group. Sadly, either no credits are mentioned, or the free content shared is locked behind a payment or a wall of ads. So people, here I am sharing on Reddit outside of my Telegram group...

I quote what I wrote (with slight adjustments - link to telegram post (Telegram Announcement Group - post 56):

You can extract and sideload them individually or use my Playstore - Geminiman WearOS Manager to import this zip as backup and restore the backup to install all watchfaces...

By spreading these watchfaces, all those who have locked the free content will not profit and will probably lose their followers. I don't have any hate or grudge against them. If a blogger made something, that blogger can do whatever with the content made, but they have no right over someone else's content. I don't mind if they decide not to credit me, but the least they can do is keep them free as I provided them. Bloggers can add support links or donation links like I do. I am sure there are people who appreciate their works and findings and would support them...

Your friendly neighborhood xda member,

Dante ♡
